Han Shousi stared at the two of them with a smile on his lips.
"Haha, the guy whose engagement was broken off has the nerve to show up here. I'm so ashamed!"
"Keep the temple!"
After hearing this, Wang Zilun became furious and stared at him fiercely. He was about to fight with each other when he was stopped by Elder Han.
"Get out of here!"
Han Shousi was very dissatisfied because he lost to Youyou in the Spring Equinox Competition last time. He originally wanted to take this opportunity to show off his skills, but was blocked by his father.
"father?"
"Get out of here, what we are talking about now has nothing to do with you, don't go around causing trouble!"
Han Shoushi had no choice but to retreat first.
Then, he turned his head and looked at Wang Wunian with disdain, and looked at it from bottom to top.
"Wang Wunian, you are also an elder of the Xuantian Sect. You have been hiding in Luoyang Town every year. No matter what happens, you treat it as if nothing has happened. Everyone does not know the reputation of the Buddhist elders. We are the same as each other, so don't
We are talking useless sarcastic remarks to each other here."
When Wang Wunian said this, he almost had a heart attack. He pointed at Elder Han and coughed: "You!"
Wang Shunzhi was worried about her father's health and wanted to go over and take a look. Wang Zilun waved his hand and said softly: "The matters concerning Xuantian Sect are not up to us juniors, so don't act rashly."
Xuanyuan Qing saw that the two of them were having a heated argument and the other elders didn't say a word, which was very embarrassing.
So he hurriedly came to the two of them and persuaded: "You are both important figures in Xuantian Sect, so don't fight each other."
"Since you have doubts about Zhou Liting, let us elders here look for evidence among each other. How is Zhou Liting? We will make a decision in half a month. What do you think?"
Wang Wunian didn't want to waste words here, so after hearing this, he threw up his sleeves and left angrily.
Not long after, the other elders briefly exchanged greetings with Xuanyuan Qing and left the mansion one after another.
Xuanyuan Qing sat in the central hall with great anger. Looking at the seats in front of him, he shook his head and sighed: "None of these old guys are useful!"
"master!"
Bai Suxi came to him with a cup of hot tea. Seeing that he was very angry, she didn't dare to say anything, put down the tea cup and turned to leave.
"Madam, what's the point of talking about these old things? It's obviously Zhou Liting who did it, but I don't dare to admit it. I'm just wondering, what's so good about this Zhou Liting? Even when Brother Ye was alive, he said that this person
You can beat and humiliate, but you can’t kill, why on earth is that?”
Seeing his sad face, Bai Suxi sat on the chair next to him and thought for a moment.
"Master, the Xuantian Sect was founded by the Zhou family. The Zhou family has been the patriarch of the Xuantian Sect for so many years, and their boxing skills are so superb that when Zhou Liting was alive, none of the elders, including the master, were his opponents.
"
"This is prestige. It naturally makes these elders fearful. This is normal. Please don't worry too much, sir."
But Xuanyuan Qing still smiled unconvinced and said: "There was Zhou Liting in the front and Ye Wensheng in the back. Now that these two people are dead, can't I, Xuanyuan Qing, be in charge of the Xuantian Sect?"
"One is treacherous and harms the entire Qi cultivator for the soul-devouring blood bead; the other is sanctimonious all day long and will do anything to compete for the position of clan leader. These two people are now dead. Can't I, Xuanyuan Qing, take their place?
..."
Xuanyuan Qing finally spoke out her true thoughts, and Bai Suxi naturally felt much relieved.
"Master, the Xuantian Sect is currently in chaos. If I can win over the hearts of the Xuantian Sect and the people of Beimo Continent in time, then the leader of the Xuantian Sect must be me."
Bai Suxi actually knew that, overtly and covertly, her master had done a lot of things for no one else, but as a woman, she couldn't ask too many questions, but she could still insinuate her.
But what Bai Suxi doesn't know is that the things her master does secretly can completely destroy her life, and even the entire Xuantian Sect.
Due to the uproar in the Ye Mansion, the people of Beimo and Tianqian Town, although they dare not go out, they visit each other often to talk.
On the third day after the Ye Mansion was exterminated, someone spread the news that all this was caused by Zhou Liting's affair with Haotian Pavilion.
There is no one in charge of the Zhou Mansion now, and Zhou Liting's death has made all the servants of the Zhou Mansion feel like headless flies at a loss.
They would definitely not believe the rumors from the outside world, but people's words can be feared, and now even the servants of the Zhou family will be looked down upon when they go out to buy groceries.
On this day, in the Zhou Mansion, several servants were discussing with each other.
"Our master will definitely not do such a thing. The Zhou family has been the patriarch of the Xuantian Sect for generations. How could he do such a treasonous thing? What's more, the young master and the housekeeper have gone to the academy. This is so honorable to the ancestors, and the master is even more disloyal.
Will take risks."
"Yes, but now I don't know who is spreading rumors and causing trouble in the outside world. Now even if we go out to buy food or daily necessities, we will be laughed at by the neighbors and said to be the servants of traitors. What should we do?"
