dead body search

Wangfenggu.

outside the valley.

In an unnamed valley.

Hundreds of people built a fire and cooked food around the creek. These people were all disciples of the Shen family in the Tianxingxia Gorge during the Qi refining period.

The Tianxingxia Shen family is a huge family, with one Jindan period ancestor, more than 10 foundation-building monks, thousands of people in the Qi refining period, and more than [-] mortal relatives.

The more than a hundred clansmen here are the branch of the Shen family that is planning to move to Wangfeng Valley.

For this migration to go smoothly.

The head of the Shen family, Shen Tianyu, personally led the team and took away almost all the foundation-establishing monks in the clan. The ancestor of the Shen family's Jindanqi followed, mighty and mighty, and escorted this branch to migrate.

It can be described as a full blow from the lion and the rabbit!
By the river beach, an old woman looked up at the sky, her expression becoming more and more anxious.

It was getting dark.

The monks of the Shen family have not returned yet?

Did it fail?
No way?
This time, the Shen family came out with all their strength, and the ancestor of the Shen family even went out in person!

How could it fail?

If it fails...

Then the Shen family will inevitably be severely damaged, and even cease to exist.

Is Xuan Yangzong so strong?

If the Xuanyang Sect is really so powerful, then I must return to Zhoujiabao to report to the Patriarch immediately, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.

"Quack quack quack...Zhou Qingmei, today is your death day." At the entrance of the valley, a 1.4-meter-tall puppet flew over, which was Ghost Emperor An'an.

The old woman standing by the river valley was Zhou Qingmei.

"Who are you? Where is this deity hiding?" Zhou Qingmei flicked her sleeves, a flying sword as black as ink surrounded her side, the cold light flickered, and the murderous intent was fully revealed.

Gui Li An'an didn't talk nonsense, raising his hand was a puppet supernatural power: lava black fire.

A jet-black magma fire fell from the sky and hit Zhou Qingmei directly.

Zhou Qingmei's complexion changed drastically, turning into a sword light and retreating sharply.

Boom.

The black fire of lava fell on the ground, burning the river hot and churning. The magma fell to the ground and immediately formed a large pit, billowing thick smoke.

What a terrifying power!

Zhou Qingmei was startled and couldn't help gasping.

Now, the deity who can't find a puppet will destroy the puppet first.

Zhou Qingmei raised her hand and pointed, and a sword light shot out, piercing the void in an instant, and stabbing the ghost emperor An'an's chest.

Puppet supernatural power: Demon Abyss.

I saw a dark shadow appearing in front of Ghost Emperor An'an.
The vortex, within the vortex came bursts of eerie magic howls, and a terrifying suction force was transmitted from the vortex, making one's hair stand on end.

Zhou Qingmei's complexion changed drastically, and she quickly retracted her sword light, but she didn't expect that sword light to be pulled into the vortex by the magic abyss.

Zhou Qingmei was shocked, and hurriedly activated the formula, trying to take back Jianguang.

But the sword light seemed to be stuck to it by a magnet, and it couldn't be taken back at all!

Zhou Qingmei was terrified, and wanted to fly back again, to distance herself from the puppet.

Puppet supernatural power: phantom.

Even though the ghost emperor's puppet speeded up, it caught up with Zhou Qingmei in an instant.

Lava black fire!

rumbling~
There were deafening explosions, magma spewed out, and flames soared into the sky.

Zhou Qingmei's body was submerged in magma, and she let out a miserable howl.

Zhou Qingmei was forcibly killed.

More than a hundred monks in the Qi refining period in the valley panicked and fled one after another. They went deeper into the valley, and scattered into the forest in an instant, without a trace.

Ghost Emperor An'an floated in mid-air and let out a ghostly laugh, then his figure flickered and disappeared.

After the ghost emperor An'an left, the Shen family who were hiding in the grass in the crevices of the rocks dared to come out. They were ordered to wait here.

Shen Tianyu, the head of the Shen family, never thought that they would fail. This group of Shen family members would either return to the wilderness on foot, or become casual cultivators on the spot...

Wangfenggu.

Patriarch Hall.

Chamber of Secrets.

The head Liu Hang, the great elder Hou Dongsheng, Suzaku, the head of the law enforcement hall Yue Ningxue, and the patriarch Yue Ningshuang gathered together to discuss the aftermath.

The Supreme Elder Wang Dalong has gone to retreat, he views himself as a thug, and he is not interested in trivial matters.

"Although many members of the Zhou family know that they have colluded with the Shen family of Tianxingxia, they must keep their mouths shut. It is absolutely impossible for them to reveal half of it to the swordsmen. The three people who may know the hidden strength of our Xuanyang sect have all been executed." Hou Dongsheng said.

