At the same time that Shen Shi and Gan Ze took a boat to Demon Island, in the Xuanri Hall on Qingyu Island, the atmosphere was a little dignified, many disciples of the Lingxiao Sect got up early and looked around expressionlessly, while in the main hall of Xuanri Hall, there were three people at this moment, compared to the somewhat tense atmosphere outside, this main hall seemed relatively relaxed.

Wang Gen was one of the three, but unlike usual, he did not sit in the first seat, but gave up this position to another white-haired old man, and he accompanied him in the lower seat with a respectful face. In addition to these two people, there is another person who is actually Zhong Qingzhu, but she looks a little cramped and uneasy, seems to be a little nervous, and there is no place for her in the hall, so she stands quietly between the other two, occasionally going up to pour tea and water or something.

The white-haired old man looked relaxed, and his attitude was also gentle, and while chatting and laughing with Wang Gan, his eyes occasionally swept over Zhong Qingzhu's body, and his eyes would also show a little satisfaction. This demeanor was naturally seen by Wang Gen on the side, and said with a smile:

"Uncle Le, you are indeed as wise as a torch, in the past three years, Senior Sister Qingzhu's cultivation in the formation has improved by leaps and bounds, and it can only be described as talented. ”

The white-haired old man laughed, and there was a hint of self-satisfaction on his face, and said: "When I met her by chance at the Zhong family three years ago, I also saw that she seemed to have some qualifications, and it was really a waste to be a girl who poured tea and cooked in the Zhong family, so on a whim, I asked Zhong Chengji for it, but I really didn't think that she could do it like this in three years." ”

Wang Gen laughed, and a few more praises, this white-haired old man's name is Le Jingshan, he is one of the twenty-two Yuan Dan Realm great truths in the Lingxiao Sect, and he also presides over one of the important halls, which is not trivial in the interior of the Lingxiao Sect, even with Wang Gan's current status, he must sit respectfully when he sees him.

After a while, I only heard Le Jingshan turn his head and smile at Zhong Qingzhu: "Qingzhu, when you started back then, I also asked someone to give you Senior Brother Wang, and asked him to take care of you, now you can have a little achievement in the past three years, among which Senior Brother Wang Gen has really contributed a lot." Take it to heart and thank him quickly. ”

Wang Gen hurriedly smiled and waved his hand, Zhong Qingzhu over there agreed, bowed his head and bowed respectfully, Wang Gen smiled and helped up, turned his head to Le Jingshan and said: "Why should Uncle be so polite, Senior Sister Qingzhu is talented, I also value it very much, and it will become a great weapon in the future. ”

Le Jingshan stroked his palms and laughed, looking very happy, the two chatted a few more words, Le Jingshan turned his head to Zhong Qingzhu and said: "Qingzhu, my visit to Qingyu Island this time is just a routine inspection within the sect, and I have no other intentions, but seeing that you are now practicing Xiaocheng, it is really good, but you must not be complacent, you still need to cultivate hard." When I break through the Ning Yuan Realm in the future, I will give you a clear master's brother and bring you into the Array Hall, and then it will be a new world, understand?"

Zhong Qingzhu nodded heavily with gratitude and a little excitement on his face. Le Jingshan smiled: "Okay, you still have to do things and cultivate, so you don't have to talk to the two of us, and go busy with you." ”

Zhong Qingzhu agreed, bowed respectfully to these two people who held important positions in the Lingxiao Sect, and then walked out of the room quickly.

Seeing Zhong Qingzhu's slender figure disappear at the door, Wang Gen turned his head and said to Le Jingshan with a smile: "The formation has always been difficult, one looks at the financial resources, and the other looks at the natural understanding, Senior Sister Zhong has obtained the spirit crystals on the island in the past three years is only the usual number, but the entry in the formation can far surpass others, it can only be said that the talent is different, and the understanding is wonderful." ”

Le Jingshan smiled and said nothing, obviously still very satisfied with his vision, but soon his smile faded, and he glanced at Wang Gan, but said with a little meaning: "Senior nephew Wang, there is a storm in the sect today, and you can be regarded as a man of the hour." ”

Wang Gan's face froze, he raised his eyes to look at Le Jingshan, and after a moment of silence, he showed a wry smile, and said, "Uncle, those junior brothers and sisters below don't know what is going on, can you still not know, why do you want to laugh at me again?"

Le Jingshan smiled and said leisurely: "Now that the Gan family regards you as a thorn in the side, and the line of the senior brother is in charge, I can't say that Du Tiejian will have a little jealousy of you, not to mention that even Yunni, one of the five elders, is afraid that he has a little opinion of you." ”

Wang Gen was silent.

Le Jingshan got up and took his hands, walked a few steps back and forth in the hall, and said lightly: "A few years ago, I was thinking in my heart, Senior Brother Mingyang is really good, he gave birth to a powerful son, and a powerful apprentice. It's a pity that now it seems that it is better to kiss his son. ”

Wang Yan stood up, his expression was straight, and said: "Uncle Shi is cautious, the family teacher is far-sighted, and the plan is like the sea, which is not something that my foolish people can snoop on, and my nephew really dare not listen to such speculative words." ”

Le Jingshan glanced at him deeply, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said, "I really dare not listen?"

Wang Yan nodded and said, "I really don't dare to listen." ”

Le Jingshan took a step forward and said, "But don't you really have anything else in your heart?"

