Chapter 5 Ning Yuan Dan
In the spacious and bright hall of the Zhang family.
An all-encompassing ancient painting of the Demon Spirit hangs horizontally on the wall in the center.
The world in the painting is very magnificent, and many strange demons come to life.
In the hall, there is no empty seat, and all the cores of the Zhang family are gathered here.
On the first seat, there is a middle-aged man in a gorgeous white robe, the man's handsome face has long been destroyed by the turn of time, only stability and shrewdness remain, the town is like a mountain wide open and closed sitting posture, showing the majesty of the head of the family.
Under the lobby, there are three old people with bright eyes and energetic spirits, each holding a zodiac cane, standing with angry eyes and aggressive words in their mouths.
"Patriarch, my grandson Zhang Qing, is extremely talented, and now he is only at the end of seventeen years old, and he has already reached the cultivation of the seventy demon spirit points, and among the younger generations of the whole clan, there is no one who can match it, that hard-won Ning Yuan Dan...... You see ....... β
Led by the ancient old man holding a dragon-patterned wooden staff, holding a chest-length white beard on his chin, Zou Ru's daisy-like old face, his eyes were shining, and he looked at the middle-aged man above the first hall with a smile as if he was bound to win.
At the same time, a middle-aged man in the old man's seat also stood up.
The strong man deliberately raised his voice and said loudly: "What my father said is extremely true, Patriarch Zhang Chen, the fifth young master has been mentally incomplete for five years, and my son is in urgent need of that elixir that can gather 100% of the spirit, for the sake of the overall situation of the family's longevity, you will not still be obsessed with the naΓ―ve fantasy of keeping the elixir and waiting for the fifth young master to recover." β
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the hall, and everyone began to discuss the ownership of this elixir, and the vast majority of the clansmen felt that the distribution of such treasures should be treated fairly for the benefit of everyone.
On the throne of the Lord, when it is heard that the mind is incomplete for five years...... and so on, Zhang Chen's eyes, which were originally as quiet as a lake, were as if they had been thrown into a sinking stone, stirring up huge waves, and the ripples echoed endlessly.
Zhang Chen's thick eyebrows were slightly raised, and the majesty on his face was no longer deliberately restrained, glaring angrily at the old man and the strong man in the hall.
The only Ning Yuan Pill in the family was the spoils that he and the three elders of the family had obtained when they assisted the City Lord of Via in hunting for high-level demon spirits, and the two of them had died for a lifetime.
And the value of that elixir is very hot in Via City alone, and the sky-high price is also unmarketable, so you can imagine how precious it is.
Under the hall, the old man holding the dragon pattern wooden staff was Zhang Shinan, the great elder of the elder council in the family, and the middle-aged strong man beside him was the son of the old man and the father of Zhang Qing, Zhang Muzhi.
Today was supposed to be half a year after the meeting, and the coming-of-age ceremony of the young generation of the family, this pair of treacherous and cunning father and son quoted every word to the elixir.
In this way, he also took out Zhang Chen's most cherished fifth son, Zhang Ling, as a topic, and the meaning of his words was unknown to everyone in the hall.
To make it clear is to say that your patriarch's son is mentally retarded, and he has been mentally retarded for five years, don't let go of good things and waste them.
"I agree with the Great Elder's opinion, Ningyuan Dangui is a spiritual object, and it should be applied to the right person in the family, not to mention Qing'er's seventy demon spirit points, even my fourteen-year-old granddaughter Fei'er has now reached the forty-five demon spirit points, for the sake of the family, the patriarch sacrifices a little, it's nothing. β
A hunchbacked old man who stood relatively close to Zhang Shinan held a serpentine wooden staff in his hand and poked the ground fiercely, and a hoarse voice broke out, making people feel uncomfortable listening to it.
This person's name is Zhang Shuiliu, the second elder of the Elders Association of the clan, in Via City, the methods recognized by cultivators are vicious, because the demon spirits all over the body are snake species, people give them the nickname Spirit Snake Master.
