The assassination of Ren Jie was originally a secret, but when the three elders of the Ren family entered the palace secretly with the assassin's body and the five major families, the heads of the other three major families were immediately summoned into the palace, and the news gradually began to spread among the upper echelons of Yujing City. thing.
However, relatively speaking, not many people know about this matter, but those who are interested and need to know already know it.
"You must tell me the truth. You really didn't do this thing about Ren Jie?" At this time, the emperor's favorite concubine Guo Ying came to a side hall specially designed for her father Guo Zongyou to live temporarily, and closed the doors and windows. People were standing guard outside and hurriedly asked Guo Zongyou.
Guo Zongyou's heart beat rapidly, ecstatic and excited, because he had already guessed what was going to happen.
"What about Ren Jie, oh... Did Ren Jie do something wrong? He deserves it. People like him should have died long ago. The Holy Medicine Hall that my father worked so hard to build was almost destroyed. I wanted him to die, but you also See, if I could kill him long ago, why would I hide here?" Guo Zongyou showed his cunning side at this moment and said angrily: "I don't know what your majesty thinks, just let this Ren Jie do whatever he wants. , By the way, look at your expression to see if something has happened. If you ask me this, could something really happen to Ren Jie? "
"Ren Jie was seriously injured after being assassinated and was in critical condition. Now it is said that he went to King Mingyu Dan for help. Now this matter has become a big deal. The Ren family seems to be doing something. The emperor was very angry after hearing this, but they seem to have brought Something came, and the Emperor had to order to summon other family heads. His Majesty happened to be here at that time. I vaguely heard His Majesty make some agreement. The Ren family cannot take advantage of this opportunity to profit, and the other three major families must be informed. Let's work together to catch the person behind the scenes no matter what. "Guo Ying is not very old, but she can still get some favor from the emperor in the harem, so she is not an ordinary woman. Looking at Guo Zongyou at this time, she is not. She doesn’t completely believe Guo Zongyou, because she knows too well how doting her father is on her younger brother. Even if her younger brother wants the stars in the sky, he will not hesitate to take action if his father can get them.
This...what's going on? Guo Zongyou was a little dumbfounded when he heard that Ren Jie was assassinated and the Ren family was furious. Why did the emperor and the other three major families join forces to help catch the murderer
Guo Zongyou has no idea about the complex relationship between the five major families. They can rely on each other for thousands of years to run the Mingyu Dynasty. The complexity of the relationship is unimaginable to outsiders.
"Why do you think so of me? The Holy Medicine Hall was destroyed and your brother was severely injured. Naturally, I wish that Ren Jie died, but I haven't had time to do anything. Besides, even the ancestors said that your brother is talented. With him, I will It's possible that he could follow him back to the sect, so why would I do anything wrong?" When he found out that the matter was getting serious, Guo Zongyou refused to say anything. The killer was dead, and Canhun's side would not disclose the name of his employer. He just wanted to say nothing. It will be fine if you refuse to admit it.
Seeing her father speaking so firmly, Guo Ying still didn't believe it, but she didn't say anything. After all, it was her father. The reason why she wanted to ask clearly was to help her father think of a way out, but even so, she Let's sit down and discuss it with Guo Zongyou. After all, we can't always let Guo Zongyou live in the side hall next to the swing. Although the emperor has given permission, this is not good after all.
At the same time, Fang Yan, who was gathering people's hearts in the military camp, laughed a few times when he heard the news, and then suddenly became furious and destroyed everything in the room. He was happy that Ren Jie died, but he couldn't. Killing him with his own hands to avenge his previous shame made him hate and make him angry.
Because the shame and hatred are so deep that they have penetrated into his bones and marrow. He has been cultivating crazily recently, and he has done many things against his will and even started to drift away from the Fang family, all in order to avenge his shame. As a result, he suddenly heard Ren Jie was actually assassinated and was about to die.
… … …
"Pa..." Gao Peng, who was drinking alone and quietly thinking about a reform plan, heard the news from his father, and the wine glass in his hand unconsciously broke.
do you died? At stake, will he die
The Ren family wants to use the secret agreement to make such a big move. It seems that something big has happened. Regardless of whether he dies or not, the Ren family cannot be allowed to use the secret agreement to do things.
"Come here, summon all the people in charge immediately, hurry up." Gao Peng immediately put down what he was doing and stood up suddenly, because he was very clear about the consequences of the secret agreement once it was used. He no longer thought about whether Ren Jie would live or die, and how he would not survive in this turmoil. The most important thing is to let the Gao family suffer or even gain benefits.
… …
"Hmph, it seems that there are so many people who want him dead, and someone actually took action early." Fang Qi was sitting in the hall, and all the elders of the family were also present, because after Fang Tianen knew the news, he found an opportunity to secretly spread it back home. , after all, it is the Ren family who wants to use the thousand-year secret agreement of the five major families, don't let them take the opportunity to do something and get into trouble.
