The Star Jade Pavilion is called a sect composed of spiritualists.

But it's actually more like a large chamber of commerce organization.

And historically, the Star Jade Pavilion also evolved from the Star Jade Trading House.

In its heyday, the upper, middle, and lower rings all had semicolons.

The business category covers many aspects, and it can definitely be regarded as a gold-absorbing giant.

And when the business is bigger, it must have enough strength as a guarantee.

Therefore, the Star Jade Pavilion came into being.

At the beginning, it was started by the owners of the merchant house who did not know which generation, with their own young children as the backbone, and then from various branches to draw young boys and girls who were innocent, loyal and reliable, and had the talent for cultivation to cultivate, and established a sect organization called Xingyu Pavilion from scratch.

Xingyu Pavilion not only served as the guardian of the firm, but also strengthened itself with the help of the firm's huge financial and material resources, until it developed into the power center of the entire firm.

Although in terms of background and strength, it is not as good as the big families with the backing of the magicians, but at least it is also a first-class spiritual master organization under the major families.

The tentacles are all over the upper, middle and lower rings, and have a huge influence in many places.

Even after the Great Collapse, it has slumped again, but it has made a comeback with the momentum of the Star Ring's recovery.

The first thing that the Star Jade Pavilion aimed at was the transportation route between the middle and upper star rings, and after a series of fierce confrontations between the open and the covert, as well as the exchange and compromise with the forces of all parties, it finally got the lion's share.

As a blood transfusion pump with a long stream of water, the Spirit Boat Route provided a lot of resources for the entire organization, allowing the Star Jade Pavilion to snowball again.

It's just that in the process of destruction and rebirth, in order to speed up the recovery, successive pavilion masters recruited a large number of spiritual magicians from the outside to enrich their power, including many evil monks with bad deeds, as well as all kinds of outlaws.

Therefore, it also made the entire Star Jade Pavilion mixed, and the big and small mountains were constantly in chaos in order to compete for power, and sometimes even the pavilion master's line could not be truly suppressed.

Wei Tao entered the city and directly stayed at the branch of the Star Jade Pavilion located here.

Yutang obviously has a strong voice here.

It can even be regarded as the controller of the entire branch.

Everyone below had to rely on her snort and watch her face act.

Therefore, after entering the city, there was no need for her to say anything, and the affairs of life were arranged properly, so that it was almost impossible to find the slightest mistake.

Even Wei Tao was treated specially.

Whether it is food, clothing, housing and transportation, or cultivation use, it is even more comfortable than when he was in the Yan family.

At night, it gets dark.

Wei Tao finished a sumptuous dinner and sat in the elegant and exquisite pavilion drinking tea to digest his food.

The rain has not appeared since noon.

It seems that someone has come to Xingyu Pavilion, and she wants to go over to pick up the wind and wash the dust for the other party.

Wei Tao didn't care about that.

One could even say that there was no interest.

At this moment, all his attention was drawn to the information in front of him.

It contains detailed information about the nine great magicians.

In addition to this, there is also intelligence gathering about the Zhang family.

He drank slowly, reading page by page.

Unaware of the passage of time.

In the process of reading, his thoughts quietly drifted away, and he began to combine his own cultivation and perception to study and deduce.

"Zhang Ji said that I am the three cultivation paths of the Void Horizontal, the True Intent of the Fierce Spirit, and the Immortal True Body are entangled and intertwined, and I will definitely fall into confusion in the future.

Then he also sent his Cave Heaven Domain to me, so that the four paths went hand in hand, and I don't know if there was a priority. ”

"However, through this period of raising seedlings and planting trees, and integrating the three spiritual patterns of Jialan, I have benefited a lot, and even gave birth to thoughts and thoughts that I have never had before."

Wei Tao took a sip of the teacup and concentrated on looking at himself.

As time passed, the Ruins became more and more connected to him.

Maybe after a while, it will really be like what "Zhang Ji" said, and it will become his own cave domain.

