Chapter 369 The situation of the Duanmu family
After hearing Qin Shuangyan's words, Lu Yang didn't expect that her hatred for the Duanmu family would be so deep.
Not only did they want to kill Duanmu Hongtu, who directly ordered her father to be killed, but they also wanted to eliminate the entire Duanmu family...
But the Duanmu family is now a huge monster, and it is not easy to overthrow it with all their might.
"I know with my own strength, it is difficult to deal with the entire Duanmu family..."
Qin Shuangyan said again: "That is why I have to find a way to become a senior executive of the Duanmu family. Only by becoming the helmsman of this bloody ship of sin can I destroy it with all my might."
Lu Yang nodded gently. He only now knew the real purpose of Qin Shuangyan's entry into the Duanmu family.
"We have a common enemy, so I believe we can cooperate well in the next step, right?"
Qin Shuangyan turned to Lu Yang and said in a teasing tone.
Lu Yang nodded again.
The two looked at each other speechlessly for a moment, then Lu Yang asked, "What's going on with Duanmu Hongtu? It's rumored that he was seriously injured and bedridden, so how could he appear in the ancestral temple?"
"It is true that Duanmu Hongtu's serious injury recurs, but the Duanmu family's Presbyterian Church also concealed some of the situations."
Qin Shuangyan then explained to Lu Yang.
According to her, Duanmu Hongtu did cause an old injury to occur during her practice, and the situation was quite serious.
The incident happened suddenly, and whether this matter was protected or not was spread, which became a well-known version of the outside world.
But later, the Duanmu family gathered all the alchemists in the domain who were proficient in medical skills to come to treat Duanmu Hongtu.
The prescriptions prescribed by the doctors at that time did stabilize Duanmu Hongtu's injury, but it was only temporary.
In order to heal the injury, Duanmu Hongtu brought the spiritual pill that he bought with a lot of money to go to a secret place for conditioning.
And even the Presbyterian Church doesn't know where this secret is.
According to the consensus of the doctors at that time, Duanmu Hongtu took the spiritual pill and nourished a large amount of spiritual energy in the "treasure land", most of the injuries should be cured soon.
But I don’t know what happened. Duanmu Hongtu went to the secret place to order, but never came back.
When Lu Yang heard this, he interrupted and said, "It's probably because someone has done something secretly."
Qin Shuangyan smiled back and said, "The Duanmu family thought so at that time, so they also wanted to send someone to find Duanmu Hongtu, but no one knew his whereabouts, so the matter was put on hold."
"Actually, not everyone in the Duanmu family really wants to save Duanmu Hongtu... Although this head of the family has a high status in the family, it is not very popular."
Qin Shuangyan explained: "Duanmu Hongtu is someone who can even kill his own brother. He has a cruel personality. He was safe in the past, so naturally no one dared to disobey him. But once something happened, it would inevitably fall and everyone pushed him. Moreover, in the Presbyterian Church, many close relatives were harmed by Duanmu Hongtu because of the internal purge twenty years ago."
Although the elders did not oppose the extermination of members loyal to the royal family at that time, and some even actively helped, as time went by, people had long forgotten their madness at the beginning, but still remembered the ruthlessness of Duanmu Xiong in this incident.
So naturally, they all chose to forget their sins and forgave themselves, and pointed the finger at Duanmu Hongtu, who was extremely outstanding in this matter at that time.
Everyone hated him so much, how could they want to save him? Huaheng Academy
At the same time, the head of the family was seriously ill, which brought some turmoil to the power of the Duanmu family. The elders with ulterior motives also began to think about their own plans. They didn't really care about Duanmu Hongtu's injuries.
Since the death of the Right Elder, the Left Elder monopolized the power when the head of the family was seriously ill. He even promised to save the head of the family on the surface, but in fact he secretly investigated his whereabouts, but in order to eradicate him.
"Later, in order to fight against the Zuo Elder who held great power, the other elders of the Presbyterian Council promoted the selection of the Ten Young Masters. However, since the Ten Young Masters are still young now, the Zuo Elder used this as an excuse to block their replacement seats for the vacant elders."
Qin Shuangyan continued: "But the emergence of the three great princes has brought some changes to the situation of the Duanmu family. The elders in the Presbyterian Church were divided into three factions according to the princes they supported..."
Lu Yang smiled and said, "Including the Left Elder who supports you, there should be four factions."
Qin Shuangyan also smiled and said, "But the other three factions have a consensus, that is, no matter what, Elder Zuo can no longer be put in power, and this is one of the reasons why we are targeted by the other three princes everywhere."
Lu Yang nodded to express his understanding.
"In short, it is the continuous game between factions of all parties that the result of the election of candidates through this competitive battle..."
Qin Shuangyan said meaningfully: "But all forces come with their own plans. There may not be any of them just to participate in the competition battle."
Judging from the current situation, the power of the eldest son and the left elder both guessed that Duanmu Hongtu might be in the ancestral temple and chose the location of the competition battle in the ancestral forest. Maybe it was their claim.
However, the eldest son participated in the competition battle, obviously in order to rescue Duanmu Hongtu in the ancestral temple. The faction behind him should be a faction loyal to the head of the family.
Qin Shuangyan's purpose is also very clear, in order to assassinate Duanmu Hongtu. Among them, Qin Shuangyan herself was to avenge her father, and the left elder behind her was to completely solve this threat... If Duanmu Hongtu recovered, the power in his hands would definitely be affected.
As for the second and third sons, their purpose is still unclear, but who can assert that the visions in the forest of the ancestral land and the beast tides that have been driven have nothing to do with them?
Even Lu Yang himself was looking for opportunities in the ancestral forest to kill Duanmuheng, the deacon who knew his identity.
"This ancestral forest is really a pool of muddy water..."
Lu Yang couldn't help but sigh.
However, looking at his face that was not too nervous, it was difficult for Qin Shuangyan to think that he would be troubled by this situation.
"My goal has been achieved, Mr. Lu?"
Qin Shuangyan stared at Lu Yang and asked. What she pointed out was naturally the killing of Duanmu Heng.
Lu Yang answered without thinking: "As long as Duanmu Heng can be drawn out, it will be no difficult to kill him."
Qin Shuangyan was speechless when she heard Lu Yang speak so easily. After all, the other party was an elder of the Duanmu family. How could he have reached the early stage of the Linghai Realm?
However, thinking that Lu Yang defeated the strength of six spiritual sea-level spirit puppets, Qin Shuangyan could not express any objection to Lu Yang's confidence.
"What are your plans?" Qin Shuangyan asked, "Did you think of how to lure Duanmu Heng out?"
Lu Yang smiled confidently and said, "This is natural."
"How to do it?" Qin Shuangyan couldn't help but feel curious.
"There are many monsters in the ancestral forest. In order to prevent the participants from being injured by monsters after the fierce battle, the Duanmu family asked the eliminated cultivators to wait on the spot, and they sent people to take the eliminated ones out of the ancestral forest..."
