The data Zhou Guangxiang said surprised Zhou Yang.

He didn't expect that just fifty-five years later, so many people in the Zhou family could not meet the assessment conditions.

Although he also knew that this data was a record of several generations of clansmen over the past fifty-five years, and even some of them had run out of life.

But even so, the problem is somewhat serious.

You must know that the number of people still alive on the Zhou family's genealogy is only more than 1,800 people!

"With so many people failing to pass the assessment, there should be a lot of resentment within the clan, right? Haven't you thought about lowering some assessment requirements or extending the assessment period?"

Zhou Yang looked at Zhou Guangxiang and asked, but he couldn't see anything on his face.

"Of course there is resentment, but the nephew feels that it is not yet to the point where it cannot be implemented, Uncle Nine may not know, now many of our Zhou family members have learned a superficial skill, even if they fail the assessment and can't get the benefits issued by the family, they can also receive remuneration by farming for the family and taking care of the orchard, medicine garden, and animal garden, and the nephew also instructed the clan to give priority to them in this regard. ”

"And over the years, I have sprinkled a lot of Tsukidan, and I have seen other monks who have worked hard to practice and passed the assessment to achieve the success of Tsukidan Tsukidan, and those juniors who really have potential have corrected their mentality and put most of their minds on cultivation. ”

"As long as these juniors work hard to cultivate, and with the help of the abundant resources that the family can provide now, it will not be difficult for them to pass the assessment at all, and aren't these people what we really need to strengthen the family?"

Zhou Guangxiang explained to Zhou Yang with a calm face, and the meaning of his words was obviously a negation of reducing the difficulty of the assessment and extending the assessment time.

Seeing this, Zhou Yang bowed his head slightly and said, "Okay, you are the patriarch of the family, since you think it's okay, Uncle Nine and I have no problem." ”

Zhou Guangxiang breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly bowed his hand and said, "Uncle Xie Jiu understands." ”

"I don't want to worry about family affairs, Uncle Jiu, but there are some things that I have to let you know. ”

Zhou Yang looked at his nephew in front of him, and slowly said that he would open a cave in the immortal realm of Liuyun Continent in the future.

He has already made a decision on this matter and will not change it.

But on the Zhou family's side, they must be informed and let them know, at least Zhou Guangxiang's high-level leaders should be clear.

After he finished talking about this important matter, he continued: "In addition, in a year or two, Uncle Nine will go to the extreme west to cultivate the immortal realm, and let Guangxiang go with me when the time comes, she hasn't seen the Taoist couple and children she left there for decades!"

"And I bought three copies of [Purple Heart Chalcedony] for the family this time, how to distribute them, Uncle Nine, I don't ask, you make a standard yourself. ”

"When I come back from the extreme west, I will officially go to Liuyun Continent to cultivate the immortal realm, and when the time comes, you will arrange for a few capable family monks to go over there with me to serve and summon, and then prepare two million lower grade spirit stones and a batch of excellent third-order magic weapons and spirit runes for me, these things will be put together with the picked [Ning Yuan Fruit], and I will take them with me at that time!"

Zhou Guangxiang finally couldn't keep his composure anymore.

He looked at Zhou Yang with a look of shock and confusion, and he didn't understand why this ninth uncle didn't want this family just after going out for such a trip!

"Nine, Uncle Nine, are you going to give up the family?"

He looked at Zhou Yang with trembling lips and asked, his voice a little choked.

At this moment, he seemed to have become the young man who wanted to rely on his elders for help in everything, because he suddenly heard that the elders were going to abandon him and leave, and his heart was hesitant.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Uncle Nine, I have paid so much for this family, how can I give up the family?"

"You, you, although your brain is flexible and smart, your visible knowledge is still a little shorter after all, and your eyes are only limited to this small boundless sand sea cultivation immortal realm, and you can't see the wider world outside!"

"You don't want to think about it, if Uncle Nine and I have been like you, I have been cultivating immortals in this boundless sand sea and not going out, how can I have this cultivation today? If I have been practicing here, how can I let my Zhou family walk out of the sand sea and complete the goal that several overlords of the Boundless Sand Sea Cultivation Immortal Realm in the past could not accomplish?"

