Chapter 182

In fact, Xiao Zhan's familiarity with Hanging Sword Peak far surpassed Zhuang Mochou's.

Coming to the peak, Xiao Zhan frowned and said:

"It's just a small building, where do I live?"

Although the middle-aged woman was stronger than Xiao Zhan, her attitude towards Xiao Zhan was extremely respectful, and she replied softly:

"Don't worry, Childe, Miss doesn't live here."

Xiao Zhan frowned, "Then where does she live?" ”

The middle-aged woman pointed to the Jade Girl Peak opposite, "Miss lives in the Jade Girl Peak. ”

Xiao Zhan nodded, hugged his fist at the middle-aged woman, and said:

"If you have a senior, you can go back and rest."

The middle-aged woman nodded, turned around and left.

A moment later, Xiao Zhan came to a corner of the peak, lifted a large stone, and took out the Red Dragon Sword and the Aohan Sword from the pit below.

Obviously, Zhuang Mochou let himself live in Hanging Sword Peak just to prevent himself from escaping.

So can you escape now?

The answer is no.

One is that there is no chance to escape.

Second, Xiao Zhan also planned to find out the situation of the third elder Yan Long first.

Xiao Zhan's original plan was to enter the Phantom Sword Sect first, looking for an opportunity to provoke the conflict between the Phantom Sword Sect, the Famous Sword Sect and the Qingtian Sect, and it was best to let them fight.

In this way, he would have the opportunity to take away the remains of the Wasteland Domain Lord that the Phantom Sword Sect had preserved, and then take advantage of the chaos to inquire about the situation of the Third Elder Yan Long.

Unfortunately, the plan could not keep up with the changes.

Zhuang Mochou has a sentence that is very right, in the face of absolute strength, any conspiracy is useless.

If you are strong enough, how can you think about these schemes every day, where can you go and what can't you do?

Coming back to his senses, Xiao Zhan glanced at the Jade Girl Peak opposite.

At this time, the Jade Maiden Peak was pitch black.

Xiao Zhan fell into deep thought.

He couldn't see through Zhuang Mochou's woman.

Not only powerful, but also unfathomable.

Dealing with her, you can't take advantage of it anyway.

For now, he can only stay in the Qingtian Sect while probing the strength of the Third Elder Yan Long, and at the same time looking for a way to escape.

Walking into the building, Xiao Zhan meditated cross-legged, and soon entered the state of practice.

When the first rays of sunlight shone in through the window, Xiao Zhan slowly opened his eyes.

He got up and walked outside, looking at the Jade Maiden Peak opposite.

On the Jade Girl Peak, Zhuang Mochou sat cross-legged on the edge of the cliff, and the true vitality around her was condensed into substance, turning into wisps of milky white mist lingering around her.

And Zhuang Mochou's personal maid, the middle-aged woman, also ascended to the Hanging Sword Peak and said to Xiao Zhan:

"Childe, Miss, please come over."

Xiao Zhan nodded and followed her towards Jade Maiden Peak.

A moment later, Xiao Zhan climbed to the top of the Jade Maiden Peak.

Just listen to Zhuang Mochou said calmly:

"As I said yesterday, you are hiding your identity."

"So, the name Xiao Wuming is also fake, right?"

Xiao Zhan didn't deny it, but said: "Since that's the case, no matter what name I say, it may be fake, why don't my predecessors take Xiao Wuming as my real name?" ”

"It's okay," Zhuang Mochou nodded lightly, got up and looked at Xiao Zhandao:

"I'm curious how there are two people in the world who look so alike."

"You and Yin He are really not twin brothers?"

Xiao Zhan shook his head, "Before that, I didn't know what Yin He looked like at all. ”

"You'll be able to see Yin He in a few days," Zhuang Mochou walked to the stone table and sat down.

The middle-aged woman immediately brought the tea, poured a cup for Zhuang Mochou and Xiao Zhan, and then stood next to her.

Xiao Zhan was not polite, took a sip of the teacup, and said slowly:

"Caught Yoon Hyuk?"

Zhuang Mochou bowed slightly, changed the topic and asked:

"What do you think are the prospects for the development of the Heavenly Sect?"

Xiao Zhan frowned:

"Prospects? Then I'm quite curious, how big is the ambition of the Optimus Sect? ”

Zhuang Mochou did not answer Xiao Zhan's question, but continued in his own words:

"There is an elder inside the gate who said that the Qingtian Sect should focus on finding the mysterious treasure of the Wasteland."

"But whether the treasure of the barren state exists or not, no one knows so far."

Xiao Zhan didn't have any change in his expression, but a killing intent had already risen in his heart.

"There are also elders who say that the Qingtian Sect should be committed to unifying Qingzhou, or even the other three states."

"But that's almost impossible, in Zhongzhou, it's a lot stronger than the Qingtian Sect."

