In the direction directly opposite the floor-to-ceiling window of True Person Qu Guang's office, in the suburbs of City Seven, there is a private garden of the Hu Family.
Lush trees cover half of the mountain. A seven-layered and octagonal blue brick ancient tower stands tall. Outside the garden, you can also see the animal head on the top of the tower facing the sky. It looks like a tiger and a dragon. It is the legendary Bi An beast. The eyes of the animal head shine with divine light, as bright as stars in the dark night, which will last for three hundred years. Hu Family Patriarch Hu Hanyi was wearing a slightly wrinkled brown striped suit, holding a black briefcase, and walked cautiously from a distance, followed by two bodyguards.
"Patriarch."
The old priest under the tower opened his eyes and said hello.
"Mr. Qin." Hu Hanyi nodded, "There's nothing unusual inside, right?"
"It's calm," the old monk replied.
"That's good, open the door." Hu Hanyi ordered.
The two guards, one on the left and one on the right, each unscrewed a stone beast base on both sides of the tower door. With a clicking sound, the heavy iron-wood door opened a gap. When a crazy storm of demonic energy swept out from inside, just a trace of it knocked Hu Hanyi ten meters away! Bang!
Hu Hanyi landed heavily, rolled several times, and almost spit out a mouthful of blood. After a long while, he raised his head with difficulty. "Fuck, you call this calm?"
"Who knows why Patriarch the wind started blowing up when you arrived?" The old worshipper chuckled, "Maybe it's the wind from the tiger and the cloud from the dragon." Hu Hanyi hummed twice and said nothing. When he walked back into the tower, there was no evil wind again.
Hu Family has developed rapidly in these years, and has become the king of River City. The reason why it has always been considered a third-rate family is because the top level is not strong enough.
If you don't have your own strong men in the upper three realms, you won't be able to compete with slightly stronger forces.
Although you can also spend money to invite some worshippers, just like this old Qin. But these are the elderly Seventh Realm who have a short life span and are difficult to enter the country. They pay a lot of money to work, just to find a place to retire.
Hu Family provides him with delicious food and drinks, and he has to hold them in his hands at ordinary times. He will only help with some housekeeping and nursing home chores.
If you really encounter danger and need to fight against strong people in the same situation or other tasks, you will never do this kind of support for the elderly.
You still have to have your own upper three realms, even if there is only one Dao Realm.
Relying on the strength of the family to support a strong man, he can in turn protect the development of the family. This is the only way for a big family. What Hu Family lacked before was talent, but now he has it.
Mention this, and Hu Hanyi's lips will raise a proud smile.
His son Hu Yunting has been gifted since he was a child. A few years ago, he was selected into the Famous Sword Academy based on his talent. Now he is already in his fifth year.
As one of Five Great Immortal Sects, Famous Sword Academy is not an ordinary school. There is no fixed time limit for graduation. Disciples have practiced for more than ten years. Only when they reach a certain level can they graduate and leave school. Therefore, high school does not mean repeating a grade. It is normal to study in school for more than ten years.
Hu Yunting There is also a senior who is in his 25th grade.
But even though Hu Yunting is considered a unique genius in Jiang City, when it comes to this level of Immortal Gate, he seems ordinary. Five Great Immortal Sects has always been the same as in major cities. There are four places to participate in Ascending Dragon Tournament, but most of the disciples know their own weight and will not fight for the places in Immortal Gate. Instead, like Hu Yunting, they will return to the city where they were born to reduce the dimensionality.
During this time, Hu Hanyi was working hard for his son's cultivation.
After returning to River City to prepare for City Hero Battle, he had left the competitive environment in Immortal Gate for the past few months. He did not want his son's cultivation to slow down. Just at this time, Fox Demon Amusement Park appeared.
There was a tunnel like a deep well in the stone tower. He walked down the stairs of the tunnel and reached the deepest part, which was a very open underground space. In the center of the space, there were dozens of chains covered with talismans binding something. It was not the body of a monster, but a huge bronze mirror as tall as a person.
The surface of the bronze mirror was now pitch black.