So, what happens if he makes attributions based on this method?

The Void Cave Heaven Immortal Spirit Body?

If several roads can be built into one road, then even if the magician "Zhang Ji" did not lie to him from beginning to end, and everything he said was 12% true, wouldn't he be safe and sound, and nothing happened?

After all, all four roads have been built, and even if he wants to be confused, there is no confused fork in the road for him to go.

But before that, it is necessary to plant trees well and stabilize the ruined land.

At the same time, he must also find ways to strengthen the true spirit and soul and constantly improve his own strength.

Only after we have truly found the foundation of "Zhang Ji" can we conduct more comprehensive and in-depth research and analysis.

Wei Tao exhaled lightly, looked up at the dark clouds that were quietly gathering, and turned the information in his hand to the next page.

Right now.

Suddenly there was a soft squeak.

The side door of the small courtyard was pushed open.

Several figures flashed in silently.

They quickly cast their gaze on the gazebo, and their eyes fell on Wei Tao at the same time.

Several people glanced at each other, and immediately outflanked and surrounded each other from different directions.

Just then, a night breeze blew.

What it brings is not the coolness it should be at this time.

It's an inexplicable scorching and corrosive breath.

Several men in black silently surrounded them.

Then it vanished without warning.

Except for the soft sound of the door being pushed at the beginning, the whole courtyard was silent from beginning to end, as if they had never been here, and nothing had happened here.

Suddenly, another night breeze blew.

The steam of the tea cup is swirling, and various shapes are changed to blend into the night sky.

Wei Tao flipped through a page and set his eyes on the next sorcerer's biography.

He suddenly came back to his senses and turned his head to look at the side door of the small courtyard that had been pushed open.

"Looks like someone broke in?"

"Could it be the criminal that Yutang sent me?"

Picking up the already cold tea and drinking it all, Wei Tao's brows furrowed slightly, and a puzzled expression appeared on his face.

"The prison here was emptied by me on the first day I came, and then I cleared all kinds of gangs doing shady things, and all those disobedient psychic magicians were made into tree fertilizer, I didn't expect that in just two days, so many criminals appeared."

"It's really interesting, with this super high crime rate, she still has the face to tell me that the security here is excellent, and even petty theft is rare in the past."

Swish!

Quietly, the gazebo was empty.

Only a faint scorching and corrosive aura appeared in the dark night, and then quickly disappeared without a trace.

Dark red sky, the land of ruins.

Wei Tao stepped into a charred black ruin.

Looking at the few people who had just fallen into the Cave Heaven Domain not far away, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and a happy smile immediately appeared on his face.

The quality of these criminals sent in was even higher than the previous ones.

And it's not the average high.

At least a few extra floors in height.

Not to mention anything else, just because they were not directly devoured and absorbed vitality, it means that everyone is at least at the level of strength above the Void Realm.

"The sky is dark red, the ground is scorched, what is this place!?"

"Look, there's a pit up ahead."

"There is a tree in the pit, and there are dry bones beside the tree."

"There's movement over there, it looks like there's another person?"

Several black-clothed people were surprised and puzzled, and they all turned their heads to look to the side.

"Spiritualists who have committed sins, the whole world can no longer tolerate you."

"Only with me can you be truly saved."

"This little tree in dire need of nutrients is your final destination!"

With a low roar, the void was shaken.

Rumble!!!

Suddenly the wind howled, and the thunder exploded.

A figure swelled rapidly and grew larger.

The body is covered with blue and black scales, and sharp bone spurs protrude.

Surrounded by wings and three tails, he picked up the black scale spurs covering his body, like the arm of a siege hammer, and smashed down like the top of Mount Tai.

The battle began unexpectedly.

And it was over in an instant.

Several psychics lay on the ground, each with irreparable injuries.

They are not dead yet, but they are only one step away from death.

And with the rapid passage of life, this step will also be taken by them soon.

Until they cross the door of life and death, and then close it again, leaving no hope for themselves to live.

