Chapter 142 – Send a Clock



Chapter 142 – Send a Clock

On the dragon carriage, Ye Luo sat upright with a solemn expression. Su Yun sat across from him, carefully observing Ye Luo\'s withered aura. If he didn\'t answer the three questions, he might really spit blood and die.

"Do you have money?" Su Yun asked after some thought.

Ye Luo was already accustomed to Qiu Shuijing\'s style and skillfully took out his purse, asking, "How much for these three questions?"

Su Yun didn\'t want to be too greedy like Shuijing, so he said, "Junior Brother is a business genius, you decide how much it\'s worth and pay that amount."

Ye Luo was shocked and said, "Big Brother, you\'re too greedy! Shuijing answered questions at a reasonable price, but you\'re asking for a lion\'s share."

Su Yun realized he was being unreasonable and remembered that Shuijing\'s answers couldn\'t be measured in money. Similarly, his answer to Ye Luo\'s question couldn\'t be measured in money either, or else the Ye family would go bankrupt.

"Just give me a Qinghong coin," Su Yun said with a smile.

Ye Luo breathed a sigh of relief and handed over a Qinghong coin.

"These three questions, the first one about the God King and Demon King in the barren area, can be answered by Saint Xue. He has solved it once before, so he can solve it again," Su Yun said.

Ye Luo pondered and asked, "I can\'t think of how Saint Xue can prevent the God King and Demon King from attacking."

"You don\'t need to think about it, let Saint Xue think about it," Su Yun said, confused. "If Saint Xue can solve it, why bother thinking about it? The other question is about the leader, Xue Ge. The demons are more concerned about Xue Ge than we are."

Ye Luo looked at the scene of Wu Tong and the others chatting with the demon Wu Tong, feeling uneasy.

"If Xue Ge appears, the demons will be more concerned than anyone else," Su Yun said. "But Wu Tong is still calm, which means she has the ability to deal with Xue Ge. Junior Brother, leave it to someone who can solve the problem. It\'s not necessary to worry too much."

Ye Luo then asked about the third question, about the Dust Monster. Su Yun smiled and looked out the window, saying, "Who built Shuofang City?"

"Shuofang City has existed for thousands of years as a fortress against foreign invasion. Later, Lou Ban Lou Tian Shi perfected his martial arts and led his disciples to build a new city here..." Ye Luo answered.When Young Master Ye Luo mentioned it, Su Yun felt a thunderous roar in his mind and exclaimed, "I know! You mean the mysterious legacy left by Lou Ban, the Tongtian Pavilion! Of course! How could I forget about them?"

He stood up and walked around excitedly, saying repeatedly, "Yes, I should have thought of it! Shuofang City was the first city built by Lou Ban, and the disciples who followed him to build Shuofang City were all grandmasters in architecture! It is said that they founded the Tongtian Pavilion because they were dissatisfied with Lou Ban not being canonized."

Su Yun was stunned. He thought of using the great saint spirit weapon left by Lou Ban to control the giant spirit weapon of Shuofang City to fight against the Grey Robber. Young Master Ye Luo, on the other hand, had a completely different idea!

"The Tongtian Pavilion is extremely secretive!"

Young Master Ye Luo was inexplicably excited and said, "The people inside are elusive. It is said that those who join the Tongtian Pavilion have extremely high intelligence, and there are even scholars from the Heavenly Academy among them! There are also rumors that they have no doctrine, only an idea, which is to use their own intelligence to build a bridge to the sky, to the legendary immortal realm, hence the name Tongtian Pavilion!"

He slapped heavily and said, "The totem of the Tongtian Pavilion is a wooden box pattern. The masters of the Tongtian Pavilion will certainly not sit idly by when the Grey Robber erupts, because the purpose of Lou Ban building Shuofang City was to suppress the underground Grey Robber City!"

Su Yun\'s expression did not change, but he was extremely shocked in his heart. "The Tongtian Pavilion? A group of grandmasters who are passionate about architecture? Will they really appear when the Grey Robber erupts?"

