In a secret room in Tangmen, a group of old men were discussing matters.

Suddenly, two abnormal fluctuations, one strong and one weak, interrupted the meeting at this time.

Tang Zhuohang and other elders quickly closed their eyes and searched for the source of the fluctuation.

After confirming that they were friends and not enemies, they breathed a sigh of relief. When they saw who it was, they had different expressions on their faces.

In today's battle, the person who gained the most was none other than Li Ruyu. When he saw that the art of war could be integrated into the art of swordsmanship, he also thought about whether he could integrate Confucian classics into himself.

Judging from the results, he is undoubtedly successful! Now he has also successfully opened up the sea of ​​consciousness, but his sea of ​​consciousness is just a pool of autumn water.

But as long as he continues to realize himself and practice practice, I believe that in the near future, the autumn water will turn into a big river, or even a sea.

The second elder spoke first and congratulated: "Congratulations, head of the family, on getting a good son-in-law who is at the peak of the fourth grade."

"Haha, Zhuo Hang is so shameless that he made the second elder happy." Tang Zhuohang laughed loudly. Even he did not expect that Shen Xingliu could advance to the peak of the fourth rank at such a young age.

"However, the Tang Sect is not bad. There is actually a little guy who has also reached the peak of the fourth rank." He withdrew his mind and said: "If I remember correctly, this little guy should be on good terms with Jingze from the second family.

I guess your name is Li Ruyu?"

Tang Huaiying nodded and said: "Indeed, although he is from the outer sect, his strength is not inferior to that of the inner sect disciples. He is also a Confucian scholar from Qionghua Academy."

Seeing his eldest son mentioning his second son, Tang Huaibo sighed and said, "Zhuo Hang, what grudges can't be resolved between you and Zhuo Sheng? After all, you are brothers."

"Father, please don't worry about the matter between my second brother and I. I believe it will come to an end in the next few days." Tang Zhuohang bowed deeply and cupped his hands.

"That's fine, but I am very curious. How could a conflict that has not been resolved for three years be resolved in just a few days?" Tang Huaibo has been away from the world for a long time, and inevitably has no information, so he is very curious.

However, Tang Zhuohang didn't want to talk about it at this time.

He smiled and said nothing, and after a long time he said: "Elders, do you still remember the incident where the Tang Sect's treasure record was almost stolen three years ago?"

Tang Huaiying took a deep breath and said, "Are you talking about the fifth elder who survived the 'Eagle Difficulty' and broke into the tower?"

If it hadn't been for the incident that year, he would not have left the branch family and came to Tangmen to assume the position of fifth elder.

"But back then, we used all our strength to kill him." The fourth elder wondered why Tang Zhuohang brought up the old matter again.

"I won't hide it from you elders. When I entered the dense forest today, I was ambushed."

"What?" all the elders exclaimed.

The second elder immediately stood up and said, "Who is he? So bold? Dare to touch my Tang Sect disciple?"

When the Tang Sect was at its peak, there was a saying that had been circulating in the world: "It is better to mess with the living Yama than to mess with the Tang Sect Master."

This kind of prestige is real and earned, especially in the history of the Tang Sect, a puppet was used to assassinate a big shot.

The anger in the second elder's eyes was clearly visible. You must know that Tang Xuanxuan is the hope of the Tang Sect's future, not to mention Shen Xingliu.

If the two of them succeed, it will be a great blessing for the Tang Clan.

Tang Huaibo patted him on the shoulder and said: "Second Elder, everything has already happened. No matter how angry you are, it will not help. You first listen to what Zhuo Hang has to say."

"Second Elder, don't be angry. Fortunately, nothing happened to Xuanxuan." Tang Zhuohang also came to comfort him.

The second elder sighed: "How do you all become parents? Alas."

Seeing that the elders were all seated, he said: "Actually, the Tang family has been secretly spied on since three years ago. After this incident, it is obvious that there is also some evildoer in the Tang family."

"So, what do you want to do?" Tang Huaibo narrowed his eyes and said calmly.

"Son, if you are brave, please ask Tang Clan to seal the mountain and find out the traitor." Tang Zhuohang clasped his fists and lowered his head, saying firmly.

Tang Huaibo glanced at the elders who fell into silence, and then said: "Do you have any objections?"

"No."

"Agree."

Tang Huaiying thought for a moment and said, "Zhuo Hang, although I don't know much about what happened back then."

"But from what you just said, there are more than one or two people peeping in secretly."

"The Tang Clan's matter is easy to solve, but what about the people who spy on the Tang Clan? Do we need the Tang Clan's intervention?"

I asked two questions in a row, and each sentence hit the point.

Tang Zhuohang suddenly laughed and said: "Fifth Elder, you can rest assured, Zhuo Hang has his own arrangements."

"As the head of the Tang family, I hereby give an order. The Tang Clan will close the mountain in two days. All matters related to the Tang family do not need to be intervened by the Tang Clan."

