Volume 1 of the Witch Book Chapter 42: The Storm Rises
Inside the Xin family's house.
The head of the family, Xin Haitian, sat on the main seat of the council hall with a very serious face, and even the other two deputy heads of the Xin family, Xin Jianghe and Xin Changchun, came over this time. The two major nursing homes of the Xin family, "Iron Palm" Zhang Tieshan and "Copper Hammer" Zhang Tongshan, also sat on the chair behind them at this time. Below are the important stewards and hall masters at all levels of the Xin family, which has shown that this family meeting of the Xin family is very important.
However, in addition to the people from the Xin family, there were two other people who were not from the Xin family who participated in the Xin family meeting this time. One of them, a man in his thirties, dressed in a Confucian shirt, looked polite, but there was a scar on his face that was quite an eyesore and insulting. There is also an old man in his sixties, dressed in dirty coarse linen clothes and sloppy, but his face is full of red, and his hair is also black and shiny, if you must say that his special feature is that his hair is tied up by long hair, but his eyes seem to be drooping.
It is very strange for an old man in his sixties to be able to maintain his hair black and long, and it is even more strange to tie it up like this.
"Although our Xin family is beautiful in Liuhuang City on the surface, it is actually stormy. After Xin Haitian said a word, he glanced at the Xin family disciples present, and then continued: "I think the Xin family knows that the people of the 'Evil Wolf Gang' slapped my Xin family in the face a few days ago, and even killed many descendants of my Xin family. In the past few days, many members of my Xin family have been brutally murdered one after another, and we don't even know who to settle accounts with. If this continues, our Xin family will not need others to deal with it, and it will be finished by itself. ”
"And the latest news I have gotten that the leader of the 'Evil Wolf Gang' has met with Feng Yuntai, the head of the Feng family, and the two sides are planning to join forces and want to deal with our Xin ......family together."
When Xin Haitian said this, the expression on his face became more and more serious.
"The head of the family will tell the crisis, let's all figure out a way together, my Xin family has been in Liuhuang City for so many years, how many ups and downs have passed, is it not even possible to make this little wave now?" The person who spoke was the second head of the Xin family, the deputy head of the family, Xin Jianghe.
"The two brothers are right, my Xin family can stand in Liuhuang City for decades, I haven't seen any strong winds and waves, how can I be afraid to retreat because of the little crisis in front of me! But in my opinion, this matter must have been done by the people of the Feng family. You can imagine who else in Liuhuang City would dare to go against such a blatant provocation as our Xin family?"
Everyone in the audience whispered to each other, quite feeling that this was reasonable. The murderer's murder was disemboweled, and his methods were extremely cruel, who else could openly go against the Xin family, except for the Feng family?
Xin Haitian also nodded and said: "What the second brother and the third brother said is good, although there is no real evidence, but this blood debt is definitely right on the head of the Feng family." In addition, let me introduce it to you. In addition to the descendants of my Xin family, I was also fortunate to invite Yao Chonghua, the ancestor of the Five Elements Sect of the Xiuxian Sect, and Sun Haoran, the head of the 'Junzi Sect', who came to my Xin family's family meeting today. ”
After Xin Haitian finished speaking, everyone was in an uproar, and they all got up and respectfully saluted the two "immortals". At the same time, they also cast their eyes on the head of the family, Xin Haitian, they didn't know that the head of their family was so unfathomable that he could have a relationship with an immortal cultivator.
Sun Haoran's face remained unchanged, but as soon as the feather fan opened, he calmly fanned himself. But Yao Lao Zu seemed to be very useful, squinted his eyes, stroked his beard, and nodded with satisfaction.
Xin Haitian continued: "The two immortals happened to pass through the Yellow City, and seeing the evil spirit in the Feng family, it was expected that there would definitely be evil cultivators in the Yellow City. Therefore, he accepted my invitation and helped my Xin family to get rid of the scourge of the feudal family. ”
Speaking of this, Sun Haoran of the Junzi Gate put away the paper fan and said expressionlessly: "Although I promised to help the Xin family with my ancestor, after all, the two of us are immortal cultivators, and we can only deal with evil cultivators, as for the battle between mortals, I think it's better for us not to intervene......"
Yao Laozu on the side suddenly opened his eyes and said with a cold snort: "Today's young people are becoming more and more arrogant, relying on their own learning a little bit of ability, they show off everywhere and harm the world. Heavenly heart is the most benevolent, I cultivate immortal monks uphold the righteousness of the righteous path, if you don't kill this evil man, my ancestor I will practice for decades. ”
Sun Haoran's face turned pale, and then his face collapsed, and he was silent.
"Yao Ancestor, don't worry, the Feng family has evil cultivators, and we all want to kill them as soon as possible. However, this evil cultivator does have a very strong ability, and has repeatedly harmed living beings and used extremely cruel methods, but there is no trace of it. This time, since he wanted to do it, he had to hit it with one blow, and decided not to let him have any more respite. Besides, my Xin family has been brutalized many times, and I will never stand idly by. ”
Xin Changchun, the third master sitting on the left, immediately stood up and bowed down and said. After he finished speaking, his face turned pale and clenched the fist in his hand, as if the incomparable anger in his heart could be seen from his trembling body.
Originally, the Xin family asked Yao Laozu and the others to help, but now that Xin Changchun said this, it directly became the Xin family helping Yao Laozu.
Yao Lao Ancestor is old and refined, he can't hear this kind of words, and after looking at Xin Changchun coldly, his face sank, and he didn't say a word.
