Chapter Eighty-Three: The Gathering of Storms
Tongtian Peak, the main hall of Rashomon.
Sun Yuan's mood must be quite good.
The prestige of the head of the house sat on the high chair in the council room, and he was usually unsmiling, but the corners of his mouth clearly showed a hint of a smile at the moment.
It is no wonder that the power carefully cultivated by the Ma family and the Simon family in Rashomon has kept him in the throat for so many years, and now a seemingly inconspicuous rookie disciple has helped him completely remove this thorn.
To say that Xu Ning impressed him the most was nothing more than a very talented teenager, but now, everything is different. The mysterious power displayed by the boy made him praise him with any praise.
He was waiting for Xu Ning.
At the same time, the other person in the corner of the temple waited a little longer.
This is a tall young man with a body shape similar to Sun Yuan, and the wide moon-white robe is put over the thin body, and the whole person looks thinner and thinner. A slightly messy long hair is casually draped over his shoulders, looking casual and uninhibited.
The handsome face with facial features was like a pool of stagnant water, and there was no expression in the pale face.
When Xu Ning walked in and bowed down to pay homage to the door master, the young man squinted, and only at this time did his eyes look so sharp like a blade.
"This is your senior brother." Sun Yuan pointed to the corner and said.
Xu Ning raised his eyes and saw that the young man in white was slowly walking out of the shadows in the corner.
"My name is Chen Jin. You are Xu Ning. The man in white said, the corners of his thin and bloodless lips twitching, as if he was smiling.
Chen Jin of the Fengyun Club?
Xu Ning's heart trembled, he hugged his fists and saluted, and couldn't help but look at it a few more times.
In Tongtian Peak, the Fengyun Society and the Dragon and Tiger Society of the Thorn Dao Alliance are three-legged, when Xu Ning only occasionally hears this snobbery, not to mention Chen Jin, he has never seen one of the disciples of the Fengyun Society, it is really mysterious.
I have long heard that Chen Jin's martial arts cultivation is unfathomable, and it is not much better than Bai Shenyu. And his behavior is even more unpredictable and mysterious, this Chen Jin suddenly appeared in front of him today, was it an unintentional encounter or another reason?
Sun Yuan saw Xu Ning's thoughts on the side, waved his hand and smiled: "Xu Ning, you don't have to speculate, Chen Jin is specially waiting for you to come over, we have something important to discuss today." ”
The two young men sat opposite each other on either side of the hall, and their eyes were still snooping at each other, intentionally or unintentionally.
"In this pagoda trial, you have made a great contribution, and as soon as Ma Hong dies, the Dragon Tiger Gate will no longer exist. From then on, Tongtian Peak only had the Thorn Dao Alliance and the Fengyun Society, and there were no treacherous people to trouble my Rashomon. Sun Yuan smiled with his eyebrows, and the wrinkles on his originally furrowed face were suddenly alleviated a lot.
But when Xu Ning heard this, he couldn't help but have doubts in his heart: It has not been a day or two since the Dragon and Tiger Sect did evil to Tongtianfeng, and it is not difficult if the head of the sect insists on eradicating it, and the cultivation of the head of Sun has already reached the marshal realm, not to mention that the prestige has entered the mountain and responded.
It's just that Xu Ning thought about it in his heart, but he didn't say it.
But what kind of character Sun Yuan is, he has already seen his mind clearly, and he explained: "I am in a dilemma." You only know that the backers of this Dragon and Tiger Gate are the Ma family and the Ximen family, in fact, the strength of these two families is not in the eyes of the old man at all, and the reason why they endure again and again is because the strength behind these two families is too huge. ”
After hearing this, Xu Ning's heart moved again: "The force that even Rashomon is afraid of, how terrifying is it." He had already ended several lives of the two families, and originally thought that the enemy was no longer able to return to the sky and could no longer pose a threat, but now it seems that he is only afraid that he will not be at peace in the future.
This is not afraid, although Xu Ning is not very old, he has already been born and died a few times, and his nature is as strong as fire. It's just that no one wants to cause trouble for themselves.
