It’s no wonder that the leader of the Zuo Sect had doubts. After all, the reason why he and the “Guiyuan Sword Sect” were able to occupy the original mountain gate of the Yunying Sect was precisely because they had openly taken refuge with Young Master Li Yunfeng, the grandson of the head of the Li family.
The relationship between Li Yunfeng and Zhao Chen could not be called a harmonious relationship...it could even be said to be an enemy relationship.
Although the inside story is secret, the Zuo Sect Leader happens to be one of the insiders.
After hearing the sect leader's question, Tang Ying, another magic cultivator from the "Guiyuan Sword Sect", said after careful consideration:
"Sect Master, as far as my subordinates know, Zhao Chen and Yan Hongxia originally brought Yun Jiezi's body to receive the reward from the Yunying Sect, but they happened to encounter Yun Longzi's disciple who went crazy, and then discovered that he was possessed by demonic energy. tainted facts.
"They found Worry-free Valley based on this clue..."
As the intelligence director of the "Guiyuan Sword Sect", Tang Ying has spies buried in various factions near Sanhe Mountain, so he knows the movements of each faction very well.
However, before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the Zuo Sect Leader: "But something happened in Wuyou Valley?"
His expression is still a little uncertain.
Although Tang Ying was a little strange, he still replied: "Yes, according to a report from a disciple who happened to be near Wuyou Valley at that time, the formation in the valley suddenly became gloomy and evil, with demonic energy permeating the inside, and it was still faintly visible. There are monks attacking each other like crazy...
"It wasn't until Zhao Chen and Yan Hongxia arrived and broke the formation that the demonic energy gradually dissipated...
"But that disciple didn't dare to get close to observe, so we don't know what the current situation is in the valley."
The Zuo Sect Leader frowned and thought to himself: Can Zhao Chen and Yan Hongxia break through the Seven Emotions Fallen Demon Formation outside Wuyou Valley? Did Zheng Qingyan take action?
What on earth is that guy Lao Zhong doing... and why does he suddenly activate the formation? Even if Zhao Chen and Yan Hongxia discovered the clues and escaped secretly, why did they use such a drastic method?
In addition, how much did Zhao and Yan know about the matter? Could this invitation be a Hongmen Banquet?
After thinking over and over again, Zuo Hong finally decided to go. After all, Yan Hongxia had risen to the rank of Deputy Envoy of the Sixth Rank Examination, and Zhao Chen had supernatural powers behind him, so he couldn't afford to offend him.
If that bastard Li Yunfeng was willing to give me the "Cloud Crown", I'm afraid I would have found the treasure of the Heavenly Demon Sect in the past, and I wouldn't have gained nothing yet! Nor would he cooperate with a descendant of the Demon Sect of unknown origin like Lao Zhongtou...
Of course, I won't go to meet that bastard "love rival" with fear!
Zuo Hong thought angrily in his heart before setting off.
…
Due to the backlash caused by the previous shattering of the Seven Emotions Fallen Demon Formation, most of the buildings in the Worry-Free Valley have been destroyed.
For the sake of dignity, Zhao Chen took out the "Eight Treasures Tower" in Chaiyu Palace and enlarged it to receive the summoned heads of major forces and family heads.
——Although there are various "entertainment facilities" in Babao Tower, they are all on the upper floors. The lobby on the first floor is clean.
Among them, in addition to Zuo Hong of the "Guiyuan Sword Sect" and Yun Longzi Lao Dao of the "Yunying Sect", there are also the master of the Shizhai Village of the "Qingfeng Village", the head of the Sun Family, a local wealthy family in Yicheng, and Liu Xinghe, the chief minister of the City Lord's Mansion. .
As for the small forces that only have true energy and orifice refining monks, there are more, so I won’t go into details one by one.
The reason why Zhao Chen summoned the nearby forces had three main purposes.
First, tell the whole story clearly, so as not to take the blame for others inexplicably.
The second is the aftermath of Wuyou Valley... Since Li Changsheng entrusted this matter to himself and Sister Hongxia and gave them benefits, they can't just take the money and do nothing, can they?
Naturally, they had to help calculate the losses of various local forces and then report them to Li Changsheng... After all, this matter was ultimately caused by the internal fighting among the "Seven Heroes of Monan", so they had to take responsibility.
The third is to take the opportunity to observe the local forces in Yicheng, and then select one to support and indirectly control Wuyou Valley to facilitate his future exploration of the secrets that may be hidden here.
Although Zhao Chen prefers Yunying Sect, Yun Longzi is a veteran and doesn't have much ambition, so he may not be willing...
After sorting out their thoughts, Zhao Chen and Sister Hongxia discussed briefly, and the latter presided over the "temporary meeting", while Zhao Chen sat aside and observed everyone attending the meeting.
——On the surface, Zhao Chen is still Yan Hongxia's subordinate. It is not appropriate for him to preside over this kind of occasion, nor can he convince the public.
"The master of the Stone Village of 'Qingfeng Village' seems to have no ambitions. As long as the compensation is in place and he can occupy a place in Wuyou Valley in the future, he will have no problem...
"The head of the Sun family is quite active in rebuilding Wuyou Valley, but he frequently looks at the left sect leader of the 'Guiyuan Sword Sect', obviously he has to look at his eyes before he dares to act.
"Liu Da, the head of the City Lord's Mansion, seems to be indifferent, but he is also secretly making eye contact with the Zuo Sect Master... That's right. I heard that the City Lord of Yicheng was only able to take office because of Li Yunfeng's relationship. His head of the city has a relationship with Zuo Hong. Intersection is normal.
"Old Taoist Yun Longzi is still the same, kind and gentle, and doesn't want to offend anyone...
"Finally, this Zuo Sect Master... Huh? His foundation seems to be some kind of 'demon energy'?"
Just when Yan Hongxia said that Lao Zhong was a bone demon puppet and launched a large formation to trap the "Green Robe Master" Li Changsheng, Zhao Chen's "Dongxu Eye" keenly noticed something strange in Zuo Hong.
This Zuo Hong, like Ma Laoer, is also a descendant of the Four Demon Sects?
Guiyuan Sword Sect... Guiyuan, is it possible that the three demons are united into one and transformed into a heavenly demon?
Well, on the surface, he took refuge in Li Yunfeng and helped him find the secrets that the "Cloud Crown" might hide. In fact, he was searching for the location of the Heavenly Demon Sect's lower court in an honest and fair manner!
Thinking of this, Zhao Chen looked away to avoid being noticed by the other party and alerting the enemy, but he made a decision in his heart: It's you!
At the same time, on the top of the second floor of Babao Building, a crystal chandelier with two trays hanging on both ends appeared quietly.
On the other side, after counting the losses of each family, Yan Hongxia was about to announce the end of the meeting when she suddenly received a message from Zhao Chen. She couldn't help but change the subject and said with a smile: "I got some new cultivation items here... …It’s rare for everyone to get together, so how about holding a small auction?”
Hearing this, everyone smiled one after another, and there were many who secretly mocked him.
The so-called "new" cultivation items, no need to ask, you know that they were looted in the market of Wuyou Valley... However, each family's losses were compensated by the Li family, so they did not pursue them.
And it’s good to be able to buy it back now, otherwise it will be very troublesome to raise it again.
In short, with the unanimous consent of everyone, the small auction went very smoothly. Most people got something and left with satisfaction...
Only the leader of the Zuo Hong Sect, after leaving Wuyou Valley, took a detour and returned to the Babao Tower, where he knelt down in front of Zhao Chen.
