Looking at Zhou Zhengtian, who had left, Lu Zhaoyuan secretly heaved a sigh of relief. He slowly sat back on the main seat and said softly,""If there's nothing else, everyone can leave.”
His son had been crippled and humiliated. How could the Great Elder let this go? The only way now was to ask the Grand Master and the elders to come out of seclusion to avenge the humiliation today.
However, the Very High Clan Leader and the Clan Elder were cultivating in seclusion in the ancestral land. Only the Clan Leader was qualified to meet them.
In order to avenge his son, the First Elder had no choice but to lower his face and adopt an unprecedented respectful attitude. His knees went soft as he knelt on the ground and begged Lu Zhaoyuan,"Zhou Zhengtian is such a bully. I implore the clan head to immediately ask the clan head to come out of seclusion and kill him to avenge today's humiliation.”
First Elder was going to play tricks again. Lu Zhaoyuan's expression immediately darkened as he said angrily,"Shut up! Don't you think you've caused enough trouble?”
"Are we just going to let this go?" The First Elder was not convinced. As the number one martial arts family in Yunxi City, the Lu family had enjoyed endless glory over the years. They had never been humiliated like this.
"Forget it. What else can we do? Our Lu family was in the wrong in the first place today. If this matter gets blown up, we will only be ridiculed by the martial arts world. Our Lu family can't afford to lose face.”
"Moreover, now is the critical moment for the Very High Master to break through to the late stage of Extreme Jin. He can't be disturbed at all. If the Very High Master fails to break through because of such a trivial matter, will you bear the responsibility?”
In order to prevent First Elder from continuing to play tricks, Lu Zhaoyuan could only state the pros and cons to shut him up.
From another point of view, Lu Shaohong and the others were all elites of the Elder Faction. To Lu Zhaoyuan, he was the biggest beneficiary of being crippled by accident. He could not be bothered to investigate who the murderer was.
After this incident, his daughter's position in the family would no longer be shaken. He was not stupid, so why would he stand up for Lu Shaohong?
After being reprimanded by Lu Zhaoyuan, the First Elder knew that he was powerless. He could only leave the meeting hall with a resentful expression, but he was cursing in his heart."Old Zhou, just you wait. Lu Zhaoyuan is afraid of you, but I'm not. As long as the Grand Master comes out of seclusion, I'll definitely make sure you die without a burial place.”
...
In the courtyard of the Zhou family's residence in the northern suburbs, two martial artists, one from No.1 Middle School and one from No.1 Middle School, stood facing each other.
The middle-aged man was in his forties. He had a crew cut and was tall and sturdy. He looked dignified without being angry. He wore a Flame Dragon badge on his chest and wore the uniform unique to the higher-ups of the Flame Dragon Pavilion.
The Flaming Dragon Pavilion was the most mysterious martial arts organization in Huaxia. It was known as the law enforcer of the martial arts world. It was used to mediate disputes between martial artists, punish major crimes committed by martial artists, and maintain the stability of the martial arts world.
The old man had white hair and beard, and he looked kind. He was Zhou Zhengtian, a Martial Honor who had just left the Lu family's meeting hall and returned home.
The middle-aged man's name was Shen Guohua, the leader of the Jiangnan Division of the Flaming Dragon Pavilion. He was also Zhou Zhengtian's best friend and a comrade who had once fought in a bloody battle.
When his good friend came, Zhou Zhengtian was the first to greet him with cupped fists.""Grand Elder Shen, it's been a long time since we last met. I didn't expect you to have successfully broken through to the middle stage of the Transcendent Martial God Realm.”
Zhou Zhengtian was a veteran Revered Martial Artist in Yunxi City. He was knowledgeable and respected. Shen Guohua did not dare to be negligent. He nodded slightly and cupped his fists in return."Elder Zhou, you're too polite. Thank you!"
Shen Guohua took out an exquisite brocade box from his pocket and carefully handed it to Zhou Zhengtian. He said softly,""This is a thousand-year-old snow ginseng. It will be of great help to your injuries.”
Zhou Zhengtian took the brocade box with both hands and opened it. He saw a crystal clear snow ginseng that was like a beautiful jade and emitted a medicinal fragrance. He couldn't help but sigh,"Such an excellent spirit herb must be very valuable. It's really a waste to give it to a dying old man.”
Then, he handed the box back to Shen Guohua without hesitation.
