Early the next morning, Zhao Qi brought Wei Zhang to the Shen Family.
Seeing Zhao Qi's arrival, Shen Wuming was surprised. He knew the status of the Shen Family. As a senior official, Zhao Qi was definitely not here just for a visit.
Immediately after, Shen Wu Ming went forward with a face full of smiles and said respectfully, "Lord Commander has come to visit. Wu Ming did not go out to welcome you. Please forgive me."
Zhao Qi nodded slightly and walked into the hall with his hands behind his back. He sat on the main seat expressionlessly and said slowly, "Shen Family head, is your son in the mansion?"
Shen Wuming's expression changed, and then he said, "Lang 'er is indeed in the mansion. May I know why Commander is looking for Lang' er?"
"Impudent! Lord Commander is looking for Shen Lang, so you should just bring him here. Is there anything you should be asking about?"
Wei Zhang rebuked him angrily.
The senior officials of the Shen Family standing behind Shen Wuming changed their expressions. Looking at Wei Zhang's attitude, Zhao Qi really came with bad intentions.
"I don't dare," Shen Wuming immediately ordered a deacon of the Shen Family to call Shen Lang with an ugly expression.
At this time, Shen Lang was practicing swordsmanship in the yard. Gao Jianli and Kim No-myung stood beside him and occasionally pointed out the shortcomings of Shen Lang's swordsmanship. Although Shen Lang had a better understanding of swordsmanship with the help of the system, he did not think that his swordsmanship had reached the peak.
Martial arts were broad and profound. Even the masters who had reached the Immortal Martial Arts Realm did not dare to say that they had reached the peak of martial arts. Therefore, Shen Lang did not think that he did not need other people's guidance.
The deacon came to Shen Lang's yard and said respectfully, "Young Master, Master wants to see you."
"What's the matter?"
Shen Lang asked in a calm tone while waving the black sword in his hand.
"Commander Zhao Qi brought Wei Zhang to the mansion and asked to see you."
The deacon said in a deep voice.
Weng!
The stone table in the courtyard was cut in half by Shenlang's sword. Then, Shenlang frowned and said, "Oh! Zhao Qi is here? "
"Interesting. It seems that Zhao Qi has received some news."
Shenlang thought as he put the black sword back into the weapon box.
Shenlang wasn't surprised at Zhao Qi's arrival. Ever since he saw Zhao Qi in the competition, Shenlang knew that Zhao Qi would come to him sooner or later.
If Shenlang was the man in black, he would definitely reveal the fact that he had obtained the map of Changchun's death. Knowing that he could not get the map back from Shenlang's hands, he would definitely use someone else to do the dirty work. However, he did it earlier than Shenlang expected.
"Let's go. Let's meet Commander Zhao Qi."
Gao Jianli and Jin Wuming followed behind Shen Lang, one on the left and one on the right. They walked towards the Shen Family's main hall.
As soon as they arrived at the hall, Shenlang felt a strange aura. Zhao Qi was sitting on the main seat. Wei Zhang was standing behind Zhao Qi with a cold expression. Shen Wuming and the others were standing below with serious expressions.
Shenlang first bowed to Shen Wuming, and then cupped his hands to Zhao Qi and said, "I'm Shenlang. Nice to meet you, Commander."
Zhao Qi glanced at Shenlang indifferently and said, "Shenlang, do you know why I'm looking for you?"
Shenlang remained calm and said indifferently, "I don't know. Please tell me, Commander."
"Shenlang, I've received information that you got that thing?"
As Zhao Qi finished speaking, a faintly discernible pressure filled the entire hall.
Shen Wuming and the others' expressions changed. They looked at Zhao Qi vigilantly.
However, Shenlang seemed not to feel it. He said calmly, "I really don't know what you're talking about."
At this time, Wei Zhang, who was behind Zhao Qi, saw Shenlang's ignorant look and shouted angrily, "Shenlang, don't think that we can't do anything to you if you pretend that you don't know anything. The small Shen Family can't protect you. If you don't hand over the thing, I'm afraid it will bring disaster to your Shen Family."
Wei Zhang's words immediately shrouded the entire Shen family's main hall in a state of mutual hostility.
Shenlang narrowed his eyes and looked at Wei Zhang expressionlessly. He said coldly, "Castellan Wei, be careful. Our Shen Family is nothing in the eyes of the imperial court, but our Shen Family is not easy to deal with. You're not qualified to be a Castellan."
Swish!
As soon as Shenlang's voice fell, two soaring Sword Essences pointed at Wei Zhang. Wei Zhang groaned and involuntarily took a step back. A trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. He looked at Gao Jianli and Kim No-myung behind Shenlang in horror.
Wei Zhang's strength was not weak. He was at the peak of the late stage of the Innate Realm, but that was all. He could only retreat in front of the momentum of Gao Jianli and Kim No-myung.
Zhao Qi, who was sitting there, narrowed his eyes and looked at Shenlang, who was standing there proudly. Before coming here, Zhao Qi was still hesitating whether Shenlang had the map or not. But now, looking at Shenlang's posture, he was 100% sure.
However, Zhao Qi was not a brainless person. Combined with the information last night, Zhao Qi knew that someone was instigating the conflict between him and Shenlang. There was no need to guess the rest. It must be the Star Pavilion.
Now, Zhao Qi, Shenlang, and the Star Pavilion had formed a subtle situation. It was like a tripartite balance. No matter which side had a conflict, the last side would be the winner. Then Zhao Qi suppressed the angry Wei Zhang and said slowly, "Shenlang, since you have such strength, I won't beat around the bush. How about we cooperate?"
"After finding the place where Changchun died, if there is really an ancient cultivation method, I'll let you copy it. As for the original, I'll take it back to the imperial court."
Shen Lang took a deep look at Zhao Qi. "Commander, since you've said so, I won't hide it anymore. Let's do it this way. However, there's only half of the map. I hope Commander can find the other half."
"Okay, don't worry. With the imperial court's information, I believe it won't take too long."
Then Zhao Qi stood up and left with Wei Zhang, whose face was ugly.
On the way, Wei Zhang said angrily, "Commander, Shenlang has already admitted it. Why don't you take him down? Why do you want to cooperate with him?"
Zhao Qi glanced at Wei Zhang with an expressionless face, then said indifferently, "City Lord Wei, do I need to report to you when doing something?"
Wei Zhang's expression changed. When Zhao Qi looked at him just now, he felt the killing intent. He knew that he had lost his mind because of Shenlang. In the officialdom, Wei Zhang committed a big taboo, which was to question the orders of his superior. If his superior was a narrow-minded person, he would definitely suffer in the future.
Immediately, Wei Zhang hurriedly saluted and said with cold sweat on his forehead, "I don't dare."
Zhao Qi said lightly with his hands behind his back, "Shenlang is not simple. I just felt an aura in the Shen Family. That aura was not weaker than mine. If we had taken action at that time, I'm afraid it would have been very difficult for us to win."
"What?"
"There is an expert in the Transformation Void Martial Stage in the Shen Family?"
Wei Zhang said in surprise.
"Could it be that Shen Kun has made a breakthrough?"
"No, that person's aura is very fierce. It shouldn't be Shen Kun."
Zhao Qi said.
