Chapter 363 Someone Is Ungrateful

The Shen family mansion was shrouded in an invisible haze, and the air was filled with a murderous atmosphere.

Everyone in the mansion was unconsciously uneasy.

Aunt Wang and eldest sister Shen Fang sat side by side in the hall, and there was a smart maid standing beside them. The three of them looked at the lonely figure outside the door from time to time.

At this time, Shen Er sat on the threshold like a farmer.

He held a dry pipe tightly in his hand, puffing on the welding smoke, and the movement seemed particularly harsh, revealing a sense of irritability.

After a while, the door of the mansion opened.

Accompanied by a burst of hurried footsteps, Shen Xiaoshan, Tian Xiaohu and Zhang Shuyuan rushed in quickly.

After that, they turned around almost at the same time and closed the door tightly, and their movements were extremely fast.

With a "click", the door bolt fell.

Shen Xiaoshan and Tian Xiaohu and others were relieved just now.

Shen Er stood up suddenly, with his pipe still hanging from his lips, and ran over in a hurry, staring at the two and saying, "What's the situation?"

Tian Xiaohu's face was so gloomy that water could drip out. He whispered, "The city gate... was secretly cleared, and our people can't get out at all. That Zhou guy, I don't know when he gathered a large number of people, the situation... is not optimistic."

Shen Xiaoshan chimed in, "People outside are saying that Brother Qingzi is dead."

"No, Qingzi has come all the way here, he won't die so easily." Shen Er denied it.

Zhang Shuyuan said, "We definitely believe that the boss will not die, but people outside don't believe it. Now the problem is here. Many people have turned to betray us."

Shen Er heard this, his face became more and more ugly, and he became silent.

Before leaving, Shen Qingyou told them to evacuate early.

They were also prepared to evacuate, but they didn't expect that these people were faster than them.

In a short time after Shen Qing left, they started to act, causing a huge change in the situation in the city. They could not cope with it at all, and they could not leave even if they wanted to.

Their situation suddenly took a sharp turn for the worse.

Seeing this, Tian Xiaohu hurriedly comforted them: "But don't worry, I have asked Xiao Zhi to hurry up and contact Chen Guang and Ji Youwu. They are all from the Weiwu Division. The boss has a favor to them. With them, we should be able to win a glimmer of hope for us."

"Yeah."

Shen Er was originally an ordinary hunter, and his roots were old. Facing this situation, he had no way to do it, and he could only hope for others.

Zhang Shuyuan persuaded: "We must keep calm at this time. If we can keep calm, we may still have some chances. After all, there is no definite news about the life and death of the master. We can use this as a starting point to persuade them not to act rashly."

"It's hard to say. Looking at the appearance of those people, I'm afraid it won't end well today."

Time passed little by little.

Gradually, footsteps came from outside the door, and the door of the Shen family mansion was knocked.

Tian Xiaohu and the others were shocked.

"It's me!"

"Xiao Zhi?!"

Tian Xiaohu lifted the bolt, opened a crack in the door, and looked out.

In addition to Xiao Zhi, there were only a few people at the door, such as Chen Guang and Ji Youwu.

He was surprised and asked, "Where are the others?"

"They all said that they were busy with government affairs and this was not their business, so they didn't want to come." Xiao Zhi sighed.

Tian Xiaohu understood that this was just what those people said.

They saw that Shen Qing was in danger, so they didn't want to wade into this muddy water and wanted to protect themselves.

At this moment, Tian Xiaohu really understood what it meant to leave people and leave tea cold.

"Come in first!"

Xiao Zhi and the others nodded one by one, and stepped into the mansion with heavy steps.

Tian Xiaohu raised his hand and embedded the heavy bolt into the threshold again, making a "clang" sound, and the door was locked tightly.

"Everyone." Xiao Zhi took two steps, stopped and said to Tian Xiaohu and others in a deep voice: "Just now I heard some news, our situation may be even more troublesome." "What's the matter?" Everyone gathered around at the same time, their eyes full of anxiety and uneasiness.

"I heard that Zhou Su not only gathered a large group of people, but also secretly invited a martial artist in the Xiantian realm to help."

"What?!" Tian Xiaohu and everyone exclaimed almost in unison, with disbelief and fear in their voices. Their hearts seemed to be suddenly grasped by an invisible hand and fell into the abyss.

Xiao Zhi's words were like ice, freezing the atmosphere in the room in an instant.

The scene became so cold that you could hear a pin drop.

In the eyes of these people, the Xiantian realm martial artist is like a supreme master, with unfathomable strength, and can overturn life and death with a wave of his hand.

Facing such an existence, they are like ants trying to shake a tree, small and powerless.

"Let's go in first." Zhang Shuyuan didn't know much about martial arts, but he could see from everyone's eyes that something was not going well, and his wrinkled face became even more worried.

Everyone gathered in the lobby without saying much.

They unconsciously increased the strength of their hands, tightly grasping the handles of the swords on their waists, and their knuckles turned white due to the force.

And the aunt and other people who were closely related to Shen Qing had tense faces, as if they were standing at the crossroads of fate, with no way forward and no way back.

For a while, the lobby fell into a dead silence, and the heavy atmosphere was like an invisible boulder, oppressing everyone's nerves and suffocating people.

Only the occasional sound of the wind outside the window allowed everyone's spirit to get a little respite.

"Those people we are facing are very strong." Tian Xiaohu swallowed hard, his voice hoarse: "But no matter what, we can't just sit there and wait for death."

"Yes, even if we die, we have to take someone with us."

At this extremely tense moment, there was a sudden movement in the yard, like footsteps, and someone suddenly appeared.

"What's going on?"

Everyone's nerves were instantly tense to the limit, and the weapons in their hands were almost unsheathed.

Ji Youwu and Chen Guang, who were standing at the outside, looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Let's go and take a look."

Swish.

The two of them drew their sabers at the same time and walked carefully towards the yard.

When they walked into the yard and saw the figure, they stood there in a daze.

Tian Xiaohu and others behind them saw that they were so abnormal, thinking that they had encountered a great danger, and rushed over to help.

However, when they saw the figure in the yard, they were also unbelievable, their eyes widened, full of shock.

This person was none other than Shen Qing himself who had rushed over from Kyoto.

Shen Qing looked at Tian Xiaohu and others who were dumbfounded, and asked strangely: "Why are you all looking at me like this?"

Shen Xiaoshan swallowed his saliva and blurted out: "Brother Qingzi, they all said you were dead!"

"Not dead, still alive and well." Shen Qing put his hands behind his back and walked towards the hall. He glanced at Zhang Shuyuan and ordered: "It's time for dinner, let's have a banquet!"

Zhang Shuyuan was a little puzzled.

Shen Qing smiled and said: "I've heard that there will be many people coming to welcome me later, so we have to entertain them!"

"Yes, yes, I'll ask the servants to prepare it now."

Zhang Shuyuan said hurriedly, running towards the back kitchen without stopping.

However, as soon as he left, there were bursts of footsteps and banging sounds at the gate of the mansion.

Bang bang bang!

"Alas..." Shen Qing said helplessly: "It seems that someone doesn't know how to show respect and doesn't want to eat this meal."

Boom!

The door suddenly broke into pieces under a huge force...
