In a heavily guarded house in Shentu Mansion, Shentu Peng was reporting to a middle-aged man on the process of fighting for the Water Spirit Fruit. This middle-aged man was the contemporary head of the Shentu family - Shentu Hong.
"Master, that's what happened. No one expected the overlord's unexpected appearance." Shen Tupeng said respectfully.
In front of Shen Tu Peng, the head of the family, Shen Tu Hong, after listening to his report, showed a look of satisfaction and praised: "You handled it very well this time. Not only did you make friends with the Overlord, but you also got a water spirit fruit. I will remember this credit."
living."
"I am willing to devote myself to serving the family. However, look at those three top-quality spiritual stones..." Shen Tu Peng looked at Shen Tu Hong with some worry. After all, the top-quality spiritual stones were very precious. He didn't know if Shen Tuhong had the courage to take them.
Give three top-grade spiritual stones to befriend the young Supreme Overlord.
Hearing this, Shentu Hong laughed and said boldly: "My Shentu family can still afford three top-quality spiritual stones, and with Overlord's talent and potential, let alone three is thirty or three hundred.
It’s far from enough.”
When Shentu Peng heard this, he immediately felt relieved. The head of the family really saw further than him. It is precisely because of this that the Shentu family is becoming more and more prosperous. Unfortunately...
At this time, Shen Tuhong sighed in his ears and said: "I wanted you to take Feng'er out this time to experience it, but I didn't expect that he is still so unlearnable. Alas! It's a pity that Jue'er became obsessed with practicing kung fu when he was young.
As for my current schizophrenia, I have to put my hope in Feng'er, but unfortunately he has disappointed me so much."
Shentu Peng also sighed when he heard this. This was also his worry, and even the worry of the entire Shentu family. Although the Shentu family was now powerful, they had no choice but to face the embarrassing problem of having no successors.
Shentu Jue's talent was extraordinary. Even though he was suffering from schizophrenia now, he was still a young supreme figure in the cultivation world of the Tang Dynasty. His future achievements can be imagined.
But this lunatic only has swordsmanship in his heart. When he goes crazy, he will even kill members of his own family. How dare Shentu Hong hand over the Shentu family to him?
Although Shentu Feng is very talented, he is too arrogant and arrogant. Once he takes power in the Shentu family, there is no telling what kind of trouble he will cause. Moreover, Shentu Feng has always been jealous of Shentu Jue, and there is no guarantee that they will not fight each other as brothers in the future.
Thinking of such a situation, several senior members of the Shentu family sighed.
"Master, Jue'er is a proud man of heaven. Even if he doesn't go crazy, the world of cultivation in the Tang Dynasty will not be able to trap him in the future. We don't have to worry about him. As long as his achievements are higher, the stronger the shock he will give to outsiders."
, this can be regarded as a disguised form of protecting our Shentu family." Shentu Peng said.
After hearing this, Shen Tuhong pondered for a moment and said, "I don't know what you are talking about. What I am worried about now is that Feng'er cannot be reused. What should the next generation do?"
Shentu Peng was speechless when he heard this. There was nothing he could do about it. There were not many outstanding members of the Shentu family in the next generation.
"Reporting to the head of the family, Master Jue is back. The guard commander accidentally offended Master Jue and was seriously injured by Master Jue's sword. He is now unconscious. If the grandfather had not taken action in time, he would be dead now." At this moment, the door opened.
The trembling voice of a member of the Shentu family came from outside.
Shentu Hong and Shentu Peng were both startled when they heard this. This really means Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here.
The crazy hero Shen Tu Jue, who has been wandering away for a long time, is back!
"The guard commander is at the seventh level of the Dan Formation stage. Jue'er can severely injure a sword. Could it be that he has already mastered it..." Shen Tupeng was immediately shocked.
"That's right, with this kind of strength, Jue'er should be able to master the Four Swordsman."
When Shen Tuhong heard this, he smiled bitterly. If a child from another family had such a great talent, he should be happy, but how could he be happy?
"Back then, the senior took a fancy to Jue'er's aptitude and left behind a incomplete sword manual. He said that if he could master the five sword techniques in it, he would be able to dominate among his peers. Now Jue'er has mastered the fourth sword.
, I am afraid that in the whole world of cultivation in the Tang Dynasty, except for the four heroes of the imperial capital and the three kings of Fengdu, no one can beat them." Shen Tupeng sighed.
Back then, a cultivator with unfathomable cultivation passed by this place and took a fancy to Shen Tu Jue's talent, so he left a incomplete sword manual, saying that if Shen Tu Jue could train the seven sword techniques in it into five, he would be able to do it.
Accept him as a disciple.
"I wonder if that senior still remembers this matter. If Jue'er can really become his disciple, there may be a chance to repair the injuries caused by the obsession." A glimmer of hope flashed in Shen Tuhong's eyes, and then he shouted to the door.
: "Go down and inform everyone that from today on, whoever sees Jue'er must stay away from him. In addition, send someone to guard Feng'er and not let him meet Jue'er."
"Yes -" The disciple of the Shentu family outside the door took the order and left.
In the house, Shen Tuhong once again regained his majesty as the head of the family, and said to Shen Tu Peng beside him: "We don't need to worry about Jue'er's matter. Tomorrow you go to the Yun family and hand over the three top-quality spiritual stones to Overlord. In addition,
, it’s time to prepare for the martial arts competition between the three families, let Feng’er take that water spirit fruit, it should be able to promote him to the third level of the pill formation stage.”
