Chapter 1077 Unexpected
---------..
Many thanks to Xing Haiyun (100) and Shunshun 666 (100) for their rewards!
Xu Ziyan stepped into the hall with one foot, and with a "hula", all the monks inside jumped up from their chairs in shock and excitement. Xu Ziyan smiled at everyone and walked slowly to the main seat in the middle. Xu Qinglian had already stepped aside. Xu Ziyan sat down slowly and motioned for everyone to sit down. After the big furniture was seated, Xu Ziyan looked at his grandfather Xu Dingtian and said, "Are the family members okay?"
"No!" Xu Dingtian said calmly, "It's just that they're all locked up here. Hehe..."
Xu Ziyan nodded and felt relieved. But she was very puzzled why Xu Dingtian was still laughing when he was locked up here? But everyone in the family is fine, and my parents must be fine as well. Looking at Xu Dingtian, he asked: "Wang Zonglie did this, or was it Xing Fan's order?"
"It's Xing Fan's order, he told everyone to stay here temporarily." Xu Dingtian said leisurely.
Xu Ziyan frowned slightly, thought for a while, but didn't understand why Xu Xingfan did this. Ling Yijian's performance just now made Xu Ziyan's heart tense, but then he was relieved. He absolutely did not believe that Xu Xingfan would cooperate with outsiders to deal with him for rights. But why did Xu Xingfan do this? A trace of irritability arose in Xu Ziyan's heart.
"What did Xing Fan tell you?"
Xu Dingtian said: "Hehe...Zi Yan, Xing Fan has grown up, you should ask him about this, hehe..."
"Huh?" Xu Ziyan looked at Xu Dingtian strangely, but she didn't ask deeply, a smile flashed across the corner of her mouth, and said in her heart: "It seems that the matter is not as serious as I imagined, and I'm afraid it will still make me look forward to it."
"By the way!" Xu Dingtian said suddenly: "Zi Yan, don't worry about your parents, they are with us and are not controlled by Wang Zonglie!"
"Huh?" This is the second time Xu Ziyan was surprised.
"We learned some of the Central Plains Shenji Sect's transformation technique from City Master Shen Qianji. Your parents are staying with Shen Qianji now. As for the two people controlled by Wang Zonglie, they are two distracted cultivators from the Xu family. It's just using a breath-suppressing talisman. Wang Zonglie's subordinates guarding them are only cultivators at the transformation stage, they can leave at any time!"
After hearing what Xu Dingtian said, Xu Ziyan looked forward to meeting Xu Xingfan even more. Now I know that my parents are safe. Not in a hurry to meet, Xu Ziyan stood up from the chair, and said lightly: "You wait for me here, don't take any action, I'll go and see."
words fall,
Walking towards the door, ten little Guteng who were distracted in the late stage. And Ling Yijian and others all followed Xu Ziyan.
On the main peak of Lianhua Peak, in Xu Ziyan's main hall, more than 20 leaders of various forces gathered here to discuss how to face the attack of the ghost world. Wang Zonglie is undoubtedly the most powerful of these forces, but he has not completely condensed these forces into one rope.
The leaders of these forces are also overlords, and they are not so easy to submit. Therefore, he also needed Xu Xingfan's cooperation very much. If Wang Zonglie and Xu Xingfan are fully united, these forces can be temporarily unified. Over time, it is entirely possible to incorporate these forces into one's own camp.
It is impossible for Wang Zonglie to completely wipe out the Xu family, not to mention that the strength of the Xu family is not weak. If he did that, his strength would be greatly depleted. The important thing is, who knows if the Xu family still has a hole card, and now they have not pushed the Xu family to the bottom line. Therefore, the ideal is to marry Xu Xingfan.
He also got to know the Xu family these days, knowing that there are two kings in the Xu family. One is Xu Ziyan and the other is Xu Xingfan. Moreover, Xu Xingfan has been suppressed by Xu Ziyan all the time, and Wang Zonglie pushes others with himself. He doesn't believe that Xu Xingfan is willing to be suppressed by Xu Ziyan all the time. so. So they talked openly and honestly with Xu Xingfan.
However, Xu Xingfan seemed to be very hesitant, which made Wang Zonglie very contemptuous, and he thought to himself, no wonder you have been suppressed by Xu Ziyan, a little girl. However, Xu Xingfan proposed to get the Xu family together first. Let him do the work slowly, he does not want to have fierce conflicts within the Xu family, because the Xu family has very few people and cannot stand the toss.
Wang Zonglie nodded in agreement, and then proposed the idea of betrothing his daughter to Xu Xingfan. Xu Xingfan was noncommittal, but said that he would discuss this matter after he completely unified the Xu family.
In this way, Wang Zonglie and the Xu family did not achieve the ideal union, so they did not have an absolute advantage over the remaining twenty or so forces. Although Wang Zonglie was in a hurry, he couldn't force the twenty or so forces. If they were forced to unite, they might not be attacked by the ghost world, and their fight in the nest would kill them all.
