I began to understand the myriad things by chopping wood

The Xie clan in Chen County went through several days of turbulent undercurrents despite its seemingly peaceful state.

Countless people were waiting for Xie Yuan's reaction, but Xie Yuan's reaction was no reaction at all.

He practiced martial arts as usual and stayed at home as usual, seemingly unaware of the outside world.

Above Xie’s arsenal.

"What do you mean, you have a little understanding?"

Xie Fu frowned and said in disbelief:

"You've only been watching for two days, what can you possibly learn? Oh, I know you've already mastered the Human Peace. If you can improve a little bit... that wouldn't be bad, right?"

Xie Fu was somewhat confused by Xie Yuan's serious report.

However, Xie Yuan obviously did not alarm Xie Fu because of the increased progress in peace on earth.

He didn't say much, but just held the azure dragon soul and stood in the middle of the eighth floor.

When Xie Fu saw his appearance, he stood aside with his hands behind his back, his old but clear eyes revealing a scrutinizing look.

Xie Yuan stood quietly, recalling what he saw in his mind.

When referring to the original version of "Burning Heaven and Destroying Dao Spear", he felt the illustrations of the gun-wielding moves and carefully experienced the charm of the human figures. His mind was moved, and the candlelight on his arm swayed like a living thing, emitting extremely high flames.

Then Xie Yuan understood something, and more than just a little.

He thought about it for a moment and began the drill.

The dragon spirit suddenly pointed diagonally upwards.

Xie Yuan stood straight, as if he was a javelin.

The long dragon soul pointed obliquely towards the sky, and the whole person exuded a solemn and murderous aura.

Xie Fu's expression suddenly became surprised.

He stood up a little straighter and looked at Xie Yuan more seriously.

After Xie Yuan got his spear into a contemptuous starting position, he suddenly swept it diagonally from top to bottom.

The gun body danced out afterimages, like a dragon swinging its tail, and the sharp blade carried cold electricity, like a thunderbolt from the sky.

Xie Yuan stood upright, and his spear covered the entire area in front of him.

At this moment, the dragon soul is like a long whip, whipping all the enemies in front of it.

call out--

The sound of breaking air was heard first, and then the shadow of the gun passed several feet in front of Xie Yuan, bringing up a gust of wind and directly stimulating the clear light of the formation.

Xie Fu waved his hand slightly to suppress the formation, then looked at Xie Yuan with sharp eyes.

Murderous and awe-inspiring, with grand opening and closing.

Just like an invincible general maneuvering on the battlefield.

Xie Fu stared carefully at the murderous aura revealed in Xie Yuan's every move, and at Xie Yuan's powerful and awe-inspiring spear moves that enveloped all directions, and surprise gradually appeared in his eyes.

It’s the second move of the Burning Heaven and Destroying Dao Spear, “Ten Thousand Enemies”, not bad!
Although it was a little awkward, Xie Yuan was able to perform it completely.

This is more than just a small understanding!

After only a few days of contemplation, have you already comprehended a complete new form?

Xie Fu's eyes were full of admiration. Even though he knew that Xie Yuan had an amazing understanding, he still felt very surprised at this moment.

If the first move, Peace on Earth, is the general outline of the Burning Heaven and Destroying Dao Spear, the spear comes out of the human world and is invincible for the rest of its life, it is fairly balanced and relatively easy to master;

The second style, Ten Thousand Enemies, is the real gun that kills enemies.

More domineering, more grand, more murderous and powerful.

This style of spearmanship is designed entirely for attacking. It has seven moves, and each move is fatal. No move allows room for maneuver, and there is no defensive form.

Among the Burning Heaven and Destroying Dao Spear, this move is also extremely powerful.

But at the same time, great power also brings great difficulty. If you want to be the enemy of ten thousand people, you must have extremely high talent and great courage.

Anyone in the Xie family who has practiced this style must be a top master, with lightning speed and an invincible spirit, to be able to do it more easily.

Ninety-nine percent of the few who came into contact with the Burning Heaven and Destroying Dao Spear before becoming a Grandmaster would stop before the second move and would continue practicing only after becoming a Grandmaster.

