Liu Xin was really busy because the Great Court Meeting had begun. As a grand event in the Zhengdao Wulin, the Holy Sect held a Great Court Meeting every five years.
He, the great disciple of the Holy Sect, has many things to do. He is needed to maintain public order, welcome people and send them off.
Yesterday, Xuesheng told him that A Li was coming back, and all the things were piled up together, making him jump up and down.
Fortunately, he has a helper back. Yan Chun, the fourth direct descendant of the Holy Sect and a famous martial arts "Sword Immortal", has finally returned after traveling for five years.
In the last court meeting, Yan Chun was responsible for Liu Xin's work, so Liu Xin welcomed his senior brother back with tears of gratitude. The moment he saw his senior brother, Liu Xin was so excited that tears filled his eyes.
"Ahhh! Senior brother, you are finally back!"
Yan Chun's long hair was simply tied back, and he was wearing an ordinary green shirt. He didn't have the demeanor of a martial arts master at all, and his sword was not visible.
Seeing Liu Xin who suddenly jumped on him, Yan Chun smiled helplessly. When he left, Liu Xin was still a half-grown boy, but now he is a handsome young man.
"Okay, Master, where is the old man? I'll go visit him first, and then I'll have a drink with you when I come back. When I left, you were young and couldn't drink. Now that you're older, you can have a few drinks with your senior brother!"
Liu Xin wiped his tears on Yan Chun's clean clothes, jumped off the latter, then smiled awkwardly and said:
"We'll talk about drinking later. Now that you're back, senior brother, can you help me see what's going on at the court meeting?"
Yan Chun pretended to be angry and said: "Why do you have to be lazy as soon as I come back? This is a task assigned to you by the master. Don't you know the consequences of cheating and cheating?"
Liu Xin immediately clung to Yan Chun again, making Yan Chun feel sick.
"I haven't seen you for a few years, why are you so clingy!"
"Hey, senior brother! I happen to have something to do today. A Li is back, and I have to pick her up."
"Hey, she's out of seclusion. Well, if that's the case, then you can go and my senior brother will look after you for a day. By the way, since A Li is back, let her return to the Holy Sect. Although she is a disciple of the Demon Lord, She is also the daughter of my Holy Sect! Come back and let us see, the Demon Lord taught her with all her heart."
"Okay senior brother! Thank you, senior brother! Senior brother is a good man and has a safe life!"
After that, Liu Xin ran away in a hurry.
In a hidden corner, six people were already waiting for him. When he saw Liu Xin appear, Gou Saner couldn't help but ask:
"Senior Brother Yan Chun, do you agree?"
Gou San'er's expression was a little nervous, and the other five people also had nervous looks on their faces.
Liu Xin chuckled, stretched out his thumb and shook it: "With me taking action, everything will be settled!"
"Great!"
“Awesome!”
"As expected of senior brother!"
Liu Xin smiled and accepted the compliments from his brothers, and then the group of seven people left the mountainside where the Holy Sect was located without stopping, and headed straight for the top of Tianyun Peak.
There, Xuesheng and Ali should already be waiting for them.
When Yan Chun was about to accept Liu Xin's job, he was helpless to find that Liu Xin not only handed over his own work to him, but also left the work of Xiong Er and Gou San'er and those bastards. Gave it to him.
To put it bluntly, the Holy Sect Great Meeting is a gathering between the sects of the Righteous Sect. This tradition has lasted for nearly a hundred years.
During the Great Court Meeting, each sect will send a large number of people to the Holy Sect for exchanges. Each sect will learn from each other, communicate with each other, and enhance understanding. This is an activity that is beneficial to all sects.
Although since the establishment of Emperor Wu City, it became the second sect of the Righteous Path in one fell swoop, and after using the power of the imperial court to cleanse the martial arts world, the number of martial arts sects has decreased sharply. But new forces are springing up like mushrooms after a rain, and the actions of Emperor Wu City have indeed corrected the atmosphere in the martial arts world.
Therefore, except for the one that was relatively deserted after the Emperor Wu City had just cleaned up the Wulin, the following ones were still very prosperous. Even Emperor Wu City would give Shengzong some thin noodles, and the upper echelons of Emperor Wu City would be present.
After all, it is a conference to promote the harmonious development of the martial arts world. The fact that Emperor Wu City is here to participate means that the court behind it is actually happy to see such a conference held.
The main reason why Xia uses force to break the law is lack of restraint and personal power is too strong.
In addition to communication and exchange, the Great Court Meeting also has an important function: to elect the martial arts leaders of each province in the empire to supervise the local area on behalf of the entire Zhengdao martial arts forest.
Of course, it goes without saying that the martial arts leader in Zhongzhou Province is Sheng Zong, and the martial arts leader in Shanxi Province is Emperor Wu. As for the remaining twenty provinces, they need to be recommended at each court meeting.
As for the method of recommendation, it is also very simple, that is, a competition between contemporary disciples.
This contemporary disciple refers to the younger generation of disciples who are no more than twenty-five years old. All of them will compete against each other under the watchful eyes of the sect leaders, elders, and thousands of people. The sect of the final winner will become the leader of a province's martial arts world. .