"Where is the Xingxia Shen's that day?" Yue Ningshuang asked.

"Don't worry about the Shen family in Tianxingxia. The ancestors of Jindan and the spirit beasts of the town clan have all fallen, and the monks who established the foundation and the head of the clan have also died. They can't make any trouble at all." Hou Dongsheng explained.

"I'm worried about Spirit Beast Mountain. After all, the death of Jindan Patriarch is not a trivial matter." Yue Ningshuang said with a frown.

"Don't worry about Spirit Beast Mountain. After all, this is the site of the Divine Sword Sect. The Spirit Beast Mountain can only admit defeat, not to mention that they don't suspect our Xuanyang Sect. They will think it is a trap set up by the Divine Sword Sect. , can only suffer from this dumbness."

Hou Dongsheng said confidently.

"What the great elder said is true." Liu Heng nodded and said: "I also think that there will be no changes in Lingshou Mountain."

"Then the last thing, how should the surviving fourteen Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Shen family deal with it?" Yue Ningshuang said.

"Leave it to me, I'll handle it." Suzaku said, licking his tongue.

"Are there any other opinions besides killing?" Yue Ningshuang asked after a moment of silence.

Hou Dongsheng frowned and thought about it. He didn't want to kill people, but it didn't seem easy if the prisoners didn't kill them.

"These 14 people must be killed, otherwise the Spirit Beast Mountain will most likely come to save them." Yue Ningxue said.

Everyone nodded slightly...

Yue Ningshuang sighed and said, "Sister Suzaku, I'll leave it to you to deal with it. It's a night full of dreams, so deal with it as soon as possible."

"I'll help too," Hou Dongsheng said.

"The meeting is over." Yue Ningshuang said
Everyone left the secret room.

Fourteen monks from the Shen family were brought into the world of dust by Hou Dongsheng. After entering the world of dust, they would surely die, but Hou Dongsheng would not kill them so quickly.

Suzaku needs their blood to refine blood cubes.

……

Zhoujiabao.

inner fort.

The foundation-building monks of the Zhou family gathered together, each of them looked dignified and nervous.

"The Law Enforcement Hall of the Divine Sword Sect is coming, do you know something?" Someone whispered, with a hint of fear and trepidation in his tone.

"Is it because we colluded..."

"Shut up! There's no such thing at all." Zhou Ruyu's official wife, Zhao Suya, sternly shouted, "There is only one thing for us to gather here now, and all things related to Tianxing Gorge will be erased from memory. Anyone who mentions it will be a traitor!"

"Hmph! My Zhou family's cultivators are not fools. Naturally, I wouldn't take the initiative to bring up this matter in front of the Law Enforcement Hall of the Divine Sword Gate. It's just that Jindan Daoist from the Law Enforcement Hall led the team. Why didn't the elder brother show up as the patriarch?" It was Zhou Ruyu's second brother Zhou Rupeng.

"The patriarch is in seclusion. He said that if there is an accident after leaving the seclusion, all matters in the clan will be handled by the palace." Zhao Suya said with a flash of eyes.

Zhou Rupeng smiled coldly: "Sister-in-law, according to the clan rules, everything in the clan should be decided by the elders!"

"Now is an extraordinary time!" Zhao Suya snapped.

"Even if the eldest brother can't retreat! Then the young patriarch should show up, why is Zhou Cheng'an still missing?" Zhou Rupeng continued to ask.

Zhao Suyasu clenched her hands into fists and remained silent.

"Master of the Excalibur Gate is here!" Following the roar of the boy outside the gate, the foundation-building monks of the Zhou family in the hall stood up one after another.

Both Zhao Suya and Zhou Rupeng wanted to lead the monks of the Zhou family to meet the Master of the Divine Sword Sect.

The two did not give in to each other and could only walk side by side.

There are about [-] or so foundation-building monks from the Zhou family. They line up on both sides, facing the entrance of the main hall.

Half of the people support Zhao Suya, and half of them support Zhou Rupeng, the difference is clear.

A middle-aged man in white clothes, about 50 years old, walked over slowly. He was wearing a large black robe, with his hands behind his back, and he looked mighty. The monks all have cultivation bases in the middle stage of foundation establishment.

"Meet the master!"

"Meet the master!"

Zhao Shuya and Zhou Rupeng led a team to greet them at the same time.

Many Foundation Establishment cultivators shouted in unison, their voices were deafening and magnificent.

"Everyone, please rise." The middle-aged master said calmly.

"Thank you master!" Many monks stood up.

The middle-aged master nodded, walked straight to the middle of the main hall, and sat down in the first seat, and the others took their seats in turn.

One of the monks in the Law Enforcing Hall introduced: "Fellow Taoists of the Zhou family, this is the Great Elder of our sect, the Daoist Luofan."

