The Ninth Lady is a rebellious person.

Chapter 241 Lang Jiu, that heartless bastard, wanted to kill me to silence me.

Hearing the good news from Gong Qi, Lang Jiuchuan looked at him with kindness and gentleness, as if to say, "You're a good kid, very good."

Gong Qi shuddered, wondering what was up with the person's loving gaze?

"Since your young master is so keen to change the current shortcomings of the Xuanmen sect, he shouldn't miss this opportunity, right?" Lang Jiuchuan smiled kindly.

Gong Qi nodded subconsciously, but quickly glared at her: "What's it to you?"

Lang Jiuchuan didn't blame him for being rebellious, saying, "No destruction, no construction. The Xuan Clan needs to change. They only know how to use the methods of powerful families to consolidate their status and power, but they don't know how to improve their cultivation. This is putting the cart before the horse and will only lead to nothing in the end. Not to mention that spiritual energy is scarce now, and cultivation is already difficult. If they still don't strive for progress, they will be harmed by demons and monsters sooner or later."

There are demons and ghosts in the world, but they are well hidden. They are focused on cultivation, and their demonic power is greatly enhanced. How could they not defeat the Celestial Master?

Lang Jiuchuan thought of the ghosts in Tongtian Pavilion. Among the Xuan Clan members who came and went, how many could tell that the ghosts were just paper figures? How powerful must the Pavilion Master be to keep the ghosts from being exposed?

There are mountains beyond mountains, but the Xuan Clan couldn't see that and was complacent, thinking they were the strongest in the world.

Gong Qi said, "Young Master will make this happen."

Lang Jiuchuan was not surprised. Gong Tinglan was a smart woman who knew how to fight for her life.

"Your young master is a man of action. In your opinion, how long will it take for this matter to succeed?"

Gong Qi said lazily, "It's easy to establish a system, but deciding who to place inside is something to contend for."

The royal family, not wanting to see other clans grow stronger and threaten their own position, would certainly be cautious. The people they would place in the Surveillance Department would definitely be capable and skilled in combat. Calling them officials is probably not the case, since their 'colleagues' here are skilled in mystical arts. Simply having ordinary people in there would not be enough to control the mystical clan.

The Xuan Clan, not wanting to be restricted or hampered at every turn, will ensure that the person they place in this department is not incompetent, thus turning this into a conflict between the royal family and the Xuan Clan.

Lang Jiuchuan raised an eyebrow and said, "It seems that the royal family and the Xuan family will have a chance to compete in the future."

Gong Qi glanced at her: "Why do I hear schadenfreude in your tone?"

"You heard me right, I'm happy to see it happen."

Gong Qi narrowed his eyes: "Did the Xuan Clan offend you to make you so hostile? You wish we could split apart."

"If I have a grudge against the Xuan Clan, would you like to kill me first?"

The two locked eyes, sparks seemingly flying between them.

Gong Qi looked away and said, "Although you are rebellious, you are not the type to take your anger out on the innocent. You have a grudge against someone and a debt to settle. If you have a grudge against someone, go find that person."

I'm not tired of living, why would I go looking for you to fight when I can't beat you?

Lang Jiuchuan smiled, looked at Gong Qi, and suddenly thought of the founding of Da Dan. It was the Xuan Clan that rose up in response to the situation. Bagua City was the first place they went to reclaim and rebuild after the rise of the clan. Did he know about the situation of Bagua City?
Since she happened to be going to that place, she might as well take him along.

"Since we have nothing better to do, and the world is so vast, why don't we travel around Dadan together?" Lang Jiuchuan invited with a smile.

Gong Qi: "?"

The topic changed too quickly; he didn't understand. What was she going to do?
Oh, a tour of Dadan, the kind that involves taking the ghostly route!

Gong Qi soon followed a troublesome, weak woman to the desolate desert. The yellow sand and dust covered his face, and he ate a couple of bites without any precautions.

