The Zhao family is a special family in Central China because it neither approaches Tiandao Sect nor shows favor to Tianxiang Pavilion. It is considered a neutral family. There are many such families in Central China.
Generally speaking, any family that can remain neutral in Central China will have at least one person who has surpassed the peak of the Mountaineering Realm to guard the family. Otherwise, they will not remain neutral.
Life like this used to be very peaceful, with each family developing and improving its own strength, but today's Zhao family is anything but peaceful.
Although the Demon Sect in Central China was severely suppressed by Tiandao Sect, the leader of the world's righteous path, the Demon Sect in Central China was also the gathering place for all the strongest demon cultivators on the entire continent.
No, five people are coming to the Zhao family at this moment.
Five strong men at the peak of the mountaineering realm. With this lineup, an ordinary family cannot withstand the arrival of such a strong man.
However, the Zhao family also responded appropriately. Except for the strong man who had surpassed the peak of the mountaineering realm, almost all the strong men in the family showed up.
Marshal Zhao was also helpless. This was the territory governed by the Tiandao Sect, the righteous way of the world, but the Demon Sect dared to appear in the Zhao family openly, and five powerful Ji Dao men also came. It was obvious that something big was going on.
"Welcome the Princess of the Demon Sect." Zhao Shuai saluted respectfully.
Shangguan Wan'er, the leader, waved his hand and walked towards the Zhao family.
Zhao Shuai did not blame the Demon Sect for being rude. Although the Zhao family had strong men who surpassed Ji Dian, didn't the Demon Sect not have them? Not to mention the current Zhao family, even if the Zhao family is ten times stronger, it is still no match for the Demon Sect, not to mention that it is indeed not the place to talk outside the gate at this moment.
Shangguan Wan'er and her entourage soon arrived at the Zhao family's lobby. Shangguan Wan'er then politely said: "Master Zhao, as the saying goes that you don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything, the Bixing Demon Sect comes to the Zhao family, so it is naturally the same."
"Princess, please give me your instructions." Of course Zhao Shuai did not dare to refuse. The Demon Sect acted most directly and did as they pleased. It was better not to provoke such a group of people.
"No, Master Zhao has misunderstood." Although Shangguan Wan'er knew that the world was afraid of the Demon Sect, Shangguan Wan'er wouldn't have wanted to act like this if it wasn't because it concerned her brother.
Shangguan Wan'er said: "A few days ago, I heard that there is an animal skin in your family..."
Shangguan Wan'er said, using her mental power to condense an aura similar to that of animal skin in the air, and said, "I wonder if the Zhao family leader can part ways with her?"
Zhao Shuai looked at the image of the animal skin condensed by Shangguan Wan'er, but his heart was in a state of confusion. He didn't know anything about this piece of animal skin.
He knows very well, because this piece of animal skin is regarded as the most cherished thing by his ancestors. It was also because of the unique aura left on this piece of animal skin that his ancestors broke through the mountaineering realm. Only then can the Zhao family be as prosperous as it is now.
but now……
Zhao Shuai was struggling in his heart. Let alone the family, if he said the words of rejection, it would mean that the Zhao family would offend the Demon Sect. However, if he did not refuse, the ancestor would lose this piece of land. animal skins.
I remember my ancestor once said that there is an opportunity hidden in this animal skin, an opportunity that is enough for the Zhao family to take off.
"Master Zhao?" Shangguan Wan'er warned, because at this moment, Zhao Shuai's eyes were very strange, and Shangguan Wan'er was even sure that the Zhao family definitely owned the kind of animal skins Yang Ning showed her.
"Uh..." Marshal Zhao came to his senses, apologized to Shangguan Wan'er, and said, "Princess, I'm sorry, I just thought about the Zhao family, but I have never seen anything similar to this kind of animal skin. I’ve never smelled it either.”ωωw..net
Obviously, Zhao Shuai has made a choice. This is Zhongshenzhou, where Tiandao Sect is guarding. Even if the Demon Sect acts toughly or recklessly, Zhao Shuai feels that as long as he does not admit it, then the Demon Sect will. I don't dare to target the Zhao family.