"Yes!" Shen Tupeng nodded and left immediately
…
Zhou Mansion.
Although the Zhou family is not one of the three major aristocratic families in Yaoyuan City, its power is very important, second only to the three major aristocratic families, and some people even secretly call them the fourth aristocratic family.
At this moment, Zhou Yunjie and Zhou Tianshu were reporting to the family leader Zhou Tianjue about the fight for the Water Spirit Fruit in Biyuntan.
Like Shen Tuhong, although Zhou Tianjue was surprised by Cang Tian's unexpected appearance, he was very satisfied with Zhou Yunjie's handling and agreed to give Cang Tian three top-quality spiritual stones, and also asked Zhou Yunjie to build a good relationship with Cang Tian.
"Father, don't worry, my son will take care of these things." Zhou Yunjie said with a smile.
Zhou Tianjue and Zhou Tianshu on the side nodded. They had no doubts about Zhou Yunjie's ability and wisdom. In fact, Zhou Yunjie was currently handling all the matters of the Zhou family, and Zhou Tianjue only asked about major matters.
Among the younger generation in Yaoyuan City, Zhou Yunjie is probably the only one who holds the earliest power in the family. Even the three major aristocratic families are envious of the Zhou family for having such a son.
"Jie'er is very at ease as a father." Zhou Tianjue said with a bright smile. Now that the Zhou family's business is booming and his son is so capable, he no longer has any worries.
"By the way, father, the martial arts competition between the three families is coming soon. Should our Zhou family take action?" Zhou Yunjie suddenly asked.
The city of Yaoyuan City has always been controlled by the three major families and the city lord's palace. The city lord's palace occupies 50% of the interests of the city, and the remaining 50% is shared equally by the three major families.
However, the three major families were unwilling to divide the money equally, so they made an agreement that the three families would fight.
The content of the agreement is that the remaining 50% of the city's interests will be divided equally between 30% and 10% of the family, and the remaining 20% of the interests will be determined by the results of the military competition between the three families.
According to the outcome of the competition, the family that wins first place will own 50% of the remaining 20% of the profit. The second place will have 30%, and the last place will only have 20%.
This agreement was formed because the three major families were dissatisfied with each other at that time, so they used this method to compete secretly.
Although these three martial arts families have nothing to do with the Zhou family, looking at the huge interests in Yaoyuan City, the Zhou family is naturally unwilling to give in, and they also want to get involved. After all, in the world of cultivation, who is the most powerful and who occupies the territory
There are more resources. Obviously, now that the Zhou family is stronger, they naturally need to seize some necessary resources.
After hearing this, Zhou Tianjue pondered for a moment, then looked at Zhou Yunjie who was full of expectations, shook his head and said: "Jie'er, in terms of background, our Zhou family is not as good as the three major aristocratic families. If we want to interfere in the interests of the city, I'm afraid now
It's impossible. If we are attacked together by them, it will be the end of my Zhou family. You have to be patient, because the real strong ones will have the last laugh."
Zhou Yunjie was a little reluctant, but he understood the importance and nodded: "Father, what you said makes sense. In this way, our Zhou family has been waiting for some time. Sooner or later, our Zhou family will have to intervene in the interests of the city, so there is no need to rush
For a while.”
"My son has such a character, and I am very pleased as a father." Zhou Tianjue smiled when he heard this, and then thought deeply for a moment, and said: "If you want to interfere in the interests of the three major families, we, the Zhou family, cannot do it alone.
, we need to borrow some help.”
"Father, don't worry about this. The child has already been prepared. As early as three years ago, I secretly contacted some small forces in Yaoyuan City. Although they are not strong, they are still an important force when gathered together."
Zhou Yunjie said.
"Jie'er, you are planning ahead. I am very happy to be a father. However, a small power is a small power after all. If our Zhou family wants to become the fourth largest family, we must have the support of one of the three major families. Otherwise, the name will not be justified."
Zhou Tianjue's eyes showed a glimmer of light.
"But although the three major families are constantly at odds with each other, they will still unite to oppose the invasion of outside forces." Zhou Yunjie said with a headache. In fact, he had already had an idea, but the three major families looked down on the Zhou family and were unwilling to fight with them.
They go back and forth every week.
"Union? In the final analysis, they are squeezing out our Zhou family, not to preserve their interests. As long as we can allow them to obtain enough benefits, this alliance will collapse on its own." Zhou Tianjue sneered.
"So, father, that senior Wu was a secret move made by you, right?" Zhou Yunjie said with a smile.
Zhou Tianjue also smiled and said: "Jie'er, you can see that that person was indeed sent by me to help the Zhang family seize the water spirit fruit. I just didn't expect this to happen in the end. But no matter what, this time the Zhang family owes
We, the Zhou family, are all alone."
"It's a pity that the overlord came out halfway. Otherwise, if Zhang Tianhao were to kidnap the Yun family sisters, the Yun family would definitely fight to the death with the Zhang family. Then it would be a good opportunity for my Zhou family to rise." Zhou Yunjie sighed.
"Hmph, since God wants the Overlord to appear at this time, it means that the Zhang family is not worthy of those two stunning girls. So, we will change the plan and let you, Jie'er, pursue any of the Yun sisters.
After Zhou Tianjue finished speaking, he looked at Zhou Yunjie and said apologetically: "My father knows that you have always liked the eldest girl of the Yun family, but for the benefit of the family, you have always kept this relationship in your heart. Today, my father will help you."
"
"Thank you father!"
Zhou Yunjie was immediately excited when he heard this.
