Qi Jian is the same as this golden lacquer plaque hanging high on the front beam of Zi Qi Donglai Hall, each character is equivalent to the height of the person's body and waist, which is far larger than the plaque that Chu Jiangnan spoofed by Zhujiangnan.

The headquarters of the scholarly family is Zhenyue Palace located under the east slope of the west peak outside Suzhou Prefecture. Before this palace, there is a jade well with green water. Since the Tang Dynasty, there have been various magical legends and a Yujing Tower has been built. It is a famous scenic spot for tourists and practitioners.

Later, the scholarly family chose this blessed land and built a building behind the building as a private place, and it was prohibited from being idle outsiders.

The scholarly families not only practice the Taoist technique of Quanzhen inner alchemy, but also practice martial arts and sword techniques, and also study and participate in the imperial examination.

Among the eight-sect alliances, the Xining school has the closest connection with the court. This close relationship mainly refers to the military, and in terms of temple power, it is a scholarly family with several great scholars. Otherwise, if it is really calculated, the scholarly family with average strength but absolutely not outstanding is not ranked among the eight-sect alliances. The reason why the rise in recent years is that the great scholars of the court secretly helped.

The most majestic building in Zhenyue Palace is naturally the main hall on the front. The statue of Confucius is enshrined in the Confucius Temple. It is extraordinary and comparable to the Zhenxian Temple of the Wudang Sect’s Escape from Zhenxian Palace.

However, the main hall of martial arts of the Books and Fragrant Family is located in the east of the palace. The Ziqi Donglai Hall is the important place for the leadership of the Books and Fragrant Family's sword sect to be in charge of affairs, and is also the temple where the most elite disciples of the Books and Fragrant Family practice swordsmanship.

Ziqi Donglai Hall One of the walls is hung with many wooden famous brands, which are the names of the leaders of the sect and senior disciples.

The scholarly family has a prosperous talent. There are 44 people who have entered the house and become personal disciples of this generation.

Among the forty-four famous brands, the top ten are ranked, which is particularly obvious from the thirty-four below.

These ten disciples with the highest seniority and cultivation are collectively known as Shi Weiyi. They are qualified to serve as teachers and are the successors of the future scholarly family.

At this moment, in Ziqi Donglai Hall, Yang Tailan, one of the ten dignitaries, was walking back and forth uneasy on the stone floor covered with gossip patterns.

Like all the disciples of the scholarly family, Yang Tailan has already worn a sword around her waist.

The three people who escaped from the Jianxing Pavilion had already rushed back to Zhenyue Palace to report the news.

At this moment, from outside the main entrance of Ziqi Donglai Hall, it extends to the gate of Zhenyue Palace. Every less than ten steps, disciples of the scholarly family with swords were guarding.

The solemn atmosphere is unprecedented in the scholarly family in three hundred years.

Yang Tailan, wearing a Taoist robe, is under forty years old, has a long and quick steps.

In terms of martial arts, he is definitely within the top five contemporary disciples, but he is often defeated by his impetuous temperament.

Don't walk around!

Zhang Tailang, who is also one of the ten dignitaries, frowned and said.

He just sat in the chair and placed his sword horizontally on his knees without looking too worried.

On his left, Sima Taiyuan, the chief of the Ten Majesty and the current scholarly disciple of the scholarly family, closed his eyes on the seat, and made seals with his hands in his dantian, as if he was entering a state of meditation.

What has been uploaded recently by Jianghu seems to be true...

Yang Tailan did not pace anymore, but still pinched his knuckles with his hands.

But……

Song Taiyou, one of the younger ten dignitaries on the other side, said: We have no grievances and no grudges with the Dongming faction...

Song Taiyou's words caused the disciples in the hall to whisper.

The eldest brother Sima Taiyuan did not open his eyes, but said: What happened is going on, and it will be decided in a short while.What are you anxious about?

His voice was not particularly loud, but it calmed down all the junior brothers.

Sima Taiyuan's steady face and low and majestic voice were faintly exuding the style of a leader. If it weren't for the direct lineage of the scholarly family, how could the position of the next generation of heads of the family would be snatched away by Xiang Qingqiu?

Our scholarly family has been through hundreds of years of history and has experienced so many ups and downs...

Sima Taiyuan said again: There is no enemy that cannot be dealt with.But don't be confused.The heart is the rudder of the qi, and the qi is the reins of the sword.If your heart is confused, your sword will be messed up.

This book is the most basic of the kendo of the book-flavored family.

After hearing this, all the junior brothers felt a little ashamed.

At this time, several people entered the lobby from the back room.

Sima Taiyuan and other disciples stood up immediately and saluted solemnly.

Those who came in were naturally the people who ranked higher than the famous brands on the wall.

The first appearance is the four uncles of the Zong generation: Huang Zongxuan, Zhao Zongchen, Cheng Zongzhi and Cheng Zongxin, who are the four masters of scholars today. The name of the four masters of scholars is second only to the head of the family. It was originally a Taoist name, but in the scholars of scholars, it is equivalent to the status of the masters of other sects.

Next are the two elders of the Xiang generation, Jin Xiangren and Li Xiangsheng, who are the only remaining scholarly families. They are both in their seventies and their sword skills are far inferior to their previous skills. However, in terms of age, they are the Grand Master of the contemporary disciples, so they are naturally highly respected.

The two of them were holding long swords in their hands, just like their disciples below.

Since foreign enemies are attacking, they still have to join the confrontation. One day, they are scholarly families and people, and they will still be the same as the moment they die.

The last one to enter the lobby was naturally Xiang Zongwu, the current deputy head of the Scholar Family, who was the younger brother of Xiang Cangsong, the head of the Scholar Family.

