Chapter 250: A Group of Old Men
"I promise you." He Zhan stepped down the steps, slowly came to Wang Li's side, and said word by word: "I promise you, I will never let Miss be hurt in the slightest before I die." β
"Father!"
He Yu shouted anxiously, but was interrupted by He Zhan waving his hand: "As long as you let Miss go back with us, I He Zhan promised you that you will definitely die in front of Miss." β
Wang Li glanced at He Zhan deeply, he saw firmness in the other party's eyes, and finally nodded: "I believe in you." β
Wang Li was not naΓ―ve enough to ask the other party to write down any guarantee, after all, what can that piece of paper represent at their level.
"Wang Li!" At this time, Blue Phoenix walked out of the room, she quickly came to Wang Li's side, grabbed her sleeve, and said with some anxiety: "You really want to hand me over to them?" β
Wang Li found that Blue Phoenix's eyes were red, touched her head with some pity, and said with a smile: "Phoenix, the current situation is no longer something I can control. If what happened just now happens again, there's a good chance I won't be able to save you. β
"I'm not afraid." Blue Phoenix hugged Wang Li all of a sudden and put his head in his arms: "As long as you are by my side, I am not afraid of anything." β
Seeing such a situation, the father and son of the He family on the side glanced at each other and saw each other's helplessness.
If it weren't for the fact that Blue Phoenix was too dependent on Wang Li, they would have started to rob people a long time ago.
However, they were also secretly glad in their hearts, if they were to rob people like the Five Poisons Sect, it was estimated that they would not be able to go this far.
Wang Li found that the blue phoenix was holding on to himself for fear that he would disappear as soon as he let go, so he smiled and comforted: "Don't worry, I won't leave you alone." β
"But you ..... just now" Even if Blue Phoenix came out late, he still heard his conversation with He Yu, which is why he was so nervous.
"I promised you to go back with them, but I didn't say I wouldn't follow you."
β......β
Damn, after making trouble for so long, this guy still doesn't feel at ease to hand over the blue phoenix to himself.
He Yu secretly rolled his eyes, and then set his eyes on his father.
He Zhan hesitated for a moment, and asked with some uncertainty: "Brother Wang means to return to the Divine Dragon Sect with us?" β
"What? Not welcome? Wang Li raised his eyebrows and asked rhetorically.
Nima! Why did I make such a promise when I knew that!
He Zhan was now sure that he was put on a position by Wang Li, and said with a wry smile: "Of course you can, but the agreement we made just now ......"
"Phoenix, let's go!" Without saying a word, Wang Li took Lan Phoenix's hand and turned around and walked towards the outside of the courtyard.
"Wait a minute," He Zhan was taken aback by Wang Li's move, and hurriedly shouted, "Our agreement is still valid." β
"What a cunning fellow!" Finding that Wang Li had stopped, the He family's father and son couldn't help but curse in their hearts.
This guy obviously wanted to send the Blue Phoenix back to the Divine Dragon Sect, but before that, he actually cheated himself.
"Okay, don't cry and lose your face, Phoenix is not your young lady, what can you do to protect her safety?" Wang Li said and threw a smug meaning towards the blue phoenix, and the blue phoenix looked a little anxious.
Forget it, the pit is the pit! Anyway, the people above haven't said what about the blue phoenix?
He Zhan sighed slightly, and then nodded to He Yu, who opened the gate of the courtyard willingly.
On the way, He Yu and He Zhan were in front, and Wang Li and Blue Phoenix were slightly behind. He Yu glanced at He Zhan, who was speechless, and said in a low voice: "Father, you know the value of the young lady to our Divine Dragon Sect, why do you still agree to their request?" β
He Zhan's body paused slightly, kept the same speed and walked forward, and said faintly: "Just repay someone's kindness!" β
Similarly, Blue Phoenix also discussed with Wang Li what had just happened.
"Wang Li, why didn't you ask them to hand over the holy medicine just now, presumably the Divine Dragon Sect also has the holy medicine you need, right?"
Finding that the blue phoenix's eyes blinked, Wang Li touched her head with his hand, squinted his eyes and said, "Looking for the holy medicine is to save people, but I also want to protect you." Did I say I'd kill one person to save another? β
"You mean He Zhan is lying to us."
Wang Li glanced at the father and son in front of him, and his voice was full of playfulness: "I don't know if I can lie or not, but I know that things are not that simple." β
Suddenly, Blue Phoenix stopped and looked at Wang Li seriously.
Finding the blue phoenix's movements, Wang Li also stopped, touched his face with his hand, and asked with a smile: "Did you find that I am handsome again!" β
"Wang Li."
"Huh?"
"Thank you."
"Actually, it's nothing, I just promised a certain ...... before leaving"
Before Wang Li finished speaking, he found that the blue phoenix brought his red lips to him and pecked him lightly on the face.
Coincidentally, when the father and son of the He family saw this scene, they couldn't help but roll their eyes.
