Chapter 422: Joining a gang and getting a woman, it's normal
After a brief moment of shock, Lu Zhan regained his composure.
If he remembered correctly, the old dragon in Lingshitan was married to a brother and sister. These monsters had very low concepts of ethics and it was not surprising that they would do such a thing in order to ensure the purity of their bloodline.
Gao Wuliang chewed the beef marinated with demon blood and continued:
"Sheng Yi appears to be righteous on the surface, but in fact she is a pervert at heart. Although the demon tribe does not value the concept of human relations, a mountain sect with a little bit of dignity will never allow an aunt and a nephew... They are having an affair. I learned about this by accident and was preparing to make it public so that there would be a lot of fun..."
"!"
These words shocked Jiang Ningshuang so much that she opened her mouth slightly and didn't react for a long time.
Xiuyinfang is a West Lake immortal sect that values reputation very much. In addition, all the members in the sect are women. Jiang Ningshuang had never heard of such a thing and was unable to accept it for a while.
Lu Zhan looked normal.
It has to be said that the Lihuo Gang has something. Gao Wuliang seemed to be talking about the dirty things of Peacock Mountain, but in fact he was showing that the Lihuo Gang really knew Peacock Mountain and even knew such secrets.
Lu Zhan had no intention of guessing whether the secret was true or not. Every profession has its own expertise. Since the Lihuo Gang was targeting Peacock Mountain, they had an advantage because of their large number of people.
Thinking of this, Lu Zhan raised his eyes and smiled, saying:
"I am not interested in such dirty things, but I have another question for Brother Gao. Are there any experts among the disciples coming out of Peacock Mountain this time?"
Xuan Que was a person who had reached the Creation Realm and was protected by the Five-Colored Divine Feathers. The fact that he was killed under such circumstances was enough to prove that the murderer was extremely powerful.
The demons in Peacock Mountain are not fools. They may let their minions continue searching, but they will never pin their hopes of revenge on them.
For example, at the entrance to the secret realm, the peacock spirits Lu Zhan met were all masters of the Creation Realm, but none of them fought alone, they all came together, which shows that Peacock Mountain is very cautious.
Therefore, among the main team searching for the murderer of Xuanque, there must be a master who has surpassed the realm of creation, who comes specifically for revenge.
Otherwise, wouldn't that be just delivering food for nothing?
As for the Peacock King and the Peacock Princess coming to the capital, it was probably to put pressure on the royal family.
To put it nicely, the people of Peacock Mountain are the king and the princess, but to put it bluntly, they are just a group of demons.
Gao Wuliang looked at Lu Zhan with undisguised admiration in his eyes:
"Brother Feng is very insightful. To be honest, according to our investigation, there is indeed an old peacock coming out of Peacock Mountain this time. If my information is correct, he should be a great power in the middle stage of Wuwei Realm."
"!"
Lu Zhan pursed his lips, his eyes suddenly focused, and his heart was uncontrollably stirring.
The great power in the middle stage of Wuwei Realm was like a delicious dish cooked to perfection, making people salivate. Moreover, Lu Zhan was always hungry for demons.
This time we're going to make a lot of money.
Lu Zhan suppressed the throbbing in his heart and said calmly:
"If it is true as Brother Gao said, if a powerful person from the Wuwei Realm comes out, then there will be a big commotion in Southern Xinjiang."
When Gao Wuliang mentioned the Wuwei Realm powerhouse, he was not afraid at all and even eager to try:
"Even if there is excitement, it is caused by us. Brother Feng, don't worry, since we have joined forces, no matter what realm the opponent is in, we will do our best to deal with him. At that time, we only need to make good arrangements, and we may be able to kill him."
"He is a powerful person in the Wuwei realm." Lu Zhan looked at Gao Wuliang and asked in surprise: "Aren't you afraid of being wiped out?"
"..."
Gao Wuliang was naturally afraid of being wiped out: "If it was just our Lihuo Gang, I would be afraid. But now that Brother Feng has joined us, what is there to fear?"
"Oh?" Lu Zhan smiled and said, "I don't even believe in myself."
Gao Wuliang looked at Lu Zhan seriously and said, "Brother Feng is really modest. There is a gap between the Wuwei realms. How does Peacock Mountain compare to the Mirage Demon?"
