As soon as she finished speaking, Hua Nongying didn't react, but Ye Chen next to her had a bright light in her eyes.
"'Dragon Gate'?"
This is the first time Ye Chen has heard of it.
He paused slightly and narrowed his eyes slightly. The Shuangxiu Sect was located at Yingmen, and it once ran a sect to chase dragons in the world, which also happened nearby. He felt that all of this was very likely to be related to the "Dragon Gate" shared by Shuangxiu.
If there is indeed an earth dragon at the camp gate, then the only people who know the situation best are the indigenous sects here, the Dual Cultivation Sect.
He already had a plan in his mind and docked the boat directly.
"Xiaoying, let's go. Maybe we can take a look at Shuangxiu Sect's so-called selection of a son-in-law and marriage!"
"Xiao Ying?"
Yang Yue next to her suddenly frowned when she heard Ye Chen call Hua Nongying.
Girls like her have the most outgoing personalities and respect the strong.
Hua Nongying was quite famous among the younger generation in the Chinese martial arts world, making her both envious and respectful, but Ye Chen was "unknown", yet he was so familiar with Hua Nongying and got so close.
He also boldly called Hua Nongyingwei "Xiaoying", which she couldn't accept.
"OK!"
The princess of the Hua family, who was rumored to be cold and aloof, smiled at Ye Chen, took Ye Chen's arm very naturally, and walked ahead.
Seeing this scene, Yang Yue and Yang Gang were dumbfounded. Yang Gang, who had always been shy, couldn't help but asked in a low voice: "Sister, according to the rumors, isn't Sister Hua supposed to be paired with Ye Xing from the Ye family? What's wrong with this Ye Chen?"
…”
Yang Yue was also confused, shook her head in confusion, and could only follow behind the two of them.
Ye Chen put one hand in his pocket, and along the way, there were many young people walking with him to Shuangxiu Sect.
The Shuangxiu Sect is located in the middle of a mountain stream on the central island of the lower reaches of the Daliao River. The previous descendants of the Shuangxiu Sect also spent a lot of money and hired good craftsmen to build it into a restrained place because they found this special outer cave.
The pavilion is hidden in the mountains. If it weren't for someone from the Shuangxiu Sect to lead the way, ordinary people would hardly be able to find the door.
Fortunately, today is the Shuangxiu Sect's son-in-law selection meeting, and disciples of the Shuangxiu Sect are already waiting outside, leading their colleagues from the martial arts world to the Shuangxiu Sect's mansion.
Ye Chen and others were led by Shuangxiu Sect members through the mountain stream and came to a stone wall. They heard the doorman click lightly on the edge of the stone wall, and the sound of a mechanism activating was heard, revealing a huge secret door.
"It is rumored that the master of Shuangxiu inherited the ancient Mohist school, and the Mohist school is famous for its mechanical skills. It seems to be true!"
Hua Nongying looked at this hidden paradise and sighed slightly.
Ye Chen nodded. During the Qin and Han Dynasties, the Mohist machine arts were the best in the world, and they were brilliant among all the schools of thought. They even used the machine arts to resist the Qin cavalry. It is indeed not difficult to create such a cave in the mountain.
.
The Shuangxiu Sect's mansion is located in a mountain, but the interior is brightly lit, and jasper and glass are everywhere on the stage, which shows that its financial resources are extremely strong.
Ye Chen's eyes did not stop at these expensive lamps. Instead, he looked at the surrounding mountain walls and narrowed his eyes slightly.
On these mountain walls, he saw extremely obvious claw marks, half a foot into the stone, sharply carved, and every claw contained ambition and domineering.
He was certain that these were definitely not human paw prints.
"It seems that there is indeed something unusual about Shuangxiu Sect!"
Ye Chen secretly smiled in his heart, and his mental power faintly fluctuated, faintly covering the entire Shuangxiuzong mansion.
"Um?"
At this moment, in a stone house deep in the Shuangxiu Sect, a figure suddenly opened its eyes.
He was dressed in a black robe, his hands were hidden in the robe, and his aura was powerful and strong, suppressing the gas in the entire stone house into a vacuum.
"Who is it?"
