Early in the morning, the sky was still dark, and a figure in black came to the riverside hotel. It's Tae-yan!

After glancing around, he quietly infiltrated the hotel.

He didn't want people from all factions to know that they had come to find the Lord today, and if he poked it out now, he didn't know what the follow-up events would cause.

As soon as I entered the hotel, a pretty short-haired woman appeared in front of me. It's that Qin Xiaoyou!

"Taizhang Sect, what's the matter with visiting so early?" She asked softly. But there is also vigilance.

"I'm looking for the Lord to fulfill yesterday's agreement." Taiyan replied.

He didn't know if this woman knew about the transaction between himself and the lord, let alone say more, so he said so vaguely.

Qin Xiaoyou thought for a moment, then invited him in, took the elevator, and came to the upper floor where the Venerable Lord was.

"Please come in, the Lord has been waiting for a long time!" Qin Xiaoyou chuckled.

"Waiting a long time? Does this mean that the Lord had already calculated that I would come, and informed her that she would wait for me at the door? Tai Yan was suspicious, and he was even more in awe of the Lord's supernatural powers. Thinking of this, he secretly clenched his fists, and the treasure in his palm could give him a sense of security.

After a deep groan, Tae-yan pushed the door and entered.

The white-haired lord stood in front of the window, drinking tea and lighting incense on the table. There is also an opera that I don't know how.

Seeing this, Tai Yan thought to himself, this lord is really a person who lives in the old era. I like old things.

Hearing him enter the door, the Lord turned around and greeted him with a smile.

"What an honor it is to be in charge of the Tai Sect!" The Lord smiled.

"Tai Yan, meet the Lord!" Tai Yan hurriedly saluted respectfully.

No matter how wary he was in his heart, he still had all his support before he turned his face. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the master.

His Holiness gladly accepted his salute, and immediately raised his hand slightly to help him up.

"Tai Zhangjiao, what are you doing so politely. You are now in a high position and in charge of a faction, I envy you! The Lord shook his head.

"Tai Yan, all thanks to the support of the Lord. Never forget the grace of the Lord! All the time, I am grateful for the great kindness of the Lord! The Venerable Lord is simply Tae-yan's reborn parents! Taiyan said again.

This made the lord laugh, and his heart said that this guy was too much to tout and pat his ass. But it's normal to think about it. Because he must be pinning everything on himself now, for fear that he will abandon him.

"I don't know what you think when the Taizhang Sect comes?" The Venerable Lord immediately asked.

Tai Yan immediately respectfully took out the jade pendant, and there was the needle next to it, which was the key to the jade pendant.

Seeing these two things, the Venerable Lord's pupils immediately widened, and the color of joy overflowed, but he quickly pressed it down.

"The Lord ordered his subordinates to look for the key, and sure enough, they found it! Among the eight hundred and sixty-four treasures in the treasure house, this is the only one that responds to this jade pendant and shines brightly. Hopefully, the subordinates didn't find a mistake! Taiyan told the truth.

The Lord pretended to be calm and took it, and put it in the drawer of the table seemingly casually, and smiled appreciatively at him.

"That's it. The Taizhang Sect really lives up to my trust. It seems that I chose you in the first place, but it was the right choice! The Lord smiled and patted him on the shoulder.

Tae-yan was smiling on the surface, like a flattering minister. In the bottom of my heart, there was a thousand angers. If it weren't for your choice, I wouldn't have done this father-killing thing! The root of everything is because of your temptation!

He clenched his fists, and just waited for the lord to attack, and then immediately launched the sword in his hand, and fought to the death with the lord! With this sword, he has at least thirty percent hope to fight him without dying.

This sword is his family's ancestral sword. Because the cost of use is too great, the successive generations of masters can only use it when they are facing a crisis of life and death of the sect. Last time, his father Taeguang, perhaps didn't think too much about it at all, so he killed him directly. So much so that he didn't think of taking out this divine sword, which led to defeat and death.

And now, Tai Yan doesn't care about the price of this sword at all, as long as he can help himself defeat this lord and suppress him, it doesn't matter what the price is.

After last night, he has completely calmed down and understood. Repent. But it was too late. Today, nothing is used. The only way to do our best to protect ourselves and balance this lord from being abandoned by him. And mastering this divine sword means that even if this lord plans to abandon himself as an outcast, he has the ability to break the net!

At this moment, Tai Yan had an impulse, and he wanted this lord to do it on the spot! He just wants to attack this person at the moment and fight to the death! Even if it turns out to be dead.

However, the Venerable Lord only smiled faintly.

"Tai Zhangjiao, seems to be a little nervous?" The Lord asked.