"This boundless sand sea cultivation immortal realm is a small pond relative to the entire [Linghuan Realm], and only small fish and shrimp below the Jindan period can live here, like Uncle Jiu and me, who have jumped out of the small pond, only by going to the rivers, lakes and seas outside to fight the dragon, can we continue to grow, so that you small fish and shrimp can also have the opportunity to jump out of the small pond and become predators!"

"One day, some of you little fish and shrimp will become predators and be able to shelter this small pond, Uncle Jiu, and I will really be able to swim around the world with confidence at that time!"

Zhou Yang reprimanded this nephew with a look of hatred that iron is not made of steel, and Zhou Guangxiang was full of shame and speechless.

He was really panicked just now, only thinking that after Zhou Yang was not in the family, the Zhou family would lose an Optimus Pillar.

But he forgot that over the years, Zhou Yang has actually been out of the family for much longer than in the family, and the family has not had any problems because of this.

At this time, he was reprimanded and explained by Zhou Yang, and he suddenly understood.

"Uncle Nine, what you taught is that your nephew is wrong, your nephew shouldn't suspect Uncle Nine, your nephew is short-sighted and short-sighted, you should be scolded!"

With a face full of shame, he hurriedly lowered his head and admitted his mistake, eager to slap himself a few times.

Zhou Yang was right, his knowledge was indeed a little short-sighted, and he was confined to this small boundless sand sea cultivation immortal realm.

Even if Zhou Yang and Zhou Guangxiang talked to him about the situation in the outside world after they came back in the past, it was always as impressive and unforgettable as when they heard people tell stories about this.

This is also why the Huangsha Sect used to have the tradition of sending Purple Mansion period monks to Liuyun Continent to travel to the Immortal Cultivation Realm in turn, in order to prevent those in power in the sect from being limited by the small pond of the Boundless Sand Sea Immortal Cultivation Realm, and their vision was limited to this small pond for the rest of their lives.

Shameful and courageous, after Zhou Guangxiang figured out this, he immediately bowed solemnly to Zhou Yang and said: "Uncle Nine, my nephew has a request, you go to the extreme west to cultivate the immortal realm this time, can you bring your nephew over? My nephew also wants to meet my brother-in-law and nephews and nieces, and by the way, broaden my horizons and knowledge, so as not to make such mistakes again in the future!"

"You just don't mention this, Uncle Jiu, I have to tell you about it, it's rare for you to take the initiative yourself, it seems that you really realize your own shortcomings, this is good, very good!"

Zhou Yang bowed slightly, very pleased with Zhou Guangxiang's request.

His requirements have always been very high, if Zhou Guangxiang is unwilling to leave the family for "further study" after this incident, he will really have to consider replacing the patriarch in advance.

The patriarch of the Zhou family, his cultivation may not be the top, but his vision is definitely superior, beyond the limitations of the boundless sand sea immortal cultivation realm.

In this way, the next generation of outstanding clansmen in the Zhou family can plant a seed that jumps out of the pond in their hearts since they were young.

In this way, he can be consistent with the thoughts of the ancestor of his family, and carry out corresponding reforms in the family according to his thoughts.

In fact, it was not only Zhou Guangxiang, because there should be no danger when he went to the extreme west this time, and the time would not be too long, Zhou Yang had already decided to take most of the Zhou family's current foundation building period monks to broaden their horizons.

This is a good opportunity for further study, those monks in the foundation building period have seen the prosperity of the outside world, and they will have more motivation to practice when they return to the back of the family, and when the time comes, with the news stimulation of the three "Purple Heart Chalcedony" he brought back, the effect will definitely be doubled.

Even Zhou Yang had already thought about it, and everyone who went out this time would write a travelogue and put it in the family's school when they came back, so that the younger generations of the family could read and study it from an early age.

There are also language training classes that should be held at the same time, so that Zhou Tongxuan can wait for the monks who have cultivated immortals outside, and regularly teach some outstanding children of the Zhou family to learn the accent of the outside immortal cultivation world, so that they can better hide their true identities after they go out.

