Chapter 249

Mr. Yin Yuan used this excuse to say this deliberately, but the essence was to cover up his qualities of being eager for justice, fighting injustice, and helping others without asking for anything in return!

In order to fear that they would be burdened, he was able to come up with such a lame excuse, which shows his chivalrous heart.

Suddenly, Yuan Buwei's image in his mind seemed to be highlighted, indescribably high-spirited and upright!

The admiration in his eyes almost overflowed, and anyone could understand the meaning.

System 999: ...No, no, no, you misunderstood. I have reason to suspect that the host is giving up a piece of ore now in order to obtain the entire spiritual mine in the future.

Along the way, we encountered several more waves of robberies and murders. Although they were all dressed up as gangsters, they were so fierce and fearless that they knew the truth was definitely not the case.

And the old housekeeper didn't hide anything and told Yuan Buwei all the truth——

It turned out that the old city lord of Yinhui City was seriously injured not long ago, and it seemed that he would not live long.

He has two sons and one daughter. The father of these siblings is the old city lord's favorite eldest son, but their biological mother is just a commoner.

Obviously, it's another scene where a nobleman falls in love with a commoner girl but is beaten by his family. It's the same routine. The difference is that the eldest young master was particularly stubborn. Because of opposition from his family, he left home and stayed with his sweetheart for more than ten years.

The father and son had a quarrel back then and had not seen each other for many years. Now the old city lord was probably about to die and his heart softened, so he wanted to take back his beloved eldest son again, so he sent this confidant The butler went.

Unexpectedly, this was probably an eyesore to some people, so they actually took action in advance. The couple was unprepared for a moment, and both of them died not long ago. Fortunately, the old housekeeper arrived not too late and was able to take the two children away.

A wealthy family? Inheritance dispute?

After learning the cause and effect, these two words popped into my head immediately. However, he didn't care. As long as he can have a reasonable identity to sneak into the Golden Spirit Clan and have access to those rare ores, he has plenty of ways to wipe out the entire Golden Spirit Clan.

Isn't this an opportunity that has come to your door now?

Chapter 205 Sword God 18

In the early morning, a thin and moist mist filled the sky and the earth. The Yinhui City shrouded in the mist was made of silver-glazed silver. Under the clear skylight, it glowed hazy and Soft silver glow.

Outside the city gate, two tall and strong purebred "dragon-elephant horses" with lion-like snow-white manes and as strong as elephants came in the moist morning mist, pulling behind them an ordinary-looking horse. Strange dark carriage.

An old man dressed in gray clothes and wearing a sarong on his head sat at the shaft of the carriage, acting as the driver.

The tall dragons, elephants and horses came galloping like the wind. The strong wind blew up the curtains of the carriage, vaguely revealing a snow-white dress and indistinct brows.

The carriage was running all the way, without any intention of stopping, and was about to rush directly into the city. The guard at the city gate was about to step forward to stop the carriage, but the old man who had been sitting quietly in front as the coachman raised his head. The guard who was still full of anger and tried to step forward to stop the carriage suddenly changed his face and became busy immediately. ‌Backed away to both sides.

"——What the hell! How could he be the steward of Tongshan? How could he have returned from outside the city?"

"Fortunately, I saw the opportunity quickly and almost offended the city lord's confidants!"

Several people secretly thought that they were unlucky. They each looked at each other, with a bit of gossip in mind, and couldn't help but whisper.

"...Is the rumor from the City Lord's Mansion true? The City Lord wanted to bring the eldest son back to inherit the family business, so he secretly sent a butler to pick him up?"

"No, right. This isn't something shameful, so why bother covering it up?"

"Hey! You're not guarding against that one..."

As residents who were born and raised in Yinhui City, they knew very well that not long after the eldest son ran away in anger, the young lady was also married to the outer city. The only son left under the city lord was the second son. To avoid making the same mistake again, I specially found a match for the second young master, and now the eldest grandson is over ten years old.

Everyone has already acquiesced that the second son is the future heir of Yinhui City. Unexpectedly, the old city lord began to miss his disobedient eldest son after his death. Who knows what he is thinking? Do you just want to see your son, or do you have plans to make him your heir?

Or, even if the old city lord originally only wanted to see his son, what if the eldest son, who had suffered many years of hardship outside, fell in love with the wealth of the city lord's mansion again, and the city lord became confused and softened, and gave birth to a child after seeing his son. What should I do if I have other thoughts?

——If the second young master thinks this way, he will definitely not be willing to let his eldest brother come back; and if the old city lord is worried that the second young master thinks this way, he will naturally have no choice but to pick him up quietly.

A group of guards were gossiping and chatting, while they couldn't help but secretly and maliciously speculate on the thoughts of the big shots. They thought it was just a boring pastime.

The situation in the City Lord's Mansion was not what I heard from the housekeeper. However, he had no intention of participating in this power struggle. He just wanted to use Yinhui City as a springboard to let himself own It’s just a suitable identity.

As for who will inherit Yinhui City, it will ultimately depend on the old city lord. If the other party is really dying, then the only candidate for the heir is the second son. Even if the grandchildren are really chosen, the son and daughter of the eldest son are still young, and the second son has two older and well-trained sons. No matter what, it will not be the turn of the two children who were found halfway.

The only chance for these two little ones who were brought back by Yuan Buwei is that the old city lord can survive and have a long life, and there is still enough time to select and test the heirs. If they can grow up quickly in the future, there is still hope.

