Lending five million lower grade spirit stones, earning the favor of a Yuan Infant Monk for nothing, this investment Zhou Yang felt very cost-effective.

Those spirit stones are left in his hands, and they are of no great use for the time being, and the Zhou family's large spirit stone mine has been mining, if he really needs to use a large amount of spirit stones for something, just go back to the family.

Moreover, Bailu Zhenren also said that this loan must be repaid within three hundred years, and Zhou Yang believed that the other party's dignified Yuan Infant Monk promised in public that he would definitely not repay the debt in this regard.

Even for him, three hundred years later, he may be married to a baby, and even if Bailu Zhenren really dares to repay the debt, he will have the ability to come to the door to collect the debt in person.

So when he lent this huge amount of money, he didn't panic at all, and he wouldn't have the same worries as most borrowers, who were afraid that people would not repay the money.

So after the auction ended, he calmly waited for the monk in the auction hall to send the [Fire Phoenix Xuandan], [Gengjin], [Pregnancy and Baby Pill] and other things he bought, and took out the spirit stone to make a delivery with it.

As he expected, the auction house didn't criticize him too harshly for missing a high-grade spirit stone, but just asked him to take out 50,000 low-grade spirit stones as a deduction, and the missing high-grade spirit stone would be deducted from the handling fee at their auction venue.

This method of delivery made it so that no one knew that he had purchased the treasure of the [Pregnant Baby Pill] except for the auction monk who made the delivery with him.

What's more, when he was making the delivery, he also deliberately changed his appearance with a disguise mask, not afraid that others would see his true face.

And after the delivery was completed, he went directly to the VIP channel and left the auction hall through the teleportation array.

"Zhou Daoyou's deeds, the old man has heard a lot in the past few years, Daoyou can do such a big thing at a young age, and the future is limitless!"

In an attic, Zhou Yang and Bailu Zhenren, the creditors and borrowers, sat opposite each other, drinking tea and talking.

After Zhou Yang lent the spirit stone that day, Bailu Zhenren took away the five million spirit stone loan he had prepared directly through the hands of the monk in the auction house, and then until today, he had time to invite him to come over to meet him as a thank you.

At this time, hearing the praise of the other party, Zhou Yang did not pretend to be a creditor at all, and responded very humbly: "I don't dare to praise the seniors so much, compared with the real people like the seniors, the juniors are just children who have just learned to walk!"

When Bailu Zhenren heard this, he smiled faintly and said: "Xiaoyou is too modest, it is true that there is a big gap between the Jindan period and the Yuan infant stage, but it is not as big as what you say, Xiaoyou, and even if Feng Mou does not believe in his own vision, he will definitely not doubt the vision of his predecessors!"

Since he borrowed Zhou Yang's spirit stone and promised Zhou Yang a favor, of course, he wanted to investigate Zhou Yang's identity in detail afterwards.

And it's just that the information he has collected in the past few days has surprised him very much.

As a Yuan Infant Stage Monk, of course he understood how powerful a Yuan Infant Nine-Layer "Half-Step True Immortal" like Lu Xuanji was, and Zhou Yang was able to make this deceased Yuan Infant Nine-Layer Monk take a fancy to him, and his potential was already obvious.

In particular, this time, Zhou Yang directly lent him five million lower grade spirit stones, which showed a shocking financial strength.

Such a young Jindan monk who wants a background and money will definitely have a much smoother path in the future than the vast majority of Jindan monks.

Bailu Zhenren even suspected that the buyer of the "Pregnant Baby Pill" was Zhou Yang, but there was no evidence to confirm it.

Of course, it didn't matter to him whether he could confirm this matter or not, as long as he was sure that Zhou Yang was not the kind of treacherous villain with bad character, he would be relieved.

I saw him wave his hand, took out a cyan jade pendant token and threw it to Zhou Yang and said: "Feng Mou is a talker, if you have anything difficult to solve in the future, you can use this token to go to Luming Valley to find Feng Mou, as long as it is not the kind of request to let Feng Mou and the monks of the same level fight to the death, Feng Mou will definitely not refuse!"

Zhou Yang came to see him, wasn't it just for this sentence?

