In the dim cave, a light suddenly gathered on the stone platform, and between the faint vibrations of the space, two figures emerged from the light.

After experiencing this kind of teleportation again, Zhou Yuan's head was also dizzy, and he kept rubbing his forehead to relieve the discomfort.

"Yuan'er?"

When the light dissipated, a surprised voice also came from the front, and Zhou Yuan looked up and saw Zhou Qing standing in front of the stone platform, looking at him with a happy face.

"Father." Zhou Yuan said with a smile.

"You stinky boy, you're really scared to death of your father!" Zhou Qing stepped forward quickly, his eyes were full of eagerness, most of the time ago, he saw Zhou Yuan disappear on the stone platform, but he was a little surprised.

Zhou Yuan saw Zhou Qing's expression, and also knew that Zhou Qing should be worried to death here, so he was immediately a little embarrassed, scratched his head, and hurriedly said: "Father, my eight veins have appeared!" ”

"What?!"

Zhou Qing's body shook, and his palm hurriedly slapped on the latter's shoulder, and a source qi invaded Zhou Yuan's body, probing for a while.

After a few breaths, Zhou Qing learned the result, and immediately his palms couldn't help but tremble, and he patted Zhou Yuan's shoulder excitedly.

"Okay, good, it's really the ancestors' blessing, the sky will never stop my Zhou family!" Zhou Qing's voice was a little vibrato, his eyes were moist, you can imagine how excited he was at this time.

Zhou Yuan's inability to open his pulse to practice has always been a pain in his heart, in his opinion, it was his incompetence as a father back then, so that Zhou Yuan was robbed of his luck by the martial ancestor when he was born, and he became what he is today.

He searched for all the means, but he couldn't get Zhou Yuan to open his pulse, so he could only pin his last hope on the secret words circulated by their Zhou family.

But now it seems that God still favors their Zhou family.

Zhou Yuan looked at Zhou Qing, who had always been calm and majestic, revealing this appearance in front of him, and there was also warmth flowing in his heart, he stretched out his arms, gently patted Zhou Qing's broad back, and said with a smile: "Father, don't worry, what our Zhou family lost, we will get it back!" ”

Zhou Qing restrained some of his emotions and nodded heavily, and at this time, he saw Zhou Yuan behind him, there, a girl in green clothes, standing pretty, holding a gray little beast, looking at them with clear eyes.

"Yuan'er?" Zhou Qing looked at Zhou Yuan, confused, obviously not knowing why Zhou Yuan would bring out a mysterious girl when he came back.

Seeing this, Zhou Yuan told Zhou Qing what he had encountered in that mysterious space.

When Zhou Qing heard this, he pondered for a while, and said: "Since our ancestor of the Zhou family will leave a secret message, it should be that he has intersected with that black-clothed senior, and you have received the favor of that senior, so you have to fulfill the entrustment of that senior." ”

After speaking, he showed a gentle smile at the girl in Tsing Yi and said, "This little girl, if you have no place to go, you can stay in our Da Zhou, here, we will definitely guarantee your safety." ”

Hearing this, he tapped his head lightly, and his voice was soft and indifferent: "It's troublesome." ”

"No trouble, no trouble." Zhou Qing smiled and waved his hand, and then said to Zhou Yuan: "Since your problem has been solved, then we are also ready to go back to Great Zhou City, your queen mother has been waiting for news." ”

Zhou Yuan also nodded, he also wanted to tell Qin Yu the good news immediately.

The three of them followed the secret passage, walked out of the cave, and walked out of the ancestral hall on the top of the mountain.

Zhou Qing went to order the forbidden army to set off, and Xiao Xiao was holding a small beast named Tuntun, standing on the edge of the cliff, looking at this strange world with beautiful eyes.

The breeze blew her clothes, outlining the delicate curves, and at the same time making the girl look a little lonely and cold, only the swallow in her arms, making a chirping sound to comfort her.

"Sister Yao, you don't have to worry, Master has great powers, he will be fine, and we will definitely be able to see his old man again in the future." Zhou Yuan walked to Xiao Xiao's side and said softly.

He knew that no matter how quiet and indifferent he was, he was still a little uncomfortable when he arrived in a strange place.

Xiao Xiaomei glanced at him and said in a low voice: "Grandpa Hei will drive me away, I know it's because a great enemy is coming to the door." ”

"Those enemies should be coming at me, and Grandpa Black helped me block them."

Although Cang Yuan had never told her this, she still keenly felt that those disasters should have been caused by her.

Zhou Yuan scratched his head, he didn't know the identity background of the two, so he didn't know what story was hidden inside.

"Sister Yao, maybe things are really as you said, but I think you shouldn't feel sorry for yourself now, otherwise, you will fail the master's hard work, and whatever he does will lose its value." Zhou Yuan said slowly.

Xiao Xiaoyu's hand gently stroked the soft hair, she looked into the distance, and immediately showed a shocking smile at Zhou Yuan, nodded slightly, and said: "Don't worry, I'm not that kind of person, I will find out everything in the future, when the time comes, if Grandpa Hei has any accidents, I will definitely help him take revenge, none of those people can escape." ”

Her voice was calm and cold, but the coldness contained in it made even Zhou Yuan shiver slightly.

This young lady looks like a little fairy, but once she gets serious, she seems to be quite decisive in her bones.

…

Great Zhou Palace.

