Starting as a God-Emperor by Intercepting Destiny

Chapter 102 The owner of Xianyin Pavilion, and Zhao Jing's Tang Clan (Three chapters today, please subscribe)

"Greetings, Mr. Warm Wine!"

"How are you, sir?"

Luo Xianyin is the top courtesan, usually unassuming and aloof, and is the cold goddess in the hearts of the young heroes.

Upon hearing Mr. Wenjiu's words, she hurriedly stood up and bowed.

"No need for such formalities, Fairy Melody."

"I only came to ask for a cup of wine, but I didn't expect to hear such profound insights. It's truly delightful!"

Soon, a refined-looking middle-aged scholar appeared at the entrance of Qingxian Residence.

He exudes a mature and composed charm, which makes him appear even more dashing and debonair.

The only problem was that he had a gourd of wine wrapped around his waist and reeked of alcohol.

As soon as Mr. Wenjiu arrived at the door, the guards quickly opened it, and Luo Xianyin hurriedly said, "This humble servant will pour you wine, sir."

Soon, Mr. Wenjiu arrived at the private room and drank the wine that Luo Xianyin had poured in one gulp.

"Excellent wine!"

"Every generation of celestial music is so outstanding; I wonder which young hero will win the heart of this beauty."

"I am very envious."

Luo Xianyin quickly said, "Mr. Wenjiu, please don't make fun of me!"

"No matter when you come, I will have fine wine ready."

The man who warmed the wine did not know his name; some said his surname was Luo and his given name was Wen.

But he neither admitted nor denied it.

He simply took charge of the Immortal Music Workshop under the guise of warming wine, and has been doing so for forty years.

Wenjiu's appearance doesn't reveal his age, but he has never been involved with any women.

In this place of pleasure and debauchery, he was more like a virtuous gentleman than anyone else.

Rather, it's more accurate to say that he rejected all the women from the Fairy Music Pavilion who offered themselves to him, choosing instead to spend his time drinking.

Some say he was heartbroken and chose to exile himself.

Some say that one should devote oneself to Taoism and abstain from women.

But in any case, he is the apparent owner of Xianyinfang, and a major reason why this business can continue.

Upon his arrival, even Hua Feifei and Hua Weimian had to rush to the private room to express their gratitude, saying, "Greetings, Mr. Wenjiu!"

"This incident—"

"Don't mention it, don't mention it!"

Mr. Wenjiu interrupted the two men's conversation and said meaningfully, "Xianyinfang is here to entertain all distinguished guests."

"I have no idea why you have come or what you want to do."

"You simply paid money to rent Qingxian Residence, and I ordered Miss Xianyin to entertain you; that's all."

Although Mr. Wenjiu had a past relationship with Yuwen Yi, it would be too risky for him to side with the imperial court now.

So the Luo family helped, but not completely.

Hua Weimian bowed and said, "We understand, and we will certainly not make things difficult for Xianyin Pavilion."

Wen Jiujian, seeing that Hua Weimian had temporarily abandoned his efforts to win over the Luo family, turned to Pan Hongxiao and asked, "Madam Pan, would you like a drink?"

Pan Hongxiao frankly stated, "What's wrong with three cups?"

"good!"

He laughed heartily while warming the wine, waved for Xianyin to pour more, and then the two of them drank three cups of wine together.

After the drinks were finished, the wine warmer said, "If Madam Pan feels wronged and wishes to stay at Xianyin Pavilion, she can speak to Xianyin."

"I'd like to do you a small favor."

Hua Weimian's tone turned cold: "Mr. Warm Wine!"

She was being polite just now because the other party was a local bigwig, the host, and had some connection with Yuwen Yi.

However, Pan Hongxiao has been identified as Yuwen Yi's plaything.

Although Hua Weimian was indifferent to this, she could not allow others to take away the Yuwen family's things.

Wen Jiu smiled faintly: "I can't help others achieve their goals, but I can ruin them."

