After listening to Hong Xiu's report, Li Muyang fell into silence.
After a long while, he said aloud, "He was implicated by me, which led to today's result — — Last time in the Divine Palace, in order to protect me, he publicly severed his relationship with Yan Bolai. That was a hidden danger. This time, he risked his life to save me, and was almost killed by Song Fuxiao. In this era where everyone wants to slay a dragon, he is still willing to stand on my side — — it is too rare and too difficult. "
"Gongzi, a friend in need is a friend indeed. It is a great blessing in life for Gongzi to have such a close friend. I think, when Gongzi Xiangma made such a decision, he certainly did not have any selfish motives, but just wanted to fight for a chance of survival for his friend. "
"Yes. If he hadn't helped me this time, my whereabouts would have been exposed — — there would be no hope for revenge, and I would have to suffer from endless pursuit. What's worse is that Xiaoxin's situation would have become dangerous. Even if she was lucky enough to survive, the servants around her would most likely be tortured. At that time, if they were tortured and said my relationship with the silk shop, then your whereabouts would be exposed, and the Song clan and the Monitoring Division would catch all the spies that the Lu clan left in Tiandu. Such a loss would be too heavy. "
Hong Xiu nodded. "That's true, we also owe Gongzi Xiangma a favour."
"Do you know where he went?" Li Muyang asked.
"After receiving the news, I immediately rushed to the Yan residence. After I arrived, it is said that Gongzi Xiangma had left for a long time — — No one knows where he went, it is said that he disappeared after leaving the Yan residence. Now the news that Gongzi Xiangma was expelled from the Yan family has spread throughout Tiandu, Gongzi Xiangma must be very upset — — "
"The Song family's power is monstrous, it should make some people vigilant, right?" The corners of Li Muyang's mouth curved in a cold smile.
"For thousands of years, the Song family has been the number one family of West Wind. But they are too good at disguising themselves. They have always regarded themselves as scholars, and have the title of 'Imperial Library'. However, what the outside world did not know was that not only were they well-read, their ability to cultivate and break through realms was also not weak. The Song family's Great Light Technique was one of the top techniques in China. Moreover, they control the government, and even have the power to select and use officials that only the emperor has … They also have a huge hidden power in the military. Although they are not as dazzling as your Lu family, which is known as the number one family in the military. However, it is also because of this name that the Lu Corporation has been criticized and questioned by the people. They say that the Lu Corporation has the intention to rebel and is constantly being impeached and attacked by the imperial censors … If it were not for the High Duke's tyrannical handling of matters and superior wisdom, I'm afraid that the Lu Corporation would have been dismembered by them. "
"The people of the Song enterprise are extremely low-key. Except when Lu Xingkong stepped into the Starry Sky Realm and the incense array was all over the sky, the Song family did things in a low-key manner. Moreover, many of the things that could attract criticism were carried out through the hands of outsiders. For example, the last time Gongzi was assassinated in Tiandu, wasn't it the Still water sword school that acted as the sword in the hands of the Song family? Mu Dingyi sacrificed his blood to the sword, and although Mu Yubai's swordsmanship has improved after experiencing the great calamity, but the strength of the Still water sword school has still fallen. The more it is like this, the more they will be manipulated by the Song family. Otherwise, they will be torn apart and disintegrated in minutes. "
"He has power and a good reputation in the mouths of the people. The matter of Song Gudu personally brewing medicinal soup for his granddaughter is also talked about by the world, and is called a loving elder. In the face of such an opponent, it really makes people restless and helpless — — The Yan family expelled Gongzi Xiangma from the family. On the surface, it looks like the Yan family is afraid of the power of the Song family, so they chose to endure humiliation. But, in the eyes of outsiders, the Song family is still somewhat arrogant and domineering. A servant can make the top family of Tiandu send away their direct descendant — — "
"But, this is just a superficial matter, even if the Song family is a little unhappy, it will not affect the overall situation of Tiandu. If Gongzi wants to kill with a borrowed knife, it will not be easy to carry out. "
"The Song family is very powerful, but I'm not going to let them go. Even if I don't want to destroy the human race, can I destroy the Song clan? "Li Muyang said in a low voice. "At any cost, you must find Yan Xiangma. Otherwise, I'm afraid he will be in danger outside — — "
"Yes." Hong Xiu's eyes flashed, bowing in agreement.

"Good. What a good Yan family, this slap is really loud and beautiful. "A middle-aged man with white hair and red eyes thundered.
This person was the General of the Song family, Song Yu. Song Yu was born with a strange phenomenon. When he was born, his pupils were red. Moreover, he had a head of white hair, and when he was a child, he wandered through the streets of Tiandu with a head of white hair. However, no one had ever dared to point at his unusual appearance. One reason was that he was afraid of the power of the Song family, and was worried that the Song family would retaliate. And the most important point was that Song Yu's character was violent and extremely fond of killing. There was once a censor's daughter who cried out in fear when she saw him. He actually tore the censor's daughter apart in the street.
