The full moon is high, the night is getting deeper, and the candles are in full bloom in an elegant study, making the room brightly lit, and there is no feeling of night at all.

Dozens of books were stacked on the large desk, all but a few neatly stacked books, all of which were thrown aside at random, making the desk very cluttered.

On the chair next to the desk, a man in a demon mask was looking down and quickly flipping through the book in his hand.

Although this person's face was covered by a demon mask, his eyes were full of coldness and wisdom.

"Not this one. ”

With a slight sigh of impatience, the ghost-faced man casually tossed aside the book he had just flipped through, and immediately picked up another one from the neatly stacked books.

"Mr. Onijue, you're looking for me. ”

A man in a black cloak walked into the study and stood respectfully in front of the ghost-faced man, who was actually the mysterious man who appeared in the cave in Wanghuai Mountain when Chu Zhen died.

"Qin Feng, I want you to go to the four counties of Hexi. According to the texts, there should be a thousand-year-old purple blood crystal hidden there, bring it back to me. ”

As he spoke, the man named Ghost Jue took out a letter from the side and continued: "When you get there, give this letter to the Zhang family in Taicheng County, it contains what they need, and in exchange, they will find out the whereabouts of the purple blood crystal for you." ”

"The subordinates understand. ”

Qin Feng bowed down to take the letter, and then put it in his arms.

The ghost was about to open his mouth to explain something more, but suddenly he heard the anxious voice of the maid outside the door.

"Sir, no, Madame fainted suddenly. ”

"What!"

With an exclamation, the ghost didn't care about anything anymore, got up and walked quickly outside the house. At this moment, the eyes exposed under his mask no longer had the coldness that penetrated to the bone marrow in the past, but were replaced by tenderness rarely seen in him.

In the middle of the night, Xiong Zhenhai closed his eyes slightly, leaned back in his chair, and didn't know what he was thinking.

At this time, one of his henchmen walked in and softly shouted "Second Master".

Xiong Zhenhai slowly opened his eyes and asked softly, "Are you ready?"

"Back to the second master, the Xiong family's recent looting income, including the exit tax collected today, has all been cleaned up. The city gate has all been replaced by our people. ”

Xiong Zhenhai nodded with satisfaction, waved his hand, and said, "You wait at the back door first, and I'll arrive later." ”

"Yes. ”

After his subordinates respectfully exited the room, Xiong Zhenhai stood up and gently tugged at a corner of the bookshelf behind him.

With a "click", the bookshelves retreated to both sides, revealing a secret room.

As soon as Xiong Zhenhai walked into the secret room, the dazzling light suddenly shook his eyes.

This secret room is full of gold, silver and jewelry, these are all secretly hidden by Xiong Zhenhai with the power in his hands, especially the batch of jewels sent back by the Wind Fall Pavilion, you must know that in order to invite the Wind Fall Pavilion, the Xiong family has made a lot of money, and now the Wind Fall Pavilion has returned three times, this money is not a small amount, in order to hide from Xiong Zhenyue's eyes, Xiong Zhenhai took a lot of trouble to get this money into his own hands.

"As long as I have these, I can recruit a large number of masters for my use and establish my own power, so why do I need to live under people, hahahaha. ”

After laughing a few times, Xiong Zhenhai put all the treasures in the secret room into a wooden box, and then ordered someone to move them out carefully.

In the dim moonlight, a small group of people followed the shadows of the ground and walked quickly through the back garden of the bear mansion to the warehouse next to the back door.

According to Xiong Zhenhai's plan, they loaded this warehouse and his private treasures into the car, and they rushed all the way out of the city gate, leaving Yongsheng City, and starting a new stove outside.

But when he opened the gate of the backyard, the first thing Xiong Zhenhai saw was that several carriages stopped here abruptly, but none of the people guarding the carriage saw it.

"Something isn't right. ”

Before the screams fell, a large number of people rushed out from behind the wall with torches, surrounding Xiong Zhenhai and others.

"Second brother, it's so late, are you planning to go out? Why don't you say hello to me, who is the eldest brother, so that I can set up a banquet for you to practice. ”

With a slightly meaningful question, Xiong Zhenyue slowly walked out of the crowd.

And at this moment, it was the henchman who was following Xiong Zhenyue who had just sent a message to Xiong Zhenhai, obviously, all of Xiong Zhenhai's actions were in Xiong Zhenyue's eyes.

Glancing viciously at the traitor beside Xiong Zhenyue, Xiong Zhenhai said coldly: "It seems that you have been trying to eradicate me for a long time. ”

The subordinates who betrayed him have followed Xiong Zhenhai for many years, otherwise he would not be regarded as a confidant, but judging from the current situation, perhaps from the beginning, he was the eyeliner that Xiong Zhenyue planted beside him.

"Hehe, if you don't have two hearts, I won't come this far. Those of your subordinates have long been killed by me, and I advise you to restrain your hands and arrest them, so as not to hurt the brotherhood. ”

"Hahaha, affection? At this time, you are still talking to me about affection, and you are still pretending as always!"

Now, Xiong Zhenhai has finally seen his own brother clearly, and all along, Xiong Zhenyue has just pretended to be stupid.

Looking at Xiong Zhenhai, who was laughing loudly, Xiong Zhenyue's eyes suddenly turned cold, and his tense body suddenly shot out like a sharp sword off the string, and he suddenly shot down the killer without warning.

Xiong Zhenhai had already taken precautions, raised his eyebrows, and immediately waved his hand to block the fatal move, and then fought with Xiong Zhenyue.

