Chapter 21: The arrogance of the Zhao family
"The three elders of the Zhao family visited your Tang family, and they didn't open the city gate for Lao Tzu!"
Under the gate of the Tang family's mansion, five figures came violently. The guards on the wall of the mansion leaned over and looked at the person, it was none other than Zhao Xuan, the third elder of the Zhao family.
Walking side by side with Zhao was a middle-aged man covered in a black robe, followed by a white-clothed young man wearing a feather crown and holding a feather fan. At this time, it was not Zhao Yan himself who shouted to open the city gate, it was Fang Yuesong, the head of the Fang family, and Ye Tianfan, the Ye family, who helped him open the way in front.
"Hmph, what does this Tang family mean by building the city wall so high? Do you want to prevent the enemy from attacking?" the black-robed middle-aged man snorted coldly.
"Just because of this broken city wall, you want to keep the family? Tang Gan, the old immortal, is too child's play. What does the guardian family rely on? Rely on strength! If the Zhao family comes to attack their Tang family, the clan will be wiped out in an instant! What can a broken city wall do?" Ye Tianfan, the head of the Ye family, followed behind Zhao Xuan and said flatteringly.
Fang Yuesong pretended to shake his head helplessly, and sighed: "Hey, but there is a guy who has a bad head, Tang Gan, the old horseman, is going back more and more, and he is not even willing to take out a little bit of shop as a dowry, and he is even dissatisfied with the matter of the Zhao family's son's concubine Tang Ziying, he was really kicked in the head by a donkey!"
In Fang Yuesong and Ye Tianfan singing and harmonizing, Zhao Xuan, the third elder of the Zhao family, stepped into the Tang family's mansion with a gloomy face.
"The three elders of the Zhao family came to visit the Tang family, and the old man missed the distance, so I hope to forgive me. In the lobby of the Tang family's mansion, the old patriarch of Tang Qian sat in front of the hall and bowed his hand to Zhao Xuan and his party.
At this time, Tang Feng stood beside Tang Qian. And under the hall sat the patriarch Tang Xiong, the eldest elder Tang Longfei, the second elder Tang Dongsheng and other elders.
Tang Feng noticed that Tang Ziying was sitting behind Tang Kongxuan generously, her eyes were cold, and she seemed to be a little distracted. Tang Feng's gaze fell on Tang Ziying many times, and Tang Ziying didn't know whether it was intentional or speechless, and kept avoiding his gaze. seems to be a lot colder to Tang Feng.
Tang Feng also just learned that the Zhao family had come to propose marriage a few days ago, and he also wanted the Tang family to take eighteen shops as a dowry! After learning all this, Tang Feng was furious, and secretly made up his mind that he could not let Tang Ziying marry the Zhao family as a concubine no matter what!
"Hmph, Tang Qian, what do you mean! Eighteen stores are a good thing to say as a dowry, why do you want to regret it today!" Zhao Xuan was not polite at all, and immediately snorted coldly.
Tang Qian's face was bitter, and he explained: "The Zhao family came to propose marriage a few days ago, and the old man was not there at that time, and many things still need to be discussed!"
"Chatter, don't you think it's okay Tang Qian, you don't think the third son of the Zhao family is not worthy of your granddaughter!" the black-robed middle-aged man smiled sneeringly.
"Hei Meng, this matter is a matter between me and the Zhao family, what are you doing with the Black Eagle Sect!" Tang Qian looked at the middle-aged man in black robe with a weird yin and yang spirit, and said angrily.
In fact, Tang Qian has always been angry about the Black Eagle Sect sending people to assassinate Tang Feng, how can he show Hei Meng a good face now.
The black robe trembled, and he said quietly: "Yes, this marriage is none of my business." However, the tragic death of the fourth elder of my Black Eagle Sect, Hei Sha, has a lot to do with my Heimeng!"
"The four elders of the Black Eagle Sect died tragically?" The elders of the Tang family looked at each other and asked, "What's going on?"
"What's going on? You guys really know how to pretend to be garlic. Not long ago, I ordered the Fourth Elder Hei Sha and the others to bring a thousand taels of gold to your Tang family's Xuaniron ore vein, wanting to buy some pure Xuaniron to make weapons for the Black Eagle Sect, but I don't want your Tang family to kill people in order to rob the finances!
