As the only martial arts family in Zhulin Town, the Long family occupies a small half of Zhulin Town just by various mansions.

A few dozen meters behind the gate of the main house of the Long family is a clan hall with blue bricks and green tiles, which is used for deliberations and entertaining guests.

In the usually quiet clan hall, there were already seven figures sitting on the seats, six of which were gray-haired old men, and the remaining one was a sturdy middle-aged man with short beards, sitting on a Taishi chair in the center.

The six old men in the hall exchanged their heads and ears, and the discussion kept talking, and the content of the discussion was all related to Long Zun.

"Huidong, come in. As one of the old men said this outside the hall, the eyes of the remaining people in the hall all turned to the direction of the main entrance of the hall.

After a while, I saw a middle-aged man walking slowly from the door with steady steps.

If Long Zun saw the middle-aged man who had just walked into the hall, he would definitely recognize this person as the uncle Dong who had left his small courtyard earlier.

"Huidong, have you asked clearly? What is the situation? Long Zun really used a month to cultivate Xuan Quan and defeated two disciples of the Long Family of the Martial Disciple Realm?" Long Xingguan, the head of the Long family who was sitting in the middle, asked eagerly as soon as Long Huidong entered the door.

The rest of the clan elders in the hall also turned their eyes to Long Huidong.

Long Huidong didn't immediately answer the patriarch's question, bowed down and saluted, and then said, "I have checked, and there is not the slightest mystic power in his body at all. ”

As soon as the words fell, a red-faced old man sitting near the door immediately answered: "I'll just say, how can a waste who can't cultivate hurt the juniors who have cultivated the mystical power of my vein, it must be those ignorant boys who take the opportunity to slander my vein." ”

"Long Yaowu and Long Yaohui brothers were indeed injured by Long Zun, and more than once, Long Yaowu and Long Yaohui brothers were injured by him once a month ago. Long Huidong turned to look at the red-faced old man and said.

Hearing that the person was really injured by Long Zun, the face of the red-faced clan elder turned even redder with shame, and slapped the table, "These two useless things can't even beat the waste of the Long family, you must practice them well in the future, and save me a shame for this vein." ”

Hearing the red-faced clan elder scolding his family's waste, the patriarch Long Xingguan, who was sitting in the center, frowned dissatisfiedly, and the red-faced clan elder who had been observing his words and expressions noticed it, and immediately shut up and sat down.

Patriarch Long Xingguan turned to look at Long Huidong and asked, "An ordinary person should not be able to defeat a cultivator who has cultivated Xuan power, what is going on, you explain it carefully." ”

"Yes. Long Huidong nodded and said: "It's true that Long Zun doesn't have Xuan power, but the qi and blood in his body are stronger than ordinary people, and his strength is far beyond ordinary people, I think this is the reason why Long Zun was able to defeat Long Yaowu and his brothers." ”

Long Huidong couldn't have imagined that as soon as he entered Long Zun's dantian, he was torn into several parts by the two air masses, one green and one red, which caused him to not detect the Xuan power in Long Zun's body at all.

"According to what you mean, it means that Long Zun used some kind of secret method to stimulate his potential in order to injure Long Yaowu and Long Yaohui and their brothers. Patriarch Long Xingguan asked in a deep voice.

"Yes, as far as I know, only some secret methods can improve the strength of an ordinary person in a short period of time. Long Huidong replied.

At this moment, the red-faced clan elder suddenly stood up from his seat, and spat flew sideways: "Severe punishment, must be severely punished, I propose, for this kind of Long Zun who secretly cultivates secret methods and injures the children of the Long family, he will be directly expelled from the Long family." ”

Hearing the words of the red-faced clan elder to severely punish Long Zun, several clan elders on the seat frowned, and one of them said hesitantly: "This kind of punishment is too severe, I think it's better to warn it." ”

"No, I can't. The red-faced clan elder immediately refused, "In order to prevent this kind of thing from happening in the future, we must set an example and punish it severely." ”

The clan elder who spoke to Long Zun before still said: "Expelling the Long family is still too harsh, after all, it is a child, and I think there must be some reason for him to hurt people." ”

The red-faced clan elder looked up with a red face and retorted: "It's not the person who injured you, you don't have back pain when you stand and talk, I ask the patriarch to punish Long Zun severely." ”

With that, he turned his head to look at the patriarch Long Xingguan sitting in the center, hoping that the other party could support him.

Long Xingguan rubbed his temples on both sides with his hands, understanding that he still had to make his own decision on this matter.

He pondered for a while, seemed to pay attention, and said: "I announce that I will cancel the status of the direct disciple of the Long Zun Long family and reduce him to an ordinary disciple, as for the injury of Long Yaowu and Long Yaohui, let him take out a century-old elixir as compensation!"

In the face of the patriarch Long Xingguan's final word, some clan elders felt that this punishment was too severe for Long Zun, but if they wanted to speak out, not only offended the red-faced clan elders, but also offended the patriarch Long Xingguan, so they acquiesced, and no one was refutating.

As for the red-faced clan elder, he hadn't thought about expelling Long Zun from the Long family before, what he said before was so harsh, it was just a means to ask for a sky-high price, and he was already satisfied with getting an elixir that was more than a hundred years old, and sat back in his seat quietly.

Long Huidong, who was standing in the hall, glanced at the patriarch who made what seemed to be a fair punishment, and then looked at the other clan elders who had nothing to do with him, and the red-faced clan elders who were happy to receive the benefits, and felt that he had harmed Long Zun.

At the same time, he felt cold in his heart about the Long family's approach, and secretly decided that as soon as this matter was over, he would leave the Long family and travel outside, without looking at the ugly faces of these people in front of him.

In the evening, as the sun set, Long Zun sat cross-legged on the wooden bed in the room, running the Dao Yan Jue Exercises over and over again, absorbing the aura of heaven and earth, and transforming it into the mysterious power in his body.

During the cultivation process, he heard someone walking in the direction of the house, exhaled a light breath, stopped his exercises, and raised his eyes to look at the door of the house.

Not long after, the door was opened from the outside, and a middle-aged man walked in from outside.

Seeing the appearance of the middle-aged man clearly, Long Zun hurriedly got off the bed and said, "Uncle Dong, is there something wrong with coming over so late?"

Long Huidong stood in front of the door, his cold face that had not changed for thousands of years squeezed out a touch of tenderness when he saw Long Zun, and at the same time revealed a look of guilt in his eyes.

Looking at Long Huidong, who was standing at the door without saying a word for a long time, Long Zun looked dazed, not knowing what was going on.

After a while, Long Huidong sighed, took out something from his arms, and said, "Uncle Dong, I'm sorry for you, this is a century-old elixir that Uncle Dong has treasured for many years, and it can be regarded as Uncle Dong's compensation for you." ”

After speaking, he forced the things in his hand into Long Zun's hand, turned his head and left directly, leaving Long Zun alone to scratch his forehead with his hands.
