Chapter 48: Good news? A happy event turns into a sad one!
Inside the cave, on a jade altar.

An old man with a white beard, the current Holy Lord of Lingxiao Holy Land, Zhou Ping, was sitting cross-legged on top of him.

Suddenly.

He opened his eyes and looked towards the corner of the cave.

Da da da da————

Lu Qingning walked in quickly.

"Master, great news."

"Junior Brother Shen sent a letter saying that he will return to the Holy Land today."

Hearing this, even though Zhou Ping was usually calm and composed, his pupils suddenly trembled.

"what?!"

"Is Tongyuan coming back?"

One thousand eight hundred years ago, this rising star of Lingxiao Holy Land was extremely talented.

However, when he was out for training, he met the witch of that place and fell completely in love with her.

After coming back, he was devastated.

He even hoped that the Holy Land could help him propose marriage.

Zhou Ping naturally rejected this absurd request directly.

Who would have thought that this kid would actually leave the holy land and never come back.

"Yes, and Junior Brother Shen said that he has reached the third level of Martial Sect." Lu Qingning added.

But at this time, Zhou Ping's expression had become serious again.

"Humph."

"This traitor has the guts to never come back again."

"Isn't that a capability?"

The third level of Wuzong, this realm is considered very good in the entire Lingxiao Holy Land.

However, with Shen Tongyuan's amazing qualifications at the time, if he had continued to develop step by step, he would definitely not be limited to this.

Lu Qingning hurriedly grabbed Zhou Ping's arm and shook it.

"Oh, Master."

"Don't say that. It's a good thing that Junior Brother Shen is back."

"After that incident, his swordsmanship was severely damaged and he lost interest in practicing."

"If you are still bound in the holy land, I'm afraid it will be difficult to make any progress in your cultivation."

"Now he has not only broken through to the Martial Sect realm, but has also reached the Third Heaven. This is great."

"Recognizing your mistakes can greatly improve things."

After hearing these words, Zhou Ping finally felt relieved.

His face softened slightly.

Seeing this, Lu Qingning raised the corner of her mouth with a sly arc.

hum.

Master, don’t I know your personality? You have a sharp tongue but a soft heart.

Don’t you often go to the main hall in private and stare at Junior Brother Shen’s life plate in a daze?

"Okay, it's not all bad that this traitor comes back." Zhou Ping said stubbornly.

"The witch incident at the beginning caused our Lingxiao Holy Land to lose all its face. We have been made a laughing stock by all the major forces until now."

"Now that this kid has achieved the status of a martial master and returned to the Holy Land, he has somewhat washed away the shame."

"In that case, let's hold a grand banquet to build momentum and invite heroes from all sides to come here."

"Qing Ning, I'll leave this matter to you."

"Okay, Master." Lu Qingning smiled so much that her eyebrows and eyes curved into a half-moon.

Although he said it reluctantly, what he did was to expose his true feelings completely.

This old man might be happier than her.

Hold a grand welcoming banquet to solemnly welcome back Junior Brother Shen?
Lingxiao Holy Land hasn't been this lively for a long time.

Even if we exclude emotional factors.

The holy land also welcomed back a martial arts master-level fighter.

This is a great joy!

Seven days later.

Main summit guest hall.

Things are in full swing here, such as setting up the reception counter.

Put some decorations and so on.

As the person in charge, Lu Qingning was busy directing the work. "Hey, hey, hey, don't place the flower sculptures over there so symmetrically. It loses its beauty."

"There are too many red ribbons. If others don't know, they might think we are having a wedding banquet."

"Well, that's more like it."

She was really happy that her junior brother was coming back.

boom!
At this moment, a surging green sword intent rushed towards the main peak.

Wait until your breathing becomes calm.

A square-faced man landed on the open space in front of the hall and strode over with a happy look on his face.

"Senior Sister Lu, is Senior Brother Shen really coming back?"

Lu Qingning nodded and said jokingly, "Of course, otherwise do you think I'm just teasing you when I have nothing to do?"

"That guy even took away the treasure that concealed the secrets of heaven."

"Now we can easily calculate that he is in the Southern Region."

"Hehe, even if he doesn't come back, I can still catch him!"

Shen Tongyuan's wine gourd was the treasure he got during his experience outside.

It has the function of concealing the secrets of heaven.

This is also the reason why Lingxiao Holy Land has not been able to detect any trace of him even though he has been in the Southern Region for so long.

Now that Shen Tongyuan has let go of his worries and decided to come back, there is naturally no need to continue maintaining the cover-up effect.

"No way, I just feel like I'm dreaming."

Zhao Zhiping touched his head.

The time when the three of them practiced and played together under the guidance of their master was the most beautiful memory of the past.

One thousand eight hundred years.

Finally, we have a chance to meet again?

Brother, the way you left was really decisive.

But it’s good to be back.

Da da da da————

At this moment, a disciple of the Holy Land with a mustache staggered over anxiously.

He ran and shouted: "Oh no! This is terrible!"

Hearing this, Lu Qingning glared and said unhappily.

"What did you say?!"

"Today is a happy day, don't say such unlucky words."

"Even if the sky falls, it's still a happy event!"

However, immediately afterwards, the disciple with the mustache knelt down directly, his mouth trembling and he couldn't speak clearly for a while.

"In the main hall, in the main hall, Uncle Shen's order card is broken."

what? !

This news was like a bolt from the blue, smashing Lu Qingning and Zhao Zhiping's heads into paste.

The meeting hall of Lingxiao Holy Land.

Except for the strong ones who are too far away from the jurisdiction, most of the high-level officials of the holy land have gathered here.

"Bastard, bastard!"

Zhou Ping's roars and shouts echoed throughout the lobby.

The image of white mist released in the air was the scene where Qin Heng controlled the heaven and earth to violently attack Shen Tongyuan in Dongsheng City.

Under the bite of all things.

The secret sword technique unique to the Lingxiao Holy Land, the Lingxiao giant sword, was torn into pieces.

He really didn't expect it.

It took a full 1,800 years for his disciples to finally bring news.

As a result, just when they were in high spirits and were about to have a big banquet to celebrate, this happened.

Shen Tongyuan died directly in the backward southern region.

Not to mention Zhou Ping's lineage, other lineages in the holy land were also extremely unhappy.

This is worse than what happened 1,800 years ago, when Shen Tongyuan wanted to slap the Holy Land in the face because the witch left without a trace!

The invitations from various forces have been sent out, what should we do?
It's like scoring twice and stomping on the face of the Holy Land.

"Qin Heng of the Demon-Suppressing Sect!" Lu Qingning's eyes flashed with endless anger, and the sword intent in his body could not be controlled and overflowed.

"We must avenge Junior Brother Shen. Kill Qin Heng. Kill him!"

"Completely wipe out the Demon Suppression Sect!"
