In this world, there are some powerful ancient martial arts sects that have completely detached themselves from the world, hidden in the mountains, and above all living beings.

They have unique historical conditions, unimaginably large and rare resources, and gather the aura of heaven and earth in their own environmental advantages, compared to the ancient martial arts families who have fallen into the ordinary world, they are the real powerhouses!

These long-standing sects, which have a history of thousands of years, are collectively known as the Hidden Sects.

In the tens of thousands of years of civilization history in China, there have been countless powerful sects in the cycle of birth, strength, and annihilation, and those that still exist today are already beyond the mundane, and they are not something that martial artists can imagine.

The top ten ancient martial arts families in Shangjing, although there are also many outstanding talents among them, but compared to the really powerful hidden door, they are just masters who are beyond the mundane and stand out from the crowd, how can they compare with those hidden people who gather the spirit of mountains and rivers and have a long history?

Qin Ruo was a little sluggish, he couldn't digest these things that came out of Qin Tianyin's mouth at all.

"The Ten Great Families are actually just the secular periphery of the Hidden Sect, providing them with all kinds of resources for their cultivation?"

"And not every family is qualified to be their worldly help?"

"Our Qin family doesn't even have the qualifications to become a helper?"

A series of questions completely subverted Qin Ruo's previous perception of ancient martial arts and power.

The Ten Ancient Martial Families were already one of the most powerful forces in his heart, and only now did he know that the family was just reduced to the help of others, and this fact simply moved him to the extreme.

Qin Tianyin didn't have any other words to comfort him except for a wry smile: "This is a fact, although I don't want to admit it either." For example, our Qin family, as well as the Long family, although they are the top two families on the surface, it is just because there is no powerful hidden door to look at, so they have accumulated some resources. In fact, our real heritage is not even comparable to the Mu family. ”

"Could it be that the Mu family is a secular help from the Hidden Gate?" Qin Ruo was shocked.

"Otherwise, why do you think the other heads of the house are so afraid of them? It's just a woman, if it weren't for the powerful hidden door behind the Mu family, which has been providing them with family resources, the Mu family would have replaced the Long family a long time ago. ”

Qin Ruo was a little puzzled: "Since the Mu family provided resources to those hidden doors, what benefits did they get?" ”

Qin Tianyin raised his eyebrows and said solemnly: "If a family is facing destruction, and no one in the clan has the ability to turn the tide, then you should understand the role that the hidden door can play, right?" ”

"But about the Hidden Gate, it's even more secretive than the Dragons, and you can't find any news except for a few people."

Looking at Qin Ruo, who was stunned and didn't speak, Qin Tianyin continued: "Regarding the matter of your father twenty years ago, it was actually investigated by the Mu family. If it weren't for their relationship, where would I have thought things would be so complicated back then? ”

"Qin Ruo, as your grandfather, I don't want you to investigate the events of the year, after all, I don't want the Qin family to cause another turmoil, let alone any accidents for you. But if you don't want to give up, I won't be reluctant, you can go to western Sichuan and ask the head of the Mu family in person. ”

Qin Ruo was speechless, and he couldn't calm down for a long time......

Liu's house in Beijing, in the conference hall.

In the middle of the seat, it was Liu Haichuan, the head of the Liu family, who was the strongest in the cultivation of the Liu family and had reached the late stage of the Eight Heavens of Transformation.

He looked at everyone without saying a word, and his silence made it impossible to figure out what was in his mind.

On the left and right sides of his head are the elders of the Liu family.

The second elder, Liu Shuyi, was in the middle of the Eight Heavens, his spirit was strong, and his eyes were different.

The third elder, Liu Shulin, in the middle of the Eight Heavens, has gloomy eyes and deep scheming, and is the think tank of the Liu family.

Fourth Elder Liu Shutian......

The Six Elders, etc......

Fifth Elder Liu Shuyuan's position was empty, which seemed a little abrupt and not so harmonious.

Some people's eyes glanced at the vacant seat from time to time, and their eyes showed strong hatred and unwillingness. It's just that no one spoke, as if they were thinking about something.

Most of the people looked at Liu Ziheng with a dejected face, they had never seen the high-spirited and handsome second young master in the past.

Making decisions without authorization and using the huge resources of the family, just such a crime has already made Liu Ziheng extremely depressed.

Originally, he wanted to kill Qin Ruo, but he didn't expect to be defeated by Qin Ruo's army in just two days, and the Liu family secretly controlled the large and small gangs, at least more than ten of them were exterminated, and as many as thirty surrendered.

The large and small enterprises, companies, clubs, etc. under the Liu family have all kinds of people making trouble every day. Either gang fighting, or being discovered by the police to sell drugs and launder money, it is simply a miasma, inextricable, and completely unable to operate normally.

Almost every hour, the stewards and managers below called for help, but it didn't work at all.

Liu Haichuan, the head of the family, sent out a large number of people as soon as possible.

But wherever there is a master in charge, once the other party knows that there is no confrontation at all, he will run away after harassing him. And where there are no masters, there are even more fierce troubles, and there are as many as 17 or 8 places that have caused fires, gas explosions, and poisoning incidents.

"Father, what should we do now, we must not go on like this." Liu Ziheng gritted his teeth and said, his face full of anxiety.

Originally, he wanted to come back for help, but after knowing that he had told these things, he was severely punished by his father Liu Haichuan.

Not only that, but his eldest brother Liu Ziyao added fuel to the fire with sarcasm, saying that although his cultivation has increased a lot in recent years, his scheming is still in the childhood stage, and it is better to stay at home in the future, and it will be embarrassing to go out.

