Chapter 101: A Twist

  ♂?,,

  "What's the matter with you?"

  "Here it comes, didn't expect the Zhang family to make a move so quickly."

  Zhou Tianchi and Lin Qi exchanged a glance, both seeing the shock in each other's eyes: "Didn't we just run into Wan Jufeng? Not long ago, thanks to Wan Jufeng, we were able to leave Changding Peak safely. Now, what about Wan Jufeng..."

  "This is a slap in the face!"

  Fang Qianhua's eyes also flashed with anger: "The Chang family actually put pressure on my old friend, Wan Jufeng helped us just now, and now he is forcing Wan Jufeng to take away that Wang Ting, this is not putting us in their eyes, the Chang family has not yet risen to power, but it has already become so arrogant, a successor of a family, dare to challenge me, the imperial swordmaster, if they really rise to power in the future, it will be unbearable, this is simply unreasonable!"

  "Master, this matter seems to be more complicated than just a simple affair of the Chang family."

  The woman in her twenties behind Fang Qianhua said softly.

  It turned out that the one who came with Wan Jufeng was not a member of the Chang family, but Hai Qing, a member of the Hai family. The Chang family is currently not in power, and in terms of influence, although it surpasses most earl-level nobles, it can only show off within this circle. However, the Hai family is different. With the Marquis of Haidton presiding over the Hai family, it is an absolute old aristocratic family. At this moment, Hai Qing, who came with Wan Jufeng, may be a small figure, but from the side, it can already be inferred what attitude the Hai family has towards this matter.

  "Wang Ting had previously killed Li Mu, a house minister of the Haino Earl, and also killed a great swordsman-level captain of the Haino family's guard. This matter will definitely be weighed by the Haino family in terms of how to handle it. If it were before, after several failures, the Haino family might have given up on dealing with Wang Ting. However, now that the Chang family has been implicated and the heir of the Chang family has made up his mind to deal with Wang Ting, they will not miss the opportunity to get in good with a rising top-level family like this. The people of the Haino family will absolutely not let it go easily."

  Zhou Tianchi said.

  "This king is really good at causing trouble."

  Fang Qianhua let out a sigh, implying that she was somewhat dissatisfied with Wang Tingyi.

  "Master..."

  Lin Qi's heart trembled slightly, and at this time, if his master let go and no longer cared about this matter, then next...

  Fang Qianhua glanced at Lin Qi, and finally couldn't help but say: "I'll go out and take a look first. Even if the Hai and Chang families have come together, this is still my residence, they wouldn't dare to search people here."

  As they spoke, he had already gone out of the courtyard with several disciples accompanying him.

  Zhou Tianchi and Lin Qi exchanged a glance, also somewhat helpless. Neither of them had expected things to turn out this way.

  Wang Ting secretly assassinated Gong Sun Jianye, leaving no evidence behind and was not caught red-handed. Logically speaking, with Fang Qianhua's influence in the Wang Kingdom, it should still be possible to cover up this matter. No one would go to great lengths for a deceased earl and a fallen family...

  However, now the Chang and Hai families seem to have made up their minds to deal with Wang Ting. This matter has become a good excuse for them to attack, and coincidentally, the other party is following the regular procedure, while Wang Ting is indeed the murderer who killed Gong Sun Jianye...

  "After all, young people are just full of youthful vigor."

  Another of Fang Qianhua's disciples said, and together with Zhou Tianchi and Lin Qi, they left the yard and went out.

  Outside the courtyard, Wan Jufeng, who had previously helped him out of a difficult situation and had a good relationship with Wang Ting and others, led about 80 skilled city guards waiting outside the courtyard. He didn't surround the yard or show any disrespect. At this moment, his face was slightly ugly, with a mix of anger and resentment, but facing his superior Hai Qing, he could only suppress these emotions in his heart and not dare to reveal them.

  "Master Fang."

  "Mr. Fang."

  As Fang Qianhua came out of the courtyard, Hai Qing and Wan Jufeng both slightly bowed their heads in greeting.

  Seeing Zhou Tianchi again, Wan Jufeng's face became even more awkward.

  It's his duty, but he can't help it either.

  "This is for both of you."

  That's right.

  Wan Ju Feng's face hardened as he spoke, "There was a vicious murder case in the Academy City. Gong Sun Fang Yu Zi and Gong Sun Jian Ye Bo were brutally killed by a ferocious beast. This matter has already attracted high attention from relevant departments. Not long ago, we received news that the murderer is hiding in the courtyard of Lord Fang Qian Hua, I don't know..."

  "What news? I don't know where Captain Wanju got his information from?"

  "This..."

  Wan Ju did not know how to speak, and Hai Qing beside him smiled and said: "It's probably a mistake in the telegram. As Mr. Fang Qianhua, how could he harbor such a murderer? Especially this kind of free swordsman who dares to kill nobles, His Majesty has always been deeply disgusted with this kind of lawless and noble-free swordsman. As the imperial swordmaster, Mr. Fang Qianhua should understand this point more than us, so we also came to confirm it. Now it seems that the murderer is not in Mr. Fang Qianhua's courtyard."

  Coercion!

  This is a hidden threat that has been forced out.

  "Of course."

  Fang Qianhua seemed to be completely unaware of who the murderer was, and said indifferently: "I believe that there is no one in my courtyard who would kill a noble."

  "In that case, we've disturbed you long enough, goodbye."

  Hai Qing finished speaking and didn't stay here any longer, quickly leading Wan Ju Feng to gather the troops. In a short while, more than 80 city guards had left cleanly, leaving behind only some passersby from afar who were looking in this direction with surprise and uncertainty!

  "Master..."

  "Let's go in and talk."

  Fang Qianhua's face was somewhat gloomy, in fact, he had already vaguely understood the other party's intentions.

  Zhou Tianchi and Lin Qi exchanged a glance, nodding slightly.

  However, they had just returned to the inner courtyard and hadn't even had time to take a sip of tea or catch their breath when a servant came in again to report: "Master, Earl Changjian has sent over his visiting card and is here to pay his respects."

  "Long arrow!"

  This name caused several people present to change color simultaneously.

  Chang Jian, although not the head of the Chang family, nor the true master of the Chang household, is absolutely one of the big shots in the Chang family. This can be seen from his noble identity as a viscount. At this moment when the contradictions between Fang Qianhua and the Chang family are gradually emerging, Chang Jian actually came to visit Fang Qianhua, which means that there must be no good news.

  But unfortunately...

  Both of them were earls, and he couldn't just turn him away at the door, otherwise it would be a complete breakdown in their relationship.

  "Master..."

  Fang Qianhua waved her hand: "I'd like to see what tricks they have up their sleeves, let them in."
