Chapter 166: Turning the Tide, The Beginning!
At just a glance, the high-level officials of the Zhou family all showed satisfaction.
The young man in front of him was neither humble nor arrogant, neither pampered nor frightened, and he could not see the arrogance and arrogance after his meritorious service, and he was even better than they imagined.
"Well, it's really different from when I left home, it's like two people, no wonder I can make such a great achievement. ”
The one who spoke was the internal affairs elder Zhou Yu, who was nearly sixty years old, but because of her profound cultivation, her face was still in her forties, and she could still vaguely capture the charm of her youth.
"Grandma Yu has won the prize. Zhou smiled.
"It's a great achievement that you can defend the stronghold of the Qingxiong Gang for your family in the Eternal Night District. You were originally a third-grade core disciple, but now you have been promoted to a first-grade core disciple, and you have the qualifications to enter the first-class source energy field, the family secret realm, and the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion at any time. The head of the family, Zhou Yunxiong, stroked his beard and paused: "It is rumored that you were favored by Xiaoyao Houjun and accepted as a student, but is there such a thing?"
The students of the Marquis of Xiaoyao?
Zhou Xiao shook his head: "There is no matter." ”
"It's ...... like this" A faint disappointment flashed in Zhou Yunxiong's eyes, and he was fleeting, and said with relief: "It's okay, my Zhou family's Dao Gong has been cultivated to the later stage, and with martial arts, the power is equally powerful." Keep a motivated heart, continue to work hard to practice, and you can step down. ”
After speaking, the head of the family, Zhou Yunxiong, had already shifted his attention to the secret report at hand, and the other elders also thought about their own questions, whether about the breakthrough in cultivation or about the current situation.
The Zhou family is facing such a grim situation, and they are also busier than before, if it weren't for Zhou Xiao's meritorious service, they would not have been summoned to go home this time.
At this moment, Zhou Yu, the elder of internal affairs, suddenly called out to Zhou Xiao: "Zhou Xiao, what realm are you now?" Could it be that you have broken through the Taoist realm?"
"Hehe, Benjun thought they wouldn't ask, a bunch of elm heads. Tell them, scare them to death!"
The cat poked its head out of Zhou Xiao's shoulder.
Ever since entering the Tiger Roar Hall, Zhou Xiao felt that a special energy field had faintly emerged from the cat's body surface, maintaining its physical body in a wonderful invisible state.
"Daoist Fourth Order. Zhou Xiao told the truth.
"Daoist Fourth Order. Well, not bad...... What!Fourth Order?" Internal Affairs Elder Zhou Yu was stunned, leaned out of the Dao energy field, enveloped Zhou Xiao, and cautiously investigated.
"It's really a fourth-order Taoist, a fourth-order Taoist priest who is less than fifteen years old. A moment later, Zhou Yu's cheeks flushed.
The four heads of the family, Zhou Yunxiong, were also alarmed, and they all poked out of the Dao energy field.
The next moment, the faces of the four of them were full of surprise.
"Okay, good, I didn't expect that a cultivation genius would appear in our generation in the Zhou family!"
"With Zhou Xiao's cultivation, he is already qualified to become a leading disciple. It's all about his natural potential. Pity...... It's just at this time. Law enforcement elder Zhou Hengxing sighed.
"Yes, if you can give Zhou Xiao an extra year or two, Feng'er won't have to support the younger generation alone. The head of the family, Zhou Yunxiong, gradually regained his composure.
His grandson, Zhou Yunfeng, who is now the first leading disciple of the Zhou family, has cultivated to the seventh rank of a Taoist priest.
The five scepters of the Zhou family looked at Zhou Xiao and were full of regret. Zhou Xiao's talent potential surprised and even shocked them. Despite this, it did not play any role in the current crisis of the Zhou family.
No matter how big the potential is, it will take long enough. will be realized into strength.
"Regarding Zhou Xiao's cultivation, it is temporarily concealed. Wait until there is sufficient protection and the time is right, and then announce it to the public. Zhou Yunxiong, the head of the family, said.
Zhou smiled. My Zhou family's exercises are invincible and fast, and only by cultivating to the later stage of each realm can I truly comprehend the subtlety and power in it. You need to be cautious in your practice, and don't think about taking shortcuts. Wait until the three tribes have passed the ritual. Elder Ben will test you personally. Elder Zhou Hengyang reminded very seriously.
While encouraging the senior management of the Zhou family, they also warned Zhou Xiao not to be proud and continue to maintain a modest attitude. When the Zhou family gets through the difficulties, it will be the time for him to shine.
Zhou Xiao wanted to mention the Zhou family's Daogong several times, but he was either interrupted or the words were wrong. The high-level officials were in a hurry, and after a few hurried words, they asked Zhou Xiao to go back to rest.
Until Zhou Xiao left the Tiger Roar Hall, he didn't find a chance to speak.
A cat's sneer rang in his ears.