"Kill. ”

Immediately afterwards, Xiong Zhenyue's subordinates also rushed to several henchmen around Xiong Zhenhai, and Xiong Zhenyue had already ordered these people who had two hearts, and none of them would be left.

Xiong Zhenhai only had a few henchmen left by his side, they were outnumbered, they were not opponents at all, and soon most of them were killed and wounded, showing defeat.

"Your strength?"

Although his subordinates died one after another, Xiong Zhenhai knew very well that the victory between him and Xiong Zhenyue was the key, and whoever of them was alive in the end would control the Xiong family. But to Xiong Zhenhai's surprise, Xiong Zhenyue's strength was improved to the third grade of Lingyuan at some point, one level higher than himself.

"Hehe, your second master of the Xiong family is so famous, if I want to kill you, how can I be unprepared. ”

Xiong Zhenyue sneered proudly, in order to prevent Xiong Zhenhai from being wary of himself, he specially begged for the elixir and forcibly suppressed the breath on his body, making others think that he had always stayed in the second grade of Lingyuan, and it was not until this moment that he revealed his true strength.

When it comes to the Lingyuan Realm, the difference in strength between the two adjacent products is very large, and few people can cross the realm limit and defeat the strong with the weak. Not long after, Xiong Zhenhai, the second grade of Lingyuan, was scarred and seriously injured.

"My good second brother, go and die. ”

Xiong Zhenyue took advantage of Xiong Zhenhai's unstable foothold and struck a blow, thinking of a move that would result in Xiong Zhenhai's life.

But at this moment, the corners of Xiong Zhenhai's mouth rose, revealing a sneer, which made Xiong Zhenyue feel bad suddenly.

"The name of my second master of the Xiong family is not called in vain. ”

I saw Xiong Zhenhai's arm raised, and a black crossbow arrow suddenly shot out from his cuff.

"Soul Crossbow. ”

Xiong Zhenyue screamed, but this time he thought he had the chance to win, and the empty door was exposed, and it was too late to hide.

The crossbow arrow pierced through the heart in an instant, and the toxins on the arrows also flowed quickly throughout the body with the blood, causing Xiong Zhenyue's entire body to turn a terrifying black and purple in the blink of an eye.

Xiong Zhenyue spit out two mouthfuls of black blood, he stared at Xiong Zhenhai unwillingly, and said with trembling lips: "You, you ......"

Only muttered two words, Xiong Zhenyue suddenly stopped his voice and fell to the ground and died.

"Hahaha, Xiong Zhenyue is dead, this Xiong family belongs to me, hahaha......"

Xiong Zhenyue was killed, and the rest of the people stopped fighting, and at this time, only two of Xiong Zhenhai's men were left who were seriously injured.

But just when the overall situation of the Xiong family was about to be decided, there was a sudden angry shout in the air.

"Then you can be buried with the Xiong family!"

With the voice of the voice, it was the Lu family led by Chu Zhen, Lu Jiu, and Lu Zheng.

"How did you get into town?"

The Lu family entered Yongsheng City unknowingly, which surprised Xiong Zhenhai, which was completely beyond his expectations.

It turned out that Lu Zheng arranged Neiying to take advantage of the rotation of the city gate guards to send out a code, and Chu Zhen and the others took the opportunity to sneak into Yongsheng City.

"Hmph, go down there and ask Hades. ”

Lu Jiuke was too lazy to talk nonsense with Xiong Zhenhai, so he teamed up with Jin Buwen to attack Xiong Zhenhai, so that he didn't even have a chance to escape.

The two sides fought again, but the balance of victory was completely tilted in favor of the Lu family. The Xiong family eliminated Xiong Zhenhai, and there were only about 20 people left, and the highest strength was only Fan Yuan Qipin, and they couldn't even beat Chu Zhen, not to mention a large number of Lu family masters.

However, after a while, only Xiong Zhenhai was left in the Xiong family, and Chu Zhenhai, who had drawn out his kung fu, also attacked Xiong Zhenhai.

"Lu Jiu, if you openly disobey the order of the county king, aren't you afraid that the county king will ask for guilt?"

Seeing that there was no escape, Xiong Zhenhai moved the king of the county out.

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm afraid I won't come. ”

After speaking, Lu Jiu's move added a little more ruthlessness.

Xiong Zhen was like ashes, and he had nothing to do.

"Fireflies change three times. ”

At this moment, Chu Zhen raised his hand, and three clusters of fireflies shot out quickly.

At the moment when he was close to Xiong Zhenhai, three fireflies instantly turned into thousands of sparks, completely surrounding Xiong Zhenhai.

"Fuck off. ”

Xiong Zhenhai shouted angrily, and Yuan Li burst out, scattering the surrounding sparks.

The sparks had just dispersed, but they reunited into three moths that shimmered with strange light and flew back upside down.

Xiong Zhenhai was shocked in his heart, and couldn't help but be distracted for a while.

At this moment, Lu Jiu slapped Xiong Zhenhai's heart with one palm, hitting him hard. Immediately, Jin Buwen struck with a sharp sword, and stabbed Xiong Zhenhai in the chest.

The three moths then flew in, and Xiong Zhenhai, who had been hit hard, was no longer able to dodge, so he could only let the moths pounce on him.

"Ahh

The flames suddenly ignited, and Xiong Zhenhai was wrapped in flames, falling to the ground and struggling.

In the blink of an eye, Xiong Zhenhai lay motionless on the ground, letting the flames burn him to ashes.