Xiang Zongwu's dignified body was wearing a dark purple robes and Taoist robe, a square scarf, and five long beards, which were very elegant and extraordinary.

However, there was a crossed blade scar on the bridge of his nose, which was more powerful than an ordinary Taoist priest who practiced alchemy. Of course, just by looking at his appearance, you can tell that Xiang Zongwu had no chance of being in the imperial examination court.

Xiang Zong's name of enlightenment, Ying Wuzi, nickname of the martial arts world, Jiuxi Divine Sword, there was still a young man beside him, holding Xiang Zongwu's special sword and Yuke Sword in both hands and following closely.

The silver-carved handguard and handle of the long sword are in the shape of a crane, and the wood on the handle is dark and black, which is an extraordinary thing of age.

Xiang Zongwu walked to the main seat of Ziqi Donglai Hall and waited for the two uncles to take their seats before he sat down.

His four junior brothers also sat down one by one, while the ten dignitaries and other personal disciples in the hall were still standing.

Xiang Zongwu looked impatient and urged his disciples to report quickly.

Report to all the teachers.

Zhang Tailang bowed and said: The disciple has repeatedly asked about the junior brother who has received the reward... there is indeed only one person on the other side.

Who is it?

Huang Zongxuan, the uncle next to him, asked anxiously.

This...is not sure.The other party did not report the name.

one person?

Xiang Zongwu said a little angrily: Just for one person, let the disciples of the Shuxiang family be so unprecedented?

But……

Yang Tailan stepped forward and said: He defeated his personal disciple Chen Taikui Ah with one move!

Xiang Zongwu then made an expression of Ah. His junior brother Zhao Zongchen sighed and shook his head slightly from the side, thinking: This senior brother is really good at martial arts, but he is not good at practicing Taoism and cultivating nature. He does not matter how important things are. When the head of the family is in seclusion, he may have chosen the wrong one...

So what about people?

He asked Zong Wu majesticly.

It seems to be coming...

Zhang Tailang reported.

At this moment, a person rushed in from the open door of Ziqi Donglai Hall.

It was Luo Taiqi, who was in charge of the supervision of the museum at the foot of the mountain. His burly body was soaked in sweat and he stumbled in.

Everyone in the hall stared at him, but Luo Taiqi was panting and couldn't speak for a moment.

Needless to say.

The people he brought up the mountain appeared immediately.

The figure in the white robe walked slowly to the center of the Bagua diagram on the ground step by step, and there was still a long black knife with the skull-shaped handguard behind it.

For more than three hundred years, he is the first person to lead troops up the mountain without approval.

Behind him, the fourteen or five young men including Wang Shixin were all frightened, and they looked around and panickedly at the masters of the scholarly families wearing real swords in the lobby.

Even if they didn't have much martial arts, they could clearly feel the murderous aura in the hall.

These young people who originally wanted to worship under the wall of the scholarly family. The dream of many years was to be able to set foot in this Purple Qi Donglai Hall, but now it has suddenly come true, but I didn't expect it to be in this way.

Several disciples of the scholarly families who were originally guarding the Ziqi Donglai Hall also entered and were on guard behind these visitors.

Outside the main gate, there were more than a hundred disciples guarding Zhenyue Palace.

They all nervously held the hilt of their waists, waiting for a command.

Chu Jiangnan was surrounded by the killing formation surrounded by powerful enemies, but his face was calm, as if he was just a tourist coming into the Taoist Palace to watch.

He looked up at the plaque with Qi Jian Yiru, and then looked directly at Xiang Zongwu on the front seat.

The head of the Dongming Sect, Chu Jiangnan, came to the scholarly family today to discuss martial arts with you.

He said that he did not bow his hands, and did not even bow his head slightly, his face calmly, as if he was just a relaxed and ordinary conversation.

But everyone present was guessing what this sentence about martial arts enlightenment means.

The swordsmen of the scholarly family looked at Chu Jiangnan and looked at the young men behind him.

There was indeed no one carrying weapons, and they didn't judge them as if they were disciples of the Dongming Sect when looking at their clothes and expressions. They really didn't understand what they were doing with them.

The swordsmen ignored it and looked at Chu Jiangnan alone.

There are people from outside who dare to come to the headquarters of the Shuxiang Family alone to challenge it, and it is really something that the Shuxiang Family members have never imagined in their lives.

And this person is the absolute number one person in the Dongming Sect, which has been famous and prosperous in martial arts in recent years.

The disciples of the scholarly family looked at Chu Jiangnan with a little illusory feeling.

Only Xiang Zongwu was not shaken by the five words "The head of the Dongming Sect", but just sneered.

Controversy of swords?Hehe, I came to my aristocratic family and hurt my disciples, but I didn’t even send a letter of challenge.The head of the Dongming Sect doesn't even know the simplest martial arts rules, just like a wild dog who likes to bite people around, it's really a joke.

Chu Jiangnan had explained to Luo Taiqi at the Jianxing Pavilion that he was too lazy to repeat it again now.

Boring rules will not make people stronger, and there is no need.

Chu Jiangnan said lightly.

Huang Zongxuan frowned: The scholarly family and the Dongming Sect are all famous sects after all. How can the decision-making figures of the two sects have such dialogue?

Xiang Zongwu's words did not have the demeanor of being a master.

He then spoke on behalf of the deputy leader and senior brother: Master Chu, everyone is a fellow martial arts world, why bother to hurt this kind of harmony?Is there any misunderstanding that Master Chu hurts my disciples?If you can explain it clearly, you can avoid unnecessary disputes between the two factions.

Huang Zongxuan's words were clearly intended to give Chu Jiangnan a step.
