"It's hard to say." Deacon Qin shook his head and said: "This is just first-hand news. The situation reported is true and false. Guan Qianshan is not a fool in his actions, but is bold and careful."
"Now that the news of the Chu Jiang Order has been leaked, there is no way he could not have considered it."
"I'm afraid I won't show up in a short time."
"Not only me, Qixing Tower, but also all the major forces in the seven states of the Central Plains, which one doesn't want to go to the Chujiang Order?"
The old man in black robe reminded: "Besides, with the strength of our branch building, if Qianshan really comes, can we keep him?"
Qing Louzhu was stunned.
Yes! Even if Qianshan comes, what can they do? Is it possible that they can still use force? With the power of the branch, if they want to retain the first-class masters, they are still somewhat sure.
Top players?
Even if you prepare in advance, there is a high probability that you will be killed by top players, and the probability of winning is extremely small.
"Please report it." Master Qing said, "Wait for the decision from above."
…
It is about a hundred miles away from Nanmeng Fucheng.
Surrounding a hill, there is a "Zhuangzi" with a population of several hundred.
Among the hundreds of Zhuangzi in Nanmeng Mansion, this one is very inconspicuous.
The sky will be bright.
Underground under Zhuangzi, there is a large secret room, which is brightly lit and has many people coming in and out.
One of the secret rooms.
"Senior sister." An evil young man wearing a silver robe walked in, his eyes were bleary, and he had obviously just woken up from his sleep.
"Zhiyou, I have already thought about it. You are going to go back today to see Master." A middle-aged woman in purple clothes sat on the main seat with an indifferent expression.
"What?"
The evil young man was stunned: "Aren't you asking me to lead a team to assassinate Wu Yuan? Senior sister, the assassination attempt failed in Licheng last time. It's just that I didn't have enough manpower, so I was avoided by Wu Yuan."
"It has nothing to do with last time." The middle-aged woman in purple said softly: "It's because there are more important things to do. Besides, there is no chance of assassination."
"Why?" The evil young man was surprised: "What happened?"
"I just got the news that the Chu Jiang Order showed up." The middle-aged woman in purple handed out a file in her hand: "Take a look for yourself."
The evil young man quickly took it and started reading it.
Read it quickly.
He was completely awake and extremely shocked: "Top master? Where did this secret knife come from? There was no news at all before?"
"And the Chujiang Order!"
"How could he be so lucky that he could get the Chujiang Order?" The evil young man was a little unbelievable: "Looking at the world, it only costs 18 Chujiang Orders."
He put away the file and looked at the middle-aged woman in purple robe.
"Wu Yuan's talent is indeed very high. According to the intelligence and evidence we have continuously collected, we speculate that he should have the potential of a 'top master' and even have a glimmer of hope of becoming a master on the Earth Ranking." said the middle-aged woman in purple clothes.
The evil young man nodded.
The Jin Empire was severely punished by the Hengyun Sect, and its intelligence capabilities were not very strong. For example, the Guiyu Sect failed to assassinate Wu Yuan, leading to Luo Fu's death, and they did not fully understand the Nanmeng Martial Academy test.
But many traces have shown that Hengyun Sect attaches great importance to Wu Yuan.
"Wu Yuan may become a disaster in the future, so we must get rid of him." The middle-aged woman in purple said: "Originally, we planned to assassinate him on the Zongmen Road."
"But if Chujiang Order appears, Hengyun Sect may send many masters, and even the Dibang Grandmaster may show up."
"It's extremely risky for us to assassinate him at this time."
"So, give up."
"Compared to Wu Yuan, the Chujiang Order is more important." The middle-aged woman in purple said: "This person, An Dao, dared to kill the elder Yuanhu's personal descendant, and dared to kill the general guarding the Hengyun Sect, which shows that he is unscrupulous and has no fear of the master."
"And he showed mercy to the masters of Hengyun Sect... He is most likely a master who hides in the territory of Hengyun Sect."
