Jinyang City, the Zhang Family Council Hall!
The current patriarch of the Zhang family. Zhang Bao, who was sitting at the head of the meeting hall, had a terribly gloomy expression.
In addition to Zhang Bao, there are four elders in the meeting hall, including the first elder, third elder, eighth elder, and seventeenth elder.
Zhang Bao also took over as the head of the Zhang family seventeen years ago. Zhang Bao's identity was originally not enough to compete for the position of the head of the Zhang family. Grandpa Zhang Bao's third brother was the sixth elder of the Zhang family at the time, and Zhang Bao's family was actually not powerful in the Zhang family. However, because of the special background of his wife Xun Yulian and Zhang Bao's strength gradually becoming the strongest person in the family, he was able to successfully control the entire Zhang family and become the current patriarch of the Zhang family.
Two years after Zhang Bao became the head of the Zhang family, he and Xun Yulian gave birth to a son, Zhang Feng. Zhang Feng was spoiled and spoiled since he was a child, and he could not tolerate the slightest grievance, and gradually developed a character of vindictiveness.
Although he restrained himself a lot within the family when he grew up, he naturally assumed an aggressive attitude when dealing with outsiders. Because the Zhang family is very powerful. So Zhang Feng almost never suffered a disadvantage in Jinyang City.
In Jinyang City, where Zhang Feng walked, even on the streets, there was usually no sound, no one dared to speak out, for fear of causing trouble to his upper body, which showed that he was domineering.
When Zhang Feng first went to Ziye City, in the restaurant outside Ziye College, no one was allowed to make noise while he was eating.
Xia Yan and Zhang Feng had enmity because the local dog barked a few times and offended Zhang Feng.
"boom!"
Zhang Bao suddenly stood up and slapped the table with his palm.
A fierce murderous aura erupted from his body. There is also a terrifying light in the eyes.
Several family elders all looked dignified and stern. The temperature of the surrounding air seemed to drop a lot in an instant.
"who!"
"Who the hell dares to attack my Feng'er!"
Zhang Bao was almost hoarse, his sleeves were puffed up, his voice was low and terrifying, and he stayed together in the meeting hall for a long time.
"Purple Leaf Academy! Feng'er disappeared in Purple Leaf Academy? Hmph, missing, good, good." Zhang Bao roared.
"Great Elder, what do you think about this matter?!" Suddenly, Zhang Bao shot his gaze at the Great Elder. Shen Sheng asked.
"Patriarch, the dean of Ziye College wrote a letter saying that Zhang Feng had been missing for many days. Ziye College sent people to search, but failed to find his whereabouts. Counting the date, when Zhang Feng disappeared, when Zhang Qilian, the head of our family's outer courtyard, arrived in Ziye City It matches." The Great Elder looked at Zhang Bao, saw that Zhang Bao was silent, and then continued, "Zhang Qilian, lost news at the same time as Zhang Bao, and also Zhang Haiquan and Zhang Hongfei."
"According to the meaning in the letter, the three children of the Zhang family in Ziye College disappeared at the same time. Zhang Qilian was not mentioned in the letter. It should be that Liu Yun, the head of Ziye College, didn't know that Zhang Qilian and Zhang Feng were together. .” The voice of the Great Elder also revealed a repressed atmosphere.
"There are two possibilities for Zhang Feng's disappearance. One is that he was kidnapped and wanted to blackmail him. If this is the possibility, the kidnapper will definitely contact us. The second possibility is that Zhang Feng was killed and destroyed. The corpse will disappear." The Great Elder continued to analyze.
"boom!"
Zhang Bao slammed the solid table again. However, the fierce murderous intent emanating from his body just now disappeared without a trace, and even the anger on his face faded a bit.
This treasure is really extraordinary, it can suppress the anger in my heart so quickly.
"The first possibility is unlikely. So far, the Zhang family has not received any news from anyone. Therefore, most of the four members of the Zhang family and Zhang Feng are already dead. Tell me, what will happen to killing the four Zhang Feng?" Who is it?!" Zhang Bao turned his eyes, and a ray of light shot out from his eyes.
"Maybe our enemy." The Eighth Elder said.
The Zhang family is one of the two largest families in Jinyang City. In many places, there will inevitably be some enemies.
But, who is it that can go to Ziye College and kill Zhang Feng and the others
"Not necessarily, our enemies, there are not many who can quietly kill the four of them. Zhang Qilian's strength is not weak." The third elder interjected.
There are many enemies, but there are not many who are truly powerful.
Moreover, such an enemy doesn't bother to do this, because it is completely meaningless.
"Patriarch, I think it's better to send someone to investigate. Isn't Xiang Ziqi still in Ziye Academy?!" The Great Elder said in a dark voice.
"En!" Zhang Bao nodded, "That's right, that Xiang Ziqi also sent someone to send a letter saying that Zhang Feng has been missing for many days, and she is worried that Zhang Feng will be in danger."
"Well, Great Elder, you go and investigate in person. If there is any result, send someone to inform me immediately." Zhang Bao nodded and said to the Great Elder.
"Yes, Patriarch!" The Great Elder responded immediately.
"Could this matter have something to do with Liu Yun, the dean of Ziye College?!" The third elder pondered, his eyes flashing.
"Liu Yun?!" Hearing this, Zhang Bao's body trembled.
