"Shh, be careful and don't talk nonsense! Do you want to die?"
"Hey! Everyone who enters the land of immortal ruins can clearly see it. Anyone who doesn't come out by then will naturally die in it! How can such a thing be concealed?"
"How could the Great Elder die? He is such a powerful person..."
"Hey! In the land of immortal ruins, there are still so many great monks who have fallen in so many years? Several of those at the peak of the divine transformation stage have fallen! The great elder is only in the early stage of the divine transformation stage..."
In the manor, the core members of the Zhang family who came and went all had heavy expressions and came and went in a hurry. After meeting, they just nodded lightly and rarely spoke. In the corners of those buildings, the servants
But they were discussing something carefully, and the words "Great Elder" were always in their mouths.
In the meeting hall of the Zhang family, an old man in brocade clothes with a pale face looked gloomy and said nothing. On the table at his hand, a life tablet had been broken into several pieces, but it could still be vaguely seen.
"Zhang Yang" is written in two small characters in Zhong Dingwen.
In the hall, more than a dozen senior members of the Zhang family with different auras stood there with their heads lowered and tremblingly without saying a word. It was obvious that no one dared to offend the angry old man.
"Third brother, are you telling the truth?" After a while, the old man in golden clothes spoke slowly, his voice sounding as if it was coming back from the Jiuyou Underworld, making people shudder.
"Brother, what time has it been? How could I talk nonsense about this kind of thing?" The monk in blue standing next to him said repeatedly: "Second brother indeed listened to Zhu'er and discovered a place with land.
In the place of fire, I suddenly decided to go to the immortal ruins. But I think Zhuer had good intentions. This kind of thing happened completely by accident and had nothing to do with Zhuer..."
"Crack!"
The old man in Jinyi slapped the table hard, and the table immediately turned into countless powders.
"This little bastard actually caused such a big thing. If he hadn't said something about earth fire, how could the second brother have fallen?"
The old man in golden clothes is the current head of the Zhang family in Luoyang City. Zhang Kuang, a monk at the peak of his divine transformation stage. Zhang Yang, the alchemist, is his younger brother. As an alchemist as famous as Lu Xiansheng, Zhang Yang's status and role in the family can be
It's easy to imagine. It can be said that Zhang Yang was the face of their Zhang family in Luoyang. Now that he has fallen, how can he not be shocked and angry?
Of course, he didn't know that Zhang Yang did not completely fall, but escaped from Nascent Soul by luck. However, even if they knew this, there was nothing they could do. The Immortal Ruins cannot be entered if you want to, only when they are opened
, to enter.
However, even if Zhang Yang's Nascent Soul finds a suitable physical body and successfully seizes the body, it will only save a small life. It will be extremely difficult to become a sixth-level alchemist! In that case, for the Zhang family, it will be the same as death.
How many......
And just after Zhang Yang "fell", Zhang Kuang knew that the reason why Zhang Yang suddenly decided to go to the immortal ruins to hunt for treasure was because a junior provided a map of the earth fire. And collecting the essence of the earth fire was Zhang Yang's long-cherished wish. Obviously
, Zhang Yang, who rarely goes to immortal ruins, decided to take the risk because of the temptation of the earth fire essence!
Now that Zhang Yang is dead, the junior who provided the map of earth and fire is naturally guilty of a heinous crime in his opinion!
"Bastard! Bastard! You have been using the name of your family to show off and lie all day long, and now you have caused the death of the second child! Even if he is the grandson of the second child, I must not spare him!"
The old man in brocade clothes became more and more angry as he spoke. He suddenly kicked out a low-level monk in front of him with a loud thud and said, "Now take people to Zhaixing Tower to get that little bastard."
I’ll catch it!”
…
Zhaixing Building, in the lobby on the first floor.
The lobby on the first floor of the Star Building is extremely large, but it is divided into more than a dozen small halls of the same size. There is a high platform in the center of each small hall, and many of the high platforms in the small halls have beautiful faces.
The peerless beauty was performing a sword dance, which attracted cheers from the monks in the audience.
On a high platform in one of the small halls, a delicate girl wearing light green clothes with two cute dimples when she smiled was holding a flying sword with cold light, dancing like clouds and flowing water. The corner of the small hall
In a seat, a young man with a melancholy expression sat there, his eyes staring at the girl in green for a moment, with a trace of intoxication often flashing in his eyes.
The three-headed lion emblem on the young man's chest shows his identity as a descendant of the Zhang family, the head of the four major families in Luoyang City.
The girl dancing the sword looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old. Her nose was slightly upturned, her eye sockets were slightly deep, her skin was much fairer than that of ordinary Chinese women, her eyes were as clear as autumn water, but she was a little shy.
Looking closely, although this girl's sword dance is somewhat similar to that of Mrs. Gongsun, it lacks a lot of charm. Obviously, this sword dance has just been learned. On her sleeves
The only silver star also revealed her identity, she was a one-star dancer in the Star Reaching Tower.
And there was only a lonely spectator in this small hall, the melancholy young man.
The girl danced by herself, seemingly completely immersed in her dance physically and mentally, but her eyes always glanced at the melancholy young man in the audience seemingly casually. Whenever caught by the young man, the girl would
He smiled shyly, revealing two beautiful dimples.
Seeing the blushes that appeared on the face of the girl on the stage from time to time, a look of contentment flashed in the eyes of the melancholy young man, and he sank deeper into the sofa.
"Although it is difficult for me to improve my skills, but with such a beautiful confidante, what more can I ask for..." The young man slowly took a sip of the valuable spiritual wine in the cup, and a smile appeared on his face.
