Beast Summoner

What Zhao Tianlong said was a bit heart-wrenching. When had the Red Maple Leaf family ever been afraid of others? The subtext is actually, how have you ever taken me, His Majesty the King, seriously, and how have you ever been afraid of me.

Hearing this, Li Hongjun couldn't help but be afraid! This is no joke! This is the sin of deceiving the emperor! No wonder Li Zhanfeng once warned him that accompanying an emperor is like accompanying a tiger, and he should stay away from imperial politics as much as possible.

"Your Majesty, why didn't you say hello in advance when you came? I almost missed you!" Just when Li Hongjun was a little overwhelmed, a familiar voice suddenly came from not far away.

Hearing this voice, Li Hongjun let out a sigh of relief. The person who came was none other than Li Xiangyang, the fourth elder and seventh-level gold magician.

"It turns out to be the great magician Li Xiangyang!" Zhao Tianlong raised his head and glanced at Li Xiangyang, who was wearing a gold magic robe, and nodded.

I have to say that Li Xiangyang came out at the right time. Although he is the fourth elder of the Red Maple Leaf Family, he is also a seventh-level gold magician. This status in society is much more noble than the fourth elder of the Red Maple Leaf Family.

If Li Xiangyang is just the fourth elder of the Red Maple Leaf family, then Zhao Tianlong can be a fan of others and just nod his head to deal with it. After all, Li Xiangyang has no official position in the court. But he is still a seventh-level magician.

Teacher, that status is completely different.

However, the meaning of Zhao Tianlong's words is also very obvious. I am calling the Great Magician, not the Fourth Elder, so you'd better not interfere in this matter.

"Your Majesty, you are busy with national affairs every day. You must have something important to do when you suddenly come to our Earl's Mansion. I wonder if you can tell me, maybe I can be of some help." Li Xiangyang said with a smile.

There was something in Li Xiangyang's words. Zhao Tianlong told him not to meddle in other people's business, but when he said we are from the Earl's Mansion, he was just saying that I am from the Earl's Mansion. How could he say it was nosy business?

"Since the Fourth Elder is so enthusiastic, please open this secret room!" Since Li Xiangyang wanted to take control, Zhao Tianlong stopped calling Li Xiangyang the Great Magician and changed his name to the Fourth Elder.

"Open the secret room?" Li Xiangyang glanced at the secret room, and then looked at Li Hongjun in confusion, "What's going on? Why did you make His Majesty angry?"

"Fourth Elder, I am wronged! How many heads have I grown to dare to provoke His Majesty? It's that Shi Zhiping who insisted on demolishing our secret room. I told him to be careful and bear the consequences, but in the end he still took his arm

It's broken and I'm unconscious. Alas!" Li Hongjun sighed and shook his head.

"Why are you so confused! Shi Zhiping is a popular person in His Majesty's eyes. Although he has a bad character and a bad mouth, he likes to collude with powerful people, suppress dissidents, enrich his own pockets, and frame our Red Maple Leaf family whenever he likes. But he

He is an official, and he has this right."

"Your Majesty is wise and wise, how could he not see Shi Zhiping's ugly face? If Your Majesty did not believe in the loyalty of our Red Maple Leaf family, we would have been overthrown by Shi Zhiping and others. How could we be here today?"

"Tell me! Are you feeling angry and secretly killing someone? Just wait! When I find the Great Elder, I will let him take care of you!" Li Xiangyang stretched out his finger, pointed at Li Hongjun and asked angrily.

.

What Li Xiangyang said was very interesting. First, he said that Shi Zhiping was not a good bird, and His Majesty was wise and wise and had known it for a long time. Then he said that even if Li Hongjun hated Shi Zhiping, he should not have killed him, which invisibly helped Li Hongjun to absolve him of some culpability.

Turning the disabled minister from a state matter into a family matter.

"Fourth Elder, you are wronged! If you don't believe me, ask Your Majesty, Shi Zhiping was really not beaten by me, but he disabled himself. It really has nothing to do with me!" Li Hongjun looked at him with aggrieved expression.

Li Xiangyang.

"Nonsense! How can someone have fun with themselves? Even if Shi Zhiping is a fool, he can't possibly break his arm and play with it, right?" Li Xiangyang's eyes widened, and his posture seemed like if Li Hongjun didn't tell the truth, he would

It's time to take action.

"Fourth Elder, you can't accuse someone of their innocence out of thin air! At that time, Shi Zhiping said that he wanted to tear down our secret room. I saw that the door to the secret room was made of meteorite steel. I couldn't just watch him tear it down with his fists.

Door?"

"So I kindly persuaded him to use a weapon. Who knew that instead of smashing the door with a weapon, he ran towards the wall and smashed it. As a result, both arms were broken."

"I have never been in the secret room used for retreat, and no one has told me that the wall of the secret room is made of thunder white jade steel. If I had known, there would be nothing I could do to make Shi Zhiping smash the wall!" Li Hongjun was annoyed.

He said, looking as if he really didn't know about this matter.