"Oh?" But it was someone behind Shangguan Wan'er who suddenly said.
"Master Zhao, do you want to think about it before you speak?" The person who spoke was the Zuo Protector of the Demon Sect, and a powerful demonic power was emanating from his body, already coming towards Marshal Zhao.
Zhao Shuai had obviously anticipated this outcome and hurriedly apologized: "Princess, our Zhao family really does not have this kind of animal skin. Even if the Demon Sect comes and destroys my Zhao family, it will not help..."
Zhao Shuai has made up his mind. As long as he refuses to admit it, he believes that the Demon Sect will be unable to do anything to him.
"Uncle Zuo, there is no need to force others to do something difficult." At this moment, Shangguan Wan'er spoke up and stopped Protector Zuo.
"Since Patriarch Zhao said no, then there must be no." Shangguan Wan'er, wrapped in plain blue clothes, cupped her hands towards Marshal Zhao and said, "Patriarch Zhao, if that's the case, then there will be a lot of trouble."
After Shangguan Wan'er finished speaking, she took the four of them directly and prepared to leave.
"The arrival of the princess has brought great joy to the Zhao family. No matter what, the Zhao family must respect the friendship of the landlord." Zhao Shuai was very polite and pretended to keep five strong men from the Demon Sect.
It's surprising, but it makes sense.
After all, a strong man from the Demon Sect has arrived without even drinking a cup of tea, so there is no problem in being polite.
But Zhao Shuai soon regretted what he said.
"Since the Zhao family leader is so generous, the five of us will bother the Zhao family leader." Shangguan Wan'er was very polite, but followed Zhao Shuai's words and sat down directly on the seats on both sides of the hall.
"Uh..." Zhao Shuai sighed inwardly, wishing he could slap himself in the mouth.
"Come here, serve tea." Zhao Shuai could only serve him helplessly. Women are the most difficult to serve. As expected, the ancients said that I should not be bullied...
Under Zhao Shuai's warm hospitality, the five of them were actually allowed to stay at Zhao's house as guests by Shangguan Wan'er, who took advantage of her woman's privileges.
Zhao Shuai already understood that there must be a flaw in him somewhere, and the Demon Sect had already received the news, so it was obvious that the Demon Sect stayed here just to get more information.
"Hey..." Zhao Shuai sighed, knowing that the Zhao family, which had been peaceful for a long time, might be caught in the whirlpool of something.
It was night, and under the darkness of night, Zhao Shuai could only bite the bullet and head to the Zhao family's ancestral land, which was the place where his ancestors retreated. Unless it was a life-and-death moment for the family's survival, otherwise according to the ancestor's prohibition, they must not be disturbed.
But Zhao Shuai knew that he had to interrupt now, because the Zhao family was already involved in something uncontrollable.
"My grandson Zhao Shuai, please see my ancestor." Zhao Huai bowed to the ground and faced a hazy cave. The scenery there was vaguely distinguishable. It was a small hill, but it was surrounded by formations, making it difficult to explore its true appearance.
It took a long time for the sound to be heard, and then an ancient voice came from the hazy cave.
"What are the descendants of this generation doing?"
"Ancestor, can you allow your descendants to enter the cave to report in detail?" Zhao Shuai said respectfully.
After a while, the haze entering the cave gradually became clear, and Zhao Shuai hurriedly passed through the formation and entered the cave.
In the dark, Shangguan Wan'er and Zuo Hufa had been following Shuai Zhao secretly until they saw the scene just now.
"Princess, we..." Guardian Zuo asked.
"Uncle Zuo, ask the sect for help. The Zhao family has a presence beyond the mountaineering realm. Grandpa Zuo and Grandpa You must take action." Shangguan Wan'er said.
"Princess, do we need to target the Zhao family like this?" Guardian Zuo looked at Shangguan Wan'er. After all, in his understanding, although the Zhao family cannot compare with the Demon Sect, it is still a powerful force. It's unwise.
