Saying that they got to know each other on the way to Jinzhou was just an excuse. Actually, he wanted to say that the Shanghai Sect had defected to Korea and that Niu Youdao was a disciple of the Sect. Then, he would step forward to be the peacemaker. That would make sense.
However, Niu Youdao had no room for negotiation. He refused to associate him with the Sect and told him firmly that he had been expelled by the Sect and that he had nothing to do with the Shanghai Sect anymore.
Song Long glanced at him coldly. "Zhuge Xun, aren't you being too nosy?"
Zhuge Xun quickly waved his hand. "Don't misunderstand. It's just a talk. As the saying goes, it's better to squash enmity than keep it alive. Let bygones be bygones. There's no need to hold on to it. "
Song Long snorted. "I don't understand what you're talking about. Let's get down to business! Those who have nothing to do with this should leave! Don't look for trouble. "
Zhuge Xun smiled bitterly and spread his hands at Niu Youdao. He looked like he had no choice.
Envoy Song, Tu Huaiyu, said indifferently, "He's a guest invited by someone else. How can you, the guest, chase him away? Has the Yan clan's etiquette been eaten by dogs?"
Song Long glared at him. "Old man Tu, don't look for trouble!"
These people may be more reserved in their own country's imperial court, but when they go abroad, it is normal for them to bang the table and argue with the envoys of other countries, or scold each other, or even curse each other. There is no such thing as politeness between them.
Of course, they could sit together and drink after cursing. They could curse again after drinking.
Even if they called each other brothers, they could fall out immediately when the country's interests required it. When the country's interests required it, they could chat intimately.
Tu Huaiyu ignored him and looked at Niu Youdao. "Little brother, I'm interested to hear what's going on. I wonder what enmity you have with the Song family?"
The others were curious as well. They were already curious when they saw Zhu Shun leading his men out of the Swallow House.
Qi Envoy Zuo Annian also cheerfully said: "Let's hear it."
Most of the others nodded in agreement. Song Long's face darkened. He really wanted to fling his sleeves and leave immediately, but he wanted to know what Zhuge Xun was going to talk about next.
"I was originally a disciple of the Shangqing Sect, but I was expelled by the Shangqing Sect. Along the way, I was ambushed by Senior Brother Song Yanqing …" Niu Youdao repeated what he had said about Zhuge Xun. After he was done, he stared at Song Yanqing and said, "Nanshan Temple tried to kill me once, and I killed Song Yanqing. Canglu County tried to kill me once, but I killed the son of your family's housekeeper. They had encountered Lord Song in the Jinzhou Prefectural City, and Lord Song had tried to kill them. If not for the fact that the Provincial Governor's Residence had intervened, who knew what would have happened! Lord Song, I really don't want to go on like this with the Song family, and I can't afford to offend the Song family. Today, with everyone here as witnesses, I am willing to sincerely apologize. I hope that the Song family will be magnanimous and let me off this time! "
Song Long sneered in his heart. Who do you think you are to negotiate with the Song family? But on the surface, he said calmly, "I don't understand what you are talking about. This is not the place for you to spout nonsense. When did I try to kill you? Don't spout nonsense without evidence! "
Almost at the same time, Huang Xusheng and Xie Chun, who had heard the commotion inside, moved behind him in a flash to prevent Niu Youdao from acting recklessly after the negotiation failed.
Niu Youdao stood up and cupped his hands. "Lord Song, I am sincere. As long as you let me off, we can discuss any conditions!"
This was not a lie. The Song family was powerful, and it would be best if they could resolve this peacefully.
Song Long leaned back in his chair and said calmly, "How do you want me to discuss something that has nothing to do with you?"
Niu Youdao did not say a word. He understood the other party's attitude.
Everyone present was smart and understood the meaning behind Song Long's words. However, they just treated it as a show. No one would care about Niu Youdao's feelings.
Song Long looked at Zhuge Xun. "Zhuge, don't be so ridiculous. Let the irrelevant people leave and talk business!"
Zhuge Xun could only stand up and send the guest off. He cupped his hands and said, "Brother Niu, I am really sorry. Why don't you go back and rest first?"
Song Long did not care about Niu Youdao at all. The corner of his mouth curled up into a faint cold smile.
Tu Huaiyu, who was at the side, suddenly said in a strange tone, "I really don't know what some people are thinking. How can they agree to be the peacemaker in this kind of matter? Even if you think about it, you know it's ridiculous. Aren't you just embarrassing the guest? You don't have hair on your mouth, so you can't do things properly! "
The apologetic Zhuge Xun suddenly turned around. He seemed to be angry from embarrassment. "Old thief, who are you scolding?"
Tu Huaiyu also stood up and glared. "Little Zhuge, who are you scolding?"
Zhuge Xun, "I'll scold whoever scolds me!"
"You uncultured thing. I'll discipline you on behalf of your parents!" Tu Huaiyu shouted angrily. He waved his hand and slapped him.
Smack! A clear and loud slap landed on Zhuge Xun's face.
Everyone was stunned. It was not the first time they saw the two of them scolding each other, but it was the first time they saw a fight.
Song Long was stunned and almost laughed out loud. They were talking about him, and the two of them just started fighting? They wanted to watch him get into trouble. Now, let's see who gets into trouble.
Zhuge Xun, who was covering his face, was also stunned. He did not expect the old man to actually hit him. There was no such thing in a private show. He knew that he would not be able to reveal the truth after this, so he took the opportunity to take revenge!
Niu Youdao was also stunned. They even hit each other. These two guys could really act!