As a result, Xie Yuan not only mastered it, but also understood it in just two or three days?
Xie Fu's eyes flashed as he looked at Xie Yuan's powerful and unrestrained spear skills. Amid the endless gun shadows and howling winds, his surroundings had become a desperate zone for the enemy.

When Xie Yuan finished his move, loud applause broke out from the side.

"Not bad!"

Xie Fu was full of admiration:
"It's incredible that you can comprehend 'Ten Thousand Enemies' at your level of cultivation, and you have mastered it so well and comprehended it so quickly! It's just as I said, you are born with the blood of the Xie family, and you are suitable for practicing this spearmanship! Haha, your little comprehension is not small at all."

"Thank you for the compliment, Elder Fu."

Xie Yuan said modestly:

"Please give me some advice, Elder Fu."

When you are just starting out, you need a master to guide you.

Xie Fu nodded, took out the spear beside him, and then swept it in front of him casually.

hum-

A strange buzzing sound was heard, the wind was howling, and even the entire eighth floor seemed to shake when Xie Fu casually swept it.

In Xie Yuan's feeling, the old master's thin body suddenly seemed to become something he needed to look up to. With a casual sweep of his hand, he was like debris on the table or dust on the shelf. He had no room to resist and was simply swept away by a single shot!
"This shot is all about momentum, about being invincible, about looking down on others. The momentum comes from the heart and is expressed by the gun, so it will naturally sweep away all enemies. Standing firm is just an appearance, and pretending is useless. Feel it for yourself."

After Xie Fu demonstrated, he explained.

Xie Yuan listened thoughtfully. After thinking for a while, his momentum suddenly changed and he fired a shot.

Although he did not stand upright as before, the power of his spear moves was greater, and the murderous aura was about to burst out.

Xie Fu nodded with satisfaction, and was very satisfied with Xie Yuan's ability to comprehend:

"Ruzi can be taught."

He continued:

"When you shoot, you can't just focus on the enemy in front of you. You need to have a higher vision and a stronger temper. What's the second move called? Ten thousand enemies. You can't just fight one person, you have to fight ten thousand people!"

"That's right, eh, that's right!"

“Don’t hold back! Using seven times three is common in spearmanship and ordinary kung fu, but for this move you need to use nine times one, or even ninety-nine percent of one percent! You must kill with the final blow, charge forward without hesitation, and use all your strength. Being avoided? If you are avoided, it means you haven’t practiced well enough. For this shot, you must watch all directions of all enemies, leaving them no way to avoid your moves, and forcing them to accept your moves and die!”

Xie Fu began to give instructions with great interest, correcting the mistakes Xie Yuan made in his initial practice.

Xie Yuan naturally made rapid progress, and under the guidance of Xie Fu's decades of experience, his progress was rapid.

Xie Fu has always liked this clever junior, and he will never make mistakes once he teaches him. He is also the same even for the most difficult and ultimate spear technique like the Burning Heaven and Destroying Dao Spear, which makes people feel a sense of accomplishment when teaching him.

An old man and a young man were teaching each other how to shoot, and time passed by in a hurry.

Xie Fu’s instructions were almost complete. He stroked his beard and nodded with satisfaction.

"That's about all for today. It's not good for you to progress too quickly... You need to go back and consolidate your familiarity."

Although Xie Yuan seemed to be very solid, Xie Fuzhen was afraid that his amazing speed might lead to unstable foundation, so he let him practice on his own after giving him some pointers.

However, Xie Yuan stood there and showed no intention of leaving.

Xie Fu was puzzled when he saw this:

"What's wrong? Are you not having fun yet?"

he half-joked.

As a result, Xie Yuan nodded:
"Elder Fu, I still have a little understanding that I haven't asked you for."

"Still have questions? Okay, go ahead."

Xie Fu shook his head and smiled, being very tolerant towards this hardworking junior.

So Xie Yuan stood in the middle of the field without saying a word. This time he pointed his spear at the ground with a heavy aura that slowly gave rise to a sense of oppression.

When Xie Fu saw his actions, he almost popped his eyes out.

This can't possibly be... ?
The old master looked a little incredulous.

It was not until Xie Yuan really started to move that he opened his mouth slightly, a little out of control.

