"Big Brother Zhaoyang is still alive and healthy. He asked me to find you."
Zhang Xing said with a smile.
"Really?
That's great! "
The girl looked at her brother and the others excitedly.
The conversation between the two fell into the ears of Li Jiu and the three elders.
They were shocked.
The ancestor of the Dongfang family was still alive. This was not good news.
The Li family was afraid of Dongfang Zhaoyang. When Dongfang Zhaoyang was 50 years old, he was already invincible in the Li family.
At that time, he was seriously injured and was being chased by assassins from a fifth-tier empire.
Now, the old man was 160 years old. Wouldn't his cultivation be a hundred or a thousand times more powerful?
Thinking of this made them feel cold.
But what was more terrifying was that Dongfang Zhaoyang was the crown prince of the Shuangfu Nation.
Although he was no longer the crown prince, he was still a member of the royal family.
The Shuangfu Nation was ranked in the top three among the fifth-tier empires.
If the old man really came back and learned of the situation, he would definitely seek revenge from the current emperor.
Then, in order to appease the old man, the emperor would definitely push them out as scapegoats.
There was no doubt about that. What should they do?
The young man in front of them was definitely the successor of the old man and must have a treasure on him. Otherwise, the two elders wouldn't have died like that.
They might as well go all the way and kill them all.
Anyway, Dongfang Zhaoyang couldn't find any descendants after more than 100 years.
He didn't have many years left to live. After he died, they wouldn't have to worry anymore.
Thinking of this, the three of them exchanged glances and nodded knowingly.
"Since we can't figure out this kid, we can only sneak attack. Now, we'll pretend to lower our heads and attack when he's unprepared. We'll try to kill him in one strike!"
The three of them agreed and came up with a sneak attack plan.
"So this little brother is the successor of Senior Zhaoyang. Sorry for the disrespect!"
"I think there's a misunderstanding between us. As the saying goes, it's better to make enemies than to resolve them."
"Fortunately, you didn't suffer any losses. Two of our elders died in Wangxiang City, and the young master's arm was also broken. Why don't we just let it go?"
An elder cupped his fists and said.
"Yes, I admit that we were in the wrong first. I'll apologize to you here!"
The second elder took a step forward and bowed as he spoke.
The third elder took out a storage ring from his bosom. "I have some crystal stones here. Although it's not much, there are still twenty thousand pieces. Take it as compensation."
With a sincere expression on his face, he respectfully raised the ring with both hands and handed it over to Zhang Xing.
The three of them formed a triangular formation, with two in the front and one in the back.
As long as Zhang Xing stretched out his hand to catch it, it would be the beginning of the sneak attack.
The three of them were all old foxes who had roamed the Jianghu. At this moment, there was no trace of abnormality in their expressions.
If it was anyone else, they would think that they were afraid of Dongfang Zhaoyang and quickly took out gifts to express their goodwill.
But Zhang Xing didn't think so. Even if they were afraid of Brother Zhao Yang, they wouldn't go so far as to take out crystals as compensation after losing three elders and a pair of arms.
This compensation was a little strange and a little excessive.
Don't forget that their surname is Li, a royal family, not a family of cats and dogs.
However, Zhang Xing still intended to accept the gift. It would be a waste not to take it.
"Since you guys are so tactful, then I won't be polite."
Zhang Xing relaxed and stretched out his hand to accept it.
However, just as Zhang Xing's hand touched the storage ring, a voice rang out.
Boom!
The storage ring exploded, and a cloud of smoke instantly enveloped Zhang Xing.
The woman and the other ten people were stunned by this sudden turn of events.
Just as they were stunned and at a loss, the three elders had already launched a crazy attack.