Unfortunately, perhaps God does not favor them. When the carriage returned to the city lord's mansion unimpeded, the two little guys had just been led off the carriage by the butler, and faint crying had already come from the depths of the city lord's mansion.

The old housekeeper's face turned pale immediately, his body trembled, and he ran to the old city lord's residence.

The two children followed him in confusion.

When they arrived, they saw that the bedroom door was wide open, and the servants in the yard all looked sad. A middle-aged couple and two teenagers, one big and one small, were surrounding the bed. From the gap, an old and pale face could be seen, and there was still a little light in his eyes.

Probably because he saw the old housekeeper, the light suddenly lit up and fell directly on his face. It seemed that he had something to say urgently, but he couldn't make a sound.

The old housekeeper understood his thoughts at once: "Do you want to see the eldest son? The eldest son..." He really couldn't bear to tell the old city lord such bad news at the last moment of his life to stimulate him, so he had to pull the two children in front of him first, "Look, my lord, this is the young lady and the young master, the eldest son is behind..."

The old city lord on the bed looked directly at the two children, and probably figured out why the other son didn't show up, and his eyes suddenly showed sadness.

"Hehe..." He wanted to raise his hand to say something, but he couldn't move his body or speak. He gasped a few times in his throat, but his eyes became dimmer and dimmer.

The middle-aged man next to him hurriedly stepped forward to grab his arm that he was about to raise, and called softly: "Dad!"

"...Dad, don't worry, I know you are worried about the future of the two children, don't worry, your son will take good care of them, so that you will have no regrets when you return to Jiuyou."

Suddenly, there was another cry in the room.

Amid the crying, a layer of light iron-gray spread from the old man's skin, the color became darker and darker, and finally almost covered his mouth and nose, as if he was going to petrify him completely and let him die in pain.

His eyes were still fixed on his son, wondering if he still had concerns about this world.

The two children were still confused and didn't know the situation very well. They saw that the second uncle had already taken them to his side and cried loudly to the old man on the bed.

In the yard outside, Yuan Buwei walked over slowly and heard the grief-stricken howling.

"What a good smell! What a good smell..."

At this moment, Ye Miaomiao's voice sounded in his mind, with a bit of restless emotions. Just like a drunkard who was drunk, his tone was dizzy and he was too excited to extricate himself.

"Sword Master, I smell a very nice smell. I have a feeling that it must be a treasure that will be very useful to the sword..."

Hearing her hesitant words, Yuan Buwei also became curious, so he indulged: "Let's go and have a look." ~This~work~is~organized~uploaded~by~Think~Tu~online~reading~netizens~

Based on his understanding of Ye Miaomiao, the other party's three views were formed in the peaceful years. He would not actively hurt innocent people, nor would he cause any trouble.

As soon as the voice fell, a stream of light flew out impatiently.

In the bedroom, the second young master was holding his father's dying hand and crying, but it was thunder without rain.

"Dad, you can rest assured...ah!"

Suddenly, the crying stopped, and the second young master raised his head with his swollen forehead, uttering a distorted groan of pain, shocked and angry.

——Just at that moment, a black shadow suddenly jumped in from outside the door, brushed past his forehead, and flew directly towards the old man on the bed.

——It seemed to be a dark, hard brick? !

Someone actually dared to commit a crime in the city lord's mansion in broad daylight, and couldn't even wait for a moment, and had to kill a dying old man with his own hands? ? ?

The most important thing is that the thing only brushed past him and made his forehead swell up. If the target was aimed at his forehead, wouldn't he have died?

——What a cruel and bold madman!

The second son, who was covering his forehead, was shocked and angry, and immediately shouted loudly for someone to catch the assassin, but saw that the "assassin" had already walked in with a swagger, his posture was calm, and his expression was even more calm, as if he was strolling in his own home.

"Wait a minute, Second Young Master, this may be a misunderstanding."

As the confidant of the City Lord, the old butler still has a lot of say in the City Lord's Mansion. Although it seems that the old and the new are about to take over, the old butler's influence is still there. As soon as he spoke, the people who wanted to catch the assassin hesitated and stopped, a little hesitant.

The old butler looked at Yuan Buwei in astonishment: "Young Master Yinyuan, what are you doing?"

"Okay, it seems you are all in the same group!" The second son's angry voice interrupted the old housekeeper's words, "Housekeeper Tongshan, my father trusted you so much, but you actually betrayed the city lord's mansion. Has my elder brother, who I haven't seen for many years, been harmed by you?"

At this point, the second son's voice was already fierce.

As the city lord's confidant, the old housekeeper usually has a special status. Even the second son never ordered him around like this, but treated him like an uncle.

Now that the old city lord has not been buried yet, the second son has already put on the attitude of a master, asking him like a slave, and wrongly accusing him without even any evidence. He looks like a complete synonym for impulsiveness and brainlessness, but he is murderous, as if he wants to take the opportunity to sweep him away.

The old butler, who had rushed back from a long journey and was still injured, was filled with grief and anger. After a moment of silence, he finally couldn't help but speak: "Second Master, you should know who killed the eldest master!"

The atmosphere around him became extremely strange.

The second master was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect the old butler to be so blunt, and then he became furious. This anger was no longer as shallow as he pretended just now, but was actually tainted with murderous intent.

"What did you do?"
