"Zimo, I just noticed that the food in the wooden box outside the door was neat and untouched. Could it be that I have something on my mind?" Hong Qi became concerned as soon as he entered the room.
"It's nothing to worry about. By the way, Brother Hong, do you know who the senior who is with you is?" Dongfang Zimo smiled bitterly and suddenly mentioned the old man Zhou Yin.
"You mean Uncle Zhou?" Hong Qi said slightly surprised.
"Oh? This senior is actually Brother Hong's uncle, that's it!" Dongfang Zimo's look of surprise flashed across his face.
"Why, Zimo suddenly mentioned his uncle Zhou. He must have some questions." Hong Qi smiled.
"Brother Hong, please tell me about the origin of this senior Zhou." The other party actually asked a question, so Dongfang Zimo continued to ask shamelessly.
"Hehe, this Uncle Zhou is not a simple man. He comes from the powerful Zhou clan in Mingshan, and he also serves as the elder of the sect. If he hadn't happened to pass by here to talk about the relationship between uncle and nephew, I'm afraid he wouldn't have condescended to
Here." After Hong Qi finished speaking, he unconsciously showed a hint of pride.
"Senior Zhou actually has such a big background." Dongfang Zimo was also shocked when he heard this. Thinking about the conditions of the old man's words today, Dongfang Zimo felt even more uneasy.
Hong Qi noticed something strange about Dongfang Zimo and asked curiously: "Zimo's injuries have been almost healed by his uncle, but why is Zimo unconscious?"
"I heard from Senior Zhou that it was caused by evil spirits entering the body. Fortunately, Senior Zhou gave me the "Calming Mantra" to temporarily suppress the evil spirits in my body. I heard that I accidentally injured several Hong family disciples when I was unconscious.
It is really my fault, dear brother, go to Sect Master Hong to apologize now!"
"What is Zimo's crime? This was done by evil spirits, what does it have to do with Zimo?" Hong Qi saw that Dongfang Zimo really went to plead guilty and hurriedly grabbed him.
Hong Qi had heard Zhou Yin mention this before, but he was still a little suspicious. Seeing Dongfang Zimo's attitude today, he believed what Zhou Yin said.
The two of them chatted in the quiet room for an hour.
On the way, Dongfang Zimo suddenly told him about magic power, which surprised Hong Qi. Later he learned that his uncle had given Dongfang Zimo a book on the cultivation of immortality.
In order to prove that he had no intention of hiding anything, Hong Qi sincerely told some things about cultivating immortality.
…
There is a corner in the school grounds of the Hong Sect, and several people are sitting there.
"I really didn't know that that kid had such amazing power. Thinking about the tragic scene of the hunted man kneeling down and begging for mercy, I just want to cut that man into pieces!" The fat man sitting in the middle was angry.
said.
"That man is so powerful and he is a popular person next to Elder Hong Qi. What can I do?" A pair of bearded men sighed.
Hearing this, everyone present sighed and became angry.
After all, what happened that day cast an indelible shadow on them, and they were afraid of being retaliated by Dongfang Zimo one day.
This makes the obese man have trouble sleeping and eating these days.
I don't know how long it took, but suddenly a man in green robe suddenly stood up.
"Senior brother, please calm down. Junior brother, I have a plan to make the man named Dongfang Zimo leave the Hong sect forever, and even make him disappear from this world."
"Oh? Come on, tell me about the plan!" Hearing this, the fat man immediately became interested.
"Recently, there has been a rumor circulating within the sect, saying that the disciples who died a few days ago were all the fault of Dongfang Zimo. Anyway, no one else knows the truth about this matter. Why don't you let this rumor become true?
Report to the sect master and ask the sect master to order this person to be kicked out."
"Hmph! How can the sect leader believe what I say? Besides, there is Elder Hong Qi behind that kid." The obese man thought about it, and although he thought he could give it a try, he knew that it would not be of much use.
"Haha, this matter is simple. I heard that Elder Hong Ping has always been at odds with Elder Hong Qi, and Elder Hong Ping is an uncle-nephew relationship with my senior brother. Why don't senior brother meet Elder Hong Ping and ask him to go to the sect master in person?"
The man in green robe said with a wicked smile.
"Haha! Wonderful! Wonderful! What a wonderful plan!" The fat man fell to the ground in fear and laughed, and then hurried to Elder Hong Ping's residence.
In a room, a fat man and a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties were chatting about something.
When the elder Hong Ping heard what his nephew told him about Dongfang Zimo's cruel deeds, he stared at the fat man's face solemnly.
"Is everything you said true?"
"My nephew saw with his own eyes that Dongfang Zimo killed many junior brothers and even wanted to kill me. Fortunately, a senior stopped him in time, otherwise my uncle would never see my nephew again. And that man committed a crime
For such a heinous crime, Elder Hong Qi did not deal with him. He still kept close contact with him, which was obviously to protect him. The two even began to call him brothers, without knowing what he had in mind!" the obese man said in a suspicious tone.
"It's really unreasonable. This guy is just an outsider, how dare he be so presumptuous! And that guy Hong Qi has been mysterious recently. I have long suspected whether he has a rebellious heart." After hearing this fat man, Elder Hong Ping
, the old dissatisfaction with Hong Qi even broke out.
The obese man left the place after chatting with the middle-aged man for a short time.
The middle-aged man was wandering back and forth in the room, seeming to be thinking about something.
Early the next morning, the Hong family elder hurried straight to the sect leader's mansion.
When Sect Leader Hong heard Elder Hong Ping's eloquent words, he was furious, but he calmed down in the next second.
"But I heard from Hong Qi that those dead disciples were killed by the assassin. How could it be this son's doing?" Sect Master Hong looked at the middle-aged man in front of him in confusion.
"Hmph! The sect master didn't know that Hong Qi had already called this son brother. It was clearly Hong Qi who protected this son, so he told the sect master that he was killed by an assassin!"
"Oh? Is this really true?" Sect Leader Hong frowned and asked the attendant beside him.
"Sect Master, Elder Hong Qi and the man named Dongfang Zimo are often called brothers and have a very good relationship." The attendant reported truthfully.
"That Hong Qi is so brave!" Sect Master Hong said angrily.
"This boy is just a martial artist, and he has no power fluctuations. What's the use of keeping him in the Hong family? Moreover, he killed several Hong family disciples. Why doesn't the sect master kill him to pay homage to those innocent disciples?"
"I'll leave this matter to you, and ask Hong Qi to come see me later!" Sect Master Hong was silent for a long time, and finally gave a cold command.
When Hong Ping heard this, he felt happy and went to take care of the matter after he agreed.
But Dongfang Zimo, who didn't know that disaster was coming, was still practicing the Changchun Jue in a quiet room.
Under the practice of forgetting sleep and food, he has fully comprehended the first level of Changchun Jue.
Dongfang Zimo believed that as long as he was given some time, he could break through to the first level.
