The almighty little junior sister who traveled through time changed her fate against the will of hea

Qiming returned to the city lord's mansion and informed the city lord Qi Sheng of what happened at the Qian family. During the conversation in the dense forest, he also learned that Yun Duo and Han Shu were both disciples of the Lingyun Sect, and he did not hide the matter.

Qi Sheng sneered upon hearing this.

"The glory of the Qian family has finally come to an end. It's time for the things they owe the Han family to return to their original owners."

Qiming was confused when he heard this. The fight between the Qian family and the Han family didn't start in the past two years. How could he listen to his father's intention? There seemed to be other internal affairs between the two families.

Seeing that Qi Sheng didn't look like he was trying to hide something, he tentatively spoke.

"What my father means is that the tit-for-tat confrontation between the Qian and Han families is not just what the rumors say."

Qi Sheng looked at Qi Ming. His son had always been smart. Sooner or later, the Scarlet Flame City would be handed over to him, and it was time for him to know the intricate relationship between the several major families.

"Two hundred years ago, there were ten aristocratic families in Scarlet Flame City, headed by the Han family, followed by Qian, Wang, Cao, Chen, Fu, He, Xu, Du, and Zhang.

Two hundred years ago, the demonic cultivators invaded and tried to occupy Red Flame City. The ancestors of the Han family gathered the other nine major families to drive the demonic cultivators out of the city.

For this reason, the Han family became famous in Scarlet Flame City, leaving the other nine aristocratic families behind.

The Han family also had a good reputation for their hard work, and other aristocratic families were naturally unwilling to do so. But at that time, the Han family was in the limelight and no one wanted to offend him.

Until the ancestor of the Qian family learned from somewhere that a secret realm was about to be opened fifty miles away from Scarlet Flame City, he did not keep the news private but instead brought together several other major families to take the initiative to mention the secret realm.

Several family heads knew that the people coming from the Qian family were not good, but they did not want to give up the opportunity in the secret realm, so they were wavering for a while.

The ancestor of the Han family was the first to express his opinion that the Han family himself did not want to participate in the secret realm.

He knew that the Han family should stay away from its sharp edges now. If they acted in a high-profile manner, they would probably become a thorn in the side of the entire Scarlet Flame City family.

The Han family is willing to withdraw, but some people are not happy with it.

The four family heads Qian, Wang, Cao and Chen looked at each other and said.

"Our top ten aristocratic families have always been on equal footing and have not been divided into top and bottom. How about taking this opportunity for the children of the Secret Realm family to gain some experience and also be ranked among the families. I wonder what you think."

What the ancestor of the Qian family said was somewhat true. He had won a lot of support from the family, so the Han family had no choice but to bite the bullet.

Unexpectedly, the Secret Realm group almost wiped out the entire elite of the Han family, and the children who died narrowly escaped death, which greatly damaged the vitality of the Han family.

Several other major families also suffered casualties. The four families of Qian, Wang, Cao, and Chen suffered losses of only 20%, while the five families of Fu, He, Xu, Du, and Zhang suffered losses of nearly 60%.

No one would believe it if there was no foul play, but there is no evidence to prove that the four Qian and Chen families colluded.

The disciples who entered the secret realm suffered heavy casualties, and the matter of ranking was temporarily shelved.

Unexpectedly, not two months after the incident in the secret realm, the ancestor of the Han family was attacked by a demon cultivator while he was out training and died on the spot.

The Han family, which was originally severely weakened, was completely thrown into chaos due to the death of their ancestor. When they were in glory, no one dared to mess with them. Nowadays, many people who are down and out come and step on them.

The Han family fell from being the head of the aristocratic family to a street rat that everyone yelled at overnight.

Cultivation resources and industrial shops were competed by various forces, and they were suppressed everywhere. In just a few years, they fell from a first-rate family to a third-rate family.

Over time, the Han family was forgotten. If Han Shu had not entered Lingyun Sect and became an inner disciple, I am afraid that the Han family would not be remembered by everyone.

After the Han family fell into decline, the five aristocratic families, Fu, He, Xu, Du, and Zhang, also fell from a first-rate aristocratic family to a second-rate aristocratic family due to heavy casualties among their elite children.

The Qian and Chen families robbed the Han family of their property and cultivation resources, leaving the other six major families behind and firmly occupying the throne of the first-class family.

The Qian family ranks first among the four great families.

It had only been a hundred years since Qi Sheng became the Lord of Scarlet Flame City. The Han family had already been defeated when he came. He only learned this information after repeated inquiries.

"Father, you suspect that the Han family's defeat was caused by the Qian Mansion."

Qiming thought about what Qisheng said that the glory of the Qian family should be returned to its original owner, and he couldn't help but ask the doubts in his heart.

"My father has no way of knowing what happened in the secret realm, but the Qian family is definitely not clean when the ancestor of the Han family was attacked by a demon cultivator outside the city."

If you don't want others to know, you have to do nothing yourself. Qi Sheng found out that the ancestor of the Han family was out, which was the news sent by the Qian family to the demon cultivator.

