After stabilizing Zhang Jiao, Bai Yu stopped talking nonsense, but went straight to the point, and told Xiao Jue what Zhang Jiao had said to him before without reservation, because of the secrets hidden in the Izumo Mountain Realm, Bai Yu was very curious, and he also hoped that Xiao Jue, an old antique who had lived for more than a thousand years, could give an answer!

Xiao Jue listened to Bai Yu's narration without saying a word, sometimes frowning, sometimes exclaiming, but he never interrupted Bai Yu's narration, until Bai Yu told Xiao everything about it, the entire Soul Mansion suddenly became dull, and a strange silence almost enveloped Bai Yu's entire Soul Mansion, and the atmosphere was solemn...... Zhang Jiao and Bai Yu couldn't help but fix their eyes on Xiao Jue's body, and Xiao Jue locked the pair of snow-like white eyebrows, and the whole person fell into contemplation, if there was anyone else in Bai Yu's Soul Mansion who could remain calm, it could only be the sword god Ximen Blowing Snow in the corner!

After a while, Bai Yu took the lead in breaking the dullness and asked Xiao Jue, "Brother Xiao, have you ever heard of that small town in the mountains?"

"At the beginning, the old man had also been to the top of Izumo Peak, but for the small town in the mountains in the mouth of the Zhang Jiao brothers, the old man had never heard of it, let alone seen it, even if he stood at the top of Izumo Peak, the old man couldn't feel that there was such a mysterious force hidden in the mountain rock under his feet!" Xiao Jue shook his head blankly, and then continued to analyze: " Maybe it's because their concealment work is too good, even a master of the old man's level can't see through it, until the purple thunder split Izumo Peak eight hundred years ago, their mountain town will be exposed, although it was repaired by the mysterious force afterwards, but the effect is definitely not as good as before, in order to prevent the exposure of the small town in the mountain, so they will continue to send people to lurk in the core of the Izumo Mountain Range to block those invaders who break into the Izumo Mountain Range, which has also triggered the legend of the Izumo Mountain Range on the Shenzhou...... From this, it can be inferred that the forces that live in the small towns in the mountains are a force with a long history and have been living in seclusion!"

Xiao Jue's eloquent analysis immediately caused Bai Yu and Zhang Jiao to nod in agreement.

Bai Yu continued to ask: "They are also one of the mysterious forces chasing and killing Boss Zhang, Brother Xiao, can you guess their identities? Throughout the ages, looking at Shenzhou, there are only a dozen Martial Emperors whose strength can reach the black-level realm, and that strength has actually sent three at once, which is really terrifying!"

As soon as he mentioned the three black-level realm martial emperors, Bai Yu still couldn't help but gasp, not to mention anything else, let's just say that the Tang Empire, as the number one power in the Central Plains and one of the strongest forces in Shenzhou, actually has only one purple-level powerhouse, and a purple-level powerhouse Li Undefeated can push the Tang Empire to the position of the overlord of the Central Plains, and the strength that attacked Zhang Jiao ...... Bai Yu didn't dare to think about it, and now, Bai Yu was even a little glad that those guys were reclusive!

"Whether there are black-level Martial Emperors in Ethereal Peak and Bliss Temple, the old man doesn't know, but the old man can be sure that whether it is Ethereal Peak or Bliss Temple, they can't have more than one black-level Martial Emperor, and even whether they have a black-level Martial Emperor is unknown!, so they can be ruled out!" Xiao Jue said with great certainty.

Bai Yu asked a little dazedly, "Ethereal Peak and Jile Temple are both known as the two most powerful forces in the world today, if you exclude them...... And who else?"

Along with Bai Yu's question, Zhang Jiao and Xiao Jue also fell silent one after another. This corner didn't know who the mysterious force that attacked him was, and Xiao Jue couldn't think of a breakthrough point for a while, and suddenly, the entire Soul Mansion returned to silence.

At this time, Ximen Fuxue, who had never opened his mouth, said the four words of shock, although his voice was still cold, but his tone had changed slightly, and there was a slight sense of awe in his tone: "Four families!"

