One person ascends to the Pure Huang Court

After saying that, Hu Yunxuan returned to his study and worked on the teaching plan that he had not yet finished.

There was no need for Hu's mother to prepare the meal. The steaming, red soup pot was placed in the center of the table, and the left and right sides were filled with beef and mutton rolls, vegetable platters, and tripe and pork throat, filling the entire table.

Hu Xiuwu couldn't hold back his saliva as he looked at the table full of dishes. He had been craving for a bite of this for a long time, and he couldn't stop complimenting Wang Kaixuan:

"Brother Fatty, you are really amazing. You have prepared so many things."

Wang Kaixuan opened two bottles of beer, handed one to Hu Bayi, and said smugly, "Hey, there is absolutely no problem with my work. I went directly to Fourth Brother's store to pick out all these things, so how could they not be complete? And these dipping sauces were all prepared by Fourth Brother himself."

Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan were drinking and bragging, while Hu Xiuwu was eating. If he didn't eat now, when would he?

Hu Xiuwu's face was greasy and he looked very satisfied after the meal. Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan were also drunk and had a great time.

After eating and drinking, Wang Kaixuan definitely couldn't drive back. Don't drink and drive, and don't drive after drinking.

So Wang Kaixuan was sent to Hu Bayi's room to rest by Hu Xiuwu, the mother of Hu.

As for Hu Bayi, he was of course pulled away by Shirley Yang. Why do you think Shirley Yang didn't drink with them?

Alas, another sleepless night.

Chapter 175 Stability

The next day, in the dim morning light, Wang Kaixuan was still sleeping soundly, and the old couple Hu Yunxuan had not yet gotten up.

Nadutong sent someone to pick up Hu Xiuwu. Hu Xiuwu left a note for his mother and left with the people from Nadutong without disturbing anyone.

Also setting off at the same time was Hu Bayi, who had left with Shirley Yang last night and had been busy all night. The employees of Nadutong took them both to Nadutong's headquarters in Sijiu City.

He planned to let the two of them make a detailed report on the evil Luo Haicheng incident from the wide bench.

There was a one-way mirror blocking the view, so Hu Xiuwu could not see who the other two directors were besides Zhao Fangxu.

But every director who can join the Naduotong board of directors is not appointed for nothing. Although they may be slightly inferior in strength, each of them is a careful, shrewd and sophisticated person, and none of them is easy to deal with.

It is true that some directors have linked the Eluohai City and the Zhuchen Pearl together, but since they are unaware of Feng Baobao's existence, they have not yet linked it with the secret of immortality and Jiashen.

With Zhao Fangxu's secret help, Hu Xiuwu naturally passed the test smoothly. At the same time, under the guidance of Zhao Fangxu, Nadutong's focus became the subsequent consequences caused by the death of the Snake God.

It was also the first time that Nadutong learned that the previous abnormal celestial phenomena on a global scale were actually related to the incident in the Eluohai City.

Before this, no one in the world knew the truth about the celestial phenomenon except Hu Xiuwu. After finding out the truth, the mainstream forces in the world all unanimously adopted a cold treatment and did not discuss it openly.

Even the news only commented that it was a once-in-a-lifetime wonder and ended the story hastily. The news coverage did not take up as much time as the theft at Sanxingdui.

Nadutong also communicated with superhuman organizations all over the world, tested each other, and asked indirectly to see if there was anyone or any force who knew the inside story of the matter.

At that time, Nadutong participated in the discussion objectively as a bystander, and enthusiastically discussed the truth behind the astronomical phenomena with his enemies and allies. Unexpectedly, he would end up eating the melon himself, and it turned out that this was caused by his own ancestors.

In the past, even if the matter had nothing to do with us, those people would always throw dirty water on us, not to mention that this matter really has something to do with us. I am afraid that our enemies will be even more excited this time, and maybe they will take this opportunity to impose sanctions on us again.

Or they may send people into our country under the pretext of finding out the truth in order to gather intelligence.

Under the guidance of Zhao Fangxu, Hu Xiuwu explained the truth about the death of the snake god in detail, and also expressed his speculation about the possible situations caused by the snake fall phenomenon.

After research and discussion by the Nadutong board of directors, it was decided to keep the matter of Eluohai City as top secret.

Hu Xiuwu also managed to get out from everywhere smoothly, but he was put under a confidentiality ban again. At the same time, Zhao Fangxu also reminded him to be honest in the short term and not to cause any big trouble again. If it happened again, he might not stand on Hu Xiuwu's side.

Hu Xiuwu understood what Zhao Fangxu meant. He would not always protect a troublemaker. If he kept causing trouble, it would be much easier to solve the source of the problem quickly than to cover it up again and again.

After the matter came to a conclusion, Hu Xiuwu and Hu Bayi were placed under a secrecy ban as usual, and then parted ways. As a company employee, Hu Bayi still had to go to work hard.

Although Hu Xiuwu was not as busy with work as Hu Bayi, he did not go home either.

