When Ye Haotian was chasing the murderer, an inconspicuous carriage stopped in front of Han Zhongchuan's mansion, the door opened, and Zhuang Yusheng, who was dressed in an ordinary robe, walked out of the carriage.

The soldier guarding the gate did not enter the courtyard and led him directly to the backyard.

In Han Zhongtian's study, Zhuang Yusheng met the commander of the city defense army who controlled most of Anyang City.

"Yusheng, why are you here? The ranking tournament is over?

Seeing Zhuang Yusheng, Han Zhongtian, who was sitting behind the table, hurriedly got up and greeted him with a smile on his face.

"There was a little bit of an accident. ”

Zhuang Yusheng lifted the cyan cloth hat covering his head, and there was not the slightest joy on his face.

"How?"

Han Zhongtian paused for a moment, "Didn't Baichuan get the first place?"

"Yes. ”

Zhuang Yusheng nodded: "Not only did he not get the first place, but he was also seriously injured, and now he is being treated by the priest in the temple, the situation is not very optimistic, if it wasn't for my timely action, my life would not have been saved." ”

"How is that possible?"

Han Zhongtian's face changed, Han Baichuan is his youngest son, and his amazing cultivation talent has always been his capital to brag and show off among his colleagues, and he has always felt that the top spot in this ranking competition belongs to his son, this kind of self-confidence not only comes from Han Baichuan's strength but also from Zhuang Yusheng's guarantee, and now that he heard that Han Baichuan actually lost, he thought that he had heard it wrong.

"Then who is the number one and who injured him?"

Zhuang Yusheng smiled bitterly and said, "It's Ye Haotian, it's the Ye Haotian you want to get rid of." ”

Han Zhongtian was stunned for a moment, and looked at Zhuang Yusheng with disbelief.

"How could it be him! Didn't you say that he is not Baichuan's opponent at all, in this ranking match, can you definitely set up a game to kill him? How can he be the number one!"

One night a few days ago, a middle-aged cultivator entered the temple and walked into a magnificent side hall, and after half an hour of detailed discussions, he reached an unknown agreement with the owner of this side hall, and this was the killing game in the ranking match.

"I didn't expect this to be the result. ”

Zhuang Yusheng sighed and told Han Zhongtian all the details of what happened in the ranking tournament as they were.

Han Zhongtian listened quietly, and at first there was a disdainful sneer on his face, but the more he listened, the more frightened he became, especially when he heard that Ye Haotian actually broke the mirror on the spot and almost killed Han Baichuan, his face suddenly changed.

“...... This Ye Haotian is hidden too deeply, even I am blinded, listen to my advice, you and his little festival will pass like this, this is the promise I made to him, okay?"

After a few words of emotion, Zhuang Yusheng said his thoughts.

Han Zhongtian didn't respond, just looked at the night outside the window in distraction.

"I know you're not reconciled, but now, only peace is the best choice. ”

Zhuang Yusheng continued to persuade: "Ye Haotian's performance in the ranking competition is too dazzling, compared to the quicksand of the year, it has now attracted the attention of the major hall masters and those big people, presumably it will not take a few days for the Pope to see him in person, and if he continues to fight like this, the result will only be two defeats and injuries, and it will not be beneficial to the Han family or our future great cause." ”

"If you want to calm things down, I'm afraid it's not so easy. ”

Han Zhongtian's gaze fell on the starry sky in the distance, and there was a cold chill in his voice.

"Before dusk today, I sent someone to the rich manor in the south of the city and killed his barbarian female guard. ”

Zhuang Yusheng frowned.

"But you don't have to worry, I'm looking for a pit viper, and the ones who shot are all our top professional assassins in Dongyi, and they won't leave any clues, which should be a small lesson to Ye Haotian, as for his people, I still have to kill them." ”

"Zhongtian, can't you listen to what I just said? Don't lose a big ...... because of a small thing?"

"Enough!"

Han Zhongtian suddenly roared: "At the auction, I was humiliated by Ye Haotian and Hera in front of so many people, do you know how others laugh at me behind my back? If I don't kill Ye Haotian, how can I swallow this evil breath! It's you, who repeatedly assured Ye Haotian that he would definitely not survive today, but what was the result? Not only did he do well, but he also beat Baichuan to a serious injury, and now he actually came to persuade me to calm down, and our Han family's face has been lost to you!"

Zhuang Yusheng forcibly suppressed the excitement in his heart and said: "Don't forget our purpose of infiltrating the Great Xia Kingdom, the head of the family asked you to try to seize the control of the city defense army of Anyang City, for the sake of the great cause in two years, you don't want to make extraneous branches." ”

"I'm the deputy commander of the Anyang City garrison, if I can't even pack up a kid who is less than twenty years old, what's the point of seizing the military power?" Han Zhongtian snorted disapprerovingly.

"If you insist on going your own way, you are going against the temple, don't you think about the consequences of doing so?" Zhuang Yu was anxious.

"Just because I've thought about it, Ye Hao's genius must be killed!"

Without waiting for Zhuang Yusheng to speak, Han Zhongtian continued: "According to what you just said, if there is no accident, it will not take a few years for Ye Haotian to grow into a powerhouse in the famous cultivation world, and then it will become a stumbling block on the way for the family master to subvert Great Xia, such a genius must be nip in the bud, don't you think it should be?"

Zhuang Yusheng was stunned.

Han Zhongtian sneered twice, patted Zhuang Yusheng's shoulder, and said, "Third brother, the greater Ye Haotian's fame, the greater the credit for killing him, you have to seize this opportunity." ”

"You're asking me to do it?"

Zhuang Yusheng was surprised.

"Yes, apart from you, do you think there is a more suitable candidate? Six realms to four realms, at most one sword, who would have thought that Ye Haotian would die in the hands of the lord of the hall?"

"Impossible!" Zhuang Yusheng suddenly thought of something, and shook his head violently.

"How?"

Han Zhongtian's eyes narrowed.

"This ranking tournament is presided over by me, according to the rules of the temple, I can do anything in the competition without being held responsible, so I promise you that Ye Haotian will definitely not survive today, but there is one thing you don't know, I dare to blatantly target Ye Haotian and let him fight against six strong men in a row, not only to deal with him, but also because I received instructions from a certain big man...... That's probably what the Pope meant. ”

"Pope?".

Han Zhongtian's squinted eyes widened suddenly.

Zhuang Yusheng nodded and said: "The temple is strictly hierarchical, although I sit in the seat of the deputy hall master, it seems that I am only one step away from the hall master, but the distance of this step is very different, and I don't even have the qualifications to listen to the core decisions in the hall." The messenger was an inner temple priest, who came to my side hall with an oracle decree and asked me to add some difficulty to Ye Haotian's challenge, so I dared to target him without any scruples. ”
