"Uncle Hu, I want to sleep for a while, you can rest well." Before Uncle Hu went out, Zhou Jin yawned and ordered with a smile.

Hu Bo was stunned and asked solemnly: "Young Master, don't you need the old slave to guard?"

"Bo Hu, you have been tired for so many days, and it's time to have a good rest. No one in the Zhou family can threaten me now." Zhou Jin said with a smile.

Hu Bo was shocked when he heard this and looked at Zhou Jin. He found that Zhou Jin looked calm, but this calm expression contained a sense of confidence and domineeringness. Hu Bo suddenly felt a lot of emotion. The young master dozens of days ago was arbitrary, cowardly, incompetent, and no one cared about death. Many tribe members said that it would be better to die, but the young master is now welcomed by mighty people. The tribe members all believed that the young master was the hope and pillar of the Zhou family in the future.

When Ming Zhao made his mark, Hu Bo felt something was wrong. He instinctively felt that Ming Zhao had ulterior motives and wanted to usurp the Zhou family's foundation. Hu Bo was vigilant, but he was powerless in the face of the powerful and outstanding Ming Zhao, and he couldn't even protect the young master. He was so anxious and nervous that the young master Zhou Jin suddenly cheered up and changed. Not only did he crack Ming Zhao's conspiracy, but he also took decisive action and directly eliminated the threat from the Zhou family.

"If Madam can know that the young master is so outstanding today, Madam will be in peace under the scent of the sky..." Hu Bo said with a sob, feeling extremely moved.

Zhou Jin suddenly felt uncomfortable. Few people in the Zhou family mentioned the head's wife. Zhou Jin did not have much memories of her mother because the head's wife passed away very early, but when she mentioned it, she felt sad unconsciously surging.

Hu Bo wiped the corner of his eyes with his hand. The loyal old servant had already moved and was silent for a while. Hu Bo Qiang smiled and said, "I always like to think about the past when I am old. The young master is so outstanding now. This is the blessing of the Zhou family. Our Zhou family will definitely carry forward the future!"

Zhou Jin and Hu Bo sighed here. Although the atmosphere was a little sad, it was actually similar to crying with joy, because the joyful event could not help but feel the feelings brought by the great joy.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the Qiu family in Black Stone City was extremely dull. The Qiu family members all looked sad and walked around and did things carefully.

Because they all knew that the head of the family and the young master were in a very bad mood, and if they were not careful, they would be affected by anger. A clan member said a wrong sentence when reporting the matter, and three ribs were broken by the head of the family. The injury probably took half a year to heal.

The reason why the father and son of the Qiu family were worried and depressed was very simple. The position of the Black Stone City Lord Qiu family had no hope at all. Qiu Zhenggang thought that he had made a breakthrough in seclusion. After leaving the seclusion, the martial arts realm was far superior to that of the Zhou family and the Meng family, and he could easily seize the position of the city lord, but he did not expect that the Zhou family's head Zhou Yang's realm actually jumped to that level. Although the two sides did not fight openly at the celebration, they confronted each other and Zhou Jin's martial arts competition, these all show that the strength of the Zhou family is now, and the two sides are no longer on the same level.

The position of the city lord must be hopeless. What made the Qiu family's father and son feel the blow was that Zhou Jin, the waste from the Zhou family, became so outstanding. Zhou Jin defeated Qiu Wenwei with one move, and Zhou Jin injured Wu Jinbiao. Everyone can compare that he is stronger than Qiu Wenwei.

Qiu Wenwei didn't pay much attention to Ming Zhao's strength. After all, he was just a disciple of the Zhou family's foreign surname, but Zhou Jin's strength was completely different. He meant that the Qiu family would be suppressed by the Zhou family in the competition of the next generation, not to mention that after Zhou Yang became the city lord, the resources of Black Stone City would be greatly tilted towards the Zhou family, and Zhou Jin's advantage over Qiu Wenwei would be further extended.

Not to mention the combination of Meng Xinxin and Qiu Wenwei, what kind of pressure will the two major families in the city become an alliance with Zhou and Meng.