"Lady Hua, there's no need for warnings. I always keep my word."

"It all depends on Madam Pan's attitude."

Pan Hongxiao shook her head: "Thank you for your kindness, sir."

"I still have many things to accomplish."

Whether it's seeking revenge, rescuing her husband, reuniting with her family, or dealing with Shen Changsheng's grudge.

Yuwen Yi still doesn't understand.

Since Shen Changsheng died to save the Lin family, there is no turning back.

A person can be bad, but they should never be base.

If Pan Hongxiao were truly despicable, she would have barked like a dog in front of Du Zangfeng back then.

From the moment Yuwen Yi used Pan Hongxiao to kill Shen Changsheng, his plan was flawed.

Wenjiu smiled upon hearing this: "It seems I misspoke. I'll punish myself with three cups."

The wine connoisseur poured himself a drink and downed it in one gulp.

It seemed he came here solely to drink.

After finishing his wine, Mr. Wenjiu took out a jade pendant and handed it to Pan Hongxiao.

"What is this, sir?"

Wen Jiu said casually, "I hope that in the future, I'll have the opportunity to hear Madam Pan talk about heroes again, so I can save the money for the snacks."

This is a protective magic item. Although it is not as well-forged as a grandmaster's work, it is still a rare spiritual artifact.

Before Pan Hongxiao could refuse, Wenjiu laughed and left.

Because his wife's personality was very similar to Pan Hongxiao's.

How could the Yuwen family be so foolish as to hope to subdue such a woman?

This woman can be killed, but not humiliated.

Wen Jiu originally thought Yuwen Yi was a smart man, and even a confidant.

Because Yuwen Yi helped him reproduce a kind of fine wine when he came last time.

This fine wine was brewed by the Lady of Warm Wine during her lifetime.

Since her death, Wenjiu has not tasted this flavor for fifty years.

He could drink all the fine wines in the world, but none of them were right.

Yuwen Yi helped him brew this fine wine, which is why Wen Jiu thought highly of him.

Without meticulous attention to detail, how could one achieve such success?

I never expected to do something so stupid.

He arrived with a broad smile and left laughing.

Only Pan Hongxiao truly understood the changes that had occurred during that time.

Thank you for the gift, sir.

Hua Feifei couldn't help but think to herself, "Young Master said he's an extraordinary person, but could it be the kind of extraordinary that's strange and eccentric?"

Hua Weimian frowned: "Don't talk about these things."

"The Luo family is showing signs of cooperating with the Yuwen family, so this person cannot represent the Luo family."

"Master, why is that?"

"Because he is a rare scion of a prominent family who would give up his surname for love."

"As a result, he was extremely talented and became a grandmaster."

Hua Feifei's eyes widened in surprise. "There are people like that?" she exclaimed.

"good."

Hua Weimian said earnestly, "Every martial will, once honed to its extreme, can generate incredible power."

"Feifei, you need to work on tempering your temper."

"You were able to advance to the Grandmaster level only because the young master gave you the precious pill and the罡玉 in advance."

"But at the martial arts level, they haven't adapted to these powers yet, which is why they experience such emotional fluctuations."

Hua Feifei apologized, "I understand, Master!"

Hua Feifei apologized for her behavior, and Hua Weimian finally showed a satisfied expression: "As long as you correct your shortcomings, your martial arts talent is still above mine."

"Gathering inner energy is just the beginning; the key is how to forge one's own will and understand one's own path."

Even someone like Wen Jiu, who betrayed his family for this ultimate emotion.

"This is also useful."

When a martial artist reaches the Grandmaster level, he begins to understand his own path.

My path is consistent and unchanging.

When Hua Weimian mentioned the life of warming wine, it seemed she was thinking of herself.

Desiring but not obtaining.

The Grand Tutor did not respond to this affection.

It felt like a dream.

Hua Feifei quickly agreed and asked curiously, "Master, who is that lady who warmed the wine?"

