On December 29, after Huang Santu sent people to take Liu Guangyan and Shu Jinye back to Daoling Sect, a war of words began.

Nie Zhao of Huayun Prefecture issued a statement saying that the former domain lord was unfortunately killed, and he was also deeply saddened, and everything in the current domain lord's mansion was calm, and he hoped that Dao Ling Sect would hand over several family members of the former domain lord and let them return to Huayun Prefecture.

Qin Feng quickly replied, Huayun Prefecture can no longer guarantee the safety of Liu Guangyan and the others, and the sect master of my sect has a deep friendship with the former domain master, and he will take care of his family.

Nie Zhao did not hesitate to ask, if it is a deep friendship, he has been running hard for many years after following the former domain lord saddle and horse, it can be said that he is loyal, the sun and the moon can be seen, Dao Lingzong forcibly took Liu Guangyan and a few people, did he take the opportunity to control the descendants of the Shu family in order to covet the ambition of the domain master seal?

Qin Feng quickly ridiculed each other, and the domain lord transposed overnight, this matter was earth-shattering, Nie Zhao was the most suspicious person, if Dao Lingzong let Liu Guangyan and a few people return to Huayun Prefecture, wouldn't he fall into danger by himself?

......

In all this, the two sides have been arguing back and forth, arguing from the previous year to the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, and there has been no result.

However, in just a few days, the entire pattern of Huayu has quietly completed a major change.

Behind the Seven Star Palace, there is no doubt that there is the Hidden Sword Tower, and Qingxu Valley and Wuxuanmen do not know which one has the support of each other, and the three major sects, which were already extremely strong, have expanded and sublimated again, and have begun to expand unscrupulously, no longer satisfied with the territory of the original state.

But what is extremely subtle is that the three parties seem to have formed a tacit understanding with each other, on the one hand, they are spreading their spheres of influence at a rapid pace, and on the other hand, the well water does not interfere with the river water, and even if there are some sporadic frictions, they will quickly restrain themselves, and there has never been a major dispute.

Therefore, it is the surrounding families and sect forces that suffer. Even if it is as strong as the Qian family in Xunwu Prefecture, it will be violently suppressed by Qingxu Valley in a few days, and the surrender of high-level personnel and the absconding of absconding, a huge family will collapse in a short period of time.

When the three major sects converged and tried to exert their strength on the academy, they were stunned to find that Canglan Prefecture was already empty and depressed, and the disciples and elders of the academy had already calmly packed up their belongings and went to Nanming Prefecture in a flying machine, leaving only a silent pavilion building.

The academy was the first to retreat to Daoling Sect, but it was definitely not the last.

Within a few days, the sects and families with the support of the feudal domain behind them were expanding wildly, and Huang Santu also mobilized all the dark lines all over the Huayu, but all the forces that were friendly with the Daoling Sect received the corresponding notice, some of them went to Nanmingzhou with their treasures without saying a word, and some hesitated and did not want to leave their hometowns.

For the latter, Yu Ling was not too reluctant, anyway, in addition to the academy, he actually didn't care much about the life and death of other sects and families, with the current strength of the Dao Ling Sect, even if the entire Huayu had to fight against him, Yu Ling was not afraid of a battle.

For Dao Ling Zong, this is probably the most lively New Year.

From the first day of the Lunar New Year to the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, a large number of cultivators came from all over the Chinese Domain every day, the elders of the Daoling Sect were busy to the point of exploding, Huang Santu was busy screening whether these outsiders had any spies who had mixed in, Qin Feng was busy arranging the residences of these people, and Yuling also wanted to meet with the leaders of various sects, family patriarchs, and other leaders, and discuss with them the treatment and next arrangements.

After the fifth day of the first month, the number of people who went to Daoling Sect decreased a lot, but there were still many "refugees" who migrated one after another, and most of them regretted that their intestines were blue, and they were annoyed why they didn't listen to Yuling's persuasion and set off early to take refuge, but now the whole family has been scattered, so they hurriedly fled with their relatives.

The pattern of Huayu is changing day by day, even if Yuling has expanded the authority of the Dark Pupil Hall as much as possible, Huang Santu, Lian Mao, and Bang Yuan are still very busy, because a large amount of information is presented every day, and it takes a lot of effort just to sift through useful information and organize it into a book, not to mention the work of reviewing the moles.