"I've met Great Elder Luofan!" The foundation-builders of the Zhou family bowed again and said respectfully.

"Fellow daoists, you are welcome." Daoist Luo Fan raised his hand slightly and said.

"I came here this time because Zhou Tianhua's soul lamp suddenly went out, and I thought it was an invasion by foreign enemies, so I came here in person." Master Luo Fan said straight to the point.

"Zhou Tianhua's soul lamp suddenly went out, how...how is this possible?" Zhou Rupeng was full of surprise.

Zhao Shuya's eyes were also full of shock.

Zhou Tianhua!He is the only Jindan Daoist in the Zhou family.

The three families of Zhou, Hu, and Li in Tianji City are able to stand on top of each other because the Zhou family has this real person as their town.

But now that this real person is dead, does this mean that the Zhou family will no longer be able to gain a foothold in Tianji City as the second-level power of the Divine Sword Sect?

The Zhou Family Foundation Establishment cultivators present all looked panic-stricken and confused.

Zhou Rupeng took a deep breath and asked, "Grand Elder, is what you said true?"

"How can you talk nonsense about this kind of thing." Daoist Luofan said indifferently.

"This..." Zhou Rupeng's heart was cold, he vaguely guessed something, but he was not sure.

"Zhou Tianhua died in the back mountain of Zhoujiabao. I have just inspected the scene and found the smell of third-order blood vines. Among them, a young disciple was obviously killed by blood vines. In addition, Zhou Tianhua's body Nowhere to be seen, I just want to ask how did you offend Yulingzong and be retaliated by them like this?" Daoist Luofan questioned.

Zhou Rupeng's complexion changed drastically when he heard the words, and he hurriedly said: "Elder, our Zhou family in Tianji City has nothing to do with the Demon Sect Yulingzong, and we don't know how to offend this Demon Sect."

"Since it doesn't matter, why did they kill you? What kind of treasure did your Zhou family get?" Real Luofan asked with a frown.

"No, absolutely not." Zhou Rupeng shook his head repeatedly.

"No?" Reverend Luofan asked with a smile: "If not, why did Yulingzong sneak into Zhoujiabao and kill Zhou Huaitian?"

"This..." Zhou Rupeng was speechless.

Zhao Suya suddenly got up and came to the real Luofan and said in a cheerful manner: "I want to report to the elder, I am the wife of Zhou Ruyu, the head of the Zhou family. My husband Zhou Ruyu and my son Zhou Chengan have both passed away half a day ago. I think they may have fallen together with Zhou Huaitian's ancestor, and the Qianji Hall of our clan was also destroyed by fire two days ago, someone must have wanted to hide some secret, and just now they did this move, and invited the elder of the master to be a concubine Make up your own mind!"

"Oh?" Reverend Luofan's eyes sparkled when he heard the words. After a moment of contemplation, he turned to look at Zhou Rupeng and asked in surprise, "Aren't you the head of the Zhou family?"

"To the great elder, the young Zhou Rupeng is Zhou Ruyu's second younger brother." Zhou Rupeng hastily explained.

"You are not the head of the Zhou family, why do you keep taking my words? I really don't know what it means." Master Luofan sneered.

Zhou Rupeng's face turned red, he didn't know how to explain it, and his heart was extremely angry.

How could Zhou Rupeng be able to replace his elder brother as the head of the family after being face-swept by Jindan Daoist of Shenjianmen today?

This bitch!

Zhou Rupeng looked at Zhao Suya with hatred on his face.

Zhou Ruyu and his two wives had two sons. The eldest son, Zhou Chengan, a monk who established the foundation, was extremely talented and was established as the head of the young patriarch early on.

The second son, Zhou Chengyong, is also talented, but unfortunately he is still a monk in the Qi refining stage, but Zhou Chengyong's mother, Zhao Suya, is not weak.

Now that the eldest brother and the eldest nephew have fallen together, this woman just took the opportunity to secure the position of head of the family so as to pave the way for her son.

"Forget it...the enemy is clever. They wiped out all those who knew the truth. Those who stay here are a bunch of idiots who don't know anything. They are a waste of my time." Daoist Luo Fan waved his sleeves and got up. Walk.

"Respectfully send off the master!" Everyone in the Zhou family bowed in unison.

……

a few days later.

Wangfenggu, Weigu.

above the open air.

Hou Dongsheng danced to meet the moon, his clothes fluttering.

An hour later.

Hou Dongsheng received his merit.

A ray of light fell in front of him, and it was the head of the sect, Liu Heng.

"What's the matter?" Hou Dongsheng asked.

Liu Heng cupped his hands and saluted: "Grand Elder, great joy! The envoy of the Zhou family told us that as long as we support Zhou Rupeng as the head of the Zhou family, we will be exempted from offering for one year."

