70: Chapter 70 Door-to-Door Service

Yunlai Inn.

Since staying here, Pei Qingyun treated this place as another stronghold of the Pei Family.

Every day, his task was to eradicate Demons, then return to Cultivate.

Life was monotonous but fulfilling.

"I wonder how things went last night. I suppose with Tianlin and Pei Kong there, cleaning up these traitors shouldn't be much of a problem." Pei Qingyun felt he might be worrying for nothing.

With a Five-Viscera Martial Artist like Pei Tianlin there, failure was impossible.

Even if the Li Family was truly involved, they would at most return empty-handed.

Glancing at the sky, Pei Qingyun felt it was time to eradicate Demons.

Normally, with the absence of the Five-Viscera Martial Artist Pei Tianlin, the workload for eradicating Demons would be heavier.

In fact, he found it easier instead.

Perhaps it was because after so many days of relentless eradication, the Demons emerging from the Demon Source Evil Land had gradually been cleared out.

However, as long as the Demon Source Evil Land was not destroyed, the Calamity of Demons would never disappear.

Pei Qingyun sighed and didn't dwell on it further.

The Demon Source Evil Land was not something his level could touch. According to the legends he had heard, even the top experts of the Great Jing Dynasty could only temporarily Seal the lowest-level Demon sources, and he didn't even know if that rumor was true.

"Neigh!"

Just then, a loud sound of horse hooves came from outside the inn.

Pei Qingyun poked his head out and discovered the visitor was his scout.

"Looks like there is the latest news."

Before long, the scout went upstairs and saw Pei Qingyun standing at the door, a flash of surprise in his eyes.

But it was only for an instant, and the scout returned to normal. He walked up to Pei Qingyun and bowed slightly.

Then he handed the letter in his hand to Pei Qingyun.

In front of the scout, Pei Qingyun opened the letter directly, his gaze falling on the bottom right corner. This was a habit he had kept for a long time: when reading a letter, check the signature first.

Pei Tianrong!

Soon, Pei Qingyun finished reading the contents of the letter, a look of satisfaction appearing in his eyes.

Pei Qingyun had long considered taking action against the Li Family.

After all, Wuyang County was only so large.

Resources were limited, and no matter how one looked at it, the Li Family was a stumbling block on the Pei Family's path to growth.

Not to mention that after taking down the Li Family, the Family Luck would continue to increase.

Therefore, Pei Qingyun could find no reason to let the Li Family off.

As for whether Magistrate Tang Mu would intervene, that was not in his consideration at all.

Indeed, he didn't dare to kill Magistrate Tang Mu yet. But that didn't mean Magistrate Tang Mu could do anything to the Pei Family.

He wanted to destroy the Li Family, and Magistrate Tang Mu couldn't stop him.

On the streets of Wuyang County.

After leaving the Pei Family, Wang Gang and Pei Tianlin, along with a few others, hurried to the Li Family without stopping.

Li Family grounds.

Since learning that the Pei Family was also participating in this operation, Patriarch Li Wu had been thinking about how to escalate this matter to make it favorable for the Li Family.

After a night of thought, Patriarch Li Wu thought it would be better to use these broken weapons to file a complaint at the Yamen.

No matter what, Mufeng Manor was his Li Family's territory.

For the Pei Family and the Wang Family to break into a house and kill like this was clearly violating the unspoken rules among the powers in Wuyang County.

The Yamen, to put it nicely, was an institution of the Great Jing Dynasty to maintain stable rule. But in fact, it was just a den of filth where officials extorted money.

However, all of this had a prerequisite.

That was that Wuyang County must be stable and free of large-scale chaos.

The Wang Family and the Pei Family, as two of the largest powers in Wuyang County, choosing to do this was undoubtedly destroying the stability of Wuyang County.

Although Magistrate Tang Mu had promised him that he would step forward regarding the medicine garden title deed, being passively beaten like this was not a solution.

If he exposed this matter, he could take the initiative.

By then, if Magistrate Tang Mu didn't handle this matter, he could use public opinion to apply pressure and stir up a storm.

But just as he was preparing to act, he heard the news that Pei Tianlin and Wang Gang were visiting.

Patriarch Li Wu looked at the butler beside him with surprise and asked, "What are the two of them doing coming to my Li Family?"

The butler shook his head, "I don't know. They only said to let you come out and see them personally."

Patriarch Li Wu curled his lips and said disdainfully, "I'd like to see what kind of tricks they want to play."

Before long, Patriarch Li Wu met Pei Tianlin and Wang Gang.

The three people's eyes met, invisibly forming a clash of Aura.

To Patriarch Li Wu's surprise, this invisible clash was evenly matched.

In his impression, the two were only at Divine Power Perfection. While he was a Five-Viscera Martial Artist, even if he hadn't used his full strength, the clash of Aura shouldn't have been evenly matched.

Before he could think further, Wang Gang spoke first, "Head of the Wang Family, I know you took my Wang Family's medicine garden title deed. Please return it immediately."

Patriarch Li Wu feigned surprise and said, "Head of the Wang Family, why do you say that? Isn't your Wang Family's title deed always in the hands of your Wang Family? What does it have to do with my Li Family?"

Wang Gang's Face sank, and he looked at Patriarch Li Wu with unkind eyes, "Head of the Li Family, it's meaningless to talk like this. Our Wang Family traitor has already confessed that you took the medicine garden title deed. If the Head of the Li Family can hand over the title deed, our Wang Family can pretend this never happened."

Patriarch Li Wu said with a difficult expression, "Oh, Head of the Wang Family, it's not that I don't believe your words. But I really didn't take your Wang Family's medicine garden title deed. Could it be that your Wang Family traitor recognized the wrong person and shifted the blame onto me?"

