One thousand seven hundred and four happy events and funerals
"Liu Suosi, I would like to ask, we and the Imperial Palace Institute have always been on good terms with each other, and we have never offended the Imperial Palace Institute. Why do you have to merge our small sects into the Imperial Palace Institute?"
Seeing Liu Wenzong's face, Xu Shitong, the master of the Hidden Blade Sect, felt his heart skip a beat. As a sect leader, he would naturally not be an economical person. These few words clearly pulled all the sect masters present to attention.
On a boat.
What Xu Shitong said was that the Imperial Palace would annex the Zangdao Sect today, and in the future, all the family sects around Yecheng might be merged into the Imperial Palace. In that case, their inheritance would be cut off.
"Why do I need to explain to you what my imperial palace does?"
Hearing Xu Shitong's words, Liu Wenzong rolled his eyelids. He first replied in an extremely domineering manner, then turned his gaze to somewhere and shouted softly: "Master Jade Sword Sect, tell him!"
"Master of the Jade Sword Sect? Master of the Jade Sword?!"
Suddenly hearing the title from Liu Wenzong's mouth, many people were stunned for a moment. Even Xu Shitong turned his gaze, only to realize that the person he saw was his old rival, Taoist Yujian.
"Okay, why is this old guy like Dao Yujian so kind to attend my Zangdaomen wedding? It turns out he is waiting here!"
Xu Shitong realized something, and his anger was really extraordinary. He had originally doubted Taoist Yujian's intention of coming today, but until this moment, the answer seemed to be coming out.
"Xu Shitong, Liu Suosi wants to merge the Zangdao Sect into the Imperial Palace. That is because he thinks highly of you. It is a blessing for your Zangdao Sect. Don't give me a toast and eat it without a penalty!"
Taoist Jade Sword, whose name was called by Liu Wenzong, naturally could no longer sit still. When he saw him stand up, he first saluted to the former, and then spoke with some amusement, which made many people secretly
nod.
Since the establishment of the Imperial Palace, it has always been a very special existence in Yecheng. No one dares to provoke it easily. And once the Imperial Palace issues an order, almost no one dares to disobey it. After all, it is the division of the Canglong Imperial Palace.
department.
But in the past, the Imperial Palace, even if they needed these sects and families to do something, they were generally quite polite, and sometimes they would even pay a lot of money, which can be regarded as an act to win people's hearts.
Those heads of small families and sects who nodded secretly have always wanted to have a closer relationship with the Imperial Palace. However, their strength is low, and what they can do is limited. If they want to climb the high branches of the Imperial Palace, there is no doubt that
Some are still not qualified enough.
That's why they became envious of the imperial palace's olive branch to the Hidden Sword Sect, secretly thinking that from now on, the status of the Hidden Sword Sect would probably be mentioned even higher.
However, other people looked worried. After all, their family had a strong sense of belonging. Once they were merged into the Imperial Palace, it would not be as simple as the previous cooperation. They would really become the private subordinates of the Imperial Palace.
"Old Jade Sword Dog, you are weak in bones, and you have ignored the ancestors of the Jade Sword Sect. Do you really think that everyone is like you, who deceives the master and destroys the ancestors?"
Listening to Taoist Jade Sword's words, Xu Shitong's new and old hatreds came to his heart. What he said did not leave Taoist Yu Jian any face at all. This was already a complete loss of face.
"Xu Shitong, don't be shameless. Mr. Suo Si is kind-hearted and wants to resolve the grudges between our two families. If you continue to persist in your stubbornness, I am afraid that the Hidden Sword Sect will become a river of blood today."
Taoist Yujian was irritated by Xu Shitong's words and was about to get angry when he caught a sharp look from Liu Wenzong in the distance. He could only change the subject and continue to talk about the advantages and disadvantages.
"Yes, Lord Dragon Emperor has something to say. Now our human race is suppressed by foreign spirits. It is precisely because there are many internal sects and families, and all parties are fighting endlessly. With such internal strife, we cannot be twisted into a rope to fight against the outside world!"
After Taoist Yujian opened his mouth, Liu Wenzong finally spoke again, and heard him say: "Therefore, the imperial palace issued an order to let the imperial palaces in major cities integrate all the forces, so that in the future, we can
Amidst the raging spirit, there are more opportunities to win!"
Liu Wenzong talked eloquently. At first glance, there was nothing wrong with his words, and they even contained some great truths. However, if you think about it carefully, you will find that there are many loopholes.
This is obviously an ambitious move by the Canglong Emperor Palace to bring all the human forces in the Nine Layers of Longxiao under its command, but it is said in such a high-sounding way that its wolfish intentions are clearly exposed.
But even if the heads of the sects and families who came to attend the Zangdaomen wedding banquet could have thought of this, after hearing that it was an order from the Canglong Emperor Palace, no one dared to refute it.
Of course, apart from the Hidden Sword Sect that was bearing the brunt of the attack at the moment, Xu Shitong's heart suddenly sank after hearing Liu Wenzong's words, secretly thinking that the Hidden Sword Sect today might be in serious trouble.
