The name of Huangsha City is very strange, because it is surrounded by endless virgin forests in all directions, and the products inside are extremely rich.
It is said that more than a thousand years ago, Huangsha City was a small village, surrounded by forests and only a desert with a radius of 100 miles. The small village was built on an oasis in the desert and was called Huangsha Village.
Later, more and more adventurers gathered here to hunt for treasures and regarded Huangsha Village as a post station. Therefore, the place gradually developed. By the time the Qinglong Kingdom overthrew the previous dynasty and established a country, the former small village had become a wealthy country.
A large town with a permanent population of hundreds of thousands!
Another hundred years later, this place became the largest city in the south of Qinglong Kingdom. Now, the permanent population settled in Huangsha City has exceeded one million!
The Shangguan family was the first family to settle in Huangsha Town and develop its business in transportation, restaurants, inns, pawnshops, banks... and even brothels and casinos. Almost all businesses related to service are monopolized by the Shangguan family.
.
As the twenty-fifth generation head of the Shangguan family, Shangguan Tie is a master in his own right! He had reached the sixth level of Yuanli fourteen years ago, and his strength reached the ninth level of the Xuan level!
In order to seek a breakthrough, Shangguan Tie, who was already in his sixties at the time, ventured alone into the Yingzui Stream, one hundred and seventy miles south of Huangsha City.
The Soul-eating Swamp, Yingzui Stream, Phoenix Lake, and the Killing Place are collectively known as the four most dangerous places in Huangsha City. This is something that adventurers who have narrowly escaped death have summed up with their lives for hundreds of years.
Among them, the Soul-eating Swamp is more than 350 miles east of Huangsha City. It is a swamp with a radius of more than 70 miles. The highly toxic miasma can be seen everywhere. There are a huge number of various spiritual beasts. If you are not careful, you will be swallowed up.
, becoming another wronged soul. However, the Soul-Eating Swamp is rich in dozens of precious medicinal materials and hundreds of aquatic spiritual beasts. Obtaining one of them is a huge windfall. Therefore, although it is extremely fierce, it is attractive.
Followed by countless adventurers.
The Yingzui Stream is like a huge eagle's beak. It is surrounded by various magical sinkholes. Some sinkholes are more than a hundred miles in diameter and are bottomless below. There are all kinds of magical plants and ferocious spirits inside.
There are even rumors that many adventurers claim that they have seen spiritual beasts that have transformed into humans in Yingzui Stream. Of course, no one can confirm whether they were humans or spiritual beasts. However, this does not affect the eagle.
Zui Jian has an increasingly mysterious status in people's hearts.
Phoenix Lake and the Killing Place are similar to these two places. It is no exaggeration to describe it as a narrow escape for ordinary warriors entering it.
But in such an extremely dangerous place, Shangguan Tie saw a scene that he would never forget!
He was escaping from a spiritual beast at that time. That spiritual beast was at least at the peak of the Xuan level. If Shangguan Tie wanted to fight it, he would not necessarily lose, but the problem was that in Yingzui Stream with the spirit beast, he would not necessarily lose.
The fight between beasts is likely to arouse the alert of more powerful beings. If they are targeted, it will really be a dead end.
In the process of escaping, Shangguan Tie Jinghong glanced at the highest point of the Eagle's Beak... two people, one man and one woman, stood on the top of the huge and ferocious Eagle's Beak.
The man is extremely handsome, with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, a face like a silver basin, a tall figure, and is wearing a white robe. There is a woman beside him, who is beautiful and fragrant. She is nestled next to the man, with a sweet and happy look on her face, and she doesn't even see him.
Shangguan Tie fled for his life a hundred meters away.
In such a dangerous place, there is actually a couple having an intimate love affair here... Well, this is nothing, the worldly master likes this tone, but the problem is, Shangguan Tie knows that woman!
It is Qin Hanyue, the youngest daughter of Qin Hongyuan, the head of the Qin family, one of the three major families in Huangsha City!
Shangguan Tie almost screamed in surprise, but the man suddenly looked at him and gave him a cold glance. Shangguan Tie suddenly felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave! The tiger spirit beast chasing him behind him even let out a cry full of terror.
