Chapter 549: Chapter 253: Auspicious Grand Opening, Killing Intent Arises, Shadow Sect

And slaughter the Fu Clan members on the treasure ship.

This way, the Fu family’s fate will be suppressed.

Wanting to rebound would then be an unknown wait, and by that time, it would be the Gongsun family’s perfect opportunity to strike.

...

After the Fu Family’s Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion opened for business.

The Liuu Family in Taiyun County also received the news.

The Liuu Clan Leader paced back and forth in the cave mansion, muttering to himself:

"What kind of methods did the Fu family use to make the Tang Family transfer the Cloud Dragon Marketplace store?"

Thinking about the opening day.

The Tang Family Second Elder even attended.

He felt inexplicably uneasy.

The Liuu family had only married off a daughter to Third Young Master Tang as a concubine, and they hadn’t even met the Tang Family’s lowest Foundation Establishment Elder, let alone the Tang Family Second Elder.

Furthermore.

It was heard that Lord Cao of the World Suppression Bureau also supported the Fu family on the opening day.

This...

This Fu family doesn’t show any mountains or reveal any waters. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

Who would have thought they had such ability!

The Liuu Clan Leader sat back into the Grandmaster’s Chair worriedly: "Forget it, just continue giving the annual tribute to the Fu family."

One cannot twist the arm over the thigh.

However.

Last time, when Liuu Meizhen came to visit.

He didn’t show her any good face, unsure if she held a grudge:

"What is all this!"

The Liuu Clan Leader was troubled and agitated.

He thought that after Foundation Establishment and connecting with the Eighth-Grade Tang Family, the Liuu family would be able to fly free and escape the Fu family’s control, but now it seems like it’s still a distant dream.

However.

The Liuu Clan Leader pondered over the last words Liuu Meizhen said that day.

He vaguely felt like he might have overlooked something.

.....

The Gongsun Clan Leader and Gongsun Qing left the Cloud Dragon Marketplace, and when they reached a deserted place, the Gongsun Clan Leader solemnly said: "Seventh, wait at Qiuyun Mountain for me."

"Patriarch, where are you going?" Gongsun Qing was anxious.

If they didn’t hurry, they might not catch up with the Fu Family Treasure Ship.

The Gongsun Clan Leader glanced around, hesitated for a moment, but quickly transmitted a sound in secret:

"We are unfamiliar with Jingzhou, and the Eighth-Grade Noble Family’s treasure ship travels faster than our magical artifacts. To catch up with the Fu family, we must take shortcuts."

But how to take the shortcut.

They knew nothing of it.

The most crucial thing is, the Gongsun Clan Leader didn’t want any more leaks about the matter: "Additionally, I am seeking a hidden place to contact someone from the Shadow Sect."

"Shadow Sect?!"

Gongsun Qing almost exclaimed.

The organization Shadow Sect is said to have appeared on this land even earlier than the Great Zhou and remains unshaken through several dynasties.

Legend has it.

The founder of the Shadow Sect was a Divinity Transformation True Monarch who ascended, and the Shadow Sect still has contact with the Upper Realm.

Therefore.

The Shadow Sect is extremely mysterious and powerful.

No one knows where its headquarters is located, nor anyone from within it.

Might be an ordinary mortal, or could be an ancestor of a family.

What the outside world knows is.

As long as you pay enough commission, the Shadow Sect will undertake what you desire. In a sense, the Shadow Sect is an assassin organization with a strict hierarchy.

However.

The specifics of how it is organized are unknown to outsiders.

To hire someone from the Shadow Sect, not just anyone can do it, you must have a token from the Shadow Sect.

And the Gongsun Clan Leader happened to have exchanged for one at the Ghost Market, thinking it over and over, using it would be the most secure way to take down the Fu Family Treasure Ship.

Gongsun Qing, after realizing it.

Had a bit of excitement and joy on his face: "Patriarch, with the help of the Shadow Sect, this time the ambush on the Fu Family Treasure Ship will surely be a great success!"

Having suffered losses multiple times at the hands of the Fu family.

Finally, it was their turn to collect interest.

Gongsun Qing watched as the Gongsun Clan Leader departed, already fantasizing about killing the Fu’s Foundation Establishment, bringing back the treasure ship to the clan, and the other elders cheering, while the Fu family mourned upon hearing the bad news.

The Gongsun Clan Leader reached a deserted place, waved his sleeve, dropped a few array flags, set up an array, and then carefully took out a dark red box.