The relationship between the Zhou and Shen families was delicate. Such a generous gift must have something to ask for.
He was a dying man. Even if he consumed this thousand-year-old snow ginseng, he could only extend his lifespan by three months at most. He could not repay the favor he owed.
As the saying goes, money is easy to repay, but favors are difficult to repay.
Seeing this, Shen Guohua hurriedly waved his hand and said with a serious expression,"Elder Zhou, you're too kind. It's just a stalk of snow ginseng, nothing much. There's something that my Flaming Dragon Pavilion doesn't understand.”
Hearing this, Zhou Zhengtian's heart calmed down a little. It turned out that he was not here to propose marriage. This matter was much easier to handle.
Shen Guohua had an only son named Shen Jianxing. He was handsome and had a good character. He was about the same age as his granddaughter Zhou Chunhua and was also a martial artist. He had always loved his granddaughter and had repeatedly asked his father to propose marriage to the Zhou family.
However, the king of Xiang had a dream, but the goddess had no heart.
Furthermore, Zhou Chunhua was the only descendant of the Zhou family and shouldered the heavy responsibility of revitalizing the Zhou family. Based on Zhou Zhengtian's subjective wishes, he was not willing to marry her off.
Therefore, this marriage was put on hold and left unsettled.
Zhou Zhengtian's expression softened and he chuckled,""Grand Secretary Shen is too polite, why don't you tell me?”
Shen Guohua did not keep her in suspense and went straight to the point."I heard that you are proficient in metaphysics and have the reputation of being the number one master of metaphysics in Jiangnan Province. Recently, my Flame Dragon Pavilion has encountered a major event in metaphysics.”
So it was a question about metaphysics. Zhou Zhengtian stroked his beard and chuckled,""I can't be considered a master of metaphysics, I've only dabbled in it a little. For Grand Secretary Shen to call it a major event, it must not be simple. This old man is also very curious. As long as this old man knows, I will tell you everything I know.”
Shen Guo pondered for a few seconds, his expression solemn as he slowly told the whole story,"Not long ago, my Flame Dragon Pavilion observed a purple light soaring into the sky in Yunxi City. According to the analysis of the higher-ups, this phenomenon is very likely the descent of Planet Zi Wei.”
Hearing this, Zhou Zhengtian's expression changed drastically and he exclaimed,""Purple Star! A true dragon with an Emperor Star Destiny, a Human King Destiny, and unparalleled cultivation talent?”
The Crape Myrtle Star only existed in metaphysics. It was extremely mysterious, but it also existed.
Rumor had it that the Purple Star had descended, and the sky was filled with auspicious signs and purple light.
There were many records of this in the history of Chinese martial arts. For example, he dominated the world and was invincible with his pair of iron fists. In the history of Chinese martial arts, the first person to surpass the Martial Saint Realm and cultivate to the True Sage Realm was the Supreme Fist Warrior, Zhan Wuji. His three-foot-long blade swept across the Nine Regions of China, and no one could take his sword. The second person in the history of Chinese martial arts to break through to the True Sage Realm, Dugu Yijian, had similar phenomena when he was born.
" Elder Zhou is knowledgeable. The descent of Planet Zi Wei is related to the future of China's martial arts. The Pavilion Master has given a death order to find the Reincarnators of Planet Zi Wei as soon as possible and to rope them in to the Flame Dragon Pavilion at all costs. We must not let them fall into the hands of the Martial Alliance, or else the Flame Dragon Pavilion will be in danger.”
Speaking of the Flame Dragon Pavilion and the Martial Alliance, one had to first mention the Chinese martial arts world and the structure of the martial arts world.
The Chinese martial arts world was a special group made up of martial artists. There was a mix of good and bad, and various factions stood on equal footing. Currently, the largest factions were the Flame Dragon Pavilion and the Martial Alliance.
The Flaming Dragon Pavilion was one of the oldest martial arts forces in Huaxia. It had a long history of more than a thousand years. Its main purpose was to promote the development of martial arts and maintain peace in the martial arts world. It was known as the law enforcer of the martial arts world in Huaxia.
As for the Martial Alliance, it was the newest martial faction to rise up in China's martial arts world. Its founding date could be traced back to China's Martial Dao Calamity 53 years ago.
Fifty-three years ago, the Eastern Island's martial arts forces launched a large-scale invasion, and the Chinese martial arts world was in imminent danger. In order to protect themselves, the martial arts aristocratic families united to form a group similar to a sect, which was the predecessor of the Martial Alliance.
