...

"If not, why did Elder Yu come forward until now?" Xu Zhenping asked rebelliously.

"Hmph~" Yu You snorted coldly and replied: "I have been comprehending the alchemy in the room. The six senses are locked tightly. I don't know what happened. If I hadn't woken up and saw so many people surrounding Wancaotang, how could I have arrived at Elder Wang's room?"

Looking at Yu You's cold and firm expression, Ou Chuyang observed his face and found nothing wrong, and the true soul power did not find the breath of the dead soul in Yu You's body.

Ou Chuyang said: "It was not done by Elder Yu."

He suddenly spoke, and everyone's eyes attracted everyone's attention again. This refuted Xu Zhenping's analysis, which made Xu Zhenping even more angry.

"You know again?"

"Of course." He gave Xu Zhenping a blank look. Ou Chuyang looked at Xu Zhenheng and explained: "Anyone who has absorbed the power of the soul will carry the breath of the dead soul of the dead. This breath cannot be concealed by any holy weapon. Moreover, the absorbing power of the soul must be refined immediately. Otherwise, with Wang Changdi's cultivation, the soul power will definitely soar into the sky and fight with the last trace of soul to tell the person who harmed him. Elder Yu You did not have the dead soul aura of the dead soul, which means that he did not absorb the soul of the Wang Elder, so it was naturally not his hand. According to Qingyi's sight, the person who harmed Elder Wang must have left Wancaotang as soon as he killed him and found a place to refine Elder Wang's soul."

Everyone listened word by word, recalling Ou Chuyang's words repeatedly. Through the perception of his soul power, there was indeed no one present who was deceased as Ou Chuyang said.

The well-founded statement made everyone believe it. Xu Zhenping had no reason to refute it, so he could only stare at Ou Chuyang in secret. Xu Zhenheng thought about it for a while and suddenly said, "Okay, since the murderer can't be found, there is no need for everyone to stay here. Go back, what should you do, elders, stay."

After giving an order, everyone retreated, leaving only Ou Chuyang, Xu Zhenheng and the elders of the Xu family in the room.

"Xu Qian, Xu Kong." After the crowd left, Xu Zhenheng called the two of them.

"Honor~"

"Tomorrow will be a contract battle, let this go in advance, but I am afraid that the person who assassinated Elder Wang Yang has other plans. We cannot help but pass on my order. Apart from those who participated in the contract battle, the rest of the people will step up their protection against the Xuanguang Top day and night, especially the entrances of the ancient monuments, and we must send more people to the point of not being able to do so."

“Yes, the head of the family.”

"And." Xu Zhenheng's eyes turned to Xu Yanguang and said: [Pencil Novel www.qbxs.me] "Guang'er, you will bring all the candidates involved in the contract battle into the Golden Light Hall, and the elders will also go. Without my order, from now on, you will not be allowed to leave the hall. The cultivation will be carried out in the hall. Tomorrow morning, go to the ancient monuments together."

"Yes, father." Xu Yanguang received the order.

After giving the order, Xu Zhenheng looked at Ou Chuyang and said, "Elder Qingyi, you~"

"Head of the Family." Ou Chuyang knew that Xu Zhenheng wanted him to enter the Golden Light Hall, but he did not want to stay with Xu Zhenping for a day. Moreover, he needed to prepare for tomorrow's ancient sites, so he interrupted: "Head of the Family, there is no need for Qingyi."

"Well. It's good, I believe that with Mr. Qingyi's strength, no matter how strong the person comes, he would not dare to take action." Xu Zhenheng nodded and said, "Let's do it, everyone will disperse."

With Xu Zhenheng's order, everyone parted in disagreement, and Ou Chuyang returned to Xuantian Pavilion while thinking.

Along the way, Ou Chuyang was full of sorrow. He thought that Wang Yang's death was not a good thing. The contract battle was imminent. Although the Wushen Tower was closed, who knew whether Shuying and Gantian and Gandi would send people to infiltrate the two major families? What he feared most was that at this critical moment, Shuying's strength was restored and he would attack. By then, he had not yet obtained the strength to fight with him, so it would be troublesome.

After thinking about it, Ou Chuyang overturned his thoughts again. If Shuying really recovered, how could he use such trouble? With his powerful strength of the gods' energy, he would still have to be afraid of the gods' aristocratic family? Therefore, Ou Chuyang concluded that Shuying had not come out yet.

But who is trying to harm Wang Yang?

After thinking about it, Ou Chuyang couldn't think of any reason. In desperation, he could only return to Xuantian Pavilion with a hint of doubt.

After returning, Ou Chuyang found that Duan Yuanzhong and Bu Gong were neither there, and before that, the two did not appear in Wancaotang.

