Qiu Ruoshuang shook her head at Su Chen's suggestion."My elder sister's son is rash and violent. Relying on the protection of the power behind him, he has always acted willfully and somewhat domineeringly. This time the injury might be his own fault." Qiu Ruoshuang, as a member of the Qiu family, said so, so it is most likely the truth. "Is this so" After hearing this, Su Chen didn't know how to respond. “It is indeed difficult to choose between affinity and reason. If it were me, I would probably choose to help my relatives." He knew he was in the wrong, but there was nothing he could do as he was a member of his own clan. Hearing Su Chen's words, Qiu Ruoshuang felt a little relieved.
All she could do was stand by her elder sister. Of course, it would be best if this contradiction could be resolved. But right now, that doesn't seem likely. The news that came in said that Sang Moyuan was seriously injured. Even if the other party was willing to resolve the conflict, Qiu Ruoshuang knew that her sister would definitely not agree. "It will take time to consolidate the third level. I have already had some insights. Should I retreat for a while longer?" Su Chen stated his proposal, and Qiu Ruoshuang nodded when she heard it. "My second brother will go to help my sister deal with it. I plan to return to Tonglu City and practice in seclusion for a few months. This time, I should be able to maintain my third-grade realm." In her mind, Qiu Ruoshuang recorded all the instructions Su Chen gave her. If I go back and immerse myself in spiritual practice, I should be able to move forward. The two stayed in the frontier camp for one last night. Prepare to leave tomorrow morning. The front line of defense without monsters intruding is actually quite easy. If you climb high and look far, you can see the beautiful scenery. While the two were talking, Su Chen intentionally or unintentionally avoided calling Qiu Ruoshuang's name. When Su Chen mentioned Qiu Ruoshuang before, he always called her Senior Qiu. But after the thoughts in his mind became clearer, Su Chen didn't want to call her senior anymore. The difference in seniority always makes me feel uncomfortable But if not Senior Qiu, what should I call him? Su Chen didn't call him now and just ignored him.
Just say whatever you want to say, ignore it completely. It is naturally impolite and inappropriate for a younger generation to behave like this in front of their elders. But Qiu Ruoshuang also felt that this was better. When she heard the name "Senior Qiu", she felt a little uncomfortable. The night passed. After breakfast, the two prepared to leave the front-line camp. But today, there happened to be many young female disciples from various forces arriving. Most of these female disciples were invited to get closer to Su Chen. When encountering these things today, Su Chen stood half a step behind Qiu Ruoshuang, saying some polite words to prevaricate. Qiu Ruoshuang also had a smile on her face, but she felt quite resentful in her heart. After evading the question, Su Chen followed Qiu Ruoshuang as if escaping, and then hurriedly headed southwest. After walking a little further, Qiu Ruoshuang looked at the camp in the distance, and then looked at Su Chen. There was a hint of resentment on his face. But when Su Chen saw Qiu Ruoshuang's expression, he just wanted to laugh. It's still the kind of uncontrollable desire to laugh, feel happy and joyful. After a moment, the smile on Su Chen's face was also seen by Qiu Ruoshuang. She was so smart, how could she not know what Su Chen was laughing at. Hesitantly, he turned his face away. The two of them didn't say anything, but they knew what each other was thinking. Talking about going into seclusion as soon as possible. But during the journey to Tonglu City, Qiu Ruoshuang was not too anxious. The two also tasted local delicacies in the cities they passed by. It took nearly fourteen days of journey to reach the small courtyard in Tonglu City. Qiu Ruoshuang is about to start her retreat, and Su Chen is also going to check out the secret place according to the map. Zhu Ming Palace. Palace Master Yao Wen has been very irritable lately. At this moment, another disciple was escorted into the side hall. “Palace Master, this person is sneaky and comes and goes near the alchemy room several times a day.
