Chapter 158 The Three-Year Agreement Collapses!
"Who did this?"

"Tell me the whole truth, everything!"

In the Gongye Mansion, the clan chief, Gongye Yunshan, exuded an imposing aura without anger, and looked at his two sons.

Gongye Peisheng looked at his younger brother.

Gongye Yangqiu's head was spinning, but fearing his father's tyranny, he dared not be negligent and hurriedly replied, "I don't know what those people are from. That person charged into the Black Rider Squad in the street and was captured and brought back to the camp. I didn't expect that he had a way to double his height, and he used some kind of spell to explode himself, generating tremendous power. The Black Rider Squad was completely wiped out!"

Gongye Yangqiu began to sob as he spoke, but not because of the deaths of the Black Riders, but because his hard-earned Black Riders had been wiped out in an instant, and his years of effort had come to naught. He was heartbroken!
Also.

Then there's the fear of facing a father whose authority has been built up over time.

after all--

The gate of the Gongye Mansion represents the face of the Gongye family, but it was because of him that it was blown up and sent flying into the sky!

He was afraid his father would beat him.

Therefore, they showed weakness in advance.

"A grown man!"

"Why cry!"

Gongye Yunshan grew increasingly disgusted.

aside.

Gongye Peisheng interjected, "Those people were probably targeting our Gongye family. Old Ninth just happened to run into them; it was an opportunity for them, a chance encounter."

He's trying to excuse his brother.

in fact.

Based on the existing information, it is impossible to tell whether that group of people came for the Gongye family or not.

In fact, he hadn't provoked Gongye Yangqiu at all. It was his good-for-nothing younger brother who was riding his horse recklessly in the street and almost killed a child. The child was rescued, but he became furious and thought that the other party was meddling in his business. He actually ordered the Black Rider squad to arrest the rescuer and bring him back to their camp.

That's too domineering.

That's ridiculous.

Ultimately, he not only brought trouble upon himself but also brought shame upon his family.

It comes down to it.

It seems like an accident.

Gongye Peisheng tended to believe it was an accident, but in order to lessen Gongye Yangqiu's guilt, he made some artistic embellishments and added some alarmist elements.

Gongye Yunshan has no right to speak without investigation, so he can only listen to Gongye Peisheng. Besides, "Digging a tunnel and blowing up the gate! It certainly wasn't because of this good-for-nothing son; it must have been premeditated!"

Gongye Yunshan subconsciously felt that Gongye Yangqiu was not worthy of provoking such a powerful force, let alone that group of people would send hundreds of assassins to retaliate.

That's not necessary.

They were most likely after the Gongye family.

Gongye Yunshan was resolute.

If Zuo Jing were here, he would definitely explain that he wasn't really targeting the Gongye family; he was simply taking his anger out on the Gongye family because of Gongye Yangqiu's domineering and disgusting behavior.

Unfortunately, he wasn't there.

Who goes there?!

Gongye Yunshan frowned and looked at Gongye Peisheng: "You've dealt with their people before, did you find out anything about them?"

Gongye Peisheng smiled wryly: "This group of people acts completely illogically—"

He gave an example—

"They wanted to cause trouble for our family, but they started with the ninth son, who was just a minor figure."

"They wanted to use Lao Jiu to deal with our family, but they wiped out the entire Black Rider squad by self-destructing, and even almost killed Lao Jiu."

"Afterwards, they used Lao Jiu to extort a ransom, but the ransom was only 1000 gold coins."

"After receiving the ransom, they actually released the person."

"After releasing the people, they blew up the gate."

Although Gongye Peisheng had concealed something, he genuinely couldn't understand what these people were trying to do.

Gongye Yunshan was also confused, but he was mostly puzzled by his two good sons' concealment of the truth. There were too many illogical points.

I just can't understand it.

It wasn't until his trusted lieutenant, whom he had personally dispatched, learned the whole story that Gongye Yunshan finally understood—

Snapped!
He raised his hand and slapped Gongye Yangqiu hard across the face.

Gongye Yangqiu was spun around three times after being beaten and fell to the ground. He raised his head in disbelief: "Father!"

Why did you hit him?

Gongye Yunshan said coldly, "You want to arrest someone just because they were riding a horse recklessly in the street and saved someone from under your iron hooves?"

He pointed at Gongye Yangqiu: "You are so domineering, I never knew it!"

"father!"

"not like this!"

Gongye Yangqiu still tried to argue his way out of it.

Gongye Peisheng also chimed in, "Father, the Ninth Prince still knows his limits—slap!"

Before his third son could finish speaking, Gongye Yunshan slapped him across the face, making Gongye Peisheng's cheek turn bright red.

"father!"

Gongye Peisheng immediately knelt down.

Gongye Yunshan coldly said, "You still have the nerve to speak!"

He said sternly, "Those people took the ransom, and now that they've sent him back, why are you still stopping him from leaving?!"

Gongye Peisheng quickly explained, "Those people are mysterious and ruthless. Once they start something, why would they stop for a mere 1000 gold coins? I just want to capture someone, pry open their mouth, and find out the details of that group!"

Bang!
Gongye Yunshan kicked Gongye Peisheng in the face, causing the third son to fall backward with a large shoe print on his face.

"father!"

Gongye Peisheng got up and quickly knelt down again.

Gongye Yunshan was furious: "Is that what I asked! Is that why I hit you! What I asked is, it's clear that you repeatedly provoked those people, why did you hide it from us!"

He was imposing even without anger, and even more so when he was angry, staring at his two sons: "If you dare not report what you know today, you will be guilty of patricide and mother-killing tomorrow!"

"Father, calm down!"

"Don't you dare!"

Gongye Peisheng and Gongye Yangqiu were nearly scared out of their wits.

Why did it have to come to this!

What nonsense are you spouting!

The two brothers secretly groaned, knowing that their father must have been upset outside today and was now taking it out on them!
Ugh!
no way!
They just happened to walk right into the line of fire!
Just accept your bad luck!
Here.

After hitting, kicking, and cursing, Gongye Yunshan finally felt much better. He then got back to the point: "You don't need to worry about this matter anymore. I will let the second brother handle it. You just need to explain this to your second brother in detail, without hiding anything. Go now, put yourself in solitary confinement for three months!"

"father!"

Gongye Peisheng's expression changed: "The annual Yunshan Auction will be held in three days. I want to bid for some medicinal herbs to refine a grade three pill called 'Crimson Flame Pill' in order to win the three-year agreement with Xia Wuhen of the Xia family and thus obtain the cultivation technique 'Eight Extremes Burning Technique' and the grade four cursed weapon 'Flame Dividing Wave Ruler'. This is crucial to whether I can be promoted to a grade three pharmacist and a grade four cursed spellcaster!"

Gongye Peisheng argued his case based on reason.

Three months is too long!
He seizes every minute.

The next period of time is extremely important for him.

"It's not that important!"

“If it were truly important, you would have prevented all the accidents from happening long ago and wouldn’t have let things develop to this extent.”

Gongye Yunshan showed no mercy: "Three months of confinement! This matter is irreversible and not open to further discussion!"

"father!!!"

Gongye Peisheng's face was ashen, as if he had lost his parents!
