Night falls.

The streets of the Imperial Capital are becoming more and more lively and brightly lit. The geniuses of Yaoguang and Qiongtian have left the embassy one after another, wandering around the Imperial Capital, shopping, eating and drinking...

At this time, the Yuchi family in Shouyun was experiencing an undercurrent.

Hidden in a secret room deep in Yuchi's house, there was a woman with black lines all over her body. She was lying on the stone bed, her whole body twitching. She screamed in extreme pain, and her voice was hoarse like sandpaper.

A screeching sound from the ground.

"Ah...ah..."

"Ancestor...save...save Wan'er...it hurts..."

She struggled to get up from the stone bed, but was suppressed by an invisible force. Time and time again, she screamed in pain.

The screams were like ghosts seeking life in hell.

After an unknown amount of time, the door to the secret room opened automatically.

Several hazy shadows appeared in the secret room, and they walked towards Yuchi Wan on the stone bed, looking down at her indifferently as she struggled.

Yuchi Wan's vision was blurred, but she could vaguely see several shadows, which made her feel inexplicably cold and biting. However, she thought it was the Supreme Patriarch who loved her, and immediately shouted pitifully:

"Ancestor...Ancestor! Save me!"

No matter how much she asked for help and shouted hysterically, she still couldn't get a response.

The phantoms looked at each other, and then one of the phantoms leaned down slightly, then raised a hazy hand like mist and placed it on Yuchi Wan's forehead.

In an instant, Yuchiwan's screams stopped abruptly.

Her whole body was shaken, and her eyes were wide open, without any luster at all.

At this time, an extremely powerful force surged out of the hand of the shadow and was forcefully injected into her forehead, thus instilling it into her body.

The black lines on Yuchiwan's skin gradually faded away and returned to its previous appearance. Then her eyelids drooped and closed tightly.

A black and purple skull pattern mark the size of a thumb appeared on Yuchi Wan's forehead, emitting wisps of black light.

Soon, the mark disappeared.

There was an eerie silence and gloominess in the whole secret room.

Those phantoms seemed to have accomplished something, and then left the secret room.

With a 'bang' sound, the door to the secret room was closed.

Outside the secret room, there was a young man hiding behind the rockery. He held his breath, his face was pale, and he looked panicked and frightened.

His heartbeat was beating like a drum, and his five senses became extremely clear.

After the phantoms were completely out of sight, he instantly leaned against the rockery with weak legs, and his body slid down little by little. His whole body seemed to have been fished out of the water, and he was sweating constantly.

Wan'er...what happened to her?!

Yuchi Bai forcibly suppressed his fear and looked in the direction of the secret room again.

This sight almost made him lose his mind.

The person who suddenly appeared in front of him was none other than Grand Ancestor Yuchi!

"Bai'er, what are you looking at?"

When Yuchi heard his sinister and smiling voice, he felt goosebumps all over his body. He stumbled and replied: "Tai... Taishang Ancestor... I... I didn't see anything."

Grand Ancestor Yuchi said: "It's late at night, it's time to go back and practice."

"Yes, I'll go back right now!"

Yuchi Bai quickly agreed and hurriedly fled from the rockery before saluting. As he ran, his legs became weak several times and he almost fell to the ground.

Grand Ancestor Yuchi looked at his departing back with slightly narrowed eyes, a few gleams of light flashed in his eyes, seeming indifferent and dangerous.

…

Yu Chibai returned to the attic, his face was pale, his mood could not calm down, and his heart seemed to jump to his throat the next moment.

He murmured silently.

"Wan'er..."

He could never understand that the Supreme Ancestor, who had always doted on Wan'er, actually locked Wan'er in a secret room in a forbidden area. Wan'er also had strange black streaks all over her body, and her shrill voice seemed to still be lingering in his ears.

What is going on?

And what are those shadowy figures that are too blurry to be seen clearly?

Should he tell grandpa?

No, you can’t tell grandpa!

