Chapter Ninety-One: Giving Respect to Others Must Have Something to Ask For
"Not necessarily, if my father hadn't interrupted me earlier, I would have deposed him a long time ago. Fang Yue snorted lightly, her angry appearance was obviously unconvinced.
"It's useless? It's because of what you said, you took the Condensing Sword to a tie with others, and you were embarrassed to say what you said about the other party. Fang Yuanxing, who was on the side, obviously didn't intend to save face for his daughter, and said unabashedly.
"I ...... That's because I didn't give it my all. Being uncovered by her father, even though there were only three people present, Fang Yue still felt a little embarrassed, buried her head and muttered, glaring at Fang Yuanxing resentfully from the corner of her eyes, as if she disliked her father for being so biased towards outsiders.
"It's coming. ”
Just as Fang Yue pouted and looked aggrieved, the black-robed old man whispered, and the eyes of the three of them all looked towards the entrance of the private room.
With a creak, the door opened, and two figures walked in, one after the other.
Xun Qiu followed the middle-aged man, up the stairs on the second floor, and then through a corridor at the top, and then entered a rather exquisite private room.
The middle-aged man who led the way gently pushed open the door and gestured to Xun Qiu with his eyes, and Xun Qiu also knew that the destination had been reached, took a deep breath, and followed up.
"Hehe, young man, let's meet again. Looking at Xun Qiu who walked into the room, the black-robed old man smiled slightly and immediately got up from his seat.
Sure enough, this old guy is doing a ghost. Complaining in his heart, Xun Qiu couldn't help but smile bitterly, but he also had to make a respectful appearance, the last time this old ghost tested himself in the suburbs of Fangyuan City, he thought that it was the Jincheng gang that sent people to cause harm, and he almost fought for his life, Xun Qiu is still a little angry when he thinks about it now.
Raising his head, he solemnly hugged his fists at the old man in black and said, "The younger generation is hateful, and I have seen the seniors." ”
"Ha Luha, he is really a hero out of a young man, and at such an age, he has the cultivation of Juyang Dacheng, and his achievements must be unlimited in the future. Fang Yuanxing, who was sitting on the main seat, exchanged glances with the old man in black, and also changed his face to appreciation, looked Xun Qiu up and down and said with a smile.
"It's ...... Fang Yuanxing had just finished speaking, Xun Qiu's eyes looked over, the young man was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked for a salute.
"Don't be so polite, please take a seat. Fang Yuanxing seemed to have expected Xun Qiu to show a surprised expression, and hurriedly pointed to a seat next to him, where a mahogany chair had been placed for a long time, and on the edge of the chair, a girl dressed in white was standing prettyly.
At this time, Fang Yue's beautiful eyes also glanced at Xun Qiu, and then glared at the former fiercely, and then withdrew it with an obvious warning.
Looks like I'm standing here honestly. Seeing that Fang Yue's face was not good, Xun Qiu secretly wiped his sweat in his heart, and naturally he didn't dare to swagger over and sit, he only felt that his back was chilling all of a sudden, this eldest lady was amazing, he had completely tasted it today.
"I don't know why the seniors called the kid to come?", Xun Qiu already knew the identity of Fang Yuanxing and Fang Yue, and this black-robed old man should probably be an older generation figure with a high status in the Fang Mansion.
No longer verbose, Xun Qiu asked directly, and then took out the brocade box from his arms, and stepped forward with both hands, "By the way, the so-called merit is not reckless, the predecessors are generous, the kid does not dare to accept it, I hope you take it back." ”
"Little friend, don't worry, take the things first, there is one thing, let's discuss it first, I believe it won't delay you much." Seeing Xun Qiu take out the brocade box, the black-robed old man pushed his palm and said with a smile.
"Hmm. Xun Qiu shook his head and nodded immediately, he had long expected that since the old man in the black robe had something to give, he would definitely ask for something.
"Let me introduce myself first, the old man is Fang Hong, the former head of the Fang family, and the one next to him is the current head of the family, Fang Yuanxing, and the consul general of the Fangyuan City Exchange. The black-robed old man first introduced Xun Qiu.
