In the conference hall of Youzhou Qianhu Institute.
Gu An and the other three were all thinking about the words in You Hongming's mouth.
The leader of the expeditionary army will be decided based on the competition between the younger generation of warriors.
The General Office of the Suppression and Evil Division obviously did not expect such an incident from the Wu Mansion.
But the position of the head coach is indeed very important.
When the war begins, the first marching army will definitely encounter a strong counterattack from the Wuli Sect, and the casualties will be the most severe...
You Hongming talked with Gu An and others for a while, said some encouraging words, and then asked the three of them to retreat.
And he himself returned to his room.
I sat down and picked up my pen, not knowing what to write.
After a while, roll it up.
Open the window and whistle outside.
A white homing pigeon came to the window.
Stuff the roll of paper into the mailbox next to its leg.
"Go ahead."
"Thump, thump, thump!"
The homing pigeon flapped its wings and headed north.
You Hongming looked at his retreating figure and murmured: "He is still in the body tempering state..."
…
Central city, city lord's mansion.
It was night, but the conference hall of the City Lord's Mansion was still brightly lit.
A middle-aged man with a tall figure and a beard, wearing dark and black attire, sat upright on the throne.
He is the city lord of Zhennan City, Cui Heng, a strong man in the solid state.
Cui Heng looked at the people on both sides and said slowly: "What do you think about Gu An's slap in the face and knocking Huang Zikai unconscious at the Formation Master's Guild this afternoon?"
There was silence in the hall for a moment.
An old man sitting on the lower left side of Cui Heng stroked his beard and said, "City Lord, I think it's best if we just sit in the middle and ignore this matter."
Hearing this, another person said: "After all, Gu An was beaten in front of so many people. If we just ignored him, the Wu Mansion would be fine.
I'm just afraid that the Huang family won't let it go."
"So what if the Huang family doesn't give up? Can they still attack my city lord's mansion?
Besides, the area in Xicheng District.
The various major forces have intricate relationships, and our city lord’s palace has long since stopped taking care of them.”
"Then what if the Huang family insists on us giving an explanation?"
"bump!"
Slap the table.
"How much benefit have you received from the Huang family to help the Huang family speak like this!"
"Old guy! I think you took advantage of the Zhenxie Division. As the lord of Zhennan City, we should manage all matters in the city.
Why don't you ignore the murders in the streets? If you don't care, how will others view our City Lord's Mansion?"
When a young man sitting at the end saw this scene, he couldn't help but put his head on his forehead and closed his eyes, murmuring: "Here we go again, we act like this every time, aren't we tired?"
Then he raised his eyes and looked to the opposite side.
A young man sitting opposite the young man leaned his back on the chair, with a wry smile on his face and spread his hands.
The same helpless look.
The servant standing outside the conference hall heard the voice coming from inside.
They all lowered their heads.
But some people, while lowering their heads, still have their ears perked up.
"Bang!"
Seeing that the quarrel between the two parties was getting more and more heated, Cui Heng slammed the table, making everyone quiet down.
"Enough! How old are you, arguing in front of juniors! What kind of words!
The city lord has decided that if the Huang family comes to look for him, we will look for Gu An for routine questioning.
If he doesn't come, it means that the Huang family doesn't want to make a big fuss, so let's drop the matter."
After saying that, Cui Heng exhaled: "Cui Ming, Cui Li, and Cui Xing stay here. I'll talk to you about the conference. Everyone else can go out."
Everyone in the hall heard this, except for the two young men at the end and the young man standing behind Cui Heng.
They all bowed to Cui Heng, walked out of the conference hall, and left the conference hall with their servants at the door.
Cui Li crossed his arms and walked up to Cui Heng and whispered: "Uncle, it's not a good idea to act like this every time."
Cui Ming, who was standing behind Cui Heng, sighed and whispered: "Dad, this is also a helpless move.
You see, the location of our City Lord's Mansion is sandwiched between the Zhenxie Division and the Wu Mansion.
Can't be biased at all.
As long as we are a little off, both of them will attack us directly without hesitation."
Cui Heng let out a long breath: "Ming'er is right, things are different now.
The demon crack is closed.
My position as the city lord of Nancheng is no longer useful."
Cui Xingxing stepped forward without saying anything.
There was silence in the hall for a long time.
Cui Heng sighed: "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. It is a helpless move to let the first elder and the second elder belong to them respectively.
Let’s talk about the conference.
According to the normal procedure, Heng'er, please bring a few people from my faction to remain neutral and hunt the demons alone. If you encounter people from the Zhenxie Division and the Wu Mansion, avoid them and go elsewhere.
Li'er took charge of the elders' people, first gathered the people, and then followed up with the Suppression of Evil Division.
Xing'er led the second elder's men, gathered the men in the same way, and followed the Wu Mansion.
If the time comes to fight, you will find a way to deal with each other.
Don't tell the people below these things, just treat the two sides as enemies."
Cui Li was silent for a moment and asked, "What if there is blood on both sides?"
When the other two heard this, they also looked at Cui Heng.
Cui Heng lowered his eyebrows and pondered for a long time, and then slowly exhaled a turbid breath.
"If there is no other way, let's see the same blood..."
…
Gu An returned to the house, waited until midnight, and after making sure that no one would disturb him, he picked up the intermediate formation pattern collection.
"Ding, you can spend some energy to learn the reference book "Intermediate Formation Collection"."
Without any hesitation, Gu An directly clicked to add points.
Name: Gu An.
Realm: Twenty-seventh level of body tempering (0/800).
Skills: Chang Fist [Perfection], Golden Bell Cover Iron Cloth Shirt 10th Level (0/120), Exploding Step 10th Level (0/120), Bajiquan 8th Level (0/70), Blood Drawing Technique 6th Level (0
/50), fifth level of divine magic (0/40).
Energy value: 296.
On the night of the Blood God Sect's attack, the five Hu Lins, Ji Kun, and some Blood God Sect members behind them provided a total of 720 energy points to Gu An.
So, on the way to Zhenna City, Gu An directly broke through to the twenty-seventh level of body tempering.
In the afternoon, another 210 energy points were obtained from Huang Zikai and others.
So after spending 51 points of energy to upgrade the formation engraving technique to the intermediate level, there are still 296 points left.
At this time, Gu An thought of the young master who went to the Martial Arts Mansion in the capital that You Hongming had just mentioned.
Eighth or ninth level...
When he was at the twenty-sixth level of body tempering, he easily killed Ji Kun, who was at the eighth level of Gang Qi. Now he was at the twenty-seventh level.
It should be possible to deal with the young master from the Martial Palace in Shangjing City.
As for Huang Zikai’s matter.
You Hongming gave him hints, indicating that he had a solution, so he didn't need to think about it for the time being.
Sitting peacefully in the Evil Suppression Department, waiting for the conference to begin, not giving the Huang family a chance to catch him alone.
Thinking about it, Gu An looked at the seven intermediate engraving pens he bought today.
