Chapter 343: The Masked Man
If he really wanted what Hu Lie said that Ling Zhan was a beast spirit body, then the consequences would be really terrifying! Xia Yun's mind even thought of the scene where Ling Zhan would destroy the entire Soul Devouring Sect by himself ten years later.
Suddenly, Xia Yun's body couldn't help but shudder!
Xia Yun said to Hu Lie: "No matter what the price is paid, this Ling Zhan must not stay!"
From Xia Yun's words, Hu Lie could hear the resolute meaning, and Hu Lie knew in his heart that Xia Yun was really killing Ling Zhan. Thinking about it, with the bad relationship between the Soul Devouring Sect and the Ten Thousand Beasts Heavenly Sect, it was really a miracle that they could be in peace for so many years. In fact, Hu Lie himself also understood that in the future, there would definitely be a real Armageddon between the Soul Devouring Sect and the Ten Thousand Beasts Heavenly Sect, and the final winner of this decisive battle would become the master of the entire Southern Wilderness Region!
And if Ling Zhan was really as the intelligence said, then Ling Zhan would definitely be the true core of the Ten Thousand Beasts Heavenly Sect in future wars.
It is precisely because of this that Mishan Wuzun's acceptance of Ling Zhan as a personal disciple can be explained, and as a Ling Zhan beast spirit body, he has become a personal disciple of Wuzun, which is enough qualifications.
However, this is only a possibility.
In the information that Hu Lie obtained, there was no accurate evidence to prove the identity of Ling Zhan's beast spirit body, Hu Lie frowned, and said, "Sect Master, did you say that this could be a smoke bomb released by the Ten Thousand Beasts Heavenly Sect, deliberately luring us into being fooled!"
Xia Yun said: "Are you saying that the Ten Thousand Beasts Heavenly Sect deliberately put Ling Zhan in front of the stage, in order to let our people lurking in the Ten Thousand Beasts Heavenly Sect reveal their identities?"
Hu Lie nodded and said, "It's very possible! Sect Master, don't forget, we just planned an incident against the Ten Thousand Beasts Heavenly Sect! Although it was finally destroyed by Ling Zhan, we also killed a lot of disciples from the outer sect of the Ten Thousand Beasts Heavenly Sect, which should be regarded as a big blow to the Ten Thousand Beasts Heavenly Sect. Now his subordinates are guessing that Murray, the head of the Ten Thousand Beasts Heavenly Sect, should be planning a retaliation action! Could it be that Murray is estimated to have released the rumors in order to retaliate against us?"
Xia Yun nodded and said, "What you said is not unreasonable, with Murray's cunning character, he should be able to do such a thing!"
Hu Lie said, "Then what should we do? If we want to kill Ling Zhan, Elder Li, who has not been able to break into the top level of the Ten Thousand Beasts Heavenly Sect, will die in vain." ”
Xia Yun's face showed a look of hesitation, as the sect master, Xia Yun was very aware of the difficulty of his subordinates entering the Ten Thousand Beasts Heavenly Sect, and Elder Li was able to become the high-level of the Ten Thousand Beasts Heavenly Sect, which in itself was very difficult. If Ling Zhan's identity as a beast spirit was fake, and in the end, in order to kill Ling Zhan, Elder Li was exposed, it would be too unworthy.
Xia Yun fell into deep thought, and for a moment, there was silence in the entire Holy Soul Palace, and there was no sound.
Xia Yun's contradictory expression, Hu Lie could see it clearly. He also knew Xia Yun's worries, if he asked Hu Lie to stand in the position of the Soul Devouring Sect Sect Master to deal with this matter, I am afraid he would also be very conflicted.
After all, they couldn't determine the identity of the Ling Zhan Beast Spirit Body, and Elder Li's position in the Ten Thousand Beast Heavenly Sect was too important for them to make a choice at all. If Ling Zhan was really a beast spirit body, sacrificing Elder Li to kill him would be a very worthwhile business. But what if Ling Zhan was just bait thrown by Murray, then the price paid by the Soul Eater Sect would be too great.
After a long time, Xia Yun's eyes became more and more determined, and he said in a deep voice: "Whether Ling Zhan is a bait or not, we must do it! We can't make this bet, we can't afford to lose this bet!"
Hearing Xia Yun's last words, Hu Lie's face showed a hint of understanding. Indeed, their Soul Devouring Sect couldn't afford to make this bet! If they let Ling Zhan go because they were afraid of losses, and Ling Zhan was really a beast spirit body, the consequences would be too terrifying. Their entire Soul Eater Sect is even in danger of being destroyed!, so this bet must not be made.
Xia Yun sighed and said, "How is Old Man Li? If he knew that we were going to sacrifice him, would he turn back?"
Hu Lie shook his head and said, "Elder Li's subordinates still know very well, for the Soul Devouring Sect, Elder Li is extremely loyal, as long as it is beneficial to the Soul Devouring Sect, even if he is allowed to die, Elder Li will not hesitate to do it! ”
Xia Yun nodded and said, "Having such a loyal disciple is the blessing of our Soul Devouring Sect!"
Hu Lie echoed a few words.
Xia Yun said, "By the way, does Elder Li have any relatives and friends in the sect?"
Hu Lie nodded and said, "He has a son who is just sixteen years old this year and has been cultivating in the Dark Hall!"