Sun Yuan and the young man looked at him at a young age and looked like he was not afraid of heaven and earth, and they were also full of admiration in their hearts.
Sun Yuan took what he had just said and said: "You have a great credit for getting rid of the backbone of these two families, and I will definitely cultivate your potential well, if Rashomon misses your piece of jade, wouldn't it make the world laugh." ”
Xu Ning hurriedly got up and thanked the head of the house, Sun Yuan was happy in his heart, and laughed loudly: "You don't have to thank me, you should thank Chen Jin first." ”
Xu Ning was stunned for a moment, looking at Chen Jin, who was close at hand, and didn't know why.
"You've heard of Fengyunmen, but you've never seen anyone, have you?" Chen Jin stood up, walked up to Xu Ning, and asked.
Xu Ning shook his head and said nothing.
Chen Jin finally showed his first expression, and said with a slight smile: "Fengyun Sect absorbs people from here, but we don't cultivate in this Tongtian Peak. ”
"Where?" Xu Ning asked, his curiosity rising.
"In the wilderness of the South." Chen Jin replied.
Southern Wilderness? Xu Ning suddenly remembered the night in the Southern Barbarian King City, and then remembered the mysterious king of Wu Tu.
"In the southern wilderness, poisonous miasma and evil qi, demon beasts and fierce birds are rampant, and only the most powerful martial cultivators can survive in a sinister and abnormal environment." Sun Yuan got up and walked off the stage and said to him, "With your current martial arts cultivation, judging from the selection criteria of Fengyun Gate, there is still a big gap. But the reason why I chose you is because I value your unlimited potential and character. ”
"Fengyuntang is an elite force that I have secretly cultivated in Rashomon, if Tongtian Peak wants to completely get rid of the enemy's control, it is up to you." Sun Yuan pressed his hand on his shoulder, and a powerful aura also made Xu Ning feel surging in his chest.
Wealth and wealth are sought in danger, and the same is true for the cultivation path of martial artists. If you want to become a strong person, you should choose the most arduous training conditions, and the wild land is actually a breeding place for natural and earthly treasures.
But who are these so-called hostile forces?
It's just that these two seniors don't want to give it all to themselves now, so he won't ask more.
Suddenly, I thought of the Assassin League, and when I thought of Bai Shenyu, my heart began to be a little confused, I thought that the three major forces of Rashomon were all from the same way, but now it seems that there is a lot of work. The relationship on this Tongtian Peak is intertwined and mysterious.
However, as long as he can improve his martial arts cultivation, nothing else matters. After all, he has always been just Xu Ning, and the direction he is moving in cannot be changed by others.
"If you have the love of the head of the family, the disciple agrees." Xu Ning bowed to the two.
At this moment, he is a person from Fengyun Hall.
Sun Yuan was overjoyed, from Xu Ning's perseverance when he first climbed the cliff, he was sure that this person would definitely not be an ordinary person in the future, and then in this series of events, this child was beyond imagination in terms of both his progress in cultivation and his calmness in the face of the enemy.
In the dark, he felt more and more that Xu Ning would definitely reach a height that even he could not reach in time.
The face of the hall master of Fengyun Hall still maintained his usual calmness, he looked at the tall and strong young man in front of him, and from the aura of the Gang Qi on his body, he couldn't see how strong his ability was.
After all, he had only heard about Xu Ning's information.
But what he can be completely sure of is that this person is by no means an idle person, and a president of the Fengyun Society who can kill the fourth layer of the Great General Realm is enough to explain it. There must be a lot of terrible abilities hidden in this young man's body, this is potential, and this potential is the most unfathomable thing.
The difference between scrap wood and genius is the difference between talent potential.
"When you go back, take care of what you're going to bring with you, and tomorrow we'll leave here and head to the southern wilderness." Chen Jin confessed to Xu Ning.
Xu Ning asked more: "Is there anyone else?" ”
"No, Fengyuntang only accepts the best martial artists now, or in the future." Chen Jin said coldly.
Xu Ning didn't stay any longer, turned around and walked out of the chamber.
