"We also wanted to send stronger people to kill them, but the employer asked us to keep a low profile. So, we sent weaker people. We'll see if it doesn't work," the middle-aged man said with a bitter smile.
In fact, if it weren't for that, this might not have happened.
So, he naturally regretted it.
"I see." Linlong and the others understood, but they didn't know why the employer wanted to keep a low profile.
"Are the people from the Lan Family in Dingxi City?" Linlong asked.
"No, the people from the Lan Family are not in Dingxi City." The man shook his head.
"Oh, then where are they?" Linlong asked again.
The reason he asked this was naturally because he wanted to know why the other party wanted to kill Chun Mei's father.
If he knew this, he might be able to help Chun Mei's father return to normal. Based on his experience, he could tell that Chun Mei's father had gone crazy because he had been stimulated. If he knew the reason, he should be able to help him return to normal.
"I saw them in Lanxing City. They might have left Lanxing City a long time ago," the middle-aged man said.
"That can't be right. The other party should have left someone in Dingxi City to see if you can complete the mission, right?" Lu Jing said doubtfully.
"I don't know about that. We just want to complete the mission and don't care about anything else." The middle-aged man shook his head.
"In that case, Lu Jing, tell the people from the major families to search carefully and see if there are any people from the Lan Family in Dingxi City," Linlong said to Lu Jing after hearing the middle-aged man's words.
"Yes!" Lu Jing nodded immediately and then left to pass on the order.
…
At the same time, in the Fang Clan of Orchid Thriving City, a person ran hastily to the Patriarch, and then he said while gasping for breath, "Patriarch, it's bad! The Eldest Young Master and the people that the Eldest Young Master brought to Ding Xi City have been captured!"
"What? Who has the guts to capture people from the Fang Family? "Hearing this, the family head of the Fang Family who was in his fifties immediately had an ugly expression.
With the Fang Family's strength, how could his expression not be ugly when someone dared to capture people from the Fang Family?
"It's the Lu Family, Guo Family, Liu Family, and Shi Family of Dingxi City!" The person in front of him said.
"What?" After hearing this, the Fang Family's Patriarch couldn't help but widen his eyes. It must be known that three of the families mentioned were major powers in Ding Xi City.
"It was the people from these four families who captured our Fang family," the man explained.
"From what you're saying, the four families have joined forces?" Fang Family's Family Head frowned.
"Yes."
"However, why did the four great clans join forces? Why did they attack our Fang Clan alone?" The head of the Fang Family couldn't understand. According to his understanding, the Guo Family and the Lu Family didn't have a good relationship. Even if they had a good relationship, it wasn't possible for them to suddenly join forces.
"It's because Eldest Young Master sent Elder Fang Sheng to find trouble with the Tranquil Spirit Pill Shop, which angered the other party. Many people from the other four families came at once, and Eldest Young Master and the others were no match for them. They were all captured by the other party … As for why they joined forces, I don't know." The man said.
The members of the Fang Clan in Dingxi City had all been captured, and there was no information at all. How could he know why?
"Summon all the Elders immediately!" The Fang Family's Patriarch said with an ashen face.
"Yes!" The man hurried out.
Soon, all the Fang Family's Elders had gathered in the main hall of the Fang Clan. Most of them had grave expressions. It was obvious that they already knew the news.
Seeing that everyone had basically arrived, the Fang Clan's Patriarch said in a deep voice, "Elders, the people we sent to Ding Xi City were all captured by the combined forces of the Lu Clan, Guo Clan, Shi Clan, and Liu Clan. Do you know why?"
"What? Our people were captured by the four families? "Some people who still didn't know what had happened immediately cried out.
"Yes." The Fang Family's Patriarch nodded heavily.
"Why did the four families join forces? Why did they capture our people?" Someone couldn't help but ask.
"I don't know why they joined forces. As for why they captured our people, it was because Zhenhan sent Elder Fang Sheng to find trouble with the Tranquil Spirit Pill Shop. Then, the other party sent a large group of people to capture our people." The Fang Family's Patriarch said.
"That's right. That's what happened. Moreover, it wasn't as simple as capturing them. At that time, the other party even humiliated Eldest Young Master and beat him up in front of everyone!" An Elder suddenly said.
"Is this true?" The Fang Family's Patriarch's expression turned even uglier. Previously, the person who reported the news didn't mention this.
"It's true, Patriarch." The Elder replied.
