Chapter 176: Convergence
Chongguang coughed lightly, immediately straightened his clothes, stood up solemnly, and said very stylishly: "What is the matter with Yangyang calling the teacher?"
An Yang didn't bother to pay attention to his master's pretense, and asked in a serious tone, "Does Master know why the Demon Gate is targeting us?"
Chongguang sighed, his tone was full of vicissitudes and helplessness, as well as indescribable inexplicable gloom, and he said with a master's demeanor: "-I don't know." ”
Anyang: "......"
An Yang turned around and left, he was already desperate for this unreliable master.
After Anyang left, only Chongguang was left in the hall, and everyone else was outside trying to find a way to solve this crisis.
Chongguang sighed, raised his hand to his eyes and looked at it in a daze, and after a long time, he said with a bitter smile: "In this life, you really can't do bad things." ”
Sixteen years ago, he stumbled upon an ancient tome, and accidentally learned about the artifact from the few words in it.
Anyone wants an artifact, and Chongguang is no exception.
But the traces of the artifact were on the Xixin Venerable Lord, and he didn't dare to stretch out his hand no matter how much he wanted to, and he endured it for a hundred years.
Later, when the Lord of the Heart of Tranquility fell, his spies in Ziwei City accidentally learned that the Qingbo City Lord had the whereabouts of the artifact, and he was immediately ecstatic.
For this news, he conspired with Venerable Ning Yue and the Tiger, and took this opportunity to join forces with Qingbo to go to the Yu Clan.
His goal is clear, it is an artifact.
He had stayed in the Little Thousand Realm for too long, but if he ascended immediately, he couldn't let go of the Yuxiao Gate, and he wanted to take the Yuxiao Gate to ascend together.
Every disciple in the sect was carefully taught by him, and he was not at ease when he let go of anyone.
And the only thing that can fulfill his wish may be the legendary artifact.
But after he went to the Yu Clan, he didn't find the whereabouts of the artifact, and he didn't even see the Xixin Venerable Lord who had not fallen but was severely injured in Qing Bo's mouth.
This made Chongguang very disappointed, he obviously had the news of the artifact, and knew the traces of the artifact, but the artifact was like watching flowers in the mirror to him, fishing for the moon in the well, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get it.
And that trip, Qingbo also returned in vain.
In disappointment, Chongguang burned the entire Yu clan with a fire, and the people who did not die in the Yu clan were also burned to ashes by the fire.
The momentary anger at that time made Chongguang unable to sleep at night for so many years, and he regretted it in his heart, and his karma made him even more skilled.
Now the demon cultivator is only besieging and not attacking, and the goal is so obvious that he can't pretend that he doesn't know.
All traces are traceable, the cycle of heavenly principles, retribution is unpleasant, if you don't report it today, you will report it tomorrow.
Thousands of miles away from Yuxiao Gate, Ji Zhen and Ji Wenning just happened to stop Ling Juncong and Yan Fei who were coming.
Ji Zhen's gentle face sank, and he was also quite majestic.
That's right, the purpose of him stopping Ling Juncong was to ask the teacher for the sake of Xingshi: "Ling Shaoxia is dusty, and there are beautiful flowers around him, he really lives a fairy life." It's like I've been staying in a broken inn, waiting for my child to come back. ”
Ling Jun was a little weak when he saw Ji Zhen, he was paid to take on the task of protecting Rong Xian, but the task was not completed, and later he ran to Rouge City, and forgot all about delivering news to this person.
Although it was because too many things had happened that he didn't remember it, but breaking his promise is breaking his promise, and he is not a person who dares to do it.
Ling Jun smiled comfortingly at Yan Fei, who looked worried, and stepped forward to say to Ji Zhen: "It's my fault, I don't know what I can do to apologize to the owner?"
Ji Zhen smiled and said: "Where do I dare to work as a young man, you are a big man, and even the lord of a city is devoted to you." ”
Ling Jun subconsciously glanced at Yan Fei, and begged for mercy with some embarrassment: "Dongjia, I really know that I am wrong, I encountered too many things three years ago, and I can't divide my mind to take care of your task for a while, this matter is not right for me." ”
Ji Zhen could see that this kid was telling the truth, he was silent for a moment, looked sideways at the distance, and said lightly: "I owe this matter first, and when the matter of Yuxiaomen is over, I have something for you to do." ”
Ling Juncong hurriedly nodded and responded: "Okay, I will definitely do it for you when the time comes." ”
Send the creditor away first, it can be easy for a while, and then talk about it later.
Ji Zhen seemed to be able to see what Ling Juncong was thinking, and the curvature of the corners of his mouth was a little meaningful.
Ji Wenning, who had been silent beside him, looked at Ling Juncong with pity, and sighed in his heart: This kid is still young.