Liu Ziyao, who looks five points similar to Liu Ziheng, is the eldest young master of the Liu family.

Although Xiuwei is only the peak of the six heavens, his personality is almost the same as that of his father Liu Haichuan, who is good at leading the overall situation, and his thoughts are deep and obscure. Whether it is business or family affairs, he can assist in the orderly cooking, which is very important for Liu Haichuan to take a look at.

Liu Ziyao sat in Liu Ziheng's upper position, glanced at this younger brother with a smile, and said, "Since the second brother has the ability to cause trouble, why don't you have the ability to deal with the aftermath?" Now that the trouble is so big, the family has lost at least billions, don't you have anything to do? ”

"I ......" Liu Ziheng's handsome face was even more ugly, and his eyes were full of hatred.

"When you were going to use the dead soldiers of the family, I, as an elder brother, reminded you that it was you who patted your chest to ensure that it was okay, so I didn't stop it."

Liu Ziyao sneered, his eyes full of disdain: "As for the armor-piercing bullet you used later, I knew that you were determined to lose this time." ”

"Why didn't you remind me if you knew I was going to lose?" Liu Ziheng said angrily.

"Reminder?"

Liu Ziyao smiled faintly and said, "Will you listen to me?" Don't I know your character, you have always been arrogant, except for a few people such as Long Wudao, who has been taken into account by you? ”

"What nonsense are you talking about......"

"Alright, shut up!"

Finally, Liu Haichuan, who couldn't stand the quarrel between the two brothers, finally spoke with a gloomy face. He turned his head to look at the second elder Liu Shuyi and said, "Second elder, what do you think?" ”

Liu Shu pondered for a moment and said, "Family Master, after all, our Liu family is only ranked eighth in the Shangjing family, and if we want to confront the Qin family head-on, I'm afraid there are still some difficulties." ”

"Whether it is the strength or financial resources of the Qin family, including the friendship with other families, it is not something that our Liu family can compare. If you don't want to come up with the best solution, I'm just afraid of ......"

Without waiting for Liu Haichuan to ask, the third Liu Shulin took the initiative to speak.

He looked like an ordinary middle-aged man, with a hint of peace and tranquility on his face, but if he didn't ignore the hint of cunning and insidiousness in his eyes, he would guess that he was definitely not a simple person.

"Family master, originally the Qin family and our Liu family did not have much superficial contradiction, although there were disputes in private, but the ten major families were like this, it was nothing. But now, because of Ziheng, if the Qin family is dissatisfied, then we will lose more than we gain. ”

Liu Shuyi frowned and said: "It shouldn't be, after all, we notified Qin Wuyuan of this matter at that time, and he shouldn't use the topic to play, after all, his Qin family has no de facto loss." ”

With an unfathomable smile on his face, Liu Shulin said, "Second brother, do you really think that the Qin family is Qin Wuqi in power?" ”

"Why, what do you mean......"

"Since the ancestor of the Qin family came out of the customs, I am afraid that the real decision-making power of the Qin family is all in the hands of Qin Tianyin. It is said that he felt most sorry for his eldest son Qin Wuwei back then, and for Qin Ruo, the eldest grandson, I am afraid that paying attention to Cheng Dù is not something we can imagine. Liu Shulin snorted coldly and said, "If he really wants to find a place for Qin Ruo, who do you say is the opponent of the ancestor of the Qin family?" ”

Suddenly, the atmosphere at the scene became strange.

Originally, I thought that it was just a competition between juniors, and it was a big deal to rise to the family competition, but now after listening to Liu Shulin's words, even the expression of the head of the family, Liu Haichuan, became solemn.

Qin Tianyin, although he has been crippled for more than 20 years, what he saw at the wedding banquet at the beginning was clearly not the appearance of a dying old man. Every move is extremely majestic and imposing, even if you don't see him make a move, you can know that he is definitely not a strong man to mess with.

"If you want to resolve the family's predicament, do you really have to ......" Liu Haichuan had a thought flashing in his heart, and then pressed it again. As the head of the family, although he knew what the most powerful killer weapon of the Liu family was, he was absolutely unwilling to use it until the critical time.

Favor, once used, one less time, in the end, when you really need to use it to save your life, I'm afraid it's gone!

The audience suddenly fell silent, and everyone's expressions were extremely deep, as if they were thinking about what way to solve the current dilemma.

After all, they are powerful ancient warriors from above, so they can't personally lead a group of subordinates to compete with those troublemakers, right? If it spreads, it will definitely be the biggest joke in the entire Shangjing City.

At this time, a person who looked like a steward came in a hurry, and when he saw Liu Haichuan, who was the leader, he knelt at the door of the hall before he could say anything.

Liu Haichuan was about to get angry, when was an important family meeting also trespassed?

When he saw the identity of the person, he was suddenly startled, and immediately said, "Steward Sun, what happened?" ”

Kneeling at the door of the hall, Steward Sun, who was specially responsible for dealing with this incident, immediately wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead as soon as he heard Liu Haichuan's inquiry, and hurriedly said: "Qiqi family master, our two medicine gardens in Jiangnan Province had a fire at five o'clock in the morning this morning, and all the precious herbs, flowers and trees in them were all burned. The more than 3,000 pills that had been refined were all gone......"

"What!"

The audience was shaken!

The two medicine gardens that the Liu family regarded as the root of their lives were actually burned!