Even if you tell Grandpa, what will happen? Grandpa can't resist the Supreme Patriarch, not to mention that Grandpa has always followed the Supreme Patriarch. No matter how talented Wan'er is, Grandpa can't fight with the Supreme Patriarch just to protect her.

The ancestors broke up.

Even if it were him, it would be the same.

Yuchi Bai's heart was filled with chills. He suddenly thought of the affairs between the Taishang Ancestors and the Nine Sects of the Great Desolation, and his face changed in surprise.

What on earth is this going to do?!

…

Time flew by and two days passed.

In the evening, Lan Tianxiang Restaurant.

In the top and luxurious box on the seventh floor, there are about twenty young talents.

They come from the three continents, including Fan Yu'er from Yaoguang, Yu Wenzhou, Yin Jinse, Yin Nianhua, You Fuyue, and Murong Heng. There are Feng Yuanxiao, Feng Yuanming, and Gong Liyuan from Shouyun. There are eight people from Qiongtian's Fengyun team.

, Si Kouyuan, Sima Xun, Seng Buhui, Bai Yuning.

The atmosphere was vaguely subtle.

Fan Yu'er took in the expressions of everyone present, then stood up slowly, toasted them with a glass of wine in her hand, smiled and said:

"I'm glad you can come to the banquet. Tonight is neither an assessment nor a competition. Let's just treat it as an ordinary gathering and exchange."

"I'll do it first out of respect!"

After Fan Yuer finished speaking, she drank it all in one gulp.

Yu Wenzhou on the side smiled brightly and said: "It's not easy for us from three continents to meet each other. I don't know if we will have a chance to see each other again when we go back. So let's put aside the bad feelings in the competition for the time being and have a good communication.

It deserves the name of the exchange meeting."

"Brother Yuwen is right." Murong Heng held up his wine glass and toasted Jing Yuwenzhou with a smile.

Yu Wenzhou responded with a smile.

At this time, Mo Jing stood up suddenly, raised the wine bottle and took a sip, and then said with a hearty smile: "I am Mo Jing, welcome all fellow Taoists to come to me to discuss and discuss."

Sima Xun picked up a piece of fat meat, bit it in one bite, and said with a smile while chewing: "When it comes to fighting, we should fight with Brother Mo and Brother Mu. They are particularly resistant to beatings and are very interesting."

All the geniuses: "..."

Gong Liyuan smiled slightly and said, "In a few days, we will enter the Nine Gates of the Great Wilderness together. The Nine Gates of the Great Wilderness are dangerous and unpredictable. I hope that everyone can come out safely and have the opportunity to sit down together and drink from a jar of wine."

The geniuses present were all moved, and their defenses were broken.

They fought with each other in the game, but after the game, why not shake hands and make peace? After all, they don't know each other without fighting.

Fan Yu'er's eyebrows arched and she smiled and said, "Let's put aside our old grudges and have a drink."

"Okay." They hesitated for a moment, then stood up together.

Murong Heng looked at Mo Jing, sighed slightly and said, "Fellow Daoist Mo, you beat me so hard that I couldn't get up. I forgive you for the time being."

Everyone laughed.

At this time, Gong Liyuan also smiled at Yan Chen and said, "Fellow Taoist Yan, you poisoned me earlier, and I temporarily forgive you."

Yu Wenzhou looked at Yunzheng, shook his head pretending to be disappointed, and said in a joking tone: "Fellow Taoist Yun, you have taken the first place among all of us, so you must perform well and grow well in the future. Only in this way can you

It seems like we’re not that bad.”

Fan Yu'er patted Yu Wenzhou's shoulder with a smile and nodded in agreement.

"This sentence makes sense."

Yunzheng raised her eyebrows, "...Okay."

They clinked glasses together, and the crisp sound of "clang" seemed to indicate that the barrier between them was breaking.

Yunzheng raised her eyes and looked at their young faces, and suddenly thought that hundreds of years later, would they have children in groups? Would they, as elders, come to see their children and grandchildren for an exchange meeting...
