"Tomorrow, we will set up an examination hall here and set up an elimination round. Only the last three will be accepted! I hope the two of you can let go of the hatred in your hearts for now. "If I am injured now, it will be somewhat unfavorable for the test tomorrow!"

Seventh Elder of the Tian Xing Holy Sect said, then smiled at the two before turning to leave.

"Tomorrow, if you dare come to the assessment, I'll definitely kill you!" Qin Yueshuang said fiercely, the moment she thought of Tang Ao's smirk and call her a broken shoe, fire burned in her eyes.

The crowd gradually dispersed, and in just a short hour, the news of several great sects coming to their doorsteps to recruit talented warriors had already spread through every street and alley.

"Haha, great!" I, Nangong Xue, am happy for you! "

In a private room in a tavern, Tang Ao and Fatty Nan Gong were drinking and chatting happily.

As for the two servants of Nangong Xue, they were called to an inn by him, waiting for him to return.

"Right, Brother Tang, I heard that the reason that girl from the Qin family was able to awaken the Dao Body of Heaven's Mandate was because of the Destiny Stone that you gifted to her." Nangong Xue looked at him with a peculiar gaze.

Tang Ao nodded his head, he was extremely calm. However, when he thought about it carefully, he felt that it was a pity. Although the Destiny Stone were useless to him, he was still unwilling to be taken away by Qin Yueshuang.

However, things had already come to this, and Qin Yueshuang had already completely merged with his Destiny Stone, so it was already impossible for her to take it back. Even if he killed her, the Destiny Stone would die with her.

"Brother Tang is truly magnanimous!" Nangong Xue laughed, but it was not hard to see that his words carried a trace of ridicule.

Tang Ao shook his head and laughed helplessly.

"I heard that there has been some war in the foreign battleground recently. Our family also has a shipment of goods that needs to be transported over there. Hopefully nothing will happen!" Nangong Xue poured wine by himself and said after drinking it.

Tang Ao's heart skipped a beat and he asked: Otherworldly? are they the territories that have not been returned to the country? "

Nangong Xue nodded his head and explained: "How big is the Xuanhuang Continent? It is very difficult for mortals to reach the end of their entire lives. If they do not borrow a Space Teleportation Array, even if they are cultivators who can fly through the air, they would need to spend their entire lives to not necessarily reach the end."

"The continent is too vast, but we don't have that many people. Thus, there are many regions that do not belong to us, and they can be considered to be places that don't care about anything else. There are always wars here."

Tang Ao nodded, he was extremely clear about the Xuanhuang Continent. The only difference was that some of the things that belonged to his era no longer existed.

Time was the most merciless of all. The passage of time changed, eliminating one generation after another. Beauty turned into bone, and heaven's pride level experts transformed into loess.

The two of them conversed for a long time, and Tang Ao finally understood the power of the Nan Gong Family. This not only shocked him.

The Nan Gong Family was not only one of the wealthiest merchant families on the continent, but their funds could also be compared with a small country on the Xuanhuang Continent.

In addition, they also had the continent's most famous intelligence network, which spread across the entire Five Regions. Even some of the foreign powers had spies.

Although they were not from a martial arts family, their background was not something that an ordinary force could invade!

"Brother Tang, what are your plans?" Will you participate in the examination tomorrow? " Nangong Xue asked.

Tang Ao thought for a while, and in the end, nodded and said: "If I can pass the examination, perhaps I will join the Seven Killing Sect!"

Although Fatty Nangong seemed carefree, he was very shrewd and came from a business family. How could he not have any schemes?

As if he had seen through Tang Ao's thoughts, Nangong Xue slightly smiled, and said in a low voice: "Brother Tang, are you going for the Seven Killing Arts?"

Tang Ao was shocked in his heart. Although the Seven Killing Arts was not some secret that was unknown, the fact that Nangong Xue could guess his thoughts so quickly still surprised him a little.

Nodding his head, Tang Ao did not explain any further and started to eat.

It wasn't until it was late at night that the two of them slowly walked out of the restaurant. When they arrived on the street, just as they were about to leave, a figure suddenly rushed over.

Focusing and looking around, the person who came was one of Nangong Xue's servants.

Seeing Nangong Xue walking out of the restaurant, the servant quickly walked to his side, whispered a few words into his ear, and then left.

"Brother Nangong, what's wrong?" Tang Ao asked, and noticed that Nangong Xue was looking at him with a strange expression.

"Brother Tang, is my father in the city?" Nangong Xue suddenly asked.

Tang Ao was startled at first, but after that, he seemed to have thought of something, and an ominous feeling emerged.

"You have to be mentally prepared!" Nangong Xue had a complicated look in his eyes as he looked at Tang Ao and continued to speak: "The family sent news just now, saying that our goods have been delivered safely. However, they have also sent another message."

Tang Ao did not speak. He waited for Nangong Xue to continue speaking, and at the same time, the haze in his heart grew even darker.

"Bluestone City's City Lord encountered an ambush on the foreign battleground. It is unknown whether she is dead or alive!" Nangong Xue said, although the two of them did not know each other for long, they had a better understanding of each other's family's background.

"Boom!"

As if he was struck by lightning from a clear sky, Tang Ao's body became unstable and his vision turned dark, almost falling to the ground.

At this moment, he thought of something and pieces of memory fragments began to piece together.

"So Uncle Fu knew about this a long time ago." Tang Ao said to himself, his voice trembling. He thought about when he went to the Qin family alone, Qin Wudao suddenly had no qualms about it, and gave him the absolute order to kill.

He also thought back to a few days ago, when the City Lord's Mansion's troops had been arranged in an orderly manner, disappearing from the city's gate.

"Brother Tang, are you alright?" Seeing Tang Ao in such a state, Nangong Xue could only sigh and offer his condolences.

Tang Ao was a little absent-minded, and instinctively greeted Nangong Xue before turning around and leaving in a daze.

"Father is dead …" "Father died …"

Along the way, Tang Ao only said this in his heart. It was only when he arrived at the City Lord's Mansion did he slowly wake up.

"Young Master, you're back!" From afar, the Uncle Fu came to welcome them.

Tang Ao raised his head to look, and suddenly, he felt that Uncle Fu seemed to have aged a lot these few days, his white hair became even thicker, a pair of bruised and swollen eye sockets indicating that he had not slept for a few days.

"Uncle Fu, where's father?" Tang Ao's voice was a little hoarse, her eyes lost their luster as he stared blankly at Uncle Fu.

Hearing that, Uncle Fu's body trembled. After a long while, his eyes reddened and he said: "Young Master, you know everything …."

Tang Ao went silent, the Uncle Fu's expression had already told him, everything was real!