He watched with a heavy heart as the unfortunate man, captured to lead the way and never to return, hurriedly jumped into the underworld. He wanted to say, "Don't go, take me with you!" Lang Jiuchuan looked at the tall, ancient, and mottled city wall before her, and it overlapped with a scene she had once witnessed at Fu Qi's place. It was as if she could see thousands of soldiers lighting fires and running past her, charging headlong into the enemy ranks without hesitation.

Her eyes turned bloodshot.

Lang Jiuchuan brought Fu Qi out of the Little Nine Tower.

Gong Qi happened to see the small nine-towered pagoda, and her eyelids twitched. The Vajra Pagoda, no, she called it the small nine-towered pagoda.

Soon, he couldn't think about whether the Little Nine Towers were the Vajra Tower or not, because he saw a wisp of a ghost float out of the tower. His expression immediately turned serious, and he subconsciously gripped the Soul-Locking Whip at his waist.

As soon as Fu Qi came out, he looked at the top of the city gate. The words "Yuancheng" used to be written here, but now they have been replaced by the three deep characters "Baguacheng".

Two hundred years have passed, and this city wall and gate have also been weathered by time.

Returning to this familiar place, I let out a sigh.

Gong Qi stared intently at Fu Qi, coughed heavily twice, and only when Lang Jiuchuan looked over did he frantically wink and silently ask, "Who is this?"

"This is General Fu Qi," Lang Jiuchuan introduced simply, "The general is the first customer of my shop. I was invited by him to help him with his request."

Shop? What kind of shop?
Gong Qi was completely confused.

Fu Qi turned his head and looked over, his eyes becoming sharp and fierce. He had already introduced Gong Qi to him inside the tower. Gong Qi was a member of the Xuan Clan, and this Bagua City might be the work of the Xuan Clan. If he and the three thousand Fu family soldiers could not be reborn and were harmed by them, then this debt would have to be settled properly!

His murderous aura was not abated, and Gong Qi's hair stood on end. He was on high alert, tightly gripping his magic weapon, and glanced at Lang Jiuchuan again.

She said she had a grudge against the Xuan clan. Could it be that she's going to use him as a scapegoat and drag him all this way to kill him to silence him?

Great!
Lang Jiuchuan understood the meaning in his eyes, rolled his eyes in annoyance, and said, "Da Dan has been established for two hundred years. It was the rise of the Xuan Clan that made Tantai the ruler. As far as I know, this Bagua City was the first one to be rebuilt after the Xuan Clan recovered the lost territory. Do you know who did it?"

Gong Qi was taken aback. Da Dan had been established for two hundred years, and Tantai had been the ruler of this land for quite some time. But all of this happened two hundred years ago. Why was she asking about this?
He looked at the Bagua City, his mind automatically filtering through the books and historical records he had read, and said, "The reconstruction of this Bagua City was advocated and planned by Tantai Jing, the ancestor of the Tantai clan. What's wrong with that?"

It was truly built by the Tantai clan.

Fu Qi's malevolent aura emanated continuously from his body, thick and black, making Gong Qi tremble with fear. Could this old ghost be about to turn into a ghost king?

Yes, Old Ghost, he had already realized that the armor on Fu Qi's body was not the armor of the current dynasty, but very ancient. That was Old Ghost from many years ago.

However, General Fuqi, that name sounds familiar. Where have I heard it before?

The surname is Fu...

Gong Qi looked at the Bagua City, his memory flashing back. Wait, this is the Bagua City, but its predecessor was the Fenghuo Pass Yuan City of the previous dynasty.
Lang Jiuchuan brought this person here, which suggests a return to familiar territory.

He remembered.

"Are you Fuqi, the traitorous general of the previous dynasty who ruined the country?" Gong Qi's eyes widened.

Lang Jiuchuan's eyelids twitched. This brat is asking for a beating!
Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, Fu Qi, who was enveloped in a sinister aura, was furious and grabbed his throat in the blink of an eye.

Gong Qi: "!"

Lang Jiu, that heartless bastard, really wants to have the ghost kill him to silence him!
