Chapter 21: The Conspiracy of Yin
At the headquarters of the Wolf Tooth Adventure Group, groups of three or five are drinking and talking nonsense everywhere, which seems to be casual, but in fact, it implies a mystery. I saw that the distance between each place would not exceed ten zhang, and if you look closely, you will find that among the people in each place, there is always one who will inadvertently leave or right, it seems that the development of the Wolf Tooth Adventure Group into the first adventure group of Red Leaf City is not by luck.
In the conference hall, the night wolf recalled the scene of the auction during the day, his face was gloomy and terrible, he originally thought that a superb treasure was not a matter of being captured, but he didn't expect that the three major families were really not simple, the gap between himself and them was not a star and a half, or I don't know if the Xia family already knew the secret of the Red Feather Sword, if it did, it would be difficult to do things! The more the Night Blue Wolf thought about it, the more helpless he became, he had to take action as soon as possible, otherwise if the Xia family really knew the secret of the Red Feather Sword, it would be too late to say anything.
"Someone," the night wolf began.
A leader-like person came in from outside the door and asked, "Commander, I don't know what is the matter with my subordinates?"
"Go and call Mr. Ye, I have something important to discuss. The night wolf said to the visitor.
"Yes, my subordinates will go and inform Mr. Ye. With that, the man withdrew from the chamber.
The night wolf sat in a chair, his eyes constantly shining with cold light, sometimes showing a fierce and fierce look. Like a vicious wolf who wants to choose people to devour, it is obvious that the night wolf is brewing some kind of conspiracy at this moment.
It didn't take long to hear an old and feminine voice from outside the door, "Leader, can Ye come in?"
The night wolf came back to his senses and said, "Mr. Ye, come in!"
At the door, an old man, slightly emaciated and somewhat hunchbacked, with a pale beard, walked in, his steps a little staggering. This person's appearance is extremely ugly, a pair of small inverted triangular eyes squinted obliquely, and a pair of seemingly cloudy eyes appear from time to time with a series of evil lights. The character is even more vicious and vicious, and the people in the wolf tooth group have given him a nickname - "wolf owl", which shows his character.
"Mr. Ye, please forgive me for being presumptuous in the middle of the night!" "The Night Blue Wolf said politely, as the leader of the Wolf Tooth Adventure Group, the Night Blue Wolf was very jealous of Ye Xiao, not that Ye Xiao's cultivation was much better than him, but Ye Xiao's intrigues and tricks made this head who licked blood from the knife edge shudder.
The head of the regiment laughed, thanks to the head of the regiment for taking in the remnants, Ye was grateful. Ye Xiao paused slightly and continued: "I don't know what the head of the regiment is calling down late at night?"
"Okay, since that's the case, I'll just say it directly, presumably Mr. Ye has also heard about the auction of the auction house in the daytime, Mr. Ye has always been knowledgeable, I don't know if he knows the Red Feather Sword?"
"Akabane Sword? Later, it was only after the auction that I had to know that the Akabane Sword was the final finale of the auction house in the world. I don't know about the rest!" Ye Xiao thought for a while and said.
After hearing what Ye Xiao said, the night blue wolf frowned slightly, and said after pondering for a while: "Regarding the Red Feather Sword, although it is a superb treasure, there are some places that are comparable to the lower grade spirit stage. The head of this regiment originally thought that it would be easy to get it, but for some reason, the Xia family actually slapped the red feather sword away with a horizontal bar. In the past, let alone a superb treasure, even two or three of my wolf tooth adventure group didn't care, but now it's different, the current Red Night Deep Forest periphery can no longer meet the needs of the major adventure groups, and they can only explore deeper. ”
Night Blue Wolf glanced at Ye Xiao and continued: "Some time ago, we organized people to go to the depths to investigate, and in the end, the lost troops were defeated and returned, which damaged the reputation of our Wolf Tooth Adventure Group, and the most important thing is that the people at that time did not go far at all, and they encountered the low-level spirit beast Red Demon Beast and was unilaterally slaughtered, which shows that the depths of the Red Leaf Forest are extremely dangerous, if they do not strengthen their own strength, the Wolf Tooth Adventure Group will not be able to gain a foothold in Red Leaf City at all." ”
"What the head of the regiment said is very true, I don't know how the head of the regiment is planning?" Ye Xiao asked cautiously.
"I want you to find a way to get the Red Feather Sword from the Xia family!" the night wolf stared at Ye Xiao with a torch in his eyes and said word by word.
