MTL - I Am Invincible After Awakening the Superman Gene-Chapter 116 Xia's plan

  Chapter 116 Xia's plan

   All this, no one knows.

   When Qin Mo returned home and sat on the sofa, it was not yet half past five.

  The battle ended too quickly.

  Qin Mo stretched, picked up a small white fan on the coffee table, and unfolded it with a clatter.

  The fan is of normal size, the fan surface is pure white, like a picture scroll that has not been touched with ink, it is empty.

   This is the crystallization of elements that Kong Ying precipitated. As an S-level awakener of the wind element system, the crystallization is naturally related to the Wind Society.

  Seeing Qin Mo holding a fan and waving it lightly, the wind elements in the living room suddenly became frenzied, gathering towards this place from all directions, trying to form a whirlwind.

  However, just as the wind whirl cast a shadow, it was blown away by an extremely strong suction force.

  A white airflow appeared in the air, drawn a graceful arc, and entered Qin Mo's mouth.

  Qin Mo's throat rolled and he swallowed it directly into his stomach, followed by a full belch.

   Fengxuan was actually eaten by him!

  If anyone else saw the scene just now, they would surely be shocked from ear to ear, with a horrified look on their faces.

   You know, this is the crystallization of elements precipitated by the fourth-level S-level awakeners. The destructive power it can cause is quite powerful, and it is not a problem to easily hit the first- and second-level awakeners.

  However, it is now in Qin Mo's stomach.

  The powerful steel body directly crushed the wind whirlwind without any damage at all.

  Qin Mo acted as if nothing had happened.

   "Heh, the power is not as powerful as my super breath."

  He muttered in a low voice, and threw the fan into the drawer in a dispirited manner.

  Afterwards, Qin Mo picked up the delicate mirror on the coffee table.

  The mirror looks like an antique, with traces of time on it, it is brass-colored, hexagonal, only slightly larger than a palm.

  Qin Mo looked it over and over several times, and finally confirmed that it was a breast shield, which was a defensive relic of the Holy Spirit.

  After being activated, a phantom of a big tengu will appear in the copper-yellow ancient territory, and there will be a faint roaring sound in the ears.

   "The defensive relic of the holy spirit is the most useful, but unfortunately it is useless to me." Qin Mo shook his head and said in a low voice.

  His current personal defense is not generally strong, not to mention Qin Mo's steel body, the black water mysterious armor sent by the elders alone is enough for Qin Mo to resist most of the attacks.

   Therefore, this mirror is really useless to him.

   "Okay, you can eat ashes too."

  Qin Mo threw the mirror away, and he threw the mirror into the drawer under the TV table with a clang, making a crisp sound.

  He looked at the drawer full of Holy Spirit relics and elemental crystals, and couldn't help frowning.

  These are all the trophies he has collected recently. There are more than a dozen of them, and the drawers can hardly fit them.

   "It seems that I have to find time to go to the whole collection cabinet to display at home."

  Qin Mo thought to himself, he has a little collection and obsessive-compulsive disorder.

   It’s pretty much the same when there are few things, but once there are too many things, Qin Mo finds it difficult to accept the messy arrangement.

   After viewing the loot, it's time to eat.

  Qin Mo looked at his refrigerator, and finally decided to cook for himself.

  The long night has just begun, and I always have to find something to do for myself.

  …

  …

   Two flowers bloom, each representing a branch.

  Just as Qin Mo put on his apron and walked into the kitchen alone, the Xia Family Castle in Shangyun District was another lively scene.

   On the third floor of the castle, there is a huge conference room with a simple layout, a long table, dozens of seats, and nothing else.

  The burly Xia Zu sat at the head of the long table, his eyelids drooped, his hands and fingers crossed in front of his chest, and he had the majesty of a superior.

  The chief steward of the castle, Xia Xuan, was sitting next to Xia Zu, with a smile on his face and a happy expression on his face.

   Opposite him sat a grey-haired thin old man. He looked ugly, but under his thin body was extremely terrifying power.

  There were about twenty people sitting around the long table, including men and women of different ages.

   Those who can sit in this meeting room today are all core members of the Gaoling Xia Clan, and most of them have a very high status in the Presbyterian Church.

  They gathered here, and what they were discussing was how the Xia Clan would plan for the next step.

  After all, if you want to be promoted to a top family, you will definitely not be able to rely solely on building momentum.

  Everyone understands this, only to hear Xia Xuan speak first:

   "I have been operating in the imperial capital for many years, and I have dredged up the relationship between various departments, but these relationships are not strong. It may not be so easy to install our people in important positions."

   "No problem."

  Before Xia Xuan's voice fell to the ground, the white-haired old man sitting opposite him slowly said: "As long as there are people, there will definitely be an exchange of benefits.

  Since ancient times, money has moved people's hearts, as long as they come up with a condition that the other party cannot refuse, then they will not be afraid of being tempted. "

  Xia Dongfang's cloudy eyes suddenly flashed a gleam of light, which is a confident look.

  He is more than ninety years old this year, and he is the most experienced person present, and he has an extremely thorough understanding of the control of people's hearts.

