Chapter 20: Hu Family Banquet (End)
At the same time, at the Hu family, everyone was concentrating on the food and wine in front of them. No one spoke. Hu Weidi, who was sitting at the head, frowned a little at this time, because he knew in advance that Xu Tianfu from the Blood Demon Cult would come. At the same time, because he was confident in his own strength, he took this opportunity to put some pressure on the disciples of many forces to achieve his own goal.
The first thing was solved perfectly. Although I don’t know what conditions Yuenu Jian will put forward, it is always better to have a request than to refuse it outright.
The second thing Hu Weidi originally wanted to propose was that everyone in the underground palace should unite to gain opportunities, but seeing that the disciples from the major sects in the audience were a little unruly, although they were shocked by his martial arts at first, they soon returned to their previous attitude. This made Hu Weidi a little puzzled, and he began to think about what conditions could be changed for the second thing he proposed that would be beneficial to the Hu family and acceptable to everyone.
Mr. Zhou from the Yinmo Group sitting at the middle table took a look at Hu Weidi and couldn't help but laugh: This Hu Weidi is really interesting. He thought that just making a few gestures like this would have some effect. This person has stayed in a small place for too long, and his vision has limited his development.
With his current strength, he can indeed put some pressure on the young people present, but he doesn't think about how old these young people are, and he may not even be able to beat Tang Yu.
These disciples of the big sects all have backers. Even Han Xiao from the Jianxie Sect, who looks the most useless, is one of the top five young people of the Jianxie Sect. If Hu Weidi does something more excessive, one of the young men might go home and complain.
Although I don't know what test task Liu Emei discussed with the little girl named Meng Ting, but judging from the expressions of both parties just now, it is definitely disadvantageous to the Hu family. Little did he know that Hu Weidi thought he had intimidated the little girl from the Yuenu Sword Society. What a good show. Haha, if Hu Weidi was smart, he should have just let the second thing go.
Lord Zhou from the Hidden Ink Group couldn't help but laugh secretly a few times when thinking about this, which made the two captains beside him a little confused.
At this time, Xu Tianfu had already recovered from his internal injuries and thanked Tang Yu again:
"Thank you for your help, Brother Tang. Otherwise, I would have been embarrassed by the head of this small place. If the news got back to my sect, it would have had a significant impact on my status . I owe Brother Tang a favor for this."
Tang Yu didn't take it seriously. He cupped his hands and said, "Brother Xu, you are too polite. Hu Weidi must have known that you were coming, so he used you to intimidate us. Sigh, you are from a small family and don't understand the actual situation. When he made his move just now, I was a little stunned, but after thinking about it, I understood what the head of the Hu family meant."
Xu Tianfu also reacted at this time and said: "I see, my movements along the way have been very obvious, it is normal for Hu Weidi to find me. So even if I didn't do it just now, Hu Weidi would force me to fight him.
I understand. He wants to improve his status and take advantage of the situation to increase his voice. He must have something to ask for, but his vision limits his plans. "
Tang Yu was a little surprised to hear Xu Tianfu's answer and said, "Brother Xu, there is a big difference between taking action and not taking action. I thought you would go forward and fight him without saying anything."
Xu Tianfu shook his head and smiled bitterly, "This is all due to the evil spirit that is generated when the Blood Demon Sect practices its skills, which fuels the evil spirit in my body. My nickname of Bloodthirsty Hands is because once I practice my skills, the gloves on my hands will turn bloody, which doesn't mean that I'm the kind of lunatic who is bloodthirsty for no reason."
After hearing this, Tang Yu nodded and said, "I have never met anyone from the Blood Demon Sect before. It's just that Brother Xu's sect doesn't have a very good reputation, so my first impression was a bit biased. I'm sorry, Brother Xu."
Xu Tianfu said, "Brother Tang, you are too polite. We in the Nine Netherworlds don't like reputation. It's just that my Blood Demon Sect's skills look too bloody. In addition, there are not many people from my Blood Demon Sect who officially venture into the martial arts world. Even if we have a little reputation, we fought and killed our way out. So we just follow the crowd and become what we are now. This is not bad. The bad reputation naturally has its role."
Tang Yu was completely impressed by Xu Tianfu. He had previously thought that Xu Tianfu would continue to fight against Hu Weidi, but judging from his current situation, he should be a very rational person who clearly considered the pros and cons. As expected, rumors in the martial arts world cannot be believed. He continued:
"Brother Xu, how are you going to deal with the Hu family? Judging from Hu Weidi's expression, he should have realized his mistake and won't put forward any unnecessary conditions. This farce should end soon."
Xu Tianfu nodded and said, "That's true. No matter what conditions he proposes, just don't agree or refuse. As for dealing with the Hu family, we'll have to wait until after we finish the underground palace. After that, it will be the most chaotic time. This time in the underground palace, it looks like Brother Tang will have to wait outside with me."
