The elder didn't keep them in suspense, as it concerned the Ouyang family, currently the head of the eight great families of the Eastern Continent.
When they went out to train some time ago, something happened to the Ouyang family. The next heir of the Ouyang family was supposed to get married, but on the day of the wedding, Ouyang Si almost killed his Daoist partner with his own hands!
Wow!
Someone sighed, and Qin Ling, who had been deeply influenced by the Tianning folk tales lately, boldly speculated: "There must have been a man trying to steal the bride, right? Then Ouyang Si discovered that he was being cheated on, and even worse, his Daoist partner chose to elope with that man on their wedding day! So in a fit of rage, he wanted to kill that despicable couple! But... when he saw his lover's dying face, he ultimately chose to forgive her..."
Elder: "..."
What are you talking about?
It seems like his strength has increased since following Tianning, but his brain hasn't been as sharp.
"Senior Sister Qin Ling, you're still too green."
Facing his home turf, Tian Ning confidently stated, "What the elder said just now must have some basis. Therefore, I boldly guess that Ouyang Si discovered on his wedding day that his Daoist partner might have been possessed!"
“That’s right. You recently resolved the matter of Zhou Han’s possession, so the sect leader wants you to investigate the situation of the Ouyang family.” The elder glanced at Zhou Mengya behind Zhou Han and spoke.
"Moreover, it is said that Ouyang Si used many magical artifacts to detect possession, but to no avail. However, Ouyang Si has always believed that his Daoist partner has been possessed!"
"What's more troublesome is that Ouyang Si's Daoist partner seems to have also fallen into demonic possession and escaped a few days ago. Ouyang Si is currently trying every possible way to find her."
In recent years, the relationship between the Six Clans and the Eight Great Families has been lukewarm.
Compared to the six sects that focused on cultivating disciples, the eight great families were always fixated on internal strife.
Every so often, families with two surnames in the Eastern Continent would hold a selection process to determine the eight great families. After the families qualified for the eight great families were selected, they would compete among themselves to determine the ranking of the eight great families.
The elder said, "Before the academy built on the Central Continent opens, you can go and visit the Eight Great Families. It won't hurt to get some training."
The elders' talk of possession is likely about being taken over by a transmigrator. Because of the precedents of Wenren Xue and Zhou Mengya, they wanted Tian Ning and his group to go and take a look.
Tian Ning had no objections, and the others didn't say anything either. The elder then continued, "We'll decide on Zhou Mengya's matter ourselves when you return."
"As for the Eight Great Families, they should be holding a new ranking ceremony for them soon. You can go with Helian Boda from the Dan Ding Sect to the Helian family to find out the details. This year, because of the Wenren family's incident, they were removed from the Eight Great Families, so the competition should be very fierce..."
After listening to the elder's long rambling, the group split into two groups.
With Tianning's early suppression, both Taotie and Qiongqi obediently concealed their auras.
But before the elders left, they still quietly instructed their chief: "That man and the black cat seem suspicious. It's best not to let him follow you!"
The elder gave a wink, meaning that it would be best to find an opportunity to expel Taotie and Qiongqi from the group.
Everyone: "..."
They knew, but they dared not.
In this team, the only one who can keep the two ferocious beasts in check is Tian Ning!
After Xu Jiaojiao left with the elders, everyone felt that the future was shrouded in darkness, and that they would suffer double the beatings in the future. When would this end...?
Perfect timing, we haven't fought one today. Qiongqi sharpened its claws, and Taotie was ready, signaling that we could begin.
Tianning quietly took out his storybook and enjoyed the good life.
Since we've already arrived at the Eastern Continent, and the Eight Great Families aren't far from here, there's no rush.
