Chapter 144: After the Storm

In order to find a wishful husband for his daughter, and to find an ideal successor for the mission of the Shui family to be passed on from generation to generation.

As the head of the Shui family, Shui Hongzhuo came up with this place and sent an invitation to the world's young talents to recruit relatives.

However, only the first step test was carried out, and the mansion, which had been inherited for several generations in the Water Mansion, was directly destroyed.

When the cyclone made another noise, most people chose to run away.

However, Shui Hongzhuo and Shui Hongyuan, who heard the sound and thought of it, did not leave immediately.

After glancing at each other, they nervously looked in the direction of Shuifu, looking at the huge cyclone vortex that encompassed Shuifu, and there was a situation of less than catharsis to a point.

Just as the people of Water City were scattering and fleeing, the huge energy vortex suddenly gradually shrank, causing those who were panicking to stop and look back.

Soon, the outline of the Water Mansion was revealed, but at this time, the Water Mansion was already beyond recognition.

The grand and magnificent main gate tower has collapsed into ruins.

What makes everyone feel very strange is that almost all the buildings around the Shuifu compound have been razed to the ground, but many houses and buildings in the mansion are still standing calmly and upright in place, without the slightest trace of damage.

The energy of the cyclone vortex finally disappeared from the original enlightenment point of the martial arts training ground. However, including Shui Hongzhuo and other people from the Water Mansion, no one dared to enter first to check.

The scene just now is estimated to make many people unforgettable for the rest of their lives, such a scene, like the end of the world, makes everyone feel uneasy.

"Father, otherwise I'll go first and see the situation!"

The muscles on Shui Hongzhuo's face were tense, and he was hesitating, whether to go in to investigate the situation in person, and suddenly his daughter Shui Mengyan's soft words came from his side.

"No need, go in and have a look for your father, you better stay here!"

Shui Hongzhuo turned his head and without the slightest hesitation, he directly and categorically rejected Shui Mengyan's request.

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Shui Mengyan to open his mouth to fight, he turned around and jumped in the direction of Shuifu.

Seeing his father angrily, Shui Mengyan's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and her delicate body swayed slightly, and she followed along.

The father and daughter of the Shui family leaped towards the Shuifu compound one after the other, and the rest of the Shui family, after glancing at each other, although they were still uneasy in their hearts, the patriarch had already gone up, and they could only follow helplessly.

Shui Mengyan quickly caught up with his father, and when he saw her actually following, Shui Hongzhuo's brows furrowed unconsciously.

I wanted to open my mouth to drive her back, but when the words came to my mouth, I swallowed it back again, silently acquiescing to her behavior.

Jumping onto the ruins of the main gatehouse, Shui Hongzhuo's cheeks tightened even more, and his face was dripping with iron.

Although most of the houses were fortunately not destroyed by the cyclone, the entire water house was completely exposed in front of the streets of Water City, just like the houses connected to the streets of Water City.

Shui Hongzhuo looked at the Shui Mansion in front of him with a heavy heart, and the people of the Shui family behind him also followed.

At this time, Shuifu had completely recovered to a calm state, and when Shui Hongzhuo saw that the Shui family was following, he ordered everyone to look around to see if there was anyone who could escape from the cyclone.

Under Shui Hongzhuo's calm command, the apprehension in the hearts of the Shui family was also alleviated a lot, and soon everyone walked into the range of the Shui Mansion and began to look around to see if there was anyone who survived under the whirlpool.

Looking at the people of the Shui family, they all entered the water mansion one after another, and the people in the water city, as well as those who were invited to come from all over the world, also gathered to the water mansion again.

It took a whole day for the water house to finally be cleaned up. It's just that there is no longer the grandeur and mystery of the past, and everything is exposed to everyone in the Water City.

What made Shui Hongzhuo and all the powerhouses feel very strange was that Bai Yulu, the initiator of the whirlpool, actually didn't see anyone alive or dead.

The people of the Bai clan, under the leadership of Bai Ping and Bai Wu, almost turned over the Water Mansion, and they did not see any clues about Bai Yulu and Blue Crystal.

It wasn't until the sky was completely dark that the people of Shuifu and the Bai clan gave up looking for the two of them.

The disappearance of Bai Yulu and Blue Crystal made everyone speculate wantonly. Most people speculate that Bai Yulu and Blue Crystal must have been destroyed by the energy that destroyed the world and were directly smashed to pieces, and there was not even a corpse left.

This kind of statement is very marketable in the strength of Feng Chu Kingdom. Moreover, it seems that this kind of rumor is flowing from a certain force in the Fengchu Kingdom.

In less than two hours, this rumor spread in Water City. It made Bai Ping very strange what kind of purpose these people from the Feng Chu Kingdom would have for spreading such rumors.

