Chapter 205: Jiuxue_1

Of course, the Feng family couldn’t be the only powerful family. There were more than ten families like him in ocean Saint City. As for the second – rate families, there were dozens. Sea Saint City was not like Jiang state capital. Sea Saint City was the center of the seven southern provinces of Chu State and the largest city. The population was in the millions, several times that of the Jiang Prefecture. The sea Saint King was in charge of ocean Saint City. “The young lady has returned to the residence!” At this time, someone saw the big Eagle Landing and immediately shouted. Suddenly, the Feng residence became lively. “Old master, I’m back.” Feng jiuxue was also quite happy and ran all the way into the hall. “Hahaha, good, good, good. My jiuxue is back.” An old man in high spirits appeared in the hall, laughing. The old man had a round face and was dressed in a purple robe with large flowers. His hair was completely white and was pinned up with a pin. He was the oldest person in the Feng clan, the Feng clan’s old patriarch, Feng Jianwu, who was almost a hundred years old. “Jiuxue greets great – grandfather.” Feng jiuxue cupped her fists and said. “Alright, alright, alright. There’s no need for formalities. Quickly sit down.” Old patriarch Feng said with a smile and the servants served tea. “Xue ‘er is back?” Not long after, the current head of the Feng family, Feng Chaodong, came in with a smile. “Is father well? And what about mother?” Feng jiuxue asked. “I’m well, of course I’m well. Your mother went to offer incense.” Feng Chaodong said. “Did you successfully advance this time? Otherwise, your master will not let you go down the mountain. ” Feng Jianwu asked. “Yes, two levels in a row.” Feng jiuxue nodded arrogantly. “Hahaha, our Feng clan will definitely have a rank one expert in the future.” Feng Jianwu stroked his beard and laughed. “Xue ‘er is only seventeen years old, but she’s already advanced third stage. Rank -1 isn’t much, and it’s possible to reach the ‘transcendent’ realm. ” Feng Chaodong said. “Yes, Xue ‘er must work harder to raise the Feng family’s prestige.” Feng Jianwu nodded. “By the way, father has been writing to me. Is there something wrong?” Feng jiuxue asked. “It’s about your great – grandfather back then. Your great – grandfather had a sworn brother. He was from the Yanling County of Linghai province, and his surname was Fang. Of course, the Fang family’s great – grandfather had long died. However, some time ago, a descendant of the Fang family, Fang Qiang, specially sent this servant to deliver a letter, asking for our help. ” Feng Chaodong said. “Help with what?” Feng jiuxue asked. “I heard that it was a kid called Tang Wen who provoked them, and that person was a fallen noble. He actually caused the death of Yanling’s six fans division’s branch master Kang Qingfeng, who had been helping the Fang family all along. Later on, the new chapter leader bullied the Fang family in order to please Tang Wen. The Fang family couldn’t take it anymore, so they came to our sect. Xue ‘er, this is under your jurisdiction. Just take care of Tang Wen, so that the Fang family won’t say that we don’t care about our old friendship. ” Feng Chaodong said. “No matter how the Fang family is like to us now, in the past, the Fang family’s great – grandfather and I were sworn brothers. We can’t just watch as the Fang family’s descendants get bullied.” Feng Jianwu said with a long face. “Alright, I’ll go back to the office tomorrow and pick a day to go to the ridge to handle it.” Feng jiuxue nodded. “You’ve advanced by two Yuan this time. Is it possible that you’ll be the head of the bloody massacre Hall?” Feng Chaodong asked. “I’ll try my best, okay? However, the blood kill Hall was different from the other halls. “Although I’ve successfully advanced in rank, the Old Hall Masters are all complete rank -3. “In fact, I’m still a little lacking compared to half – rank -2 powerhouses.” Feng jiuxue said. “It’s different this time. Your Old Hall Master seems to be sick. You haven’t been to the Yamen since you left, and the six fan division has sent people to ask about you several times. You may be appointed as a substitute Hall Master, and after you’ve made some contributions, you can officially take up the position. This is an opportunity, you must grasp it. If you can become the hall Master, our