C703 Make a Move
"So you have confessed?" Ren Xiao took a sip of tea and asked calmly. As the young master of the Prefecture, his father had forbidden him from making friends with the other Prefecture Lords. However, he knew that his brother, Ren Ningqi, had recommended seven City Lords. At that time, he was very envious. With the support of the City Lord, the position of Prefecture Lord would be more stable. Who knew that his brother would suddenly die? Ren Xiao's mind was alive.
According to the ranking, the heir should be him. Then, should he also learn from his big brother and recommend a few City Masters? Therefore, he wanted to take down the city lord of Pengjia City with the matter of Black Wind Stronghold and recommend a person to take charge of Pengjia City. Wouldn't the person who became the city lord be grateful to him? This was the best time to cultivate his own power!
Peng Yaohsing wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and stood up. He bowed deeply to Peng Yaohsing and said, "Regarding the matters of Black Wind Stronghold, this old man was muddle-headed for a moment. I was greedy for small amounts of money. I hope Second Young Master can forgive me. In the future, if you can use this old man's money, this old man will go through all kinds of hardships and never give up!"
Ren Xiao muttered to himself and did not say anything. He could tell that Peng Yaohsing was surrendering to him and wanted to seek refuge with him. Peng Yaohsing had been operating in Pengjia City for hundreds of years. He was deeply rooted and powerful. If he accepted this person, he would be a great help. Should he accept him?
While he was hesitating, Ren Biyao coughed lightly and said, "City Lord Peng, I would advise you to admit your crimes to the Prefecture Lord. Do you think you can hide this little trick from your father? If that is the case, father will not let us eliminate the bandits all the way. If you take the initiative to admit your mistakes, perhaps you still have a chance to live. Otherwise, it will definitely implicate the entire Peng Family."
Ren Biyao's words were like five bolts of lightning that shook Ren Xiao awake from his intoxication. A layer of cold sweat appeared on his back. It was chilly. That's right. He only wanted to take Peng Yaohsing's benefits, but he never thought that the news would reach his father. What should his father think?
Even if there were all kinds of benefits in accepting Peng Yaohsing, he couldn't afford to lose out because of small gains. Anger appeared on his face. He slammed the table and shouted, "Peng Yaohsing, you are really stubborn. Do you still want to be forgiven at this time? If I let you go, who would be lenient to those criminals who were killed by you? Do you know how many people have been killed in Black Wind Stronghold and how many people have been robbed of their belongings? How many people have their wives and children separated, and how many families have been destroyed? "
Peng Yaohsing's face was full of death. He knew he was finished. He looked at Ren Biyao with hatred. He had already seen that Ren Xiao was moved by his loyalty. He was secretly delighted in his heart. Who would have thought that he would be ruined by Ren Biyao?
"Yes. Second Young Master is right. This old man will personally head to Xingyi City to apologize to the Prefecture Master. I cannot accompany Second Young Master and Second Miss. Farewell!"
Looking at Peng Yaohsing's departing back, Ren Biyao shook her head. She whispered to the late stage incarnation cultivator beside her. "Elder Lu, please look at him. If you find him running away, kill him on the spot!" How could she not see Peng Yaohsing's hatred towards her just now? Moreover, she had a special ability - Mind Reading. It was just that she did not use it often. Every time she used it, it would consume a lot of energy. Just now, she had read that Peng Yaohsing had hatred in his heart and wanted to run away.
"Yes!" Elder Lu flashed and followed.
"Second sister is afraid that he will run away from his crimes?" Ren Xiao asked in surprise, "Does he have that much courage? Isn't he afraid that he will implicate the entire Peng Family?"
"Humph, this man is extremely cunning and cruel. Otherwise, he wouldn't have secretly nurtured a place like Black Wind Stronghold. As long as he survives, he won't be able to care about his family. With him around, there is hope for the Peng Family. Their children and wives are gone, and they can be remarried and remarried!" Ren Biyao said with a cold snort. These were all Peng Yaohsing's true thoughts.
Ren Xiao shook his head. It seemed like Peng Yaohsing had suffered a lot. Elder Lu and Elder Ann were the two strongest Deification Period guards. They had already reached the ninth level of the Soul Formation realm, and their combat strength was formidable. Peng Yaohsing was only a Deification Middle Period warrior, so how could he be a match for Elder Lu?
After the time for an incense stick to burn, a violent explosion came from the Pengjia City. A figure shot into the sky in a sorry state, turned into a ray of bloody light and fled.
Then, a loud shout was heard, "What a thief! How dare you run away?! Where are you going?!" It was Elder Lu's angry voice. It turned into a flash and chased after him.
"He really took this step. Elder Ann, you guys go and surround the Peng Family. No one from the Peng Family is allowed to escape!" Ren Xiao ordered with a serious expression. Then, he shouted, "Deputy City Lord of Pengjia City, Yu Cangshan, come and see me!"
"Yes!" Elder Ann flashed and led the rest of the Soul Formation cultivators to the Peng Family. He shouted, "The city lord of Pengjia City, Peng Yaohsing, secretly cultivated the Black Wind Stronghold and brought disaster to the world. Now, he is escaping with guilt. I am ordered to capture the remnants of the Peng Family. No one is allowed to leave the city without permission. Anyone who disobeys will be killed!"
At this moment, the city lord's mansion was in chaos. Fifteen minutes ago, City Lord hurried back and entered the secret chamber. As soon as he came out, he launched an attack on Elder Lu who was following him and fled. All the people of Peng Family were dumbfounded. They didn't understand what had happened until they heard Elder Ann's words. Only then did they know that something big had happened.
Peng Mingshang stood in the courtyard in a daze. A huge gap appeared on the wall. It was caused by his father's desperate escape. He didn't understand what had happened to his father. Could it be that he didn't care about the entire Peng Family?
"Big brother, big brother, why are you in such a daze? Hurry up and come up with a plan! Didn't you know Second Young Master and Second Miss? Ask them for mercy and tell them that we don't know anything about our father. It has nothing to do with us!" Peng Mingshang's younger brother came to his brother's side at a loss of what to do and cried.
"I am ordered to arrest the suspect, Peng Yaohsing's family. No one from the Peng Family is allowed to leave the residence and wait to be detained. Anyone who violates the order will be killed on the spot!" Elder Ann's voice was still far away. In the blink of an eye, he appeared in the sky above Pengjia City. A powerful pressure was released. Over a hundred people from Peng Prefecture were lying on the ground in fear, while Peng Mingshang's face was as pale as a sheet. He had completely lost his strength.
"Big brother, big brother, quickly go and beg Second Young Master!"
"It's over, everything is over!"
...
Not far away, Feng Yimo and Liu Ruomei watched as everyone from the Peng Family's cultivation base was crippled. They tied a string of rope together in a sorry state. Deputy City Lord Yu Cangshan sent someone to take them to the prison and send them to Xingyi City one day to listen to the news of the future Prefecture Master. All the properties of the original Prefecture were stored in Storage Rings. Deputy City Lord Yu Cangshan sent someone to take them to Xingyi City.
Liu Ruomei clenched her fists and gnashed her teeth. "They did not kill them with their own hands. It was good for them!"
Feng Yimo shook his head and said, "They will not live to Xingyi City."
