Traveling through time and space to become the richest woman and falling in love with the young mast
Chapter 28 The ruthless way
He felt that this way of handling the matter was more appropriate and could prevent similar incidents from happening again.
Then, he added, "Your Flame Sect is so powerful that you can easily bribe our Lianlan Sect's people."
Huangfu Ji knew very well that if the matter of the evil power was not more serious than this, the elders' matters would not be shelved.
However, he did not intend to let those traitors go. He wanted to let them know the consequences of betraying Lianlanmen.
Peng Shiyan felt somewhat unhappy after hearing what Huangfu Ji said, but he also understood that the current situation was not favorable to them, so he could only accept the result helplessly.
He sighed inwardly, thinking that this time he had lost both the wife and the army.
This Lu Zhong is really something, buying things randomly!
Huangfu Ji looked at Peng Shiyan's expression and knew that he must be feeling bad, but he didn't care.
All he cared about was his son's safety and the interests of Lianlan Sect.
Peng Shiyan was speechless after being blocked by Huangfu Ji and had to give up.
He shook his sleeves angrily and turned away.
"Father!" Peng Qinqin had been waiting anxiously outside the door. When she saw her father come out, she hurried to greet him.
"Master!" Yang Wei also followed behind, looking at Peng Shiyan with concern.
Peng Shiyan's face was gloomy. He didn't say anything and just walked forward silently.
Peng Qinqin and Yang Wei looked at each other and saw worry in each other's eyes.
They didn't know how Peng Shiyan would deal with this matter, but they knew that this incident would definitely bring him a lot of pressure.
Peng Shiyan suddenly stopped, turned around, and looked directly at Peng Qinqin. He asked sternly, "Qinqin, how many of us will advance to the third round this time?"
Peng Qinqin was startled by his look and was speechless for a moment.
Her mind was completely focused on Huangfu Yi, and she didn't pay attention to the result of the game at all, so naturally she couldn't answer this question.
Seeing this, Yang Wei, who was standing by, quickly pulled Peng Qinqin's sleeve and quietly made the number "five" with his hand.
Peng Qinqin nodded quickly and stammered, "Five, five..."
Peng Shiyan noticed Yang Wei's little action and suddenly felt a surge of anger in his heart.
He stared at Peng Qinqin closely, and said in an increasingly serious tone, "Qinqin, have you been hanging around that Huangfu Yi lately?"
Peng Qinqin lowered her head, a bitter smile on her face. She really wanted to be around Huangfu Yi, but the reality made it impossible for her to do so.
“Father…” Peng Qinqin tried to explain, but her voice sounded a little weak.
Peng Shiyan's rage grew stronger, and he shouted, "You don't even know anything about the sect?! Have you ever really cared? All you think about all day is men. Now that something so serious has happened, your mind is still full of men! Don't forget, you are the Young Master of the Yanhuo Sect!"
Peng Qinqin hunched her neck, not daring to look her father in the eye. In the past, her mother would always speak up for her in such situations, but now her mother was no longer around...
She was still afraid of her father in her heart.
"Master, Qinqin just made the mistake every woman would make..." falling in love with someone who didn't love her.
Yang Wei is feeling sad. Don’t drag him into your quarrel with your father and daughter.
He is standing in the middle and is in a dilemma!
"Humph!" Peng Shiyan swung his sleeves, "You really have been spoiled by your mother."
He didn't object to Peng Qinqin liking Huangfu Yi, but he couldn't accept his daughter stooping to please others.
When he saw the news that the carrier pigeon had sent back, he was almost furious!
Peng Shiyan even wanted to have a second child.
And that Huangfu Yi actually dared to humiliate the Yanhuo Sect many times.
He remembered.
"Father..." Peng Qinqin's eyes were filled with tears.
"Yang Wei!"
"Master."
"Keep an eye on her. I don't want to hear people say that my daughter, Peng Shiyan, is going to flirt with someone else. And before Lu Zhong's matter is resolved, don't let anything else happen!"
"Yes!"
"Only five out of thirty people got in. I don't know what you guys do for a living!" Peng Shiyan yelled, "Two of the top ten on the list must get in."
"..." What he said didn't count. Why was all the pressure on him? "Yes, Master."
Peng Qinqin's tears slid down her cheeks, dripping onto the ground, splashing teardrops.
She knew that she had really angered her father this time, but she couldn't let go of her feelings for Huangfu Yi.
Yang Wei looked at the scene in front of him and felt helpless.
He knew his master's love and expectations for Qinqin, and he also understood Qinqin's persistence in love.