"He must be a member of the Demonic Sect, otherwise why would he betray his family for her?"

"No, it's our target this time: the Tang Clan."

Tang Sect, Council Hall: "I think the elders all understand."

"From now on, the Tang Clan will fully support the Crown Prince and participate in the struggle for the throne."

The ten elders all showed expressions of shock.

"Tang Ning, are you crazy?"

-

"Even your father wouldn't dare make such a decision."

"Indeed, the main branch's attempt to ally with the Crown Prince's residence failed; how can they drag the entire family down with them!"

"Family needs to make sacrifices. You can't be unhappy just because it involves sacrificing yourself."

The elders all rebuked them.

They weren't fools; Downing's decision was a huge gamble.

"Quiet, let me finish."

"My father has fallen ill, and as the acting head of the family, I have the authority to make decisions."

"It's not that the main branch wants to pledge allegiance to the Crown Prince now, but that the Yuwen family has already made its move."

"This assassination attempt was ordered by the Yuwen family."

Tang Ning gave a rebuke.

He first summoned the ten elders and announced the shocking news.

The ten elders of the Tang Clan immediately voiced their objections.

As a result, Tang Ning was even more arrogant than them, and directly brought up the assassination incident.

Everyone fell silent.

"Was this truly the work of the Yuwen family?"

Tang Ning said with a serious expression, "That's right, I have found solid evidence that the Yuwen family intends to wipe out the entire Tang family this time."

"Whether it's Third Uncle or Seventh Uncle, they all have to die. There's no room for negotiation."

The elders immediately fell silent.

Only the Fifth Elder still had some thought: "Tang Ning, you wouldn't exaggerate, would you? For your own benefit—"

"Don't worry, I've found witnesses."

As soon as he finished speaking, a beautiful woman in purple emerged from behind the screen in the conference room.

The beautiful woman chuckled and said, "This humble servant greets all the elders of the Tang Clan."

"You, you're from the Heavenly Demon Sect!"

The elders reacted swiftly and were about to take action.

"Hold your hand!"

Tang Ning sternly rebuked, "Elders, she is now an ally of the Tang Clan, and she is here to help the Tang Clan escape this calamity."

What?

Are you crazy?

You Ji was very famous in the Sichuan and Chongqing region because she was a master and fought against the Dingchuan army every day.

She was ranked twentieth on the blacklist, a person whom General Shi wanted to kill as soon as possible.

Now, Youji has actually become an ally of the Tang Sect.

Even more shockingly, Youji spoke up, saying, "This assassination attempt was carried out by my men."

"But the Yuwen family paid me to do this."

"Because they joined forces with the Holy Church to annihilate the Tang Clan."

The elders felt their brains were not working properly.

Only the Fifth Elder still possessed some critical thinking ability: "Then why did you join the Tang Sect?"

Youji chuckled: "Because the Yuwen family is too ambitious and plans to swallow up the Holy Sect as well."

The elders fell completely silent.

Tang Ning then spoke up: "Things have come to this point, the Tang Sect has no time to convene the Douluo Conference."

"All elders must obey the patriarch's command and unite to look forward."

One of the elders couldn't help but speak up: "Then at least the two hall masters should participate."

With Tang Qian and Tang Zhen each holding the position of hall master, such a meeting dared not make a decision.

Tang Ning sneered: "I'm afraid that won't work. Both of them are now suspected of colluding with the Yuwen family."

"We must make a plan; if we make even one wrong step, the entire Tang Clan will be destroyed."

"I might as well tell you that His Highness the Imperial Grandson has arrived at the Tang Clan."

There's no turning back.

What?

Tang Ning, you actually made the decision before informing us, acting first and reporting later.

This is simply unreasonable.

Just as the elders were about to berate Tang Ning, a tremendous sense of oppression swept over them.

Grandmaster level expert!

Zhao Jing walked out of the rest room in the secret chamber.