Therefore, in these days, these leaders have been gathering here, and everyone is arguing with each other. In fact, all parties want to earn the maximum benefit for themselves.
Xu Xingfan sat lazily on the main seat, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and occasionally a hint of sarcasm flashed in his eyes when others were not paying attention. During Xu Ziyan's departure, Xu Xingfan's cultivation base is already in the middle stage of distraction because of taking the elixir. Among the monks present, such a cultivation base is not considered weak.
And the smile on Xu Xingfan's face all the time made all the monks present vigilant. The story of Xu Ziyan, the king, is that they have not seen or heard of it. They didn't believe that Xu Xingfan, who was also a king, would have no cards at all!
However, Xu Xingfan behaved extremely harmless to humans and animals, always smiling. Moreover, he never expressed his opinion. One of the messages revealed by his appearance is that the Xu family and Wang Zonglie have not united yet, which made the twenty or so forces a little more thoughtful. The voice of competing for interests has also become a bit louder.
They didn't dare to snatch all kinds of herbs in the Lotus Peak of the Xu family like Wang Zonglie. But they want to compete for the ghost beads that kill the Rakshasa in the ghost world. After each battle, the ground is full of ghost beads. This can't be whoever grabs it at that time, right? So, this requires distribution.
In addition, the attacks of the ghost world became more and more intense every time, even the Lotus Peak did not know how long it would be able to last, so the defensive position was different, and the strength of the loss was also different, these were all areas to contend for. Besides, the Xu family can't always hide on the mountain, shouldn't they also come out to take on the task of defense?
Wang Zonglie also tried several times to completely subdue these forces, but failed. He also wanted to unite with Xu Xingfan as soon as possible. However, Xu Xingfan always shirks, saying that he hasn't done his family work well. If the family monks are released at this time. When they see that it is you, Wang Zonglie, not Xu Xingfan who are in charge here, they may immediately riot, which will affect the alliance between the two.
This made Wang Zonglie very helpless, and he had great ambitions. As soon as he entered the Xu family land, the greed in his heart unstoppably surfaced. His plan is to marry his daughter to Xu Xingfan, and then join forces with the Xu family to suppress the monks who fled here, and finally subdue all the forces here.
At that time, he will be able to leave the Cangmang Trading Company and establish a sect here, and he will be the founder of the mountain. He is no longer the second boss of Cangmang Trading Company. By that time, with the power he subdued, the Xu family was already vulnerable. If Xu Xingfan is sensible, give him the position of deputy suzerain. If not, he doesn't mind killing the entire Xu family at that time. Anyway, by that time, the Xu family's use value was gone.
At this time, it was not himself who was sitting in Wang Zonglie's position, but his younger brother Wang Zongyan. Wang Zonglie himself is sitting in Xu Ziyan's practice room at this time. Xu Ziyan never opened the restriction of the practice room except when he was retreating. Because in Xu Ziyan's heart, no one will break into his practice room. This gave Wang Zonglie a chance, where he discovered the Eye of Earth Qi.
And Wang Zonglie is the spiritual root of the earth system. At this time, he is practicing in Xu Ziyan's practice room, and he handed over the matter of wrangling with various forces to his younger brother. He knew that it was useless even if he was present at this time, everything had to wait for Xu Xingfan to agree to marry his daughter and join hands with him.
And he has also spread rumors through his subordinates these days, saying that in order to preserve the strength of his Xu family, Xu Xingfan put all the monks of the Xu family on the mountain and did not participate in a war against the ghost world. Now some forces have proposed to ask the Xu family to join the war. It must not be long before Xu Xingfan will succumb to himself, and then is the time for him to appear. Before that, it is better to practice more in Xu Ziyan's practice room, which is a great opportunity for oneself.
In the main hall of the main peak, after Wang Zongyan spoke impassionedly again, he saw that the leaders of all parties were indifferent. Then he looked at Xu Xingfan who was sitting in the main seat with a begging look. However, Xu Xingfan still sat there smiling, not saying a word.
Wang Zongyan gritted his teeth and said with a smile on his face: "Patriarch Xu, just now a fellow Taoist suggested that the Xu family should also share some defensive tasks. They can't always hide on the mountain. Look..."
Xu Xingfan's smile froze, and a trace of helplessness and killing intent flashed in his eyes. However, it was only for a moment, and then he returned to his smiling face, and said lightly: "You can't decide this matter, you'd better wait for me to discuss it with your brother!"
"Okay!" A trace of hostility flashed across Wang Zongyan's face. He lost his composure, and said coldly, "I'm going to look for my brother right now. Today we are bound to come to a conclusion."
After saying that, he turned around and walked out of the hall. The 20 leaders of various forces in the main hall all showed nervous expressions on their faces, and they all knew in their hearts that this time it might be a complete showdown between Wang Zonglie and Xu Xingfan. And Xu Xingfan looked at the back of Wang Zongyan who was leaving, with a murderous look in his slightly squinted eyes.
And at this moment, the guard outside the main hall shouted sharply: "Who is it? This is..."