"Haha, you are worthy of being my son." Tang Huaibo laughed and stood up.

"Follow the master's orders."

The four elders bowed down and bowed to the man who stood tall and held his head high.

Tang Zhuohang took a deep breath and quickly helped the elders up.

"Elders, please sit down quickly, I'm going to hurt my nephew." Tang Zhuohang said repeatedly.

After some pleasantries, everyone asked Tang Zhuohang to protect himself, but no one asked him what his plan was.

Only, Tang Huaibo sighed and said: "Zhuo Hang, although I don't know your plan, the conflict between you and the second brother should be resolved as soon as possible."

"I would love to see you two brothers work together to break the situation."

"I obey my father's orders." He lowered his eyes and said, "It's just father, no matter what news you hear later, don't get involved."

Tang Huaibo frowned and said in a daze: "Okay, you are all grown up and have your own attention. I will also restrain the Tang Sect disciples."

"Well, that's good." Tang Zhuohang said with a bright smile.

Seeing that the atmosphere in the room was extremely solemn, Tang Huaiying immediately laughed and changed the topic: "But how will Xuanxuan survive the eagle's difficulty in the future?"

The second elder thought for a while and said: "If it's difficult to cross over an eagle, of course, using the 'Lone Goose Crossing' technique is the best choice."

"It's just that I don't know how far Xuanxuan's Qinggong has reached in these years?" the fourth elder asked doubtfully. After all, the former has been away from them for ten years.

"Well, that's right. Tomorrow I will go to the school to test her body skills. She has also learned the 'Aoki Technique' in terms of skills. I believe she will be able to successfully pass the test."

When the elders heard the Qingmu Jue mentioned by Tang Zhuohang, the stones in their hearts fell to the ground. At the same time, the figure of a man also appeared in their hearts.

"Do you want to inform the third child about Fengshan and Xuanxuan's breakout in two days?" the second elder asked everyone.

The third child is naturally the third elder, Tang Huaishan. He lost his mother when he was young, his wife in middle age, and had no offspring in his life. He finally accepted a disciple who was a close match, and in the end he was expelled from the Tang Sect.

Tang Huaibo sat back on the chair and sighed: "There are only a few people in Lao San's lineage, so there is no need to tell him. No one is allowed to disturb his cultivation!"

"Yes." Everyone responded solemnly.

"If that traitor hadn't gone astray, why would the Third Elder be like this?" Tang Zhuohang said sadly.

The father asked with a bitter look on his face: "Have you heard of Jingshan's whereabouts over the years?"

He bit his lip, shook his head and said, "Ten years ago, someone saw him walking north, and there was no news after that."

In the room, several people were chatting away. The meeting lasted until late at night, and the elders slowly dispersed.

...

One night passed.

Before the first ray of light shone into the room in the morning, Shen Xingliu had already stopped practicing.

At this time, he had time to admire the stars in the sky within the sea of ​​consciousness.

There was a fist-sized light ball suspended in his hand. He gently pushed the light ball out, and the disordered starlight was gradually attracted towards it.

The light group is also slowly rotating, as if life is gestating.

"Could this light group be the sun?" Shen Xingliu was a little surprised and a little surprised, because he couldn't explain the scene in front of him.

He now desperately wants to see Tang Xuanxuan and share it with the latter.

In the room, he opened his eyes and saw a foggy scene. It turned out that he did not close the window last night, and the fog poured into the room.

Shen Xingliu stood up and stretched his limbs, and a series of explosions erupted from the bones and joints of his body.

Feeling extremely comfortable, he waved a palm to disperse the fog, and the window was automatically closed without any wind.

After taking the black knife, he prepared to go out. When he came to the next door, he knocked on the door and said, "Brother Qingfeng, are you up?"

Tang Qingfeng had just put on his clothes, and when he heard the sound of opening the door, he congratulated: "Congratulations to Brother Shen. You have reached the peak of the fourth rank!"

"Oh? How did you know?" Shen Xingliu asked in surprise.

Inviting Shen Xingliu into the room, he said: "Brother Shen is unaware of something. When the sea of ​​consciousness is opened, the surrounding spiritual energy of the world will respond to its own energy, thus causing fluctuations."

Shen Xingliu didn't know much about it and said doubtfully: "Well, is it just like the fluctuation of a stone falling into water?"

Tang Qingfeng poured him a cup of tea. This was the first time he heard such a description. He smiled slightly and said, "It can be understood this way."

Nodding and taking a sip of tea, Shen Xingliu suddenly said: "What is the spiritual energy of heaven and earth you just mentioned?"

Tang Qingfeng was drinking tea from the cup and almost choked when he was so frightened.

"What is spiritual energy?" Tang Qingfeng put down the cup helplessly, thinking of a reasonable explanation, and then said: "Let's do this. Close your eyes and imagine ripples being released from the center of your eyebrows."

Shen Xingliu placed the black knife on the table, sat upright with his back straight, closed his eyes and followed the instructions.

Then a magical scene was projected into his mind.
