In the Qin Manor's main hall, Qin Yue was having a headache over Qin Qing's matter. He thought about how he had three sons. The eldest Qin Lan was brooding over the accidental death of his mother. He then focused on the Dao and did not care about the affairs of the world. Especially since he had come to Dao Seeking Sect to cultivate, he had never stepped into the house again.
His second son, Qin Zhi, and his daughter, Qin Qing, were born to his current wife. Although Qin Zhi was talented, he was spoiled since he was young, resulting in his violent personality. He was unpredictable and difficult to be magnanimous. Qin Qing was not only beautiful and refined, but also had a gentle and refined personality.
Although Qin Yue had deliberately arranged for Qin Qing and Ji Tianci to meet by chance, he did not expect his obedient daughter to lock him in the house after returning home and never ask about the world again.
"Patriarch, I have good news."
Seeing that something good was about to happen when Jing Feng returned from his secret meeting with Dongfang Yuan, Qin Yue swept away his worries and said,""Elder Jing, please sit."
"This was extorted from Dongfang Yuan. You have to keep it well. With it, your family will be able to replace the Dongfang Family with a sure-win weapon.”Jing Feng took a sip of his spiritual tea and said solemnly.
"Thank you, Elder Jing, for giving so much for the Qin family.”
Qin Yue knew the importance of this book and knew that it was not easy to obtain. He then bowed to Jing Feng and said.
"How is Qing-er?"
"Sigh! She's still like this. It really makes my heart ache when I see her. She still doesn't want to say anything. It really worries me.”Qin Yue frowned and replied.
"It's impossible to get information from Qing 'er or use a honey trap now. It's best to make other plans. By the way, I asked you to send someone to the Immortal Sword Academy to investigate secretly. Is there any result?”
"Not yet. I'm so anxious. "Kill Wu Meng. Dao Seeking Sect won't be able to withstand the anger of the Immortal Sword Academy. At that time, the one who will be in trouble will still be our Qin family. Let's not kill him. This kid is still here, making us unable to deal with Dongfang Juxian.”
"Elder Jing, hurry up and make a decision. I have no other choice now.”Qin Yue said helplessly.
At the beginning, Qin Yue's plan was carried out very smoothly. First, he started from the Dongfang family's internal affairs and bewitched Dongfang Yuan to fight for the position of the family head, splitting the family's power. Then, he started from the outside and nibbled away at the Dongfang family's spirit ores and medicinal herbs business bit by bit.
Originally, it would not take long for them to achieve their goal of annexing the Dongfang family. Who knew that Wu Meng's appearance would completely mess up the situation, and they had no choice but to regroup.
Not only did Dongfang Juxian free up his hands to isolate Dongfang Yuan, but he also adjusted the price of medicinal herbs in just two days, causing the Qin family to lose some merchants. At the same time, although the hidden spots in the spirit stone mines in Dongyuan, Jiuping, and Shangxu were not wiped out by them, they were either dead or injured. They no longer had the ability to gather their strength again.
This could not be entirely blamed on Dongfang Juxian's decisiveness and ruthlessness. He had been suppressed by the Qin family for a long time, especially when he found out that Dongfang Yuan had colluded with outsiders. It would be strange if he did not vent his anger on the Qin family.
"I think if it really doesn't work, we'll step forward and kill him. Then, we'll frame Dongfang Yuan. Anyway, their family is already openly causing internal strife.”
"Sigh, this is the only way.”
"Patriarch, Patriarch, there's good news, there's good news.”Chen Fang, the other guardian of the Qin family, said happily as he walked over.
Chen Fang only had the strength of the fifth layer of the Foundation Building realm, but he had always been rigorous in his work and was deeply appreciated by Qin Yue. This time, he was the one who went to the Immortal Sword Academy to inquire about the news. Qin Yue and Jing Feng saw Chen Fang lose his composure in joy. Clearly, they had found important information, which filled them with hope.
"Quick, please come in."
"Patriarch, Elder Jing, this lowly one didn't fail to fulfill my mission. I've finally found accurate news. Wu Meng of the Celestial Sword Academy lost a spar with a disciple of the Clear Sky School some time ago and was severely injured. According to my analysis, the Wu Meng that appeared at this time is definitely fake.”
"Is there really such a thing?"
Qin Yue and Jing Feng stood up excitedly, staring at Chen Fang in disbelief.
"This is true. In addition, I also received reliable news from the Clear Sky School. Recently, they haven't sent any disciples out, and everyone is busy with the competition a year later. Dongfang Wan 'er indeed went to the Clear Sky School, but she was always left there by the Clear Sky School, so she only recently returned to the city.”
"Oh, really? In that case, we were all deceived by this kid.”
"Patriarch, we can make our move now.”
"Alright, I'll leave this to Elder Jing to arrange.”
"Chen Fang has worked hard this time. Go to the storeroom and get 100 low grade spirits.”
When Qin Yue heard the news, he was both happy and angry. He was happy that Wu Meng was a fake, but he was angry that he had been deceived and almost pushed his daughter into the fire pit. Now that he thought about it, he felt a lingering fear.
Ever since he saw Dongfang Yuan and Jing Feng having a secret meeting in the guest house, Dongfang Juxian had returned to the secret room with Ji Tianci, who had disguised himself as Dai Nian. Dongfang Juxian, who was in the secret chamber, was also like an ant on a hot pan, pacing back and forth in front of Ji Tianci.
