As early as when Zhou Chun was the patriarch of the Zhou family, he knew in his heart that there were still many secrets of the family that he didn't know.

For example, the matter of Zhou Daoyi and Lin Hongyu, he was only told after many years.

And now, after Yu Jinghua took the Spirit Beast Villa to Tianjing Gate, another secret of the Zhou family was revealed in front of him.

Zhou Mingde no longer hid it from him this time, and directly told him the biggest secret of the Zhou family.

According to Zhou Mingde, he was able to take Zhou Daoyi and others to come out independently and rebuild the Zhou family, but it was not because Yu Jinghua was kind-hearted and cared for the old feelings.

At the beginning, he was able to lead people to separate and become independent, completely because he had something to balance Yu Jinghua in his hands.

It turned out that when the ancestors of the Jindan period of the Zhou family chose to train Yu Jinghua to succeed him, they were also worried that Yu Jinghua might betray the Zhou family after he ascended the throne.

Therefore, before Yu Jinghua got married, the ancestor of the Zhou family made him make a heavy oath that he would not betray the Zhou family and harm the Zhou family in this life.

At the same time, after Yu Jinghua succeeded in marrying the Dan, he was forced to separate a wisp of Yuan Shen Origin and integrate it into a special magic weapon, and handed over the magic weapon to the Zhou family monks.

Later, when he moved to Yasukuni, that magic weapon fell into the hands of Zhou Mingde, and it became the biggest reliance for him to dare to lead people to separate and become independent.

According to Zhou Mingde, as long as he urged the special magic weapon that was integrated into Yu Jinghua's wisp of Yuan Shen Origin to wear out that wisp of Yuan Shen Origin, Yu Jinghua himself would suffer a heavy blow.

This kind of heavy damage was enough to make it difficult for Yu Jinghua's cultivation to advance in this life, and it would also make him suffer great pain all the time because of the damage to the origin of the Yuan Shen.

It is precisely because of this means of balancing Yu Jinghua that Zhou Mingde dared to use the cultivation of the early stage of the Purple Mansion to lead people to separate and become independent.

It is also because of this method that after Zhou Chun found out that Zhou Zhengkang was bewitched and betrayed by the monks of the Spirit Beast Villa, Zhou Mingde dared to come to the door to ask for an explanation after cleaning the door in person.

It is still because of this that Yu Jinghua has never dared to do anything to the Zhou family over the years, and has even restrained the monks of the Spirit Beast Villa, not allowing them to target the Zhou family.

Even in recent years, the Zhou family has risen all the way and become more and more prosperous, while the Spirit Beast Villa has been declining day by day, and Yu Jinghua has only disappeared and has never made any small moves.

Zhou Mingde originally thought that this situation would continue until a Jindan monk appeared in the Zhou family, or Yu Jinghua fell.

But at this time, after hearing that Yu Jinghua brought the Spirit Beast Mountain Villa to join the Tianjing Gate, Zhou Mingde realized that the balance he had been trying to maintain had been broken.

With Tianjing Zhenren, a real person in the Yuan Infant Period, as a backer, Yu Jinghua no longer has to be afraid of the Zhou family at all.

And the current situation of the Zhou family, unless it is a last resort, Zhou Mingde will definitely not dare to risk losing both sides to destroy Yu Jinghua's wisp of Yuan Shen Origin.

"If the old man is not bad as expected, I am afraid that in a few days, Yu Jinghua's family will come over to have a showdown with the old man, asking for the withdrawal of his wisp of Yuan Shen Origin!"

"And he must have dedicated all of my Zhou family's imperial beast inheritance to the Tianjing True Person and the Tianjing Gate now!"

When Zhou Mingde said this, his words were full of resentment.

And after Zhou Chun listened to his story, he also fell silent.

Zhou Chun felt strange before, since Yu Jinghua had actually betrayed the Zhou family, why would he allow Zhou Mingde to take people to run away?

If he was taught a lesson by the ancestor of the Su family, Zhou Chun might still think that Yu Jinghua was worried that the iron-blooded suppression of Zhou Mingde and others would cause those Zhou family monks who were willing to follow him to stay.

But after being taught a lesson by the ancestor of the Su family, Zhou Chun deeply knew that once the Jindan period monk made up his mind to do something, he would not care about any criticism at all.

So he also guessed that maybe Zhou Mingde had some handle in his hand, forcing Yu Jinghua to compromise.

Now Zhou Mingde has recounted it, which can be regarded as confirming his guess.

At this time, seeing that Zhou Chun didn't speak, Zhou Mingde was also worried that he would think too much, so he took the initiative to explain: "Originally, I didn't tell you about this matter before, because this matter is very involved, in order to avoid angering Yu Jinghua's family, the less people know, the better!" ”

Speaking of this, he shouted angrily with an angry face: "I didn't expect the old man's kindness, but that guy didn't appreciate it at all, and he had to force the old man to such a point!" ”

Listening to his words, it seems that some kind of decision has been made.

