......

"If not, why didn't Elder Yu come forward until now? Xu Zhenping asked really.

"Hmph~" Yu You snorted coldly and replied: "I have been in the room to comprehend the Dan Dao, the six senses are locked, I don't know what happened, if I hadn't woken up and saw so many people surrounded by Wancao Hall, how would I have come to Elder Wang's room." ”

Looking at Yu You's cold and determined expression, Ou Chuyang looked at his face and did not find anything wrong, and his true soul power did not find the breath of the soul of the dead in Yu You's body.

Ou Chuyang said: "It wasn't Elder Yu who did it. ”

The cold opening attracted everyone's attention again, and this remark refuted Xu Zhenping's analysis, which made Xu Zhenping even more angry.

"You know again?"

"Of course. Glancing at Xu Zhenping, Ou Chuyang looked at Xu Zhenheng and explained: "Anyone who absorbs the power of the soul has the breath of the soul of the dead on his body, which cannot be concealed by any holy weapon, and the power of the soul must be refined immediately, otherwise, with Wang Changdi's cultivation, the soul power will definitely rise to the sky, fighting the last trace of the soul, and say the person who harmed him." Elder Yu You did not have the soul qi of the deceased in his body, which showed that he did not absorb Elder Wang's soul, so naturally it was not his hand. According to what Qingyi saw, the person who harmed Elder Wang must have left Wancao Hall at the first time he killed him and found a place to refine Elder Wang's soul. ”

Everyone listened word by word, repeatedly recalling Ou Chuyang's words, and through the perception of their own soul power, there was indeed no breath of the dead soul that Ou Chuyang said in his mouth.

The reasoned and well-founded statement convinced everyone, Xu Zhenping had no reason to refute, he could only stare at Ou Chuyang with indignation, Xu Zhenheng thought 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, what to do, elders, you stay." ”

With an order, everyone retreated, leaving only Ou Chuyang, Xu Zhenheng and the elders of the Xu family in the house.

"Xu Qian, Xu Kong. After the group left, Xu Zhenheng summoned the two of them.

"Head of the house~"

"Tomorrow is the contract battle, this matter will be put down first, but the deity is afraid that the person who assassinated Elder Wang Chao has other plans, we can't pass on my order, except for the people who participated in the contract battle, the rest of the people will step up the protection of Xuanguang Peak day and night, especially the entrance of the monument, and send more manpower to prevent it. ”

"Yes, Master. ”

"And. Xu Zhenheng turned his gaze to Xu Yanguang and said: "Guang'er, you now bring all the candidates who participated in the contract battle into the Golden Light Palace, and all the elders will also go, without my order, from now on, you are not allowed to go out of the main hall, and the cultivation will be carried out in the main hall, and tomorrow morning, we will go to the ancient monuments together." ”

"Yes, father. Xu Yanguang received the order.

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

"The head of the house. Ou Chuyang knew that Xu Zhenheng wanted to let himself enter the Golden Light Palace, but he didn't want to stay with Xu Zhenping for a day, and he also needed to prepare well for tomorrow's trip to the ancient monuments, so he interrupted: "Family master, Qingyi doesn't need to." ”

"Yes. Fortunately, with Mr. Qingyi's strength, no matter how strong the person is, he will not dare to make a rash move. Xu Zhenheng nodded and said, "That's it, everyone is scattered." ”

With Xu Zhenheng's order, everyone dispersed unhappily, and Ou Chuyang returned to Xuantian Pavilion while thinking.

Along the way, Ou Chuyang was full of sadness, in his mind, Wang Chao's death is not a good thing, the contract battle is imminent, although the Martial God Tower has always been in a closed state, but who knows if Shu Ying and Gan Tian Gandhi will send people to infiltrate the two major families, what he is most afraid of is that at this juncture, Shu Ying's strength will recover, raise troops to attack, and when he has not yet obtained the strength to fight with him, it will be troublesome.

After thinking about it, Ou Chuyang overturned his idea again, if Shu Ying really recovered, how could he still use such trouble, with the powerful strength of the God Yuan Power in his body, he still needed to be afraid of the God Family? Therefore, Ou Chuyang concluded that Shu Ying had not come out yet.

But who is going to kill Wang Hao?

Thinking about it, Ou Chuyang couldn't think of a reason, and in desperation, he could only return to Xuantian Pavilion with a trace of doubt.

After going back, Ou Chuyang found that Duan Yuanzhong and Bu Gong were not there, and before that, the two did not appear in Wancaotang.

