Time can dilute many things.

After so many years, Jiang Lan actually doesn't have much hatred for her father anymore, but she is still stubborn in her heart, waiting for him to apologize.

Hearing Qi Canglan's words today, Jiang Lan felt very uncomfortable.

Later in the conversation, when she saw that Qi Canglan looked strange, Jiang Lan instinctively felt that the Jiang family might have encountered some trouble, so she asked more questions.

Originally, Qi Canglan was not prepared to say anything, but couldn't bear Jiang Lan's questioning, so she could only sigh and said: "The Jiang family is really not having an easy time recently..."

He spoke slowly.

The reason why the Jiang family was able to gain a foothold in Jinling was because Jiang Lan's grandfather, Jiang Tianyuan, was a transformation master. He single-handedly raised the Jiang family to the ranks of the first-class families in Jinling. However, recently, one of Jiang Tianyuan's sworn enemies returned to Jinling.

The sworn enemy was named Hou.

The Hou family had issues with the Jiang family many years ago. They were kicked out of Jinling by Jiang Tianyuan. Later, they kept a low profile and actually trained a transformation master who was less than forty years old.

The Grandmaster of the Transformation Realm is named Hou Yong. In recent years, he has been ranked 38th on the Dragon Kingdom Grandmaster List. Because he only has eight fingers, he is also called the "Eight-fingered Grandmaster".

As for Jiang Tianyuan, he is only ranked around 80th on the grandmaster list. Although his ranking may fluctuate, there is definitely a big gap compared to Hou Yong.

The most important thing is that Hou Yong is young and will definitely have greater potential in the future.

Speaking of this, Qi Canglan suddenly glanced at Lu Yun meaningfully. He was very sure that Lu Yun was not on the grandmaster list, otherwise it would definitely shock the martial arts world.

After all, it is an incomplete statistics, and omissions are normal.

Back to business.

This time the Hou family returned to Jinling, of course they had to settle accounts with the Jiang family. After several provocations, Jiang Tianyuan had no choice but to agree to a fight with Hou Yong. The time was set on the 10th of next month, and he made a bet.

The rebels want to withdraw from Jinling.

Just like when the Hou family was defeated and withdrew from Jinling.

In this battle, most people are more optimistic about the Hou family, so those families that have business dealings with the Qi family have become much quieter recently, and some have even begun to get closer to the Hou family.

Qi Canglan said with shame: "Actually, our Qi family has also been waiting and watching recently."

After Jiang Lan heard this, she couldn't calm down for a long time. She didn't expect such a big thing to happen to the Jiang family, but she didn't blame Qi Canglan, because such things are very common for a family of warrior cultivators.

Moreover, this method of setting up a battle and making a bet is already considered very mild. If it were not for the pressure from the Martial Alliance, bloodshed would probably break out.

…

While the two were talking, Lu Yun was also listening, but his mood did not change at all, as if he was listening to a story that had nothing to do with him... Well, it seemed that it had nothing to do with him in the first place.

"Those guys from the Martial League are so boring. They actually created a grandmaster list. They really have nothing to do when they are full." Lu Yun shook his head and said silently in his heart.

"Xiao Lu Yun."

When the story was exciting, Liu Yan'er suddenly came to Xinglin Hall, found Lu Yun and said, "Come to the bar with me!"

"What's up, Sister Yan'er, haven't you already become a shopkeeper? Why do you still go to the bar? Are you going to get drunk... Could it be that you are also emotionally injured like the fourth sister?"

Since the third sister became a cultivator, she no longer took care of the bar and left it directly to the people below, so forget it. She didn't even mention such a promising career as an assassin.

Lu Yun guessed that she had probably burned the night clothes hidden in her room.

Regarding Liu Yan'er's behavior, Lu Yun finally summed it up in four words: not doing his job properly.

"Love hurts you so much!"

Liu Yan'er flicked Lu Yun's forehead, dragged him and left Xinglin Hall, without even saying hello to Lin Qingtan.

"What's going on, third sister?"

Seeing her hurried steps and solemn expression, Lu Yun had a premonition that there might be something urgent, so he couldn't help but ask.

Liu Yan'er said: "Xiao Lu Yun, you already know my identity as a killer, so I won't hide it from you. This time I want to meet someone, my superior in Shadow Pavilion, codenamed Yingmu."

After all, the Shadow Pavilion is a shady organization. It adopts a one-on-three small team model, and everyone uses a code name to avoid being blamed.

Liu Yan'er's code name is 'Ye Qiangwei', and the other three people in her team are Ying Mu and Black and White Wuchang, the two people who were killed by Lu Yun last time.

Yingmu is on the line and is the only one who knows the true identities of the three people. Finding Liu Yan'er this time, if nothing else, it should be related to the death of Black and White Wuchang.

Liu Yaner brought Lu Yun with her just to be on the safe side.

Lu Yun said: "Sister Yan'er, if you put it this way, doesn't it mean that as long as you kill that Yingmu, no one will know your identity as a killer?"

Liu Yan'er nodded: "That's true. Although Yingmu is also online, his online probably doesn't know my identity."

This kind of small team management model is not careless. Even if a line at the bottom is cut off, it will not affect others above or in the same group, unless it is peeled off layer by layer from the top, but

This is definitely a big project, and it will give Shadow Pavilion enough time to react and adjust.

Lu Yun patted his forehead and said, "I just realized it now. You and the Seventh Sister should be on opposite sides. How can you live in peace and harmony for so many years?"

"I only found out about the fact that Seventh Sister is the leader of the Central China District Martial Arts League a while ago, and I have done a good job of keeping my identity confidential..."

Liu Yan'er said and glared at Lu Yun faintly: "It's not all your fault. When you came back, everything was disrupted."

"Hehe, I feel quite accomplished after saying that... By the way, Sister Yan'er, why did you join the Shadow Pavilion in the first place, and why do you want to quit now?"

Judging from the posture of the third sister, it is definitely not that she wants to drink tea with Yingmu, but she clearly wants to fuck him, because only by killing Yingmu can she truly break away from this killer organization.
