The next day, the weather was clear and cloudless.

On Lingyuan Mountain, many sects gathered together to watch the succession ceremony of the new head of Lingyuan Gate. Zhang Shuntian wore the clothes of the head of the house, stood solemnly on the big platform, and after a lot of etiquette, Zhang Shuntian successfully became the new head of Lingyuanmen.

The current ancient martial arts world is similar to the business world, and the heads of each sect want to communicate and promote the development of each sect, so after the succession ceremony, it is a three-day reception of VIPs.

This will be held in the Lingyuan Gate for three days of celebration ceremony, with this, the heads of each sect will bring their disciples to participate, first, to congratulate, and second, to discuss the future development direction of the ancient martial arts world.

Zhang Shuntian has been very busy these days, Liu Chen and Li Qingwan almost can't see him, he is wearing the clothes of the head of the family, and has been entertaining the head elders from various sects in the front hall.

Li Qingwan was bored, wandering around the garden by herself, and happened to meet Liu Chen. The two of them were somewhat embarrassed to meet, Li Qingwan originally wanted to bypass it, but Liu Chen blocked her way.

"I just have something to say to you. Liu Chen said.

"What's the matter?"

"Zhang Shuntian has become the head of the Lingyuan Sect, does he plan to marry you?" Liu Chen asked directly, Li Qingwan was stunned for a moment, and squeezed out a trace of an embarrassed smile: "This, it seems that it doesn't care about your business, right,,,?"

"Of course, I'm just asking casually, how to say, we are also friends, he is no longer the original Shuntian brother, he has a heavy burden, I think, you probably heard about the words that came out of the drinking party yesterday, right?"

Liu Chen asked deliberately, he wanted to see how Li Qingwan reacted. Yesterday, at the cocktail party, the head of another faction proposed to marry his daughter to Zhang Shuntian, in order to make the two factions become good for Qin and Jin. However, he was rejected by Zhang Shuntian on the spot.

Afterwards, Elder Lingyuan reprimanded Zhang Shuntian, saying that he didn't give face to the head of the family, he only represented himself before, and he could act arbitrarily according to his own will, but now, he represents the entire Lingyuan Sect, if he offends other sects, it will only make people feel that their Lingyuan Sect is just arrogant, and there is no one in their eyes.

Li Qingwan said: "What if you know?"

Liu Chen said: "Zhang Shuntian was reprimanded for just refusing a marriage, he can refuse this time, it doesn't mean that he can refuse a second time, if you still want to marry him, you must be mentally prepared." ”

Of course, Li Qingwan understands that as the instructor of the Dragon Group, if she wants to win over Zhang Shuntian, she must marry him, but Lingyuanmen also has her own considerations, and it is much more cost-effective to marry the daughters of other heads than to marry her Li Qingwan.

Li Qingwan didn't know how Zhang Shuntian would choose, so she was sullen.

In fact, starting from feelings alone, Li Qingwan never wanted to marry Zhang Shuntian, no matter how good Zhang Shuntian is, if she doesn't love him, it's for nothing. Liu Chen said: "You should have your own plans. ”

|“ What can I do, I can't help myself. ”

"I don't believe it. ”

Li Qingwan glanced at Liu Chen and smiled: "That's because you don't belong to anyone, you don't have to pay attention to it, just be yourself." ”

"Isn't this bad? Free, everything is up to you, how good!" Liu Chen wanted to ask Li Qingwan to break away from the dragon group, but it was not easy to say.

The two walked around the garden for a while, chatting casually, and talking about yesterday's succession ceremony, Li Qingwan said: "Situ Wuqiong is finally dead, you can rest assured." ”

"But I always felt that something wasn't quite right. Liu Chen was a little worried.

"What?"

Thinking of yesterday's succession ceremony, Situ Wuqiong was pulled up to execute the death penalty, at that time, several disciples dragged him up, his expression was flustered, and the whole person became crazy.

Because the guests were far away from the stage, they couldn't see Situ Wuqiong's expression clearly, and his hair was unkempt, almost covering half of his face. Liu Chen said: "Situ Wuqiong was abandoned by me, even so, his years of martial arts practice have also made him tough, even in the face of death, he will not be like a coward, but yesterday ......"

Li Qingwan remembered a detail, when he executed Situ Wuqiong, he collapsed to the ground in fright, almost unable to move, trembling all over, this is not the temperament that a person who practices martial arts should have!

Even if Situ Wuqiong is treacherous, his kung fu is not weak, and he is not afraid of death, how could he be like that?

Li Qingwan said: "Could it be that Situ Wuqiong didn't die?

Liu Chen nodded: "There is a possibility." However, who is behind all this? Could it be that the custody of the Lingyuan Gate is so unfavorable?"

"When he caught Situ Wuqiong that day, Zhang Shuntian was about to kill him, but it was Elder Lingyuan who stopped him, saying that he would carry out the succession ceremony and use Situ's blood to pay tribute to the dead head, could it be him?"

Liu Chen shook his head, not sure, maybe it was, maybe not. There is nothing wrong with the head of Lingyuan doing this, killing Situ Wuqiong in front of various sects, first, he can avenge the head of the sect, and second, he can establish prestige in front of all sects, saying that our Lingyuan Sect is decent and will never be with villains.

Therefore, Elder Lingyuan's approach to Liu Chen was understandable, but it was a bit too arbitrary to say that this was definitely not his doing.

Liu Chen didn't understand a little, Situ Wuqiong had already abolished his kung fu, and now that he has no skills at all, who will save him, is Situ Wuqiong still useful?

Thinking of this, Liu Chen suddenly thought of a possibility, and turned to Li Qingwan and said, "I thought of it, maybe ......"

"What?" Li Qingwan didn't quite understand, is such Situ Wuqiong still worth being saved by others?

Liu Chen said: "Although Situ Wuqiong has no kung fu, his value is greater, because in this way, he is better controlled by others and has to be obedient." ”

"You mean......" Li Qingwan's eyes widened, she seemed to understand something.

Liu Chen said: "If someone wants to save Situ Wuqiong, there is only one possibility, and that is - Martial Arts Holy Land!"

Those who have been to the Holy Land of Martial Arts, well, there are only a few people, the secrets of that place will not be easily decided, and there are too many people in the world who want to find the Holy Land of Martial Arts, who can they use? Liu Chen? Zhang Shuntian? Obviously, it is impossible, only this scheming Situ Wuqiong can be used.

In addition, he is suffering now, if someone proposes an exchange condition, on the condition that he leads them to the Holy Land of Martial Arts, Situ Wuqiong will definitely agree to it in order to save his life, this is his value.