With the arrival of Hu Hanyi, a faint light suddenly shimmered inside, and vaguely, there seemed to be a gorgeous fox shadow passing by in the mirror. "Fox Demon Empress, Hu Family's descendant Hu Hanyi is here to visit you again." Hu Hanyi bowed deeply.
Boom
As he said hello, the strong wind whipped up again, and a strong demonic energy hit him, almost knocking him out again!
"Fox Demon Empress!" Hu Hanyi shouted loudly against the strong wind, "The descendants know that you have sacrificed all your cultivation and forced Demon Domain to start, so you must have some conspiracy, right? I am here today just to ask if there is anything you need help with?"
This time the evil wind became more and more intense, and there seemed to be slaps mixed with the strong wind, slapping Hu Hanyi's mouth. Hu Family Descendants have always been afraid to enter this tower, The reason why Supervision Bureau trusts Hu Family people to take care of Fox Suppression Tower is because... anyone can secretly release the fox demon for selfish reasons, but Hu Family people can never do it.
Because they stabbed Fox Demon Empress in the back and forged a bloody feud.
But Hu Hanyi just walked in today.
He insisted on carrying the demonic wind that slapped him in the face and continued to shout, "Let me tell you straight, Fox Demon Empress, instead of losing all your cultivation, why not give it to my Hu Family descendants. If you have any requirements, Hu Family, I can satisfy you!"
"When River City was under your rule, we managed the whole city for you and were loyal to Fox Demon Empress! If Five Great Immortal Sects hadn't been so powerful and our ancestors had been forced to do nothing, they wouldn't have betrayed our empress."
"Please give us a chance to redeem our sins today!"
Call
As he finished speaking, the demonic wind around him suddenly came down, and Hu Hanyi also fell from the air and hit the ground with a thud.
As Hu Family Patriarch, even if his talent is not the strongest among the clan, he has accumulated resources to reach the peak of the Fifth Realm. But in front of Fox Demon Empress, who has been sealed for three hundred years, he is like a child being played with, completely unable to resist.
It is so terrifying to come into contact with the level of the Great Way of the Upper Three Realms.
Hu Hanyi was lying on the ground, showing no dignity whatsoever to Patriarch, and secretly raised his eyes to look up.
In the mirror, a colorful fox with seven tails was slowly reflected. It was obviously a fox face, but its eyes were full of charm and majesty.
Hu Hanyi only glanced at it and felt like he was in a trance and the world was spinning.
He immediately didn't dare to look anymore and lowered his head deeply.
A gentle female voice suddenly sounded from the surroundings.
"You are very smart, you know the cause and effect of taking the initiative but having it with me."
"You can't fool me by pretending to be crazy or acting stupid."
"If you want Virtual-Real Dao Marrow, then let you Hu Family children win by yourself. The most I can do is tell you the locations of all the playgrounds. And there is only one thing I need you to do."
"I once lost something, please help me get it."
In the blink of an eye, it is late at night again, and today the moon is full and bright, just a hair away from the full moon.
Yue Wen looked up and thought to himself that Big White seemed to be about to transform again.
There is a dilapidated unfinished building in front, with three floors, all made of cement. It stands in a remote forest with sparse trees, which is quite strange.
This place is very close to the factory area where Yue Wen and the others visited. It is said that a boss originally wanted to build a dormitory building for employees near the factory to solve the problem of employee rest, so he started construction in such a remote place.
But the cost of building a building was too high, so he let the employees do the work themselves. The workers in the factory worked during the day and built the building at night, which solved the problem of rest, because there was no chance to rest at all.
Before the building was finished, all the workers ran away, leaving only an unfinished building here.
Flame Ghost Hall River City The selection of the helmsman of the sub-rudder is decided here, and the time is tonight!
As midnight approached, all kinds of black shadows emerged from all directions, standing in the shadows of the forest. Behind each black shadow were one or two more rigid shadows.
Naturally, it's the Flame Ghost Hall evil cultivators with corpse puppets.
