Chapter 86: The Hou Family's Deliberations
Hou Chuang, the patriarch of the Hou family in Changning City, was at the peak of his strength during the iQue period.
At this time, in the meeting hall of the Hou family, he looked at his demented son, and boundless anger rose in his heart. My son is very precious, but I didn't expect to become like this after a trip to the town.
This son of mine has not liked cultivation since he was a child, but he is very interested in women, he said it a few times, Hou Yuanjue didn't listen to it at all, and after a long time, he stopped caring about him. Just yesterday, Hou Yuanjue was invited by Wanhualou Huixin to come over, and in order to worry about his accident, he also sent him a master of the out-of-body period.
I didn't expect something to happen!
At first, he thought that it was only his subordinates who were injured during the out-of-body period, and his son was frightened because he was like this, so he immediately asked his subordinates to write down the person who did it to his son, and hurriedly sent a master of the Mingxin period to capture the person back.
However, in the morning, Hou Yuanjue suddenly covered his lower body and cried out in pain. After he checked, he found out that the murderer was so ruthless, didn't he want to cut off his children and grandchildren?
He had a lot of fire at this time, and there was nowhere to vent, and the things in the room didn't know how much he had smashed. He can't wait to cut the murderer with a thousand knives at this time!
"Patriarch! Lord Zongguan is back!" Hou Chuang was in a rage, and suddenly someone came to report!
"Call him over! I went out last night, and I can't get things done in a few hours, and I haven't come back until now!" Hou Chuang said with an unhappy face.
After a while, a purple-clothed man walked in, and after coming in, he knelt directly in front of Hou Chuang and said, "Patriarch, my subordinates have smashed it." ”
When Hou Chuang heard this, his already extremely angry mood erupted like a river that had burst its embankment.
"It's a mess, Zongguan, what are you eating! A body forging period, plus a seventh-order spirit beast, you actually couldn't take it down?" Hou Chuang's right hand slapped on the table, the table shattered in response, and he roared angrily.
"That kid is not in the forging period, I ......," Zong Guan explained, but Hou Chuang interrupted him without waiting for him to finish.
"It's not the period of forging the body, is it the period of clear heart, or the unity of heaven and man? You tell me, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy has reached the unity of heaven and man? Zongguan, Zongguan, are you a fool to be this seat?"
"Patriarch, he is in the out-of-body period, and the exercises he practices are also very strange. His subordinates are defeated!" Zong Guan also said with great shame, he couldn't say where this matter was placed, he was a person in the clear heart period, but he was not an opponent in the out-of-body period.
"Don't you have a domain? Aren't you invincible in your domain? You tell me that even if he is out of body stage, under your domain, you actually didn't take him down, but were defeated by him? What do I want you to do?"
"The weirdness is here, and the subordinates have no domain now......"
"What does it mean to have no domain?"
Hou Chuang's brows furrowed, this was a category that he couldn't understand, the realm was comprehended after the fifth layer of the Mingxin realm, how could it be said that there was no and there was none.
"That's it...... The subordinate had lost the domain, and the domain was stolen by the young man. He didn't know how to explain that he had lost his realm, he had thought that he had not only lost his realm, but also lost his spiritual power along the way, but after returning to Changning City, his spiritual power had recovered as before, but the realm was completely unusable, and he felt that his domain was gone. Not knowing how to explain the situation, he explained that his domain had been "stolen", which was the only plausible explanation he thought.
"So, did you go in vain this time?" Hou Chuang's eyes showed a trace of killing intent, but he quickly calmed down again, and the killing intent disappeared.
"No, the subordinate got this. After Zong Guan finished speaking, he handed over the Sheng Ling Immortal Bead that Zhan Qingxiao had given him.
Hou Chuang took the bead into his hand, and soon saw the villain in the bead, who was his son Hou Yuanjue, so he asked puzzledly, "What's the matter?"
"The reason why the young master became like this is because the soul was taken away, and the villain in this bead is the soul of the young master. Zongguan said.
"Oh, I see!" Hou Chuang looked at the bead, thinking in his mind, who would be very familiar with the soul.
He didn't think for a moment that anyone was only familiar with souls, so he said, "Go, invite all the elders over to discuss it." ”
After a while, all the elders of the Hou family came to the conference hall, and Hou Chuang took out the beads and said, "Everyone knows about Yuan Jue, right? Therefore, the elders should stop persuading me to appoint other side children as candidates for patriarchship. As long as Yuan Jue's soul is sent back, he is still the young master of my Hou family, and his status can be shaken. ”
"What the patriarch said is extremely true!" the elders hurriedly said.