"You, ...... the hell"

The leader of the several people was the strongest, and at this time he remained awake and did not pass out like the others.

He looked up and asked with difficulty.

"It doesn't matter who I am."

"The important thing is that if you are guilty, you need to be judged justly."

Wei Tao's face was expressionless, and he looked down, "And I am your judge." ”

"You, Inquisitor?"

"What kind of righteous judge are you?"

Blood gushed from the black-clothed mouth, and his eyes were scarlet.

"Sure enough, the weapon of criticism is too weak, and it can never replace the weapon of criticism."

Wei Tao watched the seedlings of the Divine Tree grow new shoots, and his tone suddenly became calm when he spoke again.

"Just like you, even if you do something wrong, you will stand up and not admit it, and at this time, I must use my fist of justice to break the disguise that you have wrapped around yourself, so that justice and peace can be completely served."

"That's nonsense!"

The man in black gritted his teeth and said word by word, "We are the subordinates of the Xingyu Pavilion Nian Patrol Envoy, you are just a little white face raised by that cheap woman in Yutang, so why should you judge us?" ”

"Oh?"

"Are you also from the Star Jade Pavilion?"

"So, did I misunderstand you?"

Wei Tao couldn't help but be slightly stunned when he heard this, but then he shook his head, "No, if I say that you are guilty, you will be sure that you are guilty, as long as it is the person I have tried, there is no room for misunderstanding." ”

"What's more, no matter who you are, trespassing on a private house late at night is a big crime, even if the so-called Nian Patrol Envoy in your mouth comes, it won't delay me to beat people half to death and make tree fertilizer."

Boom!

Suddenly, a muffled sound rang out.

The man in black had a frightened expression and a desperate and helpless look in his eyes.

He stared at the man in front of him, completely unable to move under the huge pressure, let alone effectively defend and dodge.

In the end, I could only watch as a fist seemed to fall slowly, smashing everything into a dark abyss with no end.

"You dare to threaten me, you don't know how to write dead words."

"As long as I say one more word, I am afraid that I will not be able to bear it, and I will immediately go to find that Nian Patrol Envoy and convict him of the great crime of not disciplining him strictly and conniving at his subordinates to commit murder in the dark!"

Swish!

A gentle breeze blows.

The Ruins are quiet again.

It's just that there are a few more dried corpses at the bottom of the pit.

The seedlings of the sacred tree seemed to have grown taller, and through the more vigorous branches and leaves, they began to radiate more spiritual consciousness outward.

In the gazebo of the small courtyard, a figure appeared silently.

Wei Tao sat back in the chair and picked up the stack of materials that he hadn't finished reading yet.

At that moment, there was another soft squeak.

Yu Yu hurried from outside.

Her breath was a little disorganized, and there were beads of sweat on her forehead, which shimmered in the light.

"What's wrong with you, you look so anxious."

Wei Tao put down the information in his hand and slowly sat up straight.

"It's all the slave's fault, so that the gentleman is disturbed."

Yu Yu took a deep breath and tried to calm his voice, "Today, the Nian Patrol Envoy came to the city, and the slave maid thought that she was just passing by, and she only needed to be well entertained to deal with people.

Unexpectedly, she came prepared, because of a problem of uneven distribution of business not long ago, and even recklessly spoke out directly at the reception dinner, which almost caught the slave and maid off guard. ”

"I didn't have much going on here, just a couple of little mice snuck in and I sent them to make manure."

Wei Tao nodded and said casually, "Listen to what you mean, then why is the Nian Patrol Envoy also here, and he still has a lot of grudges with you?" ”

"Mr. Hui's words, I don't have any grudges with me, and we haven't even spoken much before.

However, she is the person of the Yu Deputy Pavilion Master, and the slave maid is the disciple of the Zhuang Deputy Pavilion Master, which is the biggest problem between the slave and her. ”

Yu Yu thought as he slowly continued.

"Originally, although there were some entanglements and contradictions in the interests of the two sides, they could generally maintain a decent face, let alone directly tear their faces on the other side's territory.

