Nine Tribulations True Immortal

Chapter 41 The Conspiracy of the Crane in the Cloud
The night of the 24th of the twelfth lunar month was a moonless night. There were no stars in the sky, it was pitch black, and the cold wind was blowing on the bare trees, causing the guards of the Yun family who were still on duty in the courtyard to shrink their necks.

When Qin Yuxuan was still diligently practicing spells in the Qiankun ring space, in the inner courtyard of the Yun family, three young monks dressed in the costumes of collateral disciples walked towards the secret room under the summoning of a direct disciple.

These four people were none other than Yun Zhongyong and the three casual cultivators who had just been recruited into Yun's family by way of marriage.

And in the main seat of the secret room, there was already a person sitting. This person was wearing a white brocade robe and had a gloomy face. It was Yun Zhonghe, the young master of the Yun family.

After the four of them were seated, the three casual cultivators bowed to Yun Zhonghe together and said, "Brother He, I wonder why you summoned us here?"

Yun Zhonghe coughed twice at this time, and then said with a gloomy face: "The three of you are not outsiders. Zhongyong also talked about my Yun family to you before. The reason for calling you here today is probably the reason for the three of you." Guess how much..."

The three casual cultivators all nodded. They had learned something about the internal struggles of the Yun family from Yun Zhongyong.

Yun Zhonghe glanced at the people present, and then continued: "I think you all know very well that the conflict between me and that little bitch Yun Zhongxi is irreconcilable..."

"Now, in order to be the head of the family, that little bitch is willing to condescend to marry a foreign waste. This young master can't bear it anymore! For the sake of my Yun family's reputation, I must never let Mu Cheng, a waste, stay in the Yun family...so I want you all Kill this person for me!"

When he said these words, a fierce light flashed in Yun Zhonghe's small eyes.

After hearing this, the three of them looked at each other in blank dismay.Although they knew that from the day they joined the Yun family, they would be in a hostile relationship with Miss Yun.But who would have thought that when he came to the Yun family, his first task was to kill Miss Yun's fiancé.

After a while, one of the casual cultivators named Tao Han, Fang cautiously reminded: "Brother He, we do know a thing or two about this from Brother Zhongyong. To deal with Mu Cheng, I believe any of the three of us can make a move with ease." Take his life... But now, this kid doesn't leave the house at all, and Yun Zhongxi has sent a few guards to follow him all the time... How do we do this?"

After hearing this, Yun Zhonghe showed a look of disdain, and he snorted coldly and said, "Tao Han, have you forgotten that tomorrow is the time for the family quiz... After Mu Cheng joined my Yun family, he was also considered a bystander." He is one of the disciples. But his strength is too weak. Among my Yun family disciples, he definitely belongs to the bottom role. I believe you must understand this point..."

"The annual family quiz, all collateral disciples must take part, and there is no excuse. Therefore, Mu Cheng will definitely take part, there is no doubt about it!"

"During the family quiz, although there were regulations that forbid killing people during the competition, as long as the opponent admits defeat, they can no longer make a move. But in fact, it is common to accidentally injure someone during a battle... In the previous family quiz, both sides It's inevitable that you can't hold back your hands!"

Speaking of this, Yun Zhonghe showed a hint of viciousness in his eyes and said: "So, I need you to compete with Mu Cheng. Then you can pretend to miss in the quiz, accidentally injure and kill someone, and then you can get away with it. You must know that my father is a member of the clan. The Second Elder is in charge of the assessment and judgment of the clan, and it will not be a matter of excuses for you at that time!"

"After all, no matter which cultivating family it is, when making a decision, it will always favor the side of the powerful. This is the reason for the winner and the loser. Could it be that they will make things difficult for a dead man?"

The three of them suddenly realized when they heard this.

Only then did they understand that Yun Zhonghe summoned the three of them here because he hoped that they would kill Mu Cheng in the family quiz tomorrow.

However, they have also heard that in the family quiz, the opponents are determined by drawing lots.What if the three of them didn't get Mu Cheng?

When another casual cultivator named Lu Qian raised this question, Yun Zhonghe laughed loudly and said, "You don't have to worry about this, my father is the elder who is responsible for organizing the assessment contests within the clan. Due to the busy schedule, I will arrange the drawing of lots... I will guarantee that you will be able to draw Mu Cheng at that time!"

The three of them no longer had any doubts, and they all expressed that they would definitely follow the orders of the young master.

"Well! If you can all enter the top three collateral disciples this time, you will be able to enjoy the treatment of direct disciples in the coming year. In terms of the distribution of family cultivation resources, you will receive more care and favor than collateral disciples. In the future, if I become As a new Patriarch, the three will definitely be rewarded a lot!" Yun Zhonghe chuckled and said, "At that time, as long as I can eat meat, I will absolutely guarantee that everyone will have soup..."

When the three casual cultivators heard this, they immediately burst into smiles, and there was a lot of flattery at the scene.

After the scene became quieter, Yunzhong Hefang told a casual cultivator named Lu Qiong: "Xiang Lu, tomorrow I will arrange you to be Mu Cheng's first opponent. You must pay attention: you must Abandon that kid, even if he can't be killed on the spot, his cultivation must be abolished so that he can never practice again! Remember not to be soft-handed then!"

"Yes!" Although Lu Qiong agreed with his lips, his eyes rolled sharply, thinking that although Yun Zhonghe had promised, his father would help him to excuse himself.But who knows if it can be fulfilled by then, after all, Yun Dingfeng didn't come to guarantee it himself.

Seeing Lu Qiong's hesitant expression, Yun Zhonghe already guessed what he was afraid of.

Therefore, Fang Fang laughed heartily and said, "You don't have to be afraid, brother Lu Xian. Although the rules of the competition say that once the opponent admits defeat, you can't fight anymore. But if you really fight, how can you just stop if you say you should stop? The previous few family quizzes , Are there fewer people who were killed and injured? Didn’t the disciple who accidentally injured someone in the end be released after only three months of confinement! All treatment has no effect. After all, the loser shows that his skills are inferior to others, and the winner The people with the highest skills! Whether it is the head of the family or the elders, they all know very well that they should favor the disciples with higher skills, or the disciples with inferior skills!"

Speaking of this, he emphasized his tone: "So, Brother Lu Xian, when you confront Mu Cheng, never show mercy! Even if you are locked up for this reason... I can guarantee you to come out early, and I can also reward you with three thousand Lingshi is used as a shock fee!"

When the three disciples heard this, they all gasped, three thousand spirit stones was not a small amount for casual cultivators like them.It can also be seen from this that Yun Zhonghe spent a lot of money in order to achieve his goal.

"Follow the order of the young master!" Since there is such a generous reward of spirit stones, Lu Qiong will naturally not refuse.

"Okay! Then go back and prepare well! Don't embarrass me in this family quiz! After all, everyone in the family can guess that you are mine." Yun Zhonghe saw that he had already said what he had to confess. It's almost there, Fang said coldly.

Lu Qiong, Lu Qian, Tao Han and the other three naturally said yes, and then went back to their respective rooms to meditate and adjust their breath, preparing for the competition tomorrow.
