I Hang Up In the Fantasy World

All the elders of the family agreed, and they were obviously more inclined to the second elder's self-protection plan than the fourth elder's death plan.

"How can you do this!"

The Fourth Elder clenched his right fist and slammed on the table. He looked at the many elders in the living room with anger on his face, and scolded:

"You guys are so greedy for life and afraid of death. The opponent just sent a letter, and you were so scared that you were ready to run away. As the elders, what you have done has completely embarrassed the Xiao family!"

The scolding words of the Fourth Elder resounded in the living room, and everyone had different expressions.

Some hesitated, some didn't care, and some had a flash of resentment in their eyes.

At this moment, the second elder spoke again, his tone was as gentle as a breeze, which made people feel good.

"No, the Fourth Elder misunderstood."

The Second Elder's name is Xiao Lei. He is thin and pale, but he always speaks with a gentle temperament, which makes people feel at ease.

"If there is a way to preserve the Xiao family's family business, I will do it even if I try my best."

The second elder looked tragic, with a hint of helplessness on his face.

"However, Zhang Yi's child has already broken through to the realm after all, and we have no chance of winning."

"If you fight recklessly, it's just hitting a stone with an egg. It will only cause the death of the family members in vain. I can't bear it, so I will make such a bad plan."

"I know that this matter is a great shame to the Xiao family. It is so easy to hand over the Xiao family's management for many years. I am ashamed of the expectations of the disciples in the family."

"However, as long as the Xiao family is still there, there is still hope for everything, but if the Xiao family is gone, it will really be over."

"Since this suggestion is made by me, I am willing to bear all the infamy in the future." After finishing speaking, the second elder lowered his head, saddened.

"The Second Elder is really thinking about the family, unlike some people who only care about their own ideas and don't think about the family at all."

"Second Elder makes me admire!"

...

"Okay." Xiao Jie couldn't help scolding, "Before the enemy came over, I made a mess."

Everyone bowed their heads in shame.

Xiao Jie looked at the second elder and said, "Just do what the second elder said."

"Although it is an invitation on the surface, in reality we have no choice at all."

"What the Zhang family wants is our Xiao family's business channels in Rock City for many years."

"If he wants it, then give it to them."

"Patriarch." The Fourth Elder couldn't help but say.

Xiao Jie looked at the Fourth Elder, shook his head and said, "The Fourth Elder doesn't need to persuade me, the Second Elder is right, if you keep the green hills, you won't be afraid of running out of firewood."

"The members of the Xiao family are the most important, well, let's all step back." Xiao Jie waved his hand and said sadly.

And when he left, the second elder lowered his head, and there was a glint of gloom in his eyes that no one noticed.

...

When the Xiao family received the envelope, the Lin family also received the envelope at the same time. Not surprisingly, they also fell into a storm of discussion.

...

The Zhang family, at this time, was in a completely different scene from the two families, and was in a carnival.

As night falls, darkness breeds.

At this moment, someone knocked on Zhang Yi's door.

"Talk." Zhang Yi's deep voice came from the door.

"Master, someone wants to see you, and they say they have something to tell the young master about the Xiao family, and now he has been temporarily arranged to wait in the side courtyard." The guard said respectfully.

"oh?"

"Who is he? What identity?" Zhang Yi asked.

The guard replied: "The man was wearing black clothes and a black scarf on his face. His subordinates couldn't recognize him, and he didn't want to talk about it. He just said that he hoped you, young master, would come over."

There was a moment of silence in the door, and then there was a squeak, Zhang Yi came out, looked at the guard and said, "Lead the way."

"Yes, please come with me, master."

...

After walking for a few minutes, Zhang Yi came to the side courtyard.

Seeing a man dressed in black, he cast a discerning eye over him, and Zhang Yi immediately knew the identity of the man in front of him.

Xiao Lei, the second elder of the Xiao family, why did he come here? Could it be that he came to seek refuge with the Zhang family seeing that the Xiao family's situation was over?

Thinking about it, Zhang Yi came to the man calmly, and said in a calm tone.

"Your Excellency came to see me, but refused to reveal your true colors. It's too dishonest."

The man raised his head and explained, "It's not that I'm not sincere, it's just that my identity is more sensitive..." As he spoke, the man glanced at the guard standing not far away.

Zhang Yi understood, waved his right hand, and after the guards left, Zhang Yi said, "Would you like to show your true face now?"

"That's natural." The man said, taking off the black scarf covering his face.

