Chapter 572 Heart of Black Flame
So Wang Qichuan tentatively summoned Jiang You again.
The result was the same, the crow came back, but there was no reply.
No rejection, no acceptance.
The head of the Zhang family is anxious to ask about the progress of the matter. After all, the Li family's actions against the Zhang family have made him feel like he is having trouble. Many people from the Zhang family have been replaced in unimportant positions within the base for various reasons...
If they don't think of a way, the Zhang family will really be pinned to the ground.
But there was no reply from Jiang You, and Wang Qichuan was helpless.
It was impossible for him to risk the Wang family to help the Zhang family.
The head of the Zhang family murmured, "No rejection, no acceptance, no reply. What does she mean?"
Wang Qichuan shook his head, "I don't know either. Jiang You cannot be inferred based on common sense."
"Tell me, is it possible that she doesn't like your conditions?"
The head of the Zhang family suddenly had a flash of inspiration.
"You once said that Jiang You, a little girl, has nothing but greed. As long as she has enough benefits, she will dare to rush to death.
So she doesn't reply to us now, and she doesn't reject us. Is she waiting for us to offer a higher price? "
The words of the head of the Zhang family gave Wang Qichuan some ideas, but when he thought about it again, he felt something was wrong.
"The terms I offered are already very generous. As long as she helps us check and balance the Li family, she can share in the Wang family's wealth!
Lao Zhang, in order to help you, I even joined the Wang family. "
Wang Qichuan looked at him, "Do you think the conditions I offered are too low?"
Hearing this, even the head of the Zhang family was stunned for a moment, and then said, "This is already very high..."
Then he thanked me with tears of gratitude.
He didn't expect that Wang Qichuan offered this condition.
Share the wealth of the Wang family!
The wealth of the Wang family is not just crystal nuclei, but countless treasures of heaven and earth, precious medicinal materials...
Not to mention getting half of these things, even if you only get one ten thousandth, you can skyrocket!
If he is still not tempted by such generous conditions, then he doesn't know how to increase his chips.
Wang Qichuan suddenly thought of something and said, "Compared to Jiang You, we actually have another closer alliance partner."
"Who?"
"Tower of Dawn."
…………
Top of Dawn Tower.
In the dim tower, the high priest wearing a silver mask sat in the darkness.
The eyes behind the cold mask stared calmly at the person below, unable to tell what his emotions were.
Suzaku's small figure stood silently in the shadows behind him.
There was also a voluptuous woman kneeling on the ground.
"Ajiu, after half a month in the water prison, have you thought clearly?"
"I've thought about it clearly. I know my mistake. Thank you to the high priest for not killing me!"
"I heard that a Tingfeng City recently appeared on the other side of Shiwanda Mountain and caused a lot of commotion." The high priest changed the subject and suddenly asked.
The woman prostrated on the ground respectfully, cold sweat broke out on her forehead, but she did not dare to look up.
"Report to the high priest, according to rumors, the city lord of Tingfeng City is a person named Jiang You. This woman made a big fuss in City No. 9 some time ago and caused a lot of losses to City No. 9.
There seems to be a deep grudge between her and No. 9 City. The White Dragon Base, which had been wiped out before, had also wanted her.
At that time, the Hope Base also asked us to jointly issue a wanted order, but no one was arrested.
Now, City No. 9 has issued the latest order. Anyone who associates with Tingfeng City is an enemy of City No. 9! "
The woman took out a notice from her arms and presented it to Suzaku.
"High Priest, this is the notice that City Nine has just delivered to Dawn Tower."
Suzaku slowly walked out of the shadow behind the high priest. His thin body seemed a bit incongruous with the lifelike Suzaku head mask.
She took the notice from the woman's hand, looked at her deeply, and handed it to the high priest.
But the high priest only glanced at it briefly and asked Suzaku to burn it.
"How long has our Lord Wu been out?" the high priest asked.
Suzaku, "It's been more than three months."
The high priest nodded, "Lord Wu must have been fascinated by the colorful world outside and couldn't find his way home."
"Ajiu, you secretly released Gu Mingshi who was imprisoned in the dark room. It should have been a death penalty.
But since you have worked hard for so many years without any merit, and since your brother has already been punished for you, I will give you a chance to make meritorious deeds. "
Tears shone in the woman's eyes, she buried her head lower, and spoke quickly with a trembling voice.
"My subordinates will definitely live up to their orders!"
"You go to Longshan Mountain and deliver a gift to me."
It would also be a good reminder to Mr. Wu, don’t forget the way back.
The high priest didn't say the rest of the sentence.
In the entire Dawn Tower, only the high priest, Suzaku, Master Qi and Master Lu knew that Jiang You and the black-faced Master Wu in the tower were the same person.
Hearing that the high priest suddenly wanted to give a gift to the Lord of Tingfeng City, although the woman was a little puzzled, she didn't ask anything else.
Wait for the woman to leave.
Suzaku hesitated and asked, "High Priest, what did you get from the Secret Pavilion in September?"
The September she mentioned was the woman just now.
The Lord of Nine Towers in Dawn Tower is not one person, but a pair of twin brothers and sisters.
Just half a month ago, my sister used her authority to enter the secret pavilion during the high priest's retreat in September to let go of Gu Mingshi and other elders of the Gu family.
He also stole a lot of medicinal materials and took them away with him.
The high priest was about to kill her, but the elder brother immediately took three hundred lashes on his own, hoping that the high priest could spare his sister.
One of the punishments in the Tower of Dawn is the Scorpion Tail Whip.
The entire whip is as thick as an adult's wrist, and is covered with hooks. A whip can break the bones and tear off a large piece of flesh at the same time.
An ordinary survivor can withstand up to ten lashes before his bones are broken and he vomits blood and dies.
A person with superpowers can't take more than fifty lashes. Lord Jiu Lou received 300 lashes on his own, intending to pay for it with his life.
That day, the high priest stood calmly on the city wall, looking at Lord Jiulou who was kneeling naked on the ground on the central execution platform.
In September, he was also forced to watch the execution.
She was tied up all over and watched in despair as her twin brother was punished with one whip after another. His figure gradually became stooped and mutilated, until the sun set and only a puddle of rotten flesh remained in his form.
According to the rules of the Dawn Tower, since you have received three hundred lashes, you must continue to lash the person even after death until the number is reached.
The whip struck the corpse repeatedly like a mallet, causing blood and bones to fly everywhere, and the entire execution platform was filled with rotten flesh.
Jiuyue fainted immediately, but the high priest directly ordered her to be imprisoned in a water prison and was released after half a month.
She didn't even have a chance to collect her brother's body.
The high priest seemed to not really care about her letting go of the Gu family, and let her continue to sit in the position of the leader of Jiulou.
"Heart of Black Flame, she stole the Heart of Black Flame and gave it to Gu Mingshi."