Instead, he went to see the sword-forging master Zhang Duan first, wanting to see Yu Baiyuan. This time, thanks to the Red Lotus Ninjutsu given to him by Yu Baiyuan, Hardy's combat power increased exponentially, and he broke through the limitations of his own supernatural powers, which allowed them to avoid casualties when assassinating the Queen of Jingjue.

In addition, Hu Xiuwu felt that his Youyue swordsmanship had improved, and he also wanted to spar with Yu Baiyuan and get some guidance.

······

"Gone? Senior Brother Yu Baiyuan just left like that?"

Hu Xiuwu said in surprise.

"Yes, not long after you left, I was lucky enough to meet a disciple who had a good talent for Qi training and swordsmanship, and who could inherit the Youyue Swordsmanship, so I took him away."

"It's just that the boy seems to be getting old. He started too late and his Qi training foundation is not strong enough, so Yu Baiyuan brought him back to the Penglai Sword Sect's base, hoping to strengthen his training to make up for the lessons he missed before."

Zhang Duan was calmly hammering an iron bar. The aura on his body was connected to the rough piece in his hand. Every time he hammered the iron bar, he was tempering his body and making the innate Qi in his body more pure, making his body like fine steel. He was once again upgraded and took a step closer to the Vajra Indestructible realm.

Zhang Duan complained, "Before leaving, this old monkey was trying to find trouble for me. He asked me to help that little devil beat him up with his Miao Dao, which he used to perform the Youyue Sword Technique."

"He didn't even give me a deposit, but he asked me to make a good knife for him. He is really cunning."

Zhang Duan picked up the red-hot iron bar, thinking about the direction of the next hammering, and said to Hu Xiuwu:

"By the way, the old monkey also left a message saying that a monkey like him is not worthy of guiding you. As long as you follow Pei Min's path, your achievements will definitely be higher than his. You can go to Penglai Sword Pavilion to take a look when you have time."

Was the first half of the sentence really left by Senior Brother Yu Baiyuan?

Hu Xiuwu complained in his heart, but it didn't show on his face. He still maintained his respect for his elders:

"In that case, I won't bother you today."

Zhang Duan didn't even raise his head, but just waved the hammer in his hand at Hu Xiuwu a few times, indicating that he understood and told Hu Xiuwu to leave and not to disturb him.

"Zhang Duan seems to be in a bad mood. Is he upset by the fact that his senior brother accepted a disciple?"

Hu Xiuwu guessed in his heart as he left Zhang Duan's blacksmith shop.

It is not easy to accept a satisfactory disciple these days. The old Tianshi, who has the great reputation of the Tianshi Mansion in Longhu Mountain and the title of the top master, only accepted ten disciples in a hundred years, and one of them unfortunately died of illness.

Unlike the previous generation Heavenly Master Zhang Jingqing, there were more than a dozen high-level masters who could be given the surname Zhang, not including ordinary disciples like Xiang Tian Jinzhong.

Even Longhu Mountain has declined to this extent, let alone other schools. Most schools are actually in a state of lack of successors.

The Snake God has been continuously absorbing the spiritual energy of the world since ancient times, which caused the concentration of spiritual energy in the entire world to drop a lot. It was not until Hu Xiuwu cut off the snake escape from the ghost cave during the reign of Emperor Wu of Han that the problem of the loss of spiritual energy in the world was solved. However, the damage it caused was already unavoidable.

The most obvious consequence is that during the Shang and Zhou dynasties, human physical fitness was far inferior to that of ancient humans, and the innate Qi in their bodies was not as strong as that of people in the Yan and Huang periods.

The result is that it becomes more difficult to perceive the innate qi, and fewer people embark on the path of cultivation.

The difficulty of sensing a strand of hair and sensing a piece of silk cloth is different.

The control over population red lines by the Inhuman organizations of various countries has declined. The most recent incident of exclusion due to the excessive number of Inhumans was the Salem witch incident four hundred years ago.

However, the situation is different now. The whale-falling phenomenon caused by the death of the Snake God has enabled the world to obtain a huge amount of energy. It is certain that after the world absorbs this batch of energy, there will be a substantial improvement.

The number of aliens will also experience a spurt, and Nadutong is worried about this, hoping to come up with a solution that will satisfy both parties.

We can't just solve problems by killing in a barbaric way like in ancient times.

The future changes will not have much to do with Hu Xiuwu at present. He is not yet capable of participating in discussions on this level of strategic planning.

So his life became peaceful instead. While the vacation was still going on, he studied the Huangting Sutra and at the same time restored his original body shape bit by bit. His life was leisurely and fulfilling.

During this period, the only disturbance was the small matter of Hu Bayi and Shirley Yang's engagement.

Chapter 176 Dowry

If we count from the time they first met, Hu Bayi and Shirley Yang have known each other for a full year.

