Chapter 620: The Aristocratic Family Chooses to Compete
Shangxuanmen, the true sect!
Thinking of this, the young boy from the Hengnan Zhou family couldn't help but feel dazed. There seemed to be a clear sound of jade chimes ringing in his ears, and then countless clouds in front of his eyes slowly unfolded and turned into a picture scroll, with flying peaks and floating islands emerging. In the distance, monks in feathered robes and star crowns could be seen riding cranes in flying boats and crossing the sky. Auspicious light and auspicious air were endless.

The rolling and floating vast inspiration spreads to the end of the sky. The heavenly palace hanging high in the sky is like the stars, eternal, high above, and dazzling.

The light that has been accumulated for thousands of years lingers for a long time, and when you are immersed in it, you will feel as if you are in heaven.

As an outer disciple of the Zhenyi Sect and being well taken care of, the young boy naturally feels closer to the sect and hopes that the Hengnan Zhou family can get closer to the Zhenyi Sect.

After all, the inheritance of Zhenyi Sect is the most notable among all the upper Xuan sects, definitely not inferior to Doumu Palace and Taibai Sword Sect. Moreover, once the Hengnan Zhou family leans towards the Zhenyi Sect, the development of Hengnan Zhou family members like him in the Zhenyi Sect will be smoother.

Zhou Zhen turned his eyes and guessed what his youngest son was thinking. He looked out the window. Under the shade of flowers and green leaves, he could see red bricks and green tiles. A few white cranes were trimming their feathers. He sighed and said, "The Zhenyi Sect is indeed good, but it's too far away."

If the Hengnan Zhou family joined the Taibai Sword Sect and the Doumu Palace, they would have some concerns, fearing that they would be abandoned after their efforts. After all, they had no real high-level support in these two major sects.

Aristocratic families like the Hengnan Zhou family have deep roots and complex influence, but once they enter the Shangxuan Gate, without the support of real high-level officials, they will be like meat on the chopping board, at the mercy of others.

Entrusting everything to others and relying on the so-called promise of Shangxuanmen, the outcome can be imagined.

There is no doubt that Zhenyi Sect is also a Shangxuan Sect, and its virtue is not much better than Taibai Sword Sect and Doumu Palace. But unlike the two major Shangxuan Sects, in Zhenyi Sect, Hengnan Zhou can contact the real top leaders and seek real cooperation and protection.

"Zhou Qing."

Thinking of these two words, Zhou Zhen had a strange feeling. This was a big figure of the Zhenyi Sect who came out of the Hengnan Zhou family, and his relationship with the Hengnan Zhou family had never been severed.

Over the years, the other party has made great efforts to enable the children of the clan, including his own son, to enter the Zhenyi Sect.

"Wait a minute."

Zhou Zhen looked into the distance. Judging from the news coming from all sides, Zhenyi Sect or Zhou Qing was very interested in Hengnan Zhou Family. In that case, next, they had to show their strength and let everyone in Hengnan Zhou Family see it.

Also in the clan’s territory, there is a high peak with palaces and pavilions on top. A stunning rainbow is on one side, and a circle of dazzling treasure wheel appears at the very end. Tiny and fragmented lights flicker and stir constantly, back and forth.

At this moment, a rainbow shot out from afar, reached the steps of the palace, and then suddenly dissipated. A tall and beautiful female cultivator walked out from it. She was wearing a long skirt with a tail like flames, and a wisp of black hair hung in front of her body, tied with a jewel on it. The hair was fresh green and mysterious.

She came to the door, took a deep breath, suppressed her unhappiness, then tidied herself up, lifted her skirt, and the door was not closed, so the driver walked straight in.

Once inside, you'll see jade tiles as smooth as mirrors, with rays of light illuminating the high glazed platform in the center. On the platform sits a handsome young man, holding a Taoist scripture in one hand. The mysterious energy behind him slowly unfolds, and an ancient Taoist temple can be vaguely seen. The door is tightly closed, and no sound can be heard. Only the copper ring on the door has the patina of time, and spiritual words fall from it from time to time, telling of a deep mystery.

Seeing the girl in the red dress coming in, Zhou Zheng, a young man sitting on the high platform, smiled and said, "Hongzhuang, please sit down. You must be tired from running around recently."

After Zhou Hongzhuang sat down, she stroked her black hair with her hand. The pearl light shone on her pretty face, making it bright and dispelling the gloom. She calmed down and said, "People in the clan are more inclined to the two major upper Xuanmen."

"The power of Shangxuanmen is deeply rooted and has not changed for thousands of years. It is natural for people in the clan to be dazzled by the name of Shangxuanmen." Zhou Zheng, the most outstanding member of the Hengnan Zhou clan in Laojun Temple, has cultivated to the Nascent Soul stage. His every move is naturally calm and majestic. His voice is like the spring breeze passing through the pine forest, carrying clear green and soothing people's irritability. His eyes are clear, like colored glaze, untainted by the mundane world. He said: "We are all descendants of the Hengnan Zhou clan. If it is really good for you to join Shangxuanmen, we will not stop you, but promote it."

