After expelling Lu Yan from the sect, Duanmu Huai ordered that Lu Yan be charged an annual rent from the mountain in front of the sect, one million taels of silver a year, and the rent of renting the cultivation method, which was also one million taels of silver per year.

Upon hearing of this decision, all the elders dropped their jaws in shock. They never expected that Duanmu Huai, who was originally fresh, would give such an order, which was equivalent to selling half of the sect's heritage.

And Lu Yan, after hearing this order, his whole face turned bitter melon color, two million taels of silver a year, which was simply his life. Besides, this radius of a hundred miles of the Red Rainbow Sect is famous, and there are many people who come to practice the exercises every day, but most of these people have no cultivation talent, and they can only cultivate the simplest and basic methods, and they can only survey and touch the threshold of cultivation, and those who have cultivation talent will choose other sects to cultivate, and he is not the only one in the world Red Rainbow Sect.

Therefore, in a year, the silver that Lu Yan can earn is only about two million taels, and let him hand over all the hard-earned silver to the sect, and he is unwilling to do ten thousand in his heart.

But just when Lu Yan and the elders were all thinking about it, Duanmu Huai ordered again that if Lu Yan could submit ten highly talented disciples of the sect every year and cultivate to the intermediate level of cultivators, he could go to the rent.

At this time, everyone knew Duanmuhuai's intentions.

Originally, the Chihong Sect developed and grew under him, and faintly became a leader in the sect world, but the size of the sect means that the threshold has become higher, and some teenagers with a little talent for cultivation easily dare not choose the Chihong Sect to practice, and the entry threshold of the Chihong Sect was set by the old ancestor before, and Duanmu Huai has no right to change it. Therefore, now the younger generation of the Red Rainbow Sect has not many disciples, and if this continues, the glory of the Red Rainbow Sect will no longer exist.

This time, when he went out of the customs, he saw that Lu Yan had turned the entire Red Rainbow Sect into a fee-based private school, and an idea immediately burst out of his mind. In this way, he wanted to absorb a large number of talented young elites in the vicinity to enrich the Red Rainbow Sect.

Therefore, the Chihong Sect continued to operate like this, Lu Yan was expelled from the division, and has been living in the mansion at the foot of the mountain, responsible for the operation of the entire Chihong Sect in front of the mountain, and in this process, in order to avoid handing over a large amount of silver, Lu Yan desperately excavated the talented teenagers nearby, and sometimes even personally guided, which also made the overall quality of the people who entered the front mountain of the Chihong Sect to cultivate greatly improved.

For the sect realm, because Lu Yan has left the sect, he has deep contact with the secular world, and even the princes and nobles who have come into contact with the secular world, the sect alliance can't say anything.

However, the Red Rainbow Sect's practice did transcend the shackles of the entire sect realm, so the powerful figures of the various sects gathered in the Red Rainbow Sect to let Duanmu Huai stop this practice.

Later, Duanmu Huai paid a lot of price to maintain the status quo, including many heavenly treasures used in cultivation, cultivation exercises for special fighting qi, and he even took out thirty percent of the thunder attribute exercises he had been cultivating and handed them over to the sect alliance in exchange for maintaining the status quo.

In the end, under the trade-off between left and right and their own evil intentions, the sect alliance agreed to the Red Rainbow Sect's approach, but it would never allow the Red Rainbow Sect to directly participate in the secular hegemony.

The Red Rainbow Sect used this method to skillfully bypass the rules of the sect alliance and open up a new path for the real Red Rainbow Sect. Other sects had the intention to follow suit, but they didn't achieve too good results, firstly, because they didn't have the same Gathering Source Great Array as the Red Rainbow Sect, so they couldn't let people without talent practice Dou Qi, and secondly, they didn't have the background of the Red Rainbow Sect, so there were so many marginal exercises that could be traded. Moreover, they did not have the wealth of the Chihong Sect, and they could afford to pay a price that was enough to shut up the entire sect world.

