Perhaps due to his excitement, Xiang Hongyu's words sounded unusually loud, and even the uproar was suppressed.
Xiang Shu heard it clearly and his face darkened.
After obtaining the secret method of "Transformation", she no longer needs to go back and become a casual cultivator from now on. So along the way, she was also wavering in her heart, wondering whether to take the risk of returning to Xiang Hongyu whose purpose was unknown.
At this moment, there is no need to worry anymore.
It's just that the upper limit of the "Three Methods of Realization" is extremely low, and there is no way out after reaching the foundation building stage. The orthodox spiritual methods of cultivating the truth are all monopolized by the sect. If she cannot return to the Blazing Sect, she will not be able to modify higher-level mental methods.
Although the Eight-Rank Zhen Sect's Heart Method from Lu Zhu's mouth was tempting, it was still stored in the Lu family's ancestral land. She had no hope from the beginning.
I can only think of another way.
Thinking of this, Xiang Shen gathered his thoughts, jumped off the earth wall and left.
In the courtyard of the earth building, Yuan Zhong heard Xiang Hongyu's sincere words, and his anger also subsided. Finally, he no longer continued to cause trouble with the attitude of embarrassing everyone, and walked into the earth building with his sleeves rolled up.
Seeing that there was no excitement to be seen, the casual cultivators gradually dispersed.
Half an hour later, Yuan Zhong took a sip of tea with a dry mouth and finally explained the whole story clearly.
Xiang Hongyu listened with a stiff face, and his whole body fell into a strong shock.
He never expected that the seemingly well-behaved Xiang Shu would be so bold as to deceive the elders of the inner sect.
"Jie Jie, this little girl is really interesting. Compared to you, she is a bit less talented, but her character is unique. Maybe she is more suitable to be my disciple."
The old voice in the sea of consciousness had a hint of smile: "Your rival Touguan Yuanzhi has probably taken action. She knew in advance that she could come up with such a way to deceive the token for going down the mountain. It is really rare."
Xiang Hongyu was not happy at all when he heard the praise from the old man in the sea of consciousness, and even felt a hint of jealousy.
Although the old man's behavior is more like a demon, he has long regarded the old man as his master in his heart. He has never neglected him for more than ten years, but he has never heard a word of praise from his mouth.
"Senior, Xiang Shu...she is just a furnace!"
The black light in Xiang Hongyu's eyes flashed away, and he suddenly smiled in his consciousness: "Don't worry, that little girl is just a mortal and can't run very far.
Yuan Zhong couldn't find her because he was stupid. When I regain some strength in my ancestral land, I will be able to find her in a short time after returning. Even if she dies, I can capture her soul and throw it elsewhere, without delaying your cultivation. "
Hearing what the old man said, Xiang Hongyu finally looked relaxed, "Thank you, senior."
While the two were talking secretly, Shu Gaoming sat aside and patiently listened to Yuan Zhong's story, and he also felt a little interested in Xiang Shu.
Guan Yuanzhi was deprived of his seat among the top ten disciples by Xiang Hongyu, and he was so angry that he came up with such a ridiculous plan.
After this period of contact, he saw that Xiang Hongyu had morality in his heart, but he was definitely not a person who would be swayed by emotions. Even if he killed Xiang Shen, it would probably not have any impact on Xiang Hongyu. On the contrary, Guan Yuanzhi himself was afraid that he would be mentally disturbed by this.
Let’s talk about the little mortal girl Xiang Shu who has never met before...
Shu Gaoming glanced at Yuan Zhong who was drinking tea, thoughtfully.
If he were to put himself in her shoes, I probably wouldn't be able to do any better than that little girl. Although Yuan Zhong is stupid, he is not gullible enough to trust a stranger. How did she gain Yuan Zhong's trust?
What is this Yuan Zhong hiding?
I'm afraid that he didn't hesitate to use his ancestral connections to rush here at all costs, not just because of anger, but also because of something else, right?
Over a cup of tea, Shu Gaoming figured out the cause and effect, cleared his throat, and said with a warm smile: "Yuan Zhong, speaking of this matter, it is indeed you who have been wronged. Once the matter here is settled, I will Hong Yu assigned it to you, how about you continue to look for that girl?"
Yuan Zhong became anxious when he heard this, "But..."
"No buts."
Shu Gaoming smiled faintly and said, "Yuan Zhong, do you really think that I am afraid of your master? Leaving the sect without authorization, I turned a blind eye for the sake of your master. Do you want me to abandon the sect's sent me?" You have to find a mortal for your important task, and you want me to bear the charge of poor command?"
At the end of his words, a suffocating pressure suddenly appeared around Shu Gaoming, and the entire earth building fell into deathly silence.
Yuan Zhong's expression suddenly changed, and he knelt down without saying a word, "Junior brother, you don't dare!"
He secretly screamed in his heart, how could he have forgotten that this person seemed easy to get along with, but in fact, his methods were the most ruthless among the true disciples.
I think back then, this man was not a true disciple, but he could kill an entire Demon Sect with a smile. His actions were so cruel that even the Demon Sect disciples were frightened.
He was just lucky and accidentally became a registered disciple under his master. Even if Shu Gaoming really killed him on a whim, the master would be unhappy at most and would not say anything.
Yuan Zhong couldn't hear Shu Gaoming speak for a long time. The more he thought about it, the more flustered he felt, and he quickly continued to speak to make amends: "Brother, it's my brother who got carried away. I hope you can forgive me! Although my brother is old and frail, fortunately he is still at the peak of foundation building. And With some level of cultivation, I don’t know if my senior brother is short of manpower, so my junior brother is willing to stay and help.”
As soon as these words came out, the pressure in the room disappeared instantly.
