Chapter 5: The Four Great Families

As for tricks? For Sun Xiang, who has divine sense, vision and experience, those "Huashan Sword Techniques" and "Shaolin Boxing Techniques" that the secular world boasts about are all flaws full of loopholes. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info He just needs to have speed and strength, and speed and strength are all about the body, he just needs to be strong. With thousands of years of experience in cultivating immortals, he can completely be a late striker and have no tricks to win.

In the next few days, Sun Xiang was also gradually perfecting the cultivation method, deducing the most basic qi training method in the Shenzhou Continent into a special exercise that was more suitable for the rules of heaven and earth and could cleanse the body with the aura of heaven and earth, and gave it a new name called "Naqi Forging Body Technique".

Using this self-created "Naqi Forging Body Formula", Sun Xiang now has new meridians to open up every day. After the abundant spiritual energy nourishment here, the body has begun to become stronger, the body has less fat, more muscles, and the bones have gradually hardened, and the potential of the five internal organs is being stimulated. It has to be said that the age of fifteen is the time to grow the body. Although the wine has been hollowed out in the past, there is still time to remedy it.

After another two days of cultivation, Sun Xiang was ready to familiarize himself with this valley. In the past few days, he has to release his divine sense every day to scan the surrounding situation, and also intimidate the demonic beasts that try to enter here. So the valley is safe for the time being.

Despite this, Sun Xiang still didn't dare to leave this valley, so he could only wander around the valley.

Just like the situation of the demon beasts found on the first day, Sun Xiang found that the plants here also gave people a plausible feeling, Sun Xiang had already affirmed that he must have come to another world, and this was definitely not the Shenzhou Continent.

Sun Xiang secretly thought: Could it be that he was a person from another world in his "previous life"?

Now Sun Xiang has no time to dwell on his "past life", he is in a daze at a plant in front of him, this is a plant similar to the "Gu Pi Grass" in the Shenzhou Xiuzhen Realm, Gu Pi Cao is a kind of main medicine for refining the "Body Strengthening Pill".

It's a pity that herbs are a thing, and the difference is thousands of miles, which Sun Xiang understands. If he had the strength he had before the tribulation, ordinary poisons would not be able to harm his body, and he could determine the medicinal properties of this plant by tasting it with his mouth. But now he was just a mortal, and any one negligence could kill him.

"If only there were books on the medicinal properties of various plants, I don't know if there is a "Compendium of Materia Medica" in this world?" Sun Xiang smiled self-deprecatingly.

In the end, Sun Xiang still didn't take any risks, even if the medicinal herb was determined to be Gu Pi Grass, but now there was no Dan furnace in his hand, and there was no Dan Fire, so he couldn't refine the Dan medicine at all. Although he gave up, Sun Xiang's heart was on fire, and he found that this world was full of magic and challenges for him, and he liked this kind of challenge.

If it weren't for the memory of his "previous life" telling him that this was not the fairy world, he would even wonder if he had succeeded in ascending.

If a few days ago, Sun Xiang was still entangled in the tenth thunder tribulation, the "past life" and the "future life", at this moment, Sun Xiang was completely let go. He felt like a child who didn't know anything and was curious about the world. He suddenly felt his body relax, and it was not until this moment that Sun Xiang's soul and this body were completely fused. In addition to possessing a wealth of experience in cultivating truth and strong spiritual power, he had already turned into a complete fifteen-year-old teenager.

He spent half a day patrolling the surroundings, and found some plausible herbs, and found no danger that could threaten him. In the end, Sun Xiang checked the dry food in his hand again, it was enough to last for ten days, which made him feel very relieved, according to the current cultivation progress, he estimated that in another ten days or so, he should be able to recover to the point of confronting the weakest demon beasts nearby.

Near the valley, a monster beast similar to a wild boar had already entered his field of vision, and he was going to open the meat when the time came, and by the way, he would test the recovery of his strength.

********************************

Located in the eastern part of the continent, the Tetulai Empire has been established for nearly 700 years and is one of the most powerful countries on the continent.

The royal family of the empire was the Deco family.

Thousands of years ago, the entire continent was in the midst of war, and the ancestor of the Deco family, Deco Sr., was not only superior in his own strength, but also a man of great talent, and he gathered a group of loyal followers around him. These followers were all people of Wen Taowu, and with the help of these people, the old Deco finally conquered a country and established the Etulais Empire.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the old Deke Emperor rewarded meritorious deeds and made meritorious ministers, and some followers also established families with the permission of the old Deco Emperor. Up to now, there are four of the most influential super families in the Turret Empire, namely the Black family, the Fabre family, the John family and the Sun family.

