Shu Gaoming nodded slightly, stood up and said, "This is the end of the matter. The grudge between you and Hongyu has been resolved. Let's not entangle with each other again. It's almost time. The two of you will follow me to North City to meet with the various sects and discuss matters concerning the ancestral land. The rest of you will stay here and continue your meditation."
"Follow my brother's order!"
Everyone in the Chiyan Sect responded in unison and returned to their rooms. Shu Gaoming and the other two went out together.
"Senior Brother."
On the street, Yuan Zhong took two or three steps closer, leaned next to Shu Gaoming and whispered:
“On the way here, Junior Brother also heard about it.
The sect's original intention was just to have you go to Lu State to hold up the show, but they didn't expect Lu State to conceal the treasures of the ancestral land, causing the sect's top leaders to greatly underestimate the enemy's strength.
There are three people in the Jindan stage on the other side. It is difficult for you to take action alone. You can only watch the destruction of the Lu State. The blame is not on you.
But the situation is different now. There are still ten days before the ancestral land opens. It's still early. Since you are short of manpower, why don't you ask for help from the sect?"
"Ten days?"
Shu Gaoming shook his head and chuckled, "Where does ten days come from?"
"Isn't it the 15th of July?"
Yuan Zhong was stunned. Seeing that Shu Gaoming no longer explained, he turned to look at Xiang Hongyu who had remained silent.
"Elder, I only have a vague understanding of the specific situation."
Xiang Hongyu looked ashamed. "Once we get to North City and meet the various forces, the elders should be able to understand the reason."
Yuan Zhong didn't respond well, and his words were filled with disdain. "Junior Brother Xiang, you've been following me for so long, you should at least improve your judgment. Otherwise, even if you're one of the ten inner sect disciples, your future advancement will be hopeless."
Xiang Hongyu lowered his head and said, "Brother Yuan is right."
"The name changes so quickly."
Yuan Zhong snorted softly and ignored him with a flick of his sleeves.
A moment later, looking at the ruins of the northern city, disciples of the sect could be seen patrolling everywhere.
As soon as Yuan Zhong and Shu Gaoming stepped onto the ruins, they immediately felt an unusual and murderous aura coming towards them, and their expression changed slightly.
Before he could speak, Yuan Zhong saw a flash of light before his eyes, and a person appeared out of nowhere.
"Senior Brother Shu."
The man who came was very young, with bright eyes and confidence. It was obvious at first glance that he was a man of extraordinary talent.
He bowed to Shu Gaoming with a respectful attitude, then stood up and said with a warm smile, "I heard that Senior Brother Shu would be leading the team this time, so I rushed all the way here at full speed. After saying goodbye to Guijian, I hope you are doing well, Senior Brother?"
"It turned out to be Junior Brother Wan."
Shu Gaoming nodded with a smile, "Junior Brother Wan had a wonderful encounter in Ghost Gorge, and his cultivation has become even more profound."
"What are you talking about, Brother Shu?"
The young man surnamed Wan quickly waved his hands and said, "Junior brother is still young and needs more help from Senior Brother Shu."
Yuan Zhong felt his scalp tingling as he watched.
Back in Guijian, Senior Brother Shu had a tragic accident and his chance was snatched away by Wan Lingmo, and the incident became known to everyone. I'm afraid he must have killed him a million times in his heart.
Now when the enemies meet, they call each other senior and junior brothers, and their attitudes are more cordial and enthusiastic than the other. If you don’t know, you would think they are brothers.
"Hey, are you Hongyu?"
Wan Lingmo suddenly turned around and saw Xiang Hongyu, with a look of surprise on his face, "I didn't expect you to come here too."
Shu Gaoming narrowed his eyes slightly and asked in surprise, "Are you two old acquaintances?"
Xiang Hongyu secretly cursed. Wan Lingmo had already seen him and was calling him now, which was obviously intentional.
"Brother Shu, you don't know this."
Wan Lingmo looked at Xiang Hongyu with a smile on his face, "Come to think of it, I am Hongyu's cousin."
"I dare not, I dare not. Senior Brother Wan is now a core disciple of Fengyue Sect. Please don't embarrass me."
Xiang Hongyu's forehead was covered with cold sweat. He waved his hands repeatedly and said, "Brother Shu, it's a coincidence that Brother Wan is a descendant of my father's wife's mother's family. Speaking of which, we haven't seen each other for eighteen years. I didn't expect Brother Wan to still remember me."
Yuan Zhong listened and nodded secretly.
Xiang Hongyu is not completely stupid. On the surface, these words seem to be reminiscing about the past, but in fact, he is trying to distance himself from Wan Lingmo. Otherwise, this guy would have a hard time under Shu Gaoming.
Shu Gaoming nodded slightly, his expression unchanged, but his tone lighter. "Fate is truly marvelous. Junior Brother Wan, entering the ancestral land is crucial right now, not the time to reminisce. Let's go in and talk."
Wan Lingmo smiled slightly and extended his hand, "Please!"
