Chronicles of Celestial Origins

As the sun set in the west, a Wind Spirit Ship sped past from high in the sky. Suddenly, the surrounding world fell into darkness, and a hundred miles in radius turned into a bloody swamp, swallowing up the Wind Spirit Ship's pupa.

The sun was shining high and the sky was clear. The Xuanling Ship sailed past a valley, and several rays of light shot out from below. Many kinds of magical weapons showed their power, and in an instant, ice, fire, thunder and lightning spells covered the sky and blocked the sun.

In the empty orchid valley, in front of the huge light curtain, various magic spells are intertwined, and there are constant rumblings.

……………

In Xuantang City, snowflakes as big as goose feathers were flying, and a heavy snowfall covered the entire world. The Tianniu Mountains were even covered in silver, and they were all silvery white.

Along with the heavy snow, Tang Ning ushered in the end of her first year as a disciple of Taixuan Sect.

As usual, each team will hold meetings at the end of the year, but this year-end meeting is very unusual.

………………

"Have you heard? Chief Fang and Inspector Hao were forcibly taken away by people sent by the column on the spot in the meeting hall. It is said that the two people's faces were ashen at the time. Now the deputy captain Sima Nianzu is in charge of the headquarters." Directly under the Sixth Team In the meeting hall, a man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks whispered mysteriously.

The person who spoke was Yu Yan, a disciple directly affiliated with the sixth team. Judging from his expression, there seemed to be a bit of gloating about misfortune.

"Who wouldn't know about such a big thing? Rumors about this matter have been revealed." Another man with a hooked nose pointed to the upper road. It was Lu Fang, another member of the sixth team directly under the command.

"I heard that the Fengyun Chamber of Commerce reported this matter to the headquarters of the Fourth Army. It was the Army that directly ordered the arrests. The column was just following the orders. This time, Director Fang and Inspector Hao may be in danger, and they will never come back. ah!"

Su Mingcheng snorted slightly: "This means walking too much at night. Sooner or later, you will encounter ghosts. If we really follow the sect's laws, who of these people in our unit can withstand strict investigation? Every one of them will be included, even if they are not executed." It’s a pity that the whole sect is colluding and the top officials are collaborating, which makes it a mess.”

Several people were silent when they heard what he said. Su Mingcheng had always had an eccentric temperament, with a bad temper and a tough temper.

There are few in our unit who can talk to him or get along with him.

In addition, he usually speaks without scruples, speaks out, is quite cynical, and has many complaints against everyone in the sect. People are afraid of being implicated by him, so they dare not approach him. He himself has given up on promotion. Opportunity to receive rewards for meritorious service.

Others are not like him. Who in the alliance doesn't want to get mission opportunities, receive meritorious rewards, and then get promoted step by step.

Even if they are not thinking about fame and wealth, but just considering their own cultivation resources, there are not many people who are as open-minded as him.

If the alliance knew that he was working with him behind the scenes to organize the senior leaders of the sect, there would be no chance of promotion.

Therefore, everyone usually tries to avoid him.

At this moment, hearing him speak arrogantly again, directly criticizing the senior officials of the sect and the alliance, everyone fell silent, and the hall fell into a brief silence.

Zhang Chaoyang coughed slightly to break the slightly awkward atmosphere in the hall: "Junior brother Tang, you were the first party to investigate the Fengyun Chamber of Commerce's attack on our merchant ship. You must know the ins and outs of the whole thing better than us. What is going on? "

"Why is there such a big conflict between our headquarters and the Fengyun Chamber of Commerce? What does this have to do with the Xiaoxian Sect? Can you tell us the whole story?"

"Although I participated in the initial investigation of this matter, I actually don't know more than a few senior brothers. The matter originated from Fengyun Chamber of Commerce's attack on the Xiaoxian Sect's merchant ship, and the merchant ship carried our supplies. I will follow up. I don’t understand." Tang Ning responded.

This was not a prevarication. He also participated in the initial Xiaoxian Sect investigation, only for a few days.

At that time, they returned to the third brigade station from Yuanquan Valley. After resting for a few days, Xue Jian led them back to Xuantang City.

At that time, he thought the matter was over, but he did not expect that it had just begun. In the next few months, the matter intensified and headed out of control.

Not only did the Fengyun Chamber of Commerce not stop, but they became even more crazy and launched a series of retaliatory actions against the Xiaoxian Sect. At first, they slightly concealed their identities, but after the Xiaoxian Sect launched two counterattacks, the Fengyun Chamber of Commerce completely ignited the anger of the Fengyun Chamber of Commerce.

They began to brazenly plunder the Xiaoxian Sect's merchant ships, attack the Xiaoxian Sect's property, and kill their disciples.

After repeated attempts by Fang Dasheng and others to no avail, the alliance joined the Xiaoxian Sect and engaged in several conflicts with the Fengyun Chamber of Commerce. The matter caused a stir in the city.

Just a month ago, Fang Dasheng and Inspector Hao Jianren were suddenly captured by the column, and the whole thing came to an end.