Xia Yun said: "What are his qualifications?"
Hu Lie said: "Very good!"
Xia Yun glanced at Hu Lie in surprise, obviously very surprised by his evaluation. You must know that Hu Lie is a very strict person on weekdays, even if he is a very powerful genius, in Hu Lie's eyes, it is just a middle-class evaluation. However, Hu Lie's direct evaluation of Elder Li's words was very good, which is a bit too exaggerated! Could it be that because Elder Li was going to sacrifice for the sect, Hu Lie looked at his son pitifully and wanted to say a few kind words for him?
Immediately, Xia Yun shook his head, Xia Yun still knew Hu Lie's character very well. Even if Elder Li sacrificed for the sect, he would definitely not do such a thing. The only reason why I think about it is that Elder Li's son's qualifications are really very good, even superb, and only such a person can be looked at by Hu Lie.
Thinking of this, Xia Yun said, "In a while, you let Elder Li's son come to me, and I will accept his son as a disciple!"
Hu Lie was stunned for a moment when he heard this, obviously unable to believe what he had just heard, and said, "Master, what are you talking about, you want to accept Elder Li's son as a disciple?"
Xia Yun nodded and said, "Over the years, Elder Li has paid too much for the sect, and in the end, he even has to sacrifice himself, his credit to the sect is really too great. So for his only son, we have to take care of it. ”
Hearing Xia Yun's words, a hint of surprise flashed in Hu Lie's eyes, he was really happy for Elder Li's son, if he could become Xia Yun's disciple, then it would really be a step to the sky, and in the future, he might even be able to ascend to the position of sect master!
Thinking of this, Hu Lie nodded and said, "My subordinates know, I don't know if the sect master wants to accept Li Ming as a registered disciple or a true disciple?"
Xia Yun showed a meaningful smile and said, "If his qualifications are really as rebellious as you say, it is not impossible to accept him as a true disciple!"
Hearing Xia Yun say this, Hu Lie's heart beat a lot faster in an instant, and Hu Lie secretly said in his heart: This kid, his luck is really good, with his qualifications, I am afraid that this time it is really a step to the sky. In the future, with the suzerain covering, I think I should live a good life.
Hu Lie stood up from his seat, bowed down to Xia Yun, and said, "My subordinates have thanked the sect master for Elder Li first." ”
Xia Yun waved his hand and said, "There's no need, this is what I should do." But Hall Master Hu, there is one thing you must remember, since you have decided to expose Elder Li, then you must kill Ling Zhan!"
Hu Lie smiled and said, "Sect Master, rest assured, Elder Li is a high-level martial saint, and if he personally deals with a small martial sect, isn't that a good deal?"
Xia Yun shook his head and said with a cautious expression: "Don't be careless! If Ling Zhan is really a beast spirit body as you said, then there must be many masters around him to protect him." And if Elder Li wanted to kill Ling Zhan under the protection of these many masters, it was estimated that it would not be so easy. ”
Hu Lie nodded, and his mood gradually became solemn! He knew that Xia Yun was not wrong, if Ling Zhan was really a beast spirit body, then it must be the treasure of the Ten Thousand Beasts Heavenly Sect, and there must be many masters to protect him on weekdays. I heard that Ling Zhan and his senior brother Mu Kong have a bad relationship, maybe Mu Kong is one of the masters who protect Ling Zhan. If that's the case, then the qiē becomes tricky.
Hu Lie said to Xia Yun: "Sect Master, my subordinates will let Elder Li act cheaply. ”
Xia Yun nodded and said, "Very good, I will keep an eye on this matter at any time." ”
Waiting for Hu Lie to leave, Xia Yun sat alone in the huge Holy Soul Palace, his eyes flashed with a faint essence, and he muttered, "Murray, will there really be a beast spirit body in your Ten Thousand Beast Heavenly Sect?"
On the second day of the fight, the residence of Nanming Zhenren.
Nan Ming Zhenren sat in his bedroom, his expression was extremely hideous, and he said fiercely: "Ling Zhan, Mu Kong, Murray, hello, you are really good! Hmph, wait, one day, I'll make you regret it. ”
After speaking, Nan Ming Zhenren smashed his fist directly on a cabinet beside him, and the cabinet turned into powder in an instant.
At this moment, Nan Ming Zhenren suddenly felt a wave of spatial fluctuations behind him.
Suddenly, Nanming Zhenren became alert, he knew very well that in the sect, he had many enemies. Now that the position of the chief formation mage he relied on had been snatched away, his enemies could seek revenge on him at any time.
Thinking of this, Nanming Zhenren almost subconsciously put on a defensive posture and said, "Who is it?"
When Nanming Zhenren looked back, he found that a masked man in a black robe had appeared in front of him.
Seeing this masked man, Nanming Zhenren frowned and said, "Who are you, what is the purpose of coming to me?"
Who knew that this masked man smiled and said: "I didn't expect that the arrogant Nanming Zhenren would become like a frightened bird, don't worry, I have no ill will towards you." ”
Hearing the masked man's taunt, a trace of shame flashed in Nanming Zhenren's eyes, he glanced at the masked man viciously, and said, "Who are you?"
The masked man glanced at Nanming Zhenren and said, "Do you want revenge?"
