Many seemingly complicated schemes were not complicated at all as long as the intentions of the plotters were known.
In the same scheme, everyone had their own intentions. For example, Cang Lian Dao Master's goal was simple — to rise in power.
Gu Nan's existence was unavoidable. It would be best if there was no one else under Gu Nan and she could become the Lord's representative.
In Cang Lian Dao Master's eyes, Red Tail had obviously been abandoned by the Lord or was in charge of other affairs. Everything on the mainland had been handed over to Lan Si.
That Lan Si, regardless of beauty, ability, or personal strength, could not be compared to him in any aspect.
"It's just because she has that person's trust." Cang Lian Dao Master sneered.
As long as she could wear down that person's trust in Lan Si, she believed that with her ability, she could completely replace Lan Si's position — there was nothing that Lan Si could do that she could not do.
…
"Miss Lan, Miss Lan! Bad news … "A servant hurried in from outside the door and said to Lan Si anxiously.
"What happened now?!" Lan Si turned her head impatiently. She was busy with all sorts of affairs and was in a state of irritation.
"It's the Tang Family …" The servant finally caught his breath. "The Tang Family and the people from Qian Xuan Dojo fought. I heard that someone died. Even Elder Pan went there!"
"What did you say?" Lan Si immediately stood up.
If there was anyone else on this mainland besides Gu Nan that she cared about, it would definitely be the Tang Family and Tang Xuan.
Not to mention the many times she had interacted with Tang Xuan, just the help she received from the Tang Family when she was managing Blue Water Lake was enough to make her remember this kindness.
"What exactly happened?" After these days of experience, Lan Si was someone who had done things, and was not as impulsive as she had been at first.
The servant hurriedly explained the situation.
The whole story was simple. It was nothing more than the people from Qian Xuan Dojo representing the organization to take over several of the Tang Family's resource production areas, resulting in a conflict between the two sides.
This kind of thing had happened many times in the past few days. Usually, any family that was dissatisfied would be directly suppressed … but this was the Tang Family!
"Didn't I say that no one is allowed to touch the Tang Family? How could such a thing happen?" Lan Si said with a calm face and a cold voice.
The servant broke out in a cold sweat. Lan Si impatiently waved her hand and said, "Forget it, hurry up and prepare to go to the Tang Family's Starship."
…
By the time Lan Si hurried to the Tang Clan, the scene had already been cleaned up. However, she was not in a good mood because the bodies of the deceased were still not collected.
One of them was the corpse of Old Mister Pan's third disciple. After hearing this news, Lan Shi knew that this matter was going to be difficult.
In the end, Lan Si was not like Gu Nan who would not recognize his own family. During this period of time, Elder Pan could be said to have helped her a lot and at the same time, pointed out many of her mistakes.
Therefore, she had some respect and even fear for this old man who was considered her subordinate.
"Miss Lan." Seeing Lan Si arrive, Old Mister Pan took the initiative to stand up and salute. His face was expressionless, but the sadness in his eyes could not be concealed.
After all, Lan Si had never seen such a situation. She could only say dryly, "Old Mister Pan, my condolences …"
Behind Old Mister Pan, Cang Lian Taoist Master silently rolled his eyes. He thought to himself, Isn't this person a little too inexperienced? Who would soften their attitude the moment they arrived?
How was she going to speak up for the Tang Family?
If Lan Si really softened, then it would be difficult to deal with.
So she said, "Miss Lan, you came at the right time. This Tang Family is extremely daring. They even dared to kill Old Mister Pan's disciple. In my opinion, why don't we just kill the entire family and get it over with. "
"How can we do that?!" Lan Si immediately cried out in shock.
At this moment, she heard a low voice from beside her, "You are … Lan Si?"
Lan Si turned her head and saw that Tang Xuan's face was covered in blood. Her limbs had been pierced by a sharp weapon. She could only hang her head low.
"Tang … Tang Xuan Jie?!" Lan Si's eyes widened in disbelief. Even her voice was trembling.
