According to Seven Kills' conclusion, there were three main reasons why the Wu family could dominate Shudu City for decades.
First, Wu Shian, the current head of the Wu family, was a very good person. The Wu Group often cooperated with the police to solve some difficult cases. In addition, the Wu family would give a huge sum of money to charity every year, so they left a good impression on the authorities.
Second, although Wu Shixun was the underground leader of Shudu City, he was extremely cautious. Even if the police had doubts, they could not find conclusive evidence and could not convict him.
Third, Wu Shichong was the chief instructor of the Yulin Guards after all. They had to give him some face.
Therefore, as long as the Wu family did not commit heinous crimes such as murder, arson, drug trafficking, smuggling, or treason, which caused great anger and bad public opinion, the authorities would generally turn a blind eye and did not bother to investigate.
Ding Ning frowned and sent a text message to Seven Kills, "Can the Human Network be above the Law?"
It took Seven Kills a long time to reply, "When the water is too clear, there will be no fish. In this world, there are not only black and white, but also gray areas. This is an inevitable phenomenon in any country and any dynasty, and Shenzhou is no exception."
Ding Ning thought for a long time and then replied in a sonorous tone, "Justice may be late, but it will never be absent."
"Everyone and I are looking forward to it!"
Seeing the last message from Seven Kills, Ding Ning slightly raised the corner of his mouth. The National Warrior's Mansion did not let him down after all. Otherwise, he would have nothing to do with the National Warrior's Mansion from now on.
Mount Yan, the National Warrior's Mansion.
Xiahou Weiyang looked at the text message in Seven Kills' mobile phone and could not help but shake his head with a wry smile, "This guy really can't tolerate any mistakes."
"It's not difficult to deal with the Wu family, but I'm worried about Wu Shichong …"
Seven Kills said worriedly, but he was interrupted by Xiahou Weiyang, who had a meaningful look in his eyes. "Trust him. Moreover, he and Wu Shichong will have a battle sooner or later. It's just a matter of time."
"Ah? When did he have a grudge against Wu Shichong? "
Seven Kills was shocked and asked in astonishment.
"It's not a festival, but a responsibility. This era is the best era, and also the worst era. Someone has to stand up and shoulder all of this. The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. Ding Ning has already met this condition, so he has already become the default candidate."
Xiahou Weiyang said with a hidden meaning, but he sighed in his heart. Wu Shichong was not the scary one in the Wu Clan, but the Wu Clan's old ancestor in the armory.
Seven Kills was confused, but he had a feeling that something big was about to happen. This made him very excited and excited. He thought to himself, "Little Brother, we are all watching you. How are you going to soar? Don't disappoint us."
"By the way, how is Kang 'er?"
Xiahou Weiyang suddenly changed the topic.
Seven Kills had a helpless look on his face. He smiled bitterly and said, "She has already tried to kill herself several times. If it weren't for Jing 'er and Pojun keeping a close eye on her, she would have died long ago. If something really happened to her, I don't know how to explain it to Master."
"Alas! She is also a poor person. I hope she can forget the past and start over. You guys take turns to watch her. Keep a close eye on her. Seventh Brother and Ninth Brother are in seclusion. Don't let anything happen to her. "
Xiahou Weiyang also felt a headache. He was not careless when it came to battles. Charging and breaking through enemy lines was also his strength. Even if it was a duel of life and death, he was not afraid. However, he could not do anything to people like Ye Xiao who had nothing to live for.
Seven Kills' eyes flickered. He looked like he wanted to say something but stopped.
"If you have something to say, just say it. Why are you hesitating in front of Uncle-Master?"
Xiahou Weiyang glared and pretended to be angry.
"Hehe!"
Seven Kills laughed dryly and said with a face full of gossip, "Uncle-Master, I think Pojun seems to care about Kang 'er a lot.
。”
"Kang 'er is your master's daughter. Isn't it normal for him to care about her?"
Xiahou Weiyang asked in confusion. He had been a soldier all his life. Even when he got married, he followed the orders of his parents and the words of the matchmaker. How would he know about matters of the heart? He was also very slow when it came to relationships. How could he understand what Seven Kills meant?
"But I feel that it is not ordinary care. It is unusual care, just like how I feel for Jing 'er."
Seven Kills scratched his head and explained, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
"You and Jing 'er … Oh, I get it. You mean Pojun likes Kang' er? That can't be. They didn't even know each other before. It has only been a few days. How did Pojun suddenly like her? "
Xiahou Weiyang mumbled with a face full of confusion.
Seven Kills secretly rolled his eyes and said happily, "Uncle-Master, you have never been in a relationship before, so you don't know what love at first sight is …"
Smack!
A finger hit Seven Kills' forehead, and the pain made him grimace.
"Humph, why haven't you been in a relationship before? Isn't it just love at first sight? Back then, although I didn't see your Martial Auntie before we got married, on the wedding night, when I lifted her red veil, my heart suddenly beat faster, and my heart was full of joy … "
Xiahou Weiyang blew his beard and glared at him as he spoke. As he spoke, his voice became softer and softer. His eyes were slightly red as he thought of the past in the mortal world. He could not help but feel sad. He closed his mouth and waved his hand to let Seven Kills leave.
Seven Kills felt guilty. He knew that he had inadvertently touched on his Uncle-Master's sore spot again. He bowed slightly, turned around, and left without saying a word, leaving the lonely old man alone.
In fact, not only him, but all the old people in the National Warrior's Mansion knew that although Xiahou Weiyang obeyed his parents' order and married his Martial Auntie, they fell in love at first sight and fell in love with each other when they first met on the night of their wedding night.
