"There's not much difference between a dagger and a sword. Why can't I get used to it? Talent is such a strange thing..." Chu Zhongan said with a self-deprecating smile.
Wang Hua vomited blood and struggled desperately, but Chu Zhongan's strength was so great that he was nailed to the ground by the Setting Sun Sword. All his movements were just a fight between trapped animals, and he could only feel the passage of life in pain.
Chu Zhongan said without a trace of pity on his face: "Are you desperate? Do you know how desperate those young geniuses you killed must be!"
Wang Hua was speechless. He stared at Chu Zhongan with hatred, and soon took his last breath.
Chu Zhongan checked carefully and confirmed that Wang Hua was completely dead. He took out a stack of paper from his arms and threw it next to the body.
After doing this, Chu Zhongan stopped staying and turned to leave. From the beginning to the end, no one from the Sunset Sect except Wang Hua noticed Chu Zhongan's arrival.
However, after Chu Zhongan left, a figure appeared beside Wang Hua out of thin air. This was an old man wearing ordinary armor of the Great Shun City Guards and carrying a spear.
He has an ordinary appearance and is similar in age to Wang Hua. He is probably over fifty. This old man does not have any internal strength or energy and blood fluctuations. No matter from every aspect, he is an ordinary veteran.
But such an old man, with Chu Zhongan's methods, was not aware of his existence at all.
The veteran knelt down and picked up the paper left by Chu Zhongan and read it.
"I see. I didn't expect this kid to be quite narrow-minded. He is somewhat similar to the nosy temperament of that old bastard Gu Changting..." the veteran said to himself with a smile on his face.
In the next moment, this mysterious veteran had appeared above the Sunset Palace. His speed was simply unbelievable. What was even more frightening was that the old man was not standing on the top of the hall, but floating in the air.
"The appearance is somewhat similar to Gu Changting's, and there are fluctuations in the power of reincarnation in his body. In addition, he knows that I will hide in Shun's army. This kid is most likely a descendant of Gu Changting." The veteran said thoughtfully. road.
"Look at this attitude, Gu Changting is going to give me an apprentice? This old bastard hasn't come to fight with me for more than ten years, and now he wants to throw the little bastard to me. He is really a bastard!" He became angrier as he spoke. Stomping down hard, a big hole was opened in the Sunset Palace with a "bang" sound.
The veteran shrank his neck and glanced at his body, a little embarrassed, and then he became even more furious and said: "It's all my fault, Gu Changting, this bastard, otherwise I'm so smart, how could I have made such a low-level mistake? I'm so angry, so angry." !”
This old man didn’t even scold Chu Zhongan’s grandfather with bad words...
At this moment, disciples from the Sunset Sect began to patrol and arrived in front of the Sunset Palace. The veteran immediately ran away and disappeared.
Floating in the air and escaping looks somewhat funny.
The veteran did not go far. He stopped after leaving the Sunset Gate for a while, stood in the air and narrowed his eyes slightly: "Since Gu Laogou dares to hand over his junior to me, then I will give this boy a hard time, and work with this boy It doesn’t matter if you join the Dragon Elephant Army, those beasts from Wu Zhao dare to come to Dashun and run wild, they are just looking for death!”
Speaking of Wu Zhao, a strong murderous aura erupted from his body, and just by accidentally leaking it, the people for miles around woke up from their sleep.
"First it's Gu Changting and then the Wu Zhao beast. There are so many things to worry about today. No, I have to go to the Zhuangyuan Building to recite poems and write poems. Relax!" The veteran was very angry at first, then his expression became frivolous, and he floated away. Go and disappear in an instant.
That night, the Sunset City Guards discovered that a veteran had suddenly disappeared. Naturally, not many people paid attention to such a small incident. It only caused some small waves and no one mentioned it again. The veteran never appeared again.
Just when the veteran went to Zui Xiaoyao, the Sunset Gate was already in chaos. The patrolling disciples found eight guards who had fainted in front of the Sunset Palace. They did not dare to enter the temple rashly, so they had to call the gate steward.
Under the influence of the veteran's murderous intent, everyone at Sunset Gate woke up. The steward quickly led people into the hall and found Wang Hua's body and the paper on the ground.
The papers left by Chu Zhongan were evidence that Wang Hua instructed Wang Tianlong to poison the geniuses in Sunset City.
After more than ten years of operation, Jin'an's intelligence network has spread all over the Central Plains. With the blessing of Mohist methods, the intelligence capabilities of this force have become comparable to the Galaxy Sect's Seven Killing Battalion.
Even if Wang Tianlong, the gangster leader, is careful, he can't do things without leakage. It is not very difficult for Jin'an's secret agents to find evidence.
In the Sunset Palace, the stewards of the Sunset Sect gathered together. All ordinary disciples were turned away. However, Zhang Qiuhao, as the only direct disciple of the sect leader, had a high status and was allowed to enter the palace.
Wang Hua's body was placed on the right side of the hall, and the Setting Sun Sword and the papers recording evidence were placed on a wooden table not far away. The left side of the hall was trampled by veterans. It was a mess, and everyone was Surrounded by Wang Hua's body.
An old man who looked quite virtuous stood in front of the table and said: "You have all seen the contents of these papers. Wang Hua died unjustly today. I didn't expect the leader to do such an outrageous thing!"
