Chapter 973 How complicated do you think it is?(1/2)
What was originally a good celebration banquet suddenly turned solemn and dull.
"I knew you were not so kind." Dongfang Shuo immediately slammed the table and said angrily: "Since you are all here, don't even think about leaving!"
"Elder Dongfang, don't be angry." Elder Shi reacted and smiled awkwardly: "We had that idea at first, but we didn't do it, so it doesn't count as a mistake."
"If I hadn't known about it, you wouldn't have figured out what to do!" Dongfang Shuo said coldly.
"Elder, I am also a member of the Dongfang family, does this have anything to do with me?" The fat man felt very aggrieved.
"You brought people to the family to get the Blood of Perfection. Did you tell them the secret of Blood of Perfection?" Dongfang Shuo sneered and said angrily: "Fat man, do you still have the nerve to say that you are from the Dongfang Family?"
"Elder, this is really not what I said." The fat man shook his head without hesitation and said: "It was Elder Shi who said that as long as he gets the perfect blood of our Dongfang family woman, he can activate the seal of the jade pendant and leave the battlefield of thousands of sects.
"
"You are not a member of the Dongfang family yet, so you are not qualified to say this!" As soon as he saw this situation, Dongfang Bai knew that the opportunity had come, and immediately fanned the flames: "Even if you didn't say it, you brought them here.
Our family is seeking the blood of the Perfect King, and I think you also have ulterior motives."
"Elder, I really didn't mean that." Fatty Wang quickly explained aggrievedly: "The fact that Tianyang Sect wanted to sneak attack on our Dongfang family was because I found a way to pass the information over."
"Elder, you can't trust him." Dongfang Bai seized the opportunity and added fuel to the fire: "He traded with this group of people to obtain the blood of the perfect jade. If this spreads out, where will the reputation of our Dongfang family go?
?”
"If everyone knew that the perfect blood of the women in our family is the most holy, wouldn't all the women in our family be miserable?" Dongfang Bai continued: "Elder, please think twice!"
"Elder, I really didn't mean that. You must believe me." The fat man said very aggrievedly.
"Believe you? I have no way of trusting you now." Dongfang Shuo was furious and coldly ordered: "Come here, lock them up first!"
Xia Ke and others gave Elder Shi a hard look. This guy was a troublemaker who could cause trouble wherever he went. They regretted not killing this old guy first.
"Get up, why are you still eating here?" A member of the Dongfang family walked up to Xia Bo and said angrily.
"Why should we be locked up?" Xia Bo said calmly: "We have paid so much for your Dongfang family, why don't we let you have a meal?"
"You have no relationship with our Dongfang family, how can you help us?" Dongfang Shuo said with a bit of disdain: "Huh, I should have seen that you have no good intentions. It turns out that you are doing it for the girls of our Dongfang family.
Perfect blood!"
"Elder, you can't just hear about some things, otherwise you will only lose more." Xia Bo said lightly.
"Didn't I hear this this time? Your own people said so." Dongfang Shuo said very displeasedly: "Could it be that this is still false?"
"Elder Shi said so, but he will definitely not do it." Xia Bo sighed.
"That's why you see now that the eldest lady of our family is not here at all. She knew that her coming was in vain." At this time, Dongfang Bai crossed his arms and said arrogantly.
"Of course that's not the case." Xia Bo said calmly: "I mean, even if we didn't come to the Dongfang Family's residence, we wouldn't do this."
"You must have given up because you saw the strength of our Dongfang family." Dongfang rolled his eyes and continued.
"You are really good at telling jokes." Xia Bo looked at Dongfang Bai like an idiot: "If Elder Shi was afraid of the strength of your Dongfang family, he wouldn't have said that just now!"
"..." Dongfang Bai was speechless for a moment.
"Then tell me, why?" Dongfang Shuo couldn't help but ask, the light in his eyes flashing continuously.
"Some things are related to your family's secrets, and it's not convenient to talk about it here." Xia Bo said with a smile: "If you don't mind, let's find a place where no one is around to talk again. What do you think?"
"I don't believe you can know something that even our Dongfang family members don't know!" Dongfang Shuo waved his hand, as if he didn't believe it: "If you have the ability, just say it here, so that all the Dongfang family members can
Everyone is listening."
"Elder Dongfang is really generous. He also wants other families to know this secret." Xia Bo looked around and found that there were people from other families in the hall, including many from the Nangong family. He said, "Especially Nangong.
Family members!"
"I think this kid seems to have something to hide," the elder of the Nangong family seemed to know what Xia Bo was going to say, so he stood up and clasped his fists at Dongfang Shuo and said, "Let's go outside and listen to what he is going to say."
Dongfang Shuo knew that the elder Nangong in front of him rarely spoke, but when he spoke, there must be some truth.
"Then I'll give you a chance, you have to take advantage of it." Dongfang Shuo nodded and said to Xia Bo with a hint of threat: "If you can't convince me, I won't let you go!"
"I never tell lies!" Xia Bo stared at Elder Nangong and said with a smile.
"Get up quickly!" Dongfang Bai held a rope in his hand and planned to tie up Elder Shi. He ran to Elder Shi and said angrily.
"Xia Bo from our side appears, and nothing will happen after a while." Elder Shi waved his hand and said disdainfully: "You go on, and continue with the celebration banquet."
"Why are you so confident?" Dongfang Bai said angrily.
"Don't be nervous, just pretend that nothing has happened, just sit down and eat." Elder Shi picked up a chicken leg and started eating it, and said, "Xia Bo, this kid is very scheming, he will definitely be able to fool the old man Dongfang.
