Venerable Yuan

With the departure of Lu Hong, the atmosphere in the square became relaxed, but Shen Taiyuan still looked a little unhappy, and he obviously didn't expect that he would speak with his old face this time, but Lu Hong still didn't give him any face.

Elder Lu Song on the side came forward and sighed helplessly: "You know clearly that this person looks down on us, why do you still say such things?"

He glanced at Zhou Yuan, and actually understood in his heart that Shen Taiyuan accepted Zhou Yuan as a disciple, and he must have attached great importance to it, so he wanted to create the best training conditions for him.

And the Ziyuan Cave Mansion is obviously a must.

Shen Taiyuan looked gloomy and said: "The villain succeeds."

Lu Song shook his head and asked, "Are you sure about the hole test?"

When Shen Taiyuan heard this, his face looked a little gloomy.

Originally, the caves in Saint Origin Peak were exclusively occupied by his and Lu Song's lineage, but since Lu Hong's lineage transferred from Jianlai Peak a year ago, Saint Origin Peak has never been peaceful again.

Because Lu Hong's lineage also needs the cave, the ownership of the cave must be calculated again.

And this hole test comes from this.

The so-called cave test actually means that each side of the competition sends three disciples to compete with each other based on their strength. The winner in the end will be able to obtain the ownership of the cave.

In the past year, Lu Hong's lineage has launched many cave tests, and they basically won more and lost less. After all, the quality of his disciples was indeed better than that of Shen and Lu.

Now, there is only one Ziyuan Cave Mansion left, so Lu Hong has been eyeing it covetously.

Shen Taiyuan naturally coveted this last Ziyuan Cave, but he knew that his lineage might no longer be able to compete with Lu Hong's lineage.

Because according to the rules, each disciple can only participate in the competition for the cave test once in a year, and now, Shen Taiyuan's disciples, such as Zhou Tai and other powerful disciples, have all taken action when the battle was the most intense, so In this cave test, he could only send some golden belt disciples to compete.

Although the purple-belt disciples of Lu Hong's lineage have also taken action long ago, Shen Taiyuan knows that there are several gold-belt disciples under Lu Hong's sect who are extremely powerful, such as Wu Gang.

In comparison, the gold belt disciples of his lineage were slightly inferior.

Therefore, Shen Taiyuan did not have much confidence in the cave test one month later.

"How about we wait a little longer, and we can start fighting again at the beginning of next year." Lu Song also knew this situation, so he whispered. Shen Taiyuan's expression changed for a moment, but in the end he still shook his head stubbornly and said, "I will find a way."

After the words fell, he said no more, waved his hand to Lu Song, then glanced at Zhou Yuan and the others, and walked away.

"Junior brother Zhou Yuan, we will all be brothers from now on." Zhou Tai smiled at Zhou Yuan. He seemed to be a very upright person.

Zhou Yuan also smiled, clasped his fists, and said, "I've met Senior Brother Zhou Tai."

Zhou Taidao: "Although Master Shen seems not easy to get in touch with, he really values ​​you."

Zhou Yuan nodded lightly. Although he had not been in contact with Shen Taiyuan for too long, his previous actions had also fallen into his eyes. The latter had a conflict with Lu Hong, obviously to help him win the last Ziyuan Cave Mansion, so as to benefit him. practice.

This actually touched him slightly.

After all, if he were a normal person, he probably wouldn't be too willing to offend an elder of comparable status for the sake of a disciple.

"Senior Brother Zhou Tai, if this is difficult to do, please advise Master Shen not to do it." Zhou Yuan said, although he was not very clear about the situation yet, but he could feel it. Lu Hong seemed to be interested in Shen Taiyuan. Wanting to fight for that Ziyuan Cave Mansion is quite disdainful.

Apparently this was because he felt he had a winning chance.

Zhou Taize gave a wry smile and said, "Since Master Shen has made this decision, I'm afraid it will be difficult to persuade him. His character... no one can persuade him."

He immediately patted Zhou Yuan on the shoulder and said comfortingly: "You don't have to worry about this matter. If I hadn't already participated in the cave test before, then I would help you win the last Ziyuan Cave Mansion."

Zhou Yuan nodded when he heard this and said nothing more.

After many disciples bowed to Elder Lu Song, they followed Elder Shen Taiyuan away.

Lu Song looked at Shen Taiyuan and the others leaving, sighed helplessly, and said: "This old man Shen seems to really attach great importance to that little guy Zhou Yuan. In order to help him win the last Ziyuan Cave Mansion, he actually We have to have a head-on confrontation with Lu Hong."

Lu Yan walked over with long legs and said, "Can Elder Shen win the fight?"

Although all three lines have competition, their lineage and Shen Taiyuan's lineage have been getting along for many years, but Lu Hong's lineage came by air, and their methods were too overbearing, so emotionally speaking, they naturally hope for Shen Taiyuan's lineage. Can win.

Lu Song shook his head and said: "It's difficult. The disciples under Lu Hong's sect are indeed of good quality. Even though the purple belt disciples have already taken action, some gold belt disciples should not be underestimated. For example, Wu Gang, even in the Taichu realm They are all the best in the fifth heaven, and it is difficult for Old Shen’s golden belt disciples to find anyone who can compete with them.”

"That Zhou Yuan can become the number one in the Mountain Selection Ceremony, he must have some skills, right? I wonder if he will take action?" A purple belt disciple on the side said with a smile.

When Lu Yan heard this, she lightly curled her red lips and said, "You think too highly of him. The first place in the mountain selection ceremony is only compared to those disciples from the outer mountain. Now this is the inner mountain, how can he succeed?" To qualify for majesty, let’s practice honestly for a year or two first.”

She was not looking down upon it, but it was the truth. Lu Feng, whom Zhou Yuan tried his best to defeat in that grand ceremony, was only at the peak of the fourth level of Taichu Realm. And which golden belt disciple in Inner Mountain is not so powerful now?

Some outstanding golden-belt disciples have even entered the fifth heaven, such as Wu Gang, who is even more powerful. Even among the many golden-belt disciples in Saint Origin Peak, he is ranked high.

Therefore, in her opinion, although Zhou Yuan's talent is not weak, he may not be able to intervene in the battles among the many golden belt disciples when he first entered the inner mountain. For now, he should practice honestly first.

The purple-belt disciple also smiled when he heard this. What he said before was mostly a joke. Seeing Lu Yan's rebuttal, he naturally nodded and said: "What the junior sister said is that the first place in the mountain selection ceremony in previous years was also It’s not like there aren’t people who eventually become ordinary and disappear into the background, after all, not everyone can be as evil as Senior Brother Chu Qing.”

Lu Yan rolled her eyes at him and said with some dissatisfaction: "Can't you just use someone to compare with Senior Brother Chu Qing?"

"Senior Brother Chu Qing entered Inner Mountain less than a year ago, but he directly became a purple belt disciple. The speed of promotion is unmatched by anyone."

She is obviously a loyal admirer of Chu Qing, and naturally feels that the latter is unmatched.

"Haha, yes, it's my fault. I shouldn't compare my junior sister's idol with others. Although Zhou Yuan is also the first in the Mountain Selection Ceremony, how can he be compared with senior brother Chu Qing." The purple belt disciple laughed. , apologized.

Lu Yan nodded with satisfaction.

After hearing what the two of them said, Elder Lu Song also smiled, waved his hands and turned away without saying anything.

"Let's go."

"I hope Old Shen won't lose too badly in the hole test in January, otherwise I won't be able to see this old guy smile for more than half a year..."