"But this time, the people in the clan were really blinded by the Shangxuan Sect. They only saw the supreme reputation of the Shangxuan Sect, but they didn't know that these two major Shangxuan Sects are really not suitable for our Hengnan Zhou family."

Zhou Hongzhuang nodded in agreement.

Over the past thousands of years, the Hengnan Zhou family has had talented people enter the Doumu Palace and the Taibai Sword Sect, but none of them have been able to grow up and have basically become mediocre.

In the final analysis, the characteristics of the two major upper Xuan sects, Doumu Palace and Taibai Sword Sect, are too obvious. One is dominated by female cultivators, and the other is dominated by sword cultivators. If they do not fit the characteristics of their sects, it will be extremely difficult to advance. "Moreover, the upper Xuan sect is the most dogmatic, and the family is solidified. It is very difficult for outsiders to integrate into it."

Zhou Zheng sighed, with a thoughtful look in his eyes. The competition among the major forces in Shangxuanmen was beyond the imagination of outsiders. If the Hengnan Zhou family really joined Doumu Palace or Taibai Sword Sect, they would probably be eaten up without leaving anything!

At this point, Zhou Zheng looked at Zhou Hongzhuang, his eyes deep and profound, and said: "On the contrary, our Laojun Temple and other Zhongxuan Sects are more likely to be open to all and teach everyone. Our experiences are the best proof of this."

"Yes."

Zhou Hongzhuang's beautiful eyes widened slightly. She indeed felt a spirit of tolerance and enterprising spirit in the sect. There was nothing rigid about it. As long as anyone was excellent, they would have a chance to come to the fore.

"So," Zhou Zheng's voice echoed in the hall, saying, "We push our clan to get close to the sect not just for our future development, but more for the long-term planning of our clan."

This is what he thought, so he was full of confidence, and his voice was sonorous and powerful, echoing all around, like the sound of metal and stone.

Although Laojun Temple is a middle-level sect and cannot compare with upper-level sects like Taibai Sword Sect and Doumu Palace, as disciples of Laojun Temple, they know the prosperity of the sect better than outsiders.

The current Laojun Temple has firmly taken the first place in Zhongxuanmen, and is not much worse than Shangxuanmen!

"I will continue to do my best."

Zhou Hongzhuang felt that all the tiredness in her body was swept away. She had feelings for the Hengnan Zhou family, so she wanted to fight for this step that would determine the fate of her family, and Laojun Temple was really the best choice.

Next, the two talked for a while and discussed the actions within the tribe.

When Zhou Hongzhuang was about to get up and leave, Zhou Zheng suddenly thought of something, and the mysterious energy behind him surged. He asked, "What do the clan members think of the Zhenyi Sect?"

"Zhenyi Sect." Zhou Hongzhuang sat down again, her eyes shining like a mirror, her forehead hanging, her eyes reflecting the light, becoming sharper, and she said, "It has a lot of momentum. After all, some of the clan members have joined Zhenyi Sect. After they came back, they have been cheering for Zhenyi Sect."

Speaking of this, the woman in the red dress couldn't help but frowned. The disciples who joined Zhenyi Sect were all talented and had real support behind them. When they gathered together, they could not be ignored.

In other words, the Zhenyi Sect is really far away from this area, and its influence here is not only not as great as that of the Doumu Palace and the Taibai Sword Sect, but even less than that of the Laojun Temple, the Fenghuangtai and other Zhongxuan Sects. Otherwise, it would be hard to say.

Zhou Zheng thought the same thing. He said, "Zhou Qing, you are really not simple."

On the one hand, Zhou Qing was willing to guide the young disciples of the Hengnan Zhou family into the Zhenyi Sect just after he had established himself in the Zhenyi Sect. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, this greatly increased the reputation of the Zhenyi Sect in the Hengnan Zhou family. On the other hand, Zhou Qing was able to allow the young disciples of the Hengnan Zhou family to successfully enter the Shangxuan Sect, which was an amazing skill.

The threshold for entering a major Xuan sect has always been extremely high, and they would rather have no one than admit unqualified people. Not to mention the Zhenyi Sect, even their Laojun Temple, if they want to admit people from the same clan, they have to go through many tests, and it is very difficult to enter.

"Zhou Qing."

Hearing these two familiar yet unfamiliar words, Zhou Hongzhuang's face showed a complicated expression.

Unlike Zhou Zheng, who entered Laojun Temple early and had never met or dealt with Zhou Qing, she was about the same age as Zhou Qing and they had attended the Jingchen Dharma Assembly together. It was through the Jingchen Dharma Assembly that she entered Laojun Temple and Zhou Qing entered the Zhenyi Sect.
