PNB Chapter 351 The scapegoat
Chapter 351 The scapegoat
Luo Shan originally just wanted to casually put the blame on Tianshui City, but he never thought that after agreeing to escort the Fang family, he would actually be ambushed by people from Tianshui City.
A Jindan cultivator and five foundation-building cultivators appeared and blocked the crowd's way.
After the initial panic, Fang Ge quickly calmed down.
After all, compared to the late Jindan who is half a step away from Nascent Soul, these people are obviously not that threatening.
"Hand over the stuff!"
The leading Jindan cultivator spoke, his eyes fixed on Fang Ge.
Fang Ge took a step back and said to Luo Shan behind him: "Senior Qi."
The leading Jindan early stage cultivator looked at Luo Shan and was immediately shocked. He asked in surprise, "Jindan late stage cultivator? Why would the Fang family send out a Jindan late stage cultivator?"
"Tsk tsk tsk, your mastermind is not a fool, right? Even a late Jindan couldn't do anything to me, so why would he send six pieces of trash? I let your man escape before, so today, you all have to leave your lives here."
Luo Shan was overjoyed. She had let her clone go before, fearing that it would arouse suspicion from the Fang family once the matter was over. Now that this group of people appeared, it would be a perfect opportunity for her to take the blame and dispel their suspicion of her.
So, after Luo San finished speaking, he didn't give the opponent a chance to react, he attacked directly, and every move was fatal.
what?
What? That person escaped? Aren’t they the first group arranged to take action? Could it be that there were other people arranged?
How come they don't know?
The Jindan cultivator felt that something was strange, but since a cultivator in the late Jindan stage was taking action, how could he, a cultivator in the early stage, be distracted?
However, the gap in strength between the late stage and the early stage was too great, and soon, the Jindan cultivator was killed directly by Luo Shan.
Luo San took less than three breaths to deal with all the remaining foundation-building cultivators.
Holding several storage bags in his hands, he checked the contents one by one. Then he raised his eyebrows and took out a token made of black iron from the Jindan cultivator. On it was the word "City", which was prominently displayed.
"Someone from the Tianshui City Lord's Mansion?" Luo Shan took out the Xuan card and threw it to Fang Ge.
Fang Ge took it with both hands, and when he took a look, his expression changed.
"It is indeed the token of the City Lord's Mansion."
He didn't expect that the person who took action this time was actually from the City Lord's Mansion.
"Young Master, should we go back and report to the head of the family?" the foundation-building cultivator next to him whispered.
"Go back!" Their mission this time is the City Lord's Mansion of Tianshui City. If the people in the City Lord's Mansion take action, there is a fear that something unexpected may happen. There is no need to go again this time. It is better to go back and report to their father.
Thinking of this, Fang Ge immediately ordered to return to the city.
Of course, he also took the corpses on the ground back with him.
It was the afternoon of the third day when they returned to Fang's house. Luo Shan followed Fang Ge, and this time, they entered the Fang's house directly through the main gate.
However, he did not see the so-called head of the Fang family. Instead, Fang Ge and the housekeeper arranged for him to rest in the guest room.
Luo Shan was not in a hurry, so he stayed in the guest room for a whole day.
Early the next morning, Luo Shan called the housekeeper and told him that she had saved the second son of the Fang family. The second son agreed to give her 100,000 spirit stones and said that she had taken the spirit stones and was leaving.
The butler naturally said tactfully that the master of the house and the second young master were not available at the moment, and he needed to ask for instructions, so he asked the distinguished guest to wait for a moment.
In the evening, Luo Shan received the invitation from the head of the Fang family as he wished.
When we arrived at the main hall, we saw the patriarch of the Fang family and the second son of the Fang family sitting at the dining table, with another seat opposite them.
"Fellow Daoist Qi, I have been very busy these past two days and I hope I cannot entertain you well enough. Please forgive me." The patriarch of the Fang family looked to be in his thirties, but he was already a mid-stage Jindan cultivator.
"Before, I would like to thank you for saving Ge'er." Patriarch Fang smiled elegantly and looked at Luo Shan with a very kind look.
"It's okay, you and I are just doing a business, no need to thank me." Luo Shan said seriously.
Patriarch Fang paused as he held the wine glass.
“Fellow Daoist Qi is so young, yet he is already a Jindan cultivator. I wonder where you are from?” A gleam of light flashed across the eyes of Patriarch Fang.
He would not believe that such a young Jindan cultivator had no background.
Luo Shan did not want to use the identity of a casual cultivator. He thought for a moment and said, "Southern Xinjiang Corpse Puppet Qi Ying."
"Corpse puppet from Southern Xinjiang?" The face of the head of the Fang family changed slightly. He looked at Luo Shan and finally his eyes fell on her waist. He saw a small black coffin hanging there and nodded.
"So you are a fellow Daoist from Southern Xinjiang." Patriarch Fang smiled slightly and said, "Since Fellow Daoist Qi has come to Fangzhou City, why don't you stay here for a while longer so that I can show my hospitality as a host."
Luo Shan hesitated for a while and said, "I am just passing through Fangzhou City. I am afraid I cannot stay for long."
"Well, since you saved my son, our Fang family would naturally like to thank you very much." The head of the Fang family said seriously.
"In that case, I'd better obey your command respectfully." Luo Shan refused again and again, but seeing this, he nodded in agreement.
After chatting with the head of the Fang family for a while, she stood up, said goodbye and returned to the guest house.
As soon as Luo Shan left, the expression on Patriarch Fang's face became somewhat subtle.
"Dad, is this Senior Qi really a cultivator from the Corpse Puppet Tribe?" Fang Ge frowned.
"It should be true." Patriarch Fang frowned and said calmly.
"By the way, there must be a problem in Tianshui City. Find a way to get the thing I gave you to the Su family." The head of the Fang family had an inexplicable expression on his face. He tapped the table lightly with his fingertips, making a soft "knock knock" sound.
"I heard that Su Jue from the Su family is back. Now he is a Nascent Soul cultivator. I'm afraid we can't fight him the same way as before." Fang Ge frowned.
"It's just the early stage of Nascent Soul. His Su family boasts that they are superior to our Fang family, but they don't know that in the end, they are just making wedding dresses for others." The head of the Fang family sneered, and when he thought of what the Su family had done to you over the years, he snorted.
"He is an inner sect disciple of Yu Men, Dad. Su Jue is just a side branch of the Su family, and we are not close to him. Why don't we wait until he leaves before we take action?" Fang Ge was a little hesitant. After all, Su Jue was a Nascent Soul cultivator. If he really noticed something, their Fang family would have to face the entire Yu Men.
"That's fine." Patriarch Fang was silent for a moment and said, "In a few days, take the jade letter and go to Tianshui City again. Ask Fellow Daoist Qi from Southern Xinjiang to go with you."
Southern Xinjiang Corpse Puppet, now that you are here, don’t leave.
Luo Shan naturally didn't know about the conversation between the father and son after she left. She entered the Fang family naturally to find out the relationship between the Fang family and the Lobbyist House.
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard Fang Ge's voice outside the courtyard gate.
"Senior, Fang Ge wants to see you."
"Please come in." Luo Shan in the room raised his eyebrows and spoke.
Fang Ge walked in with a storage bag in his hand. When he saw Luo Shan, he respectfully presented the storage bag to him.
"This is the reward I promised you."
Luo Shan took it expressionlessly. Seeing Fang Ge still bent over, he asked in surprise, "Do you have anything else to do?"
