Evil Emperor Zun

Chapter 550 The Difficulty of the Xiling Family

At this time, the atmosphere of Xiling's family was very solemn.This is not due to the majesty forged by the always strict rules, but a kind of heaviness before the coming of the war.

An old man in purple robes lived above the main seat. He picked up the teacup at the corner of the table and took a sip, rubbing the palm of his hand on the lion head carved in front of the throne. The young and old of the Xiling family.

"Patriarch, I sent someone to summon you to hand over the seal of the firm, as well as the house deed and land deed, and move out of the ancestral house. How are you thinking now? But I remind you in advance that no matter how you choose, the final result all the same."

At this time, Xilingjie was being supported by Xiling Jiangkun and an elder in charge.In just a few months, many gray hairs were added to his temples.The patriarch's arrogance has long since disappeared, leaving only a bit of innate arrogance.Looking at the old man who initiated the cannibalism in front of him, his face was full of grief.

"Xilingyu, you have already occupied many business houses of my clan one after another, and all the branches have been instigated by you, and they have also turned against each other. We have been cornered by you. Are you still not satisfied? You are so perverse, in the future Under the Nine Springs, what face do you have to meet your ancestors?!"

The purple-robed old man Xi Lingyun sneered, and said softly: "Of course I am not satisfied. Unless I am really in charge of the entire Xiling family, let me see your father and son rolling on the street like dogs to beg for food, maybe I will A little more satisfied."

"What on earth do you want!!" Xi Lingjie trembled with hatred.

"What do I want?" Xi Linglong's expression suddenly became extremely terrifying, and he strode down from the throne and approached Xi Lingjie directly, "I just want you to give me back my little Bei! If you You can do it, it's easy to say! But can you do it? Can you?"

He asked several questions, then sneered heavily, and answered by himself: "—You can't! We all know that people cannot be resurrected after death. Xiaobei is gone, and he can never come back. So my hatred , I can only vent it on you guys!"

Xilingjie let out a long sigh. Although he had guessed that Xilingbei's death was the trigger, hearing it with his own ears still made him feel a strong sense of absurdity.

"I'm also very sorry about nephew Bei, but he entered the desperate situation of Liuyu, and his life and death are at the mercy of his fate. In order to make this contribution, he accepted the task without any complaints. How can you take all the responsibilities now? Push it on me? After he passed away, I made an exception and held a grand funeral for him, isn't that enough to make up for you?"

Xi Lingyun gave a strange smile: "Ha, funeral, I, Xiaobei, have devoted my whole life to the clan. Is his life worth just a funeral? For so many years, Xiaobei has been working from dawn to dusk, how much he has done for the clan, anyone with eyes You can see it all! If there is no Xiaobei, the Xiling family would have been wiped out by this trash!" Speaking of this, he suddenly raised a finger and pointed at the tip of Xiling Jiangkun's nose angrily.

"But why, it is this trash who sits calmly on the young master's seat now! You have raised him so much that he can't carry it on his shoulders or pick it up with his hands, and I, Xiaobei, will be sent by you to carry out the most dangerous mission, causing him to die now. The soul was swallowed by others, and even the body was taken by others! Why didn't this trash die, what is the reason for all this?"

When Xiling Jiangkun heard this, he finally couldn't bear it anymore, and regardless of his father's stop, he resolutely stepped forward and stood opposite Xilinglong.

"I know, your grandson is dead, but the young master of the Zong family is still alive, so you don't like it anyway. There is a grievance and a debtor. I am willing to bear all this for the family. You can kill me right here , Xilingbei and I live for one life! But from now on, you can no longer embarrass my clan or my father!"

"Jiang Kun..." Xi Lingjie tugged on his sleeve anxiously.It was the first time for his son to be so bloody, but Xi Linglong had planned everything, and the matter in front of him was not something he could solve by sacrificing himself...

Xiling looked sideways at Xiling Jiangkun, who was trembling with fear but still pretending to be calm. The disdain on his face became more and more intense, as if what he was looking at was just a pile of rubbish.

"Trash, you don't deserve it! You can't afford Xiaobei's life with your humble life. If you weren't from a clan, you wouldn't even be worthy of lifting Xiaobei's shoes!"

Speaking of this, Xi Linglong turned around slowly, walked a few steps in the hall, faced the portrait of the ancestor hanging high, and opened his arms with a grinning grin.

"It will be all right in the future. There will be no difference between the clan and the clan. My Xiaobei's memorial tablet can be placed in the ancestral hall and enjoyed forever. And I, Chen'er, am the real and only young master of the Xiling family! "

"Xi Lingyun, you are too deceitful!" Xi Lingjie was furious.Seeing his own son being humiliated, now Xilinglong doesn't have the slightest respect for his ancestors, it finally made him intolerable.With a wave of his hand, a large number of guards of the Zong family rushed out from all over the place, each holding their swords, and surrounded Xi Linglong.