"Oh?" Hou Dongsheng nodded lightly, noncommittal.

Two more days passed.

Head Liu Heng reported again: "Grand Elder, great joy! The envoy of the Zhou family told us that as long as we support Zhou Chengyong as the head of the Zhou family, we will be exempted from three years of offerings."

"Oh..." Hou Dongsheng was noncommittal again.

a few days later.

"Great Elder! Overjoyed, many monks from the Shen family want to defect to us. Do you think we should accept them or not?"

"Follow the rules!" Hou Dongsheng replied.

"Then I will enter the sect according to the sect rules."

Hou Dongsheng nodded.

A month later...

"Grand Elder, great joy! The Hu family from Tianji City came to persuade us to join the Hu family. The Hu family not only exempted us from three years of worship, but also gave us [-] spirit stones." Liu Hang announced the good news.

"Oh..." Hou Dongsheng looked calm.

After half a stick of incense.

"Why are you here again?" Hou Dongsheng asked.

"Grand Elder, I am very happy today! The Li family from Tianji City came to persuade us to join the Li family. As long as we agree to join the Li family, not only will we be exempted from the five-year offering, but we will also be given [-] spirit stones!" Liu Heng said excitedly.

Hou Dongsheng: "..."

Xuanyangzong.

Patriarch Hall Secret Meeting.

Participants: Patriarch Yue Lingshuang, Law Enforcement Hall Yue Ningxue, Head Liu Hang, Head Wife Xiong Wang, Great Elder Hou Dongsheng, Dan Hall Suzaku, Lingcao Hall Li Yueer.

At this time, Li Yue'er had finished her closed-door training and successfully broke through to the foundation-building stage. Now there are five foundation-building monks in the Xuanyang Sect: Liu Hang, Hou Dongsheng, Yue Ningxue, Suzaku, and Li Yue'er.

Topic of the meeting: Who will the Xuanyang sect depend on?

I only listened to the head Liu Henghui's report: "The Zhou family in Tianji City suffered heavy losses. Not only the ancestor of Jindan fell, but also the head of the family and the heir of the head of the family fell together. At this time, the widow faction headed by Zhao Suya and the second uncle headed by Zhou Rupeng The fight for power and profit has reached a fever pitch..."

"In addition, the Hu family and the Li family have also known the current tragedy of the Zhou family. Since the three families are all under the management of the Shenjianmen, Li and the Hu family did not rob and plunder on the surface, but they secretly made small moves. Quite a few, and more frequently in recent times, many third-level forces attached to the Zhou family have already received invitations from the Hu and Li families, and now these two families are also persuading us to defect from the Zhou family and join them..."

"Now our Xuanyang Sect has five choices, one is to support the widow faction to seize power; the second is to support the second uncle faction to seize power; the third is to defect to the Li family; the fourth is to defect to the Hu family; How to choose the door, I also ask the ancestors and elders to show me."

After listening to the report from the head of the sect, Yue Ningshuang, the patriarch Yue Ningshuang said with a smile: "Everyone here is a humerus of our sect. Now, what should our sect do, please speak freely."

Everyone was silent.

Yue Ningshuang smiled slightly and said to Liu Hang: "Liu Heng! As the head of the sect, you handle everything in the sect, please share your opinion."

Liu Heng obviously had a plan long ago, he cupped his hands and said, "I think this door should be kept up for sale."

"This door can't be held all the time." Hou Dongsheng said.

"If it really comes to a time when I can't handle it, I suggest going to the Li family." Liu Hang said.

Yue Ningshuang asked, "Why?"

Liu Heng said: "Because the strength of the Li family is the head of the three families, Li Fengyun is powerful, good at fighting, has never lost a single defeat, and has a high prestige. As the saying goes, a good bird chooses a tree to live in. We might as well consider the conditions of the Li family. The conditions are indeed the highest."

"I object!" Everyone looked at the bald bear king.

"Tell me your reason." Yue Ningshuang said.

"Liu Heng has selfish intentions!" The bald bear king pointed at Liu Heng.

"I didn't!" Liu Heng jumped up suddenly.

"Still saying no! The Li Xiaoyu that Li's family came to lobby for has soft and graceful skin. You can't take your eyes off her when you see her, just like a licking dog!" The bald bear king snorted coldly.

"I didn't! I'm a gentleman, I'm not a dog licker." Liu Heng jumped up as if his tail had been stepped on.

"Hahahaha..." Everyone roared with laughter.

Yue Ningshuang smiled slightly, and said, "Okay, don't laugh at Head Liu, Elder Hou, tell me your opinion."

Hou Dongsheng stopped his smile, pondered for a while and said: "Let's start with it. As for the direction of our sect, we need to make a long-term plan."
