Xuanji and Xuanqing, father and son, waited for a long time at the exit of the Qingling Forest, but they didn't see any spirit body appear, let alone the body of the Heavenly Spirit.

Xuanji once again used his divine sense to envelop the entire Qingling Forest to search, but there was still no trace of any spirit.

Since many years ago, the spirit body in the Qingling Forest has been extinct, and the monks of the human race come to the Qingling Forest to practice, but they are only to collect some useful elixir, or hunt some low-level demon beasts and the like, and the spirit body has long been gone.

This is also the fundamental reason why the few people who came with Xuan Qing didn't know the body of the Heavenly Spirit at all.

"Father, it's been so many days, could it be that they have already left?"

Xuan Qing couldn't help but think of the two girls who had left the Qingling Forest before.

Xuanji may have thought of this as well, but he didn't think that the Heavenly Spirit Body was disguised as a Terran girl, because he knew that the Terran monks did not recognize the spirit body by their appearance, but by the breath of the spirit body!

Although the breath of the Heavenly Spirit Body is more difficult to identify than ordinary spirit bodies, it is impossible to hide from a veteran who used to capture spirit bodies like Xuanji!

The reason why Xuanji thought of the two girls who left the Qingling Forest before was not that they were disguised by the Heavenly Spirit Body, but that he thought of another possibility!

When I first saw those two girls, it seemed that there was a girl who had just advanced, right......

If the energy of the Heavenly Spirit Body is sucked away, the person who absorbs her energy will only cultivate and increase, and will not have the breath of the Heavenly Spirit Body just because of absorbing the energy of the Heavenly Spirit Body!

Therefore, if those two girls were coincidental in the Qingling Forest, maybe it was really possible for those two girls to absorb the energy of those two heavenly spirit bodies!

Thinking of this, Xuanji suddenly became anxious.

He has waited for so many days, can he let others cut off their beards?

Xuanji is naturally unwilling to do so!

"Let's go, go back to the city!"

After Xuanji and Xuanqing father and son returned to Qingling City, they found that the atmosphere in Qingling City was not quite right, those people who usually avoided their Xuan family people, today for some reason, suddenly became bold, those people not only dared to boldly look directly at them, but even a few actually dared to spit on their father and son!

In normal times, this is simply a big rebellion!

Xuanji frowned, Xuanji was young and young, and he didn't understand the reason for the change in the attitude of these people, so he only cared about getting angry, while Xuanji had experienced a lot of things, and he naturally saw a lot of people who praised and stepped on low.

The attitude of these people in Qingling City suddenly changed drastically, and there must be a reason for this.

Could it be that something is going on in the family in the city?

However, there are not a few masters left behind in the family, if you want to deal with the Xuan family, unless all the families in Qingling City are united, there is this possibility!

And if you want to unite all the families in Qingling City except for the Xuan family, it is simply an impossible thing to do!

In Qingling City, there is simply no one person, or any family, who has such great ability to unite all the families, including the Xuan family, can't do it!

However, what if the other party is not from Qingling City?

Thinking of this possibility, Xuanji couldn't calm down anymore, and walked quickly towards Xuan's house.

The Xuan family, which was lively in the past, is now closed, and the silence is terrifying.

Xuan Qing couldn't hold his breath and wanted to call the door, but was stopped by Xuanji.

Xuanji took Xuanqing to a secret door, where there was an escape route specially set up for the convenience of emergencies, and few people knew about it.

After the father and son entered the Xuan family, they went to the conference hall, if something really happened to the Xuan family, they would definitely discuss countermeasures in the conference hall at this time.

It was quiet all the way, and there was not a single figure to be seen walking except for their father and son.

When I got to the council chamber, it was really lively.

Unlike the dim and unlit places in other places, the council hall was brightly lit, and it seemed that all the fluorescent stones illuminated in other parts of the Xuan family had been moved here.

Xuanji stood in the corner of the darkness, he wanted to hear first, what was going on!

However, to Xuanji's surprise, it was not anyone from the Xuan family who spoke, but a person he didn't expect.

In the conference hall, all the people of the Xuan family were bloodless and gray, and sitting on the main seat was Lu Dingbang, the head of the Lu family, Lu Dingbang comfortably took the spiritual tea and tasted it slowly, with a proud spring breeze on his face.

