In the bamboo forest, the gentle breeze blows down the turquoise bamboo leaves.

Li Min secretly glanced at Zhang Ruochen, pursed his lips, slightly nervous, and said, "It is taboo to talk about the young patriarch, once outsiders hear it, they will be severely punished." Zhang Ruochen released the space realm, covering a radius of ten zhang, enveloping Li Min in it, and then said: "Now, no one can hear our conversation, tell me, what is going on?"

Li Min didn't know what methods Zhang Ruochen used, but after all, Zhang Ruochen was a demi-saint, and since he said that no one could hear their conversation, outsiders would definitely not be able to hear it.

"It's not a secret, in fact, two hundred years ago, the patriarch of the Ancient Clan was not the current patriarch. Rather, Shi Ren's grandfather, Shi Mingyuan, is also known as the old patriarch by us. ”

Zhang Ruochen remembered the name "Shi Mingyuan", and to be able to become the patriarch of an ancient clan, he must not be an ordinary person.

Li Min looked colorful, and said: "At that time, Patriarch Shi entered the fifteenth layer of the Netherworld Dungeon, closed the death pass, and attacked the Saint King realm. If everything goes well, it will only take three years at most, and Patriarch Shi should be able to successfully break through the realm.

However, Patriarch Shi was in retreat on the fifteenth floor of the dungeon for thirty years and did not come out. As a result, many people speculated that Patriarch Shi failed to attack the realm and had died in the fifteenth floor of the dungeon. ”

"Naturally, it is impossible for the ancient clan to be without a patriarch all the time, so at that time, Wang Beilie, the head of the Wang family, quickly became the new patriarch because of his profound cultivation and strong skills. ”

On the day he succeeded the patriarch, Wang Beilie personally promised that as long as the patriarch Shi was out of the customs, he would immediately step down from the position of patriarch. At the same time, he also personally canonized the eldest son of the Shi patriarch as the young patriarch. As long as the young patriarch's cultivation breaks through to the Holy Realm, he will immediately abdicate and make way for Xian. ”

Zhang Ruochen nodded lightly and said, "In other words, the young patriarch at that time was Shi Ren's father?"

"That's right. Li Min said.

Zhang Ruochen asked, "So, Shi Ren's father, has he hit the Holy Realm?"

Li Min's eyes looked around, obviously, he was still quite worried about being overheard, and made sure that outsiders couldn't hear their conversation, so he said again: "Shi Ren's father, he almost reached the holy realm, but unfortunately, at the last critical moment, he went crazy and turned into a murderous monster with blood-red hair all over his body. ”

"On the night of the full moon, he rushed into the gathering place of the Jinzu people, killed many innocent people, and in the end, it was the current patriarch who took action to suppress him and imprison him in the Netherworld Dungeon. ”

"This matter has always been a forbidden topic in the clan, and I only learned about it when I overheard the conversation between the two ancestors. ”

Zhang Ruochen felt a little strange and asked, "Shi Ren's father, is he really crazy?"

"Actually, I don't think it's right. You must know that the Shi family majors in spiritual power and runes, even if it is a person who has become a saint in martial arts, he also has a strong willpower, not to mention that Shi Ren's father is a character who has become a saint of spiritual power, and it is even more impossible to go crazy.

Li Min blinked a pair of beautiful big eyes and asked in a low voice, "Zhang Ruochen, do you think it could be that Wang Beilie used some shady means to cause such consequences." After all, he is the biggest beneficiary of the whole incident. ”

"You little girl, you are a little bold, you dare to call the patriarch by his name. Zhang Ruochen said with a smile.

Li Min's apricot eyes widened, obviously a little dissatisfied with the title of "little girl", straightened her chest slightly, raised her snow-white chin, and said: "I'm already sixteen years old, where are I still young? You are not much older than me, why do you call me a little girl?"

Zhang Ruochen looked her whole body up and down, then shook his head and smiled, and said, "Do you know how powerful the Sage's senses are? Fortunately, it is inside the Spatial Realm, if it is outside, even if it is thousands of miles away, if someone pronounces the name of the Sage, he will hear it." ”

"Humph!"

Li Min clasped his hands in front of his chest, flattened his lips, and said, "You asked me to tell you the secrets of the clan, but now, on the contrary, you want to discipline me, I shouldn't have told you so much if I knew it." Before, this little girl still pretended to be very reserved, like a weak girl who was erudite and talented.

Since she and Zhang Ruochen went to Vientiane County once, she has never used her reserve to disguise herself, revealing her arrogant side.

Actually, Zhang Ruochen didn't mean anything else, just reminding her.

In case she accidentally said the wrong thing and offended the patriarch of the ancient clan of Zhenjiao, the other party only needed one thought to kill her silently.

According to some of the things that Li Min said before, Zhang Ruochen always felt that Wang Beilie, the current patriarch of the ancient clan of Zhenjiao, might not be a good man and a woman.

To be exact, how many people who can be in high positions are not full of blood?

Even the mighty and virtuous Female Holy Emperor didn't kill her fiancé, and I don't know how many living beings she slaughtered before she sat down in her current position?

