A piece of news that was enough to make everyone in Tianhe County spit out what they were eating to prevent choking to death swept Tianhe County overnight!
The Duan family is gone!
The Duan family, the head of the four major families in Tianhe County and able to cover half of the sky in Tianhe County, killed all Qi Martial Realm warriors over thirty years old in half an afternoon and one night. Young warriors and Li Martial Realm warriors were all killed. He was removed from all positions and imprisoned for exile. The female relatives were deported one after another, and all the shops of the Duan family were confiscated.
No one can imagine how this happened.
On the surface, the city lord's office has compiled thirty-seven crimes against the Duan family, including tax evasion, illegal recruitment of private armed forces, monopoly operations in some industries, etc... Any one of them is a very serious crime, and the punishment is reasonable.
But…
All fools know that when people from the Duan family break the law, it is different from ordinary people breaking the law!
The Duan family has been doing the things mentioned in the charges for who knows how many years. Why did they find out yesterday? Luo Zhi and Luo Zhi, together, convicted the Duan family without trial and judgment
There must be something fishy.
Judging from the information revealed by some insiders, the disasters encountered by the Duan family are related to the Colosseum!
Wow!
Everyone in Tianhe County has a high opinion of Master Thirteen.
To be able to bring down the Duan family... How much energy does Master Thirteen have
at the same time.
Another news also spread throughout Tianhe County.
Qi Ying, who was the most popular, killed all the Duan family's children in the hunting ground and reached the top of the selection competition with a score of 72 tokens. Moreover, the scene of Qi Ying standing in front of hundreds of warriors with one man and one stick, and the heroic spirit of thousands of clouds shouting challenges but no one dared to fight was also narrated by people, which attracted countless people to admire him.
Thirteenth Master is not simple.
Qi Ying, who has a special relationship with Master Thirteen, is not simple at all!
There are even rumors that Qi Ying is actually the illegitimate son of the Thirteenth Master before he came to Tianhe County... Some people also say that Qi Ying is a relative of Mrs. Lu's natal family and came to Tianhe County in order to become more mature. After a small competition, he obtained the qualification to go to Yunxiao Academy.
In short, starting from today, in the eyes of everyone in Tianhe County, the Thirteenth Master and Qi Ying are already incomparable existences to the four major aristocratic families, no, the three major aristocratic families!
Various forces in the city had different reactions to this. The Sun family and the Wang family are much more low-key than before, not to mention the small aristocratic families. Even the city lord's palace has no other reaction except issuing a few ultimatums. Perhaps the only one who is more active is Anjia, who is aggressively acquiring the Duan family's stores from the City Lord's Mansion auction, and is likely to take advantage of this to make a huge fortune.
An Jiahe is very happy.
Fortunately, he did not choose to join forces with the Sun and Wang families to fight against Yan Shisan - he has a natural intuition about people and knows that Yan Shisan must have a certain amount of capital to rely on if he can do all kinds of shocking things.
But it's also a pity.
If he had been firm and stood unconditionally on the side of the Colosseum and Qi Ying, the benefits An Jia would have gained would have been even greater!
It was too late to regret now. An Jiahe Xiaohe bought one store after another at a low price. It is also excellent to be able to make a fortune silently.
But An Ruyi's thoughts were completely different.
She really wanted to see Qi Ying again - but since she glanced at Qi Ying from a distance outside the hunting ground that day, she had never seen Qi Ying again in Tianhe County.
She sent people to the Colosseum and the Lu Mansion to search, but found that both places were very different from before. There was no sign of Master Thirteen in the Colosseum, and Mrs. Lu was no longer in the Lu Mansion. The two places, now There is only a group of servants taking care of it.
Yan Shisan, Lu Feifei, and Qi Ying Xuanyu's mother and son all seemed to have evaporated from Tianhe County.
…
"I'm so lucky to be able to travel with the Thirteenth Master and Mrs. Lu. We have to go to the royal capital by ourselves. I don't know how we will be displaced..."
In the carriage carriage, which was as spacious as a luxury suite, Qi Ying opened the door curtain and looked at the rows of trees on the road outside, breathing happily.
The supervisors from the royal capital were only responsible for supervising the selection competition and issuing quotas for Yunxiao Academy. They stayed in Tianhe County for just one day and then left.
Disciples who have obtained admission to Yunxiao Academy can only solve the problem of going to Yunxiao Capital on their own.
Qi Ying was originally worried about how he and Yu Ma would get through the long road. Unexpectedly, Master Thirteen solved his problem just like the rain that came in time during the drought season.
It seems that the Thirteenth Master's hometown is in Yunxiao Capital, and Mrs. Lu also has relatives in Yunxiao Capital. Together, the three parties decided to take advantage of the fact that there was still one month left before the Autumn Equinox and head directly to the capital of Yunxiao, which was thousands of miles away. On the way, they could also enjoy the mountains and rivers, so that the journey would not be boring.
Of course, the expenses along the way were all provided by Master Thirteen and Mrs. Lu, while Qi Ying and Xuan Yu were just free rides.
Xuan Yu and Mrs. Lu rode in the same carriage, and Qi Ying and Thirteenth Master rode in the same carriage - this made Qi Ying secretly happy. At least this way, she didn't have to worry about what tricks Mrs. Lu would use to get herself into her carriage.
Qi Ying couldn't help but feel terrified when she thought of how Mrs. Lu had looked at her like a wolf and a tiger a few times before!
The carriage was moving very fast. Qi Ying stuck his head outside and looked back at the city where he had lived for three months. Until the shadow of the Tianhe County wall could no longer be seen, he sat back on his seat and asked the Thirteenth Master: " Since the Thirteenth Master’s hometown is in the Royal Capital, the Thirteenth Master must know a lot about the Yunxiao Capital... How much does the Thirteenth Master know about Yunxiao Academy?”
Although he knew that Yunxiao Academy gathered the talented elites of the entire kingdom and was the place with the largest concentration of young talents in the kingdom, Qi Ying still didn't know what the concept of Yunxiao Academy was. Specifically, what was the difference between it and Tianhe Academy
The Thirteenth Master pondered for a moment and said slowly: "The capital of Yunxiao is much bigger than you think! Yunxiao Academy is completely different from Tianhe Academy... There are geniuses from poor families who come from a small city like the Nameless City. , there are also direct descendants of the seven top aristocratic families in the kingdom, and even the royal family!"
"Uh... Even the royal family's children are in there? Then, how unbalanced the children inside are in terms of class..."
"Yes! Class is a very important thing in Yunxiao Academy!" Master Thirteen looked at Qi Ying with a complicated smile on his face, "In comparison, Tianhe Academy is just like a kid playing house. Place. The competition in Yunxiao Academy is much more cruel than that in Tianhe Academy... However, precisely because of their cruel competition, Yunxiao Academy has also become a springboard for many people to cross class... Generation after generation of famous generals and capable ministers have come out of there. …”
"Well… "
Qi Ying was thoughtful.
Although he still couldn't imagine what a behemoth Yunxiao Academy was, he could at least know that in Yunxiao Academy, he would have a better chance of breaking through class boundaries.
"If I want to be able to pursue Su Su openly and openly and be recognized by the Qin family... what level do I need to reach?"
