A few days later.

Liu Heng, his wife An Ning and the escort King Xiong came to Zhoujiabao again.

Liu Hang met with Zhou Ruyu, the head of the Zhou family, in the study room and gave a detailed report on Shen Yihe's death.

"The casual cultivator Shen Yihe concealed his cultivation and joined our Xuanyang Sect. He must have ulterior motives and evil intentions. Moreover, this person actually attacked Hou Dongsheng, the eldest elder of our sect without any reason. He was caught by the head of the Law Enforcement Hall Yue Hall, so he was arrested and brought to justice. But instead of confessing, Shen Yihe violently insulted Hall Master Yue. In anger, Hall Master Yue killed him as a warning to others. "

Liu Heng finished speaking with saliva flying around.

Zhou Ruyu just said calmly: "Then Shen Yihe is hiding his cultivation with evil intentions. Is your Xuanyang Sect also hiding his strength with ulterior motives and evil intentions?"

Liu Heng hurriedly explained: "Master Mingjian, our Xuanyang Sect only has a dozen big cats and kittens, how dare we have any ulterior motives? Master is aware of everything and will never wrongly accuse his subordinates."

Zhou Ruyu waved his hand: "That's all! You go back first, I will make my own decision on this matter."

"Yes!" Liu Heng agreed respectfully, turned and left.

"Wait a minute!"

Zhou Ruyu suddenly called out to him.

Liu Heng stopped and slowly turned his head: "Does the master have any other instructions?"

Zhou Ruyu said kindly: "Master Liu, you are so tired from traveling and traveling, don't rush back. Please stay for two days before leaving."

Liu Heng hurriedly expressed gratitude: "Thank you very much for your support!"

Zhou Ruyu said again: "I'll ask the butler to take you around."

Liu Heng agreed excitedly.

The housekeeper took Liu Heng to wander around the manor.

Liu Heng asked: "The scenery here is so beautiful!"

The housekeeper smiled and said, "The master is joking. Our head, the Zhou family, spent a lot of money to buy this manor back then. Now, more than a hundred years have passed, and things and people here have long changed."

Liu Heng said with emotion: “It’s so beautiful here!”

The butler said: "If the master likes it, just come here more often in the future."

"Okay, okay, thank you housekeeper." Liu Heng promised.

Liu Heng and the housekeeper were chatting about the beautiful scenery here.

Zhou Ruyu took An Ning to the back hill of Zhoujia Fort.

The back mountain is not only pleasant in scenery, but also extremely quiet.

"Mrs. An, what do you think of the scenery on this mountain?" Zhou Ruyu pointed to the distance and said.

An Ning nodded: "It is indeed beautiful! This mountain forest is so beautiful, and the surrounding scenery is carefully planted. It is really enviable."

Zhou Ruyu laughed: "Mrs. An, this place used to be a barren mountain, but it didn't look like this."

An Ning was surprised: "What's going on?"

Zhou Ruyu said: "At that time, my father came back from traveling abroad and met a female cultivator. The two fell in love, became a Taoist couple, and lived together. At that time, my father was very happy, and he always regarded the woman as his palm. The treasure was raised as a gift. But later, the woman betrayed her father for some unknown reason and got together with a casual cultivator. The two of them became a couple and lived happily. My father was heartbroken, so he placed his love on her and built this place. A manor."

Zhou Ruyu continued: "However, even though my father has lost his beloved wife in recent years, he still can't let go of that woman in his heart."

"Uncle is really an infatuated person." An Ning said with a smile.

Zhou Ruyu grabbed An Ning's hand and said affectionately: "Actually, I am too."

"Uh." An Ning withdrew her hand in embarrassment, her cheeks turned red, and she lowered her head shyly, with a shy expression.

Zhou Ruyu couldn't help but stare at An Ning's shy look: "My wife! You are so beautiful! You are as beautiful as a fairy."

When An Ning heard Zhou Ruyu's praise, she felt even more ashamed. Her face became even redder and she wished she could find a hole to crawl in.

Seeing her shy look, Zhou Ruyu became more and more itchy and reached out to hug her.

An Ning took a step back and escaped.

"Madam." Zhou Ruyu was a little disappointed.

An Ning said: "Master Zhou, I still feel that the two of us are not suitable for each other. I have a husband and you also have a family. Moreover, you are the head of the clan. The difference in status between the two of us is too big."