A year later, after more than 30 battles, the martial arts forces on the East Island were defeated.
Although the Chinese martial arts community had won the final victory, they had paid a heavy price. Top martial arts forces such as the Flame Dragon Pavilion had almost lost all their high-end combat forces.
Compared to the top martial factions, the Martial Alliance's losses in this calamity could be said to be the smallest, almost negligible.
When the Martial Alliance was first established, it was upright and upright. Its main goal was to defend against foreign enemies and promote martial arts. Its reputation was not bad.
However, in recent years, he was not satisfied with the current situation. He acted with the concept of following life and opposing death. He massacred small and medium-sized martial arts forces wantonly, setting off a bloody storm. His ruthlessness was comparable to that of the demonic path.
As the enforcer of the martial world, how could the Flame Dragon Pavilion allow the Martial Alliance to act as they pleased? However, the Martial Alliance was extremely powerful, and their combat strength was beyond imagination.
According to the latest information, the Martial Alliance's Alliance Master's cultivation had already reached the peak stage of the Martial Saint Realm. He had cultivated the legendary Indestructible Body of Vajra, and there were countless experts under him.
With the Flame Dragon Pavilion's current strength, they were no match for him. They were about to become the Martial Alliance's next target.
According to the ancient history of martial arts in Huaxia, the Reincarnators of Zi Wei Planet had unparalleled talent in cultivation. They possessed the special power of Zi Wei True Qi and were known to be the only transcendental existences who could cultivate to the True Divine Realm.
The Flame Dragon Pavilion was already on the brink of collapse. If they could get his help, it would not be impossible to turn the situation around.
On the other hand, if the Reincarnators fell into the hands of the Martial Alliance, the Flame Dragon Pavilion would definitely face a calamity.
Therefore, the moment he deduced it, it immediately attracted the attention of the Master of the Flaming Dragon Pavilion. He secretly ordered Shen Guo Hua to find the Reincarnators of Planet Zi Wei as soon as possible at all costs.
"I see, no wonder Grand Secretary Shen would personally come. I wonder if the Reincarnators of Planet Zi Wei have been found?”Zhou Zhengtian had encountered a crucial problem. The reincarnators of Planet Zi Wei were a rare sight, just like the immortal cultivators. They were legendary existences and he wanted to see them too.
Others might not know, but Zhou Zhengtian, who studied metaphysics, knew very well that there was another huge secret on Zi Wei Star.
Every follower of Planet Crape Myrtle would be blessed by the heavens and achieve great achievements. This was an absolute advantage. If they could know about it in advance and seize the opportunity, it would not be impossible for the Zhou family to make a comeback.
Shen Guohua shook his head and said,""My Flame Dragon Pavilion has secretly retrieved the information of all the babies born in Yunxi City yesterday. There are no cases that match the time of the phenomenon.”
It was actually not a baby. Zhou Zhengtian could not help but frown and could not help but blurt out,"If it's not a baby, could it be…"
"What is it?" Shen Guohua felt that there was a chance and hurriedly asked,"Elder Zhou, what do you mean? Could it be that there was a secret behind the descent of Zi Wei Star?”
Zhou Zhengtian hesitated for a few seconds and said unconfidently,"" As we all know, most of the reincarnators of Planet Zi Wei descend to the human world as babies. However, we can't rule out the possibility that their Life Providence will suddenly awaken. For example, the Sword Dao Supreme Martial Artist Hong Wu is the latter. Before his Life Providence awakens, he is no different from ordinary people. After his Life Providence awakens, he has the Emperor Star Life Providence and has soared into the sky, displaying shocking cultivation talents.”
The saying that Hongwu's Life Providence was awakened after birth came from Jianghu rumors. It was not very credible, but nothing was absolute. Sometimes, Jianghu rumors might be closer to the truth.
Shen Guohua was overjoyed." Elder Zhou's knowledge is truly admirable. Since you know all this, I'm sure you have a way to find Awakened ones."”
Shen Guohua was secretly glad that he had told Zhou Zhengtian about the matter on Planet Crape Myrtle. Otherwise, he would have delayed the important matter.
If the Crape Myrtle Star really descended as an Awakened, it would be great news for the current Flame Dragon Pavilion.