"I want you to report it to Master."
"Deploy more manpower and material support to give us sufficient authority." The middle-aged woman in purple robe said: "Try your best to find out the traces of the 'hidden knife'."
"Are you going to hunt him down?"
The evil young man couldn't help but said: "Top masters are not easy to kill. Apart from Master, our Jin Dynasty only has two grandmasters in Jiangzhou."
"kill?"
"I know how to fight and kill all day long." The middle-aged woman in purple glanced at him: "Why bother to kill such a master of casual cultivating?"
"Win him over!"
"As a human being, he has pursuits. Martial arts? Money? Beauty? As long as he has pursuits and desires, his heart will have weaknesses, which may be used by us."
"If we, the Jin Dynasty, want to conquer the world, we can't just rely on killing. We must recruit more masters."
"We want more masters to truly believe in our Jin concept of 'unifying the world, living in peace for the people, and prospering martial arts'."
"As long as it can be allowed to join Dajin."
"At that time, not only the Chu Jiang Order, but also the secret knife itself will become a sharp blade for my Dajin!"
…
News of the battle in Licheng spread quickly, and the name of the Dark Sword shocked Jiangzhou and was remembered by all the major forces.
As for the news of Chen Tanggru and Wang Zhushan’s death.
At noon the next day, the message was sent back to Yuanhu Villa.
Yuanhu Lake, six hundred miles away, has turbulent waves, the ‘Yuanhushan Headquarters’ is nestled against the mountains and the lake, and the Yuanhu Hall is on the top of the mountain.
"Tangru, Zhushan!"
Old Yuanhu, who had always been calm and unfazed, had a look of anger on his face: "Who is this secret knife? How dare you kill my disciple Chang Dong? Looking for death! Looking for death!"
The old man from Yuanhu, whose real name is Chang Dong.
In his rage, he did not restrain himself at all, and the invisible evil aura enveloped the entire hall, making the few maids and attendants outside the hall tremble.
many years.
Old Yuanhu was not that angry.
The one-armed young man in animal clothing who was kneeling respectfully aside looked down at the briefing in his hand and was equally shocked: "Top master? This secret knife can be a top master?"
"Could it be that he hid his strength when he fought against me?" Countless thoughts flashed through Beast Mountain Hammer Minglie's mind.
There is even a hint of fear.
In a life-and-death fight with top masters, he only lost one arm.
It is conceivable that the other party showed mercy.
As for the other party's ability, which has risen from first-class status to being at the top of the list in just a short period of time?
Even if Minglie was beaten to death, he wouldn't believe it.
"Why are all my disciples dead?" Old Yuanhu said angrily: "Not a single master from the Hengyun Sect died?"
"Just a second-rate master died?"
"These bastards from Hengyun Sect are really fooling people. Is it possible that they actually killed Tang Ru?" Old Yuanhu was furious. How could he not be angry? He was even a little flustered!
This is a direct disciple who has been trained for many years.
What is personal inheritance?
It is a friendship comparable to that of a father and a son. He takes careful care of and gives guidance to his disciples, treating them as his successors and his 'mantle'.
A lot of resources are spent on direct disciples.
With the talents of Wang Zhushan and Chen Tangru, Old Man Yuanhu believes that they can truly enter the second level in the future.
This is his pension insurance after he is over 100 years old and his strength has declined greatly.
It is also the foundation of the inheritance of Yuanhu Villa.
First, Ming Lie's arm was broken, and then two of his relatives died. It can be said that most of the arrangements that the old man of Yuanhu had spent his whole life had been destroyed.
Boxing is afraid of young people, and it is difficult for a martial artist to grow old.
Why? Enemies can only tolerate the grudges formed when a warrior is at the peak of his strength. When his strength declines in his later years, he will naturally be sought after.
At this time, there must be powerful 'personal disciples' to stop the enemy.
