The Dutian Lingguan Road that started from the Taoist soldiers

Chapter 32 Confrontation
"Of course, he needs to give an explanation for the Zhao family's problem, but Cheng Ji is the mastermind among the three assassins."

"Blood Lord, could you please go on my behalf and arrest the entire Cheng family and torture them thoroughly?"

Wu Yong sat in the middle of the high platform in the market town, looking at the Blood God Son who was standing at the outermost edge.

"I will follow your orders!" The Blood God bowed slightly, and the blood river wrapped up the evil spirits in the evil camp and headed towards the Cheng family's land.

When extracting the souls of Cheng Ji, the Blood God had already figured out the details of the famous Danyang family, the Cheng family. However, the Blood God alone could arrest all of the four sorcerers in just a few minutes!
Although they knew that this was most likely a game set up by the various families, they had no choice but to use these small families that had joined the game as sacrifices.

There are only two ways out for Wu.

First, by joining the game, they could draw out the Zhao family. As long as they could survive the first wave of Zhao's counterattack, the county government, the Jiang Patrol Officer, the Heishan County in Jiangbei, and even the governor of Yuan County far away in Shouchun would probably not be able to resist coming out to blame the Zhao family.

By then, I'm afraid that even the number one family in Danyang will be torn apart!

He could no longer control the interests of Jiang Yun.

Of course, the Wu family got nothing from this. Even if someone was willing to compensate them, they had no ability to get it. Even under the attack of the Zhao family, they were at the end of their rope!
The second way is to be open with the Zhao family, get a stepping stone, use this stepping stone to retreat from Danyang obediently.

However, with the Zhao family's arrogance, is the Wu family really worth their compromise without the alchemy master? In their eyes, it would probably only force the Wu family to take the first path.
"What a trouble!" Wu Yong rubbed his brows.

The water in Danyang is getting deeper and deeper.

At this moment, the Water Qilin and General Dividing Water had long been forgotten by him.

At this time, he has to face the Danyang Zhao family, who are led by four mages, and many noble families and Taoist historians hidden in the dark.

The only thing he wanted now was to leave this vortex safely and with dignity!

"Zongzi, someone from the Zhao family is coming!" A man walked quickly to Wu Yong's side and said softly.

"Well, please have someone receive them, I'll be right back!"

Wu Yong waved his hand to send the Taoist away, then took off his armor and changed into a green Taoist robe. He combed his hair up, tied it with a Taoist hairpin, and went to meet the visitor from the Zhao family in a slightly more decent manner.

Danjiang Market was closed after this incident, and only a few kind-hearted shop owners remained in the market.

Wu Yong straightened his Taoist robe and walked into the hall. He saw a middle-aged man sitting on the right and a young man sitting below him.

These two are the eldest son and the eldest son of the Zhao family!
When the sorcerer who was accompanying the audience saw Wu Yong coming, he stood up and left silently, leaving the hall to Wu Yong and the other two.

Wu Yong walked into the arena, not angry, but just bowed lightly to the two of them and sat down in the main seat.

He said, "I was sniped and killed by three sorcerers at 3 pm today. One of them was from the Zhao family's side branch, and the other was a servant of the Zhao family. The leader was from the famous Danyang family named Cheng."

"May I ask, what do you two think?"

The bodies of the three people were still hanging outside, which made the eldest son of the Zhao family look quite ugly.

When the Wu family first arrived in Danyang, they presented a generous gift to the family, and he also accepted their gifts. But now this has happened!
The eldest son of the Zhao family stroked his beautiful beard and his expression suddenly became serious.

He said coldly: "This traitor deserves this fate."

"I will give you an explanation for this matter! But I have to bury their bodies to avoid any trouble outside!"

"I advise you, the eldest son of the Wu family, to leave Danyang as soon as possible. Don't become a knife for others and hurt the harmony between the two families."

The eldest son of the Zhao family, Zhao Jingde, acted in a very elegant manner and sorted out the main and secondary contradictions in this matter clearly.

However, this solution really lacked some sincerity! Not even a blank check, just to get rid of Wu Yong?

Wu Yong smiled casually:
"Danyang has become a chess game, and I, Wu Yong, have become the first pawn to cross the river on the chessboard."

"I, the pawn crossing the river, want to withdraw from this chess game without any hesitation. There must be a reason, right?"

"This matter is big and small! Cheng Ji from the Cheng family was the leader of the assassination attempt on me, so he must take the responsibility for this matter."

"I was lured to Danyang because of a case in Danjiang Market. If Brother Zhao conducts a thorough investigation on the river and helps me to resolve the disturbance in Danjiang Market, I will leave Danyang without hesitation!"

"how?"

To put it bluntly, it means giving up Chengjia to give Wu Yong an explanation and save his face.

Danjiang Market is easy to deal with. It's just a bandit on the water. His Zhao family is rich and has the Zhujiang River. If the pirate really dares to come again, he can lock the river and make sure that the pirate will not be able to come in or out!

Zhao Jingde gently stroked his beautiful beard, weighed the options quickly in his mind, and after a moment, nodded.