Although it is said that as long as Liu Wenzong's request is agreed to, the Hidden Sword Sect can be preserved to a certain extent, at that time, the Hidden Sword Sect was obviously not worthy of its name, and even the name might be completely erased.
.
"Xu Shitong, I'm not afraid to tell you that our Jade Sword Sect has been merged into the Imperial Palace and has become the Jade Sword Hall of the Imperial Palace in Yecheng. If you don't know how to promote me, you will be bloodied every step of the way and no one will stay!"
At this moment, Taoist Yujian has a sense of superiority. As the first sect to rely on the imperial palace, he is not ashamed but proud. At this moment, he is just like Liu Wenzong's pawn.
"Xu Shitong, I'll give you ten breaths. If you persist in your obsession, not only will your own life be at risk, but also the chickens and dogs will be left behind inside the hidden sword door!"
It seemed that Liu Wenzong's patience was gradually worn away. After hearing his last two words, even the guests who had nothing to do with them felt that their hearts were about to jump out of their chests.
Even though the Hidden Sword Sect is one of the two major sects in Ye City, it is still a bit underwhelming in front of the Imperial Palace, not to mention that there is a Jade Sword Sect whose overall strength is not lower than that of the Hidden Sword Sect.
"Ten, nine, eight, seven,..."
As Liu Wenzong's pawn, Taoist Yujian naturally took care of the counting. The numbers came out one by one, as if hitting the hearts of every Cangdao sect member, causing them to all turn their attention to the sect master.
face.
"Anyone who wants to live..."
Looking at the eyes of these cultivators of the Hidden Sword Sect and the eyes of his precious son, Xu Shitong couldn't help but feel a little heartbroken. But when he was about to say something, he was directly interrupted by Liu Wenzong over there.
"Xu Shitong, if you don't agree today, there will be no one alive in the entire Hidden Sword Sect!"
Perhaps because Xu Shitong's attitude angered Liu Wenzong, at this moment, the imperial palace chief had surprisingly blocked the last road to the Hidden Sword Gate.
It seems that Liu Wenzong also wanted these Hidden Sword Sect cultivators to be alienated from Xu Shitong and make them think that it was this sect leader that made them unable to survive. Once Xu Shitong made that decision, his goal would have been achieved.
"Haha, you have also seen that the imperial palace did not give me a way to survive by hiding my sword. Sons, are you afraid?"
Xu Shitong has an open-minded temper and is extremely straightforward. Now that the last road has been blocked, he no longer struggles. There is even a hint of smile in this shout.
"Master, we are not afraid!"
"What does the imperial palace mean? Fight with them!"
"Even if I die, I still have to bite off a piece of meat from these dogs!"
"Ah Si, bring me my big knife!"
"..."
After Xu Shitong's loud shouts fell, a burst of shouts and curses suddenly sounded in the entire wedding banquet hall. When Liu Wenzong heard the word "dog guy", his face undoubtedly became extremely gloomy.
As the director of the Imperial Palace, no one has dared to show any disrespect to Liu Wenzong since he came to this city, because those disrespectful people have long since turned into cold corpses.
It seems that Liu Wenzong's secret plan to make Xu Shitong alienated by his disciples not only had no effect at all, but had the opposite effect, making all the disciples of the Hidden Sword Sect become angry with the same enemy.
And that last sentence, "Bring me my broadsword," was apparently uttered by Xu Qingshan, the top genius of the Hidden Sword Sect and Xu Shitong's only beloved son. You must know that today is his happy day.
"You're a young boy who dares to speak so brazenly!"
Liu Wenzong's face was as gloomy as water, and when he saw someone really approaching Xu Qingshan with a big knife on his shoulder, he couldn't help but snorted, and then he moved his right hand slightly, and a majestic power swept out.
"Qingshan, be careful!"
Feeling the violent power in Liu Wenzong's aura, Xu Shitong couldn't help but be shocked. His shout came in time, causing Xu Qingshan, who had just received the sword, to be on full alert.
Bang!
However, just when everyone thought that Liu Wenzong's attack was aimed at Xu Qingshan, the next moment they knew that they were completely wrong.
A loud noise came, and then a graceful red figure flew out upside down. The breeze blew by, causing the red hijab on its head to float up. It was the other protagonist of today's wedding, Xu Qingshan Chai.
A bit of a passing wife.
"Xiaoyu!"
Seeing the figure flying backwards, he spurted out a mouthful of blood. Xu Qingshan felt his eyes were split open, and he was so angry that he almost spurted out a mouthful of blood.
Xu Qingshan's wife was just a daughter of a small family in Yecheng, and her cultivation talent was not outstanding. She was once opposed by her father, and finally she reluctantly agreed.
It is conceivable how much Xu Qingshan likes this woman named Xiaoyu, but now, looking at his wife who looked pale and confused, and did not even know what happened, Xu Qingshan felt that his heart was about to burst.
No longer exists.
At this moment, everyone stared at such a sad and beautiful scene, speechless. A happy event might turn into a funeral in an instant.