Xi Linglong still had that confident smile on his face, he ignored the swords and swords pressing towards his eyes, but he didn't even move his body.

Just when the overwhelming long knives were about to slash at him, a series of swift and swift sword lights swished and flashed, and none of the guards in the encirclement was spared. A large bloody flower exploded on his chest and flew backwards in all directions.There were several bang bang bang bangs, and there was already a pile of corpses in the hall.

Outside the door, there was a blood-clothed youth standing at this moment. His face was cold and his eyes were even colder. It was a bloodthirsty ferocity cultivated through countless killings.Killing dozens of people with a flick of a finger will never have a greater impact on him than sweeping dust all over the place.

Walking slowly into the long hall, the hem of the clothes was dragged among the dead bodies everywhere, the young man's face was always as cold and hard as usual.The absolute cold-bloodedness also added a bit of cruelty to his temperament.

On his shoulders, stood two blood-red skulls, with empty eyes, as if waiting for the nourishment of blood at any time.Even if you see it in daytime, there is a kind of spooky aura, which is very evil.

Amidst the shock in the room, only Xi Linglong smiled freely, and he smiled even more proudly.Gently stroking his long gray beard, his tone was like a sigh or a sarcasm.

"Have you thought about it clearly, are you really going to do something here? At that time, my little friend, I won't mind killing you all at all."

Xi Lingjie stared blankly at the young man's attire, especially the bloody skull on his shoulder for a long time, his pupils suddenly shrank to the size of a pinprick, and he squeezed out three words from his teeth: "Blood, skull, skull!"

"That's how it is... No wonder those branch families will easily fall for you, no wonder you can occupy several of my business houses without hindrance... So it is, my Xiling family is dead..."

Xi Linglong admired Xi Lingjie's desperate expression, and a trace of cruel pleasure quickly passed over his face.He smiled and said: "Since you are already clear about the situation, you should also know what is the right way to do it. I will give you another day to think about it. I will come back at noon tomorrow and wait for your final reply." Looking around in the hall, there is a deliberately disguised nostalgia in his eyes, "Perhaps by that time, the Xiling clan will be gone—"

As Xilinglong and the boy "Blood Skull" left, Xilingjie's forceful momentum finally retreated completely, and he beat his chest heavily with both hands: "Heaven's death for my Xiling family! Heaven's death for my Xiling family!" He staggered several times , was supported by everyone and sat down in the chair.

After Xiling Jiangkun ran forward, he was busy serving tea for his father to wipe off his sweat.Looking at the immature son in front of him, Xi Lingjie felt a deep sense of powerlessness rising from his heart.

"Jiang Kun, before you didn't seek to make progress. I always thought that you were still young, so I didn't force you too much. No matter how self-willed you are, the Xiling family can cover you. Even if you just want to be a prodigal, my Xiling family also has it." Enough family property, let you lose... But now, the Xiling family is lost again, and the huge foundation is going down like a mountain, even if my father and son want to live in peace and stability, I am afraid they will not be able to do so!"

For Xiling Jiangkun, who lived a comfortable life since he was a child, and his only worry was how to spend his money, the crisis of family destruction in front of him was indeed the first catastrophe he experienced in his life.At this time, he was already at a loss, and could only weep in vain over and over again: "If I can survive this disaster, I will work hard to make progress!" But Xi Lingjie's face was still ashen as a dry well.

"Patriarch, you have to cheer up!" Another middle-aged man on the side persuaded earnestly.He is the patriarch Xilingtan of the No. [-] branch family, and he is now the only branch faction that is still loyal to the clan and has not turned against Xilingyu.

"We have sent a message to the Gongsun family before. The chief of the Gongsun family is anxious for justice and will never leave our Xiling family alone!"

Xilingjie closed his eyes, opened them again, and sighed softly: "Now we can only count on Brother Gongsun to turn the tide. It's just... difficult..."

……

In front of the border of Yixi Kingdom, a figure quietly appeared.After looking around, he merged into the space again, and no one on both sides of the road noticed it.

What a joke... Ye Shuo, who was speeding through the space channel, sighed quietly.

Unexpectedly, he returned to Yixi Kingdom first.Of course he misses the country he grew up in, but a few months ago he fell out with the royal family and had to leave the country in public. This also made the pure homesickness in his heart uncontrollably clouded .