This spear technique, like the second style of Ten Thousand Enemies, is full of open and close movements and murderous intent;
The difference is that this spear technique combines the positive and the strange. It does not only focus on killing. The moves are agile and powerful, but it also has the meaning of protecting oneself. It is more solemn and murderous, and at the same time, it has many strange and clever moves.

For example, the sneak attack and the ground-sweeping attack were never seen in the previous two styles, but they are common here. They are unexpected and have amazing killing power.

Compared with the previous style, this style of shooting is more complex and has more changes, and can deal with more situations and enemies.

It was the third move of the Burning Heaven and Destroying Dao Spear, the Nine Netherworlds Demon Slayer.

It is said that Xie An once accidentally entered an extremely vast ancient secret realm, which was almost identical to the present world and was inhabited by humans.

But what is different from the outside world is that there are demons everywhere, people are living in misery, humans have become food for demons, and the environment is extremely cruel.

After Xie An was trapped, he took great pains to kill the demon and escape.

But when he returned to the present world, he felt uneasy when he thought of the miserable state of the human race there;

In addition, he was defeated under the siege of monsters. He would regard it as a shame even if he killed the monster leader and flew away. So he thought hard for a long time, created a gun technique, and entered the secret realm again.

A year later, Xie An reappeared in the world and brought a tribe with him and settled them in the present world.

No one knows what happened in the secret realm, all they know is that the ancient clan in the secret realm worshipped Xie An as a god.

In his later years, Xie An created the Burning Heaven and Exterminating Dao Spear, which improved and sublimated his previous spear skills, removing the dross and retaining the essence, and transformed it into the third style - Nine Nether Demons.

Go down to the nine underworlds and wipe out the demons.

This is exactly the kind of spear technique that Xie Yuan is using now.

After Xie Yuan finished using the spear technique that was both murderous, righteous, and spiritual, Xie Fu let out a long breath, and his voice became a little higher, asking repeatedly:
"You actually mastered the third move? How did you do it?"

Under the Grandmaster level, being able to comprehend two moves is already considered a gifted talent - a gifted talent among those who can comprehend this spear.

Three styles? Amazing talent, nothing more than that.

But if one could comprehend these two moves directly within a few days... then it would not only be amazing, it would be incredible and incomprehensible!
Seeing Xie Fu's expression of shock, Xie Yuan didn't know how to explain:

"I don't know either. I just watched and then a light bulb went off in my head and I got a little understanding."

Xie Fu was silent for a moment.

He didn't know what to say. What Xie Yuan said was correct. This was what was meant by understanding.

Realization in one's heart is a very personal matter and it is difficult to explain.

Xie Yuan said at the beginning that he had gained a little understanding...

Having mastered two styles of the Burning Heaven and Destroying Dao Spear, he has basically learned half of it now. Can you still say that he has gained some understanding?

Xie Fu couldn't help but pull his beard. This boy is not honest.

Xie Yuan said seriously:
"Please give me some advice, Elder Fu."

Xie Fu glanced at him and snorted unhappily:
"You are really capable. You are lazy and sloppy like your uncle in his youth, but you are very different from your serious father..."

Xie Fu seemed to recall the past, sighed, and said nothing more, and began to instruct Xie Yuan in spear training:
"Although there are many changes in Jiuyou Dangmo, the core is still the word 'kill'. Of course, this killing method is very different from that of Wanren Di, it is changeable and agile, you know the meaning. But when you are destroying the demons, you must not lose your heroic spirit. Listen to me in detail..."

The sun gradually set in the west, but its light was still brilliant and golden, illuminating the earth, the Xie family armory, and the Xie family members who were seeking the truth there.

It was not until the moon rose in the east that Xie Yuan came to an end of a very fruitful day.

He had comprehended the two styles of Burning Heaven and Destroying Dao Spear, Ten Thousand Enemies and Nine Nether Demons, in his heart, and with the careful guidance and introduction of Xie Fu, he only needed to continue to practice them, and his spear skills would naturally improve. Both the variety and the killing power would increase day by day, and there was no bottleneck in sight.

His strength had improved significantly again, and Xie Yuan thanked himself...thanked Wanbing Zhuying, and also thanked Xie Fu.

