Chapter 221: Angry and Corrupt
Qingyun City, in the conference hall of the Situ family's mansion, Situ Yaori was sitting on the first seat, his face was extremely ugly, his chest fell together, looking at Situ Tianyu and the white-haired old man kneeling on the ground below, he almost fainted.
"Rice bucket, you two rice buckets, you ...... You guys...... cough, cough, cough, cough ......" Situ Yaori roared exhaustedly, because he was so angry, he couldn't help coughing again and again, took a deep breath, and then relieved himself, and continued: "Look at what this is, you actually spent five million spirit stones to buy a brick, do you want to anger me?"
Situ Yaori pointed to the jade box on the ground, and shouted breathlessly, in the face of Situ Yaori's anger, where did Situ Tianyu and the white-haired elder dare to speak, they just knelt down, and did not dare to raise their heads, but they were puzzled and aggrieved in their hearts.
They obviously got the snow jade bone ginseng from the Treasure Pavilion, and then escorted it back to Situ's house, how did they look at it after they came back, but it turned into a brick, isn't this a big joke?
Situ Tianyu really couldn't figure it out, how did a good snow jade bone ginseng become a worthless brick?
"Father, we are obviously taking back the Snow Jade Bone Ginseng from the Treasure Pavilion, and all of this is under the protection of the three elders, so there is absolutely no way that anything can go wrong. I guess it must have been done by the Treasure Pavilion in advance, otherwise this good snow jade bone ginseng would never have turned into a brick, absolutely impossible!"
Situ Tianyu's mind was blank for a while, this was too big a blow to him, and the blow to the Situ family was too big, he couldn't figure it out, so he had to think of a seemingly reasonable reason.
This thing is really weird, the jade box has always been in his hands, and the snow jade bone ginseng has always been in his hands, why did it become a brick for no reason!
"Treasure Pavilion, what are you kidding, you are talking about how the Treasure Pavilion moves, you yourself said, it was the people of the Treasure Pavilion who personally handed it over to you, you took the things away and lost them, and then went back to ask others for the same things, do you think this is a child playing with mud and sand?"
Five million, that's five million lower-grade spirit stones, and five million lower-grade spirit stones are in the Situ family's savings for decades. I thought that this time I could break through to the Martial Sect level with the thousand-year-old Snow Jade Bone Ginseng, but I didn't expect such a thing to happen.
"This ......"
Faced with Situ Yaori's questioning, Situ Tianyu was speechless for a while. Even if the Treasure Pavilion moves its hands and feet, you have no evidence, and people can fart you completely. And the Treasure Pavilion is powerful, far from being comparable to the Situ family, you don't have enough evidence, even if you know that people have done it, you can't do anything about it.
"Family master, I think this matter should have nothing to do with the Treasure Pavilion, when the young master took out the thousand-year-old snow jade bone ginseng from the Treasure Pavilion, the old man was also present, and repeatedly confirmed that it was the genuine thousand-year-old snow jade bone ginseng, it was impossible to make a mistake in a short time. The only thing we could have gone wrong was when we came back!"
Just when Situ Tianyu was speechless, the white-haired old man spoke. It was a good time to relieve Situ Tianyu, and Situ Tianyu was also secretly relieved and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead.
Situ Yaori has always had a relatively calm temperament, and it was the first time Situ Tianyu had seen Situ Yaori have such a big fire. However, it was five million low-grade spirit stones, and it was reasonable to make a lot of fire.
"Oh, what do the Third Elder mean by that?"
Situ Yaori's eyes flashed with a hint of brightness and asked. The thousand-year-old snow jade bone ginseng worth five million lower grade spirit stones disappeared out of thin air like this, it would never be so simple at this time, the three elders of the Situ family and Situ Yaori were all martial artists who had cultivated to a high level, no matter how high the cultivation was, they might unknowingly take the snow jade bone ginseng in front of them, and put the bricks in the jade box.
This series of actions is absolutely impossible to do.
"The head of the family can't become a martial arts powerhouse, who is the most beneficial?"
A deep look flashed in the eyes of the three elders, which meant a lot of meaning.
"You mean, this thing was also done by the Xiao family?"
As soon as the third elder said this, a glimmer of light flashed in Situ Yaori's eyes. What the three elders said was not unreasonable, but how did the people of the Xiao family do it?
"This old man didn't dare to say anything, the old man remembered that he came back all the way, and only Xiao Yi of the Xiao family and the young master had intersected. It can be said that apart from me and the second young master, he is the only one who has ever been close to the Snow Jade Bone Ginseng!"
A glimmer of wisdom flashed in the three elders' cloudy eyes, and they said eloquently.
"What the Third Elder said is indeed good, that Xiao Yi has indeed been close to me! However, the box containing the thousand-year-old snow jade bone ginseng has always been in my hand, and it is sealed, even if he Xiao Yi has great ability, how can he take the snow jade bone ginseng in my hand without letting me notice it, this is impossible, this is absolutely impossible!"