A smile reappeared on Shu Gaoming's face, "Junior brother is so kind, how can he refuse? It just so happens that this ancestral land of the Lu family has an extraordinary origin. It not only has the eighth-level mind-suppressing sect, but also a heart-forging lotus that can improve understanding, which is extremely rare. . If you can get it, senior brother will give you a lotus seed and let your master refine it into an elixir. You can also practice a high-grade mental method, and there is hope for the elixir."
Yuan Zhong was overjoyed when he heard this and immediately lost his hurry, "Senior Brother, you are so polite. This time, Junior Brother will definitely go through fire and water, no matter what!"
Shu Gaoming nodded slightly, stood up and said: "This is the end of the matter. The grudges between you and Hong Yu have been resolved. Don't get into any more entanglements. It's almost time. You two will follow me to Beicheng to meet with various sect forces to discuss matters about the ancestral land. .The rest of the people stay here and continue to meditate."
"Follow senior brother's orders!"
Everyone in the Blazing Flame Sect responded in unison and went back to their rooms. Shu Gaoming and the other two went out together.
"Senior brother."
On the street, Yuan Zhongsan closed the distance in two steps, leaned next to Shu Gaoming and whispered:
“Junior brother also heard about it on the way here.
The original intention of the sect was for you to go to Lu State to support the scene, but it did not want Lu State to conceal the treasures of the ancestral land, which caused the sect's senior officials to greatly underestimate the enemy's strength.
There are three opponents in the Dan-formation stage alone, so it is difficult for you to take action alone. You can only watch the destruction of Lu State, and the blame does not lie with you.
But it's different now. There are still ten days before the Ancestral Land is opened. It's still early. Since you are short of manpower, senior brother, why don't you ask for help from the sect? "
"Ten days?"
Shu Gaoming shook his head and chuckled, "Why ten days?"
"Isn't it July 15th?"
Yuan Zhong was stunned. Seeing that Shu Gaoming stopped explaining, he couldn't help but turn his head and look at Xiang Hongyu who remained silent.
"Elder, I don't know much about the specific situation."
Xiang Hongyu looked ashamed, "After meeting all the forces in Beicheng, the elders should be able to understand the reason."
Yuan Zhong didn't give a good look, and there was a hint of disgust in his words, "Junior brother Xiang, you have followed me for so long, and you have gained a lot of eyesight. Otherwise, you are one of the top ten disciples of the inner sect. If you want to go further in the future, it is also hoped that It’s slim.”
Xiang Hongyu lowered his eyebrows and said, "Senior Brother Yuan taught me a lesson."
"It's a shame to change the title."
Yuan Zhong snorted softly and waved his sleeves to ignore it.
A moment later, looking at the ruins of Beicheng, one could see sect disciples patrolling everywhere.
As soon as Yuan Zhong followed Shu Gaoming onto the ruins, he immediately felt an unusual chilling air coming towards his face, and his expression suddenly changed slightly.
Before he could speak, Yuan Zhong felt a flash of light in front of his eyes, and an extra person appeared out of thin air.
"Senior Brother Shu."
The person who came had an extremely young appearance, bright eyes, and self-confidence. It was obvious at a glance that he was a person with outstanding talents.
He saluted Shu Gaoming without being humble or overbearing, straightened up and said with a warm smile: "I've heard a long time ago that the person leading the team this time is Senior Brother Shu, so I came all the way at full speed. Goodbye in the ghost stream. Senior Brother, you're all right. ?”
"It turns out to be Junior Brother Wan."
Shu Gaoming smiled and nodded, "Junior Brother Wan had an unexpected encounter in the ghost stream, and now his cultivation has become even more advanced."
"What did Senior Brother Shu say?"
The young man surnamed Wan waved his hand quickly, "Junior brother is still young, and we need more promotions from senior brother Shu."
Yuan Zhong looked on and felt his scalp numb.
Back then, in Gui Jian, Senior Brother Shu capsized in the sewer, and was robbed of his chance by Wan Lingmo. The incident was made known to everyone, and he was afraid that he would have been killed tens of millions of times.
Now when enemies meet, they sound like brothers and sisters, and their attitude is more cordial and enthusiastic than the other. If you don't know, you would think that they are brothers.
"Hey, are you Hongyu?"
Wan Lingmo suddenly turned around and saw Xiang Hongyu with a surprised look on his face, "I didn't expect you to come here too."
Shu Gaoming narrowed his eyes slightly and said in surprise: "Are you two still old acquaintances?"
Xiang Hongyu secretly yelled, Wan Lingmo had seen him a long time ago, and calling him now was clearly intentional.
"Senior Brother Shu, you don't know this."
Wan Lingmo looked at Xiang Hongyu with a smile on his face, "Come to think of it, I'm still Hongyu's cousin."
"Don't dare, don't dare, senior brother Wan is now the core disciple of Fengyue Sect, don't try to hurt junior brother."
Cold sweat broke out on Xiang Hongyu's forehead. He waved his hands repeatedly and said, "Senior Brother Shu, this is a coincidence. Senior Brother Wan is a descendant of my father's first wife and mother's family. Speaking of which, we haven't seen each other for eighteen years. I didn't expect Wan Wan." Senior brother can still remember me."
Yuan Zhong listened and nodded secretly.
This Xiang Hongyu is not completely brainless. On the surface, these words seem to be reminiscing about the past, but in fact, he has cut off his relationship with Wan Lingmo. Otherwise, this kid will have a hard time under Shu Gaoming.
Shu Gaoming nodded slightly when he heard the words, his expression remained unchanged, but his tone was a little lighter, "Fate is indeed wonderful. Junior Brother Wan, it is important to enter the ancestral land now, and this is not the time to reminisce about the past. Let's go in and talk."
Wan Lingmo smiled slightly, stretched out his hand and said, "Please!"