Xun Qiu nodded slightly, but he didn't show too much surprise, so after glancing at the two of them, his gaze fell directly on Fang Yue, who was wearing a delicate curve.
For Xun Qiu's gaze, the black-robed old man and Fang Yuanxing showed a smile, while Fang Yue, who was dressed in white, frowned slightly, snorted very disdainfully, and looked away.
"I invited you here this time, mainly because I want to ask for something. The black-robed old man groaned slightly, and then immediately returned to the topic, he looked at Xun Qiu and smiled lightly.
"Senior, please speak, but I'm afraid that the kid's ability is low and he won't be able to help much. Although he knew what was going on, Xun Qiu still pretended to be like a person who had nothing to do.
"Hehe, don't be modest, little ghost," the black-robed old man stared at the young man in front of him, and continued, "Have you heard of the battle for the tomb in twenty days?"
"I've heard of it. Xun Qiu replied honestly, Shen had no intention of deliberately leading him to the woods outside the city, and that was what he said, but he rejected him at that time.
After hearing this, the black-robed old man smiled knowingly and continued: "The so-called battle to seize the tomb is just a means for our Shen Lei family to resolve disputes, which has been a common practice in the past, but this time the Soul Condensing Realm Cemetery is a little more precious. ”
"The ...... left by the powerhouses of the Soul Condensation Realm"
Xun Qiu muttered, last time I heard Shen unintentionally say that he had found a cemetery of a master of condensation outside Fangyuan City, but he didn't expect that such a master would appear in this small city.
"The chaotic stone hill in the southeastern suburbs of Fangyuan City was originally a territory controlled by our Fang family, but since the ancient tomb of the master of the Soul Condensing Realm appeared, it has become no longer peaceful, and the Shen Lei family has also been involved, so the current ownership has always been a problem. ”
"The Fang family and the Shen family have been friends for generations, so it is naturally easy to distribute them, but it is a little difficult for this Jincheng Gang to make peace. When talking about the Lei family, the smile on the cheeks of the black-robed old man was also slightly unnatural, this Jincheng Gang is owned by the Lei family, and it has developed well and prospered in recent years, and the two families are obviously not small grievances.
Xun Qiu nodded silently, if this matter is really true, then the things in the tomb are really a little exciting.
"According to the prior agreement, the Fang and Shen families have been friends for generations, so they stand aside, and they only need to give three places in total, and the Lei family itself will give three places, which is limited to the choice of the younger generation, and they can find foreign aid to help. The black-robed old man then took the trouble to explain for Xun Qiu.
"Do you want the kid to take the third place after Shen Wuyi and Miss Fang Yue to compete for the ownership of the ancient tomb?" Speaking of this, Xun Qiu's gaze unnaturally turned to the white-clothed girl who had been staring at him over there, but what he got was still a hateful big white eye, and he was not an ignorant person, so he hurriedly turned his gaze when he saw this.
"Well, that's good. The old man in the black robe nodded with satisfaction, Xun Qiu took the initiative to say it like this, so as not to let him waste his lips and tongue again.
frowned slightly, as if he was a little reluctant, Xun Qiu shook his head and said: "The kid thinks that this matter is a little inappropriate, the kid is a nobody, and he is not elegant at all, besides, Fangyuan City is full of talents, with the strength of your mansion, it should be easier to find a powerful junior powerhouse." ”
"Hmph! hypocrisy!"
Xun Qiu had some modest words of prevarication, but it provoked Fang Yue on the side to be very angry, and the disdainful words blurted out, as if he didn't give face at all.
"Xiaoyou don't have to be too humble, with your strength, in Fangyuan City, you are enough to surpass any junior, you are worried about the Lei family, please be relieved, after this matter, you are the guest of our Fang family, and the old man guarantees that the Lei family will not dare to touch you." ”
The black-robed old man was once able to take charge of this huge Fang family, and he was naturally a person who knew the subtleties, and after listening to the shirking of revenge, he understood that the focus of the young man's concern in front of him was not in his own strength, but for fear of offending these so-called general forces. In fact, at this point, his guess was not accurate, for a Xun Qiu who killed all the masters of the Lei family before and after, how could he be afraid of the Lei family, he just wanted not to fight the Lei family head-on.
