Chapter 107: The Underworld Alliance
Chapter 107: The Underworld Alliance
"Xiao Wu, Niu Niu ......"
Looking at the two children in front of him, Yue Fan's heart swelled with a strong warmth. These are the two children he raised single-handedly, and a blood connection has long been born between the three of them.
The two children hadn't said a word since they entered the door, but their red eyes couldn't hide the excitement in their hearts. Although the separation was only a little over a month, they lived in sadness every day.
Yes, sad. Who says that children don't know how to be sad? Except for hypocritical clothing, in fact, the real emotions in children's hearts will always be more real and pure than those so-called adults.
"Uncle Beard......"
Niuniu threw herself into Yue Fan's arms with all her might, letting the tears fall big drops, she had too many thoughts to tell.
"Uncle......
Xiao Wu also pounced on Yue Fan and hugged him.
Uncle Beard, what a affectionate name. Although the current Yue Fan is not bearded, he still enjoys the intimacy between the two children and himself. For the two children who lost their parents, Yue Fan is their closest and dearest person in this world.
"How are you doing?"
Yue Fan gently stroked the heads of the two children, and his mood fluctuated abnormally.
For more than a month, the immaturity between Xiao Wu and Niu Niu's eyebrows gradually shed, becoming a little more mature and stable, and they have grown a lot taller. Especially Xiao Wu, his whole body is strong and powerful, and he is no longer as thin as before.
"Uncle, we are doing well, really good......"
Xiao Wu wiped away his tears and replaced them with a bright smile, he wanted to engrave his beautiful side deeply in Yue Fan's heart.
Niuniu hugged Yue Fan's neck tightly and nodded vigorously without saying a word.
Tong Xiang and Ning Wanqian looked at each other, and there was a smile of relief in their eyes. Although they wanted to use the relationship between the two children to shorten the distance between the Heaven and Earth Alliance and Li Yuefan, they were still sincerely happy for the two children. Of course, this step is a beautiful one. They believe that as long as there is a relationship between these two children, Li Yuefan will definitely not stand against them, and there may be room for cooperation.
"Ahem!"
Seeing that the atmosphere was so harmonious, Ling Tong hurriedly greeted, "Okay, okay, everyone, you're welcome...... Come on, come on, sit down and talk!"
......
Everyone sat down, Yue Fan was in the center, and the two children were by his side.
Ling Tong asked someone to set up a banquet, and everyone chatted.
"By the way, Tong Xiang, why don't you see Iron Blood coming? No matter how busy the affairs in the alliance are, you can't help but come to meet!"
Seeing Ling Tong's complaining expression, Tong Xiang said with a bitter face: "The affairs in the alliance are indeed very busy, but it doesn't matter to the eldest brother, he just came back and went out, and he has some personal matters to deal with...... But I've already passed the book to him, and I'm sure he'll be back soon. β
After a pause, Tong Xiang half-jokingly said: "Maybe I can bring back an alliance leader's wife at that time, hehehe!"
Hearing the name Iron Blood, Yue Fan was slightly stunned, with a faint melancholy in his eyes.
Seeing this, Tong Xiang and Ning Wanqian glanced at each other and said no more.
Immediately, Ling Tong asked Yue Fan: "Brother Li, what happened back then? Where have you been in the past ten years? Everyone misses you very much, but unfortunately I can't find your whereabouts, if you didn't come to Luoyang this time, I don't know when I will see you...... You don't know, for your sake, we have been left behind by many people...... Also, Long Jun and Ding Yi, the two boys, asked me for money when they had nothing to do, as if they owed them in their previous lives...... Now the world is not good, and it is not easy to do business! Don't look at the fact that I have a little money now, in fact, I am under a lot ......of pressure."
β......β
Hearing Ling Tong spitting out bitterness in front of Yue Fan, everyone was dumbfounded. They never thought that the big boss of Lingtong, the world's richest man, would complain like a deep resentful woman.
Shu Lan on the side sighed and recognized such a brother, I don't know if it was fortunate or unlucky.
A fine sweat broke out on Yue Fan's forehead, he almost forgot the other party's nature, even if it was another ten years, he didn't want to change it.
As he spoke, Ling Tong seemed to notice the strange eyes around him, so he hurriedly stopped and changed the subject: "Oh, by the way, Brother Li, who are these two little guys around you?"
"They are the children I raised......"
At the moment, Yue Fan told everything that had happened over the years. From leaving ten years ago, to the trip to the East China Sea, to the Shouling family, the Qinhuang Underground Palace, the Nine Shadows Abyss, the Demon Master Xu Fu, etc., and finally amnesia was rescued, ten years of ordinary life......
After listening to all these stories, the whole room suddenly fell silent.
A person's life is only a few decades, but the life that Yue Fan has experienced is the sigh of everyone!
