Chapter 1581 What do you want?
Don’t reach out to hit the smiling person.
The other party's attitude at this time is their attitude towards this matter.
Ling Tian gestured for him to sit down.
After Patriarch Wen sat down, he spoke slowly.
"My name is not important, just think of me as Qiao Huailong."
Patriarch Wen breathed a sigh of relief.
In other words, we can talk.
He carefully chose his words, trying to ask the most crucial questions without angering Ling Tian.
"You came here and replaced Huailong's identity. I wonder... why?"
"What do you think?"
Ling Tian asked back.
Patriarch Wen fell silent.
The other party asked him to speak, obviously testing him.
If he couldn't give Ling Tian a satisfactory answer, then there would be no need to talk further.
So what answer does the other party want?
Does this answer have something to do with Qiao Huailong, or with the identity of the City Lord’s Mansion?
Or maybe it is related to their City Lord’s Mansion, the Qiao family?
Patriarch Wen couldn't be sure.
He really wanted to go back and discuss it with others, but he knew very well that Ling Tian would not agree.
In fact, it wouldn't even give him much time to think.
At this moment, Patriarch Wen suddenly had a flash of inspiration and thought of a perfect answer.
he asked tentatively.
"This... Senior, what did Huailong do that made you so unhappy?"
"Oh, he is indeed a smart man."
Ling Tian chuckled and did not give any face to Ancestor Wen.
His thoughts were immediately exposed.
"You don't need to test me. You really don't know why I came here?"
"Your City Lord's Mansion... is very well hidden."
Hidden away?
What's hidden?
Patriarch Wen thought quickly.
There are many secrets in the City Lord's Mansion, but most of them are understandable even if they are known by others.
The rest has little to do with keeping it secret.
The only one involved...
Ancestor Wen's heart moved and the answer came out of his mouth.
"The hidden strength of the City Lord's Mansion!"
Whether it is the City Lord’s Mansion or other major families.
They will secretly cultivate power.
After all, things that are put out in the open are easy to be targeted.
Only those hidden in the dark can be considered as real strength, or in other words, trump cards!
But what does this trump card have to do with this person's purpose?
The other party can't stand the fact that the City Lord's Mansion, the Qiao family, is too powerful, so they plan to weaken them?
There's no need to pretend to be Qiao Huailong.
If he really wants to attack the City Lord's Mansion, how many people can stop him?
But besides this, what else is there?
Could it be...
Patriarch Wen seemed to have thought of something and his expression suddenly changed.
He had only heard about the incident vaguely and had no idea of the specific circumstances. He only heard that it was planned by the most powerful ancestor and Qiao Huailong.
Since it didn't affect him, he didn't pay too much attention to it.
Could it be that the other party came here just for this matter?
Patriarch Wen gritted his teeth and prepared to give it a try.
"Senior, are you here to ask about your state of mind?"
It is correct to say that the state of mind and the channel are closely related.
Ling Tian glanced at Patriarch Wen, it seemed that the other party didn't know much about this matter. He nodded, pretending to be profound.
"good."
really!
But since it was for this matter, it meant that the other party had no ill will towards their City Lord's Mansion, the Qiao family.
Patriarch Wen breathed a sigh of relief, and his tone became much lighter.
"Senior, we really don't know about this matter."
"It's just that Huailong mentioned it to us at the beginning."
"We felt it was unreliable, so we never asked about it again."
This answer should be okay, right?
As soon as Patriarch Wen had this thought, a powerful pressure suddenly descended upon him. Patriarch Wen's face turned pale and he was almost crushed to the ground.
He gritted his teeth and pretended to be confused.
"Senior, what does this mean?"
"Lie to me, I think you are courting death!"
Ling Tian raised his hand and slapped Patriarch Wen on the head.
Patriarch Wen wanted to hide, but he couldn't move at all. The powerful pressure pinned him to the spot.
There was no desire to resist.
Just as he was about to die on the spot, a rapid and violent shout came from outside.
"Wait a minute!"
A figure rushed in.
Under Ling Tian's pressure, the man still acted as usual.
He first pulled Patriarch Wen away, then bowed to Ling Tian and apologized.
"Senior, my nephew doesn't know etiquette and offended you. Please don't take it to heart."
Although it was an apology, the attitude of the person who came was very tough.
Ling Tian's gaze fell on the visitor.
The man had a head full of silver hair, but there was not a single wrinkle on his face.
His complexion is rosy, and it is a bit of an exaggeration to say that he has a youthful face despite his white hair
But just looking at this face, one would definitely think that the other person is only in his thirties.
His attitude was neither humble nor arrogant, and his eyes were calm.
Even though she was bending over, her temperament was not diminished in the slightest.
Ling Tian already had a guess about who was coming, but he still asked.
"Who are you?"
"Qiao family, Qiao Wanxing."
The man straightened up and looked into Ling Tian's eyes.
There was no fear at all.
Ling Tian narrowed his eyes slightly.
He had already sensed this man's presence, but since the other party didn't show up, he didn't point it out.
After all, he is a guy stronger than Qiao Huailong.
It would be best if we could avoid resorting to violence.
Having just experienced a great battle, he also needs to rest.
But if the other party wants to take action, he is not afraid!
"About the passage, you know."
Ling Tian used a declarative sentence.
Qiao Wanxing did not deny it. He waved at Patriarch Wen. Patriarch Wen bowed and stepped back, closing the door.
There was no use for Ling Tian to greet him.
Qiao Wanxing sat down in front of Ling Tian.
He spoke to himself.
"Huailong reported to me earlier that he had encountered a strong enemy."
"But he wasn't worried."
"According to what he said, he didn't have a weapon at hand at the time, otherwise he would not have let the man get away."
"Huailong never lies, and he never takes liberties."
"I didn't intervene and let him solve it on his own."
"But he didn't expect that the person he was waiting for in the future would be you."
"And your strength is far beyond what he can handle."
"By the time I knew it, it was already too late."
Qiao Wanxing just narrated the incident calmly, and didn't seem to be sad about Qiao Huailong's death.
He paused and asked Ling Tian.
"If I'm not mistaken, the person he met that day was you?"
"good."
Ling Tian did not deny it.
Qiao Wanxing asked again.
"What is your relationship with the Qiao family?"
"If I say no, will you believe me?"
Of course not.
Qiao Wanxing is not Qiao Huailong. Even if there is no evidence, as long as he has doubts, he will definitely think the answer is yes.
But he didn't understand where the Qiao family found such a strong man.
Even Huailong could die at the hands of the other party.
Even if he took action, he might not be sure of winning.
So, we can only talk.
If the other party is willing to take a step back, that would be the best. If not...
The Qiao family of the City Lord's Mansion is afraid that a disaster is about to happen.
Qiao Wanxing closed his eyes and pondered for a long time. When he opened his eyes again, he had made a decision.
He looked directly at Ling Tian and asked slowly.
"What do you want?"
