Lord Futian

Chapter 23 - Gu family crisis



But the news was learned by the opposing forces. On the one hand, the opposing party sent people to chase and block them all the way, and on the other hand, they deliberately spread the news, attracting many warriors to join in the pursuit.

The six-star warrior who was beheaded by Li Qingniu before was one of the people who came here after hearing the wind.

However, most warriors abide by the dignity of the warrior and did not participate in the hunt. Most of the people who were chasing and killing a few people were misbehaving. Because of their desire for profit, they could not specialize in martial arts and wanted to take this opportunity to take shortcuts and practice despicable warriors.

“Originally, there were many people who went with me, and several of them were six-star warriors, but they fell one after another in the constant pursuit. They… They were all to protect me…”

As he spoke, Murong Lanyu couldn’t help but choke.

It’s no wonder that a weak woman like her who has been guarded by the stars since she was a child has suddenly experienced so many catastrophes. Watching those uncles and uncles died in battle in front of her, it is indeed difficult to let go of it easily. Right.

This is the second time that Li Qingniu has seen a girl crying in front of him with rain.

Seeing tears on his charming and flowery face made him have an inexplicable intolerance and pity haunting his heart.

“Miss, don’t cry, please don’t worry, even if our Fang Tong fights for her life, we will protect Miss.”

“Although I admire your courage to fear death, but as weak as you, are you sure you can protect her?”

Fang Tong heard this, his face was green and red. Although he was right, he was really weak compared to the other party, but no matter how much he was once a highly respected four-star warrior, he was suddenly so straightforward. When I say that I am weak, I feel awkward when I hear it.

The embarrassing atmosphere made the air seem stagnant, and Murong Lanyu spoke at the right time: “Anyway, if there is no care and protection from Uncle Fang on this road, even if Lanyu has ten lives, they will have all been used up.”

“This is Fang’s duty.”

Murong Lanyu turned his head and said to Li Qingniu: “Looking at the son, he seems to be on his way. I don’t know where the son is going?”

“I heard that the Sky Star Sect will start recruiting disciples soon, and I’m about to go there.”

“Oh? So the son also wants to go to the Sky Star Sect. If Mr. Meng doesn’t give up, would he be willing to go along with us?”

When Fang Tong heard the words, he couldn’t help frowning: “Miss, we…”

But before Fang Tong finished speaking, Murong Lanyu continued: “Of course, if the son is worried that going with me will cause trouble, Lan Yu will naturally not force it.”

After finishing speaking, she saw her head drooping slightly, seemingly lost. Seeing this, Li Qingniu couldn’t bear to rise again.

“I’m not afraid to trouble me, but Miss Lan Yu doesn’t look like a martial artist, but why does she go to the Sky Star Sect?”

“I have an uncle who teaches in the Tianxing Sect. He is the strongest warrior in our Murong family. My father originally asked me to go to him. My father said that as long as he is there, no one can touch me.”

“That’s it, well, then we will be on the road together tomorrow. You used too much energy before, so let’s rest early now.”

After receiving Li Qingniu’s promise, Murong Lanyu gave a gleeful hum, and ordered several people to rest early. Fang Tong always wanted to say something, but seeing that it was done, he finally swallowed what he had already said.

“Hey, this little girl is young, but it’s not easy.”

As soon as Li Qingniu closed his eyes and was about to rest, he heard the sound of the sword spirit in his head.

Upon hearing this, Li Qingniu frowned slightly, and said calmly: “What do you mean? What you want to say is deceptive?”

Sword Spirit laughed and said, “That’s not enough, but it’s often the most difficult to distinguish between true and false, and false and true. Don’t be fascinated by beauty, you kid, remember to stay awake at all times.”

“I’m not obsessed with my mind…” Li Qingniu mumbled a few words in his head, ignoring the sword spirit, and leaned against the wall to sleep.

In the early morning of the next day, everyone packed their bags and set off for the Sky Star Sect.

There is still less than half a month before the day when the Tianxingzong recruits disciples. Counting the distance, there is still plenty of time. The group of people are walking around in the mountains and rivers, and the life is quite comfortable.

When nothing happened, Murong Lanyu would chat with Li Qingniu, or ask the parents about Li Dan.

The content of the chat between the two people was remembered from the time they were young, and they told each other about their recent encounters. Almost all of their pasts have been told to each other.

“Presumably Young Master Li must like that girl Gu very much.”

In the evening, under the sunset, two figures sat on a huge rock and watched the sunset gradually sink into the sea of ​​clouds.

The afterglow blush reflected on each other’s faces, like shy blushes.

When Murong Lanyu spoke, there was an inexplicable sense of loss in his expression.

“Like? I don’t know. Deaf mothers didn’t teach me. Do you know what liking is?”

Murong Lanyu was startled, and said: “Like is…that is when two people meet, they feel happy, they miss each other after they are separated, and when they are with him, they feel meaningful in everything, as if there is always something to say to each other. Say…it seems…that’s it.

“So I like this?”

“Actually, I’m not sure if I like it or not, but if I like that person, I will always worry about it. If I don’t pay attention, I will think of him.”