It was a pale face with sunken eyes.

Xiao Lei, the second elder of the Xiao family.

Zhang Yi looked indifferent, he asked in a playful tone.

"I have already sent letters to both of you, and you should have read the contents."

"The second elder of the dignified Xiao family came to me at such a moment, it's easy to make people have some bad associations."

Xiao Lei's face remained unchanged, and he said in the usual tone: "Young master is already a martial artist in the realm. Compared with him, the Xiao family is like an egg bumping against a stone. I'm just looking for a good place for myself."

"oh?"

"Interesting, let's hear it." Zhang Yi raised his eyebrows, a little curious.

Sitting on the stone pier, Zhang Yi signaled Xiao Lei to sit down.

After Xiao Lei sat down, he continued, "I want to make a deal with the young master."

"trade?"

Zhang Yi looked at Xiao Lei, and said with a half-smile, "In three days, the Xiao family's things will be mine. What else can you trade?"

Xiao Lei's face remained unchanged, but he just said calmly, "Young Master, to be honest, the Xiao family has passed a resolution and is willing to give up all income channels in Rock City. I just hope that you can let the Xiao family go so that we can find another place to go. .”

Zhang Yi nodded, and said as a matter of course: "Smart decision, it saves me to do it."

Xiao Lei went on to say, "But if it's just that, what the young master gets is just some resources, and the most precious things of the Xiao family are not available."

As he spoke, Xiao Lei looked up at Zhang Yi, with desire surging in his eyes.

"And this is my bargaining chip."

Zhang Yi nodded without any fluctuation on his face, "Sounds good."

Seeing Zhang Yi's expressionless face, Xiao Lei felt a little uncertain about the other party, hesitated for a moment, and said anyway.

"About ten years ago, the Xiao family obtained a treasure in a strange place."

"What kind of treasure?" Zhang Yi became a little interested and asked.

"Heavenly Mind Jade."

"Heavenly Mind Jade? You won't lie to me, will you?" Zhang Yi asked.

"Master Zhang, how dare I deceive you."

Xiao Lei said: "I came here alone, it can be said that I put my life in your hands, how could I lie to you, I swear, everything I said is true."

Zhang Yi sneered: "Come on, a person who betrayed the family, your oath is not convincing."

"However..." Zhang Yi changed the subject, and continued, "Tian Xin Jade is indeed beneficial to my cultivation, so I can give you a chance."

"Now you can say what terms you want to negotiate with me."

Xiao Lei said without hesitation, "After you receive the various resources of the Xiao family, I want half of the share."

Zhang Yi narrowed his eyes, and the corners of his mouth curled up, "It's really a lion's mouth, but I can accept it."

"Bring the Heavenly Mind Jade to me first, and our subsequent transactions will take effect."

"No." Xiao Lei frowned.

"I'll give you the Heavenly Soul Jade first. What if you go back on your word? You are a majestic master of the realm. If you get the item and turn your face and deny anyone, no one can do anything about it."

Xiao Lei said, and put forward his own suggestion.

"After both of us succeed, you will first give me 50% of the agreed resources, then I will give you the Tianxin Jade, and finally you will give me the remaining 50% of the resources."

Zhang Yi nodded, "This is a good proposal."

A smile appeared on Xiao Lei's face, but it froze immediately.

"But I refuse." Zhang Yi said calmly.

Where did Xiao Lei have such an experience, he froze in place on the spot, but fortunately his city was quite deep, so he recovered in a blink of an eye.

Xiao Lei forced a smile, "Why? I think this proposal is a very fair and acceptable choice for you and me."

"Are you afraid that I won't be trusted? Just leave after taking the 50% of the resources?" He wondered about the reason.

"You are a master of the realm, but I am just a warrior of the profound realm, and I am doing this just to protect myself.

"Are you afraid that I will be careful? This is even more impossible, unless I want to spend my whole life in fear."

Zhang Yi shook his head, "It's not for these reasons."

"What's the reason?" Xiao Lei asked.

"Forget it, I'm in a good mood, so I'll tell you." Zhang Yi looked at the other party and spoke slowly.

"The proposal you just made is indeed a fairer choice, but do you think you are qualified to talk about fairness with me?"

Xiao Lei's face was a little embarrassed, and he asked angrily, "What does Master Zhang mean by that?"

"As far as the original meaning of this sentence is concerned, you are just a martial artist in the Profound Realm, what qualifications do you have to ask me to be fair? This is one of them."