"It's just that this soul is going to be sent back to Yuan Jue, I don't know which elder has any method?
"Patriarch, this soul of the young master is withdrawn from the body, there are only three possibilities, one is that the young master is weak and is about to die, and the soul will leave the body. Obviously, the young master is still in good health, and this is not the case! The second is that the soul power is extremely strong, and it can forcibly drain the young master's soul. The third is the Soul Leaving Pill, but the young master has no signs of taking the Soul Leaving Pill!So, the young master only has the second situation, I want to ask the patriarch, what kind of existence did the young master offend, and he would end up like this? But the eyes of the other patriarch have not been polished, so my Hou family will fall into a catastrophe!" A white-bearded elder asked.
"What kind of person, it's just a small out-of-body period!, Great Elder, don't talk nonsense anymore, think of any way to send Yuan Jue's soul back to the body!" Hou Chuang said with an unhappy face.
"What can be done about this?"
"We don't know much about souls, either!"
"Yes, although it is already out of body period, but the soul is such a mysterious thing, we all know little about our own souls, let alone other people's souls!"
"There's no way around it!"
All the elders said a word, and none of them came up with a useful solution.
"That's enough! I didn't call you here to argue and sigh, it's a solution, don't any of you know the soul?
All the elders shook their heads, and suddenly a woman's voice sounded, "I know who knows the soul very well!"
"Yuan Ying?" Hou Chuang saw a woman in a blue and white dress outside the council hall at this time, this woman was his youngest daughter Hou Yuanying.
Hou Yuanying walked in, and then said, "Father, I know that there is a person who knows the soul very well!"
"Tell me, who is it?" Hou Chuang hurriedly asked.
"Do you remember that my daughter went to Changning Lake to participate in the Pavilion Meeting the year before last?" asked Hou Yuanying.
"The Pavilion Society is the contact between these family women in our Changning City. Why, among the people you know, there are people who know the soul very well?" Hou Chuang asked in some surprise, he remembered that among these big families in Changning City, there were very few people who knew about the soul.
"Yes, my daughter knows a person named Baili Lingju, and she is a soul shearer. Hou Yuanying showed a smile and said.
"Soul Shearer?" Hou Chuang was stunned.
At this time, an elder slapped his thigh and said, as if he had thought of something: "Oh, patriarch, I almost forgot, this soul shearing master can be regarded as knowing the soul very well! The soul shearing master specializes in cultivating souls, and as long as he can reach the out-of-body stage, he can tear apart the souls of others!"
"Can you tear apart other people's souls?" Hou Chuang's eyes showed a look of horror, and then he asked, "Yuan Ying, what is the realm of this hundred-mile spirit ju?"
"Hmm..."Hou Yuanying thought for a while, and then said, "My daughter remembers, a year ago, it seemed to be the Gathering Spirit Period, and now what realm it is, I don't know!"
"Okay! I haven't heard of this Baili family, which of you knows about this family? I'll take Yuan Jue there immediately!" Hou Chuang said again.
"Father, this Baili family is just a small family in our Changning City, and it is not just a call to come and go away! You are the patriarch of the first family in Changning, how can you commit yourself to going there in person! Or, my daughter will run this trip for you, right?" Hou Yuanying smiled and said suddenly.
She remembered that a year ago, the eldest lady of the Baili family, called Baili Lingyue, learned to bark as a dog in order to tie herself up, so in her eyes, the Baili family is a dog. And she heard that Baili Lingju was just a sideline, and her father used to look too highly at them. At the same time, she also wondered if she could go and see her puppy!
"It's okay!Yuan Ying, you can go for your father, and you must invite the Baili Lingju over!" Hou Chuang nodded slightly, and said in agreement, he is indeed the patriarch of the first family in Changning City, and it is too cheap to go to a third-rate family.
"Don't worry, father, I'll definitely invite her over!"
"Zongguan, you will follow Yuan Ying over this time, you must protect Yuan Ying. If you mess up this matter again, you don't have to see me again!" Hou Chuang thought about it, and felt that his daughter was usually a little rude and willful, afraid that she would cause trouble, and the realm was only in the stage of enlightenment, so it was better to arrange a master to go over.
"Subordinates obey!"
