After Lu Xiaoran sat down, the sect leader spoke.

"I guess you all already know why I summoned you all here this time?"

Many elders nodded.

The leader then said:

"The White Bone Demon Sect was destroyed overnight. Not a single disciple escaped. Even the entire mountain was flattened."

As soon as these words were spoken, there were many exclamations in the hall.

Because not all elders know about this.

Those who knew about this still felt their scalps tingling with shock when they heard it again.

After a while, the sect master knocked on the handle of the chair, and everyone gradually fell silent. The sect master spoke again:

"This matter has caused shock among many sects. After all, no nearby sect can destroy the White Bone Demon Sect overnight, unless it is one of the top sects in the Great Zhou. However, if a sect mobilizes on a large scale, we will not be able to fail to sense it."

"So, I and the leaders of several sects have speculated that the White Bone Demon Sect has most likely offended a powerful person. This person is extremely powerful and must be at least a strong man above the Kanli realm!"

"hiss!"

Everyone couldn't help but gasp in unison.

In this area, there actually appeared a strong man who was capable of leaving the realm. Doesn't that mean he is a person who can walk sideways?

You should know that among the several nearby sects, the one with the strongest cultivation level is Yang Renjie, the supreme elder of the Kaoshan Sect next door, who has reached the fifth level of the Delusion Breaking Realm.

For a moment, people were in panic, fearing that one day they would meet that peerless boss and destroy them.

In the entire hall, Lu Xiaoran was the only one who remained calm because he knew the truth of the matter.

"In view of this situation, I want to say here that any elders and disciples of our Tianmo Sect should not conflict with anyone during this period of time. If a conflict occurs, you will be fully responsible. Even if you are cut into pieces, our Tianmo Sect will not help you."

"Moreover, with such a big incident, the royal family may soon send someone to investigate. All of us disciples of the Heavenly Demon Sect must claim that we knew nothing about it and absolutely do not bring trouble upon ourselves. Do you understand?"

"I understand."

"That's fine. Okay, the above is the content of today's gathering. Everyone go back to your respective peaks and pass it on to your disciples."

"The meeting is adjourned."

Until the sect leader announced the adjournment of the meeting, the elders were still discussing as they walked out.

It is estimated that this matter will become a hot topic of conversation among people for at least a few days.

Lu Xiaoran was also about to leave, but was stopped by the sect leader.

"Xiao Ran, wait a moment, I have something to tell you."

"yes."

Lu Xiaoran stopped, and the sect leader smiled kindly and said:

"Have you needed anything recently? I see you've been staying at Zhishui Peak and haven't come down often."

Lu Xiaoran responded:

"I don't have enough talent, so I should be more diligent. While I'm still young and my blood is strong, I should improve my cultivation."

The clan leader nodded with satisfaction.

"Yes, it's the best if you think so. For a martial artist, besides talent, the most important thing is diligence."

After a pause, he raised his eyebrows slightly and asked deliberately:

"Um, Xiao Ran, have you ever thought about improving your strength quickly?"

Lu Xiaoran frowned slightly.

"Of course I do, but it's not that easy to improve your strength quickly."

"It's not that difficult. As long as you get some rare natural treasures and refine them, you can save a lot of time in cultivation."

Lu Xiaoran was stunned, and then he vaguely guessed something.

The clan leader probably wanted to give him some natural treasures. However, the clan leader would not be so kind as to simply give him things.

"Does the Sect Master have anything that he wants Xiao Ran to do?"

The clan leader coughed lightly and smiled with his eyes narrowed.

"After all, it's Xiao Ran. The elders praised you for your intelligence before. You are indeed smart."

After a pause, he spoke again:

"That's right, Xuanwu Zhenzong, you've heard of it, right?"

Lu Xiaoran nodded.

"Of course I have heard of it. Xuanwu Zhenzong is one of the top first-class sects in our Great Zhou. Not only does it have many masters, but it is also proficient in alchemy and formations. In our Great Zhou, many mountain gates' mountain protection formations are all managed by Xuanwu Zhenzong."

The clan leader nodded with satisfaction.

"Yes, you understand it very well. The Xuanwu Zhenzong is currently preparing to hold a formation conference and invite many sects in the Great Zhou Dynasty who are accomplished in formation to come and learn about formations. If you can shine at this conference, you will receive very generous rewards."

Lu Xiaoran's face couldn't help but twitch violently.

He doesn't want to attend any kind of formation conference, and he doesn't want to shine?

Is this a joke?

His biggest purpose in life is to survive!

If I go to Xuanwu Zhenzong and become famous in one battle, wouldn't it cause me a lot of trouble?

From now on, wherever you go, the good ones will respectfully call you Master Lu, while the bad ones will directly challenge you.

Are you the Master Lu who has profound attainments in formations? Come on, let's practice.

If I were to accidentally kill someone in public, I would probably become the target of public criticism immediately.

"Master, my attainments in formations are just so-so. There are many people in Xuanwu Zhenzong who are better than me. We should not go there. If we don't perform well, won't it be embarrassing?"

The sect leader patted Lu Xiaoran on the shoulder.

"I believe in your ability. You will definitely get a good ranking in the conference. It's decided. If you can get a good ranking, in addition to the reward from Xuanwu Zhenzong, my Tianmo Sect will give you another reward."

Lu Xiaoran's face turned dark, and a bitter feeling rose in his heart.

He doesn't want any reward, he just wants to develop quietly.

Damn it, if I had known earlier that when I was setting up the formation, I should have used one-tenth of its level instead of half of it.

He overestimated the level of the Demonic Sect's formation.

As a result, now I have gotten myself into such a big trouble.

People are afraid of becoming famous just like pigs are afraid of getting fat. Once you become famous, nothing good will happen.

But, forget it. After all, the sect leader is nice to me, so I'll just go through the motions.

After going there, I would just use 10% or 20% of my formation skills to get a score of dozens and fool around.

After all, the Demonic Sect has trained me for so many years, so it would be a small reward.

Thinking of this, he could only bow to the sect master and said:

"In that case, then I will listen to the Sect Master. I will do my best when the time comes."

"Okay! Then we'll go together next month. In order to ensure your best performance, you should stop practicing this month and focus on practicing the formations. Try to get the best results in the Assembly Mountain. I'll ask the treasury to allocate 300,000 high-quality spirit stones for you to practice with."

"Thank you, Master."
