The night was deeper, the cold was heavier, and the wind howling on the top of the mountain seemed to carry a murderous aura.

No one spoke at this point, and everyone's nerves seemed to be tense, almost unanimously, and everyone felt that the atmosphere had become tense for no reason.

The meeting hall of the Huashan Sect General Hall is still brightly lit at the moment, looking like the bright moon on the top of the mountain, shining in an extremely dazzling light.

Bypassing a long mountain road, under the guidance of two Huashan deacon disciples, Tang Feng and the others finally arrived at the hall after half a cup of tea.

Bright candles flickered, and in addition to sixteen large pearls of the night, the main hall was not electrified, as if to maintain the charm of antiquity.

Even the furnishings of the hall are in the ancient format, with sixteen fine pear blossom rice chairs arranged in two directions, and three tiger skin Taishi chairs in the middle.

Eight thick pillars of the two-person Environmental Protection Bureau are supported, making the whole hall very magnificent, and at this moment, Lu Zhanpeng, the head of the Huashan faction, is sitting on the main seat of the Taishi chair in the middle.

Although in terms of the status of the rivers and lakes, Lu Zhanpeng may not be as good as the help of the Shaolin Xuanfa Master and the beggar gang, nor can he be compared to Zu Long and Duan Hongyi and others.

But at this moment, this is Huashan, as the head of Huashan, Lu Zhanpeng naturally sits in the main seat according to the rules, as for Ling Xuzi, he sits on the left side to accompany him, and on the right is the deputy head of Huashan.

Seeing Zu Long and the others coming, Lu Zhanpeng immediately got up and said with a smile on his face: "Late night invitation, the old man really can't help it, please take a seat!"

Zu Long remained silent, and bowed back slightly: "Master Lu cares so much about the affairs of the Jianghu martial arts, so naturally there is no reason for us not to come." ”

Lu Zhanpeng still said with a smile: "The rivers and lakes all say that Zulong cares about the safety of the world, and he is the greatest man of chivalry, and what he sees today is indeed extraordinary." ”

Zu Long waved his hand slightly and said: "Master Lu is polite, the old man is a martial artist, but he is just doing something that he can do." ”

Ling Xuzi also smiled: "In the martial arts of the rivers and lakes, if everyone can serve the country and the people like Zulong, then it will really be a blessing for me in China." ”

Zu Long smiled and didn't answer, obviously he was quite disdainful of this Ling Xuzi.

Ling Xuozi knew that he was bored, so he smiled and sat down angrily.

Master Xuanfa sat in the guest chair on the left, folded his hands and said: "You are all famous in the rivers and lakes today, now that you have arrived here, you will be exempt from politeness, let's discuss tonight's important matters." ”

Lu Zhanpeng sat back in the main seat and said loudly: "Yes, there are two main things to invite all martial arts celebrities to come tonight, one of which is to give a reward to Huashan Sword Champion. ”

"As for this second thing, it is naturally to discuss how to deal with this Southwest Nine Pole Gate. ”

Hong Qitian said: "The old beggar is a rough man, and he speaks directly, this Huashan sword winner reward, since it has already been condensed, it is enough to stab Tang Long directly, as for the second thing, I think before discussing, it is better to determine the martial arts alliance master." ”

Duan Hongyi followed closely and said: "Yes, the so-called dragons without a leader are a rabble, this martial arts alliance leader, it is better to make it early, only by electing the martial arts alliance leader and leading the entire rivers and lakes, can we better discuss how to deal with the southwest Jiuji Gate." ”

Hong Qitian said: "According to the rules set before Huashan discussed the sword, now that the competition is won by Tang Long, then the leader of this martial arts alliance should be served by Zu Long, what are the objections to everyone here?"

As soon as he said this, the council hall suddenly became quiet, and the atmosphere was a little weird.

Zu Long just listened, as an old Jianghu, of course he knew that it was not appropriate for him to speak at this time.