Ling Tong and the others were still immersed in the past ten years, but Shu Lan, Uncle Miao, and Liang Huwei paid attention to their words, and faintly guessed Yue Fan's true identity.
Rumors about Li Yuefan's deeds are true and false, with mixed reviews...... What is affectionate to sexuality, what is cruel and unkind, what is murderous and so on, but without exception, it is all a "fierce" word!
It's hard to imagine that such a legendary figure would eat and chat with him. This kind of mood gap is like a beggar and the emperor eating in the same pot, it's incredible!
In their hearts, Shu Lan and the others were shocked! They never imagined that the down-and-out person who was rescued on the side of the road would be such a big person. At the same time, they secretly rejoiced that if it weren't for the kindness of the moment, how could there be this moment.
......
"Brother Li, do you have any plans for the future?"
After learning Yue Fan's identity, Shu Lan didn't show too much restraint, but just regarded the other party as a friend worthy of care. This is not sympathy, let alone flattery, because she knows that if a person carries too much, he is destined to be unable to get rid of the shackles of fate, and why is she not like this?
"I haven't figured it out yet...... Maybe, I'll stay here for a while. β
Yue Fan gently stroked Niuniu's bangs, his eyes flashing with exhaustion. In front of his two children, he was reluctant to let hatred permeate his life.
Seeing that Yue Fan was willing to stay temporarily, Ling Tong immediately burst into tears and said, "Okay, okay! Lao Fu and Long Jun are coming to Luoyang, and everyone must get together when the time comes." It just so happened that Brother Li was staying with me temporarily...... Uh, Sister Shulan, you should also move in together, anyway, the garden is empty, and your sister-in-law also likes to be lively, so you can talk to her when you go. β
Shu Lan was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then smiled and bowed her head in agreement. It seems that this cheap big brother is not talking about it, he really doesn't treat himself as an outsider.
Tong Xiang was secretly annoyed on the side, originally he wanted to take Li Yuefan to live in the Heaven and Earth Alliance through the relationship between the two children, but Ling Tong was the first to do so.
At this point, Tong Xiang didn't want to be cheeky enough to fight for people, so he echoed: "Since that's the case, then Mr. Li and the two children will stay at Boss Ling's place first, and when the eldest brother comes back, we will visit." β
Speaking of this, Ning Wanqian said at the right time: "Mr. Li, in a few days it will be the period of the martial arts conference, if Mr. is free, Mr. is welcome to come and participate." β
"Is it a martial arts conference again......"
Yue Fan nodded lightly, and couldn't help but think of some people and things ten years ago. Ten years have passed, and things have long been different.
When Ling Tong heard this, he said curiously: "I said Tong Xiang, the martial arts gathering five years ago caused a bloody storm in the rivers and lakes, and in the end everyone broke up unhappily, why are you holding a martial arts conference now? Could it be that something big has happened?"
"Yes. β
Tong Xiang nodded, and said with a solemn expression: "A few days ago, news suddenly came from the Holy Domain, asking us to inform all the Heavenly Dao monks on the rivers and lakes to participate in this Hidden Forest Conference together. In view of the danger of the Hidden Forest Conference in the past, the eldest brother wanted to convene this martial arts conference and let the entire rivers and lakes participate in it, including those hidden sects and masters. β
"Sanctuary?"
Ling Tong frowned and muttered to himself, "Why don't I know such important news?"
Tong Xiang finally seized the opportunity and sneered fiercely: "Boss Ling, you are not an immortal, how can you know everything?" Hehe, this news was directly transmitted by the archdeacon of the Holy Domain, so except for a few of us, the people below don't know about it at all." β
Ling Tong shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly and said, "Don't say such an important thing earlier, you kid is the same as Iron Blood, playing mysterious, pretending to be deep, it's not cute at all......"
Without waiting for the other party to refute, Ling Tong continued: "However, since the Sacred Domain has acted like this, presumably other forces should have received the same notice, it seems that this Hidden Forest Conference is very different from the past. β
"That's for sure, otherwise how could all the monks in the world be involved. β
"Alas, I finally lived a few days of peace, and it came to an end. β
"You're okay, do business and count the money, but I still have so many things to deal with. β
"Hehe, those who can work harder. β
"Hahahaha-"
......
Ling Tong chatted with Tong Xiang and others about the affairs of the rivers and lakes, Yue Fan got along with the two children very happily, but the people of the Chase Chamber of Commerce were a little at a loss.
So after a full meal and wine, Shu Lan and the others made an excuse to retreat.
A banquet ended in this pleasant atmosphere.
......
ββββββββββββ
On the outskirts of Luoyang, in a splendid manor.
At this time, a woman dressed as a young woman was pruning flowers in the garden, and two maids were waiting beside her.