Wu Yong's two conditions are reasonable. They give him a way out and prevent people behind him from pushing the situation further.

"Can!"

"Today I will collect the bodies of those two people. My clan will definitely get to the bottom of this matter, and the final result will be left to you, Dongjun!"

"It would be better for the Wu family's eldest son to leave early."

The status was determined in a few words, and Zhao Jingde turned around and left with his eldest son without stopping.

When he stepped out of the door, he turned his head and squinted at Wu Yong, saying leisurely:

"Oh, right, that evil sorcerer seems to be from Jiaozhou, and the Jiang Patrol Historian, his last incumbent was a Tongpan (general) who had served in Jiaozhou for a hundred years."

"Just keep it in mind!"

Zhao Jingde strode out of the market with his eldest son. With a flick of his sleeves, purple clouds filled the air and his magical power was so great that he broke the two locust wood stakes and put the bodies of Zhao's collateral sword cultivator and the worshipper sorcerer into his bag.

With a glance of his tiger eyes, he looked around to see all kinds of scrutiny.

He shouted in a deep voice: "This matter was not done by our Zhao family. If there are villains who want to take advantage of this opportunity to frame us, I'm afraid they have made a wrong calculation, humph!"

After he finished speaking, his magic power surged up into the sky, and the mist wrapped the two of them and flew straight back to Zhao Mansion.

In the sunset glow, the eldest son of the Zhao family, the eldest son of Zhao Jingde, frowned slightly and reminded:

"Father, I'm afraid the third branch of the Cheng family won't give up easily!"

The Cheng family is the maternal family of the third wife's eldest son and is also the third wife's most loyal supporter.

I'm afraid that Zhao Jingde's decision will cause a lot of trouble!

"The third branch? You bastards, you can't manage your own dogs. Do you want to drag the whole clan down with you to be buried with them?"

"Do you know that the old immortal in the county government, the old Taoist on the river, and those people from Black Mountain are all watching here today!"

"The Wu family is easy to deal with, but they are one of the few families in Dongzhou that rose to prominence by quelling demons and quelling rebellions, and they have made outstanding contributions. Are we really going to let someone take advantage of someone's misfortune and bully loyal people?"

Zhao Jingde shouted loudly and scolded his eldest son directly to wake him up!
"After we go back, the clan will investigate thoroughly!"

"Today they can control our people to kill Wu Yong, tomorrow they can control our people to attack the students of the Dao Palace, and the day after tomorrow they will dare to use our names to stroke the tiger whiskers of those top families!"

"After you go back, investigate thoroughly and expose these traitors." As the eldest son of the Zhao family, he understands the family's situation better than anyone else. The Zhao family seems to be flourishing, but in fact, if they make a wrong step, they will fall into the abyss.

The newly appointed Jiang Xun Daoshi had served in such a wild place as Jiaozhou for many years. He had a large number of ruthless criminals and officials under him. He was also used to taking unconventional approaches. He was the most shameful and hateful person.

Heishan County, which had been in internal strife for hundreds of years, was integrated a few years ago. The impoverished Heishan was always thinking about tearing off a piece of fat meat from Danyang on the other side of the river to fill its stomach.

But the governor of Danyang County was not on the same page with him. With the wolves surrounding him, even though his Zhao family had four alchemy mages, they still felt powerless!

Even extremism is prevalent within the clan, and they still rely on the reputation of being the number one family in Danyang to run rampant in the prefectures and counties.

Zhao Jingde rubbed his brows with a headache, adjusted his mood, and said to his eldest son in a gentle voice:
"My dear, you have to comfort the third wife, then your family can be safe!"

"We only need to push a few people to take the blame. Cheng Ji betrayed us and killed Wu Yong, but we, the Zhao family, endorsed him. How can that be possible?"

"It would be fine if we push the Chengji lineage out to take the blame."

The rosy glow appeared and the purple mist filled the sky, enveloping the two of them and quickly carrying them away.

The secret agents from all sides around the market town also stopped their activities and there was no more movement!

Wu Yong was sitting at the entrance of the market town. Even he did not expect Zhao Jingde to be so straightforward and make the decision with just two sentences.

It seems that this eldest son of the Zhao family is also a man of great resolution and swiftness!

At this moment, in the Dantian acupoint sea, the Wan'ya Pot was flying up and down around the Fusang wood. The spiritual charm of the two was constantly blending and nourishing each other, and the flowing mist was also constantly replenishing the spiritual power in Wu Yong's body.

Wu Xuan and a few others stood behind him, waiting for the person in charge of the Cheng family, a prominent family in Shayingti, to come and see them.

"So, what should we do next?" Wu Xuan crossed her arms, stood behind Wu Yong, and asked, "Are we still going to the sea to arrest that bandit cultivator?"

Looking at her eager face, Wu Yong's mouth couldn't help but twitch slightly.

"I'm not going. I'll take the Cheng family cultivators and return to Dongjun."

"Danyang is about to get into chaos!"

