The person who came was tall, with a resolute face, and a pair of eyebrows as sharp as an eagle. He was Gale Martial Hall, the owner of Lie Changkong.
"Lie Changkong?"
Shi Chongshan looked gloomy. "You want to take a trip into this muddy water too?"
Lie Changkong snorted coldly, strode to Zhao Zhong's side, and stood shoulder to shoulder with him.
"Shi Chongshan, what benefit did Li Canghai give you to make you go to this deep mountain and old forest in the middle of the night to work for him?"
"Why does Shi need to explain to you what he does?"
Shi Chongshan snorted coldly.
His eyes were sinister, and although the disdain at the corner of his mouth had not faded away, there was a bit more solemnity deep in his eyes.
Zhao Zhong Late Transforming Force, Lie Changkong is just Middle Stage of Transforming Force, but if the two of them join forces, even if he is Peak Transforming Force, he will never be able to be as relaxed as he was just now.
"Lie Changkong, when did you Gale Martial Hall and Zhao Clan Martial Hall wear the same pair of pants?"
Looking at the two people in front of him, Shi Chongshan narrowed his eyes slightly and his tone was a little sarcastic.
"I just can't stand your face. Why, no?"
Lie Changkong looked at him with raised eyebrows.
"Okay, very good."
Seeing that he was so disrespectful to her, Shi Chongshan laughed angrily.
"Zhao Zhong, Lie Changkong, since you two insist on seeking death, then I will help you today."
The moment he finished speaking, the aura around Shi Chongshan suddenly changed, as violent as a volcano erupting.
Zhao Zhong and Lie Changkong looked at each other, with a trace of solemnity flashing in their eyes.
Taking advantage of this gap, Zhao Zhong turned to look at Lin Dingyuan and said in a deep voice, "Master Lin Lineage, there is something I wonder if you know."
Lin Dingyuan was supporting the injured Lin Feng. Hearing this, he raised his head with a puzzled look on his face. "Master Zhao, please speak."
"The news about the mineral vein here has been leaked for some reason, and now almost everyone knows about the entire Qingshan County."
Lin Dingyuan's pupils shrank suddenly when he heard this.
"Master Zhao, are you serious about this?"
"It's absolutely true!" Zhao Zhong said in a deep voice, "I thought you came here only after receiving the news, but judging from your appearance, that shouldn't be the case."
He paused and glanced at the scattered corpses in the mining area. "It is rumored that not only the mineral veins, but also the egg of a Third Tier ferocious beast appeared here. Now all forces, Jianghu Rogue Cultivator, and martial arts masters are coming from all directions Fang Chao."
Lin Dingyuan Hearing this, he immediately analyzed the current situation in his mind, and his face instantly became ugly.
"No way!"
Li Canghai, who heard this, turned pale and shouted sternly, "Only I, Li Clan and Lin Lineage, know about the mineral veins here. How can others know about it? This is absolutely impossible!"
His staggering figure was swaying, and he obviously didn't believe what Zhao Zhong said.
"It took me, Li Clan, more than half a year of planning to find out the location of the mine. No other person knows about it except me and Lin Lineage. How could an outsider know?"
He looked at Zhao Zhong with a ferocious face and hissed, "Zhao Zhong, don't talk nonsense here!"
Zhao Zhong frowned slightly. "Li Clan Lord, there is no need for me to joke with you at this time."
Li Canghai's face changed again and again, his chest heaved violently, and his bloodshot eyes stared at Zhao Zhong, as if trying to find traces of lying on his face.
But Zhao Zhong looked magnanimous, and it didn't look like he was fabricating it out of thin air.
"Impossible... impossible..."
Li Canghai staggered back two steps, mumbling these words over and over again.
He had been planning for this mineral vein for more than half a year. The manpower he had brought in, the money he had spent, and the favors he had gained were all enough to seriously damage Li Clan's vitality.
"Who? Who leaked it?"
Li Canghai Holding his head in his hands, everything in the past flashed through his mind.
Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something.
The sound stopped suddenly.
He raised his head suddenly, and his bloodshot eyes scanned the corpses scattered in the mining area.
He swept past the remnants of the Li Clan who were kneeling on the ground shivering in the distance, and finally landed on his son's body that had been split in half.
"Could it be that... from the beginning... from the very beginning when the news reached my ears, it was a trap?"
"Dark Iron Essence Gold The news about the mineral vein... was someone deliberately sent to me?"
With this conclusion, all the doubts that had been lingering in his heart in the past were finally connected at this moment.
Li Canghai suddenly stood there, his eyes filled with tears.
He suddenly let out a sad laugh.
"Like a mantis stalking a cicada, with the oriole behind, I, Li Clan, fight to the death for the mines. Is this just a farce in the eyes of others?"
He suddenly raised his head and looked at Lin Dingyuan: "Wrong! We were all wrong! Someone mistook our two families from the beginning."
Lin Dingyuan's face changed slightly.
"Li Canghai, what do you mean?"
"What do you mean?" Li Canghai smiled miserably, his smile full of despair and hatred, "Don't you understand how I, Li Clan, knew about the Dark Iron Essence Gold vein? You Lin Lineage carefully hid it for a year, and even few people in your own firm knew about it, but I, Li Clan, knew about it. Don't you think it's strange?"
Lin Dingyuan frowned.
Of course he felt strange.
He had suspected it at first, but he didn't find any clues.
"You mean... someone deliberately leaked the news to you and asked you to grab the mines?" Lin Dingyuan said in a deep voice.
"Not bad!" Li Canghai said with hatred on his face, "More than that, I suspect that someone deliberately let you Lin Lineage discover those veins at the beginning."
Lin Dingyuan felt like he was struck by lightning when he heard this, and he couldn't help but break out in cold sweat, because he knew that what Li Canghai said might be the truth.
The discovery of the ore vein was indeed full of doubts at first, but he didn't think much about it at that time, always thinking that he was lucky.
Zhao Zhong had been standing aside silently, and now he suddenly spoke, "Li Clan Lord, if what you said is true, then do you know who the person behind it is?"
Li Canghai opened his mouth, but shook his head.
He doesn't know.
He really doesn't know.
The person behind them was like an invisible hand, playing with them all the time.
Lin Dingyuan was silent for a moment, took a deep breath, and turned to look at Zhao Zhong: "Master Zhao, are you sure that the news about the mine veins you just mentioned is true?"
"Confirmed." Zhao Zhong nodded without hesitation. "Just two hours ago, Qingshan County major martial arts schools, gangs, and Rogue Cultivator circles simultaneously reported Black Wind Ridge has discovered the Dark Iron Essence Gold mineral veins and Third Tier ferocious beast eggs. Now all the major forces, even people from the county government are interested and are rushing here."
He paused and said with a solemn expression, "Based on my estimation, the first group of people have probably reached the outside of the mining area now. Within two hours, Black Wind Ridge will turn into a mess."
He glanced at Lie Changkong and continued, "Brother Lie came here overnight after receiving the news. The two of us met at the mountain pass, and then we realized that we were both here for this."
Lie Changkong interfaced. "Yes, my people have found out that at least seven or eight forces in Qingshan County have set off to rush to Black Wind Ridge. Great Saber Gang Zhou Xiongtu personally led the team, Iron Fist Martial Hall Luo Tiefeng and his disciples are also on the way. Although Flying Swallow Martial Hall Shui Qingqian did not come in person, he sent several of his disciples to investigate, and even the three major Lineage also sent out their own manpower."
He paused and continued, "I even heard that even a few old guys in the black market are interested in it. The temptation of Third Tier ferocious beast eggs is indeed not something that anyone can resist."