"Well, the spiritual tea of the Xuan family is not ordinary, this fragrance is really amazing, a mouthful of spiritual tea into the intestines, I feel that the spiritual power has improved a lot!

A person from the Xuan family who didn't seem to have a low status flashed with anger on his face, but he didn't dare to refute it, but explained in a low voice: "As long as the head of the family has this spiritual tea, and the quantity is not much, at most it is not more than a catty." ”

Lu Dingbang put the teacup on the table heavily, and laughed coldly: "What? I take a fancy to your Xuan family's spiritual tea, that is to look up to you, don't be embarrassed, you don't want to think about what the current situation of the Xuan family is! The phoenix with falling hair is not as good as a chicken, if it weren't for our Lu family taking care of you, do you think your Xuan family can still live such a comforting life now?"

The people of the Xuan family all looked lonely, but no one refuted Lu Dingbang's words.

Xuan Qing knows Lu Dingbang, he is the head of the Lu family, Lu Yanran's father, because of Lu Yanran's relationship, he has met him a few times, every time he sees Xuan Qing, Lu Dingbang looks like he is honored, and he is a little better than his own daughter.

And at this time, seeing Lu Dingbang, who nods and stammers when he sees him on weekdays, is now taking advantage of the absence of their father and son to act as a prestige in the Xuan family, the anger in Xuan Qing's heart is about to gush out.

"Why does the head of the Lu family have time to come to my Xuan family today to show his prestige?"

Xuan Qing sneered and walked out, looking at Lu Dingbang and questioning.

Lu Dingbang looked at Xuan Qing with a light smile.

"Yo, it's a young man, you can be regarded as back, but you don't seem to be very happy, is this trip not smooth enough?"

Xuan Qing said lightly: "This doesn't bother the Lu family master, you don't have to worry about it!"

Lu Dingbang was treated so coldly by Xuan Qing, he didn't have an angry expression at all, it was hard to believe that this was Lu Dingbang who was angry just now because of a little spiritual tea.

Xuan Qing was a little proud, it seems that Lu Dingbang is still afraid of himself!

"The head of the Lu family doesn't guard his own house well, why did he come to my Xuan family to be powerful?"

Xuan Qing said without showing mercy to Lu Dingbang.

Lu Dingbang smiled: "It's not that the young man and the head of the Xuan family are not at home, I am worried that the Xuan family will be remembered by the younger generation, so I came to sit down, but now that the young man is back, of course, I don't need this old thing to do more." ”

Xuan Qing looked at Lu Dingbang steadily, did not refute Lu Dingbang's words, and acquiesced in the fact that he didn't need to do anything more.

In his opinion, even if he and his father are not at home, Lu Dingbang's coming to the Xuan family is also a matter of adding to the problem.

Lu Dingbang sneered, then stood up and said with a little loneliness: "Okay, since the young man is back, then I will leave!"

Several people from the Xuan family wanted to step forward to stop them, but Xuan Qing took the lead and said, "Then send off the Lu family master!"

Lu Dingbang didn't speak, just looked at Xuan Qing, showed a meaningful smile, and then laughed out loud and walked away.

After Lu Dingbang left, several high-ranking members of the Xuan family couldn't help but show complaining eyes at Xuan Qing.

"Xuanqing, you're too impulsive!"

"Yes, now that I have offended Lu Dingbang, if there is really something in the future, it will be difficult to ask him for help again!"

Immediately afterward, there was a continuous sigh.

Xuan Qing was a little displeased, but he just drove away a Lu Dingbang, why did these people mean as if they had done something rebellious?

He said proudly: "Our Xuan family is the largest family in Qingling City, what is his Lu family? It's just a dog following my Xuan family, when does our Xuan family still need to please him Lu Dingbang's help?"

As soon as Xuan Qing's words fell, he found that there was something wrong with the atmosphere in the conference hall.

The people of the Xuan family in the council hall all looked gray one by one, without the slightest blood, and looked at Xuan Qing's eyes, and they were also a little evasive.

"You guys, what's going on with you? Could it be that my dignified Xuan family really needs someone like Lu Dingbang to help?"

No one answered Xuan Qing's words.

