"What happened to Lin Yu and Zhou Qin?"
Qin Shi frowned and became serious.
Lin Yu, Su Ming, and Zhou Qin were Qin Shi's best friends in Lihuo Sect.
Especially Lin Yu, who had helped him a lot. He could not let anything happen to Lin Yu. "What happened?
Slow down. "
"Phew, phew, gulp!"
Su Ming had been running so fast that he was short of breath. He took a deep breath and felt better. "They … they're in the Zhou Family's house in the ancient city. They're under house arrest."
"What?
Under house arrest?
What happened? "
Qin Shi tried to stay calm and asked. He felt that something was wrong.
"Half a month ago, Zhou Qin asked Lin Yu to accompany her back to the Zhou Family, but the two of them didn't return even after a long time. In the beginning, I didn't think much of it. I thought that Zhou Qin had invited Lin Yu to the Zhou Family as a guest, so it was understandable that they were delayed." When he said this, Su Ming paused for a moment before continuing, "But they were gone for half a month, so I was a little worried.
Just now, I snuck into the Zhou Family.
When I arrived at the Zhou Family, I found out that Zhou Qin and Lin Yu were both under house arrest. "
"Why did the Zhou Family do that?"
Qin Shi asked in confusion after thinking for a while.
No matter what, Zhou Qin was the daughter of the Zhou Family. Even if she was not favored, she should have changed after joining the inner sect of Lihuo Sect.
The Zhou Family had no reason to treat Zhou Qin like this. Not to mention the fact that they were related by blood, the Lihuo Sect behind Zhou Qin was not something they could bear.
"Sigh, it's a long story. It's related to Zhou Qin's mother."
Su Ming paused and said indignantly, "I only found out how lowly Zhou Qin's mother is in the Zhou Family when I visited the Zhou Family …"
"Lowly?"
Blinking his eyes, Qin Shi was taken aback.
"Yes, Zhou Qin's father passed away mysteriously a few days after her mother married into the Zhou Family.
"Because of that, all the members of the Zhou Family ostracized her. They called her a witch and a jinx. Not only did they make her work for the Zhou Family all year round, they even sealed her in the underground prison recently," Su Ming said, clenching his fists.
Upon hearing this, Qin Shi frowned and said, "Every family has its own difficulties. No wonder Zhou Qin fought so hard to enter the Lihuo Sect."
He raised his head and asked, "But Zhou Qin is now an inner disciple of Lihuo Sect. Aren't the Zhou Family afraid of offending Lihuo Sect by doing this?"
"Don't mention it. Isn't it Zhou Yunpeng?"
"Zhou Yunpeng?
What's wrong with him? "Qin Shi frowned and asked.
"Last time, Zhou Yunpeng was expelled from the Lihuo Sect, but in the end, he joined the Yunding Sect," Su Ming said.
"What?" Qin Shi suddenly became agitated. "Zhou Yunpeng joined the Yunding Sect?"
Su Ming nodded and said, "That's right. That b * stard forgot his name after he entered the Yunding Sect.
Now, he's relying on the power of the Yunding Sect to demand that the Zhou Family execute Zhou Qin's mother. Zhou Qin and Lin Yu are also under house arrest by Zhou Yunpeng. "
After understanding what had happened, Qin Shi's face turned livid.
It was true that enemies would not meet unless they were enemies.
However, there was one thing that Qin Shi could not figure out.
Lin Yu was in the middle stage of the Spirit Sealing Realm and was proficient in the art of alchemy. Even Yun Lingzi and the other two could not do anything to him, let alone Zhou Yunpeng.
There must be something fishy going on.
"When is the Zhou Family going to execute Auntie Zhou?" Qin Shi turned around and asked.
"Tonight!"
Bang!
Qin Shi could not stand still. A wave of spiritual power surged out of him and he said, "Tonight?"
"Yes. That's why I'm so anxious. It'll be too late if I don't hurry," Su Ming said.
Qin Shi thought for a while and did not rush to the Zhou Family recklessly. "Wait."
No matter what, the Zhou Family was one of the four big families in the ancient city. Their power was not to be underestimated.
