Chapter 250: Kong Sheng

"Kong Sheng?" Mo Hua asked, a little doubtful. "Is this the Kong family's merchant team?"

Yu Chengyi shook his head. "It's an ordinary merchant team, carrying elixirs, passing through Qingxuan City to do business here in Tongxian City."

Mo Hua was a little confused. "Then why is that young master of the Kong family in this merchant team?"

Yu Chengyi's expression was a little hard to describe. "According to him, he wanted to come over in person, kill Ji Qingbai and his son, and then take Fu Lan back..."

Mo Hua was silent for a moment, then asked, "Is he a Foundation Building cultivator?"

Yu Chengyi sighed. "Same as you, Qi Refining level seven..."

Mo Hua's expression was also a little hard to describe. He sighed, "His brain must have been eaten by a pig."

To dare to leave with a merchant team alone, and even dare to enter the inner mountains of Great Black Mountain, he really doesn't know the meaning of death.

Yu Chengyi said, "I heard that this Kong Sheng has been spoiled since he was young, and he is extremely selfish. He gets whatever he wants and does whatever he wants, and no one dares to disobey him. He has beaten up cultivators of the same age and forcibly stolen things from female cultivators many times, but no one dared to do anything about it..."

"Later, on the street, he saw that Fu Lan was pretty and developed evil intentions, wanting Fu Lan to be his concubine. Fu Lan refused, so he pressed her step by step, harassing her until her mother died. Finally, Ji family father and son were indignant and gave him a beating, but they didn't dare to kill him."

"Kong Sheng was not appeased, so he had the Kong family cultivators hunt and kill Ji family father and son. Later, he even hired evil cultivators to vent his anger."

"But the evil cultivators failed. Kong Sheng was angry and frustrated and wanted to come in person. The Kong family didn't agree, so he had ill intentions and disguised himself, privately following the merchant team towards Tongxian City."

Yu Chengyi explained everything in detail.

Mo Hua listened, feeling a little unbelievable. This Kong Sheng was actually more stupid than Qian Xing.

When Qian Xing did things, at least he knew to bring a group of lackeys as henchmen, and he rarely left the city.

This Kong Sheng didn't bring any lackeys and actually dared to go out, still thinking of killing people in person.

Does he really think others don't dare to kill him?

"So he spent spirit stones to hire evil cultivators to kill people, and then disguised himself and left the city, only to be killed by the evil cultivators himself?" Mo Hua said slowly.

"To put it simply, that's the situation..." Yu Chengyi's expression was a little complex. "However, it's not certain if he was killed. It's also possible that he was just kidnapped."

Mo Hua felt a little schadenfreude and laughed, "Retribution. He absolutely deserves it. It's best if he's killed. Even if he's alive, he's just a waste of spirit stones."

Yu Chengyi listened and couldn't help but laugh out loud. After a moment, he sighed again, "But this matter is also troublesome."

"Whether he's dead or alive, what does it have to do with us?" Mo Hua didn't understand.

"Kong Sheng had a feud with Ji family father and son, and he disappeared in Great Black Mountain. The Kong family suspects that this matter was done by the Ji brothers and wants us to hand them over."

Mo Hua raised an eyebrow. "Are they dreaming? How can they be so overbearing?"

Yu Chengyi nodded. "Indeed, they are too overbearing."

Mo Hua then worried, "Can we beat the Kong family?"

Yu Chengyi laughed, "Don't worry. Even the Qian family can't do anything to us now, let alone the foreign Kong family. If they dare to come and cause trouble, the knives in our hands are not just for show."

Mo Hua nodded in relief. "If they dare to come, just kill them all. They're probably not good people!"

Yu Chengyi said again, "However, although they may not dare to come, they will likely exert pressure through the Dao Court Office in Qingxuan City."

"Can the Dao Court Office in Qingxuan City interfere with matters in Tongxian City?"

"That's a matter for the Dao Court Office. I'm not clear on the specifics. We'll just have to take it one step at a time."

"Okay." Mo Hua nodded.

After finishing speaking, Yu Chengyi separated from Mo Hua and went to see Elder Yu to discuss matters.

