To a single master of martial arts, it doesn't matter whether the Fengyun Conference is a conspiracy of the imperial court.
They only knew that those who performed outstandingly in the conference either became famous in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, made huge profits, or joined the imperial court despite the contempt and envy of others.
For the casual cultivators of Jianghu, the Fengyun Conference is nothing more than an opportunity to reach the sky in one step. After all, Jianghu has been held for so many years, isn’t Jianghu still good?
Moreover, if they oppose it alone, they cannot hold back the general trend of the world. Those who don't go are fools.
For the top sects and masters of the sect, they are the key targets, and it is impossible not to go there. Today you are low-key and hide your edge. The sect that wins you will immediately enjoy various benefits from the court. In ten years, it will be enough to widen the gap.
.
So even though they knew it was a conspiracy and a trap, each faction still had to use most of their strength to fight for it.
Of course, the imperial court did not dare to go too far for fear of causing a backlash in the world. In addition, the governors from all over the country had been restless in recent years, so the Fengyun Conference was safer than before, but the competition was also more fierce.
Thinking of something, Zhuo Mufeng suddenly felt something: "Father, the imperial court has been committed to dealing with us, and did not hesitate to establish Tianzhao. I don't understand why they didn't take the opportunity of the Fengyun Conference to recruit you into the imperial court.
Isn’t it once and for all?”
Wu Guanting glanced at him and explained in a low voice: "If we are used by the imperial court, what will the Dongfang Family do? How can it sit back and watch the world be completely controlled by the imperial court?"
Zhuo Mufeng was horrified and somewhat understood.
Wu Guanting stopped and said: "In nine months, there will be a new Fengyun Conference. This conference will be divided into sect battles and personal battles. With Mu Feng's current martial arts, he may have a chance to protect the Earth Spirit List.
Top 50, fourth spot on the elite list."
Ranking in the top 50 on the Earth Spirit List is understandable, but ranking fourth on the Heroic Show List is a bit interesting. Zhuo Mufeng smiled and said: "It seems that in my adoptive father's heart, I am still not as good as the other three young masters."
In addition to Meng Han, the former Dongzhou Master, there is also Li Qiuhan, the "Star Reaching Master" from Haomiaoyuan.
Tang Xiu, the "Glacier Prince" from the Great Icefield.
Yan Qingting, the "San Miao Gongzi" from the Sichuan-Sichuan Yan family.
The last time Wanhua Tomb was opened, these three people did not appear. It is said that Li Qiuhan went to the South China Sea, and Tang Xiu and Yan Qingting also wandered around the world two years ago, and little news came out.
It's just that the martial arts of the three of them, in the words of the good guys, have exceeded the limit that they can achieve at their age. They are the supreme beings among the young people under the age of thirty in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.
These three people were young and successful, with bright clothes and angry horses. At the time of their highest reputation, they were popular in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and were the super idols that all young people looked up to.
The top young masters of various sects such as Huahua Feng can only be overshadowed in front of these three people.
The most irrefutable evidence is that Li Qiuhan ranked third on the Earth Spirit List, Tang Xiu ranked sixth, and the worst Yan Qingting ranked eleventh.
This was the ranking a few years ago. With the qualifications of three people, it is hard to imagine where they have reached now.
Comparatively speaking, Meng Han, who was defeated by Zhuo Mufeng, was the one with the lowest gold content. It is said that he was included in order to gather four people.
Hearing Zhuo Mufeng's words, Wu Guanting said amusedly: "Your qualifications are by no means inferior to them, but your age difference is a bit. When you reach their age, my father will never doubt that you can fight with them."
Zhuo Mufeng said it was just for fun. He was self-aware and wanted to reach the top ten on the Earth Spirit Ranking within nine months. Unless there was a great opportunity, it would be an impossible task.
It is destined that he will not be in the limelight in this Fengyun Conference, but it is a good thing to see a group of the most powerful masters from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty competing against each other.
There are still nine months left, and Zhuo Mufeng can't help but look forward to it.
However, at this moment, Wu Guanting unexpectedly heard Wu Guanting say: "Mu Feng, your reputation has reached its peak now, but this is not a good thing.
When you get to the Fengyun Conference, there will be all kinds of people who will ridicule you, slander you, and step on you to get the upper hand. So these few months are extremely critical for you.
My father and your adoptive mother have discussed it for a long time and decided to send you to a place where a unique person lives. If you can get her approval and get a little guidance from her, I believe you will gain a lot."
Zhuo Mufeng rarely saw Wu Guanting showing such admiration, and he couldn't help but become curious: "A unique person? Is that person's martial arts very high?"
Wu Guanting: "It's very, very high. It can only be described as unfathomable. Perhaps its strength is not inferior to that of the Great Elder of the East! Many years ago, your adoptive mother passed by the South China Sea. She was seriously injured for some unknown reason, and was saved by your adoptive mother.
.
That’s why she told her where she lives. Every year at the end of the year, your adoptive mother will secretly visit her and give her some daily necessities. She didn’t make it this year, so she will bring you with her this time.”
A super master who is as victorious as Dongfang. This is definitely one of the secrets of Wu Guanting and his wife. Now that they have shared this secret, Zhuo Mufeng is both moved and ashamed.
He actually didn't want to leave Gusu City, but he also knew that Wu Guanting's worries were very likely to happen, and he couldn't bear to let his adoptive parents down. After thinking about it, he agreed.
