Chapter 374 Sacrifice
The cliff is steep, the waves are crashing on the shore, the tide is rising and falling, and the sound of rolling waves is a beautiful scenery.
On the cliff sits an extremely luxurious and splendid house. This is where the main residence of the Zhao family is located.
The sound of waves that used to be leisurely and comfortable now seemed a bit harsh, making Zhao Guangxian irritable.
He looked at the old man sitting in the living room and asked respectfully: "Uncle, is there any other way to wake up Zicheng?"
Seeing that the old man didn't answer, Zhao Guangxian looked slightly flustered and said: "Nowadays, there are frequent chaos in the world. Even our family may be in danger of decline if there is no successor and without the blessing of Lord Greedy Wolf Star."
This old man is one of the actual leaders of the Zhao family. He has the peak strength of the Four Spirits, and he was also the one who strongly supported Zhao Guangxian as the head of the family.
He sighed and said: "I have watched this kid Zicheng since he was a child. How could I sit back and watch him behave like this."
He stared at Zhao Guangxian and said coldly: " As the head of the Zhao family, you have not given up the branches and leaves of the Zhao family. You have only left two bloodlines, and there is one that you can't control. What the head of the family asked you to do is really..."
Hearing this, Zhao Guangxian glanced at Bai Jinse quietly. It was precisely because Bai Jinse was too strong that he did not dare to be presumptuous. Although he had concubines, none of them gave birth to children.
Even Tang Yuan's birth was an accident.
After Tang Yuan was sent away, Zhao Guangxian no longer dared to make any other moves. Except for the two of them, there was no other direct bloodline.
Bai Jinse also knew that he was in the wrong, so he hurriedly said: "Uncle, do you really have no other way? If that's the case, even if I offend that little girl, I will save my child."
The old man touched his beard and sighed: "For this secret method, the closer the bloodline is, the greater the success rate, so when I started, I would choose the direct brothers from Zicheng."
< br> "In this way, the risk will be relatively low. You may only lose your cultivation level, and there is at most a 10% chance of death. But if you use branch blood, not only will the success rate decrease." The old man sighed, "The mortality rate will be even higher. It will reach 100%, and it will take at least ten people to affect Greedy Wolf Star.”
Hearing this, Zhao Guangxian fell silent. Even if he was a side disciple and had to sacrifice ten people at once, even if he was the head of the family, it would be extremely difficult to implement it and he would definitely be strongly opposed by his clan members.
The old man sighed and said: "Zicheng is my bloodline, so are others? This matter is left to the head of the family to decide, and I will not interfere anymore."
Said After that, he left the place and went out the door.
The only two people left in the hall were Bai Jinse and Zhao Guangxian, who were relatively speechless. Whether they risked offending the Suzaku Favorite or used their own direct lineage to operate, the price they paid would not be small.
It was Bai Jinse who broke the silence, "No matter which method you choose, as long as you can save Zicheng, otherwise I will not give up."
Zhao Guangxian was silent for a while, "We can't let Zicheng get into trouble with the great enemy of the Vermilion Bird Favorite for no reason!"
Bai Jinse said slowly: "I remember that the two uncles and the fourth uncle had many incompetent children, didn't they? ? After Zicheng fell into a coma, they were very active, so let’s operate on them. "
...
Nanjiang City, somewhere underground.
As the smoke disappeared, someone said: "Third Young Master, I have already taken care of the person you are targeting."
The young man who was hugging him suddenly sat up straight and asked curiously: "Isn't she willing to die rather than surrender and just want to be a chaste and martyr woman? How did you do it?"
The middle-aged man smiled flatteringly: " Her husband lost everything in our business, so he sold her to me, and he signed the deed in front of her. He was so sad that he naturally agreed. "
Youth Photos. He patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "What a good idea. I saw you right."
"It all depends on the cultivation of the young master!" The middle-aged man said with joy, "Then I will bring her here?" "
The young man laughed and said, "What are you waiting for? Master, I am in high spirits today. I must train this fierce woman well." After giving a few instructions, the middle-aged man sat back and asked. Said: "Young master, good things have happened to you recently, and I am in a good mood."
The young man nodded, "The eldest brother is unconscious, and the third uncle has no other heirs. Do you think I can be unhappy!"
"Greed... Lord Greedy Wolf Star, he is really Are you unconscious?" the middle-aged man asked cautiously, "I've heard such rumors too."
"There's no need to be so careful," the young man said proudly, "The people present are all members of his family." Frankly speaking, if eldest brother is not here, who else can be the head of the Zhao family besides me?"
The middle-aged man raised his glass and drank it down, "If the young master becomes the head of the family, so will we brothers. It’s a joy to think that the chicken and the dog have ascended to heaven!”
While he was talking, the door was pushed open and a quiet young woman walked in.
The young man patted his side, and the woman on the left muttered: "The young master really likes the new and hates the old."
"You little girl, haven't you been satisfied recently? Aren't you afraid of being so clingy to me? Is the novelty gone?”
Although he said this casually, the woman was shocked and said with a smile: “I am just acting coquettishly with you, young master.”
On the other hand. As he said that, he obediently gave up his position.
The elegant woman came over and sat down obediently.
The young man pinched her face and said with a smile: "I still like your chaste look at the beginning. What did this young master say? In this Nanjiang City, what Zhao Zigui likes must be It belongs to me, Zhao Zigui."
In front of everyone, Zhao Zigui started to move. Just when he had just untied the woman's bra, a sharp knife pierced his chest with a cold light. .
Unfortunately, he failed to make any achievements, so he was slapped to the ground by Zhao Zigui.
"I am the Sixth Star Master. Do you really think these little tricks can satisfy me?" Zhao Zigui said with a sinister smile, "I am just trying to have more fun!"
"Originally I planned to let your husband go, but now..." There was a heart-stopping cruelty in his eyes, "I want him to see with his own eyes how I trained you, and then let you see how I How did you set up your husband!"
"Scum!" The elegant young woman took a sip and hissed, "You will be punished!"
"Retribution!" He laughed wildly, "In this Nanjiang City, in the whole south, who can make me get retribution!"
Before he finished speaking, the door of the private room was suddenly pushed open again.
Zhao Zigui was about to get angry, but he saw the face of Zhao Sanqiong, the chief steward of the Zhao Mansion, "Steward Zhao, do you have..."
Zhao Sanqiong glanced at him coldly, waved his hand, "Take them all away!"
......
Tang Yuan, who was far away in Jiu Ming City, didn't expect that because he didn't do anything for him. The "righteous sacrifice" caused the death of more than a dozen dandies from the direct line of the Zhao family, but in any case, they were just doing things to eliminate harm for the people.
After Fallen Princess and others each found their own wise kings, the war in the entire world stopped for a moment, but it was like the calm before the storm, only building up a bigger storm.
And Tang Yuan finally ushered in the end of his dormant period.