But in fact, everyone's silence can be regarded as an indirect acquiescence to Xuan Qing's words.

It's just that Xuan Qing doesn't think about it at all!

In his heart, the Lu family needed to rely on the Xuan family to have a place in Qingling City, and now someone suddenly told him that the Xuan family needed to rely on the Lu family, how could Xuan Qing believe this?

At this moment, Xuanji suddenly walked in.

"Qing'er, you're too reckless!"

The first thing Xuan Ji did when he walked into the council hall was to criticize Xuan Qing.

Xuan Qing was not convinced: "Father, you also saw just now, the Lu family is just attached to our Xuan family and has a foothold in Qingling City, but he Lu Dingbang actually dares to be so presumptuous in our Xuan family, and his son pushes him away, shouldn't he?"

Xuan Ji did not answer Xuan Qing's words, but looked at the other Xuan family people in the council room, and he looked at them one by one, looking very seriously.

The more he looked at it, the more ugly Xuanji's face became, and in the end, his face was even faintly pale.

"W-What the hell is going on? Why are you all ......?"

"Patriarch, we don't know what's going on, it seems that overnight, it has become like this, not only us, all the people of the Xuan family, except for you and Xuan Qing, everyone has become like this!"

Xuan Qing didn't understand what they were talking about, he asked, "Father, what are you talking about, what are you talking about, apart from me and you, what happened to everyone in the family?"

Xuanji sat down in his chair and didn't say a word for a long time.

He finally understood why those people in Qingling City had such an attitude after seeing him.

"These days, thanks to Lu Dingbang sitting here, the other families in the city don't dare to act rashly, otherwise, our Xuan family may no longer exist now. ”

"How is that possible?"

Xuan Qing didn't want to believe that this was true!

"But that's the case! Although Lu Dingbang will have some unreasonable demands, judging from his willingness to help our Xuan family, he is okay!"

Xuan Qing looked at Xuanji, if this is the case, then he treated Lu Dingbang like that, it was indeed a bit excessive!

However, what happened to the Xuan family?

"Our Xuan family, what happened, how could we need Lu Dingbang to come here?"

"There are hundreds of people in the Xuan family, and now that the head of the family is out of the family and you, there is no one who has cultivation anymore, and overnight, all the cultivation of everyone in the Xuan family has been abolished, and it has been abolished silently. ”

Xuan Qing was shocked.

How could such a miracle happen in this world? Even a monk in the Mahayana period could not have quietly abolished the cultivation of 100 people overnight without harming a single person, right?

Xuanji sighed lightly and said, "The reason why those families in the city don't dare to act rashly is not because Lu Dingbang is sitting here, but because they don't know how Qing'er and I are doing now, so they will temporarily forbear." Now that Qing'er and I are back, I think those families will soon make a move. ”

Xuanji saw it very thoroughly, and Lu Dingbang probably knew this, so when he saw Xuanqing coming back, he didn't mention the matter of him sitting in charge of the Xuan family at all, but directly chose to quit the Xuan family.

On the other hand, didn't the Lu family have any idea of replacing the Xuan family?

I'm afraid it's not necessarily, right?

Is Lu Dingbang really so kind and willing to protect the Xuan family?

Xuanji thought, if he was Lu Dingbang, what would he do?

Maybe he also wants to take the resources of the Xuan family for his own use!

These, how could these old patriarchs and elders of the Xuan family not know?

It's just that even if they knew, they could only pray that Lu Dingbang would stay in the Xuan family until the Xuanji father and son came back, even if Lu Dingbang took the opportunity to make some unreasonable demands, they could only grit their teeth and admit it!

The biggest reason for this is that after these people in the Xuan family have no cultivation, they are very frightened in their hearts, if someone takes advantage of the dark night to come to the Xuan family to commit robbery, the people of the Xuan family may not have the slightest resistance!

And if Lu Dingbang is in the Xuan family, to a large extent, it has already made those young people afraid, and although Lu Dingbang's cultivation is not as good as Xuanji, but

Xuanji sighed lightly and said, "The reason why those families in the city don't dare to act rashly is not because Lu Dingbang is sitting here, but because they don't know how Qing'er and I are doing now, so they will temporarily forbear." Now that Qing'er and I are back, I think those families will soon make a move. ”
