Ningxia froze.
She just said: Why does she look familiar? There was a familiar feeling from the beginning...
It's really not obvious just by looking at the appearance. I just feel that the eyebrows are a bit familiar. Only when she looked into those eyes did she completely understand where this familiar feeling came from.
Isn't it the old man who asked her to deliver the relics?
Even though he has been dead for so many years, he still looks handsome and elegant, which shows how handsome he was in his lifetime.
The fifth family's Chongzi Zhenren also looks good, but he's still average. After all, there are few people in the world of cultivation who are not handsome or beautiful.
Even if the skin and bones are not good, if you develop a white body and use it with immortal magic and Taoism, you can still have a somewhat transcendent and elegant temperament.
Compared with the brother who entrusted her to her, this Chongzi real person's appearance is still too ordinary. Except that everyone has the fifth surname, it is difficult to connect the two in Ningxia.
But now, Ning Xia changed her mind after seeing the other party's eyes. This Chongzi Zhenren's eyes, no matter the shape, pupil color, or even the starry glow in them, are so familiar, so similar to the one in the City of the Living Dead.
The fifth family, Yun Dao, the main line, the eyes of the same mold... Ningxia herself didn't believe it if she said it didn't matter.
So what is the relationship between this person and her "client"? Clan, father and son, or brothers? Questions popped up one after another in Ningxia's mind, scrambling for answers.
"...His name, I remember it seems to be a single purple character."
————Replace immediately Replace immediately——
What kind of special person could attract such attention from a Nascent Soul Lord? Even Tiancong Zhenjun said the same thing, he must not be an ordinary character.
"I don't know what fellow Taoist Tiancong said..." Zhenjun Yuanheng said in confusion.
"The leading monk of the fifth family, whose Taoist name is Chongzi, is one of the outstanding alchemists of the younger generation in southern Xinjiang. He has been very popular in recent years." Zhenjun Tiancong and Zhenjun Yuanheng learned about this real person 's life.
He is indeed an outstanding monk, especially at alchemy. Even some Nascent Soul-level alchemists cannot compare with him, which shows his level of alchemy.
However, Ningxia felt that this was so powerful that it was not enough to attract so many people's attention. She just listened, and there must be something else behind what those people said.
"This... almost became the patriarch of the fifth family back then." When talking about this True Monarch Tiancong, an expression similar to gossip inevitably appeared on his face, which seemed to be curious and yet he seemed to be keeping secrets.
Ning Xia noticed that the other party's voice was very soft and his expression was a little strange, but he quickly hid it deep down so that no one would notice.
Ningxia's group was far away from the seats of the fifth family, and the two elders were highly cultivated, so there was no need to avoid the juniors. When Zhenjun Tiancong saw Zhenjun Yuanheng's interest, he actually told him this almost semi-public secret on the spot.
The fifth family is the Tu Emperor of Yun Island. It is said that they have been entrenched on this affiliated island as early as when the Shenluo Sect was still there. It just changed from the garrison family back then to the family that rules the entire Cloud Island today.
During the melee in southern Xinjiang, they survived the disaster with the help of their excellent geographical location and foundation. However, it suffered an unprecedented blow. In order to stabilize the situation, this loose and scattered family could only be twisted into a rope, and the common area came from pressure from all aspects.
Over the years, this not prosperous family has become the well-deserved ruler of Cloud Island today, and has experienced many unimaginable hardships. It even left a lot of hidden dangers for the blood of future generations.
As I said before, the fifth family is a family with a stagnant population, so it is impossible to rely on the children of the family to develop its power like those big families with a prosperous population.
The ancestors of their generation were not willing to become a stepping stone for others, so they ruthlessly absorbed a large number of people with other surnames into the family, gave them surnames, and entered them into the family tree. Then rely on these people with other surnames to develop the power of the fifth family.
The results were fruitful. The fifth family grew rapidly, gradually wiping out the surrounding forces and becoming the leading force on Cloud Island. After several years of evolution of the situation, the fifth family has now firmly established itself as the leading force in southern Xinjiang.
But the decisions made for development at that time still left a lot of hidden dangers for the fifth company.
Even though the tribe has sacrificed several generations of women to contact these people with foreign surnames, there are still only a few monks in the tribe who actually have the blood of the fifth family, and most of them are foreign monks who have changed their names. A few generations later, these foreign monks who had completely given the fifth surname had no reason to marry within the clan. Their descendants were still essentially from outside the clan.
Over several generations, it is inevitable that the members of the fifth family will be cannibalized by large forces other than their own. How can those who truly have the blood of the fifth family be willing to accept this?
If the inheritance that their ancestors had worked so hard for was just like this to be advantageous to outsiders, they would not have the dignity to meet their ancestors.
In order to ensure that their power does not fall apart, they strictly distinguish the branches of the main line, formulate extremely strict rules, and gradually "domesticate" the thoughts of side branches and even the main line. Over time, some effects were achieved, and the true bloodline of the fifth family actually survived in such a dangerous way.
To this day, they are still a magical family with a sparse main line but huge branch forces. However, although their clan is weak in numbers, their bloodline talents are very good.
So the question is, why has this person not taken over the authority of the fifth family from his father as usual? Is it really because the patriarch of the fifth family of this generation is greedy for power, as the world has rumored?
Tiancong Zhenjun revealed to them a piece of gossip that many people didn't know.
According to him, in fact, the Chongzi Master should have taken over the authority of the family many years ago, but it was only delayed until now because of an incident many years ago.
This year is the last year to settle that past incident. After this time, maybe the fifth family will usher in a new family, the long-awaited one...
Zhenjun Tiancong seemed to just treat these things as gossip and chatted with Zhenjun Yuanheng, as if he didn't care about his position at all, nor did he feel that he had revealed some unspeakable news.
It's just that the listener can't really be unintentional.
After listening to the words of Zhenjun Tiancong, Ning Xia unconsciously looked at the opposite seat, and inadvertently met the eyes of the person involved in the gossip. Before she could look away, she was stunned when she met those clear eyes that had a vague sense of familiarity.
Compared with the brother who entrusted her to her, this Chongzi real person's appearance is still too ordinary. Except that everyone has the fifth surname, it is difficult to connect the two in Ningxia.
But now, Ning Xia changed her mind after seeing the other party's eyes. This heavy purple person has eyes, both in shape and pupil color.
