Sea of Chaos, Inland Sea.

Today's inland sea is very different from what it used to be.

The entire inner city in the Inland Sea has been lifted up, and it has been suspended in the air by an upside-down array, so all the people who come and go inside it have become upside-down because of this great array.

Of course, this is a strange appearance seen from the outside.

If you enter this upside-down array and are in it, you will feel that you are walking on the flat ground as usual, without the slightest sense of weirdness.

In the entire inland sea, it is heavily guarded, and there is a post in a hundred steps.

However, in addition to the disciples of Wanyan Sect, there were many monks dressed in apricot yellow disciple uniforms.

Whoop -

Baskets of spirit stones were lifted up from under the sea, and the spirit stones looked crystal clear and gorgeous under the sunlight.

As soon as these spirit stones were mined, they were put into storage bags by the people waiting on the surface of the sea.

After they had filled the ten storage bags, they immediately flew up to the inner city in the upside-down array, flew towards the City Lord's Mansion, and handed them all over to Li Jiu.

And under Li Jiu's seat, there were ten monks with rather arrogant expressions.

They were uniformly dressed in apricot-colored robes, and their sleeves were embroidered with stars of different sizes and numbers—so that it was immediately clear that they were all disciples of the Xuanji School.

And of these ten people from the Xuanji Sect, nine of them were cultivators in the middle stage of the Jiedan, and the one headed by them was the cultivation of the Great Perfection in the later stage of the Jiedan.

A wisp of a goatee grew on his chin, and his seemingly indifferent complexion revealed his superiority as a disciple of the Great Gate Sect.

Li Jiu counted a total of fifty storage bags, and then handed them all over to the goatee:

"The number of spirit stones handed over this time has been prepared, please take a look."

The goatee monk naturally put all the fifty storage bags from Li Jiu's hand into the storage ring in his hand, and his eyes were dust-free, and he said:

"In this case, I'll go back to my life first."

Hearing this, Li Jiu's face remained unchanged and said, "Yes, there is a labor envoy." ”

"Hmm."

The goatee's chin was held high, and he planned to leave the inner city and go to Nidao to leave here in a teleportation array.

But who would have thought, as soon as he got up from his seat, he immediately felt a terrifying coercion imprison him in place.

This coercion was very terrifying, and only the power of the Transformation Stage could have such extraordinary power, so that even his heartbeat was imprisoned, and he couldn't move for half a minute.

Not only him, but the other nine Xuanji Sect monks were also imprisoned by that coercion.

This colossal coercion made their arrogant faces show a look of horror in their eyes.

At this moment, a man dressed in lilac suddenly appeared in front of them.

Seeing this person, the disciples of the Wanyan Sect and Li Jiu who were on duty in the entire City Lord's Mansion suddenly changed from the look of the frightened bird to the expression of joy:

"Shi Yao Zhen, Zhen Jun, ah no, it's Zhenzun, it's Shi Yao Zhenzun who is back."

"Disciple meets Shi Yao Zhenzun!"

"Zhenzun, you, you're finally back!" This last sentence was said by Li Jiu.

Seeing Shi Yao again, Li Jiu's slightly depressed eyes immediately burst into a bright light, making his depressed appearance dissipate and refresh.

Seeing that Shi Yao had already become a true venerable god, Li Jiu was even more surprised in his heart.

And Shi Yao glanced at the ten people of the Xuanji Sect who were controlled by her coercion, and only asked Li Jiu:

"Where is Fu Mingzhou?"

"Uh-" Li Jiu, who was surprised and inexplicable, asked about this as soon as Shi Yao opened his mouth, and he was a little stuck for a while.

He originally wanted to persuade Shi Yao to quickly withdraw the coercion and not hurt the envoys of the Xuanji Sect by mistake......

But seeing Shi Yao's cold face, he couldn't say anything, so Li Jiu could only say first:

"More than fifty years ago, Mingzhou Zhenzun went to the Xuanji Sect and has not returned."

This was said by Zhuo Ping, who had just hurried from the basement of the City Lord's Mansion.

He walked over and bowed respectfully to Shi Yao: "Disciple to meet Zhenzun!" ”

Hearing Zhuo Ping say this, Shi Yao looked at the ten disciples of the Xuanji Sect again.

Seeing this, Zhuo Ping didn't wait for Shi Yao to continue to ask, so he took the initiative to solve her doubts and said:

"They are all emissaries of the Xuanji Sect......"

In recent years, the Wanyan Sect has often been targeted by the other six sects, and the sect has been in constant trouble and is in danger......

In the end, Feng Junan personally rushed to the Xuanji faction and met Fu Mingzhou, and under Fu Mingzhou's agreement, the Xuanji faction personally came forward to protect Wanyanzong.

But in order to be able to get the protection of the Xuanji Sect, Wanyanzong must hand over a batch of spirit stones as an offering every year, which can also be said to be a "shelter fee".

After listening to Zhuo Ping, Shi Yao nodded slightly.

In this way, now this Wanyan Sect can be regarded as a subsidiary sect of the Xuanji Sect.

And these ten people from the Xuanji Sect came to Wanyan Sect to collect offerings this year......

It's just that this "offering" was not sent to the door by Wan Yanzong himself, but by someone from the Xuanji Sect who came to collect it in person - this food is a little ugly, not like a big sect.

Or does the current Wanyan Sect not even have the ability to escort the "worship" to the door?

The thought in Shi Yao's mind was racing, so he stretched out his hand and grabbed it forward, and immediately snatched back the storage ring in the goatee monk's hand with fifty storage bags.

"In the future, Wanyan Sect does not need the protection of the Xuanji Sect. If you Xuanji Sect still want to continue to ask for this spirit stone, then let Fu Mingzhou get it in person. ”

As soon as Shi Yao's voice fell, the coercion that imprisoned the ten Xuanji Sect people immediately dissipated.

"Senior," the goatee monk bowed to Shi Yao, and the corners of his mouth moved slightly.

But under Shi Yao's indifferent gaze, he couldn't say anything.

The goatee monk didn't want to turn his face when Shi Yao Zhenzun suddenly appeared today, and he couldn't help but feel a little resentful in his heart for Wan Yanzong's rebellion.

But in front of Shi Yao, the goatee monk didn't dare to show the slightest dissatisfaction on his face.

Shi Yao: "This matter, you can go back and tell the truth as you can, and get out." ”

“…… Yes, seniors. ”

After the ten Xuanji Sect people left with all the Xuanji Sect disciples in the Inland Sea in embarrassment, Li Jiu's heart was anxious and complicated, but he was also a little hesitant, and he didn't dare to talk to Shi Yao for a while.

But Zhuo Ping didn't have this concern, and said directly to Shi Yao:

"True Venerable, the Xuanji Sect is one of the three major sects in Lingzhou, today we suddenly changed our hexagrams, and the disciples are afraid that they will be unfavorable to the Wanyan Sect in the future."

In recent years, the Xuanji Sect has taken a lot of spirit stones from Wan Yan Sect to worship, but now Wan Yan Sect has suddenly changed his hexagram, so that they can no longer get a spirit stone-

In this way, what Wan Yanzong did today directly showed that he had made a feud with the Xuanji faction.

The Wanyan Sect was already targeted by the other six sects, and now it has a feud with the Xuanji Sect.

I'm afraid that in the future, Wanyanzong's situation will be even worse.