family in sea Saint City will be different. ” Feng Chaodong said. “Yes, I’ll go to the Yamen early tomorrow morning. This time, master even gave me the ‘moon summoning sword’. It’s extremely sharp. ” Feng jiuxue nodded. “The moon summoning sword. I heard that the sword was the one – armed divine nun’s famous weapon. It’s the work of a great swordsmithing master, and can cut through iron like mud. ” Feng Chaodong was stunned for a moment, and then he was overjoyed. “Of course. Master used it to kill thirty – six grass bandits in the North. The Jianghu was terrified when they heard of it.” Feng jiuxue said arrogantly. “Hahaha, when the time comes, my Xue ‘er will also use it to kill hundreds of bandits with a single sword and shock the great Chu dynasty.” Feng Jianwu laughed. The next morning, Ximen taigao came again. “Lord Jue, they’ve agreed.” “I’m afraid there are conditions?” Tang Wen glanced at him and asked. “That’s true. ” Ximen taigao hesitated for a moment and said. “Father, you can’t ask for such a high price. Old master is a good person.” LAN Yun ‘er said. “This is the sect’s business, what does a woman like you have to do with it?” Ximen Tai’s face turned serious and he said stiffly. “Lord Jue, we’ve already discussed this. We’ve spent a lot of effort in Cloud Sea sect over the past few decades, and there are many experts in the sect. In addition, our Cloud Sea sect also takes up a large portion of the ocean transportation business. Our ships are the ones transporting the goods to the surrounding islands. Out of Cloud Sea sect’s 3856 members, there are more than 500 people who are unwilling to sell themselves. We’ve already given them silver yesterday, so they can make a living on their own. ” Wang haiting said. “Oh, who’s not willing to sell their bodies?” Tang Wen asked. “Li Liufeng, Lin Tianwei and the others have left. Cloud ocean sect has lost quite a few experts. The others were okay, but the people who left were not very powerful. However, he’s still a disciple of cloud ocean sect. I’m not capable enough as the sect leader, and I’m ashamed of my ancestors. ” Ximen taigao said with a pained expression. “Thus, they proposed a condition. The Tang Clan has to pay us six million taels of silver, and we will distribute it. Otherwise, he was afraid that more people would leave. At that time, Cloud Sea sect will be disbanded. ” Wang haiting said. “Six million taels, is the cloud Sea sect worth this much?” Luo Yiwu said unhappily. “Hehe, you’re so poor that you can’t even take out a million taels now. What face do you have to ask for six million taels?” Yan Beitian sneered. “Father, six million taels is too high. Even old master can’t take it out. Can you lower the price?” LAN Yun ‘er said. “Shut up! I’ll chase you out of the house if you keep nagging. ” Ximen taigao was instantly enraged. “I ...” LAN Yun ‘er roared, and tears welled up in her eyes. “You have already fired LAN Yun ‘er. She is now a servant of the Tang family. You have no right to be angry at her.” Gu hanyan snorted angrily. “Women ...” Tang Wen shook his head in his heart. The two of them were still quarreling yesterday, but they actually made up today. What were women made of? “These are the conditions. If Sir Jue thinks it’s fine, then sign the contract.” Ximen tai said coldly. “Your conditions are very high. There are only 3300 of you left. Six million taels, that was two thousand taels on everyone’s head. Hehe, are your handymen only worth 2000 taels of silver when they’re only ninth and tenth grade disciples?” Tang Wen said with a smile. “But we have a lot of rank -6 and above powerhouses. There are about 150 of us. “Moreover, even if li Liufeng and Lin Tianwei are gone, we still have seven or eight rank -4 powerhouses left. Moreover, the sect leader was a rank -3. What did they mean by rank -4 powerhouses? one of them could be sold for at least 100000 taels. Sect leader, aren’t you embarrassed if you don’t give me 500000 taels? “Also, these are people. We still have property, a large number of houses, ships, and flintlocks. All of this was money, and a stick of fire Gu would cost a few hundred taels of silver. “A black cannon and cannonballs cost tens of thousands of silver, and we have dozens of them ...” Wang haiting said. “Elder Wang, you’re really good at divination. It’s such a pity that you didn’t go to your account.” Tang Wen sneered,