When he came back here again, he didn't know whether he had been listed as a wanted by the rebellious party, whether the guards stationed would fight immediately when they saw him; whether the passing people would still regard him as the one with six The aliens colluded with Yu Mojun to report to the government.

At this moment, Ye Shuo's mood was complicated, but he still chose to take the risk and come back.Just because Xiling Jiangkun's family is being plotted by villains.

These friends of his, when there are good things they don't think of him, but when there are bad things they scramble to drag him into the water. They really are a group of bad friends... Ye Shuo shook his head, but they are also his most important bad friends.

The Xiling family is located in the most luxurious area of ​​the capital. After several hours, Ye Shuo was already standing outside the tall courtyard wall.Groups of guards with long knives on their waists and spears in their hands lined up on both sides, scanning the passing crowd, their eyes full of vigilance.

When I came here before, there was no such a big battle in front of the mansion, it really is an extraordinary period, is it all soldiers?
After continuing to observe for a while, Ye Shuo gradually noticed the strangeness.These people are not guarding the Xiling House, but they should have sealed the entire house under the order of the foreign master.Whether outsiders want to approach or people in the courtyard want to leave, they will be strongly blocked.

Although this group of guards are not experts, it is easy for Ye Shuo to deal with them, but the head of the rebellious branch family should have already set his eyeliner on this area. If there is any conflict, he will be alarmed at the first time. The person is still in the compound, in case something happens, he will not be able to rescue him in time.

After thinking for a moment, Ye Shuo turned his attention to the back door.When Jiang Kunqiang of Xiling brought him here as a guest, he sneaked in through the back door with him.Although it should be heavily guarded now, he still remembered that there was a low wall covered by dense trees, and if he climbed over there, he should be able to avoid the eyes and ears of the patrolling guards...

……

"Master, the patriarch Gongsun has arrived." A servant came to announce.

"Brother Gongsun is really loyal... Hurry up! Hurry up!" Xi Lingjie, who was dying, seemed to have been injected with a booster, struggling to stand up, and walked all the way to the door.

Gongsun Yi was dressed in a strong outfit, and walked in with great strides.Behind him were two young men and women, Gongsun Zhiqi and Jia Luo.

On the one hand, there are greetings from the parents, and on the other hand, there is excitement from the younger generation.Gongsun Zhiqi tightly held Xiling Jiangkun's hand: "Don't worry, it will be fine!"

Xiling Jiangkun nodded gratefully, and exchanged a glance with Jia Luo. The determination in their eyes had replaced thousands of words.These friends in the college, I really do not cross each other, the friendship in the green age will also be a lifetime of sincere friendship!
"Brother Gongsun...how did you get in? Did those watchdogs outside make things difficult for you?" On the other side, Xi Lingjie's eyes and eyebrows were still full of worry, "and patriarch Ouye, he... didn't Come with you? Was it delayed by something? "

"Those slaves, how dare they stop me?" Gongsun Yi waved his hand boldly.It's just that when he mentioned Patriarch Ouye, he felt a little unnatural.

He can still clearly remember how his old friend responded when he sent a message to tell the truth about the difficulties of the Xiling family and invited the Ouye family to help.

"If today was your Gongsun brother's business, I would definitely help you with all my heart! But since it's his Xilingjie's family business, I'm sorry I can't do anything. Besides, I heard that the Xueyuntang is also involved in it... In your opinion In terms of face, I don't help each other at most."

When Gongsun Yi was still thinking about how to save some face for Patriarch Ouye in a more tactful way, Xi Lingjie had already guessed the general idea just by looking at his troubled face, and shook his head with a wry smile: "Hey, not all of them are afraid of blood skeletons. Now that Ouyang's family and Xiahou's family have also fallen, Xilinglong's action has completely cut off our retreat!"

Gongsun Yi sighed: "The Xilingyun is just a wolf that is not familiar with it. But this time I am most distressed by Patriarch Ouye. He is my old friend for many years. I ask myself enough to know him, how could I expect... ...When things come to an end, he is actually a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death!"

Gongsun Zhiqi said bitterly: "Xiling Jiangkun, you don't have to worry. Anyway, my father and I will stay here. I don't believe he dares to swallow our Gongsun family too!"

At this time, Jia Luo, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said: "Uncle, you'd better mobilize your troops as soon as possible to prepare for returning to defense at any time. I think...they really plan to swallow up the Gongsun family as well."

Gongsun Zhiqi was furious, raised her hand and slapped the square table bitterly: "He dares!"

Almost as soon as the few people finished speaking, Gongsun Yi's jade slip lit up.After skimming through the latest message, he looked at the eyes of everyone, revealing a real fear.

"Just received the news... There are elders in the family who have caused a mutiny!"
