Chapter 498 Wang’s Secret, Qilin Nest, Nirvana Sky
In the courtyard of the government office, it is already autumn.
A small spring gurgled by, and a few lotus leaves came towards me. Although it was past the flowering period and had lotus seeds, the layers of leaves were still as thick as umbrellas and canopies.
The autumn clouds linger and the frost flies late, leaving the withered lotuses to listen to the sound of rain.
Autumn is not the season of lotus flowers, because the remaining lotus leaves always make people feel desolate.
Tie Tang stood on the flowing water covered bridge with his hands behind his hands, looking ahead at the dense crowds of people setting out tables, chairs, food, and wine.
There are many familiar figures inside, most of them have not changed much, and their cultivation strength has not suddenly increased.
It seems that ten years have not left any mark on them.
But this is not the case.
Tie Tang squatted down, looked at the remaining lotus flowers in the pond, and gently pointed out a finger.
"I almost forgot, I am already an immortal!"
Buzz!
Little bits of golden light flew out, and the lotus leaves in the pond seemed to be connected to the sky like an emerald canopy. The rich fragrance of the flowers was assailed, and the pink lotus flowers stood on the canopy. Catching up with the last rays of the setting sun, they were rendered golden and added to the beauty.
A bit more noble, a bit more holy.
Everyone was amazed by this sudden spectacle and stopped to watch. The noisy courtyard suddenly became quiet.
Just when everyone is immersed in this beautiful artistic conception...
Bang!
Zhen Guandong slapped the table and shouted angrily: "Where is the old farmer Quan Tou? He has grown so many good things in the past ten years, and he just gives this to the Sa family?"
"You're the only one who talks a lot, right? You have nothing to eat." Ji Yingzhe grabbed Zhen Guandong with one hand and tied him to the vermilion beam regardless of his struggle.
Everyone was used to it, laughed heartily, and greeted each other and sat down one after another.
Tie Tang naturally took the main seat, exchanging cups and glasses with many relatives and friends, listening to everyone's thoughts about the past.
After three rounds of drinking, the business gradually stopped.
There are fewer and fewer people talking, and everyone understands that now that Tie Tang has been released from seclusion, there will be many things waiting for him, and they are all important.
The road ahead may not be easier than the past ten years.
But at least... there is a direction!
Tie Tang didn't want to put too much pressure on everyone, so he first recounted his experience when he came.
The people in the government office were shielded by the sword array, and spent most of their time living in the cave. They had no idea about the accident that just happened.
Speaking of the confrontation, Feng Chengdao suddenly asked: "Have any of you heard of the deeds of the Xuandu Wang family?
After the head of the Fang family came forward to mention this matter, the old woman became more scrupulous and finally retreated.
Otherwise.
Today, Master and I will have to fight a bloody battle before we can come here."
The four characters "Xuandu Wang" did not cause an uproar among the people present, because no one, including Feng Bingyao, seemed to know about it.
Only He Cailu, the leader of the Chixiao White Crane clan, subconsciously shrugged his shoulders after hearing this.
Tie Tang saw the clues and said directly: "If Chief He knows anything, even if it is a scattered rumor, you might as well tell him."
"Master Tie, it's hard to talk about this!" She obviously had many worries.
This aroused everyone's curiosity even more, and they started to boo.
He Cailu shook his head repeatedly: "Knowing the truth will not do you any good. On the contrary, it may cause some cause and effect, which is definitely not a good thing."
"I think there are quite a few people who know about it. If it's just some secrets, even if they involve some big shots, you might as well speak out."
Tie Tang opened his mouth twice, and it was hard to refuse again.
She pondered for a moment, smoothed her hair, and said solemnly: "I won't go into the details of the past. I'll briefly talk about the beginning and the end, and you will understand.
The Xuandu Wang family is the number one family in Xuandu City.
As for Xuandu City, its ranking has never fallen out of the top ten since ancient times, and it has always been one of the most powerful regions on earth.
The Wang family in Xuandu is rumored to have originated from the ancient Ji family. Thousands of years ago, it could be said that the power was even more powerful than the Yu family today, and the Fang family could only barely fight against each other.
The one that can really stabilize one end of it...
There is only the best family in the world - the Feng family!"
When He Cailu said this, everyone looked at Feng Bingyao, who just shook his head slightly.
"The Feng family has too many branches, and there is no obvious master family like the Fang family and the Yu family. You don't need to look at me."
The Feng family is indeed very strong and has a lot of people, but precisely because there are many and strong people, it seems very scattered, and its cohesion is not as good as that of the Yu family, Fang family and others.
He Cailu continued: "To this day, has anyone heard of such a powerful Xuandu Wang family, newcomers like you who were born within a thousand years?
No one knows!
