Chapter 239: A Million Years of Winter Pearls
After receiving the news, everyone did not panic, and Luo Ying did not cry and clamoring to save her father, on the contrary, she is very calm now.
Because everyone knows that this must be a game, the more anxious and panicked, the easier it is to fall for it.
After a group of people sat in the council hall and were silent for a while, Liu Hao said to Luo Ying: "Xiaoying, should we go to the great elders of your father's sect and ask them why they let this matter go?"
Luo Ying sighed and said: "This great elder, you also know the Dao, although the strength is high, but only the same, love money like life, he doesn't send troops to save people, it is estimated that he is waiting for us to find him." β
It is said that Luo Ying's father belongs to the Eastern Emperor Sect, and her father is the leader of this sect.
Their sect has a history of tens of thousands of years in the Tongtian Realm, and its foundation can be described as deep, and there is a secret in this Donghuang Sect that can stand in this Tongtian Realm where there are countless strong people for thousands of years.
This secret is that their great elder, which can also be said to be enshrined, has unfathomable strength, which can be said to be comparable to Liu Hao's strength back then.
Therefore, in the Eastern Emperor Sect, the most prestigious and powerful person is not the sect leader, but this great elder, but this great elder has a problem, that is, he loves money and treasures, as long as it is a rare thing in the world, he likes it.
With his strength, he has collected a lot of countless treasures in this world, so it is a little difficult to come up with something that satisfies him.
This time, the sect leader of the Eastern Emperor Sect was arrested, but he did not move, there were only two reasons, one was that he accepted the treasure of the group of people who captured the sect leader, or he was waiting for someone to come and give him the treasure.
Whoever sends the baby is good, he will definitely help someone, this person is really scheming.
But Liu Hao is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and with the conspiracy of Tianfan over the years, he has seen the intrigue too much.
So when Luo Ying said that most of the great elders were waiting for them to give gifts, he smiled and said: "What's so difficult about this, I gave him a promise, he will definitely have to save people for us obediently, our own strength is still too weak to be exposed, as long as we are exposed, there will be trouble in the future, it is better to find some backers now." β
Luo Ying said suspiciously: "Promise? What promise is more precious than a priceless treasure?"
Luo Ying didn't say that she was worried about her father, but she was still worried about it in her heart, and now when she heard Liu Hao say this, she was a little worried in her heart.
Liu Hao stood up and stretched his waist and said: "Promise is always more precious than anything else, Luo Ying, you have to remember, in addition, as soon as this promise of mine comes out, the great elder will definitely have to cry and beg to help us, okay, don't talk nonsense, let's set off now to meet this old guy who hasn't seen him for 10,000 years." β
There are many people, so except for Liu Hao and Luo Ying, who set off, everyone else was asked to stay and watch the house.
The place where they live now is about three days away from the Eastern Emperor Sect, and that is still calculated according to their current strength, if they are ordinary people, they will have to walk for at least about a year.
The two of them walked for two days, and they were soon about to reach the city where the Eastern Emperor Sect was located.
And just as they were about to step into the realm of the Eastern Emperor Sect, they found countless suspicious people.
It seems that the gang that captured Luo Ying's father also guessed that Liu Hao would come to find this great protector, so they all planted eyeliner in this generation.
The purpose is very simple, it must not let Liu Hao see this great protector, and the other is that if Liu Hao appears, they are likely to arrest people directly, or even kill Liu Hao.
Among these people, they saw a familiar face, and that was Chen Tiannan.
Seeing these people, Liu Hao took Luo Ying to a big tree and hid it, and the two immediately discussed countermeasures.
Luo Ying's proposal was to break through the void and infiltrate the Eastern Emperor Sect, and then, logically, he would be able to meet the Great Elder.
But Liu Hao was against it, because he knew that most of the space around here had been locked by people, and as long as they broke through the void, they would be discovered immediately.
After thinking about it, Liu Hao had a bold idea, and this idea was to walk in with a swagger!
And when he said why he wanted to do this, Luo Ying also readily agreed.
The first step of Ji Lu's plan was that the two of them dressed up in disguise, made up two small guys, and then they found a few gift boxes, and just like that, they headed in the direction of the Eastern Emperor Sect.
If someone stopped them along the way, they said that they were sending treasures to the Great Elder of the Eastern Emperor Sect.
Everyone knows that the Great Elder of the Dao likes treasures, so it shouldn't arouse people's suspicions, and in terms of the strength of the Great Elder, how many people dare to rob the treasures he gave him?
So they walked quite smoothly this way, and they were about to reach the Eastern Emperor Sect, but at this time, something happened.
It turned out that there were quite a few people who were already suspicious of them, but considering that they were sending treasures to the Great Elder, they didn't ask about it.
Now seeing that they were about to enter the Eastern Emperor Sect, one of them sent someone to stop them and asked them who had given the treasure to the Great Elder.
When Liu Hao saw the person in front of him asking himself, he said coaxingly: "Do you have the right to ask this question? Who sent something to the Great Elder of the Eastern Emperor Sect, and he still wants to inform you?"