Wu Yong sighed slightly.

Even a big family like the Zhao family has had its own children get into such a big trouble. I'm afraid their opponents are not law-abiding people.

Who knows what will happen in Danyang next!

"Grandfather, uncle! Zhao Jingde promised that he would take care of the follow-up of Danjiang Market. I think after we leave Danyang, the market can also be settled down."

"I see that the Zhao family has now become the center of the vortex, but don't get too close to them!"

After he finished speaking, Wu Yong suddenly laughed at himself.

"You are mature and prudent, and you know much more than a rookie like me. It's not my place to say this!"

The first attempt was a complete failure.

Wu Yong had fallen into someone else's trap as soon as he entered Danyang. He thought that he could not defeat these old foxes, so he better stay away from them!
The only consolation is that it didn't undermine the prestige of the Wu family!
Old Master He was wearing a straw raincoat and a green robe, and outside the raincoat he carried a three-foot long Wu hook with a cold glow, which gave him a murderous aura!

Nodded:

"We saved it! When you go back, you should concentrate on your cultivation. The future of the Wu and He families depends on you!"

The old man tapped the ground lightly with his cane and spoke earnestly.

"You must know that we are fighting for a long-term path. There is no need to fight for the moment. Once you have mastered the power of Gangsha and led a battalion of rampant soldiers and ghosts, even ordinary magicians will have to give you a little face!"

But at this moment, just bear with it as much as you can.

Upon hearing this, Wu Yong closed his eyes slightly and nodded slightly in response.

Just when everyone was feeling depressed, a red cloud floated in from the sky. When it got closer, they realized that it was not a red cloud at all, but a river of blood hanging from the sky.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out that the Blood God Son had already brought the Cheng clan members back here!

The surging blood river seemed like an illusion. When it approached the ground, it suddenly shrank. Then, like dumplings falling from the ground, skeleton monsters, armored beasts, and a large number of Taoist monks rushed out.
It fell all over the ground with a crash!
The cultivator from the main line of the Cheng family had just been sucked into the scarlet blood river by that terrifying Taoist priest, and he fell down in a daze with stars in his eyes.

By the time he reacted, he was already surrounded by people. There were ferocious orcs, terrifying black skeletons, Taoist robed soldiers riding dragon horses, and the familiar He family of Danyang City.
The first few warlocks shrank their heads and looked at the heroic young man sitting on the high platform!
"What a great family to start!"

"Cheng Ji tried to murder the eldest son of the Wu family in the street, and now he is caught red-handed. What do you have to say?"

He Miao stood in the audience, scowling and scolding.

The Taoist guards of the Wu family immediately stepped forward and pinned the monks to the ground one by one. The three-foot wind control order was hung above their heads, ready to take their lives at any time.
On several streets of the market town, independent shop owners gathered one after another, eating melons from afar.

"What's the situation now?" asked a stall owner who had just arrived at the market.

"The bodies of the two Zhao family sorcerers have been redeemed. I heard that Cheng Ji was the mastermind behind this major case."

"They are being interrogated about their marriage right now!"

The stall owner who just happened to be in the market and had not figured out the situation yet was shocked and said:
"Isn't it the governor who has the legal authority to try the noble families of the prefecture?"

"The Wu family is overstepping their authority!"

"Taoist law also stipulates that if a large or small clan of an aristocratic family is attacked and killed, the Taoist court must issue an imperial decree and five groups of Taoist soldiers must be dispatched to exterminate the three clans!" Shopkeeper Zhu of the small bamboo building curled his lips slightly.

The Dao Court has not been in charge for a long time. In recent years, the governors of each continent have been in charge of the court. How can anyone care about whether it is an usurpation of power or not?

Seeing the members of the prominent Cheng family being forced to kneel on the ground outside the market town, the independent cultivators in the market town all looked like they were watching a commotion, some even took out their own talismans to record the entire process.

The monks who were married outside the market were taken to the ground, all with angry looks on their faces.

"My family is a prominent family in Danjiang, and we are related to the Zhao family. How dare you treat us like this?"

"The Wu family's superior shouldn't treat us like this. The facts have not been clarified yet. Please give us some time!"

"Yes, this was done by Cheng Ji alone. What does it have to do with our entire family? Can't you just deal with Cheng Ji's lineage?"

For a moment, everyone had their own opinions, but they only protested verbally. No one wanted to resist an ordinary Qigong Taoist from the Wu family.

It was really that the Blood Lord's power was too terrifying. The twenty-four skeleton monsters in the Evil Camp raised the Five Horses Pagoda Lock and broke the entire Cheng family's clan formation into pieces in the blink of an eye.

Before the Cheng family practitioners could respond.

The twelve armored beasts were like the ancient ferocious apes. They leaped over the high wall and jumped into their tribe's territory. Their palms as big as palm-leaf fans swept left and right, smashing the Taoists' protective magic weapons one by one.

He picked up these monks one by one like chickens, held them under his arms, and threw them into the river of blood.

Such brutal means caused everyone present to suffer a lot early on.
