Not long after, Great Elder Xu Linxian also rushed to the central market.

He gave a brief explanation of Tang Chen's disappearance to the high-ranking star king who was guarding here in the Northern Desert Town, and only after several twists and turns was he allowed to enter the scene of the accident.

Xu Linxian and several elders entered the area where the Qingxin Xiaolou was located, and examined it very carefully, not letting go of any clues, but they did not find any clues related to Tang Chen.

In addition to bloodstains, the scene was littered with destroyed bricks and wood fragments, and nothing else was left that could prove identity, such as clothing, star weapons, etc.

Therefore, it is almost impossible to uncover any valuable information from these limited, largely useless clues......

After tossing like this for most of the day, Xu Linxian and the others couldn't even determine whether Tang Chen was alive or dead.

"Great Elder, tomorrow will be the great competition of the sect, but now that Tang Chen is nowhere to be found, what should I do?" an elder asked, listening to the tone, obviously caring about the sect Dabi more than caring about Tang Chen's safety.

Xu Linxian glanced at the elder with some displeasure, and replied in an unquestioning tone: "You don't have to participate in the sect competition, but Tang Chen must find it!"

Hearing this, all the elders present couldn't help but change their colors.

None of them are the elders of the Mountain and River Palace, they don't know the core secrets of the sect, they don't know what Tang Chen means to the sect, in their hearts, Tang Chen is just a very outstanding disciple of the sect, at best, he is the first core disciple, that's all.

Therefore, they didn't think that Tang Chen could be compared with the great comparison of the sect that was related to the rise and fall of the sect.

What they didn't expect was that the Great Elder would say such a thing, which obviously put Tang Chen in a much more important position than the Great Sect Sect!

"Great Elder, I'm afraid this is not appropriate, right? Although Tang Chen is excellent, he is only a disciple after all, and he has disappeared, we can't give up the sect because of him, right, in this way, for the sect, the loss is too great......

Some elders questioned, and there was a slight dissatisfaction in his tone.

Xu Linxian snorted coldly and reprimanded: "You are a rat-eyed man! Have you ever thought about why the other party chose to attack Tang Chen instead of others? Is it because Tang Chen is easier to deal with?

Obviously not, but because they know that Tang Chen's importance to our Mountain and River Sect is irreplaceable by others, as long as they deal with Tang Chen, they can deal an immeasurable blow to our Mountain and River Sect!"

"Isn't it an exaggeration to say this, no matter how good he is, he is still just a disciple......"

Some elders muttered unconvinced, saying that a disciple was "irreplaceable and important", which was difficult for people to accept.

Xu Linxian glared at the elder angrily and said, "It's not an exaggeration, but a lot of things, you don't know. Let's not talk too much, let's talk about the conflict between us and the Northern Wilderness City, have you ever thought about why the city lord only let us lose money, but didn't let us pay for our lives?"

"What does the Great Elder mean is that there is Tang Chen's merit in this?" an elder couldn't help but ask.

Xu Linxian didn't answer, but asked, "Otherwise, what do you think? Do you think that just by relying on our people, just by virtue of the name of our Mountain and River Sect, you can make the city lord submit?"

All the elders immediately shut up, secretly surprised in their hearts!

The Great Elder didn't remind them, they really didn't think about it, but now that they think about it, they find that the city lord's disposition is indeed a bit unreasonable, how to say it, it seems to be too good for the Mountain and River Sect. Normally, more than forty people were killed in the Northern Wilderness City, and it was impossible for the city lord to let them go so easily.

If it was really as the Great Elder said, it was entirely because of Tang Chen's merits, then Tang Chen's methods would be too terrifying! You must know that the City Lord was a real Star Emperor powerhouse!

Seeing that everyone was silent, Xu Linxian didn't say anything more, and ordered: "Release all the powers, no matter life or death, you must find Tang Chen! As for the sect competition, let's talk about it tomorrow!"

The elders agreed, and they all hurried away, since the Great Elder said so, they must have done their best to find Tang Chen. It's just that everyone's hearts are not optimistic, the Northern Wilderness City is so big, it is not easy to find someone, and if the other party intends to hide Tang Chen's whereabouts, then the chance of finding Tang Chen will be even slimmer.

......

In the center of the Northern Wilderness City, there is a large mountain forest, although it is not too high, but it is also lush, and this is the location of the City Lord's Mansion.

After Qiu Punk brought Tang Chen back, he went directly to his retreat and ordered martial law, and no one was allowed to approach within a radius of 3,000 meters.

At this time, in the secret room of his retreat, Tang Chen's head and body were spliced together and placed on a simple stone bed.

Qiu Punk stood not far away, quietly looking at the completely lifeless body, his eyes flashing with an inexplicable light, doubt, shock, curiosity, and a little worry......

"You say, can the master really come back to life?" Qiu Punk said as if talking to himself.

Behind him, a huge brown tiger's eye occupied almost the entire doorway, and with a blink, the low roar of a white tiger was heard.

Qiu Punk nodded, stopped talking, and looked at Tang Chen quietly with the white tiger.

Tang Chen's head and body were simply stitched together by Qiu Punk in the usual way of dealing with external injuries, and some good wound medicine was applied to the wound and bandaged.

If someone who didn't know saw Tang Chen at this time, they would only think that his neck was injured, and they would never have imagined that his head was completely broken.

When Tang Chen's head and body were spliced together, a star of "Divine Phoenix Heavenly Star" appeared outside his main soul star, although it was still a little hazy, it could also be seen that it was a phoenix, with scorching flames rising around it.

And among the nine sub-soul stars, one of them also appeared outside a star sign, if outsiders can see the soul star space, it is not difficult to see that the star is a huge ancient tree, luxuriant branches, revealing a mysterious and extraordinary atmosphere, it is the "Shenmu Tianxing" star.

With the manifestation of these two major stars, the soul power and star power in these two soul stars are churning like boiling water, and after about half an hour, these soul power and star power gradually merge, forming a special star power, among which the main soul star is dark red, and the soul star where the "Shenmu Tianxing" star is located is dark cyan.

This fusion was extremely slow, and it took half an hour for only a trace to form.

Outside, in the secret room, Qiu Punk and White Tiger have been quietly watching, but they don't know what happened in Tang Chen's star soul space, in their eyes, Tang Chen's body has not changed from beginning to end.

If they weren't still able to feel the faint connection with Tang Chen's star soul, they would probably really think that Tang Chen was dead.