"Head of the Wang Family, I suggest you go home and interrogate them again, and don't wrong my Li Family. My Li Family has always acted uprightly, unlike some people who bully the weak and fear the strong, only doing things that cannot be seen in the light."

Saying this, Patriarch Li Wu didn't forget to give the two a meaningful smile.

Looking at Patriarch Li Wu's Face, a trace of killing intent rose in Pei Tianlin's heart. But it was only for an instant, and it disappeared without a trace.

On Wang Gang's side, he was also thoroughly disgusted by Patriarch Li Wu.

His Face flushed red, and his fingers cracked as he clenched them. If it weren't for the fact that the Pei Family was already planning to deal with the Li Family, he would have already cursed out loud to vent the emotions in his heart.

Wang Gang calmed down and said slowly, "Head of the Li Family, do not harm yourself. Even if you took the Wang Family's medicine garden title deed, it is just a piece of waste paper. If you hand over the medicine garden title deed now, then there is still room for our two families to reconcile."

Patriarch Li Wu spread his hands helplessly, "I said I didn't take it, but you just won't believe me."

Wang Gang's eyes turned cold, "It seems this matter cannot be resolved easily. Don't think that just because your Li Family took the title deed, the medicine garden is yours. If the Head of the Li Family continues to be obsessed, then bear the consequences yourself."

Patriarch Li Wu's mouth curled up, revealing a disdainful smile, "Head of the Wang Family, I said I didn't take your Wang Family's title deed, but you just won't believe me. Now you are even threatening my Li Family. Could it be that the Li Family is so easy to bully?"

Speaking of this, Patriarch Li Wu suddenly changed the subject, his cold gaze fixed on Wang Gang, "Wang Gang, calling you Head of the Wang Family is giving you Face. Do you believe that I can make you, Wang Gang, unable to walk out of my Li Family?"

Wang Gang's Face changed, his eyes full of ferocity. If he had been acting before, this time, he was truly angry.

Wang Gang made a harsh threat, "Patriarch Li Wu, I will remember this. If you have the guts, keep me here; otherwise, wait for the revenge of my Wang Family."

Pei Tianlin on the side didn't speak, just subconsciously gripping the sword hilt at his waist.

If Patriarch Li Wu dared to make a move, he was ready to counterattack at any time.

Patriarch Li Wu grinned, revealing a cold, sinister smile, "Just a stray dog, yet still rampant in front of me. I, Patriarch Li Wu, will wait here for the revenge of your Wang Family."

Once these words were said, Pei Tianlin knew there was no need to continue talking.

He took a deep look at Patriarch Li Wu and said to Wang Gang, "Let's go."

Watching the backs of the two as they left, the butler on the side then spoke, "Patriarch, why didn't you keep them?"

Patriarch Li Wu shook his head, "Now is not the time to act. If we move against Pei Tianlin, my Li Family will be in a difficult position. At that time, even Magistrate Tang Mu would find it hard to intervene in the affairs of our two families. But now, there is still room for maneuver."

"In the end, it's still that my Li Family's strength is currently inferior to others." Patriarch Li Wu sighed.

If he were at the Mid stage of Five Viscera Realm, how could he have let the two go.

After leaving the Li Family, although the two were suppressing a burst of Qi in their hearts, they did not forget their mission.

Immediately, Wang Gang arranged for personnel to bribe the beggars on the street and some vagrants to spread the news of the Li Family stealing the Wang Family's title deed.

And Pei Tianlin returned to the Pei Family grounds with a belly full of anger.

Unknowingly, he came to the Patriarch's small courtyard.

At this time, Pei Tianrong had just received a letter brought by a scout.

Seeing a letter arrive, Pei Tianlin immediately went up and asked.

"Big Brother, whose letter is it?"

Pei Tianrong turned his head, a flash of surprise on his Face, "It's from the Old Ancestor. Why have you returned already?"

Pei Tianlin said with a tense Face, "Don't mention it, I'm full of anger. By the way, Old Ancestor, what does the letter say?"

Pei Tianrong rolled his eyes and said, "I haven't read it yet, what are you rushing for?"

Pei Tianlin, "Isn't this curiosity?"

"Wait until I finish reading it." Saying this, Pei Tianrong opened the letter and read it carefully.

The next moment, a smile appeared on Pei Tianrong's Face, "The Old Ancestor said to let us go all out and not have any scruples. When necessary, he will personally take action. As for the Yamen, don't worry about them either. If Magistrate Tang Mu insists on interfering in this matter, the Old Ancestor will naturally visit him."

Pei Tianlin said excitedly, "That's great. You don't know how arrogant that dog Li Wu was today; I almost couldn't help myself. He even dared to touch my Pei Family's things. It's just the right opportunity to destroy them."

Pei Tianrong shook his head and said, "This matter cannot be rushed. With the Old Ancestor's support, destroying the Li Family is only a matter of time. We should take this time to plan properly. Since we want to destroy the Li Family, we must catch them off guard."

Hearing Pei Tianrong say this, Pei Tianlin also felt that he had been impulsive and hot-headed.

Although the Li Family was not as good as the Pei Family in terms of top experts, in terms of Divine Strength Realm Martial Artists, the Li Family was not inferior to the Pei Family in quality or quantity.

Of course, if the Wang Family's Martial Artists were counted, the situation would be different.

But that was based on the premise that both sides poured out their full strength.

In fact, it was impossible for the Pei Family to do so.

As the aggressor, the Pei Family could retreat or defend.

But the Li Family was different; they only had the path of extermination or fighting to the death.

In this way, if the Pei Family chose to attack head-on without strategy, it would inevitably cause significant casualties.