"Hidden knife?" Old Yuanhu's eyes were filled with endless hatred.
Although he still has two top masters under his command.
But they were subordinates, recruited with ‘interests’.
Once his strength declines, loyalty cannot be guaranteed!
"The owner of the village!"
A long roar sounded, and a figure rushed into the hall instantly. It was a bald man. He was half kneeling on the ground, with fear on his face: "Master, are you okay?"
"Why are you panicking? What else could be wrong? Could it be that the navy of Dajin came to attack?" Old Yuanhu suppressed the anger on his face.
This bald man is one of the two top masters under his command.
Give it the respect you deserve.
"The navy of the Jin Dynasty didn't come."
"However, Grandmaster Yu from the Hengyun Sect, holding the 'Yuelan Sword', has arrived at the foot of the mountain." The bald man's face was full of panic.
"Bu Yu?" A sharp look flashed in the eyes of the old man Yuanhu.
…
After the battle in Licheng, traces of the Chujiang Order were discovered, and the whole Jiangzhou was in turmoil!
Wu Yuan can cause all this.
But he ate, slept, ate, and rested comfortably on the boat for two days before walking down to the second floor.
"Sir, how are you?" Gu Ji greeted him.
"Not bad. This time, the effect of the concentration pill is much better than last time." Wu Yuan said with a smile.
"That's good." Gu Ji nodded.
"Go back to Licheng." Wu Yuan said, "Bear farewell to mother and head to the sect headquarters."
"good."
…
Going down the river, when dusk falls, the big boat arrives at the city.
Immediately.
Everyone on the boat had just learned about leaving the city, and everyone was shocked.
"A duel between top experts? A large area of streets was destroyed?"
"Many first-rate masters have died."
"Willow Ye is dead?"
"The guarding generals are all dead!"
"Such a big battle." Wu Xiong and the other guarding sergeants were all surprised, but also a little bit lucky.
They all felt that if they were on duty, they might be sent to rush forward to fight and be killed by the mysterious master.
"General Xu is dead?" Wu Yuan also showed surprise on his face.
The group quickly entered the city.
soon.
"Sir, top masters from the sect will arrive, and your safety will be safe." Gu Ji brought this news.
"That's good!" Wu Yuan looked extremely happy and seemed to relax.
There was tension in the city.
However, it is obvious that no one would associate "Dark Knife" with Wu Yuan, who was only fourteen years old.
Even though he is already a famous 'genius boy' who has left the city.
...the ancestral home of the Wu family.
Ancestral hall.
"Clan leader." Wu Yuan looked at the patriarch Wu Qiming.
"I have received the news from the sect, have you accepted the eldership?" Wu Qiming looked at Wu Yuan with emotion.
"Huh?" Wu Yuan nodded: "Nameng Seven Meridians are one family after all."
"It's good. It's the first time in the history of my Wu family that I have become a sect elder at the age of fourteen." Wu Qiming said with a smile.
He looked at Wu Yuan: "Wu Yuan, I also heard about your work in the main sect. I, thank you."
Said.
Wu Qiming had a solemn look on his face and was about to bow to Wu Yuan, but Wu Yuan stepped forward to support him. His strong arms made Wu Qiming even more frightened.
Lifting Wu Qiming forcefully.
"Clan leader, what I did is what I should do."
Wu Yuan smiled and glanced at Wu Long, Wu Dongyao, and Wu Liuye in the hall: "Dear elders and uncles, I am about to go to the headquarters of Hengyun Sect, thousands of miles apart, and my mother and younger sister are all thanks to your elders to take care of me.
."
"Definitely." Mr. Wu Liu said with a smile: "Brother Yuan, don't worry, I have gone to the sect and just focus on cultivation. You don't have to worry about anything at home."
"right!"
"I have left the city of Wu family, and now I respect you." Wu Dongyao also smiled.