Liu Yun, that is the dean of a first-class academy, and has a complicated relationship with the Holy Land, and there are countless strong people who came out of Ziye Academy. However, what does the death of Zhang Feng and others have to do with Liu Yunneng
Could it be that Liu Yun will kill Zhang Feng and the others? You know, Zhang Hongfei has been practicing in Ziye Academy for nine years, and he has been fine all the time
"Probably not. As Liu Yun, why did you kill Zhang Feng and the others?!" Zhang Bao shook his head.
"Patriarch, I'm just a little confused. As the head of Ziye College, Liu Yun's strength has already entered the realm of the Spiritual Sect. Someone killed someone in Ziye College. He didn't even notice..." The third elder frowned, "So, I Some puzzled."
Hearing what the third elder said, Zhang Bao's heart suddenly moved.
"No matter what, let's investigate first, hmph—if we find the murderer, I'll tear him into pieces!" Zhang Bao gritted his teeth and roared in a low voice, "If there is a person, kill that person, and if there is a family, kill a family! "
"Great Elder. Pay special attention to Feng'er's enemies after going to Purple Leaf City." Zhang Bao added in a sinister tone.
Several elders gasped.
…
A week later, the elder of the Zhang family arrived in Ziye City, and on the same day he came to Ziye College.
The guards of Ziye Academy naturally stopped the elders of the Zhang family. However, the elder said that he wanted to find a student from the academy, Xiang Ziqi, so the guard went to inform Xiang Ziqi.
Xiang Ziqi also met the great elder of the Zhang family, and when he saw the great elder coming in person, of course he left the academy right away.
Xiang Ziqi, the elder of the Zhang family, took him to a restaurant and asked carefully about the people Zhang Feng had contacted in the academy and what happened before Zhang Feng disappeared.
At the beginning, Xiang Ziqi didn't mention the enmity between Zhang Feng and Xia Yan, but after being pressed by the elder, Xiang Ziqi told the story of Zhang Feng's enmity with Xia Yan.
"Great Elder, Xia Yan is only fifteen years old, how could he kill Zhang Feng and the others?!" Xiang Ziqi did not believe that the murderer was Xia Yan, "Zhang Feng and the others are missing, so they may not have died, maybe... maybe they went Where is it!"
Xiang Ziqi didn't want to believe that Zhang Feng was dead, nor did she want to believe that Zhang Feng was killed by Xia Yan.
"Hmph, what do you know?!" The elder snorted coldly, staring at Xiangziqi like a knife, "Xiangziqi, you said that Xia Yan is Liu Yun's disciple? Now, why not go to the academy exchange meeting?" Is it? Then Xia Yan’s strength is very strong! To be able to participate in the first-class college exchange meeting, he must have the strength of a late-stage spiritual master. Zhang Feng and the others are probably killed by this Xia Yan.”
"Impossible!" Xiang Ziqi quickly denied, "Xia Yan, I won't kill Zhang Feng and the others."
"Okay, you can't tell anyone about this matter, you know? Be honest, if not, you can help your family. It will be hard after Jinyang City." The Great Elder threatened, "Now, you can Go back to the academy. I will find out if Xia Yan killed the four of Zhang Feng."
Xiang Ziqi looked at the livid face of the elder, and wanted to speak for Xia Yan again, but in the end he didn't say anything, turned around, left the restaurant and returned to the college.
"How could this happen? Xia Yan, how could you kill Zhang Feng? No, it won't happen." Along the way, Xiang Ziqi was full of thoughts like this.
"There are four of Zhang Feng and the others, how could they be killed? Maybe Zhang Feng went to other places? The Dragon Continent is so big, Zhang Feng might also be a mercenary." Xiang Ziqi imagined all kinds of possibilities, In the end, I couldn't hold it back anymore, and wept bitterly.
"Great Elder, then Xia Yan went to Ziyue City to participate in the exchange meeting, then we..."
Beside the Great Elder, a leading guard asked in a low voice.
The great elder raised his right hand, stopping the guard's words.
"Don't worry, Ziye College must have some students who are more familiar with Xia Yan. Let's start with them first. This Xia Yan is the main suspect. However, it may not be him. And he belongs to Liu Yun Disciple, we must be cautious." The Great Elder narrowed his eyes slightly, took a breath and said slowly.
"Yes, Great Elder! Then..." the guard turned his head, "Then let's secretly investigate those who are closer to Xia Yan."
"Well, be careful, it's best not to hurt people. If it's not Xia Yan, then we won't be able to explain it." The Great Elder finally waved his hand at the headed guard.
"Yes, Great Elder!" After the guard finished speaking, he turned around and left the restaurant with the people.
"The patriarch asked me to find out who killed Zhang Feng. I always want to find out a result. Now, from Xiang Ziqi, I know that this Xia Yan is Zhang Feng's enemy who only became grudges after he came to Ziye Academy. And , is Liu Yun's disciple. In this case, it will be more difficult."
Alone in the room, the elder of the Zhang family was thinking in his mind.
"Hey! Wait for these two days before spreading the news to Jinyang City, and let the patriarch make up his own mind. With the patriarch's character, if he is sure that Xia Yan is the murderer, he will probably ignore Liu Yun's identity and insist on The one who killed Xia Yan." The Great Elder stood up and walked around the room with some impatient steps.
