This is a city that is not too small. There are many family sects in the city. The two largest factions are called the Hidden Sword Sect and the other is called the Jade Sword Sect.
Just by listening to the names of these two sects, you can tell that one is good at wielding swords and the other is good at using swords. Moreover, because of the competition for the territory of this city, it is no secret that the two are incompatible and fight overtly and covertly with each other.
Today, the Cangdao Gate was decorated with lights and colorful decorations, and it was very lively. Almost all the leaders of large and small forces in Yecheng were invited, including even Taoist Yujian, the leader of the Jade Sword Sect.
It is worth mentioning that each head of the Jade Sword Sect naturally has his or her own name, but when they succeed as the head of the sect, they will abandon their original names and be called Jade Sword Taoist.
Is it the tradition of this sect?
The Jade Sword Sect and the Hidden Sword Sect have always been incompatible with each other. Originally, the owner of the Hidden Sword Sect was marrying his daughter-in-law today and sent an invitation to the Jade Sword Sect in order to make the Jade Sword Sect feel disgusted. Unexpectedly, the Jade Sword Taoist actually came to the door with an invitation in hand. "
"Congratulations" is here.
The arrival of Taoist Jade Sword caught Xu Shitong, the master of the Dezangdao Sect, a little off guard, but today was a happy day for the Xu family, so it was impossible to kick the guests out, so he could only be secretly depressed and smile on the surface.
It seemed that Taoist Jade Sword was not here to cause trouble this time. He was sitting at the top, chatting and laughing with the guests beside him. On the contrary, the heads of the small families and sects were a little embarrassed.
Although Taoist Jade Sword has not shown any hostility yet, it is well known that the sword and sword sects of Yecheng have always been at odds. Today Taoist Jade Sword came to attend the happy event of Hidden Sword Sect, which was unusual in itself. They were all afraid of being
It affects the fish in the pond.
However, leaving at this time would inevitably offend the Zangdao Sect, so these guests originally came happily, but now they are on pins and needles, fearing that a war will break out at any time.
"The auspicious time has come!"
Just when everyone was having different thoughts, the singer at the door finally shouted loudly, and then a red shadow flashed at the door, and two young people wearing red wedding robes stepped in.
Among them, the young man in red robe is Xu Qingshan, the only son of Xu Shitong, the master of the Cangdao Sect. He is also the number one genius of the younger generation of the Cangdao Sect. His "Hidden Heaven Sword Technique" is so superb that he is the next generation
The perfect choice for the master of the Hidden Sword Sect.
As for the graceful figure with a red hijab covering her face next to Xu Qingshan, she is naturally his new wife.
It is worth mentioning that although his wife has some cultivation skills, she is not very strong. He just loves her sincerely and finally marries her.
Originally, Xu Shitong, the master of the Hidden Blade Sect, did not approve of this marriage. His son was so talented that he should be a good match for him, but in the end he couldn't resist it and could only reluctantly agree.
At this point, no matter how dissatisfied Xu Shitong was, he couldn't show it at this time. He sat at the front seat and looked at his son and daughter-in-law with a smile on his face, feeling comforted by his old feelings.
"Humph, a big disaster is coming, and you don't even know it yet!"
And just when Xu Shitong watched the newlyweds kowtow to him, with a happy smile on his face, a young figure behind the leader of the Jade Sword Sect uttered such a soft voice.
As soon as he said this, Taoist Jade Sword could not help but turn around and glare at the young man, causing the latter to shut up immediately. Even if he disdained the Hidden Sword Sect, he would not dare to speak to the teacher of the leader of the Jade Sword Sect.
Presumptuous in front of others.
The young man who spoke was the chief disciple of Taoist Jade Sword. His name was Zhuo Bufeng. His strength was comparable to that of Xu Qingshan, the heir apparent of the Cangdao Sect. He was indeed a rare genius.
The Hidden Sword Sect and the Jade Sword Sect are incompatible with each other. Naturally, these two respective top geniuses have never liked each other. They have fought each other many times overtly and covertly, but neither one can take advantage of them.
Because he knew something, Zhuo Bufeng finally couldn't help but laugh when he saw the happy look on Xu Qingshan's face. However, the accident had not yet come, and Taoist Yujian would not reveal it in advance.
"Worship heaven and earth!"
"Two thanks to Gaotang!"
"Couple..."
"Wait a minute!"
At the beginning, everything went according to plan. Xu Shitong looked at the beautiful children and beautiful women with a smile. All the previous dissatisfaction in his heart disappeared. He was already thinking about when he could hold his grandson.
However, just when the officiant called for the third time, a voice suddenly came from outside the hall, causing the entire hall to suddenly become silent. Many cultivators belonging to the Xu family stared at each other angrily, wanting to know who was so blind.
.
You must know that this is an auspicious time, and it is very unlucky to miss the auspicious time to worship. Even the two masters and disciples of the Jade Sword Sect over there did not cause trouble at this time. Unexpectedly, there are still people who are not afraid of death.