The intention to steal the palace's secrets is obvious." Looking at the disciple who was under pressure in front of him, Yao Wen just raised his eyes and glanced. "Recruited?" "Palace Master, this person is very stubborn and refuses to speak." Yao Wen looked at the four elders beside him. “Leave it to the Fourth Elder. Without his approval, no disciple who does not hold a high enough position in the palace is allowed to approach the alchemy room. Even if he is not a spy from other sects, he will be severely punished according to palace rules. If you can’t bear it, just die.” Palace Master Yao Wen's words frightened the disciple so much that his legs almost went limp to death. Even without using more in-depth measures, the results are already so significant. “If you have anything to confess, just say it if you are willing. If your confession has some value, Zhu Minggong will not torture you. You can even be allowed to maintain your current status and continue to be Zhu Minggong's disciple. You should be able to see clearly what the future of Zhu Ming Palace will be like. The number one alchemy sect in Jin must be Zhu Ming Palace." The disciple seemed unable to bear the combination of kindness and severity. Yao Wen was not interested in listening to him anymore. Even if he wanted to confess, he was not interested in listening. And the less he took it, the more willing the disciple was to confess. In fact, relying on this method, Zhu Minggong has already attracted many lurking people. The disciples sent by other forces to lurk here actually have some talent and potential. Coming to Zhuming Palace to inquire about news is different from going to other sects to inquire about news. Send some incompetent disciples and let them watch and listen to Zhu Ming Palace's elixir refining method, will they be able to understand it? It is completely different from sending people to gather information through other means. After this little episode, they continued discussing business in the side hall. "What is the attitude of Wulan Villa now? Our current concessions have reached their limit. If they continue to push their limits, then let’s have a show of skill to see if we, the Zhu Ming Palace, are really afraid of them.” As Yao Wen finished speaking, the second elder on the side spoke up to reply. “The people at Wulan Villa should also know that Su Chen is no longer in Zhuming Palace.
In recent times, most of the people stationed outside the sect have withdrawn. The rest of us are using this as an excuse to steal secrets from us.” As the second elder finished speaking, the third elder next to him snorted and continued to add. "There are only so many strong people in Wulan Villa. They have a lot of messes left over. How can they get more manpower and resources to come here? In my opinion, those who are still pestering us are spies who want to find out our secrets. Behind the scenes, it is not just Wulan Villa that is causing trouble." The third elder's guess was also recognized by others. "There are many people in the whole Jin State who are watching us now. Fortunately, the Palace Master’s previous decision was correct. If Su Chen continues to stay in the palace, Zhu Ming Palace will face greater pressure. Now, at least the situation is somewhat under control." Hearing this, Yao Wen still frowned. Seeing the expression of their Palace Master, several elders looked at each other and did not continue speaking. After a while, Yao Wen spoke slowly. "Actually, I often feel regretful now. Maybe we should try to protect Su Chen. Facing Wulan Villa, the huge Zhuming Palace would not be afraid of them. Now that it is like this, even if we in Zhu Ming Palace are still on good terms with Su Chen, the extent of our friendship will be limited. It is impossible to go any further.” Seeing Yao Wen's regret, the other elders were much calmer than him. “Su Chen is indeed a huge help to our Zhuming Palace. But facing Wulan Villa and the furious Fan Chengyan. If Zhu Minggong forcibly protects him, he will definitely suffer a lot of losses. Even the entire sect will be in panic. Palace Master, your choice is correct." After the chief elder finished speaking, several elders nearby began to express their own ideas. Although it was said in a euphemistic way, everyone's meaning was actually quite clear. To put it bluntly, they are not optimistic about Su Chen's future. They were grateful for Su Chen's kindness to Zhu Ming Palace.
But he protected her with the whole clan's strength, thus sacrificing the interests of Zhu Ming Palace. The elders cannot make up their minds to do this. And the second elder said that he had another plan, which was his granddaughter Ming Yaoyao. If Su Chen can survive this disaster, he will agree to let his granddaughter and Su Chen be together. Ming Yaoyao has already been convinced, and she is willing to give Su Chen a try to get closer. With this foreshadowing, if I try to win Su Chen over again in the future, maybe they will be closer than before. Yao Wen frowned and didn't say whether this was feasible or not. After some hesitation, he did not have any further conversation with the elders. How could he not know what the elders under his command were thinking? The decision has been made, there is no chance to regret. Zhu Minggong at least still stands on Su Chen's side. The constraints on Wulan Villa have always been there. Yao Wen, the Palace Master, has also already contacted the forces above him. The troubles encountered by Zhu Ming Palace will all disappear after a while. As long as the forces above him are willing to protect Su Chen, he will no longer have to worry about the attack from Wulan Villa. But Fan Chengyan's uncontrollable crisis still exists and we need to be vigilant at all times. At night, Yao Wen sent several letters. The contents of the letters were the same, both were written to Su Chen. The content was to ask Su Chen to meet in Baimei City after a while. Then they will go together to meet the force that he had mentioned to Su Chen before. At the same time, after separating from Qiu Ruoshuang, Su Chen first went to a small town in the south. Su Chen bought a small courtyard here. Before leaving Zhuming Palace to find Qiu Ruoshuang, he wrote a letter to those in Tiangang City. From now on, any letters sent to me by Tiangang City will be sent directly to this house in this small city. I will take the time to take a look and give you a reply. Before going to a secret place for training, Su Chen first arrived at this small town house. Sure enough, there were two letters from Tiangang City in a specific location of the house. Tiangang City is very peaceful now, and Wulan Villa from Jin State has not caused trouble again.