"Father, you are saying that the Qian family and the demon cultivators have colluded for a long time."

Qi Ming couldn't help but sit up from his stool. No wonder he said that the Qian family was colluding with the demon cultivator. His father didn't have a look of surprise on his face. It turned out that he had known it for a long time.

"The Qian family's appetite has grown bigger and bigger over the years. The head of the family has long been unable to satisfy their ambitions. My father has been waiting for them to lose control of their anger. It's time to clean up the smoky atmosphere in Red Flame City."

The Qian family and Mo Xiu always thought that their plan was perfect, but they didn't know that what they did was already under Qi Sheng's control.

When Qi Ming saw that his father had already made arrangements, he felt relieved.

Qi Sheng told him a few more words not to act rashly before letting him leave.

Yun Duo and Han Shu also returned to Han's house. Not long after they sat down, they heard the sound of a fortune-telling sound.

"Master, master, I found out why the Han family hates demon cultivators so much."

As soon as its voice fell, I felt that something was wrong in the atmosphere.

It looked up at Yun Duo and saw Han Shu sitting next to her.

Zhaocai smiled awkwardly and danced in front of the real owner. What could be more social than this?

"Hehe...I didn't say anything about that!"

It would be better not to say anything to cover up the truth.

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Yunduo's face, but she firmly believed that as long as she was not embarrassed, others would be embarrassed.

"Ahem, we are just curious, not intentionally trying to find out the secrets of the Han family."

Han Shu glanced at Zhaocai and knew it was Yun Duo's contracted beast.

"It's okay, it's just that my ancestors were killed by demonic cultivators a hundred years ago, so I feel resentful."

Han Shu's tone was sparse and normal. If it weren't for the murderous intent hidden in his eyes that betrayed his mood, one would have thought he was relieved.

Yun Duo looked at Zhaocai. He nodded and then shook his head. It seemed that things were not as simple as Han Shu said.

Since he didn't want to talk more, Yun Duo didn't ask any more questions, and the topic turned to the city lord's palace.

"Qiming's visit to the Qian family today means that the City Lord's Palace has already had doubts about the Qian family. In this case, why didn't the City Lord's Palace take the initiative and instead hold a family competition in an unnecessary way?"

Yun Duo guessed that Qiming should have sneaked into Qian's house more than once, and perhaps the formation in Qian Bao's courtyard was tailor-made for him.

If Han Shu was a young man who was inexperienced in the world before, what happened to the Han family and the Qian family during this period made him grow up rapidly. He has long since lost his innocence, and now he can shoulder the responsibility of the family on his own.

"On the surface, the four major families are constantly arguing, but in fact they are just acting. They know that everyone will prosper and lose, so how can they fight among themselves at this critical moment."

"Acting? Who are you acting for?"

"Of course it's for the city lord to see."

"Why?"

"Disturbing the view of the city lord's palace will facilitate the Qian family's secret arrangements."

"You mean to say that the Qian family's delusional plan to replace the city lord is known to the other three major aristocratic families?"

Yunduo's voice couldn't help but gradually get louder.

"Otherwise, why do you think it was such a coincidence that the three major aristocratic families attacked the Qian family, and then the city lord's palace ordered a family competition. They deliberately made the matter bigger, so that after the city lord's palace expressed its stance, they would look for opportunities to annihilate the city lord's palace. "

"Since you can clearly see the tricks of the Qian and Chen families, it's impossible for the city lord to not be able to see clearly. What's the point of the Qian family doing this?"

Yun Duo looked confused.

"The Qian family is gambling. The ancestor of the Qian family has now reached the middle stage of divine transformation, while the city lord is only in the early stage of transformation. Coupled with the help of demon cultivators and other three major families, the Qian family feels that they will not lose, but they just lack a chance to win. The City Lord’s Mansion has everything in one go, and the competition is the best opportunity.”

The sarcasm in Han Shu's tone when he mentioned the Qian family was self-evident, and he almost said that the Qian family was too whimsical.

After listening to what Han Shu said, Yun Duo realized that his vision was indeed short-sighted.

She originally thought that the disappearance of the spiritual veins caused a gap between the four major families, but she did not expect that the spiritual veins were just the icing on the cake, and their plans were one link after another.

Sure enough, there was an undercurrent of struggle between the big families, which a mere mortal like her could not understand.

Now that Qiming has heard about the Qian family's plan to come to the City Lord's Mansion, he will be more cautious about his arrangements.

Han Shu originally wanted to ask Yun Duo if he had any news from the Qian family, but then he heard someone came to report that the head of the Han family had invited him to go to the study.

Han Shu had no choice but to leave first.

As soon as he walked away with his front foot, his back foot jumped onto the table.

"I finally left. I almost suffocated the young man to death."

Seeing its anxious look, Yun Duo did not stop it.

It took Qi Sheng several years to find out what happened to the Qian and Han families, as well as the fact that the ancestor of the Han family was secretly attacked and assassinated by a demon cultivator.

It took Zhaocai less than a day to get the information that was clearer and more comprehensive than him.