He didn\'t know how reliable Young Master Ye Luo\'s information was, but since he had taken over the wooden box entrusted to him by Lou Ban, he had to fulfill Lou Ban\'s last wish!

"Their totem is the wooden box pattern. Is it the wooden box in my hand?"

Su Yun put his hands in his sleeves and touched the wooden box in his pocket, feeling a little puzzled.

"Lou Ban\'s friend told me personally that his disciple buried the wooden box with him. Since the masters of the Tongtian Pavilion take the wooden box as their totem, why did they bury the wooden box?"

He was quite puzzled and silently thought to himself, "They should know that the wooden box is the key to opening the Dusty Sky, which controls Shuofang City. Why would they send such a treasure into the tomb? It caused Lou Ban\'s friend to sell his wares for decades without being able to sell it..."

Young Master Ye Luo laughed heartily, "I can rest easy now!"

As Su Yun was about to get off the carriage, a white crane suddenly flew down from the sky and turned into a Taoist with wide sleeves, fluttering in the wind, standing in the air and traveling alongside the dragon carriage.

"Idle Cloud Taoist." Su Yun saluted from the carriage.

Idle Cloud Taoist shook his dusting cloth, his feet not touching the ground, and saluted in the air, handing over a piece of paper, saying, "Scholar, this is the challenge order list of the seven major families prepared by the Grand Marshal. Please take a look."

Su Yun took it and saw that the first one on the list was the Lu family, followed by the Tong family, and then the Lin family, Wu family, Wen family, Zhou family, and Tian family.Su Yun was surprised and asked, "Why isn\'t the Wen family ranked last?"

Idle Cloud Taoist said, "I knew you would ask this question, so I\'ll tell you. Zhou and Tian families gave too much. Although the Wen family also gave a considerable amount, it\'s not as much as the Zhou and Tian families, so they can only be ranked fifth. The rankings of the other families like Tong, Lin, and Wu are based on the amount of money they gave."

Su Yun asked, "What about the Lu family?"

Idle Cloud Taoist said, "The Lu family didn\'t give any money."

Su Yun nodded and said, "Then I\'ll go to the Lu family today."

Idle Cloud Taoist said, "The Piao Ba Zi has already gone ahead to cheer for the scholars at the Lu family."

At this moment, outside the Lu family\'s Immortal Residence, Zuo Songyan, a former classmate of Qiu Shuijing, wore a gray Daoist robe and cloth shoes, standing with his hands behind his back and looking energetic. The Piao Ba Zi from the 108 counties of the 17 provinces stood silently behind him, motionless and silent.

The imposing aura made the Lu family shudder.

After a moment, Lu Zhongliu and Lu Jiangtian laughed heartily and led the crowd to greet them. Zuo Songyan said with a smile, "Today, Su Yun from the Wen Chang Academy has come to challenge the Lu family, so I came to watch the battle. I hope Senior Lu Zhongliu won\'t mind."

Lu Zhongliu laughed and said, "If it weren\'t for Nephew Zuo\'s explanation, I would have thought you were here to crush my Lu family. Please, Nephew Zuo."

Other aristocratic families also received the news and came with their disciples, claiming to be there to watch the battle, but in reality, they were there to look for flaws in Su Yun\'s abilities.

Zuo Songyan looked around and saw that the scholars from these six aristocratic families were all talented and outstanding, standing in the Immortal Residence like dragons and phoenixes among men.

Their reputation among the younger generation in Shuo Fang City was extremely high, and their strength was not to be underestimated. Zuo Songyan even saw Tong Qiuyu, a descendant of the Tong family who had been admitted to the Imperial College.

"Now that the Imperial College in the capital has opened, and Tong Qiuyu hasn\'t gone to school, it shows that the Tong family\'s opposition is indeed very strong. The Tong family will rebel this year!" Zuo Songyan silently thought to himself.

