Legendary Sequence

2497, Daomen.

At this time, Su Yian had just been born, and Xie Qingsong didn't know him.

"Thank you, senior brother. I heard that you performed well in the exam this time. Maybe you can become an inner disciple this time."

"Thank you, senior brother, after all the hard work. After such a long time, you are finally entering the inner gate. Don't forget us in the future."

"Everyone is so complimentary. The results haven't come out yet. Maybe I failed."

"Haha, thanks to your performance this time, senior brother, you will definitely be able to enter the inner gate."

Xie Qingsong waved his hands modestly, but he couldn't hide the smile on his face.

"The assessment results are out!"

Someone shouted, and then the crowd surged towards the square.

Xie Qingsong couldn't hold back his excitement and ran towards the square.

Several inner disciples wearing white robes were unveiling the list. The list of red paper sunspots was floating in the air, announcing the hundred outer disciples who had passed the examination.

Xie Qingsong glanced over it, and the smile on his face disappeared little by little, and finally became completely stiff.

His name is not on the list!

"How could this happen..." Xie Qingsong murmured and walked out of the crowd in despair.

Failed for the third time...

"Thank you, senior brother, don't be sad, you are still young and you will have a fourth or fifth chance in the future!"

"That's right, senior brother, you can definitely become an inner disciple, hahaha!"

Several outer disciples of the Taoist sect who had been surrounding Xie Qingsong finally couldn't help laughing, and the ridicule filled with laughter could not be concealed at all.

Xie Qingsong clenched his fists, lowered his head and left without saying a word. At this time, what could be argued?

The rules of the world are so strange. No matter how hard you work, as long as you don't complete the last step of "success", others will not take your efforts seriously.

Under the dim light, Xie Qingsong couldn't help laughing at himself when he mentioned this matter.

Su Yian looked at him: "So this incident happened eighteen years ago, but then someone wanted to kill you to silence you, right?"

Xie Qingsong nodded: "Yes, it's my fault that I didn't have a brain and believed what they said easily."

"they are……"

"Xiong family!"

…

"Xie Qingsong, I heard that you failed the exam again this time?"

A young man leaned against the door frame and glanced sideways at Xie Qingsong, who looked decadent in the room.

Xie Qingsong looked up at the young man and frowned slightly: "Who are you?"

"Tian Chao." The young man introduced himself.

"We have no grievances, are you here to see my joke?" Xie Qingsong said sarcastically.

"How come?" Tian Chao smiled slightly: "I'm here to help you."

"Help me?" Xie Qingsong was stunned, and then realized that Tian Chao was not wearing Taoist clothes.

"who are you?"

Tian Chao did not answer the question, but said: "We can make a deal. I will help you become an inner disciple, and you will also do something for me!"

"You are not a member of the Taoist sect, what right do you have to decide whether I can become an inner sect disciple?!"

Tian Chao smiled slightly: "Of course I have my own methods, and although the Taoist sect has a transcendent status in Da Qin, it has not completely cut off contact with the world, especially with the aristocratic families, who cooperate with each other."

Xie Qingsong immediately understood the meaning of Tian Chao's tone. He looked at Tian Chao and asked, "So, which aristocratic family do you represent?"

"Kaiping Palace."

Xie Qingsong, one of the nine heterosexual king families in the Qin Dynasty, naturally knew about it, and indeed had such weight to allow an outer disciple to become an inner disciple.

So Xie Qingsong agreed.

At this point, Xie Qingsong sighed: "If I had known what he asked me to do at that time, I wouldn't have helped him."

"The Xiong family..." Su Yian narrowed his eyes, but he didn't expect that the Xiong family would be involved.

"What did Tian Chao ask you to do?"

"Actually, I'm not the only one he's looking for. There are several other intermediate magicians of level 3 or above, but I'm the only one from the Taoist sect. I don't know the details of the others."

Regret flashed in Xie Qingsong's eyes: "What Tian Chao asked us to do is to imprison a person. This person's name is Xia Ruoshu, Xiong Xiaohan's wife."

"At that time, Xia Ruoshu had not given birth to the child long ago and was weak, so we succeeded easily, and then used this to threaten Xiong Xiaohan, so that Xiong Xiaohan, a famous genius, failed miserably in the heir competition. Lost the opportunity to become the head of the Xiong family and inherit the title of King of Kaiping."

