Tian Yuan Xian Ji

Chapter 589

The Xuande Hall was solemn and solemn. In the hall, many disciples stood at the bottom with their hands down. Above the main seat, Luo Qingshui sat on top of it, and Tang Ning sat upright on his left.

It was the end of the month, and it was the time for the election of the head of the Xuande Hall. All the stewards of the five departments under the Xuande Hall gathered here to elect a new hall master. In fact, this was just an inauguration ceremony, because apart from Tang Ning, There is simply no second choice for them to choose from.

Originally, Tong Quan'an should be in charge of presiding over the election of the new director of Xuande Hall, but his physical condition is really poor. I heard that his spiritual power could not be suppressed a few days ago, causing the spiritual power to leak out. Under such circumstances, it is naturally not suitable to preside over the election. Something happened, so Luo Qingshui was replaced.

Disciples from various departments outside the hall entered one after another, bowed to Luo Qingshui and then retreated into the crowd.

When all the disciples arrived, Luo Qingshui said, "Junior Brother Tong was unable to preside over the selection of the head of the Xuande Hall due to his own reasons. The only person participating in the selection is Tang Ning, who is in charge of the Yuanyi Hall. Now I It is announced that the selection of the director of the Xuande Palace will now begin."

As soon as he finished speaking, the two disciples beside him took a stack of papers and distributed them to the people below one by one. They wrote their candidates and put them in the wooden box. After the reading, Luo Qingshui officially announced that Tang Ning was elected as the head of Xuande Hall.

After the election was over, all the disciples retreated in single file, only Luo Qingshui and Tangning were left in the hall.

Luo Qingshui said: "Xuande Hall is in charge of the punishment of disciples, but in this case, there are not many disciples, and there are even fewer outstanding disciples, so in terms of punishment, leniency has always been the main priority. If we completely follow the sect's regulations In other words, few people are clean, you should know this, I won't say more, in short, everything must be controlled to a certain degree."

"I understand." Tangning nodded.

"I heard that you have allocated a lot of spiritual stones to an intelligence station under you over the years, so why?" Luo Qingshui asked.

"Blood Bone Sect has a Jindan Elder, named Tiehuagu. This person has a deep hatred with me. My hometown was originally in a small village called Tangliu Village in South China. Two hundred years ago, my whole family was slaughtered overnight."

"I was young at the time, fortunately I escaped a catastrophe, and after being displaced, I was lucky enough to join the sect."

"The hatred between my parents is irreconcilable. I didn't know who the murderer was before. It wasn't until decades ago that I found out that it was him by chance. However, given his profound strength, no corresponding measures have been taken."

"It wasn't until I was lucky enough to step into the Golden Core that I started to plan this matter. Since the Blood Bone Sect is in the territory of Wu State, we didn't penetrate enough into them."

"So I summoned the head of the Nighthawk Intelligence Station under the Intelligence Division and asked him to start infiltrating the Blood Bone Gate and plant a flag to lurk beside Tie Huagu. Therefore, I specially ordered the Yuanyi Palace Palm Printing Department to allocate some Lingshi subsidy to their intelligence station." Tangning didn't hide anything, she told the truth.

Luo Qingshui nodded: "So that's how it is. Since that iron painted bone is the elder of Jindan of the Blood Bone Sect, why did he travel thousands of miles to South China to slaughter a small village?"

"He was only a foundation-building monk at the time. As for why the village was slaughtered, I have always been puzzled."

Luo Qingshui said: "How is things going now?"

"A secret agent has been sent to lurk beside his apprentice, and relevant information will be sent every month."

Luo Qingshui said: "When you have time, you can visit Junior Brother Tong and explain the affairs."

"clear."

Luo Qingshui stopped talking, got up and left.

Tang Ning also left the hall one after another, the light rose, and after a short walk, she came to Tong Quanan's cave. With a wave of her hand, the talisman disappeared into the room.

Soon, the dense fog billowed, and a ray of light flashed out, revealing the figure of a man with a fair complexion and slightly white temples.

He bowed and saluted: "Disciple pays respects to Master Uncle, Master invites Master Uncle to enter."

Tang Ning followed him into the inner room, and came to Tong Quan'an's main room. Ji Shou saluted and sat opposite him. Xu Zilong quietly withdrew, and the stone door closed with a bang.

Tong Quan'an looked older than last month, his face was full of wrinkles, his whole body was lifeless, and he was about to die.

The spiritual power in his body was extremely unstable, and the spiritual energy in his body was filled with worms within a radius of several feet, and it seemed that it would explode uncontrollably at any time.

When the cultivation level has reached the Golden Core realm, the spiritual power in the body is very huge. If it is not controlled, it will pour out like a tidal wave. Its power is enough to destroy mountains and crack rocks. If you can't bear it, you will either die or be injured.

Therefore, the entire mountain where his cave is located has been under martial law, and qi refining disciples are not allowed to enter, in order to prevent accidental injury from the spiritual power poured out by him. Usually only his disciple Xu Zilong is here to take care of him.

