Chapter 169: Hanging together
More than ten days later at night, Nalanshi Island.
Nalan Peak looked at Xiaoshi Island under the moonlight in the distance, his face was slightly gloomy.
"Your Highness, in the past half month, a large number of Huangmai disciples have entered and left Xiao's Island. This situation is not good." A subordinate frowned.
"I know that Xiao Nanfeng is just trying to win people's hearts. He is also trying to build momentum for Ye Dafu and Ye Sanshui, huh." Nalan Feng said coldly.
"Xiao Nanfeng's hand actually reached out to the Huangmai disciples. Your Highness, don't you mind it?" the subordinate asked worriedly.
"What do you care? Why should I care about a dying person?" Nalan Feng said disdainfully.
"That's what His Highness said."
"Are you sure someone will break into Xiao's Island tonight?" Nalan Feng asked.
"Don't worry, Your Highness, in the past month, the news that Xiao Nanfeng is Xiao Hongye's son has spread to all the forces in the nearby sea area. It may still take some time to ferment, but there will definitely be people coming to seek revenge on Xiao Nanfeng.
"Tonight's news is extremely accurate. It is the third leader of the Blood Killing Gang who personally led a team to break into the island." The subordinate said with a solemn expression.
"Blood Killing Gang?" Nalan Feng asked doubtfully.
"The members of the Blood Killing Gang are all rebellious disciples from various major immortal sects. These people have been burning, killing and looting at sea. Later, Xiao Hongye came to kill them and started a bloodbath. The gang was almost wiped out. Only a few members of the Blood Killing Gang escaped.
, I have been hiding from Xiao Hongye all these years, and now I know that Xiao Hongye is missing and his son has appeared, so he is clamoring to take revenge." The subordinate said.
"A group of pirates?" Nalan Feng frowned.
"Your Highness, don't underestimate this group of pirates. There are two strong men in the Immortal Stage in the Blood Killing Gang. These three leaders are at the pinnacle of the Mortal Realm and are extremely powerful. When a group of people come to kill Xiao Nanfeng, even if he doesn't die, he still has to take off a layer.
Pi. Ah, they are coming, your highness, look quickly." The subordinate pointed into the distance with bright eyes.
Sure enough, under the moonlight, a sea ship appeared faintly. There were waves of fog covering the ship. In this night, it became more and more difficult for people to spot it. If Nalan Feng and others hadn't been watching, they wouldn't have been able to see it.
Qinghai boat approaching Xiaoshi Island.
"Only the third master is here? Xiao's Island has a large defense formation, can he do it?" Nalan Feng frowned.
"Don't worry, Your Highness, this third master used to be a disciple of the Immortal Sect who was good at formations. He should have the means to break the formations, right?" said a subordinate.
"Okay, then I'll wait to see what happens on Xiao's Island tomorrow morning." Nalan Feng said expectantly.
The group of people waited patiently with excitement until dawn the next day. Everyone saw that the ship of the Blood Killing Gang was towed away.
"What's going on? Where are the people from the Blood Killing Gang? Their ship was towed away by Xiao Nanfeng's people. Why didn't anyone stop them?" someone asked in shock.
"They are there!" Nalan Feng's pupils suddenly shrank.
"That's..." All the subordinates took a breath and said in surprise.
But they saw that in the red mist area illuminated by the sun, there were fifty red ropes that seemed to fall from the sky, each wrapped around the neck of a pirate, hanging the group of pirates in the air, and all fifty pirates were wiped out.
They were all hanged in the formation.
…
Xiao's Island.
"Who are these people? Sneaking to other people's houses in the middle of the night to hang themselves? Are you trying to surprise everyone?"
The Taiqing disciples who came to Xiao's Island by boat in the early morning were all attracted by these fifty hanged people.
"These are the pirates from the Blood Killing Gang?"
"These pirates are full of evil, burning, killing and looting at sea. They even robbed our ship last time. They died well."
"I heard that Elder Xiao Hongye almost destroyed the Blood Killing Gang back then. Did they come to seek revenge on Senior Brother?"
…
The disciples of Taiqing were talking about it for a while, but all the attackers were killed. In addition to clapping and applauding, everyone was also filled with horror at the formation on the island.
It wasn't until Zheng Qian explained to everyone that this formation was arranged using the red rope compensated by Nalan Feng that everyone felt relieved and secretly laughed at Nalan Feng's gift of treasure to Xiao Nanfeng.
In a valley on the island.
Old Turtle looked at the hanging pirates not far away, turned to Xiao Nanfeng and asked: "Are you sure that these people are related to Nalan Peak?"
"Didn't we catch a pirate for interrogation last night? Weren't you there too?" Xiao Nanfeng said with a smile.
"This group of pirates got anonymous information and came to take revenge on you. But how do you conclude that this matter must be related to Nalan Peak?" Old Turtle asked curiously.
"I guessed it." Xiao Nanfeng smiled.
Old Turtle: "..."
"Senior, aren't you injured and need healing? Why are you so concerned about the grudge between Nalan Feng and me?" Xiao Nanfeng asked curiously.
"I just feel worthless for you. You know who is plotting against you, but you can only watch because there is no evidence. What a pity! Are you just going to let Nalan Feng plot against you like this?" Lao Gui asked. .
"No one is a fool. Just because I don't say it doesn't mean that others can't guess it. No matter how secretive Nalan Peak is, Taiqing disciples will be able to guess the truth gradually. His prestige of Nalan Peak will gradually weaken. I do no harm, only good." Xiao Nanfeng said with a smile.