For a long time, the Red Rainbow Sect has become more and more powerful, and now more than fifty years have passed, and the Red Rainbow Sect has faintly become the top sect in the entire sect world.

It is rumored that the Red Rainbow Sect now has three Venerable-level monks in charge, and Lu Yan, who has been helping the Red Rainbow Sect run the Qianshan, is now afraid that he has also reached the Venerable level.

"A few years ago, the Red Rainbow Sect took back the front mountain and took the initiative to stop all this. Xu Xiuping said in a low tone, looked at Huang Yuanwu, and said softly: "But according to my estimate, this Red Rainbow Sect doesn't think that this thing can't be done, but it's enough, they have accumulated enough foundation and want to go further." ”

Huang Yuanwu was silent, he carefully recalled what Xu Xiuping and himself said before the Chihong Sect, and always felt that something was not right, most of these statements should have been heard by Xu Xiuping, and it was impossible for him to know everything about what happened decades ago, and what he said now should be a rough idea.

When the Red Rainbow Sect was in full swing a few decades ago, it wanted to go further and used such a method, but now it has taken the initiative to stop everything, what are they trying to do?

"Before, I couldn't figure out what this Red Rainbow Sect was going to do. Xu Xiuping continued: "It wasn't until I saw the spell you gave me that I suddenly understood that this Red Rainbow Sect might really want to develop secular power. ”

"Towards secular power?" Huang Yuanwu was stunned when he heard this, and asked: "Isn't there a customary rule in the sect world, all the children of the sect cannot participate in the secular hegemony, so as not to dominate one group." ”

"So as not to dominate one group?" Xu Xiuping sneered when he heard this, and said: "If you believe this, before, the forces between the various sects were almost the same, so there were such customary rules, but now the Chihong Sect has three Venerable-level masters, what rules do they still need to listen to? ”

Huang Yuanwu was silent, if this was the case, it would indeed be very tricky.

It's just that he can't figure it out, if this Red Rainbow Sect wants to take the heavens and the world, why bother so much, they can directly send out top combat power to threaten the royal family, and they can directly get the supreme right. With the background of the Red Rainbow Sect in Xu Xiuping's mouth, it is not difficult to do all this.

Then, Huang Yuanwu thought of the Venerable Great Power who came to the East Palace's Mansion to attack him before, and Xu Feng who appeared before.

He didn't quite believe in a venerable being, although he was hindered by three secret guards, and he couldn't kill himself with all his strength. Moreover, Huang Yuanwu has not figured out why Xu Feng, the advisor of the Northern King, came to the East Palace, and he used the stratagem to make the East Palace, is it just to say a few words to himself? If he really came to kill himself, then he has a lot of opportunities to complete all this.

But in the end, he didn't die, and the Venerable Power also left, and everything seemed inexplicable. Moreover, how did this Xu Feng get involved with the people of the Red Rainbow Sect, and this people of the Red Rainbow Sect faintly wanted to listen to Xu Feng's orders.

Huang Yuanwu frowned slightly, after hearing Xu Xiuping's words, instead of solving his doubts, the mystery became even bigger.

He vaguely felt that all of this, on the surface, seemed to be coming towards the throne that was hanging in the sky, but in fact, it may be far more than that.

After a while, Huang Yuanwu frowned and said, "Uncle Shi, if this is the case, then I can't see many things clearly." ”

Xu Xiuping was slightly stunned when he heard this, he understood what Huang Yuanwu was referring to, let alone Huang Yuanwu, even he couldn't see it clearly.

