Tan Xiu took Chen Zhizhong, Tang 28's group of five and soared into the air. Standing hundreds of meters in the air, he looked at the collapsed mountain peak and sighed inwardly.
The Diablo Praecantator Clan was truly pitiful.
The Sacred Pristine Palace was truly hateful.
The feud between the two sides from hundreds of thousands of years ago had completely come to an end along with the destruction of the pocket world and the collapse of this mountain peak. At present, there was only one big puzzle in Tan Xiu's mind. What kind of existence was Earth? Why were there so many strange spaces connected to the Earth?
However …
This puzzle had been in his mind for a long time, but he also knew that it would be very difficult for him to figure it out in a short time. Therefore, he no longer thought about it and quickly left Changbai Mountain with Chen Zhizhong, Tang 28, and the others. In addition, he separated from Chen Zhizhong halfway through the journey.
"Take care, Master. I'll be waiting for you in Star City. "
Chen Zhizhong was somewhat reluctant before parting. After the experience, he had developed deep feelings for Tan Xiu and regarded Tan Xiu as his Master.
"I won't be staying in the Imperial Capital for a long time," said Tan Xiu with a smile. "Hurry up and solve your business issues. I'll take you to Nine Dragons Island when I go back. "
"Understood!"
Chen Zhizhong replied and quickly left.
At the Imperial Capital.
It was the first time for Tang 28's group of five to come here. They all knew that the Imperial Capital was the capital of China and one of the most prosperous metropolises in the country. Therefore, even though they were much more mature than their peers, they were still a bit curious.
"Where are we going, Sect Master?"
Asked Tang 28 curiously after coming out of the airport with Tan Xiu.
"Don't ask this kind of question again in the future," said Tan Xiu. "You're to follow me wherever I go. Remember, you'll be my shadow in the future, and the four of you will be Tang 28's shadows. You must learn to be silent and execute my orders if you want to follow me. "
Tang 28's group of five hurriedly nodded and dared not speak again.
Tan Xiu came to the capital this time for Tang Guosheng's 80th birthday. If he was still abroad, it would have been fine if he couldn't make it back in time. Since he was already back in the country and it was on the way, he decided to stay in the capital for a while to celebrate with the old master.
After getting on the taxi, Tan Xiu told the driver the address of the Tang family's residence. A strange expression appeared on the driver's face as he said, "Little Brother, you're not from the Imperial Capital, are you? In the past few days, martial law had been imposed over there. Even if I send you there, I won't be able to reach the address you gave me. We can only, park nearby. "
Tan Xiu asked in surprise, "Why is there a martial law?"
The taxi driver said mysteriously, "Little brother, you are an outsider. I'm afraid you don't know! Tomorrow was Elder Tang's 80th birthday. The Tang family has always been very low-key in the past, but it's different this time. The Tang family is getting more and more powerful. It just so happens that the Tang family has something to do with the 80th birthday of their old master, so the Tang family is preparing to hold a big celebration. Several streets in the vicinity are under martial law to avoid any troublemakers. It's fine during the day, but after 10 PM, the surrounding roads will be blocked and all vehicles are prohibited from approaching. "
"This Tang family seems to be very famous!" Tan Xiu nodded.
The taxi driver gave Tan Xiu a "don't talk nonsense if you don't know" look. After starting the car, he said while driving, "Little Brother, who in the capital doesn't know about the Tang family? Even in China, anyone with some ability knows about Tan Xiu's existence. Elder Tang used to be a senior statesman of our country, a real big shot, and a former Great General. Also, haven't you heard that the Tang family's arch-enemy, the Yao family, fell inexplicably last year? The current Tang family may not be the first or second in the capital, but they're definitely in the top three. "
"So powerful?"
Asked Tan Xiu with a faint smile.
The taxi driver didn't pay attention to Tan Xiu's expression. He held the steering wheel and looked at the road ahead. He nodded and said, "Of course they're powerful. It's a pity that I didn't reincarnate into this family. Otherwise, I would be able to live like an Emperor if I were a member of the Tang family. You don't know, but the status of the Tang family's members in the capital is simply ridiculously high. Some time ago, a young master of the Tang family called Tang Wei smashed the famous Paradise Charm Club in the capital. The scene was very big. What was the result? Nothing happened to Young Master Tang Wei, but the Paradise Charm Club's owner, as well as those silk pants Young Masters who offended Young Master Tang Wei, bowed and apologized. I heard that they even compensated Young Master Tang Wei with a lot of money. "
Tang Wei?
Tan Xiu was at a loss whether he had to cry or laugh. He didn't expect that Tang Wei would cause such a big mess. Even if he got the upper hand in that matter, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to avoid being cleaned up after he returned home. It was because the elders of the Tang family had issued a death order that the Tang family's juniors must never be like those silk pants Young Masters who caused trouble outside.
I'm afraid this guy hasn't been having a good time recently.
Tang Xiu thought with a gloating expression.
Half an hour later.
When the taxi drove in the downtown area and just got off from an overpass, the road ahead was congested.