After confirming this, the Fang Family's Patriarch clenched his fists.
"This is too much. They are clearly looking down on our Fang Family!"
"Damn it. Patriarch, let's kill our way to Dingxi City right now and let those four Patriarchs know how powerful our Fang Family is!"
"I also want to beat the four Patriarchs in front of everyone until their faces are swollen!"
In an instant, all the elders cursed angrily.
"Everyone, don't be impulsive. The other party is an alliance of four families. It's not something we can deal with!" Seeing that everyone was so impulsive, an Elder hurriedly said.
The Fang Family's Patriarch, who had calmed down, also said. "Yes, Elder Fang Wei is right. The other party is much stronger than us. It's not something we can deal with right now. So, don't be impulsive!"
"Patriarch, are we going to let them bully us like this?!"
"Moreover, Eldest Young Master and the others are still in their hands!"
Two Elders couldn't help but say this.
"Of course we can't just sit and wait for death!" The Fang Family's Patriarch said coldly.
Seeing the Fang Family's Patriarch's expression, an Elder couldn't help but ask, "Patriarch, do you have a way?"
"Of course I have a way. Do you remember the expert who can activate the third-grade icy talisman that I went to persuade?" The Fang Family's Patriarch said.
Several Elders nodded and said, "I remember."
"But didn't he reject us?" An Elder asked doubtfully.
Fang Zhenhan didn't know about such a rejection, so he said it in front of Lin Long and the others.
"There's a reason why he rejected us. But don't worry, I'll look for him later. This time, I'm confident that I can make him join our Fang Family. This way, we'll have a chance to deal with those families in Dingxi City!" The Fang Family's Patriarch said.
"Then we'll have to trouble the Patriarch!" The surrounding people breathed a sigh of relief.
"There's no time to lose. I'll set off now!" The Fang Family's Patriarch said.
"Patriarch, is it possible for someone to accompany you?" An elder asked.
"There's no need. I can go by myself," the Fang Family's Patriarch said.
After saying that, the Fang Family's Patriarch asked everyone to leave. Then, he didn't directly leave the Fang Family's courtyard. Instead, he walked to the front of a room in the courtyard.
After hesitating for a moment, he sighed and walked to the door of the room. He knocked on the door.
"Who is it?" A pleasant female voice came from inside.
"Le 'er, it's me," the Fang Family's Patriarch said.
"So it's father." Hearing this, the female inside said. Soon, the door was opened, revealing a beautiful little face.
It was a young girl who seemed to be 17 or 18 years old.
"Father, why do you look so pale?" The young girl couldn't help but ask when she saw the Fang Family's Patriarch.
The Fang Family's Patriarch didn't reply. Instead, he said, "Le 'er, do you remember that Uncle Yu you met three months ago?"
"Uncle Yu?" Hearing the Fang Family's Patriarch's words, the young girl's expression couldn't help but change. Then, she said, "Le 'er remembers. But why did father suddenly mention him?"
She remembered the scene clearly. That Uncle Yu was her father's friend. He looked a few years older than her father.
However, what she didn't expect was that when her father asked her to meet the guest, that Uncle Yu actually stared at her and said that he wanted to marry her as a concubine.
At that time, she was shocked. She was the young mistress of the Fang Family. How could she marry someone who was even older than her father?
Therefore, she didn't care about her father at all and directly rejected him. Then, she ran away without looking back.
Later on, she heard that that person lost his temper on the spot and directly split the table in front of him into two. Her father could only put on a smile.
Later on, she found out the reason. It turned out that this Uncle Yu was actually an expert who could activate a Grade 3 Ice Talisman.
Because of this, her father didn't give him any face.
However, because of the Fang Family's strength, the other party didn't persist. In the end, the matter was left unsettled.
Now that she suddenly heard her father mention it, her expression naturally became ugly.
"Le 'er, father wants to bring you to see him. Moreover, it's time for you to get married," the Fang Family's Patriarch said with a sigh.
"Father, could it be that you want me to marry him?" The young girl's face immediately became pale and her voice was already trembling.
"Le 'er, to tell you the truth, our Fang Family needs his help, so …" the Fang Family's Patriarch said.
"No, Le 'er will not marry him!" The young girl gritted her teeth and said.
"Le 'er, there is something I must tell you. Your big brother and the people he brought to Ding Xi City have all been captured," the Fang Family's Patriarch said as he looked at the young girl.