Moreover, the giant Yunding Sect was still there.
Qin Shi knew that with just him and Su Ming, they would not be able to save Lin Yu and Zhou Qin. They might even be imprisoned there.
When he realized this, Qin Shi dragged Su Ming back to the room and told Hao Shuai the whole story.
He asked Hao Shuai to report this to the elders of the Lihuo Sect, hoping to get help from them.
After doing this, Qin Shi looked up at the sky.
The sun was setting and the west was covered in gold. The two of them rushed to the ancient city.
"Shi Tou, do you think the elders will do something because of this?" Su Ming asked on the way.
"They will!" Qin Shi shouted with determination.
He knew that Lin Yu had an extraordinary background. When he first entered the Lihuo Sect, Lin Yu was valued by the Sect Leader. This alone was enough to show that the Lihuo Sect would not sit by and do nothing.
It was also because of this that he exaggerated the danger of Lin Yu's safety when he told Hao Shuai the story just now.
The two of them left the Lihuo Sect and soon arrived at the ancient city.
The Zhou Family lived in the southwest corner of the ancient city. They had a huge Zhou Mansion that was as big as a barren town.
"How corrupt." Qin Shi curled his lips as he looked at the huge mansion.
Then he took a deep breath and pushed the door open.
"Who are you?" As soon as Qin Shi entered the Zhou Family, a few burly guards rushed up and stopped him.
Qin Shi cast a glance at the guards, then patted Su Ming down and said, "Show them your plate."
Su Ming was stunned for a moment before he brought out his white plate.
"You are from the Lihuo Sect?" The guards looked at each other when they saw Su Ming's plate.
Su Ming raised his head arrogantly and said, "If you know, then why don't you inform your master and ask him to come out and greet me?
Let me tell you, I have people above me. If you neglect me, the Zhou Family will not be able to bear the consequences. "
"Ha, you are just a white disciple. What is there to be proud of?" The guard mumbled. He purposely lowered his voice, but it was enough for Qin Shi and Su Ming to hear.
After mumbling, the guard said, "Wait here. I will inform the master."
The two of them were not unhappy because of this. They waited at the door for a while.
"You two, come with me." After a few minutes, the guard came back and shouted.
Qin Shi and Su Ming looked at each other and followed the guard into the Zhou Family's mansion.
When they entered the Zhou Family, Qin Shi was even more shocked. The buildings here were magnificent. He thought to himself, "The Zhou Family is indeed one of the four big families in the ancient city. They are really something." When he thought of this, he patted Su Ming and said, "Su Ming, is the Su Family also this big?"
"How can this compare to the Su Family?
Have you forgotten that I have people above me? "
Pursing his lips, Qin Shi scolded angrily, "Keep bragging. Others may not know you, but I know you very well."
Unexpectedly, Su Ming shrugged and chose to remain silent as if he did not care.
Of course, Qin Shi did not know that he had wronged Su Ming this time. The glory of the Su Family was indeed far greater than that of the Zhou Family. When Qin Shi entered the Su Family later, his mouth was wide open and he did not speak for a long time.
Of course, this was a story for later.
After entering the main hall of the Zhou Family, the guard asked the Qin family and Su Ming to wait in the hall.
"Aiyo, you two little brothers, what brings you here?"
Not long after, a middle-aged man dressed in luxurious clothes walked into the hall and said, "I am Zhou Tong, the current master of the Zhou Family. May I know why the two young geniuses of the Lihuo Sect have come to the Zhou Family?"
"Master of the Zhou Family …"
Seeing Zhou Tong, Su Ming was about to stand up.
But at that moment, Qin Shi suddenly grabbed him and pressed him down on the chair, saying coldly, "Master of the Zhou Family, don't you know what it is?"
Hearing that, Zhou Tong's face turned cold for a moment, then he forced a smile and said, "Young man, what do you mean by that?
I don't understand. "
"Hmph, you are playing dumb."
Qin Shi yelled and slammed the table, "Where is Zhou Qin?
The Sect Elder asked me to bring her back. "
Blinking, Su Ming glanced at Qin Shi with a charming look.