When the spearmanship instruction was over, Xie Fu looked at Xie Yuan who was about to leave, but stopped him.

He twirled his beard and took the initiative to ask about clan affairs, which was rare:

"Do you have any concerns about the Tianyun Garden?"

Although it was only a few days, Xie Yuan came to the armory to practice martial arts as planned. This was the first time that Xie Fu began to hesitate. Normally, he had hoped that Xie Yuan would stay here permanently.

But the matter of Tianyunpu was of great importance, so he was naturally not oblivious to it in the armory. In fact, he knew almost all the big and small things in the clan.

Especially since the recent disturbance in the clan had caused such a big stir, it was hard for Xie Fu to figure it out.

Xie Yuan hesitated for a moment and said:
"Xie Zhi and Xie Wen can no longer be relied upon. I have come up with another plan and am just waiting for its results."

"Oh?"

Xie Fusheng was curious about what solution Xie Yuan had come up with in such a difficult situation.
"What's your idea? If we ask Xie Lei to come out, it may not be enough. That was the Wang family and the royal family who took action. It is almost certain that there is a third powerful master lying in ambush."

He asked directly to remind Xie Yuan. But Xie Yuan hesitated for a moment before saying:
"Elder Fu, allow me to report to you later."

"That's fine."

Is there really a good plan?

Xie Fu looked at Xie Yuan, but did not delve into it further. Instead, he fully respected his authority as the head of the family.

He believed that Xie Yuan was a man of ideas and stability. Since he had said so, Xie Fu still trusted him quite a bit. He nodded and did not ask any more questions.

He just shook his head and said coldly:
"There are always people in the tribe who don't know the big picture. If it weren't for the fact that the arsenal really needs people..."

Xie Fu sighed, the clan still lacked top-notch combat power.

Xie Yuan comforted him:
"Nothing is more important than the armory. Elder Fu is truly the pillar of the Xie family."

Xie Yuan said goodbye and left.

Standing on the eighth floor and looking at the departing figure below, Xie Fu still couldn't help but feel curious.

What on earth was Xie Yuan thinking of? He seemed quite confident.

Two days later, Xie Yuan was still familiarizing himself with his new spear skills, but the tribesmen were getting a little restless.

People who are hungry will rebel, and those who are not good at martial arts will become resentful.

Xie Yuan was slow to act, and not only the ordinary clan members, but also the masters and elders were a little puzzled.

Have you given up? It was you who said the situation was urgent before, but now you think there is no other way and just start?
Although many members of the clan directed their criticism at the scheming opposition after the previous incident, the difficulties in cultivation were real, and Xie Yuan's prestige was not enough to overwhelm the entire clan.

In the pharmacy, Xie Wen played with the jade pestle and thought:
"I don't know what Xie Yuan is waiting for. He doesn't seem like the type to give up easily. Or maybe he really has no other choice but to continue to hold on and retreat? But how can Tianyunpu give up?"

His expression changed constantly, and then he exhaled and gave a serious order to his attendants:

"Spread some news and see how he reacts. If that doesn't work..."

The flesh on Xie Wen's face couldn't help but twitch.

If Tianyunpu was gone, then the pharmacy, a vital department, could be directly cancelled, and there would be no need for him to be the elder of the pharmacy.

Is this guy trying to compete with me in endurance?

Xie Wen looked uncertain and decided to test it out again and wait.

The wind direction within the tribe has quietly changed.

They had originally put the difficult problems on Xie Yuan, but suddenly they started to get anxious.

No, this Tianyunpu is really amazing.

The elders stared blankly. Some people came to ask to see Xie Yuan or to get his opinion every few days.

As a result, Xie Yuan started practicing Tai Chi directly and only said the word "wait".

This was just for the friendly masters like Xie Ting. He simply refused to meet the people sent by Xie Wen and Xie Zhi to eavesdrop on him.

He wanted to take advantage of this situation to drive Xie Yuan away, but he found that Xie Yuan had the ability to maintain his position firmly, while Tianyunpu was getting further and further away from the Xie family.

It's really worrying.

This lazy governance behavior caused dissatisfaction among the people. With the instigation of Xie Wen and Xie Zhi, Xie Yuan's previous reputation change showed a trend of reversal. Even the voices of opposition gradually made a comeback, even louder than before.

