Chapter 159 An unexpected gain

Chapter 159 An unexpected gain
Fu Shaoping dodged through the layers of vines, and slapped his right palm forward. The Heaven-Flipping Seal suddenly turned into a mountain and destroyed the main hall door with a loud bang. Rocks flew everywhere, and what came into view was a statue more than ten meters high.

The moment I saw the statue.

Fu Shaoping was stunned for a moment.

The statue revered as the river god is actually in the shape of a tree.

only.

The tree was completely black.

at this time.

Shrouded in hazy black light.

Countless vines sprouted from the tree.

"Purple Thunder Talisman, explode!"

The moment Fu Shaoping rushed in, the purple thunder talisman in his hand was activated.

Rumble.

But I saw lightning all over the sky above Tianhe Palace.

A streak of purple lightning crashed down on the sacred tree.

"No!"

The third elder who was outside the hall and wanted to rush back to provide support was already too late.

Under the purple thunder.

sizzle.

The sacred tree was destroyed directly.

the other side.

After the Third Elder, without the blessing of the sacred tree, returned to his original form, he looked down at you, only to see that the wound that had cut him in half had reappeared. A trace of unwillingness flashed in his eyes, and he fell to the ground with a bang, his body broken into two.

Amy Yip stepped forward and kicked him.

Turning his head to look at Fu Shaoping:
"Brother Shaoping, we have solved a big case!"

Experience life and death together.

Amy Yip's way of addressing Fu Shaoping also changed.

Fu Shaoping looked at the broken sacred tree in the main hall and suddenly remembered something:
"The God and Demon Tree!"

According to the "Qingdi Changsheng Jue", if you want to practice this skill, you need to obtain the seeds of the God and Demon Tree.

But he clearly remembered that it would take thousands of years for the God and Demon Tree to develop a trace of intelligence, so how could this God and Demon Tree know how to pretend to be a river god?
"wrong!"

Fu Shaoping's pupils shrank.

He immediately pulled Amy Yip out.

Amy Yip didn't understand why.
Just as they were leaving, a demon with an ox-head and a horse-face slowly emerged from where they were standing. The demon's eyes were filled with cruelty: "I have finally found a place to stay, and you dare to destroy it. Prepare to die!"

Finished.

But I saw that there was a demonic energy rolling around him.

Amy Yip whipped the plum branch, and the branch was instantly corroded by the evil spirit:
"go!"

The strength of this monster is far superior to theirs.

Without thinking, Fu Shaoping immediately used the Qi Transformation Escape Technique, but at this moment he was shocked to find that he could not mobilize the vitality in his body. He turned his head and saw that Ye Zimei was also in the same situation. He looked closely and saw that the evil energy was lingering around, forming a magic spell that was looming:
"Oops!"

Fu Shaoping quickly thought about how to deal with it.

When the monster saw that Fu Shaoping and the other man were unable to move, it sneered and walked towards the hundred children, intending to eat first.

Suddenly!

A sword light whistled from the sky.

Rumble!
The sword light directly split the magic rune.

Fu Shaoping and the other person immediately dodged a few times and left Tianhe Palace.

The sword rainbow came from the Changlin River.

Fu Zhichang, who found that he could not contact Fu Shaoping, rushed over in time. Seeing the monster with an ox-head and horse-face, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he was not afraid. He pointed the flying sword, and the flying sword spun around, forming an eight-diagram array in the air and pointing forward.

Instantly.

Thousands of flying swords shot out from the Bagua Talisman Formation.

The monster's pupils shrank.

There are words to read.

The right palm slammed on the ground.

Rumble.

Mud and rocks gathered into a wall, and as the monster quickly drew a rune on the wall, a flash of demonic energy suddenly appeared on the wall.

Ding Ding Ding!
Thousands of sword energies fell on the magic wall.

Thousands of sparks were emitted.

But it was unable to break through the magic wall's defense.

Fu Zhichang's spell changed, and the Bagua talisman formation in the sky trembled slightly, and a giant sword nearly twenty feet long condensed out. As he swung it forward, the giant sword made a "puff" sound, and easily broke through the magic wall and shot towards the face of the monster.

The monster was defeated at first sight.

I wanted to escape immediately.

The magic light emerges from the body!
Otherwise.

Just now.

Under his feet, a fierce ghost suddenly jumped out, opened his mouth and roared, at the same time, black silk was emitted from the curved horns, and the soul vortex and the black silk net immediately enveloped the monster, slowing down its movements.

He never expected it.

Fu Shaoping, who was escaping for his life, actually set up an ambush in advance.

Wait until he reacts.

The giant sword had already chopped down directly between its eyebrows.

There was a click.

The monster was immediately split in half.

A magic crystal fell to the ground with a clink.

