"Grandmother, don't listen to his nonsense, if it weren't for Lu Baichuan to invite him here, why would he come to my Zhang family at this time!"
The old woman hadn't spoken yet, the fat martial artist who had been imprisoned by Yang Kai before suddenly shouted.
Yang Kai smiled bitterly.
The old woman stared at the fat martial artist fiercely, and said sharply: "The old lady does things, do I need you to tell me?"
The fat martial artist was shocked, and even said he didn't dare.
Only then did the old woman cast her gaze on Yang Kai again, scanning with her Spiritual Mind, and after realizing that Yang Kai’s cultivation level was much higher than hers, her face changed slightly and said, "Your Excellency, if it is really Lu Baichuan, I’m afraid you won't speak nonsense with me here. Okay, I believe you, but I don’t know why your Excellency came to my Zhang family?"
"I'm here because i was entrusted by others, please see this old lady." Yang Kai threw a space ring at the old woman as he spoke.
The old woman stretched out her hand to catch it, and took a deep look at Yang Kai before pouring Spiritual Mind into the space ring.
The next moment, the old woman's face turned pale, and her body shook suddenly, as if she had suffered a heavy injury, she opened her mouth and spit out a blood, and her old face suddenly became even older.
"How dare you make a sneak attack?" The Fat martial artist shouted furiously.
No wonder he had such a misunderstanding. After all, the old woman suddenly had this change after catching the space ring. Anyone would think that Yang Kai had moved something on the space ring and attacked the old woman.
Some of the remaining women also looked fierce, and looked at Yang Kai with indignation. The strength of an individual was fluctuating. The more impatient had already sacrificed their own Artifact, and immediately started to attack Yang Kai.
Facing such a group of women's army, Yang Kai couldn't help feeling a little numb in his scalp, stepped a little, floated and retreated, and distanced himself from them.
"Stop it!" The old woman suddenly shouted.
These women were also very obedient. Although they were irritated by Yang Kai's behavior and deeds, after the old woman's order, none of them made another move.
"Grandma, how are you. Are you ok?" This time. The young girl who had been supporting the old woman asked with a worried look, and stretched out her hand to stroke the old woman's back.
The old woman shook her head, raised her eyes, and looked at Yang Kai with no hostility. It is full of sorrow, and said: "Dare to ask little brother. This space ring...Who did you get it from?"
Yang Kai's mouth squirmed, and the sound was transmitted into the old woman's ears.
As soon as the old woman listened, she staggered again. Soon there was a wry smile: "Fate! Although the old lady had expected it, but I didn't expect it to be true."
"Mother, what happened?" a middle-aged beautiful woman with a 1st-order Void King Realm cultivation level asked.
"Look at this." The old woman handed the space ring in her hand to the middle-aged beautiful woman.
The middle-aged beautiful woman took it, and after taking a closer look, her pretty face suddenly turned pale, and when she was exploring the inner space with Spiritual Mind, tears suddenly flowed down her eyes.
As Zhang Gaoxuan's family, she naturally recognizes those things in the space ring. Now Zhang Gaoxuan's space ring is here, but he was not seen here. Anyone can guess what happened.
When Yang Kai watched this scene, he couldn't help feeling a little bit emotional, but he didn't speak. He just stood there quietly waiting for the Zhang family to digest the news that Zhang Gaoxuan had been killed.
Although other people don't know the specific inside story, seeing the old woman and the middle-aged beautiful woman look like this, naturally they also have speculation in their hearts, and their expressions become sad.
After a long time, the old woman took a deep breath and looked at Yang Kai and said: "The distinguished guest is here, the old lady is rude, please come inside for a while."
"Alright, I still have something for you." Yang Kai nodded.
At the moment, under the leadership of the old woman and the middle-aged beautiful woman, Yang Kai came to a hall of this manor.
At this moment, everyone else was waiting outside, only the old woman, the middle-aged beautiful woman, and the young girl entered inside. The young girl seemed to be dedicated to serving the old woman, so she could not leave, she was standing behind the old woman with a pair of beautiful eyes. Looking at Yang Kai.
After ordering people to serve tea, the old woman said: "Little brother, I had a misunderstanding before, I hope that the little brother can see the situation on my Zhang family. Please don't be offended."
"It's okay, the old lady, please also change your grief." Yang Kai nodded.
"You just said that there is something to be handed over to us, I don't know what it is?" the old woman asked.
"This." Yang Kai took out another jade slip, handed it to the old woman, and said: "Before the death of Patriarch Zhang, he left some information internally with Spiritual Mind. The old lady will knew it after reading it."
The old woman thanked him and take it, released her Spiritual Mind to investigate, and after a while, she passed it to the middle-aged beautiful woman in a calm manner.
After investigating, the middle-aged beautiful woman gritted her teeth and said: "Sure enough, it is really the old thief Lu Baichuan's murderous hand against my husband! My mother, I am going to avenge my husband!"
Hearing what she said, Yang Kai knew that this middle-aged beautiful woman was Zhang Gaoxuan's wife, and it seemed that this old woman was Zhang Gaoxuan's mother.
How sad would it be, white-haired people sending black-haired people away, but this old woman can adjust in a short time, so Yang Kai can't help but admire a little.