"This"
"Why, can't you do it?" said the Night Wolf coldly.
Ye Xiao secretly said badly, and immediately said: " No, the Red Feather Sword can be obtained at your fingertips as long as you use some tricks, but your subordinates have also heard that the Xia family spent eight million gold coins to auction it, if it is suddenly lost, the Xia family will definitely be furious, and when the time comes, it will definitely go to the search, and Red Leaf City can compete with the Xia family only the remaining two families, the Xu family does not mention that the remaining only Wang family is for the time being, with the power of the Xia family, it will soon be able to find out that it is not the Wang family, if the Xia family knows that it was not done by the Wang family, the Xia family will definitely suspect the adventure group in Red Leaf City, and then we will be in dangerYe Xiao hurriedly said all his analysis.
"Well, what Mr. Ye said is not unreasonable, so the reason why I invited Mr. so late is that I hope Mr. can think of a foolproof solution. Even if we can get the Red Feather Sword, it will not arouse the Xia family's suspicion of us. For example, marrying the Wang family, or the city lord of Red Leaf City. After speaking, the night wolf exuded a cruel look in his eyes and stared at Ye Xiao tightly.
Ye Xiao just heard the words of the night wolf, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but when he heard it, his heart rose again. He couldn't help but stir up huge waves in his heart, he didn't expect that the Night Blue Wolf would dare to be so bold for the Red Feather Sword, he couldn't help but think that the Red Feather Sword was definitely not as simple as the Night Blue Wolf said, there must be an inside story that he didn't know, but he couldn't inquire, otherwise he would definitely not live for too long.
"Well, sir, do you have a good plan?" asked the night wolf.
Ye Xiao thought for a while and said, "Since the head of the regiment wants to get the Red Feather Sword, it's not that there is no way. Ye Xiao glanced at the night wolf, and saw the night wolf nodding, so he continued: "First of all, we must have an important bargaining chip in our hands that can make the Xia family surrender, and the genius of the Xia family, Xia Ye, will be the time to hunt in Red Leaf City in a short time, and then we can pretend to be the city lord in the depths of the Red Leaf Forest in advance, and wait for the opportunity to kidnap Xia Ye after the hunt starts, and threaten the Xia family to hand over the Red Feather Sword and exchange the sword for people." At that time, I think the Xia family will definitely not ignore Xia Ye's safety, so that we can get the Red Feather Sword without much effort. At the same time, just in case, we also have to be prepared to leave Red Leaf City, once the Xia family finds out, the Wolf Tooth Adventure Group will not only have to face the wrath of the Xia family, but also endure the pursuit of the city lord. As for leaving Red Leaf City, the forces of the Xia family don't have to care too much, only by completely escaping from the city lord's pursuit can the wolf tooth adventure group turn the corner, then we only have one way to go, that is, to go to the land of chaos, only there we don't have to worry about the city lord's pursuit, and only there is a place that the Great Qin Empire can't control. But Captain, is it worth taking such a risk for the sake of a supreme treasure?" After Ye Xiao finished speaking, he looked at the night blue wolf.
"What Mr. Ye said is right, this matter will be handed over to Mr. Ye, as for whether it is worth it, you will know later. The Night Blue Wolf said after listening to Ye Xiao's plan.
"Okay, since the head of the regiment has decided, then the subordinates will do it!" Ye Xiao saw that the night blue wolf was unwavering in his determination to get the Red Feather Sword, so he had no choice but not to persuade him.
"The less people know about this matter, the better, as for the candidate, I think Mr. Ye knows how to do it! It's not too early, Mr. Ye go back and rest!" "The night wolf doesn't know if he made the right bet this time, but if he can get the Red Feather Sword, even if he pays the price of fighting, it will be worth it.
Xia Yang stopped practicing and came to the front of the courtyard, at this time the weather was already a little cool, for the martial artist, even the harsh environment would not have too much impact, Xia Yang looked up at the starry sky, a round of golden full moon hung high in the starry sky, Xia Yang unconsciously thought, is there such a world in the distant starry sky? For a while, Xia Yang stood in the courtyard, enjoying the tranquility of this dark night.
In Xia Ye's room, his face was solemn, and Xia Ye sat cross-legged on the bed with an incredible look in his eyes, thinking about the news his father told him in the afternoon, Xia Ye was still a little incredulous.
