Cultivation in the Family: Everyone is a villain

"Hou Yuxiao?"

While everyone was gearing up, there was a strange look on Zhao Qingxue's face.

The master's love book calculated that the first man she met when she went down the mountain would have the word "Xiao" in his name, which was his love disaster. As he met Fang Jinghong, he no longer

The attack collapsed.

Now I actually met Hou Yuxiao again...

Zhao Qingxue turned to look behind her, only to find that "Ren Feng's" face was very ugly, and there was even some murderous intent in his eyes. He immediately asked curiously: "Fang... ahem, does it mean that Senior Ren also has a grudge against this Hou Yuxiao?"

The killing intent that had just gathered in Hou Yuxiao's eyes was extinguished in an instant, and he turned to look at Zhao Qingxue, who was already blushing, with doubts in his eyes.

How did this little Taoist nun guess her identity...

Zhao Qingxue's face turned a little dark red. Fortunately, the sky had gradually darkened, otherwise others would have noticed something strange about her.

In the first few days after arriving in Wanyang County, Zhao Qingxue heard Fang Jinghong’s name so many times from other people’s mouths that her ears almost grew calluses. The three heads of the Qinglong Society committed four major crimes in succession, killing Shenyin.

The leader of the sect is He Lian Wuji, a master on the Tiger List.

Only then did she realize that Fang Jinghong, whom Tongtianhe met, was actually so famous.

That day when she rescued Wan Xiaolou at Jinfeng Xiaoyu Tower, the first time she saw "Ren Feng", she already felt a bit familiar. Later, she went back and thought about it for a long time, and finally remembered why she felt familiar.

The opponent's crutches wrapped in oilcloth and the long sword at his waist looked like the weapons of the young grandmaster Fang Jinghong whom he met in Tongtian River before.

But at this time, she was just suspicious. After all, there was really no flaw in Ren Feng's appearance.

But as she investigated over the next few days, she discovered that something was wrong. This Ren Feng was also at the first level of a Grandmaster. It was also early June, and he had just arrived in Wanyang County in front of them. The most important thing was that the other party actually used

Still in the name of a casual cultivator, no one had heard of Ren Feng before.

At this point, Zhao Qingxue can basically confirm that Ren Feng must be that Fang Jinghong, and he must have used some special method to change his appearance so that no one can see the flaws.

Later, she learned that the Qinglong Society was going to issue the Qinglong Order on the Rakshasa Festival, so she approached Monk Bu Zheng and summoned this group of people to find Tongling County to destroy the Qinglong Society.

The original main purpose was to meet Fang Jinghong.

That day on the river, the duel between the two of them and Fang Jinghong was stopped by their respective masters. Later, they were both told that they were overestimating their abilities. They were already quite unconvinced. When they heard Zhao Qingxue's invitation, Monk Buzi naturally agreed.

.

But after confirming that Fang Jinghong was Ren Feng, she started to have fun again, especially when she saw Chen Yuhe and Liu Fufeng saying in front of Fang Jinghong that they wanted to kill him and annihilate the Qinglong Society.

She found the unnatural look on "Ren Feng's" face on the side even more interesting, and thought it would be more fun to expose him after a while.

The reason why so many thoughts flashed through Zhao Qingxue's mind was because she regretted what she had accidentally said. It would not be fun to expose this devil so early.

"I have no grudge against the Hou family. It's just that our trip was specifically to go to Tongling County to annihilate the Qinglong Society. Why waste time for such a small clan? Besides, we don't know the situation in the city. The Hou family has been promoted to the mainstream at any rate.

It’s only been half a year, and if something difficult happens, it will take too long!”

Hou Yuxiao naturally didn't know that so many thoughts had flashed through Zhao Qingxue's mind in just a few seconds. He still didn't want the family to start a war, but he refused directly because he was afraid of arousing suspicion, so he had to use the excuse of annihilating the Qinglong Society to persuade everyone to leave.

.

Unexpectedly, Chen Yuhe hit the snake with a stick. It seemed that Hou Yuxiao had tolerated him before, which made him a little swollen. He said in a contemptuous tone: "As the old saying goes, people are old and smart, and ghosts are old. Brother Ren, I think you are getting older."

The more confused!

The Hou family is only a third-rate force after all. It was promoted at the beginning of the year. It is estimated that the warrior disciples do not even have a thousand people. If they really swarm them, Brother Liu and I will be more than enough to stop them.