The servants were in great trouble. After Zhou Liting died, they wanted to sell the valuable things in Zhou's mansion and go their separate ways, but they didn't want to give up the friendship with Zhou's mansion. Even now that the master is gone and the young master is not here, the Zhou's mansion is still there.
Now, they want to keep it going.
But now that something like this has happened, it makes them miserable. Even if they disperse now, they still carry the reputation of traitorous servants and will not be welcomed anywhere.
"Hey? Why don't we send one of us to find the young master and the housekeeper? Even if we can't find them, it's just a thought. It's better than waiting here."
As soon as these words came out, the servants rushed to go, but in the end they chose to let the deputy steward go through a show of hands.
The deputy housekeeper is also an old man from the Zhou family. If it hadn't been for that emergency, he would have been the housekeeper now, and he has no connection with Xu Qingnian at all.
The name of the deputy butler was Tang Mansheng. Although his cultivation level was a little low, he was still capable of dealing with ordinary people. He said goodbye to the servants in the house and went on the road. Although he did not know where the young master was, he knew an accurate location. Then
It's Dong Chu...
In Dongchu, Zhou Tian and Xu Qingnian had already stayed in Xiyun Palace for a whole day in the blink of an eye.
Because Mo Xuan has to stay at the tavern, he won't go with them.
But when they arrived here, they found that the city lord was not in the city at this time. If they wanted to get that thing, they had to wait until the city lord was there.
It's normal to say that Xiyun Palace is special, but there are still some special features.
Generally speaking, both inside and outside the city gate should be heavily guarded, but in Xiyun Palace, as long as you pass the interrogation of the soldiers at the city gate, there will be no more troops to speak of after entering.
When Zhou Tian came in, he asked Xu Qingnian why, but Xu Qingnian simply said a few words: "Xiyun Palace is a place that cannot be invaded."
This sentence is so magical that Zhou Tian is puzzled. Could it be that just a few words can scare people away?
But Zhou Tian soon forgot what he was thinking. When he came to the city, thousands of sellers were selling their goods together. The scene was really lively. Zhou Tian had lived in Tianqi Town since he was a child. He had never seen such a prosperous scene. Even if
During the Chinese New Year, the scene in the town is not one bit as good as here.
He completely ignored Lao Xu's words and walked around, wandering around, which made him forget to return. Juggling, performing arts, and martial arts competitions abounded. It was like a new world was opened to Zhou Tian, making him instantly happy and joyful.
All the worries were immediately forgotten.
Ever since he knew that the city lord was not here, Zhou Tian was even more excited. He played and wandered around for a whole day.
After returning to an inn, Zhou Tian was still in a very excited mood after a night passed.
Since they had limited money and the accommodation here was very expensive, he and Lao Xu lived in the same room.
Fortunately, there were two beds, otherwise Lao Xu's hands full of fishy smell would have been a pain for Zhou Tian.
Early in the morning, Zhou Tian simply packed up and was about to go out.
"What are you going to do?"
Old Xu looked out the window sleepily, his genius dawning on him.
"Old Xu, maybe the city lord will come back today. I'll go for a stroll and wander around again. Don't tell me that Xiyun Palace is quite big. I spent all day yesterday and didn't finish wandering around one third of Xiyun Palace.
.”
After that, he jumped out of the room.
Lao Xu didn't want him to be so arrogant, but he also thought about the fact that there were not many experts in Xiyun Palace, and most of them were female officials. Now that the city lord is not here, the white-armored paladin should not be here either, so there is nothing to worry about.
So he lay back down and fell asleep.
Zhou Tian walked leisurely on the main streets of the city, which was very pleasant. Although Dongchu was a little cold in this season, Zhou Tian was fully immersed in this noisy street and did not feel the slightest chill.
"Master! Master! Come here!"
A soft and artificial cry aroused Zhou Tian's interest. When he looked up, several large characters appeared in front of his eyes.
"Shi Chun Tower."
Zhou Tian lowered his head and said nothing, thinking to himself: Although Beimo is not big, there is a brothel, but my father doesn't let me go on weekdays. It's not good for Youyou to know about it, but this is in Dongchu, where the sky is high and the emperor is far away.
Why not go in and take a look.
After thinking about it, he turned around and went in.
When Zhou Tian came back to Feng Yue's place for the first time, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous. He opened the door curtain and the aroma that hit his nostrils almost made him suffocate.
I thought of a sentence that the storyteller once said: "There are flowers and willows in the alleys, people are drunk and rich, leaning against the door to show off their laughter, and singing and singing every night."
I couldn't help but tremble all over. I looked up and saw that the wind was blowing like a phantom sea falling into the mountains. There were singing and dancing in the building and smoke was lingering, giving people a feeling that was both real and illusory.
There was an endless stream of guests on each floor, and the girls' voices kept coming and going, making it a mess and I didn't know what they were talking about.
Zhou Tian slowly walked in, when a woman who looked very old took the initiative to approach him.
"Hey, what's wrong with such an immature boy? What kind of girl are you looking for? I have everything here, haha..."