Fang Qi muttered to herself. Although she wanted to kill Ren Jie at that time, she thought about too many things over and over again, but at this time she felt that she still didn't think enough. Just like now, the Ren family will use the five major families for thousands of years. She had never thought about the secret date before.
However, the Ren family is looking for death. They are already very suspicious of His Majesty. They dare to do such a thing. If they really dare to use this matter to expand their power and attack other families and even the royal family, then they may really come into contact with them. Your Majesty has drawn the line.
It stands to reason that the heads of the five major families have been summoned, and usually they can only know the news after the heads of the house come back. Now that the heads of the house have just gone, they have the opportunity to send the news to others. It is obviously His Majesty's intention.
"Be prepared as I just said. On the one hand, you should clean up your family's internal affairs and defend yourself. At the same time, prepare a few groups of people to be on standby. Once the Ren family makes a big move, we will help them." Fang Qi had already quickly moved on. After issuing dozens of orders, with a wave of his hand, many elders and people in charge were sent down to do their work.
All the elders and the stewards agreed and left. Only Fang Yuesong, the third elder of the Fang family, was sitting there, feeling a little nervous because Fang Qi had asked him to stay at the beginning and said he had other matters to explain. What was going on
"Third Elder, I don't care whether Ren Jie is dead or alive, but since this is the case now, there is no need for us to take action. Anyway, I don't want anyone to see what he has in his hand, and I don't want anyone to know about it anymore. You understand. "?" Because Fang Yuesong was present at the time, Fang Qi decided to let Fang Yuesong be responsible for this matter. This matter has been making her sleepless and eating, and every time she thinks of the scene at that time, she will wake up angrily in the middle of the night.
"Yes, please rest assured, eldest lady, I will definitely get the things." Because Fang Qi has the status of giving orders on behalf of the head of the family, and her relationship with Lan Tian, the Fang family elders do not dare to show any neglect, and Fang Yuesong is even more knowledgeable. Fang Qi was cold and ruthless, so he stood up in a hurry and agreed.
"Then Ren Jie can borrow the power of his bodyguards. Although his bodyguards are not strong, they are still troublesome. We must prevent the Ren family from sending anyone else..." Fang Qi was thinking as she spoke.
"In this way, I will send five people from the supernatural power realm and 20 elite secret guards from the true energy realm to follow to ensure nothing goes wrong. Remember, it doesn't matter if you can't rob it openly. Everyone else can be killed, as long as you don't kill them That Ren Jie is nothing." Originally, Fang Qi wanted to kill Ren Jie together, but now that the matter has become serious, she can only change her strategy.
"Yes." Fang Yuesong felt relieved when he heard that Ren Jie was not allowed to be killed. It didn't matter if Ren Jie was killed by others, he didn't want to become a victim in the end. If Renjie hadn't been fooled, the matter wouldn't have been a big deal. As Fang Qi said, it wouldn't be a big deal to just rob him, especially outside. As for the guards around Ren Jie and Ren Jie himself, Fang Yuesong really didn't pay attention to them. There were not many people in Yujing City who he could see.
… … … … … …
"It's okay, it's okay. It seems that the Remnant Soul Organization doesn't know that the Nine-Character Killing Mark is on this killer, otherwise it would be impossible to let them leave." Half a day has passed since leaving Yujing City, and Fatty has been very worried, so Constantly urging Tong Qiang and the others. Because the speed of the spirit beast car is definitely no problem, it is the speed of the Guards. When the Guards traveled, Tong Qiang followed the wartime standards and brought two horses with them and drove at full speed.
At this time, they had passed through another city and were far away from Yujing City. The fat man felt relieved and leaned on the large chair of the spirit beast. He turned to look at Ren Jie, only to find that Ren Jie was still studying there. Nine-character killing seal.
In the spirit beast vehicle, there is no need to worry about the murderous aura and aura leaking from the nine-character killing seal, so as soon as Ren Jie entered the spirit beast vehicle, he asked Fatty to take out the nine-character killing seal and start studying it.
A top-notch spiritual weapon or a remnant soul has a special meaning among the nine kills of the killer organization. It is a magic weapon that can only be held by the strongest in the ninth kill.
Although he could feel the unusualness of this herringbone killing seal from some details and could also identify it as a top-grade spiritual weapon, Ren Jie found that he still could not see through this top-grade spiritual weapon, which was different from ordinary low-grade spiritual weapons. , you can tell at a glance its quality, even its internal structure, tempering, etc.
To put it bluntly, if you analyze it carefully, Ren Jie can even restore a low-grade spiritual weapon step by step. Even the materials used, the heat and techniques used by the person who refined it, the runes and other powers contained in it, all the battles he has gone through will not matter. Can see through.
