Chapter 165: Two Great Families
The huge Zuoqiu family, under the siege of the Eastern Qi Border Army, has become a yellow flower of tomorrow in just one hour.
And the remnants of the disciples of the Zuoqiu family who were not dead knew about the changes in the Zuoqiu family in recent months, and after Fang Rui proposed the demon cultivator who was still fainting, the Zuoqiu family's collusion with the demon cultivator had become an iron case.
When they saw the unconscious demon cultivator thrown out by Fang Rui, everyone confirmed that the Zuoqiu family was indeed in collusion with the demon cultivator.
The biggest difference between demon cultivators and monks is that the aura that permeates their bodies - monk cultivation is mainly based on absorbing the aura of heaven and earth, and the breath is lighter, while demon cultivation is mainly based on devouring blood qi, and their aura is more gloomy and heavy.
This demon cultivator has a flash of blood light on his body, and he is at least a demon cultivator of the fifth grade.
"Nine innate five elements essence was found in the secret vault...... This is a specialty of the Demon Cultivation Continent! ”
Ji Ning said to the other three commanders, and the three commanders nodded at the same time, this time to exterminate a family that is connected with demon cultivation, everyone has a lot of credit.
"Princess Qingfeng, this friend of yours is really powerful, he actually supported the siege of the entire Zuoqiu family for so long, and protected the evidence in the secret vault from being destroyed!
Fang Rui smiled: "Contemptible Fang Rui, just an ordinary student of Jixia Academy. ”
Hearing Fang Rui's name, Ji Ning understood a little, after all, now Fang Rui was already a name that moved all over the world, and looking at the momentum that Fang Rui showed now, it was enough to compare with the sixth-rank peak cultivator, coupled with his characteristics of leapfrogging the challenge, it seemed to be a matter of course to persist for so long under the attack of the Zuoqiu family's mountain protection array.
At this moment, a soft voice came from outside the army.
After exterminating the Zuoqiu family, the four border armies surrounded this place like an iron bucket, blocking the forces of the other four families outside - after all, almost all of the Zuoqiu family had collusion with the demon cultivators, if the Qiao family, the Yuqiu family, and the Sheqiu family who were close at hand knew nothing about it...... It's too unreasonable.
And at this time, this soft voice came from outside the border army.
"In the lower red warp and weft, I have come to see your commanders. ”
At the same time as this soft voice, it was a rough voice: "In Xia Qiao Yuanzhou, come to visit together!"
The four commanders were stunned at the same time - these two people were the heads of the Hong family and the Qiao family, two of the only dozens of ninth-grade peak cultivators in the Eastern Qi Kingdom!
This incident actually alarmed these two big people who are said to have not shown up for decades, but are just constantly cultivating?
Ji Ning glanced at Ji Qingfeng, Ji Qingfeng nodded, Ji Ning calmed down and said loudly: "Please come in!"
The army immediately moved out of the way, and two figures strolled in at the same time.
Walking on the left is an old man wearing a red robe, with white eyebrows and two long white eyebrows, although his hair and beard including his eyebrows are white, but this old man's skin is as delicate as a baby, it is the head of the Red family, the peak monk of the Nine Grades Red Jingwei.
Walking on the right is a tall old man, dignified in appearance, with a sense of power between his gestures, it is the head of the Qiao family, another monk at the peak of the nine grades Qiao Yuanzhou.
The Nine Rank Peak Cultivators, even if they did not deliberately release their true qi, the huge coercion they carried also made the more than 200,000 border soldiers of Dongqi feel uncomfortable at the same time.
Ji Ning and the other three commanders greeted him at the same time.
"I've seen two heads of the house. Ji Ning arched his hand.
"That's it, this time the Zuoqiu family is willing to fall, and even the commanders have to personally lead the troops to quell the rebellion, my Hong family and the Qiao family are really ashamed, and there are a lot of injured sons and daughters under your command, this is the healing secret medicine of our red family, a little meaning, not a tribute. ”
Hong Jingwei smiled and put a storage bag in Ji Ning's hand.
Ji Ning was also not polite, and accepted it directly: "The head of the red family is in his mind, and a certain family is ashamed." ”
Qiao Yuanzhou said: "If it weren't for the commander who led the army to quell the rebellion, we wouldn't have known that the Zuoqiu family was so willing to degenerate! If such a thing happened in Penglai County, the rest of our four families would not be able to escape the blame, and please return to the king, this time the matter has nothing to do with our four families, we are willing to let go of our secret vault and let the king send his masters to search." ”
"yes, yes. Hong Jingwei said with a smile: "We naturally have nothing to say to others, if the king can come by royal car, it will be a blessing for my Hong family and Qiao family." ”
The two sang and harmonized, expressing their attitude of not being afraid of being suspicious and letting the royal family search - after all, if something happened to the Zuoqiu family, the surrounding families were inextricably linked, and if they did not show their attitude at this time, I am afraid it would be easier to arouse suspicion.
"The two heads of the family are polite, the Qiao family of the Hong family has always been an important pillar of the coast of the East China Sea, my humerus of Daqi, the Zuoqiu family is looking for a dead end, and it has nothing to do with the Qiao family of the Hong family, I will explain this matter by myself, and please don't worry about the two family owners. Ji Ning replied.
"Thank you, Commanders. ”
Hong Jingwei arched his hand with a smile, but his eyes fell on Fang Rui's body: "This young man is the hero who resisted the Zuoqiu family's mountain protection array without falling down and kept the key evidence, right?"
Fang Rui clenched his fists and didn't talk.