"Within the Heavenly Sect, there is another voice, which I think is more realistic."

Xiao Zhan frowned, "What voice?" ”

"First unify the Lingnan region, then build a defensive line with Qingfeng Ridge as the boundary, and then further occupy the area in the north of Lingnan."

Xiao Zhan chuckled: "The big forces of other states are not stupid, but I am afraid that before the Qingtian Sect can occupy the Lingnan region, it has already been seen through its ambitions and destroyed by the other three states." ”

"They will not allow a superpower to be born in Qingzhou, so that the balance of the four major states will be broken."

Zhuang Mochou nodded, "All, how do you think the Heavenly Sect should break the game?" ”

Xiao Zhan looked at Zhuang Mochou expressionlessly: "The entire Qingzhou thinks that the Qingtian Sect wants to destroy the Famous Sword Sect. ”

"But I didn't expect that the Qingtian Sect didn't take the Famous Sword Sect seriously at all, but had greater ambitions."

"I don't want to listen to nonsense," Zhuang Mochou took a sip of his wine glass, raised his eyelids and looked at Xiao Zhan: "Prove your worth, otherwise, you won't live long." ”

Xiao Zhan's face turned cold, and his tone became unfriendly.

"If the Optimus Sect is really ambitious enough, it should hide behind the scenes."

"A soldier who surrenders without a fight is the highest level."

Zhuang Mochou frowned slightly, "What about the specifics?" ”

Xiao Zhan picked up the teacup and drank it all, and said in a deep voice:

"If the Qingtian Sect does not produce a top powerhouse, it is absolutely impossible to unify Lingnan, let alone the entire Qingzhou."

"In addition, maybe when Qingzhou as a whole is facing a crisis, Qingtianzong will stand up and take the lead in resisting, maybe it will be recognized by the entire Qingzhou and take the opportunity to unify Qingzhou."

"You mean, to provoke a war between Qingzhou and the other three states?" Zhuang Mochou fell into deep thought, and he was really thinking about the feasibility of this matter.

Xiao Zhan shook his head and said, "There is no chance of winning in that way, and besides, I don't like to see the lives ruined." ”

Zhuang Mochou put the teacup on the table, and there was a trace of coercion on his body:

"So, after talking nonsense for a long time, you finally came to the conclusion that my Qingtian Sect has reached the end of its development?"

Xiao Zhan nodded, "When you want to swallow others, you will definitely be swallowed by others, this is an eternal truth." ”

"Concentrating on developing one's own strength is the only way to survive in the world."

"Didn't you just ask me about the future of the Optimus Sect?"

"If you want me to say, the only goal of the Optimus Sect is to survive in the world, develop its strength well, and enable itself to deal with all possible crises."

"Just like people, the one who lives to the end is the winner."

After listening to Xiao Zhan's words, Zhuang Mochou fell into contemplation again.

After a long time, she sighed lightly:

"The authorities are confused, and the bystanders are clear."

"Xiao Wuming, you haven't enjoyed the taste of power, that's why you can speak so frankly and naturally."

"If you reach a certain height, you will know that man will never be satisfied."

"Okay, you can go back to Hanging Sword Peak."

"Also, you forgot what I said," a flash of displeasure flashed in Zhuang Mochou's eyes, "Your eyes can't be higher than mine." ”

Xiao Zhan's face was expressionless, "Senior Zhuang, if your gaze is high enough, how can you see my eyes?" ”

Zhuang Mochou's expression was shocked, savoring the mystery contained in Xiao Zhan's words.

After a long time, she turned her head to look at Xiao Zhan, who had already walked dozens of meters away, and asked:

"Didn't you also say that day that you don't like to be looked down upon?"

Xiao Zhan's emotionless voice came:

"That's because you do look down on me like an ant."

"It has nothing to do with your line of sight!"

"What I hate is not your gaze, but your heart that is high up and thinks that everyone else is an ant!"

A trace of anger flashed in Zhuang Mochou's eyes, and his figure rushed to the edge of the cliff in a flash, looking down at Xiao Zhan who was descending the mountain:

"Aren't you afraid that I'll kill you?!"

Xiao Zhan raised his head, looked directly into Zhuang Mochou's eyes, and said without fear:

"Of course I'm afraid you'll kill me, but if I show weakness and flattery in front of you, I'll die faster."

After speaking, Xiao Zhan walked down the mountain quickly.

And Zhuang Mochou was stunned in place.

The gaze that Xiao Zhan had just looked at herself kept appearing in front of her.

Obviously, Xiao Zhan was looking up at her, but she always felt that she was looking up at Xiao Zhan.

Zhuang Mochou, who has always felt that he has lived thoroughly and has already understood the truth of the world, suddenly became unconfident in himself at this moment.