Xin Haitian snorted coldly and said, "Third brother, you shut up for me and put away your little cleverness! The two immortal seniors are here to help my Xin family this time." ”
Xin Changchun couldn't buy it well, his face turned red, he sat on the side, and stopped talking.
Xin Haitian's face gradually returned to calm, and he said, "There is another surprising thing. Everyone still doesn't know, maybe the Feng family is because of the lack of a thief, or maybe it's because of the news that the two immortals helped my Xin family, just this morning, the Feng family suddenly sent someone to send a letter, and suddenly put forward a request for a meeting and peace talks......"
"What?" The people below suddenly exploded like a pot, and there was an uproar.
You must know that in recent times, the Xin family has been panicked and their morale is low. Besides, if the Feng family and the Evil Wolf Gang join forces, they will definitely have the upper hand in the forces of Liuhuang City and suppress the Xin family. Under such favorable circumstances, how could the Feng family suddenly ask for peace talks? Could there be any tricks involved? This aroused the suspicion of many people.
Although the Xin family has received the help of the two immortals, Sun Haoran has already made his attitude clear, only punishing evil cultivators, and not intervening in the mundane grievances of the Xin Feng family.
All of a sudden, the voices of the Xin family agreeing to the peace talks and disagreeing with the peace talks sounded one after another.
......
On the streets of Liuhuangcheng, the red figures of a man and a woman stood in the crowd, which was a little eye-catching, attracting pedestrians to keep looking back.
The girl was dressed in a red dress like a red flame, wearing a pair of small red shoes at her feet, and her head was full of small wildflowers.
The male boy has insolent black hair, coupled with the flowing red robe and soul-like dark eyes, giving people a sense of oppression in heaven and earth. He stood there quietly, standing in the backlight, with flying eyebrows, windless and automatic black hair, slightly raised lip line, indescribable extreme charm, endless elegance.
"Little man, I didn't expect you to wear a brocade dress, but you are so handsome and chic, it seems like a different person. Jiang Wei covered his mouth and chuckled.
Zhao Hong shook his head and swept through the newly bought clothes Jiang Wei bought for him, and couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded.
This Jiang Wei is a daughter, so he naturally thinks that red is good-looking, but he is a dignified hot-blooded man, and he actually wears a red suit, and he himself feels a little ridiculous.
But Jiang Wei had good intentions, and she only bought this set of red robes at that time, and Zhao Hong was inconvenient to go against her wishes, so she put it on the spot.
Zhao Hong wanted to reply to her, but at this moment, a commotion suddenly broke out in the crowd.
"Get out of the way!" a ragged, dusty, mantled creature burst in, roaring deafeningly, and the crowd around him was knocked to the ground.
Zhao Hong frowned, his figure flashed ghostly, and he appeared in front of the man. I saw Zhao Hong reach out and hit a screen with a thick palm power, shrouding the person underneath him, and with a slight pull, he fell the person to the ground.
With a "poof", the man spat out a mouthful of blood.
He stared at his bloodshot eyes with a puzzled expression. With his chapped lips, which were full of white skin, he said hoarsely to Zhao Hong, "It's you......"
Zhao Hong was stunned, and after a closer look, he immediately recognized this person, it was Zhang Tieshan, the "iron palm" of the Xin family, who was known as "swaggering under the mountain, invincible with iron palms".
"The Xin family is finished, it's all finished...... Xin Haitian, the head of the Xin family, died, and Xin Jianghe, the second leader, also died, and many people died, almost all of them died. Zhang Tieshan's face was like ashes, his expression was crazy, and he roared hoarsely.
When Zhao Hong heard this, he was a little stunned, and before he could open his mouth to ask, suddenly a sharp alarm whistle sounded somewhere in Liuhuang City.
"Toot ......"
Then there was a muffled bang.
"Wow, Wow......"
"Bang Bang ......"
Immediately afterwards, countless shouts of killing rang out, one after another in the city. There was also a faint sound of weapons colliding with weapons, and it seemed that at this moment, the entire Liuhuang City had become a huge killing battlefield.
Zhao Hong's face changed, he glanced at Jiang Wei, he didn't care to listen to Zhang Tieshan continue, the two of them flickered, and they had come to the city wall. Zhao Hong cautiously looked around the city, and then looked out of the city.
His expression was very unsightly, and he looked a little gloomy. Because not far away, there were fires rushing to the sky, figures longing, and some swords and swords flashing constantly, and everywhere there were sounds of fighting, alarms, and angry reprimands.
"Little barbarian, the two forces of the Xin family and the Feng family have begun to eat dogs, and now it is lively and beautiful. Oh, you see, those people who are supposed to be the 'Evil Wolf Gang'......" Jiang Wei pointed in one direction and said with some schadenfreude.
Zhao Hong's eyes were uncertain, and he thought about it. He didn't have a good impression of the Xin family and the Feng family, as well as the people of the "Evil Wolf Gang", and now that the three forces were biting, he didn't want to help any of them. However, he remembered Xin Yu, that is, Xingtian, and the cold and weird Xia Ruoxi.
After all, these two people are in the Xin family, how could the Xin family lose so quickly?
While he was thinking, suddenly his soul consciousness moved, and a familiar figure appeared in front of him.
"It turned out to be him! It seems that the road is really narrow!" Zhao Hong sneered on the corner of his mouth, and a trace of hideous color appeared on his face.