Smelling the "four major families" of Ximen blowing snow, Bai Yu and Zhang Jiao looked confused, and Xiao Jue seemed to have received some hint, and when even his face was happy, he hurriedly shouted: "That's right! The four major families! Looking at Shenzhou, only the four major families have the strength to build that small city in the mountains, and only the four major families can send three black-level realm martial emperors at one time! Why didn't the old man think of it?"

"Wait......" Bai Yu immediately waved his hand to interrupt Xiao Jue's words, and asked puzzledly, "What are the forces of the four major families?"

"The Four Great Families are an extremely mysterious force, ordinary people will not know about the existence of the Four Great Families at all, just like you and Zhang Jiao's brothers......" Xiao Jue pointed at Bai Yu and Zhang Jiao, and continued: " Only when the strength reaches the purple-level upper grade and is only one step away from the black-level Martial Emperor, it is enough to be qualified to know about the existence of the four major families, because at that time, one of the four major families will send someone to recruit all the strong people above the Divine Prefecture whose strength has reached the purple-level upper grade to cultivate within the four major families, so as to break through the purple level more quickly and enter the realm of the black-level Martial Emperor, of course, the recruited person also has the right to give up entering the four major families, these are all voluntary......"

"The four major families rarely interfere in the affairs of Shenzhou, at least the old man has never heard of them intervening in Shenzhou directly, and their existence gives the old man the feeling that it is for some kind of ancient oath...... It wasn't until the Zhang Jiao brothers' 'Taiping Qing Ling' appeared that the old man heard for the first time that the four major families would actually interfere in the affairs of Shenzhou......" After a pause, Xiao Jue seemed to fall into the memories of the past, "Which four families are included in the four major families, the old man doesn't know, it was the Murong family who recruited the old man at the beginning, and the Murong family is the descendant of the Northern Great Yan Kingdom during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period......

Xiao Jue didn't really know much about the four major families, and he only got some information from the Murong family that had recruited him at the beginning.

"Stop!" Bai Yu seemed to remember something, and suddenly interrupted Xiao Jue's narration, "Murong family, Brother Xiao, you seem to have said before, brother, the seal on my body has the technique of the Murong family, right?"

"That's right!" Xiao Jue nodded and said, "That is indeed the sealing technique of the Murong family, one of the four major families...... By the way, didn't that Li Undefeated once say that you are Murong Wan's child? Could it be ...... Your seal was personally imposed by Murong Wan, and you are a descendant of the Murong family?"

Bai Yu immediately spoke: "Brother, that's exactly what I mean! Isn't Li Undefeated also a purple-level powerhouse? I believe that he will also be recruited by the four major families, perhaps, it is the Murong family who recruited Li Undefeated, otherwise how would Li Undefeated know Murong Wan? Moreover, when the name Murong Wan was mentioned, Li Undefeated's face was a little complicated...... Is it all just a coincidence? Unlikely, right?"

The powerful and mysterious four major families, the three black-level martial emperors who killed Zhang Jiao in order to snatch the "Taiping Qing Collar", the mysterious Izumo Mountain Range and the small town in the mountains, the Murong family, the descendants of the Great Yan Kingdom, the sealing technique of the Murong family left on Bai Yu's body, and the name Murong Wan...... All the puzzles point to the four major families, but what does the four great families have to do with Bai Yu? Could it be that Murong Wan is really a member of the Murong family, one of the four major families? And Bai Yu is really a descendant of the Murong family? If Bai Yu is really a descendant of the Murong family, what impact will it have on his future?

Unconsciously, Bai Yu seemed to feel the big net laid by the four major families, and it seemed that he was also enveloped in it......

The atmosphere in the Soul Mansion turned silent again...... The existence of the four major families, and the fact that Bai Yu may also be inextricably linked to the Murong family, one of the four major families, everything is like a mountain, pressing Xiao Jue and Bai Yu and the others below......