At most, some people may occasionally know about the existence of the Xuandu Wang family through some ancient books.
Because the Xuandu Wang family perished nine hundred years ago!
The clan was almost completely wiped out, and only a handful of Wang clan members survived.
Looking at it today, it is probably equivalent to the destruction of the Fang family or the Yu family.
This is unthinkable!"
Everyone nodded.
Everyone knows that even if the current situation is so chaotic that even the Great Shang Dynasty is completely destroyed, it is impossible for families like the Yu family and the Fang family to perish.
The change of dynasties may affect the rise and fall of these top aristocratic families, but it will never affect their survival.
If the Great Shang dies, other dynasties will be established.
No matter which power establishes the imperial court, the support of these top families is indispensable.
To them, the rise and fall of a dynasty is nothing more than a change of rulers.
The Great Qian Dynasty was destroyed, the Great Xia was destroyed, and now the Great Shang Dynasty is also on the verge of collapse, but aristocratic families such as the Fang family and the Yu family still exist.
The same should be true for the Xuandu Wang family.
But an accident happened.
Tie Tang asked slowly: "Who took action? Even the person I imagined... seems difficult to do, right?"
It is definitely not that easy to destroy a top family like the Xuandu Wang family.
He Cailu's voice was trembling: "This was originally impossible, but the Xuandu Wang family did one thing wrong.
This incident itself is not a small matter, and the series of changes caused by it have completely pushed the Wang family to a dead end."
"Speak quickly, speak quickly, don't show off!" Zhen Guandong, who was tied to the beam, was fascinated by what he heard and shouted.
"Xuandu Wang clan...killed the woman the Human Emperor loved deeply, and that woman was a member of the Feng clan."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
He Cailu finished speaking in one breath, and then quickly said without waiting for anyone to ask questions: "From what I can see now, if the Xuandu Wang family does such a thing, it will definitely lead to death.
But if time goes back a thousand years...
Who would have thought that the Human Emperor would reach this point?
To know.
It was a thousand years ago, a period of turmoil in which the princes had dominated for thousands of years.
The behavior of any aristocratic family is actually far more unscrupulous and unscrupulous than the Yu family and Fang family today.
At that time...they were the overlords of the world!
The demise of the Xuandu Wang family is almost doomed, as if the trajectory arranged by fate has also made other families put away their tyranny that has been rampant for thousands of years."
Feng Chengdao suddenly realized: "No wonder the Yu family retreated. It seems that they are also afraid that Master will become the next Human Emperor!"
He Cailu said quietly: "The destruction of the Wang family in Xuandu cannot be achieved by one person's efforts. It also involves many conflicts of interest, and there are countless people actually involved.
But it has to be said that it was indeed the Human Emperor who single-handedly shook the foundation of the entire Wang family in Xuandu and played the war song of the annihilation of the Wang family.
Now that the Wang family in Xuandu has long ceased to exist, everyone should just listen to a story and never delve into the details.
You have no idea what kind of existence you will provoke!"
Everyone nodded, and after satisfying their curiosity, there was no need to break the casserole and ask the truth. After all, there were many immortals and overlords involved in this matter, and even the Human Emperor was involved.
A careless move may lead to huge consequences.
Tie Tang tapped his index finger on the table: "The grudge between me and the Yu family does not reach the point of annihilation. It is more of a personal grudge between me and Yu Linglong.
But this is also a troublesome matter that must be dealt with sooner or later!"
"Yu Linglong is an old monster who has lived for tens of thousands of years. She is powerful and has a solid foundation. Master, it is better not to have a head-on conflict with her now.
It’s best to find some handles on her and suppress them. Once the master becomes the master, there will be no need to worry anymore.”
"I'm not afraid of her, but the situation is chaotic now and I have too many things to do. If she gets in the way, it will be more troublesome."
Tie Tang has his own considerations. What he worries about is not Yu Linglong's personal force, but the huge power background of the Yu family behind her.
"Speaking of which... maybe there is something useful for you." Feng Bingyao seemed to have thought of something.
"Oh? You found her Achilles' heel?"
Feng Bingyao hesitated and said, "I'm not sure. Do you still remember the true dragon's nest that you asked the three Tielong brothers to search for?"
Tie Tang's eyes suddenly lit up and he looked at the three drunk Tie Longs.
"Found it?"
Before he went into seclusion, he had indeed asked the three Iron Dragon brothers to search for that mysterious lair, but he almost forgot about it after he came out of seclusion.
"Sir, found...what? Hehe, I found Wonderland!"
Plop!
Tie Long fell to the ground, snoring everywhere, and fell into a deep sleep.
"Iron Tiger!"
"Sir, that thing has been found a long time ago. It's not far from where we left. My three brothers brought it back without much effort."
"Where are you now?"
"In the adult body."
