Zhang Ruochen, Zhang Fengxing and others came to a rather secret stronghold and settled down temporarily. Later, Zhang Fengxing left alone to report to the senior officials of the royal Zhang family.
This stronghold is just an inn, and there are no important people.
Therefore, Zhang Fengxing dared to bring Zhang Ruochen here. Even if Zhang Ruochen had other intentions, it would not cause too much damage.
Zhang Fengxing's son, named Zhang Shu, is eleven years old this year. His cultivation has reached the Great Perfection of Huangji Realm, and he can be regarded as a genius.
Zhang Ruochen asked many valuable things from Zhang Shu's mouth.
Their lineage is the descendant of "King Mingjiang", the twelfth master of the Zhang family in the royal family. His father, Zhang Fengxing, was just a sub-rudder who spied on intelligence.
Emperor Ming had a total of forty-eight brothers and sisters. When Zhang Ruochen was born, half of the emperor's uncles and aunts had died of old age, and those who were still alive were all strong men with long lifespans.
The so-called Twelfth Master is actually the Twelfth Emperor's younger brother and Zhang Ruochen's Twelfth Emperor's uncle.
In addition to Emperor Ming's brothers and sisters, in fact, the royal Zhang family has many branches, spread throughout the Central Region, and is a huge ancient family.
Even after the establishment of the First Central Empire, the Zhang family was bloody massacred by the imperial court and the Ministry of War, but the Zhang family was still not completely wiped out.
The power of the Zhang family has turned from bright to dark and has become hidden.
"Eight hundred years ago, the Twelve Emperor's Uncle was already over two hundred years old. I wonder if he is still alive in the world now?" Zhang Ruochen sighed secretly in his heart.
Zhang Shu said: "Brother, your cultivation is so powerful, can you teach me a move or a half?"
"Of course." Zhang Ruochen stared at Zhang Shu carefully, nodded, and said: "You are still in the Huangji realm, so you can practice other techniques. I can teach you a top-notch cultivation technique."
"The technique I am practicing now is the low-grade ghost-level "Lingshuang Jue". Isn't it considered top-notch?" Zhang Shu said.
Zhang Ruochen shook his head gently, took out a piece of jade, and used his mental power to carve an exercise technique on the jade.
Zhang Shu took the jade stone and stared at the words on it. He was very shocked and said: "The king-level low-grade exercise "Tai Ming Sacred Code", this... This is the exercise that can only be practiced by direct descendants of the royal family, big brother.
, can I practice?”
Zhang Ruochen stared at him with an affirmative look, nodded, and said: "You should know the importance of the "Taiming Holy Code", so you must keep it secret and not let anyone know."
Zhang Shu immediately hid the jade stone recording the "Taiming Holy Code" and nodded very seriously.
At the same time, he also secretly guessed that the eldest brother must be the core figure of the Zhang family. Otherwise, how could he obtain the cultivation methods of the "Taiming Holy Code"?
Zhang Ruochen passed the "Tai Ming Sacred Code" to Zhang Shu because he was interested in his character.
Zhang Shu is only eleven years old.
A sword hung on his neck, but he did not lower his head. This shows that this son has a very strong character and is worth cultivating.
Zhang Ruochen was waiting in the inn. Suddenly, a wave of mental power came out, and Chu Siyuan walked through the wooden wall and appeared in his room.
When Zhang Ruochen saw Chu Siyuan, he felt a little headache again and said: "Senior Chu, why are you still lingering and here again?"
Chu Siyuan's face was serious and he snorted: "Do you know that since you entered Shengming City, you have been targeted by the masters of Mingtang?"
"What does it have to do with you?" Zhang Ruochen asked.
Chu Siyuan was so angry that he kept trembling, his beard stood up, and said: "You kid... you are too ignorant. I kindly helped you get rid of the masters in Mingtang, but you still treat me with such an attitude."
Zhang Ruochen looked curious and said in surprise: "Senior Chu killed all the masters in Mingtang?"
"Is I that cruel? I just knocked them unconscious and used mental power to erase some of their memories." Chu Siyuan said.
Zhang Ruochen showed a look of disdain and said he was not cruel. A few days ago, he killed 100,000 immortal vampire sergeants, which was like a massacre of 10,000 people.
Chu Siyuan said sternly: "Zhang Ruochen, I have to remind you that it is the right thing to act bravely when you see justice. However, you'd better not interfere in the affairs of the court and the Zhang family, otherwise, you will definitely get into trouble."
In fact, Chu Siyuan also criticized some of the cruel methods of the imperial court and the Ministry of War.
In order to deal with the descendants of the previous dynasty, the Ministry of War used very dirty methods and committed many indiscriminate killings of innocent people, forcing those people to rebel.
Therefore, Zhang Ruochen took action to save some members of the Zhang family. Chu Siyuan did not think that what he did was wrong. Instead, he thought that he had drawn his sword to help when there was injustice, which was the act of a righteous man.
Zhang Ruochen smiled: "I am now a felon ordered by the Queen to be arrested. Am I still afraid of further offending the court?"
Chu Siyuan's eyes were very cold, and he said: "The reason why your kid is still alive is just because you haven't met anyone powerful yet. In this Shengming City, there are many top men from the Ministry of War and the imperial court gathered together. You and the people from the Zhang family
If you get too close, your identity will be exposed soon."? "Since Luo Xu handed you over to me, I have the responsibility to protect your safety. You can't stay here anymore, come with me immediately."
Zhang Ruochen shook his head and had no intention of leaving. If he wanted to continue waiting, it would be best to meet senior members of the Zhang family.