Peng Shiyan's expression remained gloomy. He stared at Peng Qinqin, a hint of disappointment flashing in his eyes.
He turned and left, leaving Peng Qinqin and Yang Wei there.
Yang Wei sighed, patted Peng Qinqin's shoulder gently, and comforted her, "Qinqin, don't cry for now, let's think of a solution."
Peng Qinqin raised her head, looked at Yang Wei with tearful eyes, and said with a sob, "Brother, what should I do? I really love him..."
Although they had only met a few times.
Yang Wei frowned, thought for a moment and said, "Perhaps we can take a long-term view and first find a way to solve the current problem, and then slowly strive for Master's understanding."
Peng Qinqin nodded, wiped the tears from her face, and said with a firm look in her eyes: "Okay, I'll listen to you."
After discussing it, the two decided to stabilize Peng Qinqin's emotions first to prevent her from doing anything extreme.
At the same time, they also plan to find an opportunity to communicate with Peng Shiyan and try to resolve the conflict between father and daughter.
However, Peng Shiyan's attitude remained firm. He did not want to see his daughter pursuing a man in such a humbly way.
He believed that as a disciple of the Flame Sect, especially the young master, he was the face of the sect and should have his own dignity and pride.
Peng Qinqin and Yang Wei were in a dilemma and they didn't know how to break the deadlock.
Yang Wei tried to persuade Peng Qinqin to give up, saying that there were many good men in the world, and if it didn't work, she could just look at him.
Peng Qinqin said with a firm face: "I just like him, and I will not marry anyone else!" After that, she turned and left.
When Peng Shiyan learned about this, he shouted angrily, "Let her go! She really can't live without a man!"
Yang Wei couldn't help but wonder, what would Huangfu Yi think about Peng Qinqin's deep affection?
However, Huangfu Yi had no time to care about Peng Qinqin's affairs, because he was determined to practice the ruthless way and was destined not to have a woman in this life.
At this time, Huangfu Ji was checking Elder Lu's poison needle in Huangfu Yi's room.
"Have you checked? What kind of poison is it?" Huangfu Ji asked with a frown.
"Bone erosion." Huangfu Yi raised his head and answered calmly.
Once bone erosion comes into contact with the skin, it will spread rapidly in the human body, destroying bones and other tissues. Symptoms of poisoning include severe pain, muscle spasms, difficulty breathing and even death.
It can be said to be highly poisonous.
Elder Lu really wanted him to die.
Huangfu Ji's expression darkened. "It's the Northern Barbarians again! What on earth do they want to do?!"
The room fell into silence.
After a long while, Huangfu Yi continued, "The medicine that Master Xiao found from the elders was made from the blood of children."
Huangfu Ji slammed the table vigorously, "This is simply unscrupulous."
"Not only that," Huangfu Yi paused, then continued, "I suspect that the Flame Sect has an insider, or perhaps the three major sects all have insiders..."
He also sent people to investigate, and in short, things were far from as simple as they seemed.
Huangfu Ji took a deep breath and said, "This matter must be thoroughly investigated and no leniency will be shown."
"Yeah." Huangfu Yi said lightly.
Huangfu Ji: "We will set off immediately after the competition."
Speaking of this, Huangfu Yi became displeased.
He has never wanted to participate in any martial arts competition.
It's so annoying! I have to participate in that lousy competition and waste my time and energy.
Comparing myself with those boring people is just boring!
The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became. He couldn't help but frown, secretly complaining about Huangfu Ji's persistence in his heart.
If Huangfu Ji hadn't used that incident to threaten him, he would never have agreed!
But since he had already promised Huangfu Ji, he just hoped that the competition would end as soon as possible so that he could get rid of these troubles and set off for the grassland.
Huangfu Ji asked again: "What's going on with Peng Qinqin?"
"I don't know, I don't know." Huangfu Yi shrugged and said innocently.
In his eyes, she was a neurotic woman.
This made him think of Dongfang Qingmo, the woman disguised as a man.
He is well versed in bone reading and can tell the true gender of a person with just one glance.
As for Dongfang Qingmo, he could tell at a glance that she was actually a woman.
He actually thought this person was very interesting. Although he had no internal strength at all, he was extremely courageous and did things entirely based on his courage and determination.
"It's best if you have no relationship with them. You'd better have less contact with people from the Flame Sect." Huangfu Ji reminded seriously.
Because he knew very well that Peng Shiyan always smiled on the surface, but in fact, no one knew how many evil intentions he had hidden behind the scenes.
