C139 A storm is brewing
Night quickly descended, and the hazy moonlight enveloped the entire Heavenly Star City. The Star Light sprinkled downwards, and it was like a flowing galaxy, beautiful yet illusory.
Qin Xuan was currently cultivating in his own room, when he heard a knock on the door. He could not help but frown, who could it be who knocked on the door?
Opening the door, Qin Xuan's pupils contracted. Seeing the person who entered, he cupped his hands and said, "Uncle Wang."
The person knocking the door was actually the patriarch of Wang Family, Wang Han. With a mysterious smile, he said, "Nephew Qin, come with me to a place."
Qin Xuan was a little doubtful, how did Wang Han find his own room? It was rumored that the Heavenly Star Pavilion had absolute protection of the privacy of customers, could it be that the Wang Family's strength was enough to affect the Heavenly Star Pavilion?
Although he was a little puzzled, Qin Xuan still followed behind Wang Han. He believed that Wang Han would not make his move against him, with Elder Chen here, even if they wanted to harm him, they would not be able to do so. Origin King powerhouse's strength was beyond his imagination, it would not be difficult for him to protect someone.
The two of them passed through many rooms, finally arriving at an extremely secretive place.
Unknowingly, a command medallion had appeared in Wang Han's hand, he placed it into a slot, and then, with a banging sound, the steel door in front of the two of them actually snapped in half, revealing a pitch black path.
"This …" Qin Xuan's pupils shrank as he looked at the road ahead in shock. There was actually such a secret passage hidden in the Heavenly Star Pavilion, so very few people would know of it.
Suddenly thinking about something, Qin Xuan's gaze turned and stared at Wang Han.
A secret passage like this was probably the biggest secret of the Heavenly Star Pavilion, and would definitely not be known by outsiders. Furthermore, Qin Xuan had heard that ever since the Heavenly Star Pavilion was established, no one knew who its real master was.
And the scene in front of him, seemed to confirm something, the identity of the Heavenly Star Pavilion's master was about to be revealed.
Tianyu Country, Wang Family!
This answer seemed to be the most reasonable one, so it made sense for Qin Xuan to be in Qin Xuan's room.
At this moment, Qin Xuan suddenly felt that he had still underestimated the power of the Wang Family. On the surface, there was a Wang Family attracting his attention, but there were still Heavenly Star Pavilion operating in the dark.
One could imagine how terrifying the Wang Family's background was.
"900 years ago, the ancestors of the Wang Family followed the first Lord Emperor of the Tianyu Country down the river and were conferred the title of Duke. They wielded great power and established their own Wang Family. They were well-deserving of the title of being a super power at that time."
"500 years ago, Wang Family secretly established the Heavenly Star Pavilion. No one knew about it, but after almost a hundred years of operation, it became the number one restaurant in Tianyu Country."
"Three hundred years ago, a peerless figure appeared in the Sikong Family and led the Sikong Family to become a first-rate family. In two hundred years of time, the Sikong Family became more and more powerful, and after that, Sikong Xuan came out of nowhere.
Wang Han seemed to be recalling something as a trace of yearning appeared in his slightly pale white eyes. There were only him and Qin Xuan here, so his words were naturally addressed to Qin Xuan.
Qin Xuan was silent for a moment, then a ripple appeared in his heart, probably because of the so called change of ups and downs. The Wang Family was actually this brilliant in the past, the super power of the past, although they were still strong now, but compared to when they were in the past, they had declined by an unknown amount.
And the Sikong Family, from an extremely ordinary family, was slowly promoted, step by step. Under the Wang Family's watch, they climbed higher and higher, finally knocking the Wang Family down from the altar, and became the only super power.
To Wang Family, this was undoubtedly the most humiliating thing.
Qin Xuan finally understood why the Wang Family urgently joined hands with the Mu and Xie Families to go against the Sikong Family. It was probably not only because the Sikong Family was domineering and oppressed the other families, but also because the Wang Family wanted to wash away his shame and return to the peak of his power. Peak.
"I never thought that the Wang Family would have such a glorious history. I believe that the glory of the past will definitely reappear in my uncle's hands." Qin Xuan suddenly said.
"I hope so." A hint of hope flashed past Wang Han's eyes, he then said: "Let's go, there are still a few people waiting for us inside."
"Qin Xuan nodded his head, and then followed Wang Han into the secret passage. The moment they entered the secret passage, the inside immediately lit up, as if they could feel that someone had walked in.
After a short while, the two arrived at a large, brightly lit hall. Many decorations hung on the walls, releasing the might of many magical treasures. Five-colored light bloomed, and the walls seemed to be made of pure gold.
"This is the third floor of the Heavenly Star Pavilion." Wang Han said to Qin Xuan with an expression of unconcealable pride. This was a treasure left behind by the ancestors of the Wang Family.
"So it turns out that the legendary Heavenly Star Pavilion's third floor really exists. I'm afraid they would never think that the third floor is actually a treasure hall formed from a pile of artifacts." Qin Xuan was shocked as he muttered in a low voice.
"Let's go in now." Wang Han said, he then led the way, straight into a room at the deepest part of the hall.
