Chapter 141 – Ye Luo, you\'re coughing up blood

"I didn\'t expect Young Master Ye Luo to have a sensitive side."

Su Yun boarded the dragon carriage and couldn\'t help but take a few more glances at the fat dragon carrying the treasure carriage on its back. The python-transformed dragon seemed a bit dull and lacked spirituality, not as dignified as Jiao Shu\'Ao, who was as steady as the entire village having a meal, nor as agile as his senior sister Chi Xiaoyao.

Young Master Ye Luo closed the door and invited him to sit down, saying seriously, "It\'s not that I\'m sensitive, but I\'m just expressing my feelings. I admire what Big Brother has done. You and I are kindred spirits! Of course, I\'m a little inferior, but it\'s just a little bit. Can I still be considered a kindred spirit?"

He was a little nervous, and he stretched out two fingers to pinch in front of Su Yun, indicating that the gap was only a little bit.

Su Yun\'s mouth twitched, not knowing what to say.

Seeing that he didn\'t refute, Young Master Ye Luo saved face for himself and breathed a sigh of relief, saying, "You made the situation clear at once and attracted the attention of the seven major families to you, giving us the opportunity to move and arrange, allowing us to take action against the seven major families! Big Brother, this is what I admire most about you!"

He stood up, full of spirit, "The first thing we need to do is to ask the Marquis of Shuofang to contact the other sixteen states in Shuobei. There are descendants of the seven major families in these sixteen states, and we need to remove all the public positions of the descendants with real power! The Lin family controls the internal affairs of Shuofang, remove them! The Wu family controls the thieves in Shuofang, remove them! The Lu family controls the household registration in Shuofang, remove them! The Wen family controls the decision-making in Shuofang, remove them!"

He was full of spirit, saying a string of "remove" words, "And the positions of the descendants of the seven major families in the army also need to be removed! At this time, we need to have the determination to cut the Gordian knot with a sharp knife! In addition, the border fortress must be closely monitored, as there may be changes outside the border!"

Although Young Master Ye Luo looked like a playboy and was ignorant, he was extremely clever. He quickly said, "Gu Huaru, the head of the Ge Wu Academy of Wenchang Academy, died outside the border, and the academy\'s scholars also died with him in battle, indicating that the seven major families have begun to target us. And they are definitely colluding with the outside border!"

"The seven major families dare not attack us openly, they can only do it secretly. But with the Marquis of Shuofang, we can directly remove their positions and deprive them of their power!"

"In addition, there are also forces of the seven major families in the court that need to be removed!"

"Not only in the court, but also in the opposition, the forces of the seven major families need to be removed!"

"I will report to the Emperor, and he will handle this matter! With the joint efforts of the court and the opposition, the minions of the seven major families will be cut off!"

Young Master Ye Luo became more and more excited, pacing back and forth, suddenly punching and hitting, "In this way, the turmoil can be confined to Shuofang, which is the most dangerous place! The support of the court will take several days to reach Shuofang by riding the Candle Dragon. Therefore, we need to confront the seven major families. The strength and influence of the seven major families are still formidable."

Su Yun interrupted his thoughts and asked, "Besides this, what about the Old No-Man\'s Land? How do you solve it?"Prince Ye Luo\'s heart trembled slightly. The old wasteland had both an old demon king and a god king, each with extremely powerful forces. If they also attacked the Shuofang region when the seven major families were under attack, it would be dangerous.

Su Yun continued, "The Tong family didn\'t just randomly steal the disaster ash monsters. Where are these monsters now? Does the Tong family have any agreement with them?"

Prince Ye Luo\'s brow furrowed even tighter. The power of the disaster ash monsters was extremely terrifying. These creatures were the strong ones from the previous world, dead but not decaying, ready to be reborn at any time and make a comeback.

The Tong family transporting the disaster ash monsters in the black stone coffin definitely meant something big was happening!

Su Yun added, "Another point is the leader, Xue Ge, which is the person who worries me the most. The Martial Emperor ordered the Tian Dao Academy scholar Zi Ge Long, who has been alive since 150 years ago, to lead. Xue Ge is like a ghost, and his whereabouts are still unknown. If he appears, how will you deal with him?"

Sweat beads appeared on Prince Ye Luo\'s forehead. Su Yun\'s three questions struck his heart directly!

Previously at the Ge Wu Academy, Su Yun\'s challenge to Di Ping almost shattered his heart. Ye Luo had to do his best to overcome his fear and awe of imperial power, and his heart received a significant boost.

But now, Su Yun\'s three questions directly targeted his ability to handle matters, which also hit his heart directly!

If he couldn\'t come up with a solution, he would just be blabbering and showing off his tongue!

The sweat on his forehead grew bigger and bigger, and soon the sweat was rolling down.