At that time, he had just finished his day's cultivation when his father asked someone to call him to the study, "Father, I don't know what you did when you called the child?" Xia Houyu looked at his son, feeling relieved and a little helpless, others may not know his son, but he knows his son very well, although he was not proud when others said that he was a genius of the Xia family, but he was indeed worthy of the title of a genius that the Xia family had encountered in a hundred years, he knew that his son secretly did not know how much he had suffered in order to maintain the name of the genius of the Xia family, he did not let himself down, nor did he disappoint the rest of the Xia family. Just thinking of this, Xiahou Yu sighed helplessly in his heart.
"Father, father, what's wrong with you?" Xia Ye looked at his father suspiciously, he had never seen his father like this.
Xiahou Yu came back to his senses, glanced at Xia Ye, smiled and said, "It's okay, Ye'er, how have you cultivated recently? It's going to hunt soon, do you have confidence?"
"Father, rest assured, my cultivation has already reached the peak of the middle stage of the sixth order, and I feel a little loose recently, I think it won't take a few days to break through, and I will definitely go all out when hunting. Xia Ye thought of the cultivation that he would soon be able to break through, and said with a little excitement.
"Okay, it is worthy of being my son Xiahou Yu, I called you here today because I have something to tell you, this matter is related to the future of the Xia family, and only the head of our Xia family, the second master, and your uncle, third uncle and father know, and the others don't know about it, you can't tell Xia Yuan about this matter, otherwise it will be dealt with according to the clan rules." Xia Houyu said, and his tone was quite stern.
Xia Ye didn't know what his father was going to tell him, he was very curious and puzzled, since it was about the future of the Xia family, why did he tell himself?
"I know the doubts in your heart, you just have to rot this thing in your stomach. Xiahou Yu said solemnly.
Xia Ye nodded in understanding.
Xia Houyu looked at Xia Ye, first sighed, and then said: "You have to remember that if this matter is known to outsiders, the Xia family's soy sauce will be wiped out." After a pause, Xia Houyu asked, "Do you know Xia Yang's current cultivation?"
Xia Ye didn't understand why his father had such a question, and he couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart, but he still replied: "Isn't my cousin's cultivation at the beginning of the sixth order of body refining?" Speaking of this, the child is a little ashamed, my cousin is already like this when he is four years younger than himself, and it won't take long to surpass me, and then he will be the first day talent worthy of the name of my Xia family." I don't know why my father asked about this?Could it be that what my father is about to say has something to do with my cousin?" Xia Ye said in surprise.
"That's right, Ye'er really has an excellent understanding, Xia Yang's cultivation is actually not the early stage of the sixth order of body refining, but the early stage of the seventh order of body refining!" Xia Houyu looked at Xia Ye and said solemnly.
Xia Ye suddenly saw what his father said, he was stunned for a while, his face showed disbelief, he thought in his heart that his father must be joking with himself, but how could his father joke about this kind of thing, the only explanation is that what his father said is the truth. Xia Ye's heart shook wildly, how could this be possible! How did Xia Yang cultivate, his hard work and cultivation to now be the peak of the middle stage of the sixth order of body refining, how did he do it? Xia Ye kept asking himself in his heart, could it be that he had taken some kind of treasure of heaven and earth? Xia Ye didn't notice at all that his own cultivation fluctuated with the great change in his mind, and his strength was a little uncontrollably surging in his body.
Xia Houyu frowned slightly and looked at Xia Ye's changes, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes, he knew how hard this matter hit him, and quietly used the aura in his body to prevent accidents from happening.
As time passed, the worry on Xia Houyu's face was even worse, and he couldn't help but regret telling him about it at this time, he wanted to wake up Xia Ye now, but at the same time, he hoped that Xia Ye could get rid of this predicament by his own efforts, in this way, it would only be good for Xia Ye's future cultivation, but fortunately, Xia Ye did not let himself down.
I saw that Xia Ye's face slowly calmed down from the original incredible, and his breathing changed from the original shortness to stability, Xia Houyu saw it in his eyes, and finally let go of his heart.
After a cup of tea, Xia Ye opened his eyes and saw the worry in his father's eyes, and couldn't help but feel warm in his heart. He immediately said: "Let the father worry about the child, the child is fine." ”
Xiahou Yu nodded with a smile and said, "It's okay, go back and rest, remember this matter and don't let others know!"
"Yes, father. The child is free to measure, and if there is nothing else, I will go back first. Xia Ye said solemnly.
"Go!" Xia Houyu said.