"Of cource, this debt have to be reported. But do you have this ability?" The old woman gave the middle-aged beautiful woman a cold look.
"The daughter-in-law is indeed not the opponent of the old thief, but even if she is dead, she must gnaw off a piece of blood of the old thief!" The middle-aged beautiful woman gritted her teeth, her beautiful eyes full of hatred.
"You're beautiful." The old woman sneered, "I'm afraid you won't die even if you want to, and you will only be humiliated!"
As soon as this remark came out, the middle-aged beautiful woman couldn't help but turn pale.
"Don't you sit back for me yet!" The old woman slammed her crutches severely and shouted with majesty.
The middle-aged beautiful woman didn't dare to disobey, fell back into her seat feebly, her eyes seemed to lose a trace of glamour.
When Yang Kai saw this, he sighed: "Old lady, dare to ask, apart from Brother Zhang's misfortune in the Five Colors Treasure Tower, is there anything else?"
When the old woman heard the words, her face was dark, and she nodded and said: "Let the little brother see it, the family is unfortunate."
After a moment of silence, the old woman narrated what had happened to the family in the recent period.
In this area of Maplewoods City, the Zhang family and the Lu family have always had a good friendship, because the ancestors of the two families came to Maplewoods City together and worked hard together. They have been passed down for hundreds of years, and they can be regarded as generations of friendship.
This time the Five Colors Treasure Tower opened, and the two families patriach, Zhang Gaoxuan and Lu Baichuan entered it together.
And just after the opening of the Five Colors Treasure Tower, the juniors of the two families met to go to one place to practice.
They never thought that all of this turned out to be the conspiracy of the Lu family.
In that dangerous place, the heirs of the Zhang family were killed and wounded, but everyone in the Lu family returned safely. This created the situation of leaving only the Woman of the Zhang Family here today. The two fat and thin male martial artist were also spared due to they being in retreat, otherwise, all the male of the Zhang Family will be gone.
After the Five Colors Treasure Tower was closed, only Lu Baichuan returned, and Zhang Gaoxuan was nowhere to be seen.
Lu Baichuan also changed his previous attitude. After returning, he frequently tried to pressure the Zhang family, hoping to let one of his sons marry Zhang Ruoxi, a girl of the Zhang family's younger generation.
The Patriarch of the Zhang family suddenly disappeared, and everyone in the family was worried. How could they agree to such a request at this time? What's more, the old woman herself also had doubts about the Lu Family, and felt that the previous experience was very problematic, so she immediately refused.
How could she not know that Lu Baichuan had directly torn his face, and wanted to take away Zhang Ruoxi forcibly, and even fought against Zhang's family.
Lu Baichuan, like Zhang Gaoxuan, is a 3rd-order Void King Realm martial artist. The Zhang family is now a lonely widow, how could it be his opponent, if it weren’t for the old woman to take advantage of the family secret techniques, take some forbidden drugs to improve her strength, and cooperate with the remaining family to temporarily repelled Lu Baichuan, I'm afraid there is no Zhang Family anymore.
Now that she got the jade slips brought back by Yang Kai, which contained the message left by Zhang Gaoxuan before his death, the old woman knew that the death of her son was indeed under the murderous hand of Lu Baichuan.
All the previous doubts were also suddenly understood.
The sadness and hatred in the heart of the old woman can be imagined.
Yang Kai listened and was silent for a while.
He thought to himself that this should be the usual method for one family to annex another family. There are very few males in the family. How can it be passed on? Just take the opportunity to get married, and the Zhang family will be slowly annexed by the Lu family in the future. From then on, there will be no Zhang family in Maplewoods City.
However, there are some doubts in his mind.
As the saying goes, the two families of Zhang and Lu have been together for hundreds of years. How did they suddenly change their faces in this generation? He didn't know if anything else was involved in this, and he didn't have the mind to ask more.
"Old lady, since you have read the information in the jade slip, you should already know the agreement between Patriarch Zhang and Me." Yang Kai suddenly said.
The old woman nodded: "Gaoxuan has said very clearly in the jade slip, saying that as long as the little brother still lives in Maplewoods City, he can agree to my Zhang Family three requests and... After Principle Source Fruit is successfully refined into Spirit Pill, he will give one Principle Source Pill to my Zhang Family!"
"Principle Source Fruit?" The middle-aged beautiful woman was shocked when she heard the words, and said suspiciously: "My husband, did he get the Principle Source Fruit?"
"Indeed." Yang Kai nodded, and didn't mean to hide it, "Patriarch Zhang did get a Principle Source Fruit in the Five Colors Treasure Tower. Now it is in my hands. This is also one of the agreements between Patriarch Zhang and Me."
The old woman glanced at the middle-aged beautiful woman and snorted coldly: "Everyone is Innocent but still suffer. My Zhang family now has no ability to protect such treasures as the Principle Source Fruit, not to mention that it is now regarded as the thing of this little brother."
The middle-aged beautiful woman looked shocked, and said solemnly: "I understand the Mother's teaching."
The old woman turned her head and looked at Yang Kai and said, "You can rest assured, little brother. Only the four of us in this world know about this Principle Source Fruit, and no one else will know about it. This old lady is grateful that little brother is able to fulfill the agreement to come to my Zhang Family, I also admire your character and credibility, my little brother, I will never cause you any trouble."