This is not only an honor, but more importantly, the martial arts leader in a province can receive support from the Holy Sect and Emperor Wu City. For some small sects, the Holy Sect and Martial Emperor City are existences on several levels. If they can get the help of these two top sects, they can develop quickly.
Wulin is actually a society. When there is a society, there are classes, and when there are classes, there are people who are constantly climbing up.
Liu Xin actually did a good job. He did not leave the entire stall to Yan Chun, but did some finishing work. Yan Chun has presided over two sessions of the Imperial Court, and this is the third time. He has rich experience.
All the work, including the work of Xiong Er and the six of them, was completed in Yan Chun's hands in just half a day. On the night when Yan Chun came back, he could already stand in the wind outside his room facing the sea of clouds, looking at the sparks of Gongping Town at the foot of the mountain in the distance. Those sparks were reflected in his eyes, and his expression was sometimes gloomy, sometimes painful, and sometimes relieved.
There was no sad scene when Liu Xin and Liu Li got together. It was as if the two had never been separated for a long time.
"My Ah Li has grown taller, hahaha, but brother, I am taller. You can't touch the top of my head anymore!" Liu Xin's first words when he saw Liu Li were this, because Ah Li had grown so much when he was a child. Quickly, Liu Xin had always been half a head taller than him, and then the top of Liu Xin's head suffered a disaster. He kept being rubbed by A Li, which made him extremely unhappy for a while.
Liu Li will be over five feet tall (165cm) and is considered tall. The place of retreat these years may have been relatively hot, and my skin is no longer as fair as it was when I was a teenager, but instead has a healthy wheat color. His eyes are big and bright, and his hair is tied up high. At first glance, he gives the impression that he has a heroic appearance.
"Humph, my stupid brother, you have finally grown taller, but unfortunately you are still not as tall as your senior brother."
Liu Li did not go back to criticize Liu Xin, but in fact Liu Xin was extremely tall and well-proportioned, and he was a handsome young man no matter where he was. The height of 5 feet 6 inches (185cm) is only half a head shorter than Xuesheng's height of 5 feet 8 inches (191cm).
Liu Xin chuckled and put his hand on Liu Li's head to fight back. Liu Li punched Liu Xin directly in the armpit, and then the two began to go back and forth. After a few moves, the two began to use their internal strength again, and soon There was real fire again.
Liu Xin punched Liu Li in the eye socket, and Liu Li kicked Liu Xin in the abdomen. If Liu Xin hadn't withdrawn his strength in the end, Liu Xin would have entered the palace and become a eunuch.
Xuesheng watched silently from the side. He wanted to see how much Liu Xin's strength had improved in the past few years. They had not played against each other for a long time.
Brother Liu Xin and Liu Li were fighting with each other with almost no mercy at all, making Xiong Er and the others cower to the side without daring to say a word.
Except for Xiong Er and Gou San'er, the rest of them had never seen Liu Li, but at this moment Liu Li's status was directly fixed at the top. They respectfully call A Li and Li Jie in their hearts!
"Brother Xuesheng, does it really matter if they fight like this?" Xiao Qi, who has a relatively weak psychological endurance, came to Xuesheng's side timidly and asked in a low voice.
Xuesheng smiled, touched Xiao Qi's head, and said in a gentle voice:
"Ever since A Li chose to become a disciple of Demon Lord, Liu Xin and A Li have not dealt with each other and started fighting as soon as they met. But this is also a way for them to get along. Everything is within fists and kicks. Don't worry, they will fight well. Fierce, actually nothing will happen.”
Sure enough, not long after Xuesheng comforted Xiao Qi, Liu Xin and Liu Li's exchange of tricks began to become gentler. After all, the Monkey Stealing Peach that could be used when they were children could not be used now, nor could they go straight to Huanglong.
A Li has grown up!
This is Liu Xin's biggest emotion. Many parts can no longer be touched, which makes Liu Xin unable to let go, especially his face! When I was a child, I didn't care. After a fight, my face would always be so bruised and swollen that I couldn't even look at it. Now that Liu Li is a big girl, she can't be slapped in the face.
My brother has become weak!
This was Liu Li's idea. She felt that her brother had regressed greatly. She had already reduced her strength by three points, but she was still on par with him. When she was a child, she had to use all her strength to stay undefeated!
Finally, in order to save face for his brother, Liu Li turned over and fell to the ground after exchanging punches with Liu Xin. This frightened Liu Xin, but he immediately found that Liu Li's breathing was stable and did not seem to be injured. He immediately realized that this It's the younger sister who is giving herself the face of being an older brother.
My heart is full of joy, but my face is dirty.
"Hahahaha, you haven't done much in seclusion all these years."
Liu Li stood up with Xuesheng's help. Looking at Liu Xin's proud face, he suddenly leaned down and saluted and said:
"Brother is awesome, Liu Li is no match for you!"
Liu Xin was stunned for a moment, and then broke out in cold sweat. A Li was suddenly so polite to him, which actually made Liu Xin feel like he had fallen into an ice cave.