Although Bai Yulu and Blue Crystal didn't have any clues, Bai Ping and the others always believed that there was no news that they were very safe.

In fact, although this rumor spread very quickly in Water City, it was only because Bai Yulu was the creator of this disaster.

In the hearts of many people, they also don't think that they have really been directly smashed by those so-called energy storms.

After all, among the two of them, Lan Jing was a real grandmaster powerhouse, which was a well-known thing. The ability of a strong grandmaster is not so easy, and he will die without even a trace left.

Among them, the one who showed the most righteous indignation was Wang Ben. When his Wang clan told him about this so-called rumor, the angry Wang Ben smashed the tea bowl in his hand and scolded the spreader for being suspicious.

After sorting out the water mansion, Shui Hongzhuo personally came to the door one by one and apologized to the strong people from all parties.

Of course, Bai Yulu's matter has become something that many strong people must ask about. However, Shui Hongzhuo's answer, of course, could only disappoint them.

In this way, all the powerhouses in the entire Water City spent one night in the Water City with curiosity.

At this time, Bai Yulu was in the enchantment realm of Longxian Spring, undergoing a promotion.

Early the next morning, at the invitation of Shui Hongzhuo, all the young talents and strong people who applied for the recruitment will continue the assessment and competition of Shuifu's son-in-law.

When I reached the martial arts training ground again, I couldn't see it anymore.

The martial arts training ground of five or six acres was completely empty at this time, and the previous cultivation hall and martial arts hall had completely disappeared, and what was left in front of everyone was just two ruined places that had been cleaned up.

In just one day, earth-shaking changes have taken place here, and all the strong people who have experienced a catastrophe are full of emotion.

All the people who came over, the first glance was to look at the place in front of Shui Hongzhuo and the other Shui family, and in that direction, it was the place where Bai Yulu created the sudden storm yesterday.

At this time, there was nothing empty there, and yesterday's stepping stone, I don't know if it was put away by the people of Shuifu, or in that storm of energy, it had disappeared.

After Shui Hongzhuo entered the range of Shuifu yesterday, he rushed here directly as soon as possible.

The stepping stone is one of the treasures of the Water Mansion, no matter what happens, Shui Hongzhuo does not dare to let him lose it in his hands.

When he hurried here, he saw which stepping stone was still standing quietly in place, and he felt a great sigh of relief in his heart.

However, when he got closer, he suddenly found that the stepping stone had changed a lot. On top of the originally smooth and reflective surface, dense graphics and texts appeared.

This stepping stone is surrounded by a black dragon, and the dense inscriptions in it are very clearly revealed.

Shui Hongzhuo read it carefully, and the shock in his heart could never be expressed in words.

He didn't expect that this stepping stone was actually the epitaph of the Black Dragon Clan, the winter official of the Emperor Fuxi.

In the epitaph, many important experiences and events in the life of the old man of the black dragon are recounted.

After reading this, Shui Hongzhuo suddenly came from the shock, hurriedly covered the stepping stone, and then ordered several family members to hide him deep in the undestroyed secret room of the Water Mansion.

Since the truth of the stepping stone was revealed, it was impossible for Shui Hongzhuo to take out the stepping stone again and let those young talents who did not have a stepping stone test.

For this reason, Shui Hongzhuo decided to directly test his martial arts, and let these young talents do a real game, and those who can stay in the end must be the highest.

When the strong people who were invited to come came came one after another.

Shui Hongzhuo apologized and deliberately raised the matter of the stepping stone to everyone first.

He lied that the stepping stone, in the storm created by Bai Yulu yesterday, it completely disappeared along with Bai Yulu.

Subsequently, he proposed to everyone that for this reason, only the young talents and strong people could display their skills, and wait for the judges of the elders of the Shui family.

Shui Hongzhuo's proposal was immediately approved by everyone, in such a continent where cultivators are on the edge of the world, only a fist that is hard enough is the true royal way.

Bai Ping had already taken the rank measurement yesterday, and in the face of most of the martial spirits, and even an opponent of a strong martial artist of the Zhongshan Sect, he had already planned to give up.

However, the rest of Bai Wu and the Bai clan expressed their opposition one after another. And, take out the order of the patriarch Bai Hao to suppress Bai Ping, and in desperation, Bai Ping had no choice but to join this competition.

The competition is very simple, people on the left and right sides can choose an opponent from the other side, as long as they can defeat the opponent, they will pass the competition.

Of course, on the contrary, the loser will completely lose the next opportunity.

Di Dunyu on the side of the Feng Chu Kingdom, after hearing the name of Bai Ping of the Bai clan, his heart was unconsciously happy.

At this time, Bai Yulu didn't know whether he was alive or dead, and as a three-turn martial spirit, he was just able to take out his anger with Bai Ping, a six-turn warrior.

For this reason, he first stood up and challenged Bai Ping.