Wow......
As soon as these words came out, there was another commotion in the hall, forty-five demon spirit points, fourteen-year-old Zhang Fei'er, it seems that there is another young genius in the cultivation world within the Zhang clan.
At the age of fourteen, he can reach forty-five demon spirit points, and if he is carefully cultivated in the future, he may not be able to surpass the current genius in the clan, Zhang Qing.
"Oh, really, Fei'er's niece has broken through to forty-five demon spirit points, old snake head, you are really low-key, congratulations. β
Zhang Shinan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said words of congratulations to the rickety old man Zhang Shuiliu, and his eyes were probing Zhang Chen with a dull expression from beginning to end.
At this moment, the scene was already full of people, and the main members of the Zhang clan who were sitting there were all falling to the two elders.
In order to achieve the existing effect in the lobby.
This scene is like two old men who have rehearsed it in advance, and the two of them have taken the lead, and I will echo you when you sing it.
Others can't see that he, Zhang Chen, as the patriarch, still doesn't know the intentions of the old ghosts in these two clans.
"Patriarch, if you can't decide, we can use the clan rules to decide. β
Zhang Shi Nan was not afraid of Zhang Chen's face on the first seat, seeing that the latter was deep in thought, the old man took advantage of the victory to pursue, and did not intend to give him too much time to think.
The Zhang family has rules, and if they are indecided, they can adopt a voting system, but now the result is obvious, if Zhang Chen really intends to use the voting system to decide whether to keep the pill or give it, then he will become a real fool.
Zhang Chen's face turned from anger to bitterness, but he was not in a hurry to give an answer to the two old men.
Zhang Chen knew that this stalemate would have to be broken sooner or later, and this elixir, which should have belonged to his son's advancement, seemed to be unable to be kept today.
Alas......
If Ling'er didn't become like this, with that demonic cultivation talent, why did he need the assistance of this elixir, every time he thought about it, Zhang Chen would be upset.
Zhang Chen didn't want to have any more disputes with the two brazen elders on this matter, so he simply did it neatly, waved his robe, and had a white jade treasure box surrounded by spiritual energy in his hand.
As soon as this box came out, the hall was filled with a refreshing fragrance of elixir, and the smellers were eye-catching and amazed.
Suddenly, everyone's controversy came to an abrupt end, and their eyes were all on the treasure box in the hand of the patriarch Zhang Chen.
"This is the Condensing Source Pill?"
"This Dan is so aura, it seems to be of good quality"
"God bless me Zhang"
"Yes, with this Dan, my Zhang clan has another combat power. β
"Defeating the Ye family is just around the corner. β
There was no silence for a moment, and everyone in the hall turned their heads and talked in a low voice, their faces were full of admiration, but Zhang Chen, who was on the first seat, had a depressed face.
In the hall, Zhang Shi Nan and Zhang Muzhi saw that Zhang Chen finally compromised today, and they were full of joy.
The elderly Zhang Shi Nan was old-fashioned, and he actually stepped forward to pick up Dan in person, for fear that Zhang Chen would regret taking back the precious spiritual object.
When the old man, an old hand like a dead wood, was about to take away the white jade treasure box in Zhang Chen's hand, a big man outside the hall door rushed towards the hall with a panicked expression, and shouted repeatedly: "Patriarch, the big thing is not good! The fifth prince was assassinated, and he is still outside the courtyard, and his life is in danger. β
"What ???"
On the first seat, Zhang Chen stood upright and became angry. The white jade treasure box on the palm of his hand was quickly retracted into his sleeve, and the deep and thick yellow spiritual power was transported in the palm of his hand, and it smashed into the large table carved from thousands of catties of ancient wood beside him.
Boom......
The wooden table exploded, and sawdust scattered in the hall.
Everyone in the hall was furious, and they all followed Zhang Chen and ran out of the door, leaving only Zhang Shinan's father and son, who were looking at each other with stunned faces.
