As time went by, Lin City was completely under the control of the Shen Family. The rest of the small forces also went with the flow. After all, whoever controlled Lin City did not have much to do with them. It was not their turn anyway.
The end of the year was approaching. The Shen Family was decorated with lanterns and colored banners. The servants were busy inside and outside. It was very lively.
Shenlang waved the folding fan in his hand and strolled in the Shen Family's mansion.
On the way, the servants and guards who saw Shenlang all bowed respectfully.
"Greetings, Young Master."
These people respected Shenlang from the bottom of their hearts. The Shen Family was what it was today. In their hearts, Shenlang was a legend.
The news that Shenlang had broken through to the Emptiness Realm had spread. The Tenji Pavilion had also removed Shenlang from the Ranking List of Young Masters.
However, although Shenlang was no longer number one on the Ranking List of Young Masters, he was more famous than before.
An 18-year-old Emptiness Realm Expert. Who could imagine?
If Shenlang had been born in the Ancient Era or the Archean Era, it might not have been too shocking. However, in the current environment of the Zhenwu Continent, an 18-year-old Emptiness Realm Expert was simply like a myth.
Shenlang smiled and nodded at the servants. Although he had a cold personality, he did not have to pull a long face all day. Moreover, he had to establish a chivalrous image.
Ever since the Shen Family had obtained the resources of Lin City, they had been able to do things even more generously. The number of Itinerant Martial Cultivators who had come because of the Shen Family's reputation had also increased. Although most of them had come with the intention of freeloading, Shen Lang didn't mind.
These people could not be of great help. However, they could spread the fame of the Shen Family and attract more people to join the Shen Family.
Currently, the strength of the Shen Family had overshadowed the other four major forces in Jiangzhou.
Not to mention Shenlang and the others who had high-level combat strength, the Shen Family already had more than a thousand guards who were in the Innate Realm and the Acquired Realm.
Among them, there were more than twenty guest elders who were at the late Xiantian realm and above.
This was an extremely terrifying number. Although Shenlang had killed many Emptiness Realm Experts and thought that the number of Emptiness Realm Experts was too high, the Innate Realm was nothing. However, that was because of the level that Shenlang had come into contact with. In the eyes of ordinary people, Innate Experts were still existences that they had to look up to.
The Qingcheng School, which had been passed down for more than 2000 years, only had a few more masters at the late stage of the Innate Realm than the current Shen Family. From this, it could be seen how powerful the Shen Family was. If Shenlang had not been afraid of attracting attention, the Shen Family would have been one of the great powers in the Eastern Region.
"Young Master, the head of the family has summoned you to attend the annual meeting."
Shen Qing said as she ran to Shenlang with a blushing face.
"Okay, let's go." Shenlang closed his folding fan and turned around to walk towards the main hall of the Shen Family.
At this moment, the main hall was very lively. The guest elders of the Shen Family had also been invited by Shen Wuming. Because there were very few direct descendants of the Shen Family, Shen Wuming had also invited them to join in the fun.
More than twenty warriors at the late stage of the Innate Realm sat in the main hall in an orderly manner. As soon as Shenlang walked in, those people stood up one after another and saluted Shenlang with cupped fists.
"Hello, Young Master."
"Hello, Young Master."
Shenlang smiled and nodded his head. "Hello, everyone. Please take a seat. The Shen Family doesn't have so many rules. As long as everyone is wholeheartedly loyal to the Shen Family, I promise that the Shen Family will not treat you unfairly."
Those warriors understood Shenlang's words. If they were loyal to the Shen Family, they would be rewarded. If they were not loyal to the Shen Family, they would probably end up in a miserable state.
It was not until Shenlang sat down that the warriors took their seats one after another.
Shen Wuming and Qin Suzhen sat at the head of the table, while Shenlang sat beside them.
After seeing that everyone had sat down, Shen Wuming raised his wine glass and said, "This is the first annual meeting of the Shen Family since my father disappeared. First of all, I would like to thank everyone for joining the Shen Family. This shows that everyone is very optimistic about the Shen Family. Then I won't talk nonsense. Drink this glass of wine. From now on, everyone is a family."
As soon as his voice fell, everyone picked up their wine glasses and drank it in one gulp.
After Shen Wuming sat down, Shenlang frowned and said, "Father, is there still no news about Grandfather and Uncle?"
Shen Wuming sighed, "Ai, I have already instructed those rogue warriors to keep an eye out for them. But until now, there is still no news. I don't know where Father and Uncle went."
Shen Lang nodded thoughtfully. Shen Kun and Shen Wuhui were not simple people. He had already guessed that the two of them might be together now. As for why Shen Wuming did not know anything, Shenlang guessed that it should be related to him.
Others might not be able to see the difference in him, but Shen Kun and Shen Wuhui had watched him grow up. If there were any changes, they would definitely be able to see it clearly.
What secrets did they have? Why did they not let him know? Were they afraid of something?
However, he could not find Shen Kun now, so he had no way of knowing the specific reason. Therefore, he did not think much about it. With his current strength and influence, even in ancient times, he could be considered a giant. Even if Shen Kun had some conspiracy, he could face it calmly.
He could not wait for the world to descend into chaos. The suppression of the twenty-one forces was really too strong.
According to the information that Shenlang had received, the secret forces included the Bloody Massacre Hall and the Temple of Eternal Life. These two forces were very mysterious and powerful. Together with his Hades, there were already twenty-four top forces.
Unfortunately, even if the three of them joined forces, they would not be able to break through the suppression of the twenty-one forces. The Temple of Eternal Life should be the strongest of the three forces. Unfortunately, they still did not dare to openly confront the twenty-one forces.
Among the twenty-one forces, Shenlang was most wary of the Tenryū Temple, which was far away in the Buddhist Kingdom of the Western Region.
The Tenryū Temple, which was ranked first, was definitely not simple. Shenlang had once checked the records of the Zhenwu Continent. The Tenryū Temple had been the strongest force in ancient times.
During its strongest period, the Tenryū Temple was known as the Eight Division Heavenly Dragons.
The Eight Division Heavenly Dragons were eight people. The eight of them were all eminent monks of Buddhism. It was said that their strength was in the Void-breaking Realm. Later, when they fought against the Demon Race, the Eight Division Heavenly Dragons fell one after another. However, the Tenryū Temple did not decline because of the fall of the Eight Division Heavenly Dragons. On the contrary, it was still strong.
The annual meeting was very lively. It was late at night that everyone dispersed.
....
The next morning, Shenlang had just finished cultivating when he received a message.
The Creation Dao Sect had sent out hero invitations, inviting all the Emptiness Realm experts in the Eastern Region to go to the Creation Immortal Mountain for a meeting.
Anyone who received the Creation Dao Sect's hero invitations did not dare to disobey. Disobeying was equivalent to not giving face to the Dao Sect. As long as one was not a fool, one should know the consequences of not giving face to the Dao Sect.
"Young Master, are we going now?"
The Sword Saint looked at the hero's invitation that was emitting a mysterious aura and asked.
Shenlang tidied up his clothes and teased, "Let's go. Who dares to disobey the Boss's orders?"
"Then who should we send over to the Hades?"
"The Creation Dao Sect has sent a message to the Underworld, asking the Blood Slaughter Hall, the Hades, and the Temple of Eternal Life to send people over."
Gao Jianli stood at the side and said with a frown.
Shenlang pondered for a moment. "You can ask them. Just two people will be enough. I will be there anyway. They are just going through the motions."