Qin Shi, on the other hand, glared fiercely at him, signalling him not to make a sound.
In this situation, he had to show his unique strength, or else it would be troublesome if he was seen through.
"Zhou Qin?"
Zhou Tong's expression changed, and he said angrily, "Zhou Qin is a member of the Zhou Family. Even if she joins the Lihuo Sect, the Lihuo Sect should not have the right to interfere in the internal affairs of my family, right?
Besides, two White Level disciples are not enough to threaten the Zhou Family. "
"White Level?"
Hearing that, Qin Shi's eyes turned cold, and he took out his plate.
The plate appeared, and a purplish golden light shone in the main hall of the Zhou Family, "What about the Purple Level?"
"Hiss …" Zhou Tong sucked in a sharp, cold breath. Even Su Ming's face was filled with shock.
Su Ming did not know that Qin Shi had entered the forbidden land of death. His eyes widened, and he said in shock, "Purple Level, Purple Level?
Stone, what is going on? "
Qin Shi ignored Su Ming, and looked straight at Zhou Tong, "Master of the Zhou Family, can you hand her over now?"
"This …"
A Purple Level disciple of the Lihuo Sect was a great deterrent to the Zhou Family. Zhou Tong hesitated.
But at this moment, Zhou Yunpeng suddenly jumped into the main hall, and looked at Qin Shi with disdain, and said coldly, "Hmph, Qin Shi, stop pretending. How many days have you joined the Lihuo Sect?
And you already got a Purple Level Plate?
Besides, even if it is a Purple Level Plate, the Yunding Sect is not afraid of you! "
After saying that, Zhou Yunpeng lifted his robe.
Seeing the robe in Zhou Yunpeng's hands, Qin Shi's eyes turned cold.
The robe was embroidered with two misty clouds, and it was almost the same as the robes worn by Yun Lingzi and the other two. "Looks like Su Ming was right, Zhou Yunpeng really joined the Yunding Sect," he thought.
"Hehe, you didn't expect that I would join the Yunding Sect, did you?"
Speaking of the Yunding Sect, Zhou Yunpeng raised his head arrogantly, and said, "The Lihuo Sect has eyes but can't see, they don't know that I am a good steed. The Yunding Sect is the one who really knows how to use people."
"Hmm, indeed, a good steed."
Qin Shi pretended to be serious, and said, "But I don't know, if I ride it or not."
"Pfft!"
Su Ming saw Qin Shi's serious expression, but said something funny. He could not help but laugh, and said, "Young Master Zhou, I have a good saddle here, why don't I give it to you and try riding it?"
"You …"
Hearing this, Zhou Yunpeng was furious, and a wave of spiritual power surged out.
Qin Shi pursed his lips, and not to be outdone, he mobilized his spiritual power.
But at this time, Jade In The Book's voice sounded, "Stone, don't waste time here. Think of a way to leave first. I can feel that there is a very powerful person in the Zhou Family. If I'm not wrong, he is at least at the peak of the Spirit Sealing Realm."
Hearing this, Qin Shi was stunned, and with a bang, he dispersed Zhou Yunpeng's spiritual power.
"The peak of the Spirit Sealing Realm?" Qin Shi narrowed his eyes, and glanced at Zhou Tong.
Zhou Tong's strength was only at the late stage of the Spirit Sealing Realm, so it was obviously not him.
Realizing this, Qin Shi became nervous, and he stopped talking nonsense with Zhou Yunpeng. He faced Zhou Tong and said, "Master of the Zhou Family, are you determined to go against the Lihuo Sect?
If that's the case, then wait for our Elder to come and get him. "
With that, Qin Shi took Su Ming's hand, turned around, and left the Zhou Family.
Zhou Tong and Zhou Yunpeng didn't stop the two of them from leaving. They just ridiculed them a little.
After leaving the Zhou Family, Su Ming was confused, and asked, "Stone, why are you leaving?
Even if you ask them to release Lin Yu first?
Lin Yu is not a member of the Zhou Family, and they have no right to imprison him. "
