Chapter 22: The Wrath of the Three Great Families
Su Chen returned home and lay down on the bed after taking a shower.
This night, he maintained due vigilance and did not fall into a deep sleep.
He killed Wang Lun, Li Yong and others, and if their respective families investigated in depth, it would be easy to suspect Su Chen's head.
Although there is no evidence that Su Chen killed them, it does not prevent them from coming to arrest them.
Su Chen had already prepared for the worst, and if he felt that the situation was not right tomorrow, he would flee to a distant place to hide for a while.
When he woke up the next morning, he learned explosive news from his neighbors.
The Wang family, the Li family, and the Chen family (the family of the man in the white robe) joined forces to arrest all the people involved who appeared at the scene of the crime yesterday and tortured them severely.
Among them were the small leader He Tao who met yesterday, more than a dozen minions, and about 20 women who stood on the corner of the alley and sold their bodies.
In the face of the powerful forces of the three clans, even Zhou Cang, the gang leader behind He Tao, could only sigh secretly and swallow the anger in his stomach.
Although the people in the Dongcheng government learned about this, they adopted an attitude of turning a blind eye.
It is just a verbal warning to these three families: don't hurt innocent people's lives!
At this moment, Su Chen felt guilty in his heart.
He had no intention of harming others, but the thirty innocent people were persecuted because of him.
Su Chen clenched his fists and kept the three major forces of the Wang family, the Li family, and the Chen family firmly in his heart.
He secretly swore that when his strength was enough, he would make these three families pay a terrible price.
Notices were posted on various walls in the eastern city overnight: If anyone can provide clues and catch the thief, they can get a reward of 1,000 high-grade spirit stones.
The three masters even let out cruel words, even if they dig three feet into the ground, they must find out the murderer.
Su Chen's plan to assassinate Wang Lun and others was only known to Yin Mo, but he knew in his heart that Yin Mo would definitely not betray him for money.
Su Chen sat on the wooden bench in the courtyard and fell into thought.
Shot last night, although he covered his appearance, the people of the three major families can suspect him as long as they investigate deeply.
The reason is very simple, Wang Lun and others once sent killers to assassinate themselves.
He is very suspicious that he will retaliate and go back, so as to kill Wang Lun, Li Yong and others.
This possibility is the greatest......
Just as he was pondering, there was a knock on the door outside the courtyard.
Su Chen's hand pressed on the hilt of his sword, ready to wait for the opportunity to move.
"Brother Su, it's me Yin Mo! Open the door. ”
Su Chen opened the door, Yin Mo walked in breathlessly, and then hurriedly closed the door.
"The ...... of the royal family"
"I did it!"
Su Chen nodded and continued: "They bought the killer and came to my house to assassinate me, wanting to kill me, how can I spare him." ”
"If one assassination fails, there will inevitably be a second. Instead of waiting to be killed, it is better to take the initiative. I had a lot of dreams at night, and I slaughtered them yesterday! ”
"Brother Su's courage and courage are unmatched, but since they once sent someone to assassinate you. As a result, you were assassinated on the same day, how can you not guess that it was you? Yin Mo said anxiously.
"I thought you would delay this for a while, but I didn't expect you to finish it last night. I estimate that the people of the Wang family will soon find this place, so why don't you leave with me and hide in the mountains for a while. ”
"Let's go!" Su Chen did not hesitate and made a decision immediately.
But as soon as they stepped out of the gate of the courtyard, they saw more than a dozen loose cultivators dressed in household clothes rushing on horseback and surrounding the two of them at the door.
Among these people, the leader is an old man in a gray robe, and his spiritual power is very powerful.
He rode a white horse, stopped in front of Su Chen, and asked sharply, "You are Su Chen?" ”
"It's me! I'm Su Chen! Yin Mo replied first.
The old man in gray shook his head slightly, revealing a look of disbelief, and then waved his big hand and said, "Take them all back!" ”
Su Chen pressed the hilt of his sword and was about to attack.
"Stop!"
At this time, a sentence suddenly came out, and there was a meaning in the timbre that could not be refused.
Everyone followed the prestige, only to see a man and a woman walking out of the house less than 100 meters away.
Su Chen raised his eyes and found that these two people were Li Qian and Lin Changkong.
They moved in steps, and instantly appeared opposite the gray-clothed old man, standing side by side with Su Chen.
"What does the second master of the Lin family mean? Do you have to protect this person and oppose the forces of my Li, Wang, and Chen families? The old man in gray asked rhetorically, showing displeasure.
"Li Mang! You're just the head of the Li family, can you represent the other two? ”
"You!" The old man in gray had a fire in his eyes and wanted to make a move, but the next moment he held back, and then said: "If the old man said that this kid had something to do with my son's death, would you still protect him?" ”
"Is there any evidence? If you don't have proof, get out of here! Lin Changkong said again.
"Bastard! Look for death! The old man in gray couldn't hold it anymore, and punched out in the air.
Lin Changkong threw a punch at the same time and picked it up.
The two fist marks of spiritual power condensed collided suddenly, and the waves of qi exploded in an instant.
The white horse under the crotch of the gray-clothed old man retreated again and again, and Lin Changkong remained still.
The people around him were almost overwhelmed by this wave of qi.
"My father said that whoever wants to take Su Chen away will be against my Lin family, and at that time, my father will personally take action and kill his entire clan!" Lin Changkong said domineeringly.
"Humph! Let's go! The old man in gray was helpless, so he had to snort coldly, and turned around and left with a group of family members.
"Madam, you go back first, I have something to say to him." Lin Changkong said to Li Qian beside him.
After Li Qian left, Lin Changkong's attitude immediately changed.
He glanced at Su Chen coldly a few times, and then said: "What I said just now is all a lie, I, like my father, can't wait to break your body into pieces!" I'm helping you today, just for my wife. ”
"If you are a man, you have to find a way to solve the disaster yourself, don't let my wife worry about you!"
After Lin Changkong finished speaking, he immediately shook off his robe and turned to leave, not waiting for Su Chen's response at all.
Su Chen stood in place, lost in thought.
Lin Qian probably learned that she and Li Muyang beat Wang Lun, Li Yong and others in the tavern in the past.
knew that he and Li Muyang had already had a grudge against Wang Lun and others.
So when Wang Lun and Li Yong were killed, they guessed that this incident was likely to be their own doing.
It was probably because of this that he led Lin Changkong back to his hometown in advance, so as to help him in time.
It's just that Su Chen didn't understand why Li Qian came to help him since she was already married to Lin Changkong.
She asked her husband to offend the forces of Li, Wang, and Chen to help an enemy who had made him kneel in public......
I don't know what price Li Qian paid for this.
After thinking about it, Su Chen couldn't figure out the reason, and then he could only return to the courtyard with Yin Mo.