Immediately, he didn't have any excuse at all, and immediately took the jade pendant and pinched it tightly, and assured with a straight face: "Please rest assured that the juniors will not use this thing in the future, and they will definitely not use this thing easily, let alone let the seniors be in danger because of the juniors." ”

With your words, Feng is relieved. ”

Bailu Zhenren bowed slightly, very satisfied with his assurance.

Then he waved his hand and said: "Okay, Feng is still in a hurry to go back to the sect to refine the newly arrived magic weapon, so I won't accompany you Zhou Daoyou, the five million spirit stones that I owe you, Feng will also send people to the door in batches to repay Daoyou in the future, and there will never be a missing spirit stone for Daoyou." ”

When Zhou Yang heard this, he immediately got up sensibly and saluted: "Then the juniors won't bother the seniors, and the juniors will retire." ”

After that, he said goodbye and left, and returned to the temporary cave house in the immortal inn.

In this way, he stayed in the Xianzhan Cave Mansion for three or four months, and it was not until all the monks who came because of the big auction had dispersed for a long time that Zhou Yang left the Jade Capital City and returned to Chongxuan Mountain.

After returning to Chongxuan Mountain, Zhou Yang first handed over the elixirs and other things he bought to Daoist Xiao Ying, and then he took the test of those newly recruited registered disciples, and then prepared to return to the Boundless Sand Sea Immortal Cultivation Realm.

Last time Zhou Guangxiang used Zhou Shengyu to calculate his affairs, he never forgot it, and this time he went back to deal with this matter.

In addition, he promised Zhou Ronghua and others that he would bring these people back to his family, let them return to their hometown, and let the monks of the whole clan know about their contributions and sacrifices in the battle against Xuanshan.

Of course, the most important thing is that he wants to return the [Jade Liquid Golden Pill] and [Purple Heart Chalcedony] exchanged for merit points back to the family, so as to appease the hearts of all the monks of the family.

This trip home was just for errands, and there was no need to stay for a long time, so Zhou Yang did not take Taoist Xiao Ying back with him.

And for the sake of safety, he also specially sent messages to Qingyang Zhenren and Liu Yunxiang of Suyun Sect, asking them to come to the rescue immediately once they received a message for help from Chong Xuanshan.

In the end, in order to facilitate Xiao Ying's escape from Chongxuan Mountain in a dangerous situation, he also left the two fifth-order spirit birds, the Golden-winged Thunder Eagle and the Colorful Peacock, to be in order.

After everything was ready, Zhou Yang said goodbye to Daoist Xiao Ying, and left Chongxuan Mountain with Zhou Ronghua, Zhou Rongxiang, Zhou Sheng, and the three Zhou family foundation cultivators, and returned to the boundless sand sea to cultivate immortals.

Without the Golden-winged Thunder Eagle to fly, Zhou Yang made his own fifth-order low-grade flying magic weapon [Thunderbolt Golden Light Divine Shuttle] to hurry, and under his full strength, the flight speed was no worse than that of the Golden-winged Thunder Eagle.

It's just that this magic weapon can't hide its whereabouts, and it can only be used before entering the Broken Cloud Mountain Range.

After arriving at the Broken Cloud Mountain Range, Zhou Yang had to put away this magic weapon and change it to a fourth-order flying boat magic weapon to fly.

This fourth-order flying boat magic weapon also has a certain stealth effect, although it is not as strong as the "Phantom Cloud Boat" he left for the family, but it is better than him flying away from the clouds.

Zhou Yang has walked this road many times, and it is an exaggeration to say that he can fly back with his eyes closed, but basically nothing will happen.

Especially now that his strength has increased greatly, even if something happens, he can easily deal with it.

There was nothing to do all the way, and a month later, Zhou Yang returned to the Zhou family's base camp on the Rhino Horn Island Oasis.

When the ancestor of the family who had been away from home for many years came back, the monks of the Zhou family who got the news were naturally overjoyed, and those monks in the foundation building period rushed to the Rhino Horn Island Oasis to make a pilgrimage to the ancestor of the family.

Who in the Zhou family doesn't know that this family ancestor has always been generous, as long as he can get into the eyes of his old man, he can enjoy some things casually, and he can save himself more than ten years, or even decades.