Wu Yuan nodded slightly and said softly: "I also promise to all the elders and uncles that within ten years, my Licheng Wu family will have a place in Yunshan City."
Everyone in the house was shocked.
Only then did they understand what Wu Yuan was thinking.
Nanmeng Wu clan? Wu Yuan never thought about fighting for the main clan.
Yunshan Mansion is the core of Hengyun Sect.
It was his idea to move his family there.
Wait tens or hundreds of years.
The Wu family in Yunshan should be a sect of its own!
…
In the next few days, Wu Yuan stayed in the mansion, accompanying his mother and sister, enjoying the rare time.
And several days.
At the dock leaving the city, there were several large ships, led by the sect elder ‘Zhang Changsheng’, escorting the injured elder ‘Mo Jingchen’ and the three guardians back to the sect.
Wu Yuan, Guji, naturally wants to go with him.
"Mother, the child is gone, don't worry." Wu Yuan knelt down and bowed respectfully to his mother Wan Qin, very seriously.
Everyone in the Wu family watched silently.
"Yuan'er, there are clan leaders and the others, so don't worry about us. Take care of yourself on the road." Wan Qin held back tears and forced a smile on her face.
She knew that it was a good thing for her son to go to the sect.
However, the mother is worried when her son travels thousands of miles.
After traveling thousands of miles to Yunshan, how could she not be worried?
What's more, it was at this dock that she sent her husband to the warship.
"Xiao Yi, brother is not at home. From now on, please don't make me angry again." Wu Yuan stood up and touched his sister's head.
"Yeah." Wu Yijun, who was not yet very sensible, blinked his big eyes.
She only knew that her eldest brother was going away from home.
"Mother, patriarch, uncles, I'm leaving." Wu Yuan cupped his hands, turned and left, and got on the boat.
The sails are raised.
Soon, the fleet disappeared from everyone's sight and disappeared on the vast river waves.
August 27, 3224 in the Eastern Wu calendar.
Wu Yuan paid his respects to the other tribesmen and embarked on the road to Yunshan Mansion.
…
Cross the river and change course via the canal.
Finally, the fleet entered the "Yunjiang River", which is nearly 20,000 miles long and is one of the four major rivers in the Central Plains and the largest river in Jiangzhou.
Go upstream.
After seven days and thousands of miles of waterways, the huge fleet finally approached Yunshan City, the largest city in Jiangzhou.
It is also one of the most famous cities in the world.
Trade was busy, and there was an endless stream of passing ships on the river. However, no matter which force or chamber of commerce's ship faced Wu Yuan's fleet, they would all get out of the way.
The "cloud" flag hanging high proves everything.
"Where is Yunshan?" Wu Yuan stood on the bow of the boat, looking at the towering mountain not too far away from Fucheng.
"Well, Bamianyun Mountain is also the headquarters of Hengyun Sect." A rare smile appeared on Gu Ji's face.
"Eight-faced cloud mountain?" Wu Yuan whispered to himself.
His mind couldn't help but think of the contents of the books he had read on the ship in the past few days.
"Hengyun Minutes": Yunshan, also known as "Bamian Yunshan", is located twenty miles north of Yunshan Fucheng. The mountain is divided into eight sides and stretches for dozens of miles. There are only two roads that can go up, which wind for more than ten miles.
There is a pond, covering a hundred hectares, which is endless in four seasons. The source of the great river comes from here. It has eight sides of the mountainside and six sides of bright cliffs. It stands on the wall for more than ten meters, and clouds cover it at four seasons. The highest point of the mountain is called Yunding, and the sky is clear and golden.
, the dazzling sight, the ancestor of the Hengyun Kai sect, Master Shanyun, traveled to the top of the mountain. He looked around at the vast wilderness, the vast ravines, the overgrown grass and the desolate forest. He could not see beyond the horizon, and he felt countless emotions, so he established the Cloud Palace, which was the beginning of the sect."
