177 Retaliation
Marne City is also so big, and the power of the City Lord's Mansion has penetrated into almost every corner of the city. Kevin had just died here, and there was immediately relevant information sent to the City Lord's Mansion over there. Wood, the lord of Marne, is working tirelessly on a concubine for the descendants of the Ferdinand family. Just as he was on the rise, there was a knock on the door, and Wood was immediately stunned. Wood angrily put on his clothes and strode to the door. "You're fucking in a hurry to die, didn't you say don't bother me if you have something?" Wood angrily pulled open the door and scolded him in a slashing manner. The guard was stunned and didn't know how to reply.
"What's the fuss? Fuck me up, if it's not important, I'll execute you right away. Seeing that the guards dared to be in a daze at this time, Wood's anger couldn't help but rise a lot. His face was flushed, and he gritted his teeth and grabbed the guard's collar for a few slaps. The guard was woken up by Wood, knowing that he had just made Wood angry with his gaffe. The guard trembled and said cautiously, "Report to the city lord, young master, something happened to him." "Young master, if he has an accident, he will have an accident, has he committed less crimes? This time it is the girl who has harmed someone's family, just go back and send some money." You're going to bother me with this little thing, and I'm really angry. ”
When he heard Kevin Wood, he was angry, but Wood was also helpless. Wood is almost forty years old, but he has only one son, Kevin. How can you say that he can't spoil Kevin? It is precisely because of Wood's indulgence and pampering that Kevin is so delighted that he is now provoking Xue Xi and dying. If you have to accept all the causes and circumstances, there will be antecedents and consequences. Wood didn't take the guard's words to heart, waving his hand for the guard to stand down. He can't blame Wood, he's been through so much of this that he's going to be numb now. The guard saw that Wood turned around and was about to enter the room, and his heart was anxious, and he hurriedly spoke, "City Lord, the young master was killed in Drunken Cloud Residence, and even the corpse capital could not be preserved. The guard cautiously glanced up at Wood, who had not been willing to report the matter in the first place. However, his captain put this matter on him. The guards are very nervous right now.
Wood was stunned when he heard the news of Kevin's murder. It took Wood a moment to react, he grabbed the guard's collar like crazy and shook it vigorously, "What did you just say? Say it again! If you make a mistake, I'll dismantle you!" "Lord City, Lord City, don't be impatient. The informant of Drunken Cloud House saw with his own eyes that Young Master Kevin was killed by a woman, and then set fire to Young Master Kevin's body. Those who were there could testify. Wood listened to the guard's words, and the strength of his hands gradually became less and less, and finally he only grabbed the guard's collar in a sluggish manner. At this time, Wood had only one belief in his mind, to kill that hateful woman and avenge his son!" Say, where is that woman?" Wood raised his blood-red eyes and stared fiercely at the guard. The guard was startled by Wood's appearance, forced himself to calm the panic in his heart, and said tremblingly, "It is said that that woman stayed in the Drunken Cloud Residence after killing Master Kevin. At least it wasn't gone when the news came. ”
"Okay, well, have the guts, kill my son and dare to stay, since you dare to look down on our Ferdinand, stinky bitch, I want you to live rather than die!" Wood pulled out the sword from the guard's waist and roared like a madman. "Lord Castle, uh..." The guard wanted to comfort Wood and take the opportunity to show his heart. Unexpectedly, before his words could be spoken, Wood pierced his heart with a sword. The guard fell down with a look of disbelief. After killing someone, the anger in Wood's heart lessened slightly. "Come, take a thousand convoys, and follow me to arrest the murderer. Wood shouted.
Someone outside immediately responded, followed by footsteps, and it seemed that they had gone to transfer troops. Wood didn't look at the dead guard, casually threw away the blood-stained sword in his hand, and strode out. The poor guard died by the sword in vain, and I don't know if anyone will do anything for him. Wood's orders were still very effective in Marne, and in just a few cups of tea, thousands of people gathered in the square in front of the city lord's mansion. Perhaps because of the build-up of the army, the idle civilians of Marne City gradually gathered. They were pointing at the guards out of curiosity, but none of them dared to speak loudly. Immediately after Wood came out, someone led his mount over, and Wood turned over on his mount with a sinking face. "Let's go! I must let people know what will happen to me today!" Wood tugged at the reins, and the horse that sat down spread its hooves and sprang out like the wind.
The army of 1,000 guards turned around neatly and trotted after them. The city of Marne was so big that the sound of a thousand-strong march could be heard even from a distance of a thousand meters. Xue Xi had been paying attention to the movements on the City Lord's Mansion, and Wood had already known about it as soon as he led the men and horses to set off. Even if Xue Xi's current soul realm is not deliberately searched, Xue Xi can know all the movements within a radius of ten miles. It's just that Xue Xi doesn't like this ability very much in general, so she can block it. The corners of Xue Xi's mouth curled slightly, and a touch of coldness flashed in her eyes. Completely unfamiliar with Amarante himself, this group of people just fills in the gap. If they don't know each other, I don't mind using waste. Xue Xi raised her head and drank all the wine in the cup, thinking unconsciously in her heart.