"Huh?"
"Uh~ It's in Qingshui City's Tiefu Warehouse, and it was sealed by Miss Feng herself."
Tie Tang immediately looked up to the sky and screamed at the moon. A big sun appeared in his right eye, and half of the vast city flew out from the sun.
Feng Bingyao didn't waste any time, put her hand into it and groped around for a while, and finally took out a translucent ball the size of a fist.
"I went in again later, but I still didn't dare to go too far into the forbidden area. The person imprisoned inside... is probably at least an immortal overlord."
Tie Tang laughed loudly and held up the transparent ball with his right palm.
"If my guess is correct, there must be something Yu Linglong needs here. It's a shame that Brother Thirteen spent his whole life searching for it and ended up missing.
Fortunately, she didn't get this thing, otherwise that part of the past would have completely disappeared from the world, and no one would know about it anymore."
"With your current strength... you should be able to peek into forbidden areas. Do you want to give it a try?"
"That's exactly what I meant!"
Tie Tang flinched and turned into a flying mosquito, buzzing towards the nest ball.
It's just that the nest seemed to be spiritual. After noticing Tie Tang's aura, it began to tremble violently and flew around in the air, unwilling to let Tie Tang get close.
"Huh? What's going on?"
"Let me try!" Feng Bingyao flew in without any hindrance.
After some trying.
"It resists the entry of immortals and gods, but there is no obstacle for the immortals and gods below."
Tie Tang held the ball in his palm and silently examined it for a moment.
"If I really want to force my way in, it won't be able to stop me, but some of the restrictions will be broken. I'm afraid it will change to its original appearance, and it will be difficult to change back.
No wonder she spent so much time searching for it for tens of thousands of years but couldn't find it.
The men she sends out are at least immortals. If they find the nest before they get close enough, they will run away and escape, making it impossible to find it in their lifetime."
Feng Bingyao asked: "Are you sure you can use this thing to deal with her?"
Tie Tang sighed: "If I take out Brother Thirteen's tomb, I'm 100% sure that she will be defeated.
However, Thirteenth Brother is probably buried in the tomb. I don’t want him to be uneasy after his death, so I won’t rely on this.
In fact, just by relying on the clues in the forbidden area... I am at least 50% sure that it will be enough to make her timid and not dare to easily become my enemy."
"That's good, when do you plan to go to the Holy City?"
Tie Tang understood the meaning of Feng Bingyao's words: "So urgent? You want to go too?"
"I want to go to the Holy Capital to find my master and help my father heal his injuries."
"Who was the Master of Feng Mansion injured by?"
Feng Bingyao said coldly: "My father seems to have experienced a lot of fights and suffered injuries one after another. In the battle between the Immortal Court and the imperial court nine years ago, my father must have participated.
But he was seriously injured in the end, probably after Nirvana returned, because he chose to retreat after returning from that time.
If it weren’t for the spirit of this Kunwu sword, I wouldn’t be able to get in or out of this sword formation.”
"Nirvana Heaven? Where is that?" Tie Tang had never heard of this place before.
"Yu Shengyan of the Yu family was able to break through from the Heavenly Witch Realm to the Immortal God Realm in just ten years because of the great opportunities he received in the Nirvana Heaven.
Including you saying that Yu Qiuyun controlled the magic of the divine phoenix, I guess she also got it from Nirvana Heaven."
Tie Tang glanced at Feng Bingyao and asked doubtfully: "Then why didn't you go?"
It is certain that she did not go because Tie Tang believed that if Feng Bingyao went, she would not be able to get less than Yu Shengyan, and her cultivation would not be limited to the earth witchcraft realm, even if she changed her path and practiced again.
"Without the protection of an immortal overlord or a powerful enough force, there is only a dead end if you enter.
After I came to Jiangdu City, I learned about the existence of Nirvana Heaven from some uncles.
It’s just that at that time... I didn’t have the energy to go to a place like this!"
"Thanks to you for all the hard work these years!"
Tie Tang retreated, Feng Chengdao guarded Qingshui City, and the others followed Feng Bingyao here. They could only rely on her identity and background, otherwise they would not have been so stable in these years.
Even the Chixiao White Crane clan, which has some immortal gods, will be remembered for its own property and will not be able to survive safely for ten years.
"No need to say more. When you go to the Holy Capital, just call me."
"Can't the teleportation formation from Jiangdu City reach the border of the Holy Capital?"
"The world is in chaos. Teleportation arrays have both advantages and disadvantages. Cities in various places have extremely strict control over the formations. Many cities have simply abolished the teleportation arrays to prevent other forces from teleporting over and causing chaos from within.
Not to mention the Holy Capital, it is impossible for any formation to reach the Holy Capital directly, not even the surrounding areas.