Just thinking about it, Duan Yuanzhong appeared, and 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 saluted respectfully, this kind of style is for outsiders to see.

"No, there's no one else here. Ou Chuyang waved his hand and asked, "Where did Bu Gong go?"

Duan Yuanzhong replied: "In the Zijin Flower Garden." ”

Hearing this, Ou Chuyang was puzzled: "Where are you going to do it at this time?"

Duan Yuanzhong shook his head and said, "I don't know, but yesterday I heard that he had a glimpse of the bottle strength of the sixth-level Dan Master, and maybe he wanted to break through." ”

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

"yes. was able to break through to the seventh-level Dan Master, and Bu Gong could be regarded as having come out of it. Duan Yuanzhong sighed.

"I see. Ou Chuyang said, and returned to his room, but halfway through, thinking of the word "plastic yuan" that appeared on his desk in Luo Tiange before, Ou Chuyang stopped abruptly and asked in a low voice: "Brother Jin, when you were in Luo Tiange, have you been to my room to look for me?"

"Nope. Duan Yuanzhong couldn't understand why Ou Chuyang asked him this, and asked with a puzzled face, "Why do you ask that?"

"Oh, nothing, just asking. ”

"By the way, I heard from Bu Gong that Elder Yu You once came to look for you. After thinking about it, Duan Yuanzhong suddenly said one more word.

"Oh? In response, Ou Chuyang turned around and returned to his room.

The next morning, the sun was shining.

Although Wang Chao's death cast a strange cloud of doubt on the entire Xuanguang Pavilion Xu family, the advent of the contract battle made all the Xu family members forget this "little thing" for the time being.

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

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

Among the seven middle-level martial gods in the center, there are Xu Jie'er and Xu Yanguang.

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

In the battle of the contract, except for the almost strict requirements for the number of people in the first layer of the ancient battlefield, the other two layers did not have too strict statements. It's just that for the sake of security, the strong people brought in by the two major families every time are almost all of the family. For the sake of the contract, as a child of the family of gods, he can fight with his life, which is not only a matter of glory, but also contains the dedication to the authentic Jin Ling.

After waiting quietly for a while, Xu Zhenheng and Ou Chuyang came one after another, and when Xu Zhenheng appeared in the square in front of the palace, the atmosphere in the entire square changed suddenly, and the battle intent in the eyes of all the strong people instantly soared to the extreme.

A hundred-year covenant, just this one battle, whether there will be a supreme powerhouse in the family who can soar to heaven and martial arts depends on the present dynasty.

Without too many words, Xu Zhenheng just glanced at it with that majestic gaze, resolutely waved his big hand, and said loudly: "Follow me into the monument." ”

"Yes~"

After dozens of strong people shouted in unison, dozens of figures swept straight towards the entrance of the forbidden land under the eyes of more than 1,000 people in the Xu family.

A strong battle intent filled the entire Xuanguang Peak for a long time, and dozens of dazzling rays of light that appeared in the sky were the astonishing cultivation emitted by the bodies of these dozens of powerhouses.

In the blink of an eye, the Hurricane Canyon of the Falling Moon Ancient Road came into view.

With no one to stop them, everyone quickly came to the entrance of the "human" herringbone of the canyon.

On the right side, the same number of powerhouses also rushed over, and it was the Tianshui Peak Duan family led by Duan Yuankuo.

When the two powerhouses met, the fighting intent germinated, they looked at each other, and an astonishing killing intent rose to the sky.

Xu Zhenheng and Duan Yuankuo looked at each other from a distance, smiled at each other, stepped forward, and said hello.

"Brother Duan~"

"Brother Xu~"

The two of them waved their hands at the same time, and then someone stood up from the line, followed by a high-pitched and loud dragon groan.

The disciples of the family listened to the order and quickly exited the canyon. ”

After this dragon roar containing majestic internal strength sounded, countless strong men who lived in the canyon and practiced day and night sprung up one after another, and when they were in the sky, they looked at the two strong men who came and went here without squinting.

"Please~"

After making a "please" gesture to each other, Xu Zhenheng and Duan Yuankuo each took their own clan disciples and rushed to the entrance of the monument at full speed.

Being the first to enter the Hurricane Canyon, it was inevitable that they would be consumed in the canyon, Xu Zhenheng and Duan Yuankuo took out a delicate-looking stone from their arms at the same time, but it contained a strange atmosphere, the shape of the stone was six-sided, and simple runes were engraved on it. It is the key that is used to open the gates of the monuments.

