Chapter 119:-for-tat, don't admit it

Another hour passed, and the seven meridians slowly stopped transporting the spiritual energy, and at this moment, two-thirds of the Gang Qi had accumulated in the Mud Pill Palace, if it continued, Xiao Yao believed that it would not be long before he would make another breakthrough, and the best explanation for this strange breakthrough might be because of the benefits brought by the purple qi accumulated in the body.

The sky is getting brighter, Xiao Yao opened his dark eyes, felt the continuous power in his body, and his mood was extremely comfortable, although he could not release Gang Qi during the Qi refining period, but with this kind of basic hoarding, I believe that when he breaks through to the martial arts cultivation period, the overall strength of the moves and the dark energy of Gang Qi will be doubled and increased several times.

The morning light swayed in the courtyard of the Wu family, Xiao Yao simply cleaned up and wanted to go out, but at this time, Zhou Shun came to the room.

"Is there anything wrong with running here so early?" Xiao Yao asked curiously.

"A few days ago, the son of the third elder of the Wang family was assassinated, and the spearhead was pointed at the Wu family, and now the middle and high-level of the clan are studying countermeasures. Zhou Shun said.

Eyebrows raised slightly, Xiao Yao said suspiciously: "How could the Wang family recognize that it was the Wu family?"

"The area under the jurisdiction of the Wang family is south, and the two murderers committed the murder on the main street, and there are only two directions to choose when they escape, either to go west back to Zhang's house, or to go east to Wu's house, obviously they saw the murderer fleeing to the east of Wu's area. Zhou Shun explained.

Hearing this, Xiao Yao felt a pang in his heart, he had neglected such an obvious loophole, fortunately they had changed their faces, otherwise a catastrophe would have come.

"What do the senior leaders of the Wu family say about this matter?" Xiao Yao asked.

Sitting on the chair and slapping the table hard, Zhou Shun said in a deep voice: "Of course I am very angry, if the hired person dies, he will die, but now it is the core members of the three major families who are dead, the Wang family will definitely not give up, and will definitely report and revenge until the Wu family hands over the murderer." ”

Nodding, Xiao Yao said suspiciously, "You didn't come here just to tell me this, right?"

With frowns furrowed and a slightly complicated look in his eyes, Zhou Shun said tentatively: "The Wu family has been investigating this matter, and they have locked the murderer on us outsiders, can you tell me, where did Mr. Huo go?"

"You suspect that Uncle Huo is the murderer. Xiao Yao said in a deep voice with an expressionless face.

"Brother Zimang, don't get me wrong, I'm not stupid enough to wear a pair of pants with the Wu family, it's just that Mr. Huo's disappearance has been noticed by the higher-ups. Zhou Shun explained.

Xiao Yao was silent, this matter is indeed troublesome, Uncle Huo's disappearance has created a false impression of absconding in fear of crime, which will inevitably make the Wu family's high-level people suspicious, once Uncle Huo comes back, they will definitely be arrested and tortured, but with their own and Uncle Huo's personalities, how can they be slaughtered by others, if they don't do it well, they will have to fight, and then they will become rats crossing the street and everyone will chase and beat them.

"Do you have any good ways to resolve this crisis?" Xiao Yao asked.

After hesitating, Zhou Shun said in a deep voice: "Actually, it is a good thing for the Wu family that the death of a core member of the Wang family is a good thing for the Wu family, they are just worried about the Wang family's revenge, as long as we have enough strength to repel the Wang family, the high-level Wu family will not investigate who is the murderer." ”

Exhaled, Xiao Yao said helplessly: "It's okay, then trouble Brother Zhou to keep an eye on it, and if there is anything going on in the Wang family, notify me immediately." ”

Slightly stunned, it was not difficult for Zhou Shun to hear what Xiao Yao seemed to admit in his words, thinking of this, he couldn't help but shudder, but he didn't ask anything more, after all, human life is at stake, it is better to be cautious.

The two talked for a while, and Zhou Shun left.

In the next two days, the seriousness of the matter completely exceeded Xiao Yao's expectations, the Wang family's revenge flame has spread to other industries of the Wu family, but the sea area is very calm, it seems that the Wang family also considered that the sea area is a difficult bone to gnaw, and arranged a large number of strong people to sit here, so they turned around and began to smash and loot the ancillary industries such as money villages, casinos, and restaurants.

