Who let him join the Sword Sect!

Chapter 223 The Gu family
There is no possession of body, no earth-shattering battle, or any conspiracy against the will of heaven.

The two Sword Sect disciples, who were many generations apart, stood in the deserted square and chatted casually about trivial matters.

"Is Jian Zong still there?" Wei Zhuang asked.

"It's still there, and doing very well. Now that Dongzhou has been divided, our Sword Sect has the largest territory."

This time Zhang Ze spoke in detail, without any exaggeration, and simply recounted the major events that had happened in recent years step by step.

"What does the Sword Sect think of me now?"

But after Zhang Ze finished speaking, Wei Zhuang asked a strange question.

Hearing this, Zhang Ze was a little confused and didn't know how to respond.

It’s not that Senior Wei Zhuang has a very bad reputation, but that there is no evaluation at all.

There is actually no record related to Wei Zhuang in the Sword Sect.

Although Zhang Ze was not good at studying history, he was not so bad as to forget a person's name.

Zhang Ze only heard a few things about Wei Zhuang from the sect leader and his junior sister.

He only knew two things.

The first thing was that Wei Zhuang wore the Night Demon Emperor Armor to fight with Xi Bian, and then he got lost.

The second thing is that the sect leader said that Senior Wei Zhuang is a family man.

"The sect leader said that you care about the Gu family." After thinking about it, Zhang Ze said dryly.

"Gu family?" Wei Zhuang smiled upon hearing this. "Who is the current sect leader?"

"It is inconvenient for the disciple to address the Sect Master by his name. He should address you as Uncle."

"Chen Tianming's grandson. Interesting." Wei Zhuang reminisced for a moment and then jokingly said, "How come I didn't know you were so polite? You weren't like this in my dream."

Then Chen Tianming is the sect leader’s grandfather.

Zhang Ze smiled awkwardly. Although he was polite to everyone during the three years in the spiritual realm, he played with cats and dogs a lot because he was really bored and wanted to explore the spiritual realm.

“…So you have actually been awake all the time?” Zhang Ze suddenly asked.

"I still know what Brother Zhang did." Wei Zhuang picked up the teacup but found that there was no tea in it. He shook the teacup lightly, and the tea filled the cup.

"Please don't tease me. I can't bear to be called Brother Zhang." Zhang Ze waved his hand quickly.

"I woke up a long time ago, I just wanted to sleep a little longer." Wei Zhuang stopped teasing Zhang Ze, but his words were somewhat contradictory.

After a moment of silence, Wei Zhuang spoke.

"Let me tell you a few trivial things, would you like to hear them?"

"Senior, please speak."

Then Zhang Ze learned two private matters.

The first thing was that Wei Zhuang didn't seem to care much about his family. He only stayed in the Sword Sect for three years before being sent to the Dongqi Imperial City.

The one who came to greet him was the eunuch in the square, but in his dream, he appeared early and then disappeared.

The second thing is the reason why Wei Zhuang left.

The reason why he left the Sword Sect was actually very simple.

He stabbed a prince to death with a sword.

But the Immortal Emperor was ruthless and loved talents. He felt that he had many sons but few good ones.

The useless son is already gone, which is a small loss, but losing another talented person like this useless son would be a big loss.

Therefore, Wei Zhuang was not punished, but was brought into the imperial city and kept by his side.

I plan to train it myself.

During those years, Dong Qi was invincible and the whole world had to look up to it, even the Sword Sect.

I was already in the wrong, so I had no choice but to accept the fact that my disciple was taken away by someone else.

After listening to this, Zhang Ze felt that there was nothing wrong with what the Gu family said.

Ignoring my family, why did this long dream last only three years?

Wei Zhuang saw Zhang Ze's admiration and shook his head.

"I'm not as powerful as you think. I just started dreaming recently." Wei Zhuang continued, "I actually woke up after those people triggered the seal here. I just don't want to leave."

"Why?" Zhang Ze was puzzled.

"Not ready." Wei Zhuang replied.

