Defying the Martial Way to Burn the Heavens
Chapter 1710 Brewing Storm
As Huaxing's voice fell, Huasu and the three leaders of the Gui family not far away all laughed.
Although their laughter was not unbridled due to their status, the mockery in it was very obvious.
Su Jian's face changed slightly, but he soon returned to normal. He smiled lightly like Huaxing and said, "I dare not teach you, let alone teach the second-in-command of the Five Tigers of Painters. I just put forward some ideas and let everyone discuss them together."
As Su Jian spoke, the laughter of the people from the Gui and Hua families gradually became smaller. It can be seen that the Gui family is paying attention to the changes in Huaxing's expression at this time.
Su Jian's words just now seemed to be a compliment, but in fact they were secretly mocking Huaxing. He was originally one of the Five Tigers of Painters. As a result, after his family suffered a devastating blow, he won over the remnants of the Painters here and sat on the position of the head of the Painters family.
It was a sarcastic remark, but it made Huaxing unable to get angry. After all, he was originally one of the Five Tigers of Painters, and there was nothing wrong with the other party's words.
"Consider? How can you discuss? With your lip service, you want us to fight the beast. You know the beast's ability, I know, and everyone knows, how much loss will be incurred if we go out of the city to fight it. Have you considered it seriously?"
"If we want to deal with the beast, we will inevitably have to sacrifice. But if we can eliminate the beasts around Kuo City, it will be a hundred benefits to all of us." Seeing that Huaxing finally had the intention to negotiate, Su Jian also happily expressed his thoughts.
With a contemptuous smile, Huaxing said bluntly: "You think it is a hundred benefits and no harm, but I see that you have a hundred benefits, but we have a hundred harms.
The current Kuocheng is like an isolated island, but in my opinion it is a safe isolated island, at least the isolated island in front of us makes us feel safe."
While speaking, Huaxing casually turned his head to look at Guiyun of the Gui family. The two exchanged glances and nodded slightly. Huaxing then continued: "You two families can afford to consume with the beasts, but our two families can't stand such a toss.
Besides, when we are outside the city, who knows if your Su family has other calculations, maybe you have reached a tacit understanding with the beasts, just to trick us out of the city, and then work together to eliminate us."
Listening to Huaxing's words, Su Jian, Wang Xiao and others couldn't help but frown, and they could hear that the initial words were indeed Huaxing's concerns. After all, the Su and Wang families still have the support of the family behind them. Although the family has no time to worry about this for the time being, the reintegrated Guihua and Guihua families don't have much capital.
The following words are of course irrational, and even Huaxing himself understands that this accusation is simply slander. This may seem a bit dirty, but in fact such means are indispensable to the Guihua and Guihua families.
On the surface, there are only four forces in Kuocheng, "Guihua Suwang", but there are other small forces and small families in Kuocheng, and there are also many large chambers of commerce in Kuocheng.
These scattered small forces are not worth mentioning if they are taken out alone, but when these forces are gathered together, even the leaders of the four families dare not ignore them.
Huaxing is naturally unwilling to cooperate with the Su family, but he cannot point out the reason. In the end, those small forces that are free from the struggle will move closer to the Suwang and Suwang families.
Therefore, he deliberately made such an excuse, suspecting that the Suwang and Suwang families had joined forces with the fierce beasts to plot against himself and the Gui family. In this way, those small forces can only continue to wait and see, and the struggle between everyone has returned to the original point of the four families' confrontation.
The proposal of the four families joining forces would be ridiculous to those who know the inside story, but in fact, Su Jian's goal was to make the Guihua and Guihua families reject it, and then he would use it to win over those small forces. But in the end, Huaxing saw through it, so there was really no need to talk about it.
"I don't deny the concerns of the head of Huaxing family just now. In comparison, our Su family and Wang family will get more and more support from the head of the family in the future. It's okay for you to have concerns and not want to join forces.
But if you suspect that we have joined forces with the fierce beast, this reason is a bit naive. I think no one will believe it if you say it out."
Su Jian just finished speaking, but Hua Su curled his lips coldly, and the fat on his face trembled. He said in a cold voice: "It's not up to you to say whether you believe it or not. Besides, you attacked us first and sneaked into my Huahua family to do something wrong. The action failed and lost soldiers and generals. One plan failed and another plan came. What else can't you do?"
Hua Su's words seemed unreasonable, but they just caught the sore spot of the Su and Wang families. They did take the initiative to attack the painter, but the incident was leaked in advance, and they were ambushed by the two families of Guihua. Now the painter took advantage of this incident, and even Su Jian was speechless for a while.