Unfortunately, on the night of their wedding, Xiahou Weiyang resolutely left home and joined the army of revolution. He was a man who would die on the battlefield at any time and had no future at all. He could not bear to implicate the woman he fell in love with at first sight, so he never touched her from the beginning to the end and even gave her a letter of divorce.
But that woman hid the letter of divorce, forced a smile, and replaced him as his daughter-in-law to fulfill her filial piety in front of his parents. She stayed a widow for his whole life and waited for him for more than 20 years, but she never saw him again. In the end, she died in the tragedy that destroyed her family that year.
If there was someone Xiahou Weiyang owed the most in his life, there was no doubt that it was his wife, who was only a husband and wife in name but not a husband and wife in reality. This was the biggest pain in his heart, and it was also a hurdle that he could never get over in this life.
Seven Kills walked out of Xiahou Weiyang's room and quietly clenched his fists. When he thought of his Third Martial Auntie, who was a tragic and respectable woman, his heart could not help but ache. He wanted to tear those executioners into pieces to vent his hatred.
For so many years, the National Warrior's Mansion had been investigating openly and secretly, but they could not find out who did the murder that year. They wanted to take revenge, but they had no way to do so.
Only Xiahou, who was lucky enough to hide in the cellar and escaped death, knew some clues, but Xiahou hated his Uncle-Master very much, so there was no possibility for him to communicate with him. It was almost impossible to get any clues from him.
Perhaps he should find a time to talk to Ding Ning and see if he could open a loophole to make Xiahou give in, so that he could find the enemy and avenge his Uncle-Master's family to pay tribute to their souls in heaven. After all, it was not only his Uncle-Master's revenge, but also the blood feud of the entire National Warrior's Mansion.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Feeling the sound of the halberd wind in his Uncle-Master's yard, Seven Kills thought to himself, and a trace of determination appeared in his eyes.
He knew that his Uncle-Master had begun to practice the halberd technique again. Every time he was in a bad mood, he would use this method to distract himself and relieve the guilt and suffering in his heart.
…
Clang!
The door of the restaurant was directly kicked to pieces, and three people rushed in aggressively.
The boss, who was hiding behind the cashier, wanted to cry but had no tears. This time, the door of the restaurant finally completed its mission and was completely destroyed.
"Eldest Senior Brother, you're finally here."
When the Third Senior Brother saw them, he shouted in surprise. The other Junior Brothers also looked happy and greeted them happily.
"A bunch of good-for-nothings! You've lost the face of our sect. "
The three people were two men and a woman. A young man about 30 years old glanced at the Third Senior Brother and the others and scolded them coldly.
The Third Senior Brother and the others looked aggrieved and lowered their heads in shame. They did not dare to refute at all, because the one who scolded them was their Eldest Senior Brother, the number one genius in their sect that was rarely seen in a hundred years.
"Wu Ling, Wu Ling, how are you?"
The woman who had just arrived looked to be about 26 or 27 years old. She was very pretty and had a ponytail. She wore a training robe and a short sword hung on her waist. She looked valiant and heroic. When she saw Wu Ling's miserable state, she immediately rushed forward and shouted anxiously.
"Sister, you have to avenge me."
Wu Ling was shaken by the woman and slowly woke up. He felt pain all over his body. His mouth twitched and he cried pitifully.
"Who injured my little brother?"
The woman's face was as cold as ice. She suddenly stood up and looked around coldly as she asked angrily.
"It's him. His name is Pan Xianglong. He's the son of Pan Family Pharmaceutical's chairman, Pan Weiguo."
Wu Ling's face was filled with a smug smile as he pointed at Pan Xianglong and shouted.
"Noisy."
Pan Xianglong glanced at Wu Ling with disdain. The disposable chopsticks in his hand suddenly left his hand and shot towards Wu Ling's mouth like lightning.
"Hmph, how dare you."
"You're courting death!"
The woman and the Eldest Senior Brother shouted angrily at the same time. Both of them made their moves to stop the chopsticks.
The Eldest Senior Brother was obviously faster than Wu Ling's sister. He grabbed the chopsticks first but …
With a swoosh, the chopsticks pierced through his palm and blood splattered everywhere. The chopsticks continued to fly forward without stopping. The Eldest Senior Brother's expression changed drastically as he shouted, "Junior Sister, be careful!"
The woman immediately felt that something was wrong. She unsheathed the short sword on her waist and slashed at the chopsticks with a cold flash.
Clang!
The sound of metal clashing could be heard. The cold glint of the precious sword was broken into two. The chopsticks were only slightly off course and continued to fly towards Wu Ling like a bullet.
"Help!"
Wu Ling was so scared that his soul almost left his body. He held his head and cried.
"Hmph, how dare you be so presumptuous in front of me."
A shadow flashed. A young man who came with the Eldest Senior Brother and Wu Ling's sister suddenly made his move. He stood in front of Wu Ling like a ghost and said arrogantly.
He leisurely stretched out two fingers, and the chopsticks were firmly caught between his fingers.
Pan Xianglong's pupils shrank as he stared at the arrogant young man with fear. His heart was beating like a drum. This young man was a powerful martial artist. He was not sure if his sister's friend was a match for him.
"Thank you, Young Master Wei, for saving us."
Wu Ling's sister looked at the young man affectionately. Her face was filled with shyness.
The Eldest Senior Brother's face turned pale. He had always had a crush on Wu Ling's sister, Wu Hongying. He was looking forward to the day when he could marry her and become the son-in-law of the Wu Clan.
He did not expect that this man with the surname Wei would be in the limelight the moment he arrived. Not only was he younger and more handsome than the Eldest Senior Brother, his family background was extraordinary and his cultivation level was unfathomable. It was obvious that Wu Hongying had developed feelings for him which made him feel threatened.