Everyone was silent again and again, and finally Duan Hongyi broke the silence: "It is a rule that has been set a long time ago, Huashan is fair and just, and my Dali Duan clan supports Zulong as the leader of the martial arts alliance." ”

Hong Qitian said: "My beggar gang seconded the proposal, I don't know what Shaolin wants?"

Since the question was asked, even if the Xuanfa master wanted to be silent at this time, he had to speak: "Since it is a rule that has been set a long time ago, my Shaolin naturally has no objections. ”

Hong Qitian and Duan Hongyi nodded, and then the two of them turned their heads at the same time and looked at Lu Zhanpeng on the main seat.

For a while, everyone in the hall, including the heads of the Emei Iron Sword Sect and other sects, turned their heads and looked at Lu Zhanpeng and Ling Xuzi on the main seat.

Lu Zhanpeng owed slightly, and seemed to feel a little uncomfortable in front of everyone, and pretended to cough twice and said: "As you said, this is the rule that I jointly set in advance, and I, Huashan, naturally agree, otherwise wouldn't it be a backsliding?"

Ling Xuzi also had to speak: "Lu Zhanpeng is right, I, Wudang, also agreed, to support Zu Long as the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance, and lead the group to fight against the Nine Pole Gate." ”

Everyone couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief when they heard this, and the development of the situation was quite smooth so far.

However, Tang Feng, who was sitting below, frowned slightly at this time, and subconsciously told him about it, but he was afraid that something was unusual.

Because tonight, Lu Zhanpeng and Ling Xuzi's reactions were really abnormal, and it stands to reason that they shouldn't be so positive.

After all, in today's competition, Tang Feng not only abolished Lu Zhanpeng's apprentice, but also thwarted the Flying Dragon Envoy, causing them to lose face as the so-called Five Great Sects, and it was impossible for Ling Xuzi and the others not to hold a grudge in their hearts.

It's just that for a while, Tang Feng couldn't say anything weird, so he could only wait and see.

Several major sects in the rivers and lakes, including the Tang Sect, have agreed to Zu Long as the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance, and the rest of the small sects naturally have no opinions, and of course they don't dare to have any opinions.

Lu Zhanpeng waved his hand, signaled everyone to be quiet, and said, "Since the matter of the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance has been decided, let's ask Tang Longjian to step forward and receive the reward." ”

The reward had already been prepared, and it was placed on the main table at this moment, and it was contained in two ancient wooden plates, both of which should have red cloths on them.

Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but sigh slightly, and at the same time, their eyes looking at Tang Feng couldn't help but show envy, after all, this reward was not cheap, just that half a drop of Qilin True Blood, plus the Heavenly Spirit Fruit was tempting enough.

Tang Feng didn't hesitate, nor did he twist, after all, this was what he deserved, so he got up and walked forward.

Lu Zhanpeng was still sitting there, looking at him and smiling: "Tang Long's young and promising talents, he is really worthy of being the first day of the young generation!"

Ling Xuozi next to him also smiled: "Tang Long's thorn is the envoy of the Dragon Group, with such a strong cultivation talent, he will definitely take over the position of the ancestral dragon in the future, even this martial arts alliance leader, it may not be impossible in the future, it is true, the future is immeasurable, and the safety of the martial arts in the rivers and lakes in the future will have to be troubled by Tang Tianjiao." ”

"The two seniors are serious!" Tang Feng arched his hand, his face was calm, and he didn't feel fluttering because of a few words from the two, on the contrary, at this time, there was an inexplicable uneasiness in his heart.

"Please accept the reward, congratulations!" Lu Zhanpeng said and got up, and together with Ling Xuzi, he picked up the wooden plate and handed it to Tang Feng.

Tang Feng didn't think much about it, and stretched out his two hands to take the wooden plate.

However, at this moment, a sudden change occurred, Lu Zhanpeng and Ling Xuzi lifted the red cloth on the wooden plate, and two black smoke suddenly rose into the sky and rushed towards Tang Feng.

"Do it, kill!" Lu Zhanpeng and Ling Xuzi were furious, and rushed towards Tang Feng like thunder.