Later, in order to settle this matter, the Song family sent Song Yu to the Iron Gate Pass to join the army, and the censor was transferred to a wealthy city to become the governor. This was considered as compensation to the censor's family by the Song family. More than a decade later, the censor's entire family was killed because he offended Red Boy, the great thief of the ocean.
Song Yu, on the other hand, profited from his misfortune. His personality was extremely suitable for mixing around in the army. In just over twenty years of effort, he had forcefully risen from a small soldier to a great general. He had many fierce generals under his command, and three hundred thousand soldiers. It was the core force of the Lu enterprise in the military, and also the iron army that could most threaten the Lu enterprise.
Unexpectedly, General Song Yu was not guarding the Iron Gate Pass at this time. Instead, he was not summoned by the emperor and quietly returned to Tiandu.
"General, it's all my incompetence. I ruined the general's plan. " Song Fuxiao stood respectfully in front of Song Yu and said in a low voice, "If I had been merciful, the Yan family would not have fought back so fiercely."
"Humph, you didn't kill Yan Xiangma because you know when to advance and when to retreat. You are giving face to the Yan family … Now that they dare to turn against us, it means that they are not willing to accept us as a good friend. If that's the case, it would be better to kill Yan Xiangma — — "
"General, even if you don't care about the Yan family's counterattack, you still have to be cautious about the Cui family's attitude … Now the old immortal also needs the Cui family's support in all aspects. After all, after the collapse of the Lu enterprise, the Song family will be exposed in front of everyone. I think the old immortal will be under a lot more pressure. "Song Fuxiao comforted.
Song Yu was silent for a while and said coldly, "Yes. We have to be patient for now … The old man taught us that the higher we stand at the top of the mountain, the more we have to speak softly. Shouting will only bring harsh echoes. The Yan family expelled Yan Xiangma from the family. On the surface, it was to give face to the Song family, but in fact, it was to show the whole Tiandu — — to let the people of Tiandu know that the Song family is now extremely powerful. In that case, some people will try to please them because of fear, but more people will alienate them because of scruples. Also, although the Song family has an excellent reputation among the public, but if the public knows that the Song family has the intention of rebelling, their thousand-year reputation will be destroyed. Therefore, the Song family supported Prince Fu to ascend the throne as the new Emperor. From the outside, it seemed that the Song family was still loyal to the Chu royal family … As for the death of the late Emperor, it was the evil deed of Lu Xingkong. Our Song family is a loyal and conscientious official who protects the country. But now the Cui family's attitude has become ambiguous, and the Yan family dared to use such a self-harming method to slander the Song family's reputation — — If I don't get revenge, I won't be able to sleep or eat in peace. "
"What does General mean?" Song Fuxiao asked with a small smile.
Song Yu's red eyes were even redder, as though they were bloodshot. He looked at Song Fuxiao and said, "Later, you will go to the Yan family to apologise, beg for forgiveness, and cry for them to bring Yan Xiangma back."
"General?" Song Fuxiao looked at Song Yu in astonishment. This was clearly not in line with the General's style of doing things. He was a vengeful person.
"Didn't that Yan Xiangma disappear after he went out? Send someone to find him and kill him — — "Song Yu said fiercely." Whoever dares to slap the Song family's face, I will kill their people. "
"Yes, General." Song Fuxiao said without hesitation. He knew that this was the real thought of the General.
Song Yu sighed softly. "I have been back for a few days, I have always wanted to visit the Old Master, but I couldn't get in — — Did the Old Master summon me back at this time to make some preparations for the Peacock Imperial Court's Note of the Nine Nations?"
"Old immortal's mind is difficult to guess. However, General's guess is not unreasonable. The main defense of the Iron Gate Pass is the Peacock Imperial Court and the Black Flame Imperial Court. The Nine Nations Note of the Nine Nations will be held in the middle of next month, so it is understandable for Old immortal to make some arrangements in advance. "
"But why did the Old Master keep refusing my visit? He called me back from so far away, but he doesn't want to see me — — Even if he has something in mind, he should have told me in advance, shouldn't he? I don't think I have done anything to make him angry these days — — "
"I don't know about this." Song Fuxiao naturally did not want to get too involved in the family affairs of the Song family. Although his surname was also Song, he knew that he was not a real member of the Song family.
Song Yu pondered for a moment, then waved his hand. "Go. Follow the plan. The apology must be sincere. Let the entire capital know that it is not that the Song family is intolerant, but that the Yan family is timid and cowardly, they can't even protect their own descendant. The Song family will not take the blame that they threw at us. "
