Chapter 748: He's a Demon!
Damn it!
Ning Xiaotian then remembered that there was another Xiahou Cangming, just Xiahou Cangming was not enough to be afraid, whether it was a powerful official position or a master's combat power, he was a step stronger than the Xiahou family.
On the other hand, if it was just one Xiang Long, even if he still had some of his former subordinates to follow, he would still be lonely compared to him.
But...... If these two parties had joined forces, the situation would have been completely different!
The disadvantage of the Xiang family is that there are too few people, and the advantage is that there are enough top masters, and the situation of the Xiahou family is just the opposite, once they join forces, they will inevitably make up for each other's shortcomings, and their strength is enough to match Ning Xiaotian, and they are even faintly above him, so the situation becomes delicate.
"Your Majesty has arrived!"
Just when the three parties formed a confrontation and the situation was ready to be launched, a large group of gold-armored soldiers would come guarding a man.
The man looked to be in his forties, wearing a golden dragon robe, with a burly figure, square forehead and cheeks, thick eyebrows and big eyes, giving people a feeling of not being angry and arrogant.
He is the current emperor of the Tianqi Kingdom, and he is also the current patriarch of the Feng clan's royal family, the largest family in the Tianqi Kingdom.
"Participate in Your Majesty!"
"Long live my emperor!"
The people who watched the excitement around knelt on the ground, but there were also many who did not kneel, and bowed to the emperor, which was not absolute in the immortal martial arts world.
For example, the high-level people of the three parties, all of them are high-ranking and powerful people, with heavy troops and strong family power, even if they see the emperor, they don't have to pay a big salute.
"Three Aiqing, why is this?" Feng Xuanao was slightly displeased.
"Your Majesty!"
Ning Xiaotian hurriedly explained the truth of the matter, but there was obviously an element of adding fuel and vinegar to it, he said that he was a law-abiding law enforcer, and the Xiang family and the Xiahou family were clearly criminals who ignored the law and used their power to forcibly obstruct him from reporting law enforcement.
As the king of a country, you not only need the strength to match it, but also the wisdom that is superior to others. Especially for these big families with great power, the best way is not to use power to forcibly suppress it, which will only lead to greater trouble, but to maneuver around it.
"General Ning is really good at reversing black and white!"
Xiahou Cangming smiled coldly, and said to Feng Xuanao: "Your Majesty, Feng Ling is a friend of my great-grandson Xiahou Lie, my great-grandson finally came to the imperial capital and came to visit Weichen with his friends, but he was forcibly stopped without thinking about it, saying that he suspected Feng Ling of collaborating with the enemy and treason...... If General Ning did this, wouldn't he suspect my Xiahou family? My Xiahou family has been loyal from generation to generation, although I don't say what I have done, but it's not just anyone who can be framed! ”
"Xiahou Lao'er, what nonsense are you talking about with this old man surnamed Ning?"
Different from Xiahou Cangming's character, Xiang Long directly raised his eyebrows, pointed at Ning Xiaotian and shouted: "The surname is Ning, don't think that my Xiang family is lonely, you can do whatever you want." If you dare to do a black hand to the descendants of my Xiang family, Lao Tzu will dare to kill your whole family, don't believe you! ”
Without waiting for Ning Xiaotian to get mad, he smiled: "That's right!" There are no one in my Xiang family now, you have a lot of Ning family, right? Lao Tzu will not be stupid enough to fight with you head-on, as long as Lao Tzu sees that there are people in your Ning family who are alone, and kill one when he sees one, I see how many people in your Ning family are enough for Lao Tzu to kill! ”
"Xiang Aiqing, don't talk nonsense!"
Feng Xuanao was secretly happy in his heart, as the king of a country, he must know the art of the emperor, and he must know how to balance the strength of the major courtiers, the reason why the Tianqi Kingdom made a three-prince power is to balance, Xiang Long and Ning Xiaotian's opposition is obviously in his mind, but the surface work still has to be done, after scolding Xiang Long here, he turned his gaze to Ning Xiaotian again: "Ning Aiqing, Gu Zhilu said that you and Xiang Aiqing have some misunderstandings, and there is something wrong with both sides of this matter." However, Ning Aiqing wants to say that the descendants of the Xiang family collaborate with the enemy and commit treason, which is really a bit too much, and in the opinion of Lonely, this matter will be stopped, and it is not allowed to be mentioned again in the future. ”
After saying this, he glanced at Qin Yan, nodded and smiled.
In Feng Xuanao's view, this is just a change in the power structure of the imperial courtiers, and this young man is just an introduction to the change of power that triggers the change of the pattern, and it is not worth mentioning at all. Don't you know that this 'little person', who just glanced at it and almost disappeared in his memory, will become a hot existence in the Tianqi Kingdom and even the entire Immortal Martial Arts World in the near future, and will be feared by countless people.
Of course, these are all in the future.
All in all, the confrontation at the gate of the city finally ended with the emperor being unable to come in person, and everyone went back to their own homes to do their own things.
"Brother, I'll go back first, and we'll get together when I'm done." Xiahou Lie, who was standing beside Xiahou Cangming, showed a smile towards Qin Yan.
"Big brother, come to the house to play when you have time." Xiahou Ying blinked.
Brothers?
Eldest brother?
If it weren't for the presence of so many people, Xiahou Cangming would not have given the father and son a violent beating: the father calls Qin Yan brother, and the son calls Qin Yan eldest brother, isn't this special generation all messed up?