"Nope. The subordinates are just thinking about how to complete the things assigned by the lord in the future. Tai Yan said flatteringly.

"Haha......" The Lord laughed when he heard this.

"Taizhang is such a funny person. I really like you. The Lord smiled. This laughter made Tae-yan very uncomfortable, but he had to endure it.

"Taizhang also knows that when I first arrived in Lincheng, my foundation was shallow. And the seven major factions are deeply rooted and intertwined here. Where can I easily shake alone. ”

"So, if I want to change something here, I need some help. Tai Zhangjiao, you are my best helper and ally! The Lord looked at him deeply.

"If you can be so valued by the Lord, in the future, Taiyan will definitely die!" Tae-yan immediately bowed down.

The Venerable Lord immediately helped him up, and looked very solemn, "Taizhang Sect, there is no need for this in the future. Since I have given you my strength, I represent my trust. From now on, you will be my right-hand man to me! ”

Tai Yan didn't believe what he said, but on the surface he was still very excited.

"Taiyan He De, how can he ......"

"From the first time I saw you, I saw that you had an extraordinary quality that really attracted me and made me admire. Trust me, you are someone who can achieve great things. With my help, you will be able to soar and achieve great things in the future! And I, with your help, can also complete the layout of this city. You and I complement each other! Mutually successful! The Lord said with a smile.

Tai Yan looked at him in horror, and for a while, he was a little suspicious.

What did this lord think in his heart?

Could it be that you really value yourself, so you give yourself the strength to do that? More than just pure exploitation?

He shook his head, he couldn't figure it out, and even more felt that it was impossible. Right now, he must be putting on a show!

"Tai Yan, I will definitely do everything in the future to help the Lord achieve the grand plan of hegemony!" Tae-yan said immediately.

"It's natural. With the help of Taizhang, this is naturally no problem! The Lord smiled.

……

Walking out of the hotel, Tae-yan breathed a deep sigh of relief. looked at the divine sword hidden in the palm of his hand, which had shrunk ten times, the Jade King Sword, and turned his head to look at the hotel. In my heart, it is still difficult to calm down.

Worried about being seen here, he immediately moved, and jumped out of a few thousand meters in a flash. That's why I don't have to worry about being seen.

"What the hell does he mean?"

Originally, Tai Yan firmly believed that the reason why this lord found him was to use him. Let yourself help him get this treasure. Once you get the treasure, you will abandon yourself casually.

But this time, after handing him the treasure, he didn't have any intention of getting rid of himself. On the contrary, he praised himself and even cultivated himself more in the future.

This made him even more suspicious.

What does this mean? Exactly, for what?

Could it be that, as he said, at the beginning, it was because he took a fancy to himself and wanted to help himself?

Tai Yan shook his head suddenly, this is absolutely impossible.

This Lord is not that kind of person. It is absolutely impossible to really be like the legend, suddenly fancy a person, and then want to teach him divine skills, desperate to help him succeed. That's simply not realistic for the Lord.

"Perhaps, there is another possibility. That is, I still have value for him. I'm not at the point of being abandoned. He was able to use me and get something more. That's why he didn't get rid of me right away. And you need to continue to appease me......" Taiyan thought intently.

If you think about it, this may really be the most likely.

It should be that there is a deeper mind behind this lord. He also wanted to continue to use himself, to do some of the rest of the things, to get some of the rest.

And getting the key to this jade pendant is only the first step. So, of course, he wouldn't kill his own pawn that would be useful later on after only the first step.

And, in order for this unsettled pawn to continue to do things for him, and to abandon his guard, of course, he needs to appease himself with such hypocritical words. to achieve the goal.

"But you might be wrong. I'm not that simple! I may be stupid, but I'm not an idiot. Of course, it will not be at your mercy. With this divine sword, I won't be afraid of you! ”

"You're using me, and I'm using you! In any case, with your power, I will not lose! I'm also using you to help me rule the sect and better stabilize my position and power! Tae Yan sneered.

Perhaps, as they said before, the two sides are mutually successful. In another way, it's to take advantage of each other.

And with the Excalibur, a treasure that can give him extraordinary power, Taeyan will not be so flustered. Moreover, this is a hole card, which is also unknown to the lord. When the time comes, once the opponent wants to eradicate himself, then he can take out this hole card and give him a backhand blow! When the time comes, he will have to peel off the skin if he doesn't die!

Tae Yan sneered and clenched his fists. The divine sword in the palm of his hand has become a treasure that he relies on. This is also worthy of the ancestral sword of the Tai family. It has guarded the sect for four hundred years, and now, in its own hands, it can allow itself to have the ability to counter this lord!

"Ancestor bless, let me Taiyan, and finally win this lord!" Tae Yan thought to himself.
