Peerless Taoist

0The housekeeper said, "It's a young man in his early twenties. He came from Xiahou Manor. It was said that he was a guest of the Xiahou family. This old servant had investigated him before. He did not seem to be very strong. At least in the old servant's opinion, this person is not a threat at all."    

    

" Xiahou Manor? Is that the newly promoted Thunder Whale Hou Xiahou Li? " Great Elder asked.    

    

"That's right."    

    

"Hahaha, a guest of the Lord's Manor and a young man. Zhang Heng, is he your friend? You purposely used this name to reward your friend with the Dragon Pill. What a good tactic. " Ninth Elder mocked.    

    

Zhang Heng clenched his fists tightly, his eyes staring fixedly at the butler.    

    

He had only casually given a simple order, but he didn't expect that this servant would reveal everything to Ninth Elder.    

    

In the entire Zhang Family, although his name was Family Head, there were very few people who would truly listen to him.    

    

The Great Elder stroked his beard and heaved a long sigh. "Family Head, don't you know how important the boundless starry river is to our Zhang Family? If we lose, the Wei Family will seize this opportunity to rise rapidly. At that time, it will be the end of our Zhang Family. "    

    

" Although our Zhang Family relies on Ancestor's protection, Ancestor usually doesn't care about our family. They also know about it. The Wei Family has been eyeing our properties for a long time. They don't dare to swallow it all in one go. Instead, they chose to nibble away at it step by step. In the end, they forced us into a corner."    

    

"We can't afford to lose this battle. On what basis do you think that young man's attainment in formations is stronger than the Great Master of the Profound Yin Sect? "    

    

Zhang Heng clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and said, "That day at the Water Feast, I learned that he casually broke the formation of the treasures at the Water Feast and took away the Dragon Engraved Sword."    

    

The Great Elder nodded, and said, "So it's this person. I heard that at the Covered Water Feast, there was a disciple of the National Guard who was about to break the formation, but in the end, the treasure inside was snatched by a person who came later. So it was this person."    

    

The surrounding Elders burst into laughter.    

    

Some of them laughed at the misfortune of the disciples from the National Guard, while others laughed at Zhang Heng for not recognizing them.    

    

Look, you're still the dignified Family Head, but you actually found such a person, and even treated him as Formation Master.    

    

This couldn't be called muddle-headed, it was simply brainless.    

    

Ninth Elder suddenly waved his hand. "Since Family Head wants to perform, we naturally have to give him this chance. Since Family Head thinks that person is an expert in formations, then we should trust Family Head. Let that young man participate in this competition. "    

    

Suddenly, the Ninth Elder changed the topic and said coldly," But if this person doesn't have any ability, it will be a disgrace to our Zhang family. Zhang Heng, do you think you can still sit firmly in Family Head's position after doing such a thing?"    

    

This was his true goal.    

    

Since Zhang Heng could make such a foolish decision, then let him continue to make mistakes.    

    

By the time the Wei Clan came to challenge him, all of their clansmen would be gathered here. At that time, the people Zhang Heng had brought would be extremely unsightly, and Zhang Heng would probably lose all his face and continue to serve as Family Head.    

    

At that time, he, the Ninth Elder, would be the worthy candidate for Family Head.    

    

Zhang Heng naturally knew what the Ninth Elder was planning.    

    

He smiled coldly and said, "Ninth Elder, your plan is not bad. How about this, if the person I found is not capable, you will admit that you are blind, that you have lived in seclusion, and that you will give me the family's financial power. What do you think? "