  Hearing his words, everyone couldn't help but nodded in agreement.

  However, the smile on Xia Xuan's face didn't increase a bit, instead his brows were slightly frowned.

   "Old Xia is right, but many important positions in various departments of the imperial capital have been firmly controlled by five thousand-year-old aristocratic families. It may be very difficult to seduce them."

  Although what he said was that the difficulty was very high, but which of the people present is not a human being?

   It is simply impossible for everyone to hear the hidden meaning in Xia Xuan's words.

  Xia Xuan said this on purpose, obviously to take care of Xia Dongfang's face.

  The children of the five thousand-year-old families will not be easily handled, but will also cause them all kinds of stumbling blocks and increase the resistance of the Xia family.

   After all, whoever is in an important position means that whoever will get a large amount of resources, and has greater influence and more voice.

   Not to mention, the situation in the imperial capital has not changed for a long time, and no one would want to have another mountain with the Gaoling Xia family engraved on it.

  Especially the five thousand-year-old families.

   This is absolutely not allowed.

  Thinking like this, everyone frowned, carefully considering better countermeasures in their hearts.

  Xia Dongfang was the same, he was not dissatisfied with Xia Xuan's speech just now.

  The voices in the conference room gradually became louder, and everyone began to whisper, wanting to come up with a better solution.

   But several minutes passed, and there was still no result.

   Seeing this, Xia Zu's crossed fingers suddenly trembled, he slowly raised his eyelids, and his indifferent gaze swept over everyone's eyes.

  Boom boom boom.

  Xia Zu flicked the long table three times with his knuckles, attracting everyone's attention, and the hall gradually fell into silence.

  Afterwards, he slowly opened his mouth and said, "Xia Clan's next actions will be carried out in two parts, light and dark."

   Without waiting for everyone to ask questions, Xia Zu continued to speak in detail: "Xia Xuan is responsible for the actions on the surface, mediating with various forces, and trying every means to send our people in.

   As for the secret actions, it will be difficult for the second uncle. "

   "You can arrange it, I have no objection." Xia Dongfang smiled and nodded.

   Seeing this, Xia Zu went on to say: "Then it's decided, as long as there is a vacancy in the original position, it will naturally require a new candidate to fill it."

   "Such a person must be extremely capable and loyal to our Great Qin Empire. Looking at the entire Great Qin, who can be more loyal than my Xia family?"

  Suddenly a domineering aura surged up in the conference hall, gathering on Xia Zu's body, revealing an extremely strong self-confidence.

  Every word and sentence, sonorous and forceful, resounding!

  Xia Zu looked at the end of the long table, eyes full of disdain.

  He knocked on the table, drew everyone's attention back, and said slowly:

   "The five thousand-year-old families, whether they are loyal to the Great Qin or the Heavenly King, in His Majesty's eyes...

  See clearly. "

   After saying a word, the whole hall was silent.

  Everyone savored his words carefully, a faint smile gradually appeared on their faces, and green bamboos seemed to grow in their chests.

   What Xiazu said was obvious enough, so there is no need to go into details.

  There is only one thing they have to do now.

   That is to find a suitable target, and then use the power under the table to kill the target!

  At this moment, everyone's deep respect for Xia Zu rose from the bottom of their hearts.

  It wasn't until this time that they understood why they had to divide into two groups, light and dark, to enter the imperial capital before departure.

  Xiazu's layout has reached this point, which is enough to be called a wise and scheming sentence.

  Everyone nodded one after another, then they all stood up and faced Xia Zu, respectfully saying:

   "Follow the general's orders."

  The voice echoed in the conference hall, Xia Zu sat at the head, as stable as Mount Tai, faintly showing the attitude of a winner.

Jingle Bell!

  Suddenly, a burst of rapid phone ringing suddenly rang in the hall, forcibly interrupting the atmosphere created just now.

  Everyone moved their eyes and followed the voice, all looked towards Xia Xuan on the left.

   Xia Xuan took out his mobile phone from his pocket, glanced at the phone number displayed on the screen, and his eyes froze slightly.

  He raised his head, and immediately prepared to say something to Xia Zu.

  However, Xia Zu already knew his meaning from his subtle movements, hummed lightly, and waved his hands casually.

   Seeing this, Xia Xuan stopped hesitating immediately, and quickly walked to a corner with the phone in his hand, connected the phone and put it next to his ear.

  After a brief conversation, he walked quickly to Xia Zu's side with a solemn expression, and leaned over to listen to him.

  Everyone around the long table looked at the two curiously, wanting to know what kind of news the phone call just brought could make Xia Xuan put on such an appearance.

   Unfortunately, they were unable to analyze any useful information from Xia Zu's facial expressions.

  Xia Zu's eyes flickered for a moment, and then there was no change.

  It wasn't until the end of ear attachment that Xia Xuan stood up that he said lightly:

   "This is the end of today's discussion, you wait for your own business."

  Hearing this, everyone was extremely curious, but Xia Zu had spoken like this, and they had no choice but to leave one by one regretfully.

   In less than half a minute, there were only three people left in the chamber.

