Chapter 22: Attacked

On the second night of coming to Canterlot, He Xuansheng also spent the same time in cultivation as before. Yun Ya's words last night deeply stimulated He Xuansheng. Yes, where are there any natural strong people in this world, all the great powers who create miracles are successful through their own efforts. And Luo Yangqin'er also said that as long as he can defeat the marriage partner at the age of twenty-four, they will be able to justifiably cancel the marriage. Thinking of this, He Xuansheng smiled unconsciously, and secretly thought in his heart: I must work hard to cultivate, I will definitely defeat him, no matter who it is!

In the blink of an eye, the ten meetings have reached their final day. In the past few days, the people who have attended the meeting have discussed a lot of things around the invasion of the demons, and have also made many relatively reasonable arrangements for the prevention of the demons in the next period of time.

Wen Yuelou sat on the main seat, his eyes swept over the people present, and then his spiritual power was released, and he said solemnly: "Not long ago, a hunting envoy brought us back a warning because of his stupid behavior, the general content is to prohibit the human hunting envoys from entering the major spirit beast forests to hunt spirit beasts again, otherwise all the consequences can only be borne by ourselves!"

As soon as Wen Yuelou's words came out, the faces of all the family heads and state managers sitting in the audience couldn't help but turn a little blue. Although Canterlot has long strictly forbidden the existence of the Hunting Mission, as the managers of one side, they do clearly know the difficulty and impossibility of completely exterminating the Hunting Mission, so they have also adopted a blind attitude towards some of the Hunting Mission's behaviors in their daily management.

"Dare to ask Your Excellency Wen, I don't know who issued the warning?" asked a state administrator in the audience cautiously.

Wen Yuelou raised her forehead slightly, sighed lightly and said, "Overlord of the Dry Heaven Forest, Black Horn Golden Dragon King, Emperor!"

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the people in the audience turned a little blue. The warning personally issued by the Overlord of the Qiantian Forest was enough to show that this incident was extraordinary.

Wen Yuelou snorted lightly and said solemnly: "Two hundred years ago, our Central City banned the existence of the Hunting Mission, it seems that you all regard this ban as the wind in your ears!"

"Elder Qi Wen, this matter is a dereliction of duty!" It was He Zhen, the head of the He family, who spoke, and at this time, He Zhuo clasped his hands into fists, knelt down on one knee and said sincerely, "Our He family is willing to be punished!"

Wen Yuelou looked at He Zhuo, and then at He Chenghong, who was silent, waved his right sleeve, and said after gently holding He Zhuo up: "Although it happened in the territory of your He family at this time, I can't put all the responsibility on you. Saying that, Wen Yuelou turned his gaze to all the participants sitting in the audience, and said in a serious tone, "From today onwards, the activities of the Hunting Mission will be strictly regulated in various places, if there is a similar incident next time, our Holy Palace will no longer have any mercy!"

"Alright, let's move on to the last thing of this meeting. Wen Yuelou paused and said, "In order to better resist the invasion of the demon clan, we plan to set up a brand new organization with young people over the age of eighteen as the main force, the Demon Slayer Team!"

As soon as these words came out, the audience immediately became a lot of discussions. With a wave of Wen Yuelou's right sleeve, the majestic spiritual power suddenly poured out, suppressing all the noise in an instant.

"All the younger generations who have reached the age of eighteen but are under the age of twenty-five can form their own team to participate in the assessment of the Demon Slayer Team, and once they pass the assessment, your team will be officially established. Although letting the younger generation come into contact with the demon clan so early will increase their danger, on the one hand, it can also temper the growth of the younger generation well, on the other hand, our holy palace will provide unimaginable resources to each demon slaying team, and the demon slaying team can also obtain corresponding combat merits by completing daily tasks, and a certain amount of combat merit can be exchanged for corresponding rewards in the holy palace. Therefore, I hope that everyone will organize a good team after they go back and contribute to the peace of the mainland!"

Then the meeting discussed many matters related to the demon slaying team, including management, task assignment, assessment and many other necessary matters, and by the time the meeting of the ten families was really over, it was already close to dusk.

Because of Yun Ya's words last night, He Xuansheng spent the third day of coming to Canterlot City completely in cultivation. When night fell and He Xuan and his party returned to their residence, He Xuansheng woke up from his cultivation.

"Xuansheng, come and see who this is!" He Zhuo pushed open He Xuansheng's door and said excitedly.

He Xuansheng looked at an old man with gray hair and a golden robe behind He Zhen, shook his head suspiciously, and said, "Old man, who are you?"

Listening to He Xuansheng's doubtful words, the old man shook his head helplessly, and said with disappointment and self-blame: "It's all my fault, I put all my body and mind into the peace of the mainland, but I neglected my most precious existence!"

"Father, it's not your fault!" He Zhuo hurriedly comforted on the side, "The world knows your hardship, you don't have to blame yourself!"

Listening to He Zhuo's shout of "father", He Xuansheng was stunned and said in surprise: "You, you are my grandfather?"

The white-haired old man who followed behind He Zhuo was none other than He Chenghong, the elder of the He family and one of the ten elders of the Holy Palace!

"Xuan Sheng, quickly apologize to Grandpa!" He Yan said sternly to He Xuansheng.

He Xuansheng hurriedly knelt on his knees, kowtowed heavily and said, "I'm sorry grandpa!"

