The Immortal Clan was established starting with the entry on the Dao of the Gou.

Analyze the content of the letter.

Fang Yixun has cultivated for over sixty years and has indeed successfully established his foundation.

However, due to the Chu family's summons, he had no choice but to obey their arrangements and go to a certain place to fight against the immortals.

The battle between immortals is of unknown duration.

Unable to protect the Fang family after his departure, he left a token for his elder brother, Fang Yilong.

Who would have thought that Fang Yilong would die of old age a few years later.

The entire Fang family was wiped out tonight, and they didn't even have the chance to use their token to ask the Flowing Cloud Sword Sect for help.

In the end, the token ended up in Jiang Yun's hands, which benefited him.

"This token is a symbol of the Flowing Cloud Sword Sect, and there should be more than one."

"With this token, the Flowing Cloud Sword Sect can fulfill one condition, so I'll accept it for now."

Upon learning the token's purpose, Jiang Yun immediately put it into her storage bag.

He then burned the letter to ashes.

At this moment, Ling'er also finished counting the silver notes.

"My lord, there are a total of 15 taels of silver notes."

Ling'er said excitedly.

She could hardly imagine it.

My family suddenly became so rich.

Last time it was 20,000 taels, this time it's 150,000 taels.

The total amount is 17 taels.

This amount of silver, even in the mortal world, would last three generations!

"It's only 15 taels of silver. My husband's mid-grade spirit stone is worth 10 taels of silver."

Jiang Yun has a number of mid-grade spirit stones.

Ever since he learned that spirit stones could be exchanged for silver at the Xiao Clan Chamber of Commerce, he no longer felt that tens of thousands of taels of silver were nothing.

After all, things aren't as difficult now as they used to be.

……

Early the next morning.

The neighbors gathered together and talked about the landlord's family.

Fang Yu and his family were among them.

Jiang Yun, the culprit, would occasionally chime in with a few words.

"You made the whole village attend your funeral, now you're getting your comeuppance, aren't you?"

"What exactly happened? Did the funeral hall catch fire, causing the landlord's entire family to be burned to death?"

"I guess they did too many bad things and were punished by God. Otherwise, how could a fire have burned them all to death?"

"Now I don't have to go to the funeral. I was wondering whether to go tomorrow or not."

"What goes around comes around; retribution is inevitable. I never thought the landlord family would end up like this."

……

The neighbors only heard that the landlord's house caught fire last night, and knew nothing else.

They were all speculating about the cause of the fire.

After all, a fire couldn't possibly take the lives of everyone in the landlord's family.

There must be more to this story than meets the eye.

"Brother-in-law, what do you think?" Fang Yu asked Jiang Yun.

"Who knows?"

Jiang Yun shook her head.

Of all these people, only he and Ling'er knew the inside story.

Meng Chunmei glanced at Jiang Yun and Ling'er's expressions, seemingly lost in thought.

She had long suspected that her son-in-law was no ordinary person.

Perhaps he was the one who did it!

"Could my son-in-law really be an immortal?"

"Ling'er has become an immortal too?"

Meng Chunmei has begun to suspect Jiang Yun and Ling'er.

Because so many years have passed.

Jiang Yun and Ling'er's appearances really haven't changed at all.

Only immortals possess the ability to maintain eternal youth.

That's why Meng Chunmei had this guess and began to have doubts.

"That's enough, get back to work."

"The authorities will definitely investigate this matter, and we'll find out then."

After chatting for a while, the neighbors dispersed.

"I have to go to work now."

Fang Yu also went home, picked up his farm tools, and went out to work with Luo Susu.

It's the busy season for farming now.

No matter how big the trouble was for the landlords, they still had to cultivate the land and farm.

After everyone had left...

Jiang Yun returned home.

Jiang Deyue crept over and whispered, "Father, did you do the things with the landlord's family?"

Jiang Yun's pupils contracted.

He thought to himself, "How could my daughter even guess this?"

Or did Ling'er tell her?

How did you know?

Jiang Yun didn't intend to hide it from her daughter and asked her about it.

"It really is you! I just asked my mother, but she wouldn't tell me." Jiang Deyue laughed, "Only you, Father, have this ability."

"Yes, you're very smart," Jiang Yun praised repeatedly, then asked, "Do you think Father did the right thing?"

"Father's actions have their reasons," Jiang Deyue said. "Your daughter cannot know whether they are right or wrong."

Jiang Yun nodded. "Go ahead. Just keep this to yourself. Don't tell your older brother or younger brother."

"My daughter understands."

Jiang Deyue took her leave.

After she left, Ling'er ran over quickly.

"Husband, did you tell her the truth?"

Ling'er asked with some concern.

She was afraid that if Jiang Deyue knew the truth, she would distance herself from Jiang Yun.

After all, so many lives were lost.

Jiang Deyue knows that these people were killed by Jiang Yun. How does he view this matter?

"She guessed it," Jiang Yun said with relief. "With Deyue's intelligence, she's destined for great things."

"What does she think about this?" Ling'er pressed.

"I asked her whether this matter was right or wrong, and she said that her father's actions were reasonable."

Jiang Yun said with a smile.

He was very satisfied with Jiang Deyue's intelligent and calm personality.

"That's good."

Ling'er breathed a sigh of relief.

Noon.

News of the landlord's family being brutally murdered reached the Yongning County government office.

"What? They're all dead?"

"Lord Fang Liping is dead too?"

"When I went to pay my respects with County Magistrate Lin a few days ago, he was perfectly fine, wasn't he?"

When Magistrate Cao heard the report from his servant, he trembled all over.

He served as the magistrate of Yongning County for more than 20 years.

This is the first time I've encountered such a big case.

Moreover, the one who died was an official appointed by the imperial court.

Fang Liping worked in Huaizhou Prefecture, and his position was second only to the prefect.

Fang Likun and Fang Lipeng both held important positions in the military.

All three of them died overnight.

How can I explain this to my superiors?

"Your Excellency, I'm afraid they're all dead. Their bodies have been burned to ashes, and it's impossible to tell who Fang Liping is."

The subordinate knelt on the ground and reported the situation of the Fang family to Magistrate Cao in detail.

"Who dares to be so audacious!" Magistrate Cao slammed his hand on his desk. "Guards, go to the Fang residence in Qingshan Village!"

"Sir, what has happened?" County Lieutenant Lin asked as he walked in from outside.

"The entire Fang Yilong family was wiped out, and Lord Fang Liping is also dead."

Magistrate Cao looked anxious. "If this matter isn't thoroughly investigated and the real culprit isn't caught, we're both in mortal danger!"

"Such a thing is true..."

County Magistrate Lin's face turned pale.

The Fang family in Qingshan Village is no ordinary family.

Even the county magistrate had to be humble and deferential when he met the Fang family.

Who is so audacious as to exterminate the entire Fang family?

"We should not delay. Let's take more men and go to the Fang residence to find out what's going on."

Magistrate Cao dared not delay.

They immediately mustered their troops and set off for Qingshan Village.

We arrived at Fangfu in Qingshan Village.

The mansion was in complete disarray.

The front yard was a mess, with all sorts of furniture overturned and scattered.

Perhaps it was caused by the servants of the Fang family looting money last night.

The houses in the backyard were all in ruins, burned to the ground.

The burned ruins were filled with skeletons.

These skeletons are so numerous that it is impossible to distinguish who is Fang Liping and who is Fang Lipeng.

"Let's go take a look."

The county magistrate ordered the coroner to examine the body.

However, the body had long since turned into charred bones.

The coroner spent half a day searching but found no clues.
