I was forced to leave the world of immortal cultivation after being transformed into a loser.

In the afternoon, a piece of news was circulating in Zhuque City. This news said that Zhuque would descend to Cangwu Realm on the day when the Dongfeng Family recruited new members, and come to the place where it ascended to retrieve what belonged to it.

The next morning, the four major families in Suzaku City held an emergency meeting. The meeting was held at the Cheng family, which was relatively close to the Dongfeng family.

The four major families in Suzaku City are the Dongfeng family, the Cheng family, the Lin family and the Bai family. In Suzaku City, the heads of these four families can cause an earthquake with just a stomp of their feet.

They have restrained each other, achieving a delicate balance over the past twenty years and jointly governing Suzaku City.

When the news originally came out, the other three families thought it was the Dongfeng family that released the news, after all, it also mentioned the time point when the Dongfeng family was recruiting new members.

Patriarch Lin asked, "Patriarch Dongfeng, what do you mean by the Dongfeng family? Why are you releasing such news?"

The Dongfeng family head thought someone was trying to disrupt his family's recruitment. With his beard slightly raised, he looked at the Lin family head with dissatisfaction and said, "Head Lin, we don't know what's going on. Is it that one of you is jealous of our Dongfeng family and is trying to disrupt our recruitment?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the four bosses looked at each other and fell silent for a moment.

The head of the Cheng family planned to arrange a marriage between Cheng Wanyue and Dongfeng Xiamu, so he naturally stood on the side of the Dongfeng family.

He remembered some inexplicable things that happened before.

"I don't know who it is that spread this kind of news. For the past twenty years, our family head has felt that there are some uncontrollable factors in Suzaku City, but he has not been able to find out what they are.

I don't know what this force is up to, but so far, nothing major has happened, and it's just been left unresolved. Do you think this news is the work of this force?"

Patriarch Bai looked at Patriarch Lin, then at Patriarch Dongfeng and said, "The source of this news seems to be near your Dongfeng family. I believe that if it wasn't released by your Dongfeng family, then it must be related to your Dongfeng family."

Patriarch Lin knew that the Cheng family was planning to form an alliance with the Dongfeng family. He said, "Yes, I have the same idea."

The head of the Dongfeng family's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. They were going to put a false accusation on the Dongfeng family.

"My Dongfeng family will not do anything tricky at this critical moment of recruiting new members. What good will this do to the Dongfeng family?

"Back then, the four great families took some of the Vermillion Bird's techniques and magical instruments. Over a thousand years have passed. Could it possibly be returning to take these things back? These things from the lower realms aren't very important to a divine beast ascending to the immortal realm, are they? It's probably something else."

The four family heads actually all thought so, but they didn't quite believe that Suzaku was really coming to take something. They always felt that it must be a man-made event.

As a result, the meeting went on and on without coming to any conclusion. In the end, they decided to wait and see, and the four family heads left on bad terms.

They all went home and assigned more people to look after the things related to the Vermillion Bird that were worshipped in the family.

There is a vague sense of tension in Suzaku City, as if a storm is about to come.

At this moment, Gu Liyue and the others were learning about some of the relationships within the Dongfeng family from Leng Jiaojiao.

Leng Jiaojiao said: "The head of the Dongfeng family is Brother Xia Mu's grandfather, and he is also a cultivator in the Fusion Stage. He has five children in total, three sons, Lin Yuan, Lin Feng, and Lin Yuan, and two daughters, Ling Shuang and Xi Yue.

There are not many people of my generation in the Dongfeng family. Brother Jiarong is the eldest. He and Brother Luohua are both sons of Uncle Linyuan. Brother Xiamu and Brother Chenshu are sons of Uncle Linfeng. My third uncle Linyuan has a daughter and a son, Min'er and Jingxiao.

Aunt Lingshuang married into the Wang family in Qingwu City and had a daughter, Wang Xiaoting. Aunt Xiyue did not marry.

Wen Qinnuan asked curiously, "It's rare for young ladies from noble families to remain unmarried. Do you know why?"

Leng Jiaojiao said, "I also find this a bit strange, but I don't know the reason. Don't be so curious. The Dongfeng family doesn't seem to allow people to mention this matter. Anyway, it has nothing to do with us."

Gu Liyue said calmly, "That's true. What are the conditions for recruiting new members?"

Leng Jiaojiao said: "Golden Core Stage, the others are irrelevant."

Xiao Ju said: "Didn't you say it was the late stage of foundation building before? Why did the conditions become higher?"

Leng Jiaojiao replied: "I don't know the reason either."

……

In a corner of the Cangwu Realm, a monk in a black cloak was transmitting messages.

"The Vermillion Bird should be in the Cangwu Realm, not in the Qingxuan Continent. It may be in the Vermillion Bird City, intending to retrieve the Vermillion Bird Feather."

The other party replied, "Oh, with your cultivation level, you should be more than capable of dealing with the amnesiac Suzaku this time! Don't make any more mistakes, or I'll be forced to suspect you did it on purpose."

The man in the black cloak said respectfully, "I am truly loyal to you! Your Excellency, please rest assured. This time, I will definitely take it down. I will also go to the Qingxuan Continent to see if the Azure Dragon is still imprisoned. The previous imprisonment seemed to be unstable."

The other party said: "To be on the safe side, you need to be more cautious."

Black Cloak: "Yes, don't worry."

The man in black cloak concluded that in the lower realm of Qingxuan Continent, no cultivator could break the formation.

But it’s better to be careful this time. If I mess up, I’ll probably have no way to survive.

The man in the black cloak flashed and appeared in front of a cave in the Tianque Forest. He pulled aside the vines and walked in calmly.

Place the spirit stone and enter the teleportation array.

……

Qingxuan Continent, the mysterious forest Devil's Canyon.

Yin Chuxue set up an isolation formation around the teleportation array to prevent the students who arrived one after another from seeing what was inside the formation.

Of course, this isolation formation cannot block the spiritual detection of the elders in the Spirit Transformation Stage.

The fifth elder, Ying Fulin, held a tower-shaped magic weapon in one hand and carefully observed the surrounding situation.

Feng Qingyi was directing the students to build houses outside.

Dean Gongsun Xun stood in the void, overlooking everything in the Devil Valley.

Everything is going on in an orderly manner.

Suddenly, he saw the air inside the teleportation array twisted, and someone was using the teleportation array. He felt like he was facing a formidable enemy, and he moved and appeared next to the teleportation array.

At this time, Yin Chuxue, Gua Qingyi and Ying Fulin were already around the teleportation array.

Each of the four big guys stood in a different position, staring at the teleportation array intently.

A faint golden light flashed, and a figure wearing a black cloak appeared.

The four big bosses of Qingxuan Continent took action together.

Instantly, the spiritual power shone brightly, and the man in the black cloak was caught off guard. He was stunned for a moment before waving his hands to block it.

When he raised his hand, black air spread out and collided with spiritual energy.

With a loud "boom", the surrounding space began to distort.