By the fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, the pattern of Huayu was a little clearer, the Seven Star Palace, Qingxu Valley, and Wuxuanmen each occupied the territory of seven or eight states, and the newly rising Umbrella Lianzong included five major state capitals, including Wuhua Prefecture, and the domain lord mansion headed by Nie Zhao also expanded rapidly, not only building the base camp Huayun Prefecture into an iron plate, but also taking the territory of influence of nine states, becoming a behemoth that cannot be underestimated.

In addition, several families that could only be regarded as second-rate suddenly flourished, although they were not as good as the several sects of the Seven Star Palace, but they also occupied two or three state capitals each. What's more, the Seven Star Hall and other big forces had no intention of doing anything to them at all, and it seemed that some kind of agreement had been reached in secret.

The Hua Domain has turned the world upside down, and although these sects are all indigenous forces that have been inherited for a long time, most of the cultivators know that they have been firmly controlled by the Domain. Even if the name is still the same name, the nature is very different.

In comparison, on the contrary, the Daoling Sect is more in line with the standards of the local forces in Huayu, even if Yuling, the sect master, is also an outsider, but for the people of Huayu, Yuling was born in the academy, rose in Huayu, and also took away the crown of the first day of talent in the world, there is almost no Huayu cultivator who is not excited and proud of him, this high sense of identity makes it difficult for them to give birth to the rejection of Yuling.

And in late January, another big event happened in Hayu.

Lingyun Pavilion Pavilion Lord Gong Ningshui was assassinated in Honglian Prefecture, fortunately, thanks to his bodyguards desperately protecting him, although Gong Ningshui was seriously injured, but after all, his life was saved.

After the news spread, the major state capitals in Huayu were in an uproar, and the voices of dissatisfaction boiled.

The reason why the assassination of Gong Ningshui will have such a big impact is that on the one hand, it is because the Lingyun Pavilion has spread all over the Huayu in recent years, and all kinds of special commodities have greatly benefited cultivators of different levels, so it can be said that as long as he is a Huayu person, he must have bought the things of the Lingyun Pavilion.

On the other hand, Gong Ningshui's personal charm is also an important factor, for this beautiful pavilion master who is as beautiful as a fairy and has a demure temperament like a beautiful flower, many male cultivators, and even the head of a family can't help but fall in love, and now this kind of thing has happened, which simply detonates everyone's anger.

What's more, although the Lingyun Pavilion is essentially a subordinate institution of the Dao Ling Sect, the relationship is not as close as the Ling Sheng Hall and the Dark Pupil Hall after all, and for many people, the two are separated to a certain extent. Everyone could accept that the Seven Star Hall and other major forces were enemies of the Dao Ling Sect, but they couldn't tolerate that they would not let go of even a commercial organization like the Spirit Luck Pavilion, which was beyond the rules.

Yu Ling first sent a group of Phantom God masters to take the palace condensation back to the sect, and then ordered the Dark Pupil Hall to investigate the matter thoroughly. However, before Huang Santu could arrange it, the excited cultivators of Huayu had already spontaneously taken action and began to look for all kinds of clues.

But the development of things has become weird, according to all the clues collected, the sharp point turned out to be the Red Lotus Wan family.

Everyone couldn't help but be shocked, the Wan family was obviously the most solid ally of the Dao Ling Sect, how could they do such a heartbreaking thing?

Wan Jialuo, the head of the Wan family, hurriedly repaired a copy of the book and presented it to Dao Lingzong, his words were sincere and sincere, and he cried blood in every sentence, and almost listed all the doubts and evidence that he could think of, proving that the Wan family did not participate in the assassination.

However, at the critical moment, the Xia family stabbed them in the back, and Xia Zheng, the head of the Xia family, wrote a letter almost at the same time as Wan Jialuo, stating the suspicious actions of the Wan family in recent years, which means that the Wan family is likely to secretly collude with a big force in the fiefdom, and hopes that Dao Lingzong will treat it prudently.

So on January 30, Yu Ling took several high-level elders of the Daoling Sect and the bodyguards of the Tianzhong Pavilion to visit the Wan family in Honglian Prefecture in person, wanting to find out the truth.