"I heard from afar just now, the little hero seems to be named Fang Rui, dare to ask if he is a disciple of the middle courtyard of Jixia Academy, the proud protégé of Master Tingyu, the Fang Rui who was born with no nine veins?" Qiao Yuanzhou shrugged his eyebrows, and then asked.
"It was under the order that I didn't expect the head of the Qiao family to also hear my name. Fang Rui laughed slightly.
"No, no, it's not just that the head of the Qiao family has heard your name, but even the old man is also a little hero of the other party who has been famous for a long time. Hong Jingwei said with a smile.
At this time, even Ji Qingfeng was curious: "Why is this?"
Hong Jingwei didn't answer directly, but turned his head and raised his head: "Ling'er, don't you want me to come over quickly?" Qiao family Xiaoliu, don't wait for your family master to tell you to leave!"
After this call, two familiar figures quickly appeared in front of Fang Rui.
Hongling, Qiao Liu.
These two children of the big family who had used Fang Rui to make a breakthrough, but let Fang Rui embark on the road of breakthrough, and then they were scared by Fang Rui to the point of urine, so they appeared in front of Fang Rui with low eyebrows......
"These two descendants are ignorant, they have offended Fang Xiaoying, and I have reprimanded them fiercely after hearing about this...... Although they are said to be the children of my Hong family and the Qiao family, their actions are very contrary to the training of my Red family, so I have already punished them, and I hope that Fang Xiaoying will not mind. ”
Hong Jingwei pointed at Hongling and Qiao Liu, and then said lightly.
Hongling raised his head slightly, and then Fang Rui showed a pear blossom with a rain-like expression: "Fang ...... Brother Fang, I know it's wrong, and I will definitely never do it again in the future!"
And Qiao Liu's expression was even more exaggerated, and he knelt down in front of Fang Rui with a "poof", and said loudly: "I damn it, I had a bad heart at the time, fortunately, Senior Fang Rui, you didn't suffer any damage, junior brother, I will definitely not have a finger added to Senior Fang Rui's body in the future, otherwise, heaven and earth will hate it!"
Fang Rui was stunned - which one is this? Even if his identity is different from before now, he won't let the descendants of the two big families apologize to him, right?
Hong Jingwei said with a smile: "Since I knew what happened at that time, I wanted to find such an opportunity for these two unscrupulous disciples to apologize to Fang Rui...... I still hope that Fang Rui has a lot of you, so spare them this time. ”
Fang Rui had already regained his composure at this moment, then laughed, took two steps forward, and helped Hongling, who was bent over, and Qiao Liu, who was kneeling, to help him up.
"The past, even if it's over, I hope the two juniors can study well in Jixia Academy. ”
"Okay, Fang Xiaoying is worthy of being open-minded, in the future, I also hope that Fang Xiaoying will have time to come to Qiao's house or Hong's house as a guest, I will definitely open the door to welcome!" Qiao Yuanzhou laughed heroically.
"The two of us are here just to let the commanders and Princess Qingfeng testify, since the matter is over, I will retire. Hongjingwei arched his hand, then turned around and left with Qiao Yuanzhou, taking Hongling Qiao Liu, and then, the surrounding children of the Hong family and the Qiao family quickly retreated.
Fang Rui looked at their departing figures, thoughtful.
"Okay, now that the matter is over, I'm going to return to the station...... However, this is the scene, and it is estimated that the imperial court will send experts to investigate next, and I will leave two battalions of men and horses to guard it, how about it?"
Ji Ning was discussing with the other three commanders, while Ji Qingfeng came to Fang Rui's side with Zhao Wushuang, and said strangely, "What do these two old guys want to do?"
"Fang Rui, your face is really big, the two masters of the Nine Grades Peak have to ask the juniors to apologize to you......" Zhao Wushuang said with a smile.
"No kidding...... What they want to do, I don't know, with their status, there is no need to put on such a show to me at all, and now they can only see the moves, I can't forgive Hongling and Qiao Liu, but if they have anything unfavorable to me, I will still fight back against them. Fang Rui shook his head.
was chatting, but Ji Ning walked over with a stern expression.
"Princess Qingfeng, Fang Rui, Miss Zhao, we're in a bit of trouble right now. ”
"What's wrong?" Ji Qingfeng frowned and asked.
"We are now preparing to collect our troops and return to Penglai County, but this demon cultivator, we don't have much ability to press him back now...... He is a demon cultivator, he has no identity jade card, and he can't pass the guò teleportation array, we can only use manpower to bring him back, and it is not appropriate to stay here for a long time, but if it is to send someone to return to the royal capital Zibo through the guò teleportation array first, and then let the royal family send a master, it will come and go, and the time will be delayed for a long time, so what I think is to send a more capable team to press this demon cultivator back, and at the same time, we will notify the royal capital through the guò teleportation array, and let them send a master to respond. ”
"What's the use of talking to us about this kind of thing?" Ji Qingfeng asked strangely.
"The strongest of us here is the four of us commanders, and the next ones are only five-grade cultivators, we don't know what kind of conspiracy the demon cultivators have, and we don't know how many demon cultivators there are in our country...... The four of us commanders can't leave the station without permission, Fang Rui is now a six-rank master, and it is the most suitable for him to be able to confront the monks of the Escape Period, and let him take people back. Ji Ning finally said his true purpose.
"Why don't you just bring it back to the garrison of the army? at least the military camp is heavily guarded, and there are all kinds of defensive equipment, even if the Demon Cultivator's Retreat Monk comes to attack, it can support it for a long time, enough for the royal family to send a master to respond. Ji Qingfeng asked rhetorically.
Ji Ning showed a wry smile: "Four garrisons, 240,000 sergeants, how many of them are the children of the Hong family and the Qiao family, do you know?"