There are two powerful masters of the Transformation Realm from Taihe Sect here. If Wulan Villa wants to bully Tiangang City, it will cost a lot. After thinking about it, they probably gave up. The letter also talked about some things that happened in the Great Zhou Dynasty. After the incident of the Great Zhou royal family getting closer to Wulan Villa to deal with Tiangang City broke out. The Zhou court was greatly affected. Moreover, they have not yet succeeded, and many sects and forces no longer give them face. The two major sects, Tiangang City and Yunyang Sect, also joined forces this time. Together they attacked the Zhou Dynasty court and seized many interests that originally belonged to the court and the royal family. In the past, all parties checked and restrained each other. Now they have aroused public anger, which is what they deserve. Su Chen had anticipated these things before. It's not surprising that it happens now. The letter surprised him greatly, as it contained some news about Fu Jianyun. Fu Jianyun was once the number one prodigy among the younger generation of the Great Zhou. He actually returned to Da Zhou. When Su Chen saw this message, he even suspected that it was written wrong. I met Fu Jianyun and Sun Xuerong at the Xuanying Conference a while ago. How come he suddenly returned to Da Zhou? The letter didn't go into great detail; it was just told to Su Chen as a joke. After Fu Jianyun returned to the Great Zhou, he wanted to join the Yunyang Sect again. But this time, Master Taiwu and the others disagreed. Even if the top leaders of Yunyang Sect were blind, they could still see what kind of person Fu Jianyun was. Even if his talent was several times better than it is now, the Yunyang Sect would not support him again. Nowadays, the training of Yunyang Sect falls on Liu Xingwan. She did not disappoint the Yunyang Sect elders' confidence and has now been promoted to the sixth level of perfection. Don’t even think about training him, Fu Jianyun. In fact, this trip to Jin State made Fu Jianyun somewhat desperate. In the past, he was a favored child of heaven in the Great Zhou, and was valued and favored by not only the sect.
Throughout the Zhou Kingdom, no matter who it is, when they hear the name Fu Jianyun, they can't help but look sideways. The Great Zhou has a lot of experience, and will change the time of the meeting for Fu Jianyun alone. He was asked to participate in many competitions. If Fu Jianyun does not participate in the competition, then it will be a meaningless competition in the Great Zhou. But go to Jin State and go to Wulan Villa. He, Fu Jianyun, was not even qualified to represent Wulan Villa to attend the Xuanying Conference. What a genius, what a pride. He was tired of hearing these names before, but after arriving in Jin State, Fu Jianyun had never heard anyone describe him like this. That’s not right. His master, Sun Xuerong, would brag about him in front of outsiders. At first, many people’s eyes will light up. In the State of Jin, those who are called pride and genius are not ordinary warriors. But after Fu Jianyun demonstrated his martial arts skills, these people just laughed. Maybe a lot of sarcastic words have already emerged in your heart. As the top genius of the Great Zhou, he was no match for the giant State of Jin. The core disciples of small and medium-sized sects are no less capable than Fu Jianyun. Moreover, the martial arts techniques he learned were far more sophisticated than Fu Jianyun's. Looking at the entire Jin State, Fu Jianyun is just an insignificant person. Whether he was there or not, the warriors of Jin State didn't care. This huge gap has an extremely huge impact on Fu Jianyun himself. The defeat at the Xuanying Conference was the fuse. When you see your unbeatable opponent lose to another person. As a result, this man was nothing in front of Su Chen and was easily defeated. In other words, Fu Jianyun is several levels lower than Su Chen. A disciple whom he had completely looked down upon. It can't even be said that he looked down on him. Before in Yunyang Sect, Su Chen was a disciple he didn't see. It couldn't catch his eye at all. Nowadays, it seems that the order is reversed. The person who was looked down upon became him.