.
"Life is really unpredictable! If I hadn't suffered an accident ten years ago in the Immortal Ruins, I would still be an elite member of the Zhang family. But if that were the case, how could I end up on the first floor of the Star-Zhaing Tower?
Watch the sword dance?”
"If I didn't come to the first floor to watch the dance, how could I possibly meet Miss Yuyan?"
"So what if I can't make progress, so what if I can't build a foundation? Although I have lost a lot of life, but now that I have sister Yuyan, what more can I ask for?" The melancholy young man couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart when he thought of the shy little girl when he first met that day.
Swinging, he put his slender palm to his mouth, pressed it, and then waved towards the girl on the stage.
When the girl saw that her sweetheart was teasing her like this again, her fair little face instantly turned into two overripe little apples, and her dance steps suddenly became chaotic.
"Iron pillar, iron pillar!" The melancholy young man was feeling proud when suddenly, an anxious voice came in. Then, a tall young man in the same dress hurried in, with a look of anxiety written on his face.
"What's going on, Fifth Brother?" the melancholy young man said lazily: "Come on, come on, since you're here, how about we watch Miss Mei's sword dance together?"
"You still have the heart to watch the sword dance!" The man called Fifth Brother by the young man smiled bitterly: "Something big has happened! The head of the family sent Lao Ba to invite you back!"
"Oh?" The melancholy young man's expression did not change, he slowly took another sip of the spirit wine, and said lightly: "How could the master of the house think of me, a loser, today! Since you came with Lao Ba, why didn't he
Come in?"
"Why would you come to a place like this?" The fifth brother subconsciously looked at the single silver star on the girl's sleeve in the stands, and said with a wry smile: "On the Qibao Pavilion of the Star-Zhaing Tower, at least all the direct disciples of our Zhang family are on it.
On the second floor of the hotel, only you would come here to wander around. Watching sword dance at this level is not helpful to your cultivation. Only you, a man who is obsessed with your mind, would come here to waste spirit stones. Besides,
Even in terms of appearance, this girl named Mei is hardly the best choice..."
"Fifth Brother, I can't make any more progress, and you don't know it." When the melancholy young man saw Fifth Brother mentioning his sweetheart, a trace of hesitation appeared on his face: "Please don't talk about Miss Mei's appearance!
I have no control over anything that happens to the head of the family. Since it’s Lao Ba who’s here, let him come in and talk to me!”
"Iron pillar..."
"Go, Fifth Brother! It's not like you don't know my temper. If you want Lao Ba to tell you something, if he doesn't want to, just let him go back and recover. I, Zhang Tiezhu, am a useless person, so what's the point?
Scared!" The melancholy young man took another sip of spiritual wine, put down the glass and said calmly.
"Hey!" The man called Fifth Brother sighed helplessly, knowing that this boy was notorious for his stubborn temper ever since he encountered that disaster, so he had no choice but to duck away and walk out in frustration.
After a while, a handsome young man in luxurious clothes walked in with an impatient look on his face, a sinister look on his face.
"Tie Zhu, what are you talking about? Are you not listening to the master's orders?"
"Haha. Old man, don't rush to slap me with a big hat. If you want to reprimand me, wait until you become the head of the family!" The melancholy young man picked up the wine glass and took a sip of wine. He put down the glass and said happily: "Ah.
!It’s really good wine. A pot of Immortal Drunk worth 100 spirit stones, Laoba, do you want to try it?”
"Zhang Tiezhu! Look at yourself and what you are like now! Our Zhang family has completely disgraced you!" The handsome young man suddenly became furious and said through gritted teeth.
"The Zhang family? Haha, since the last immortal ruins were opened, am I still a member of the Zhang family?" Zhang Tiezhu, a melancholy young man, sneered repeatedly: "Old man, you are very good! Now you dare to talk to me loudly, if
Ten years ago, would you say it loudly in front of me?"
"You are not a member of the Zhang family? If you are not a member of the Zhang family, how could this little guy named Mei fall in love with you? If you are not a member of the Zhang family, why do you go around using the name of a member of the Zhang family all day long?
Borrow money?" The handsome young man said disdainfully: "What were you doing ten years ago at this time and at that time? Anyway, you are a complete waste now!"
The girl who was dancing the sword on the high platform couldn't help but trembled in her heart when she saw the handsome young man's words humiliating her, and her steps became even more scattered. How could she still be dancing with the sword? However, due to the strict rules of the Zhaixing Tower, she could only turn pale.
Continue the sword dance.
"Old man, do you have the guts to say that again?" Zhang Tiezhu was furious: "If you dare to insult Miss Mei again, I will fight you to the death!"
"Okay! You two, start arguing when we meet!" Lao Wu also followed in and said helplessly: "Lao Ba, have you forgotten why the master asked you to come here?"
The handsome young man suppressed his anger forcibly, and created a barrier with both hands, wrapping the three people inside, and then said: "I won't talk nonsense to you! The great elder fell in the immortal ruins, and the master of the family ordered me to call you back for questioning.
!”
"Great Elder? My grandfather is dead?" Zhang Tiezhu's melancholy face finally showed a look of shock.
"Hmph! Let's go quickly, the master of the house is waiting for you!"
Zhang Tiezhu stood up slowly, his face becoming extremely solemn. Although he had no feelings for this grandfather, he was his support in the family after all.
Although the little beauty on the stage was still dancing with the sword, there was an inquiring expression on her face. Zhang Tiezhu smiled at her with relief, and finally followed the handsome young man and left the Star-Zhaing Tower without saying a word...