Xie Zhi even cursed:

"You are such a young boy, you don't know the big picture! If we really give up Tianyun Garden, how can the Xie family continue to develop? How can Xinglongtang continue to do business?"

"That's it!"

The people around echoed this, without mentioning who was the instigator of this situation.

The pressure within the clan is growing, and with the push of some people with ulterior motives, it's been like this for almost half a day. Everyone knows that these few days are critical.

If no action is taken now, perhaps by the time the Wang family becomes aware of the situation, makes their arrangements, and directly seizes the ruins, Yun Pu will no longer be called Xie.

The loss of core territory and resources is often the beginning of the decline of a large family.

Even Cui Pingjun was a little worried. She could no longer control the direction of the clan. The previous public opinions were beginning to backfire. How would Xie Yuan be able to bear it then?
But Xie Yuan just looked calm, as if he firmly believed that the result he was waiting for would come.

The letters for help sent by Tianyunpu became more and more urgent day by day, until they finally broke, like Xie's taut string.

In the meeting hall.

The elders gathered together and looked at Xie Yuan who was sitting at the top seat:
"Master, what do you want to do?"

An elder asked with a frown.

Xie Yuan glanced at the anxious elders and smiled faintly:
"I have my own plan."

"What is the plan? Can you let us know? After all, this concerns the entire clan."

The elder was obviously hesitant.

None of the elders knew what strategy he could use to fight against the Wang family.

Xie Yuan looked at these anxious elders and just laughed.

I asked you to be anxious but you were not. Now that I am no longer anxious, you are anxious.

His smile did not subside at all. The experienced elders could see it clearly and felt their faces and foreheads getting hot.

Is this something that can be taken lightly?
Xie Zhi said indignantly:
"Xie Yuan, if you can be the head of this family, then do it. If you can't, then step down and don't let the family down! If you had abdicated that time, I would have dealt with Tian Yunpu long ago! I think you will really become the eternal sinner of the Xie family!"

Xie Yuan glanced at him and laughed:

"If I become a sinner through the ages, Elder Zhi will definitely list me together with him."

Xie Zhi paused for a moment, knowing that what he said was right. No matter what they said, they knew exactly what factors had caused the current situation.

Seeing this, Xie Wen smiled, but Xie Yuan turned around and said:

"The same goes for Elder Wen."

Xie Wen's smile suddenly faded, but Xie Yuan didn't fade at all:
“And the pharmacy can be demolished directly.”

Xie Wen's expression became stiff.

If it really came to this, they would definitely be celebrities and sinners in the history of the Xie family, and would be spurned by countless descendants in the family tree. This would be simply unacceptable to the people in the aristocratic family.

Xie Wen's face was gloomy, and he finally couldn't bear it anymore and said:

"Xie Yuan, if you really have no other options, I can fight you."

Xie Yuan looked at him and said leisurely:
"But even if you and Elder Ting are alone, it's hard to say whether you will win."

"We have to give it a try, otherwise we're going to hand over Tianyun Garden to someone else? Xie Yuan, what on earth are you thinking!"

Xie Wen's face was already filled with fear. The current situation was totally different from what they had initially imagined.

It’s all because Xie Yuan is too tough!
He looked at Xie Zhi:

"Elder Zhi, would you like to go together?"

When Xie Zhi saw that Xie Wen actually invited him, his face changed, but he was hesitant.

Xie Wen cursed in his heart, this businessman is really unreliable, he is still scheming at this time!

Xie Yuan couldn't help but sneer as he watched this scene. He knew that these people would play tricks on each other and could not be relied upon.

Xie Wen glanced at him coldly and said:

"We can always wake up Xie Lei, and then everyone can work together to protect Tianyun Garden first."

"Really?"

Xie Yuan said half-believingly:
"My fellow elders, can our Xie clan still work together?"

Everyone was silent. There had been constant disputes in the conference room for some time, so it was reasonable for Xie Yuan to have this question.

Not to mention him, even these elders now don’t know whether they can fight with one heart. Xie Zhi, who has wandering eyes and wants to fish in troubled waters, is an example.

