After the Longevity Festival, the people of Xuanming Sect had already packed their luggage. On the second day, Feng Nongying entered the palace to resign in person. The emperor naturally tried to persuade him to stay, but Feng Nongying's intention to go was already made, and even the reasons were ready-made. It is impolite for the princes not to spend the first New Year in their fiefs after they are granted the feudal title. Now that it is the end of the year, if they don’t leave, they may not be in time to go to Mosang City to celebrate the New Year.

The emperor had no choice but to let it go. Feng Nongying got His Majesty's oral order to allow him to leave Beijing, and he was relieved. After leaving the palace, he returned to Princess Zhaoyang's mansion and ordered people to prepare for departure.

The mansion had already packed its bags, and Feng Nongying could set off as soon as he gave an order. It took less than two hours to leave the palace and board the big ship.

When Le Yongning, Feng Nongying and his party headed to Mosang City, the world was already turned upside down.

Everyone knows that the women of Xuanming Sect captured by Qingfeng Sect Ma Changfeng found the treasure map of Xuanming Sect from them. The reason for the rescue was the jade wall with the treasure map engraved on it. Unfortunately, after being rescued, the jade wall disappeared... Needless to say, everyone thinks that Ma Changfeng must have obtained the treasure map , it’s no wonder that Ma Changfeng held on to the Xuanming Sect at the martial arts conference that day...

Ma Changfeng wanted to deny it, but by chance, he did get two incomplete pieces of jade in the treasure map.The treasure of Xuanming Sect has been Ma Changfeng's heart disease for these years, and now the treasure that he thinks about day and night seems to be at his fingertips, so it is impossible for him not to look for the remaining jade.But now the whole Jianghu is staring at the Qingfeng faction to verify the truth of the rumors, but the Qingfeng faction is really secretly looking for the incomplete jade, and the news that Ma Changfeng has obtained the treasure of the Xuanming Sect is full of excitement...

Just like 18 years ago, no one wants to get involved in the prosperity and wealth. These days, the Qingfeng Sect is full of people. Those who are familiar with each other, those who know each other, come to visit the Qingfeng Sect one after another, and after coming He can always find an excuse to stay and not leave, and it even depends on the meaning of celebrating the New Year at Qingfeng School. Ma Changfeng couldn't help sneering, even he didn't know when he had so many friends.

Ma Changfeng repeatedly explained that this rumor must be spread by the remnants of Xuanming Sect, in order to provoke his relationship with other martial arts fellows.

This sentence is a mistake to say the purpose of Feng Nongying, but unfortunately no one believes his words, or some people find it wrong, but just like 18 years ago, the wealth of the Xuanming Sect is enough. It makes people dizzy.

And when everyone's eyes were on the Qingfeng School, rumors spread again in the Jianghu that the Qingfeng School's jade wall engraved with a treasure map was incomplete, and one of them was in the hands of the Huashan School.

And Qiu Hongyi, head of the Huashan School, did get a piece of jade wall...

As the New Year approached, he took his son to tidy up his warehouse on a whim, and suddenly found an empty mahogany box in an inconspicuous corner of his treasure house, on which was carved a mark of a hexagonal diamond-shaped petal pattern. He suddenly felt that this mark Seeing something familiar, he casually opened the box to check it out. Unexpectedly, there was a piece of incomplete jade wall in the empty box. Combined with the rumors in Jianghu, he immediately knew what it was, and smiled wryly. He muttered in his mouth: "Xuan... Xuan Mingjiao..."

Qiu Mingjie, the son of the head of the Huashan School, was also shocked when he heard the words. He saw that the box was covered with a thick layer of dust, and it seemed that it had been a long time. He couldn't help asking: "When did this box appear here, father?" Why have they never noticed?

The Xuanming Sect was at its peak only because Qiu Mingjie was still young. By the time he became governor, the Xuanming Sect had already disappeared from the rivers and lakes. Over the years, although his father was weak, the Wulin was stable, and no one dared to bully them in Huashan. Qiu Mingjie did not want to change the status quo. What's more, it's not that he doesn't have ambitions, it's just that his current age and skill are still unable to support Huashan's achievements in the martial arts. Even if he wants to change the status of Huashan faction in the world, it can't be now...

So even though he knew what his father was holding, he didn't have the slightest covetous heart for the wealth of the Xuanming Sect. Now that everyone is staring at the treasure map, he didn't want to involve the Huashan faction in this turmoil, and he Even more puzzled, how could this piece of jade wall that everyone in the world wanted appear in their Huashan School?

Qiu Hongyi held the box in his hand and trembling his lips, he was a little embarrassed to say it. As a father, he naturally hoped that he would always be glorious in his son's heart.

He hoped that this matter would disappear from everyone's memory, be buried in the dust forever and ever, and be brought into the grave after his death, so that no one would know about it.

His son is upright, intelligent, and his muscles and bones must be in good shape. He hopes that his son will not be contaminated with a trace of darkness.