Zhou Ruyu interrupted An Ning and said, "Mrs. An, you don't have to worry, we will never be separated."

"This." An Ning hesitated.

Zhou Ruyu said eagerly: "Madam, don't you like me?"

"No, no," An Ning said in a panic.

Zhou Ruyu continued: "Mrs. An, I hope you can give me a chance to take good care of you."

An Ning said: "It won't work."

"Why?"

"Because. I'm already married to my husband."

“I can’t care about it”

"But I care"

"Why are you so fussy? This isn't the first time."

"Master...us."

Zhou Ruyu suddenly stood up and hugged An Ning tightly.

The overbearing family leader Zhou Ruyu cannot refuse!

An Ning's body started to tremble, and she gasped and said, "Master, Liu Heng is also here."

"It's okay but the housekeeper is watching the scenery with him." Zhou Ruyu explained.

"But I still feel it's inappropriate. What if Liu Heng suddenly discovers the secret between us?" An Ning said worriedly.

Zhou Ruyu was silent, and after a moment he said: "If that day comes, I will protect you even if I die!"

"Brother Ruyu."

"Sister An Ning."

"There happens to be no one in the back hill."

"Um……"

…

Wangfeng Valley.

Suddenly more than twenty foundation-building monks came and surrounded the entire Wangfeng Valley. Their expressions were solemn and they exuded a strong aura. The leader among them was a middle-aged man wearing black clothes with sharp and angular faces.

, his eyes are as deep as stars, and his eyes are piercing. In his right hand, he holds a long metal stick. The long stick is engraved with dense runes, and it looks quite simple and heavy.

"This place has been surrounded by us. Those who know better, get out!" the middle-aged man said in a deep voice.

"Who are you? If you dare to trespass into Wangfeng Valley, do you know that this is the territory of Xuanyang Sect?"

Among the crowd, a girl in green clothes walked out. Her face was extremely charming, but her eyes were extremely cold, and there was a strong pressure surrounding her.

This woman is none other than Yue Ningxue, the head of the Xuanyang Sect's Law Enforcement Hall, and behind her are Shen Yulan, Mulan, Li Feiyan, Chen Feiyang, Huang Jin, Han Ming, and Dong Pingping, Xuanyang Sect disciples in their Qi refining period.

"I, Shen Tianyu, am a casual cultivator who wants to find a job in your sect." The middle-aged man said straightforwardly.

"Fellow Daoist Shen, since you are here to seek errands, why do you need to go into such a big fight?" Yue Ningxue said with a smile.

"A big fight? Do we have it?" Shen Tianyu turned around and asked.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"No."

"We have always treated others with dignity, so why would we go to war?"

A group of foundation-building monks behind Shen Tianyu laughed and said, some of them even laughed wildly, laughing very arrogantly, completely ignoring Yue Ningxue and others.

Yue Ningxue took a deep breath to suppress the anger in her heart. According to Brother Hou's instructions, the Law Enforcement Hall only acts in accordance with the sect rules. Strictly enforcing the sect rules will naturally convince the public.

"Fellow Daoist Shen, since you are here to seek errands, I will teach you the sect rules first, lest you violate the sect rules and be questioned by me and feel dissatisfied!" Yue Ningxue said coldly.

"Haha. Okay! Let's talk about it." Shen Tianyu said with a trace of mockery on his lips.

"This sect recruits disciples and guest elders all the year round. If you want to be a disciple, you must practice our skills; if you want to be a guest elder, you don't need to practice our skills, but you need to be proficient in one of the hundreds of arts of cultivating immortals." Yue Ningxue said loudly. .

"What if I want to be the leader?" Shen Tianyu interrupted.

"According to the rules of this sect, the candidate for the head of our sect must be nominated by the great elder, and can only be appointed after being voted and approved by the elder council." Yue Ningxue explained patiently.

"Hehe... What if I want to be the Great Elder?" Shen Tianyu continued to ask.

"According to the rules of this sect, you only need to meet two conditions to become the great elder of our sect."

"What two conditions?" Shen Tianyu asked.

"Article 1: Rank on the Xuanyang Sect's wall for at least one year; Article 2: Defeat the original elder of the sect in a battle of skills to replace him."