In the hall, Chen Jin turned around and sat down and wondered: "The martial arts cultivation I identified from his body is impossible to kill Ma Hong, what is going on?" ”
Sun Yuan's face was mysterious, and he lowered his voice and said: "The martial arts cultivation path of the Soul Continent is different, for example, your ability depends more on the art of refining weapons than on the realm of internal force. ”
Chen Jin bowed slightly, thoughtful in his heart. I heard the head of the sect continue: "However, Xu Ning killed Ma Hong in the trial pagoda, and he really didn't rely on his own strength, and someone secretly helped him. ”
Chen Jin's face changed slightly when he heard this: "Who is it?" ”
"White Sinking Fish!"
"White sunken fish?"
Sun Yuan's voice was as thin as a mosquito fly: "Ma Hong suddenly had a big breath in a situation where the scene was dominant, so much so that he was pierced to death by Xu Ning's strange chains, I felt that there must be something strange in this." Afterwards, he secretly examined Ma Hong's body and found that he had planted a poisonous spell talisman from the Assassin Dao League. ”
"Bai Shenyu's ability is not under me, if he does it secretly, Ma Hong will definitely not be able to guard against it. What's more, there are only these few people who can break the ban on the pagoda. After hearing this, Chen Jin couldn't help but laugh, "This eldest lady of the Bai family has always been proud of the world, and it seems that I have already gambled all for my junior brother Liu." ”
Sun Yuan also shook his head and smiled bitterly: "This is the gap." Don't you have this temperament, but for the sake of this sinking fish......"
"Don't reveal my scars, it's all in the past. Shen Yu can move the heart of Senior Brother Liu, and that is also the creation of my Fengyunmen. Chen Jin's words were extremely natural, and Sun Yuan was also very comforted, it seemed that entrusting Fengyuntang to him was not wrong.
In fact, there was still a faint pain in Chen Jin's heart, he had a bitter love for Bai Shenyu but could not get it, and finally when he was disheartened, he was sent to the wild land in the south by Sun Yuan, and gradually repaired his wounds.
It's just that when I suddenly hear this name again today, it will more or less still touch the wound at the bottom of my heart, the wound has been scarred, but the mark has been left.
Bamboo garden pavilion, breeze.
Xu Ning had walked here unconsciously, and he really saw the familiar graceful figure sitting in the pavilion.
The white sunken fish was dressed in goose-yellow light yarn, like a yellow flower blooming in this green bamboo sea, and when she looked up and saw Xu Ning walking over, the longing and sorrow on her face were completely taken away by the breeze.
"Xu Ning." She called out his name.
She was so eager and hot, after the three of them parted with each other the night before, she stayed here all day when she was fine, she knew that Xu Ning would come back eventually, but the pain of lovesickness would make this wait even more tormenting.
Xu Ning hurried over, sat down in front of her, and clearly saw tears flickering in the corners of her eyes.
"I originally wanted to come over, but I was very busy these two days, and my master wanted me to ......" His heart became inexplicably empty.
The old man of Huangji was about to blurt out these four words, but was interrupted by Bai Shenyu: "I know, after you compete, you will inevitably lose your Yuan power, so you must cultivate quietly." ”
Xu Ning reached out and helped her wipe away her tears.
"I ...... I've joined Fengyun Hall, and I'm leaving here tomorrow......" Xu Ning plucked up his courage and said intermittently.
When Bai Shenyu heard this, he couldn't say anything for a while, so he only held Xu Ning's hand tightly and put it on his face.
After a long time, she resolutely said: "If you can enter Fengyun Hall, you are the most outstanding people here. And the hall master ......" She paused slightly, took a deep breath, and continued with a forced smile: "Senior Brother Chen Jin is a decent person, I can rest assured that you go to Fengyun Hall." ”
When Xu Ning heard this, Zhongli was relieved, took out the jade pendant from his chest, and said, "I will come to see you as soon as I am free, but I still have something to ask for." ”
"You just say it, don't say one thing, it's a hundred things, I promise you." Looking at Xu Ning's solemn look, she burst into tears and smiled.
"You must not cry again."
Xu Ning grinned.