"Uncle Zuo, just go ahead and do it. I must get that piece of animal skin." Shangguan Wan'er stared closely at the hazy cave under the formation.
"What is the function of that animal skin?" Guardian Zuo was puzzled. The princess of the Demon Sect had disappeared from the Demon Sect for nearly thirty years. However, just a few days ago, Shangguan Wan'er took the initiative to join the Demon Sect and then transferred This somewhat dissatisfied the strong people of the Demon Sect. However, under the suppression of the left and right guardians, the dissatisfied voices of the Demon Sect were soon stopped. However, at this moment, the left guardian could not help but feel a little confused.
"Uncle Zuo, please believe me, okay?" Shangguan Wan'er did not explain. Although she was still somewhat wary of Yang Ning in this life, it was related to the possibility of her brother's resurrection. Shangguan Wan'er did not I will refuse, let alone refuse.
"Princess, I..." Guardian Zuo hesitated.
"Uncle Zuo, please go back. Remember to bring the news to me so that Grandpa Zuo and Grandpa You can make their own decisions." Shangguan Wan'er was a little angry, and then her figure disappeared into the dark night.
Guardian Zuo was very helpless and shook his head. Although the princess was the princess of the Demon Sect, she was still a princess, not to mention that the Demon Sect was originally a mess. In addition, Split Sky had disappeared for more than ten years, which made the Demon Sect even more disunited.
"Forget it, I'll just go back." Guardian Zuo also disappeared into the dark night.
Tiandao Mountain is still majestic and will not change due to the failure of some people or the anger of some people.
The most authentic Tiandao Sect is even more unbeatable. It stands on Tiandao Mountain. Tiandao Mountain is also famous in the mainland for Tiandao Sect.
Yang Ning has been in seclusion since he killed Daxuan Zi Chenxian. Because of the tribulation, Yang Ning's aura was a little empty. In order to consolidate his cultivation, Yang Ning could only miss the arena between Yang Zhen and Daozi Xuance. fighting.
But at this moment, the result of the battle between Yang Zhen and Xuance has appeared.
Yang Zhen was defeated, but Xuance was also defeated miserably.
But tonight, a guest appeared in the attic where Yang Ning was retreating.
"Wan'er?" Yang Ning was surprised. She was in seclusion and the barrier she had set up was a special technique from her past life. In her past life and this life, there was no one else but one person.
Since Shangguan Wan'er entered the room, she has been choosing to look at Yang Ning quietly, as if she wanted to see more of the familiar aura that she longed for in Yang Ning.
Shangguan Wan'er remained quiet, looking at Yang Ning with a calm expression.
"Did you encounter any problems?" Yang Ning knew Shangguan Wan'er well, and she also understood the position of Split Sky in Shangguan Wan'er's heart. When she appeared here at this moment, there must be some problems that could not be solved.
"Ning, you..." Shangguan Wan'er felt the familiar feeling.
But soon, Shangguan Wan'er suppressed the impulse in her heart, opened the window of the room, looked at the night outside the window, and said softly: "I found the animal skin you mentioned in the Zhao family, but the Zhao family was unwilling to give it to me. "
"It turns out to be the Zhao family." Yang Ning thought of his past life. Yang Ning had met the ancestors of the Zhao family several times, and it was not a close friendship. However, the ancestor of the Zhao family had a favor with Ning Zun in the previous life.
"Since the animal skin has been found, I think..." Yang Ning hesitated. After all, his current identity cannot be compared with his previous life.
"Don't worry about it, I will solve it." Shangguan Wan'er naturally knew Yang Ning's difficulties.
"Is there a problem with the Demon Sect?" Yang Ning already understood.
"They..." Shangguan Wan'er finally showed her daughter's appearance, looking a little aggrieved.
"Wan'er..." Yang Ning could no longer suppress the lovesickness in her heart and held Shangguan Wan'er in her arms.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of everything." Yang Ning felt the warmth of her delicate body in her arms, feeling guilty for a moment.
Shangguan Wan'er was obviously a little resistant, because after all, this body was not the Yang Ning she was familiar with, but she resisted for a few times and quickly calmed down.