Anyone who is a little smarter can infer that under the current situation, the Qiu family will not be able to turn over for a hundred years, and will lose little by little, and may even be annexed.

Qiu Zhenggang and Qiu Wenwei, the head of the Qiu family, sat there silently and confronted each other. Both of them were decisive in their killing character, but there was no way at this time. Qiu Wenwei even remembered that when Zhou Jin defeated him with one move, he revealed the truth about the assassin behind him, and the shocking killing at the celebration. The young master of Qiu family did not even dare to recall the murderous intent, and he would feel cold all over when he thought of it.

The two were silent for a while, and Qiu Wenwei said, "Father, instead of being angry in this Black Stone City, it is better for the entire clan to move out. It is a dead end here, and there will be a chance of moving out!"

Qiu Zhenggang, the head of the Qiu family, sighed and said in a deep voice: "Move out, our Qiu family has been in this Black Stone City for generations, and its roots are here. Will the Qiu family still be the Qiu family after moving away?"

Qiu Wenwei was silent for a while, slammed the table and stood up, and said coldly: "If you don't move, you will be squeezed by the Zhou family. The waste already knows that the child sent an assassin, and may not be able to retaliate in the future. We don't want to destroy the clan, so we can only move away."

Speaking of this, Qiu Wenwei raised his voice and gritted his teeth and said, "Otherwise, I will go to Wen Tiannian, and there will be a way out!"

"Traveling to him, that man wants to hold all five cities in his hands, that's not as good as it is now." Qiu Zhenggang shook his head and said.

"Then he also needs someone to take care of the evil spirits..." Qiu Wenwei said halfway, and a guard ran to the door in a hurry.

When his words were interrupted, Qiu Wenwei's face suddenly fell. Now he was angry and was about to teach this unsightly subordinate a lesson. The guard said breathlessly: "Master, young master, someone outside claims to be the leader of the Five City Alliance and wants to see the head of the family."

When Qiu Zhenggang and Qiu Wenwei heard this, they were stunned. There was such a coincidence. It was just that Wen Tiannian was here.

The father and son of the Qiu family immediately realized that Wen Tiannian, the leader of the Five City Alliance, would come to any city in five cities, and would bring his followers with him with great fanfare. The city would also hold a grand ceremony to welcome him. Why didn’t I receive any news today? And the celebration has just passed a few days, why did it come again?

"How many people came?" "Only one came!"

The father and son of the Qiu family were even more surprised. The leader was traveling and had many guards and followers. Why did he come alone? This was too strange, but it was impossible for someone to pretend to be a pretender.

"Come in quickly, please go to the living room!" Qiu Zhenggang, the head of the Qiu family, said immediately.

The guard quickly turned around, and the father and son of the Qiu family looked at each other, and stood up to greet him.

Not long after, the guard led the man into the living room. The man was wearing an ordinary green cloth gown and a hat that covered his wind and sand to cover his head and face, and looked like the most ordinary merchant.

Despite the cover, the father and son of the Qiu family immediately recognized that this person was the leader of the alliance Wen Tiannian. Both father and son were shocked. What did the leader of the Five City Alliance come to the Qiu family alone?

Before the Qiu family's father and son could speak, Wen Tiannian whispered: "Don't make a statement with you, please keep the news of my visit here confidential."

The head of the family Qiu Zhenggang looked at Qiu Wenwei. Qiu Wenwei called the Qiu family guard who brought Wen Tiannian and asked, "Who else knows the identity of this guest except you?"

"Only the villain knows it himself." The guard replied respectfully.

"You will be confined to ten days from now on. You must not talk to others within these ten days, otherwise you will die. Do you understand?" Qiu Wenwei ordered coldly.

The guard quickly bowed and took the order, turned around and left, and Qiu Wenwei said again: "No one is allowed to get close to this place."

Someone from afar outside agreed, and the surroundings quickly became silent. It was not until this time that Wen Tiannian, the leader of the Five City Alliance, took off his hat. It could be seen that he had made a simple disguise. However, the father and son of the Qiu family immediately confirmed that this was the leader of the Five City Alliance. The two of them hurriedly met. Wen Tiannian smiled and came forward to support him, and praised him, "Wen Wei's virtuous nephew is a young talent. If you manage your family like a military, you will definitely have a bright future in the future!"

