Killing one stone with a thousand waves, the emergence of the formation tower once again pushed the Qiu family to the forefront. Some ancient families were unable to take action directly due to various considerations, but many loose immortals became the entry point to the whole matter. ww╲w㊣ (⊙o⊙)…
Above Changshan Mountain, the clouds are still thick, and the formation tower has been quietly bathed in golden light for more than a month, without any change.
The dark clouds were like a pair of invisible hands, tightly holding the Qiu family, and the depressing atmosphere always lingered around, making the entire Changshan Mansion panic-stricken.
In the spacious meeting hall, the candlelight swayed, reflecting the solemn faces of everyone. Qiu Xuan sat in the center of the hall with a haggard look, quietly looking at the hill-like worship stickers not far away, and said nothing for a long time.
"Xuan'er, there are immortals everywhere in Changshan City now. If things continue like this, it's going to be bad!" Third Grandpa said in a low voice with a sad look on his face.
"Isn't it good?" A feeble smile suddenly appeared on Qiu Xuan's haggard face. Not only is it not good, the Qiu family has become the target of public criticism. I am afraid that once the formation is dispersed, within a day, the Qiu family of Changshan Mansion will be in trouble.
Disappeared from then on.
"Hey!" The third grandfather sighed, and a hint of sadness appeared on his wrinkled face. It seemed that the Qiu family was doomed this time. He didn't expect that the foundation that had been built for thousands of years would be defeated by himself and others today.
A sad feeling slowly hit everyone's hearts like a tide.
"###, let's ask the Yuan family for help. After all, our Qiu family has a close relationship with the Yuan family, and you are also related to Master Yuan Fei..." Zhang Long's voice suddenly came from the quiet hall, and he saw
Zhang Long, who was at the end of the hall, was looking at everyone with excitement, as if he had come up with some good method.
"Shut up!" Before Zhang Long could finish speaking, Third Grandpa interrupted him directly, and then looked at Zhang Long angrily.
Zhang Long's voice stopped suddenly, and he looked at the third grandfather inexplicably, and paused with his mouth wide open.
Everyone looked at Zhang Long, with blame and anger in their eyes, which were extremely complicated. However, Qiu Xuan just smiled lightly and did not blame Zhang Long.
After all, Zhang Long had only been in the Qiu Family Council for a short period of time, so it was okay not to know the secret. However, after Zhang Long mentioned it, various past events emerged in Qiu Xuan's eyes one by one.
It turns out that the Qiu Yuan family has been friends for generations, and Qiu's father and Yuan Ba, the current head of the Yuan family, have a close personal relationship and a life-long friendship.
But this is the case in the world of cultivating immortals. When people leave, interests come first. When Qiu's father and the monks in his family disappeared inexplicably, the originally prosperous Qiu family suddenly fell into layers of crises. Fortunately, the remaining power is still there, and some small forces are wary.
The Qiu family had a great reputation in the past and did not dare to make any mistakes. Moreover, the Yuan family also provided great assistance, and this was how the danger was finally averted.
However, deep feelings are also based on equality. As time goes by, as the Qiu family continues to be lonely, the relationship between the two families has gradually become looser, and it is not as unbreakable as before.
Everything happened two years ago. At that time, Qiu Xuan had just turned sixteen and officially started to take over the Qiu family's business. At this time, Yuan Ba came to visit with his youngest son Yuan Fei. Everything was originally very happy.
, but Yuan Ba made a shocking statement in the dining hall, saying that Yuan Fei and Qiu Xuan had been engaged since childhood.
The audience suddenly burst into exclamations. The situation of the Qiu family at this time was very mysterious. If Qiu Xuan married into the Yuan family as the current head of the family, then the Qiu family would exist in name only. And everyone was more surprised than that, because everyone had no idea about this matter.
I didn't hear the old family leader mention it, but they knew the relationship between Yuanba and Qiu's father, and no one could be sure of the authenticity of this matter, so everyone focused their attention on Qiu Xuan.
Although Qiu Xuan was young at that time, she had a delicate mind. She knew that this was absolutely impossible. Because she had no spiritual roots since she was a child, she was just a mortal throughout her life. A mortal spent decades in a hurry, becoming an immortal cultivator. It seemed that it was just a matter of a snap, and his father would never make such a decision, but since Yuanba said this, he was unable to refute it.
Seeing the looks from everyone, Qiu Xuan secretly thought in her heart that Yuan Ba was very domineering and had always been known for his ruthlessness. In addition, the Qiu family was weak and unable to compete with him, so Qiu Xuan did not refuse him outright.
Instead, he said that he was too young, and his father was not at home, so he could not consummate the marriage for the time being. He hoped that Yuanba would give him another three years. If his father had not returned by then, he would marry into the Yuan family.
After Yuanba heard this, he was naturally very unhappy, but Qiu Xuan said it was reasonable. As an elder, he could not force himself too much. So after several rounds of dealings, the two families made a three-year agreement, but after that , the Yuan family seldom intervened in the affairs of the Qiu family, and the relationship between the two families gradually reached a freezing point.
Qiu Xuan knows that if the first of three years comes, the Yuan family will not be as gentle as before when they set foot on the Qiu family again. However, Qiu Xuan has already thought of countermeasures. If the first of three years comes, , Although he will marry Yuan Fei, he will not let the Yuan family touch the Qiu family's property.
When the time comes, she will let the third grandfather take on the role of the head of the family, cleanse herself and leave the house, and then let Chen Feng assist the Qiu family for ten years, waiting for her father to come back.
At that time, the Qiu family could be considered half of the Yuan family. If anyone dared to touch the Qiu family again, the Yuan family would naturally feel embarrassed and would help. However, she had not expected that Chen Feng would be buried in the formation tower. Moreover, with the formation of the formation tower, even the current Yuan family may not rush to take over the Qiu family's mess.
Time flies, and three months have passed in the blink of an eye. At this time, countless casual cultivators and a large number of cultivating families have gathered in Changshan City.
These casual cultivators were well organized and seemed to have been divided into gangs before coming. But what is strange is that with such a large lineup, no one did anything extraordinary to Chang Shan, as if everyone was waiting. What's normal.
On this day, the old monster from Yinshan was wandering around in his camp, looking at Changshan not far away with a sinister smile from time to time. This time he hugged the big tree of the Yuan family. When the mountain was broken, there would definitely be benefits. Thinking of rising, His old face showed excitement from time to time.
"Yinshan!" Just as the old monster from Yinshan was thinking about what he would get, a cold voice suddenly sounded behind him.
The old monster from Yinshan was frightened and turned around in a hurry, only to find a man in black robes whose appearance could not be seen standing quietly behind him.
"Who are you?" The old monster from Yinshan was horrified. Although there were many immortal families in Changshan City at this time, with his cultivation in the pill formation stage, not many could come behind him silently, which made him cautious. stand up.
When the visitor heard what the ancestor of Yinshan said, he gently reached out and lifted up his black robe, revealing a pair of cold eyes and a faint evil smile...