"Hey, hey, hey, can you stop spinning? My head is spinning from you. If you spin again, I'll vomit.”
"Nephew, what should we do now? What should he do? How to deal with this bastard Dongfang Yuan.”
"It's very simple. Watch carefully."
After Ji Tianci finished speaking, he pretended to be profound as he dipped the tea in his mouth and wrote the word "change" on the table. Dongfang Juxian was as confused as a monk.
"Nephew, can you be more specific?”
" Holy sh * t, what else do I have to say?" Ji Tianci smiled evilly.
"Hahaha ~~ Good idea, good idea. It's decided then, I'll go and summon him here.”
Dongfang Juxian arranged for a consecrator to invite Dongfang Yuan to the secret room. After a commotion came from inside, it calmed down. Soon, Dongfang Juxian and Dongfang Yuan came out of the secret room. The two of them clearly did not have a good conversation, especially when Dongfang Yuan scolded as he walked,"Dongfang Juxian brat, just you wait. I'll hold a family meeting one day and kick you out of the house.”
This Dongfang Juxian also said maliciously,"With your pus, I think you should go back and coax the child out.”
In the eyes of the twenty-odd consecrators, the uncle and nephew had once again broken down. Fortunately, no fighting broke out. If they really did fight, it would be very difficult for them. After all, they were hired by the Dongfang family, not just for a certain person.
Three days passed in a row. The Qin Clan and the Dongfang Family were unusually quiet. There were no more conflicts between the two families. Even if the two families met on the streets, they would not fight to the death. It was so calm that it was surprising.
Ji Tianci's seclusion was still ongoing, and he had never appeared in front of everyone. If Dongfang Wan 'er had not come here every day, the Dongfang family would probably have forgotten about him. Qin Qing had also come over once, mainly out of curiosity about a certain someone's identity.
Even Yun Xiao and Lady Zi Xin had visited Ji Tianci several times, but they were all rejected by Dongfang Juxian, who said that a certain someone had instructed him to visit in a few days. After coaxing and deceiving them, the two of them left.
Although Dongfang Juxian had been sitting leisurely in the hall recently, he was actually extremely nervous. He knew that after the calm, there would be a storm. How to let the family survive the storm was his top priority.
On the fourth night, Dongfang Yuan and Jing Feng met again at the guest house.
"Are you sure the mineral vein book you gave me is real? And that fake Wu Meng was cultivating in the Eastern Sage Gathering Secret Room?”
"It's true, it's all true. Is there a need for me to lie to you, Elder Jing? In the future, I would like to ask for your help to drive that bastard Dongfang Juxian out of power.”
"Alright, I'll believe you this time. Remember, we still need your cooperation tomorrow. Let's kill this hateful brat first.”
"What's the next step?"
"As for the next step…Why are you asking so much? Just wait for my next instruction.”Jing Feng looked at Dongfang Yuan warily.
"Alright, I'll be there on time tomorrow night to lead the way.”
After Jing Feng and Dongfang Yuan had a secret meeting, he went straight to Qin Manor.
"How did it go? Could he kill that brat first tomorrow?”
"I've confirmed it. He said the book was real, and I could tell from his expression that it was real. If it's confirmed, we'll find the right time to catch them all in one fell swoop, then support Dongfang Yuan, that pushover, as the puppet patriarch. At that time, even if the Clear Sky School pursued it, it would be useless.”
"Then I'll leave it to you, Elder Jing." Qin Yue bowed to Jing Feng to show his respect.
"Alright, I won't say anymore. I'm going to prepare. Also, you have to be mentally prepared. It's best if you get Qin Zhi to cooperate with me for the next few days.”
"Alright."
Seeing Jingfeng leave, Qin Yue stretched his waist to ease his nervous emotions. These few days were the hardest for him. Seeing that he was about to succeed, he still couldn't let go.
At midnight, other than the lanterns hanging at the entrance of the Dongfang family home, the lights were off everywhere else. Even the outside of the secret chamber was no exception. If it weren't for the four Dongfang Family's guardians patrolling the area, no one would have been able to tell that this was an important place for the Dongfang Family.
"Swish ~ Swish ~" Two black shadows entered the backyard of the Dongfang Family. Dongfang Yuan, who had been waiting there for a long time, greeted them politely.
"Elder Jing, thank you for your trouble."
"Let's not talk about idle chatter.”
"Elder Jing, I've already prepared them. These are the clothes of the people in my residence. I'll have to trouble you two to change into them.”
After changing their clothes, Dongfang Yuan led the way, while Jing Feng and the others carried wine jars in their hands. They looked like two servants.
"Stop! Who are you?"
"What are you shouting about? It's me."
"Oh, so it's Master Dongfang Yuan. May I ask why you're here so late at night?”
The four guardians took a look and realized that it was Dongfang Juxian's uncle. Although they knew that there was a conflict between uncle and nephew, they did not dare to offend him. Otherwise, they would have no place in the Dongfang family.
Although they were doing well in the Dongfang family, they were actually living a hard life. Rogue cultivators were not like sect disciples, where all the resources were provided by the sect. However, they could not do so and had to rely on their own efforts to obtain them.