"Wen Ning, let's go first. Ji Zhen glanced at Ji Wenning and beckoned her to go towards the demon gate that surrounded Yuxiao Gate.
As soon as they left, several sword lights streaked through the air, but in the blink of an eye, they landed outside the Yuxiao Gate.
Those few sword shadows turned into human forms, and they were Shen Jiuliu.
The direction in which they stayed happened to confront the demon cultivators who were blocking the mountain gate.
"Great Elder, I just met an acquaintance, and I want to go and have a look first. Shen Jiuliu glanced at the demon cultivator opposite him and reported to the Great Elder who led the team this time.
"I'm going too. Lily of the valley pouted and pouted towards the Great Elder, but her eyes kept stopping at Shen Jiuliu.
Before the Great Elder could speak, Shen Jiuliu refused, "Senior Sister, I want to go alone." ”
Lily of the valley met his cold and firm gaze, knowing that she would definitely not get her wish, and walked behind the Great Elder with some reluctance and hung her head in frustration.
The Great Elder looked at his granddaughter distressedly, waved his hand and said angrily, "If you want to go, hurry up, don't get in the way of my old man's eyes here." ”
The three elders touched their beards and smiled, like a Maitreya Buddha, that kind of wise and foolish, and the posture of seeing through and not saying anything was quite mysterious.
Shen Jiuliu bowed his head towards the two elders, turned into a sword shadow and headed in the direction of Ling Juncong.
But at the moment when he was about to meet Ling Juncong, his figure flashed, turned in another direction and fell.
He put his hands behind his back, and his tone was cold and frosty: "Have you checked it out?"
Jian Liu flashed out, bowed, and said in a somewhat depressed tone: "The subordinates are incompetent, and they have not found out the purpose of the demon cultivation. ”
Shen Jiuliu looked at him sharply, his cold gaze as if it could tear through everything: "Didn't find out?
The slightly raised tail note carried infinite danger and impatience, making Kenroku feel unspeakable danger.
He hurriedly explained: "After the subordinates caught a few demon cultivators to search for souls, they found that the demon cultivators did not know the purpose of this operation, and they only obeyed the orders of the demon gate master. ”
Shen Jiuliu squinted, the cold danger in his eyes dissipated, and he turned back into the indifferent and cold Immortal: "What's wrong with Yuxiao Gate?"
"Returning to the Lord, the subordinates did not find anything abnormal. Kenroku replied cautiously.
He is also a little lacking in confidence, starting from becoming the shadow of the Lord, most of the tasks given to them by the Lord have not been completed, and anyone can replace them all, and no one will leave waste.
The Lord only reprimanded them, which can be regarded as magnanimity.
Shen Jiu was silent for a long time, and his clear voice was a little hoarse and low: "Xiaoxian's ...... Where?"
He couldn't say the word corpse no matter what, and he always felt that if he said those two words, Xiaoxian really didn't exist in the world.
Thinking of that gentle and pure woman, his heart ached faintly.
Jian Liu's expression hesitated, but he still replied: "The subordinates and subordinates found that there was a person in the Demon Gate, who was extremely similar to Doctor Rong. ”
Shen Jiuliu's eyes flashed, and he immediately suspected that this matter was a conspiracy: "How similar is it?"
"It's like a god. Jian Liu said affirmatively.
He secretly followed the man for two days, and found that the man seemed to be resurrected by Dr. Rong, acting in a manner, with a smile and a smile.
The only difference is that Dr. Rong is just a mortal, and that person obviously has cultivation.
"Who is she?" asked Shen Jiuliu.
He faintly hoped that the person was Xiao Xian, and Xiao Xian was actually alive and well.
But he clearly knew that Xiaoxian was really gone.
Three years ago, he watched Xiaoxian's breathing go down until it disappeared.
"Her name is Quinoa, and she is a hall master of the Demon Gate's stronghold in Rouge City. Kenroku spit out the information he had gotten without concealing anything.
"Quinoa?" Shen Jiuliu's expression moved, if he remembered correctly, quinoa should be a medicinal herb.
In the name of medicine, it is interesting.
Curiosity flashed in Shen Jiuliu's eyes, and he suddenly wanted to meet the person named Quinoa: "Where is she now?"
Jian Liu said without hesitation: "On the way to Yuxiao Gate." ”
Shen Jiu stayed for a long time, the Demon Gate called on the demon cultivators from all over the world to gather in Yuxiao Gate, she is a member of the Demon Gate, and she should also come.
"Tell me to go down and let Kensan follow her, and I'll go and see her in person when I have time." Shen Jiuliu ordered decisively.
Jian Liu immediately responded: "Yes, my subordinates receive orders." ”
Shen Jiuliu waved his hand, and Jian Liu left willingly.
Shen Jiu stayed in place and was silent for a while, his eyes were a little obscure, he always felt that the demon cultivator named Quinoa made him care inexplicably.