At the same time, the two took out the key, and the two glanced at each other, and then threw the key out with a sharp hand.

The two keys let out a crisp sharp sound, and then under Ou Chuyang's attention, they seemed to be like two opposing magnets of yin and yang, quickly integrated together.

The keys intersected, and a purple gold light rose into the sky, and the next moment, a rich purple thunder qi emanated from the combined keys, and the hurricane in the canyon was instantly eliminated.

The hurricane, which could have distinguished the breath and strength of the comer, disappeared in the blink of an eye, and the narrow hurricane canyon was dead and silent, as quiet as a long ancient road, without the slightest sound of wind.

Ou Chuyang saw it in his eyes, and couldn't help but praise it 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 he was thinking, the two sides had already pulled out and quickly marched towards the entrance. And before that, the key was not driven by the two masters at all, as if it was actually spiritual, and took the lead in opening the way straight to the end of the canyon.

The dense black mist is quietly imprinted in the space in the form of a whirlpool, without any support, and the black halo at the entrance of the monument is like a mirror that does not reflect the image, blocking the canyon and the interior of the monument, becoming a unique barrier gate.

Quietly suspended in the air, Xu Zhenheng and Duan Yuankuo looked at the black halo, their eyes full of battle intent. The key slowly floated above the halo until it stopped at the center of the halo.

The faint purple thunder qi exuded an incomprehensible energy, slowly spreading, and as a result, the black halo gradually became thin, and then began to become transparent. And with the continuous change of the black enchantment gate, the energy in the key became more and more scarce, and after a long time, the key finally exerted the last trace of residual heat, became dim, and then after a crisp sound, it separated again, and was taken into the hands of the two masters.

Xu Zhenheng looked at the secret stone in his hand that had become ordinary and could no longer be ordinary, and said to Duan Yuankuo: "Brother Duan, the key energy has been absorbed, and the ancient battlefield ban has been opened. Let them in. ”

Duan Yuankuo nodded, turned his gaze to Ou Chuyang, and teased, "What's the matter?"

Ou Chuyang didn't answer, just smiled undeniably.

Xu Zhenheng said: "Qingyi has already made an in-law with Jie'er girl, and it is also half of the Xu family, in addition, it is reasonable for each family to bring a Dan Master in the contract battle, didn't Brother Duan also bring Elder Qingyun?"

Xu Zhenheng was talking about an old man standing behind Duan Yuankuo, this person was the elder of the Duan family's medicine hall, and like Yu You, Wang Chao and others of the Xu family, they all belonged to the seventh-level Dan master under the rule of the family.

Hearing Duan Yuankuo call out the name Qingyi, although Qingyun had not seen it, but at that time in the Xu family's shocking Dan Tribulation, he had seen it from afar, and after Duan Yuankuo returned to Tianshui Peak, he even told Ou Chuyang about his achievement as an eighth-level Dan Master. And Qingyun, who was originally empty-eyed, saw the first eighth-level Dan Master in the mainland, but he was sincerely frightened, and hurriedly came to Ou Chuyang.

Bowing down and giving a big salute, Qingyun, whose hair was already gray, said respectfully: "No, Qingyun has seen Lord Qingyi. ”

There is a rule in the Dan cultivation lineage, when the two Dan masters meet, there is no need to study the strength of martial arts, and they all determine the identity and status of Dan realm cultivation. Although Qingyun was a seventh-level Dan Master, he was the top in the mainland, and when he saw Ou Chuyang, he still had to bow down as a weak scholar.

Now Ou Chuyang, who is an eighth-level Dan Master, naturally knows this unwritten rule, and when he saw Qingyun being so humble, he stretched out his hand and said, "No need, get up." ”

"Thank you, Lord Qingyi. Qingyun said and stepped aside.

Duan Yuankuo said with a smile: "In this case, it's okay, the contract battle is rare to see in a hundred years, and Mr. Qingyi should be watching the battle." Master Xu, let's go in. ”

"Yes. Xu Zhenheng nodded, turned around and reminded Ou Chuyang: "Qingyi, the first layer of the ancient battlefield only allows beginner-level martial gods to make a move, and when you get inside, no matter what happens, don't make a move, otherwise, the consequences will be very serious." ”

"Good. Ou Chuyang nodded.

"Let's go. ”

With the orders of the two family heads Xu Zhenheng and Duan Yuankuo, a team of nearly 100 martial god powerhouses swept towards the black halo at the same time.

The cold light flashed, and a piercing chill hit the body. The crowd entered the monument.