Seeing Zhang Ze hesitate to speak, Wei Zhuang said, "At our level of cultivation, it's quite common for old friends to pass away, even for family members."

Everyone has to die, including me."

But the vicissitudes of life are disturbing. Dongqi is gone, and I am afraid that the Sword Sect is gone too. So I can only stay here half asleep and half awake. I don’t want to know what is happening outside.

"If it's really gone, what are you going to do?" Zhang Ze asked.

"I don't want to do anything. I'm just a handful of undead earth. If everything really ends, then what happened today has nothing to do with me. I'll just be lonely for the rest of my life."

After saying that, Wei Zhuang stood up.

"Where are you going?" Zhang Ze stood up.

"Let's go to the Sword Sect." Wei Zhuang turned and looked at Zhang Ze, "I'm from the Gu family."

Wei Zhuang obviously had many things to say, but since he didn't want to say anything, Zhang Ze didn't dare to ask.

Obviously, the clan leader has to hear those words first.

"Disciple will lead the way for you."

Although this exchange cannot be said to have been passed down through the ages, it is rare and normal.

Unfortunately, Zhang Ze's side always starts well but ends badly, and normal things usually end abnormally.

This place is where Wu Man sealed Wei Zhuang, and the huge Tai Sui is also part of the barrier.

Ten thousand years passed, and the barrier loosened, allowing people from the Hundred Demons Sect to stumble upon him by chance. They thought it was some kind of chance encounter, which led to all the misunderstandings that followed.

Now that the matter is over, Mr. Wei Zhuang is eager to return home, so naturally he wants to kill the Tai Sui and escape.

As Wei Zhuang stood up, the surrounding scenery became blurry and illusory, like flowers in the fog. A bronze sword appeared in Wei Zhuang's hand. With a light wave of his hand, the world became clear.

The huge Tai Sui vanished into thin air, and the dream dissipated.

And then, the scene afterwards was not very pretty.

After escaping from the illusory dream, Zhang Ze felt refreshed, his domineering aura was shaken, and the sword light around him flickered.

Senior Wei Zhuang naturally had the demeanor of a master, standing with his hands behind his back, looking calm and composed.

But here's the problem.

The two of them were probably dreaming and confused, and forgot what they were wearing.

Zhang Ze wore a strange mask on his head, and the black tights outlined his body shape clearly.

And Wei Zhuang also wore a strange mask, but he was not wearing any clothes, and his body shape turned back into that of a child?
I don’t know if it has anything to do with Wu Man’s seal.

But no clothes means no clothes.

Fortunately, they were all wearing masks, so it was somewhat concealed.

The main reason is that Zhang Ze forgot about the Night Demon Emperor Armor.

The thing that kicked him here twice in a row was Wei Zhuang's authentic Night Demon Emperor Armor.

The magic weapon was spiritual and the barrier was loosened, but the owner was unwilling to leave, and it could not wake up Wei Zhuang, so it had no choice but to leave first.

In that great battle, not only Wei Zhuang was injured, but the Night Demon Emperor Armor was also broken and torn, leaving only the interior intact. All he could do was kick Zhang Ze when the time was right.

I don’t know what that set of clothes revealed, so I brought Zhang Ze here specially.

And since the clothes are gone, the owner is naturally naked.

But the next second, Zhang Ze's eyes blurred. When he opened his eyes, Zhang Ze was taken away from this Central Continent Jedi by Wei Zhuang.

I don’t know where it came from, but the boss of Renwei Zhuang already had a set of decent clothes on him. He was holding a tattered black tights in one hand.

The other hand was holding Zhang Ze, who was wearing a black tights.

Just like Conan captured the man in black with one hand.

He didn't mention what happened just now, as if nothing had happened.

"Where are you from?" Wei Zhuang was a little confused.

Zhang Ze twisted around, unable to break free, so he explained, "I got it from the Hundred Demon Sect. I don't know where they found the ritual to refine the Emperor Armor, but they made a replica."

[Whenever they get into trouble or encounter anything they can't explain, they always blame it on the Hundred Demons Sect. They're good at taking the blame. - Zhang Ze] Wei Zhuang didn't delve into it. "Change it. It's quite embarrassing to wear this."

