Chapter 18: It Was Him
"It's actually a bloodline awakening!" A slightly familiar voice came into Jiang Hua's ears, and before he could think about it, Han Feng said in a low voice, "Zhao Ping, Zhou Tong, protect that woman!" After saying that, he tacitly rushed towards the mutated tiger with He Ming, but the black-robed man who spoke out about the origin of the tiger did not make any move, but after glancing at Jiang Hua with an imperceptible gaze, his calm gaze took on a little surprise.
Jiang Hua intently observed Han Feng and He Ming's movements, for those who would soon become enemies, he had already begun to learn to understand the other party's methods.
Han Feng and He Ming used their mental techniques when they were attacking together, and the two pairs of crimson flame palms slapped at the mutant tiger in unison, and the flames on Han Feng's palms became even more fiery and violent.
The mutated tiger moved more quickly, Jiang Hua only felt a flower in front of him, and a phantom had rushed to He Ming's feet, He Ming was shocked, turned his palm down to block, but blocked the air, the tiger's sharp teeth had bitten into his thigh, seeing that He Ming was about to become crippled, Han Feng's palms had arrived in time and slapped on the tiger's waist fiercely. The tiger was just shot off the side, He Ming saved his leg, but the expected situation did not appear, the tiger was unscathed, and even the blazing flames did not hurt it in the slightest. Han Feng was stunned, and he couldn't believe it, although his "Flame Devouring Skill" had only been practiced to one level, he was already at the peak of the initial level of the Qi Acceptance Realm, which was much more powerful than He Ming, the junior intermediate level, but he couldn't even leave a trace on this monster, the bloodline awakening was so powerful, this strength had not only increased by one or two times, but I was afraid that it was a little close to the middle level of the Qi Acceptance Realm. Han Feng was still a little unconvinced, "It must have been fast just now, and it didn't hit it solidly." ”
The tiger that was hit by Han Feng became even more furious, shifting the target, and the phantom had already attacked in front of Han Feng in a flash, Han Feng was still stunned, but when he heard a "bang", a phantom rolled away again.
"You are not its opponent, although its bloodline awakening failed, but the strength of the improvement is more than ten times, retreat to the back. An unquestionable voice came from behind Han Feng.
Han Feng was a little annoyed, Huo Di turned around, and was about to open his mouth to reprimand, but when he saw that it was the mysterious "guide" who claimed to be a disciple of his own sect, he swallowed the words on his lips again. This black-robed man is the task connector assigned by the valley master, and he has been in the "Divine Flame Valley" for more than 20 years, although he is not often in the valley, but all the middle and low-level disciples know him, but this person is wearing a red-level disciple black robe, but he has never seen him, and he doesn't know whether it is the valley master or the great elder. So along the way, Han Feng has always maintained due courtesy to this person.
Seeing that Han Feng was a little unwilling, the black-robed man snorted lightly, ignored Han Feng, and walked straight to the mutated tiger that was slapped away by his palm.
Jiang Hua heard a familiar voice again, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it, "Is it someone I met on Earth before? It can't be! Who could it be?" Jiang Hua still hadn't separated himself from the chaos between the past and the present.
Han Feng and the other Divine Flame Valley disciples were all looking at the black-robed man's right hand hanging down his side with incredible eyes, and the demonic pure white flames were jumping happily around the white palm.
"This ...... This...... How is this possible?" Han Feng only felt that his mouth was dry, and his heart was about to burst as if it was uncomfortable, and several other black-robed people felt the same way, as if the white flames were burning in their hearts.
"It's actually white-level! It's actually an elder!" Han Feng broke out in a cold sweat, he was almost about to scold the elder just now, thinking of the terrible place, Han Feng's legs trembled like chaff. The one who can use the white flame in the Divine Flame Valley must be an elder-level senior, at least they are all high-level cultivators of the Naqi Realm, and there is such a powerful mysterious elder-level figure in the valley who pretends to be an ordinary disciple and is accompanied by a few of his own, Han Feng doesn't know whether to cry or laugh.
Worthy of being a high-level cultivator of the Naqi Realm, the mutant tiger fell under the flames of the mysterious black-robed man without a few flutters. Seeing that the elder who had eliminated the tiger in three or two clicks in his stunned mind walked towards him, Han Feng knelt down on one knee with a thud, bowed his head and said respectfully, "Disciple Han Feng, meet the elder, forgive the disciple for having no eyes, please punish the elder!" He Ming and the three of them also knelt down behind Han Feng with a rolling belt, and even confessed their guilt.
The black-robed man said softly, "Get up! Now that you all know, let's get to know each other officially." As he spoke, he slowly removed the cloak and hat from his head, revealing a kind face.
"My name is Xia Lei, the Hall Master of the Shadow Hall. ”
"It turned out to be him!" Han Feng had heard the name of this person early, the former hall master of the Divine Flame Valley Shadow Hall, and the uncle of the valley master Xia Yan. The Shadow Hall is responsible for the external intelligence collection of the Divine Flame Valley, and everyone in the hall does not show their true faces, all of them are characters who see the beginning and the end of the dragon, it is because Han Feng has never seen Xia Lei, only heard that he disappeared more than ten years ago, and the current hall master is the original deputy hall master promoted by the new valley lord Xia Yan after the abdication of the Great Elder.
"Disciples Han Feng, He Ming, Zhao Ping, and Zhou Tong have seen the Xia Hall Master!" Han Feng and the four of them also took off their hats and saluted Xia Lei again.
