"Hmm, Qingyuan Daoyou?"

In the densely populated and noisy internal affairs hall, Zhang Qingyuan was queuing up to watch the lines of handwriting on the light curtain in front of him, preparing to find out the Dan Fang of the Deci Water Pill for exchange.

Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind him.

Turn your head to look.

I saw Shen Hongzhou and a few companions talking and laughing around him, not far behind him.

"It turned out to be Senior Brother Shen, I haven't seen you for a long time. ”

Zhang Qingyuan bowed and said with a polite smile on his face.

Shen Hongzhou is one of Zhang Qingyuan's few friends in the Yunshui Sect.

When he was in the 17th Courtyard, Zhang Qingyuan once challenged him in a ranking and defeated and replaced the opponent's top 10 position.

But later, it can be regarded as not knowing each other.

After entering the inner gate, several people also met once or twice under the leadership of Zhao Yuanyang.

It's an average friend.

Shen Hongzhou is a few years older than Zhang Qingyuan, and Zhang Qingyuan has always called him Senior Brother Shen.

"I can't afford the word senior brother, the inner door of Yunshui Sect respects strength, and the foolish brother is just a few years old, which makes Zhang Daoyou laugh. ”

Shen Hongzhou touched his nose with a wry smile on his face.

Zhang Qingyuan called him a senior brother, but he didn't beat the snake with a stick, and really regarded Zhang Qingyuan as a junior brother.

It's one thing to be humble, but it's another thing if you're serious.

Although he started earlier and is older.

But this world of cultivation is based on strength after all.

"I haven't seen you for a year, congratulations on your strength has improved a big step, in comparison, I, an unsuccessful guy, have instead fallen into the prestige of our Seventeen Courtyards. ”

Looking at Zhang Qingyuan in front of him, sensing the strong and terrifying danger that the other party had unintentionally exuded from him through the family secret technique, Shen Hongzhou couldn't help but show a wry smile again.

How long has it been?

Another big step forward!

It became even more terrifying than the last time they met, and even so big that Shen Hongzhou couldn't see the gap between each other!

Terrible!

Is this genius?!

Shen Hongzhou sighed in his heart.

Originally, in the past year, I have been stimulated to practice hard, and I have made good progress, and I am confident that I will be able to gradually catch up with the other party, and even surpass it in the end.

But now it seems.

My self-confidence is nothing but a joke.

"Where, where, senior brother praised it. ”

Zhang Qingyuan's face was indifferent, without the slightest smug look.

He is not a young boy on the surface.

In the face of other people's praise, Zhang Qingyuan may be useful in his heart, but he is more calm, and he will not show anything because of one or two words of praise from others.

And all that.

was all seen by Shen Hongzhou, and his evaluation of Zhang Qingyuan in his heart also went to a higher level.

He is not shocked by the humiliation, and his heart is resolute and mature.

No wonder he was able to endure that boring practice, no wonder he was extremely valued by Liu Zhangyuan when he was in the outer gate, and even faintly above Wang Weifeng, who ranked first in the Seventeen Courtyards that year.

Promising!

In an instant, such a word flashed through Shen Hongzhou's mind.

Shen Hongzhou's inner thoughts, Zhang Qingyuan naturally had no way of knowing, in such a noisy place, plus each had their own affairs, now it was just a chance to meet each other to say hello.

So the two only talked for a while, and then they each said goodbye and left.

But before leaving, Shen Hongzhou told Zhang Qingyuan one thing.

"After taking our session, Liu Zhangyuan resigned from the position of the head of the Seventeenth Courtyard and began to retreat, and now it has been almost two years, not long ago, I got the news that Liu Zhangyuan is about to break through the barrier, so I plan to tell you, do you want to visit the Zhangyuan when you see it, and by the way, thank him for his many years of teaching us. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Qingyuan nodded in agreement.

There is nothing wrong with this.

When he was in the outer gate, Liu Zhangyuan did give him a lot of help, so he should go to visit.

However, the date of Liu Zhangyuan's exit has not yet been decided, and Shen Hongzhou said that he will contact Zhao Yuanyang and Wang Weifeng, and then the four of them will discuss together to find a time to visit.

But there's no urgency.

There is still a period of time before Liu Zhangyuan is released, maybe a few months, maybe a year.

The timing is uncertain.

Shen Hongzhou just said things for the time being.

The matter was decided, and the two said goodbye and separated.

Zhang Qingyuan squeezed into the crowd and exchanged the Dan Fang of the Deci Water Pill with the deacon of the Internal Affairs Hall.

And Shen Hongzhou returned to his original friends.

"Shen Daoyou, who was that one just now?"

Someone asked aloud.

Everyone looked at each other, and they were also a little curious.

"He's a genius who once entered the inner gate in the same courtyard as me!"

looked at the back of Zhang Qingyuan leaving.

Shen Hongzhou spoke.

There are some mixed tastes in my heart.

"When the outer gate was in the middle of the competition, that guy was in the middle of the eightfold realm, but his strength was already in the eightfold realm, and almost no one could compete with him, mastering several martial arts that were successful and even consummating, and he was a genius who comprehended the artistic conception. ”

"After more than a year, it is now inferior to the realm of the middle of the Ninefold Period"

Shen Hongzhou explained briefly, which amazed everyone around.

This kind of strength can indeed serve as a genius.

It's just that what they don't know is that Zhang Qingyuan is more powerful than they think.

Shen Hongzhou did not elaborate either.

At this moment, there was something bad in his heart.

Three years and earlier, when he was in the outer gate, Zhang Qingyuan at that time was just an inconspicuous outer disciple.

He didn't even bother to look at it, let alone remember the name.

There are seventy or eighty people in the seventeen annexes, and a lot of blood is replaced every three years.

Come and go.

As a first-class genius at the top, who would have the heart to pay attention to the wide range of ordinary low-level monks in the same sect?

The levels are different and there is no need.

But nowadays.

It's just a few years of hard work, and the status between them has been completely reversed.

When did that one begin to shine with his own light and let himself begin to remember that name?

Shen Hongzhou was a little stunned.

It seems to be a challenge from the same door called Yao Ping after breaking through the sevenfold.

After that battle that shocked almost half of the Seventeen Courtyards.

And then it went all the way by leaps and bounds.

No one can stop it.

Then he defeated himself, entered the top ten, and then bloomed on the outer gate competition with a strength that shocked almost all the disciples in the Seventeen Courtyards, invincible in the eightfold realm, and defeated the early stage of the ninefold challenge by leapfrogging.

Until now, I have left myself far behind!

Looking at Zhang Qingyuan's departing figure,

Time

Shen Hongzhou's heart was filled with an indescribable feeling.

ps: It's two shifts today, and three shifts tomorrow.