Such praise made the father and son of the Qiu family even more confused. All the servants were sent away, so Qiu Wenwei had to bring tea and water to receive the guests. Qiu Zhenggang, the head of the Qiu family, said with a dry smile: "I don't know that the leader is coming, and the reception of the guests is simple, which makes the leader laugh!"

"I have already said that, don't be polite, everyone is all their own people." Wen Tiannian said again with a smile, then looked aloof, and said, "My brother has a strong personality and is just a decisive person. I feel wronged to be the head of the family. I think my brother should have a higher position!"

If you are at a higher position than the head of the family, then you will naturally be the city lord. Speaking of this, the head of the Qiu family suddenly looked ugly and said coldly: "Leader, you and I are all present on the day of the celebration, why bother such insincere words?"

That day they all saw the strength shown by Zhou Yang, the head of the Zhou family. Qiu Zhenggang believed that he was not an opponent, and Wen Tiannian also saw this scene with his own eyes, so saying such things now is equivalent to being naked and viciously humiliated.

The leader Wen Tiannian was not angry at such a rebuttal. He still smiled and said, "Brother, the competition for the city lord has not been held yet. How do you know that it is not you who won the title and became the city lord?"

Everyone was not stupid. When Wen Tiannian said this, the father and son of the Qiu family looked at each other and immediately reacted. Qiu Zhenggang laughed dryly and said, "I am impatient. If you have any disrespect, please forgive me. However, Zhou Yang is very powerful and has no chance of winning!"

Finally, he got to the point. Wen Tiannian, the leader of the Five City Alliance, turned serious and said solemnly: "Brother Qiu, I have a way to double your strength in a short period of time, and not be afraid of Zhou Yang of the Zhou family. What do you think?"

"The strength doubles in a short period of time." The head of the Qiu family lit up, but he calmed down immediately. As a warrior, everyone knows that martial arts strength cannot be fraudulent. It is not impossible to increase the short term, but it will inevitably pay a heavy price. The head of the Qiu family asked calmly: "Please explain in detail by the leader of the alliance."

Qiu Zhenggang's reaction was also expected by the leader Wen Tiannian. He reached out and took out a black wooden box that was inch square from his arms. After opening it, there was a pill the size of a thumb and flashing red.

After seeing this pill, the eyes of the father and son of the Qiu family immediately condensed. Wen Tiannian smiled and said, "The skill you practice is fire. You can definitely feel the fiery power in this pill!"

The father and son of the Qiu family nodded slowly, Qiu Wenwei leaned into his father Qiu Zhenggang's ear and said, "I'm afraid it's the Yan Jing, the medicine is too strong, it's the tiger and wolf medicine."

"This is the 'Nine-Turn Red Flame Pill'. The raw material is the flame crystal in the volcano. It is similar to the martial arts attributes of your Qiu family. Brother, I will not hide it from you. After taking this pill, you will break through two realms in a row and your strength will increase sharply, but this effect can only last for one month. After one month, your strength will return to its original state, and there will be no damage to your body. However, the martial arts realm will never be improved again and will always remain at the level before taking the medicine." The leader Wen Tiannian stared at the head of the Qiu family and said sincerely.

After the warrior broke through the "Rain Realm", each realm was a peak, and one was even taller than the other. It was extremely difficult to climb over the other. The realm and realm were completely different. Many so-called "geniuses" stayed in the "Thick Earth Realm" and could not survive. On the other side, many people were limited there. The current head of the Qiu family was only in the early stage of the "Solid Stone Realm", but this elixir could actually allow him to break through continuously and reach the "Gold Transformation Realm". The increase was too amazing.

But the consequences were also shocking. Qiu Zhenggang was less than fifty years old, which was the golden age of a warrior. His martial arts realm was still unlimited. However, after taking this pill, his short-term strength surged, he would always stagnate before taking the medicine. This would be the case for a warrior who pursued a stronger quest than killing him.

"Father, I can't agree!" Qiu Wenwei, the young master of the Qiu family, shouted directly without regard for etiquette.