Suppressing the emotions in his heart, Shen Jiuliu turned around and walked in the direction of Ling Juncong.
And before and after Shen Jiuliu talked to his subordinates, it was only half a cup of tea, and Yun Youfeng also appeared here, and he had already met Ling Juncong.
They had just spoken a couple of words when they looked to the left at the same time.
"You Feng, Jun Cong, and Lord Yancheng, don't come unharmed. Shen Jiuliu walked over lightly, and his tone was so clear that he couldn't hear half of his joy and anger.
Yun Youfeng smiled, leaned over to Shen Jiuliu's side and said, "It's okay, it's okay." ”
He touched his nose, his eyes wandering a little.
Shen Jiuliu frowned, You Feng's appearance of doing something bad was really rare: "Anyway, what are you hiding from me?"
Yun Youfeng: "......" is seen!
Yun Youfeng cleared his throat and said with little confidence: "What, when I returned to the City Lord's Mansion from Shiqiao Stream three years ago, I found that someone had stolen the things from the City Lord's Mansion. ”
Shen Jiuliu's eyes were cold, if he lost something ordinary, You Feng would not be like this, the only thing that made him feel embarrassed to face himself was because the lost thing was too precious and related to him.
"It's Xiaoxian's thing. He said in the affirmative.
Hearing the word 'Xiaoxian', Ling Juncong and Yan Fei also looked over.
Ai Ai said: "I also found out when I arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, Rong Xian's house has been turned over, and the cabinet where the medical books are placed in her room is gone!!"
What kind of thief actually likes to read books so much that he even moved the cabinet, which is too bold.
"I've been looking for the past three years, but I haven't heard anything. Yun Youfeng hung his head and said, "Otherwise, you can scold me." "He'll feel better that way.
Shen Jiuliu's expression was a little dazed, and he faintly seemed to see the person leaning against the window reading a book, and he hadn't felt the feeling of being quiet for a long time.
"That's it, it's lost. Shen Jiu was silent for a long time and then said, his tone was flat and he couldn't hear any emotion.
People are gone, what can you do with books.
In the past three years, Shen Jiuliu did not put away all Rong Xian's relics, nor did he go to Xuanhua Mountain to see where Rong Xian lived.
He just stayed in the holy mountain to cultivate, and deceived himself and told himself that Xiaoxian was still alive somewhere in the outside world.
Maybe one day she will return to Ziwei City to read the medical books she cherished so much, and maybe she will return to her residence in Xuanhua Mountain and rest quietly for a while......
Ling Juncong sighed and muttered to himself: "The people are gone, keeping things is just to increase the sadness, and it's good to lose them." ”
Yan Fei saw that the atmosphere was a little dull, so she changed the topic and said, "Several, are we going to Yuxiao Gate now?"
Ling Juncong thought about it for a while, and said with a calm expression: "We just came here today, let's go and find out some news, and enter the Yuxiao Gate early tomorrow morning." ”
Shen Jiuliu bowed his head and said that he had no opinion.
Yun Youfeng immediately echoed: "Listen to you." ”
He lost Rong Xian's things, and now he has no confidence to speak in front of Shen Jiuliu.
And Yan Fei was already with Ling Juncong, so of course she wouldn't have other ideas.
After agreeing on the agreement, several people acted together, and they took care of each other.
Night, Demon Repair Base Camp.
Qu Lang rubbed the sun with a headache, why can't Yuxiao Gate be opened so much, the magic gate is surrounded by cars and horses, just let them think about whether they have done something they shouldn't have done and taken in people who shouldn't have been taken in.
As long as they hand over the people who don't belong to Yuxiaomen, then everyone can save some trouble, but they are unmoved.
Qu Lang angrily picked up the inkstone and smashed it out, spilling ink on the ground.
Qu Qianqian walked in when she heard the movement, turned a blind eye to the messy ground, and said coquettishly: "Dad, what kind of tantrum do you have on the big night." ”
Qu Lang waved his hand irritably and said, "What do the children know, go back to sleep." ”
Qu Qianqian snorted twice, walked behind Qu Lang, gently pressed her temples for him with her fingertips, and saw that her father closed his eyes comfortably, Qu Qianqian's eyes rolled, and asked in a low voice: "Dad, is your sudden action this time an order from the lord?"
Qu Lang pinched her wrist, opened his eyes and warned in a deep voice: "You'd better not ask about these things, Dad is also for your good, what you should know won't hide from you, don't ask if you shouldn't know, the fastest death is often the one who knows the most." ”
These gloomy words really frightened Qu Qianqian, so that she didn't dare to say another word.
Yun Youfeng stood beside Shen Jiuliu, and showed with his actions that he followed Shen Jiuliu, and Shen Jiuliu said that he would go wherever he went.
