Chapter 435 What Do You Think
After the battle in Black Stone Valley, Du Yucheng finally got rid of the pursuit of Xiaoyao Sect. Not long after, he was hiding outside when he suddenly found a restriction left in his body by Xiao Huang, and suddenly disappeared.
This restriction has always been Xiao Huang's backup to control him. It stands to reason that he can only wait for Xiao Huang to help him remove it, or he can only remove it by himself when his cultivation breaks through to the Golden Core Realm.
But it suddenly dissipated automatically, which really made Du Yucheng a little confused at first. After a while, Du Yucheng's injuries were completely healed, but he found that Xiao Huang had never contacted him.
Du Yucheng didn't know what to do at once, so he could only sneak back to the vicinity of Black Stone Valley. When he returned, he found that there was no trace of Xiao Huang in the Demon Suppression Tower. Du Yucheng suddenly realized that Xiao Huang might have been completely killed by Xiaoyao Sect.
After that, although Du Yucheng got rid of Xiao Huang's control and regained his freedom, he fell into a state of confusion again because he lost Xiao Huang, the master who led him into the magic way.
Without the guidance of a famous teacher, Du Yucheng's own cultivation talent was not very strong. His subsequent cultivation was always unsuccessful and he encountered obstacles everywhere. Until now, his cultivation has not yet broken through to the seventh level of foundation building.
Fortunately, not long after Du Yucheng went out to collect spiritual objects, he happened to meet Ma Wuchen who came to the Black Stone Valley to investigate Xiao Huang's whereabouts.
Because Du Yucheng knew the inside story of the Black Stone Valley and knew some of the things that happened after the Black Stone Valley War, he took advantage of these things and took the initiative to serve under Ma Wuchen and provided him with a lot of useful information. He wanted to find a master to support himself again, so that he could have a glimmer of hope for Dan in the future.
Ma Wuchen glanced at Du Yucheng, smiled and nodded gently, and then took out a red pill from his body and threw it into Du Yucheng's hand.
"I promised you last time, and I will not break my promise. But if you want to join my sect, you need to show your loyalty first.
This is the Blood Evil Pill that I made. After taking it, it can strengthen your blood essence. As long as you are obedient in the future, this pill will be of great benefit to you. But if you dare to betray me, it will also make you live a life worse than death.
I don't like to force you. If you are willing, take this pill. If not, just leave here. We will leave here in two hours. You can figure out what to choose!"
After Ma Wuchen finished speaking, he gently patted Du Yucheng's shoulder, then stood up and left the cave. The other two men in black robes smiled at Du Yucheng who was still in a daze, and followed him out.
After everyone in the cave left, Du Yucheng's somewhat dull face instantly turned into a sinister look when he looked at the Blood Evil Pill in his hand that seemed to be able to swallow him instantly.
——
Three years later, at the foot of the Song family's Funiu Mountain.
On this day, Song Yuanfang, who had just returned from a family mission at the foot of the mountain, saw from afar a man standing at the gate of his own mountain with his hands behind his back, looking up at a three-foot-high stone tablet inserted above the gate.
Seeing that this person had been standing at the mountain gate without entering, Song Yuanfang thought that this person was a cultivator from another nearby family who came to pay respects to the mountain, so he hurriedly stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Excuse me, fellow Taoist, what is the matter with you coming to my Song family?"
As he finished speaking, the person who had been staring at the stone tablet above finally moved, slowly turned around and smiled, saying, "Who erected this stone tablet here?"
When Song Yuanfang saw this person's appearance, he immediately felt a very familiar feeling. He immediately bowed down and shouted loudly, "Yuanfang is short-sighted and did not recognize the clan leader. I hope that the seventh uncle will forgive me."
Song Qingming waved his hand slightly, motioning Song Yuanfang to stand up, and said softly, "I have rarely come out these years. You young people can't recognize me at once, so I can't blame you."
There are already two generations between the Yuan generation cultivators of the Song family and Song Qingming. Most of their generation of cultivators are not very familiar with Song Qingming, and they rarely have the opportunity to meet the high and mighty clan leader who lives on the top of the mountain.
After Song Yuanfang stood up, he immediately explained: "Clan leader, this "Careful Words Monument" was set here by the ancestor Qingyu two years ago to warn the cultivators in the clan that they need to be careful when they act outside and not to brag about important matters in the clan with others."
"Oh! Has Qingyu come back? After she set up the "Careful Words Monument", have you all followed the rules in the past two years? Are there any who refuse to change their ways?" Song Qingming nodded and asked with a smile.
"It should be gone recently. In the past two years, the ancestor Qingyu issued a strict order to rectify the bad atmosphere in the clan. Any cultivator who does not follow the rules will be punished by the ancestor Qingyu to guard the spirit mine in Baiyang Mountain. Now everyone is indeed much more careful when going out. Some people don't even dare to touch the spirit wine."
"Haha! The family has developed too fast in recent years. Some of you young people are becoming more and more arrogant and ignorant of the world when you act outside. It's time for someone to set up rules for everyone.
Yuanfang, come with me for a walk, and tell me what has happened in the mountain in the past few years. "After Song Qingming finished speaking, he raised his hand and waved it gently. The stone steps that were originally vague became clear in an instant, and then he strode up.
Song Yuanfang, who had been standing respectfully by the side, was overjoyed when he heard Song Qingming's greeting, and quickly followed Song Qingming into the formation.
The two walked up the mountain side by side, and Song Yuanfang's mind was also very alert, trying to tell in detail all the major and minor events that happened in the Song family in the three years after Song Qingming left.
It must be said that although Song Yuanfang is not very old, his brain is very useful. When Song Qingyu returned, the Song family rang the Tiange bell that had not moved for a hundred years. When Song Qingyu returned, the Song family rang the Tiange bell that had not moved for a hundred years. When Song Yuanfang was small, he could quickly summarize the cause and effect of the matter. Okay, let's talk about it later.
Song Yuanfang is the thirteenth in the Yuan generation. Although his spiritual root talent is not as outstanding as Song Yuanli of the same generation, he is also a three-spiritual root cultivator. He has cultivated to the seventh level of Qi Refining at the age of more than 30 years old. He is already very good among his peers. If he has the opportunity to be valued by the clan leader Song Qingming, he will have great hope of building a foundation in the future.
Unknowingly, the two of them have come to the meeting hall on the mountain while chatting all the way. Song Qingming looked at the large square outside the Song family meeting hall in front of him, and suddenly turned around and said to Song Yuanfang on the side:
"Since the "Careful Words Monument" has such a good effect on improving the family atmosphere, I think it's better to erect a more eye-catching stone monument here to warn all the clansmen on the mountain at all times.
Yuanfang, what do you think?"