Halfway through, Wood suddenly felt chills all over his body, but this feeling came and went quickly, and Wood only thought that he was too angry and caused the illusion. He shook his head slightly, suppressing those inexplicable thoughts. Thinking of Kevin's death, the fire of hatred that Wood could barely suppress in his heart grew stronger and stronger, and Wood pressed his feet, and the speed of the horse's command increased again. It didn't take long for Wood to lead his men and horses to surround the Drunken Cloud Residence. The people who were eating in the middle of the drunken cloud immediately discussed nervously and in a low voice. Seeing that his subordinates had surrounded the three outer floors of Drunken Cloud Curie, Wood was relieved to take a few people into Drunken Cloud Residence.
Wood spotted Xue Xi at a glance, and Kevin's doglegged corpses were still there. Hatred flashed across Wood's face, and he strode over to Xue Xi. "You killed my son?" Wood sat down across from Xue Xi, seemingly salty. But those who are familiar with Wood know that Wood is already on the verge of breaking out. Xue Xi slowly turned the wine glass in her hand, without raising her eyelids. "That's right, it's better if your bastard son died. Besides, if he hadn't messed with me, he wouldn't have died. Xue Xi's expression of course was tantamount to the spark that ignited the powder keg, Wood could no longer hold back the anger in his heart, and slammed the case, "Okay, good, very good, you are bold! Someone! Kill her for me! I want her to bury my Kevin!"
"Miss Ben is not interested in burying your useless son yet, and you ninth-rate things are not enough. Xue Xi's calm tone added fuel to the fire, and Wood's body trembled. I saw that Wood didn't say a word, he pulled out the long knife on his waist and used all his strength to slash at Xue Xi's head. This knife is a tiger and a tiger, the knife is bright, and the diners in the hall are afraid and cold, and their limbs are cold. "Even ants dare to shine. Xue Xi snorted coldly, and she didn't see any movement, but Wood slammed it, and then spat blood and flew back. The guards were shocked and hurried forward to catch Wood. But when their hands touched Wood, an irresistible force traveled down their palms to their chests. The guards couldn't pick them up, and they were seriously injured. One by one, they vomited blood and fell to the ground, and they were already unconscious, looking at the intermittent breathing, they thought that their lives would be short.
Xue Xi raised her right hand and sent out a suction force to shoot Wood in front of her. The delicate jade foot gently stepped on Wood's face, and Xue Xi looked at Wood condescendingly. "The so-called not raising is the fault of the father. You are responsible for your son's death. Today, I don't want to kill again, and I reluctantly spare your life. Well, though, I'm conditional. "Wood tasted it was the first time he had been trampled underfoot. Who is Wood, he is the lord of Marne, the eldest son of the side branch of the Ferdinand family. The so-called soldier can be killed but not humiliated, and of course Wood will not just give in. "Witch, you don't want me to promise anything. Wood glared at Xue Xi viciously, and his arrogance had not diminished until now. Xue Xi looked up at the guards who were about to move, then looked down at Wood, and suddenly smiled. Xue Xi was originally a rare beauty, not to mention that this smile was enough to captivate the country, but Wood felt a chill.
"Looks like your men are loyal. Xue Xi smiled and pointed to the guards who had outflanked him step by step, "Originally, I didn't want to do this, but in order to have a good talk with you, I won't do anything about myself." Give me ten breaths of time, and then the two of us will talk individually. That's it. Wood felt that hateful foot on his face was gone, and when he looked up, he saw that even Xue Xi's figure was gone. Wood thought strangely, could it be that the demon girl just let me go? Ten breaths of time passed in a blink of an eye, and out of the corner of Wood's eye, he suddenly saw Xue Xi appear. He turned around in shock and guarded, "No matter who you are, you will not have a good life if you offend the court and the Ferdinand family." If you were to destroy yourself now, I could have left you with a whole corpse. "Deep-rooted beliefs, combined with the sheer power of the Ferdinand family, gave Wood a strong sense of self-confidence. It's a pity that Xue Xi has never heard of the Ferdinand family at all, and she doesn't care about the rules of imperial supremacy at all. Wood's confident threat is indeed not going to be effective here in Snow Night.
Xue Xi originally wanted to settle it peacefully, and then set some useful information for herself. Now, she has changed her mind, although Xuexi's so-called peace may not be real peace. "You still dare to threaten me, I don't know if it's good to say that you are brave or stupid. Xue Xi said that her body appeared behind Wood ghostly, and a small white hand gently pressed on the top of Wood's head. "It's called Soul Searching, and you won't die after casting it, but you'll just become an idiot. Wood felt a chill in his heart, and then felt an intense, indescribable pain spread through his mind. "Ahh Wood screamed for a moment, then had no more strength to scream, but his body trembled uncontrollably.
Xue Xi casually threw the unconscious Wood to the ground, closing her eyes to sort out the information she had gotten. As the eldest son of a side branch of the Ferdinand family, Wood's familiarity with the continent of Amarante is naturally not comparable to that of someone like Pig who has never left the village in his life. "I didn't expect the Ferdinand family to be so powerful, no wonder this guy dared to threaten me when he was dying. The eldest son of the cousin of the Ferdinand family actually nested in the city of Marne as the lord of the city, but it was for a treasure. It seems that the treasure must be extraordinary. Anyway, if I have time, I'll just go check it out. Xue Xi thought about throwing away some money and left.
