Ninth Demon Lord

Chapter 259 Don't let the Qiu family get involved with Qiu Tan
Qiu Tan also got up and went behind his father, waiting for his father to speak.

After a while, Qiu Zhongwen still didn't answer, but asked instead: "What do you want to do?"

Qiu Tan frowned: "If something happens to Sixth and Seventh Uncles, our Qiu family will naturally not let Feng Ting go."

Qiu Zhongwen didn't speak or move, he was already looking at the sky outside the window.After waiting for a while, he said: "Now, you are the hope of the Qiu family, and you must never have another accident."

When Qiu Tan heard this, he said confidently: "Father, I may break through at any time, so I should have some confidence in dealing with Feng Ting."

"Your sixth uncle is a middle-level Zifu mansion, and your seventh uncle is a high-level Zifu mansion. They are all gone." Qiu Zhongwen said silently.

"Father, I will fight Feng Ting openly and aboveboard." Qiu Tan said.

Qiu Wenwen turned to look at his son and said, "What about after the beating?"

"Kill him, and I will protect the face of the Qiu family." Qiu Tan said.

"What if you die?" Qiu Zhongwen looked at his son and asked.

Qiu Tan said solemnly: "Father, I am sure to kill Feng Ting."

Qiu Zhongwen felt helpless, frowned, and said, "Let me tell you again, something must have happened to both your sixth uncle and your seventh uncle."

"They must have fallen into Feng Ting's trick." Qiu Tan explained.

"No matter how they got into trouble, if they got into trouble, this is Feng Ting's ability. How can you guarantee that you won't fall into Feng Ting's tricks?" Qiu Zhongwen's tone was a little reprimanded.

Qiu Tan said with a serious expression: "Even if I die, it doesn't matter, at least I haven't lost face to the Qiu family."

Qiu Wenwen looked at his son, shook his head helplessly, and said, "Qiu Tan, although you are very mature and talented. But you don't seem to understand what is the face of the Qiu family."

When Qiu Tan heard this, he immediately said, "Father, please tell me."

Qiu Zhongwen paused for a while, and said, "If the Qiu family is in decline, or even disappears, will the Qiu family still have face?"

"Of course not." Qiu Tan seemed to understand.

Qiu Zhongwen said solemnly: "The Qiu family has always existed, and this is the biggest face of the Qiu family."

"Yes."

These words were not spoken by Qiu Tan, but an old voice from outside the courtyard.

Both Qiu Tan and Qiu Zhongwen's father and son's expressions froze. They recognized the voice of the old man Qiu Pan, and immediately walked out of the study and into the yard.

The courtyard door was already opened, and a tall old man walked in.The old man had gray hair and a stern face. He was somewhat similar to Qiu Zhongxun, but he had nothing in common with the quiet Qiu Zhongxun.

"See you, old man."

"See Grandpa."

Both Qiu Zhongwen and Qiu Tan immediately bowed to salute Qiu Pan.

"Don't be too polite."

Qiu Pan looked at Qiu Zhongwen and Qiu Tan, his cold eyes were so deep and resolute that people dare not look directly at them.

Qiu Zhongwen and Qiu Tan looked up at Qiu Pan.

"Second brother, what you said makes sense. If the Qiu family declines or disappears, then the Qiu family's face will no longer be lost." Qiu Pan said solemnly.

"Father, I just don't know what to do." Qiu Zhongwen said humbly.

Qiu Pan cast his eyes on Qiu Tan, and said, "Qiu Tan, you are the future of the Qiu family, so nothing can happen to you."

"Grandpa, but..."

"Feng Ting has me and your father to deal with it." Qiu Pan interrupted Qiu Tan.

"Grandpa, Feng Ting is just a junior, there is no need for Grandpa to do anything." Qiu Tan said immediately.

Qiu Pan's expression darkened, and he said, "Although Feng Ting is a junior, Xun Hanchuan is not."

When Qiu Zhongwen and Qiu Tan heard this, they both understood that the old man also thought that Xun Hanchuan was behind the scenes.But in fact, both of them respected Xun Hanchuan's character, but they didn't think that Xun Hanchuan would personally kill Qiu Zhongxun and Qiu Zhongyi.

Qiu Pan continued to say with a sullen face: "Qiu Tan, from today onwards, you only need to study with peace of mind, and don't worry about anything else."

Qiu Tan hurriedly said: "Grandpa, before Feng Ting left, I had already challenged him, but he left quietly, so this competition has never been fought."

"Then there is no need to fight forever." Qiu Pan said.

"Yes, Grandpa." Qiu Tan didn't dare to say anything more.

Qiu Pan looked at Qiu Tan, his eyes softened suddenly, and he said, "Qiu Tan, the Qiu family is now facing a critical moment of life and death. You have to be separated from the rest of the Qiu family."

"Grandpa, I don't understand." Qiu Tan said eagerly.

"I can't let the current Qiu family implicate you."

"Grandpa, grandson really doesn't understand." Qiu Tan was a little confused.

Qiu Pan did not answer Qiu Tan's doubts, but looked at Qiu Zhongwen and asked, "Second brother, you are a calm person, I think you should have seen something earlier?"

Hearing this, Qiu Zhongwen's expression was solemn, and he said in a low voice, "Master, I do see some danger."

"Say!" Qiu Pan said coldly.