Just as he was thinking, Duan Yuanzhong appeared, Ou Chuyang greeted him and said, "Brother Jin."

Duan Yuanzhong was still hiding his identity, and Ou Chuyang could only use his original name.

"Elder Qingyi." Duan Yuanzhong gave a respectful gift, and this behavior was for outsiders to see.

"No need, there is no one here." Ou Chuyang waved his hand and asked, "Where has Bu Gong been?"

Duan Yuanzhong replied: "In the purple gold flower garden."

Upon hearing this, Ou Chuyang said in confusion: "Where are you doing at this time?"

Duan Yuanzhong shook his head and said, "I don't know, but yesterday I heard that he could see the bottle power of the Level 6 alchemist, and maybe he wanted to break through."

"Oh, is there such a thing?" Ou Chuyang said in surprise when he heard this.

"Yes. Bu Gong can make it through to the seventh level alchemist." Duan Yuanzhong sighed.

"I understand." Ou Chuyang said, and then returned to his room. After walking halfway, thinking about the word "Sulf Yuan" that appeared on his desk in Luotian Pavilion before, Ou Chuyang stopped suddenly and asked in a low voice: "Brother Jin, have you ever been to my room to find me when I was in Luotian Pavilion?"

"No." Duan Yuanzhong wondered why Ou Chuyang asked him this, and asked with confusion: "Why do you ask this?"

"Oh, nothing, just ask casually."

"By the way, I heard from Bu Gong that Elder Yu You had come to find you." After thinking about it, Duan Yuanzhong suddenly said something more.

"Oh? I understand." After responding, Ou Chuyang turned around and returned to his room.

The next morning, the sun shone brightly.

Although Wang Yang's death cast a strange suspicion on the entire Xuanguang Pavilion Xu family, the arrival of the contract battle made all the Xu family temporarily forget this "small matter".

Under the breeze, a group of strong men full of fighting spirit appeared from the Golden Light Hall and came to the square in front of the hall, standing neatly.

The four high-level martial gods in front are the three elders headed by Xu Zhenping, and Xu Yaoguang, who was newly promoted to the peak of martial arts.

Among the seven intermediate martial gods in the central center are Xu Jie'er and Xu Yanguang.

Finally, standing behind these more than ten people were thirty-three core disciples of the Xu family who had the realm of the first-level martial gods.

In the contract battle, except for the almost harsh requirements for the number of people on the first floor of the ancient battlefield, the other two floors do not have too rigorous statements. However, for the sake of security, the strong people brought in by the two major families are almost all of the families. For the sake of contract, as the children of the God family, they can fight with their lives. This is not only a matter of glory, but the key is that it also contains the persistence of the Jinling Authentic Sect.

After waiting quietly for a while, Xu Zhenheng and Ou Chuyang rushed over one after another. When Xu Zhenheng appeared in the square in front of the hall, the atmosphere in the entire square changed suddenly, and the fighting spirit in the eyes of all the strong men instantly soared to the extreme.

With a hundred-year agreement, just this battle, whether there will be a top-notch powerful man in the family who can ascend to Tianwu depends on today.

Without too many words, Xu Zhenheng just glanced with his extremely majestic gaze, waved his big hand decisively, and said loudly: "Follow me to enter the ancient sites."

“Yes~”

After dozens of strong men shouted in unison, dozens of figures rushed straight to the entrance of the forbidden area under the anticipation and blessings of more than a thousand people from the Xu family.

The strong fighting spirit filled the entire mysterious light for a long time, and dozens of dazzling lights appeared in the sky in the sky, just like the amazing cultivation level emitted by the bodies of these dozens of strong people.

In the blink of an eye, the Hurricane Canyon on the Luoyue Ancient Road came into view.

Without anyone stopping, everyone quickly arrived at the "man"-shaped entrance of the canyon.

On the right side, the same number of strong men rushed over, and it was the Duan family in Tianshui Peak headed by Duan Yuankuo.

When the two strong men met, their fighting spirit emerged, and they looked at each other, and an astonishing murderous intent rose into the sky.

Xu Zhenheng and Duan Yuankuo looked at each other from afar, smiled at each other, walked up to say hello.

"Brother Duan~"

"Brother Xu~"

The two waved their hands at the same time, and then someone stood out from the team, followed by a loud and loud dragon roar.

"A disciple of aristocratic family obeyed the order and quickly withdrew from the canyon."

After this dragon roar containing powerful internal strength sounded, countless powerful people living deep in the canyon practice day and night, flew out one after another like mushrooms after a rain. As they soared into the sky, they looked at the two powerful people coming and going here without looking at each other.

"Please~"

They made a "please" gesture with each other, and Xu Zhenheng and Duan Yuankuo each took their disciples from their clan and rushed to the entrance of the ancient monument at full speed.

