Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Breath of Darkness
The golden mask was silent for a while, nodded slowly, and said at the same time: "What you said has some truth, but over the years, there have also been secret agents in the sect who have been lurking in the True Immortal Alliance to investigate this matter, but they have not gained anything, what new methods do you have?"
Chen Yan shook his head and said, "This kind of thing is the same, only carefully investigate and trace every bit of the past." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info the 'Floating Cloud Division' in the True Immortal League, has always protected the shadows of those whose identities are secretive, and I don't know how many secrets are hidden, and it has also been the focus of our investigation for many years, but it has not been effective over the years. ”
Speaking of this, Chen Yan paused, then his eyes flashed, and said, "But the subordinates have an idea, maybe it will help." ”
"You say. ”
"In the past, we often desperately tracked down those 'shadows' whose identities and origins were very mysterious, but we often achieved half the result, but these days, our subordinates are secretly thinking to themselves, maybe we can change our minds and start with those who come into contact with shadows?"
"Huh?" the golden mask suddenly lifted, apparently the words intrigued him.
Chen Yan immediately noticed this, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes, but his expression still did not change, and he continued in his mouth: "The True Immortal Alliance has always attached great importance to the safety of the shadow, and the protection is extremely strict, but often for all kinds of people who come into contact with the shadow, such as patrol envoys, surveillance and other characters, although they also have their own secrets, they are often characters on the surface, such as the personal disciples of various sects, etc., so start from these people and follow the vine to touch the melon......"
"Very good! just do it!" A break directly interrupted Chen Yan's words, Chen Yan was not angry but happy, and hurriedly leaned over and saluted, saying, "Yes, subordinates obey orders!"
The figure in the golden mask slowly stood up, staring at the terrifying skeletons in the firelight in front of him, and suddenly let out a low roar, like a demonic roar, which was terrifying. I only heard a sound of gnashing teeth and hatred coming from behind the mask, and said coldly: "The great foundation of my God Sect, as well as the lives of the three elders, should have been the most powerful situation in five hundred years, but they were all destroyed in the hands of that traitor. If this fang does not die, how can my God Sect deal with itself!"
As soon as the words fell, he suddenly waved one arm, only to hear a boom, a flame burst up, the fire was raging, as if it was about to devour the heavens and the earth, and in the roaring flames, the voice seemed to be burning, like gold and stone clashing, like a hoarse roar, shouting and cursing towards this darkness!
"Break the bones and scatter ashes!"
"Soul Extraction!"
"Let Him Die ......"

In the dark night, Lu Chen stood outside the grass hut and glanced at the tea mountain, only to see a deep silence, the darkness was as thick as a picture smeared with ink.
He stood expressionless for a moment, then walked back to the hut, lay down on the bed, closed his eyes, and fell asleep in silence.
……
When he saw Dingdong again, it was already two days later, it was daytime morning, Dingdong walked by the clear water stream in the village, her beautiful appearance seemed to be the most gorgeous peach blossom, dazzling, in this season when the peach blossoms have withered, she is still in full bloom, attracting the attention of countless people in the village.
It's just that she doesn't care about the eyes around her at all, her eyes are so bright, as if she is standing in the clouds and disdains the dust, and she seems to be a person with a different fate from now on, and even the people who greet her rarely pay attention.
She kept smiling, but she didn't convey her smile to anyone, she had joy from the bottom of her heart, but she only wanted to make herself happy, and refused to give even the slightest bit to the layman next to her. It wasn't until she saw Lu Chen standing at the door of the tavern in the distance that Ding Dong stopped for the first time, a trace of hesitation flashed on her face, and then smiled at Lu Chen gently from afar.
Like the peach blossoms in the spring wind, they are delicate and moving, and they seem to have a bit of reserved nobility, which makes people dare not approach.
Lu Chen smiled in return, nodded at her, and then turned around and walked into the tavern.
The old horse sat at the table, and business was still bleak in the tavern, so his face didn't look good. Lu Chen walked up to him and sat down, and said with a smile, "What's wrong?"
The old horse glanced at him and said angrily: "Knowingly ask." ”
Lu Chen smiled: "You don't really rely on this tavern to make money to survive, what do you care so much about?"
Lao Ma snorted, went to the counter and brought a pot of wine back and threw it to him, then lowered his voice and said, "The matter of Xu Yunhe of Qianqiu Gate has been reported back to the True Immortal League, I heard that the upper authorities are furious and are investigating this matter." ”
Lu Chen poured a glass of wine, and after pondering for a moment, he said, "This matter is indeed a bit excessive, but it is also a little strange, at least the Three Realms God Sect has not done such an outrageous thing for more than ten years. ”
The old horse shrugged his shoulders and said, "Probably because he has been suppressed so badly over the years, or maybe there is some new figure in the Demon Sect who has risen to show the monkey or something in order to kill the chicken for Liwei." Saying that, he looked at Lu Chen and said, "Hey, why did you say that this broken thing of the Demon Sect has been crippled and destroyed many times, but it can survive every time, and it will die with the insects that can't be killed." ”
Lu Chen was silent, and after a long while, his voice suddenly lowered a little, and said, "Probably because the people in there have very simple brains, and they are so convinced of some things that we don't understand." ”
Lao Ma's face changed slightly, he looked at Lu Chen's face, and then coughed, but he diverted the topic, and said: "By the way, there is news from Lao Liu's side that he has already handed over everything from Xiancheng, and he will officially retire Tiannian within a few days and return to his original sect." ”
Lu Chen nodded and said, "That's not bad, Lao Liu is a good person." ”
The two chatted in the tavern, just like countless times in the past, in this ordinary mountain village, the two of them looked very ordinary, staying in the most ordinary corner of the world, living an ordinary and leisurely life.
When it was time to leave at noon, when Lu Chen was about to walk out of the door, he suddenly heard Lao Ma suddenly say something, "You seem to have a good complexion these days." ”
Lu Chen's body paused, smiled without speaking, and walked out.
He walked all the way back to the grass hut at the foot of the tea mountain, and after closing the door, he sat cross-legged on the bed, and in a short time, in his sea of qi, the newly reborn but most ordinary Five Elements Divine Disk slowly emerged. Lu Chen's face was calm and waveless, just quietly breathing, and gradually, a trace of extremely subtle spiritual power appeared in his qi veins, slowly swimming.