Chu Siyuan used tough tactics and struck like lightning.
"Chichi."
A layer of light appeared on the tip of his index finger, and a circular mark was drawn between Zhang Ruochen's eyebrows.
Suddenly, all the holy energy and spiritual power in Zhang Ruochen's body were sealed, and he lost his power.
"Old man Chu, what on earth are you going to do?"
Zhang Ruochen was very angry and felt that Chu Siyuan was deliberately causing trouble and disrupting his plans every time.
Chu Siyuan shook his head and sighed: "I am saving you from jumping into the fire pit. As long as you leave with me, I can agree to any conditions you have."
"We are neither relatives nor friends, why are you so nice to me?" Zhang Ruochen felt like he wanted to cry without tears.
Chu Siyuan told Zhang Ruochen the truth and said: "You have very high qualifications and are a pillar of talent. The Kunlun world is about to be in chaos, and some young heroes are needed to succeed the older generation of saints and hold up the world. Otherwise, mankind will
There will be a danger of annihilation. I am going to lead you on the right path and teach you some moral qualities so that you can become a useful person to the world."
Zhang Ruochen knew that he couldn't defeat this stubborn old man, so he gradually became calmer and said, "You just said that as long as I leave with you, you can agree to any conditions?"
"That's right."
Chu Siyuan raised his chin, stroked his beard lightly, looking like a master, and said: "The master of the painting sect always keeps his word."
"What if I want a fifth-grade Saint Yuan Dan?" Zhang Ruochen said.
Chu Siyuan laughed and said: "As an old man, how difficult is it to get a fifth-grade Saint Yuan Dan? Boy, do you know the Cai family?"
"One of the four great medieval families in Shengming City, that Cai family?" Zhang Ruochen asked.
Chu Siyuan nodded and said: "I and the head of the Cai family are family friends. The eldest son of the Cai family is my second disciple. The eldest grandson of the Cai family is my disciple and he is also the second in the new department this year. Just because of this
With such a relationship, is it difficult to obtain a fifth-grade Saint Yuan Dan?"
"So, Senior Chu is planning to take me to the Cai family to see the style of the medieval family?" Zhang Ruochen said.
"Smart."? Chu Siyuan nodded and stared at Zhang Ruochen with a "teachable" expression.
Chu Siyuan was obsessed with teaching Zhang Ruochen to be a good person. If Zhang Ruochen continued to resist, he might mistakenly think that Zhang Ruochen had a rebellious character, and thus increase the intensity of his "teaching".
If this is the case, then obey him for the time being and then find an opportunity to slip away.
If you can really get a fifth-grade Saint Yuan Dan, it will naturally be the best thing.
"Okay! I promise you, you will unlock the seal on me first." Zhang Ruochen said.
Chu Siyuan untied the seal on Zhang Ruochen, patted him on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "I have already inquired, tonight, the Cai family will hold a banquet to celebrate the pride of the entire Shengming City.
My disciple’s grandson became the second in the new department.”
"Just in time, you have to take this opportunity to see him. Then you will know what a true young hero is, the hope of the human race."
"Also, in the future, you should not get involved with the monks of the Demon Cult again. As the saying goes, those who are close to vermillion are red, and those who are close to ink are black."
Zhang Ruochen claimed yes, then left the inn and followed Chu Siyuan in the direction of the Cai family.
At the same time, Mu Lingxi, who left the Moon Worshiping Demon Sect, finally arrived in Tiantai Prefecture after half a month of traveling.
However, she did not find Zhang Ruochen, but met Ling Feiyu instead.
Mu Lingxi stared at Ling Feiyu who was blocking the front, showing a wary look, and said: "Who are you, and why do you want to stop me?"
Ling Feiyu stood on the bank of the ancient river with his hands behind his back, looking at the smoky water, and said three words: "Ling Feiyu."
"Are you the palace master?"
Mu Lingxi carefully observed Ling Feiyu's back and finally discovered that this person was indeed very similar to the palace master.
The sharp kendo aura on Ling Feiyu's body was truly unique. Mu Lingxi felt quite frightened even though she was standing ten feet away from her.
"You don't have to look for that person anymore, come back to the main forum with me!" Ling Feiyu said.
Mu Lingxi was naturally very happy to see that the palace master had not died, and immediately bowed and saluted, saying: "Since the palace master knows who I am going to find, he should know that I have a reason to go to him."
"No matter what reason you have, you should go back now. Don't you know that there are holy figures in the religion who are always following you? They miss Zhang Ruochen more than you." Ling Feiyu said.
Mu Lingxi was secretly shocked and thought to herself, "No wonder I can easily escape from the main altar. It turns out that someone deliberately let me go and wanted me to help them find Zhang Ruochen."
"But the leader issued a death order, and Zhang Ruochen is in a very dangerous situation now." Mu Lingxidao lowered his head, his eyes a little red.
"When I return to the main altar, there will be no more Death Orders." Ling Feiyu said.
Although she felt unwilling to do so, in the end, she had to return to the Demon Cult Headquarters with Ling Feiyu.
"Back to the main altar, I want to retreat and attack a very important realm. When the time comes, you will be responsible for taking care of the Saintess' Palace."
Seeing Mu Lingxi's absent-minded look, Ling Feiyu reminded him and said: "Your cultivation level has been greatly surpassed by Zhang Ruochen's. If you want to catch up with him, you'd better work harder in the future."
Although Mu Lingxi didn't know why the palace master was so concerned about her and Zhang Ruochen's affairs, the palace master's words made sense and she should indeed work harder to practice.