Even if the head of the family, Hou Yuxiao, is an evildoer, he is only at the Dan level, so any one of us can take him down."

Seeing that Hou Yuxiao's face was gloomy but he had not spoken, Chen Yuhe thought that he was afraid of him, so he said more and more fiercely: "It just so happens that Hou Yuxiao has offended Master Tong, and he is also ranked among the top 300 in the list of minor demon slayers.

The bounty is almost one hundred thousand taels, why not get rid of this beast."

"Yes, I agree with what Brother Chen said!"

Tong Hu's approval did not surprise Hou Yuxiao. After the Zhaoyang Rebellion ended last year, he guessed that Tong Hu would definitely cause trouble for him in the future.

"I agree too."

"I also agree!"

…………

The four masters of the Dan Bao stage were all the leaders of the third-rate forces in Wanyang County. Naturally, they would not refute Tong Hu's face, and they all expressed their approval. Another grandmaster, Liu Fufeng, also expressed his agreement.

"May I ask Fairy Qingxue, what do you think?" Chen Yuhe no longer paid attention to Hou Yuxiao at this time, but turned his eyes to Zhao Qingxue, with a flattering tone in his tone.

Zhao Qingxue is the convener of this operation, and she has the largest background, so everyone naturally values ​​her opinion the most. When Chen Yuhe asked this question, everyone in the room, including Hou Yuxiao, all turned their attention to her.

Glancing at Zhaoyang City from a distance, Zhao Qingxue showed a hint of hesitation in his eyes before he said, "Let's go over and have a look first. Anyway, we are going to rest here all night. Let's first inquire about Hou Yuxiao's reputation. If he is really the

Those heinous people who do evil things and oppress the people, it’s not a bad idea for us to go out of our way to eliminate harm for the people!”

I don't know what other people were thinking. After hearing these words, Hou Yuxiao felt a lot more comfortable.

Although this little Taoist nun is a bit unruly, she is not indifferent to right from wrong.

"How can there be any good people under the rule of the devil? A few years ago, when Black Ape Mohou Tong was alive, his five sons bullied the market and robbed the women of the people. They did not have a good reputation.

God is not wise. Hou Tong, the devil, was finally killed, but Hou Yuxiao got some luck again. Now in Zhaoyang, the people are in dire straits!"

"Jiaozhou is far away from the devil. Fairy Qingxue has little dealings with these devil thieves, so she doesn't know that all of them are murderous, despicable, cunning, and all of them are heinous people.

For example, the Blood Demon Rebellion in Tongling County this time, in the final analysis, it was these demonic thieves who caused the resentment among the people in the territory to boil, which led to the breeding of such powerful demons."

Seeing the upright and awe-inspiring looks of Chen Yuhe and Liu Fufeng, Hou Yuxiao almost suspected that he had really become the evil person they said.

Zhao Qingxue was relatively sober, nodded and said: "You two are right. If Hou Yuxiao is really vicious, I can easily get rid of him. Let's talk about it first in the city!"

Seeing a group of more than ten people stepping onto the official road and walking towards Dongcheng, Hou Yuxiao's expression changed slightly and he followed behind them.

However, as soon as everyone walked outside the East City Gate, their expressions suddenly became a little strange.

Ordinarily, in a small county like Zhaoyang, the city gate should be closed after Xu Shi. In addition, this side is the East City Gate, which is the side facing Xuzhou Wanyang County. The door should be closed at this point.

.

At this time, not only was the East City Gate wide open, but there was also a team of about a hundred people guarding the city gate. Not only that, when they saw them approaching, a burly man came forward to greet them with a smile on his face.

The burly man was almost two meters tall. He looked like an iron tower when he walked from a distance. When he got closer, he discovered that he had a rather delicate face, a four-foot-long sword slung around his waist, and he was smiling.

He clasped his fists at everyone.

"My Majesty, Hou Yucheng, the Marquis of Zhaoyang, had known that distinguished guests from Wanyang County were coming today, so he had already prepared drinks and wine in the city. I hope all distinguished guests will enjoy your visit!"

Everyone, including Zhao Qingxue, looked stunned when they heard Hou Yucheng's words.

Before their minds could react, the team of 100 people behind Hou Yucheng suddenly clasped their fists and shouted in unison.

“I hope all of you distinguished guests will appreciate you!!!”

The horses that the people were riding were all frightened by the shocking shouts and neighed repeatedly. Everyone, including Zhao Qingxue, hurriedly controlled their horses, and their faces instantly darkened.

