My apprentice is a little weird?

In the afternoon, Xu Wei, the head of the Xu family, was still drinking tea peacefully, imagining in his mind how to negotiate with the Wu family and get a bigger share of the Li family's assets.

Suddenly a loud shout was heard and his butler, Lao Wang, ran to him in panic.

"Report to the Patriarch! The eldest young master! Him!"

Xu Wei gently stroked the teacup and said calmly:

"Did you kidnap another woman? You don't need to report such trivial matters to me in the future."

Old Wang stuttered:

"No... no... the young master... he... he... is dead."

“Poof!! Cough cough!”

"What did you say!"

Old Wang was sprayed with tea in the face, but he didn't get angry and told everything.

The news that all of Li's business had been swallowed up by Wu's family was also revealed.

With a loud bang, Xu Wei smashed the teacup to pieces with a distorted expression.

"When did it happen !"

"This... this... was news that came out in the early morning... Young Master... Young Master was also assassinated in the early morning..."

"What? Why did I only know this now? What do you guys do for a living?!"

"Master, please forgive me! Before the young master went in, he had instructed that no one should enter to disturb him, so the guards did not dare to..."

Xu Wei was so angry that his lungs almost exploded after hearing this. It was really a hopeless case!

The successive blows gave him a headache, and then he suddenly seemed to have thought of something and asked hurriedly:

"That kid Xu Shu...did he find the immortal?"

Old Wang bent down: "No...no..."

Xu Wei took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart.

"Damn it! Damn it!"

"Wu Liang, this smiling tiger, dares to backstab me!"

Xu Wei suppressed his anger, veins bulged on his face, and his fingers were clenched so hard that they made a crackling sound.

He raised his hand several times, then put it down again. Finally, helplessly, he spoke through gritted teeth:

"Spread the word! Say that I will personally go to the Wu family tomorrow! To pay them a visit!"

Xu Wei didn't believe it. He didn't believe that Wu Liang had the guts to stab his Xu family in the back.

Because Wu Liang had seen the power of immortals, he should understand that showing off one's bravery for a moment would be of no use at all.

The person who killed his son might be the loyal dog trained by the Li family who put up a desperate resistance, or it might really be done by Wu Liang's people.

However, this account can be entirely blamed on Wu Liang.

But he couldn't take advantage of the situation now, because he didn't know where Xu Shu had gone recently.

If Xu Shu hadn't been there, the Xu family alone wouldn't have put too much pressure on Wu Liang. If he found out that the immortal was not there, he might even counterattack.

Therefore, he could only release the news openly to put pressure on Wu Liang in disguise, and secretly look for Xu Shu.

…………

At the same time, inside Wu Mansion.

At this moment, Wu Liang was like an ant on a hot pan, feeling extremely anxious and worried.

Now he has mixed feelings. On the one hand, he is happy to have swallowed up such a huge industry, but on the other hand, he is worried about the immortal of the Xu family.

He already knew that Xu Wei was going to visit him tomorrow, and he also knew the other party's underlying intentions.

And he is also prepared to give away half of his assets when the time comes.

Of course I'm unwilling to do this, but there's nothing I can do. I'm just too scared.

However, at this moment, a spy entered the house and whispered something to Wu Liang.

After a while, a gleam of light flashed in Wu Liang's eyes.

"What? Dead? Confirmed!"

"I don't know, but someone did see it with their own eyes. An old man dragged a young man in a Taoist robe and fled out of Lianshan City in the middle of the night!"

"The old man ran away in a panic, as if he was afraid of someone behind him, and the young man looked more like a dead man, with his head tilted and dragged on the ground for hundreds of meters without any reaction!"

Wu Liang paced back and forth, thinking secretly in his heart.

Before I could come to my senses, another person came to report!

It is said that the young master of the Xu family died in an assassination!

Wu Liang's eyes flashed with brilliance, and he grabbed him and asked:

"When did this happen!"

The spy trembled and said:

"Master...Master, this happened this morning. I was not good at my job and was not the first to know about it. Please punish me!"

The spy was extremely scared. It was a great dereliction of duty that he didn't know about such a big thing until the afternoon. He was afraid he would be punished.

But Wu Liang not only did not punish him, but he burst into laughter!

"Hahahahaha!"

"Although I was not the one who killed his son, he relied on the immortal to not threaten me, but concealed the matter!"

"The news of the Li family's surrender has spread like wildfire, but Xu Wei didn't release the news until the afternoon. He will visit tomorrow~"

"This is totally unlike Xu Wei's previous style. His current performance is more like ~ lack of confidence"

"Could it be that the immortal is really dead?"

Wu Liang raised the corner of his mouth and looked at the Li family patriarch token in his hand dimly, wondering what he was thinking.

"No, it's not stable yet. Let's try it tomorrow~"

"As for the assassin, it was probably the remnant of the Li family, so there is nothing to be afraid of."

…………

The outside world was in turmoil, but at this moment, the Li Mansion was unusually quiet.

The room was empty, most of the servants had left, and the door was sealed.

As night fell, the snow finally stopped and a cold wind began to blow.

And in a small pavilion in the backyard.

Shen Ming had a bitter face and lay limply on the stone table.

Her pair of little hands were exposed and turned white from the cold, but she seemed not to feel the cold and was just looking at the pile of books on the table in front of her.

Turning her head sideways, the red little face looked at Jiang Yan who was leaning against the railing.

"Master, I have already learned how to speak... Can I stop learning..."

A childish voice came out of Shen Ming's mouth, a little stumbling, but generally smooth.

"Ahaha~ You think I want to teach..."

Jiang Yan yawned and spoke weakly with dark circles under his eyes.

"Also, call me Master..."

Shen Ming pouted and automatically ignored the latter sentence. She ran to Jiang Yan, grabbed the hem of his clothes and shook him back and forth. Her pair of eyes as clear as sapphires looked at Jiang Yan pitifully.

"Master, can you please go to sleep?"

Looking at Shen Ming acting cute, Jiang Yan was unmoved...

It must be said that the child has a really good talent for learning, so good that even he is a little envious.

Originally, Jiang Yan wanted to let her study for a few hours and learn a few words.

But I didn't expect that this teaching would be so serious, just like a breach in a reservoir, it was out of control!

I worked straight from last night to tonight without stopping for even a moment.

And Shen Ming was like a dry sponge, madly absorbing the knowledge he needed!

It’s outrageous that I learned the quadratic equation from Jiang Yan!

In the spirit of striking while the iron is hot, Jiang Yan directly consumed his energy to replenish Shen Ming's lost spirit! Let her keep studying at the peak state, in short, she can't stop!

Who made Jiang Yan a person who believes in once and for all solution?

"Be good, just memorize all these books and they will be gone"

Shen Ming's face fell immediately after hearing this. He opened his arms and hugged Jiang Yan directly, burying his head in his arms, and said sullenly:

"Master, my head... hurts..."