"Then what are you going to do, Elder Taishang?"

Zhou Chun took the opportunity to ask the words.

"Of course, hand over that thing to Qinglian Guan!"

"Did he Yu Jinghua think that if he took refuge in the Yuan Infant Monk, everything would be fine? Don't! ”

Zhou Mingde's face was ruthless, and he hated and said his plan.

I didn't want Zhou Chun to hear what he said, but he immediately shook his head and said, "The junior thinks this matter is inappropriate!" ”

After speaking, he explained: "Even if Qinglian Guan accepts that thing, it will most likely not provide the highest level of protection to our Zhou family, but our Zhou family may have evil the Tianjing Zhenren, a Yuan Infant Cultivator, because of this!" ”

"What do you mean ......?"

Zhou Mingde's face changed, and his eyes looked at Zhou Chun with a little unwillingness.

"The younger generation thinks that since the situation has changed so far and has become like this, we shouldn't expect too much."

"If Yu Jinghua comes over to ask for that thing, we can take advantage of the situation and let him exchange it for the treasure!"

"I think for the sake of his own path and life, as long as the conditions are not too harsh, he should be able to accept it!"

Facing Zhou Mingde's gaze, Zhou Chun calmly expressed his opinion.

"Then what if he pretends to agree first, and then turns his face and denies the person after the things are in his hands?"

Zhou Mingde did not rush to express his position, but he said another concern.

When Zhou Chun heard this, he said with a determined face: "No, he took the Spirit Beast Villa to Tianjing Gate, he has already offended Qinglian Temple, if he dares to attack our Zhou family again, it will be to give Qinglian Temple a knife to kill chickens and monkeys!" ”

These words were reasonable, and Zhou Mingde was quickly convinced.

Therefore, although he was still a little unwilling and angry in his heart, for the sake of the family, he still sighed lightly: "Okay, then do what you say!" ”

The matter was really guessed by Zhou Mingde.

On the third day after the Zhou family learned that the Spirit Beast Villa had taken refuge in the Tianjing Gate, Yu Jinghua sneaked into Jiufeng Ridge alone and came directly to Zhou Mingde's cave.

"I haven't seen you for many years, Mingde is okay!"

When Zhou Mingde walked out of the cave, he saw Yu Jinghua looking at him with a smile on his face and took the initiative to say hello.

"Thanks to the blessing of the people, Zhou and the Zhou family have always been very good!"

Zhou Mingde replied coldly, turned around and walked directly into the cave.

Seeing this, Yu Jinghua was not angry, but followed in with a bigger smile.

He knew from Zhou Mingde's attitude that it should not be difficult for him to achieve his goal today.

To be honest, he was actually afraid that Zhou Mingde would be impulsive and hand over the magic weapon to Qinglian Guan.

Therefore, he has been squatting around Jiufeng Ridge for the past few days.

That artifact was infused with a wisp of his primordial divine origin, and it had the closest connection with him, and he could easily sense its location by it.

If Zhou Mingde really took things out of the Zhou family's mountain gate on the spur of the moment, then he could only show up and forcibly intercept them.

Fortunately, what he feared most did not happen.

Next, in Zhou Mingde's cave mansion, Yu Jinghua and Zhou Mingde had a fierce bargain.

In the end, the two still reached an agreement, and Yu Jinghua paid several treasures of the Zhou family that were greedy for ink at the beginning, in exchange for his own wisp of Yuan Shen origin.

"Look, this is the final result of the old man's bargaining with him!"

In the cave mansion on the top of the mountain, facing Zhou Daoyi and Zhou Chun, who obeyed his summons, Zhou Mingde didn't say much, and directly took out the gains obtained after the negotiation.

As soon as he shook his hand, he took out the four treasures and put them on the table.

The four treasures are a milky white jade pendant the size of two fingers, once this thing is taken out, it automatically begins to gather the aura of the surrounding heaven and earth, and the rich aura flows around it, manifesting a white aura, and the end is very supernatural.

The second treasure is a ruler-long magic rune, the complexity of the spiritual patterns drawn on this talisman is the only one Zhou Chun's life has seen, and the heavy spiritual patterns outlined on it with exquisite brushwork make Zhou Chun feel a little dizzy just by staring at it a few more times.

And even if this talisman is not activated, it will gather the aura slightly, emitting a dazzling fiery red halo.

The third treasure is a broken pale yellow flag, the surface of the flag seems to be missing most of it, and the remaining part of the banner is imprinted with countless tiny runes, which looks very mysterious and mysterious.

The fourth treasure is a rune treasure with a cyan spear pattern on it, which is an offensive rune treasure.

At this time, after Zhou Chun and the others looked at the four treasures on the table for a while, Zhou Mingde began to distribute these things.