The first to enter the Hurricane Canyon was consumed much in the canyon. Xu Zhenheng and Duan Yuankuo took out a stone with exquisite appearance but strange smell from their arms. The stone was six sides, and it was engraved with simple runes. It was the key used to open the gate of the ancient monument.

At the same time, the two of them took out the key, and then they threw out the key with a slight hand.

The two keys emitted a crisp sharp sound, and then under Ou Chuyang's attention, it quickly integrated like two opposite magnets of Yin and Yang poles.

The keys intersected, and a purple-gold light rose into the sky. The next moment, a rich purple thunder aura emanated from the combined key, instantly eliminating the hurricane in the canyon.

The hurricane that could distinguish the breath of the visitor and its strength disappeared invisible in the blink of an eye. The narrow hurricane canyon was silent, as quiet as a long ancient road, without the slightest sound of the wind.

Ou Chuyang saw it and couldn't help but exclaim in his heart. Although the energy of this key is not strong, it has the power to shelter from the wind, and it should not be an ordinary treasure.

Just as they were thinking, the two sides had already set off and rushed towards the entrance. Before that, the key was driven by the two masters, as if they were spiritually, and they were the first to open the road and head straight to the end of the canyon.

The thick black fog is quietly imprinted in the space in a vortex shape, without any support. The black halo at the entrance of the ancient monument is like a mirror that does not reflect the image, blocking the inside of the canyon and the monument, becoming a unique barrier.

Seriously floating in the air, Xu Zhenheng and Duan Yuankuo looked at the black halo, their eyes full of fighting spirit. The key slowly floated down over the halo until the center of the halo stopped.

The faint purple thunder aura emits incomprehensible energy and slowly spreads out. As a result, the black halo gradually becomes thinner and then becomes transparent. As the black barrier gate continues to change, the energy in the key becomes less and less. After a long time, the key finally exerts the last trace of residual heat and becomes dull. Then, after a crisp sound, it separates again and is taken into the hands of the two masters.

Xu Zhenheng looked at the secret stone that had become ordinary in his hand and said to Duan Yuankuo: "Brother Duan, the energy of the key has been absorbed, and the ban on the ancient battlefield has been opened. Let them go in."

Duan Yuankuo nodded, turned his eyes to Ou Chuyang, and joked: "What? Elder Qingyi is going to go in too?"

Ou Chuyang did not answer, but just smiled undeniably.

Xu Zhenheng said: "Qingyi has already signed an in-law with Jie'er girl, and he is considered half of the Xu family. In addition, it is reasonable for each family to bring a alchemist in the battle of contract. Didn't Brother Duan also bring Elder Qingyun?"

Xu Zhenheng was talking about an old man standing behind Duan Yuankuo. This man was an elder of the Duan Family Medicine Hall. Like Yu You, Wang Yang and others of the Xu family, they were all seventh-level alchemists under the rule of the aristocratic family.

Although Qingyun had never seen the name Qingyi before, he had seen the shocking alchemy disaster in the Xu family at that time. After Duan Yuankuo returned to Tianshui Peak, he even told Ou Chuyang's achievement as an eighth-level alchemist. However, Qingyun, who was originally arrogant, was frightened and rushed to Ou Chuyang when he saw the first eighth-level alchemist in the mainland.

He bowed and gave a big gift, Qingyun, whose hair was already gray, said respectfully: "Isn't it that Qingyun has ever met Lord Qingyi."

There is a rule for the alchemy lineage. When two alchemists meet, they do not need to examine their martial arts skills. They all determine their identity and status based on alchemy cultivation. Although Qingyun is a seventh-level alchemist and is the top in the mainland, when he sees Ou Chuyang, he still has to bow as a weak scholar.

Now, Ou Chuyang, a level 8 alchemist, naturally knew this unwritten rule. Seeing Qingyun so respectful, he reached out and asked, "No need, get up."

"Thank you, Lord Qingyi." Qingyun told, retreating to the side.

Duan Yuankuo smiled and said, "Since that's the case, it's good that the contract battle is rare in a century. Mr. Qingyi thinks it's all about watching the battle. Head of the Xu family, let's go in."

"Yeah." Xu Zhenheng nodded and turned around to remind Ou Chuyang: "Qingyi, the first level of ancient battlefield only allows the first-level martial god to take action. When you get inside, no matter what happens, don't take action, otherwise the consequences will be very serious."

"Okay." Ou Chuyang nodded.

"Let's go."

With the order of Xu Zhenheng and Duan Yuankuo, the two heads of the family, the nearly 100 powerful martial gods team rushed towards the black halo at the same time.

The cold light flashed violently, and a biting coldness hit the body. Everyone entered the ancient monument.