This is exactly what Zhou Yang wanted, and he even asked Zhou Guangxiang and Li Mubai, who rushed to hear the news, to drive two large empty ships to Lingshan in various oases to pick up people, and bring as many people from the Zhou family as possible to the Rhino Horn Island Oasis.

At the beginning, the monks of the [Six Dao Alliance] attacked Chongxuan Mountain and Chang Kingdom, bringing a lot of large empty ships, after Zhou Yang killed those Jindan period monks, he got a total of three, in addition to leaving one for Taoist Xiao Ying to spare, the other two were also brought back this time, ready to be handed over to the family for use.

Before the other clansmen rushed to the Rhino Horn Island Oasis, the matter of commending Zhou Ronghua, Zhou Rongguang, Zhou Sheng and the three of them could be put aside for the time being.

Zhou Yang directly called Zhou Guangxiang to the cave on Lingxi Peak to talk.

"Do you know why I'm coming back this time?"

In the cave mansion, Zhou Yang looked at his nephew in front of him, who already had a slight trace of gray hair, and he was about to question the other party with sharp words, but suddenly changed his tone.

He seemed to remember at this time that Zhou Guangxiang was no longer young, compared to the 480-year-old Shouyuan limit of the monks of the Purple Mansion Period, Zhou Guangxiang, who was already more than 360 years old, could be said to be a middle-aged person and began to enter old age.

"My nephew knows. ”

Zhou Guangxiang glanced up at Zhou Yang, lowered his head again, and replied in a low voice.

"I originally hoped that I guessed wrong, but after knowing that you had already given the [Purple Heart Chalcedony] I gave you to Tongxuan to use, I was truly disappointed in you!"

Zhou Yang sighed with disappointment on his face, and his eyes were full of pain.

Zhou Guangxiang handed over the [Purple Heart Chalcedony] he gave to his son Zhou Tongxuan to use, naturally he wanted to push his son to the Purple Mansion Period, and rightfully took over the position of patriarch from him.

But unfortunately, his son did not have the same luck as him and his sister Zhou Guangxiang, and despite the help of [Purple Heart Chalcedony], he ultimately failed.

When Zhou Guangxiang heard his words, his body shook slightly, and then he knelt directly on the ground with a "poof", bowed deeply to him and said: "A thousand mistakes, they are all the fault of the nephew, no matter how you punish the nephew, the nephew is willing to bear it." ”

"Rewards and punishments are clear, this is the basic principle of governing the country and governing the family, even if you are the patriarch of the Zhou family, even if you are my most trusted and favored nephew, I will not bend the law for personal gain!"

"It's not a fault that you gave [Purple Heart Chalcedony] to your son Zhou Tongxuan, after all, this is your own family contribution point to exchange from your family. ”

"But in order for your son to inherit the position of patriarch, you drove the genius children of the family out of the family and abused power for personal gain, but the evidence is conclusive!"

"According to the rules of the family, those who commit the crime of abusing power for personal gain will be punished with a fine of staying in office, or deprived of their positions.

Zhou Yang looked deeply at his nephew kneeling on the ground, and every word was like a heavy hammer, hitting Zhou Guangxiang's heart hard, making his body tremble endlessly, and he didn't dare to raise his head to look at him.

This shows that he is indeed ashamed in his heart, and he is indeed afraid.

Seeing this, Zhou Yang continued without moving at all: "Originally, although you used your power for personal gain, after all, you did not cause any major consequences. ”

"But as the patriarch, you should be an example for the monks of the whole clan, but now you are taking the lead in breaking the rules, if you are only punished lightly like this, how can you convince the public?"

"Therefore, as the Supreme Elder of the family, I will punish you by depriving you of the position of the patriarch and exiled to the Immortal Cultivation Realm of Liuyun Continent for a hundred years!"

"Zhou Guangxiang, are you convinced?"

Zhou Yang said that in the end, his voice suddenly raised a lot, and the thunderous shouting like Hong Zhong Da Lu suddenly exploded in Zhou Guangxiang's ears.

Zhou Guangxiang's body trembled, and finally raised his head, and said with tears in his eyes: "My nephew is convinced, my nephew is ashamed of the family, I am ashamed of my ninth uncle, and my nephew is convinced!"

