Nangong Aotian just walked out of his room. Someone came at the door of the yard.
"Tian'er, have you slept?" It was Yilin's voice.
"Not yet, I can't sleep and go out for a walk." Nangong Aotian said quickly.
"Your grandpa is here, open the door quickly." Yilin said, "I want you to go to the front hall."
"Oh." Nangong Aotian replied and left the small courtyard.
"Grandpa, what happened so late? Could it be..." Nangong Aotian saw that there were not only two grandfathers in the living room, but also two elders who were both over fifty years old.
"Your guess is correct. According to what you said, we found a spy. He was the person responsible for purchasing medicinal materials in all pharmacies. We followed him and found that he went to contact others, but we did not alert the snake. He was alone.
Go talk to that person, and there is another person who came back directly to report, haha," Nangong Lie said with a smile.
"Well, as expected, it would be even better if the person following him could find something. Grandpa, you are much more careful than me." Nangong Aotian said quickly and modestly.
"Hahaha. You're still talking about me. If you hadn't discovered that something was wrong this time and made such an arrangement, I'm afraid our family would have suffered a huge loss this time." Nangong Lie looked very happy.
"Well, it would be better if we could discover their stronghold." Nangong Aotian said, "In this way, we might be able to completely discover and eliminate this hidden danger. After all, it is completely impossible for the other party to discover that we have noticed it.
.”
"Yes, so I think we have to wait until the person following us comes back to report tonight. The person sent to follow this time is a person in our family who is very experienced in this field, and he is also a master-level warrior. He has
With a special method of concealing his aura, it would be difficult for an average Martial King expert to detect him without paying attention." Nangong Lie said.
"Oh, if this is the case, we don't need to send people out of the city anymore. We just need to know the lair of the people in the dark, then inform the city lord, and go and deal with them before dawn." Nangong Aotian said.
"Yes, we will start taking action as soon as the people we are following come back." Nangong Lie nodded and said, "Let's see who is causing trouble down there, disturbing the peace of Baker City for many years."
Everyone waited in the living room for a full hour, and finally the news came.
"Master, we have found the enemy's gathering point." A strong man in his forties came into the hall at this time and reported to Nangong Lie.
"Oh, how's the situation?" Nangong Lie stood up and asked.
"Sure enough, as the head of the family expected, those people are not in the Lanling family. In a secret house in the north of the city, there seem to be a lot of people who look like six or seven of the Martial King level, and there are also many martial arts practitioners who look like
They are all powerful. I am afraid that the matter will be exposed, so I dare not delay any longer." The strong Chinese character said at this time.
"Okay," Nangong Lie thought for a while and said. "I'm going to see the Lord of the City now, and then we will surround the house at the same time and capture everyone together."
"Okay, I will now gather all the martial arts masters and above in my family. We must take down all these people." Nangong Ying also stood up and said.
"It sounds like these people should be pretty good. They probably don't have any conspiracy. Otherwise, why would a small city like ours suddenly gather so many strong men of the Martial King rank? You know, our family only has eight strong Martial Kings in total.
"Yes." Nangong Lie said at this time, "I have to talk to the Lord of the City about this matter."
"Yes, grandpa, this matter is indeed a bit strange. I think the forces behind them must be very strong. Although we have discovered their stronghold, it is hard to say how many strong men of the Martial King level they have. We have to be on guard.
Ah." Nangong Haoran thought for a while and said.
"Well, it's true. So we have to go all out this time." Nangong Lie said and walked outside. Nangong Ying also went out at this time. Of course, he started to prepare manpower at this time. Although it was night,
But time was tight, so it had to be this way.
As for Nangong Aotian, although he had a lot of ideas, he didn't dare to be interested in what happened next. With the power of the city lord and the assistance of his own family, it is not too difficult to think about. After all, it is the power behind the other party.
Strong, but the manpower and material resources prepared by the other party in the early stage of the conspiracy were definitely not too strong. If this incident was exposed, the other party would not dare to take any further actions easily. After all, all the aristocratic families would have been prepared.
Nangong Haoran happened to say to Nangong Aotian at this time, "Tian'er, we can handle the rest. You can go and rest."