This young woman is dressed in a bewitching and charming dress, a gorgeous brocade dress, which not only gives people the illusion of bohemianism, but also shows a graceful and noble temperament, as if a contradictory unity, she is the most outstanding woman among the palace masters of the Sunflower Palace...... Unforgettable.
To say that this place, called Cuiliu Villa, used to be the property of the Murong family, but the Murong family all moved to the border, so that no one took care of it here and it was vacant for a long time. Mingxin has a shallow relationship with Murong Aohan, so it is natural to move here.
......
After a while, Mingxin put down the scissors in his hand and asked a maid next to him, "Tears, where are you young palace masters?
The maid named Tear said: "Back to the palace master, Boss Shi of the Bai'an Chamber of Commerce invited the young palace master to the guest house at noon, and Ke Songxi, the head of the Heavenly Sword Gate, and Xu Hongbo, the third-grade deacon of the Heaven and Earth Alliance, must be for the gathering of the business house tomorrow." β
"Oh, Bai'an Chamber of Commerce, isn't it one of the three major chambers of commerce......"
Mingxin replied lukewarmly, and said lightly: "They will find backers, not only for my Sunflower Palace, but also for the Heaven and Earth Alliance, which is really beyond their means......!
"The palace master is angry!"
Tear lowered her head and excused her pity: "Maybe the young palace master just wants to join in the fun, and when the young palace master has had enough, he will naturally return to the palace master." β
"This girl is getting crazy and crazy......"
Although Mingxin was scolding, a rare smile appeared on his face: "Okay, don't say good things for her anymore, she was brought up by me, how could I not understand her character......"
After a pause, Mingxin continued: "This girl is too playful, too wild, she has never known the height of the sky, and she doesn't understand human accidents, she is really a troublemaker." If it is at other times, there is nothing to scruple about, but now that the martial arts conference is about to take place, and the world's masters are gathered in Luoyang, if she causes something, I am afraid it will not end well. Take my token and bring her back, and let her take care of her temperament. β
"Yes, Palace Master. β
Tears were about to retreat, and a subordinate hurriedly ran over: "Palace master, it's not good, something happened to the young palace master!"
"What!?"
Mingxin's eyelids jumped violently, and an ominous premonition came to his heart.
Tear knew that the palace master was anxious, and hurriedly scolded: "Say it quickly!
"The young palace master is in the lobby and has been unconscious. β
As soon as the servant finished speaking, Mingxin disappeared in front of him.
......
ββββββββββββ
In the lobby of the villa, the atmosphere is calm.
In the calm environment, there seems to be a precursor to a storm.
The young palace master of the Sunflower Palace was sent back, and he lay quietly in the center of the hall, judging from the current situation, it seems to be very bad!
The four guys from the Bai'an Chamber of Commerce cowered in the corner, not daring to take a breath, for fear of alarming the group of women with swords around them.
"Heart?!"
A cry of grief brought out the figure of the inscribed heart in the center of the lobby.
Looking at the woman on the stretcher, covered in blood and unconscious, I was filled with grief and indignation. She picked up the star and probed her pulse, her complexion changed suddenly, and a strong murderous aura swept through the entire hall!
"The dantian is broken, and the meridians are all broken...... What a ruthless heart!"
Ming's heart looked like madness, and his distorted face was gloomy and about to drip water. He grabbed a guy from the Bai'an Chamber of Commerce and roared angrily: "Say!Who is it?!Who did it!?"
"Spare your life! The palace master spares your life......"
The fellow cried and said, "No...... It's none of our business, it's really none of our business, it was Master Shi who asked us to send the young palace master back, we just acted on orders!"
Immediately afterwards, another guy hurriedly took out a letter from his body and said, "Gong ...... Palace master, this is the letter that Master Shi asked us to hand over to the palace master, and it is what happened......"
"Pengβ"
Mingxin waved his hand and shook the two guys out, and the two fell to the ground as dead bodies.
When the other two men saw this, they were almost so frightened that they had to huddle in the corner and shiver.
Mingxin didn't bother to pay attention to anything else, so he directly beckoned the letter back into his hand, opened it and looked at it, his face was gloomy, but he was much calmer.
In this letter, there are Datong Chamber of Commerce, down-and-out men, Ling Tong, Tong Xiang and others...... Shi Menglin carefully wrote down the cause and effect of the incident, but he had no intention of hiding it. After all, with the means of Sunflower Palace, it is too easy to find out the truth of the matter.
"Shi Menglin, this old thing is cunning, for fear that the palace will be angry with him, he only asked four subordinates to send Xin'er back! Do you think this palace will let you go?"
Reading the content of the entire letter, Mingxin's face was hideous, and the anger in her heart could not be extinguished even if she poured out the water of the nine heavens.
