Chapter 208 Aristocratic Family Competition
Chapter 208 Aristocratic Family Competition
The sky quickly darkened, and the clouds led Mo Bai towards Qian's house.
As soon as she arrived outside Qian's house, she saw Han Shu standing in the corner.
When he saw Yun Duo, he quickly took two steps forward. It seemed that he was well prepared.
"I saw that you looked strange in the afternoon, so I guessed that you might still visit Qian's house at night, so I stayed here and didn't expect you to show up."
Then he said again.
"Since you know that the Qian family is in collusion with demon cultivators, you should naturally understand that the Qian family is now just like a wolf in a tiger's den, yet you still dare to come."
Han Shu's tone seemed to say that she was reckless and impulsive.
Yun Duo knew that he was worried about her and quickly assured her.
"Don't worry, I have my own plan. You can go back while no one notices me at this moment. I will tell you in detail when I come out."
Han Shu stood motionless, refusing to leave no matter what she said.
"Since you insist on entering Qian's house, I will accompany you."
Han Shu acted like I won't leave unless I accompany you in.
Yun Duo thought of the many magic cultivators in the Qian family and Qian Bao's master. Han Shu's cultivation level was too low. If he joined the Qian family, he would be held back and killed.
He quickly refused out loud.
"The Qian family is in danger. Your cultivation level is too low. I can't take you in."
"You said the Qian family is in danger, so don't go if you don't let me go."
He stood in front of Yun Duo and refused to give in, and the proper oil and salt would not enter.
Yun Duo looked up at Mo Bai helplessly, her eyes indicating that she would leave it to him.
Mo Bai used the space domain to trap Han Shu, and then used his spiritual power to knock him out.
Yun Duo: "Is this the end?"
Mo Bai: "Huh?"
Yun Duo: "Won't he wake up?"
Mo Bai: "As long as the realm is not withdrawn, he will not wake up."
Yun Duo: "If you take him with you like this, will someone with a higher level of cultivation than you discover you?"
Mo Bai: "No, the domain space belongs to my territory, and no one can notice it except me."
Yun Duo: "That's good."
After being delayed by Han Shu for a while, the sky had completely darkened.
Having had the experience of entering the Qian family, it was obviously much easier for them to enter again.
Entering the Qian Mansion, Yun Duo and Mo Bai Bing split up in two ways, he went to the study room, and she went to Qian Bao's courtyard.
If his so-called master cannot be found in these two places, they will make a longer plan.
Once reborn, twice familiar, Yun Duo went straight to Qian Bao's courtyard. Compared with the lively atmosphere of playing music, dancing, drinking and drinking in the courtyard last time, this time the courtyard felt a little quiet in the dead of night and completely silent.
This was not in line with Qian Bao's temperament. Just when Yun Duo was about to jump into the courtyard to find out, Mo Bai's voice came from his consciousness.
"Come to the study quickly, Qian Bao and his master are both there."
Upon hearing this, Yun Duo took back his left foot that was about to jump off, turned around and headed towards Qian Mansion's study.
From a distance, she saw Mo Bai, dressed in white, standing so openly on the study window sill, listening to the conversation inside.
Seeing Yun Duo coming, Mo Bai's spiritual consciousness transmitted a message.
"The Qian family and Mo Xiu are currently discussing that Dabi will attack the city lord's palace that day and replace it."
Yun Duo clicked his tongue, the Qian family was so brave that they wanted to occupy the magpie's nest.
Yun Duo: "What else are they plotting?"
Mo Bai: "Qian Bao wanted to destroy the promising children of the major families in the competition, destroying the elite children of each clan, that is, destroying the hopes of each family, so that the Qian family can take the lead.
After the game is over, they will annihilate the city lord's mansion in one fell swoop, and Scarlet Flame City will become the Qian family's world. "
Clouds…
The Qian family really dares to think about it.
They really thought that the city lord's mansion was just a decoration, and with the help of magic cultivators, everything would be fine.
Mo Bai: "By the way, one more thing. A formation has been set up in Qian Bao's courtyard. If someone breaks in, the formation attack will be launched. It sounds like Qian Laiye means someone came to assassinate Qian Bao a few days ago. It happened to be Saved by his master."
Yun Duo suddenly realized, no wonder she said that Qian Bao's courtyard was unusually quiet. Fortunately, Mo Bai called her in time, otherwise she would have fallen into the formation trap.
Yun Duo: "What state of cultivation is Master Qian Bao at?"
Mo Bai: "Nascent Soul Dzogchen, but there are two late Yuanying monks beside him."
No wonder Qian Bao is so arrogant. With three late Nascent Soul monks, he really has the capital to show off.
Yun Duo: "Did they discuss the spirit stone veins?"
Mo Bai: "No!"
More than half a month has passed since the Lingshi Veins incident, so it’s normal that we haven’t discussed it again.
They waited for a while, but after receiving no more useful information, they turned around and prepared to leave.
I heard a strong voice coming from the study room.
"You are a brave thief who dares to break into Qian's Mansion without permission. Today I will let you go without return."