Their Zhou family must go out of the boundless sand sea to cultivate the immortal realm in the future, and before that, the children of the Zhou family need to have a clear understanding of the situation in the outside immortal cultivation realm.

If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools.

Education cannot be done overnight, so it is necessary to plan for it in advance.

The news of Zhou Yang's return to the Boundless Sand Sea Cultivation Immortal Realm quickly spread, and it didn't take long for Xu Jinyao, the new head of Huangshamen, who heard the news, to personally rush to Lingxi Peak to meet him.

Xu Jinyao took over the position of head of Huangshamen more than 40 years ago, and as for Yang Wenxiong, the original head of Huangshamen, he passed away more than 30 years ago.

Speaking of which, Yang Wenxiong, the head of Huangshamen, is quite qualified, at least during his time in power, Huangshamen has not experienced any major turmoil, and the vitality of the previous turbulence and losses is also slowly recovering.

By the time Xu Jinyao took over as the head of the sect, although there were still no Jindan period monks in Huangshamen, the number of monks in the Zifu period had recovered to five, and there were more than 200 monks in the foundation building period.

In terms of cultivation, the cultivation of the fifth layer of Xu Jinyao's Purple Mansion is not the highest person in Huangshamen, but Yang Wenxiong passed on the position of head to him, but what he valued was his mind and youth.

As a monk who was focused on cultivating during Yang Wenxiong's reign, Xu Jinyao was very young, and now he is only more than 260 years old, so even if he cultivates in the future and stops in the Zifu period, he can still lead Huangshamen for more than 200 years.

For the current Huangshamen, internal stability is greater than everything, and a head who can be in office for a long time is easier to convince the disciples of the sect.

"The junior Xu Jinyao has seen the senior Zhou. "Online eBook

On Lingxi Peak, as soon as Xu Jinyao saw Zhou Yang, he took the initiative to pay homage as a junior, showing great humility, and he was not half proud of his identity as the head of Huangshamen.

This alone made Zhou Yang feel very comfortable.

In terms of cultivation, he is a fourth-layer monk of Jindan, and in terms of age, he is nearly 100 years older than Xu Jinyao.

In this case, if Xu Jinyao still holds the identity of the head of Huangshamen, he will be unhappy if he plays any cards in front of him.

"Hey, I didn't expect that Zhou Mou just went out to travel for decades, and after he came back, there were a few fewer old people, Yang Zhang's generation of heroes, it's a pity!"

Zhou Yang looked at Xu Jinyao, who was respectful in front of him, but he didn't rush to ask the other party's intention, but let out a long sigh, remembering Yang Wenxiong, the deceased old man.

Not counting the monks within the Zhou family, there are only a few monks outside the Zhou family who can be called old people by him.

And now, Yang Wenxiong and Chen Ping'an of the Chen family have both passed away.

Nie Qiufeng, who is left in the Nie family, is also not far from the Shouyuan limit, and he can't last long.

The rest, although there are still a few Purple Mansion monks who have been promoted in the past two hundred years have had some exchanges with him, but after all, they are just ordinary interpersonal contacts, and they have not established any deep friendships, and they are not old friends.

Xu Jinyao couldn't figure out what Zhou Yang meant, so he could only follow his words and said: "Uncle Yang, his old man walked very peacefully, and he told his juniors before he left that there are not many people in his life who respect him, but you are the most powerful one of them, and explain to the juniors that it is good to be like Senior Zhou to learn and ask for advice, and take you as an example." ”

Regarding this kind of words, Zhou Yang only smiled faintly when he heard this, and did not take it seriously.

He didn't want to be false with Xu Jinyao in this regard, and said bluntly: "Xu Daoyou still told me about your intention to come to see Zhou, but what do you need Zhou's help with?"

Xu Jinyao was somewhat embarrassed when he heard his words.

His mouth moved, and after a long while, he said loudly: "Don't dare to deceive the seniors, the juniors come over this time, and they really have something to ask for." ”

What Xu Jinyao asked for was not new, but to remind, or urge, Zhou Yang to complete the original agreement with Cao Wenjin and find a "jade liquid golden pill" for Huangshamen.