"We have completed the mission, but Tian Chao did not keep his word. I hate him in my heart and there is nothing I can do about it, because this matter is ultimately disgraceful. I dare not say anything to save my face, so I can only remain silent."

Xie Qingsong sighed heavily: "Then I met you, Master, and then I was expelled from the Taoist sect. Then Tian Chao and others started to hunt me down. The injuries on my body were caused by them. After hiding for more than ten years, I can’t hide anymore.”

"This is retribution for me."

Beside him, Zhuo Yan was silent. He felt that Tian Chao and others were heinous villains. Although he did not change his view after hearing this past incident from Xie Qingsong, as Xie Qingsong himself said, this was retribution.

In the reincarnation of heaven, Xie Qingsong did something wrong, and of course he had to swallow the bitter pill himself.

"It's good if you understand that this is retribution." Su Yian said.

"After so many years, I have let it go." After Xie Qingsong finished talking about this past, it was as if a stone in his heart had fallen: "I am sorry for Xia Ruoshu, sorry for Xiong Xiaohan, and even more sorry for their son Xiong Chumo."

"Xiong Chumo..." Su Yian touched his chin and even dragged this senior into it.

"I have been lingering for a long time, and dying early is also a kind of relief." Xie Qingsong said, looking at Zhuo Yan: "The only thing I am worried about now is him."

"Zhuo Yan did nothing wrong. I don't want him to die in the hands of the Xiong family. Master, I know you have great magical powers, and I know I don't have the face to say this, but I still hope that you can protect his safety!"

After that, Xie Qingsong knelt heavily in front of Su Yian and knocked his forehead on the floor.

"Master, please don't do this!" Zhuo Yan was about to help Xie Qingsong up: "You have saved my life, I am not afraid of death!"

"You are still young and have a promising future. How can you die with me, a sinful guy?!" Xie Qingsong shouted: "Can you grow some brains?!"

"But Master..."

"Okay, I don't have time to listen to your sentimental talk." Su Yian interrupted the conversation between the two.

"Xie Qingsong, I can help you, but I also have conditions."

"You tell me, I will accept any conditions."

"Write down the incident without missing any details, and put your handprint on it!"

"After that..." Su Yian looked at the two and lowered his voice.

For a long while.

"I understand." Xie Qingsong nodded heavily: "I will definitely write down this incident in full!"

"Zhuo Yan, you also have to listen to what my master just said, understand?" Xie Qingsong looked at Zhuo Yan and said in a serious voice.

"I..."

"If you don't agree, I will die in front of you!"

"Master, you!" Zhuo Yan's face changed, and then he said dejectedly: "I understand, I will definitely listen to him."

Xie Qingsong's expression softened a little: "Zhuo Yan, you are talented, but it's a pity that you have a master like me..."

"Master, don't say that." Zhuo Yan's eyes were a little red.

Su Yian glanced at the master and apprentice, walked out of the house, and let them talk about their heartfelt words for the rest of the time.

Then, he called Wang Jingtang and asked him to bring some people over, and bring pen and paper.

Then, he went back with Wang Jingtang, leaving a few masters to look after Xie Qingsong and his apprentice.

Back to the villa.

Wang Jingtang parked the car, then walked into the room, asked the housekeeper to pour a glass of milk for Su Yian, and then looked at Su Yian who was sitting on the sofa with his eyes closed thinking about something, and asked: "Captain, who were those two people just now?"

Su Yian opened his eyes: "You investigate the information of the Xiong family, especially Xiong Xiaohan."

"Xiong Xiaohan?" Wang Jingtang has been in Kunyang City for more than a year, so he naturally knows the name of this former genius.

"Yes, about this person, I want detailed information about the Xiong family's successor competition eighteen years ago, who competed for the position of the young master of the Xiong family, the specific process of the competition, and the final result, all these information I need."

Wang Jingtang nodded, and then asked with some awareness: "Are those two people just now related to the Xiong family?"

"Yes, and they are quite related." Su Yian touched his chin, with a playful look on his face.

"By the way, find someone to follow Xiong Chumo and report his schedule tomorrow to me."

"What if he stays at home and doesn't come out?"

"Then find a way." Su Yian looked at Wang Jingtang, his eyes a little colder: "Do you still need me to teach you one by one?"