As Murong Lanyu said, he couldn’t help lowering his head. He felt the fiery sensation on his face. If it weren’t like a **** setting sun as a cover, I’m afraid she would have buried her entire head in her knees. Up.

Li Qingniu looked at the burning cloud in the distance, thinking about what Murong Lanyu said. He suddenly felt that the issue of feelings was so complicated, and it was much more complicated than practicing martial arts and fighting brutal beasts.

At this time, earth-shaking changes were taking place in Qingyang City.

The Mohs Chamber of Commerce formally launched a full-scale siege to the Gu family, both armed confrontation and commercial siege.

Before, Gu Chuan had been ill in bed and was unconscious. Although Gu Ruoqing was in charge of the chamber of commerce, she was a female stream after all. No matter how capable she was, many people were not convinced by him.

There are not a few secretive ghosts like Gu Chengmu, but they are not as blatant as Gu Chengmu.

But Mo Cheng, who has been quietly inciting everything behind the scenes, is very clear about the hidden danger of Gu’s family.

Gu Ruoqing also knew in her heart that there were many people in the family who dissatisfied her, but in order to avoid causing internal strife in the family, she had always tried her best to balance the parties and barely maintain the normal operation of the entire chamber of commerce.

Gu Chengmu’s death was originally an invisible shock to them, and Gu Chuan just recovered at this time. This was originally an excellent time to rectify the family’s internal problems, but unexpectedly, the Mo family chose to attack at this time.

This time, the branch forces in the family that have been eager to move have space for fantasy, coupled with the frontal attack of the Mo Chamber of Commerce, gave them the confidence to blatantly confront Gu Chuan and his daughter.

“Father, Mo Xingming used Mo Shaoxie’s death as an excuse to take the opportunity to annex our Gu family. The elders of those tribes have become fascinated one by one, regardless of family interests. If this continues, the Chamber of Commerce really can’t support it. How long.”

In the past few days, the Gu’s caravan has suffered inexplicable attacks every time it goes out of the city, and there are many masters in the opposing camp. Every time his caravan goes out, he suffers heavy casualties. Recently, I don’t know how much it has paid for the settlement and medical care.

And the news quickly spread throughout Qingyang City, except for Gu Chuan’s own cronies, almost no one would like to be employed by Gu’s family anymore.

In terms of merchandise sales, Mohs also made a price war with the Gu family, vowing to push Gu family to ruin step by step.

In order to regain the situation, Gu Chuan had to personally go to the Zhao family lobby, one of the three major chambers of commerce.

After all, Mo Cheng’s ambitions have long been revealed, after all, the Patriarch of the Zhao family had already promised to help the Gu family fight against Mo Cheng. But at this time, Mo Cheng colluded with Yang Lie, who had had a feast with the Gu family before, to put pressure on the Zhao family.

In order to protect themselves, the Zhao family had to stop funding Gu Chuan.

“Damn masculinity, if Big Brother Li is still there, let him have the courage to forgive him and not dare to make trouble.”

“Yang Lie is human nature like a raging fire, and if there is a grudge, I will get revenge. I knew he would not let the Gu family easily, but due to the reputation of the Gu family, if it were not for Mo Cheng, Yang Lie would not be so anxious to get in. “

“Daddy, why don’t we call your eldest brother back. With Big Brother Li here, he definitely wouldn’t dare to be so presumptuous. Without the support of Yang Lie, coupled with the strength of Big Brother Li, Mo Cheng can be a cunning one. A toothless tiger.”

Gu Chuan thought for a while and shook his head: “This is our own housework. We shouldn’t bother Li Gongzi anymore. Besides, he is going to apply for the Tianxing Sect. If he is called back now, he will definitely miss him. This year’s time to apply for the exam, we have received too many favors from the son, and we shouldn’t cause him any more trouble.”

“What Daddy said is, then let my daughter accompany Daddy to deal with the immediate crisis.” Gu Ruoqing said firmly.

“Well, this is my Gu Chuan’s daughter.” Gu Chuan said with a gratified smile: “But don’t worry, I won’t be defeated so easily.”

Gu Ruoqing heard the words and asked, “Does Dad have any tricks?”

“I can’t say what to do. It’s just to avoid the edge for the time being and retreat as an advance. The current situation is not good for us.”

“But Qingyang City is our foundation, where can we retreat?” Gu Ruoqin hesitated.

In fact, she was not really afraid of leaving Qingyang City. What she was afraid of was that after leaving here, if Li Qingniu came back, she would not find herself.

Gu Chuan didn’t seem to notice his daughter’s thoughts. He just said to himself: “Qing’er don’t worry about this, because my father has been prepared for the crisis many years ago.”

Although Gu Ruoqing didn’t want it in her heart, he knew that it was time for the Gu family to survive, and he also knew that the burden in his father’s heart was heavier than anyone else. She didn’t want to burden Gu Chuan any more, so she had to do her best to suppress the thoughts in her heart.

The moonlight outside the window was sly, Gu Ruoqing sighed quietly: “Brother Li, do we have a chance to meet again…”