Yun Duo was shocked. She must have been exposed. She lowered her head and glanced at herself. The Hidden Breath Talisman was well attached, just when her face was full of doubts.
A figure jumped out not far away and quickly ran out of the darkness of the study. The man's cultivation was in the early stage of Nascent Soul.
When he was discovered, he was just stunned for a moment, and immediately got up and prepared to escape from Qian's Mansion.
His speed was very fast, but he was still not as fast as the late Yuanying monks, and he was soon caught up by the other party.
I saw the man taking out a giant net from his storage bag and throwing it over the man in black.
Once enveloped by the giant net, this person will definitely be unable to fly.
The enemy of the enemy is a friend.
Yun Duo picked up a stone from the ground and quickly hit it towards the giant net. The impact of spiritual energy caused the direction of the giant net to deflect by two inches.
The man in black takes this opportunity to escape capture in the giant net.
The man was about to escape from Qian Mansion, but he was kicked by the Yuanying Dzogchen monk who came out of the blue.
The man in black fell from mid-air, and by chance, he landed at Yun Duo's feet.
The man in black felt someone in the darkness as soon as he landed. He fell so suddenly that the clouds were relieved for a moment.
As soon as the man in black got up from the ground, he heard Qian Bao Demonic Cultivator Master Zhao Qi talking to the three demonic cultivators beside him.
"You guys go search the surrounding area quickly. Don't let this man and his accomplices escape."
After hearing what Zhao Qi said, the man in black understood that he had just escaped from the magic network because of Yun Duo's help.
In order not to drag Yun Duo down, he quickly headed towards the inner courtyard, with Zhao Qi following closely behind.
The remaining three demon cultivators led everyone in the Qian family to search the surroundings. After walking around and finding nothing, they could only head towards Zhao Qi.
Yun Duo had already taken the opportunity to escape Qian Mansion when the man in black attracted attention.
Yun Duo stood outside Qian Mansion and refused to leave, so Mo Bai couldn't help but speak.
"Aren't we leaving? If someone from the Qian Mansion finds out, I'm afraid there will be a fight."
Yun Duo: "Wait a little longer."
Mo Bai: "Why?"
Yun Duo: "Wait for someone."
Mo Bai: "That man in black."
Yun Duo: "Yeah!"
Mo Bai wanted to ask her how she could be so sure that the man in black could escape from Qian's house. You must know that he was only in the early stage of Yuanying, and Zhao Qi was in the Great Perfection of Yuanying, not to mention there were two demon cultivators in the late stage of Yuanying. .
However, seeing the confident expression on Yun Duo's face, he suppressed the words he was about to blurt out.
After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, the sound of fighting came from Qian's mansion.
"coming!"
When Yun Duo uttered these two words, he saw a black shadow flashing out not far away.
Yun Duo quickly stepped forward and grabbed the arm of the man in black, and then threw out several formation disks. The defensive formations were activated to block the chasing Qian family members.
Zhao Qi used his spiritual power on the formation. The formation did not move at all. He could only watch the opponent's figure disappear before his eyes.
Qian Lai also hurried over with Qian Bao. Seeing Zhao Qi's calm expression, he couldn't help but ask.
"Sir, I wonder if the gangster who broke into my Qian's house was caught."
Qian Lai's tone was not too good. If the other party heard about their plot and told the city lord, the Qian family might not be able to survive the big competition and take action, and they would be taken over by the city lord's palace first.
Zhao Qi glanced at him and snorted coldly.
"If he hadn't had an accomplice to help him, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been able to get out of the Qian family. But don't worry. Although he escaped, he was just hit by me. The devilish energy is flowing in his meridians. Can he survive the night? Hard to say."
When I heard that Qian Lai came, I felt a lot more at ease.
In order to prevent him from losing his composure when the money came, Zhao Qi gave him another reassurance.
"Even if this person informs the City Lord's Mansion of the plan, the City Lord's Mansion will not dare to take action without definite evidence. Unless it can wipe out your Qian family in one fell swoop, the City Lord's Mansion will not act rashly. What's more, our forces are still protecting you in the dark. You What’s there to worry about?”
Qian Lai also thought of Zhao Qi's cultivation and the power behind him, and his originally impetuous mood was instantly soothed.
Looking at Yun Duo again, she and the man in black escaped only a few hundred meters before stopping and hiding in the ink-white space.
They waited in the dark for a while but didn't see Qian's family chasing after them, and then continued on their way.
They came all the way to the dense forest outside Chiyan City, and then released the man in black and Han Shu at the same time.
Only then did Yun Duo notice that the exposed forehead of the man in black was covered with beads of sweat, and his brows were furrowed as if he was holding back huge pain.
"Are you OK!"
Yun Duo put her palm in front of the man in black and waved it, but the man in black didn't even look at her.
Something is wrong, very wrong.
Yun Duo pulled the man in black's wrist and he showed no intention of resisting. This was not the reaction a normal monk should have.
She followed his wrist towards the body of the man in black and saw a trace of black energy flowing around inside his body.
The black energy noticed that the consciousness that did not belong to the body was penetrating in, and suddenly formed a black net and enveloped her consciousness.