Zhang Ruochen's palm touched his chin, his eyes became a little sharp, and said, "After Shi Ren's father was imprisoned in the Netherworld Dungeon, Shi Ren became the new young patriarch?"

"That's right. ”

Li Min seemed to be speechless and said, "But...... When the young patriarch broke through the half-saint realm, he almost died. ”

"What the hell is going on?" asked Zhang Ruochen.

Li Min said: "I don't know what is going on. It is said that not long after the young patriarch broke through the half-saint realm, he was assassinated by the undead blood clan, but it was the young patriarch's wife who used her life to help the young patriarch block the mortal blow, and the young patriarch survived. ”

Shi Ren went to the underworld with the heart of death, just to find the elixir to save his wife. It can be seen that the relationship between their husband and wife must be extremely deep.

If so, it is really Wang Beilie, behind the scenes, planning a series of events.

Then, Shi Ren and the Wang family can really be regarded as a deep hatred. At the same time, Shi Ren's current situation is probably also walking on thin ice, killing everywhere, and if he is not careful, he will be doomed.

Xiao Hei lay on the ground, pinched a jade-white thousand-year-old shouwu in his paws, ate it without a bite, and said, "The water in the ancient clan of Zhenjiao is really not ordinarily deep. Zhang Ruochen, this emperor thinks that it is better to leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible, otherwise, with your current cultivation, how can you fight those old guys?"

Zhang Ruochen shook his head and said, "Now, even if we want to leave, I'm afraid we won't be able to leave!"

At this moment, Zhang Ruochen sensed something, raised his head, and looked in the direction of the bottom of Zhujie Mountain.

At the foot of the mountain, a white cloud appeared, enveloping most of the mountain.

"Why is it foggy all of a sudden?"

Li Min walked to the edge of the cliff and looked down, feeling a little surprised.

Zhang Ruochen said: "That's the Holy Soul, the Holy Soul, mobilized the aura of heaven and earth, and gathered towards Zhujie Mountain. ”

Even with Zhang Ruochen's current realm, he only showed the eye of heaven to see more than a dozen figures in the clouds and mist.

The dozen or so figures were walking towards the top of Zhujie Mountain.

At the same time, the monks in the clouds and mist also noticed Zhang Ruochen's gaze and used their spiritual power to lock him.

Immediately afterwards, a loud cheer sounded from the white clouds, "Zhang Ruochen, I didn't expect you to hide in the Hades Sword Shrine, look at you this time, where else can you escape?"

A crimson figure rushed out of the clouds and mist, passed through layers of formation barriers, and soon reached the top of the mountain and appeared opposite Zhang Ruochen.

This person is very strong, three meters tall, wearing a simple battle armor, exposing his abdomen, arms, legs, a thick chain around his waist, and stepping on a pair of silver-scaled combat boots.

It's none other than the giant scorpion king of the military department, the wind bird.

Zhang Ruochen was at the border of Qingli County, and when he attacked the tenth change of the fish dragon, he was besieged and killed by the seven masters of the military department. Wind fowl is one of them.

There was no nonsense, the speed of the wind bird was as fast as the wind, and in an instant, he rushed to Zhang Ruochen's face, clenched his fist with five fingers, and hit Zhang Ruochen's chest.

The distance is too close, but the speed of the wind bird is also amazingly fast.

Therefore, Zhang Ruochen couldn't dodge at all, so he could only hard-connect.

"Dragon's Calamity. Zhang Ruochen's palm appeared with dense golden dragon scales, gushing out crimson flames, colliding with the fist of the wind bird.

The fist of the wind bird, integrated with the rules of fist and wind way, is not only infinitely powerful, but also can shatter the rules of the holy path between heaven and earth, and the power that erupts is naturally superimposed.

Zhang Ruochen's palm technique is already a stunt, and it also has the rules of the palm path and the rules of the fire path.

The fists and palms intersected, and a powerful hedging force was immediately formed, shattering all the green bamboos within a radius of ten zhang and turning them into powder.

Fortunately, there were many defensive formations arranged in Zhujie Mountain, so the power that erupted from the battle between the two demi-saints was controlled within a certain range and did not spread out.

Zhang Ruochen retreated to ten zhang away in a row, and only then did he dissolve the strength of the wind bird and stabilize his footsteps.

The wind bird stood still in place, stared at Zhang Ruochen in a little surprise, and said, "It is only the realm of a first-order semi-saint, and it can block this king's one-hundred-battle bull demon fist." Losing the blessing of the Pure Extinguishing Divine Fire, your strength is still very strong, no wonder you dare to attack Ziyong Pass. But how many punches can you block?"

Zhang Ruochen moved his five fingers, mobilized the holy qi, and entered the meridians in his arm, dissolving the pain.

Just when Feng Bird was about to strike again, Li Min, who was standing on the side, shouted: "Stop...... This...... This is the Hades Sword Shrine, even if it is a member of the military department...... You can't break the rules. Whoever breaks the rules is the enemy of the Ancient Clan. ”

Originally, Li Min was still a little afraid of the identity and cultivation of the wind bird, but as he spoke, for some reason, he was no longer afraid, and straightened his slender waist. (To be continued.) )