With Tangning's cultivation today, of course, there is no need to worry about her spiritual power leaking out. The two chatted in the room for three or four hours before he got up to leave.

Xu Zilong had been waiting outside the house. Seeing Tang Ning come out, he sent him to the outside of the cave, and said, "I want to hold a banquet in the mansion, so I invite some brothers from the Xuande Hall to celebrate my uncle's success in being selected as the master of this hall." I don't know if Master Uncle can show you the honor?"

Tangning said, "Since that's the case, it's better to hit the sun than to choose a day. Today is the day!"

"Okay, disciple, go back and prepare immediately, and congratulate Master Uncle on his great drive." Xu Zilong said.

Tang Ning nodded her head, her light rising.

The so-called feast and congratulations are actually just a name. Xu Zilong, as Tong Quan'an's disciple, naturally represents Tong Quan'an, and the banquet he is hosting must also be Tong Quan'an's confidant disciple.

The actual meaning of this banquet is actually equivalent to worshiping the top of the mountain, that is, Tong Quan'an's old department will join Tang Ning in the future, and follow his lead.

There is no need to say this kind of thing, both parties know it well, Luo Qingshui asked him to visit Tong Quan'an for this reason.

Tong Quan'an's life expectancy is approaching, and his death is imminent, so his former confidant disciples must find another backer!Tang Ning was naturally the best candidate, because they all belonged to Luo Qingshui's clan, and now he was the head of the Xuande Hall. As their immediate boss, who else could they rely on if they didn't rely on him.

Although Tang Ning was promoted to be the head of the Xuande Hall, his foundation in the Xuande Hall was weak and he didn't have a single confidant. The people below would always need someone to do things for him, no matter on the surface or secretly.

If everyone is alienated from him, obediently obeys his orders, and asks him to do everything by himself, it means that he will not be the master of the Xuande Palace for long.

So he had to accept Tong Quan'an's old department as his foundation in Xuande Hall, otherwise he might not be able to secure this position.

The two parties are mutually beneficial, and in addition, the two parties have contacted and cooperated before. At that time, Tang Ning decided to participate in the election of the head of the Xuande Hall. He met Tong Quan'an and got his support. At that time, Xu Zilong summoned his confidants in his mansion. Host a banquet.

It was precisely because of the support of Tong Quan'an and Luo Qingshui that no one else participated in the election. They all knew that Tang Ning had already won, so there was no need to bring shame on themselves.

Not to mention other people, Jiang Yuhuan, who is also a high-level manager of the sect, did not participate in the election. You must know that the income of the master of the third palace is more than twice that of the manager. There is also a lack of spirit stone pills.

Without financial resources, aptitude and talent are just empty shells, and he did not participate in this election, let alone others.

There are a total of more than [-] stewards in the Xuande Palace. Luo Qingshui and Tong Quanan's confidantes, the old department and subordinates, have reached [-]%. These people all obey their orders. take over.

Tangning returned to the cave and pushed open the stone door. The woman in front of the vine tree opened her eyes and said dissatisfiedly, "Xiao Ningzi, why did you go? You haven't come back for so long."

"Didn't I give you something to eat?"

"I asked why you went, did you eat something good outside?"

Tangning sat cross-legged on the futon, "I'm out on business, Zhanxian, now..."

"It's the nine heavens and ten lands, the heavens and the eight deserts, the five continents and the four seas, and I am the only one who honors Master Zhanxian." The woman interrupted.

Following her heart, Tangning called out her full name and asked, "Now that you can leave this vine tree and live outside for a long time, can you return this vine tree to me?"

"No, this is my home." The woman said immediately.

"I'll exchange a hundred pills with you."

"No."

Tang Ning had nothing to do with it. He wanted to study this vine tree carefully. There must be something mysterious about it being able to make this treasure that the sword soul regards grow to such an extent in just a few decades.

He didn't pay much attention to it before. It wasn't until the woman appeared that he guessed that the Xuanteng might be a treasure. It's a pity that since the woman appeared, she has been occupying Xuanteng and he is not allowed to take it back.

"Do you know this vine tree? Do you know its origin?" Tangning asked.

"I don't know him, but I live comfortably in it, so don't try to make a fuss about it," the woman warned.

Tangning stopped asking.

At night, in Xu Zilong's cave mansion, which was resplendent and luxuriously decorated, several men exchanged greetings with smiles on their faces. Around [-]:[-], the stone door was pushed open with a bang, and a man walked in quickly, walking to Xu Zilong's side and whispering: "Uncle, Palace Master Tang has arrived."

Xu Zilong immediately stood up and said, "Brothers, I'll go and return as soon as I go."

After finishing speaking, he left the seat and went out of the room. Everyone looked at each other and sat upright. The room fell into silence for a while, and a needle could be heard.

Not long after, there was only a "click" sound, the stone door turned open, and a handsome man with a smile on his face came in from the outside without haste, Xu Zilong followed behind him step by step.

Everyone stood up in a clatter, bowed and saluted: "Disciple pays homage to Master Uncle."
