Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Four Great Families
The eight disciples, under the leadership of the family master Qin Heng and the second master Qin Qiyuan and other brothers, quickly entered the Heavenly Desolate City and came to the place agreed with the Spirit Illusion Sect.
This place is not in the bustling part of Heavenly Desolate City, but on a lake on the edge of Heavenly Desolate City.
The lake is quite distinctive, it is cut in half by a horizontal knife from the middle, forming a step with a drop of more than ten meters, and the surrounding mountains are incompatible with the Heavenly Desolate City, which is not like a natural formation, more like a man-made one.
It is said that thousands of years ago, a demon escaped from the [Endless Blood Abyss] and was hunted down by a human powerhouse, and a tragic battle took place, and the surrounding landscape was fundamentally changed, and the lake became its current appearance.
Even after a thousand years, the traces of the Great War remain.
Half of the lake has a pavilion hundreds of meters in size built on the lake, and two stone arch bridges are connected for people to pass.
When he first arrived, the disciples of the Xiang family, who were good friends with the Qin family, had already arrived a few minutes early.
Through the crowd, Qin Heng's gaze fell on the two elderly men, and then he quickened his pace and strode over with a smile.
"Huh...... Two uncles, how are you doing?" Qin Heng said happily, with a polite attitude, where is the majesty in front of the disciples of the Qin family before?
For Qin Heng to lower his identity like this, it is enough to see that the identities of the two old men are not simple.
One of them, with a thin face, but a dignified body, a wide sleeved robe, carrying his hands behind his back, clear eyes and not looking old, is Xiang Jianxiong, the contemporary head of the Xiang family.
And the person who followed Xiang Jianxiong, wearing a robe embroidered with patterns, walked steadily, and his steps were slow and invisibly with a majesty, he was Xiang Guannan, an elder of the Xiang family.
"Qin family master, don't come to harm......" Xiang Jianxiong, the head of the Xiang family, responded to Qin Heng in a friendly voice.
The reconciliation of the Qin and Xiang families is a well-known thing in Tianhuang City.
"Why didn't the elder brother come from afar?" Xiang Guannan glanced at the disciples of the Qin family and the others, and did not find the figure of the elder of the Qin family, and asked.
"My father has no intention of taking care of these things, and I am in charge of it. The three people in Qin Heng's mouth are naturally the only three elders of the Qin family.
"There are two disciples of the Seventh Acquirer, which is very good. Xiang Jianxiong looked at Lu Shaoyi and other Qin family disciples, cultivating to see clearly, but when he saw Lu Shaoyi, his eyes stayed for a few breaths.
Xiang Jianxiong could see Lu Shaoyi's cultivation, but he couldn't know the specific strength, Lu Shaoyi gave him a feeling of being impenetrable.
As an innate powerhouse, Xiang Jianxiong's eyesight and insight are extraordinary, since the Qin family sent a disciple who only had the acquired triple cultivation, he would definitely have extraordinary strength.
The two uncles laughed. Qin Heng said respectfully, in terms of seniority, Xiang Jianxiong and Qin Heng's father, Qin Yuanyan, are the same generation.
Since Qin Heng broke through the innate realm, with his talent and talent, he has taken the position of the head of the Qin family.
When Qin Heng and the Xiang family were polite to each other, the disciples of the Su family and the Huangfu family came together.
Su Sheng, the head of the Su family, and Huangfu, the head of the Huangfu family, were like brothers, walking in the front, walking side by side closely, talking and laughing.
Behind them were a few family elders with a calm aura and more than a dozen high-spirited disciples, and as far as the eye could see, there were as many as six people who had cultivated the seventh level of cultivation the day after tomorrow.
"Looks like we're not as good as the two of them. Xiang Jianxiong's words were quite envious.
For hundreds of years, although the Xiang family has always claimed to be the number one family in Heavenly Desolate City, and there are many disciples in the younger generations, it is a pity that in the past hundred years, the younger generation of disciples, the talent of martial arts cultivation is not as good as the generation, and they are under the age of thirty, and they can only find two people who are cultivated in the Seventh Heaven. Compared with the Su family and the Huangfu family, it is overshadowed.