At the beginning, Cao Wenjin gave Zhou Yang a "purple heart chalcedony" that he originally prepared for his daughter, and agreed with him that after Zhou Yang's cultivation reached the golden pill period, he would find a "jade liquid golden pill" for Huangshamen at half price.

Now more than two hundred years have passed since the agreement was made, and Zhou Yang has indeed formed a golden pill as Cao Wenjin expected.

Therefore, Xu Jinyao, the new head of Huangshamen, began to be anxious about this matter.

Because it was something he had promised at the beginning, in the face of Xu Jinyao's request, Zhou Yang was not easy to refuse.

However, the treasure of "Jade Liquid Golden Pill" is too rare, and he doesn't dare to guarantee that he will be able to get it within a certain period of time, so he can only give Xu Jinyao a vague promise, saying that he will definitely abide by the agreement to do this well.

Fortunately, Xu Jinyao was also knowledgeable enough, and he didn't rush too hard, he just asked him to help pay more attention to his attitude, and left him an advance payment of 600,000 spirit stones.

Zhou Yang knew that if he didn't collect this advance payment, it would make Xu Jinyao feel that he didn't take this matter to heart, so he accepted it on the spot very happily.

Sure enough, seeing him so refreshing with the spirit stones, Xu Jinyao finally showed a look of relief on his face, and then took the opportunity to ask him about some problems encountered in cultivation, and then took the initiative to say goodbye and leave.

"Yang Wenxiong has chosen a good successor, this Xu Jinyao may not be able to let their Huangshamen regain their former glory, but there should be no problem in keeping the foundation of Huangshamen. ”

In the cave, Zhou Yang looked at Xu Jinyao's departing back, made a judgment silently, and then didn't care about this person.

The height he was at made it difficult for him to put his limited energy on these outsiders who could not pose a threat to him.

Xu Jinyao may be good, but even if he succeeds in marrying Dan, Zhou Yang is 100% sure that he can easily subdue him, how can such a person be worth his extra attention?

It didn't take long for Zhou Guangxiang to arrange the affairs within the family, and then rushed to Lingxi Peak to join Zhou Yang with seventeen monks from the foundation building period of the Zhou family.

This time to go to the extreme west, Zhou Guangxiang's brothers and sisters will go, and Lu Xuewei, who has just returned from the immortal cultivation realm of Liuyun Continent, will temporarily replace them to guard the family, including Zhou Tongxuan and other three foundation building period monks, and this time they will also stay in the family.

Zhou Yang even placed the Golden-Winged Thunder Eagle, which had been promoted to a fourth-order mid-grade demon beast, on Lingxi Peak, so that Lu Xuewei could ride and defend against possible enemies.

After everything was ready, Zhou Yang rushed to the underground ruins with a group of juniors, re-installed the human-sized "Xuanjing Stone" on the altar teleportation array, and took out thirty-six high-grade spirit stones and stuffed them into the spirit stone groove.

It is also that he is now wealthy, and the number of top-grade spirit stones he has accumulated has reached more than a hundred, otherwise he is really reluctant to use this teleportation array.

Because of his experience last time, he did not carry a Qi cultivation period monk with a low cultivation level when he teleported this time, and naturally there were no casualties after the teleportation.

And a safe way out of the "Falling Demon Valley" has already been explored, and Zhou Yang soon walked out of the "Falling Demon Valley" with a group of juniors.

Then, he summoned the ghost servant Xu Song, who had been holding in the "Yunshen Card".

"Xu Daoyou, in the future, you will practice in this [Falling Demon Valley], and by the way, help Zhou guard the teleportation array, well, if the juniors of the Zhou family in Cangyuan Immortal City have something to ask you for, you can also help them as appropriate, but the most important thing is to guard the teleportation array!"

Outside the "Falling Demon Valley", Zhou Yang looked at the ghost cultivator who had followed him for more than two hundred years in front of him, and after being slightly silent for a while, he said his arrangements for it.

