The atmosphere in the chamber was somewhat oppressive.

Jiang Shang and the three of them stood in a row three meters away from Guo Haonan with their heads down, not daring to look up directly.

Guo Haonan's eyes focused on a few of them, and after staring at them for a few minutes, he slowly spoke: "Can any of you tell me, how did you provoke the Feiyun Sect?"

Jiang Shang and the two elders glanced at each other, and finally, he raised his head slightly, and said in a weak tone: "Elder Taishang, the mountain gate of the Feiyun Sect is thousands of kilometers away from our Xuanyang Sect, and there is usually no intersection at all, so we really didn't take the initiative to provoke them!"

Yi Mingyuan opened his mouth and added guessingly: "Could it be that some of our disciples accidentally collided with the Feiyun Sect when they went out?"

"Impossible!" Feng Wu, who was in charge of the disciple's exit review, shook his head resolutely at this time and said, "According to the rules of our Xuanyang Sect, any disciple in the sect needs to come to me to report when he goes out! As far as I know, no disciple has gone to the surrounding area where the Feiyun Sect is located recently. ”

Yi Mingyuan replied unconvinced: "It is also possible that someone from the Feiyun Sect came here and had some conflicts with the disciples in our sect. ”

Feng Wu raised his eyebrows slightly, but this time he didn't refute.

He thought for a while and said: "This is not impossible, some martial arts practitioners will inevitably be arrogant, and it is easy to have some small conflicts when they go out. ”

"But...... Even if our disciples had some skirmishes with the people of the Feiyun Sect, it wouldn't be enough for Hou Xing to come to the door with a group of masters from the Feiyun Sect, right?"

"Moreover, when I look at Hou Xing's appearance, it is obviously a deliberate provocation, where does it look like the junior who came to the door to ask for an explanation after a conflict?"

"What's more, I don't think that our Xuanyang Sect's disciples can bargain in the hands of the disciples of the Feiyun Sect. ”

"I have to recognize a practical problem, our two forces, whether it is the older generation or the younger generation, the gap is relatively large, and we are more than one step weaker. ”

Hearing Feng Wu's words, the atmosphere at the scene became even more depressing.

In particular, Elder Taishang's face suddenly became difficult to look at.

Syllable~

Guo Haonan slapped the table suddenly, glared at the three of them angrily and said, "Okay, don't analyze me here!"

"What a bunch of rubbish!"

"The Xuanyang Sect is in your hands, it is simply inferior to the previous generation! There are fewer and fewer masters in the sect, a few of you are not angry, and the disciples under your command are even more unhappy, and none of them are outstanding in cultivation. ”

"I really don't know, where have you practiced every day?!"

"If this continues, I'm afraid that by the day I'm gone, none of you will be able to give birth to a new grandmaster......

Elder Taishang is angry!

Listening to Guo Haonan's reprimand, Jiang Shang and the others lowered their heads and listened carefully, and their hearts were even more embarrassed.

Indeed, the Xuanyang faction is not as good as the next generation.

Especially in their generation, the overall strength has hit a new low.

Looking at Jiang Shang's embarrassed and ashamed appearance, Guo Haonan calmed down and sighed helplessly.

The former Xuanyang faction was too strong!

Now it has not fallen to such a point, which is really uncomfortable.

He was thinking, if he was gone, how long would such a Xuanyang Sect last?

Although it is a modern civilized society now, there is still a struggle between the sect forces, just like this time the Feiyun Sect deceived the door without warning.

When the Xuanyang Sect loses him, the master of the Grandmaster, I am afraid that those cats and dogs who have not paid attention to their eyesight in the past will dare to bully them.

As for the friction between the forces of the sect, as long as it does not affect ordinary people, the imperial court will not interfere.

Guo Haonan knew that according to the careful thinking of the imperial court, he wished that these sect forces would fight to the death, so that they could reap the benefits of the fisherman.

At this moment, Jiang Shang, who rarely spoke, suddenly spoke: "Elder Taishang, do you say that the Feiyun Sect saw that we were weak, so it had the intention of annexing?"

Guo Haonan shook his head, sighed and said, "That's it! No matter what Hou Xing's purpose is, since you don't know it, don't make useless speculations here." ”

"With this skill, it is better to send more intelligence agents to find out their true purpose for me. ”

"Yes, Elder Taishang, I'll arrange it right away. Jiang Shang lowered his head in response.

Originally, it was the Great Elder Deng Wenshi who was in charge of the Xuanyang Faction's intelligence department, but now that the Great Elder was out on a mission, it could only be arranged by him, the head of the sect.

Seeing that Jiang Shang didn't act immediately after finishing speaking, Guo Haonan suddenly scolded angrily: "What are you doing in a daze?

"Yes! ”

Jiang Shang responded with an aggrieved face, and quickly turned around and left.

Seeing this, Yi Mingyuan and Feng Wu glanced at each other, and asked cautiously, "Elder Taishang, then ...... of us?"

"Alright, you guys get out too!" Guo Haonan waved his hand impatiently.

It can be seen that he is still angry in his heart.

After all, as an old-school master who has survived for nearly two hundred years, how can he not be angry when he loses to a young man who is only thirty-four years old?

Today's encounter gave him a feeling that trying to live for so long was equivalent to living in vain.

……

At the foot of the mountain.

After passing through the cliff and borrowing strength frequently, Hou Xingyi and the others landed safely, looked back at the location of the Xuanyang Sect Mountain Gate, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly, revealing a wicked smile.

It's just an old antique, and he still wants to compete with me!

Hou Xing is very confident in his own strength.

Not to mention this old antique of the Xuanyang Sect, even in their Feiyun Sect, among the several grandmaster-level masters, none of them were his opponents.

As a younger generation, he has come from behind, and his strength is comparable to that of the older generation, or even stronger.

Although his strength is enough to be proud, Hou Xing also knows very well in his heart how he has this achievement.

Liu Haoyu's predecessor, that is a benefactor he will never forget in his life.

Hou Xing was stunned, and suddenly heard a complaint from beside him: "Master, we are coming down too fast, right?"

"That's it, you did a lot of work with that Guo Haonan, but why can't we run for nothing?"

……

The elder's complaint attracted the condemnation of Hou Xing from others.

Only the old man with the white beard remained calm and silent, and did not follow in.

"Ahem!"

Hou Xing cleared his throat and hurriedly comforted: "Don't worry, everyone, this matter is not over yet!"

"Huh?!, not over yet?"

"It's definitely not over!" Hou Xing continued as a matter of course, and then said, "Let's go, let's go to another place!"