"Thank you, Patriarch, for your timely assistance!"

Fu Shaoping bowed to Fu Zhichang, and Ye Zimei beside him also hurriedly saluted. A demon creature actually appeared in their Ye family's territory, but their Ye family was not aware of anything. This demon with an ox head and a horse face was obviously already in the Tianyuan realm. After devouring these nearly a hundred children, it would probably break through to the Yuandan realm!
Give it time.

The entire Changning Town will be under his control.

What's even more terrifying is.

Once this place becomes the demon clan's stronghold, the Ye family will be almost exterminated.

The Ye family owes the Fu family a big favor.

at this time.

The movement died down.

The mayor of Changning Town finally arrived.

Ye Zimei snorted coldly:
"There have been monsters hidden in Changning Town for hundreds of years, but you, as the mayor, were completely unaware of it. You clearly knew that a battle had taken place in Tianhe Palace, but you still didn't show up. You are such a good mayor!"

"Second Miss, I am..."

"You don't need to explain to me. Just go back to the clan's punishment hall and confess your crime."

Amy Yip didn't even look at the other person.

All the children in the sacks were freed.

The mayor of Changning Town was already pale, but he still tried to make amends and said with a licking face:
"Second Miss, I will ask their father to come and take these children back in a while. You have worked hard all day, please go back to the inn and have a rest first."

Their father pushed his daughter into the fire pit even though he knew it was a fire pit. If he took his daughter back home, he would probably sell her again.

Ye Zimei said coldly:
"Arrange a boat to send these girls back to Qingqiu County. I will make the arrangements."

"Yes Yes Yes"

The mayor of Changning Town nodded and bowed quickly.

Fu Shaoping walked into the main hall and took a look around:
"what?"

His eyes lit up slightly.

A wave of his right hand.

A date-sized seed with runes all over it flew out from the crack of the collapsed house and landed in his palm:
"The seeds of the God and Demon Tree!"

This is an unexpected surprise.

Fu Shaoping placed the seeds in the box, sealed it, and then threw it into the storage bag.

After coming out of the main hall.

But he saw Li Dazhuang's daughter looking at him eagerly:
"You want to go home?"

"Well, I can't bear to leave my elder and second sisters."

San Ya was very cautious because she had already been sold. If she wanted to go back now, it would obviously depend on the feelings of Fu Shaoping and others. Fu Shaoping smiled and said:
"Okay, I'll take you home right now."

"Brother Shaoping"

Amy Yip standing by obviously didn't want San Ya to fall into the fire again.

Fu Shaoping said:
"Friend Ye, do you think her father, Li Dazhuang, was only guilty of selling his daughter?"

Naturally not.

He was clearly the indirect murderer of his daughter.

Amy Yip understood immediately.

When the two men brought San Ya to West Street, the last thatched house on West Street was in great commotion.

But I saw it inside the fence.

Li Dazhuang threw a piece of paper directly at his wife's face and said coldly:
"You heard what Doctor Liu said just now. Since you can't have another child, what's the point of keeping you in this family? If it weren't for Dabao, what's thrown in front of you now is not a divorce agreement, but a divorce agreement. Hurry up and get out!"

Da Zhuang's wife sobbed and cried.

She never expected it.

The person I had obeyed for half my life actually wanted to divorce him!

Everyone in my mother's family has died long ago.

Who can she rely on if she leaves this home?
Da Zhuang's wife lay on Li Da Zhuang and refused to leave no matter what.

"Let go!"

Li Dazhuang raised his leg and kicked her hard in the chest.

"mother!"

When San Ya saw her mother vomiting blood after being kicked, she immediately ran over, blocked Li Dazhuang, and glared at him fiercely.

Li Dazhuang was stunned for a moment and became furious:
"How dare you sneak back here, little girl!"

What if the buyer asks him to return the money?

When he was about to grab San Ya and take her back to Tianhe Palace, he saw a man and a woman in the courtyard. Then, two people dressed as guards came in and took Li Dazhuang out. Li Dazhuang was stunned:
"What are you doing? What are you doing? Wuuwuwu."

What else do you want to say.

His mouth was stuffed with smelly cloth.

A pair of shackles were put on.

Gathered together with the man who sold his daughter last night.

In the courtyard.

Fu Shaoping looked at the somewhat excited Daya and Erya and said:
"Don't worry, your father will never come back until he dies. From now on, you will be the head of the family."

Just now, Da Zhuang's wife was divorced.

Daya and Erya were obviously just watching coldly.

From this point of view.

They obviously had no sympathy for this mother who had sold her two younger sisters in a row.

This home.

From now on, they sisters will be in charge. With the thirty taels of silver, they should be able to live a different life.

Daya was an intelligent person. She immediately understood what Fu Shaoping meant and quickly pulled her sister to kneel down: "Thank you, benefactor!"

