Chapter 178: Unexpected Question

I can be regarded as capsizing in the gutter this time.

While staring at the strange mask, Ling Yi thought with annoyance in his heart.

Everything Elder Huang had said and done before was too true.

It is really true, with Ling Yi's consistent vigilance, in the face of huge interests, there is still an instant loss.

At this moment, what was constantly magnifying in Ling Yi's mind was the only small flaw that Elder Huang had left him with before this.

It was the sneer that made him feel weird.

At that time, when Ling Yi found out about this sneer, he was indeed suspicious of Elder Huang in his heart.

However, the four reasons that Elder Huang put forward later were all so reasonable that Ling Yi couldn't think of anything suspicious at all.

At the same time, in fact, Ling Yi himself was not lax.

Maybe even he didn't realize that when the huge crisis that had been in front of him after his rebirth was lifted, that is, after Lin Yan and Lin Yu's father and son were killed, he actually lost the prudence and caution he had at the beginning.

At that time, he was forced by the death crisis, and the whole person was in a tense state, and no one believed in the Scorching Sun Sect, and the only one he could rely on was himself.

It was precisely because of this that when Wang Ge wanted to put him to death twice, and when Mu Qi did not hesitate to risk his life and set up a vicious secret plan in the Scorching Sun Forest, Ling Yi was able to find out one step earlier, so as to make the most correct response.

At that time, he was just the most humble and powerless little disciple in the Scorching Sun Sect.

But what about later?

He met the sect master Lu Xinghe, who was also in danger.

The two of them can just shoot it off, and they will unite together for their own destiny to deal with their common enemy, the Lin father and son!

The results were good.

Lu Xinghe retained his position as the sect master, and Ling Yi also jumped from a powerless official disciple to a great hero in front of Lu Xinghe, and also became a personal disciple of the sect master of the scorching sun!

This change in identity is not insignificant!

Even though Ling Yi did not become arrogant and arrogant because of this, he was still seriously and diligently refining his martial arts cultivation.

But I have to say that the sense of urgency in his heart is gone.

To hone martial arts, it is more about wanting to have higher and stronger strength, so that you can live a better life in this otherworldly continent where martial arts are respected.

Unconsciously, Ling Yi's goal had changed from living to living better in the blink of an eye.

In line with that saying, the greater the risk, the greater the benefit.

At the beginning, his risk was obvious, that is, it was about his own life and death, and he had no choice but to be cautious.

But after that, is he still at risk?

Except for being taken aback by the Supreme Elder Feng Ze when he was in the Spiritual Qi Cave Heaven, and then there was no danger, Ling Yi himself no longer had any risk.

Even when facing Elder Huang, Ling Yi's mentality at that time was actually more about looking at the loser who lost his position from the perspective of a victor.

Even if Ling Yi didn't want to admit it, in fact, he had to admit that he ...... Inflated.

Otherwise, if it was placed in the past, when there was a death crisis everywhere, just Elder Huang's suspicious smile was enough to make Ling Yi think about it many times, and the decision he would make in the end would definitely be a refusal.

But at that time, in order to get the Scorching Sun Order, and for the tens of millions of contribution points promised by Elder Huang, he found a reason for himself to ignore that smile.

The reason he was looking for was...... The greater the risk, the greater the benefit!

But the irony was that this time the risk he thought was coming from Elder Huang's smile.

That's why I got headlong into it.

Even later, because Elder Huang asked him to take over the task to cover up people's ears, Ling Yi felt that Elder Huang was really forced to the point of helplessness this time, and he could only rely on himself to help him.

But is that really the case?

Reality gave him a hard slap in the face.

It turned out that Ling Yi was still too young, and the vigilance he thought he had always maintained had actually changed his taste, directly leading him into a real crisis.

It wasn't even until now that he suddenly realized that when he left the Burning Sun Sect, the tail that bit behind him was not anyone else who was blushing at him.

And it was clearly the person sent by Elder Huang himself in front of him.

It was precisely because of the existence of that person that Ling Yi was convinced that he was being followed.

That's why when Elder Huang proposed that in order to hide people's eyes and ears, he abandoned the official road and rushed to Xianyang Province from the mountain path, Ling Yicai didn't feel the slightest inappropriateness.

He even thought that Elder Huang's proposal was the most correct choice at the moment.

As everyone knows, this most correct choice may be the same for the other party, but for himself, it is a bad choice.

"Elder, what do you mean by this?"

Ling Yi stared at Elder Huang who was wearing a mask, and while questioning in a deep voice, he was also secretly channeling the dragon fire in the spiritual world into the meridians.

The dragon fire could burn everything, and naturally it could also devour the external internal force that sealed his acupoint, but it would take a little time, and Ling Yi didn't dare to release a large amount of dragon fire, otherwise it would definitely be discovered by the other party.

"It's nothing, I just want to ask you a question this time. ”

Elder Huang's cold voice came from behind the mask, completely no longer the flattering tone he had for Ling Yi before.

I don't know if it's the face of the bloody mask, Elder Huang's tone was filled with indescribable killing intent, it seemed that Ling Yi couldn't answer well, and he would be killed by him immediately.

"What do you want to ask?"

Ling Yi secretly used the dragon fire to impact the acupoint, and asked silently.

"What is the relationship between you and Feng Ze?"

And Elder Huang's next sentence made Ling Yi stunned.

He never thought that the purpose of the other party's efforts to catch him was actually related to Feng Ze?

The strange color in his eyes flashed slightly, and Ling Yi said with a surprised expression: "Elder Taishang, how revered his status is in the Burning Sun Sect, what can I have to do with him?"

"Boy, you'd better think through before answering!"

Elder Huang clasped his hands together, and with a click, a crisp and piercing pop sounded from the bone joints on his fists, and in Ling Yi's ears, it was as if he heard the sound of a sharp blade coming out of its sheath.

"Elder Huang, is there any misunderstanding here?"

Ling Yi said with a calm face: "I don't know what you have heard in the sect, but I can be sure that there is really no relationship between me and the Supreme Elder, at most, there was a misunderstanding when I was cultivating in the Fire Cloud Wall, and he took it to my master, that is, the sect master, and taught me a lesson." ”

The word master was bitten very hard by him.

In order to get out of trouble, the current Ling Yi naturally did everything he could, and when he mentioned Lu Xinghe, he also wanted to put pressure on Elder Huang, so that the other party would not dare to mess with him.