Tang Yu also nodded and said, "That's right. When I came to Jinyang City, I learned that only warriors in the marrow refining stage could enter. After other sects got the news, they should have withdrawn a lot of people. After all, the second-generation young disciples that the major sects focused on training either had insufficient cultivation or exceeded their cultivation. It is estimated that the ones who entered the underground palace this time are just these few people.
However, since you are here, you have to watch the show to the end. The court official sitting in the middle seems to be very interested in the Hu family. Maybe you don’t need to do anything. I heard that the situation in the Great Mo Dynasty is a bit tense recently, so they will clean up some disobedient families. "
Xu Tianfu said indifferently: "Then let's watch the show. I came here to try my luck and see if there is anyone above 80th place on the list to improve my ranking. However, the attack with Hu Weidi gave me a lot of insights."
Tang Yu said: "Then Brother Xu, can you sense Hu Weidi's specific cultivation level? "
Xu Tianfu frowned and said, "He should still be in the Qi training stage, maybe he has already reached the great perfection of Qi training. His skills are somewhat extraordinary and should be able to repel the early stage of the acquired stage. As for the middle stage, it seems a bit difficult."
After hearing this, Tang Yu felt that it was pretty much what he had expected, so he didn't say anything more. He just looked at Hu Weidi to see how he would finish the play.
Hu Weidi coughed a few times and said, "My fellow knights and the court officials should have eaten almost everything. Let me tell you about the second thing. Most of you are going to enter the underground palace to seek opportunities. I, Hu Yi, am not strong enough, so I hope you can take good care of me while I am in the underground palace. Thank you very much."
Everyone was stunned after hearing this. His attitude changed very quickly. He seemed a little coercive when he spoke to Liu Emei just now, but now he was so polite. Tang Yu and Xu Tianfu exchanged glances and nodded.
Lord Zhou from the Hidden Ink Group also stroked his beard and thought: It's a pity that Hu Wei is trapped in this small place. It's not easy to recognize himself and make changes in an instant based on the reactions of others. But no matter how big a figure you are, strength is still the key in this world. What a pity, what a pity.
No one at the table responded to Hu Weidi's request, and the scene fell into an awkward situation for a moment. Hu Yi next to him was a little angry. He wanted to say something but was forced back by Hu Weidi's eyes.
At this time, a servant of the Hu family ran in from outside the door and said that he had something important to report to the master of the family.
Hu Weidi took this opportunity to leave, and after Meng Ting said a few polite words, everyone said goodbye to the Hu family one by one.
Before leaving, Mr. Zhou guessed something and smiled in the direction of Hu Weidi. Then he left with the two constables beside him.
At this time, Hu Weidi already knew that the Dihu Society and Jiaoshe Gang were completely wiped out by the government officials, and he was furious. But today, seeing that Mr. Zhou could calm down the aftermath of the battle between him and Xu Tianfu with just a flick of his sleeves, he knew in his heart that he was no match for him, and at this moment he could only endure, endure, and endure again. There will always be a chance.
Hu Yi ran over and said, "Dad, isn't everything going according to plan? Why did you say something like asking them to take care of me in the end?"
Hu Weidi looked at his idiot son in front of him and couldn't help but sigh: "Hey, Yi'er, this plan was wrong from the beginning. Even if your father is stronger than them, it's useless. You have to know that they are all famous sects. They can be sent out to compete for the opportunity of the underground palace. Naturally, they have backers in their own forces. My strength is only similar to their young generation. My vision is too narrow, and I end up drawing a tiger but end up drawing a dog instead of a tiger.
Fortunately, at least Meng Ting's problem has been solved. After the underground palace is over, our Hu family should also test the outside forces. Jinyang City is still too small. Yi'er, you should focus on safety this time. Don't think about snatching any opportunities. After all, your strength is too different from that of the disciples of the big sects. Although they didn't promise to take care of you, as long as you don't take the initiative to provoke them, they won't attack you. "
After hearing this, Hu Yi could only nod in agreement, but he was still extremely unwilling in his heart. He had always gotten whatever he wanted in Jinyang City, but now a few outsiders came and he had to hide. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He thought that this underground palace formation should block the view of the outside world, and if he launched a sneak attack, he might be able to get rid of them, and then he could blame everything on the danger of the formation.
The more Hu Yi thought about it, the more excited he became, and he couldn't help but look forward to the underground palace opening soon.
After seeing everyone off and leaving the Hu family, Meng Ting was very satisfied with the banquet. She had dragged on long enough, and the Dihu Society should have been dealt with. Moreover, Liu Emei also clearly stood on her side. All that was left was to use Hu Yi's life to help her escape from this cage.
Then he thought of Lin Mo and couldn't help but sigh a few times. Forget it. The world is big and maybe we won't meet again after I go to the Yue Girl Sword Club. Waiting until the final transaction is done will be a conclusion. This is also good. I can start a new life.
Everything seems very peaceful tonight, but no one cares about the turbulent undercurrent beneath the calm. He is angry, he is mocking, he is excited, she is melancholy, and he remains calm as always, experiencing the ups and downs, joys and sorrows, and happiness.
