In a house in Wangtian City.

A tall and strong old man was dancing with a spear in the yard. Suddenly, he stopped what he was doing, and looked up at the sky as if he had sensed something.

Just now, he seemed to feel a trace of blood connection. The feeling was indescribable, but it appeared suddenly, and then he shook his head.

"Alas, when people get old, they may miss their loved ones." The old man sighed and said so.

He once again waved the spear in his hand, spiritual energy continuously flowing out of his body. He wanted to numb himself with fatigue and stop missing his deceased relatives.

At this moment, a figure shot into the courtyard at high speed. The old man who was wielding a spear saw this, but he did not stop his movements. He asked the person who came:

"What's going on? You've already broken through to the foundation building stage and become a clan elder, yet you're still so impetuous. It would be disgraceful if the younger generation saw you."

The visitor was a middle-aged man with a look of joy on his face. He ignored the old man's questioning and laughed loudly:

"Haha, I'm so happy! Uncle Master is teaching me that I'm too happy, right?"

Upon hearing this, the old man stopped what he was doing and looked at the family's newly promoted Foundation Establishment Elder. His face became serious and he asked, "I've told you so many times, when you're working, you should use your title. Also, what's the matter that makes you so happy?"

The middle-aged man nodded and smiled, "Okay, Clan Leader, this is a happy event. My son has achieved a breakthrough in the Foundation Establishment stage in the Upper Sect and is now an early Foundation Establishment cultivator. My Juenanwang family has gained another Foundation Establishment cultivator."

The tall and strong old man's solemn expression relaxed upon hearing this. He then laughed at the visitor and said happily:

"Great! Great! You've just achieved Foundation Establishment, and now your son Tianjing has also achieved Foundation Establishment. Since the war, my Wang family's Foundation Establishment has declined. Apart from Tianmei and the other three, now we have another one. It's really wonderful! My Wang family will prosper!"

The burly old man wielding the spear was indeed the current head of the Wang family, Wang Mingfu. Back then, a small group of cultivators from the Hehuan Sect invaded Jueming Valley and broke through Wangtian City. In that battle, apart from the three people in Jueming Valley, Wang Mingfu was the only foundation-building cultivator left in the Wang family. He was rescued by Xuan Kun who happened to arrive, and later led the entire Wang family to flee northward.

Xuan Kun was right. The old man was none other than Wang Mingfu, the only cultivator in the late Foundation Establishment stage in the city. After the Wang family won the last war, they moved back to Wangtian City under the leadership of Wang Mingfu.

After all, Wangtian City is the place where the Wang family made their fortune and one of its foundations. Naturally, it cannot be given up easily. However, after the family's foundation-building cultivators died in battle, there are too few people who have established the foundation now. Someone in the Wang family has made a breakthrough, and as the patriarch of the family, Wang Mingfu is naturally very happy.

……

Xuantian Kingdom, at the mountain gate of Jueming Valley.

Next to a waterfall stream with rich spiritual energy, there is a path leading to the waterfall. On both sides of the path, flowers of various colors are blooming, the fragrance of flowers is everywhere, and all kinds of spiritual butterflies and insects are flying everywhere.

In the waterfall cave, two figures were sitting opposite each other. Both were dressed in purple, one male and one female. The male was gentle and elegant, while the female was beautiful and cold.

The gentle man looked at the person opposite him and said, "Bing'er, do you know? I just got the news that a year ago, the Hehuan branch sect built on the site of the Five Elements Sect was destroyed..."

Before he could finish his words, the cold-natured woman rolled her eyes at him and interrupted, "Oh! Juexuan, you're so out of touch with the news! Didn't this happen over a year ago? The spies on the border reported it a long time ago. You wouldn't have missed it all this time, right?"

As the cold woman spoke, her already cold expression slowly turned icy. She stared at the person opposite her and said solemnly, "After my father's death, as the strongest person in Jueming Valley, you have to be more careful."

This gentle and elegant man is none other than Jueming Valley's strongest cultivator today, Juexuan Zhenren, who is in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, and this cold and aloof woman is none other than his Taoist companion Leng Bing'er.

Seeing this, Juexuan's expression changed. He put away his playful nature, slowly stood up, came behind Leng Bing'er, raised his hand to press her shoulders, and said slowly in a gentle tone:

"Leng'er, you misunderstood. I know our current situation very well. How could I just focus on cultivation and ignore worldly affairs?"

In the past, Juexuan just practiced blindly to improve his own realm and strength, and did not have much understanding and management of the sect's affairs.

But since the Yin-Yang Sect of the Demonic Path invaded Xuantian Kingdom eighteen years ago, Jueming Valley and Jinling Sect, located in the southernmost part of Xuantian Kingdom, have been the first to bear the brunt.

Later, the five major forces of Xuantian Kingdom formed an alliance to fight against the devil, and fought a decisive battle at Qingchi Plain in the southwest of Jueming Valley. After that battle, Xuantian Kingdom won the war after the ancestor of the Tian family broke through to the level of a god.

But Jueming Valley was the biggest victim of that battle. The most important person in a large sect is the sect's Nascent Soul ancestor. There are a total of six Nascent Soul cultivators in the entire Jueming Valley.

One of them is a great cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage. He is Leng Bing'er's father, Juexuan's father-in-law, and Leng Hunming, known as the Nine Swords Monk.

It was precisely because of Leng Hunming's existence that Juexuan's cultivation environment was created, and the previous peace and stability of Jueming Valley was created.

In that battle, Leng Hunming died in battle, becoming the strongest person to die in the invasion of the demonic sect. Among them, two early Nascent Soul cultivators, both of whom were their elders, were also killed in Juemingu.

Today, Jueming Valley no longer has the fame it once had, simply because of Leng Hunming's death in battle and the decrease in the number of Nascent Soul cultivators.

Nowadays, all the major sects in Xuantian Kingdom respect the Tian Family, and Jueming Valley is no exception. Although the Tian Family has become the supreme sect of all major forces, it does not impose too many restrictions on them. It still operates as before, and each sect only needs to pay tribute. If nothing major happens, the Tian Family cultivators will not take action.

However, after Jueming Valley lost this great cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage, the territory was fraught with dangers. All kinds of evil spirits poured in, and the previous [Evil Gu Taoist] was one of them. It became a place with internal and external troubles like the Jinling Sect.

Juexuan knew that Leng Bing'er was tired from dealing with various matters during this period because of her father's death and the fall of the Yuanying senior in the sect. She inevitably had higher expectations of him, her only support, and could not afford to make any mistakes. After all, the current Jueming Valley could no longer bear it.

Juexuan gently pressed her shoulders and said again calmly: "What I want to say is that after the Hehuan branch sect was destroyed, the main Hehuan sect in the south of Tianhuai country was also attacked."

Leng Bing'er's brows relaxed, she closed her eyes and rested, raised her delicate hand and pressed one of Juexuan's hands, nodded, and replied in a cold voice:

"I know what you're talking about. Although the Hehuan Sect intended to conceal it, such a big thing still leaked out. According to intelligence, the Hehuan Sect's formation was destroyed. I'm sorry, husband... I misunderstood you."

Juexuan smiled slightly, without a trace of displeasure on his face. He understood his wife and said slowly again, "That's right, but the latest news I received is more than that.

The news said that two Nascent Soul cultivators from the Hehuan Sect were also killed, one of whom was in the middle Nascent Soul stage. Currently, the Hehuan Sect only has one Nascent Soul cultivator, Chongshan, in the early Nascent Soul stage.