"Why is Qingfeng Road blocked again? Is there a traffic accident ahead? "The taxi driver asked through the walkie-talkie and quickly got a reply.
"It's a traffic accident. Moreover, it's like a movie with several cars chasing and killing each other. It seems that more than a dozen people have died. It's been a long time since such a big mess has appeared in the capital. Brother, you're very unlucky. If you're stuck on Qingfeng Road, you better pray for your luck. I'm afraid that it won't be possible to clear the road for a few hours. "
"Who's so bold?" asked the taxi driver hurriedly. "They actually dare to cause such a big commotion in the capital? And so many people have died? Aren't they afraid of suffering a big misfortune under the feet of the Emperor?! "
"I don't know about the specifics."
"Alright!"
As the call ended, the taxi driver looked at Tan Xiu in the front seat and forced a smile, "I'm afraid we'll be stuck here for a long time, Little Brother. It's impossible for us to turn around now. You can get off now and take the subway if you're in a hurry. "
Tan Xiu pondered for a moment. Then, he took out 200 yuan from his pocket and handed it to the taxi driver, saying, "Let's get off here, Master! Please take the money and keep the change. "
The taxi driver didn't expect that Tan Xiu would be so generous and hurriedly said, "I don't need so much, Little Brother. I don't need even one."
Tan Xiu pushed the door open and waved his hand with a smile. He then led Tang 28's group of five to the roadside and walked forward along the road. He could clearly hear the conversation between the taxi driver and the others through the walkie-talkie. He was very curious about who was so bold to cause such a big commotion in the downtown area.
Ten minutes later.
Tan Xiu and the others appeared near the scene of the accident. It was a spacious intersection, but more than a dozen cars had crashed into each other, creating a mess on the ground. A large number of rescue workers were treating the injured and lifting the corpses from the vehicles, causing Tan Xiu to furrow his brows.
"What happened, Big Brother?"
Asked Tan Xiu as he approached a middle-aged man who kept sighing and handed him a cigarette.
"What a sin!" The middle-aged man forced a smile. "I don't know how some men offended Second Fan. That fella brought a large number of people and drove more than a dozen cars to chase them. As a result, this series of car accidents happened. Sigh, it seems like three of the men died, and the last one ran away with injuries. Second Brother Fan actually didn't let him go. He brought a large group of people and chased after them. He didn't even say to save the people who got involved in the accident first. "
"Who's Second Fan?" asked Tan Xiu with a frown.
The middle-aged man glanced at Tan Xiu and asked, "Little Brother, you don't sound like a local from your accent, do you? You don't even know who Second Fan is? "
"I really don't know." Tan Xiu shook his head. "I'm from Star City and just arrived in the Imperial Capital today."
"No wonder." The middle-aged man nodded. "Second Fan is the son of the Fan Family's Patriarch in the Imperial Capital. Although no one from the Fan Family is involved in politics, it's a very famous and wealthy family. Do you know the Sky Pigeon Group, one of the top 500 companies in the world? That's the Fan Family's company. The Fan Family's reputation in the Imperial Capital has never been good. Now that Second Fan has stirred up such a big mess, I'm afraid their reputation has become even worse. Alas, if I had such a good-for-nothing son like Second Fan, I would've broken his legs and chained him at home with an iron chain, so that he wouldn't go out and court disasters and troubles. "
Tan Xiu nodded and curiously asked, "Then, where are they going now?"
"How would I know? A large group of people chased after them, while one person ran away. God knows where they are now. "
"You don't even know which direction they went?" asked Tan Xiu.
The middle-aged man pointed to the northeast and said, "I know. Over there. But don't think about joining in the fun at this time, Little Brother. It won't be fun if the God of Misfortune bumps into you and gets you involved. Young man! Don't be so curious. "
"Thank you, Big Brother." Tan Xiu said with a smile.
Immediately after …
Tan Xiu took Tang 28's group of five and quickly rushed to the northeast. He wouldn't have cared if he didn't bump into them. But now that he encountered this matter, he wanted to figure out what was going on. He had heard of the Fan Family, but he didn't have any dealings with them. However, the one who had dealings with this family was a friend of his, Qin Shaoyang.
Tan Xiu heard from Qin Shaoyang that the Fan Family's Eldest Brother was his sworn brother. He also planned to introduce him to Tan Xiu when he had the time. The most important thing was that some of the Fan Family's businesses were in a cooperative relationship with the Qin Family. Once something happened to the Fan Family, the Qin Family's influence would be greatly affected.
"Hello, Shaoyang. Did you hear about the big mess the Fan Family's Second Fan Family made?" Tan Xiu dialed Qin Shaoyang's number on the way to the northeast.
"I heard about it. I got the news ten minutes ago," said Qin Shaoyang hurriedly. This damned Second Brother Fan was simply too audacious. He caused a big trouble this time, and I'm afraid the whole Fan Family will be dragged into it. I'm at home now, talking to my father about the business with the Fan Family. Alas, I'm afraid our family will also suffer some losses. "