With their eyesight, they can naturally tell at a glance that these hundreds of people are all warriors at the seventh level or above, and there are three Condensation Stage warriors.

The leader, Hou Yucheng, even had the cultivation level of Jusha period.

This power did not cause them to be frightened. The main reason was that the other party's posture was obviously saying that we already knew what happened to you.

Since the other party knows about it in advance, will there be any other preparations?

Also, how did they know?

This question flashed through everyone's mind, and they immediately began to scan the other people around them. Among them, Zhao Qingxue was the only one who turned his attention to "Ren Feng" at the back.

Hou Yucheng casually glanced around the crowd with his eyes. When he saw Ren Feng at the back, he smiled slightly at the corner of his eyes and continued to speak to the crowd.

"Please rest assured, distinguished guests, that Hou knows that you are here to annihilate the Qinglong Society. To be honest, this Qinglong Society recognizes money but not people. It has a domineering style and acts without scruples. I, the Hou family, also hate it, so

I very much support the righteous deeds of Wanyang Zhengdao.

Please feel free to rest here tonight, and tomorrow Hou will prepare a package to send you to Wanyang County, and promise that I, the Hou family, will not reveal this matter to anyone!"

As soon as he said this, everyone's eyes became even more suspicious, and they all hesitated and did not dare to enter the city.

Seeing this situation, Hou Yucheng showed a trace of magnanimity on his face, and waved his hand directly behind him. The hundreds of Hou Sect warriors led by Xiong Nutao, Zhang Kong, and Su Li all retreated to both sides to give way to everyone.

There is a way out.

"This little Zhaoyang Hou family can create a dragon pool and a tiger's den. Please don't let these evil thieves see the joke. Let's go!"

After all, Liu Fufeng had a master level cultivation, and he was a very brave man. He glanced at Hou Yucheng with disdain, and after speaking to the people behind him, he walked in at the lead. The others looked at each other, and naturally followed him in.

.

"Fairy Qingxue, don't worry. Zhaoyang City's most powerful means is the Rakshasa barrier under the Demon Cult. This Rakshasa barrier is also known as the non-law realm. It has four levels from high to low, namely Yin Yang, Dao Xing, and Lan Ruo.

, settlement.

A mere county town is, at best, a settlement barrier, which can only be used against Gang Qi realm warriors. We have three great masters here, and no matter how many methods the Hou family has prepared, it will be useless!"

Tong Hu obviously wanted to go in. When he saw that Zhao Qingxue seemed a little hesitant, he quickly reminded him softly that he had also been here during the Zhaoyang Rebellion at the end of last year and had seen people who did not practice the Dharma Realm.

Zhao Qingxue's eyes swept over Ren Feng inadvertently. When she heard Tong Hu's reminder, she just shook her head slightly.

She knew about the Rakshasa Barriers in various cities in Yongzhou. To be honest, she didn't pay attention to the small Zhaoyang Barrier at all. The main reason was that she was thinking about why Fang Jinghong wanted their walking

Leaked to Hou Shi.

Fang Jinghong is a member of the Qinglong Society, so he should have nothing to do with the Hou family, and based on what Hou Yucheng said just now, it seems that the Hou family and the Qinglong Society do not have a good relationship.

Could it be that it was not Fang Jinghong who revealed their whereabouts to Hou, but someone else?

Hou Yuxiao was always the last one. When everyone entered the city, he turned around and looked at Hou Yucheng, and quietly used his true energy to transmit messages to him.

"Is the mansion ready?"

Hou Yucheng nodded. He had just cultivated in the Jusha period. His cultivation was much lower than that of Zhao Qingxue and others, so the sound transmission could be easily detected.

Hou Yuxiao sent a message a few days ago and asked him to prepare in advance and summon all the Hou clan warriors, including the Zhaoyang Iron Guards, just to wait for this group of people to come.

Two great masters and eleven alchemy-level warriors are indeed very strong.

But the Hou family is not weak now. Even if you don't count yourself as the grandmaster, just the second and third eldest, all the warriors in the clan, plus the settlement barrier of Zhaoyang City, are not easy to mess with.

Hou Yucheng mounted his horse and followed Zhao Qingxue and others with a hundred people behind him, leading them towards the Hou Mansion along the main street.

"Commander Hou is out so late at night."