  Besides Xia Zu and Xia Xuan, there was also that thin old man with gray hair, Xia Dongfang.

   "What happened?" Xia Dongfang asked doubtfully.

   "Second Uncle, I just got the news from the people below that Kong Ying and Huang Ye died, and they died in the Camellia Tavern." Xia Zu replied with a slight frown.

  As soon as these words came out, Xia Dongfang's face changed suddenly, and he said in surprise: "Dead? How is it possible? Huang Ye is a fifth-level S-level awakener. He is powerful and stable..."

"indeed so."

  Xia Zu interrupted him, and then Xia Xuan gave a detailed account of what happened.

   After Xia Dongfang listened, he stood there without saying a word for a long time.

  This news was a bit too shocking for him.

   You know, they just entered the imperial capital this morning... Unexpectedly, Huang Ye and Kong Ying died in the afternoon.

  He didn’t do anything here, and he inexplicably damaged two S-rank awakeners.

  It was as if someone had poured a basin of ice water from a deep well in the cold winter months.

   It took a long time before Xia Dongfang digested the news.

  The fine wrinkles on his face were squeezed together, thoughts kept flashing through his heart, and he said slowly after deliberation:

   "Is it possible that it was the five masters who made the move and gave us a blow?"

   "No way."

  Xia Xuan on the side took up the conversation, shook his head and denied his conjecture.

  I just heard him explain: "The five great families have been aloof for thousands of years, and they are used to arrogance. With our current strength, we are far from being looked down upon by them.

  They will only choose to sit on the sidelines in order to follow up, instead of warning us in such a direct way.

  Besides, according to the battle process described by the following person, there was an extremely dark mist floating in the tavern. This is obviously the opponent's concealment of identity, which is not in line with the usual style of the five families. "

  Xia Xuan has been in the imperial capital for many years, and he has a deep understanding of the five thousand-year-old families.

   Therefore, with his explanation, Xia Dongfang believed most of it in his heart, and he couldn't help nodding his head slowly to show his agreement.

   "But if it wasn't someone from the five great families, who would it be?

   In such a short period of time, Kong Ying and Huang Ye were killed with almost no disturbance. The opponent's strength is probably above the sixth level. "

  Xia Dongfang's face became extremely serious, and he was thinking hard, but he couldn't understand it.

   "Oh! It's so obvious that it's targeting my Gaoling Xia Clan. There's no need to say more about the identity of the enemy, it's already clear." Xia Zu snorted coldly, and suddenly said.

  As soon as these words came out, Xia Dongfang seemed to be enlightened, and his pupils shone brightly.

  He suddenly thought of a very mysterious and powerful unknown force.

  Xia Lin's death, and the explosion of the Taishan mine vein, are inseparably related to the other party.

   It's just that Xia Dongfang really didn't expect that the powerhouses possessed by this mysterious force were much bigger than he had imagined, and there were even S-level awakened people above the sixth level.

  Such forces should not be underestimated!

  Xia Zu, who was sitting upright at the top, could no longer keep calm, and the murderous intent in his brows and eyes almost solidified.

  To be honest, he didn't expect the opponent to be so strong.

  I thought that the fifth-level S-level was already powerful, but who knew that a sixth-level had popped up.

   What's even more frightening is that they haven't found any clues until now.

  The other party seemed to be a **** of death hiding in the darkness, constantly waving the sickle in his hand at the Gaoling Xia family, harvesting the backbone one after another.

   How can Xia Zu remain calm?

   "Second Uncle, have you found anything about the nets that were cast in Gaoling?"

  Hearing this, Xia Dongfang shook his head, let out a long sigh, and said slowly: "The fishing net has been thrown out for many days, but there is not even a shadow of a tadpole caught.

  I have also started to investigate the Xia family's enemies in recent years, but there is still no trace.

   This time, I'm afraid I encountered a hard stubble.

   Now that the enemy is dark and we are clear, the road ahead may not be easy. "

  Xia Dongfang frowned, his eyes full of worry.

  Seeing this, Xia Zu's murderous intent became more and more intense, but it was a pity that he was too weak and had nowhere to use it, which gradually gave birth to a trace of irritability in his calm heart.

   Crash.

  Xia Zu stood up suddenly, his burly tower-like figure cast a shadow on the long table.

  He stared at his own shadow, narrowed his eyes, and slowly ordered: "Pass down the order, order the rest of the people to hide their tracks and keep silent. No one is allowed to act without my order."

  Before the words landed on the ground, a gust of strong wind suddenly blew, and Xia Zu disappeared in place abruptly, without knowing where he was going.

  Only Xia Xuan and Xia Dongfang were left in the conference hall. The two looked at each other, and they both saw the worry in each other's eyes, and...

   Deep helplessness.

   Another big chapter, there is more tonight, I don’t know if it is one chapter or two chapters, everyone should go to bed early and read it tomorrow.

   In short, since I resumed the update recently, it has basically been a big chapter, and my thinking is like a flood breaking a bank.

   Especially today, the hand feels so good that I may have to code until two or three in the morning.
