The Rise of the Shen Family

Chapter 717: Third Master Qi

After coming out of the Sanxiu Alliance headquarters, Shen Ruiling immediately returned to [Chaohai Casino], and Shen Yongxuan, who was following the blue-robed man before, also happened to return to the casino.

In the room on the second floor, Shen Ruiling looked directly at Shen Yongxuan who had just returned and asked:

How's the situation, have you found anything?

Reporting to Uncle Wu, that person was very cautious along the way. After leaving the gambling house, he went to the East City for a stroll, and finally walked into [Mantuo Tea House].

Due to the particularity of [Mantuo Tea House], my nephew couldn't follow in, so I had to rush back to report!

Facing the former's inquiry, Shen Yongxuan immediately began to report.

Hearing this, Shen Ruiling couldn't help being slightly taken aback, and murmured in a puzzled way:

Manduo Tea House?

This [Mantuo Mountain Villa] is the most famous place in Shanghai for tea tasting and Taoism. Those who can enter are rich and noble people with heads and faces. Generally, others cannot enter.

At this moment, Yu Zhenmin at the side immediately opened his mouth to explain to Shen Ruiling.

According to rumors, the owner behind [Manluo Tea House] is the famous third master Qi

Master Qi

Hearing this, a thoughtful look flashed in Shen Ruiling's eyes, and some well-known information about this third master Qi immediately appeared in his mind.

Third Master Qi, formerly known as Qi Wenhan, was the third disciple of the late Jindan Daoist surnamed Li of the Loose Cultivation Alliance.

Li Zhen accepted a total of five disciples during his lifetime, but the second and fourth disciples have long since passed away, and the surviving eldest disciple, third disciple and fifth disciple are all well-known figures in Shanghai.

Compared with the other two senior brothers, Qi Wenhan has a deeper city and stronger methods. He is best at managing power and winning people's hearts.

When Li Zhenren was still alive, Qi Wenhan was almost in charge of his power and property, which made him have a huge influence in the entire Shanghai Workshop.

Master Qi

Shen Ruiling couldn't help murmuring once again, a strange color burst out from his deep eyes, and he looked at Shen Yongxuan in front of him and asked:

If I remember correctly, the [Chaohai Casino] was the property managed by the third master Qi, right?

Reporting to Uncle Fifth, it is true!

It has been more than half a year since Shen Yongxuan was sent to Shanghai Shangfang, and he has a basic understanding of the power distribution and some information in Shanghai Shangfang.

Originally [Chaohai Gambling Square] and [Zuixiao Tower] were properties managed by this third master Qi, and even the shops on this entire street belonged to him.

After hearing this, Shen Ruiling nodded slightly, as if trying to understand something.

Originally, Li Zhenren, as the Jindan Daoist who sits in Shanghai, must have a lot of industries, even higher than the other two Jindan Daoist.

But with his fall, the property in his hands was directly divided among the Ouyang family, Granny Jinhua and her disciples and grandchildren.

But obviously these two families didn't divide up all the fat. In order to win over the newly rising Shen family, they took part of it.

And in order to stabilize the three disciples of Master Li and some of the casual cultivators who were still attached to them, a small part was reserved for the former, which was a pretense.

From the looks of it now, those disciples of Master Li were clearly dissatisfied with the gangster-like carve-up by the Shen family and the other two Golden Core forces, and they even held a grudge.

It was only because his Shen family's foundation was shallow and he hadn't established a firm foothold in Shanghai Fang that he was retaliated and provoked by this third master Qi.

Of course, not only Shen Ruiling, but Shen Yongxuan and Yu Zhenmin also wanted to understand.

So, the third master Qi sent someone to trouble the family on purpose.

Yu Zhenmin slowly opened his mouth thoughtfully.

It's just that now that Master Li has fallen, why does the other party dare to act so boldly?

It's nothing more than deceiving me that the Shen family has not yet established a firm foothold in this Shanghai where dragons and snakes are mixed, so they dare to send people to make trouble secretly.

Shen Ruiling couldn't help but snorted coldly, and then her sword eyebrows frowned slightly, and she began to think silently in her heart.

