Chapter 32: Suspicion
After dawn, the news of the death of the Zhou family's secret guard spread far and wide, and it was still the person who was killed on the Bamian Mountain, how much courage and courage was this.
The Zhou family, who were originally going to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, seemed to be crazy, causing a big battle at the foot of the Bamian Mountain, and at the same time fighting against the East China Sea Sect and the Six Cities Alliance in the south of the Yangtze River.
The secret guard died, which was a fatal provocation to the Zhou family.
The Zhou family is no longer restrained, and the power that can be used on the Bamian Mountain is pouring down like a flood beast, especially the dark guard.
The fifteen secret guards are as close as siblings, the death of the third child makes the dark guards angry, the rest of the secret guards were not in the courtyard last night, they don't believe that anyone can run over the heavenly step formation to the halfway up the mountain to kill people.
But the death of the third child is a fact.
Under the eight-sided mountain, the sword shadow and sword light, especially the fourteen secret guards, fought fiercely, and the spiritual power gushed out without saving, and whenever the spiritual power was exhausted, one by one the pills were stuffed into the mouth.
They are avenging the third child of the Dark Guard.
Although I don't know whether the enemy is the East China Sea Sect or the Jiangnan Six Cities Alliance, in short, it is one of them, and I would rather kill him by mistake than let it go.
The corpses of the severed arms covered the ground, blood flowed out of the corpses, and the red streams slowly converged into a pool of bright red water, and even the sky was slowly dyed pale red.
Crescent wiped his nose, he was used to the smell of blood, but he didn't like it. There will be battles all day long in the East China Sea, and he is used to seeing them, but this is just facing the Jiangnan Zhou family now.
At this moment, the Jiangnan Six Cities Alliance and the East China Sea Sect are standing together, and the indiscriminate conquest of the Zhou family will naturally push the rest of the people to join forces to resist.
"Does Zhou Dao want to be the enemy of the entire Jiangnan?" The head of the family in the six cities south of the Yangtze River said, his voice shocked and angry. Although the overall strength of these families is not as good as that of the Zhou family, the top families in Jiangnan have to hurt their muscles and bones if they want to move them.
It was Shen Mou who came forward from the Shen family, and the madness of the Zhou family could only make Shen Mou come out to stabilize the morale of the army, otherwise these families in the six cities south of the Yangtze River would not rely on it, how could they unite?
Shen Mou's old god was here, and it seemed that he had expected someone to ask. These families who come to Jiangnan City and want to get a piece of the pie, which one is not shrewd and bold, such people often have no righteousness, and they may not be able to withstand the pressure of the Zhou family and may withdraw from Jiangnan City.
"Master Ning, don't be impatient." Shen Mou said that he didn't expect the Zhou family to be so crazy.
"Now only if our Jiangnan family and the East China Sea Sect unite can we deal with it."
"Indeed, the secret guard of the Zhou family and the red horse of the Hua family, the two top families are united ......"
"Now it's all up to the old master of the Shen family, and the Zhou family threw out the boundary monument of the ruins, obviously sitting on the mountain to watch the tiger fight, with sinister intentions."
“……”
There was a lot of gossip and discussions, all of which wanted to unite against the attack of the Zhou family and the Hua family.
Crescent did not speak, and he scoffed at the words of those people. In the past few days, he has clearly realized the strength of the Jiangnan family.
It is not impossible to unite, but how to solve the previous contradictions between the two, there is always some friction between the family and the sect to deal with.
……
"Check."
"Find out who dared to kill my Zhou family's secret guard?" Zhou Dao said angrily.
It is not easy to cultivate the secret guard of the Zhou family, and he has a deep relationship with Zhou Dao, and he is Zhou Dao's henchman. The secret guard was killed, still on the Bamian Mountain, which was undoubtedly a slap in the face of Zhou Dao.
At that time, outside Jiangnan City, Ye Muge led the cultivators of the Ye family to rescue Lin Yu, obviously he had the strength to wipe him out, why didn't he kill him, isn't it that the Ye family knows the importance of the secret guard in the eyes of Zhou Dao and the status of the Zhou family!
"From the people on the mountain, I don't believe that anyone can cross the Ten Thousand Hells Heavenly Fire Lead." Zhou Dao said again. He profoundly knew that the Heavenly Rank Great Array, Ten Thousand Hells, and Heavenly Fire were very powerful.
"The head of the Zhou family is suspicious of our Hua family?" Gong Zicheng stood behind Hua Yingqiu and said.
The meaning of Zhou Dao's words is that the people of the Hua family have problems.
Sooner or later, sooner or later, as soon as the Hua family went to Bamian Mountain, the secret guard was attacked and one person was killed, and the Zhou family had to suspect that the Hua family had done it.
Zhou Dao's eyes were only angry, and Zhou Shu, who was standing beside him, could already feel his brother's suppressed anger.
"Aren't you suspicious?"
"The Hua family wouldn't do such a thing."
"Call the flower to leave a name to speak, here, you are not qualified."
Gong Zicheng choked, his identity is not equal to Zhou Dao, but he can't be ridiculed by Zhou Dao like this.
The battle under the mountain was just a way for the Zhou family to show their anger, and Zhou Dao knew in his heart that this could never be the work of those rabble people under the mountain.
"I'll tell my master." Gong Zicheng said indignantly.
Immediately, Gong Zicheng left, and it was only Gong Zicheng who left.
Hua Yingqiu sat upright and didn't say a word, he knew that now that the suspicion was on the head of the Hua family, it was impossible for the Zhou family to let them leave. Gong Zicheng's departure was just to leave a letter for Hua.