He adjusted his breathing with a sullen face, as if he was very angry. After a while, he said: "Wang Hua is dead when he is dead. Now there are two issues before us, both of which are related to Hu Hua." The rise and fall of sects!”
Everyone stared at the old man with solemn expressions. None of them spoke, waiting for the old man's next words.
The old man picked up the Setting Sun Sword in front of him and said: "The Setting Sun Sect has been passed down for hundreds of years. The Setting Sun Sword has always been the master's sword. Now that Wang Hua has died unjustly, the sect must choose a new master of the Setting Sun Sword, one who is worthy of this sword. people!"
The whole place was silent. It was about the selection of the leader, and everyone was cautious about their words and actions.
"Uncle-Master, you are the ancestor, as long as we all support the person you elect!" a steward said.
"Yes, we all listen to our uncle. We guys have mediocre qualifications and poor cultivation, and we are not as accurate as our uncle in judging people. How can we dare to point fingers at the position of the leader!" Another one who looked about the same age as Wang Hua The steward spoke.
Seeing someone starting to talk, everyone started talking, but few people recommended candidates, and even if someone mentioned the name, it was mostly a joke. They all supported the old man appointing the leader.
This old man's name is Zhu Jianying. Although his strength is not high and he is only in the middle stage of Jinjing Realm, he is the only remaining ancestor of the Sunset Sect.
Zhu Jianying did not refuse in the end. He motioned for everyone to be silent, and then said: "Since you all trust me, an old guy, today I will rely on my old skills and sell my old skills for once. The position of leader is not a piece of cake. If you want to choose, you must choose one with good temperament, cultivation, and qualifications." The best disciple to serve as!"
Everyone looked at the old man quietly, and the atmosphere was a little tense. Only Zhang Qiuhao kept staring at Wang Hua's body lying on the ground, his face extremely ugly.
Wang Hua did something wrong. He may have felt sorry for the sect and Sunset City, but Zhang Qiuhao knew that he was really good to him and taught each other all his skills. The relationship between the two of them as master and disciple was quite deep.
It was naturally sad to see his master die tragically, but at the same time he knew that his master was not a good person. Zhang Qiuhao was suffering from inner pain.
"I'm going to announce that the next candidate to be the leader is...Qiu Hao!" Zhu Jianying said loudly.
It is unexpected but also reasonable. Although Zhang Qiuhao is still young, as a direct disciple of the sect leader, he has the strength to advance to the advanced level. His future is bright. If he can break through to the master level one day, the Sunset Sect can also rise with the tide.
"I'm afraid it's not right to give the position of head to Qiu Hao like this!" A steward said worriedly. He looked at Zhang Qiuhao and continued: "Qiu Hao, my uncle is not targeting you, but after such a big thing happened to your master, Zong The sect cannot rule out the possibility of your involvement without a thorough investigation, so you need to be careful when choosing the leader!"
This steward is very popular on weekdays and has a good relationship with Zhang Qiuhao. He is the only steward who is not afraid of being resented by the future boss if he says such a thing at this time.
Zhang Qiuhao said in a gentle tone: "Uncle Master is right. I know that I can't clear away the suspicion immediately, so I ask Uncle Master to carefully consider the position of leader..." His attitude was sincere and he didn't seem to have much interest in the position of leader. .
Zhu Jianying said: "Qiu Hao, don't refuse in a hurry. Whether you have the qualifications will be revealed soon. Let's wait together..."
After saying this, he stopped talking, and the others naturally did not raise any objections. Everyone was waiting with different expressions.
Sure enough, after only half a stick of incense had passed, someone shouted outside the main hall: "Reporting to Grand Master's uncle, it has been found out that the Tianlong Gang was wiped out tonight, and only one person is left alive!"
"Thank you for your hard work, please step back!" Zhu Jianying said, his expression obviously relaxed.
Then Zhu Jianying smiled and said: "As expected, the person who killed Wang Hua wanted to avenge the genius masters who died unjustly, so he successively destroyed Wang Hua and the Tianlong Gang, and was able to kill Wang Hua quietly. , if Qiu Hao is also involved, he will naturally die!"
"Since Qiu Hao is still standing here alive and kicking, it proves that this matter has nothing to do with him, and the suspicion has been cleared!" Zhu Jianying said in an unquestionable tone.
After a moment of silence, everyone started talking, and all they said was nothing more than praising the old man and agreeing with Wang Qiuhao to succeed him as the leader.
Zhu Jianying signaled everyone to silence again, then walked up to Zhang Qiuhao with the Setting Sun Sword and said: "Qiuhao, my uncle is optimistic about you. Work hard in the future, Sunset Gate will depend on you!"
"This..." Zhang Qiuhao was very hesitant. He had not taken over the master's sword for a long time.
Zhu Jianying frowned and said, "Qiu Hao, what do you mean? Do you want to refuse?"
Zhang Qiuhao's expression became even more ugly. After thinking for a moment, he said: "Master, uncle, it is a disciple's honor to serve as the head of the Sunset Sect, but I have something to ask for!"
"Put it out quickly!" the old man said angrily. He was bargaining at such a critical moment. Zhang Qiuhao's image in his heart was a little worse. He couldn't help but have some doubts about the recommendation of Zhang Qiuhao.
Zhang Qiuhao clasped his fists and saluted the stewards and said, "This disciple cannot accept the position of head now. It will take me three years!"