"I don't know about the hegemony of secular dynasties, and I don't have much interest, but I still have some understanding of the Red Rainbow Sect. Xu Xiuping said: "In the stage of my growth, Duanmu Huai no longer often appeared in the sight of the sect world, and now he is in a semi-secluded state, and the entire Chihong Sect has recently stopped recruiting new disciples, and has become extremely silent. Something is abnormal, and there is an obvious thunder attribute fighting spirit on the rune paper you just gave me, among them, I am afraid there are a lot of secrets. ”

Huang Yuanwu nodded lightly, he also felt the same way, if the Red Rainbow Sect is really as Xu Xiuping said, then this Red Rainbow Sect Sect Master Duanmu Huai is definitely not a reckless person, the sect is a person who knows that he is not only proficient in formations, but also cultivates thunder attribute fighting energy, and the rune paper that attacked him directly proves this, all the spearheads are pointed at Duanmu Huai at once.

If it wasn't for his intention, it would be someone who wanted to lead the calamity to the Red Rainbow Sect.

Huang Yuanwu frowned, thinking left and right, but there was too little information in his hand, so he really couldn't analyze the reason.

It's just one thing for sure, that is, in the sect realm, there is indeed a great power that directly intervenes in the secular dynasty's struggle for hegemony, and it is very deep, and it has the meaning of changing the situation of the war.

"Hey......" Xu Xiuping let out a long sigh, glanced at Huang Yuanwu, and said: "Originally, I came to Dongwangfu today, thinking that I could see your father, but I didn't know that what I got was the news of his death, which is really impermanent." ”

When Huang Yuanwu heard this, he looked at Xu Xiuping, Xu Xiuping was sitting quietly on the chair at this moment, without the fierce momentum of Fang Cai, at this moment, he looked like an old man in the twilight, and it made his heart sad to look at.

Huang Yuanwu just wanted to say something, but Xu Xiuping raised his hand slightly, and said: "I don't need to say anything to comfort me, I know everything, there are only two things in the world that can make me worry, one is the Cangxing Sect, and the other is your father, now that I have learned of your father's death, no matter what, I want to avenge him, what are you going to do later, have you thought about it?"

"There are still many things to deal with inside the palace, and there is still fighting outside that is not over. Huang Yuanwu said softly: "I want to deal with everything, concentrate all my strength, kill God, and slash Yang Qin." ”

When Xu Xiuping heard this, he nodded lightly and said in a deep voice: "I don't understand the secular hegemony, but I may see that you are not a hesitant person, nor are you a cowardly person. After Xu Xiuping said this, without waiting for Huang Yuanwu to reply, he stood up and continued: "For a period of time in the future, I will stay in the Dongwang Mansion, and inform me of what I need to do." However, the matter you told me before about taking your little brother back to the sect should not be mentioned again in the future. ”

Huang Yuanwu was slightly stunned, hurriedly got up, and asked, "Why?"

Xu Xiuping glanced at Huang Yuanwu, stretched out a finger, and a flame quickly condensed on the finger, and quickly turned into a point of light, enveloping Xu Xiuping's whole body. After the robe appeared, Xu Xiuping said: "The sect realm is not very peaceful, even I, an old man who doesn't ask about the world, knows about the vision of the East Palace, not to mention other people, don't you think this matter is still a secret, right?"

Huang Yuanwu was stunned, and then he understood what Xu Xiuping meant. For Huang Yuchen, he has some preconceived ideas, he thinks that the East Wangfu will protect Huang Yuanwu very well, and the outside does not know that he is the young son of the East Wang, but he does not know that although the outside world does not know that the young son of the East King has not yet died, but most of them know that the vision of heaven and earth appeared in the East Wangfu sixteen years ago, which is not a secret.

And Xu Xiuping came to Dongwangfu this time, although he has been hiding his body, I am afraid that he will not be able to escape the eyes and ears of some people with a heart, if there is suddenly one more person when he goes back, it will inevitably attract the attention of others, which not only cannot hide Huang Yuchen, but directly exposes him to the outside.

"Find me a room, and by the way, the two apprentices I brought with me will also bring in. Xu Xiuping stood at the door and said to Huangyuan Martial Arts.
