Encounter God by chance

After Jiao Junxi of Creation Palace issued the order of self-determination whether to stay or leave, most of the more than 500 people did not want to return to Tianmu Domain. They chose to leave the compound immediately to make a living on their own.

Jiao Junxi took the remaining two hundred or so people without hesitation and took the new route flying ship back to Tianmu Territory. Before leaving, Jiao Junxi asked the monk who stayed behind to bring a farewell jade slip to the fifth elder of the Jiao family.

Jiao Junxi and his party returned to the Creation Palace after more than half a year. They immediately knew that the soul lamp of the Supreme Elder had been extinguished a year ago, and they couldn't help but shed a cold sweat. Fortunately, we didn't have to wait in Pingyan City.

Jiao Xianchu, the master of the Creation Palace, immediately summoned Jiao Junxi and listened to his detailed description of the process of staying in Pingyan City. Regarding the battle, Ziwei Dynasty captain Jiao Maiqi and others have reported in detail. Jiao Xianchu listened to Jiao Junxi's introduction again, which was consistent with what Jiao Maiqi and others said.

In the early stages of Jiao Xianchu's return to the void, what he wanted to know most was the agreement between Taishang Elder and the Pingyan Jiao family, the cause of Taishang Elder's death, and the Pingyan Jiao family's current attitude towards the Tianmu Domain Creation Palace.

Jiao Junxi didn't know these three points, didn't dare to speculate, and couldn't give an answer.

Jiao Xianchu encouraged Jiao Junxi to speak out his ideas boldly and cursed those who spoke not guilty.

Jiao Junxi then cautiously replied: "Palace Master, the last time I saw the Supreme Elder, he told me two things: first, he went out to pick red lotus roots with the seventh elder of the Jiao family in Pingyan; second, he went out to pick red lotus roots; If an accident occurs, please let me not reveal my dissatisfaction with the Jiao family and take the Tianmuyu team back to Tianmuyu immediately."

Jiao Xianchu nodded and thought for a long time. Then he asked: "There are more than 500 team members in Liupingyan City, why are only 200 people coming back?"

Jiao Junxi didn't dare to say that he let them go. He replied: "I considered that there was no point in staying in Pingyan City for a long time, so I discussed with a few junior brothers about returning to Tianmu Domain. As a result..."

"How? Just tell me. I won't blame them." Jiao Xianchu said.

"In the end, most of them said they would not leave. It would be best to return to their roots after fallen leaves and recognize their ancestors. If the Jiao family in Pingyan does not take them in, they will have to make a living on their own," Jiao Junxi said.

Jiao Xianchu nodded and said nothing.

Finally, he looked sternly, stared at Jiao Junxi and asked: "Junxi, the last question is also the most important question: Did the Supreme Elder die at the hands of his own family?" He raised his right hand and said: "I swear with my Taoist heart, I will never reveal it, and it will never be used against you in the future.”

Seeing that the palace master had done this, Jiao Junxi said: "Listening to the meaning of the last words of the Supreme Elder, he and his family reached a gentleman's agreement to jointly practice the highest skills. The key issue to be solved to realize the agreement is related to Red Lotus Root. Both parties Let’s go pick red lotus roots together. The Supreme Elder has not come back.”

Jiao Xianchu nodded. Jiao Junxi's suspicion was clear: the master might have killed people to silence him because he wanted to have the red lotus root for himself, that is, he was practicing the highest skill alone.

Jiao Xianchu said to Jiao Junxi: "Fifth Elder, you have worked hard on this trip! The final decision to bring back more than 200 soldiers is completely correct. If anyone in the Elders Council raises objections, I will stand on your side. You can rest for a while and deal with it. It’s a private matter at hand, and then I’ll take care of the things I was originally in charge of. In addition, I have an important task to entrust to you, and we’ll discuss it in detail then.”

Jiao Junxi stood up and saluted, saying: "Thank you very much, Palace Master, for trusting me. I will definitely do my best to do what the Palace Master orders me to do!"

Jiao Xianchu stood up and nodded, watching him leave.

Soon, a figure walked in, and the harmony was complete. He saluted Jiao Xianchu and said, "Palace Master, you asked me to come, is it about the fifth elder?"

Jiao Xianchu motioned for the other party to sit down and said: "The fifth elder has always been close to the first elder. Whether what he said is completely credible needs to be analyzed. Second elder, please tell me your opinion after listening to it."

The visitor is Jiao Bentong, the second elder of the Creation Palace. The two of them began to think about the information that Jiao Junxi brought back one by one...

Jiao Junxi went directly to the great elder Jiao Huilan. Currently, there are only two Void Return cultivators in the Creation Palace, namely Palace Master Jiao Xianchu and Great Elder Jiao Huilan, both of whom are in the early stage of Void Return.

Jiao Huilan is the daughter of the former palace master, the recently deceased Supreme Elder.

Jiao Huilan already knew that Jiao Junxi had only brought back about 200 people, less than half of the total number left after the war. The first thing she said when she saw Jiao Junxi was: "More than 300 people don't want to come back. What does the palace master say?"

Jiao Junxi said: "Back to the great elder, the palace master said that if anyone accuses me, he will speak for me."