Wang Xiao on the side suddenly spoke up and said directly: "If everyone works together to eliminate the beast, then after this incident, our Wang family and Su family are willing to withdraw from Kuocheng, at least leave Kuocheng to your two families."
With Wang Xiao's identity, he can certainly make this promise on behalf of the Wang family, but he cannot represent the Su family. So after Wang Xiao finished speaking, he immediately turned his eyes to Su Jian.
Seeing Wang Xiao looking at him, Su Jian said without hesitation: "My Su family is also willing to make this promise. As long as everyone works together to eliminate the beast, my Su family is willing to withdraw from Kuocheng with the Wang family and leave this place completely to your two families."
When Wang Xiao spoke before, the two families of Guihua showed their intention, and after Su Jian's voice fell, Guiyun, the leader of Guihua, looked at Huaxing with excitement.
The fat on Hua Su's face was also jumping up and down, and he looked at Hua Xing with excitement. For their two families, it is undoubtedly the best to have a city to develop quietly at the moment, especially without being suppressed by the other two families.
However, after the initial surprise, Hua Xing's expression gradually became gloomy. When Gui Yun and Hua Su looked at him, he shook his head and said coldly: "It's really a good plan. After we fight to the death to get rid of the beast, even if you are willing to leave as promised, but the other Yao family, Yao family, or even the people of the Kang family come, we still have to get out of Kuo City obediently."
Hearing Hua Xing's words, the face of the leader of the Gui family and Hua Su suddenly changed, and then looked at Wang Xiao and Su Jian with resentment, full of hostility.
As Hua Xing said, the promise is limited to the Su Wang family. When other super families enter Kuo City, the Gui Hua family will still have to leave in disgrace.
At this point in the conversation, Hua Su and the three leaders of the Gui family had actually understood a truth. If they wanted to occupy Kuo City, there must be a prerequisite, and that prerequisite is the ferocious beast.
If the ferocious beast retreated, even if they had already controlled Kuo City, it would only be temporary. In fact, Hua Su and others pretended to be shocked and angry on the surface, but a guess had already emerged in their hearts that Hua Xing in front of them seemed to have the intention to join forces with the ferocious beast.
Just like after the previous modification of the formation, the atmosphere in the entire square fell into a dead silence again. The difference was that there was more hostility in the eyes between the two sides than before.
Before the conversation, many people still had a fluke in their hearts, and even had some intention of Su Jian and Wang Xiao's proposal. But now these people are like eating a weight, and everyone knows that there will be a battle between them that is inevitable.
"Let's go, the city defense formation has been repaired, and everyone will go their separate ways in the future."
It seems that from the very beginning, Hua Xing had already thought of this result, so from the beginning to the end of the negotiation, he maintained a strong hostility and fighting spirit. Now that he was leaving, his words were more like a declaration of war.
Su Jian and Wang Xiao exchanged a glance, and then said: "Since the decision has been made, I don't need to say much. Although we go our separate ways, we should meet again soon in this small city."
"We will treat you well by then." Hua Xing held his head high and released his spiritual energy without reservation at this moment.
Others followed suit, releasing their spiritual energy one by one, and suddenly a huge spiritual energy wave was released.
Almost at the same time, Su Jian also burst out his spiritual energy and shouted in a deep voice: "The same as each other!"
Su Ming and Su Qiang beside him, as well as the two leaders of the Wang family, also released their spiritual energy. On the periphery of this stone forest square, the surging spiritual energy raged like a tsunami for a while.
However, both sides were relatively restrained at this time, and no one took action easily. The two sides just confronted each other in this way.
At a certain moment, the people on both sides almost stood up at the same time, and then retreated facing each other in the air. Without saying a word or making any extra movements, only cold eyes passed silently in the air. When they looked away, everyone turned around and flew away.
Whether it was the Suwang family or the Guihua family, the tension between them had reached such a point, but everyone still maintained a tacit understanding, that is, not to touch the city defense formation.
First, the city defense formation was not presided over by anyone, but was in a state of self-operation. Fighting around the city defense formation would only cause the city defense formation to counterattack and eventually find the attack of the city defense formation.
In addition, whether it was the Suwang family or the Guihua family, everyone hoped to preserve the city defense formation. For the Suwang family, the city defense formation was a barrier, an important barrier to resist the ferocious beasts in the current chaotic situation.
For the Guihua family, the city defense formation was equally important. Even if they wanted to join forces with the ferocious beasts, they still needed the city defense formation as a trump card, otherwise they would not even be qualified to bargain with the ferocious beasts.
After half a night, the four strong men gathered their strength to repair the city defense formation of Kuo City. However, under this city defense formation, a bigger storm was brewing secretly, and almost no one in Kuo City knew about the old man and the young man who were brewing the storm.