He roared, turned around and ran away with his tail between his legs!
That cold and indifferent look is like a sharp sword, piercing people's souls!
Shangguan Tie will never forget that kind of coercion and invisible murderous intent, which is completely unlike what a human warrior can emit.
When his daughter Shangguan Feiyue entered the palace as a concubine, Shangguan Tie saw with his own eyes the emperor's bodyguards who were said to be heaven-level experts. Even the heaven-level experts could not put so much pressure on Shangguan Tie.
.
Moreover, it is just a look from the other party.
Shangguan Tie left immediately. He didn't know if Qin Hanyue had seen him. That man probably wouldn't tell his lover about this, right? Perhaps, in their eyes, he was just a person who accidentally broke into someone's conversation.
A bad visitor in a love-making place...
That look almost tormented Shangguan Tie into becoming obsessed at that time. It took Shangguan Tie three years of retreat to get rid of this inner demon. However, his strength will always remain at the ninth level of the Xuan level. He will never be able to do it again in this life.
It is difficult to go further.
Later, it came out that the youngest daughter of the Qin family, Qin Hanyue, had misbehaved and gave birth to an illegitimate child. Like the incident of Shangguan Shiyu at that time, it spread a lot in Huangsha City.
Qin Hanyue was very likely to be elected to the palace together with her daughter Shangguan Feiyue, but something like this happened, which made countless people feel sad at the time. At the same time, they were also wondering who had kidnapped the Qin family member.
He grew up in the heart of a beautiful and fragrant daughter, and then ruthlessly abandoned her?
In the following years, Shangguan Tie would "accidentally" pass by the places where the Qin family's servants lived from time to time, and quietly observe the silent little illegitimate son. As Qin Li grew older, Shangguan Tie felt more and more,
Between the eyebrows of that child, there was a shadow of that man when he saw it, so he finally concluded in his heart that this little illegitimate child was probably that man's child!
Although he didn't know what happened between the youngest daughter of the Qin family and the man, Shangguan Tie firmly believed that his decision to marry Shangguan Shiyu to Qin Li was correct! Shangguan Tie, who had met countless people, was also betting.
That man will come looking for his woman and son sooner or later! By then, all his investment... will be rewarded!
This is called courage!
Shangguan Tie's old eyes were filled with a proud smile, and he thought to himself: Old man Qin, this is the fundamental reason why your Qin family is not as good as my Shangguan family!
Because I can see much further than you!
…
"Good granddaughter, listen to grandpa and go see him, okay?" Shangguan Tie looked helplessly at his precious granddaughter, who was working hard to do her job.
Shangguan Shiyu, who was sitting opposite him, was wearing a long robe, white gauze gloves on her hands, and a white gauze scarf on her face. Not a single bit of skin was exposed on her whole body. This was what happened a year ago.
After that, Shangguan Shiyu changed. She didn't want anyone to see her blue skin.
"Not going."
Shangguan Shiyu shook her head resolutely: "Grandpa, Shiyu will never marry again in this life! She will stay with grandpa!" His voice was as clear and clear as an oriole's, very pleasant.
"Silly boy, grandpa will leave sooner or later. You can't stay with grandpa all your life. What should you do if grandpa is gone?" Shangguan Tie no longer looked like a majestic family leader at this moment. He was completely a kind old man with a look in his eyes.
There is relief and pity.
"Anyway...I don't want to see him!"
"Is it because of his identity?" Shangguan Tie asked tentatively.
"Of course not, who am I to laugh at others? Shiyu is just simple and doesn't want to get married, let alone scare others!" Shangguan Shiyu said quietly.
Shangguan Tie's heart tightened for a while, and he thought to himself that he had committed a crime and caused such a beautiful and lovely granddaughter of mine to suffer such torture. Why not retribution on me, an old and immortal person?
At this time, Shangguan Shiyu suddenly asked again: "He said he wanted to see me? I heard that a few days ago, he personally killed two servants in the family who insulted his mother?"
As soon as Shangguan Tie saw the door, he immediately told Guan Shiyu the news he had heard in the past two days.
Shangguan Shiyu was silent for a while, then raised his head and said, "Let's meet him then."
