Invincible Powers Chapter 17: The Zhao family wants to swallow the dragon!
There are four major families in Dark Moon City, namely the Yuan family, the Zhao family, the Huang family and the Yu family.
Not only the various incomes in the city, but also the mines and herb forests outside the city are jointly owned by the four major families.
Even, even the owner of Darkmoon City is competed by the four major families in turn.
The Zhao family and the Huang family had replaced the Yuan family in the previous hundred years and took control of the city lord authority of Dark Moon City.
Among the four major families, the Huang family controls many mines and quarries, and most of the rare gold and iron mined, as well as special ores, belong to the Huang family.
The Yu family is in control of the large area of medicine gardens and forests around the Dark Moon City, where the elixir and spirit grass are planted.
As for the Zhao family and the Yuan family, the income is mainly in the city. Most of the rent in the main commercial street of Darkmoon City goes to the Yuan family, the city owner.
As for the Zhao family, there are many shops in Darkmoon City, wine shops, silver houses, and many shops for exchanging materials in the city, many of which are controlled by the Zhao family.
The Huang family and the Yu family almost always obtained spirit stone materials outside the city, earning hard money.
The Yuan family and the Zhao family are using a more decent and comfortable way to obtain more benefits.
Not only that, the Yuan family and the Zhao family also have a certain proportion of the annual income from the mines and medicinal herbs outside the city.
The so-called three-land competition between the four major families is to redistribute the proportions of mines, quarries, medicine gardens, and forest farms outside the city according to the strength of the families.
As for those in the city, which are firmly controlled by the Yuan family and the Zhao family, it is extremely difficult for the Huang family and the Yu family to get involved.
…
In the east of the city, in the depths of a house belonging to the Yuan family, Lin Hanyu and his daughter were soaked in two huge wooden barrels respectively.
The dark green liquid filled with wooden barrels has a foul smell, and some poisonous insects can be faintly seen floating out of it.
The floating poisonous insects, small insect bodies, soon became hard, and they all died of poisoning.
The "Yuanxue Pill" in his body was poisonous, and Lin Hanyu, who was dying, lowered his head and looked at his chest in humiliation. "The blood poison.
As the toxin left his body, his sanity gradually became clear, but the anger in his heart never faded.
On the other side, Lin Zhuyun, who was enduring the stench soaring into the sky, and those poisonous insects possessed him, closed his eyes tightly, filled with grief and indignation.
Father and daughter never imagined that they would suffer such a severe blow in the Yu family. Not only did they not get what they wanted, they almost lost their lives.
"Yu Yuan!"
The two shouted angrily in their hearts.
"It's not me. I brought you out of the Yu family, out of Yu Yuan's hands, and figured out the way to detoxify. Your father and daughter are already dead." Yuan Lianyao suddenly appeared like a ghost.
The moonlight is like water.
Under the bright moonlight, she is wearing a tight silver-white dress and her graceful figure is like a mermaid with white scales.
"Heck! Although this detoxification method is somewhat different, it still works after all." Yuan Lianyao's gaze wandered over Lin Hanyu's father and daughter, making them feel even more uncomfortable and aggrieved, " This is Dark Moon City, I hope you Lin family will not mess around again in the future!"
"Master Lu of the Cold Yin Sect is just outside the city! If she finds out that the little girl has suffered such a calamity, she will never let it go!"
Lin Hanyu knew very well that the woman in front of her had a strong background, and she might not be able to suppress it just by bringing her out of the Lin family, so she used the Hanyin sect as an example.
"Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you some news." Yuan Lianyao pulled the corners of her mouth and said with a strange smile: "The guards outside the city found traces of a fierce battle in a cave. Then The master of the Hanyin sect should have been killed, and the bones have not been found."
"What?"
Father and daughter drink together.