"Secondly, you overestimated the preciousness of the Tianxin Jade. Yes, I don't deny that the Tianxin Jade is indeed very helpful to my cultivation, but losing it is not an unacceptable thing for me."

"Thirdly, remember, it is you who ask me."

"You can only come to me, but I may not only be able to find you. You see, now that I know the existence of Tianxin Jade, I can ask for it directly from the Xiao family in three days. Why do I have to go through your hands?" .”

"It's just that you are the first person to tell me the news, so I'll give you a chance."

"Remember, the decision is in my hands."

Speaking of this, Zhang Yi took a sip of tea, said lightly without raising his eyes: "Go, send the Tianxinlingyu over before the meeting in the central square of the city, and I can still honor the 50% of the resources you requested from the Xiao family." .”

Xiao Lei's face was ashen, without saying a word, he got up slowly, saluted Zhang Yi, turned and left.

The darkness gradually engulfed his figure.

"Hmph." Zhang Yi sneered and stretched.

"It's really a catastrophe. Fly separately. The ancients never deceived me." Zhang Yi looked relaxed.

"When the critical moment comes, all kinds of monsters and goblins will come out. I'd better watch the show with peace of mind."

Two days later, in a tavern.

"Hey, have you heard about the Patriarch of the Xiao family?"

"Of course, there is probably no one in Rock City who doesn't know about it now."

"Hey, this is really the most exciting news I've ever heard!"

Some people whispered to each other, and there were constant discussions. What they were discussing was what happened before, the Patriarch of the Xiao family died suddenly!

As one of the three major families in Yanshan City, the Patriarch of the Xiao family is undoubtedly one of the most influential people in Rock City, and is undoubtedly a god-like existence in the eyes of the people in the city.

But it was such a person who suddenly died suddenly yesterday in the hall of Xiao's house, in full view of everyone, vomited black blood and poisoned his mouth, and died.

"You say, who did the Patriarch of the Xiao family offend? He was so ruthless."

"Could it be the Zhang family who did it? The two of them have always been at odds."

"It's really possible. I heard that the young master of the Zhang family and Zhang Shi happened to return to Rock City a few days ago, and the head of the Xiao family died afterward."

"Hush! Don't talk nonsense about this." Someone quickly reminded. "This is Rock City."

There was a lot of discussion in the tavern, and in another place, the two sat opposite each other, drinking a little wine, feeling very comfortable.

"Master Zhang, this is the Heavenly Soul Jade."

Xiao Lei took out a jade box, put it on the table and pushed it towards Zhang Yi.

"A human life." Zhang Yi sighed in his heart, put his palm on the jade box, and slid it towards himself.

Zhang Yi opened the jade box, and suddenly a wave of warm aura surged out, and a round treasure with a transparent fiery red color appeared in front of Zhang Yi.

The richness of the spiritual energy turned into mist. As Zhang Yi inhaled, the white mist entered Zhang Yi's body, traveled along the meridians to the limbs, and finally entered the dantian.

Zhang Yi only felt comfortable all over, as if his body had been soaked in a hot spring.

Tianxin Jade, a unique treasure.

It is said that if there is a powerful monster killing blood on the battlefield, by chance, the essence and blood of its life will be integrated into the spirit stone, and after being buried in a place rich in aura for thousands of years, it may mutate into the Heavenly Soul Jade.

The Tianxin Jade contains a trace of the essence and blood of a powerful monster. Wearing it for a long time will warm and nourish the body.

And if you are a martial artist who is practicing body refining, you can even use pills to absorb a trace of monster blood in the Tianxin Jade to strengthen your physical body.

Zhang Yi looked at Tian Xin Yu in front of him, nodded in satisfaction, and said to Xiao Lei, "Good job."

"Master Zhang, then what you promised me."

Xiao Lei mentioned this matter a little nervously. Now Tianxinxinyu is in the hands of the other party, and his own life is also in Zhang Yi's thought. For him, this is a big gamble. The young master is a warrior who keeps his promises.

After poisoning Xiao Jie, there is no place for him now in the Xiao family. If Zhang Yi repents, then he can be said to be finished.

"I am a person who keeps my promises. Since you have done it, then what I promised you will naturally be done."

Zhang Yi looked at Xiao Lei in front of him and said so.

Subjects three and four have passed, and the driver's license has been obtained!

wow!

In the future, I will try my best to increase the specified time for the guaranteed 2 updates.
