Text Chapter 1230 The Danger of Red Leaf City
"This matter must be investigated, but not now! After Yu'er comes back, it's not too late to talk about this matter!" Wang Luo's eyes burst into cold eyes, and he said coldly.
"Father, Yu'er mentioned in the letter that he was accompanied by the seniors of the Ghost King Sect!Is this true!" Wang Tai glanced around cautiously, and then asked Wang Luo in a low voice.
"Yes! Yu'er's return is very important to our Wang family! After Yu'er's return, there will be no more Xia and Xu families in Red Leaf City!" Wang Luo said coldly. In the end, Wang Luo also walked directly towards the mansion.
"Since the three family masters have already arrived, the city lord doesn't talk nonsense. Now tell the three family heads the reason for summoning the three family heads!" Qin Hongyu looked at the patriarchs of the three major families, and then said with a solemn face.
"You may all know about the Imperial Capital Dabi some time ago! Before the Imperial Capital Dabi, there was a major incident in the Great Qin Empire! This incident must have been heard of by the three family masters, that is, the five hidden families of the Great Qin Empire were wiped out overnight! This incident caused a huge sensation in the Great Qin Empire, and the real cause has not yet been ascertained! And after the Imperial Capital Dabi, a tragic incident happened again in a small town five hundred miles away from the imperial capital. Thousands of people in the town, regardless of the old, weak, women and children, were brutally killed overnight, and their deaths were extremely terrifying! The imperial capital has sent an imperial decree, and all cities need to step up their defenses in case of accidents!"
After a slight pause, after the three family masters digested their news, Qin Hongyu continued: "The three are the noble families of Red Leaf City, and they also know the special geographical environment in which Red Leaf City is located! Therefore, for the safety of Red Leaf City, the city lord specially invited the three family masters to seek countermeasures!" After Qin Hongyu finished speaking, his eyes swept solemnly over the heads of the three major families.
"The city lord invited the three major families to gather, I think the city lord should already have a countermeasure, as a member of Red Leaf City, the old man should do his part!" Xia Dingtian thought for a moment, and saw that Xu Maoxiong and Wang Luo did not have the posture of speaking, his brows couldn't help frowning slightly, and then he stood up and said to Qin Hongyu.
"The Xia family master really understands the righteousness! Qin Mou has thanked the Xia family master on behalf of the entire Red Leaf City here!" Qin Hongyu said to Xia Dingtian with a happy expression on his face.
"Don't dare! Don't dare! Red Leaf City is the foothold of the old decay, no matter who wants to get involved in the red leaf city, the old decay will do his best!" Xia Dingtian said impassionedly.
"The head of the Xia family sits down for a while, I don't know what the head of the Xu family and the head of the Wang family mean?" After Qin Hongyu waved his hand to signal Xia Dingtian, he then turned his attention to Xu Maoxiong, the head of the Xu family, and Wang Luo, the head of the Wang family. Although the Xia family seems to be on the same front as himself, in Red Leaf City, because of the alliance between the Xu and Wang families, the Xia family's power has greatly shrunk in the past two years. It has become the last of the three major families. Especially recently, the Xu and Wang families have a tendency to exterminate the Xia family. Originally, Qin Hongyu was still thinking about what method to use to solve the grievances of the three major families. After all, the Xu and Wang families didn't know the power of the Xia family, but he knew that there was still the existence of Lie Yuanzong behind the Xia family. Lieyuan Sect is one of the top ten sects of the Great Qin Empire, and its strength is comparable to that of the small Xu family and the Wang family!
Now is the right time to take advantage of this opportunity to eliminate some of the grievances of the three major families as much as possible. Otherwise, if the Xu and Wang families really do something to the Xia family, although the Xia family will suffer a great loss, it will be the Xu and Wang families who will disappear in Red Leaf City in the end, in order to maintain the stability of Red Leaf City, Qin Hongyu will definitely not let this kind of thing happen.
"Lord City Lord, just as the Lord of the Xia Family said, since Lord City Lord has summoned us here, presumably City Lord Qin already has a solution. So, the city lord, let's talk about your thoughts first!" Wang Luo, who had been silent, said with a smile.
"Okay, since the three heads of the family have said it. The city lord is no longer hiding!" Qin Hongyu's eyes flashed, and then he continued: "Although the garrison of Red Leaf City is sufficient, if you want to spread the entire Red Leaf City, it will be overstretched. Therefore, this city lord hopes that the three major families will temporarily give up their personal grievances and cooperate sincerely during this special time! After the Great Qin Empire finds out the truth of these two things, how about the three major families settle their own grievances!"