His eyes paused slightly, a solemn look on his face.
Outside the door, a beautiful woman in a colorful dress walked in. She was very surprised to see the man in black robe looking like this.
"Brother Shui, what's wrong? It's not yet the start time of the conference, why did you wake up early?"
The man in black robe took off his hat, revealing a handsome and resolute face of a middle-aged man. His palms were slightly clenched and his tone was low.
"Just now, I felt an extremely powerful fluctuation of spiritual power. Among the people I have met during my decades of hard work, except for those who have sensed such huge spiritual power in ancient Shaolin and Longhu Mountain, I have never experienced such a huge spiritual power.
A third person has appeared!"
"But the mental power is just fleeting. It seems to be just exploring something in our Shuangxiu Sect. Now I can't feel it anymore!"
When the beautiful woman heard this, she was slightly stunned: "It disappeared in a flash?"
"Could it be that you sensed something wrong?"
She was very surprised that the middle-aged man in black robe was not only a strong martial artist, but also an accomplished spiritual practitioner. He could not clearly sense it, even if he was an extraordinary person.
It can never be done.
The middle-aged man in black robe had sharp eyes and shook his head slightly.
"I don't know either!"
He pondered for a moment, then finally exhaled a breath and stood up.
"That's all, now that we're out of seclusion, let's start the conference!"
"This time, we must choose an excellent husband for Wan'er to inherit the unique skills of our Shuangxiu Sect!"
"Only by allowing Wan'er and her dual cultivation to improve, can we create two more extraordinary realms in the shortest possible time! By then, even if the Bloody Hand sect comes to our door, our dual cultivation sect will be 70% sure of defeating them!"
The beautiful woman nodded heavily, and the two walked side by side and walked out of the stone house.
Under the leadership of Ye Chen and others, they arrived at the main hall of Shuangxiu Sect. Many people had already entered the seats. They all had proud faces and held their heads high, showing an extraordinary momentum.
Yang Yue and Yang Gang looked around and were shocked. After all, they were just from a family of casual cultivators in the northwest region. How had they ever seen such a grand scene in the martial arts world?
No less than 80% of the people present came from big sects. In comparison, they seemed ordinary and almost ignored.
The seats in the hall are divided into two sides. On one side, there are mostly young casual cultivators and some descendants of second- and third-rate sects. On the other side, there are old Chinese sects such as Diancang, Huashan, Songshan, and Laoshan.
The seats are different, and the fruit cakes that everyone visits are different. Obviously, one side is a VIP seat, and the other is an ordinary seat.
Yang Yue took Yang Gang and was about to step into the VIP table without thinking, but a disciple of the Shuangxiu Sect reached out to stop him.
This man was nearly middle-aged, and his cultivation had reached the pinnacle of master craftsmanship. He stretched out his hand to stop me, and said with a polite smile: "I'm sorry, you two, the VIP seats. Only special VIPs can sit there. Please move to the ordinary seats, please bear with me!"
Those who can sit in the VIP seats are the descendants of some old sects. Yang Yue and Yang Gang are not from a family of casual cultivators in the northwest, so naturally they are not qualified.
Yang Yue had a strong temper. When he saw someone stopping him, he immediately said coquettishly: "What do you mean? Are we not qualified to enter the VIP table?"
She raised her jade finger and pointed at Cang Laoshan and the others.
"Since they can all sit down, of course we, the two siblings, can also sit down!"
As she said this, she was about to rush into the banquet with Yang Gang.
The guard from the Shuangxiu Sect raised his foot and blocked their path, and his tone was a bit colder.
"Since you two have come to Shuangxiu Sect, you are my guests of Shuangxiu Sect, so we will naturally treat each other with courtesy!"
"But if you two are dissatisfied with the arrangement of our Dual Cultivation Sect, you can turn around and leave. But if you want to force your way in, don't blame me for being rude!"
His meaning is extremely obvious. If the Yang siblings take a step forward, he will take action without hesitation.
"you……"
Yang Yue looked angry and red, but for a moment she didn't dare to move forward.
Although her cultivation level is not high, she can still feel the strong pressure coming from the middle-aged man.