I saw him raise his hand and wave, and the milky white jade pendant was picked up by him and moved to Zhou Chun.

"This piece of Lingyuan jade will be worn and used by you in the future, this thing is a strange thing obtained by an ancestor of my Zhou family, it is said to be made of a piece of spiritual eye jade, wearing it around has a strong spirit gathering effect, which can greatly improve the efficiency of cultivation."

"It's just that this item is precious, and it is only useful for cultivation, so if you leave the family in the future, it is best to leave it at your residence."

I heard that it was a treasure that could improve the efficiency of cultivation, so Zhou Chun was not welcome, he really needed such a treasure to assist him at the moment.

When he stretched out his hand to take the thing and put it in a jade box, he didn't forget to thank him: "Thank you Elder Taishang for your kindness, then the younger generation will keep this thing on behalf of the family!" ”

Treasures like Lingyuan Baoyu are often non-privatizable public property within a family, and can only be distributed according to need, to those who need it most and who need it most.

Therefore, Zhou Chun is only keeping it on behalf of him now, and has no right to dispose of it.

Then I saw Zhou Mingde raise his hand and wave it, and took the talisman into his hand.

"As for this fourth-order talisman, let the old man keep it first."

Fourth-order talismans are also very precious things, but to use this kind of treasure, early Purple Mansion monks like Zhou Daoyi are a little reluctant.

Only Zhou Mingde, who was already a mid-stage cultivator of the Purple Mansion, could normally urge the use of treasures of this level.

Therefore, it is most appropriate for him to keep it.

Then Zhou Mingde's eyes looked at the broken flag again, and said slowly: "Although this imperial spirit flag is a broken thing, it is the origin of the family's imperial beast inheritance, representing the most orthodox inheritance of the family, so it will be enshrined in the ancestral hall to honor the ancestors!" ”

The inheritance of the Zhou family's imperial beast was obtained by the ancestors of the Zhou family from an ancient cave mansion.

And now Zhou Chun and the broken flags in front of them are exactly what the ancestors of the Zhou family brought out from the Ancient Xiudong Mansion together.

It is said that this object is a powerful magic weapon, but it is too broken to be sacrificed and driven.

Now it is also a symbolic thing, symbolizing the orthodoxy of the Zhou family.

Something like this, enshrined in the ancestral shrine, is of course the best way to dispose of it.

Finally, Zhou Mingde's eyes looked at the talisman treasure again.

After looking at the thing and muttering for a while, he finally said: "As for this talisman treasure, leave it to Daoquan, he is sitting alone on the side of Longxing Valley, and he really needs such a treasure to defend himself!" ”

After speaking, he looked at Zhou Daoyi and asked, "Daoyi, what do you think?" ”

"The juniors have no opinion, compared to the juniors, the Daoquan clan brother really needs this thing more!"

Zhou Daoyi bowed slightly, and agreed with his disposition opinion.

"Then so be it, you will personally send this thing to Daoquan."

Zhou Mingde said, and took the talisman treasure and handed it to Zhou Daoyi.

After completing the treasure in this way, he let the two of them leave.

After Zhou Chun returned to his residence, he immediately took out the piece of Lingyuan Jade and tested it.

He wore Baoyu on his chest and meditated as usual.

As soon as he settled down, all the rich heaven and earth aura gathered by the Lingyuan Baoyu was absorbed into his body.

After some meditation and cultivation, Zhou Chun was pleasantly surprised to find that the effect of his meditation and cultivation this time was at least half better than before he got the Lingyuan Baoyu.

In other words, if he wears the Lingyuan Jade to cultivate now, his cultivation speed will increase by fifty percent compared to before.

It's a huge improvement, and it's really gratifying.

"Great, in this way, maybe it won't take ten years, and I will be able to break through to the late stage of foundation building!"

Zhou Chun clenched his fists vigorously, his face full of joy.

However, Zhou Chun's side was not happy for long, and the appearance of an incident suddenly made him frown deeply.

"The Jingyang faction colluded with Zhengyang Palace to declare war on the Corpse Demon Sect?"

Looking at the eagle news from Yunzhou from the Intelligence Hall, Zhou Chun couldn't hide his surprise and opened his mouth wide.

Although he had previously felt through his own experience in Fengguo, he felt that Fengguo was likely to be chaotic again.

But I didn't expect this chaos to come so quickly and in such a form.

He recalled the power of Zhengyang Palace in his mind, but found that he hadn't heard much of it, and it was probably not the power of several nearby countries.

But daring to help the Jingyang Sect deal with the Corpse Demon Sect, this is definitely not an ordinary force, at least it has to be a force of the level of the Moon Wheel Sect to dare to do so!

"That's a mess!"

Zhou Chun rubbed his head, and could only take the news to the Cave Mansion on the top of the mountain again.

The first one is sent!