The heads of the "Four Great Families" all hold important positions in the empire. Among them, the head of the Black family served as the prime minister, the head of the Sun family served as the minister of finance, and the heads of the Fabre and John families served as the general of Zhennan and Zhenxi respectively.

At this time, far away from the small valley where Sun Xiang lived, the capital of the Etullai Empire, the important place of the Prime Minister's Mansion, was in the study of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

An old man in his sixties with blond hair, blue eyes, and a hooked nose was sitting behind his desk, and although his breath was restrained, he gave people a sense of oppression, which was a kind of momentum naturally cultivated by those who had been in high positions for a long time.

He was Blake De, the prime minister of the Detulai Empire.

On the opposite side of the desk stood a young man of about twenty years old, also blonde, blue-eyed and hooked nose, a bit like an old man in the upper position. He is the grandson of Prime Minister Blake De, Blake Shaw. He likes to be called "Little Blake". At this moment, little Blake was nervously standing there with his hands bowed and his head bowed, and fine sweat was already appearing on the back of his neck.

If he had covered his face, he would have discovered that this Blake Shaw was the leader of the masked men in the valley who had besieged Sun Zhongkai.

Blake De tapped his fingers rhythmically against the armrest of his chair, and looked at little Blake below with disappointment in his eyes. But the tone of his voice was steady: "Xiao, my grandson, you have done a very stupid thing, and you have created more difficulties for your own trial. I won't give you more advice, this is not only an agreement of several families, but also an experience for you. ”

"The small city of Astor is not worth mentioning to the family, and the family is more concerned about your performance in this trial. It's a pity that you shouldn't besiege that kid from the Sun family, this has exceeded the bottom line. Fortunately, you can come to your senses and come back to me immediately, and show that you are not hopeless. If you don't come back and report back to me, you're really going to disappoint me. At this point, he paused and saw that Blake Shaw had come to his senses before continuing: "Hey, don't worry, a shitty waste, kill it, and leave the rest to me." Your mission is still the Astor City Trials, don't let me down again. ”

"Thank you grandpa, I know it's wrong. I'm going to arrange things for Astor City, and I won't let you down again. Goodbye," Little Blake secretly breathed a sigh of relief, saluted, and left the study.

When little Blake closed the door, an old man in black in his fifties appeared from the shadows and saluted Blake de respectfully: "Don't worry, sir, I know what to do." ”

"Go ahead, as long as the Sun family is not a lion, they will promise them that a waste is not worth a few dollars." Blake de said with his eyes closed.

The fact that Sun Zhongkai, the first gentleman in the capital, was besieged and killed by Little Blake already knew about it in the capital.

It's too difficult for a hairy boy about twenty years old to hide from those bigwigs in the capital. The reason why the news did not spread was that little Blake was scared afterwards, so he was so afraid that he ran home directly to report to his grandfather. Old Black also secretly sent the heads of several accomplices to the Sun family for the first time, temporarily calming the anger of the Sun family. The second is that this kind of despicable killing method has never appeared in the history of the competition between the four major families. The four major families are also afraid, and if this kind of thing is not handled well, it will set a precedent for the struggle between the children of the family in the future. This is not only not in the interests of the four major families, but also in the interests of the empire. If that were the case, the imperial royal family would intervene in the matter.

It has been more than 700 years since the founding of the empire. The four major families are fighting openly and secretly, but they all have their own bottom lines. Unless they are absolutely sure, they all know the truth of "cold lips and teeth", not to mention that there are too many unstable factors in this continent, and it is not limited to humans, so no one will be stupid enough to destroy the empire, a big tree that can let them enjoy the shade.

The younger generation of the four major families has grown up. Not counting the old guys who have stopped showing their heads, these younger generations are collectively referred to as the "third generation of disciples".

This time, the small city of Astor in the eastern part of the empire is about to come to the time of the general election, which is stipulated by imperial law. This kind of general election of the lord of the small city was not originally taken to heart by the four major families, but when the royal family proposed to use it as a place of trial for the third generation of disciples of the four major families, the situation changed.

The trial determined by the royal family was to win the general election and become the lord of Astor City by supporting the subordinate forces. This is a test for the new generation of the four major families by the royal family.
