Chapter 1771: Return to the Barren Mountain
The cultivator known as the Black Snake let out bursts of vulture laughter and said in a hoarse and strange voice: "Black robe, your efficiency has always been very high, as long as you promise something, you can basically do it, but this time you disappointed me. ”
The black robe, who was very jealous of the black snake, hurriedly explained: "This mission is a bit difficult, although I have made great efforts this time, recruited a lot of masters, and equipped with some good equipment, but I am still a little powerless, but please rest assured, since I promised you, I will definitely do it." ”
After the black robe finished speaking, the black snake immediately asked, "What if you fail?"
"I won't fail, I can definitely complete the task, I made a careful plan and arranged my most elite subordinates to ......" the black robe said with some excitement, in the black robe's opinion, although this mission is difficult, but the probability of completion is still quite high, it can be called the upper three fingers to catch the snail, nine out of ten, the only uncertainty is the completion time.
Black Snake asked rhetorically again, "I want to know now, what if you fail?"
Faced with the black snake's questioning again, the originally confident black robe hesitated, to be honest, the black robe never thought about the consequences of failure, not only did he not think about failure when he traded with the black snake, but he also didn't think about it when he traded with others.
What if it really fails? The black snake will definitely not give up, you know, in the barren mountain, there is no order, there is no integrity at all, everything is based on the supremacy of strength.
"Definitely not going to fail. The black robe said again, this time, it was obviously a little lacking in confidence.
The black snake smiled, didn't speak, glanced at the black robe deeply, and said: "Give you three more days, after three days, I will personally bring someone over, whether your life can be saved, it depends on whether you can successfully complete the task, goodbye." After speaking, a cloud of black smoke surged up, and the black snake and the others disappeared without a trace along with the smoke.
The black robe, whose pressure had dropped sharply, sat down on the chair, sighed, and ordered the attendant to serve tea, after taking a sip of the fragrant spiritual tea, the black robe regained his composure, carefully reviewed the task arrangement, in order to complete the task, the black robe spent a lot of money to explore the situation of the Huoyun Cave, and specially recruited more than a hundred loose cultivators, let them kill freely, and select the strongest twenty people.
Basically, they are all masters of the fourth or fifth layer of Jindan, in the barren mountain where dragons and snakes are mixed, this level of master is also considered first-class, and everyone is also equipped with spirit pills and spiritual weapons, which is the most thought-intensive task in the history of the black robe.
No matter how he thinks about it, the black robe believes that the mission plan is seamless, and there is no possibility of mistakes, let alone failure.
"Your Excellency, someone is asking to see you. An interracial beauty came to the black robe lightly.
At this time, someone asks to see him? The black robe frowned slightly, if his subordinates came back from a mission, they would definitely come in directly, and there was no need to report it.
After a little hesitation, the black robe waved his hand and said, "Who is here?"
The interracial beauty replied delicately: "It's Li Muze and the others, they said that they came back after completing the task." ”
What the?
The black robe stood up excitedly, strode towards the door, and personally welcomed the return of Li Muze and the others, this is the best news that the black robe has heard in recent times, and after the black robe walked out of more than ten steps, he suddenly stopped, his face became very heavy, and he secretly said that something was wrong.
It stands to reason that if the task was completed, why didn't those elite subordinates of his come back?
In the eyes of the black robe, Li Muze and the others are consumables, and according to the plan, Li Muze and the others should be dead......
The more I thought about it, the more I felt that something was wrong with the black robe, his face became very solemn, and he became hesitant, but Li Muze and the others had already arrived at the gate of the palace, and claimed that they had completed the task, and they had to see each other no matter what.
Now the black snake is persecuting very urgently, even if all the elite subordinates are dead, if Li Muze and the others complete the task, it is acceptable, after thinking about it, the black robe set off to the gate of the palace, and saw Li Muze and the others standing on the steps of the palace, a total of twelve people.
Eight of the twenty people had been lost, and the twelve looked still wounded and embarrassed, and the six elite men in black robes had not returned.
"What's going on, why are the twelve of you coming back, and what about the others?" asked majestically, his gloomy eyes swept over Ye Fan and the others without fear, and then the black robe used his divine sense very arrogantly, and found that everyone was nothing unusual, and he was somewhat relieved.
Ye Fan snorted disdainfully, he had long expected that the black robe would not be at ease, so he deliberately asked Li Muze and the others to hide their strength.
"The Fire Cloud Cave is a hundred times more difficult than we imagined, and although the task is completed, it has suffered heavy losses. Ye Fan pretended to be sad and said.
The black robe's face became even more solemn, and the task assigned to Li Muze and the others was only to find violets and other spirit grasses, as for the hidden appointments, they were all completed by the black robe's elite subordinates, and those hidden tasks were also really valuable.
If all the elite men are dead, then the hidden mission may not be completed.
In order to verify the idea, the black robe asked in a deep voice, "What tasks have you all completed?"
Ye Fan didn't answer, but asked rhetorically: "We have worked hard and finally come back, do you want us to talk outside?"
A trace of displeasure flashed on the black robe's face, but he quickly concealed it, waved his hand and said, "I will immediately arrange a banquet for you to pick up the wind and wash the dust, please inside." After speaking, the black robe took the lead in returning to the palace, sat on the throne majestically, and quietly looked at Ye Fan and the others who arrived later.
On the surface, it didn't look like anything unusual in the black robe, it was still as majestic and domineering as before, but in his heart, he was full of doubts, he didn't know what was going on in the Huoyun Cave.
Ye Fan opened his mouth and said, "We have collected violets. Ye Fan waved his hand, and there were a lot of violets on the ground, exuding a faint medicinal fragrance, and the color was extremely beautiful, attracting the attention of foreign beauties.
The black robe was not in the mood to admire the violet, and asked in a deep voice, "Is that all?"
Ye Fan asked rhetorically: "When you issued a task to us, you only asked for violets to be collected. ”
"What about the follow-up mission? My people should have told you about the follow-up mission, and also, did my people ask you to bring things back, or did you bring back their relics?" asked the black robe, to the black robe, although the violet was valuable, but it was not of much use, not what he wanted.
If you can't get something, the black snake will definitely kill the killer, and the most important thing is that the black robe can't provoke the black snake.