"Father! You are in your prime and your martial arts practice is still moving forward. You can't ruin your life for a while, Father!" Qiu Wenwei raised his voice even more when he saw Qiu Zhenggang hesitating.

"Rareless, there is no room for you to speak here!" Qiu Zhenggang scolded, and Qiu Wenwei was stunned because in the Qiu family, his father always respected his opinions and rarely scolded him like this.

Qiu Zhenggang, the head of the Qiu family, stared at the pill and was silent for a while, nodded slowly, and said, "I want this medicine. I don't know what the leader wants?"

Although this pill is harmful to the body, Qiu Zhenggang knew that if he could not refine such pills, he would have to pay other prices if he wanted to get them.

Wen Tiannian, the leader of the Five City Alliance, smiled on his face and said gently: "Since my brother wants it, I will give it to me. As for what I want, I can also tell you clearly. I want you to be the leader of the Black Stone City. If you don't want Zhou Yang to do it, I want this!"

Zhou Yang became stronger, and the Zhou family and the Meng family got married and married. What did this mean to Black Stone City for the Five City Alliance? Anyone who is interested understands. When the leader Wen Tiannian said this, Qiu Zhenggang immediately understood that Qiu Wenwei wanted to continue to argue, but Qiu Zhenggang stared at him and immediately did not dare to say it again.

"Please rest assured, I will strive to win!" Qiu Zhenggang, the head of the Qiu family, said loudly.

The leader Wen Tiannian smiled and nodded, then said in a solemn voice: "Brother Qiu is fighting for victory. If the scene is close and there is no way to decide the outcome, I will decide!"

This is very clear. If the scene is controversial, Wen Tiannian, the leader of the Five Cities Alliance, is qualified to arbitrate, and he will definitely be biased towards the Qiu family.

Qiu Zhenggang nodded and agreed. Wen Tiannian smiled and put the pill on the table. He said leisurely: "The pill was refined yesterday, and today the medicine is the best. I will say goodbye first."

Qiu Wenwei suppressed his temper and sent the leader Wen Tiannian, who brought the hat to the Qiu family. Then he hurried back to the living room. When he entered the house, he happened to see the head of the family Qiu Zhenggang holding the elixir in his hand to look at it.

"Father, you can't ruin this life for this moment. Let's wait a little longer, let's move out, there is still a chance!" Without outsiders, Qiu Wenwei no longer spoke without any scruples and shouted loudly.

Qiu Zhenggang held the pill in his hand, and his face was shining with the red light of the pill, which seemed to be flashing and changing. Qiu Zhenggang slowly spoke, "When you wait, the Zhou family will continue to become stronger. If you move out, our family will completely decline. You are a genius in our Qiu family that is rare in a century. You have this level of realm now. In a few years, I think we will achieve even greater success. Now the Qiu family can still satisfy you and support you. In a few years, the Qiu family will not be enough. It requires the resources of Black Stone City!"

For martial artists to practice and break through the martial arts realm, unless they have secret books to adventure elixirs or geniuses like Yun Tianzong, they will have to spend a lot of financial and manpower to succeed. Therefore, the "Scale Armored Shark Guard" in the Northern Region Blue Port will be so popular because the Northern Region Blue Port has enough financial and material resources to support the training of the warriors. The city lords of the Five-City Alliance will of course tilt the city resources towards their own family and their relatives, let alone the support the city lords' sons receive.

"I know for my father's realm, and there will be no major breakthrough. You are different. You have a bright future. For your future, I bet on this time for my father!" Qiu Zhenggang finished speaking loudly, raised his hand and swallowed the pill.

"Father!" Qiu Wenwei, the young master of the Qiu family, burst into tears and knelt heavily on the ground. He did not expect that his father would do this for himself, destroy martial arts practice for his future, and exchange his father's future for his son's future.

As soon as Qiu Zhenggang swallowed the "Nine-Turn Red Flame Pill", he couldn't help but stand up. His exposed skin was full of flame-like red. Now these reds began to emit a blazing light, just like burning flames, more like human forms condensed from magma.