"Hei Meng, you're spewing blood!" Seeing that Hei Meng had imposed the crime of fabrication on the Tang family, the elders of the Tang family stood up one by one and looked at Hei Xia angrily.
"Haha, what's the matter? I want to bully more and less! My Black Eagle Sect has always acted above board, but I didn't expect that one day I would be so bullied by the Tang family! I also hope that the three elders of the Zhao family will be the master of our Black Eagle Sect!"
"Heimeng, you!"
"Shut up for me! Whether your Tang family is murdered or not, Elder Ben will decide!"
Zhao Xuan slapped the table, as if he was the master here, and announced: "Our Zhao family has determined that the fourth elder of the Black Eagle Sect, Hei Sha, is on the Tang family's ore vein, this is an indisputable fact, as for whether your Tang family is the mastermind or not, I don't know, but at least it has a lot to do with your Tang family." Therefore, in order to appease the Black Eagle Sect, our Zhao family plans to come forward to occupy fifty percent of your Tang family's Xuaniron veins to the Black Eagle Sect as a consolation!"
"Haha, thank you Elder Zhao for being the master of our Black Eagle Sect!" Hei Meng smiled smugly and said gratefully to Zhao Xuan.
"What? Fifty percent of the Xuaniron ore veins! That is the economic lifeblood of our Tang family!" Tang Qian couldn't sit still at this time, the teacup in his hand shook violently, and the tea splashed on his body.
"This is impossible, the Tang family's veins are the foundation of our Tang family, how can it be divided into fifty percent to others!"
Tang Longfei, the eldest elder of the Tang family, and Tang Dongsheng, the second elder, slapped the table and glared angrily at Zhao Xuan and the others.
The Tang family's vein is the economic lifeline of the entire Tang family's survival, if it is divided into fifty percent, then the Tang family may not take long, and it will completely decline because of the economic collapse without the Zhao family's action!
Thinking of this, the Tang family was full of righteous indignation, and the vigorous energy of the Tang family gathered together, surging wildly towards Zhao Xuan and the others.
"What, can't you Tang family do it if you want to! We will accompany you at any time in a fight!" At this time, Fang Yuesong and Ye Tianfan noticed the changes in the Tang family and stood up, not afraid of the momentum of the Tang family.
"Tang Qian, the matter of the Xuaniron vein is as I just said. As for the matter of our Zhao family's concubine, there is no room for negotiation. Now our Zhao family is going to take people away, and our Zhao family will send someone to take over the eighteen storefronts on West Street. If your Tang family is not convinced, our Zhao family welcomes your Tang family to come over and snatch the shop back at any time!"
"Zhao Xuan, you!"
"How can it be that the old patriarch Tang still has any objections to taking concubines!"
Zhao Xuan immediately ordered Zhao Lingyu behind him: "Yu'er, what are you waiting for, why don't you go and take your concubine away quickly!"
"The child obeys his father's orders!" Zhao Lingyu laughed and walked over to Tang Ziying, intending to forcibly take him away.
Tang Kongxuan's eyes flashed with a trace of anger, and the boys of the same generation watched Zhao Lingyu rush towards Tang Ziying violently, and they all gritted their teeth. However, they didn't dare to act rashly at all, the Zhao family and the Tang family couldn't afford to provoke them, and they couldn't afford to provoke them!
"The Zhao family is robbing, robbing the Tang family's storefront, grabbing the Tang family's mineral veins, and even robbing the Tang family's women!"
"Strength, strength is everything, strength is king! Without strength, they will be bullied, and even the entire family will not be able to keep it!"
At this time, the Tang family was deeply aware of the importance of strength, and in this world where martial arts were respected, everything was based on strength! The Tang family felt a deep sense of powerlessness!
"Zhao Lingyu, if you want to take Cousin Ziying away, have you asked me if Tang Feng has you!"
Just as Zhao Lingyu stretched out his claws and was about to forcibly capture Tang Ziying, a white figure catapulted like a ghost, blocking in front of Tang Ziying.
"What, it's you waste! It's a good thing for Lao Tzu to come again! Get out of the way of Lao Tzu!" Zhao Lingyu was furious, he didn't think about a waste that couldn't be cultivated, the handprint of his left hand changed, and he grabbed it fiercely at Tang Feng's leader in a claw shape.
