Chapter 273: Survival in the Cracks
Great Elder Xu Linxian returned to the private room, Tang Chen was still there, and it seemed that he was waiting for him to come back.
"Tang Chen, what is the purpose of Zhou Fa and the others coming here today?" Xu Linxian sat down at the table and asked with a bit of thought.
Tang Chen seemed to be thinking about something, and when he heard Xu Linxian asking, he suddenly looked at Xu Linxian and replied, "It's not very clear what they want to do, but it's certain that they are definitely not here to apologize." ”
After a pause, he turned to ask Xu Linxian: "Great Elder, if it were you, what would you do if an elder of this sect was killed by a little-known small force?"
Xu Linxian thought for a while and replied: "Those who can become elders, not to mention the strength of a first-order star king, such a person, here in the wasteland, can already be regarded as a real powerhouse, and it is basically impossible for a little-known small force to have the ability to kill them." If this happens, I will be very confused and shocked, so I must find out the situation and prepare for the next move. ”
Speaking of this, Xu Linxian suddenly came to his senses and asked, "You mean, the real purpose of Zhou Fa and the others is to find out about our situation?"
Tang Chen nodded and replied, "I think this is very likely. ”
Xu Linxian nodded silently, this didn't seem to be difficult to guess, but he couldn't quite understand why he didn't feel this intention in Zhou Yifa and the others, but it seemed to have another purpose?
After being silent for a moment, Xu Linxian still said this doubt in his heart.
Tang Chen couldn't help but smile and said, "It seems that the Great Elder has the same feelings as me! This is also what I can't figure out, so it can be seen that Zhou Yifa and the others must have other purposes." ”
Xu Linxian nodded and reminded: "As the so-called those who come are not good, and those who are good are not coming, we killed the elders of the Holy Dan Sect, they can't give up, the bright and the dark will make some moves, you must be careful!"
"Thank you Grand Elder for reminding me, I'll be careful. Tang Chen replied, he already had a combat power comparable to that of a second-order Star Emperor, and there were soul beast servants with the peak strength of the Star Emperor by his side to guard him day and night, and he was really not too worried about his own safety.
......
Zhou Yifa and the others returned to the guest room of the Beihuang Building with some frustration.
Elder Liu sat down at the table angrily and shouted, "That Tang Chen is really ignorant, if it weren't for the Star Emperor powerhouse behind him, I really want to slap him to death!"
"Who said it wasn't...... Zhou Zhou sat down dejectedly, poured himself a cup of tea, drank it all, and said, "Elder Liu, let's stop talking angry, let's think about how to complete the task of the hall master." ”
Elder Hu sat down opposite Elder Liu and said, "I look at that Tang Chen, he is definitely not more than twenty years old, I didn't expect him to be so shrewd and difficult, even those of us who have experienced the world can't bargain in his hands, he is indeed a talent!"
Elder Liu glared at Elder Hu angrily and said, "Elder Hu, when has this been, you still have the leisure to grow the ambition of others, do you think we can take refuge in him?"
Elder Hu snorted coldly and said, "This is not called to increase the morale of others, but to remind you that if you want to deal with Tang Chen, you must first know yourself and your opponent, otherwise you will make fatal mistakes like Elder Wu."
As for taking refuge in him, Elder Liu, do you think it's possible? No matter how good Tang Chen is, he is only from a small sect in the wasteland, and he can't compare with those real Tianjiao of my sect at all. What's more, the small Mountain and River Sect, although somehow there are one or two Star Emperor powerhouses, can it be compared to our sect, can it protect us?"
Elder Liu snorted coldly in displeasure and muttered, "I originally said you, you are good, but it came to my head......"
Zhou Yifa hurriedly stopped the quarrel between the two and said: "Don't quarrel anymore, let's find a way quickly! If I am not mistaken, the hall master should soon ask us for the result, and we can't delay this matter for a long time." ”
Hearing this, Elder Liu and Elder Hu were silent in unison, and their faces showed solemn expressions.
After being silent for a while, Elder Hu asked, "Elder Zhou, do you have any good ideas?"
Zhou Fa let out a long sigh and replied, "We definitely can't escape this matter, unless we don't want to go back." ”
Elder Hu and Elder Liu nodded secretly in agreement.
Zhou Yifa continued: "However, we can't go head-to-head with Shanhe Sect, and a hard run will definitely be a dead end......
Elder Liu couldn't help but interject: "You can't escape, you can't hit it hard, and you have to catch Tang Chen, isn't it a pipe dream?"
Zhou Yifa shook his head and said, "With us, don't think about catching Tang Chen." Our goal now is not to arrest Tang Chen, but how to serve the sect without sacrificing our own lives. ”
Elder Hu's eyes lit up suddenly, and he said, "Oh, I seem to understand!Elder Zhou, you mean, we have to behave ......."
Zhou Yifa hurriedly put his index finger in front of his mouth, made a silent movement, and said: "You just need to understand it in your hearts, so you don't have to say it, lest the wall have ears." ”
Elder Hu nodded, immediately closed his mouth, and said no more.
However, Elder Liu didn't understand anything, he looked at Elder Hu suspiciously, then at Zhou Fa, and said, "What kind of dumb riddle you played, I didn't understand it at all......
Zhou Yifa replied with a sincere face: "Elder Liu, it doesn't matter if you don't understand, just advance and retreat with us at that time." ”
Elder Liu thought about it for a while, and felt that there was really no problem with this, anyway, as long as he followed the two of them, and even found that the situation was not right, he could change his mind temporarily, so he nodded and said, "Okay, what you do, I will follow what you do." ”
Zhou Yifa was silent for a moment, and then said: "There are so many Star Emperor powerhouses here in the wasteland at once, this is intolerable to the major forces outside the region, if my expectations are not bad, the sect will soon join forces with other forces to send Star Emperor powerhouses to deal with the Star Emperor powerhouses in the wasteland, we must pay close attention to their whereabouts." ”
Elder Hu nodded again and again when he heard this, and looked at Zhou Yifa's gaze, showing a little appreciation from time to time.
Elder Liu was still confused, he wanted to ask carefully, but when he saw that Zhou Fa had taken out a communication star, he had to keep his mouth shut for the time being.
Zhou Fa hesitated for a while, and then activated the communication star device to send a message to a certain subordinate, and after connecting, he said: "You go to the vicinity of the teleportation array of the City Lord's Mansion now and keep an eye on it, once you find that the sect has sent someone over, notify me immediately, and we will receive them well." ”