Wang Yan was silent for a moment, and said categorically: "I don't think about it. ”

Le Jingshan stared at him for a while, then suddenly smiled, turned around and walked away two steps to the side, and then seemed to remember something, and then turned his head to Wang Yan and smiled: "What do you think of my array in the sect?"

Wang Gen was stunned, a little didn't understand what this uncle meant, but after hesitating for a moment, he still said calmly: "There are many entrances to the upper hall of Jinhong Mountain, but it is still respected by the seven halls of the Danqi Array Beast Book Treasure Technique, and the Shutang Technique Hall is like this, the array under the leadership of the senior uncle has worked hard for decades, and the strength has greatly improved, in my opinion, among the halls in the sect, the strength should be ranked among the top three." ”

Le Jingshan stared at him, his face was flat, and said, "But I can't even enter the list of the five elders." ”

Wang Gan's face changed instantly, and he even felt a chill on his back.

Le Jingshan suddenly smiled again, regained his previous gentle demeanor, and said: "Okay, I've seen it when I come down, and if there is nothing to do, I'll go back to the mountain first." ”

Saying that, he walked out, Wang Gen hurriedly followed and sent him out of the door, and when he arrived at the gate, Le Jingshan's footsteps paused slightly, glanced at Wang Gan, and said with a smile: "Do things well, you will naturally have a good future in the future, if you encounter any difficulties, you can also come to me, an old man, maybe you can help." I'm optimistic about you. ”

Wang Yan bowed deeply and said in a low voice, "Disciple understands. ”

Le Jingshan nodded and turned to leave.

Wang Yan slowly straightened up, watching this Yuan Dan Realm master uncle leave, and after a long time, he silently turned around and returned to the house, when he was alone in a room and no one was around, a trace of solemnity slowly appeared on his face.

※※※

When the huge demon island came into view again, Shen Shi only felt that it was no different from the previous two times he had visited, it was still the scenery of undulating mountains and dense forests, and even the roar of beasts coming from the depths of the mountain range didn't sound anything unusual.

Standing on the deck, he couldn't help but sneak a glance at Gan Ze, compared to Gan Ze, who came to the Demon Island again this time, he no longer had the calm bearing he had when he came over last time, let alone the scenery of everyone surrounding the stars and the moon, because on the deck of this big ship, apart from him at this moment, there was only Shen Shi alone.

Looking at the past, although Gan Ze's face was quite calm, there was still a somewhat complicated look in his eyes, and it was obvious that he had a lot of indescribable thoughts about this island. Shen Shi turned his gaze away, watching the big ship slowly approach the seawall and dock, and couldn't help but secretly think in his heart, for a character like Gan Ze, the distress on Demon Island a few days ago would be the first major ordeal he encountered in his fifteen-year career?

But no matter how Gan Ze is, in the final analysis, it still has nothing to do with Shen Shi himself, this thought passed through his heart, but he soon left it behind. When the big ship stopped, Xu Yanzhi and Zeng Zhibai also came over again, in addition to reiterating the new rules on this demon island again, it was to tell the two of them to be cautious.

Shen Shi and Gan Ze both honestly listened to the promise, but when they got off the boat, they were suddenly stopped by Zeng Zhibai, and the two turned their heads to look at him, only to see Zeng Zhibai's face a little sad, sighed, and said: "Although it is unlikely, but when you walk on the demon island, please pay a little attention to it, in case you can find it...... There are some traces of Senior Brother Niu Xiong, please come back and tell me quickly. ”

Gan Ze lowered his head silently, his face was a little not good-looking, but Shen Shi nodded and agreed.

Then the two of them got off the boat, the long seawall was constantly washed by the sea, and there were at least a dozen or twenty people who walked this road on weekdays, but now there were only two of them, and they suddenly seemed extremely lonely.

Stepping on the Demon Island, a strange emotion or pressure was invisibly enveloped, making Shen Shi and Gan Ze silent, the two glanced at each other, and slowly walked forward one after the other.

Along the way, the two didn't talk to each other anymore, until they reached the outside of the forest, Gan Ze, who was walking in front, stopped, turned to look at Shen Shi, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Shen Shi, do you want to enter the forest?"

Shen Shi shook his head and said, "I don't have enough Taoism, so I still plan to find some low-level demon beasts just outside the forest, on the edge of the beach." After saying that, he asked rhetorically, "Do you want to go in?"

Gan Ze nodded and said, "Yes." ”

Shen Shi was silent for a moment, nodded, Gan Ze didn't say anything more, turned around and took a deep breath, looked at the deep and dense woods in front of him, and walked towards the forest.

At this moment, he suddenly heard a voice from behind him, saying, "Ganze." ”

Gan Ze paused, turned to look at Shen Shi, and said, "What's wrong?"

Shen Shi said: "Be careful, quit when you encounter danger, your life is important, and you won't be ashamed." ”

Gan Ze looked at him, and after a while, a smile slowly appeared on his face, nodded and said softly: "I know, you should be careful." ”

Shen Shi smiled, waved at him, and walked towards the beach next to him. Ganze glanced at his back, and then, without hesitation, turned and walked into the woods.

The two teenagers separated outside this dense forest, the waves were surging, the sea breeze was blowing, and the roar of the beast in the depths of the distant mountain range suddenly came over measuringly, echoing over this mysterious and dangerous demon island.