When Qin Yu learned the news that Zhou Yuan's eight veins could be cultivated, he was so excited on the spot that he hugged Zhou Yuan and kept shedding tears, which made Zhou Yuan moved and helpless.

"Okay, okay, it's a good thing that Yuan'er can cultivate, why cry." Zhou Qing on the side was also helpless.

"Didn't you cry?" Qin Yu rubbed his eyes and glared at Zhou Qing.

Zhou Qing touched his nose a little embarrassed, and when he sensed the appearance of eight veins in Zhou Yuan's body in the cave, he almost couldn't help crying, but he was suppressed alive.

"You can arrange it for you first." Zhou Qing didn't dare to say more, and quickly diverted the topic.

Qin Yu knew that someone was watching next to him, and he wiped away his tears with some embarrassment, and then showed a gentle smile at Xiao Yao, and said, "Xiao Yao, you will only live here in the future, and we will definitely not let you suffer the slightest grievance." ”

Qin Yu's attitude towards Xiao Yao was extremely enthusiastic, although it came more from their gratitude for Zhou Yuan's help, but obviously she also liked Xiao Xiao a lot, after all, such a clear and beautiful girl, anyone who saw it would be happy.

Xiao Xiao is a little uncomfortable with Qin Yu's enthusiasm, after all, she has lived in an isolated place with Cangyuan since she was a child, and she has never been in contact with outsiders at all, and she has a slightly cold personality and is not very good at communicating with people.

However, she could feel Qin Yu's gratitude and sincerity from the bottom of her heart, so she didn't show too much resistance, just glanced at Zhou Yuan, and let Qin Yu pull her away.

Qin Yu left first, Zhou Qing and Zhou Yuan glanced at each other, and they both smiled helplessly.

"Your Majesty, the Lord of Chu Mansion asks to see you!" At this moment, there was a report from the guards.

And the lord of the Chu Mansion is the lord of the Great Zhou Mansion, Chu Tianyang, who is also the right-hand man under Zhou Qing.

"Let him in." Zhou Qing nodded, then looked at Zhou Yuan, who was about to retreat, and said, "You also keep it, you are also our Highness of the Great Zhou, and you should know something." ”

Zhou Yuan was stunned for a moment, and didn't say much, just nodded.

At the gate of the inner hall, a sturdy figure stepped forward, It was a middle-aged man in a purple shirt, his face was resolute, and between walking, it seemed that there was a wind rolling and whining.

"I've seen the king." The purple-shirted middle-aged man bent over and clenched his fists at Zhou Qing, then looked at Zhou Yuan on the side, nodded and smiled: "Your Highness." ”

"Mansion Master." Zhou Yuan didn't dare to slack off, Chu Tianyang was an important minister, he was deeply trusted by his father, he was his right-hand man, and he was also the lord of the Great Zhou Mansion.

Zhou Qing smiled and waved his hand, "What's the matter?" ”

When Chu Tianyang heard this, he first glanced at Zhou Yuan on the side.

Zhou Qing smiled: "It's okay, let him listen." ”

Chu Tianyang nodded, then sighed with a wry smile, and said, "Your Majesty, Xu Hong is now eyeing my position as the head of the mansion." ”

Zhou Yuan on the side was slightly heartbroken, Xu Hong, who is now the deputy lord of the Great Zhou Mansion, but this guy is on the side of the King of Qi, and he often disobeys the Yang of the Great Zhou royal family.

In the past, Zhou Yuan knew that the King of Qi had coveted the Great Zhou Mansion for a long time and wanted to control it, so he had been secretly encroaching on it, and this Xu Hong was placed in by him in various ways to try to seize the position of the lord of the Great Zhou Mansion.

"Your Majesty, according to the news I got secretly, that little prince Qi Yue is in the Great Zhou Mansion, constantly coercing and luring the outstanding students who appeared in the Great Zhou Mansion at a very high price."

"In this big exam alone, more than half of the students who can squeeze into the top ten have been co-opted."

"And once these students pass the big exam, they will directly choose to enter Xu Hong's second institute, after the big exam, it is the government examination, in the past two years, the overall quality of the students of the second academy is higher than my first institute, they have already achieved the first place in the second government examination, if they succeed this time, Xu Hong will have an excuse to make trouble and seek to seize the position of the lord of the mansion."

When Zhou Qing established the Great Zhou Mansion, in order to motivate the academies, he set the rules, which academies can maintain the first place in the government examination for three years, and he can run for the head of the house.

Originally, Chu Tianyang's A Academy was the strongest, but later a Xu Hong emerged, and with the support of King Qi's strong financial resources, he continued to win over those outstanding students, so the original A Academy was the strongest, but it has been suppressed by the B Academy for the past two years.

Obviously, that Xu Hong is going to the lord of the Great Zhou Mansion, and once he becomes the lord of the mansion at that time, then the Great Zhou Mansion will probably fall into the hands of the King of Qi, and those outstanding talents who continue to emerge will be intercepted by the King of Qi, which is simply cutting bones and digging meat for the royal family.

Moreover, the most important thing is that if King Qi's plan succeeds this time, it will make many wait-and-see forces think that the royal family is in decline and can no longer fight with King Qi, and once those forces are thrown into King Qi, it will be devastating.

Zhou Yuan frowned and looked at Zhou Qing, and at this time, the latter's brows were also twitching slightly, and after a long time, there was a gloomy voice, slowly spit out from between his teeth.

"This King of Qi is really a big appetite!"