Observing the falling leaves can predict autumn. The fact that Tong Qiuyu didn\'t go to the Imperial College to study showed a lot.

While Zuo Songyan was sitting in the Lu family\'s Immortal Residence, Xue Qingfu in the Saint\'s Residence quietly set off for the Old No-Man\'s Land in the Heavenly Market Constellation.

At the same time, the messenger spirit masters of the city defense army, with the letter from the Shuo Fang Marquis, formed teams of ten people and scattered after leaving the city. Some went to the post stations and roads, some rode the Candle Dragon Sedan, and some went directly into the wilderness to rush to nearby provinces and counties.

After this team of messenger spirit masters left the city, another team of ten messenger spirit masters came out of the city to deliver letters, one wave after another.

At the same time, the spirit masters of the seven aristocratic families, led by their core disciples, also rushed out of the city at high speed, some going to the post stations to buy tickets and board the Candle Dragon Sedan, some walking along the roads, and some rushing into the wilderness.

In the city, Su Yun challenged the seven aristocratic families, causing a storm in the city, but the battles outside the city, although silent, were even more shocking.

In the wilderness, on the roads, and on the Candle Dragon Sedan, one battle after another began!

In the disorderly area of the Heavenly Market Constellation, in the Lou Tian Shi Temple, more than ten strange people of all ages came to burn incense, and one of them drew a wooden box pattern on the ground in front of the statue of Lou Tian Shi.

"Teacher, you sent us a dream to summon us here."These strange people bowed to the statue of Lou Tianshi and the leader whispered, "Master, we have arrived. Please show your divinity!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the statue of Lou Tianshi suddenly came to life, shining with golden light, obviously having forged a golden body after death. He laughed and said, "I have found the heir of the Dusty Sky. And you..."

The strange people all looked up with a mixture of shock and joy, unable to believe their eyes.

"And you have also found the next leader of the Tongtian Pavilion!" Lou Tianshi laughed heartily.

Suddenly, a white crane flew towards the residence of the immortal family in Shuofang City, carrying a large yellow bell in its mouth. It landed and transformed into Idle Cloud Taoist, who called out, "Who is the challenger of the Lu Family? Su scholar has sent me to deliver the bell!"

The Lu family was outraged and shouted in unison.

Lu Hanyan stood up and said in a deep voice, "I am..."

At this moment, Su Yun walked out of the immortal residence and raised his right hand. The yellow bell suddenly rotated, with the bell mouth facing Lu Hanyan.

"Bang!"

The violent sound of the bell shattered everything in the immortal residence, and the impact crushed Lu Hanyan.

Su Yun stepped forward, and the twelve divine demons appeared behind him. The furnace and the spiritual realm furnace within his body, as well as the spiritual realm cave, were all activated. He once again urged the yellow bell.

"Bang!"

The yellow bell adjusted its size, and Ying Ying calculated quickly in the spiritual realm, saying, "Make it a bit smaller!"

"Bang!"

Lu Hanyan crashed into the screen window of the immortal residence, and the glass shattered. Another bell rang out, and Lu Hanyan was blasted out of the immortal residence!

Su Yun caught up with the yellow bell, pressed his palm on it, and its power reached its peak, hitting Lu Hanyan in mid-air!

A blood flower exploded in the sky.

Lu Hanyan, with all his divine abilities and skills, did not have time to react and was instantly crushed to pieces!

.

Ying Ying said, "The power of the yellow bell has basically reached its perfect state."

Su Yun turned around, and the yellow bell whistled as it slowly flew into the immortal residence from the broken screen window and landed on top of his head.

Su Yun bowed to Lu Zhongliu and Lu Jiangtian and said, "I apologize for offending you."

Li Zhuxian, the young woman Wu Tong, the holy young master Bai Yuelou, and Ye Luo had just rushed in and saw only the shattered screen window.

"Let\'s go to the next place." Su Yun walked out and said lightly.
