The three of them were accustomed to this, and when they stepped out of the elevator, they walked towards the center of the hall without hesitation. Here, demonic energy is the best pass, so no one pays much attention to the three of them.

Suddenly emerging from the shadow of Zhang Lie, Xiao Yu lay on his shoulder, and took a deep breath: "Ah, it's so comfortable." Brother Zhang Lie, speaking of which, we haven't been back here for a long time. ”

Zhang Lie sideways dodged a group of naked spirits who ran past carrying filing cabinets, and replied with a smile: "I haven't been here since the renovation, I didn't expect the changes to be quite big, and all the things that should be there are all in place." ”

As they spoke, they had reached the center of the hall, and in front of them stood a small two-story building made of wood. The small building was quite dilapidated, and there were even wormholes on the walls, and the yellowed planks creaked as if they could break at any moment, and they looked out of place with their surroundings.

But this small building is the residence of Jian Xian, the director of the alliance's China branch. Jian Xian is a monster parasitic in a scroll of bamboo slips, which has been cultivated since the pre-Qin period, and its demonic power can definitely rank among the top five in Asia. Unfortunately, although he has experienced thousands of years and is well-informed, his thinking is extremely conservative, so when the branch was expanded, he rejected the proposal to build a new office for him, and insisted on preserving the dilapidated wooden building where he lived before.

Walking to the front of the wooden building, the three of them were just about to step in, when they suddenly heard Xiaoyu let out a scream of surprise, flew off Zhang Lie's shoulder, and hugged a ghost that emerged from the ground: "It's a pity, you want to kill me." ”

The appearance of this ghost is that of a beautiful girl, about the same age as Xiaoyu, wearing a plain white gauze dress, with her hazy body, quite good-looking. Being hugged by Xiaoyu, she was stunned at first, and then laughed: "Xiaoyu, is it you?" How did you end up here? ”

This ghost called Pity is an earthbound spirit, and the land where she stays happens to be under Jian Xian's wooden building, so Jian Xian made her her her secretary. Because of the relationship between the ghosts, she and Xiaoyu can talk a lot.

Since Xiaoyu is here, then Zhang Lie must be on the side. He turned his head and immediately saw Zhang Lie and Blatter and Anne beside him. She said, "You're here to find Master Jian Xian, right?" I'll go brief. ”

At this time, an old voice came from the building: "No need, call them in." ”

Xi Xi secretly stuck out his tongue at the three of them, and then led them into the wooden building. The interior of the wooden building, as it looks, is very old Chinese decoration, a square table of rosewood, several sour branch chairs, a few pairs of ink and blue on the wall, and the bookshelves are full of thread-bound ancient books, all of which show the owner's strong nostalgia.

At this moment, in the corner of the room, a white-haired old man with a stiff figure is carefully trimming a pot of pine and cypress bonsai with his back to everyone. Seeing him, Zhang Lie shouted unceremoniously: "Hey, old demon Shujian, knowing that we are coming, we still have to pretend to put on a show, it's too uninteresting." ”

When the old man heard this, he turned around, only to see that he was thin and small, hunched over, and he was not very tall in the first place, so he looked even smaller. The old man looks obscene, with sharp-beaked monkey gills, a wisp of mouse whiskers under his chin, half-open and half-closed eyes flickering, wearing a tattered cloth robe, where is there a little "fairy" shelf?

But the three people present did not dare to have the slightest contempt for this old man. Just looking at the hazy layer of gray and white demonic qi around him, he knew that his cultivation had entered the extremely high realm of 'demonic qi condensation, indestructible and unbreakable'. That is, this old man, who has led the local demon clan and the major Chinese art sects to fight for hundreds of years, and he has not fallen behind at all.