It's just that since the Pavilion Master returned from the lower Star Ring, he has been in retreat for physical reasons, and he has a non-caring attitude towards many things, which has suddenly caused a lot of turmoil, as well as the struggle between different factions in the Star Jade Pavilion........."

Wei Tao listened silently for a moment, and directly asked the question he was most concerned about.

"Where are the people now?"

"And the other psychics brought by the Nian Patrol Envoy, where are they now?"

Yu Yu replied cautiously, "What do you mean, sir?" ”

"I don't mean anything, it's just that I just listened to your words, and I thought something was going on, but you didn't even fight, what is this called tearing your face?"

Wei Tao glanced up at her, and slowly got up from the wooden chair as he spoke, "You take me to find them now, let me judge these people, and by the way, let you see, what is called real tearing of the skin, what is called justice that cannot be defiled, and the truth is undoubted." ”

"Sir is right."

"That's why the slave came to report to Mr."

Yu Yu took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, his fair face flushed.

When she spoke again, maybe it was because of the muffled anger, or maybe it was the murderous intent that had been suppressed for a long time, which made her voice sound a little distorted.

"Just now, the slave and maid kept swallowing their anger at the banquet, and they didn't break out immediately, in fact, they were worried that after Mr. strengthened, once they made a move, it would be difficult to control the power, and if they were not careful, they would all be killed.

In this way, it is possible to delay the affairs of the gentlemen, and prevent them from receiving the righteous judgment and the subsequent punishment lesson. ”

………………

……………………

Branch Banquet Hall.

The room is brightly lit inside and out.

It's just that under the warm and bright light, the atmosphere seems a little cold and condensed.

Little by little, time passed.

No one at the table spoke.

And no one drinks or eats.

Let the carefully cooked dishes cool completely, and they will still be the same as when they were first served.

After a long time, a cold female voice sounded slowly, finally breaking the silence in the banquet room.

"The rain lord has been out for some time, why hasn't he come back yet?"

"Could it be that she knows that she is at a loss, so she wants to shrink her head and ignore it?"

"The point is that I have other things to ask her besides the last loot distribution, and hopefully get a reasonable answer as soon as possible.

For example, how did Feng Yin die, and the man she brought back, what virtue and ability did he have, so that he could occupy the cultivation resources of our Star Jade Pavilion branch, can you subordinates give me an explanation? ”

It was a graceful and beautiful woman who spoke.

With a smile on her face, she looked around, her gaze falling on the disciples of the Star Jade Pavilion of the branch, as if waiting for their answer.

"Recall the words of the patrol envoy."

After a while, an old man sitting at the bottom got up and said in a respectful tone, "She should be ...... the master."

"Can you answer my question?"

"If you can't answer, you just open your mouth, do you have any opinion of me as an inspector?"

The old man lowered his eyes, not daring to look at him.

I already knew in my heart that the other party was here to find fault, but now that the rain lord is not here, they don't have the courage and confidence to confront him at all.

However, even if the head of the department still stays here, the strength level of the patrol envoy is ......

When the old man thought of this, he was extremely conflicted in his heart.

I want the rain lord to come back to preside over the overall situation, but I don't want her to appear here, lest if the fight really starts, their branch will be ownerless in an instant, and it may even fall apart directly.

"There are a few fewer people brought by the surname Nian, could it be that he is looking for the young man next to the rain master?"

As soon as he thought of this, he suddenly panicked.

I opened my mouth several times, but I didn't know what to say, and I was afraid that if I didn't say the right thing, it would cause the other party to be even more angry.

For a while, I didn't stand or sit, I was like a man on my back, and I spent my days like a year.

The wind is blowing.

The lights outside the hall flickered on and off.

The branches of the trees shook like ghosts.

There is also more and more humidity, mixed with the wind.

I don't know when it began, dark clouds gathered in the sky, obscuring the stars and the moon.