Jiao Huilan nodded and said: "I have said it many times, you and I are both elders, there is no need to reply or report. Well...even if he speaks for you, you should be careful." After a moment of silence, she continued: " By whose hands my father died, do you have any useful information?"

Jiao Junxi shook his head and said: "Elder Taishang went to pick red lotus roots with the seventh elder of the Jiao family in Pingyan and never came back. I heard that the master's family has lost the sky-peeping realm and has fallen to the second-rate family. It should be related to the martial arts. It is related to the loss of the cultivation method. The Supreme Elder should have straightened out the path of cultivation together with the master family. It is possible that a prerequisite must be solved, which is to obtain something like red lotus root. This is my inference. "

"Is it possible that it was shot from there?"

"It's impossible! We don't have Kung Fu, and they lack key cultivation methods. By restarting the shipping route, we can jointly build a first-class Jiao family in two domains, and we can echo each other. What a rare opportunity! They won't do this kind of thing that breaks their own wings. There must be something else. Hidden story." Jiao Junxi said.

Jiao Huilan asked: "Did you also say the same to the palace master?"

Jiao Junxi shook his head: "I have no opinion."

Jiao Huilan smiled and said: "When people die, they die. Who doesn't die? It's not a big deal. Don't worry. You should take care of your housework first and take a good rest. It's good to be back this time. Cherish it!"

Jiao Junxi nodded, saluted, came out, and went home.

Jiao Huilan took out a jade slip, looked at it again, and then crushed it.

This was sent back by her father through other channels. What Jiao Junxi said was basically consistent with what Dad Yu Jian expressed. There are slight discrepancies because Jiao Junxi's knowledge is limited.

Jiao Junxi is still Jiao Junxi. Believable!

The fifth elder Jiao Yan and the seventh elder Jiao Zhuangbei of the Jiao family in Pingyan City were very depressed.

Jiao Zhuangbei had previously received a report from his subordinates, saying that Na Xiao, the daughter of Fengling City's Great Alchemy Emperor, was collecting information about the Jiao family in the city and attached a photographic stone. After Jiao Zhuang double-investigated, he was shocked: the flute turned out to be the woman among the two people he was chasing.

The disappearance of Jiao Yubai from Creation Palace should be related to them! Thinking of this, he sent a large team of people to trace the whereabouts of the flute, and on the other hand came to discuss with Fifth Elder Jiao Yan. The two have always been on good terms.

After Jiao Yan heard this, he felt that he could not let go of the two Xiaos no matter what, he must get the red lotus root!

When Jiao Zhuangbei's men reported that Xiao and the two were living at the top of Baiyun Mountain, they looked at each other: Are they living there because of Jiao Yubai and monitoring everyone in the Creation Palace? Do they have powerful protectors?

Even if it is a dragon's pond and a tiger's den, the two of them decided to try it out.

In the end, the result of breaking into the top of Baiyun Mountain really scared the two of them! That is a Tianzun level seal! At least it is the work of returning to perfection.

The two returned to the family, nodding silently and parting. They all feel that they can only take one step at a time.

At this moment, Jiao Yan received the farewell slip left by Jiao Junxi.

After reading it, he fell into deep thought.

It seems that because of Jiao Yubai's death, the people in Creation Palace misunderstood the Jiao family in Pingyan. Fortunately, Jiao Junxi was not the final say in the matter.

Find an opportunity to talk to the clan leader about this matter, and explain it clearly to the master of the Creation Palace in the future to avoid any suspicion.

The head family of the Jiao family is now only a second-rate family in Pingyan City, while the branch families occupy the entire domain. Although it is a small domain, everyone understands the relationship between chicken head and phoenix tail.

They were negligent when they were here a while ago! For the branch of the Jiao family that is the Tu Emperor, the Jiao family of Pingyan City should give enough respect in the future.

At this time, someone outside the door reported that more than 300 people from the Jiao family branch in Tianmu Region were staying in Pingyan City, and there were many people who wanted to recognize their ancestors and return to their clan.

Jiao Yan was overjoyed. If you really feel sleepy, just use the pillow. He immediately went to meet the two leading Hedao clan members, and said readily: Anyone from the Fanjiao clan who is willing to return to his family will be treated equally with his children. He asked two Hedao tribesmen to find the part that had left.

After stabilizing everyone in the Creation Palace, Jiao Yan immediately came to the clan leader Jiao Junan, reported the situation in the Creation Palace, and expressed his thoughts and handling methods.

Jiao Junan nodded and said, just follow your wishes, get the person back first, and then settle down.

Jiao Yan breathed a sigh of relief. Before, he was afraid of being rebutted by the clan leader. At this moment, he was approved by the clan leader and he immediately went to make arrangements.

Jiao Junan's idea is that under the current situation, the Jiao family in Pingyan is too weak, so it is best to form a horn with the Tianmu Domain Creation Palace and rely on each other. Then these people who intend to leave the Palace of Creation must not be allowed to scatter into the rivers and lakes. In the future, this will be a bargaining chip for negotiating with the Palace of Creation.

Let's settle down according to the fifth elder's wishes first, and then discuss with the Creation Palace how to deal with it in the future.

The meaning of the head of the Jiao family in Pingyan City is obviously quite different from the original intention of the fifth elder. But it doesn't affect the current arrangements.