"The city lord is right! The survival of the three major families is based on the Red Leaf City. If Red Leaf City no longer exists, how can there be a foothold for the three major families! Therefore, the Xu family is willing to temporarily abandon their previous suspicions and jointly defend Red Leaf City!" After Qin Hongyu finished saying his thoughts, Xu Maoxiong glanced at Wang Luo, and saw that Wang Luo's eyes were lowered, as if he was thinking about something! After Qin Hongyu finished speaking, he set his eyes on himself. Feeling Qin Hongyu's scorching gaze, Xu Maoxiong thought for a moment, and then hurriedly made a statement.
"Okay! Good! Xu Jiazhuang is open-minded and worthy of being the head of the family! Qin also thanked the head of the Xu family on behalf of the entire Red Leaf City!" Seeing that Xu Maoxiong also stated his position, Qin Hongyu's hanging heart finally fell. Although the current situation in Momiji City is a little tense, it is still under its control so far, but if you want to survive this crisis, it is completely impossible to rely on the power of the City Lord's Mansion or a certain family alone. But now it is different, as the Xia family and the Xu family take a stand, they have a greater certainty of whether Red Leaf City can survive this crisis. As for the Wang family, under the joint pressure of the City Lord's Mansion and the Xia and Xu families, I believe that the Wang family will not be able to make any big waves in this matter. Sure enough, it was just like what Qin Hongyu thought in his heart, but Wang Luo's face was a little ugly!
"Hmph! I didn't expect the Xu family to put themselves together at this time! It's really hateful! What's even more odious is that the Xia family is old and immortal, and they agreed to Qin Hongyu so readily! Hmph, when Yu'er comes back, you will definitely regret it! At that time, only the Wang family will be the dominant of the three major families, and both the Xia and Xu families will become vassals of the Wang family! As for Qin Hongyu...... , What if you are the city lord!When the time comes, it is not the Wang family that has the final say!" Wang Luo saw that the matter had come to this point, if he did not agree, he would definitely become the target of public criticism. In that case, the Wang family might be removed from Red Leaf City right now!Therefore, while Wang Luo secretly hated in his heart, he could only nod with an ugly face.

"I thought that Qin would need to spend some time to persuade the three family masters to abandon their previous suspicions, but I didn't expect things to go so smoothly! Okay! Very good! Come on, hurry up and prepare good wine and food, this city lord is going to have a banquet for the heads of the three major families in the city lord's mansion today!" Qin Hongyu saw that the most important thing had been resolved, and the stone in his heart finally fell. He was in a good mood and said loudly to the guards outside the door.
"The city lord is really too polite, protecting Red Leaf City is what we should do!" Xu Maoxiong said with a smile.
"Don't hide it from the three of you, before the three of them came, the city lord was still thinking about how to persuade the three of them! I didn't expect it to be so easy! As long as the three of them and the city lord's mansion work together, presumably this crisis in Red Leaf City, we will have a greater grasp!" Qin Hongyu's originally smiling face suddenly condensed, and finally his brows furrowed and said with a solemn face. After finishing speaking, I sighed deeply!
"What does the city lord mean ......?" Xia Dingtian saw the solemnity in Qin Hongyu's eyes and the meaning of his words, and he had a bad premonition in his heart, and asked with some uncertainty.
"The three family masters, it's really not a secret! At the same time as the imperial edict came from the imperial capital, many bizarre things had already appeared in the Red Leaf Forest, and many cultivators who had entered the Red Leaf Forest to experience or explore had been brutally killed! What happened in Red Leaf City had not yet been clarified. I didn't expect news to come from the Imperial City at this time, although this news is not detailed, but it is similar to what happened in the Red Leaf Forest! Therefore, I have some suspicions that what happened in the Red Leaf Forest was the same force as what happened in the town outside the Imperial City of the Imperial Capital! If this is the case, Red Leaf City may be in danger!" Qin Hongyu sighed and told the three masters about the recent events in Red Leaf City!
"I have also heard about the things in the Red Leaf Forest in the past two days, and I thought it was just a rumor that someone deliberately released, but I didn't expect this to be true!" Xia Dingtian said with some shock.
"That's right! It is precisely because of this that the city lord is so anxious about the three family masters!" "Now that the three major families have agreed to form an alliance, they will also know about the affairs in the Red Leaf Forest sooner or later! In this case, it is better to tell the three major families first, so that they can prepare in advance!"
"In this way, Red Leaf City will really be in danger!" Xu Maoxiong asked in disbelief.
"How could this city lord joke about the safety of Red Leaf City!, therefore, please also ask the three family masters to gather the strength of the family after they go back to deal with the accidents that may occur!" Qin Hongyu did not have the slightest dissatisfaction with Xu Maoxiong's questioning.