"Oh," Nangong Aotian said nothing and walked out of the living room. However, the elder who came with Nangong Lie did not get up at this time. His eyes were full of admiration as he watched Nangong Aotian walking away.
"Two elders, this matter has been settled. It is estimated that our people will gather together in a while. Let's go to the family meeting hall?" Nangong Haoran said to the two elders at this time.
"Haoran, you have a good son." An elder nodded and said with some envy.
"Yes, this boy rarely shows up. I didn't expect him to be so thoughtful. He will definitely not be a thing in the pool in the future." Another elder also agreed.
"Haha, you guys are praising me, this guy is just a little smart." Nangong Haoran looked happy and said modestly.
"This has prevented a major loss for our family. It is probably more than that." The two elders said as they left the living room with Nangong Haoran.
Nangong Aotian returned to his yard and saw that the lights in Yu Lingshuang's room were still on, and he couldn't help but be curious.
Nangong Aotian knocked on the door gently.
"Come in." As expected, Yu Lingshuang hadn't slept yet, and Nangong Aotian was a little surprised.
"Lingshuang, why don't you rest? Beauty will get wrinkles if she goes to bed late." When he entered the room, he saw Yu Lingshuang teasing the little panda.
"You..." Yu Lingshuang heard Nangong Aotian's words, her face flushed again, "Who taught you to call me that."
"Then I won't call you by your name? What should I call you?" Nangong Aotian pretended not to understand and said, "Call you a woman, or just feed me? Isn't that not good?"
"You...you...you can call me Miss Yu or Miss Yu." Yu Lingshuang whispered.
"How can that be done? The rule here is that you can only call someone this way when you meet for the first time. Generally, friends must be called by their first names, so I can only call you Lingshuang, otherwise I have to call you Shuangshuang or something like that.
That’s it.” Nangong Aotian said.
"You...you..." Yu Lingshuang frowned but said nothing more.
"It seems like you're waiting for me, right? Ling Shuang?" Nangong Aotian saw that the other party didn't say anything more, so he acquiesced. So his calls became smoother.
"I want to know if this is Baker City?" Yu Lingshuang thought for a while before saying.
"Then you should be the son of the Nangong family?" Yu Lingshuang asked next.
"How do you know? Have you heard of me a long time ago and are you here specifically to find me?" Nangong Aotian pretended to stare at the sick beauty in front of him with wide eyes.
"You..." Yu Lingshuang was embarrassed by Nangong Aotian, "Don't talk like that, otherwise I will ignore you."
"Uh." Nangong Aotian blinked.
"Did something happen to your family recently?" Yu Lingshuang asked again.
"How do you know?" Nangong Aotian's eyes widened again, "Did you come here for this matter?"
"Yes, that's why I did it." Yu Lingshuang said, "I didn't expect that their hands would really stretch out so long."
"Wait a minute, who are you talking about?" Nangong Aotian asked doubtfully.
"They are a sect with strong strength. They are a prince who obeys the orders of the empire. They came here this time to gain control of the city," Yu Lingshuang said with a frown, "Of course they are only in the dark.
The purpose is to get one to two aristocratic families in Baker City, disrupt Baker City, and then drive away the current city lord so that he can be replaced by one of theirs."
"I'm dizzy, aren't I? They also see this little Baker City?" Nangong Aotian asked doubtfully.
"That's not true, otherwise they wouldn't have just sent a few ordinary people, but no matter how big or small they are, they are still weak. In order to increase their strength, they will not care about anything else." Yu Lingshuang said.
"This is actually what happened." Nangong Aotian understood somewhat, "The prince of the empire has been involved in this."
"You were called out just now, and after adding your name, I guessed that you were probably one of the targets of their conspiracy." Yu Lingshuang said.
"Oh, how do you know these things? Who are you?" Nangong Aotian was very curious. "These are not secrets that ordinary people can know."
"I know this matter also came from my sect. I didn't come alone. I wanted to experience it, so I begged the master to let me come with my sect. I originally wanted to inform the Lord of Baker City.
As a result, they were plotted halfway. The two brothers who came with me were plotted by them, but they just covered me and escaped." Yu Lingshuang said with a frown.
"I didn't expect it, Ling Shuang." Nangong Aotian sighed greatly at this time, "You...you actually care about me so much, and come all the way to report to me. I...I am so touched that I cannot repay you."