A gentle drizzle fell quietly, rapidly lowering the already cool temperature.

"Picking up the lights and watching the rain has a different artistic conception."

"I'm not in a hurry, just sit here and wait to see how long you Yuyu Master can hide."

With a smile on his face, he picked up the teacup and took a sip.

But in the next moment, she stopped without warning.

A flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he looked towards the half-hidden hall door.

Boom!

Without warning, the ground moved slightly.

The shaking made the plates on the table buzz.

Nian Patrol made his eyes narrow, and his pupils contracted slightly.

She subconsciously withdrew her gaze and glanced towards the seat next to her.

At this moment, there was a sudden squeak.

The door to the parlor was pushed open.

The rain went and returned, and one foot stepped in.

She looked around and slowly spoke, "Elder Qu, you take a few of them out first, it's none of your business here." ”

The old man who had just spoken hesitated, "Master, we ......"

"I'll let you go out first."

Yu Tang's tone turned cold, "Or is it that in the Xingyu Pavilion Lingyuan City Branch, my words are no longer good?" ”

The old man didn't dare to say much, and immediately beckoned the spiritualists of the Lingyuan branch to leave.

A few people came out of the banquet room and came out into the courtyard.

But I saw a man in a white robe, standing with his hands in the cold rain, looking like a humanoid sculpture that could not move.

"Your Excellency......"

Qu Lao opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything.

For he suddenly noticed that there was something strange about this man.

He was standing here, but he looked like he was somewhere else.

The whole person seems to exist, but it is as if it does not exist.

What's even stranger is that he is surrounded by a scorching and corrosive aura, but it is like a new shoot, full of infinite possibilities.

It gives people an indescribably weird feeling.

"Is it Qu Lao, I heard Yu Tang mention your name, and said that you are serious and responsible, and loyal, which has won her expectations and values."

At this moment, a gentle voice came from the figure that seemed to be real and virtual, and seemed to be non-real and non-virtual, which inexplicably made people's emotions quiet and peaceful.

Without waiting for the old man to speak, he continued, "You stay nearby, don't let other unrelated people get close here, the rain department is mainly discussing some things with the Nian patrol, and I don't want anyone to come and disturb me." ”

"Yes, please rest assured, the old man will go down and arrange it."

Qu Lao unconsciously gave a deep salute, and left quickly with a few people, not daring to turn around and look at it again from beginning to end.

Wei Tao's fingers moved, and a few more chalcedony appeared in his palm.

The Dao Spiritual Thread meandered around and began to absorb the spiritual power in it.

After a few moments, the first chalcedony ashes dispersed.

The second batch came to the palm of his hand.

Wei Tao was just about to absorb and absorb, but stopped without warning.

Right now.

Suddenly a thunderclap erupted.

Brilliant light broke through the rain curtain and reflected the dark void.

Immediately afterwards, the roof of the banquet room and the walls collapsed instantly.

Another figure flew upside down from it.

After falling, one stumbles, stepping into the ground with a large dense crack.

Wei Tao frowned slightly and turned his head to look.

He also didn't expect that the person who flew out turned out to be Yutang.

Her hair was messy, her face was pale, and there was a wisp of blood on the corner of her lips, obviously suffering a lot of dark losses in the duel just now.

Although Yu Tang was originally just a Void Realm Spiritual Magician, after he strengthened it himself, his strength level skyrocketed several times compared to before.

It turned out that it was not the enemy who read the patrol.

When Wei Tao thought of this, he immediately became interested.

He gathered all his thoughts, and focused his attention on the depths of the smoke.

Whoa!

The two figures pushed open the toppled beams and walked out of the ruined banquet hall into the storm-shrouded courtyard.

"If you hadn't traveled together this time and helped at a critical moment, I'm afraid the concubine would have lost her life in the collision just now."

"I didn't expect that Yu Tang was just a disciple of Deputy Pavilion Master Zhuang, and she was just a spiritual magician in the Void Realm before, but now she would become so powerful, and the spiritual skills she performed were also unheard of, and they were beyond the scope of my response."