It's just that there are only about ten purebred evil cultivators here, and the rest are three small extras selected from various satellite city branches. A dozen disguised "evil cultivators" and about 20 corpse puppets, more than 30 people surrounded the purebred evil cultivators, and it is unclear who is undercover and who is among them.
Gongsun Yan stood on the top of the unfinished building and looked down. He saw that the evil cultivators he had found were all restrained and their movements were sharp. The "corpse puppets" following behind them were also full of sinister aura. They were all silent and looked like a gathering of powerful evil cultivators.
He couldn't help but praise, "Brother Wen, these friends you have found are really reliable. Where do they come from? Have you also practiced our corpse puppet magical power?"
"Hey." Yue Wen whispered, "It's just some small tricks. The identities of my friends are a bit sensitive, so it's not convenient to go into details. Let me tell you this, we have all been in the game... and many of us are regulars there."
"We met there." Gongsun Yan nodded understandingly, "Then I understand, there are indeed talents there."
Yue Wen smiled, "Elder Gongsun, I'm not bragging to you, my friends will feel like they're going home when they go in."
"Awesome." Gongsun Yan gave a thumbs up.
Yue Wen handed the small black storage ball to Gongsun Yan again, "Diamond Granny said that the two corpse puppets were stolen during the strengthening process. She originally wanted not to make compensation, but I kidnapped her son according to Elder Gongsun's words, and she immediately complied."
"She agreed to compensate 10 million, which is half of the deposit, and she is still raising the other half."
Gongsun Yan smiled and said, "Thank you so much, Brother Wen."
He handed another small black storage ball to Yue Wen, "Here is a little reward, don't shirk it from me, I can't let your trip go in vain." Yue Wen After scanning Spiritual Sense, there are almost ten thousand Talisman Coin in this small ball, worth one million. In other words, it is almost one-tenth of the reward for helping Gongsun Yan.
In this regard, I know the market price quite well.
Diamond Granny entrusted the firm to ask Gongsun Yan for a tenth of the reward. The disappearance of these two corpses has brought the firm millions in income.
If Yue Wen didn't accept it at this time, it would be a little inconsistent with the character. He had to reluctantly put Talisman Coin in it, and then frowned and said, "What is Elder Gongsun doing?"
"It should be." Gongsun Yan laughed and looked down at the time, "Midnight is approaching and the hall master should be arriving soon. Let's go down together to greet him."
With that said, the two of them flew to the ground together and stood at the front of the crowd, waiting for Ah Hei Yan to arrive.
Yue Wen stood slightly back, close behind Gongsun Yan.
Gongsun Yan turned around and said, "Brother Wen, you have made great contributions to the Flame Ghost Hall, so you should stand next to me."
"Elder Gongsun, I am a junior after all, you can just stand in front." Yue Wen raised his hand.
"Oh." Gongsun Yan felt warm in his heart after being praised by Yue Wen. He said in his heart that everyone is an evil cultivator. You are so arrogant and disdainful towards others, but you treat me with such respect, making others very embarrassed.
Hehe.
Tang Yan didn't have the disguised corpse puppet today. She came wearing a small black dress, and her arm was mutilated. Her broken arm was not recovered, either to install a new one, or to wait for her to practice Sixth Realm to grow it again.
Behind her was a new corpse, wrapped tightly in a black robe.
After meeting, she said hello to both Gongsun Yan and Yue Wen, her expression slightly stiff.
But it is understandable that Gongsun Yan thought to himself that if he were to challenge Wen Yan in a duel, his expression would be like this. Anyone who saw him take action that night would have this mentality.
I call Wen Yan?
I'm in style!
Everyone at the scene was already here, and the finals could start at any time. At this moment, a cold wind suddenly blew up on the spot, and all the fallen leaves among the trees were rolled up.
Boom
Countless fallen leaves rotated and flew up to the roof of the unfinished building, forming a whirlwind. After the whirlwind dissipated in a blink of an eye, the leaves smashed open, revealing a burly human figure wearing a black armor and cloak, with a red evil ghost mask covering his face.
When Gongsun Yan saw this, he took the lead to bow and shouted, "The hall master is here!"