He Chenghong hurriedly squatted down to help He Xuansheng up, gently hugged him into his arms, his eyes were slightly teary, and said softly: "Xuansheng, get up, you haven't seen me since you were born! ”

Looking at He Chenghong, who was gradually teary-eyed, He Xuansheng's eyes gradually moistened. In the past eight years, since He Xuansheng was conscious, there was no image of grandfather in his mind, and now in the face of the sudden grandfather, the young heart could not resist the power of his relatives after all, and he threw himself into He Chenghong's arms and cried bitterly.

And He Chenghong hugged the person in his arms tightly, as if he was afraid that he would run away, and said: "Xuan Sheng, it's grandpa who is sorry for you!"

It took more than ten minutes for the emotions of the three members of the He family to really ease up. He Chenghong sat on the sofa, tapped He Xuansheng's little head with his right index finger, and then said in surprise: "Xuan, Xuansheng, why can't I perceive your spiritual power?"

He Xuansheng was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly explained: "Oh, my master asked me to hide my spiritual power outside, so he taught me how to hide my spiritual power outside. ”

"Your master?" He Chenghong was stunned for a moment, then turned to He Zhuo and asked, "You found him a master?"

He Zhen scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "None of the masters of our He Family's Qianshi Hall are willing to teach Xuan Sheng, so his master was met by chance when he went to the market. ”

"What happened to you at the market?" He Chenghong was stunned and hurriedly asked, "What's his name?"

"Oh, he's here for the meeting this time, too. He Zhen explained, "It's the middle-aged man in a black robe sitting next to me, called Shangguan Wenxiu. ”

"Shangguan?" He Chenghong's eyelids jumped, and then he laughed twice with a little excitement, patted He Xuansheng's shoulder, and said happily, "Xuansheng, you have to study hard with this master in the future!"

"Grandpa, do you know my master?" He Xuansheng asked suspiciously.

He Chenghong shook his head and said, "I don't know if I know it, in short, what I know is that your master will never be an idle person." By the way, where is your spiritual power cultivation?"

"One heavy and two turns. He Xuansheng said embarrassedly, "I played a little crazy two days ago, and I didn't practice much. ”

As soon as these words came out, they immediately shocked He Zhuo and He Chenghong. He Chenghong grabbed He Xuansheng's shoulders and asked excitedly, "You, you have already broken through at the age of eight now?"

He Xuansheng nodded and looked at He Chenghong puzzled. He Zheng once wrote to He Chenghong about He Xuansheng's cultivation at the age of six, but he never expected that in just one year, his grandson would have broken through, which was also a unique situation in the history of the Aura Continent!

He Chenghong laughed heartily a few times, and with a flip of his right hand, a gorgeous golden egg appeared in He Chenghong's hand. "I heard your father say that you are now a spirit beast master, which is very good. Grandpa doesn't have anything to give you, this is the egg of a spirit beast I found when I entered a spirit beast forest twenty years ago. His mother died at the hands of a group of hunters, and I picked him up. For twenty years, I have been using my spiritual power to warm this egg, and now I will give it to you, you only need to use your spiritual power to keep warming it, according to my calculations, it will be able to hatch in about ten years. ”

He Xuansheng excitedly took the golden egg and asked expectantly, "Grandpa, what kind of spirit beast's egg is this?"

He Chenghong smiled lightly and said, "Let's wait for you to successfully breed this spirit beast by then, you always have to leave some surprises!"

He Xuansheng nodded solemnly and said, "Don't worry, grandpa, I will definitely hatch it!"

Tonight was He Xuansheng's latest sleep in the past eight years, because He Chenghong directly took him to the most lively night market in Central City to have fun, and then took him to his own residence in the Holy Palace to settle down. So when He Xuansheng returned to his original residence, it was already early in the morning of the next day.

The group of the He family spent the night taking care of their respective rituals, and they prepared to return to the He family around noon the next day. After He Xuansheng returned to his residence, he began his cultivation, and when he came to his senses from his cultivation, it was already time for them to prepare to return to the He family.

He Chenghong didn't go out of the city to see him off because there was still something going on in the Holy Palace, and the group of the He family embarked on the journey back to the He family alone.

He Xuansheng lay quietly by the window of the carriage, looking at the scenery along the road with his eyes alone. For some reason, Luoyang Qin'er's figure kept appearing in his mind, although he had been warning himself not to have too many illusions about her, but the more he was self-suggesting, the stronger his thoughts about her became.

"What's the matter, do you miss that girl from the Luoyang family?" Yun Ya looked at He Xuansheng with a melancholy face and said jokingly.

He Xuansheng turned his head and threw a roll of his eyes at Yun Ya and said, "I think what's wrong with her!" Then He Xuansheng's tone softened, and he asked softly, "Hey, do you think I can meet her in the future?"

Yun Ya smiled lightly and said, "Your He family and Luoyang family are both one of the ten, and there will definitely be many opportunities to meet in the future!"

Just thinking about it, He Xuansheng suddenly felt his heart twitch violently. He Xuansheng gently touched his chest, and instantly a panic welled up in his heart. What's wrong, why do you feel this way.......?

He Xuansheng hurriedly took out his communication device and quickly dialed a number stored on it. I only heard a familiar but somewhat frightened voice coming from the communicator - "Xuan Sheng, is it you, we have been attacked by the demons, help........"