"..."
Huangfu Yi remained silent. He was not interested in the first place.
"Alright, go and rest. There will be a martial arts competition in a few days. If you have anything, send me a pigeon. I'm going back to the sect first."
Lianlan Gate is on the hill outside Lianyi City. It only takes a moment (15 minutes) to get there by galloping out of the city.
Huangfu Yi decisively sent Ying to escort him away.
-
Dongfang Ti hurried back to Zuixianglou.
As soon as he entered the backyard, he quickly found the carrier pigeon, which was an important tool for him to communicate with Eastern Light Water.
He took out a note he had already written from his pocket and carefully stuffed it into the pigeon's leg ring.
At this moment, Dongfang Qingmo also rushed to the backyard.
She saw her second uncle dealing with a carrier pigeon, but when she wanted to ask, the pigeon had already spread its wings and flew away, disappearing into the sky.
"Second Uncle..." Dongfang Qingmo spoke hesitantly.
She actually wanted to know what happened to Xu Jun later, but she was worried about exposing her whereabouts.
I was hesitating about how to start...
Dongfang Ti turned around and looked at Dongfang Qingmo, his eyes filled with seriousness and concern: "Mo'er, you should try to stay at home recently and don't wander around."
Dongfang Qingmo was startled and asked hurriedly, "What's wrong, Second Uncle? Did something big happen?"
The scene of chaos in the world emerged in her mind.
She doesn't know any martial arts at all. If something really happens, she will probably be at the mercy of others.
How about some poison?!
At least in the worst case scenario, she can control her own life and death and avoid suffering too much.
What an unambitious idea.
We have to fight to the death...
Dongfang Ti was silent for a while, and finally decided not to tell Dongfang Qingmo the truth, so as not to make her worry too much: "Listen to your second uncle, he won't harm you."
Although Dongfang Qingmo was full of doubts, she also knew her second uncle's character. Since he was unwilling to say, he must have his reasons.
So she had no choice but to nod and agree: "Okay, Second Uncle."
Dongfang Ti relaxed a little upon seeing this and asked, "How's the restaurant business lately?"
"Business is good." Dongfang Qingmo replied.
It seemed that she had no choice but to find out the situation in other ways.
The two exchanged a few more pleasantries, and Dongfang Ti repeatedly warned her not to run around and to stay in the restaurant.
The next day, Qian Shuishui came to look for Dongfang Qingmo early in the morning. She tapped the ground with her fingertips, lightly jumped onto the wall, and then tapped the ground again, coming to Dongfang Qingmo's window sill.
"Qingmo! Qingmo?" She gently tapped the window, trying to wake up Dongfang Qingmo.
Dongfang Qingmo rubbed his eyes and struggled to get up from the bed, "Shui Shui, come in!"
She really didn't want to think about it.
Qian Shuishui looked around furtively to make sure no one noticed her, then pushed the window open and walked in, "Then I'll come in..."
"Shui Shui, why did you get up so early?" Dongfang Qingmo asked.
It's only the morning of the 11th, the sun hasn't even come out yet, so it's time to go to work...
"I'm so pissed off, so pissed off." Qian Shuishui slumped down on a rattan chair, her arms folded across her chest, and said angrily, "My brother scolded me when I got home last night! He told me why a girl like me was running around all the time. I didn't get a good sleep the whole night."
"Ah?" Dongfang Qingmo sat up in surprise, "Your brother is here?"
She always thought Qian Shuishui had only one younger brother.
"Yes, the leader of Zisenmen is my brother~~" Qian Shuishui explained.
"Is that so? What's your brother's name? Qian Fufu?" Dongfang Qingmo asked curiously.
"Uh... Qian Pangpang, but he wasn't fat at all. It's my mother who hopes he will be fat and white in the future." Qian Shuishui explained.
"It's a cute name..." Dongfang Qingmo smiled.
Qian Shuishui suddenly raised her eyebrows, "Hmm? How about Qingmo be my sister-in-law!"
"No, no." Dongfang Qingmo waved his hands quickly, "I already have someone I like."
"Oh, what a pity!" Qian Shuishui lamented, "Who was that person?"
Qian Shuishui's anger seemed to be diluted a lot by this sentence, and her gossipy heart was burning.
Dongfang Qingmo blinked and answered mysteriously: "Huangfu Yi!"
"What? It's him again? Why do you both like him?" Qian Shuishui asked in confusion.
She knew of several.
Are there no men left in the world?!
"Haha, maybe it's just lust? Love at first sight?"