But this was not the case with this exquisite spiritual weapon, but the more it went like this, the more mysterious and profound it felt to Ren Jie.
There are nine extremely clear killing characters on this small seal, all of which are red, blood red, and the blood is still in the state of blood, which seems to have a flowing feeling. However, there is a seal on the nine-character killing seal. Ren Jie can see this, so he does not dare to try to control or use it for the time being.
"Meal Ticket Boss, have you seen enough? What are you going to do with this thing?" Seeing this human-character killing seal always made Fatty a little restless. At this moment, Fatty finally couldn't help but go over and ask.
Ren Jie raised his head and glanced at the fat man. At this time, Ren Jie's body had adapted a lot and his complexion was getting better.
"You are not afraid of fighting, you are not afraid of taking risks, you are not afraid of the life-threatening danger of refining medicine, and you are not usually a meticulous person. You dared to do so many bold things in the past. But now you always care so much about this herringbone killing seal, You said before that someone you knew once owned something like this, and you knew it in such detail. That person should be your family member..."
Seeing Ren Jie looking at him and saying this information, Fatty suddenly had a bad feeling, but he still didn't understand what Ren Jie was going to do. What was he talking about
"What you are really afraid of may not necessarily be this remnant soul. You may be worried a little bit, but why do I always feel like you are a child who ran away from home? Are you afraid that your family will find you?" Although Ren Jie would not take the initiative to explore Fatty's privacy, It was a secret, but Fatty had been struggling with this issue for too long. Ren Jie put aside this guess and judgment and looked at Fatty with a smile.
"Uh..." The fat man was stunned for a moment. Although he tried his best to pretend to be calm, his shock was already seen by Ren Jie.
How can it be? How did the meal ticket boss know that he had run away from home? Could it be just a guess.
The fat man was a little panicked because he didn't expect Ren Jie to say this directly, and he also...guessed it correctly.
"I'm just talking casually. Don't mention that even the remnant soul doesn't know that this herringbone killing seal is in our hands. Even if the remnant soul knows that the distance is probably thousands of miles away from your family, and for our own safety, we It's impossible to let the remnant soul know, so just keep your heart in your stomach. Be normal. We are now rushing to the vicinity of Mingyu Pill King and entering the Monster Abyss from there. Although you are mainly responsible for collecting medicine, you must also Let’s practice and fight together, so…”
Ren Jie smiled and said: "Hurry up and practice, otherwise you will know the consequences of waiting for me to help you practice in person..."
Ren Jie saw the fat man's panic, but he did not intend to continue talking about it. The reason why he said this was just to reassure the fat man, stop thinking about it all day long, and practice honestly. Sure enough, as soon as Ren Jie said that he would personally help him practice, the fat man was so frightened that the fat on his body trembled. He hurriedly shook his head and waved his hands, saying that he must do what he can do by himself, and he would never suffer such a serious labor injury again. The boss has worked hard.
The fat man finally stopped worrying unfoundedly. Ren Jie played with it for a while before letting the fat man put away the Nine Kills and began to concentrate on practicing.
Not long after Ren Jie and the others left Yujing City, Fang Yuesong and a group of people also left Yujing City secretly. They were not as fanatic as Ren Jie and the others, but as soon as they left Yujing City, they rushed to catch up based on the intelligence. Because according to intelligence, Ren Jie and the others should have left Yujing City for a few hours. The distance between them is already six to seven hundred miles, and they must catch up as soon as possible.
Fang Yuesong led his men to chase all the way until dark before contacting the Fang family's intelligence personnel. This was a special piece of mother-in-law jade. After being refined through special refining techniques and formations, the headquarters could quickly pass on the news.
"Ren Jie and others were discovered half an hour ago, nine hundred miles away from where you are now..."
Nine hundred miles away...outside...
Fang Yuesong was dumbfounded when he saw the news. How could this be possible? When he set out, it was confirmed that the distance was less than 700 miles away. As a result, he and his men chased after him for a long time. Now that it was getting dark, the opponent was actually 900 miles away. , how is this possible, is it a mistake
Fang Yuesong immediately used his magic power to pass his thoughts to his family, including where he was at the moment, so that they could confirm whether they were mistaken.
"It is confirmed that the spirit beast of the head of the Ren family is driving through the official road and has just passed through Fengta City. The intelligence personnel of the Fang family along the way have been notified to pay attention at all times."
When he saw these words, Fang Yuesong's face became extremely ugly. After chasing for a long time, he ended up with this result. It's so shameful, so shameful.
"Let's go, don't let any pause, go at full speed, don't stop even if the horse runs to death, chase, chase all night long." Fang Yuesong put away the mother-in-law messenger jade, shouted loudly, urged the horse to speed up and chased after him. Twenty-five people were behind him. The man also urged his horse desperately to catch up.