The temperature in the living room was getting higher and higher. Qiu Zhenggang's clothes had turned into ashes. The wooden furniture began to emit blue smoke, and a small flame was ignited. Qiu Zhenggang's eyes had turned bright golden yellow, like melted molten iron.

Qiu Wenwei's clothes, kneeling on the ground, turned into ashes, his sweat couldn't help but flowed down and then evaporated instantly, but Qiu Wenwei didn't care about so much and stared at his father in a daze. He had never seen such a scene, had never seen the Qiu family reach such a state, and had never seen the flame technique reach such a level!

There was already a raging fire in the living room. Qiu Zhenggang closed his eyes, and flames ignited on his body. Qiu Wenwei could see that the lines of these flames were the meridians and veins in the body. The flames seemed to be born from the body, converging inside and outside, and then sank into the body.

The fire became increasingly fierce, and the Qiu family had already rushed over to put out the fire, but before they got close, they heard the young master shouting in the fired house, "No one can get close, those who violate the order will die!"

Everyone stopped immediately and did not dare to step forward. The Qiu family also knew that the Qiu family's flame technique had reached a certain level and was not afraid of flames at all.

All the flames ignited on Qiu Zhenggang's body disappeared into his body, and his body emitted a brighter and brighter red light. Qiu Zhenggang suddenly opened his eyes. His eyes were clearly black and white, and the golden brightness had disappeared. At the moment when he opened his eyes, the flames burning in the house suddenly burned towards Qiu Zhenggang's body, as if there was a whirlpool attracting it!

The Qiu family members who were watching outside thought that the fire was about to spread and the entire house would turn into ashes, but suddenly, all the flames disappeared without a trace. The living room instantly turned into ashes, and then collapsed, ashes splashed everywhere. Everyone was afraid of being burned, but those who could not avoid were stained by the ashes, but found that there was no heat at all, as if they had been extinguished for a long time.

There were two naked men in the ashes, one standing and the other kneeling, both of them froze. Suddenly, the person standing laughed loudly, and the laughter seemed to rolling magma. Amid the laughter, the buildings of the Qiu family's mansion trembled, and amid the laughter, the man kneeling on the ground howled.

That night, outsiders only knew that there was a fire in the Qiu family. It was not new to the Qiu family's fire, because the martial arts practiced by their family often ignite flames. Everyone is familiar with it. No one really knows what happened in the Qiu family.

When Zhou Jin killed Ming Zhao back home, he had internal and external injuries, but in less than a day and a night, his injuries were basically healed. The so-called "thick soil is solid and invisible" is the truth. After the warrior breaks through to the "thick soil realm", his ability to heal himself will be greatly enhanced.

The Zhou family was wondering where Ming Zhao was going. After he finished his confinement, he did not return to the Zhou Mansion in the city, and it seemed to have completely disappeared. Ming Luo was anxious as if an ant on a hot pan, and he didn't know what to do. He was extremely panicked and decided that the city lord's competition was a major event for the Zhou family, and Ming Zhao needed a lot of it. The head of the family Zhou Yang specially sent someone to the mine manor outside the city to inquire. After learning that Ming Zhao had finished his confinement, he left normally.

A living person, and a talent with excellent martial arts and excellent wisdom, disappeared out of thin air? Moreover, Ming Zhao never did anything randomly, and would not go anywhere else by his temper. Such a strange situation makes people anxious.

But it is decided that the city lord's competition is approaching, which is the most important thing for the major families in the city. The Zhou family cannot send a large number of people to find it, so they can only arrange Ming Zhao's personal servant Ming Luo to go out to inspect it.

"Ming Luo won't come back this time!" After hearing the news, Zhou Jin analyzed to Hu Bo: "Ming Zhao is gone, Ming Luo must know that it is not good. If he has a little brain, he will not come back."

Ming Zhao will never act randomly. This kind of sudden disappearance after confinement must mean that extreme things will happen. People from the Zhou family can think of it, and Ming Luo can think of it.

Hearing the young master say this, Hu Bo immediately said: "Ming Luo is Ming Zhao's confidant, and must know a lot of secrets. In the dirty methods against the young master, this person participated a lot. The old slave went out of the city to search and catch the dog thief back and questioned."
Chapter completed!