"You...what are you talking nonsense about?" Yu Lingshuang's face turned red again. "I was just ordered by my master. Originally, I would not have come for such a thing. I just wanted to go out for a walk, so I came out."
of."
"They're all the same, they're all the same. No, you found me right away when you came here." Nangong Aotian said seriously.
"You........." Yu Lingshuang turned her head and stopped talking.
"From what you said, your sect seems to be very powerful?" Nangong Aotian felt that the beauty in front of him seemed really angry, so he took the initiative to speak.
"My sect belongs to the Piaomiao Sect." Yu Lingshuang finally answered Nangong Aotian's question.
"Oh, could it be the Piaomiao Sect, one of the three ancient sects of the Chinese Empire? No wonder." Nangong Aotian said, "It is said that your sect has the deepest connection with the imperial family, right?"
"It's not that the relationship is very deep. Our sect has always hoped that the empire can be victorious for a long time. We will not get involved in ordinary things, but if there is a change of emperors in the empire, we will definitely support the one with the best virtues and the most ability.
Prince, of course these are all for the future of the empire." Yu Lingshuang thought for a while before saying.
"Oh, so that's it." Nangong Aotian understood. It seems that the Piaomiao Sect is based on the noble ideal of striving for the welfare of the world, but I don't know if it is true.
"By the way, from the look of you, it seems like nothing happened to your family?" Yu Lingshuang looked at Nangong Aotian, who was not worried at all, in confusion and said.
"Do you know who the person standing in front of you is?" The smile on Nangong Aotian's face became more and more obvious, and he seemed very proud.
"Who are you?" Yu Lingshuang couldn't help but be confused by Nangong Aotian's appearance. She turned her head and looked at Nangong Aotian blankly.
"How about it, I'm handsome!!!" Seeing the beauty in front of him, Nangong Aotian even put on a cool pose and said.
"You..." Feeling that she was staring at Nangong Aotian, Yu Lingshuang was instantly ashamed. She had never been in such an embarrassment before and said, "Go to hell."
"Forget it, let me be serious with you." Nangong Aotian smiled and continued, "What happened the day before you came to report the news."
Then, Nangong Aotian briefly told what happened. Of course, his wise and courageous side was severely portrayed.
"I didn't expect you to have such a mind. I thought you just looked after a useless member of the family." Yu Lingshuang looked at Nangong Aotian and said in surprise.
"So you think I'm handsome too, that's good, that's great hehe." Looking at the charming Yu Lingshuang, Nangong Aotian said with a smile.
"You..." There is really nothing you can do about the young man in front of you. At first, you thought the young man in front of you was very elegant. But you didn't expect that he has such a thick-skinned side. He just doesn't look too bad.
In fact, Yu Lingshuang already has a very high opinion of Nangong Aotian. There are many young handsome men who have been in contact with her before, but they have never been taken seriously by Yu Lingshuang. Including the prince in the imperial palace. But
I don’t know why. It’s getting harder and harder for Yu Lingshuang to be angry with Nangong Aotian. Even though Nangong Aotian can make her shy at every turn.
"Now, you can rest in peace and recuperate. Haha," Nangong Aotian said at this time, "The crisis in Baker City has been resolved so quickly. I don't think that gang will dare to act rashly anymore. After all, the movement is big.
, it’s not a good thing, and besides, for such a small place, they can’t do anything else.”
"Well, I think they will indeed not make any changes after this incident, otherwise the city lord of Baker City will catch them. Besides, this place is located in a remote place. Although it is relatively wealthy, it cannot pay a high price.
In addition, such small things will not be taken seriously by the people above them."
"Okay, I'm safe now, and your mission has been completed. There's no need to worry about anything. You're seriously injured, although your elixir is indeed very effective. You still have to have a good rest. Otherwise, what will be left behind?
There is a hidden danger that the beautiful lady may turn into a sick beauty." After saying that, Nangong Aotian walked out the door.
"Thick skin," Yu Lingshuang muttered.
Feeling Nangong Aotian's concern for her. For some reason, Yu Lingshuang felt very comfortable and seemed to have a warm feeling. Although she knew that the boy in front of her was nearly ten years younger than herself, when she looked at the boy in front of her,