For the unscrupulous actions of the Wang family, the high-level Wu family is also helpless, after all, the manpower is limited, and the personnel who are on guard in the sea area do not dare to transfer away at all, this is clearly a plan to transfer the tiger away from the mountain, once the sea area is occupied by the Wang family, the Zhang family will inevitably intervene, and then the Wu family will come to the end of the road, and now the strength is balanced The three major families return all their scruples to each other, as long as the strength is slightly tilted, the remaining two families will not be merciful, and they will definitely beat the water dogs.

Wu family hall.

"Where is that old guy hiding?" Great Elder Wu Chengjin asked in a deep voice.

"I don't know. Glancing at the head of the family, Wu Yantian, and the two elders, Xiao Yao said lightly.

"I don't care how beautiful you used to be in Dongzhou, now this is the Heavenly Fire Domain, and the Wu family can't tolerate anyone to go wild. Squinting his eyes slightly, Great Elder Wu Chengjin said slightly angrily.

"If there is conclusive evidence to prove that Uncle Huo is the murderer, I naturally have nothing to say, but at present, Uncle Huo has no one alive and no corpse, so you just put the basin on his head, isn't it a little too unfair, how to say that we are also part of the Wu family. Xiao Yao said.

Hearing this, the head of the family, Wu Yantian, frowned slightly, obviously this sentence was inserted into his weakness, although they are all outsiders, but they have also contributed a lot to the Wu family, if this matter is not handled well, it will inevitably cause their dissatisfaction, especially at this sensitive time, it is not a wise choice to lose people's hearts.

"Zimang, the family didn't think that Qianhuo was the murderer, but he left suddenly, how can he give us an explanation, if he says just leave, how should I manage the family in the future. The head of the family, Wu Yantian, said quietly.

Bending over, Xiao Yao said: "The head of the family is very right, but Uncle Huo is missing, not leaving, these are two meanings." ”

"It's a bit of a coincidence that Wang He disappeared just in time for him to die. With a cold snort, Great Elder Wu Chengjin said unhappily.

Looking for himself today, Xiao Yao knew that it was not good, seeing that they were obviously looking at the teacher and asking for guilt, he fixed his mind, turned his head to look at the Great Elder, and said with an expressionless face: "If the Great Elder wants to say anything, just say it directly, if I don't explain it clearly today, it is estimated that it will be difficult to get out of the hall." ”

"It's a little bold at a young age, the assassination of Wang He is two murderers, Qianhuo is missing, and the remaining one is the most suspicious of you, the old man advises you to confess truthfully. Great Elder Wu Chengjin said coldly.

With a cold snort, Xiao Yao smiled and said, "I knew that the Wu family treated us like this, so it was better to go directly to the other two families, at least we didn't have to suffer such a big wrong." ”

The head of the family and the two elders looked at each other, obviously not finding a flaw in Xiao Yao's straightforward words, but apart from the two of them, who were the most suspicious, they really couldn't think of anyone else.

"Do you have evidence to prove that you two are innocent?" Wu Yantian, the head of the family, said lightly.

After hesitating, Xiao Yao smiled and said: "It's very simple, we don't know Wang He, why did we risk our lives to go to the Wang family area to kill him." ”

"This ......"

The head of the family was speechless, thinking about it carefully, it was true, they had just come to the Heavenly Fire Domain and were unfamiliar with the place, and there was indeed no motive to kill.

Xiao Yao looked at the head of the family with a calm expression, but his heart was beating "dong dong", he had to pretend at this time, he knew from the moment he entered the hall that this was a tit-for-tat scene, if he admitted it, the Wu family would definitely hand him over to the Wang family in order to avoid trouble, and he couldn't say a trace of emotion for these bullshit families.

"You stand down first!" waved his hand, and the head of the house ordered.

Hearing this, Xiao Yao breathed a sigh of relief and turned to leave.

Looking at Xiao Yao's departing back, the head of the family said in a deep voice, "What do the two elders think of this matter?"

Coughing lightly, Great Elder Wu Chengjin said: "What this son said makes some sense, did we let the Zhang family secretly put Chen Cang on the table?"

"Oh, the Great Elder means that the Zhang family deliberately blamed us. The corners of his eyes twitched slightly, and the head of the family, Wu Yantian, said in shock.

"It's very likely, killing people in broad daylight, and the murderer ran back to the Wu family under their noses, doesn't that explain everything. Great Elder Wu Chengjin inferred.

"Makes sense. ”

Nodding, the head of the family, Wu Yantian's expression was slightly solemn.

"I don't see it at all, haven't you noticed that this son's expression is too calm? The old man has read countless people, and the more he has done bad things, the more he will pretend to be calm in front of others, and I think there must be something wrong with him. Second Elder Wu Moyu spoke.