"Big brother has been captured? Who in Ding Xi City would be so daring? "The young girl said in surprise.
She understood the forces in Ding Xi City. She knew that even the strongest family in Ding Xi City couldn't compare to the Fang Family.
"The four families in Ding Xi City have joined forces. Because of this, they are fearless and directly captured the people of our Fang Family," the Fang Family's Patriarch said.
"The four families have joined forces? How is that possible? "The young girl was surprised again.
"I also can't figure out why, but it has happened. Moreover, they have already captured your big brother and the others. Our Fang Family is no match for them, so I can only ask Su Yu for help. After all, he is an expert who can activate the Grade 3 Ice Talisman. Even if he can't defeat those families, it will be a piece of cake for him to get them to release their people," the Fang Family's Patriarch said.
After a slight pause, he added, "I have a good relationship with Su Yu. Originally, he wanted to join our Su Family, but after seeing you that day, he said that if you don't marry him, he won't help our Fang Family … So, at this time, I thought of you."
With that, the Fang Family's Patriarch shifted his gaze to the young girl's face.
"Father … Let me think about it …" The young girl clenched her teeth and then gently closed the door.
In just a short while, the closed door opened, revealing the young girl's delicate and pretty face. At this moment, she looked extremely determined. She looked at the Fang Family's Patriarch and said, "Father, you can bring me to see him!"
Hearing her words, the Fang Family's Patriarch revealed a trace of joy on his face. Then, he nodded and said, "Le 'er, it has been hard on you."
The next morning, the Fang Family's Patriarch directly brought the young girl out of the Fang Family's residence and walked towards the east of Lan Xing City.
Not long after, the two of them arrived at the peak of a tall mountain in the east of Lan Xing City. There was a courtyard here.
Seeing the two people guarding outside the courtyard, the Fang Family's Patriarch directly said, "Tell your master that the Fang Family's Patriarch is looking for him."
"Fang Family's Patriarch, please wait a moment," one of the two immediately said.
They had seen the Fang Family's Patriarch before and naturally knew that the person in front of them was the real Fang Family's Patriarch.
With that said, one of them immediately walked in. Soon, he walked out again and said to the Fang Family's Patriarch. "Both of you, follow me."
Immediately, he led the two of them in. After leading them to the inside of the hall, he said, "Both of you wait here for a moment. Master will be here soon."
Not long after the Fang Family's Patriarch and the Fang Family's Patriarch sat down, an old man who looked even older than the Fang Family's Patriarch walked in from outside.
Looking at the Fang Family's Patriarch and the Fang Family's Patriarch, the old man revealed a trace of a complacent smile. Even though it disappeared in a flash, the Fang Family's Patriarch and the Fang Family's Patriarch saw it clearly.
This person was Su Yu.
"Feiming, you are finally willing to look for an old friend like me." Su Yu looked at the Fang Family's Patriarch and said with a smile.
Then, his eyes turned to the young girl, Le 'er, and he seemed somewhat unrestrained.
The Fang Family's Patriarch's expression made Le 'er lower her head.
"The Fang Family has encountered some trouble, so I wanted to ask for your help." The Fang Family's Patriarch went straight to the point.
"Oh, what's the matter?" Su Yu asked.
"I asked Zhenhan to bring some people to Ding Xi City, but they were captured," the Fang Family's Patriarch said.
"There aren't any major powers in Ding Xi City. Who would dare to do such a thing? Aren't they afraid that your Fang Family will cause trouble for them?" Su Yu asked doubtfully.
"It's the Lu Family, the Guo Family, the Shi Family, and the Liu Family. They have joined forces, so they don't care about our Fang Family," the Fang Family's Patriarch said.
"That's strange. Why would they join forces?" Su Yu asked with a puzzled expression.
"I don't know about that …" The Fang Family's Patriarch shook his head. "In short, our Fang Family has no way of dealing with them, so we can only ask for your help."
"I can help you, but do you still remember Feiming that I mentioned before?" As he spoke, Su Yu's gaze shifted to Le 'er's face.
This beauty was getting more and more beautiful. This thought flashed in his mind.
He didn't know why, but he was attracted to the young girl in front of him. Therefore, when he first saw her, he had already made up his mind to obtain her.
He even planned to cause trouble for the Fang Family so that they would have no choice but to look for him. Who would have thought that the Fang Family would encounter trouble so quickly?
The Heavens are really on my side! He smiled proudly in his heart.
