Chapter 291
But at this moment, he didn't say anything, and directly led everyone to an inn in the central area of the city.
After renting two courtyards in the inn, everyone came to a luxury restaurant next to the inn.
There is no better place to scout news than a restaurant or brothel.
Naturally, you can't go to places like brothels with your female relatives, so restaurants are naturally the best choice.
There were so many people in Lu Fan's group, they didn't go to the private room on the second floor, but sat down at two tables in the lobby on the first floor.
At the moment, there were quite a few monks sitting in the hall on the first floor. After seeing Lu Fan and his party, they all looked at them curiously.
Of course, the eyes of these guys mainly fell on Hong Ye, Xiao Yue'er and Qi Ying.
After all, the three girls all have beautiful faces, and they have an inexplicable temperament when they have stepped into the Golden Core.
Any one of them can attract the attention of countless people, let alone three people gathered together.
Fortunately, these monks could also see that Lu Fan and his party were not easy to provoke, so they just watched with salivation, not daring to offend them in the slightest.
After Luo Tianyu snorted coldly, these guys immediately didn't dare to peek at Qi Ying and the others.
But soon these monks stopped paying attention to Lu Fan and others, but continued to chat about their own topics.
The tables of Lu Fan and the others were also full of wine and dishes, and the group of people tasted the dishes while listening to the topics of these guys.
Soon someone mentioned the news about the Qi family, which immediately attracted the attention of Lu Fan and others.
"The Qi family has not been peaceful recently. First, the elder of the Qi family rebelled and seized power, and then the elder of the Qi family and the couple of the head of the Qi family disappeared. It was really troublesome."
"I'm afraid this matter is not easy. Recently, there have been a lot of strong men with strange faces in the city. It's not easy to mess with at first glance."
……
"What is this? Didn't you see that the guards at the gate of the city and the guards patrolling the city have changed? They are much better than those before."
"That's right, the guards have indeed changed, and there are many more powerful people in the City Lord's Mansion. Could it be that the royal family took action?"
Although these monks in the hall on the first floor are not very strong, they know a lot of news.
Although a lot of the news is hearsay or rumors, there are also a lot of real news.
These guys are just chatting, but it is more useful news for Lu Fan and his party.
Gongsun Yang and Luo Tianyu who heard the news had extremely ugly faces, and there was a murderous intent flickering deep in their eyes.
Originally, they only thought that behind this incident was the collusion between the First Elder and the Third Prince.
But right now it seems that things are not that simple, and it is impossible for the third prince alone to do this.
Especially the actions of mobilizing imperial guards and a large number of strong men are not something that a third prince of the dynasty can do.
There is only one person who can do all this, and that is the current emperor.
Takehiro Minami!
As for Nan Wuhong's purpose in doing so, it is not difficult to guess, it is nothing more than wanting the entire Gongsun City.
After all, Gongsun City was one of the largest and most prosperous eighteen cities in the Nanwu Dynasty.
Among the eighteen most prosperous cities, there are only a few that are truly under the jurisdiction of the imperial family.
The rest of the bustling cities either belonged to the top ten aristocratic families or belonged to other superpowers within the dynasty.
If it is just a simple family, the royal family will naturally not be afraid.
But the top ten aristocratic families of the dynasty and several other super powers all advance and retreat together when facing the royal family.
Although there are constant battles between the top ten families and several other superpowers, even life and death.
But they all understand one truth, that is, the lips are dead and the teeth are cold.
If the royal family took action against any of them, the rest of them would definitely not end well.
So they can fight each other, but they must not unite with the royal family to deal with other people.
In other words, sit back and watch the tigers fight and let the royal family deal with any of them.
Because of this, the top ten aristocratic families and other forces can steadily occupy these extremely prosperous giant cities and earn resources wantonly.
And Nan Wuhong, as the head of the dynasty, naturally couldn't tolerate such a thing.
So in these years, Nan Wuhong has also tried every means to deal with the top ten families and other forces, and wants to completely control these giant cities in his own hands.
After all, the stronger the power of the top ten aristocratic families, the greater the threat to the royal family, which no emperor can tolerate.
Therefore, it is not surprising that Nan Wuhong has such an arrangement in Gongsun City.
However, this made Lu Fan a little interested in Nan Wuhong, the lord of the dynasty.
This Nan Wuhong probably also knew about the existence of Youming Pavilion and Corpse Yin Sect, and maybe he deliberately used the power of these two major forces to deal with the Gongsun family.
In this way, it is justifiable for him to control Gongsun City, and maybe he can use this to obtain the key of the Gongsun family's fairy palace.
If this is the case, then this Nan Wuhong's method is really extraordinary.
But to be able to sit on the position of the lord of the dynasty, it seems normal to have such means.
While Lu Fan and his party were listening to the discussion of these monks, a sneer full of disdain came from the door of the restaurant.
"Hehe... The Gongsun family is one of the top ten families of the Southern Martial Arts, but they were manipulated by others. They didn't even have the power to fight back. Nanwu cultivators are nothing more than that."
This disdainful sneer instantly attracted everyone's attention, and they all looked towards the door of the restaurant.
I saw a young man in a white robe and a folding fan standing impressively at the door.
The young man had a soft face, with undisguised sarcasm and disdain at the corners of his mouth, his brows were raised, as if he didn't take anyone seriously.
This guy's cultivation is not weak either, and he has reached the middle stage of Nascent Soul.
To be able to possess such cultivation at such an age is definitely a super genius.
And behind this guy was a white-haired old man in a gray robe, who was obviously at the peak of his out-of-body cultivation.
And it's not an ordinary out-of-body peak, only one step away from distraction, it can be regarded as an invincible out-of-body existence.
Obviously, this gray-robed old man is the guard of this feminine young man.
To have a strong man who is infinitely close to distraction as a guard, the identity of this feminine young man is certainly not simple.
Under everyone's gaze, the feminine young man walked in with the gray-robed old man.
And the monks in the hall also reacted at this moment, with anger on their faces.
Feminine young people belittle the Gongsun family, they don't care about it, and they don't bother to care about it.
But this guy's last sentence made the monks present unhappy.
After all, they are all monks of the Nanwu Dynasty. How could they not be angry when the feminine young man belittled everyone in one sentence.
When even a fiery-tempered monk at the peak of Jindan stood up, looked at the feminine young man with a bad expression and snorted coldly:
"Your Excellency dares to be so arrogant when you come to our Nanwu territory. I really think that our Nanwu..."
Before the hot-tempered cultivator at the peak of Jindan could finish his sentence, the feminine young man smiled disdainfully.
Then, using the folding fan in his hand as a sword, he slashed out a ray of spiritual power sword light at this Jindan peak cultivator...