"Creak."
The door to an extremely secretive room was slowly pushed open, and with a heavy creaking sound, two figures walked in.
Even though Qin Xuan was already mentally prepared, the moment he raised his head, his pupils still contracted involuntarily.
In front of him, four figures were quietly sitting there, as if discussing something. When they saw Qin Xuan and Wang Han arrive, they all stood up and said, "Nephew Qin, Brother Wang."
"Greetings, Patriarchs." Qin Xuan cupped his hands and said to the few of them.
Wang Han walked up and pointed to a middle-aged man dressed in grey robes in the middle, and said: "This is the patriarch of the Mu Family, Mu Chi."
"I've already witnessed the talent of nephew Qin from the banquet that day. He can be said to be peerless in his generation and unrivaled in the world." The wooden ruler laughed and said, and looked at Qin Xuan with a hint of admiration.
"Uncle Mu is too kind." Qin Xuan replied in a neither humble nor arrogant manner.
Wang Han then introduced the remaining three people to Qin Xuan one by one, namely Xie Clan Master Xie Heng, Left Clan Master Zuo Long and Chou Dao, the Chou Clan Master of the Chou Clan.
No one knew that in the legendary third level of Heavenly Star Pavilion, the five strongest families of the Tianyu Country were actually gathered together, and the person who caused this was a young man.
Qin Xuan looked at the five people as his expression suddenly became serious. He cupped his fists and said: "Qin Xuan is extremely grateful that the five Patriarchs were willing to take action this time. Once this matter is successful, it would be time for the Sikong Family to step down."
Hearing this, the five of them had a sharp look in their eyes. They had experienced a lot of trials and hardships, otherwise they would not have sat on the seat of the head of the family. Since they had made their move, they naturally would not hesitate to succeed or else it would bring disaster to the family.
"Does Nephew Qin really have enough strength to fight against the Mysterious Sky Palace?" The Xie Clan's Patriarch, Xie Heng, stared at Qin Xuan and asked with a serious expression. It was obvious that he was still suspicious.
Qin Xuan nodded, and said confidently: "Uncles, please be at ease, the power of the sun down, is definitely able to suppress Mysterious Sky Palace."
When Xie Heng heard this, he finally relaxed and said, "That's great."
"Just suppressing them is not enough. Even if we managed to beat those three Yuan Kings, it would be even more troublesome if they were to send more experts back to the Mysterious Sky Palace." Chou Dao suddenly said as he glared at Qin Xuan with his sharp eyes.
Facing the domineering gaze of his enemy, Qin Xuan's expression remained indifferent, the corners of his mouth raised in a strange arc, and then he spat out a voice: "I'm afraid senior, I think you have misunderstood me, the suppression I'm speaking of, is not to contend, but, to completely crush you!"
As the sound of his voice faded, not only did Chou Dao's expression freeze, the other four Patriarchs' hearts couldn't help but tremble as well. Shock could be seen on their faces because of what the younger generation had said.
For a moment, the air went silent, and only the clan leaders could hear the agitated sounds of their breathing.
They had never thought that one day, they would actually have a drastic change of heart due to the words of a junior.
After remaining silent for a long while, Wang Han looked at Qin Xuan, and finally said: "Looks like this nephew already had a plan in mind. We don't need to discuss any further, we just need to wait for an opportunity and make our move."
"Alright, three days later, Heavenly Star Association will make his move!" Xie Heng said with an excited expression.
Qin Xuan's gaze suddenly fell on the Zuo Long who had been silent the entire time, and an unusual look flashed in his eyes, as he casually asked: "Uncle Zuo, do you have any other doubts?"
Zuo Long's words had caused him to recover his senses, and his expression changed slightly as he said in a flustered manner, "No no, there's no doubt about it.
"Senior, you're too kind. This junior is just playing around with my family, and in front of these uncles, I'm not even worth mentioning." Qin Xuan said rather humbly, but no one noticed the deep meaning that flashed through Qin Xuan's eyes.
At this time, Wang Han spoke up, "Since everything has been decided, let's go back and prepare. Gather the power of our family at the fastest speed possible and prepare for battle in three days. Nephew Qin, you should stay in my Heavenly Star Pavilion for these two days to prevent your whereabouts from being exposed."
The four Patriarchs nodded their heads in succession. Qin Xuan also said, "Don't worry, Uncle. This junior will know what to do."
"Alright, then let's separate now." Wang Han said again.
Afterwards, the six of them left through the secret door of the Heavenly Star Pavilion, the five patriarchs returned to their families, while Qin Xuan stayed in the Heavenly Star Pavilion.
Following Wang Han's suggestion, Qin Xuan did not leave the Heavenly Star Pavilion for the past two days. He stayed in the room to cultivate and raise his cultivation as much as possible.
Everything in the Heavenly Star City was abnormally calm. Ever since the last incident, the disciples of the Mysterious Sky Palace had restrained themselves a lot. After all, no one wanted to be secretly targeted by a strong practitioner.
However, under this tranquility, there seemed to be several undercurrents that were slowly flowing and gathering together, forming a storm that enveloped the entire Heavenly Star City.