Xie Yuan sighed:

"I've said it before, the matter of Tianyun Garden cannot be delayed. If it is delayed any further, there will be disaster. Elder Zhi, ask yourself, even if I abdicate that day, can you take over? Ask Elder Wen, does he agree?

"Today, you are evenly matched. How can you decide the outcome? I'm afraid you can't even sit here and discuss matters."

Xie Zhi's face kept changing. Although he was a bad guy, he was not stupid, otherwise he would not be able to sit in this position and compete for the position of head of the family.

Xie Yuan is right.

Xie Wen let out a long breath. To be honest, as the elder of the pharmacy, he valued Tianyunpu the most. But because there were things he valued and wanted more, he had been patient, which could be called great perseverance.

Now it seems that there is really no way. Xie Yuan's strength, skills and patience have to be looked up to by him. Xie Wen feels that he can't delay any longer:

“If the Patriarch has such a long-term vision, just for today, Xie Wen is convinced.

"I am willing to fight and defend Tianyun Garden."

He looked at Xie Zhi and said firmly:
"You, Xie Zhi, were also a passionate man in the past. You practiced with unstoppable force and fought against powerful opponents from various families without falling behind. Now, even news from Tianyunpu cannot be transmitted. We don't even know whether the Wang family has already attacked. How can we be hesitant?"

Xie Zhi looked hesitant when he heard this.

After a moment, looking at the gazes in the hall, he finally said reluctantly:

"it is good."

After hearing his reply, Xie Wen immediately stood up, turned to Xie Yuan, and bowed vigorously:

"Master, Elder Xie Wen of Shennong Pharmacy is willing to fight!"

"Master, the chief elder of Wenhai Pavilion, Xie Ting, is willing to fight!"

Xie Ting also stood up and bowed.

Xie Zhi frowned and looked into the hall, looking reluctant, but still reluctantly stood up:
"Xinglongtang's chief steward Xie Zhi is available to fight."

As the three senior elders spoke, Xie Yuan smiled as he watched the elders in the stream hall finally reach a consensus.

Then he said:

"No need to go, it's all over."

The masters and elders were stunned for a moment, all at a loss.

"Really?"

An elder asked in a trembling voice.

"The news is authentic."

Xie Yuan said firmly.

All the elders changed color.

Although they didn't know where Xie Yuan got the news from, they all showed expressions of grief, anger, annoyance, and determination. Some elders were even ready to put their hands on their hips and curse.

Scold Xie Wen, scold Xie Zhi, scold Xie Yuan! They all deserve to be scolded!

If Tianyunpu is lost, the blow to the Xie family of Chenjun will be immeasurable!
It's too much... Many elders showed complicated expressions.

No matter how complicated the factors are, Xie Yuan, as the head of the family, cannot escape blame and his name will definitely go down in the history of the Xie family.

The elders looked at Xie Yuan with gloomy eyes. They wanted to question him, but they felt that he was just a child and there was nothing he could do.

At this point, everyone felt a little discouraged, and they only felt that the road ahead was difficult, with countless changes, and their brows were furrowed.

But no matter what, Xie Yuan was doomed to bear this infamy, and he would no longer be able to sit still on the position of the head of the family.

Xie Wen and Xie Zhi got the results they wanted, but they were not very happy.

For a moment, no one wanted to pay attention to Xie Yuan anymore, and there were only sighs and groans.

Xie Yuan looked at this scene, unmoved, just silently waiting for something.

Suddenly, hurried footsteps were heard outside the hall, and a messenger came quickly:
"Report——

"Report to the Patriarch, report to the elders!
"Tianyunpu has sent a message that the crisis has been resolved and the medicinal materials convoy is on the way back to the tribe!"

"what?"

Upon hearing this, the elders were stunned again, and then there was an uproar.

Several elders excitedly rushed to the messenger and grabbed him, repeatedly confirming the authenticity of the information. Although the others were reserved, they also pricked up their ears.

Only after asking again and again and confirming the authenticity of the news did the elders look at each other, and then turned their heads at the same time to look at Xie Yuan, who was sitting in the first seat, as still as a mountain.

The stream gurgled. Amid the elders' various looks, Xie Yuan had a calm face, lowered his eyes, and took a sip of tea.

The tea was good, brewed just right.