Zhang Ze nodded, feeling that Senior Wei Zhuang was truly a close friend.

He took out the beast-controlling ring that served as a changing room and went straight in. When he came out, he was already dressed.

Wei Zhuang, in his child form, spoke with an air of old age, which was quite strange. He glanced at the broken earth beneath him and shook his head.

"You said before that if we go east, we can enter Jingzhou. There is a sword pavilion of our Sword Sect in Jingzhou?"

"Exactly."

Jingzhou.

Zhang Ze didn’t know which city it was, and he didn’t recognize it either. He was brought back directly by Boss Wei Zhuang.

After Wei Zhuang dropped him off on a street, he walked away with his hands behind his back.

Just say you're just strolling around here, but don't tell your leader yet.

"Please don't come looking for me. I want to look around by myself."

Looking at the back of Wei Zhuang, who had regained his youth and looked like a little adult, Zhang Ze didn't pay much attention.

After all, although his body has become smaller, his mind is still flexible, and he is still the omnipotent uncle of the Sword Sect.

If someone wants to kidnap this old man, he is truly blessed.

He found an inn across the street as a temporary place to stay, and then released Bai Tao.

After Bai Tao, who knew nothing, came out of the beast-controlling ring, Zhang Ze told Bai Tao roughly what had happened.

Starting from the Beast Taming Sect, I picked out everything I could say and went through it with Bai Tao.

After listening, Bai Tao shook Zhang Ze's hand and said, "Please add this story to my book. And as for Senior Xia Yan, could you please introduce him to me?"

"What are you looking for her for?"

"Do business!"

"to be honest."

"I think Teacher Xia Yan is also a great talent. It would be a pity if he didn't write a book. I would like to invite Teacher Xia Yan to come out of retirement!"

Looking at the possessed literary girl fox in front of him, Zhang Ze threw the job away.

"Your childhood friend, Huixue, seems to still be there. Just contact her."

The group of demon cultivators who came all the way from Wangyang City to study in the Sword Sect are now all in the Beast Taming Sect.

Firstly, the food of the Beast Taming Sect is to their liking, and secondly, no one cares about them.

Anyway, what Wangyang City meant was that it didn't matter where these problem children went, but it would be best if they could travel around the four continents and see more.

Just don't go home recently.
Looking at Bai Tao's hurried back, Zhang Ze suddenly felt that the strength of the demon clan might be the best among the four continents.

From top to bottom, there are basically few reliable ones
Judging from the direction Bai Tao left, she probably planned to fly directly to the Beast Taming Sect. As for the business here, she should not have forgotten it.

Mafuyu Trading Company is lucky to have such a literary girl fox.

But after a while, Bai Tao ran back and stuffed a jade token into Zhang Ze's hand.

"What is this?" Zhang Ze wanted to open the jade bottle and smell it, but was held back by Bai Tao.

"I have no use for keeping the concentrated essence from the two vats of corpse-transforming water, so I'm giving it to you, Teacher. Goodbye, Teacher."

This time, he really ran away without a trace.

However, Bai Tao's remarks attracted the attention of the people around him. Several brave men who looked chivalrous looked at Zhang Ze with unfriendly expressions. A casual cultivator even secretly took out a small walnut and slapped Zhang Ze's face.

Judging from his expression, he was probably planning to report himself to the nearby training hall.

After all, who would use that thing for no reason, two cylinders at a time.

Helplessly, Zhang Ze snapped his fingers, golden light flashed, a gentle breeze blew, and he disappeared from the spot in a dashing manner.

This was an escape technique he developed when he was bored in the spiritual realm.

It’s not difficult, it’s just a strengthening of Longhu Mountain’s Five Elements Escape Technique.

When casting the spell, without affecting the speed, it comes with a meditation technique and a tortoise breathing technique.

You can reduce your presence when running away, and give off a psychological suggestion that although you are running away, you are actually a good person.

After running away, Zhang Ze saw that it was still early, so he decided to find a target to practice on.

