126. Scourge
"Condemned? What's the use of punishing you?"
Zhou Yong glared at Yuan Jinglong fiercely, "Even if you die, is it possible that this king's Xiaoyaosan can still come back, and those workshops can be restored to their original state?"
Yuan Jinglong lowered his head and did not dare to answer, but there was unavoidable hatred in his eyes.
I hate myself for being greedy and boarding the other party's pirate ship. Now that such a big thing has happened, gunpowder was used, and the fire spread throughout the valley last night, I can't hide it even if I want to.
At least, there were spies from the Yuan Xing Gang who witnessed this incident.
But now, with the new official taking office, no one can know the thoughts of Fan Tingqian who was transferred from the capital. He must make a fuss about this matter to make trouble for himself.
Yuan Jinglong also hated the Red Flame Sect. This demon sect first made its fortune in Taiyuan Prefecture. Hundreds of years ago, it was suppressed by the imperial court for leading a rebellion and disappeared.
He thought that the Red Flame Sect had been destroyed, but he didn't expect that it would reappear, and the first fire was in Taiyuan Prefecture. Not only was it on his territory, but it was closely related to him. It was really hateful.
Moreover, if this matter is known to the imperial court, regardless of whether the Red Flame Sect intends to make a comeback, the rise this time will be within its own jurisdiction.
Then, blame is inevitable, and even Fan Tingqian will be held accountable.
Therefore, Yuan Jinglong felt resentful and felt that he was a frustrated and unlucky man.
Also, the third person he hates is Zhou Yong!
This loser who was kicked out of the capital, the embarrassed prince, dared to treat him with such an attitude.
Yuan Jinglong has already decided that when this matter is over, he will definitely look for opportunities to take revenge and come back!
Anyway, the business of Xiaoyao Powder is over. Even if there are other business channels for Xiaoyao Powder in Taiyuan Prefecture in the future, the previous situation will not be restored.
Then, Yuan Jinglong has nothing to worry about.
With his status, he has already earned enough money, and now he is fighting for just one breath!
Zhou Yong in the hall didn't realize at all that Yuan Jinglong, who had a low eyebrow and a pleasant look, had so many mental activities, and he was not in the mood to talk to or take care of him.
He just cursed, wanted to vent, and wanted revenge.
But the people from the Red Flame Sect had fled long ago, and not even a ghost could be seen. He was really incompetent and furious.
"Investigate, we must investigate thoroughly!"
Zhou Yong sprayed saliva from his mouth, "Yuan Jinglong, no matter what method you use, I must find these thieves from the Chiyan Sect. I will cut them to pieces without sparing any one of them!"
"
Yuan Jinglong nodded in agreement.
On the side, Gongsun Che looked at the dignified Yizhou Guardsman's groveling manner, and wanted to persuade Zhou Yong, but when he saw the angry look on his face, he did not dare to speak.
At this moment, someone trotted in from outside the door, looking panicked.
Zhou Yong subconsciously wanted to curse loudly, but when he saw who it was, he swallowed back the curse words he wanted to say.
However, his tone was still a little unhappy, "How unbecoming is it to be in such a panic!"
"Something happened to Senior Brother Lu!" The person who came was none other than Princess Zhou Min.
Zhou Yong frowned, thinking about nonsense, Senior Brother Lu, it would be best if he died.
But he still asked: "He is a disciple of the Shenwu Sect, what can happen to him?"
"Among the four major sects, only Luo Qianqian from Xuanmiaofang returned from the Thunder Tribulation Valley. The rest all died in the valley!" Zhou Min said quickly.
Zhou Yong was stunned when he heard this, "Are they all dead?"
After all, he is also a relative of the emperor, so he is no stranger to the sect.
Even if the Thunder Tribulation Valley is a dangerous place, and even if Lu Shaoqing and others are just outer disciples, since they are so confident this time, they shouldn't all die even if there is danger.
Could it be said that there is something serious and dangerous in this Thunder Tribulation Valley?
Wait, Zhou Yong suddenly thought of something. Lu Shaoqing and his group of sect disciples are all dead. Even if only Luo Qianqian is alive, how did Chu Yunqing and Ke Fang survive?
There is also an unidentified woman. Could it be that she is also from the sect?
Zhou Yong couldn't figure it out for a moment, but Lu Shaoqing and others were dead, and it had nothing to do with him anyway. As for the dead people, it didn't matter.
"Ah, that's really a pity." He said, "It's a pity that Mr. Lu is so jealous of his talent."
Zhou Min said anxiously: "But if Chu Yunqing can come out alive, how can Senior Brother Lu and the others die?"
Zhou Yong glanced at Gongsun Zhe.
The latter understood, coughed slightly, and said: "Then what do you think, Princess?"
"Call him here and ask him face to face." Zhou Min said: "Didn't you say not long ago that he would take over the Xiaoyaosan business given to Chen Wu?"
She was anxiously inquiring about Lu Shaoqing, and she didn't know that the valley workshop was destroyed by the Red Flame Cult last night.
Gongsun Zhe told the story.
Zhou Min was stunned for a long time, in disbelief, "Red Flame Sect?"
Zhou Yong nodded and said in a deep voice: "Minmin, you should know what is most important at the moment and don't be willful."
"Don't you think that these two things are related?" Zhou Min said: "Since the Xiaoyaosan workshop was built, there has been no trouble for several years."
Gongsun Zhe was stunned, "The princess is saying that the Red Flame Sect has something to do with the Thunder Tribulation Valley incident?"
Zhou Yong couldn't help but frown, "It would be far-fetched to forcibly connect the two."
"But..." Zhou Min still insisted.
Gongsun Zhe cupped his hands and said, "I feel that what the princess said is quite reasonable."
Zhou Yong asked: "What do you think sir?"
Gongsun Zhe asked Xiang Zhou Min, "I wonder what Luo Qianqian said after returning to the sect?"
Zhou Min then told the news he had learned.
After Luo Qianqian returned to the sect injured, she said that she, Lu Shaoqing and others also accidentally heard about the existence of Thunder Tribulation Valley. She thought that since she was going down the mountain to experience, such a fierce place would be more conducive to sharpening, and maybe she could be able to do it in
A breakthrough was made in the life and death crisis.
It was just that after entering the valley, she accidentally touched the formation in the valley, which was extremely dangerous. Her brothers and sisters who were traveling with her were either injured or killed. Finally, she discovered the relics left by her predecessors in the formation. With these, she was able to come out step by step.
It's just that Lu Shaoqing and others were unlucky and died.
"Did Xuanmiaofang believe it?" Gongsun Zhe asked.
Zhou Min gritted his teeth and said: "She is indeed carrying a damaged magic weapon. It is said that the material is extremely rare. Xuanmiao Fang has taken advantage of it. It's too late to be happy. How can she care about the lives of Senior Brother Lu and others?"
"What about the Shenwu Sect and other sects?" Gongsun Zhe asked.
"The other two sects don't know that Hua Wuqi, the true disciple of my Shenwu sect, who is Hua Xiaoyun's brother, has already gone to Miaoyinfang in person." Zhou Min said.
"True disciple." Gongsun Zhe nodded and said to Zhou Yong: "Your Majesty, since this is the case, you should ask Chu Yunqing. Maybe there is something hidden in this."
Zhou Yong nodded, "Then I'll trouble you, sir."
Gongsun Zhe thought for a while and said: "I have called Chu Yunqing to come to the house for banquets several times before, but he refused. This time, I might as well make an appointment with him outside."