The arrest of the two men caused a shock within the alliance like a turbulent sea. Gossips and rumors spread quickly like birds with wings, and various versions came one after another.

There is news that the monks sent by the column broke into the meeting hall directly, arrested Fang Dasheng and Hao Jianren on the spot, put restraints in their bodies, and took them away.

This version is the most widely circulated. It depicts a nose and eyes. Even the expressions of everyone at that time were subtle and absorbed, as if they were seeing it with their own eyes.

As for the specific situation, no one knows except for a few stewards present, and several stewards of the alliance have kept the matter secret. So far, no one has spoken out to explain the matter.

As a result, various speculations and gossips spread all over the sky, and all the affairs of the alliance were temporarily taken over by deputy captain Sima Nianzu.

Apart from Tangning's participation in the initial investigation team, the subsequent series of actions had nothing to do with him.

Several battles with the Fengyun Chamber of Commerce resulted in considerable losses for both sides. The financial losses were secondary. The most important thing was the casualties among the disciples. As far as Tangning knew, more than a dozen disciples were killed or injured on the Alliance's side. The Fengyun Chamber of Commerce temporarily I don’t know the casualties, but as for the Xiaoxian Sect! The casualties would be even greater.

The fact that things had reached this point must have exceeded Fang Dasheng's expectations. It could be said that it was completely out of his control, so much so that it alarmed the column and even the Fourth Army.

The matter has temporarily come to an end with Fang Dasheng and Hao Jianren being detained and arrested. No one knows what will happen next.

Now everyone in the entire unit is waiting and watching, waiting for the specific results. No matter what, there must be an explanation. Whether it is conviction or dismissal, it cannot remain undecided!

The captain and the inspector were taken away without any explanation. No one in the unit made the decision, and many affairs were at a standstill and could not be carried out.

Regarding this matter, there are some who are gloating about the misfortune, some who are anxious and uneasy, and some who are ready to take action.

Tangning was one of them. After hearing the rumors that Fang Dasheng was being escorted, he had been feeling uneasy for a while. Fang Dasheng was his only support here.

If, as the rumors say, a column of monks broke in and took him away, then his conviction is basically certain.

Once he is convicted and he loses this support, he may not have a foothold in the alliance in the future, let alone obtain various training resources.

After this period of getting along, he had a rough understanding of the complexity of Taixuan Sect's internal competition.

To put it simply, if you want to gain a foothold in Taixuanzong, your backstage background must be far greater than your own abilities. Otherwise, you will be marginalized, get nothing, and eventually fall into an endless cycle.

"You think, if Chief Fang and Inspector Hao are convicted, can Deputy Captain Sima be promoted to chief?"

"Nine times out of ten! Apart from him, no one else is qualified!"

"It's hard to talk about this matter. If the sect convicts them, the deputy captain will have something to do with it. I think it's very likely that the chief will be parachuted in. Besides, he is the chief, so whoever is the inspector can't be without the inspector, right? !”

In the meeting hall, several people talked about the impact of this incident on the alliance. About a quarter of an hour later, Yu Qian came in from the outside. Everyone stood up and bowed and saluted, calling him Master Yu.

Only Su Mingcheng sat there motionless.

Yu Qianjing went to the main seat and sat down. He waved his hand and motioned for everyone to take their seats: "For this year-end regular meeting, I will give a statistical explanation of the team's various expenses this year."

"On January 8 this year, Zhang Chaoyang performed a joint mission. He took a merchant ship on the left and spent 50,000 spiritual stones. He received a merit reward of 20 points and a spiritual stone reward of 100,000 spiritual stones."

"On March 16th, Yu Yan performed a joint mission. The merchant ship transportation expenses were 50,000 spiritual stones. He received a merit reward of ten points and a spiritual stone reward of 50,000 spiritual stones."

"…………………………"

Yu Qian stated one by one the tasks and rewards that everyone had completed this year.

What Tangning never expected was that the merit reward he received was ranked first in the team, with fifty merit points. You must know that he has officially become a disciple of Taixuan Sect, and it has only been a few short years since he joined the sixth team directly under the alliance. Just a few months.

In the alliance, in addition to Zhang Chaoyang, Yu Yan and Lu Fang, there are two other people who have not received any meritorious rewards. These two people are Jiang Tianyuan and Su Mingcheng.

This shows how difficult it is to obtain the missions issued by the alliance. The rewards are very generous, which makes it even more obvious that there are more wolves than meat. Tangning, who accepted the two missions just to make up the numbers, can get such a high reward. reward.

If it is a task that you are responsible for alone, the reward will be even more generous.

Don't underestimate these fifty merit points. If you exchange them for elixirs, you can exchange them for two or three bottles of Huang Yuandan.

After Yu Gan announced the merit awards that everyone had received, the other people looked at Tang Ning with a somewhat strange look. To be precise, they looked at her with jealousy and hostility.

Su Mingcheng snorted coldly, then stood up and said, "Senior Brother Yu, if there is nothing else to announce, I will take my leave first."

After saying that, without waiting for Yu Gan's reply, he walked away and walked straight out of the hall.