"What are you crying about? The eldest husband dares to act boldly, sheds blood without tears, since you knowingly commit a crime, you should naturally be mentally prepared to bear the consequences!"

Zhou Yang shouted angrily, flicked his sleeves, and left the cave directly.

Of course, he understood in his heart why Zhou Guangxiang was crying and why he was crying.

Since the establishment of the Zhou family, there has never been such a patriarch who has been deprived of the position of patriarch because of his past.

In the past, the patriarch of each generation of the Zhou family was either replaced by a successor after his death, or like Zhou Minghan and Zhou Yang, he passed the position of patriarch to the outstanding children of the younger generations during his lifetime.

Zhou Guangxiang, as the longest-reigning patriarch of the Zhou family, should have become a model for every Zhou family to imitate in the future, and a family ancestor respected and revered by the younger generations of the Zhou family.

But because of this incident, he became the first patriarch of the Zhou family to be removed during his tenure, leaving a stain in his life that is difficult to erase.

His fate will also serve as a living example to warn those who succeed the patriarch not to think that they can do anything wrong by ascending to the position of patriarch.

From the example that future generations followed to the negative example used by future generations to warn themselves, this gap can be imagined.

It is normal for Zhou Guangxiang to regret crying because of this.

And in order to let this nephew learn more lessons, Zhou Yang did not tell him at this time that he decided to let his son Zhou Tongxuan take over his idea of being the patriarch.

Naturally, before this order was officially announced, Zhou Guangxiang was still the patriarch of the Zhou family.

In the following days, when the monks of the Zhou family in various places were in a hurry to go to Rhino Horn Continent to meet Zhou Yang, the ancestor of the Zhou family, Zhou Yang himself left Rhino Horn Continent and went to the mountain gate of Huangshamen.

This time he went to Huangshamen, and Zhou Yang's purpose was to end the cause and effect of the year.

"This is a [Jade Liquid Golden Pill], in order to exchange for it, Zhou Mou killed three Golden Pill Stage Cultivators in the Liuyun Continent Immortal Cultivation Realm in a row!"

"Today, in front of Senior Cao, Zhou fulfilled his promise to hand over this thing to you Huangshamen, hoping that you will use it for your own use. ”

In the Huangshamen Mountain Gate, in the cemetery of the ancestors of the previous dynasties, Zhou Yang, accompanied by Xu Jinyao, the current head of Huangshamen, after sweeping the tomb of Cao Wenjin, took out a [Jade Liquid Golden Pill] in front of the tomb, raised his hand and handed it to Xu Jinyao, completing his promise to Cao Wenjin back then.

When he was still a monk in the foundation building period, Cao Wenjin invested heavily in him and funded him and their Zhou family to develop and grow.

Today, he also repaid the other party's original investment and kindness several times.

After that, the friendship between him and Huangshamen was completely broken.

In the next one or two hundred years, he will continue to fulfill the original agreement to protect Huangshamen for five hundred years, but he will no longer help Huangshamen do anything beyond the agreement.

"The great kindness of the seniors of Zhou, the juniors and the Huangshamen are all grateful, Patriarch Cao has a spirit in the sky, and he will definitely thank his predecessors for this!"

In front of the tombstone, Xu Jinyao held the jade bottle in his hand, bowed deeply to Zhou Yang, and expressed his gratitude with excitement and excitement on his face.

He thought that he might not be able to get this treasure during his reign.

Because he often asks himself, if it were him, for the sake of the sect, he would never hand over this kind of treasure that could create a Jindan period monk to an opponent who might threaten the existence of his sect before the expiration of the five-hundred-year agreement.

Cao Wenjin's original agreement with Zhou Yang was only for him to find a [Jade Liquid Golden Pill] for Huangshamen if he was able, but he was not given a time limit.

If Zhou Yang was ruthless, he could have handed over this thing to Huangshamen before the consummation of the five hundred years period.

At that time, even if someone in their Huangshamen can rely on this thing to succeed, they will no longer be able to pose any threat to Zhou Yang, who is no longer restricted by the contract.

Even if Zhou Yang was more vicious, he could just give them the [Jade Liquid Golden Pill] on the front foot, and wait for the five hundred years period on the back foot, and immediately turn over and destroy their Huangsha Gate and regain this treasure.