"Your adoptive mother has already broken that strange man's rules by bringing you this time. Don't tell Yuan Yatou about this, lest she go too." Before leaving, Wu Guanting said suddenly.
Zhuo Mufeng's back stiffened, and when he saw Wu Guanting's half-smiling expression, he felt his scalp numb. He was not sure whether the other party knew something, so he could only nod mechanically.
After Zhuo Mufeng left the study room, before Zhuo Mufeng could adjust, Miss Wu came to pester her and asked questions. Zhuo Mufeng then told her about the Fengyun Conference and blocked the girl's mouth.
In the evening, the four members of the family had a meal. Huahua Feng had entered the world of martial arts alone a year ago, and Lan Xiang was introduced by Wu Guanting to study with another formation master, but neither of them was there.
Wait until the next morning.
Zhuo Mufeng followed Wu Guanting and his wife and quietly got on the carriage and drove away from Gusu City.
A group of three people whipped their horses and boarded the boat prepared by the Sanjiang League at the nearby city pier. They set sail and drifted all the way to the vast sea.
In order to ensure the rigor of this trip, Wu Guanting even took the helm personally. Zhuo Mufeng had no choice but to ask his adoptive father for advice on steering skills. After going back and forth, he learned a new skill.
After that, the father and son took turns at the helm, but after entering a fog, a vortex suddenly appeared and the ship seriously deviated from its route. This is the key to finding the unique man.
Wu Guanting had obviously been here many times and consciously adjusted his direction along the vortex. It took more than half an hour before he passed through the vortex and fog and discovered two isolated islands, one large and one small, in the center.
"The big one is Wuyou Island." Miao Qingcheng introduced Zhuo Mufeng, with a smile on her beautiful face.
The ship stopped a few hundred meters away from Wuyou Island. At this time, Miao Qingcheng led Zhuo Mufeng and jumped onto a small boat nearby. Zhuo Mufeng took the initiative to use his skills, and the boat shot out like a sharp arrow.
Wu Guanting, on the other hand, stood on the big boat and watched the two people go away.
Soon, the boat docked at the edge of Wushou Island. Before the two of them could jump to the shore, they heard a cold voice: "Outsiders, stop."
Zhuo Mufeng followed the sound and saw a woman in plain clothes standing on a rock pile dozens of meters away. Even though she was far away, Zhuo Mufeng could still feel the woman's indifferent gaze.
Miao Qingcheng said quickly: "Miss Xue, excuse me. This is my adopted son. Please allow me to go to the island and report the situation to my senior."
Miss Xue didn't reply, Miao Qingcheng gave Zhuo Mufeng a calm look, then carried some daily necessities, went to the island alone, walked to Miss Snow and said a few words.
The snow girl was very cold and turned around to leave. Miao Qingcheng quickly followed her.
Zhuo Mufeng sat on the boat and looked around boredly. He found that Wuyou Island was covered with green bushes, surrounded by rocks, and there were even flocks of birds. It was early spring, and some of the snow had not yet melted, so it looked pretty.
It's like an overseas fairy island.
After waiting for more than two hours, just when Zhuo Mufeng was worried that something had happened to Miao Qingcheng, the latter finally came back with the snow girl.
However, the two of them had a clear attitude. Miao Qingcheng was the one talking all the way, while Miss Xue still had a calm face and only replied from time to time.
When they came to the boat, Zhuo Mufeng finally saw clearly the appearance of the snow girl. She was not particularly outstanding, but she was not ugly either. There was the coldness and aloofness of snow in her eyebrows.
Inexplicably, Zhuo Mufeng felt a sense of déjà vu, which made him laugh.
"If the naughty boy stays here, I have to ask Miss Xue to take more care of him. If there is anything inappropriate, it doesn't matter if he is punished." Miao Qingcheng said with a smile.
Miss Xue hummed, and glanced briefly at Zhuo Mufeng, then withdrew her gaze, as if his existence was no different from that of a stone.
Miao Qingcheng pulled Zhuo Mufeng over again and told him in his ear that he was just practicing hard and not causing trouble. Zhuo Mufeng naturally agreed to do whatever else he could do.
After a while, Zhuo Mufeng sent Miao Qingcheng back to the big ship. After saying goodbye to Wu Guanting and his wife, he drove the small ship back to Wuyou Island. When he turned around, he found that the big ship had sailed out of the mist.
Snow Girl jumped onto the boat, and before Zhuo Mufeng could react, the boat flew out smoothly, much faster than when Zhuo Mufeng was controlling it, proving that this woman's skill was far superior to his.
This woman was looking into the distance, and she had an air of aloofness about her that made her repulsive to people thousands of miles away. Even Zhuo Mufeng was a little hesitant to talk to her.
Soon after, the boat docked at the small island on the right side of Wuyou Island, and Miss Snow said, "You will live here from now on."
Zhuo Mufeng frowned and said, "Isn't it on Wuyou Island?"
Miss Snow: "Master doesn't like outsiders, so if he allows you to stay here, it's for the sake of Madam Wu, get off the ship!"
This indifferent tone of command made Mr. Zhuo very unhappy, and he couldn't help but look at Miss Xue. However, after only a moment, he retreated into the other's emotionless eyes and got off the boat.
Without any nonsense, Miss Snow drove the boat back to Wuyou Island and left Zhuo Mufeng on the island.
what is this?
Zhuo Mufeng was speechless. He was full of expectations at first, but he didn't expect that he would be driven away without even seeing the face of this extraordinary man.
