Just as the Lin family master and the Han family master were silently looking at the fire in the Xu family's courtyard, a rush of footsteps came from a distance.

A young monk trotted all the way to the Lin family master and the Han family master, and respectfully hugged his fists and saluted the two family masters, "Disciple Lin Hao, meet the Lin family master and the Han family master." ”

It can be seen from the clothing that this person is the person who maintains order in the Fang City, and the rules set by the four major families of the Fang City back then: the monks responsible for maintaining order in the Qishifang City must wear uniform style of clothing, such an eye-catching sign can not only enhance the grade of the Fang City, but also play an invisible deterrent effect.

The head of the Lin family turned sideways, so that he could not only see his own disciple clearly, but also pay attention to the fire in the Xu family. The head of the Lin family had a stern expression on his face, "Lin Hao, did anything happen when you were on duty in Fang City last night?"

"Master of the family, I was on duty with the disciples of the Xu family last night. At about three o'clock in the morning (about 1:45 a.m.), about 30 people from the Xu family left Fang City. When he knew that something had happened to the Xu family, Lin Hao's face became ugly. When he heard the Lin family master's question, Lin Hao hesitated for a moment, but still told the truth in fear.

Hearing this, the Lin family leader asked in a deep voice, "Then why didn't you report the matter?"

"Please forgive the head of the family!" Lin Hao knelt on the ground and told the story in detail.

It turned out that when Lin Hao and the disciples of the Xu family were guarding the ban in Fang City last night, the disciples of the Xu family took out a jar of spiritual wine and a few plates of appetizers, and the two began to drink.

The city of Qishifang is located in the valley, and only the valley mouth is easy to access, and the rest of the location is steep stone walls. The location of Qishifang City is a little remote, and it used to happen that demon beasts often attacked Fang City at night.

So the four major families set up layers of prohibitions at the mouth of the valley, and arranged for the monks to be on duty at this location at night, and when the monks came in and out, they opened the prohibitions, and when they encountered monsters, they must immediately notify the monks in the city.

Each time the guard will arrange two monks, each of whom will carry a token that controls the ban in Fang City, and only when the two tokens are combined can the ban be opened quietly. In recent years, there have been no monsters at night, and no monks have come in and out. In the evenings, the monks on duty are very leisurely, and it is not uncommon to prepare drinks to pass the time.

Under the deliberate flattery of the Xu family's disciples, Lin Hao got drunk after a while, and fell asleep on the table.

Seeing that Lin Hao was already asleep, the Xu family disciple breathed a sigh of relief. The effect of the medicine given by the head of the family was really good, Lin Hao's sleepiness increased little by little, and before falling asleep, the person muttered that he had drunk too much.

Worried that Lin Hao would not drink, the disciples of the Xu family deliberately put medicine that could make the monk sleep in the meal.

There must be no problem with the task arranged by the head of the family now, thinking of this, the disciple of the Xu family walked up to Lin Hao and took out the token from his arms.

It may be because Lin Hao eats less vegetables, although he falls asleep, he still has some perception of the outside world. Especially the other party's action of reaching out to take the token from his arms made Lin Hao feel a little more energetic, although he still couldn't open his eyes, his ears could already hear something clearly.

At this time, the disciples of the Xu family happened to talk to each other about the number and time of leaving Fang City, and after hearing this, Lin Hao completely fell into a deep sleep.

After Lin Hao woke up, he found that the disciples of the Xu family were also asleep. I thought that someone was just a dream when I left the city, so I didn't take it to heart. If it weren't for hearing about the great changes in the Xu family, Lin Hao wouldn't have thought of this at all.

After Lin Hao finished narrating what happened, he waited for the punishment of the head of the family with fear.

The head of the Lin family snorted coldly, "If you are derelict in your duties first, and if you don't report it later, you will go to the "Demon Hunting Team" to report from now on, and you can leave the team after three years." ”

"Xie family master!" Lin Hao's face suddenly turned snow-white.

The Lin family has no inheritance in terms of "Dan, Fu, Array, and Weapon", and their family exercises are all good at fighting, so the Lin family has specially set up several teams that specialize in hunting demon beasts.

Among them, the "Demon Hunting Team" is the team with the highest level and the most dangerous team for hunting monsters among these teams. In the past, some of the cultivation and potential in the family could only be participated by the superiors, which was definitely a task for Lin Hao, who was not outstanding in strength.

