"Our He Family is being bullied by an outsider?"
"Third Brother, say something."
He Kui's second brother, He Qiong, was furious. His fourth brother, He Qing, had died for nothing, and the He Family had to compensate 400,000 blue crystals. He Kui, that coward, had given the triangular token to someone else because he could not fork out 400,000 blue crystals. That was a necessity to enter the Tri-Mountain Mystic Realm. He would not sell it even if he had money.
"Don't blame Third Brother. He has already done very well."
His eldest brother, He Qian, had a different view on this matter. Deputy City Lord Sun Wen had been there. If He Kui had resisted, the entire He Family might have been implicated. Therefore, losing money to avoid disaster was the best solution. Moreover, giving the triangular token was much better than paying 400,000 blue crystals.
He had heard that Du Feng had been firing at the watchtower on the city wall. That was simply burning money. He might have spent all 400,000 blue crystals and would not be able to get it back. However, the triangular token was different. As long as he killed the kid, he could get it back in minutes. Even if he could not kill Du Feng now, he would not be able to do so. He would have to go to the Tri-Mountain Mystic Realm after obtaining the triangular token.
The Tri-Mountain Mystic Realm was on the Tri-Mountain Island, which was in the East Sea where the sea demons gathered. If he wanted to go to the East Sea, he had to go to East Port City first and then board a large ship to reach the Tri-Mountain Island. Along the way, there were too many opportunities to kill him and take back the triangular token.
"Big Brother, I can't take this lying down."
He Qiong was still very unhappy. He could not wait for Du Feng to go to the Tri-Mountain Island. He wanted to kill him now.
"I have an idea, but I don't know if I should say it."
At this moment, someone interrupted. She was none other than He Qing's wife, Guo Lanlan. After He Qing was killed by Du Feng, she had immediately found her second brother, He Qiong. She cried in her second brother's room for more than an hour before coming out. She did not know how He Qiong comforted her, but she was no longer crying.
"Sister-in-law, if you have any good ideas, tell us quickly."
Hearing Guo Lanlan's words, He Qiong urged her to speak quickly.
"Isn't Du Feng in charge of defense in the outer city? Why don't we do this …"
What Guo Lanlan said next stunned He Kui and He Qian. Sure enough, a woman's heart was the most vicious. She even thought of such a method. Guo Lanlan's plan was to join forces with the demon cultivators and directly destroy the city walls of Stony Plain City. As long as the city walls fell, the outer city would fall. At that time, those who couldn't enter the inner city would all die.
As an outsider and one of the captains of the City Defense Team, Du Feng had to take the lead to fight against the demonic beasts. At that time, when the army of millions of demonic beasts attacked, there was absolutely no way for him to survive.
"I don't think that's a good idea. There are so many innocent people in the outer city …"
He Kui was usually quite ruthless, but after hearing this idea, he still hesitated. After all, this was Stony Plain City, and they would often go to the outer city. If they were really trampled by the demonic beasts, it would be a huge loss. Furthermore, the members of the inner city clans all had relatives in the outer city. If the demonic beasts rushed in, those people would also die.
"Third Brother, it's said that a great man can't be ruthless. Why are you not as good as a woman? Don't tell me that if we don't avenge Fourth Brother's death, we'll let him die in vain? "
Seeing that He Kui was hesitating, He Qiong started a fire at the side.
"What's your plan exactly? Tell me."
Big Brother He Qian could already tell that Guo Lanlan and He Qiong must have discussed it beforehand. Previously, he had heard that the relationship between the two of them was not normal. That silly guy, He Qing, thought that Second Brother was especially concerned about the two of them, but he didn't know that Second Brother was mainly concerned about his wife.
Now that He Qing was dead, Guo Lanlan didn't look for Big Brother to make the decision. Instead, she went to look for Second Brother. Now that the two of them said in unison that they wanted to avenge He Qing, it was enough to prove that the previous rumors were true. Thinking about it carefully, the residences of the four brothers. He Qian and He Kui were closer to each other, while He Qiong was closer to He Qing. After walking out of He Qing's house, they would reach the back door of He Qiong's house, which really made things convenient for them.
"There are demon cultivators from the West Continent among the Seven Kills. Big Brother should know about this, right?"
Although it was for Guo Lanlan to express her opinion, in the end, it was He Qiong who said it, because he was more knowledgeable about these things. The Seven Kills was the infamous assassin organization. They killed parents, children, brothers, confidants, women, widows and widows, and companions. As long as they paid enough, there was nothing they couldn't kill.
If it was an assassin organization with a bit of conscience, they would definitely not take on such a job that destroyed the city's defenses and killed innocent people. No matter how much money they had, they couldn't be so heartless. For the sake of cultivation resources, martial artists would fight each other to the death, and that was fine. However, when it came to the livelihood of the people, almost no one was willing to do it.
Yet, there was a perverted organization like the Seven Kills that was willing to take on missions that would go down in history. Moreover, their members were quite complicated. There were normal warriors, demon cultivators, demon cultivators, and even people from hermit families.
He Qiong's plan was to hire an assassin from the Seven Kills at a high price. He would order the demon beasts to attack Du Feng's location. When the time was right. Then, he would personally make a hole in the city wall. As long as there was this hole, the demon beast army behind would definitely not be able to stop them.
At that time, even if Du Feng managed to survive, the City Lord's Mansion would definitely punish him. Therefore, as long as the plan was successful, Du Feng would not be able to escape death.
"Mm, since that's the case, you'll be in charge of this. If you don't have enough money, you can come with me."
He Qian nodded after listening. This was indeed a good idea. As long as they controlled the timing, it wouldn't affect the inner city clans much. After the extermination of the outer city, there wouldn't be too many demon beasts left, and they wouldn't be able to break through the inner city's defenses.
Especially since the idea of framing Du Feng for dereliction of duty was too good. It would be hard for him not to die. Moreover, the outer city had been developing too fast these few years. Many people were starting to look down on the inner city clans. Things like the Qian Clan, who made a lot of money and came to the inner city, definitely couldn't happen again in the future.
Other than wanting to avenge his fourth brother, He Qing, He Qian obviously had a selfish motive. Fortunately, Guo Lanlan was the one who came up with such a vicious plan. Otherwise, he wouldn't have thought of it. His second brother, He Qiong, had probably been instigated by Guo Lanlan to think of hiring the Seven Kills.
"Brother, I have a favor to ask of you."