The newlyweds had just stood face to face and were about to take the last step. They were frozen in place, undoubtedly a little embarrassed, especially the groom Xu Qingshan, who had an undisguised cold light in his eyes.
"Since you're here, please come in and have a drink at the wedding bar!"
Xu Shitong, the master of the Hidden Sword Sect, was very calm. He was sitting in his chair without moving, but a thick shout came out of his mouth. The sound echoed in the hall, with a faint echo.
As soon as these words came out, everyone turned their attention to the door of the hall, secretly guessing who was so brave, and did they dare to follow Xu Shitong's words and enter the hall to have a glass of wedding wine?
Only the two masters and disciples of the Jade Sword Sect over there had a look that looked like a smile but not a smile. It seemed that they had known about this change for a long time and were waiting for a good show at this moment.
"good!"
After the voice of Xu Shi's call fell, there was a response from outside. When the hearts of many guests were moved, the master of the Hidden Blade Sect felt that the voice was vaguely familiar.
Tap tap tap...
While everyone was thinking deeply, a figure flashed at the door, followed by a large number of figures stepping in. When everyone saw the middle-aged man at the head, their expressions changed.
"Isn't that Liu Wenzong, the director of the Yecheng Imperial Palace? Why is he here?"
One of the gray-haired old men had obviously seen that person before, and he couldn't help but exclaimed, causing some cultivators who had just thought he looked familiar to react.
The scale of Ye City is not smaller than that of Yongxiu City, so it is natural for the Canglong Imperial Palace to set up an imperial palace in such a big city. However, looking at Liu Wenzong's face, it seems that the person who came here is unkind.
Generally speaking, the Imperial Palace is the absolute master of this city, but it has a special status and does not intervene in the battles between ordinary families and sects, such as the overt and secret fights between the Hidden Sword Sect and the Jade Sword Sect.
It was a kind of condescension based on one's own status. Even if someone begged the Imperial Palace, they would always ignore it, let alone help.
For a wedding banquet like today's Zangdaomen, Xu Shitong had never thought of inviting the Imperial Palace Director to come and support him, but he knew that even if he invited the other party, they would definitely not come, so it was better not to do such useless work.
But now, Liu Wenzong, the director of the Yecheng Imperial Palace, came uninvited, and from the two words that interrupted the wedding just now, the face of Xu Shitong, the master of the Hidden Blade Sect, couldn't help but become a little ugly, because it didn't look good at all.
It's like he's here to cheer.
"It turns out that Liu Suosi came in person, which really made my hidden sword gate shine brightly!"
Xu Shitong was filled with surprise and uncertainty, but it certainly wouldn't show on his face. At this moment, he seemed to have disappeared even Liu Wenzong's anger for interrupting the wedding, and stepped forward directly to greet him, with a smile on his face.
Thinking about the scene where he met Liu Wenzong many days ago, Xu Shitong suddenly understood the other party's intention, but it was really unkind for Liu Wenzong to come at such a time.
"Master Xu, I think you should know Liu's purpose of coming. If you don't know about that matter, how have you considered it?"
Liu Wenzong didn't come here to make excuses with Xu Shi'an. He saw him go straight to the topic with a cold face. But as soon as he said this, except for the two masters and apprentices of the Jade Sword Sect over there, almost everyone looked at a loss.
"That thing? What happened?"
Even some cultivators of the Hidden Sword Sect were confused. After all, Xu Shitong, as the sect leader, could not easily tell the low-level cultivators in the sect about such a major event.
"I'm sorry, Liu Suosi, our Zangdao Sect has been passed down for eight generations since our ancestors founded it. Liu doesn't want to cut it off by himself, but he can only disappoint Liu Suosi!"
Seeing that the other party was not dragging his feet, Xu Shitong had no choice but to face the reality. As soon as he said this, the other guests only felt their hearts flutter, but the figures of the Hidden Blade Sect members all trembled violently.
Although Xu Shitong still didn't say what it was, from his tone, everyone could tell that the so-called major event was to cut off the inheritance of the Hidden Sword Sect. How could he agree to this?
"Xu Shitong, don't give me a toast and eat as a fine. Is it possible that being merged into my imperial palace will humiliate your hidden swordsmen?"
Liu Wenzong, the director of the Yecheng Imperial Palace, finally had a look of anger on his face, and as soon as he said this, everyone who had been a little confused just now finally understood what the two people were arguing about?
"It turns out that the Imperial Palace wants to annex the Hidden Sword Sect!"
One person spoke in a low voice, but his expression became a little strange. After all, he was also the leader of a sect. Although it was not as big as the Hidden Sword Sect, he began to worry at this moment.
As for the heads of other small families, they have another idea. Perhaps for small families like them, being able to merge into the imperial palace and gain a big backer is the best way to protect the Tomb clan, right?
"Liu Suosi, although the Imperial Palace is good, but Xu is the eighth generation master of the Cangdao Sect, and there is no way he would do something so shameless as the previous sect leaders!"
Liu Wenzong's words did not make Xu Shitong change his mind, and after these words were spoken, the former's face finally became as gloomy as water, and there was a faint flash of killing intent.