Reincarnators needed at least ten years to grow up from ignorant babies. With the current situation of the Flame Dragon Pavilion, it was a big problem whether they could last for five or even three years, let alone ten years.
Awakened ones were different. With the full support of the Flame Dragon Pavilion, it was possible for them to completely control the legendary Purple Myrtle True Qi in less than a year and become a trump card against the Martial Alliance.
" Well, it's said that the personalities and abilities of the Awakened on Planet Crape Myrtle are very different before and after the awakening. We just need to pay close attention to Yunxi City and see if any young man has suddenly awakened a special ability or if any young martial artist's strength has suddenly increased. Perhaps we can get an answer."”
"When I said Yunxi City, I didn't exclude outsiders or women. Anything is possible.”In order to prevent Shen Guohua from taking it out of context, Zhou Zhengtian added this sentence.
The matter of Planet Crape Myrtle was of great importance. Shen Guohua quickly nodded and said,"Elder Zhou is wise. I will immediately arrange for my subordinates to conduct a secret investigation on all the abnormal events that happened in Yunxi City in the past three days. Outsiders must also be investigated in detail. Even if they have to dig three feet into the ground, they must find the awakened person on Planet Crape Myrtle.”
Zhou Zhengtian suddenly thought of something and his expression changed. He cried out,""Not good!"
Shen Guohua mistakenly thought that he had misunderstood and made improper arrangements. He could not help but frown deeply and hurriedly asked,"Elder Zhou, could it be that my arrangements were flawed?”
Looking at Shen Guohua's anxious face, Zhou Zhengtian knew that he had misspoken. In order to avoid further misunderstandings, he hurriedly waved his hand and clarified,"There is nothing wrong with Grand Elder Shen's arrangements. It is just that this old man suddenly thought of something strange and lost his composure.”
Shen Guohua frowned and asked curiously,""Could it be related to Zi Wei Planet that you call an anomaly? Please speak frankly.”
Zhou Zhengtian didn't keep him in suspense and said bluntly,""Has Grand Secretary Shen ever heard of Xiuxianists?”
Shen Guohua pondered for a moment and said softly,""Are you talking about the cultivators who transcended the mortal world and had the ability to destroy the world in the era of the ancient gods?”
Immortal cultivators were the name given to them in metaphysics, while cultivators were the name given to them by ancient martial arts forces.
Since he knew about the Immortal Cultivators, the following topic was much easier to talk about.
Zhou Zhengtian slowly explained what had happened in the Zhou family's villa and his own speculations in detail. Fan Guohua was shocked and said with a pale face,"Could it be that the appearance of the Immortal Cultivators at this time is also for the Reincarnators of Planet Zi Wei?”
The Crape Myrtle Star had just descended yesterday, and the Immortal Cultivators had appeared today. This was too much of a coincidence. Shen Guohua and Zhou Zhengtian could not help but let their imaginations run wild, and their faces instantly darkened.
According to ancient records, in the era of the ancient gods, the fate of Planet Zi Wei was also known as the fate of the human king. It was the strongest cultivation bloodline of the human race. Those who possessed it were all cultivation geniuses. If they stepped onto the path of immortality, they could reach the Celestial Realm and stand at the top of the human race.
The two of them didn't know what the Celestial Realm was, but it wasn't hard to tell from its name that it was definitely a rather awesome existence. It was far from what the Martial Saints and True Saints of the martial arts world could compare to.
The more they thought about it, the uglier their expressions became. Everyone knew that cultivators had great abilities and it was not difficult to find the Reincarnators of Planet Zi Wei. Perhaps they had already found them. This was the main reason why Zhou Zhengtian's expression changed.
Even if they found it at the same time, how could the Flame Dragon Pavilion compete with the Xiuxianists?
Immortal cultivators were extremely powerful and had a deep foundation. Any random item they threw out would be a rare treasure. Any random divine art or Dao technique would be something that martial artists dreamed of.
If he used force to snatch it and angered the Immortal Cultivators, he would be courting death.
Zhou Zhengtian sighed deeply and comforted,""We'll do our best and leave it to fate!"
Shen Guohua nodded slightly and forced a smile."Elder Zhou is right. The Reincarnators of Planet Zi Wei are of great importance. Even if they are Immortal Cultivators, we cannot give up easily. Even if we have to use all our strength, we must snatch the Reincarnators.”
Shen Guohua didn't delay any longer and flew away.
