Chapter 267: The Shi Family's Actions
"yes! Or you can take it and see for yourself. Teacher Li smiled, and then handed the newspaper to Yun Fang.
Yun Fang took it and read the news carefully, and a comfortable smile gradually appeared on her face, as if she had put down a big stone in her heart.
Because, she learned from Yun Lian's mouth that it seems that there are some mysterious people who know evil laws and intervened in the child abduction case a few days ago.
Therefore, there has always been a layer of hidden worries in her heart, restless, afraid that those mysterious cultists will suddenly appear and snatch her daughter away again.
However, after seeing today's news, she was completely relieved.
The cult that abducted children has been completely destroyed, and even the cult leader has been killed, and her daughter Yun Lian will naturally not be in danger of being snatched away again.
Yun Fang was also a little suspicious in her heart, according to Yun Lian's account, those cultists should be very powerful, and they were easily destroyed by the police, which really made people feel a little unbelievable.
In addition, the police did not appear to say how many officers were injured in the operation.
Yun Fang relied on a woman's keen intuition and thought that the inside story might not be as simple as reported in the newspaper, and the police would not be able to succeed in one fell swoop if they did not have the help of people in the cultivation realm.
Of course, this was just Yun Fang's personal speculation, and she didn't connect Zhao Rui with this matter.
However, no matter what the inside situation is, Yun Fang feels that it has nothing to do with her, as long as Yun Lian is safe, it will be enough.
Yun Fang gently brushed the hanging hair behind her ears, revealing a small section of her fair neck and crystalline ears. Then he handed the newspaper back to Mr. Li, smiled at him lightly, and his eyes were twitching: "Thank you for the newspaper, this is indeed a very interesting news." ”
Teacher Li was shocked by the bright color she unintentionally revealed, and he was stunned for a moment, until Zhao Rui patted him on the shoulder. reminded me that I came back to my senses. Realizing his gaffe, he couldn't help coughing dryly, quickly took the newspaper, and then sighed quietly at Zhao Rui, and said, "Teacher Zhao." How blessed you are!"
Zhao Rui glanced at Yunfang's beautiful and mature face, and had to admit that Teacher Li had a point.
The next few days were relatively peaceful.
Every day after Zhao Rui gets off work, he will seize the time to practice the "Eight Desolation Killing Immortal Formula".
Although the progress of the cultivation ground is much slower than before.
However, as long as he perseveres, he will one day be able to break through the pre-earning period and enter the mid-earning period.
Other than that. When he was resting, he would sometimes take out the mysterious magic box and play with it. While carefully looking for a way to open it.
Although the box was so hard that not even the Bloodthirsty Demon Knife could shatter it, since it could be forged, it could certainly be opened. Zhao Rui is looking forward to it. The items stored in this box. What kind of monster the hell.
Shanghai, Hunan Road. In a western-style house built during the Republic of China.
Shi Yongcheng sat on the mahogany chair in the study, holding a thread-bound "Diamond Sutra", and looked at it slowly.
A faint sandalwood rose from the bronze incense burner of the royal family of the Zhou Dynasty and filled the entire space.
The cold winter has arrived, the temperature outside is already very low, but the indoor is as warm as spring, even the dragon well that has been on the desk for a long time is still steaming.
The study was very quiet, so quiet that even a needle had fallen to the ground, and I could hear it clearly.
Shi Yongcheng quietly read the words on the book, slowly turning the pages of the book he had read, as if he was intoxicated by the fragrance of books.
Suddenly, without warning, he slammed the "Diamond Sutra" in his hand on the table.
The sound of the impact was particularly abrupt and loud in this quiet study.
Shi Yongcheng's originally seemingly calm face showed an irritated look at this time.
He was so depressed now that even the Diamond Sutra could not calm him down.
In fact, Shi Yongcheng's boredom is no longer a day or two.
Since the operation of sending people to assassinate Yun Fang's mother and daughter has failed again and again, the depression in his heart has increased day by day. He really didn't understand who was secretly protecting Yun Fang and Yun Lian, sending him out to assassinate them one by one!
Shi Yongcheng got up from his seat, put his hands behind his back, and walked back and forth in the study several times.
In fact, he was worried that it wasn't just Yun Fang and Yun Lian's mother and daughter. Although the mother and daughter are the immediate relatives of the former head of the Shi family, the orphans and widows, even if they inherit the position of the head of the family, they can't make any big waves, and the real power of the family is still in his hands.
