Du Erye saw that his brother, that is, the current head of the Du family, was entangled in trivial matters, and there was no way to meet Shi Qiang and the two of them, so he proposed to let his nephew lead the expedition team of their Du family and Shi Qiang and the two of them to have a discussion, which was not in the way, first, it was also to make the two sides have some understanding of the strength of the opponent, and on the other hand, they could delay for a while to see if they could meet, so they took these people to the training ground of the Du family. This training place has been specially reinforced, and some formations have been arranged here to prevent the training ground from being damaged due to excessive shots.

Because Second Master Du knew the cultivation of Shi Qiang and the two of them in advance, when he saw that Shi Qiang made a move in the first battle, he chose a half-step Transformation Realm cultivator on his side to fight against him, because in the eyes of Second Master Du, this Shi Qiang would not reach the Transformation Realm even if he was powerful, but he didn't count Wang Lun behind Shi Qiang, it was a completely lifeless master, in order to increase the combat effectiveness of his team, in order to be more sure of the expedition, he was stunned to forcibly retreat Shi Qiang and Gong Xiangdong, and gave them high-quality cultivation auxiliary materials, This made Shi Qiang's cultivation all the way forward, and in the end, he was stunned and should have helped Shi Qiang to withstand the nine tribulation thunders, so that Shi Qiang's cultivation directly broke through the Transformation Realm and became a master of the fourth layer of the Transformation Realm. It is precisely because of the loss of this piece of information, plus that he has become an ally, it is a bit rude to perceive it, so before the battle, the second master did not know Shi Qiang's current cultivation.

It was precisely because of the loss of this piece of information that the half-step shape-shifting cultivator who was called out by Du Erye, who claimed to be invincible below the Transformation Realm, was stunned and didn't survive five rounds in front of Shi Qiang, and the third one was kicked out by Shi Qiang by grabbing the loophole, and fell to the ground unconscious. Of course, this is the result of Shi Qiang's failure to burst out with all his strength at the beginning, because he is not familiar with the use of elements in the transformation realm, so he deliberately lowered his strength, otherwise, this guy would not be able to hold out to the third face, and he went to see the Lord of Yama directly in one face, you know, although he claims to be an invincible opponent below the transformation realm, but Shi Qiang is in the middle of the transformation realm, and the suppression of the realm is quite obvious, and the two of them fight, that is, adults are bullying children, and they are not on the same level at all.

Faced with such a result, Gong Xiangdong and Du Erye, who were watching the game from the sidelines, showed two completely different expressions, (I personally feel that it should be more appropriate to use opposite expressions.) Gong Xiangdong looked like I knew, or he had such an expression from the beginning when he entered this training ground, and he didn't pay much attention to this contest at all, but ran to the side to rest. On the other hand, Second Master Du opened his mouth wide in surprise, the mouth was open enough to fit a whole egg, he didn't expect anyone to progress so fast, if he knew Shi Qiang's true cultivation now, it would be even more surprising. Shi Qiang's excellent performance also made some waves in the psychology of Du Shaojun, who had always regarded himself as a genius who was watching the battle from the sidelines, and he couldn't understand it at all now, with his talent, he could be regarded as proud of the entire Houtu City, but why would he lose to an ordinary casual cultivator.

In order to alleviate the embarrassment, and there is no need to continue to compare, this person is already considered to be the best in their own team, so they were easily beaten down, and the rest were given for nothing, so Du Erye terminated this time, which had no meaning at all, and let Du Shaojun take the rest of the team back to his residence to continue the retreat until he set off, and he took Shi Qiang and the others back to his residence, and the time happened to be noon, so Du Erye ordered his subordinates to prepare wine and food, The three of them pushed the cup at the dinner table, drank happily, but no one was drunk, just when they were chatting happily, they heard the sound of footsteps outside the door, a family ran in, told the second master of the family to arrive, the second master quickly got up and let the head of the family enter, that is, his brother, the four of them sat down, the head of the family took the lead in speaking, and did not play any official tone, went straight to the topic, after his description, Shi Qiang and the two of them have a further understanding of this mysterious cave, The information they got before didn't seem to be accurate, it wasn't that there were no pioneer expeditions entering the interior, and there were basically teams from all major families going in and coming out, but these people were surprisingly consistent, they were all very taboo about the mysterious cave, and they didn't even want to mention anything in it, as long as they were asked about the things inside, they would behave abnormally, and their mouths kept saying that they were terrible, and the rest didn't say anything.

