Chapter 13 Greedy

As night fell, patches of dark clouds floated in, covering the bright moon, and the sky and the earth were filled with darkness, which seemed to indicate that something ominous was about to happen.

In the Yang family's discussion hall, gusts of night wind came in from the door, causing the candles in the hall to flicker, making Yang Honglie's triangular eyes more and more gloomy.

At this moment, he is like a fierce tiger that chooses to eat someone, and he can't wait to tear Yang Xuanzhen to pieces.

"Fifth, be safe and don't be impatient."

At this time, a strong and big hand pressed on his shoulder, it was Yang Xiong.

Although Yang Honglie was eager to cut Yang Xuanzhen into pieces, he didn't dare to disobey Yang Xiong's will, so he had to suppress the violence in his heart, and obediently sat back in his seat.

Yang Xiong withdrew his right hand, his eyes fell on the kneeling guard below, and asked: "Where is that evil barrier now, and who was it captured, but Yang Longfei and Yang Zhong?"

Hearing this question, the guard raised his head and said hesitantly: "This...I don't know, I just heard the sound of fighting at the entrance of the mansion when I was patrolling, and then someone shouted, saying He captured the rebellious Yang Xuanzhen..."

"You mean, you didn't witness everything with your own eyes, so you rushed to report to me?"

Yang Xiong frowned deeply, feeling that something was wrong.

Yang Xuanzhen hid in the Universal Chamber of Commerce.

And Yang Longfei and Yang Zhong led a group of guards to block Yang Xuanzhen at the entrance of the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce.

Then why was Yang Xuanzhen captured at the entrance of his mansion?

So, it doesn't fit...

Da da da…

At this moment, a burst of chaotic footsteps suddenly sounded outside, interrupting Yang Xiong's thoughts.

"Report to Patriarch, Yang Xuanzhen brought the family's rebellion."

A respectful voice sounded from outside the hall.

Immediately afterwards, two tall guards, one on the left and the other on the right, escorted a young man in and it was Yang Xuanzhen.

At this time, Yang Xuanzhen, with disheveled hair, torn clothes, and bloodstains all over his body, looked in a panic.

Half a quarter of an hour ago, he hurried back to his family from the Universal Chamber of Commerce to change his clothes, and after a dangerous battle, he was captured by two guards guarding the gate.

Then it was brought here.

Of course, this was all on purpose.

Otherwise, with the strength of the two guards, how could they hold him.

"Yang Xuanzhen!"

Yang Xiong raised his head suddenly, a terrifying light erupted in his eyes, almost condensed into substance.

And Yang Honglie even stood up directly, his fists creaking, as if he was going to kill him at any moment.

"Very good, you have made a great contribution, and you will be rewarded later!" Yang Xiong took a deep breath, waved his sleeves and ordered: "You retreat for now, and guard the door twenty feet away from the meeting hall. No one is allowed to approach. shoot or kill."

The longing Yang Xuanzhen was right in front of him, and became a prisoner. At this moment, Yang Xiong put his heart in his stomach completely.

As for the question just now, he has already forgotten about it. The only thing he has to do now is to extract Yang Tao's secret from the other party.

"Yes, thank you Patriarch!"

Excitement flickered on the faces of the several guards, and they left quickly, closing the door of the meeting hall tightly.

Since then, only Yang Xiong, Yang Honglie, and Yang Xuanzhen were left in the hall.

Yang Xuanzhen stood alone below, with his head lowered, making it difficult for people to see the expression on his face.

However, from his trembling arms and clenched fists, it can be seen that he is not at peace now.

At this time, Yang Honglie took a step forward, walked towards Yang Xuanzhen, and said word by word: "Little beast, I didn't expect that you have come to this step after all, haha..."

He raised his head and roared, his smile was full of ridicule and joy.

Suddenly, the wild laughter stopped, and he slapped Yang Xuanzhen, wanting to teach him a lesson first.

But at this time Yang Xuanzhen suddenly raised his head and looked at him, and said stubbornly in his voice: "Yang Honglie, I got a treasure from that stone room and hid it in a hidden place. If you dare to touch me, you will definitely regret it." and."

"Ok?"

Yang Honglie's movements froze, and he said disdainfully: "Nie Zhan, you dare to speak hard when you are about to die. Believe it or not, I have a hundred ways to pry your mouth open?"