What Shi Yongcheng is really worried about is that the force behind Yun Fang and Yun Lian ---- Dong'an Yun family.
Although the Yun family is only an ancient martial family, it cannot be compared with the famous Shi family in the cultivation realm.
However, the Dong'an Yun family has a strong family history, and they also have a lot of friends in the cultivation realm.
If Yun Lian really ascended to the position of the head of the Shi family, and the Yun family fully supported it, then the privileges in his hands would be taken away by Yun Lian sooner or later, and his status and power in the family would also be marginalized!
In fact, he had always suspected that the mysterious person who secretly protected Yun Fang and Yun Lian was only invited by Yun Xiong, after all, he was Yun Fang's father, Yun Lian's grandfather, and there was enough reason to do so.
Shi Yongcheng will never allow his power, so he will be easily snatched away by others.
Because, this is not only about interests, but also about his net worth!
He looks like he's only in his forties, but in fact, he's already in his prime.
Although the life of a cultivator is longer than that of ordinary people, if he is not able to make a further breakthrough on the path of cultivation, his life will come to an end within one or two hundred years.
However, if he grasps the position of the head of the Shi family, then, using the cultivation resources of the whole clan, his cultivation may be able to continue to improve and enter the out-of-body period!
His life will be greatly extended!
The stakes are in front of him, how can he be willing to hand over the power in his hands!
"Knock Knock"
At this time, the knock on the door suddenly sounded, interrupting Shi Yongcheng's thoughts.
Shi Yongcheng took a deep breath, tried to calm his face, and then called majestically: "Come in!"
The door was pushed open, and a slightly younger man who looked a little like him walked into the study, and then shouted, "Big brother." ”
"Yonglian, why are you here? Aren't you still doing business abroad?"
Shi Yongcheng saw his own brother and suddenly appeared, looking a little surprised.
"My sister-in-law heard that you seem to be a little bored lately, so I ended the matter over there early, come back and see, what is it that makes you so unhappy?"
Shi Yonglian is not only Shi Yongcheng's younger brother, but also his right-hand man, so he didn't hide it, and said fiercely: "It's not Yunfang's business." That woman was like a thorn in the flesh, she couldn't pull it out, and it hurt me so much. ”
Shi Yonglian knew the whole thing well, and naturally knew what the eldest brother meant, so he smiled: "Since I can't pull out this thorn for the time being." I think we might as well meet with Yun Fang, have a good talk with her, probe her details, and figure out her plans. Know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles. However, we don't know anything about her, we don't know her intentions, we don't know her strength, and we're a little passive!"
Shi Yongcheng was taken aback: "Let's go to East Lake in person? That's Yunfang's territory!"
Shi Yonglian glanced at him twice, and then asked, "What's the matter, big brother, are you afraid that Yun Fang will be bad for you?"
Shi Yongcheng did not hide it in front of Shi Yonglian, nodded and said in a deep voice: "Yun Fang is guarded by a mysterious powerhouse, and several killers we sent have already folded in the hands of that mysterious powerhouse. If we rush into the East Lake, and when the time comes, Yun Fang suddenly attacks us, what should we do?"
Shi Yonglian suddenly shook his head and laughed: "Big brother, you are too worried. I don't think we need to be afraid of that strong man who hasn't shown up all this time. ”
"Oh, why?" Shi Yongcheng hurriedly asked.
"It's simple. We have sent so many killers to East Lake to assassinate Yun Fang. The mysterious powerhouse who guarded Yun Fang's mother and daughter was afraid that he already knew that we were the mastermind behind them. If that strong man is really strong enough to have no scruples, he would have come to Shanghai a long time ago and killed us, why stay by Yun Fang's side all the time and protect him secretly. How passive is that? I estimate that the strength of that mysterious powerhouse is at the same level as us, and at most it is a line higher than us. However, compared with the three ancestors of our Shi family, it must be greatly inferior. We just have to go to East Lake, as long as the three ancestors of the clan are here, we will not have any risk. ”
Shi Yongcheng was still a little hesitant: "The three ancestors did not make it clear that they supported me to become the head of the Shi family!"
Shi Yonglian smiled slightly: "However, they will definitely not sit idly by and watch a family high-level like you, there is any risk!"
Shi Yongcheng had doubts in his heart, and at this time he was completely relieved, he waved his hand, and then said, "Okay, we will leave for East Lake tomorrow!"