.”
"Elder Dongfang, please lock this guy up first!" Xia Bo's forehead was covered with black lines, and he had the urge to kick Elder Shi to death immediately.
Dongfang Shuo nodded slightly, used violence to subdue Elder Shi, and locked him in an iron cage.
Soon, Dongfang Shuo took Xia Bo and Elder Nangong to the hill outside. There was no one around.
"Boy, isn't this place nice?" Elder Nangong said looking at Xia Bo.
"That's right." Xia Bo nodded slightly: "When I talk here, I can rest assured that no one else will hear me."
"I'm still waiting to punish you!" Elder Dongfang said somewhat unhappily: "Please tell me what is going on!"
"Elder Dongfang, as for how to punish us, I think it's not up to you to make the decision." Xia Bo said with a half-smile, "After all, Elder Nangong hasn't spoken yet."
"In the battlefield of thousands of sects, I am the boss, what else can't I decide?" Dongfang Shuo said angrily.
"Okay, don't scare me anymore." Xia Bo said calmly: "Among the eight major families, the one who really calls the shots is the Nangong family."
"What?" Xia Bo looked at Xia Bo in disbelief. How could Xia Bo know this secret?
"Brother Xia Bo, do you want to sow discord between our Nangong family and the Dongfang family?" Elder Nangong said with a smile.
"Of course not." Xia Bo shook his head, looked at Elder Nangong and said, "The Nangong family has peacock feathers and perfect blood."
"Peacock Ling and the perfect blood should belong to the Dongfang family." Elder Nangong said in surprise: "You must be wrong."
"Elder Nangong, I have made it clear enough." Xia Bo shrugged and said, "If you still don't know, then there is nothing I can do."
"Yes." After seeing Xia Bo's attitude, he knew that this matter could not be hidden, so he asked seriously: "But, how did you know this secret?"
"How I know this secret is my own business. It seems that you don't need to know." Xia Bo found a place to sit down and said calmly: "I can tell you that I am not from your Nangong family.
Neither is he from the Dongfang family."
"Elder Nangong, I didn't tell him this secret." Seeing Elder Nangong looking at him, Dongfang Shuo hurriedly shook his head and said, "If this guy hadn't suddenly mentioned it, I would have almost forgotten it."
"Boy, you are very good." Elder Nangong ignored Elder Dongfang at all and said to Xia Bo with an evil smile: "However, I think you will never have the chance to tell the second person."
"This has been a secret that has been hidden for thousands of years. Even most people in the Dongfang family and Nangong family are not qualified to know." Xia Bo naturally knew what Elder Nangong meant and planned to do something to him, so he said:
"Elder Nangong, don't you find it strange that I know this?"
"Strange? It's indeed strange." A sharp dagger appeared in Elder Nangong's hand, shining with ice blue light: "However, it won't be strange after disappearing between heaven and earth."
"I was told by a man who has lived for thousands of years." Feeling the cold light emanating from the dagger, Xia Bo took a step back: "If I am in any danger, this man will definitely not let your Nangong family go.
.”
"A person who has lived for thousands of years?" Elder Nangong was stunned, with a little more fear in his eyes.
"Boy, who are you lying to?" Dongfang Shuo couldn't help but smile and said: "If it were true, how could you have been locked in a cage by me before?"
"I knew I was not in danger before, so she naturally didn't come out." Xia Bo said lightly: "But it's different now. As long as my life is in danger, she will appear."
Dongfang Shuo was immediately dumbfounded and could only look at Elder Nangong.
"It was all a misunderstanding. I was just joking for you." A bright smile appeared on Elder Nangong's face, and he put his arm around Xia Bo's shoulders and said, "Where is that senior? Please introduce him to us.
"
"This senior usually doesn't show up." Xia Bo breathed a sigh of relief: "I don't think you need to invite him."
"Okay then." Elder Nangong hesitated for a while, finally compromised, and then asked seriously: "Besides you and that senior, does anyone else know this secret?"
"Elder Nangong, don't worry, no one else knows." Xia Bo said directly, hoping that the other party would feel relieved, and then said: "If Elder Shi from Taibai Gate knows, it is estimated that everyone in the world will know."
"That's true." Elder Nangong said with sharp eyes: "I also hope that little brother you can keep this secret forever, otherwise, don't blame our Nangong family for being cruel."
"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone." Xia Bo nodded: "Elder Nangong, can you do us a favor? We need some of the Dongfang family's most holy perfect blood. I hope you can help me tell Elder Dongfang.
Tell me."
"No problem." Elder Nangong said confidently.
Dongfang Shuo looked at Xia Bo and felt that Xia Bo was not simple, so he thought to himself: "It seems that I will not have any issues with Xia Bo in the future, so as not to bring unnecessary trouble to myself."
After returning, Dongfang Shuo looked ugly and ordered the tribesmen to let Young Master Tsing Yi and the others go and continue the celebration banquet.
The people in the Dongfang family didn't know the reason and didn't dare to ask Dongfang Shuo, so they had no choice but to accept it.
"Xia Bo, what are you talking about?" The fat man asked in a low voice: "Why doesn't the elder care about us?"
"Actually, I didn't say anything." Xia Bo said calmly: "I just explained that this matter was said by Elder Shi and has nothing to do with us."
"Is this enough?" The fat man couldn't believe it.
"How complicated do you think it is?" Xia Bo nodded and said, "Elder Dongfang is very kind. As long as he explains calmly, he will not embarrass us."