"Some guests have arrived at the Hou Mansion. The second master personally came out to greet them. They are distinguished guests!"

"Meet the Commander-in-Chief."

"Greetings to the Second Master!"

…………

It was the end of the Xu period, and the main street was already very sparsely populated. However, when passers-by saw Hou Yucheng, they still greeted him with respectful expressions on their faces.

Zhao Qingxue looked at this scene with a hint of surprise in her eyes. You must know that even in their Jiaozhou state, it is rare for the relationship between the people and the ruler to be so harmonious.

"Hou Yucheng is the second eldest son of the Hou family. He seems to have a pretty good reputation."

Hou Yucheng, who was not far away, smiled slightly, cupped his hands and said, "Thank you Fairy Qingxue for your praise. All of this must be attributed to my eldest brother and fifth brother.

After my eldest brother led the Hou family to take control of Zhaoyang, he not only formed the Zhaoyang Iron Guard to maintain public security in the city, but also exempted the people in the city from many taxes. In addition, any decent child in the city, regardless of their origin, can join my Hou family to practice martial arts.

And after completing the training, it is up to them to decide whether to leave or stay.

My fifth brother, Hou Yuduan, opened the Zhaoyang Private School to teach martial arts children how to read and write. He also adopted all the orphans, treating them as members of my Hou clan and raising them to adulthood!"

"Amitabha, if the benefactor really does this great good thing, it will be a great merit. Under the rule of the Yongzhou Demon Sect, it will be a blessing for the people to have good people like the benefactor. The poor monk must pay homage to him today."

Even Zhao Qingxue couldn't help showing a hint of admiration when she heard Hou Yucheng's words and nodded slightly.

Hou Yuxiao, who was standing behind them, couldn't help but wipe his sweat. He sent a message to Hou Yucheng to beautify it, but he didn't let him say it to this extent.

Although what is said is true, it is not so exaggerated...

"What a nonsense. It's true as you said. Then you, the Demon Sect of the Hou family, are more kind-hearted than me, Xuzhou Zhengdao. You knew we were coming, so you threatened the people in advance to show us the show!

The devil's thieves are indeed very cunning."

Chen Yuhe, who was at the front, sneered slightly when he heard this, instantly cooling down the atmosphere. Liu Fufeng also sneered again and again. The five people, including Tong Hu, couldn't help but look at Hou Yucheng and shook their heads.

Everyone had the same reaction. Even Zhao Qingxue and the six monks Bu Zheng couldn't help but show some doubts when they looked at Hou Yucheng.

"Eighteen generations of your ancestors have been thieves. I'm talking to Fairy Qingxue. What's wrong with you, a stupid dog? I ran to the city gate to pick you up. Did I give you face? Do you really think you are a toy?"

Hou Yucheng, who had been polite just now, suddenly spit fragrance at the mouth of Chen Yuhe when he arrived at the door of the city lord's palace. Everyone had no time to accept his sudden change, and they were stunned for a moment.

Chen Yuhe's face froze completely, a killing intent quickly gathered in his pupils, and the aura of the Grandmaster realm gradually began to emanate from his body.

"I want you to know that speaking without restraint..."

"The iron rule of the Hou family is that anyone who causes chaos in the city will be killed without mercy!"

Before Chen Yuhe could say the last two words "price", he was interrupted by a loud shout.

Along with this sound that resounded throughout Zhaoyang City, a surging wave of energy and blood came from all around, making Chen Yuhe and the other thirteen people look shocked.

Nearly two thousand warriors in black suddenly poured out from all directions, each holding a sword and looking at everyone fiercely. The five hundred people at the front held dark crossbows and aimed directly at Chen Yuhe at the front.

The energy and blood of so many warriors surged together, creating a huge momentum and extremely powerful momentum.

Even with the power of Chen Yuhe's true energy, he was frozen for a moment when faced with those five hundred crossbows.

"If you don't drink a toast, you'll be punished with a drink. I've been polite for so long. Do you really think I'm playing house with you? Do you want to eat and sleep obediently, or fight to the death? It's up to you!"

The second child's temper is still so explosive...

Seeing Hou Yucheng exploded so quickly, Hou Yuxiao couldn't help but show a helpless expression, but it didn't matter at this point. Hou Yuxiao looked up at the crowd, with a dark look in his eyes.

He was also curious about how these people would choose.

Should I continue to slay demons and defend the law, or should I eat and sleep obediently and leave in despair tomorrow morning..._&