Wait until Fu Shaoping leaves.

The two sisters immediately went into the main room.

In the main room.

Their younger brother was holding a bag of silver tightly, staring at them intently:
"What are you going to do? Daddy is gone, and I am the male of the family. From now on, I have the final say in this family, and the money will naturally be under my control!"

"You are worthy of being our brother!"

Daya raised her hand and slapped the other person.

He snatched the purse from the other person's arms and said coldly:
"If you don't want to starve to death in the future, just be obedient!"

If it weren't for this little brother who kept clamoring to go to school, his father wouldn't have thought of selling Si Ya. Although San Ya returned safely, Si Ya would never come back.

Outside the hospital.

Da Zhuang's wife was hesitant.

She wanted to say something for her precious son, but she gave up the idea immediately after seeing her eldest daughter's murderous gaze. She hugged Dabao who was crying loudly and said, "Bao'er, you should listen to your eldest sister from now on. No matter how bad your eldest sister is, she will never sell you out."

The aftermath of the Changning Town incident was taken over by the Ye family.

After Fu Zhichang flew the two back to Qingqiu County on his sword, the head of the Ye family learned about this. With Fu Xuemei's intercession and pressure, and with Amy Yip herself willing to marry Fu Shaoping, although he was extremely reluctant at the moment, he nodded his head.

But there is one request:
"You can marry my daughter if you want. If you can make it into the top ten in the family competition next year, I will have no objections."

The top ten families will send ten players to participate in the competition every year.

That is equivalent to picking one out of a hundred!

As for the engagement, everything will be done after next year's competition.

Fu Shaoping also wanted to go back and discuss this matter with Pan'er, so naturally he had no objection.

After returning from Qingqiu County.

Fu Zhichang summoned the nine elders.

The elders of each family frowned, wondering why the clan leader wanted to call a meeting.

Fu Zhichang briefly told the story of Fu Shaoping discovering the magic trace in Qingqiu County:
"The demonic traces are not only appearing in Qingqiu County, but also in the twelve states. I'm afraid that the peace agreement between us and the Heavenly Demon Dynasty will not last long. Before the great changes come, we have to find a way to improve our own strength. Otherwise, if a war breaks out, there will be no one in our clan who can have a say in the army. I'm afraid we can only be sent to the front line as cannon fodder!"

The imperial court was usually very tolerant towards aristocratic families.

Just pay the tribute in full.

but.

Once a war breaks out.

Once the imperial court issues a conscription order, all the noble families must respond.

Previously, there was a fourth-rank noble family that relied on its geographical location to gain an advantage and had a large mountain protection formation. They thought that the imperial court could not do anything to them, so they openly disobeyed orders. As a result, they were razed to the ground overnight by the masters dispatched by the imperial court.

Since then.

No one in the major families dared to disobey the imperial court's conscription order.

"Of course, the war between the two dynasties didn't happen overnight. I'm just making preparations for a rainy day. You don't have to take it too seriously."

"also"

"I also brought back good news from Qingqiu County."

A word of dialogue.

Fu Zhichang took a sip of Wuling tea.

Then he smiled and said:
"The Ye family has agreed to form an alliance with our Fu family and marry their second daughter, Ye Zimei, who is descended from the lineage of their patriarch, into our Fu family!"

"Oh, that's a great joy!"

The second elder's face lit up with joy.

Because before this.

They have discussed this countless times.

He said with some regret:
"It would be even better if my sister Ye Ziqian married here."

Because as far as he knows.

His own grandson Shaoqing likes Ye Ziqian more.

Obviously.

He naturally thought that the person of the marriage would be his beloved grandson Shaoqing.

The patriarch coughed lightly.

Know that the other party has misunderstood.

He smiled and explained:
"Shao Ping performed well in Changning Town and won the favor of the second lady of the Ye family. After meeting Shao Ping, the head of the Ye family also nodded and decided to set the date for their wedding after the family competition next year. Of course, the premise is that Shao Ping can enter the top ten of the competition next year."

This statement came out.

The second elder's expression suddenly turned stiff.

Frowning:
"Clan leader, you had been talking about the marriage partner being Shao Qing, why did you suddenly change your mind? How can I explain this to Shao Qing?"

"Doesn't Shao Qing prefer the eldest daughter of the Ye family? Since Shao Ping relied on his own charm to make the second daughter of the Ye family marry him, Shao Qing should also rely on his own strength to fight for him, right?"

Fu Zhichang said calmly.

The second elder's expression changed.

The clan leader has already explained that the two families are marrying off to Fu Shaoping, the second young lady of the Ye family.

He sighed in his heart.

The Ye family had not agreed to Shaoqing's marriage before, and now that they have married their second daughter, why would they bring in another daughter?
