Chapter 540: The Eight Great Families
With a slight sigh in his heart, Jian Chen knew very well in his heart that he had lost the best opportunity to help the Zhantian Mercenary Group just now, and even if he went out now, he would have nothing to do.
"Are you Chen Jian, the leader of the Bright Moon Mercenary Regiment?"
Just when Jian Chen was about to leave, Ye Tian's voice just came out, turned his head, looked at the black-clothed and white-haired young man in front of him, how dare Jian Chen have the slightest disrespect, and asked respectfully: "It's Jian Chen, I don't know what the seniors told me to do?"
"I have something to ask for, I don't know if you will say yes."
Hearing that the young man actually had something to ask for him, Chen Jian was suddenly overjoyed in his heart, after all, the other party was a genuine martial ancestor powerhouse, equivalent to the head of an eighth-level mercenary group.
As soon as he thought of the eighth-level mercenary group, Chen Jian's heart was stabbed fiercely, because for countless years on the mainland, there had never been a mercenary group above the eighth level.
However, he didn't expect that he would be fortunate enough to see an eighth-level mercenary group today, although the current level of this mercenary group was only seventh, it could not hide the fact that the young martial ancestor realm.
"If the predecessor has any orders, as long as the Mingyue Mercenary Group can do it, they will definitely die."
nodded with satisfaction, and then Ye Tian did not hide it at all, and asked directly: "I heard that there is a soul returning grass in your Mingyue mercenary group, but is there such a thing?"
Chen Jian, who was still overjoyed, suddenly showed a trace of helplessness on his face after hearing what the young man in front of him was asking for, and he scolded himself fiercely in his heart.
Seeing the man's face, Ye Tian's heart instantly sank, and a bad premonition suddenly appeared, and then he asked urgently: "What's the matter?
"Senior, we do have Soul Returning Grass in our group, but if the seniors came ten days earlier, the juniors would definitely hand it over to you, but now ......."
"But what?"
"The younger generation has already sold the Soul Returning Grass."
"Who did you sell to?"
Hearing that the man in front of him had actually sold the Soul Returning Grass, Ye Tian's heart was also scratched fiercely, because he had heard that this Soul Returning Grass was a kind of herb that could be encountered but not sought.
Legend has it that the Soul Returning Grass can heal the soul, and the soul is simply the most important thing for a person, so you can imagine how valuable this Soul Returning Grass is.
"Senior, we sold to an ancient family."
"Where?"
"It's only a thousand miles away from the Star Desolate Continent, but senior, this ancient family is very powerful, and it is the Zhou family, one of the eight great families on the continent."
"Eight great families?"
Hearing the Eight Great Families, Ye Tian suddenly had a feeling in his heart, that is, at the beginning, he still knew too little about this continent, and in his world, he always believed that the forces exposed on the surface were the five major sects of the righteous path, the eight major sects of the demon path, and countless large and small sects.
But with the recommendation of time, he learned that in fact, on this continent, in addition to the sects on the surface, there are also the hidden forces behind the Sword God Mountain, the Hell Realm, the Sword God Sea, the Soul Hall and the three holy places.
But now listening to the man in front of him say that there are eight great families on the continent, and the outer heaven that the zodiac just told him, Ye Tian doesn't know how many forces there are on this continent.
"Let's talk about the affairs of the eight great families."
Although Jian Chen didn't know the power of the young man, he didn't know the eight great families on the mainland, but he knew what to ask and what not to ask.
"Predecessors, there are a total of eight great families on the mainland, namely Zhao, Zhou, Wang, Tang, Lu, Dongmen, Ximen, Duanmu, Han, among the eight families, the power of the Zhou family is the strongest, and the power of the Han family is the weakest."
"Wait, among the eight great families you just mentioned, there are two families surnamed Han and Tang?"
Nodding slightly, although Jian Chen didn't know why the young man in front of him asked like this, he still replied: "Among the eight great families, two of them are surnamed Han and Tang."
After it was determined, Ye Tian's first thought was that Dugu's family was also surnamed Han, would it be Dugu's family that sought defeat, it was one of the eight great families, and at the beginning in the ancient ruins, there was a person who called himself the Tang family, would it also be one of the eight great families.
"You go on."
"The strength of each of the eight great families is very strong, especially the Zhou family, one of the eight great families, it is said that the Zhou family's residence is a super strong person who has cultivated to reach the Martial Emperor."
Martial Emperor powerhouse?
For a Martial Emperor, Ye Tian didn't take it to heart at all, but what surprised him was that the head of the Zhou family was actually a Martial Emperor-level powerhouse.
But you must know that even if it is the Five Elements Gate of the first sect in the world, the master of the main sect is only a strong person who has cultivated to reach the realm of Martial Ancestor, and the head of each family is a Martial Emperor.
Although it is impossible to compare the strength of the two forces, who is stronger and who is weak, Ye Tian knows that the strength of this Zhou family and the strength of the eight great families are not simple.
"Do you know where the Zhou family is?"
"I don't know".
But before Ye Tian could say anything, Chen Jian continued: "But I know a production area of the Zhou family, if the predecessors can find this production area, maybe they can find the Zhou family."
"Say, where is the Zhou family's place of origin, and who did you sell your Soul Returning Grass to?"
"I sold the Soul Returning Grass to a person named Zhou Kang, who said that this Zhou Kang is a descendant of the Zhou family and has the strength of a martial king, and one of the Zhou family's properties is an auction house called Hundred Treasure Chests in Wufeng Town, thousands of miles away."
Nodding slightly, after knowing this, Ye Tian didn't ask any more, and then took out a booklet from his arms, handed it to the man in front of him, and said: "This is a set of cultivation techniques, as long as you follow the cultivation above, within a hundred years, you should be able to reach the realm of the Martial Emperor."
After Ye Tian gave a set of exercises in the Zhantian Divine Record to Jian Chen, he quickly left the Star Desolate Deep Forest with the twelve zodiac signs, and Chen Jian looked at the cheats in his hand, and the whole person was stunned.
It's just that what Ye Tian and Chen Jian didn't expect was that because of this secret book, Chen Jian's fate has changed since then, not only was his mercenary group disbanded in the future, but also constantly hunted down, but others wanted to get his secret book, but how could Chen Jian give this secret book to others, a book that can allow a martial artist's cultivation to reach the supreme martial arts of the Martial Emperor, even if it is life and death, it must be kept.
