As soon as they settled in Shanglin Heavenly Palace, people from other sects also arrived one after another.
Unexpectedly, Qing Yilang, the head of the Xie family, one of the four major families in Jiangnan, actually arrived with Wang Buchen, the current acting head of the old enemy Wang family. The two families finally reconciled, not only because of the self-sacrificing battle of the Gun Saint Wang Yi on the shores of the South China Sea, but also because there was a new child between the two families.
The child is the son of the eldest son of the Wang family and the eldest daughter of the Xie family. This time, Xie Yingying came with Wang Buchen holding the child who was not yet one year old. The first thing the green-clothed man said when he saw Xie Yuling was: "Look, who did I bring to you!"
"Sister!" Xie Yuling was excited. He had thought that when he finished his training, he would break into the Wang family with a sword and rescue his sister. But now, when he saw his sister appear in front of him, she was not as miserable as he had imagined. Instead, she looked at him and smiled gently, just like before.
"My younger brother has made a name for himself now. He did not return to the Xie family, but instead founded his own sect." Xie Yingying said with a smile, "After hearing the good news, my sister followed Xiaoxing to come and see the excitement."
"Sister, I am also the head of the Xie family. It's so embarrassing to call you Xiaoxing." The man in green said he was embarrassed, but his expression was somewhat happy. After all, this was the first time the three siblings had reunited since Xie Yingying was forced to marry.
"Then I won't disturb your reunion. I'll go talk to Master Feng." Wang Buchen was very tactful and walked aside, but he and Feng Zuojun didn't have much to talk about. He simply said hello and started to wander around Huanglong Mountain. Then he met Dongfang Qi, the young master of the Dongfang family. Dongfang Yun is one generation older than Feng Zuojun and the others, and the relationship between the Dongfang family and the four masters of the Xiaoyao Yufeng Sect is relatively distant, so it is reasonable to send his son to congratulate.
"Brother Dongfang is here too. The only missing family is the Lu family. Our four major families are all here." Wang Buchen said with a smile.
Dongfang Qi raised his eyebrows slightly: "The Lu family is now in ruins, and the disciples have fled to who knows where. The four major families have become the three major families. Why do you still bring this up, brother?"
"You two, you two." Suddenly a voice in the corner called them in a low voice.
Dongfang Qi turned around and saw a young man dressed as a dandy disciple waving at them. He was stunned and glanced at Wang Buchen: "Brother Wang, do you know this man?"
Wang Buchen smiled and shook his head: "Brother Wang doesn't know him, but Brother Wang dares to guess that this person should be Su Zhe, the young master of the Weilongshan Su family."
"That's right, that's right. Young Master Wang has good eyesight!" Su Zhe nodded repeatedly.
"Su Zhe?" Dongfang Qi and Wang Buchen walked over together. "Master Su, do you want to talk to us about something?"
"Are you practicing spear?" Su Zhe glanced at the red tasseled spear behind Dongfang Qi.
Dongfang nodded: "Of course, my Dongfang family's spearmanship is the best in the world, who doesn't know that?"
"Have you ever heard of the Phoenix-wing Gold-plated Drill?" Su Zhe asked.
Dongfang Qi's eyes lit up. "Of course I've heard of it. The weapon is similar to a spear, but heavier and more ferocious. There are two wings at the tip of the spear, like phoenix wings, curved upward into a crescent shape. I've seen the pattern in ancient books, but unfortunately this weapon has been lost long ago, so I've only heard of it."
"There is a sword hidden in my Su family's armory! It is indeed made of gold as the legend says, and it is extremely dazzling under the sunlight! I can give it to Brother Dongfang!" Su Zhe said generously.
Dongfang was delighted at first, but then he took a step back cautiously: "What do you want, Master Su?"
Su Zhe did not answer, and looked at Wang Buchen again: "I heard that Master Wang likes reading very much. Did you wish to pass the imperial examination?"
Wang Buchen smiled and said, "It is still the same now."
Su Zhe smiled and said, "There are twelve volumes of Pingyue Dian in my Su family's library. You can copy a copy and send it to the young master's mansion next month."
"Pingyue Ceremony! Are you serious?" Even someone as calm as Wang Buchen couldn't help but exclaim at this moment.
"It's just a few books. Is it worth it for you to do this?" Dongfang Qi was just a military man, so he naturally didn't understand the reason.
Su Zhe explained: "The Pingyue Canon is a set of strange books compiled by Su Pingyue when he was in college a hundred years ago. Four volumes are still circulating in the world, and it is said that the whole book has six volumes. But how many volumes did you just say you have? Twelve volumes?"
"Read it with me again, what is the surname of the person who compiled the Pingyue Encyclopedia?" Su Zhe said with a smile.
"Su... No wonder, no wonder." Wang Buchen could no longer remain calm and asked, "Brother Su, what do you need our help with? We will do our best!"
Dongfang Qi scratched his head: "Why does it represent me?"
Su Zhe put away the folding fan in his hand and said: "Su Baiyi will go to Huanglong Mountain in a few days. I will need your help when the time comes. Let's subdue Su Baiyi together!"
"What?" Wang Buchen and Dongfang Qi looked at each other.
"Don't panic, don't panic. I have already discussed with Master Xie and Master Helian about Su Baiyi. With the combined strength of the two of them plus the head of the Criminal Law Court, it won't be a problem to trap him. But Feng Zuojun and Xie Yuling..." Su Zhe smiled.
After the two of them pondered for a long time, Dongfang Qi slowly said, "It's not that I want your weapon, but I'm itching to show my skills. I really want to compete with Xie Yuling."
Wang Buchen nodded: "That's true. I will also compete with Master Feng's Domineering Sword."
"Then I'll leave it to you two. We'll take action after the wedding!" Su Zhe waved the folding fan in his hand and left with a big laugh.
Three hundred miles away, Su Baiyi was happily waving the whip and driving the cart, completely unaware that he was falling into a big net.
Nangong Xier leaned against the carriage and peeled an orange: "You seem to be in a good mood these two days. What good things are waiting for us on Huanglong Mountain?"
Su Baiyi smiled awkwardly, fearing that Nangong Xier would discover something, and hurriedly said, "Of course, it's because I'm going to be the head of a sect, so I'm excited!"
Nangong Xier stuffed a slice of orange into Su Baiyi's mouth and said, "What nonsense you are talking about. Shanglin Tiangong, the world's largest sect, wants you to be the leader, and you are treating it like a formidable enemy. And Xiaoyao Yufeng Sect has only four people, all four of them are leaders, and you are ranked fourth. Is this something to be happy about?"
"No, no, since you are free and unrestrained, you won't care about the trivialities of the mortal world." Su Baiyi shook his head and said, "If I go to Shanglin Palace, I will become the leader of the martial arts world. I don't like to be the first, I just like to be the youngest!"
"Forget it. I haven't seen my senior brothers and junior brothers for a long time. I think my senior brothers and sisters will also come to the founding ceremony of Xiaoyao Yufeng Sect, right?" Nangong Xier asked.
Su Baiyi nodded: "Of course! Of course!"
Nangong Xier stretched and said, "After playing for so long, it's time to find a place to rest."