It is precisely because of this that the gradually declining Xiang family realizes this, so they will win over the Qin family and help the Qin family quickly grow among the four major families in Tianhuang City, the purpose is to contain the Su family and the Huangfu family.
"It looks like we're a step too late. ”
Su Sheng has entered middle and old age, his eyes are restrained and calm, his bearing is calm and magnificent, but he has a bit of a restrained domineering atmosphere, and gradually approached Qin Heng and Xiang Jianxiong and the others, and chuckled ill-willedly.
And Huangfu was wearing a pale golden robe, and he couldn't see his joy and anger on the surface, but there was a domineering aura on his body, his eyes were full of ridicule and ferocity, and his aura around him was as sharp as a blade.
"The two of you are fine. Xiang Jianxiong looked straight ahead and smiled indifferently at the visitor.
Although the Xiang family has a hostile relationship with the Su family and the Huangfu family, they still have a friendly attitude on the surface, which is also the mind that the head of the family should have.
"Brother Su and I are fine, but Brother Xiang's white hair is full of color, it seems that he has been too tired over the years, my Huangfu's family has a kind of elixir to nourish the heart and calm the qi, I will ask someone to send it to the house another day. Huangfuji's tone was calm, as if he was concerned, but anyone with a discerning eye could see the meaning of his words.
"How dare you bother the head of the Huangfu family. Xiang Jianxiong refused with a smile.
"Compared to us, the head of the Qin family is really young and vigorous. ”
Su Sheng looked at Qin Heng next to him, compared to him, Qin Heng was a junior, he was in the prime of life, and he was not comparable to a few of their old guys.
"Where, where is it, the head of the Su family should always be strong, hehe. Qin Heng replied politely, but he secretly cursed in his heart 'old treacherous and cunning'.
The Su family and the Huangfu family have been secretly suppressing the Qin family, and of course Qin Heng is clear about these things.
Suddenly, a chill hit Lu Shaoyi's heart, and two sharp eyes fell on him.
Among the disciples of the Su family, Su Chun, who had suffered under Lu Shaoyi, stared at Lu Shaoyi with resentment, seeing that his expression did not eliminate the latter, and he would not give up.
Lu Shaoyi's eyes moved, and when he looked at the disciples behind Su Sheng and Huangfu Ji, he not only saw Su Chun, but also Huangfu Yulong.
Huangfu Yulong seemed to have noticed Lu Shaoyi a long time ago, and his gaze collided in an instant.
Huangfu Yulong couldn't see the slightest anger towards Lu Shaoyi on the surface, but a smile rose on his lips, with a sneering and disdainful evil smile, looking at Lu Shaoyi as if he was looking at a dying person.
Lu Shaoyi's heart sank, he naturally understood the hidden murderous intent under Huangfu Yulong's ill-intentioned smile.
He hadn't offended Huangfu Yulong before, so he was hunted down and killed by him for no reason, and now that he broke one of Huangfu Yulong's fingers, how could he let himself go?
Lu Shaoyi has already seen through the cruelty of the world he is currently in, and if he wants to survive, he must have enough strength and desire to become stronger.
He didn't have to wait long, but after about half an hour, an extremely sharp birdsong sounded from the sky without warning.
"Coffee ......"
The voice was harsh and long, and the people present panicked after hearing it, and subconsciously felt the crisis, and they all looked up at the distant sky in shock.
I saw that in the distant sky, four shadows were moving rapidly, and as the distance got closer and closer, the shadows of four huge birds and beasts came into everyone's eyes, and they were galloping towards the side of Heavenly Desolate City.
The birds flew extremely fast, and with each flap of their wings up and down, they rushed forward for miles.
"It's a flying bird and a monster!"
I don't know who shouted loudly, and everyone suddenly panicked.
Demon beasts walking on the ground are relatively easy to deal with, but if there are birds and demon beasts attacking, it will be much trickier.