"Hmph! You need sweet words. Your Majesty really listens to what you said. If you want me not to argue with you, unless Your Majesty admits what you said, I will report it to the Great Elder truthfully and let him take your skin off!

"Li Xiangyang snorted coldly, ignored Li Hongjun, and turned to look at Zhao Tianlong, "Your Majesty, you also heard it. Is what he said true? Was it really not him who did what happened to Shi Zhiping?"

"This..." Zhao Tianlong really didn't know what to say for a moment.

There was nothing wrong with what Li Hongjun said, that was basically what happened. However, Zhao Tianlong had reservations about Li Hongjun saying that he did not know about Thunder White Jade Steel.

How could it be said that Li Hongjun is also the sixth elder of the Hong Maple Leaf Family? As an elder, how could he not know the details of the secret room?

"Your Majesty, you don't have to worry just because Li Hongjun is the elder of the Hong Maple Leaf Family. If Li Hongjun does something that insults the family, we will not forgive him lightly. We, the Hong Maple Leaf Family, are His Majesty's most loyal subjects. We

I will never be like some people who disregard justice for their own selfish interests!" Li Xiangyang said righteously.

"Okay, let me tell you. What Li Hongjun said is basically true, but as the sixth elder of your Red Maple Leaf family, how could he not understand the situation of this secret room?" Zhao Tianlong directly stated his doubts.

come out.

"So that's what happened! Your Majesty, you really blamed Li Hongjun wrongly. He really didn't know that the secret room in the retreat was made of thunder white jade steel." After hearing Zhao Tianlong's words, Li Xiangyang looked obviously relieved.

.

"The sixth elder doesn't know, but your fourth elder knows. Isn't this a little unreasonable?" Zhao Tianlong narrowed his eyes and looked at Li Xiangyang. He hated others for deceiving him the most. Li Xiangyang's current situation looks like he is helping Li Hongjun deceive him.

he.

"Your Majesty, you don't know something. The only people who know the materials used in this secret room of seclusion are the clan leaders and great elders of the past generations. Even those who practice in seclusion in it may not necessarily know."

"There is nothing we can do about it. After all, the less people know about such a precious thing, the safer it will be. As the saying goes, if you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you are afraid of thieves missing you. Your Majesty, do you think so?" I don't know whether Li Xiangyang said it intentionally or unintentionally.

After finishing these words, he paused and looked at Zhao Tianlong.

Zhao Tianlong suddenly felt that his old face was a little red, but he forced himself to remain calm and did not show anything.

To be honest, Zhao Tianlong inevitably had some thoughts in his mind after learning the information about this secret chamber. Now that Li Xiangyang mentioned it, he felt somewhat embarrassed.

In the past, he might not have paid too much attention to these materials, but now he knew that the treasury was empty, and it was human nature to want to put good things in his pocket when he saw them.

"To be honest, I didn't know at first that the material of the secret chamber was actually thunder white jade steel. I always thought that only the door was made of meteorite steel. It was only by chance that I realized it. After all, I am a great magician of the metal system.

My perception of metal is not very strong."

"I was shocked at the time. I thought there was something wrong with my perception. Later, after asking the great elder about it, I found out that it was actually true! So Li Hongjun really didn't know about this. If you don't believe me, you can ask the great elder.

." Li Xiangyang said confidently.

"By the way, Your Majesty, why do you suddenly want to dismantle our secret room? Did you hear from someone that the materials in our secret room are precious and want to get some back for use?" Li Xiangyang smiled and opened the door.

A harmless joke.

Li Xiangyang's joke was harmless, but it sounded a bit harsh to Zhao Tianlong's ears, and he felt a little embarrassed.

"Ahem... um... I came to see Li Zhanfeng for something urgent, but Li Hongjun said that he and Li Xuanmiao were all in this secret room. Because the secret room could not be opened, Shi Zhiping said that he wanted to break the secret room and call them out.

." Zhao Tianlong cleared his throat to relieve his embarrassment before explaining.

"So that's it! Why can't I find the Great Elder? It turns out he is in the secret room? Your Majesty, you may not know that this secret room of seclusion is one-way. Unless the person inside takes the initiative to open it, otherwise only

It will only open automatically once a year." Li Xiangyang said with some embarrassment.

"Then I'll wait here!" After Zhao Tianlong finished speaking, he waved his hand gently, and the soldiers brought out from the Tianlao around him swarmed up and prepared to surround the secret room.

"Your Majesty, what are you..." Li Xiangyang looked at Zhao Tianlong in confusion. Although this was a secret room in his home, this was Zhao Tianlong's personal order. No matter how courageous he was, he would not dare to stop it.

"It's okay, I just asked them to look around to see if there is really no way to notify the inside. I really have something urgent to contact Li Zhanfeng." Zhao Tianlong raised the teacup, took a sip, and said casually.

Li Xiangyang frowned but said nothing. Zhao Tianlong's words sounded nice, but anyone who wasn't a fool could guess his true intentions.

"Creak..." There was a sudden sound from the door of the secret room, and then I saw the door of the secret room slowly opening...