Wang Jingtang's forehead was instantly sweating, and he quickly lowered his head: "I know I was wrong."

"It's okay if you don't make progress, but you want to regress? Wang Jingtang, you should understand that I don't like people who drag my feet!"

"I won't make such a low-level mistake again."

"Go and get busy." Su Yian said lightly.

"Yes!" Wang Jingtang lowered his head, gave the housekeeper a look, and then led the housekeeper out of the villa.

"That guy actually dared to talk to you like this, sir, he doesn't understand the difference between respect and inferiority. He really thinks that he can be so willful just because he comes from a noble family. It's a pity that you respect him so much, sir, but he..."

"Have you said enough?" Wang Jingtang lit a cigarette and asked expressionlessly.

Butler Wu was startled and quickly lowered his head. Wang Jingtang looked at Butler Wu: "You have followed me since the beginning of the year, and I am used to it. I don't intend to kill you, so I want to tell you something."

"You must respect him, because he gave me everything, including my life."

"So, if it happens again, I will cut off your limbs!"

Butler Wu knelt on the ground, his head bowed deeply: "Sir, I understand. If Mr. Su tells me to go east, I will never go west. If he tells me to climb a mountain of swords, I will never go to a sea of ​​fire. I will care about him more than you do about you!"

Wang Jingtang nodded with satisfaction: "Well said, I will give you a task, follow Xiong Chumo, if he doesn't come out, find a way to get him out."

"I understand, I will definitely do this!"

...

"Chumo, tomorrow is the big competition, are you still in the mood to study the topic?"

Dongfang Xiaoxin pushed the door open and entered, looking at Xiong Chumo who was writing furiously at the desk, she couldn't help but frown slightly.

Although she asked this question yesterday and understood Xiong Chumo's thoughts, she still couldn't help but care.

In the Xiong Family Competition, one careless move can lead to death!

Xiong Chumo did not stop writing immediately, but stopped after writing a certain paragraph, then turned around and said, "I'm not interested in being the head of the family. I'll just go through the motions of the competition tomorrow."

"My brothers and sisters also know my thoughts and will show mercy to me tomorrow."

"Don't your father and several of your uncles want you to compete?"

"Oh, they have no ability themselves, so why should they let me fulfill their long-cherished wish?" Xiong Chumo said sarcastically: "As for my father, I won't listen to the nonsense an alcoholic talks."

Dongfang Xiaoxin asked: "You have really made up your mind. If you fight seriously, you may not lose..."

"I have made up my mind." Xiong Chumo said.

Dongfang Xiaoxin nodded and said, "In that case, you don't have to keep immersed in research. You can also go out for a walk and rest."

"It's not interesting, it's more interesting to stay at home." Xiong Chumo said with a smile: "How can there be any interesting magic projects outside?"

"You!" Dongfang Xiaoxin said helplessly: "Let me see how far you have gone?"

"Sister Xiaoxin, don't be surprised after seeing this." Xiong Chumo said proudly.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, the door was pushed open again, and it was still the housekeeper from yesterday.

"Master Chu Mo, what's wrong, Third Master got drunk and had a conflict with others again!"

The smile on Xiong Chumo's face suddenly disappeared: "Did the Security Bureau say that?"

"No, no, at Yida Plaza, they did not call the police and refused to let Third Master leave."

"Who is so bold?" Dongfang Xiaoxin was a little curious: "No matter how bad Xiong Xiaohan is, he is still a member of the Xiong family. In Jingnan Province, everyone will give some face to the Xiong family."

"Yes Yes……"

"Speak quickly!" Xiong Chumo shouted.

"They are from the Shameng!"

Xiong Chumo's expression changed slightly, but Dongfang Xiaoxin had never heard of this name before and couldn't help but ask: "Cha League?"

"The Chameng is the largest underground force in Jingnan Province, and it even has considerable influence in the two surrounding provinces. Wang Jingtang, the boss of the Chameng, is a well-deserved underground emperor!"

As Xiong Chumo said, he had already picked up his coat from the side and hurried out.

Xiong Xiaohan was his father after all, and the people from the Chameng were much more difficult to deal with than the Security Bureau.

Seeing this, Dongfang Xiaoxin also quickly followed out.

The housekeeper looked at this scene and sighed quietly: "Young Master Chu Mo, having such a father in front of you is a miserable life..."
