Chapter Twenty-Three: The Covenant of the Young

The charcoal fire turned Qing Shao's face red, and as the flames trembled, his face looked a little distorted. The two spirit runes were engulfed and burned by the charcoal fire for a long time, but through the flames, it can be seen that the spirit runes were not burned by the charcoal fire.

There was a fat man standing at the door, Qing Shao didn't greet him in, he kept standing outside the door and looked at Qing Shao quietly.

"How's it going?" Qing Shao still didn't look up, stared at the brazier quietly and asked, "Did you try to find a problem?" ”

The chubby man replied, "No, I didn't expect this young man to be so strong-willed." ”

Qing Shao smiled: "That's why I don't kill him, because I see some special power in him." ”

As he spoke, Qing Shao raised his right hand and bit his index finger and dripped a few drops of blood into the brazier. The charcoal fire made a sound of "Boom-" sound, and the two spirit runes slowly changed. The Earth Talisman began to emit thick yellow smoke, and the Water Spirit Talisman emitted a lot of water vapor.

The charcoal fire gradually extinguished, and a layer of muddy water was produced in the brazier, until the two spirit runes no longer changed in any way, Qing Shao took them out of the brazier, and then took out a handkerchief to wipe the muddy water on the surface of the spirit rune.

After being burned by the fire, the color of the two fake spirit runes dimmed a lot, and the spiritual energy contained in the spirit runes was exhausted at this time. "It's a pity!" Qing Shao looked at the two fake spirit runes in his hand, and said with a little regret: "These two spirit runes contain a lot of spiritual energy, although they don't have the huge energy of the real spirit runes, but they can definitely be regarded as a magic weapon." If it weren't for the fact that I couldn't tell the real from the fake, I really couldn't bear to destroy them with my own blood. ”

Bai Chu also looked at the spirit rune in Qing Shao's hand, squinted his two small eyes and asked, "So the spirit rune is indeed fake?" It seems that they have colluded, so what should Wu Wei do, and what if someone comes to save him? ”

Qing Shao didn't show any worried look, he said to Bai Shu: "No one will come to save him, there is a miasma within a radius of ten miles, and no one can find here." ”

Bai Shu asked, "Why don't you kill Wu Wei?" I always felt that this young man would be a threat sooner or later! ”

Major Qing put away the two fake spirit talismans and said: "Wu Wei is very special, if it can be used by me, then when we fight against humans in the future, we will have one more hole card." ”

Bai Shu sighed: "If it were any other person, I would have been tortured by pain and lost my mind a long time ago." But this Wu Wei can still stay sober, and it is too difficult to subdue him. ”

Qing Shao didn't seem to be worried: "This shows that Wu Wei has the value of subduing, Mr. Bai Chop, have you heard of Boiling Eagle?" No matter how unruly the eagle is, it will be tamed after unbearable suffering, and the more difficult it is to tame, the stronger the eagle will be. What we have is time, and I am bound to get the card of Wu Wei. ”

After a day and a night of searching, the Taoist priests of Qinglu Temple did not find any clues related to Wu Wei, and the Blue Sky Group also sent a large number of people, but they also did not find Wu Wei's whereabouts.

The sun rose again, Lan Muxue sat in the living room with red eyes, she didn't sleep all night, and all the people sent out to find Wu Wei had to report to her first when they came back. But after waiting all night, Lan Muxue didn't wait for any valuable clues.

Lan Mingyu was afraid that Lan Muxue would be in danger at home, so he arranged a large number of security personnel at Lan Muxue's residence, one was to protect her safety, and the other was afraid that she would run out of the house alone to find Wu Wei.

Lan Mingyu's side was also in a hurry, after the three small family forces that supported him defected, last night the Fengyun Society and the Head Wolf Gang attacked the other three small family forces that supported Lan Mingyu in Guancheng.

After the death of Murong Lingxiao, the leader of the Head Wolf Gang, his younger brother Murong Linghan took over as the gang leader. This Murong Linghan was even more cunning and treacherous than his brother, and even more ruthless. This time, the three family forces in Guancheng were attacked, all of which were planned by Murong Linghan.

These three families have always been loyal to the Lan family, helping Lan Mingyu control the power position of the Blue Sky Group in Guancheng. Just last night, the heads of the three families were killed and injured two and one was injured, and they were all attacked at the door of their own homes, and this sudden change made the position of the Blue Sky Group in Guancheng precarious.