Mo Hua was a little concerned, so when Zhang Lan came to the eatery for a drink, he asked him, "What's going on with the Kong family young master?"

Zhang Lan had just sat down and hadn't even finished his first mouthful of wine when he heard this, feeling a little helpless.

He had just heard about the Kong Sheng matter from Palm Si not long ago, and then Mo Hua immediately caught him to inquire.

Zhang Lan couldn't help but say, "How do you know everything?"

"That's not the key," Mo Hua waved his hand and looked at Zhang Lan with bright eyes. "Will the Dao Court Office in Qingxuan City interfere?"

Zhang Lan sighed.

Okay, he hadn't even answered the first question yet, and Mo Hua was already asking the second.

However, in Tongxian City, Mo Hua knew too many people. From the Palm Si of the Dao Court Office to the demon hunters all over the mountain, and even the children running around the streets, he probably knew all their names.

It was normal for him to know about the Kong Sheng matter.

Moreover, he estimated that he would still need Mo Hua's help in this matter.

Zhang Lan then said, "The current conclusion from the Dao Court Office is that the Kong family young master was kidnapped by evil cultivators. We need to enter the mountain to arrest the evil cultivators and rescue the Kong family young master."

"Not dead?"

Mo Hua was a little regretful.

Zhang Lan blinked at Mo Hua. "You hope he dies?"

Mo Hua nodded honestly and then said, "It's also fine if he dies a terrible death."

Zhang Lan's expression paused. He thought about it and felt that what Mo Hua said was also right. If Kong Sheng died, Qingxuan City would have one less scoundrel.

"That's true, but we still have to find him. Moreover, the Dao Court Office in Qingxuan City will also send people over to search with us."

"How many people will they send?"

"Not too many, at most three or four. Too few are useless, and too many would be suspected of interfering with the affairs of our Dao Court Office here, which is a taboo."

"Three or four is still okay." Mo Hua nodded and asked again, "Won't the Kong family send people over?"

Zhang Lan took a sip of wine and looked at Mo Hua meaningfully, saying:

"Isn't the Dao Court Office in Qingxuan City also the Kong family's people?"

"Oh." Mo Hua understood.

It seemed that everyone was well aware of the situation in Qingxuan City.

The Kong family borrowed the power of the Dao Court Office, which was not only justified but also saved time and effort.

After all, it was much more convenient for the Dao Court Office to act.

"This matter will probably still need your help." Zhang Lan said again.

"Not going." Mo Hua directly refused.

For other matters, he would naturally agree out of respect for Zhang Lan.

But for this matter, Mo Hua would definitely not help.

For someone like Kong Sheng, it was already good that he didn't use the Earth Fire Array to send him to heaven. Why would he be willing to waste time rescuing him?

"Don't be in a hurry to refuse." Zhang Lan smiled. "It's not about rescuing Kong Sheng, but those evil cultivators. Don't you want to catch them?"

"That bald head?"

"Right." Zhang Lan nodded. "Leaving him in the mountains is always a hidden danger. If he gathers other evil cultivators and forms a force, it will be much more dangerous for you when you enter the mountains to hunt demons."

Mo Hua was still not very willing.

Zhang Lan then said, "After the matter is successful, the Dao Court Office will give you benefits."

"Benefits?" Mo Hua's eyes lit up. "What benefits?"

"You'll know then. It won't let you suffer a loss." Zhang Lan laughed.

"Tell me first."

Mo Hua was very curious about what benefits the Dao Court Office would give him.

Zhang Lan, however, kept him in suspense and refused to say, only saying, "You help us catch that bald monk, and you'll naturally know what the benefits are."

Mo Hua blinked and laughed, "If you don't tell me, I won't help."

Zhang Lan didn't fall for his trick and also smiled, saying, "If you don't help, then forget it. However, you might regret it then."

Uncle Zhang Lan is also a shrewd person... he won't reveal his hand until he sees results.

Mo Hua sighed and said, "Okay then."

Anyway, he also wanted to catch that bald head. This time, it would just be convenient, and he could also benefit from the Dao Court Office.
