Xu Hao nodded and said: "That's right, back then, Xing Yi and Li Chenggong both became my disciples. They are my named disciples, and Li Chenggong's daughter Niuniu also became my disciple, and she's my direct disciple."
"Then your generational hierarchy is all messed up."
Qin Yao smacked her lips and said, this relationship was simply chaotic, a total mess, "But these are all minor issues. What's important now is what trouble has Master Xingyi encountered? After all, he has helped us before and is your named disciple. If we can help, we should try to assist, right?"
Xu Hao said: "Of course, helping is a must, but the way to help needs some consideration. The difficulty he is facing, you could say it is big or small, but a careless handling could cause very adverse effects.
There are ten major families in Hongkong, and these ten families hold an extremely important position in Hongkong. Li Chenggong's Li Family is one of them, but now the conflict with Xing Yi is with another family, the Xiang Family.
Two years ago, the old family head of the Xiang Family, Xiang You, was in very poor health, on the brink of death. All the doctors said he should go home and live out the rest of his days, with barely a month left. Later, Xing Yi found out and arranged a new place for him to live, telling him that as long as he lived there, he could live at least another five years."
"So impressive? He could even prolong someone's life?!" Qin Yao was stunned and quickly asked.
She had never thought that changing a living place could extend someone's life.
"That's for sure. Don't underestimate those aspects of Huaya's traditions. Master Xingyi can command such respect from numerous tycoons for a reason. But the current focus is not on that, it's on the fact that Xiang You has already passed away, and his second son is relentlessly causing trouble for Master Xingyi, accusing him of being a fraud. Xing Yi didn't tell me, it was Li Chenggong who did." Xu Hao said.
"So what are you going to do?"
"Of course I need to step in and help. No matter what, Xing Yi is my named disciple. Now that he is in trouble and Li Chenggong has told me, I must intervene. Do you want to come with me to check it out?" Xu Hao asked with a smile.
"Sure, there aren't any other issues in the business for now, might as well take a look." Qin Yao immediately agreed.
...
Hongkong.
As one of the top ten families in Hongkong, the Xiang Family wields tremendously strong power in the business world. The Xiang Corporation was already listed, with a market value exceeding 300 billion Huaya Currency, definitely qualifying as a colossal family.
However, today in the Xiang Family's courtyard where Xiang You resided, there was a clamor, filled with wailing cries, and the sound of suona horns blaring, making anyone who heard it feel sorrowful.
In the courtyard, many people surrounded an elder, pointing at him as if blaming him. This elder was precisely Master Xingyi.
Standing beside Master Xingyi were Li Chenggong and others.
In the spacious and bright main room, there was a large bed, on which lay a frail, thin old man, with no signs of life, it was evidently the deceased Xiang Family's old family head, Xiang You.
He was wrapped in white cloth, resembling a mummy.
Among the people surrounding Master Xingyi outside, a couple in the front were the most aggressive.
The man was Xiang You's second son, Xiang Shang, and the woman was his wife.
Xiang Shang pointed at Master Xingyi's nose and angrily shouted: "You are a fraud! Not only do you cheat money, but you also cheat lives! Where is your conscience?! My father died so miserably, all because you killed him! Give me back my father!"
Xiang Shang's wife also relentlessly shouted in anger: "You charlatan, deceiving people everywhere, do you have any humanity left? Do you have any conscience at all? You are not even human!"
Many Xiang Family members outside were also angrily accusing Master Xingyi of wrongdoing, believing that Xiang You's death was entirely caused by Master Xingyi!
He was the one who killed Xiang You!
Master Xingyi said coldly: "Everyone, I'll repeat, I did not cause Xiang You's death. I was invited back then to find him a new place to stay, and after he moved, he was living well. How could he suddenly die? It must be that you did something to him!"
Hearing that Master Xingyi accused them of causing Xiang You's death, Xiang Shang's wife immediately screamed in anger: "You scamming charlatan, not only do you commit wrongful acts, you want to frame others, what is your motive? Do you have any shame left?"
Li Chenggong said on the side: "Master Xingyi's character has always been beyond question. Friends in Hongkong can all vouch for that. But you accuse him of intentionally causing Brother Xiang's death, isn't that framing him? There are quite a few people in Hongkong who have benefited from Master Xingyi's help. If Master Xingyi gets angry and calls them all here, do you think your Xiang Family can withstand the wrath of those people?"
Li Chenggong started speaking harshly, and even though Xiang Shang was the second in Xiang Family, the first had long passed, and now that Xiang You was gone, he was the head of the family.