"..."
Lu Zhan understood what he meant, but he didn't respond. He just said, "There are many disciples in Peacock Mountain. If a fight really breaks out, it may not be as easy to deal with as the Mirage Demon. The Lihuo Gang is not optimistic."
Gao Wuliang did not deny it: "Of course I know this, but I am willing to give it a try. Brother Feng, you don't know that for the past 500 years, we in the Lihuo Gang have taken killing peacocks as our responsibility. We have a rule in our Lihuo Gang."
"If you can kill a Peacock Mountain disciple who is in the Wuwei realm, you will be listed alongside the ancestor in the family tree, and you will be rewarded with a golden body statue and be worshipped by the gang."
"..."
Gao Wuliang spoke eloquently, his eyes shining with longing as he spoke.
"?"
what?
Lu Zhan was stunned. This time he was really confused. He didn’t react for a long time: “The family tree and the ancestor are side by side?”
Gao Wuliang said seriously: "Yes, the one who kills the sparrow will have his seniority increased dramatically! This is the supreme honor of our Lihuo Gang, and I have longed for it since I was a child."
"If I stand shoulder to shoulder with the ancestor, my father will kowtow to me twice when he sees me in the future... I am excited just thinking about this treatment."
"..."
what?
Lu Zhan had a complicated expression.
Okay... you guys in the Lihuo Gang are really playing tricks. You'll be rewarded with a super promotion if you kill a peacock, right?
Even my father would kowtow to me twice when he saw me...
Go against Tiangang!
Lu Zhan couldn't help but admire... the Lihuo Gang is really awesome.
Gao Wuliang saw that Lu Zhan was shocked, patted Lu Zhan on the shoulder, and said loyally:
"Although Brother Feng has not joined the Lihuo Gang, if you really join forces to kill the Great Peacock, you will still be respected in our Lihuo Gang. When the New Year comes, my father will kowtow to you when he sees you."
"..."
You are really a loving father and filial son...
Lu Zhan shook his head and declined, "I'm so sorry..."
"What's there to be embarrassed about? My father kowtowed to me, so what's wrong with me kowtow to you twice?"
"..."
Lu Zhan didn't know much about the Lihuo Gang, let alone Gao Wuliang and his son, but he guessed that there was some "grudge" between them, so he didn't express his opinion, but changed the subject:
"There's no rush for Old Peacock. He hasn't shown up yet. Let's deal with the matter at hand first. Brother Gao, do you know anything about the Erlong Auction House?"
Gao Wuliang looked back at the majestic auction venue and said, "There will be an auction here in three days. Brother Feng, are you interested?"
"That's natural... I want to see the world..."
"Then you've asked the right person!"
.........
-
night.
There is a mansion in the northwest mountains of the royal capital. The mansion is located on the mountainside, surrounded by mountains and rivers, and is magnificent. From a distance, it looks as beautiful as a palace in the sky.
"簌簌~"
The winter in southern Xinjiang is very cold. In the early winter, heavy snow fell. It was clearly snowing in the dead of winter, but deep in the luxurious mountain mansion, there was the fragrance of pear blossoms.
There is a pear orchard on the back mountain of this mansion. The orchard stretches for several miles and the pear blossoms are in full bloom.
But once the snow began to fall, the pear tree petals fluttered down with the snowflakes. The sky was as dark as ink, and only the accumulated snow shone with white light. For a moment, it was impossible to tell whether it was pear blossoms or falling snow.
"Tap~tap~tap~"
In the quiet pear blossom forest, snowflakes mixed with pear blossoms fell all over the ground, making slight sounds when stepped on.
The Peacock Princess, dressed in a colorful dress, walked slowly in the dim pear blossom forest. Her skirt, like flowing clouds, swayed with her steps, rolling up the withered petals.
Next to her was a middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man was wearing a black python robe and a golden crown. His face was a little honest, but his eyes revealed shrewdness. He was Ji Mengli's uncle, His Royal Highness Prince Yong.
Prince Yong was traveling with the Peacock Princess, smiling and very polite.
Although Peacock Mountain does not have as vast a territory as Southern Xinjiang, nor does it have the so-called political system, its status in Southern Xinjiang is not low. At least in front of King Yong, it has the capital to be proud of.