Seeing that Zhuang Mochou was in a wrong mood, the middle-aged woman came over and poured Zhuang Mochou a cup of tea, and shouted worriedly:

"Miss."

"I'm fine," Zhuang Mochou shook his head slightly, actually took a teacup again, and poured another cup of tea himself.

"Linghua, you sit."

The middle-aged woman standing next to her was stunned.

He has grown up with Zhuang Mochou since he was a child, and he is Zhuang Mochou's personal maid, and she has always remembered her identity, and she has never crossed in front of Zhuang Mochou.

"Sit down," Zhuang Mochou said softly: "Linghua, the two of us grew up together since childhood, and we have never been separated, although we are masters and servants, we are actually sisters." ”

Tears flashed in the middle-aged woman's eyes, and she slowly sat down in the seat opposite.

"Linghua, do you think I should stay in the Heavenly Sect?"

"The sect master said that when he enters the God Emperor realm, let me be the next Sect Master of the Heavenly Sect."

Linghua shook her head slightly, "I don't know. ”

"Miss is willing to stay in Qingtian Sect, so I will accompany Miss to stay."

"If Miss wants to leave, I'll go with Miss."

Zhuang Mochou nodded, and suddenly turned his head to look at the Hanging Sword Peak.

"Linghua, what do you think of Xiao Wuming...... What do you think? ”

Linghua was a little stunned.

In her impression, Zhuang Mochou had never been interested in any man.

Therefore, even though she is fifty years old this year, she has never had much contact with any man.

"Miss, I think that Xiao Gongzi is the dragon and phoenix among people," Linghua said truthfully: "He is very mysterious." ”

"Yes, mysterious," Zhuang Mochou nodded, his eyes becoming deeper: "It's so mysterious that people can't help but want to peek into the secrets on him." ”

"From now on, you don't have to keep an eye on him, as long as you are in the Optimus Sect, wherever he goes."

"I'd love to see what he can do."

Linghua nodded, "What about the fifteen disciples of the Phantom Sword Sect?" ”

Zhuang Mochou shook his head, "Lock them up first, let them suffer some flesh and skin, and save their lives first." ”

"Got it, Miss," Linghua got up, then turned and walked down the mountain.

Zhuang Mochou's gaze looked at the Hanging Sword Peak again.

The peak of the Hanging Sword.

Xiao Zhan sat cross-legged as if he was at home, spitting out luck.

A few days passed, and Zhuang Mochou did not look for Xiao Zhan again.

On this day, Linghua climbed to the top of the Hanging Sword Peak again and asked Xiao Zhan to go to the water prison.

In the water prison, Yan Xu and the others were already dying, their skin was black, and they looked terrifying.

And in the iron cage next to it, there was also a man in a brocade robe.

The key is that this man's appearance is almost no different from Xiao Zhan's current appearance.

Zhuang Busheng and Zhuang Mochou stood on the edge of the waterhole and glanced at Xiao Zhan lightly.

"My daughter has a high opinion of you, saying that she wants you to stay in the Qingtian Sect, and she will let you serve as an inner sect elder in the future."

"Xiao Wuming, after so many days, you should think about it clearly, right?"

Hearing Zhuang Busheng's words, Xiao Zhan approached expressionlessly, then frowned and asked:

"If I promise to join the Optimus Sect, I can regain my freedom?"

Zhuang Busheng nodded, "Yes." ”

Xiao Zhan asked rhetorically, "Then the sect master is not afraid that I will escape?" ”

"Don't be afraid," Zhuang Busheng glanced at Linghua who was standing not far away.

Linghua immediately stepped forward, took out a small porcelain bottle from her sleeve, and poured out a dark red pill the size of a peanut from the porcelain bottle.

"This pill, called 'Ten Thousand Insects Bone Devouring Pill', will not have any effect on you if you eat it."

"But you need to take the antidote once a year, otherwise, countless poisonous insects will hatch in your body, eating your meridians and bones and blood."

"Without my antidote, no matter what you think, there is absolutely no way to detoxify."

"So, I'm not afraid that you won't ever come back."

Xiao Zhan didn't speak, he directly took the pill and threw it directly into his mouth.

Seeing this scene, Zhuang Mochou's eyes also flashed with a look of satisfaction.

She looked at Yin He, who was locked in the cage, and said to Xiao Zhan:

"You two really look exactly the same."

Don't say it's Zhuang Mochou.

Even Yin He in the cage also looked at Xiao Zhan blankly at this time.

He couldn't have imagined that there would be people in the world who looked exactly like him.

Xiao Zhan had a guess in his heart, but he was afraid that when Yan Kuan was making the mask, he made it according to Yin He's appearance.

Zhuang Busheng asked at this time:

"Xiao Wuming, in your opinion, should I keep Yin He, or should I kill him?"