Guancheng is not much smaller than Lucheng, Blue Sky Group has twelve subsidiaries in Guancheng, and these twelve subsidiaries represent twelve family forces. Lan Mingyu's power can override all the local forces in Guancheng, all because of the support of the twelve families in Guancheng. Now that the three most important families have been dealt a fatal blow, plus the two families who defected to Guancheng some time ago, Lan Mingyu's power in Guancheng is equivalent to losing half.

At this time, Lan Mingyu was eager to dismantle Feng Zhenhao, but Feng Zhenhao was now cowering in Fengyun Manor, and Lan Mingyu had no chance to start. However, Lan Mingyu also knew that it was impossible for a single Fengyun Society to suddenly become so powerful, and it was likely that there was a Dao force standing behind Feng Zhenhao.

Lan Mingyu needs to find evidence, once he finds evidence that Fengyun will collude with Lu Dao, then he will have the support of all the forces in Lu City, including Qinglu Guan. At that time, Lan Mingyu will be able to personally lead people into Fengyun Manor and fulfill his wish to dismantle Feng Zhenhao.

At the same time that Lan Mingyu was calculating Feng Zhenhao, Feng Zhenhao was also playing his mind in Fengyun Manor. robbed three companies of the Blue Sky Group, and the family behind these three companies became his supporters at this time. Coupled with the blow to the other three families in Guancheng last night, Feng Zhenhao's power in Guancheng at this time has surpassed Lan Mingyu. It would be too difficult to deal a fatal blow directly to Lan Mingyu in Lucheng, but he could start from around Lucheng first and eat away at the Blue Sky Group step by step.

Feng Zhenhao also didn't know how Liu Ping managed to rebel against the three subsidiaries of Blue Sky Group overnight. But he wanted Liu Ping to help him snatch Lan Mingyu's other family supporters again, but Liu Ping refused.

Feng Zhenhao knew that there was a price to pay for working with those guys. They need to use the power of the Fengyun Society to deal with Lan Mingyu, and more importantly, after helping Feng Zhenhao defeat Lan Mingyu, they also need him to hand over the fire charm. Feng Zhenhao is not a fool, he and Lan Mingyu both want to control Lucheng, and the forces behind Liu Ping also want to rule Lucheng. I don't know what magic Lucheng has that can make everyone covet this place, but Feng Zhenhao has already made his own calculations in his heart.

The power of the spirit rune can restrain the forces behind Liu Ping, and Liu Ping's forces have been hiding in the shadows, indicating that their strength is not strong at this time. As long as Feng Zhenhao doesn't hand over the flaming talisman, he has the capital to deal with Liu Ping and them, and even if Liu Ping wants to attack Fengyun after eliminating the Blue Sky Group, he doesn't have to be afraid.

Liu Ping said that the purpose of their obtaining the spirit rune was to destroy the spirit rune, was it because they couldn't control the power of the spirit rune? Feng Zhenhao thought that as long as he didn't wake up the Ancestral Lu, then there was no need for him to be afraid of their power. It is okay to destroy the two spirit runes of the Lan family, the five spirit runes correspond to the power of the five elements, the water element rune of the Lan family can restrain his fire talisman, as long as the water yuan rune is destroyed, he does not have to be afraid of the restraint of the spirit rune.

The Jin Gang Fu was guarded by the Qinglu Temple, and Liu Ping and they didn't dare to start. Feng Zhenhao used the spirit rune to make a deal with Liu Ping and them, so they wouldn't have the idea of fighting the fire talisman for the time being. I don't know why Liu Ping and the others didn't attack the Hu family's spirit runes, but judging from the current situation, if Liu Ping and they won the two spirit runes of the Lan family, it would be a matter of time before they attacked the Hu family's wood spirit runes.

Although the Hu family is the weakest of the three major forces, they have a spirit rune in their hands after all, and Feng Zhenhao plans to secretly pull Hu Sanjia over, so that he will be more sure to deal with Liu Ping and them when he turns his face in the future.

In the ancestral hall of the Hu family, Hu Tianci was angry with his grandfather Hu Sanjia. After he was beaten by Wu Wei that day, he went home and told his grandfather, originally wanting his grandfather to stand up for him. But instead of helping him as usual, Hu Sanjia punished him for thinking about it in the ancestral hall, and forbade him to go out again for three days.

Hu Sanjia also called Lan Mingyu in front of Hu Tianci, and on the phone, Hu Sanjia took the initiative to apologize to Lan Mingyu, saying that he had no way to discipline him, and asked Lan Mingyu not to take it to heart. Lan Mingyu was also very polite, saying that it was all a fight between children, so as not to affect the relationship between the two families.