By that time, their Huangsha Gate has been destroyed, and this boundless sand sea cultivation immortal realm is not the final say of the Zhou family, and this matter is spread out, what is it?

Of course, this is because his own vision is too narrow and he doesn't understand Zhou Yang's ambitions, so he has this kind of worry.

Zhou Yang is a person who aspires to live forever, how could he do such a self-destructive thing for some petty profits.

If he deliberately changes his concept like this and does this kind of thing that does not conform to his heart, the power of the "Heart Demon Tribulation" will definitely increase.

How could Zhou Yang do such a small thing because of a big loss.

What's more, it's not that he looks down on Huangshamen, in his eyes now, the little Huangshamen is to return to the heyday of the original double golden pill, and he can also be destroyed in the palm of his hand.

Xu Jinyao didn't know the situation now, and when he knew Zhou Yang's achievements in the Liuyun Continent Immortal Cultivation Realm in the future, he would understand how ridiculous his thoughts were.

did not stay in Huangshamen for long, and in Xu Jinyao's thousand thanks, Zhou Yang soon returned to the family.

In the family, Zhou Yang received all the foundation building monks of his family who came to meet him, but except for those new foundation building monks who gave some things as rewards according to the rules, the rest of them were just simple receptions.

Decades have passed, and the number of foundation building monks in the Zhou family has increased a lot, and now the total number of all foundation building monks has reached thirty-five, and this is still not counting Zhou Ronghua and the others he brought back.

And thanks to the abundant supply of resources in the family, among the thirty-five foundation building period monks, including Zhou Tongxuan, there are four foundation building monks who are in the ninth layer of foundation building realm, and they can try to open up the Purple Mansion at any time.

Among them, Zhou Tongxuan had already used [Purple Heart Chalcedony] to open up the Purple Mansion and failed to mention it, and the other three people, in Zhou Yang's opinion, could all give them a chance to fight.

The Zhou family in the Boundless Sand Sea Immortal Cultivation Realm has not had a new Purple Mansion Stage cultivator for a long time, which is a bit abnormal for the Zhou family's current size.

Of course, these things have to be talked about later, and the first thing Zhou Yang dealt with was to commend Zhou Ronghua, Zhou Rongxiang, Zhou Sheng and the three.

At this time, the number of monks of the Zhou family who gathered on the oasis of Rhino Horn Island has reached more than 1,500 people, Zhou Yang let all these people enter the ancestral temple of the Zhou family, in the courtyard of the ancestral hall, Zhou Ronghua and the three of them faced all the clansmen, and recounted the experience of the first battle against Xuanshan with emotion.

These words, they have long been in their hearts, secretly arranged I don't know how many times, at this time, they said it, it is indeed exciting, yearning.

And after they finished speaking, while the other Zhou family members were still digesting the information revealed in their words, Zhou Yang had already taken over their words, with a solemn expression, and delivered his speech in a high tone.

"Ronghua, Rongxiang, Sheng and the three of them, including the glory and Sheng Ping who fell in that battle, are all good men of my Zhou family, and their heroic performance at the moment of life and death in order to protect the outstanding descendants of the family and preserve the strength of the family, they did not hesitate to sacrifice themselves and sacrifice themselves for others, which is worthy of learning and emamicization by all of you here. ”

"I hope that one day if you encounter the situation they were in at that time, you will be able to live up to the surname you have, the blood you flow, and the teaching and dedication of the elders of the family!"

"If I am a monk of the Zhou family, everyone can be like them, everyone can be dedicated to the family, dedicated to the family, and loyal to the family wholeheartedly, then my Zhou family will be eternal for generations to come!"

"I, Zhou Yuanyang, as the highest-ranking elder of the Zhou family today, and as the supreme elder of the Zhou family, I will always be proud of having Ronghua, Rongxiang, Sheng and such heroic and fearless outstanding descendants as them in the family!"

"At the same time, I also sincerely hope that among your younger generations, there will be people like them in the future who will do this kind of feat that makes me proud of you!"

"But as long as my Zhou family monks, anyone who can do such a feat, will be listed on the family [Martyrs List], and enjoy the incense of all generations with the ancestors and martyrs, and at the same time, the family will definitely not treat every martyr who has contributed and sacrificed for the family!"