"Big Senior Brother is indeed Big Senior Brother!"

Prince Ye Luo stared at Su Yun, his voice hoarse as he said, "Even if I exhausted all my wisdom, I wouldn\'t be able to come up with a solution. Please teach me, Big Senior Brother!"

Su Yun looked out the window and saw that the disaster ash lamp was already lit. The Wen Chang Academy was ahead, and he stood up and said, "I just think that you guys have done too little during my challenge to the seven major families. As for what you should do, I don\'t know. We\'ve arrived at Wen Chang, and I\'ll go down to eat and rest. Junior Brother, you should also go back to rest."

The dragon carriage stopped at the mountain gate, and Su Yun got off the carriage and walked quickly towards the Mountain and Water Residence, thinking to himself, "Little Yao Senior Sister should have prepared dinner by now, right?"

Inside the dragon carriage, Prince Ye Luo was lost and muttered, "How can I sleep? How can I possibly sleep... You used these three difficult questions to test me and see if I\'m qualified to be your confidant. I can definitely solve them..."

He thought hard, his face growing paler and paler, feeling more and more that these three questions were unsolvable.

This night was destined to be sleepless.

In addition to Prince Ye Luo, the heads of the seven major families couldn\'t sleep either. Their ancestors had ordered them to select several outstanding individuals from the spiritualists in their families and send them to the ancestors to study the True Dragon Technique.

This was a rare opportunity!

In the past, only the core descendants knew about the True Dragon Technique and met with the ancestors in seclusion. Being able to meet the ancestors and learn the True Dragon Technique was a lifetime honor for them.However, on this night, the heads of the seven major families knew that the spiritual practitioners selected to learn the True Dragon Technique might not have a good ending.

Although the True Dragon Technique was powerful, Su Yun\'s cultivation strength was extremely high and the time was too short. Tomorrow, Su Yun would choose a family to challenge. It was a life-and-death battle. If his strength was even slightly weaker, he would be beaten to death alive!

Only the families that challenged on the fifth, sixth, and seventh days had a greater chance of winning. The families challenged by Su Yun in the first four days were likely to become his dead souls!

Of course, if they were core disciples who had previously learned the True Dragon Technique, that was another story.

"Han Yan, you have already cultivated to the Yuan Movement realm. Are you sure you want to do this?"

The immortal of the Lu family, Lu Jiangtian, looked solemnly at his son, Han Yan, who was kneeling on the ground. Han Yan remained calm and replied, "Father, few of the disciples in the Lu family have qualifications surpassing mine. If Su Yun is a scholar of the Heavenly Academy, regardless of his cultivation, he will definitely have unique strength. Therefore, I have to abandon the Yuan Movement realm and retain the Spiritual Realm. I have a six or seven-point chance of winning against him. Otherwise, if other brothers and sisters in the clan go to battle, it will be a death sentence!"

Lu Jiangtian sighed, knowing that his son\'s words were indeed the best choice for the Lu family.

Han Yan abandoned the Yuan Movement realm, but his Spiritual Realm was still at the peak of the sixth heaven. Su Yun was only at the first heaven, so his cultivation level was much lower than Han Yan\'s.

In addition, Han Yan was a core disciple of the Lu family. A few years ago, he had met the old immortal of the Lu family, Lu Zhongliu, and learned the True Dragon Technique. Although he had not comprehended it for long, his cultivation strength at the same level was indeed far superior to his peers.

Therefore, Han Yan had a six or seven-point chance of winning.

"Good!"

Lu Jiangtian gritted his teeth and raised his hand. Suddenly, six great heavens appeared behind Han Yan. These six great heavens were different from the others. They were nested within each other, with one heaven enclosing another, and each heaven had true dragons swimming inside!

Han Yan\'s spiritual sense sat in the sixth heaven, and a bright pearl gradually lit up inside him.

The main achievement of the Yuan Movement realm was to refine the elixir, and the spiritual sense and magical powers reflected by the elixir within the body were more transparent and powerful.

Lu Jiangtian flicked his finger, and Han Yan\'s painstakingly refined elixir shattered!

Han Yan groaned and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

Lu Jiangtian sent his spiritual sense and heaven back to the spiritual realm, helped up his son, and choked, "Han Yan, what you did for the Lu family, the Lu family will not forget! When the ancestors return from the Tong family, they will immediately let you comprehend the complete True Dragon Technique!"

At the same time, other families such as Lin, Zhou, Wen, Tian, Wu, and Tong also had sleepless nights.

Some families chose spiritual practitioners, some like Han Yan abandoned their cultivation to the Spiritual Realm, and some selected dead soldiers to challenge Su Yun first before sending out the strongest Spiritual Realm spiritual practitioners to kill him!

