Chapter 64: The Qin Family Discussion
Yu Xiao walked into the Qin Family Ancestral Hall and looked at everyone present.
Those who can sit here are all senior officials of the Qin family, and of course the disciple of the Fuguang Sect.
From Ma Wenliang, he had already learned some of the other party's background. Of course, these things are not important. He just wanted to get some valuable information from the other party.
At this moment, everyone's eyes also fell on him.
Qin Beihai could see at a glance that Yu Xiao had only the seventh level of Qi Refining, and immediately confirmed that the other party should have just broken through the late stage of Qi Refining, which was much inferior to Hong Zhenhe.
But he was a real late-stage Qi Refining Cultivator. There were so many people present, only he, Qin Changan and Hong Zhenhe reached this level.
With the three of them, they can defend Wunan City from being captured by Weihu Village. Now that there is another late-stage Qi Refining cultivator, the pressure of the Qin family will be greatly reduced, and the casualties of disciples can be reduced a lot.
It can be said that one more monk in the late stage of Qi Refining has begun to tilt towards them.
Qin Beihai did not dare to be negligent at all, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "In the lower Qin family leader Qin Beihai, welcome fellow Taoists to Wunan City. Please don't blame me if you have any mistakes. How do you call fellow Taoists?"
"The Chief Qin is polite, I am Yu Xiao!" He bowed slightly and introduced himself.
"It turns out it's fellow Taoist Yu. You're here at the right time. I just..." Before Qin Beihai could say anything, he was interrupted by Hong Zhenhe:
"Yeah, Clan Chief Qin, let's stop here today's meeting. Junior Brother Yu traveled all the way to Wunan City. I guess he was a little tired. I waited for a night to rest and wait until tomorrow, and then we will call you all to discuss matters together."
At this moment, Hong Zhenhe seemed calm while sitting on the chair, but he was a little nervous inside. It wasn't that he was afraid of anything.
Instead, he knew that Yu Xiao was not a reinforcement sent by the sect, but the Qin family did not know this. Judging from their cheerful appearance, they obviously took it seriously.
If Qin Beihai finished speaking, then the lies he had told before would most likely be revealed.
Although he had never seen Yu Xiao at all, he would not doubt the other party's true identity at all. After all, not everyone dared to pretend to be a disciple of Fuguang Sect.
You should know that there are many registered disciples of Fuguang Sect and they become disciples every year. Judging from Yu Xiao’s cultivation level, it is 80% of them that have been promoted this year. It is not surprising that I have no impression.
No matter what Yu Xiao’s purpose of coming to Wunan City, in short, everyone is a disciple of Fuguang Sect and has the same position.
That's why he wanted to interrupt Qin Beihai and communicate with Yu Xiao first, and then collude with the two to find a reasonable reason to cover it up.
He believed Yu Xiao would not refuse such a small matter.
Qin Beihai didn't know Hong Zhenhe's little abacus. In his opinion, this person had arrived, and it wouldn't take much time to sit down and discuss matters together. Why have to wait for a day?
Don’t he know that the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly? Now that he has to wait for reinforcements, he must immediately prepare a counterattack plan.
Perhaps they can catch them off guard before Weihu Village noticed it, reverse the current passive situation, and thus establish a victory.
As the saying goes, opportunities cannot be missed, times do not come again, and you cannot hesitate at this moment.
"Fellow Daoist Hong, what do you mean? Are we..."
This time, Qin Beihai still didn't finish his words.
Hong Zhenhe didn't give him any face at all, and interrupted coldly again: "Captain Qin, haven't you heard it? I have something important to talk to Junior Brother Yu alone. This matter involves the secrets of the sect, and it is not convenient for others to be present. You say yes, Junior Brother Yu."
"What Senior Brother Hong said is very true, and Junior Brother is also thinking this way." Yu Xiao smiled faintly, not caring about Qin Beihai's strange eyes at all.
He came to Wunan City for a short rest and left after obtaining some useful information about Fuguang Sect in the near future.
The hot eyes of these Qin family seemed to regard him as a savior, which made him feel a little wrong. He thought to himself that it would be better not to ask more questions.
"Okay, Fellow Daoist Hong and Fellow Daoist Yu, we'll see you tomorrow."
Having said this, Qin Beihai could say anything else. He suppressed the anger in his heart, squeezed a reluctant smile on his face, and took the Qin family members away from the ancestral hall.
Soon, the only two of them were left in the Qin family ancestral hall.
No outsiders were present at this moment. Hong Zhenhe no longer covered up, showed a wry smile and said, "I'm going to let Junior Brother Yu laugh at it. It's really my brother who has no choice but to do it."
He believed Yu Xiao had seen a flaw, but fortunately, as long as the Qin family didn't know, Yu Xiao wouldn't stay in Wunan City for a long time, so it would be fine if he knew.
In fact, Yu Xiao didn't care about this matter at all, and replied kindly: "Senior brother is out of here, but the junior brother suddenly came to visit. I hope the senior brother won't blame him."
Upon hearing this, Hong Zhenhe laughed and thought to himself that it was indeed easy for his disciples from his own sect to speak, so he asked him to take a seat: "Haha, my junior brother said he should not be dissatisfied, so how can I blame him?"
Then he put away his smile and said, "But now is a special period. Just in case, please show me your identity token."
In Fuguang Sect, the identity tokens of registered disciples or enrolled disciples are all refined through special methods. The tokens will break if they leave their own range, so it is almost impossible for outsiders to obtain them.
This will eliminate the suspicion of using identity tokens to fake it. If you want to become a disciple of Fuguang Sect, you can only use normal means, and the evil ways will not work at all.
While speaking, Hong Zhenhe was the first to reveal his identity token of his disciple.
He looked at Yu Xiao, and although he had no doubt on his face, he couldn't help but start to doubt when he saw that the other party had not taken out something that had shown his identity.
Could it be that the person in front of me is fake?
Sure enough, this incident was strange from the beginning. Even the disciples of Fuguang Sect dared to pretend, which was simply seeking death.
Yu Xiao didn't expect that Hong Zhenhe would actually verify his identity first. It seemed that he was afraid that the people who went to the Puritans would sneak in and act as spies, so he was so careful.
It is better to be cautious in this kind of thing. Then he nodded, took out his registered disciple's identity token, and explained in contemplation:
"Senior Brother Hong, my junior brother is not a disciple at the moment, but I think this registered disciple's identity token should be enough."
In fact, the conditions for becoming a disciple of the Fuguang Sect are very harsh, and you need to practice within fifteen years of entering the sect to the late stage of Qi refining.
This has led to the fact that some registered disciples with poor qualifications have exceeded the fifteen-year period when they practiced to the late stage of Qi Refining, so they cannot obtain the status of disciples in the house, and can only become ordinary disciples with a higher status than registered disciples.
There are many such disciples in Fuguang Sect, and there is usually little hope of building a foundation, so they will be sent to various resident locations to manage the sect's industries and belong to marginal people.
Hong Zhenhe didn't expect that Yu Xiao was the person on the edge of building a foundation without hope. His polite expression instantly became much colder and asked with a smile: "It turns out that he is not a disciple of the house. Then Junior Brother Yu, what's the matter with you when you come to Wunan City?"
Yu Xiao had already noticed Hong Zhenhe's face change, but he didn't know that the other party actually regarded him as a marginal disciple, thinking that the other party just looked down on him a little.
This is not a big deal, so he didn't care and said truthfully: "My junior has been away from the sect for a while and I don't know much about the current situation in the sect, so when I passed by Wunan City, I specifically asked Senior Brother Hong for advice."
