Chapter 942: Showdown
Looking at Chu Yan's sincere appearance, Jiang Jingtian knew that he was not lying. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info And he doesn't have many options now, one is to agree to Zhuge Zizhi's invitation to help the Protoss from the Sea of Nirvana to attack the Nine Heavens Continent, but Jiang Jingtian can foresee that even if he can really destroy the Nine Heavens Continent, the old man will not keep his promise and let go of the Youzhou Continent.
The other path may seem risky, but it has a better chance of survival. That is to unite Chu Yan and fight against the Sea of Nirvana. Jiang Jingtian never liked to be threatened, plus he was calculated by others, and Chu Yan told him the truth without concealment, so he thought about it for a long time and decided to give it a go, the big deal was death, and there could be no worse result than this.
"Yes, that unilateral card was indeed given to them by the old man, but I didn't expect them to be so insidious. ā
As he spoke, Jiang Jingtian took out a letter and handed it to Chu Yan, "This secret letter was sent by the Zhuge family not long ago, but it has been opened by the Great Elder and read it, so you can take a look at it too." ā
The content of the letter was not complicated, but it was still too shocking for the Great Elder, after all, he did not know about the Sea of Nirvana.
On the third day of the next month, Zhuge Zizhi invited Sheng Hedao, Yun Qingyao, Blood Changkong and Jiang Jingtian to gather in Huiyun River, and the old man from the Sea of Nirvana would also come in person, and everyone would discuss the plan to attack the Nine Heavens Continent.
Chu Yan closed the letter and didn't say anything, just looked at Jiang Jingtian opposite.
"The old man can't participate in this grand event now, because once they discover my injuries, I'm afraid that the Earth Emperor God Sect will be in danger. So the old man plans to let you participate, I don't know if you have the guts. ā
"It seems that the Sect Master is not going to accept the invitation of the Sea of Nirvana?"
Hearing this, Jiang Jingtian snorted coldly, "Although I am old and do not have the momentum of your young people, I have not lost my integrity and bones." Besides, does Young Master Chu think that the old man's words are credible? Will he really let go of the Youzhou Continent?"
"The leader of the sect is high, and the younger generation admires it. Chu Yan stood up and saluted.
Seeing this, Jiang Jingtian waved his hand, and then said with a straight face: "Young Master Chu, you already understand what the old man means, so let it go, don't worry, the Earth Emperor God Sect will always be your ally." ā
With these words, Chu Yan was very happy, and at the same time, he didn't expect Jiang Jingtian to be so profound, after all, this involved all the living beings in the entire Youzhou Continent, as long as there was a one-in-10,000 chance, he should not let it go.
But Jiang Jingtian believed him, in other words, the old man had already handed over the future of the Earth Emperor God Sect to Chu Yan, and this trust Chu Yan felt heavy and had been pressed on his shoulders.
Leaving the back mountain, Chu Yan planned to go to find the fifth night, and then go back to the martial arts hall. But it didn't come to pass, but the Great Elder came here.
Chu Yan's soul hypnosis could completely deceive him, so in the eyes of this old man, Chu Yan was a guy with a thin body and a cold face.
"Presumably, Your Excellency is the new Great Alchemist of our God Sect. The Great Elder laughed, "The old man is the Great Elder of the Divine Sect, but he is entangled in mundane affairs, and he has not been able to visit Your Excellency in person, so I hope you don't see it." ā
"I've seen the Great Elder. Chu Yan was neither humble nor arrogant, and returned the salute, "The Great Elder is the mainstay of the Divine Sect, under one person, above ten thousand, but today he came to visit him in person, the old man is really flattered, and he is ashamed." ā
"Your Excellency is polite, the old man has always admired capable people, especially a great alchemist like Your Excellency......"
As he spoke, the Great Elder paused and lowered his voice, "How is the Sect Master doing now, is the injury on his body better?"
"Is the sect leader injured?" Chu Yan pretended to be surprised, "I don't know about this matter. ā
Hearing this, the Great Elder smiled profoundly, "Why do you want to deceive the old man, the old man is also concerned about the sect leader's injury." Since you don't want to say it, forget it, but seeing that you are a smart person, you should understand the importance of judging the situation, and don't insist on going your own way and taking your own future. ā
These words had already been said very explicitly, and it was obvious that the Great Elder was trying to win over Chu Yan. And Chu Yan did not refuse, and hurriedly arched his hand, "What the Great Elder said is extremely true, in the future, if there is a place that needs the effectiveness of the old decay, please do not hesitate to give orders, and never postpone it in the future." ā
"Good...... In this case, your friend, the old man, is settled. ā
....................................
Back at Tian's house, Chu Yan was called to the study by Tian Zhongting, and seeing that the old couple were there, Chu Yan hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, "Grandpa, grandma, I don't know what you are looking for me?"
Ding Xiaojun smiled and said gently: "It's not a big deal, I just heard from your grandfather that you have handed over Ziyue to Yunshangtian, so I want to ask." ā
"That's it...... Grandma is afraid that Ziyue's secret will be discovered, right?"