But all the heads of the families had a knot in their hearts, that the seven ancestors were still gathered at the Tong family at this moment.Others didn\'t know what the seven elders were doing in the Tong family, but as the head of the family, they knew the inside story here.

That is, there are sixteen volumes of the True Dragon Technique!

Tong Family Immortal Residence.

The seven elders were either immortal or Daoist, with either elegant looks or handsome appearances. Among them, Zhou Wanhong, the elder of the Zhou family, looked like a beautiful woman in her twenties or thirties, without any signs of aging!

"What\'s most strange about this matter is why the True Dragon Technique has spread!"

Tong Laoxian\'s face was gloomy. He looked around and said in a hoarse voice, "Why are there sixteen volumes of the True Dragon Technique? Where did the problem arise?"

The other elders of the aristocratic families remained silent.

Suddenly, Wen Zheng sneered coldly, "You have no right to speak. Let Tong Qingyun speak!"

Tong Qingyun walked out of the darkness and said lightly, "My disciple\'s problem is also my problem. I want to know why my Tong family only has fourteen volumes of the True Dragon Technique?"

Wu Yuan laughed heartily, "Where did the problem arise? Naturally, it was a problem from back then! When we went to see that person separately, each of us got the True Dragon Technique from him."

He glanced at everyone and sneered, "You all cherished it and hid it to cultivate, fearing that others would see it, but you didn\'t know you were being played!"

The faces of several elders changed.

Tong Qingyun said, "My Tong family got the fourteen volumes of flesh, reason, tendon, blood, heart, viscera, abdomen, scale, pupil, beard, mane, claw, bone, and qi. Which volumes did you get?"

"My Lu family also got these fourteen volumes!"

"My Zhou family got two volumes less of bone and qi!"

"My Lin family got two volumes less of tendon and bone!"

...

Everyone compared notes, with solemn expressions. Even if the True Dragon Technique of the seven great aristocratic families were put together, they were still missing two volumes. What these two volumes were and what they were for, they had no idea.

"But someone knows the True Dragon Sixteen Volumes."

Tong Qingyun\'s eyes flickered and he said, "This Su Shangshi from the Eastern Capital, since he knows the True Dragon Sixteen Volumes, he might know which two volumes we are missing, and he might even deliver them to us."

The several elders each had their own thoughts.

Su Yun returned to his mountain and water residence, enjoying good food, drink, and sleep. Before going to bed, he also tutored three little fox spirits on their lessons for the next day. The next morning, he was pricked by Chi Xiaoyao for a bit of blood after breakfast.

After breakfast, Su Yun sent the three little guys out and watched them go to class. He thought to himself, "Left Supervisor has probably already negotiated the terms with the elder of the Wen family. If I don\'t go to the Su family today, then which aristocratic family should I start challenging from..."

Just then, a big bird carrying a two-story small building arrived. It was Li Zhuxian\'s Phoenix Carriage. On the second floor of the Phoenix Carriage, Li Zhuxian pushed open the window and leaned half of her body out. Two ponytails hung down from her chest, and the girl waved excitedly at him!

Su Yun looked over and saw the girl Wu Tong and the Holy Prince Bai Yuelou in the building as well.

"I told you to go to the Academy of Materialism for class, didn\'t I?"

Su Yun was puzzled and asked, "Why did you come here?"Li Zhuxian exclaimed excitedly, "The Ge Wu Academy is undergoing renovations, so where can we stay? Of course, we\'ll attend classes where our eldest senior brother does. As his junior brothers and sisters, we should attend classes there too!"

Su Yun explained, "I go to major aristocratic families to fight."

"We do too!" Li Zhuxian was even more excited than him.

With a dark expression, Su Yun boarded the Phoenix Carriage, accompanied by a demonic person, a fake gentleman with a smiling face, and a mischievous girl with twin ponytails. He thought to himself, "Except for me, there is no normal person in the Ge Wu Academy, including Ye Luo. Perhaps the purpose of Left Protector is to have me, a normal person, keep them in check?"

The Phoenix Carriage shook as it headed towards the entrance of the academy. When they arrived, they saw Ye Luo\'s Jiao Long Carriage still parked there.

The window of the Jiao Long Carriage creaked open, revealing Ye Luo with disheveled hair, bloodshot eyes, and depleted energy. He said weakly, "Eldest senior brother, I thought about it all night, but I still can\'t figure it out..."

Li Zhuxian was startled. "Ye Luo, you\'re spitting blood!"

"I spat out two mouthfuls..." Ye Luo said weakly.

Note: In "临渊行书页", there are four new characters introduced: the leader Xue Qingfu, the book monster Ying Ying, Ye Luo, and the saint Xue Qingfu.