Get! The young lady of their Divine Dragon Sect can't escape someone's clutches at all.
......
I don't know how long they walked, but He Zhan and the others finally stopped in front of a large complex.
It can be seen that this should be the headquarters of the Divine Dragon Sect, and there are heavy guards at the door.
The sharp-eyed guards found He Zhan and hurriedly ran over, and said with a respectful face: "Elder He, the elders have been waiting in the council hall for a while. β
"Got it!" He Zhan nodded, turned to the blue phoenix behind him and said, "Miss, it's already here." β
The blue phoenix shrank back, but was slapped by Wang Li, and finally could only pout and nod.
After explaining to the guards, He Zhan took Wang Li and walked straight towards the deepest part of this palace.
After walking for almost ten minutes, they finally stopped at a building..... It is called a building because it can no longer be measured by ordinary houses.
Directly in front of them are two pillars carved with two dragons with long teeth and claws, and the carvings are so lifelike that they seem to be about to break away from the pillars and soar from the front.
Behind the pillar is a staircase, all of which are made of white marble, and people can see their own reflections when they step on it.
"Yo! I didn't expect your Divine Dragon Sect to be quite magnificent. Wang Li touched the giant dragon on the pillar with his hand, squinted his eyes and said, "If He Yu doesn't say it, I don't know that your Divine Dragon Sect has been pressed by the Five Poisons Sect for a while. β
He Yu glared at him fiercely when he heard this, and then twisted his head away. On the contrary, He Zhan said calmly: "Miss, all the elders of the Divine Dragon Sect are inside, as long as you get their approval, you will be the holy daughter of the Divine Dragon Sect." β
"Wait...... Do you mean that the phoenix must also be recognized by the old guys inside in order to be protected by your Divine Dragon Sect? Wang Li asked with wide eyes.
Seeing Wang Li's expression, He Zhan smiled bitterly in his heart, but said quietly on the surface: "Of course, this is just a formality. β
"Your grandmother, if those old guys dare to embarrass the phoenix, don't blame me for not giving you face." After Wang Li finished speaking, he took the lead in pushing open the door and walked inside.
He Zhan's father and son glanced at each other when they heard this, and a trace of helplessness appeared on their faces. Now they are all wondering whether it was right or wrong to agree to let Wang Li come with them.
Inside the hall, the elders of the Divine Dragon Sect had already heard the movement outside, and one craned his neck to see what the holy daughter of their Divine Dragon Sect looked like. But the first thing that caught their eyes was a young man, and this young man was arrogant, as if he had stepped into a vegetable market instead of the hall of the Divine Dragon Sect.
Suddenly, a voice rang out throughout the council hall.
"Didn't you say it was a saint? How did you become a man? Isn't our intelligence accurate? β
"Nonsense, the information of our Divine Dragon Sect has always been very accurate."
"Tell me what's going on?"
"Maybe, maybe maybe the saint will look like this!"
"Hey, what are you old men muttering there?" Wang Li walked in with a big grin and pointed to the distance.
Geezer?
As an elder of the Divine Dragon Sect, he can be regarded as a high-ranking authority, and any of them here is also a frontier official in Miao Jiang, and the other party dares to call them an old man.
The voice stopped abruptly, and many people looked at Wang Li with wide eyes and disbelief.
"Ahem......" He Zhan, who was walking behind, saw Wang Li making such an oolong as he entered the door, and his face suddenly couldn't hang up, he hurried in and shouted loudly: "Elders, the holy woman is back." β
Immediately, the blue phoenix slowly appeared in front of everyone's eyes under the signal of He Zhan's eyes.
"Oh, it turns out that this little girl is the holy daughter of our Divine Dragon Sect!"
"Startled me, just now I was thinking that if the holy daughter of our Divine Dragon Sect grows into that virtue, how will our Divine Dragon Sect see people in the future!"
"This little doll looks quite handsome, and it has a bit of the style of a saint back then."
After He Zhan's introduction, many elders nodded, looking at the position of the Holy Maiden of the Blue Phoenix, they couldn't run away.
"Elders, I've found the Holy Maiden, shouldn't I announce her identity?" He Zhan was still thinking about the promise he had made in the courtyard, so he hurriedly urged.
"Of course, the position of our Divine Dragon Sect Holy Maiden has been shelved for more than ten years, and the old man can't wait for a moment now."
"I didn't expect it, since our Divine Dragon Sect has a saint again, it's really God's sight!"
"Wait!" Just when everyone thought that the dust had settled, a mysterious voice sounded in the corner: "Let's put aside the matter of the saint first, now should we investigate what the kid said just now?" β
Forehead...... I remember that the kid seemed to scold their old man just now, and now that the saint has appeared, who was that kid just now?
For a while, the people in the conference hall all turned their eyes to Wang Li on the side.
Seeing this, He Zhan smiled bitterly on his face, this guy is really a troublemaker!