Zhuge Xun almost immediately slapped him back.
Tu Huaiyu, who made the first move, was already prepared. He raised his hand to block, but in the next moment, Zhuge Xun grabbed his beard.
Their followers quickly dashed in and pulled the two of them apart.
With so many cultivators rushing in at once, it was easy for accidents to happen. The other followers also dashed in and protected their targets as they left the pavilion.
"Who?" Suddenly, someone shouted. One of Zhuge Xun's followers suddenly turned around and grabbed Huang Xusheng, who was about to leave with Song Long. He shouted, "Why did you kick me?"
"I didn't kick you!" Huang Xusheng swung him away, but the latter stumbled and knocked over the table.
Once they started fighting, the scene immediately became chaotic. Zhuge Xun's men all rushed over, and Song Long's men naturally did not want to be outdone.
Seeing that a fight was about to break out, Tu Huaiyu, who had already separated from Zhuge Xun, shouted, "Stop them, don't hurt the harmony!"
His men also immediately rushed up and joined forces with Zhuge Xun's men. Almost every two people held back one of Song Long's men, immediately causing Song Long to lose his protection and fall into an isolated place.
"Stop, all of you stop!" Song Long shouted.
Niu Youdao, who was standing in front of the overturned table, stared coldly at Song Long outside the pavilion and raised his hand.
Yuan Fang, who was hugging his sword, immediately threw it out.
Grabbing the sword in his hand, Niu Youdao suddenly dashed out and flew over a group of people.
Huang Xusheng and the others suddenly raised their heads and turned pale with fright, but they were held back tightly by someone.
"What are you trying to do?" Song Long exclaimed.
Everyone looked over and saw that Song Long was already kneeling on the ground with his hair tied up by Niu Youdao, and a cold sword was placed on his neck.
"Sir?" the cultivator beside Chu Xiangyu asked, implying that he was going to stop them.
Chu Xiangyu raised his hand to stop them and said indifferently, "It's not a bad thing for the Yan clan to have internal strife!"
"What are you all doing?"
A stern shout came from the night sky. Dozens of people descended from the sky and surrounded Niu Youdao. The people from the provincial governor's manor had arrived.
Zhuge Xun and Tu Huaiyu looked at each other. They didn't know why Niu Youdao was dawdling. Could they still make a move now?
But they didn't care about this for the time being. The two of them were anxious to get rid of their responsibility, so they quickly waved their hands and signaled their men to let go of Song Long's men.
Huang Xusheng and the others immediately rushed over once they were free, but they were stopped by the people from the provincial governor's manor. "All of you, stop!"
Huang Xusheng could only point at the surrounded Niu Youdao and shout, "Niu Youdao, release Lord Song immediately!"
Niu Youdao looked around coldly and finally fixed his gaze on Song Long who was kneeling on the ground and trembling. He said indifferently, "If Song Yanqing tried to kill me, I will kill him! If Liu Ziyu tried to kill me, I will kill him! If you kill me, I will kill you! If anyone from the Song family comes, I will kill them. I am waiting for them! "
Swoosh! The cold light in his hand drew a line of blood on Song Long's neck. The female singers screamed in fright.
People who didn't like to fight and kill usually didn't make a move, but once they did, they were very ruthless!
Song Long didn't even have time to scream before his head was cut off by Niu Youdao. His body was kicked to the ground and twitched. There was no chance for him to come back to life.
Huang Xusheng and the others were stunned. How were they going to explain this to Yan Manor and their sect?!
"Hiss!" The envoys all sucked in a breath of cold air. Even though Zhuge Xun and Tu Huaiyu were mentally prepared, they still shivered at this scene.
"…" Fang Zhe was completely speechless. What kind of people did the Prince send?
Yuan Fang looked on in a daze. He muttered in his heart, 'Daoye is really daring. I'm afraid he has gone too far this time!'
Chen Guishuo was flabbergasted. He still dared to make a move in this kind of situation. Was he really not afraid of death? He really didn't expect that the guy who was under house arrest in the Peach Blossom Spring back then was actually a vicious and merciless fugitive!
Niu Youdao directly threw Song Long's head at Huang Xusheng.
The sword in his hand was also knocked down, and he was quickly restrained by the people from the Provincial Governor's Manor.
Huang Xusheng and the others rushed over in a frenzy, but they were also stopped by the people from the Provincial Governor's Manor.
"Murderers must pay with their lives!" Huang Xusheng shouted angrily.
The person who stopped him placed a sword on his neck and warned, "We will handle it. There's no need for you to teach us. Gold Province isn't a place where you can do whatever you want! All disciples, listen up. Whoever dares to act recklessly will be killed without mercy! Detain everyone at the scene! "
For a moment, the shadows of swords and sabers flashed.
Very quickly, a large number of people rushed over. It could be said that everyone present was captured, and no one resisted!
They also didn't dare to resist. Making a move against the people from the Provincial Governor's Manor here was simply courting death!
Song Long's body was also moved away.
In the pavilion, untasted dishes and wine were spilled all over the ground …
Everyone was locked in a courtyard. The cultivators' meridians were sealed, and they couldn't use their transcendence energy.
Zhuge Xun pushed open the door to a room and touched his face that had a palm print on it. He scolded Tu Huaiyu, who was sitting there leisurely drinking tea, "Old thing, who allowed you to make a move?"
Tu Huaiyu chuckled and said, "Isn't it to make a more convincing performance? You pulled off a few strands of my beard, but I didn't make a fuss about it, did I?"
