Chapter 267 - Shi Family's Action
"Yes! That's it. Why don't you take it and see for yourself." Teacher Li smiled, then handed the newspaper to Yun Fang.
Yun Fang took it and carefully read that news, and a comforting smile gradually appeared on her face, as if a big stone had been put down in her heart.
Because, she learned from Yun Ren's mouth, it seems that there are some mysterious people who know evil magic, involved in the child abduction case a few days ago.
Therefore, there has always been a layer of hidden worry in her heart, restless, afraid that those mysterious evil people will suddenly appear and snatch her daughter away again.
However, after seeing the news today, she was completely relieved.
The child abduction cult has been completely destroyed, and even the cult leader was killed, so her daughter, Yun Ren, is naturally no longer in danger of being snatched away.
Yun Fang's heart is also slightly suspicious, according to Yun Ren's narrative, those cultists should be very powerful, but surprisingly easily destroyed by the police, which really makes people feel a bit unbelievable.
In addition, the police did not seem to indicate how many police officers, in fact, were injured in this operation.
Yun Fang, with a woman's keen intuition, thought that the inside story might not be as simple as reported in the newspaper, and that the police would not be able to succeed in one fell swoop without the help of people from the cultivation community.
Of course, this is only Yun Fang's personal speculation, she did not how to connect Zhao Rui and this matter together.
However, no matter what the inside story was, Yun Fang felt that it had nothing to do with herself, as long as Yun Ren was safe, that was enough.
Yun Fang took the hanging hair and gently stroked it behind her ear, revealing a small section of her fair neck and crystal-like ears. Then she handed the newspaper back to Teacher Li and smiled gently at him, her eyes flowing with rhythm: "Thank you for the newspaper, this is indeed a very interesting news."
Mr. Li was surprised by her unintentional lustful color, and actually froze for a moment, until Zhao Rui tapped his shoulder. It was only when Zhao Rui tapped him on the shoulder to remind him that he came back to his senses. Realizing that he had lost his temper, he could not help but dryly cough and hurriedly took the newspaper, then sighed quietly at Zhao Rui and said, "Teacher Zhao. You are really blessed!"
Zhao Rui took a look at Yun Fang's beautiful and mature face and had to admit that teacher Li had a point.
The next period of time was relatively calm.
Zhao Rui every day after work, will seize the time to cultivate "Eight Desolate Killing Immortal Technique".
Although the progress of cultivation was now much slower compared to before.
However, as long as he is persistent, he will one day be able to break through the pre-birth period and enter the mid-birth period.
In addition. In the rest time, he will sometimes take out the mysterious magic box, while playing with it. While carefully looking for a way to open it.
Although this magic box was so hard that even the Bloodthirsty Devil Blade was not able to shatter it, but since it could be forged, it could definitely be opened. Zhao Rui had a few expectations. The item stored in this magic box. What kind of magic item is it.
Shanghai, South Lake Road. A foreign house built in the Republic of China.
Shi Yongcheng sat on the mahogany chair in the study, holding a threadbare "Vajra Sutra", slowly watching.
The faint sandalwood incense, curling up from the bronze incense burner of the royal family of the Zhou Dynasty, fills the whole space.
Winter has arrived, the outdoor temperature is already very low, but the interior is as warm as spring, even the dragon well that has been on the desk for half a day, still steaming hot.
The study is very quiet, quiet as if even a pin dropped on the ground, can hear clearly.
Shi Yongcheng read the words on the book quietly, turning the pages he had read slowly, seemingly intoxicated by the fragrance of the book.
Suddenly, without warning, he put the "Vajra Sutra" in his hand and heaved it onto the table.
The sound of impact in this quiet study room, seems exceptionally abrupt and loud.
Shi Yongcheng's originally seemingly calm face, now appearing irritable look.
He was so bored in his heart that even the Vajra Sutra could not calm him down.
In fact, Shi Yongcheng's boredom was not just a day or two ago.
Ever since the operation to assassinate Yun Fang's mother and daughter failed again and again, the boredom in his heart was increasing day by day. He really did not understand who was protecting Yun Fang and Yun Ren in secret, taking out his assassins one by one!
Shi Yongcheng stood up from his seat, with his hands behind his back, and turned back and forth in the study several times.
In fact, he was worried about more than just Yun Fang and Yun Ren's mother and daughter. Although the mother and daughter are the direct relatives of the former head of the Shi family, but the orphans and widows, even if they inherited the head of the family, can not make any big waves, the family real power, or in his hands.