But now... Looking at the wooden box in his hand and the jade wall in the wooden box, he couldn't allow him to hide any more. He shook his voice and said sadly: "This wooden box was bought by Feng Wuya, the former leader of Xuanming sect. gift."

"Xuanmingjiao?" Qiu Mingjie was even more puzzled, how could his family have something from Xuanmingjiao.After the turmoil at the martial arts conference, everyone in the martial arts world knew that there was a Xuanming sect in the world, but that beautiful leader turned against the entire Jianghu, which is a pity...

Facing his son's gaze, Qiu Hongyi could only give a wry smile and continued: "In the year of severe drought 20 years ago, the land was dry and there was no harvest. At that time, Huashan was not as good as it is now. All income came from renting with the people at the foot of the mountain. In a year of drought, tenants who fail to pay the rent cannot kill people... But there are so many disciples under the sect, and the money in the account is getting less and less day by day. The disciples under the sect have changed from three meals a day to two meals a day, from rice to rice. It became the soup and porridge that people can barely wrap their stomachs in. In desperation, I had no choice but to go to the world's largest sect at that time—Xuanming Sect for help, and the Feng Sect Master generously gave me a box of gold... "

Back then, all the disciples under his sect were too hungry to stand still. As the head of the Huashan School, even though he was not as heroic and decisive as his father, he would not shirk his responsibilities. The many disciples under this sect were his responsibility.Wulin has always been feared by the imperial court, and the relief food provided by the government is to help ordinary people, and will not give them anything to these Jianghu sects.He thought about it for a long time, everyone was struggling to get by in bad times, and how could they spare any energy to help others? If anyone in this world could save the Huashan Sect, it was the Xuanming Sect. At that time, the Xuanming Sect was really rich and incomparable , the shops in his hands are getting more and more money every day, countless unheard of rare treasures all flow out of Xuanmingjiao's shops...

For the sake of Huashan, he gave up his face and came to the door to ask for help. At that time, Feng Wuya didn't feel any embarrassment to him. He treated him with courtesy and generously gave him a box of gold, so that he didn't have to worry about it...

Obviously when he was rescued by Xuanming Sect at that time, he was deeply moved, and even swore in his heart that he would follow the lead of Xuanming Sect in his life. He used the money donated by Feng Wuya to go to the south to buy rice grain and transport it back to Mount Hua, not only saving the whole world. The disciples of the Huashan faction, and even the people within the sphere of influence of the Huashan faction at the foot of the mountain also survived the famine year because of this batch of food and grass.

Thinking of the demeanor of Feng Dajiao back then, he still feels ashamed to this day. How could such a good person die young because of their persecution... Over the years, he has been tortured by demons every day and cannot sleep peacefully. He regretted it all the time in his dreams, why was he so obsessed with ghosts back then, not only did he not know Xuanmingjiao when he got the news, but because of money and silk, he joined Xuanmingjiao together with everyone in the martial arts?

He didn't dare to mention that the Xuanming Sect was not disgusted but guilty over the years. Every time he thought of the Xuanming Sect, he felt more guilty, so he hesitated again and again and was not willing to throw away the wooden box, because this wooden box saved the entire Huashan, but He didn't want to see this wooden box again, because this wooden box reminded him that he was just a treacherous person, so he could only stuff the wooden box in the deepest part of the warehouse, out of sight.

Unexpectedly, it still appeared in front of his eyes after 18 years. He looked at the incomplete jade wall inside, took a deep breath, closed his eyes and stuffed everything into his son's hands: "Now the Huashan faction is in charge of you. You also have full authority to handle this matter." Xuan Mingjiao was his heart disease, a proof of his ungratefulness back then, he didn't want to face it, and he didn't want to face it...

"Yes," Qiu Mingjie could only nod his head when he saw his father's sad expression.After hesitating for a long time, he decided to hide the jade wall and the wooden box as if he had never seen it before. Huashan was in a peaceful corner, and he didn't want to plot for wealth, and he didn't want to be involved in the martial arts disputes.

But Qiu Mingjie didn't want to get involved in the martial arts disputes, but the martial arts disputes were unwilling to let him go. A few days later, the Huashan faction held the Xuanming Sect's treasure jade wall, and everyone in the world knew about it. There is no way to avoid it.

Qiu Mingjie made a decisive decision regardless of the New Year's Eve, and took his confidants and Yubi to the Qingfeng sect...

At this point, Ma Changfeng could only nod in agreement with the rumor. He originally planned to deny the fact that he didn't recognize the treasure map, and then searched for it in private.Since he got this chance by coincidence, the treasure of Xuanming Sect should belong to him, so why should he share it with others? He moved, everyone stared at him, and immediately hated the person who spread the rumors. Whenever someone asked him about the treasure map, he had a smile on his face. Ashes.

And if Yubi is left outside, he still has a chance to find it slowly, but if it falls into the hands of other sects, he wants to seize it without disturbing others. Among them, it is not easy for him to be ranked in the middle.
