Red and white things were everywhere, the huge saber-toothed tiger corpse was constantly twitching on the ground, looking at the two people with strange eyes, Yue Mingsheng felt a chill in his heart. The second-order saber-toothed tiger is not the kind of demon beast with extremely high intelligence, but why, the resentment it carried before it died was similar to the fact that people do not look blind when they die.

Boss Wu was seriously injured, and after solving the saber-toothed tiger, he sat on the ground and panted violently, and the fear jumped on his face, and he was a little frightened.

"Little Brother Yue, is this your masterpiece?" he looked at Yue Mingsheng with a calm face, he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart, and asked, "You solved it alone?"

Yue Mingsheng smiled and didn't explain, this kind of adventure was enough once, and now he really felt that the strength gap between the first and second orders was too much that the technique could not make up. The opponent just now was a demon beast, what if it was a second-order martial artist? I'm afraid that no matter how hard I struggled on my own, it would be useless, and I would end up dead.

Skinned the tiger and dealt with the wounds of the black boss, and the two of them stumbled into the mountain. By this time, it was already afternoon, and the streets were bustling with people.

After selling the tiger skin, Yue Mingsheng got two gold coins, Boss Wu arched his hand, and said: "Little Brother Yue, don't thank you for your great kindness, I remember today's things, if you want anything another day, come to the city lord's mansion to find me, Wu will never give up." ”

"It's easy to say!" A seductive smile appeared on Yue Mingsheng's beautiful face, which made Boss Wu shudder, and after giving Yue Mingsheng a strange look, he strode away.

Yue Mingsheng smiled bitterly, touched his cheek and laughed at himself, "Is it that terrible?"

This time on the mountain, Yue Mingsheng felt that he had gained a lot, two gold coins were enough for him and the fifth uncle to live a prosperous life for a while, the most important thing is that the swordsmanship and hidden weapons have grown completely, and at the same time realize the specific difference between the strengths, the rest is to cultivate well.

There have been some qualitative changes in the dilapidated yard, the weeds have been treated to reveal the bluestone paved path, and the green smoke curls from the kitchen, and it seems that the fifth uncle is already making lunch.

Yue Mingsheng didn't bother, after returning to his room, he began to cultivate, with the previous battle, the degree of spiritual energy in Yue Mingsheng's body increased, this time it was easier to absorb, and the third meridian had already rushed away.

"Whew!" exhaled a breath of turbidity, Yue Mingsheng opened his eyes, the food was set on the table, it was still so simple and bitter, Yue Mingsheng sighed lightly, got out of bed and ate it. After eating halfway, the fifth uncle walked in, kindly examined him for a long time, and said, "Yes, it is stable to the third-level strength, and it has vaguely touched the edge of the fourth-level." ”

Yue Mingsheng smiled, did not deny it, took out the gold coins on his body and handed them to the fifth uncle, the fifth uncle was stunned, and was about to refuse, Yue Mingsheng said: "Fifth uncle, when I was growing up, this wild vegetable and rice soup would make me stunted every day, and besides, for so many years, our family's money is in charge of you, if I need it, I will naturally ask for it." ”

Yue Mingsheng knew the fifth uncle's thoughts, and after speaking first, he blocked the words, and the fifth uncle nodded and smiled after being stunned for a moment.

"You've grown up. The fifth uncle said affirmatively: "The day before yesterday, someone in the courtyard sent a letter asking you to attend the family meeting, and now it seems that you should go for a walk." ”

"Oh?" Hearing this, Yue Mingsheng frowned and said, "There is such a good thing?"

Family meeting, this is the routine of the four major families in Licheng these days, according to the previous memory, every year at this time, the city lord's mansion will select some outstanding talents in some spheres of influence and send them to the academy organized by the military to practice, which is not only in Licheng, but even the whole country is also a big event.

This is a world decided by force, between the thirteen realms of Kyushu, or between empires, wars frequently break out every year, leading to some martial arts families fighting for power and profit. Not to mention anything else, if there is one person in the Yue family who is an official in the court at this time, it will break the situation of the four major families in Licheng, and one side will be dominant.

For the city lord's mansion, this also has far-reaching significance, the grace of knowing is like rebuilding, and the party will soar in the future, the city lord will also be sheltered, and the authority will be more stable.

Yue Mingsheng was surprised to have Yue Mingsheng participate in this family meeting. Yue Mingsheng thought about it slightly, and his heart was clear. I'm afraid that this is a good banquet, I can get in, but I won't be able to get out in the future.

"Young Master, the decision is yours. The fifth uncle didn't force it, and said softly: "It's just that this world is very big, and the strong people in a state are like crossing the river, and there are countless of them, and you will be limited to this small city, and your vision will never be far away." ”

The fifth uncle can be said to have a hard conscience, the family's suppression of Yue Mingsheng is well known, not only the cultivation resources are not given a cent, but even some powerful martial arts cannot be accessed, at this time Yue Mingsheng's cultivation is still shallow, and there is no need to worry, but if Yue Mingsheng breaks through the third order, and even after reaching the fourth order, the fifth uncle will not be able to teach again, after all, his road has not gone far.

Yue Mingsheng nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take a look tomorrow." ”

How could Yue Mingsheng not understand that the little bit of caution in the family didn't understand, it was not about himself in the past, but now, the person they bullied was not the so-called rich second-generation Yue Mingsheng, if he really annoyed him, he would change his way to play with these guys to death, and even if he died, he would pull out the whip corpse and light the sky lantern.