"To be honest, I feel that behind Yu Yuan, there is another expert to help." Yuan Lianyao said solemnly, "After the poison has faded, you two, it is best to leave Dark Moon City as soon as possible. Let the Lin family first , let the Hanyin Sect figure it out, and then worry about it. But if you don’t know anything, you will die in Dark Moon City inexplicably, and I will be responsible and explain to the Lin family and the Hanyin Sect.”
After half-reminding and half-threatening words, the Lord City Lord left under the eyes of the father and daughter who were extremely surprised and confused.
…
In the city, Lingbaozhai, backyard.
Zhao Dongsheng, who has a strong body and even looks a bit bloated, wears seven rings inlaid with various gold, silver and precious jade on his fat fingers, which are extravagant and exaggerated.
On the jade table in front of him, there are a pair of scissors, a jade tablet, and an iron ruler.
The three objects are all rare treasures, and they all emit a faint precious light, with unusual aura fluctuations.
"Lilong scissors, it's like a fake replacement spiritual weapon, it's not high grade, it's just a third grade."
Zhao Dongsheng touched the jet-black scissors slowly, and there was a black light, like the legendary Lilong, who seemed to be inside the scissors and was suddenly activated and awakened. The starting price that people can offer. But I think, you kid...isn't among them."
With a smile on his face, he looked at the visitor in front of him with scrutiny, "Frankly speaking, the reason why I am willing to see you is because I have heard a lot about your deeds recently."
During the speech, his chubby body lay lazily on his back in the spacious recliner, and he did not introduce the jade plaque and iron ruler again, "If I guessed correctly, what you really want is Li Long Cut it?"
"Good."
Yu Yuan stood tall and straight, facing the second generation helm of the Zhao family, "I have inquired about it, and I know that the Lilong scissors from your Zhao family's Lingbaozhai are very suitable for my aunt. So, I came here today, and what I'm looking for is Lilongjian. As for the other two, I'm not interested for the time being."
"Chick!"
Qin An, the nominal shopkeeper of Lingbao Zhai, couldn't help laughing out loud. Standing beside Zhao Dongsheng, who was tall and slender like a stick, he looked so strange, "Master Yu, I have to remind you, When this Lilong scissors first arrived at Lingbaozhai, your aunt Yu Li came here immediately."
"I still remember how she was thinking about it, but do you know why she couldn't take this Lilong scissors away?"
Without waiting for Yu Yuan to answer, Qin An gave the answer on his own, "She can't afford it!"
Zhao Dongsheng's reclining chair was already shaking up and down exaggeratedly, "My Lingbaozhai is not a charity place. I don't have enough spirit stones. It's meaningless to talk about it."
During the speech, he casually raised his hand to signal Qin An to see off the guests.
People, he has met, and his curiosity has been satisfied.
In his eyes, the sober young master of the Yu family is indeed a bit strange.
But their Zhao Family Lingbao Zhai is a place to do business and make money, no matter how eloquent a person is, as long as he comes to Lingbao Zhai empty-handed, he will not be interested, so he will wait patiently.
Yu Yuan in front of him didn't even have a cloth or leather bag to hold the spirit stones, so he obviously came empty-handed.
Coming to Lingbao Pavilion empty-handed already means disrespecting him and the Zhao family!
"I heard that Zhao Yafu's realm has stagnated in Yunlingling Realm." Yu Yuan stepped forward and looked directly into Zhao Dongsheng's small eyes, "Miss Zhao is one year younger than me. It's not too bad to cultivate in the late stage of the spiritual realm. But you and I both know that she has advanced very quickly in the two realms of Tongmai and Yunling. Obviously, she has the opportunity to step into the Huangting realm early like my fiancée. .”
"Squeak!"
The constantly shaking recliner slowly stopped.
Qin An, the nominal shopkeeper of Lingbaozhai, looked unkind, and said coldly: "What does my lady's practice have to do with you?"
Zhao Dongsheng's small soybean-like eyes also shot out a cold light, and a wave of spiritual power as thick as a mountain suddenly enveloped Yu Yuan.
In an instant, Yu Yuan's straight back was forced to bend.