In the next moment, she flew to Tang Xuan's side. A Qian Xuan Dojo disciple stood in front of her and said, "Miss Lan, this is the person who killed my third senior. Please …"
"Scram!"
Lan Si, who was in a rage, had no time to think. Terrifying divine power instantly poured out and the azure light almost drowned the disciple.
Old Mister Pan frowned slightly. He took a step forward and carried his disciple away to prevent him from being injured by Lan Si, who had lost control of her emotions.
"Not too weak," Dao Master Cang Lian commented with interest. Dao Master Cang Lian evaluated with great interest from the side. Lan Si's angry attack really did have some power.
"Sister Tang Xuan, you … how are you?" Lan Si, who was flustered, only cared about stopping Tang Xuan's bleeding as she asked.
Tang Xuan's face was still ashen. She smiled bitterly and said, "A life for a life is the law of the earth. I only hope that you can persuade that lord to let my Tang Family live."
Tang Xuan knew better than Lan Si what kind of person Dao Master Qian Xuan was.
In her opinion, since she had killed this disciple, it was already inevitable that she would pay with her life. Even if Lan Si had Gu Nan behind her, would he be willing to offend a top-notch Dao Master for her?
Lan Si said resolutely, "No, I won't let you die!"
Before Tang Xuan could say anything, the disciples of Qian Xuan Dojo became agitated. One of them said, "Miss Lan, are you going to protect this murderer?"
"So it's because of Miss Lan. No wonder the Tang Family is so arrogant!"
"Heh, so what? He killed a disciple of Qian Xuan Dojo, so he naturally has to pay with his life. Even if this lawsuit is taken to the higher-ups, we will still be in the right. "
The undisguised discussion caused Lan Si's face to turn green and white.
"All of you, shut up!" Old Mister Pan frowned and shouted in a low voice. His disciple's excessive disrespect towards Lan Si gave him a bad premonition.
However, he had no intention of backing down. Not to mention the fact that he could not disappoint the disciples, just Lan Si's performance during this period of time was indeed not enough to earn his respect.
After he had ordered the disciples to retreat, he cupped his fists towards Lan Si and said, "Miss Lan, this person killed my disciple. If you want to protect this person, please give this old man an explanation."
Lan Si was stunned. What kind of explanation could she give?
She had to protect Tang Xuan, and Old Mister Pan did not seem to have any intention of backing down …
Thus, she hesitated for a moment. Finally, she could not help but take out a small pitch-black sword and began to call out to the owner of the small sword.
In the next moment, a black shadow gradually emerged from the small sword and formed into the shape of a human.
"Yes! That's it! "Dao Master Cang Lian could not help but exclaim in his heart when he saw this scene.
Faced with such a situation, Lan Si would definitely go back and find that person. However, even if it was that person, what could he do when faced with such a difficult situation?
At most, he could use his prestige to appease one side, but there would definitely be one side that would be dissatisfied.
On the other hand, no matter what the outcome was, this matter would not leave a good impression on that person, and Lan Si's impression of him would become more and more incompetent …
Moreover, Dao Master Cang Lian knew that if he was in that person's shoes, he would definitely stand on Old Mister Pan's side. After all, one side was a top-notch Dao Master, while the other side was just an unknown small family.
If that person wanted to control the mainland, he would have to consider the hearts of the people.
Qian Xuan Dojo was doing its best, if it did not achieve a good result, wouldn't it disappoint everyone?
The more he thought about it, the more certain Dao Master Cang Lian was of that person's actions. He could not help but smile, but fortunately, he quickly concealed it.
The black shadow slowly emerged from the small sword and condensed into the figure of Gu Nan. He looked coldly at the people around him.
Old Mister Pan was the first to bow and say, "My disciple died for no reason. Please seek justice for Qian Xuan Dojo, Sir."
At this moment, Du Chuan, who was behind Dao Master Cang Lian, gently crushed the talisman in his hand.
In the headquarters of the white mist on the mainland, two figures suddenly appeared. It was Luo Jie and Luo Fei. At this moment, Luo Jie looked excited.