While speaking, he still wanted to fight.

"stop."

At this time, Yang Xiong, who had been silent all this time, spoke. He stared at Yang Xuanzhen and said lightly:
"Nephew, this is the end of the matter, let's keep it secret, what kind of treasure did you get, and where did you hide it?"

"Ha ha."

Yang Xuanzhen sneered: "Yang Xiong, thanks to the fact that you are still the head of the clan, yet you are so greedy, it is really embarrassing."

Immediately afterwards, he changed his subject and said expressionlessly: "If you let me go, I will hand over the treasure. If I hand over the treasure now, I'm afraid I will die."

As soon as these words came out, Yang Xiong didn't say anything immediately, his face was a little cloudy, as if he was considering the stakes.

After a long time, he showed a gentle smile: "Nephew, don't worry too much. I am your father's elder brother, your dear uncle. We are a family. I watched you grow up. How could uncle kill you?" .”

These words seemed to hit Yang Xuanzhen's weakness, making his breathing suddenly short: "Yang Xiong, who is your family?"

"After my father's death, you never looked at me in the right eyes again. If you don't pay attention to me, what kind of family are you talking about?"

When he spoke, many complex emotions appeared on his face, including anger, sadness, despair, bitterness... making the whole face distorted.

"You bastard, you dare to talk to the Patriarch like that, you really don't know how to live or die, I advise you to hand over the treasure quickly, otherwise you will be subjected to the cruelest punishment in the world, to see how hard your bones are."

Yang Honglie scolded angrily, he had already lost his patience, strode forward, and stretched out his big hand like a cattail fan to grab Yang Xuanzhen's neck.

"Ugh…"

Suddenly, a sigh slowly spit out from Yang Xiong's mouth, and he waved his hand to stop Yang Honglie again, reprimanded:
"Old Five, Xuanzhen is still a child and doesn't know the rules. Don't frighten him. Speak slowly when you have something to say, don't be rough."

"Humph."

Yang Honglie retreated back to the original place, but stared at Yang Xuanzhen, still feeling a little annoyed.

"Nephew, uncle has indeed owed you a lot over the years. Uncle made a mistake, but now there is an opportunity to make up for it. I hope you don't refuse, so that I can fulfill my responsibility as an uncle."

Yang Xiong's eyes were slightly red, like an adult apologizing to his own child who did something wrong, he looked extremely sincere, even humble.

Yang Xuanzhen's body shook, his lips squirmed several times, and then he said with difficulty: "What... what opportunity..."

Still too young indeed.

Seeing the other party's appearance, Yang Xiong's eyes flashed a trace of cunning, and he said persuasively:
"Nephew, as long as you tell Uncle where the treasure is hidden, Uncle will not only not harm you, but will also do his best to help you practice and train you as the next Patriarch, how about it?"

After hearing these words, Yang Xuanzhen fell into silence, and after a long while he was not sure: "Uncle, if you really don't kill me, will you help me become the next Patriarch?"

Uncle!

This was the first time that Yang Xuanzhen called Yang Xiong like this. Although his tone was unfamiliar, the emotion revealed in it was enough to show that his heart had been shaken.

Yang Xiong was overjoyed, nodded quickly and said: "That's natural, I, Yang Xiong, have acted openly and aboveboard all my life, and I have never broken my promise and lost weight."

But Yang Xuanzhen was like a donkey who wouldn't turn back if he didn't hit the south wall, he said stubbornly: "In this case, please make an oath, uncle, otherwise, I would rather die than tell you the whereabouts of the treasure."

"what…"

Hearing this request, the smile on Yang Xiong's face froze immediately, and the corner of his mouth twitched violently.

This world is different from the Blue Star where Yang Xuanzhen lived in his previous life.

It is possible for a vow to be fulfilled.

Especially for practitioners, once they renege on their oaths, their minds will be disturbed, and they will often encounter various disasters during their cultivation.

Human calamity, heaven calamity, heart calamity...all exist.

Generally speaking, very few people would risk taking a swear if it is not necessary.

But Yang Xuanzhen made an oath.

And looking at his demeanor, he was extremely decisive.

This made Yang Xiong very angry, and murderous intent was already revealed in his eyes.