Seeing this, Yun Duo quickly withdrew her consciousness, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on her forehead. Fortunately, she reacted quickly enough. If she was contaminated by the black energy, she would be afraid that her consciousness would be damaged.
It didn't take a second thought to know that the black aura was demonic aura. Yun Duo tore open the clothes of the man in black and saw a palm print on his chest.
Zhao Qi's move was a bit cruel. He injected the demonic energy into the monk's body. The demonic energy would gradually corrode the monk's meridians and Dantian, making the opponent's life worse than death.
Yun Duo looked at the man in black and was a little confused on whether to remove the black energy from his body.
After all, they met by chance. If the other person was a bad person, wouldn't it be unnecessary for her to do so.
Then she thought that the other party in Qian Mansion clearly noticed her aura but did not reveal her location. Instead, she made a noise to lead Zhao Qi and others elsewhere, which put her in a dilemma.
After thinking for a moment, she decided to save the person first. If the other person was a bad guy, she would just kill him. If he was an alliance, he would be able to help.
Yun Duo used his spiritual consciousness to control the Green Lotus Earth Fire to enter the body of the man in black and travel along his meridians. The demonic energy felt the danger of the strange fire and began to retreat as the strange fire approached.
The man in black felt the stinging pain coming from his meridians, and struggled a little to prevent him from being hurt by the strange fire, so Yunduo put a holding charm on his body.
As the strange fire moved, beads of sweat began to appear on his head, and he cried out in pain from time to time.
The demonic energy was forced into the small corner of Dantian by the strange fire. As if making a final struggle, the demonic energy once again condensed into a black net and headed towards Qinglian Earth Fire.
The cloud controlled the strange fire and transformed into a huge mouth of the abyss. When the black net came over, it swallowed all the black energy into the mouth.
She controlled the strange fire to swim twice inside the body of the man in black to make sure that no evil energy was missing, and then withdrew her consciousness and strange fire.
The demonic energy was eliminated, and the man in black was somewhat injured. Yun Duo took back the amulet and he was still awake.
There was a soft and crisp sound in his ears. Yunduo turned around and saw Han Shu getting up from the ground. The sound was caused by the breaking of branches.
Han Shu felt relieved when he saw Yun Duo standing in front of him, but when he looked up, he saw that they were no longer in the city. Then he saw a person lying on the ground, and his relieved heart increased again.
"Duoduo, who is he?"
Han Shu pointed at the man in black lying not far away.
"I don't know him. He also went to Qian Mansion to find out information and saved him instantly."
Yun Duo spoke in a relaxed tone, as if he was rescuing not an injured person, but a puppy and kitten.
Han Shu took two steps forward and saw the other person's face clearly when he got closer.
"Young City Lord."
Han Shu took another look to make sure he recognized the right person, and then he exclaimed.
The lord of Scarlet Flame City was named Qi Sheng, and lying on the ground was his son Qiming.
I don't know if it was because Han Shu's voice was too loud or because Qiming heard someone calling him Young City Lord, he struggled twice and then opened his eyes.
He first glanced at Yun Duo without saying anything, then turned to look at Han Shu and asked with some uncertainty.
"Mr. Han?"
Han Shu stepped forward to greet him.
There is a close relationship between the aristocratic families and the City Lord's Mansion. The young masters from all the major aristocratic families are naturally familiar with each other. It is not surprising that they can recognize each other.
Qi Ming was weak and took out the elixir from his storage bag and swallowed it. After his spiritual power recovered a little, he got up from the ground.
When his consciousness was about to fade away, he knew that Yun Duo had saved him, and he quickly thanked her.
The three of them exchanged greetings for a while before getting down to business.
Yun Duo was still hiding firmly when Qiming was discovered. From this, it can be seen that he heard what the Qian Mansion was planning, and Yun Duo naturally knew about it. In this case, there was nothing to hide.
Qi Ming's night visit to the Qian Family City Master knew that if he hadn't given him so many natural and earthly treasures, he probably wouldn't have been able to escape from the Qian Family, and was finally rescued by Yun Duo.
He spoke out what he heard without reservation, then looked at Yun Duo and Han Shu and asked them what they thought.
Han Shu only knew that the Qian family was colluding with the demon cultivator, but he never thought that he would actually want Li Daitao to be dead.
Han Shu and Yun Duo looked at each other and said in unison.
"Use the trick to your advantage."
If the Qian Mansion doesn't want to take advantage of the competition and take over the City Lord's Mansion, then they will act like a mantis stalking the cicada, with the oriole behind.
Qi Ming also had this intention. The three of them looked at each other and smiled, and the hero had the same idea.
The Qian family's attempt to assassinate the elite members of the Crimson Flame City aristocratic family was not something that Yun Duo and the others could intervene in. They could only leave it to the city lord to arrange it.
Before Qi Ming left, he made an agreement with Yun Duo and the others that he would come back to find them after he reported back to the city lord what he heard at Qian's house.
Yun Duo and Han Shu returned to the Han family, Qiming returned to the city lord's mansion, and the three of them were temporarily separated.