Situ Tianyu listened to the words of the three elders and hurriedly interjected. If the Third Elder said so, wouldn't it be that the responsibility for losing the thousand-year-old Snow Jade Bone Ginseng fell on him, which was not what Situ Tianyu wanted to see.
"Second young master, don't get me wrong, the old man doesn't blame the young master for anything. The old man was also present at the time, and the old man also had a lot of responsibility for the loss of the thousand-year-old snow jade bone ginseng. However, what we need to do now is not to shirk responsibility, but to find out what we are doing wrong, and whose hands did the snow jade bone ginseng fall into? Otherwise, you and I will become sinners in the family. ”
The Third Elder said with displeasure.
"But...... How could this happen? That snow jade bone ginseng is in my hand, if that Xiao Yi moves his hands and feet, how can I not be able to detect it, this is impossible, this is absolutely impossible!"
Situ Tianyu's face was extremely ugly, and he said in disbelief. The truth that the Third Elder said was so terrifying that he really couldn't accept it, if someone could take something from his hands without letting him notice it in the slightest, it was absolutely impossible!
In any case, he is also a martial artist-level martial artist, and there is also a martial artist-level master standing beside him, how can he Xiao Yi, how can he be able to take things from the air, and do everything in an instant, it is impossible to be reasonable.
"Hmph...... Impossible? In this world, there are many things that you don't think of others have done, and there is nothing impossible in this world! I think the third elder is right, if you want to find snow jade bone ginseng, you have to start with the people of the Xiao family. After all, I can't break through to the realm of the Martial Sect, and the biggest beneficiary is the Xiao family. As for that kid from the Xiao family, he is really evil, we must clean him up as soon as possible, lest he become a climate, and we will regret it too late!"
Situ Yaori snorted coldly, his eyes were deep, and he was quite dignified. Speaking of Xiao Yi, a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes, and he was even a little jealous.
"Nine out of ten of that snow jade bone ginseng fell into the hands of that kid, as for what you want to break through to the realm of the Martial Sect, you don't have to rely on anything, because this Dharma Protector can help you!"
An abrupt voice came, and a black gas suddenly appeared in the council room, and a man in black suddenly appeared in front of him, but it startled the three of them.
"It's my lord, what do you mean by this, do you know what happened outside, my lord?
When Situ Yaori saw someone coming, he immediately changed his usual coldness and greeted him, with a flattering smile on his face, and he looked sincerely afraid. And Situ Tianyu and the three elders were kneeling on the ground, and they also looked sincerely frightened. Hearing the man in black say that he wanted to help him break through to the realm of the Martial Sect, he was even happier in his heart.
"I don't know very well, I know a little bit! My disciple witnessed everything that happened, although he was not 100% sure, but he was also ninety percent sure, and that thousand-year-old snow jade bone ginseng would fall into his hands! This kid from the Xiao family was very weird, and he had to get rid of it as soon as possible! Otherwise, it wouldn't take long for him to be full-fledged! As for your cultivation, I think it's time for you to break through to the realm of the Martial Sect!"
The man in black was expressionless, and his voice was faint, as if he was saying something that had nothing to do with him. However, this Situ family's affairs really have nothing to do with him.
"My lord, that kid just has a little better talent for alchemy, and his cultivation has entered the realm a little faster, maybe he just used some powerful pill. I don't think it's enough to be afraid, when the adults are successful, they will definitely be able to sweep away the Xiao family!"
When Situ Tianyu heard this, he was a little angry. Thinking that Xiao Yi was just a shitty waste in his eyes, but now he is so jealous of this super strong man in front of him, Situ Tianyu is a little jealous in his heart, how can he Xiao Yi?
"Don't be afraid, someone else takes something from your hand as if it were a bag, and you don't know it. Who are you to say that others are not to be feared?"
The man in black listened to Situ Tianyu's flattering words, and there was no trace of pleasure on his face, but a trace of mockery appeared on his face, and he said with disdain.
When Situ Tianyu heard this, he couldn't help but blush and be ashamed. gritted his teeth, and hated Xiao Yi even more in his heart!
"I remember the words of the adult, I will definitely kill this kid as soon as possible. I've already sent people out in the past few days, and it looks like I'm going to send more people now, and I'm sure to kill this variable!"
Situ Yaori bowed to the man in black, very respectfully. It seems that he is afraid that he will accidentally offend the man in black in front of him!
Hearing this, the man in black just nodded slightly, and his figure turned into a burst of black gas in an instant, disappearing from the council hall.
The man in black disappeared, and Situ Yaori, Situ Tianyu and the three elders all breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and this master who had just left was the biggest reliance of their Situ family.
If it weren't for this strong reliance, the Situ family would have developed so rapidly in recent years, especially in the last year. If the Situ family wants to dominate the family in Qingyun City, and even seek greater development, they have to rely on this master a lot!
Now, the Situ family is offering him like a Buddha!