The three-year period has passed, and it is time for Zhang Longwang to come out of the mountains.

It's just that Jingzhou was too good, and the branch of the demon sect that was planning to make a comeback was wiped out again.

Zhang Ze tried to find a target strong enough, but he couldn't find one.

After much thought, I can only try my luck at the training hall.

After showing the token and finding the local training hall, Zhang Ze went directly to the place where the tasks were distributed.

But no matter how you look at it, there is no such simple and convenient task.

Where to chop and who to chop.

I looked for a long time, but only found three similar ones.

[Recently, there have been rumors of monsters causing trouble in Bandang Mountain, stopping people on the road and asking them to stop. Although no one was injured, passersby were terrified.

According to the cultivators who encountered the monster, this monster has reached the Golden Elixir stage and its origin is unknown. It looks like a wolf, but only one of its heads looks like a human, and it is as big as a car or boat.

Disciples are required to investigate. If they are harmless, they will be packed up and sent to the Beast Taming Sect.]

[An unknown monster appeared around the Lingyu Pagoda, trampling the trees. No one was injured, and it had already fled into the mountains.

According to the mountain people, this monster is two beasts in one body, shaped like two pillars, without head or tail, and makes a terrifying sound when it runs.

Disciples are needed to investigate. Beast Taming Sect.]

[The evil cultivators in Fenglongpo had an internal conflict, and several of them died. However, according to the disciples of the Sword Sect who were present at the scene, there are still remnants. A giant headless python broke out of the ground in that stronghold, cultivated to the level of Golden Elixir, and ran away to the mountains. It is suspected that it was transformed by evil magic.

Disciples are needed to investigate. Beast Taming Sect.]

Zhang Ze looked at these three tasks and decided to go to Bandang Mountain.

The other two places are too far away from here, especially Fenglongpo, which is almost at the border of Cangshan Mountain.

It’s too late to go back and forth.

Moreover, the monster in Bandang Mountain did not escape like the other two monsters. Instead, it stopped people on the road and asked them about it earlier.

It just so happened that Zhang Ze also had a few new methods of arresting people.

No matter whether it is a good animal or a bad one, catch it first. If you don’t see it, you will still have time to return at night.

Having made up his mind, Zhang Ze accepted the mission as a disciple of the Sword Sect. After leaving a note for Wei Zhuang in the inn, he headed towards Bandang Mountain.

Bandang Mountain.

The wind and rain in the mountains were changing, the weather was unpredictable, the sky was clear just now, but in the blink of an eye it was covered with dark clouds, and there was a faint sound of thunder in the sky.

A group of foreign merchants saw something strange in the sky and immediately stopped, spread out their tarpaulin by the roadside and leaned against their carriages to take shelter from the rain.

Judging from the attire and the doors of their car, this group of people came from the direction of Cangshan, but they did not have the same business name, so they were probably just a group.

The leading warrior looked at the increasingly gloomy sky and frowned, as if he was a little worried.

Soon, heavy rain came.

The warrior turned to ask the guide, "Will the strange phenomena from heaven drive the monsters from the deep mountains and old forests here? We don't have any monks here."

The guide shook his head.

"Absolutely not. Both sides of this mountain road have been cleared over and over again by the Sword Sect's Immortal Master. Even if there were any, they would have escaped long ago."

"You came with us from Zhu County, and the news you knew about Jingzhou was only a month ago. How can you be so sure? Why are you so sure?"

The warrior refused to give in, feeling as though he were being watched. Furthermore, he and the guide had been having some disagreements along the way.

"What do you mean by that? Are you suspecting me, Jingzhou, or me, Mengsan?"

The guide was also indignant.

The two were about to argue when a shopkeeper stepped forward and separated them. "It's not unpredictable in the mountains. You two are also considering the caravan. Don't let this petty thing ruin your relationship. Give me some respect."

But before he could finish his words, the sky suddenly darkened. A large creature emerged from the dense forest in front of him. His body and tail could not be seen clearly. His two eyes were as big as lanterns, shining with golden light.

"Look at me, do I look like a dragon?"

This thing asked.