The Nian Inspector took a deep breath, exhaled slowly, and bowed to the black-clothed man beside him with a frightened expression on his face.

"She's not using your psychics, at least not entirely yours, and she's not supposed to be the effeminate woman she is now."

The man in black seemed reluctant to say more, and closed his mouth after saying only one word.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, carefully observing the perception.

A pair of eyes suddenly became as bright as stars.

His gaze fell on the figure standing in the courtyard through the heavy smoke and dust that had not yet dissipated.

In an instant, his expression became puzzled, mixed with a hint of solemnity, no longer cold and reserved before.

The night wind is howling and the cold rain is falling.

The smoke and dust quickly cleared, revealing a scene under the cover of night.

In front of the ruins of the banquet hall, the drizzle quietly turned into mist, changing into various different images, covering the man in black standing in it.

And near the gate of the courtyard, there stood a looming figure, as if it existed, but it didn't seem to be here.

The two looked at each other in the air, and both were silent.

Little by little, time passed.

Suddenly, a faint sigh sounded.

Break the dull silence for a long time.

The voice of the man in black pierced through the mist and quietly flowed in the courtyard, "You are here, and you are in other places, connecting a ruined Cave Heaven Domain, I didn't expect to see the Void Vertical and Horizontal Divine Power here." ”

Wei Tao lowered his eyes and showed a gentle smile on his face, "I was also pleasantly surprised by your appearance, it seems that the upper star ring is indeed more profound, just a patrol envoy of the Star Jade Pavilion has such a level of strength."

What's more, you're also a Voidwalker, which piqued my interest even more, and I made up my mind to keep you here. ”

"You want to leave me here?"

The man in black sighed lowly, "With the ability you shown, you are not my opponent at all, I am afraid that I can only think about it." ”

His voice was indifferent and detached, fluttering in the dark night and rain, and at the same time it was clearly heard in everyone's ears.

Wei Tao raised his head suddenly, and suddenly surrounded by blood-colored light.

There are illusory red lotus blooming again, and ten ghost cars are flying up and down.

He held his breath and stared, and he could penetrate the delusion and perceive deeply.

After a moment, without warning, he turned around and looked away from the mist and into the dark depths on one side.

"Just that big breath."

"As a result, the golden cicada broke out of its shell and secretly escaped under my nose!?"

"I'd like to see if you can get away!"

Rumble!!!

Suddenly the wind blew and the rain rolled up.

The ground undulates like a wave.

There was also a thunderbolt that exploded suddenly.

A figure roared away at this moment.

Its speed was so fast and majestic that it pierced the dark rain curtain into a huge straight cavity that did not disappear even for a long time.

Nian Patrol was dumbfounded, as if he couldn't believe his eyes.

What happened just now made her fall into a fog, and she even thought she was dreaming.

That adult, such a powerful character.

In her heart, she could even compete with the deputy pavilion master, and even if she was defeated, she could withdraw from the strength level, and she ran away without even fighting, which was completely beyond her expectations.

What's even more terrifying is the guy in the white robe.

That kind of majestic momentum of roaring away, if she happened to be in front of him, I am afraid that he would not be directly hit to death.

The Nian Patrol Envoy bit his lower lip and searched around for a way out.

At this moment, a low and depressed female voice suddenly sounded.

It seems that a lot of anger has been accumulated, and I don't know when it will explode and be released.

The rain approached step by step, and his body continued to expand and rise at the same time.

The fine scales shimmer faintly.

Two spear-like horns stood on his shoulders.

There are also wings spread out on the back, and the long tail dragged behind him, showing a hideous and terrifying state.

"You, you ......"

The reading of the patrol made his face dull and muttered to himself.

"You made me lose a lot of face in front of my husband."

Yu Yu's voice was low, like a demon roaring, "But I still won't beat you to death, I will only beat you half to death, and then strip you naked and send you to Mr. to accept the judgment of justice!" ”