During this year, Hu Bayi and Shirley Yang experienced two life and death situations together. In the ancient city of Jingjue and the tomb of King Xian, Hu Bayi and Shirley Yang saved each other's life several times, and also witnessed each other's true face exposed in extreme situations.

Although the two of them did spend less time together than ordinary couples, their friendship was no less than that of couples who had been together for many years. Feelings that had withstood the test of wind and rain were also more solid than the romantic talk that lingered on the lips.

In addition, Hu Bayi and Xue Liyang are really old and can't stand any more delays, so during the time when Hu Bayi and Hu Xiuwu were away, Hu's mother had been working on Xue Liyang, hoping that the two could settle their relationship.

Shirley Yang's parents have passed away, and she has no other relatives or elders, so she has to make her own decisions about marriage.

When talking about the important matter of marriage, even someone as generous and free-spirited as Shirley Yang couldn't help but feel a little shy, but in the end she still agreed to Hu's mother.

As for Hu Bayi, when his wife and mother stand on the same front, do you think he still has a say?

In addition, as soon as Hu Bayi came back, Shirley Yang took him away and persuaded him that if a man's legs were not strong, he would not dare to raise any opinions.

Shirley Yang has been at the Hu family these days, discussing the engagement banquet with Hu's mother, so it was not a coincidence that Hu Xiuwu saw Shirley Yang as soon as he came back. It was inevitable.

Shirley Yang's side didn't have any relatives to invite, which saved them a lot of trouble. In addition, because of Hu Xiuwu's incident, the Hu family had a rift with their previous neighbors in the countryside of Huacheng. Plus, that place was not actually the Hu family's hometown, so they didn't plan to go back to the south to hold the wedding.

The mother-in-law, daughter-in-law and Hu Yunxuan discussed it and decided to hold the engagement banquet in this city.

Before Hu Bayi and Hu Xiuwu came down from the snowy plains, Shirley and Yang, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, had already booked a hotel, just waiting for Hu Bayi to come back.

Following Shirley Yang's advice, the engagement banquet was relatively simple, inviting only some of Hu Bayi and Hu Yunxuan's comrades-in-arms and colleagues, as well as Shirley Yang's friends.

Even so, the engagement party was still lively, with people drinking and chatting. During the banquet, Wang Kaixuan was the most excited, even more excited than Hu Bayi's parents. If you didn't know, you would think it was his son getting married.

Shirley Yang followed the local customs and toasted at every table with Hu Bayi, except the table with children where Hu Xiuwu was.

Although they are called children, there are actually no children who are too young at this table. They are all grown-up guys who cannot drink but are strong enough to take care of themselves. Parents of real children would not dare to let them sit at a table alone.

Otherwise, if there are really a lot of children sitting at a table, something unexpected will happen to one of them.

Wang You and Wang Ye were sitting together with Hu Xiuwu. Given the relationship between Wang Weiguo and Hu Yunxuan, how could he not come to Hu Bayi's engagement? Not only did he come himself, he also dragged the three brothers of the Wang family over. However, Wang You was much older than them and had already gone to college, so he followed his father Wang Weiguo to accompany the guests for drinking.

Wang didn't like this kind of occasion very much, but he didn't show it as obviously as Wang Yi, who also didn't want to stay here.

He had a happy look on his face and even used juice to congratulate Hu Bayi and Shirley Yang, but in fact, what attracted him most here was not the newlywed couple who were the protagonists, but Hu Xiuwu.

He and Hu Xiuwu had only not seen each other for eight or nine days, but Wang Ye was shocked to find that Hu Xiuwu's innate Qi had more than doubled!

When sitting next to Hu Xiuwu, even if Hu Xiuwu did not practice Qi deliberately, Wang Ye could clearly feel that the surrounding spiritual energy was gathering towards Hu Xiuwu.

Moreover, he absorbed spiritual energy so quickly that he was just like a human-shaped eye of a storm, constantly plundering the surrounding spiritual energy, making the area around Hu Xiuwu become an area with thin spiritual energy like the top of a mountain.

Any alien would feel uncomfortable next to him, and some aliens with weak foundations might even have the flow of Qi in their bodies affected.

Wang Ye secretly observed Hu Xiuwu for a long time, but still couldn't figure out what Hu Xiuwu was doing now. Unable to resist his inner curiosity, he quietly asked Hu Xiuwu:

"What on earth have you been doing these past few days? It's like you've become a different person."

After hearing this, Hu Xiuwu's originally smiling face suddenly turned cold as ice, and he said expressionlessly and coldly:

"I didn't expect you to figure it out. If that's the case, I won't let you stay."

Wang Ye was speechless: "If you don't want to say it, don't say it. Why are you pretending to be possessed by an evil spirit? Why don't you just say that someone replaced your face?"

"Hey, Xiaotian also recommended the movie "Face/Heart" to you."

Hu Xiuwu smiled again and used his fingertips to pinch a small gap: "With your humble cultivation, it is difficult for me to explain to you."

Wang Ye: What should I do if I want to beat him up?