"Save it, even if you say it! They won't listen to you! Their minds have been solidified, and it's not for you to say it! They will only think that you are proud and complacent, and you are bent on taking shortcuts!"
"The head of the family has something to do tonight, and I will report to the head of the house tomorrow. Zhou Xiao said lightly.
"Zhou Xiao, don't you understand, even if you are a genius enough in their eyes. They will only think that you have achieved something and try to change the ancestral exercises. In short, it's thankless. The cat sneered and shook its head.
......
In the dead of night, most of the children of the Zhou family had finished their cultivation and returned to their respective residences.
Zhou Xiao also returned to his former place of residence...... The core disciples scattered in the Hequan Bamboo Forest.
Along the way, he also met several children of the Zhou family who were familiar with him in the past, and he also had a better understanding of the crisis that the Zhou family is facing now.
Ancestor Zhou Liechen competed for the mysterious lottery in the Fengyun gambling game, but he was plotted, suffered a big loss, and his cultivation was unstable.
However, the head of the Wu family was born in the Fengyun gambling game, showing the amazing cultivation of the middle of the eighth order of the Taoist master.
His hand can be said to have caught the Zhou family off guard, not only winning the right to compete for the mysterious Caitou for the children of the Wu family, but also making the Ying family, the Lin family and other forces in Langya City ready to move.
There is less than a month and a half left before the sacrifice of the three tribes.
The most eye-catching part of the three clan festivals is that the younger generations of the three major families and their affiliated families in Langya City will compete and compete at the ceremony.
And the mystery lottery will also decide the final ownership at that time.
The ranking of the younger generation has a far-reaching impact and determines the prestige and future potential of the family.
But what really affects the fate of the Zhou family is another tradition in the ritual - family challenges.
If you belong to the family scepter, you can "ask for advice" from the scepter of the main family.
The scepters of the three major families can also "consult" each other.
It's called asking for advice, but it's a challenge.
In the past, when the ancestor was not injured, he was recognized as the first person in the three major families!
Zhou Liechen, the ancestor of the Zhou family, although he is old and has passed his prime, can be cultivated to a profound level, his martial arts skills are extraordinary, his Dao realm is transcendent, and he is on the list of the southeast country, and there are few opponents in the entire Tianfeng Kingdom, and he is almost invincible in Langya City! Who dares to "ask for advice" from the Zhou family?
However, before this year's three-clan ritual began, the Wu family could no longer hold back, frequently breaking the family rules, and extending their hands to the subordinate forces and industries of the Zhou family.
The Wu family has the support of the Ying family, and the Lin family also has the momentum of leaning towards the Wu family, and a storm that is about to change the pattern of Langya City is brewing.
The monks of Langya City knew that at this year's Three Clans Ceremony, the Wu family would definitely challenge the top leaders of the Zhou family, which would directly determine the master-slave relationship between the two families, and even the survival of the Zhou family.
......
In the dark night, Zhou Xiao sat cross-legged.
A star map gradually emerged in the spiritual sea of his mind, and the route of the stars in the picture was the route of the ancestral Dao Gong.
Although he doesn't like to hear what the cat says, it is not unreasonable.
He was able to cultivate the complete Dao Gong because his body was able to withstand and refine star energy. Except for him, no one in the Zhou family has this potential in the eyes of cats.
Tens of thousands of years ago, the Eight Desolation Tiger Divine Monarch who swept the world and the world, no matter whether its boasting was true or false, but it was also an existence that had lived for 10,000 years, and it had never left the formation diagram that evolved from the Zhou Family Daogong for 10,000 years, and the understanding of the Zhou Family Daogong was deep in the bone marrow.
If it says it can't, it can't.
"What about cats?"
Zhou Xiao's eyelids jumped suddenly.
After entering Shouxing Peak with him, the cat has been making a fuss, curious everywhere, everything is fresh, rubbing around, and I don't know where to go at this time.
He signed a fairy net contract with the Eight Desolation Tiger Divine Monarch, and he was subordinate to the main cat, and as soon as his mind moved, he sensed the cat.
"You're stealing it, and you're still eating roast snow chicken! You're a cat!"
"Still drinking? I get drunk? This wine can even put down a large bone beast in an instant and not wake up for half a year! Dead cat! Come back to me!"
"Wow...... Where is this?"
In his spiritual thoughts, Zhou Xiao saw Houfeng and had never been to the lakeside orphanage.
Not to mention having been there, he has lived in Shouxing Mountain for so many years, and he didn't know that there was such a place.
Some slightly drunk cats were sitting cross-legged on the wall, shaking their heads, pointing at the purple-robed old man in the courtyard who was outstanding and scolding.
Zhou Xiao invaded Zhoujiaxian.com and quickly found the corresponding information.
The forbidden land of the Zhou family requires the permission of the Scepter to be opened? This dead cat is going to cause trouble!
Zhou Xiao jumped up, threw himself into the night, and swept towards the back peak. (To be continued.) )