It is precisely because of this reason that all the big families in Houtu City are surprisingly unanimous, and all of them claim that their stall has all been destroyed in the mysterious cave and have not survived, and even in order to cover up this matter, the Ming family took the lead and gathered all the expedition members who came back together, and used an ancient god array to completely erase the memories of these people about the mysterious cave, edit one other memory, and then send them all home, even if someone asks, There won't be any problems, and even once they are caught by hostile people, it is completely impossible to ask relevant clues, this is still the best result that the Ming family has won against public opinion, because the Hua family has put forward the idea of killing all these people, because the Hua family feels that no method is as good as a dead person can keep secrets, but the Ming family thinks that so many people, they are all the combat power of Houtu City, which can be regarded as high-end combat power, once lost, it is not so simple to cultivate, And there was no way to get so many cultivators in a short period of time, so they vetoed this proposal with one vote, and of course, in order to activate the Ancient God Array, the Ming family also lost a lot of resources.

Shi Qiang and the two of them didn't expect that there were so many stories in this at all, so they couldn't react at once, let alone the two of them, even the second master who was listening to it didn't react, because it was the first time he heard his brother talk about it, let alone him, that is, all the people in Houtu City, only the heads of the fourteen families knew about it, and the rest didn't know about it, which shows how high the degree of secrecy of this matter is, and it also reflects from the side that this family really has no reservations about them. Shi Qiang naturally understood the kindness of the head of the Du family, and got up and hugged his fists, "The master of the Du family, this matter is very important, I can't promise anything here, because my team is not up to me, I am not the captain, the captain did not come here to meet you because of some delays, otherwise, I will go back to my captain about this matter, see how he decides, and I will give you an accurate answer tomorrow, what do you think?" ”

The head of the family naturally heard the second master of the capital say this, "I understand, but please pay attention to the two of you, what I just said must not be publicized, because at this time it is related to the lives of everyone in my family, at the beginning, the heads of our clans swore to the sky with a Taoist heart, and never leaked this matter, I told the two today that this matter has actually broken the original promise, even so, I think it is better to let the two of you know, because after all, the stakes are very high, in case there is really something terrible or dangerous in this cave, I don't want to see my life in danger because of the lack of information, so I ask you not to publicize it. ”

"The master of the capital family can rest assured that although my brother does not have any foundation to speak of, but this promise is to be done to the end, so you don't have to worry about us telling this matter, if you still don't believe it, we can swear to heaven with a Taoist heart." said that Shi Qiang was about to swear, but was stopped by the head of the Du family, "I think it's okay to swear, since I said it, I naturally believe in the two brothers, and at the same time, I don't want the next generation of my family to die in it, if I say this, I still have a little selfishness." ”

"Then in this case, I will leave first, and tomorrow I will visit again, and then we will discuss specific matters and leave!" Shi Qiang and Gong Xiangdong hugged their fists at the head of the Du family, which was a temporary farewell to the Du family, and when they came to the street, the two of them looked at each other, and then pretended to walk forward carelessly, but when they came to an intersection, they suddenly scattered left and right, and at the moment they dispersed, a team of ten black-clothed people appeared at that intersection, and then immediately divided into two teams and chased them out in two directions. And it was Gong Xiangdong who felt it, so when the two of them had to walk behind later, Gong Xiangdong had already told Shi Qiang about it, Shi Qiang guessed that this should be the person who was staring at the movements of the Du family, and it was very likely to be a member of the ten major families, this is a family that is not convinced by each other, and it also has a hand for other families, don't look at some families seem to have formed an alliance to advance and retreat together, it is just an expedient measure, there will be no real alliance at all, and this incident was provoked by the Du family, Then the Du family will naturally be focused on, and Shi Qiang and the two of them coming out of the back door naturally attracted the attention of those people, and tracking must be inevitable.