What's going on there now...
To be honest, no one knows.
Even people like the Yu family and Jiang Mu actually don’t know more than us.
Only by going there in person can you understand the real situation in the Holy Capital."
"This way..."
Tie Tang raised his glass and drank, pondered for a long time, and then discussed with everyone for a long time.
"Brother Tie, the Taoist priest and the great monk never came back, and there is still no letter from them. If you pass by... you might as well use your clone to take a look." Ji Yingzhe said with some worry.
There are many people in the government office, but it is not complete after all.
Xi Tianwen, Li Geng, Wang Andao, Bi Qi and his wife are not here.
We are used to getting along and have developed friendships. We have not heard from each other for several years, and there will always be some missing.
Wu Congyun was also worried: "Tie Tang, when you come back from the Holy Capital, can you go to Xuandu City to see if they...are okay."
Tie Tang had always found this matter strange. When Wu Congyun mentioned it, he took the opportunity to ask.
"What kind of cultivation is Lao Wang's father? Did you notice it when he came here that day?"
"I don't know, I can't tell!" Wu Congyun shook his head.
Zhen Guandong immediately said: "That old man is very strange and evil."
Ji Yingzhe recalled the scene and said worriedly: "Indeed, Brother Wang and his father always make me feel very gloomy, like a person who has been deep in the underworld all year round."
"What do you think?" Tie Tang looked at Feng Bingyao.
"I can't see it either!"
"It seems that he is not a real person, but a... puppet? Incarnation? Or something else.
I don’t know what his true strength is, but his methods are indeed first-rate evil ones, no weaker than those of the corpse exorcism lineage.
After all, they are the staff of the Clinic Department, which is extremely weird."
Feng Chengdao also told what he saw that day: "When he entered the city, I controlled the formation, sensed it, and even wanted to suppress him for a time.
At that time, he just glanced at me, and I felt that if I really took action, I would be the one who died.
He is very strong!
But his power... feels like something borrowed from something external. It's not clear whether it's real or not. You can only know it if you have a real fight."
"Is Lao Wang's father so evil? But it shouldn't be a bad thing if he took Lao Wang, Xiao Qi and Miss Shen away.
After all, I have no reason to harm my own son, right?"
Tie Tang paused and comforted Wu Congyun: "Don't worry, I will definitely go to Xuandu City."
The night is getting darker.
The already sparsely populated government office became increasingly quiet.
After the banquet was over, Tie Tang approached Feng Bingyao: "Since I have become an immortal, I have some means. Why don't you let me go and see how the master's injury is?"
"My father's retreat is in a secret room hundreds of feet underground. There is a Kunwu sword guarding it, and it is the sharpest tip of the sword. Even I can't get down."
"An unmanned fairy sword can't hurt me. I'm afraid this sword array is connected to the palace master. If I go deep into it rashly, I will disturb the palace master."
Feng Bingyao thought for a long time, and finally chose to believe Tie Tang.
"I'm going to appease Kunwu Sword. You can try one or two. If the resistance is too great... forget it. When you go to the Holy City and find my master, the crisis will be solved."
Tie Tang raised his eyebrows, his body obscured by the darkness of night.
"Wu Mu... may not be trustworthy wholeheartedly. It's not me who is instigating discord.
Very simple reason.
After the Palace Master was injured, he did not choose to go to the Holy City to ask others for help. He must have had his own concerns."
Feng Bingyao's expression also became extremely solemn: "Maybe my father was too severely injured and could not reach the Holy Capital safely, so he could only return here to retreat."
"Indeed, this may also exist. Anyway, let me try it. It would be best if it can be solved."
"I'm going to negotiate with Kunwu Sword!" Feng Bingyao flew up into the air and reached the hilt of the huge fairy sword in a few steps.
She said it was a consultation, but in fact she was just talking to herself.
Although Kunwu Sword is an immortal sword and has a certain amount of spiritual intelligence, it cannot speak and it is difficult to think like a human being.
It is more about relying on past closeness and distance to trust some people more.
"You can go down now."
After receiving the message from Feng Bingyao, the ground beneath Tie Tang's feet seemed to turn into a swamp, slowly swallowing him whole.
The Five Elements Escape Technique was not difficult for Tie Tang, and he easily arrived near the main hall where Feng Yi retreated.
This place is wrapped in countless details of sword energy, and there are also layers of restrictions hanging in the air, and countless patterns of immortal charm are shuttled through it like ants.
"It seems... the master of the palace is quite wary!"
Tie Tang tried to take a step, and the Kunwu sword immediately shook, and countless sword energy seemed to be rushing towards him like dragons filling the sky.
"Master of the Palace, Tie Tang wants to see you!"
The sword energy penetrated the air and tore the earth apart, triggering a restraining force in an instant.