Qiu Zhongwen's face became more serious, he hesitated a little, and said, "I think Chifu asked us to help find the lost things, and there seems to be another reason."

"Say!" Qiu Pan's tone became more dignified.

Qiu Zhongwen lowered his head and continued: "I heard that the inner alchemy was thrown by the Chifu, but there are not many people who know about this inner alchemy, including the five major families of our Tianshu City. The Chifu may suspect that it is us. One of the five major families took the inner alchemy, Chifu asked our five major families to help find it, maybe it is reminding our five major families that I have already suspected you. If you take the inner alchemy, hand it over quickly."

"Snapped."

Qiu Pan raised his hand suddenly, and slapped Qiu Wenwen on the face, sending Qiu Wenwen flying.Fortunately, Qiu Pan didn't want to kill anyone, so Qiu Zhongwen's face was red and swollen, and no bones were hurt.After he landed, he still lowered his head.

When Qiu Tan saw this scene, he was a little dazed.He never thought that grandpa would hit his father. For a moment, she didn't know what to say.

Qiu Pan looked at Qiu Zhongwen coldly, and said angrily, "Since you know this, why didn't you tell Lao Liu and Lao Qi?"

Qiu Wenwen lowered his head and replied: "Father, I only started investigating after Lao Liu and Lao Qi left, and went to Chi Mansion. Only then did I find out that Pi Zhan, the chief steward of Chi Mansion, was missing, and it was rumored that he stole Take that inner alchemy."

Qiu Pan's complexion became more and more serious: "Do you know the consequences of being suspected by the Chifu?"

"I know." Qiu Wenwen still lowered his head.

At this moment, Qiu Tan understood why his grandfather said that he could not be affected by the Qiu family at this moment. He was suspected by the Chifu, and no matter what the result was, he would be abandoned by the Chifu.In the eastern sea area, being abandoned by Chifu is almost equivalent to being pushed into hell.

Qiu Pan said coldly: "Lao Liu and Lao Qi are good at everything, but they are too smart and too confident."

Qiu Wenwen continued to lower his head, he couldn't say anything, and he couldn't say anything.It was the old man who chose to let the sixth and seventh sons be in charge of the Qiu family. What can he say.

"Hey!"

Qiu Pan sighed secretly, looked at Qiu Wenwen and said, "I can't blame you."

"Father, as an elder brother, I failed to remind my brothers at the most critical moment. This is my fault." Qiu Zhongwen said.

"Okay, something that shouldn't have happened has happened, and now it's time for us to do something for the Qiu family." Qiu Pan's face turned stern in an instant.

Qiu Wenwen raised his head at this moment, looked at his father, and asked, "Old man, what should we do?"

Qiu Pan looked at his son and grandson and said, "Qiu Tan is the future of the Qiu family, and you and I are the present of the Qiu family. Now that someone in the Qiu family has an accident, we have to settle accounts with each other. Otherwise, in the future, Qiu Pan Tan couldn't hold his head up even more."

"Yes." Of course Qiu Zhongwen understood this truth.

Qiu Pan's old eyes showed a murderous look: "Kill Feng Ting first, let Xun Hanchuan know that our Qiu family is not so calculating, and let Chifu know our Qiu family's bloodiness."

"Yes, old man, I'll do it." Qiu Wenwen said.

"Okay, tonight." Qiu Pan said.

"Yes." Qiu Wenwen bowed his head and agreed.

Originally, Qiu Tan thought that his father's killing of Feng Ting must be a matter of his hand, but he became uneasy.

"Get ready," Qiu Pan said.

"Yes."

Qiu Pan's eyes fell on Qiu Tan again, and said, "Remember what I said, no matter what I did with your father, it has nothing to do with you."

"Yes, Grandpa." Qiu Tan immediately agreed.

"Go back to Guangling College." After Qiu Pan finished speaking, he walked out of the courtyard.

"Yes." Qiu Tan watched his grandfather disappear before looking at his father.He originally wanted to comfort his father, but he felt that if he comforted him, it might embarrass his father even more.

Qiu Wenwen looked at his son and said, "Listen to the old man, go back to the academy, and try not to come back."

"But father..."

"Remember the old man's instructions, go back to the academy, and don't let the Qiu family implicate you." Qiu Zhongwen said solemnly.

"Yes!"

Qiu Tan felt the pain in his father's heart. Although he agreed, he didn't turn around and leave.

"Go!" Qiu Zhongwen said seriously.

"Father, I will go with you tonight." Qiu Tan said.

Qiu Zhongwen's eyes showed anger: "Do you want me to slap you too?"

Qiu Tan felt his father's anger, he didn't dare to persist any longer, and said in a low voice, "Father, I'm going back."

"Let's go, try not to come back." Qiu Zhongwen waved his hand and stopped looking at Qiu Tan.

Qiu Tan reluctantly turned around and walked out of the small courtyard.When I looked back, my father was no longer in the yard.For some reason, he felt desolate in his heart.

Qiu Wenwen stood in the study room with the windows closed. He looked through the gap and watched his son's back disappear before turning around and sitting down.There was endless solemnity on his thin face.

After a long time, he slowly stood up and walked into the secret room next to him.This is a very small secret room, there is not even a chair in it, it is empty, like a square prison cell.

He wanted to calm himself down, because what he was going to do next was related to the future of the Qiu family, his and Qiu Tan's lives, and more importantly, his and Qiu Tan's dignity.