Not to mention the fact that everyone in the Divine Flame Valley here recognized their relatives and saluted, let's just say that Jiang Hua's mind was still on the remains of the tiger with white flames in the distance, but when Xia Lei took off his hat, Jiang Hua's eyes never left Xia Lei's face. From the moment he saw this face, Jiang Hua's doubts about this matter instantly became clear. Jiang Hua was suddenly a little dazed, and his heart ached, but he didn't know why it hurt, not to talk about trust and betrayal, and not for the villagers who died tragically, after all, it was not this person who killed people, so why was it? Jiang Hua found that he was a little overrational at this time, he should rush up and scold and reprimand instead of being indifferent here. Of course, Mu Qingyun also saw that face, her lips were pursed, her eyes were resentful, but there was a look of relief on her face, "It's him! It turned out to be him, it's really not Jiang Hua......"
Xia Lei exchanged a few words of greeting with the disciples of the Flame Valley of the Gods, arranged for Han Feng to check the remains of the fierce tiger, and came to Jiang Hua by himself. "Brother Jiang, we're meeting again!" Seeing that Jiang Hua didn't react, Xia Lei said to himself, "Thank you, brother, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have known that the person I had been looking for for more than ten years was the one who saved me." ”
When Jiang Hua heard this, he finally knew why his heart hurt. The person who came was his big brother of "motorcycles" - Harley. Harley's words were like a needle pricking Jiang Hua's heart, "It turns out that everything is because of himself, not because he is too talkative, how could Harley know that the person who saved him was a woman who knew how to heal, and how could he suspect that there was a foreigner like himself in the village and directly found Mu Qingyun." At that time, Harley told himself that the people here were very xenophobic, and he was so surprised that he almost blurted out that there was a foreign woman like himself here, although he couldn't help but say it in the end, but with everything Harley is showing now, how can he not find out the truth from a little clue?"
"It's me, it's me who hurt Sister Mu, it's me who hurt Jibu, and the more than 100 villagers who died tragically......" Jiang Hua felt that he had some difficulty breathing.
Looking at Harley who was smiling and groaning, Jiang Hua really wanted to slap himself a few times, and guilt and hatred filled his chest.
"Officially, my name is Xia Lei, and I'm from the Valley of the Divine Flame. ”
"Charley, Harley, hehehehe......"
Jiang Hua didn't know how to respond, and scolded and cursed, as if he was not qualified.
"Why?" Jiang Hua suddenly wanted to know the reason urgently.
"This is the secret of this sect, I can't tell Brother Jiang. ”
"I'll tell you why they arrested me. Mu Qingyun hugged Jibu, her face regained her calm, no one could see what she was thinking, she said to Jiang Hua indifferently.
Xia Lei didn't stop Mu Qingyun, he only knew a little bit about the detailed reasons, he wanted to find an opportunity to force Mu Qingyun to open his mouth halfway, and when he heard Mu Qingyun take the initiative to say, he also listened to it happily.
"They arrested me because they wanted to get an ancestral item from the Mu family. ”
"What's that!?" said Xia Lei's tone urgently. Jiang Hua just stared at Mu Qingyun quietly and didn't ask.
Mu Qingyun didn't pay attention to Xia Lei's question, but looked at Jiang Hua, and slowly continued, "The Mu family is the largest family in Aoki City in Yuanji Prefecture, and it is also the lord of Aoki City, and Aoki City was also built in the hands of the Mu family. The clan has been passed down from generation to generation, the ancestors were originally a Jianghu Langzhong, and they had a treasure by chance, and the treasure can be cut down to wash the marrow to promote cultivation, and there is also a pharmacopoeia hidden in it, which records countless curative prescriptions and Dan classics. The ancestors relied on this treasure to cultivate from a martial artist to the foundation building realm in a few years, and became a Danshi, and since then they have spread out and built cities and states. But everything must be reversed, the ancestor suddenly disappeared more than 2,000 years ago, the clan was in turmoil, and the clansmen fought with each other for nearly a hundred years in search of the ancestors' relics. In the end, it was the ancestor of my lineage who got the relics of the ancestors, but he couldn't understand the true meaning of the treasure, and only learned some techniques for healing the sick and healing people, and the treasure also lost its magical effect in his hands, and he could no longer cut the hair and wash the marrow to improve his cultivation. Since then, the vitality of the Mu family has been greatly damaged and gradually declined. ”
"Where's the treasure, where is it now?" said Xia Lei, anxious.
"The Mu family has been passed down to my generation, and it is almost the same as an ordinary family, and there are only two medical halls in Aoki City to make a living, and no one has long known that my Mu family is the original lord of Aoki City. Mu Qingyun still ignored Xia Lei, but his tone became a little sad and angry, "Twelve years ago, I don't know where the Divine Flame Valley learned about my Mu family, and sent someone to come to the door and force my father to hand over the ancestral treasures. Shenyan Valley prides itself on being a decent family, first promising to exchange for huge profits, but my father refuses to allow it, and then he threatens it strongly, seriously injuring my father. My father passed the treasure into my hands and forced me to flee in disguise, but the people of the Divine Flame Valley relied on their self-cultivation to be advanced and neglected to guard against me and other ordinary people, and I finally escaped. On the way to escape, he met Gibb's father and Batuu. As if thinking of something beautiful, Mu Qingyun's face flushed slightly, and his tone became soothing, "The two of them secretly ran out with the clan's merchants, we went through some things together, I told him about my situation, and he decided to take me back to the clan." We hid in Tibet for two years, not daring to rush openly, for fear of being discovered by the spies of the Divine Flame Valley. However, in the end, he still couldn't escape, and in order to divert the pursuers...... "Mu Qingyun couldn't cry anymore."