"But, Nalan Feng is still targeting you. Don't you want to seek revenge from him? I can help you." Old Turtle advised.
"Senior, I'm not in a hurry, and I don't want to take action for the time being." Xiao Nanfeng said with a smile.
He wanted to deal with Nalan Feng, but after experiencing the incident of the elders protecting Nalan Feng, he understood that it was useless to retaliate against Nalan Feng in a big way.
The old turtle in front of him kept making a fuss in front of him. Xiao Nanfeng felt wary. I'm afraid this old turtle didn't have good intentions either.
…
In the next ten days or so, people broke into Xiao's Island one after another. However, without exception, they came quietly at night, and then quietly hanged themselves collectively in the morning. Among them, there was also a pirate from the Sendai realm who hanged himself in the morning. When he died outside the island, a large number of Taiqing disciples came to marvel at him.
On the island, everything remains the same and everyone's lives are not affected.
Xiao Nanfeng taught a group of Taiqing disciples boxing skills in the morning and pointed out the Taoist scriptures they needed to study.
"Okay, that's it for the morning's boxing practice. You go back and practice hard. If you don't break through in cultivation, don't come to see me." Xiao Nanfeng said with a smile.
"Thank you, Senior Brother." Everyone said gratefully.
Finally, one of the Xuanmai disciples couldn't help it anymore: "Senior Brother, we captured a few members of the Blood Killing Gang at sea this morning. They were all planning to sneak into Xiao's Island and assassinate you, but they swam. They were so frightened that they abandoned the ship and fled when they saw the second master in front being hanged in a large formation. They said that more than a month ago, someone secretly reported to their gang, saying that you were the son of Xiao Hongye, and that you lived in Xiao There are a lot of treasures and magic weapons on Uji Island, which attracted them to assassinate you."
"That's right, we calculated the time and it must have been someone from Taiqing Island who leaked the identity of Senior Brother in such a short time."
"Senior Brother, I guess it must be Nalan Feng who did it. He is too vicious."
…
A group of Taiqing disciples were scolding each other, but several Huangmai disciples standing not far away looked embarrassed and didn't know what to do.
"Okay, if there is no evidence, don't say anything, so as not to get angry." Xiao Nanfeng immediately scolded.
"But..." The junior brothers were still unwilling to give in.
"I understand your thoughts. However, these assassins did not hurt me after all. Besides, these my father's enemies will come to me sooner or later to seek revenge. One day sooner or one day later is nothing. Don't hurt your fellow sect members.
Be kind. You don't need to get involved in this matter. It has nothing to do with you, so don't be implicated." Xiao Nanfeng reassured.
All the junior brothers were angry for a while. They had received Xiao Nanfeng's guidance and were grateful to Xiao Nanfeng. At this moment, they saw Xiao Nanfeng being plotted by others. They had clearly guessed the enemy, but they could only endure it. Xiao Nanfeng still did it for them.
For their own sake, they asked them not to interfere. They were very indignant and grateful. At the same time, they became more and more disgusted with Nalan Feng, feeling that a character like Nalan Feng was not worthy of being a senior brother of Huangmai. Even some Huangmai disciples,
At this moment, I was too embarrassed to defend Nalan Feng.
Just like this, more than a month passed. People on Xiao's Island quietly came to hang themselves one after another. This matter had caused a sensation in the Taiqing Immortal Sect. However, Xiao Nanfeng, the person involved, did not go into details, so naturally no elder came forward.
It was just that the Taiqing disciples kept whispering among themselves, and this matter became a recreational topic for countless disciples after dinner.
On this day, Nalan Feng arrived at Taiqing Island with several of his subordinates. On the way to the Sutra Pavilion, he suddenly discovered that when the surrounding Taiqing disciples saw him, they all avoided him. Among them, there were several Huang
Before leaving, the disciple Mai even showed an expression of disgust towards him.
"These people usually greet His Highness in a flattering manner when they see him. What happened today?" a subordinate asked curiously.
Nalan Feng looked at the people who were avoiding him like the plague, and he suddenly stopped.
"Your Highness, what's wrong?" Several subordinates immediately stepped forward.
"Yes, I was tricked by Xiao Nanfeng again." Nalan Feng's expression changed.
"What?" All the subordinates were confused.
"Xiao Nanfeng has never criticized me in the past two months. He has just been teaching boxing skills to all disciples. He is not only showing kindness to the junior disciples, but also deliberately showing weakness in front of everyone to win the sympathy of the junior disciples.
"Inciting all the junior brothers to hate me." Nalan Feng's pupils shrank.
"I have also heard some rumors, but without evidence, how can he win over His Highness?" A subordinate asked in confusion.
"You know nothing, he is trying to win people's hearts, don't you see?" Nalan Feng said coldly.
"So what?" The subordinate was still puzzled.
"He knows that many elders in the sect support me, so if he targets me, he will definitely be suppressed by the elders. When he is isolated and helpless, once he attacks me, he will only make a joke. But now it is different, he
Having gathered a lot of people's hearts, he is about to succeed and he will take action against me." Nalan Feng's expression suddenly changed wildly.
"What? How is it possible? How dare he?" one of his subordinates said in disbelief.
…
Xiao's Island.
Xiao Nanfeng and Zheng Qian were sitting in a pavilion drinking tea.
"My benefactor, can we take action now?" Zheng Qian asked.
"It's almost time. It's time to teach Nalan Feng an unforgettable lesson, so that he won't have to plot against me every day. I don't have the time to mess around with him all the time." Xiao Nanfeng took a sip of tea and said coldly.