After Lin Hao left, the faces of the Han family master and the Lin family master became gloomy, what was the Xu family doing? Even if they wanted to leave here, they shouldn't make such a big noise, or was there something else hidden in this?

"Lin Rui, come here!" The head of the Lin family called a disciple of the Lin family behind him to his eyes.

"You and the disciples of the Han family will lead a few people to go to the Xu family's shop together. If the Xu family's store is closed, it will be smashed open. Count all the items in the store and report them clearly. After the Lin family master finished speaking, he looked at the Han family master.

The head of the Han family also hurriedly ordered a disciple of his own to walk towards the Xu family's shop with the Lin family disciple.

Just when the two family heads were guessing the reason for the Xu family's departure, suddenly a monk ran over quickly, "Lin family master, it's not good, the ground fire in the refining room and alchemy room rented out to the outside world has suddenly been extinguished!"

Originally, the rented refining room and alchemy room belonged to the Shen family and the Lin family respectively, but since the decline of the Shen family, the refining room it occupied naturally fell into the hands of the Lin family.

As soon as the monk finished reporting, he saw another monk running not far away, and ran to the Han family master, with an anxious expression, "Family master, it's not good, the ground fire in the two alchemy rooms at home has suddenly been extinguished. ”

The head of the Han family and the head of the Lin family were shocked when they heard the news, and hurriedly rushed to their own fire.

The once prosperous Xu family is now a scorched earth, although the fire has almost been extinguished, but many places can still see curling smoke, and there are no bodies of the victims in the entire house.

There were only some worthless low-level magic weapons and inconvenient cheap refining materials left in the Xu family's shop and treasury, and it was now certain that the Xu family's departure was a well-planned matter.

The head of the Lin family and the head of the Han family stood next to the Xu family's refining room, the former Xu family's important land, the refining room made of refractory materials "polar cold stone" had been blown up beyond recognition, and the uncontrollable ground fire rose three or four feet high. Thinking that their own ground fire had been completely cool, the Lin family head and the Han family head were so angry that their faces turned pale.

This land fire is of great significance to these families, and the founding heads of the four major families settled down here, and it is by relying on this land fire that they gradually grew stronger.

Although there are a total of six ground fire exits in Qishifang City, these six exits are all formed by the same ground fire, and the Xu family blew up their own ground fire, and also destroyed the ground fire of the Han and Lin families.

"Old man Xu, if you want to go, why do you want to destroy the earth fire, isn't this to put my Han family to death?" The Han family's angry lips trembled, the Han family mainly relies on alchemy, and it is inseparable from the earth fire at all.

The territory of the Wuji faction

The people of the Xu family, who were hated by the Lin family and the Han family and wanted to be eaten alive, were a different scene at this time.

The members of the Xu family, led by the Wuji sect monks, were visiting their new residence. Listening to the introduction of the Wuji sect monk and looking at the various things in front of him, everyone in the Xu family was very excited.

"Look at how big our territory is now, we all occupy several peaks. ”

"Yes, you see that there are countless pavilions and pavilions over there, how many spirit stones will cost to build this, and its luxury is much better than the family business over there in Qishifang City. ”

"Wow, this whole mountain peak is the range of the refining room, you can see that there are six refining rooms, and each refining room is a lot larger, which is great. ”

"What? There is a separate formation prohibition around each refining room? And there are also formations at the foot of the mountain, great, in the future, the refining weapon finally doesn't have to worry about being disturbed by others!"

......

"Old man Xu Yuncheng, meet Master Wei!" At this time, in a secret room, the head of the Xu family respectfully made a big salute to the head of Wei Hongjian.

After the Xu family finished officiating at the ceremony, the head of Wei got up and picked him up, "Elder Xu, now is the time yet, I can only first wronged you and your clansmen to live in this remote place for a few years." Alas, I am ashamed of you for this!"

"The head of Wei is wrong, as the saying goes, "a man dies for a confidant", and today my Xu family can be valued by the head of Wei, and I am really honored. I, the Xu family monk, am willing to dedicate everything to the Wuji faction and to the head of the Wei family, even if I am crushed to pieces!" fanatical faith appeared on the face of the Xu family master.