As he spoke, Chu Yan took out a palm-sized piece of silk and handed it over.
Ding Xiaojun carefully took this piece of silk, put it away, and then smiled bitterly, saying that it was because of this inconspicuous little thing that he had been under house arrest in the clouds for decades.
"Grandma, what happened back then, can you tell me?" Chu Yan was very curious, why Ding Xiaojun left Ziyue behind and left the Tian family alone, and he didn't return for decades.
"Alas......" Ding Xiaojun sighed sadly, and thought for a long time before saying it.
It turned out that Ding Xiaojun and Tian Zhongting left Yunshangtian after they got married, and Ziyue also stayed there.
Originally, she thought that she would never have anything to do with Yun Shangtian again in this life, but the world is impermanent, not long after Tian Sijin was born, Yun Shangtian actually came, and brought Ziyue to her for safekeeping. At that time, Ding Xiaojun felt very strange, and sure enough, he found the mental method in the scabbard.
Coupled with the fact that it didn't take long for her mentor to pass away, that is, the head of the clouds and heavens at that time, Ding Xiaojun became more and more convinced that her mentor was killed by someone.
Later, after several years of investigation, Ding Xiaojun thought that Yuan Danqiong was very suspicious, but the power of Yun Shangtian was too great, and Yuan Danqiong had already succeeded to the position of sect leader at that time, so for a while, he couldn't think of any way to avenge his teacher.
Besides, Ding Xiaojun was no longer a person from the clouds at that time, and he was not qualified to take care of other people's housework, so he had to endure this breath first and slowly think of other ways.
Later, Yuan Danqiong actually wrote to Ding Xiaojun to go back, and threatened the Tian family, she had no choice, knowing that going back this time might be more auspicious, so she left Ziyue in the Tian family, and spent more than ten years like this.
After a long time, Chu Yan nodded, "Grandma, then Yuan Danqiong hasn't forced you to hand over your mind after so many years?"
"My silly boy, how could there be. ā
Ding Xiaojun shook his head with a wry smile, "She has dreamed of getting the heart method all these years, but I never gave it to her, and then Yuan Danqiong threatened me with you, but I told her that if she dared to touch the people of the Tian family, she would never think of it in her life." ā
"Yuan Danqiong knows my temper, so there is no way at all, fortunately Mingyu, you are smart enough to take out the silk in advance, otherwise you will live up to the trust of your teacher. ā
Chu Yan nodded again, but he felt a little sick in his heart, feeling that something seemed to be wrong with this matter, but he couldn't say what was wrong.
Three days later, it was the year-end exam of the martial arts hall, and everyone came to the playground, and this year's exam questions were the same as in previous years, martial arts.
The only difference is that this year's rules are different from previous years.
This year's rules are more special, first find a student to go up, wait for someone to take the initiative to challenge, win and stay, defeat and leave, if anyone can stay on the round platform to the end, it is the champion of this year's martial arts.
When Chu Yan knew the rules, he couldn't help but pout, and said in his heart Who came up with this bad idea, it was not fair at all, if someone won a few games in a row, in the end, they could only lose because of physical exhaustion.
In other words, the first person to play is the most disadvantaged, because in order to win the title, he has to knock everyone down, on the contrary, the last person to play is the most advantageous, and only need to win one game to achieve the final victory.
Sure enough, none of the students were willing to take the initiative to stand up, and the scene was extremely embarrassing, at this time, Lan Laozhen, the vice principal of the martial arts hall, got up and smiled slightly.
"I believe you already know the rules of the exam, I don't know which student is willing to be the first to play?"
"Whoever goes up first is a fool. Twilight pouted, disapproving.
After a while, seeing that no one had come forward yet, Lan Lao laughed, "The old man knows what everyone is thinking, thinks that the rules are unfair, the first to play the game suffers the most, and the defeat is decided, but on the battlefield, when fighting to the death, no one will give you time to breathe, I believe everyone knows this." ā
"Since no one wants to be the first to play, the old man will order one......" Lan Lao paused, glanced at everyone, and finally his eyes fell on Chu Yan's body.
I'll go, won't I......
Seeing that the brothers were gloating at him, Chu Yan greeted all the women of the eighteenth generation of the Lan ancestor in his heart......
But angry is angry, this face still has to be given, I saw him slowly walk up to the round platform and bow slightly, "Thank you for the principal for thinking so much, the students are grateful." ā
Lan Lao didn't seem to understand what he meant at all, so he just smiled and didn't answer.
In fact, all this was deliberately arranged, it was the Zhang family and the Li family who wanted to use this opportunity to get rid of Chu Yan, although Lan Lao disagreed, but he couldn't resist the Great Elder, so he had to compromise.
The upper part came up, and Chu Yan knew that it was useless to say anything, so he glanced at everyone, "I am not talented, fortunately, the principal favors me, I don't know which classmate came up to teach." ā
As soon as the words fell, Wang Wei jumped up and floated to the ring.
The Zhang family and the Li family had planned to let Chu Yan die at the hands of Yun Shangtian, even if it was a big offering, they wouldn't be able to do anything to them.