If people don't offend me, I don't offend anyone. With such a big system as the underworld, Yue Mingsheng dared to resist, not to mention a family in Licheng.

Early the next morning, Yue Mingsheng came to the family meeting hall, the huge glazed tile house carved beams and painted buildings, the furniture is all made of nanmu, the main seat is luxurious, spread with mink blankets, and there are some people in the Yuemen who are next to the side sitting on the two rows of auxiliary seats, similar to Yue Mingsheng, the four generations of the family are not qualified to sit, and they stand respectfully in five rows in the lobby, standing with their hands down.

Yue Mingsheng stood quietly in the back row, and the disciples next to him looked at him and were stunned for a moment, his face was flushed, and he wanted to say something when he was shouted from the front: "The master of the family has arrived!" Yue Mingsheng glanced at him, a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, he naturally knew that this side disciple, named Yue Kunlun, cultivated to about the first and sixth orders, and cultivated to the top in the four generations.

The head of the family, Yue Tianlin, has sword eyebrows and starry eyes, a fair and handsome cheek, a mustache and is quite heroic, a slender figure, and his demeanor is quite popular, he is followed by several men and women of different ages, the first to bear the brunt is a glamorous and luxurious lady, silk brocade, gold and silver jewelry hanging all over her body, a pair of charming peach blossom eyes are watery, and the corners of her mouth are flushed with a confident smile.

Yue Mingsheng frowned and glanced at it, his body instinctively carrying a wave of hatred. This hatred was not Yue Mingsheng's original intention, it was led by the body. Even there was movement in the book of life and death, and he hurriedly sank down to watch.

"Chu Hanxiang, unchaste for his wife, uncle and sister-in-law adulterous, murdered her lover, and was sentenced to dip in the pig cage. ”

"Yue Tianlin, he was unkind to his uncle, disrespectful to his younger brother, sought power to usurp the throne and bullied his nephew and sister-in-law, and was sentenced to Ling Chi. ”

Yue Mingsheng gasped in his heart when he saw it, this is the punishment for committing a serious crime of humanity, this kind of sentence in the book of life and death can be described as extremely serious, according to the previous experience in front of the Wangxiang platform, I am afraid that after death, I will enter the eighteenth layer of hell, and suffer from skin cramps all day long, and I will never be able to live beyond my life.

But now he doesn't have much to do, not to mention anything else, this Yue Tianlin has reached the cultivation of about the sixth order, and he is a rare master in the family, as for Chu Hanxiang, which is the so-called stepmother, he has been protected by Yue Tianlin, and Yue Mingsheng is also looking forward to it.

After carefully recalling it for a while, Yue Mingsheng figured out the complex relationship of this family, Yue Mingsheng's father has thirteen brothers and sisters, five direct families, and six concubines, the old nature is Yue Mingsheng's father, Yue Tianlin ranks second, and the third uncle Yue Tianqi is a madman, so martial arts and idiots, he doesn't ask about the world, and there is no news after he ran away ten years ago, and there are even rumors that he has died. As for Chu Hanxiang, it is a concubine accepted by Yue Mingsheng's father, Yue Mingsheng's mother has always been in poor health after giving birth to him, ten years ago, that is, when Yue Tianqi left home, coughed up blood and died, since then Chu Hanxiang took the throne and gave birth to Yue Mingwei.

In fact, according to other rumors, this Yue Mingwei is not Yue Mingsheng's own brother, but the illegitimate son of this stepmother and second uncle.

"Today, continuing yesterday's discussion, I hope that the patriarchs will set the list of participants in this competition as soon as possible, so that their sons and nephews will have enough time to prepare. Yue Tianlin's magnetic voice came, his eyes scanning everyone, with majesty.

"The head of the family, I am a woman's family, but I still insist on yesterday's proposal to let Ming Sheng also join the list, after all, he is also your brother's heir. Chu Hanxiang smiled and took the lead in speaking.

Yue Zhengling, who was in his fifties, took the lead in objecting, and said: "The head of the family, this matter must not be done, Mingsheng is the heir of the head of the family and should be taken care of, but it is not trivial, once life and death are on the field, if Mingsheng has three long and two short, we are sorry for the dead family master, and we lost a place for no reason." ”

"The fourth brother is right, there are only three places for the four major families given by the City Lord's Mansion every year, if Ming Sheng has the ability, I will naturally agree, but ......" The patriarch of the other side echoed.

Chu Hanxiang raised her eyebrows there, looked at the two of them with a little anger, and finally set her eyes on Yue Tianlin, after all, the head of the family was not her. Surprisingly, Yue Tianlin didn't express his position immediately, he also frowned and didn't speak.

"Yes, family matters are decided by everyone, if the head of the family already has an idea, we will naturally support it, but this matter is very important, and it should be considered in the long run. Yue Zhengya added.

Yue Mingsheng laughed shamefully in his heart below, everyone dug holes with each other under the singing and harmony, Yue Tianlin naturally wanted to listen to Chu Hanxiang's words, and wanted to send him to a point of no return to prevent future troubles. But even if Yue Tianlin had this heart, he didn't dare to be too blatant, these patriarchs were also old and cunning, how could they not understand the little scandal of the main family? Everyone also grasped Yue Tianlin's psychology and maximized the interests of their own family.

For a while, everyone was talking and expressing their opinions, most of the more than ten patriarchs were opposed, and only a few were silent, looking at Chu Hanxiang, and then at Yue Tianlin, what was in their hearts.
