The Grand Master stood there and looked at the Second Master with complicated eyes. He knew that the Second Master's prejudice against Ling Xiao was deeply rooted, but he also understood the importance of Ling Xiao to the Tianxiahui.
He shook his head gently, his heart filled with helplessness towards the Second Master's stubborn attitude. He knew that no matter how much he tried to persuade him, he could not change the Second Master's view. But he also understood that as the Grand Master, he had a responsibility
Protect every disciple, especially a genius like Ling Xiao.
"Second brother, I know you don't like Ling Xiao, but I hope you can understand that Ling Xiao is the future of Tianxiahui." The voice of the Grand Master was full of sincerity, "If we lose him, we will lose an immeasurable opportunity.
.One day in the future, when you realize this, you will understand how stupid your current attitude is."
Da Zhangyuan looked at the falling leaves outside the window, feeling helpless and frustrated.
He shook his head, as if he wanted to shake away the depression in his heart, but the fact was that he was no longer in the mood to scold Er Zhangyuan, a "stupid guy" who was always stuck in his ways. The look in his eyes revealed
It is no longer the firmness and decisiveness of the past, but a deep worry and hesitation.
He knew very well that Ling Xiao's talent was the hope for the future of the Tianxiahui. However, the reality was cruel. Although their Tianxiahui had a long history, their strength was far inferior to the behemoths like the East China Sea Empress Palace.
Not to mention the addition of the Donghai Jiang family. The two forces joining forces are enough to plunge the world into a situation that is beyond redemption.
"Oh, is there anything more depressing than this in the world?" Da Zhangyuan murmured to himself, his voice full of bitterness. He recalled Ling Xiao's eyes shining with wisdom and perseverance, and couldn't help but feel
A twinge of pain.
They clearly had an uncut piece of jade, but they were unable to protect him due to lack of strength. This powerlessness made him feel extremely frustrated and angry.
At this time, the Third Zhangyuan and the Fourth Zhangyuan also came to him, their faces also full of worry and helplessness.
They looked at the Great Palm Courtyard, their hearts filled with uneasiness and worry. They knew that the World Society was currently in a state of turmoil, and if they could not find a solution as soon as possible, they might not even be able to guarantee their own survival.
"We obviously have a piece of rough jade, but we can't protect it." Sanzhangyuan sighed, his voice full of regret and helplessness.
"This is the original sin of weakness. After all, we are still too weak to even protect our own disciples." The Fourth Palm Court also added, his eyes shining with determination, as if looking for a glimmer of hope.
However, hope always seems so far away. They know that if they want to change the status quo, they must make great efforts. But facing powerful enemies like the Donghai Empress Palace and the Donghai Jiang Family, what can they do?
…
Ling Xiao stood quietly in the cemetery for a moment. He took a deep breath, as if he wanted to absorb the tranquility and solemnity around him into his body.
He knew that only in practice could he find true peace and completely relax his mind. So, he slowly closed his eyes and began his journey of practice.
His mind gradually became calm during cultivation, and the noise and disturbance around him seemed to go away. He was immersed in the world of cultivation, as if isolated from the world. Time passed slowly in his perception, and every breath was accompanied by
With the rhythm of cultivation, he seemed to be integrated with heaven and earth.
??????????.??????
About half an hour later, a middle-aged man wearing a blue robe appeared outside the cemetery. There was a bit of majesty on his face. He was the Grand Master. When he saw Ling Xiao practicing, he did not disturb him.
Wait quietly.
Finally, Ling Xiao finished his training. He opened his eyes, and there was a bright light in his eyes. He felt the aura of the Grand Master, and stood up and saluted to the Grand Master.
The Grand Master nodded in approval, and then said: "Ling Xiao, Jiang Zhunian, the representative of the Jiang family, has been waiting in the hall for a long time. We have to hurry over."
Ling Xiao nodded, knowing that this meeting was no small matter.
The Grand Master told Ling Xiao that the reason they chose to meet in Tianxiahui was because they were worried that Jiang Zhunian would take action.
Within the Tianxiahui, Jiang Zhunian was always a little wary and could not do anything at will. After hearing this, Ling Xiao couldn't help but admire the arrangements of the Grand Master Courtyard. He knew that this meeting would be a test, but
He also believes he can handle it.
Ling Xiao followed the Grand Master to the Grand Hall. Along the way, the Grand Master began to introduce to him the situation of the Donghai Jiang Family and the Empress Palace.
He described the history, strength and status of these two forces in the world in detail. Ling Xiao listened with great interest. This was the first time he understood these two forces in such detail.
"The Empress Palace of the East China Sea, this mysterious and powerful force, has always formed a delicate balance with the East China Sea Temple with its unique inheritance method and powerful strength. The secret method possessed by the Empress Palace is not only the cornerstone of its foothold in the East China Sea
, and it is an existence that shocked the entire world."
"Each generation of empress can directly inherit all the power of the previous generation of empress through a special method. The inheritance of this power ensures that there will never be a gap in the supreme power of the empress palace. The accumulation of this power is like
It's like a snowball, getting bigger and bigger, making the position of the Empress Palace in the East China Sea increasingly stable."
When the Grand Master mentioned the Empress Palace, a trace of awe flashed in his eyes. He sighed deeply: "The secret method of the Empress Palace is really amazing. The way this power is passed down is like a mythical existence.
."
Then, the Grand Master changed the topic and talked about the Jiang family of Donghai. He sighed and said: "Although the Jiang family of Donghai cannot be compared with the Empress' Palace, they are also powerful among the forces in Donghai. Their family has a long history.
With a profound foundation, there shouldn’t be any problem ranking among the top ten in Donghai.”
"However, over the years, the management of the Jiang family has been in chaos, and internal struggles have been fierce. Their ancestor, the powerful man who once powerfully shook the East China Sea, has also been missing for a long time, and his life and death are uncertain. This has caused internal conflicts in the Jiang family.
It’s even more acute, and the family’s future is also full of uncertainty.”
"But even so, the Donghai Jiang family is still scary. If they want to cause trouble for you, it will be difficult for you to resist."
The Grand Master looked at Ling Xiao and said earnestly: "Ling Xiao, although you are gifted and powerful, you still need to be extra careful when facing a force like the Jiang family in the East China Sea. = After all, the Jiang family is a powerful party in the East China Sea.
, its background and strength are extraordinary. You must be careful and don’t underestimate the enemy.”
Ling Xiao was silent, like an indestructible stone, quietly listening to the words of the Grand Master. ()