When did grandpa and the Lan family become so close? Hu Tianci couldn't figure it out, it was clear that the Lan family was in an eventful time now, the two families were fighting so fiercely in the past, and now it was a good opportunity to fight against the Lan family, but grandpa was more respectful to Lan Mingyu.

At noon, Feng Zhenhai, the vice president of the Fengyun Society, who is also Feng Zhenhao's younger brother, came to Hu's house to visit Hu Sanjia. Hu Sanjia was very enthusiastic about Feng Zhenhai, and the two had a secret meeting in Hu Sanjia's living room for more than three hours. In the end, when Feng Zhenhai left, Hu Sanjia personally sent Feng Zhenhai out of the gate of Hu's house.

In the evening, Qian Xiangqian, the general counsel of Blue Sky Group, also came to visit Hu Sanjia, and Hu Sanjia was still very enthusiastic. The two talked secretly for about two hours, and Hu Sanjia was even more full of spring when he sent the money forward.

On the same day, the Blue Sky Group and the Fengyun Society threw an olive branch to the Hu family at the same time, and the relationship between the three major forces in Lucheng suddenly became delicate.

In the past, the Hu family was the weakest of the three major forces, and the Blue Sky Group and Fengyun Society were suppressing the Hu family in every aspect. Now the struggle between the two major forces has entered a white-hot stage in order to compete for absolute control of Lucheng. The Hu family, as a third party who has been watching from the sidelines, has now become the object of their scramble.

However, Hu Sanjia is an old fox, and in the face of today's overtures of the two families, he did not offend anyone, and at the same time did not give a clear answer to either party. He is still waiting, and it is better to wait until both sides are defeated, or one of the sides has a clear advantage, and then make a decision to ensure that the interests of the Hu family in this struggle are maximized.

Hu Sanjia can see that there should be the support of other forces behind the Fengyun Society, and this force is likely to be the Ludao force that has recently emerged. Therefore, Fengyunhui may be a thief ship, and Hu Sanjia will never take risks if he does not find out the situation. Although the Blue Sky Group has suffered frequent blows, it must be strong, and it is relatively close to Qingluguan, even if Feng Zhenhao has the support of the Lu Dao or the Demon Clan, he may not be able to bring down Lan Mingyu.

Everyone has hole cards, and Hu Sanjia also has them. The Hu family is the only one who has signed a contract with the demon clan, and they have the protection of the fox demon. Moreover, the fox demon of the Hu family is different from the ordinary demon clan, and the fox demon that guards the Hu family is a group of spiritual powers that can be cultivated with peace of mind, just like a guardian spirit. They have no physical body, and they rely on the ranking of the Hu family to worship and practice, and they can attach themselves to the Hu family at a critical moment, giving them huge energy.

That day, the reason why Hu Tianci was able to get out of Wu You's hands was because he was helped by the spirit of the fox demon who guarded him.

Moreover, the huge wood aura contained in the Hu family's wood spirit rune can just help the fox demon's cultivation, and now the fox demon spirits enshrined by the Hu family have absorbed a lot of power in the wood spirit rune. Therefore, whether it is the Lu Dao Demon Clan or the power of the human race, it is difficult to threaten the descendants of the Hu family.

On Lucheng's side, all the forces are busy intriguing, and Qinglu Guan is also worried about Wu and has no time to take care of anything else.

Almost all the Taoist priests of the Qinglu Temple have been dispatched, and it has been two days, not only have they not found any clues about Wu Wei, but they have not even found a single one of the remnants of the human or demon clan. With Wu Wei's disappearance, it seems that the forces of the Dao have also sunk into hiding. Liu Yue was worried at this time, and the people and demon clans who were causing trouble everywhere a few days ago now seemed to have disappeared out of thin air. He knew that being too calm was not a good thing, it could only mean that the Dao forces had begun to have a new premeditation.

Lying in the dark basement, Wu Wei was endlessly enduring the torture of Gu poison, he didn't know what was happening outside now, and he didn't know that so many people were busy looking for him at this time.

Every once in a while, Qing Shao would come to see him and give him a pill so that he could speak briefly. Qing Shao told Wu Wei that he had seen through the two spirit runes that were fake, and the torture of Wu Wei in the past few days was a punishment for him.

At the same time, Qing Shao also showed him a contract. Qing Shao said that as long as Wu was willing to complete the contract ceremony, Qing Shao could detoxify him and free him from endless pain. And the price of signing the contract is that Wu Wei will do things for Qing Shao in the future, and he will always be Qing Shao's follower.