Zhao Lingyu caught it as soon as he caught it, his own four-star level cultivation, plus the cultivation of this level of heaven-level martial art Yin Thunder Claw. Normally, even if he is a master at the peak of a four-star peak, his skull will be cracked by this claw!
"Bang!"
However, the next moment something big surprised happened. Seeing that Tang Feng didn't dodge, Zhao Lingyu slapped Tang Feng on the back of the head with one claw, making a heavy muffled sound. Not only did Tang Feng's head not shatter, on the contrary, his head was not deviated, and his whole body stood there steadily.
"What!"
Everyone's jaws were about to drop, how could Tang Feng, who is a four-star cultivator, withstand Zhao Lingyu's first-order heaven-level martial art Yin Thunder Claw, who was also a four-star strength!
Tang Feng had a strange smile on his face, "Isn't it cool to shoot people's heads?" Looking at Zhao Lingyu coldly with a shocked face, Tang Feng shook his head casually.
"Ahh
I saw that Zhao Lingyu's originally imposing claws were easily shaken open by Tang Feng's head, and a "click" sounded on his hand bones at the same time, and the palm bones immediately shattered.
"It hurts!"
Then, Zhao Lingyu's heart-rending cry of pain resounded in the hall, and his body involuntarily retreated backwards under the exclusion of a huge force.
"What a bold son, a junior of the Tang family, he dares to do something to the people of our Zhao family!
At the moment when Tang Feng made a move, Zhao Xuan locked Tang Feng. Whoever dares to do something to the Zhao family will have to die! How can the majesty of the Zhao family be offended by a stinky boy!
The majestic battle qi turned into a huge lion's head, and pounced on Tang Feng with bloodthirsty ferocity. The battle qi of the eight-star cultivation overflowed, combined with the third-order heaven-level martial arts of this "Heavenly Lion Evil God", its strong power was enough to tear a seven-star peak master apart, Tang Feng also felt a huge sense of oppression at this time, and his entire body was suppressed by the battle qi so that he couldn't move a bit.
"Zhao Xuan, this is the Tang family, how can you be presumptuous!" Seeing that Tang Feng's life was threatened, Tang Gan's heart was horizontal, and his whole body was shocked, and the thick battle qi of the eight-star peak level burst out from his body.
"Huh!"
Tang Qian turned his fist into a palm and shook violently, and the battle qi gushing out behind him began to churn violently, constantly changing. In the end, it condensed into a vigorous giant winged goshawk and bombarded the huge lion's head.
"Snort!"
The two battle qi collided fiercely in the air, and suddenly the sound of a heat wave churning sounded in shock. The escaping battle qi immediately spread out in all directions, directly shaking some tables and chairs to pieces.
"Haha, haha......" The strong momentum directly shook Zhao Zhen back again and again. Zhao Xuan didn't laugh angrily, but the bursts of laughter full of murderous intent made the Tang family feel a chill.
"Haha, what a Tang Gan, do you know what it means since the moment you made a move?
At this time, Tang Qian's brows were furrowed, and a trace of solemnity flashed on his face. Although Zhao Xuan's words were arrogant, they hit the heart of the Tang family!
"The strength of the Eight Star Peak is really amazing! Haha, what, do it, as long as you make a move, my father and son Zhao will die in this Tang family hall today. Tang Qian, I'll give you this chance, shoot!"
"Elder Zhao ......" At this time, cold sweat broke out on the foreheads of Hei Sha, Fang Yuesong, and Ye Tianfan, this Zhao Xuan was obviously overly arrogant. Rabbits will bite when they are in a hurry, if they really provoke Tang Qian, the master of the eight-star peak, their lives may really be explained here.
"Elder Zhao, our Tang family has no intention of going against your Zhao family, our family style is ignorant and has offended your son-in-law. You don't want to be like him!" said Great Elder Tang Longfei.
"Bad seeds, your Tang family is all bad seeds!"
Zhao Zhanli ignored Tang Longfei, and immediately roared at the Tang family: "You damn bastards, none of them can run, let Lao Tzu enjoy the rest of the days!" Zhao Xuan's face was gloomy and almost dripping blood, and he stepped out of the door with a high spirit.
Seeing the situation, Hei Meng and the others hurriedly helped the injured Zhao Lingyu to follow Zhao Xuan and leave, but they sneered in their hearts, "It seems that the destruction of the Tang family is certain!"