After listening to Liu Hao's answer, one of them stepped forward, and after showing his emperor-level strength, he said to Liu Hao: "Boy, in the Tongtian Realm, strength can let us know everything, if you don't have strength, there will be no secrets, if you know each other, hurry up and tell us who gave the treasure to the Great Elder of the Eastern Emperor Sect, or break your legs!"
And after Liu Hao saw a person behind him, he was still a little lacking in confidence, and immediately said very seriously: "This is something for the Great Elder of the Eastern Emperor Sect, are you sure you want to grab it?"
When the man heard that he had distorted the facts, but now that there were many of them, and the Great Elder of the Eastern Emperor Sect was not there, he boldly said, "If you don't tell me, who gave this thing to the old fellow of the Eastern Emperor Sect, I will rob it, what will you do?"
Liu Hao said to the person who appeared behind the man silently: "Great Elder, this person is going to rob the treasure that was given to you, but you heard it with your own ears." β
After listening to Liu Hao's words, the man's face turned pale suddenly, and he turned around with difficulty, just in time to see the Great Elder of the Eastern Emperor Sect who had appeared behind their group of people at some point!
Seeing him, the man immediately put on a flattering smile, came to the front of the Great Elder and said, "Elder, I..."
Before he finished speaking, he received a slap from the Great Elder, this slap did not gather true qi, otherwise with the strength of this Great Elder, he would definitely be able to knock his head away at once.
After this slap, the Great Elder said coldly, "The treasure given to me, are you really planning to rob it?"
The man was slapped in the face, and after listening to his question, he immediately fell to the ground, trembling and said: "Great Elder, you misunderstood, you misunderstood, we dare to rob your things there, we just threatened that kid just now, don't mind, adults don't remember villains..."
The Great Elder had already been tired of hearing this set of words, kicked him and scolded: "Get out of here! The next time I hear you say robbing, I'll screw your head off!"
The man thought that if he said something like that just now, he would definitely not be killed, but he would have to be half dead, but now he was only slapped in the face, and he was only kicked, and he told himself to get out.
He was excited for a while, and hurriedly agreed, and the people he took with him ran away without a trace.
After the group of people left, the Great Elder came to Liu Hao and was about to speak, but Liu Hao was the first to say: "The Great Elder hasn't seen you for many years, your temper is much better, if you heard someone say to rob your treasure ten thousand years ago, it is estimated that if you don't kill him, you will have to break his neck, right?"
When the Great Elder saw that this little guy dressed as a person seemed to know himself, and he could still tell his temper ten thousand years ago, he couldn't help but look at him carefully.
After a few glances, his face changed to a smile, and then he said: "Who should I be, it turned out to be the great sect master of the Hao Ying Sect, didn't I hear that you died a long time ago? β
Liu Hao smiled and said, "Great Elder, your mouth still hasn't changed, it's as poisonous as before, you've seen an old friend, what's the matter?"
The Great Elder didn't say anything, and directly led them towards the main gate of the Holy See of the Eastern Emperor Sect.
Entering the Holy See, through the corridors, they came to a door, and then the Grand Elder opened the door and led them inside.
Once inside, the Grand Elder motioned for them to sit casually, and then found a place to sit down himself.
When everyone was seated, the Great Elder spoke, " Say, when I think of looking for me, there must be something going on, but I will first say okay, let me save your father-in-law, I won't do it, first, the sect he opened has nothing to do with our Holy See, so his sect was destroyed, people were arrested, it is very likely to be a personal grudge, the Holy See will not respond and help in this regard, second, I will also tell you the truth, the group that captured your father-in-law, everyone knows it, originally I wanted to make a move, but they gave me a treasure, this treasure I have been seeking for many years, with this thing, I decided this matter, I will not interfereγ β
Liu Hao said with a smile: "The Great Elder is really fast-talking, he can say whatever he wants, unlike those villains, I have always liked your temper, but you also know that since we came to you, we naturally brought treasures, and you think that the treasures sent to you by the Nine Gates are more precious than the ones I gave you?"
As soon as his words came out, they immediately aroused the interest of the Great Elder, but after thinking for a while, he still said: "You should not be able to come up with something more precious than this treasure they gave me, do you know what they gave me? Millions of years of deep-sea winter pearls, I believe you also understand the value of this thing, right?"
This deep-sea winter pearl, of course, is produced in the deep sea, and the shells in the sea are generally pearls, but this winter pearl is very rare, because its formation conditions are not in the shell, but in the mouths of some animals.
There are zooplankton on the bottom of the sea, and they move slowly through the sea, and sometimes they are inadvertently caught by other fish in their mouths with small pebbles and sand grains.
With impurities in their mouths, of course, they have a way to get rid of them, but some stones or sand grains, after being unintentionally put into their mouths, just stuck in places that they cannot eliminate, over time, after the saliva in their mouths, will form winter pearls.
The creatures in the sea also live a life of the jungle, and many fish feed on these plankton, so even if these plankton have this winter pearl in their mouths, the fish don't know what to do, they will still prey on these plankton.
Therefore, in order to find the winter pearls, people must dig them out of their mouths before the fish eat the plankton containing them, which is very valuable.