Zhao Dongsheng slowly walked down from the reclining chair. After being tall and straight, he was actually a head taller than Yu Yuan at this time, like a towering mountain of flesh, giving people a strong sense of oppression.
"I don't need Young Master Yu to worry about my little girl's practice." He twitched the corner of his mouth contemptuously.
A majestic and powerful force suddenly came oppressively!
Yu Yuan snorted, his knees couldn't bear it, and he bent suddenly, and when he was about to kneel down, he suddenly shouted: "Uncle Zhao, have you ever heard of the so-called 'raising young dragons' in Yinlong Lake? "
The pressure of terror was instantly released.
Yu Yuan took a breath, stood up straight again, looked at the second generation helm of the Zhao family, "I came here with sincerity, and the reason why I dare to be empty-handed is because I know that Uncle Zhao really needs you." What is it."
"Hidden Dragon Lake, raising baby dragons, what are you talking about?" Qin An wondered.
"You go to the front yard, and no one is allowed to come in, including you!" Zhao Dongsheng's face was dark, and his hands, which were wearing seven rings, were clenched and loosened from time to time, "Follow me!" He went straight to the back yard away from the wing.
He didn't take a second look at the Lilong scissors on the jade countertop, and the obviously valuable jade plaque and iron ruler.
Yu Yuan followed behind.
"How do you know about Hidden Dragon Lake?!"
In the wing room in the backyard, Zhao Dongsheng was visibly agitated. The landscape paintings hanging on the wooden walls, as he spoke, released a brilliant light.
With just one glance, Yu Yuan knew that there was a secret formation in this wing that could isolate the sound and detect spiritual consciousness.
People who are not in the Yinshen realm have no way to overhear the words that happened in the wing room through their spiritual consciousness.
"I want to know, did Yinlong Lake get permission from your Zhao family to warm up the young dragon's soul that was raised in Ling'ai's body?" Yu Yuan asked without answering, "This question is very important!"
Zhao Dongsheng's expression changed, "What do you know?"
"Uncle Zhao, please answer my question first!" Yu Yuan calmed down completely. He had already seen that because of his daughter's troubles, the second generation leader of the Zhao family was in a mess.
Zhao Dongsheng hesitated for a long time, then nodded slightly.
"Hey, I got permission." Yu Yuan smiled, "So, the real backer behind your Zhao family is Yinlong Lake."
"You can say that." Zhao Dongsheng didn't hide anything, "Since you know the hidden dragon lake, the so-called 'raising young dragons', and the predicament faced by the little girl Yafu, how dare you stand in front of me and boast ..."
Zhao Dongsheng's arms were crossed on his chest, and his dangerous aura soared, "Then, if you don't have a satisfactory explanation for me, I'm afraid I won't be able to let you leave alive."
"The real body is not here, but the young dragon whose soul is nourished in Ling Ai's body should be dead." Yu Yuan smiled, with a relaxed expression, "You know, and Ling Ai also knows , but Yinlong Lake may not necessarily know. The young dragon died outside, leaving only a wisp of spirit. If Yinlonghu knew, he would sacrifice his daughter, and use that wisp of spirit and the dragon blood hidden earlier to help that Will the young dragon regenerate?"
Zhao Dongsheng's expression was as usual, and with his eyes, he motioned for him to continue talking.
"You, or your Zhao family, don't want to sacrifice Zhao Yafu, but also want to secretly carry out the plan of 'swallowing the dragon' behind Yinlonghu's back, but that's it?" Yu Yuan shouted deeply.
"So what?" Zhao Dongsheng grinned grinningly.
No matter how prosperous Yu Yuan is these days, he is ready to kill Yu Yuan here.
If the Zhao family plans to implement the "Dragon Swallowing" plan, if the news leaks out and Yinlong Lake knows about it, the family may be destroyed. He will never allow this, and even the slightest accident will happen!
"Isn't it 'Tunlong'?" Yu Yuan chuckled, "Uncle Zhao, trust me, I can help you!"