"Nephew, you live on the mountain, and when things are cleared up, you are going down the mountain." Zhou Dao said, there is no doubt.
Hua Yingqiu nodded, he understood what Zhou Dao meant. If it weren't for the East China Sea Sect under the mountain, or the Six Cities Family in the south of the Yangtze River, then the only targets they could suspect on the mountain would be the people of the Hua family.
And the Hua family on the mountain is only three or two people.
Hua Yingqiu walked towards the courtyard where Xia Qing lived.
"Isn't it you?" Hua Yingqiu asked, her voice was cold, and she didn't have the graceful demeanor she had for Xia Qingran before.
"It's not." Xia Qingran replied, his expression was natural, and there was nothing unusual.
"You know what I'm asking?"
"I don't know." Xia Qingran said.
Hua Yingqiu was puzzled, I don't know why he directly denied Hua Yingqiu?
"Whatever happened, it wasn't about me. Those outside the yard can attest. Xia Qingran explained.
Hua Yingqiu naturally realized that since they got up the mountain, they had some more "tails". It is understandable that the Zhou family is precautionary against them, as long as the alliance between the Zhou family and the Hua family is not missed.
Hua Yingqiu stared at the cold Xia Qingran, he didn't know how to read minds, but he wanted to judge whether what Xia Qingran said was true or false.
As the minutes ticked by, the air between the two seemed to be not flowing, and the atmosphere was dreary. In Hua Yingqiu's eyes, Xia Qingran is indeed a woman who makes his heart move.
There are beautiful women in the north, peerless and independent.
Although Xia Qingran grew up in the south of the Yangtze River, she was as cold as snow in the northern region, and her eyes were like cold springs in the mountains, which were neither glamorous nor enchanting, but they made people fascinated.
Hua Yingqiu didn't want it to be Xia Qingran, even though her suspicions were great.
Xia Zihan is impossible, because she is only in the Xuanling Realm, and only Xia Qingran, a woman who can cultivate to the Gathering Star Realm at this age in the barren land on the coast of the East China Sea.
"If it weren't for you, I'd keep you safe." Hua Yingqiu left after speaking. The "tail" behind Xia Qingran will have the Zhou family to verify, and he can only hope that Xia Qingran has nothing to do with this matter.
Xia Qingran is still sitting like that, she is a smart woman. Since she would act like this, she had already expected what would happen next.
As long as she can ensure that the Minggang secret post outside does not find Xia Qingran, she can be safe and sound. Murder requires evidence, especially since Xia Qingran is still under the wing of the Hua family. If there is no evidence, it is impossible for the Hua family to arrest Xia Qingran without evidence and start a war with the Hua family.
Then in the entire Jiangnan City, I am afraid that it will be difficult for the Zhou family to survive.
"Sister." Xia Zihan shouted. She heard the voice when Hua Yingqiu came in, and she saw everything next.
Xia Qingran looked at Xia Zihan, she knew that the assassination of the Zhou family's secret guards must not be told to Xia Zihan, if she didn't say it well, it would be a disaster of killing. Therefore, Xia Qingran had been persuading Xia Zihan to return to Donghai County.
"Sister." Xia Qingran responded. At this moment, her heart is uneasy. She avenged part of Jin Xin's revenge, but she also let herself fall into a cage.
"Something happened to the Zhou family, you and I don't walk around outside." After Xia Qingran finished speaking, he went back to the room alone.
At first, Xia Qingran was reluctant to take Xia Zihan to the Zhou family, and was misunderstood by Xia Zihan to accompany Hua Yingqiu and marry into the Hua family.
Until now, the Zhou family will not let them leave, they can only take one step at a time.
Xia Zihan looked at Xia Qingran's back, she knew that this sister had a lot of things to hide from them, including how Xia Qingran arrived at the Gathering Star Realm, and with the resources of the Xia family, she couldn't create another Gathering Star Realm no matter what.
But Xia Qingran did it.
The Xia family didn't give Xia Qingran any resources, so it was even more difficult for Xia Zihan to ask.
……
In the east of Jiangnan City, in the middle of the Shen Mansion.
Shen Mou and Old Lady Ye sat on the main seat, Lin Yu and Ye Muge sat on one side, and opposite them sat an old man with a face similar to Shen Mou and Shen Shuyi.
The secret guard of the Zhou family died on the Bamian Mountain, and the Zhou family opened a killing spree, and the strength revealed terrified the Donghai Sect and the Six Cities of Jiangnan family. Obviously, their assessment of the Zhou family was somewhat wrong.
But such a mistake was corrected by an alliance between the two.
Originally, Lin Yu's plan was for the Shen family to control the Six Cities Alliance in the south of the Yangtze River, and the Ye family would always have a certain right to speak among the East China Sea sects, and maintain the balance between the three.
For example, in the current situation, the East China Sea Sect and the Jiangnan Six Cities Alliance fought against the Zhou family and the Hua family, because the Zhou family's secret guard died, and the situation instead evolved into a situation where the two competed for power.
This is what Lin Yu does not want to see.
A large-scale war by a cultivator will inevitably affect the fish in the pond. There were already beacons of fire at the foot of the mountain on the west side of Jiangnan City, and countless mortals were pouring into other urban areas.
Although there were no countless casualties, there were scenes where children lost their fathers and old people lost their sons.
Such a scene would remind Lin Yu of the little girl with a pair of innocent big eyes under the city wall that she saved in the Expedition of the Wilderness, maybe she didn't have time to be scared at that time.
Lin Yu was also expelled from the Hanging Mirror Palace because of this, but he did not regret it.
He is not a compassionate person, but why should the dispute between practitioners harm innocent people?