The Peacock Princess admired the white leaves falling all over the garden, with a look of disdain on her beautiful face:
"Your Highness Prince Yong spent a lot of manpower and resources to maintain the formation, so that the pear blossoms in the garden bloomed in the cold winter, but all for the momentary scene tonight. A snowfall, and the pear blossoms all withered. You humans are really fancy."
The idea is fancy, but it is used in the wrong place.
Sheng Yi's beautiful eyes swept across the pear forest, and saw through the surrounding spiritual formations. This kind of spiritual formation can control the temperature inside the formation, so that even if it is winter outside, the formation can be warm and blooming.
Peacock Mountain also has this kind of formation, but it is set up to cultivate spiritual medicines and bless disciples.
However, in order to enjoy the snow-falling pear blossoms, the royal family of Southern Xinjiang went to great lengths to use this formation to grow pears.
tsk...
The disdain in Sheng Yi's eyes was not concealed at all. For a royal family that was so shallow and ignorant and only knew how to enjoy itself, its downfall was inevitable.
King Yong pretended not to notice the mockery in Sheng Yi's eyes. He nodded slightly and said with a smile:
"It is worth it no matter how much manpower and material resources are spent to make His Majesty Shengyi smile."
Sheng Yi smiled without saying anything, looking aloof and arrogant.
King Yong didn't care about her pride. People in Peacock Mountain had the capital to be proud. He lowered his posture and continued:
"May I ask Your Highness Shengyi, what has Peacock Mountain thought about my previous proposal?"
King Yong had failed in his bid for the throne of Southern Xinjiang, and he had always felt unwilling to accept this. Over the years, he had appeared to be diligent in government and caring for the people, and obeyed the King of Southern Xinjiang, but in fact, he had been secretly plotting to overthrow the King of Southern Xinjiang and take his place.
The strange movements of poisonous insects and the secret realm of mirage demons are all his methods.
Since ancient times, people's hearts are like water, which can carry a boat but also capsize it. If he wants to ascend to power smoothly, in addition to the support of power, he also needs the hearts of the people.
He planned the strange movement of the poisonous insects in order to create public opinion and make the people think that the Saint was unlucky. So when the Saint ascended the throne and the poisonous insects began to move, he would step forward to deal with the insects and win the hearts of the people.
As for Zhang Ran...Zhang Ran had once received his favor and had always been in contact with him.
The successful opening of the Mirage Secret Realm was also due to his contribution... Unfortunately, Zhang Ran died in the secret realm, and the newly appointed dean of Wutong Academy is a man of the King of Southern Xinjiang.
Without the help of Wutong Academy, King Yong was a little worried. That's why he wanted to join forces with Peacock Mountain, hoping that Peacock Mountain could help him get the throne of Southern Xinjiang.
Sheng Yi stepped forward and said calmly:
"Although you are from the royal family of Southern Xinjiang, you are only a prince. Although you have status, your strength is questionable. According to your conditions, you are not qualified to cooperate with Peacock Mountain, but you know what's good for you."
"Unlike other royal families, they really look down upon our Peacock Mountain and even dare to join forces with outsiders to kill my nephew..."
"..."
King Yong naturally knew about Xuanque's affairs. He felt that this was an opportunity for cooperation and hurriedly said:
"That girl Ayiduo is really ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth. She has just secured the position of Saint, but she is so arrogant. The person who killed Prince Xuanque was her master. Maybe... she was also involved..."
Sheng Yi frowned slightly: "Have you heard of her master?"
"No." King Yong shook his head: "Whether it is the master or her lackey, it is still unknown."
Sheng Yi sneered: "You mean, it was Ayiduo who killed Xuanque? This possibility is very small. Even if that girl is arrogant, she should know that killing Xuanque will not benefit her in any way. She has no reason to do that."
"..."
King Yong originally wanted to draw hatred to the Saint, but he didn't expect that Saint Yi was not blinded by hatred and didn't fall for it. He rolled his eyes and continued:
"Your Highness has misunderstood. I don't think Ayiduo is the murderer. What I mean is that the murderer is related to her, and maybe she will protect the other party."