Seeing Zhang Lie, Jian Xian snorted dissatisfiedly: "Stinky boy, I have been wandering around the world for so many years, and I don't want to come to see my old man." The bottle of 'Millennium Xifen' you lost to me more than ten years ago has not been delivered. ”

Zhang Lie showed a wry smile: "This dead old man, his memory is really good." Then he said: "It's not that you don't know that I have been helping the alliance all these years, so how can I have time to come and see you." Rest assured, the wine will be delivered to you one day. ”

Jian Xian threw down the scissors and beckoned the three of them to take a seat. Looking at Blatter and Annie, Jian Xian smiled, "These two are from the Blood Clan and the Harpy Banshee Clan, right?" is young, but his cultivation is very good. ”

Blatter and Anne bowed to Jian Xianwei at the same time: "Hello." ”

While speaking, he regretted holding a pot of tea and slowly floated over, and poured it on the four of them one by one. After she finished pouring, Jian Xian waved her hand: "You go out, I have something to talk to them." ”

He whispered a promise, floated out, and brought the door. After the room was quiet again, Jian Xian's expression became very solemn: "Is it for that thing?" ”

As the head of the Non-Human Alliance in China, his position is not trivial, and he naturally knows the plans of the Elder Body. Before answering him, Zhang Lie looked around first and understood what he meant, Jian Xian snorted coldly: "Hmph, I'm not old and confused." Rest assured, this building is protected by my enchantment, and conversations won't leak out. ”

Zhang Lie said: "Yes, the above sent our fourth group to Loulan to get some of the parts." This time, we want to ask what has happened to the major schools of art in China recently. ”

Jian Xian took a sip of tea and said proudly: "With the old man here, what can they do?" However, you still have to be careful, a few young masters have been sent in a few techniques, and they are very potential, and they have killed several of my masters in a row. One of the sorcerers even holds the legendary 'Demon Gathering Jane'. ”

"What, Demon Jane is also alive?" Zhang Lie's eyes flashed when he heard this, and his brows furrowed.

To make Zhang Lie so moved, Blatter and Anne immediately knew that this thing must be very unusual, and the two naturally turned their puzzled eyes to him.

Zhang Lie explained in a low voice: "The Demon Gathering Jane is a treasure of our country in ancient times, and it is said that it is a very tricky thing for us to be able to collect the monster into the Jane and refine its consciousness for our own use. It suddenly disappeared hundreds of years ago, but I didn't expect it to reappear. According to the monsters who have seen it, this monster can not only subdue and refine the monsters, but also has other mysterious abilities. ”

"That's right, not only the magic weapons such as the Demon Gathering Jane, the Heavenly Thunder Seal, the Book of the Five Elements, and the Fire Sword have all fallen into the hands of the leaders of the younger generation of various art schools. There are now many rising stars in the Hunter Organization, and there is a tendency to overshadow the Alliance, which is why the above is desperate to implement the plan. Jian Xian added.

It was only then that the three of them had a preliminary understanding of how serious the situation was. In terms of individual ability, although humans are not as good as non-human races, they have great potential, and often an excellent human can pose a great threat to youkai after decades of cultivation. Coupled with the fact that the number far exceeds that of the non-human race, Gu has been dominating the earth for thousands of years.

Nowadays, there is a large number of outstanding talents in the hunter organization, and the time required for their growth is often incomparable to that of non-human races who often have to go through hundreds of years of cultivation. For the non-Humans, the last thing they want to see is the kind of young humans with great potential, because the other party is likely to become a great enemy enough to subvert the alliance in a few decades.

"Why don't you kill them beforehand?" Anne said coldly. Killing potential "hunters" before they become climates is a consensus known to all non-human races.

Jian Xian smiled bitterly: "It's not easy to talk about, these young people's mana is no less powerful than first-class sorcerers." In addition, the major art sects protected them like treasures, and the old man had sent several batches of masters, all of which returned in vain. ”

A hint of coldness flashed in Zhang Lie's eyes: "Hmph, interesting, if I have the opportunity, I would like to see it." ”

Saying that, Jian Xian said to Blatter again: "Recently, the activities of your clan have also been quite a headache, and many Demon Banquet Alliance factions have changed their previous secret activities and have begun to openly attack humans, which has attracted great attention from the hunter organization. If you run into one of these Bloods, it's best not to have anything to do with them. ”

Brazz nodded and said in a deep voice, "I understand, thanks for the reminder." ”

After explaining some more things, Jian Xian finally said: "Okay, that's the only thing I can tell you." By the way, the old man doesn't know much about that thing, so you can only do it yourself. What else is needed, albeit proposed. ”

Zhang Lie nodded, and stood up with Blatter and Anne: "Thank you, that's enough." ”

Saying that, the three of them said goodbye and left, and they found a hotel to stay that day, and booked a ticket to Lanzhou, waiting to leave for their destination, the Loulan ruins of Lop Nur.