At this time, tears also rushed over, and after learning the content of the letter, she said angrily: "Palace master, I will take someone to destroy the Chase Chamber of Commerce and the guest house, and avenge the young palace master." β
"Humph!"
Mingxin's face was like frost, and he said in a deep voice: "That person can beat his heart with one punch, and he has to be treated so politely by Ling Tong and Tong Xiang, how can his identity be ordinary?
Tears were not angry: "Is that all there is?"
"Smack!"
Mingxin slapped the maid in the face, and said coldly: "This palace does things, and you still need to dictate?"
People in the underworld have always been moody, killing people at every turn, and showing no mercy.
Tear'er showed fear on her face, and immediately knelt on the ground and said: "The palace master is angry, Tear knows that it is wrong, please forgive the palace master!"
"Humph!"
Mingxin's mood gradually calmed down, and his eyes were gloomy and said: "The heart was brought up by this palace, and this revenge will naturally be avenged! Ling Tong's background is not simple, don't touch him for the time being...... As for the origin of the Chase Chamber of Commerce and that person, you can find out first. β
"Tears understand. β
Tear still knelt on the ground and looked at the remaining two guys of the Bai'an Chamber of Commerce: "Palace Master, what should these two do?"
Mingxin said with a murderous face: "This matter is all caused by Shi Menglin's old thing, how can this palace spare him! Killing these two is ......"
Before the two guys begged for mercy, a cold light flashed, and the two of them died of anger.
Immediately, the women stepped forward and carried the four corpses out.
......
"Qiqi Palace Master, there are people outside asking to see you. β
Seeing a subordinate coming quickly, his heart was furious, and he said impatiently: "Get out! Let him go back, I don't want to see anyone in this palace today!"
The subordinate didn't want to touch the palace master's head at this time, but the identity of the person who came was not trivial and couldn't be perfunctory, so he slurred and said: "The palace ...... The palace master, can ...... But that man said that he was the protector of the Heavenly Evil Sect, this ...... This ......"
"Heavenly Evil Sect?"
Mingxin was slightly stunned, and said after a moment: "Okay, you take him to the side hall first, and I'll go later." β
"Yes. β
The subordinate retreated, and Mingxin ordered the person to take the mercy back to the room to recuperate, and then leave.
......
ββββββββββββ
The villa is a hall, elegant and chic.
An old man dressed as a scribe in white sat on a chair and quietly tasted the fragrance of tea in his hand.
After a while, Mingxin came alone, but the chill on his face did not dissipate.
Seeing the person coming, the old man gently put down the tea bowl in his hand, got up and straightened his clothes and arched his hand: "The left protector of the Heavenly Evil Sect, Zheng Yulan has seen the palace master of Mingxin!"
Mingxin politely returned the salute and said lightly: "Oh, what is the matter, why did you bother Protector Zheng to come in person?"
Zheng Yulan said with a straight face: "Tang suddenly disturbed, please ask the palace master not to blame." The old man came this time for the underworld alliance. β
"The Sopranos?"
Mingxin sneered: "Didn't the underworld alliance break up five years ago? Where is there any talk of the underworld alliance now? What's more, I'm no longer a member of the underworld......
"Remember the palace master, listen to me after I finish speaking. β
Zheng Yulan didn't mind the other party's cold words, and said to herself: "In the battle of Jiuxia Mountain back then, there were countless casualties in the rivers and lakes, and in the end, no one got a bargain. And the six sects of the underworld that used to exist no longer exist. The Five Poisons Sect took refuge in the Demon Gate of the Outer Regions, the Divine Dragon Sect was destroyed, the Valley of Ten Thousand Evils could not retreat, the Green Gang was almost dispersed, and even our Heavenly Evil Sect suffered heavy losses, if we didn't work together at this time, there would be no place for us in the rivers and lakes. β
Mingxin said with a playful expression: "Yes? But what does this have to do with me? Don't forget, the underworld alliance was the beginning, but you kicked me out." β
Zheng Yulan sighed and said, "If it weren't for the Sunflower Palace's attachment to the Murong Clan, how could the Underworld Alliance embarrass the Palace Master." β
Mingxin snorted coldly: "Since you all know that I am attached to the Murong Clan, what are you doing to come to me?" Aren't you afraid that I will betray you?"
Zheng Yulan said calmly: "At this time, at that time, I think neither the palace master nor the Murong clan want to watch the Heaven and Earth Alliance become bigger, right? This martial arts conference will absolutely affect the fate of the entire rivers and lakes, and it is also related to the fate of the underworld, and I hope that the palace master can seriously consider one or two." β
"Tomorrow night, Mochizuki Pavilion will meet, hoping to see the palace master at that time...... The old man took his leave. β
Without waiting for Mingxin to reply, Zheng Yulan had already drifted away.
......