"Brother Xiahou, thank you today, I have a chance to have a drink." Xiang Long no longer had the rudeness he used to be, and his eyes flashed with shrewdness.
"Brother Xiang has an order, how dare the younger brother disobey?" Xiahou Cangming knew what it meant.
Today, the two families came over together and stood on Qin Yan's side together, and both of them knew the hidden secrets as the parties involved.
The Xiang family's mansion in the imperial capital twelve years ago was originally occupied by the new general of the protector, but with Xiang Long's return, the house was taken back and renovated.
No way!
Xiang Long was determined to go back to the mansion, claiming that this was the Xiang family's thing, and in the end, Feng Xuanao could only come down, and Leng asked the current general to move out.
This guy is definitely notorious, and the entire empire dares to confront him, except for Ning Xiaotian, there are only people from the Taishi Mansion of the Prison Country.
Qin Yan followed Xiang Long and his entourage back to the Protector General's Mansion, and after leaving everyone, including Xue Lan, in the front yard, the old and the young went to the backyard study.
Door.
Close the door.
"You kid, you just came over and caused trouble for me, are you sure that I will save you if you eat?" Xiang Long glared at him angrily.
"Hey...... You're my grandfather, you can't watch me being bullied by outsiders, right? If this is said, what is the prestige of the Xiang family? ”
"Okay, okay, don't talk about these haves or not, why didn't the red leaves come together?"
"She's staying in Skyfire City."
"You ......"
Xiang Long was stunned for a moment, he just heard that Qin Yan was intercepted at the city gate, he thought that Qin Yan and Hongye came to visit him, but he didn't expect Qin Yan to come alone: "What's the matter, let's talk about it." ”
Immediately, Qin Yan traced Ji Lu in detail and explained it in detail, and Xiang Long was dumbfounded when he heard it.
The next moment!
Xiang Long's figure suddenly flashed, not giving Qin Yan a chance to resist at all, and his rough big hand pinched his neck, completely sealing his Yuan Force by the way.
"That kind of decoction that boosts strength, can it be mass-produced?" Xiang Long said fiercely.
"Yes." Qin Yan was a little out of breath.
"What do you think I should do to you?"
"Cooperate with me, and then I will give the Xiang family an unprecedented prosperity."
"Why don't you hand over the formula, my Xiang family is dominant, and even the entire Immortal Martial Realm?" Xiang Long's face loomed with murderous intent looming.
"Because ......"
Qin Yan was pinched by the neck, but his expression was not a little panicked: "I went to Cloud City and saw a person named Yun Luoyue, she is the current city lord of Cloud City, and at the same time, she ...... She was pregnant with my child, and her nickname was Yun Ji. ”
Ga!
Xiang Long only felt that his heart was instantly constricted, Yun Luoyue was Yun Ji, she was now the lord of Cloud City, and the key was that she was pregnant with Qin Yan's child.
What does this mean?
If he had any misdeeds against Qin Yan, with the strength of Cloud City, let alone the current Xiang family, even if the Xiang family was ten times stronger in its heyday twelve years ago, it would be torn to pieces in an instant, right?
Cloud City ......
That is a transcendent existence that even the three major empires are willing to provoke, how can he be able to compete with just one Xiang Long?
"That's why you think you don't, or don't dare to do it?" Xiang Long frowned and let go of the hand that was holding Qin Yan's neck.
"No, it's the last step of last resort."
Qin Yan touched his aching neck and chuckled: "Actually, I'm eighty percent sure, even if there is no such factor, Grandpa Tai will not do anything to me." Apparently I guessed right, didn't I? In fact, Grandpa Tai has long known that I have those decoction recipes, but I didn't expect to be able to make them on a large scale. But even so, didn't Grandpa still marry Momiji to me? ”
"You kid...... I wanted to pretend to it, but I didn't expect you to ...... it a long time ago."
Xiang Long smiled helplessly and sighed softly: "You're right, I have trusted you since the day I married Hongye to you." I believe that I will not look at the wrong person, and I also believe that once you become strong, you will not ignore the Xiang family...... It's just that I'm curious, since you have the relationship of Cloud City, why don't you choose to let Cloud City protect you? With the protection of Cloud City, no one in this world dares to provoke you. ”
"She can't protect herself now, and my relationship with her can't be known to other people in Cloud City, otherwise it will be harmful to her and a disaster for me."
"I see......"
Although Qin Yan didn't explain it in detail, Xiang Long faintly guessed something: "It's one thing for you to be good friends with Xiahou Lie, but Xiahou Cangming will never clash head-on with Ning Xiaotian's old puppet for Xiahou Lie's friend, could it be that the Xiahou family also knows this secret?" ”
"Sure enough, I can't hide it from my grandfather." Qin Yan said with a smile.
"Don't you think that's too risky?" Xiang Long frowned.
"The human heart is greedy, and the human nature is selfish."
Qin Yan smiled and said, "If it were just me, the Xiahou family might have done something bad, but with the relationship between Grandpa Tai, they wouldn't dare to mess around." Even if you can't mess around, the only way is to follow the Xiang family and me, tied to the chariot of the same interests, and there is no choice. ”
After listening to Qin Yan's words, Xiang Long was shocked and sighed in his heart, this kid is simply a demon!
He used the behemoth of Yuncheng as a bargaining chip to deter himself, and then he used himself as a bargaining chip to deter the Xiahou family, so that both the Xiang family and the Xiahou family would become powerful weapons to escort him. Only in this way can his plan, which is easily coveted by countless people, and even make him besieged by countless strong and powerful forces, have the possibility of being implemented - what is his brain made of?