It has only been half a year since the family entered Shanghai Shangfang, and it has not yet established a firm foothold in Shanghai Fang, but the other party is completely different. After hundreds of years of operating in this huge and mixed Shanghai Fang, behind the scenes The various relationships and forces here have already been deeply rooted.

Even the Ouyang family, Jinhua mother-in-law and others were unable to take back all the rights of Shanghai Shangfang from Li Zhenren's family in a short period of time.

It was also because of this that although Shen Ruiling now knew that the other party was targeting the family, but without complete evidence, he could not rashly attack this third master Qi.

After all, the other party is still a high-level executive of the Loose Cultivator Alliance, and he still holds the power of Shanghai Shangfang in his hands, and even wins the hearts of most of the casual cultivators in Shanghai Shangfang.

If it is not handled properly, the entire Shanghai Shangfang and Sanxiu Alliance will regard the Shen family as their enemies!

The auction held by the family this time is of great importance. We have to prevent the Third Master Qi from doing something secretly again. We must send someone to keep an eye on him.

After hearing this, Shen Yongxuan immediately bowed his hands and agreed:

Uncle Wu, let me go!

This kind of monitoring task is definitely not up to ordinary qi-training clansmen. Only clansmen with foundation-building skills can keep an eye on the other side's foundation-building monks.

No, the auction is approaching now, and you still need to contact the casual repair alliance to handle the auction.

Shen Ruiling pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said.

How about I go!

Yu Zhenmin spoke to Shen Ruiling, but the latter still shook his head.

And when Shen Ruiling was worried about this matter, he suddenly noticed the movement downstairs, and a look of satisfaction flashed across his solemn face.

After a while, the door was pushed open, and a young man walked in quickly.

Disciple pays homage to master!

Wearing a green robe, Shen Feng came to Shen Ruiling, bowed his hands and saluted.

Seeing the disciple who came suddenly, Shen Ruiling couldn't help but nodded, and said softly:

It's just in time!

The patriarch is worried that something will happen to the family's auction, so he specially asked his disciples to come!

Apparently, Shen Huanchi also knew that the Shen family's debut this time would not be so easy, and he didn't know how many families and forces had other thoughts.

Now there are four Foundation Establishment monks from the Shen family in Shanghai Fang, and those who can be sent have already been sent, while only Shen Ruizhi and three new Foundation Establishment monks who are still consolidating their cultivation are left on Yunbi Peak.

The arrival of Shen Feng can be said to have relieved Shen Ruiling's urgent need. He immediately sent the former to keep an eye on the man in blue robe who was targeted by the Shen family and [Mantuo Villa], in case the other party targeted the family again.

. . . . . .

As the date of the auction got closer, more and more monks poured into Shanghai Fang. Whether it was the monks from the offshore islands or the monks from the four counties of Qingyun, they rushed to Shanghai Fang one after another.

Due to the influx of a large number of foreign monks, the formerly withered popularity of Shanghai Square became lively again.

The business of the Shen family's [Zuixiaolou] also started to boom, and the originally bleak guest room business has gradually accommodated several Foundation Establishment cultivators who came from other places to participate in the auction.

In the room on the top floor of [Zuixiao Tower], Shen Ruiling was carefully flipping through the auction brochure sent by the casual repair alliance just now, which recorded brief information about the various items in this auction.

Yongxuan, what's the situation in Fangshi now?

After a long time, he looked up at Shen Yongxuan beside him and asked.

Reporting to Uncle Wu, monks from all walks of life are now pouring into Shanghai Shangfang, and the flow of people has doubled compared to before. Even Canglan County in the north has come to a lot of monks.

After hearing this, Shen Ruiling nodded slowly, but frowned slightly.

Are the family monks from the Wuji Sect in Canglan County also here?

Although it is said that Shanghai Shangfang is a well-known Dafang City in the world of cultivating immortals in Lingnan, and it is open to do business with people all over the world. No matter it is a monk from Qingyunmen or Wujizong, they can enter, as long as they follow the rules after entering.

But in this special period, the arrival of the monks of the Promise Sect made him faintly feel some inexplicable worries

Let me ask you today, what will happen at the auction?