What Shi Yongcheng really worried about is that the force behind Yun Fang and Yun Ren ---- Dongan Yun family.
Although the cloud family is only an ancient martial arts family, and the cultivation of the world's famous Shi family, completely incomparable.
However, the Dongan Yun family has a heavy family history, in the cultivation world, also has a lot of friends.
If, indeed, Yun Ren ascended to the throne of the Shi family head, and the Yun family fully supported it, then the privileges in his hands, sooner or later, would be taken away by Yun Ren, and his position and power in the family, would be marginalized!
In fact, he had always suspected that the mysterious figure who was secretly protecting Yun Fang and Yun Ren was only invited by Yun Xiong, after all, he was Yun Fang's father and Yun Ren's grandfather, and had enough reasons to do so.
Shi Yongcheng absolutely will not allow his power to be so easily snatched by others.
Because, this is not only about the interests, but also about his family's life!
His appearance looks only forty years old, but in fact, has already passed the ancient age.
Although the life of a cultivator, longer than the average person, but, if he is not able to have a further breakthrough in the path of cultivation, his life will come to an end in a couple of hundred years.
However, if he grasps the great position of the Shi family head, then, using the cultivation resources of the whole clan, his cultivation might still be able to continue to refine and enter the out-of-body stage!
His life expectancy would be greatly extended!
With the stakes at stake, how could he be willing to surrender the power in his hands!
"Knock, knock, knock."
A knock on the door suddenly sounded at this time, interrupting Shi Yongcheng's thoughts.
Shi Yongcheng took a deep breath, trying to restore his face to calm, and then called out in a majestic voice: "Come in!"
The door was pushed open, and a man who looked a bit like him, but slightly younger, entered the study, then called out, "Big brother."
"Yonglian, why are you here? Aren't you still abroad on business?"
Shi Yongcheng looked a little surprised to see his own brother, suddenly appear.
"My sister-in-law heard that you seem to be a bit bored lately, so she ended things over there early and came back to see, what is it that makes you so upset?"
Shi Yonglian was not only Shi Yongcheng's younger brother, but also his right hand man, so he didn't hide it and said fiercely, "It's not that matter of Yun Fang. That woman is like a thorn in my flesh, I can't get it out, and it hurts me so much."
Shi Yonglian knew the whole thing like the back of his hand and naturally knew what his elder brother meant, so he laughed and said, "Since we can't get rid of this thorn for the time being. I think we might as well meet with Yunfang, talk to her, find out what she's up to, and find out what she intends to do. If you know yourself and your enemy, you will never lose a battle. However, we do not know her at all, do not know her intentions, and do not know her strength, some passive ah!"
Shi Yongcheng was taken aback: "We go to East Lake personally? That's Yun Fang's territory!"
Shi Yonglian looked at him twice, then asked, "What's wrong, big brother? Are you afraid that Yun Fang will turn against you?"
Shi Yongcheng did not hide in front of Shi Yonglian and nodded and said in a deep voice, "Yun Fang is escorted by a mysterious powerhouse, and several of the assassins we sent there have already fallen into the hands of that mysterious powerhouse. If we rashly enter the East Lake, when the time comes, Yun Fang suddenly strikes at us, what should we do?"
Shi Yonglian suddenly shook his head and smiled, "Big brother, you are too much worried. I think that we have absolutely nothing to fear from that powerful person who has never shown his face."
"Oh? Why?" Shi Yongcheng hurriedly asked a follow-up question.
"It's simple. We have sent so many assassins to the East Lake to assassinate Yun Fang. That mysterious strong man who escorted Yun Fang's mother and daughter is only afraid that he already knows that we are the mastermind behind them. If that strong man was really powerful enough to have no fear, he would have come to Shanghai long ago and finished us off, so why stay by Yun Fang's side and protect her secretly. How passive would that be? I estimate that the strength of that mysterious strong man is at the same level as us, or at most one line higher than us. However, compared to our three Shi family ancestors, it is definitely greatly inferior. We just go to the East Lake, as long as the three ancestors of the clan are there, we won't have any risk."
Shi Yongcheng still had some hesitation: "The three ancestors have not explicitly stated that they support me to become the Shi family head!"
Shi Yonglian smiled faintly, "But they will definitely not sit back and watch a senior member of the family, like you, take any risks!"
The doubts in Shi Yongcheng's heart were completely lifted at this point, and he waved his hand, then said, "Good, we'll leave for East Lake tomorrow!"