With his current cultivation, Xu Song's strength can no longer help him, and the formation inheritance and refining inheritance that Xu Song has mastered have already been squeezed out by him.

However, he is a nostalgic person after all, and he can't do the kind of thing of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, so before coming to the extreme west this time, he made a decision to give Xu Song a certain degree of "freedom", so that he can spend the rest of his life in the "Falling Demon Valley", a place suitable for ghost path and demon cultivation, and help him guard the teleportation array by the way.

Xu Song didn't expect that Zhou Yang, who hadn't let himself out for a long time, gave himself such a big surprise as soon as he released himself.

"Xu really didn't see the wrong person, Zhou Daoyou is indeed a kind person!"

"If you are grateful, Xu will not say much, please rest assured that as long as Xu lives for a day, he will never let people pass through the teleportation array here and threaten Daoyou's family in the boundless sand sea immortal cultivation realm!"

He looked at Zhou Yang with surprise in his eyes, and after being silent for a while, he bowed to Zhou Yang and solemnly made a promise.

Seeing this, Zhou Yang immediately nodded with satisfaction and said: "With Xu Daoyou's words, Zhou can be completely relieved, and please Xu Daoyou rest assured, as long as Zhou really finds a way to lead to the netherworld in the future, he will definitely come to inform Daoyou and bring Daoyou over." ”

When Xu Song took refuge in him, his only requirement was that if he found a passage to the "Netherworld" in the future, he would let him enter the Netherworld.

Zhou Yang is now bringing up this matter again, which is also to show that he has always remembered this matter in order to calm his heart.

And when Xu Song heard his words, he also nodded heavily and replied: "Xu will always wait for that day to come!"

After arranging Xu Song, Zhou Yang flew to Cangyuan Immortal City with a group of Zhou family juniors.

Thousands of miles away from Cangyuan Immortal City, Zhou Yang put down the monks of the Zhou family, and then temporarily lent the mask given by Lu Xuanji to Zhou Guangxiang to hide his face, and then Zhou Guangxiang took Zhou Guangxiang and others to Cangyuan Immortal City.

But he himself quietly went to the Lingshan of the Zhou family outside the city, and sent a message to Zhou Tongyue, the head of the Zhou family's branch here, and Li Hong, the elder, to send a message to the flying sword, so that the two of them came out to meet him.

After receiving Zhou Yang's summons flying sword, Zhou Tongyue and Li Hong were surprised and delighted.

In the past few decades, except for Zhou Yang, who sent them some treasures when he returned to the Boundless Sand Sea Cultivation Immortal Realm through the extreme west, they had no contact with the Zhou family themselves, so that the two of them sometimes couldn't help but wonder if Zhou Yang had given up on them.

And because Zhou Yang was still wanted by the entire "Backlight Alliance", they didn't even dare to talk to the junior monks of the Zhou family here about the existence of this family ancestor, lest they would bring disaster to the family after revealing the secret.

And in the past few years, because the expansion rate of the Zhou family in Cangyuan Immortal City was somewhat unusual, many surrounding forces began to investigate their origins, trying to find the reason for their rise.

This kind of investigation made them worry for a long time, for fear that the true origin of the Zhou family would be found out.

Fortunately, when those forces began to investigate, the original group of Zhou family Qi cultivation period monks who came to the extreme west with Zhou Yang were all seated, and the few monks who knew the true origin of the Zhou family all followed Li Hong's suggestion and moved into Cangyuan Immortal City to live, and they did not go out easily.

This makes it impossible for those investigators to find out that there are some problems with the origin of the Zhou family's fabrication.

But even so, this matter has always become a big stone in the hearts of Zhou Tongyue and Li Hong, so that they dare not have any negligence and slackness, and they are under great pressure.

In this case, now that he has finally received the flying sword summons from Zhou Yang, the ancestor of the Zhou family, how can he not surprise the two of them.

Immediately, neither of them dared to divulge any news, and soon they each made excuses, quietly slipped out of the family's spiritual mountain, and according to the news left in Zhou Yang's flying sword transmission, they saw Zhou Yang in a wilderness and dense forest that they had not seen for many years.