Zhaocai found a person in the secret room of Han Mansion. That person was in the late stage of foundation building. He was now gray-haired and his life was approaching.

There was still a faint layer of demonic energy permeating the man's Dantian. If the Han family hadn't used heavenly materials and earthly treasures to suppress the chaotic flow of demonic energy, the man would have been invaded by the demonic energy, and I'm afraid he would just be a corpse now.

Zhaocai placed the meat pad between the person's eyebrows, and a memory belonging to that person was released.

This man's name is Han Xuan, a rare genius child of the Han family. One hundred and fifty years ago, the elite children of the ten most aristocratic families entered the secret realm, and he was among them.

Of the fifteen members of the Han family who entered the secret realm, only two came out alive. One of them vomited blood and died as soon as he arrived, making him the only surviving member.

However, his consciousness was eroded by the demonic energy, and the demonic energy in his body was rushing around, causing his consciousness to be in a trance. The head of the Han family wanted to ask him what happened in the secret realm and why the Han family's children were almost wiped out.

Han Xuan's memory was confused. Whenever he mentioned things in the secret realm, he would have a splitting headache and twitch all over.

The head of the Han family had no choice but to place him in a secret room, where he stayed for more than a hundred years.

Han Xuan was restrained in his body, and once he mentioned the secret realm, he would be attacked by demonic energy, and life would be worse than death.

After breaking through in the cultivation of wealth, he opened up new talents after escaping from the earth.

Just place your palm between the other person's eyebrows and it can read the other person's memory.

Reveal the secrets hidden deep in the other person's heart.

It turns out that the so-called secret realm is not a paradise, but a trap used by the Qian family and the demon cultivator to deal with the Han family.

After they entered the secret realm, there were not only the children of the top ten aristocratic families, but also many demon cultivators waiting in the secret realm.

The Qian and Chen families and the demon cultivator teamed up to deal with the Han family and the other five major families.

It was impossible for them to kill all the children of the six aristocratic families who entered the secret realm, so the demon cultivators used secret methods to put restrictions in the bodies of the surviving children of the six aristocratic families. Once the secret realm was mentioned, they would be in agony.

Unless the demonic energy in their bodies is eliminated and the restrictions are lifted, they will be like a living dead, and their cultivation will remain stagnant.

This is also why although 40% of the children of the other five major families survive, their strength has fallen to the second-rate families.

After listening to what Zhao Cai said, Yun Duo gained another layer of understanding of the Qian family's unscrupulous and ruthless behavior.

I thought the matter would end here, but I didn't expect Zhaocai to continue.

It was not an accident that the ancestor of the Han family would leave the city on the day when the demon cultivators attacked him.

Han Xuan has been in a state of confusion since he came out of the secret realm. The ancestor of the Han family tried every means to help him regain his consciousness, but there was no progress.

Until one day, his jade slip suddenly lit up, and someone told him that Han Xuan's confusion was caused by the demonic energy flowing around his body, and asked him to meet at the city gate the next day. He had a way to eliminate the demonic energy.

The ancestor of the Han family wanted to refuse, but he was very confident in his words and explained Han Xuan's symptoms clearly.

The ancestor of the Han family knew that this was his last chance. Even if he knew that there were tigers in the mountains, he would still go to the Tiger Mountains.

Unexpectedly, he would be killed in the encirclement and suppression of demon cultivators once he left.

The demon cultivator looked at the tragic death of the ancestor of the Han family, and joy flashed in his eyes. If he hadn't led other families to resist, Scarlet Flame City would be their demon cultivator's world now.

He deserves to die...

After a search for wealth, it was revealed that the information on the jade slip of the ancestor of the Han family was sent by the Qian family.

It was also the Qian family who lured the ancestor of the Han family to go outside the city.

The Qian family can achieve today's glory only by stepping on the bones of the Han family.

Zhaocai was so sad that he didn't expect that he was just about to find out what the Han family had to do with the demon cultivator. Unexpectedly, after peeling off the cocoon, he discovered that although the Qian family didn't show up, there were traces of him everywhere.

Looking at Zhaocai's expression, Yunduo finally understood why it couldn't help but eager to tell itself the news it had received.

The Qian family and Mo Xiu had colluded together more than a hundred years ago, and they were really well hidden.

If there is still a Qian family in Scarlet Flame City after the competition, she will definitely report what happened here to the sect, and the Qian family must pay the price for their actions.

Yun Duo thought of Han Shu gritting his teeth when he mentioned Mo Xiu and his disdain when he mentioned the Qian family, so he guessed that he didn't know that the Qian family and Mo Xiu had colluded more than a hundred years ago.

It seems like I need to find some time to give him a heads up.

"The disciple who is locked up in the secret room can still be saved."

If it can be saved, what he said may be more credible. After all, he has personally experienced the secret realm.

If Yun Duo tells what happened in the secret realm, no one will believe her, and the Qian family may come back to bite her.

"It can be saved, but it requires a lot of spiritual power and spiritual plants."

At this time, Yun Duo didn't know how much heaven and earth treasures he had spent to save him with just one sentence.