The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became extremely frozen.
"Okay, the stove that was prepared is about to be extinguished. You two have greeted each other. Let's eat first. If you have anything to say, we'll talk about it later!" Xuesheng waved her hand, and Liu Xin's six junior brothers immediately followed suit. Arrived at the small pavilion. In today's pavilion, there is a layer of white gauze wrapped around the pillars outside the pavilion, simply blocking the wind.
Before entering the pavilion, A Li came to Liu Xin and whispered:
"Brother, you have become weak. From now on, sister, I will protect you!"
After saying that, A Li entered the pavilion with a flick of his braid. Liu Xin was left alone to eat outside in the cold wind for a long time.
After the banquet to welcome A Li was over, Liu Xin and his six junior brothers returned to the Holy Sect. As for Liu Li, he will stay in the evil sect for a few more days, and then he will personally bring gifts to visit the leader of the Holy Sect.
The next seven days were filled with the Great Court Meeting. Although Liu Xin was responsible for organizing the meeting, he became idle when the Great Court Meeting actually started. While the competition was bustling outside, Liu Xin was called to the Holy Sect's study room by the elders.
The large study room is the core of the Holy Sect. There are millions of books in it, only a very small part of which are martial arts secrets, and the rest are various miscellaneous books. In these books, mountains and rivers are hidden, dynasties are hidden, and everything in the world is hidden. Liu Xin once joked that this place does not look like a martial arts sect, but more like an academy.
This is indeed the case. Liu Xin and the other disciples who are carefully selected to enter the inner sect of the Holy Sect must study, and the requirements are not low!
When Liu Xin arrived at the big study, he found that Xiong Er and the others, who were supposed to maintain law and order at the meeting, were also there, as well as several senior brothers from the Tianzi generation.
It can be said that as long as they are the inner disciples of the Tianzi generation and the Earth generation who remain in the Holy Sect, they are all in the big study at the moment.
Yan Chun, the senior disciple of the Tianzi generation, was leaning on the bookshelf, dozing off with his arms folded.
The person who held the meeting for them was Zhai Xuanjing, the elder of the Holy Sect Elders Association.
This senior is from Master Liu Xin's generation, a real senior, but Zhai Xuanjing, who is eighty years old, still has black hair, and some gray marks have only appeared in the black beard in the past two years. Such a person usually retreats higher up in Tianyun Peak, or goes out for wandering.
This group of talents is the foundation for the Holy Sect to truly become the number one sect on the right path.
Although Emperor Wu City is second, it does not have this kind of foundation that takes hundreds of years to develop. It can also be called confidence!
Zhai Xuanjing has a very hard body, a straight back, and a solemn face.
When everyone was there, he didn't talk nonsense and got straight to the point:
"I called you here today to announce a decision reached by the Council of Elders and the Sect Master. After this Holy Sect meeting is over, the Holy Sect will close the mountain.
And all of you disciples must join the officialdom. Of course, this officialdom is not just joining Zhengyang Chaotang, but can also be in other industries.
The reason for letting you become officials is also very simple. Through the intelligence collection of the secret investigation team, the Elder Council and the Sect Master discovered that the Zhengyang Dynasty was in the sunset. This decline is not the past prosperity and decline, but a real trend. The decline of destruction.
In order to protect our Holy Sect Yongchang, we made this decision together.
Your joining the officialdom is not in the hope of saving this country, but in order that when the Zhengyang Dynasty really collapses one day in the future, it will be more than just martial arts who can support the Holy Sect.
Of course you can choose the path you want to take, and the Covert Investigation Team will support you.
A word of advice, don’t think about finding a way out on your own, it’s very difficult. Especially on the eve of the empire's destruction, the whole world was in chaos.
Unless one of you is an ambitious traitor, king.
From what I know about you, there seems to be no such person among you! "
Elder Zhai Xuanjing spoke very quickly, almost without any pause, as if he poured a large basin of ice water on everyone's faces and then turned around and left, leaving no room for reaction.
After a long pause, Liu Xin came to his senses and wanted to ask something, but found that Zhai Xuanjing had disappeared.
Instead, Yan Chun held a stack of books. The top one was sealed with yellow paper, and the seal was sealed with sealant. This sealant was made by the secret method of the Holy Sect, which can ensure the confidentiality of this document.
Liu Xin knew at a glance that these were top-secret documents of the Holy Sect. On weekdays, only the elders besides his master could view them.
"Okay, I know you have a lot of questions. Mr. Zhai is here to inform you and show how seriously the whole sect attaches to this operation.
Let me answer your specific questions.
What I have in my hand are some secret arrangements made by the covert investigation team over the years. You must rely on these things if you want to become an official.
Next, I will enter the back room. If you have any questions, you can come to me first.
remember!
You can only choose your path once, so figure out which path you want to take. Of course, I will also answer your questions if you have any. There is plenty of time, so you can think about it slowly! "
Yan Chun went to the back room, leaving nearly twenty people standing there staring at each other.