Although this was Long Lou unleashing his powerful aura, in the eyes of the elders, Zhao Jing was a grandmaster.

Tang Ning was the first to shout, "Greetings, Your Highness the Imperial Grandson!"

"Long live Your Highness! Long live Your Highness! Long live Your Highness!"

Upon seeing this, the other elders knelt down and shouted, "Long live Your Highness! Long live Your Highness! Long live Your Highness!"

"No need for formalities, please rise!"

Zhao Jing said softly, "I have already prepared the Dao artifact."

"Elders, please swear an oath to obey the command of Patriarch Tang Ning."

"If they do not comply, I will have no choice but to clean house for the Tang Clan."

The elders' expressions changed drastically as they tried to find a way to escape the secret chamber.

After all, there are two grandmasters in this secret room.

"Young Ning, why have you gone to such lengths?"

"How can the Tang Clan kill each other?"

"Tang Ning, have you thought about the consequences of doing this?"

'

"The sect leader will not agree!"

The elders cursed and accused them, but they dared not make any rash moves, fearing they would be killed by the Grandmaster.

Unexpectedly, the door to the secret room opened, and an elderly man with white hair walked in.

"I agree!"

The visitor was none other than Tang Kun, the leader of the Tang Clan.

After receiving the news, he remained silent for a long time before finally arriving at the secret room through the secret passage.

The ten elders couldn't help but sigh, "Patriarch, it turns out you weren't ill after all."

Tang Kun said coldly, "If it weren't for that, how could we know who is prioritizing the overall situation and who isn't?"

"Neither Tang Qian nor Tang Zhen are qualified."

"Tang Ning is the next leader."

"The Yuwen family intends to exterminate the entire Tang Clan. We have no choice but to follow His Highness the Imperial Grandson and fight to the very end."

The ten elders instinctively replied, "We understand."

The chaotic situation within the Tang Clan is finally coming to an end.

Tang Kun's original thoughts were no longer important; after the assassination attempt, he had no choice.

The ten elders had no further objections.

After Tang Kun finished doing all this, he bowed to Zhao Jing and said, "Greetings, Your Highness."

"I am late, Your Highness, please forgive me."

With Zhao Jing bringing Long Lou and You Ji, the fate of the Tang Clan was already decided.

Especially since he benefited from the power of the Heavenly Demon Sect, there was no other possibility.

Zhao Jing quickly stepped forward to help Tang Kun up, saying, "Sect Leader Tang, there's no need for such formalities."

"Our top priority now is to take over Xianyin Pavilion and thwart the Yuwen family's plans."

Tang Kun shook his head and said, "Your Highness is mistaken."

"There are still two people whose problems haven't been resolved."

Zhao Jing nodded and said, "Sect Leader Tang, rest assured, we have already made plans."

"One is releasing false intelligence, while the other is trying to win them over."

Tang Kun shook his head repeatedly: "Your Highness, this won't do."

Zhao Jing was taken aback.

This is already the best course of action. Once the overall situation is settled, the third son of the Tang family will normally give in.

All three grandmasters of the Tang Clan were able to be protected.

Tang Kun's smile turned somewhat menacing: "Those who achieve great things cannot be soft-hearted or soft-hearted."

"I can hardly believe that Tang Ning would agree to such a measure."

"The third brother must die."

"The Tang Clan will only be at peace if he's gone."

"As for the seventh brother, that's up to fate."

Everyone gasped.

It turns out that Tang Kun had been waiting for the most suitable opportunity to make his move after falling ill.

The ten elders shuddered when they saw Tang Kun like this for the first time.

They finally remembered that the most vicious and ruthless person in the Tang Clan was the sect leader.

"What are you still doing?"

"Hurry up and swear an oath to His Highness!"

"Yes, Sect Leader!"

The senior members of the Tang Clan immediately bowed and swore allegiance to the stupa.

Thus, the Tang Clan became Zhao Jing's Tang Clan.

Now we only need two more people.
