Chapter Forty-Three: Everyone Gathers to Seek Great Things
Yan Leizi played with the yellow paper in his hand, stared at the crystal silk thread for a while, and said to himself: "Old guy Situ has a lot of collections, and he actually tied the letterhead with ice silk, the toughness and hardness are excellent, and the non-fire master can't break it, and the secrecy work is good." ”
After that, a purple flame burst out from the tip of the index finger of Yan Leizi's right hand, and with his left hand, he picked up the yellow paper, and moved the part of the ice silk slightly closer to the flame on the fingertip, and after a while, he saw that the original crystal ice silk gradually melted and dripped.
Yan Leizi put away the flames, shook off the originally rolled up yellow paper, and scanned the contents of the book on the yellow paper. After reading it, Yan Leizi pinched the yellow paper in the palm of his hand, and as soon as the red light appeared in his hand, the paper ignited, turned into ashes, and floated in the air.
"Those guys are very anxious, it's almost time to wait for Luo Ming to come back and make some preparations, Feng Lingtian, it's been thirty years, it's time to make a break. After speaking, Yan Leizi narrowed his eyes again and settled down.
Over there, Xuan Lie, Luo Cheng and Luo Ming rode the Purple Flame Horse all the way through the wind and sand, and after a while, the shadow of a tall tower finally appeared in the fog ahead.
Luo Cheng sighed there: "After so many years, I finally came back here. ”
Luo Ming patted him on the shoulder and said, "Brother, after so many years, look at it, Master Zun he will figure it out one day." Although you are just a border city and county guard now, but the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, plus the power of the Xuanhuo Palace, everyone will let you score three points. This is the life of others. ”
"Luo Cheng, it's not a good thing for you to leave the Xuanhuo Palace, the current Xuanhuo Palace has changed, and the blessings and misfortunes are unknown. After Xuan Lie finished speaking, he ignored the two of them, but looked into the distance alone through the curtain, not knowing what he was thinking.
After a while, the three of them arrived at the bottom of the tower, and the huge arched stone door was carved on the left and right sides near the joint, and each half of the scorching totem was carved on it, surrounded by nine flames, and the surrounding area was scattered with ancient textures.
Xuan Lie looked at the totem on the door and was a little stunned, thinking to himself: "The symbol of my Xuanhuo Palace represents light, courage and majesty, and I don't know if your decision back then will make you regret it." ”
There were two masked guards wearing dark red robes standing on the left and right in front of the door, and when they saw that it was Xuan Lie, they stepped forward and saluted respectfully, looked at Luo Cheng who was accompanying him, and said with some embarrassment: "Greetings to the second elder, Senior Brother Luo, this... Luo Cheng has been expelled from the sect, and according to the door rules, he is not allowed to enter, and you also know that the three elders are in charge of all the rules and precepts of the sect, if the three elders know that we will let him in privately, it is indispensable to refine the soul of the demonic fire. ”
Xuan Lie waved his hand to signal them to stand back and said, "Can that old fellow of the Fire Demon still control me?" ”
The guards knew that Xuan Lie usually had a strong temperament, and there was no good fruit to eat if he continued, although they belonged to the faction of the three elders, and the three elders would not stand up for them for such a trivial matter. It can only be withdrawn and released.
Xuan Lie took the two of them straight up to the eighth floor of the tower to the entrance of the council hall, and happened to meet a middle-aged man in a black robe embroidered with flame patterns at the door of the council hall, only to hear the man's voice like a bell to the guard on duty at the door and asked: "Where is the palace master now, the old man has something to see him." ”
The guard replied: "Back to the words of the three elders, the palace master should still be discussing matters in the hall now, and if the three elders have something to do, go and spread the word." ”
The third elder waved his hand and said, "I'll just look for him directly, it's none of your business." After that, the three elders were about to walk into the main hall, when they heard a sound of footsteps behind them, and when they looked back, they saw that it was the three of Xuan Lie.
"Isn't this Elder Xuan Lie, what's the matter? Is there something to find the palace master?" The third elder stopped and said to Xuan Lie, and also glanced at Luo Cheng, but since it was brought by Xuan Lie, he didn't want to make things difficult for Luo Cheng too much.
Xuan Lie just nodded and ignored him, and walked towards the main hall, Luo Cheng Luo Ming saw that the three elders nodded, and followed Xuan Lie and prepared to go in.
At this time, the three elders came to Luo Ming in a flash, glared at Luo Ming and asked in a low voice: "Luo Ming, you stop, the old man has something to ask you." ”
Luo Ming knew in his heart that the old guy must be asking him about Qiu Zijing, and he thought that Qiu Zijing must be more than lucky.
However, he was not afraid that the fire demon would blame him, after all, Yan Leizi was very good to him, and besides, he really didn't know what happened to Qiu Zijing after he separated from them.
Luo Ming Zhengse responded: "I don't know what the third uncle asked about the nephew?"
The fire demon snorted coldly and said, "My apprentice went out of the palace with you to run errands before, and Xuan Lie and his apprentice also went with him, right?"
Luo Ming nodded, and the fire demon continued: "Why did Zijing die?!Don't think I don't know about the fights that you juniors usually have, if you find out what happens when you collaborate to frame your fellow disciples, even Yan Leizi can't protect you." ”
Luo Ming was very calm at this time, he knew that the fire demon was usually harsh, and Qiu Zijing had always disliked him, so he said: "Third Uncle is angry, I will wait to come back to report the details of this matter to Shizun, we still go to Shizun first, and the nephew will naturally tell the truth later." ”
"Well, yes, I'd like to see how clever you are. With that, the fire demon walked straight to the temple.
Xuan Lie and the three of them also followed, and the four of them arrived at the main hall after a while, Yan Leizi was looking down at all kinds of documents, all of which were daily sect affairs.
Seeing the arrival of the four of them, especially Xuan Lie and the Fire Demon, Yan Leizi was a little unexpected, and he opened his mouth and asked, "What's the matter with the two elders, why did you come with the apprentice?"
The fire demon hurriedly said: "Luo Ming, it's your turn, I want a reasonable explanation." ”
Luo Ming stepped forward and said respectfully: "Master Zun, this time I went with the two junior disciples to carry out the task assigned by the master, the two junior brothers disappeared one after another when they were tracking, and later found that the life talisman of Senior Brother Xuan was shattered and knew that he had suffered an accident, so I went to seek my brother's help, who knew that the opponent's strength was unfathomable..."
Luo Ming told the details of what happened before, and then Xuan Lie also added some of the things that happened after he intervened.
Yan Leizi frowned when he heard this, and he said in a low voice: "The person you said before should be named Feng Fan, and he is still the son of the old man, and this time I sent Luo Ming and the others to collect some items to use to deal with Feng Lingtian in the future." I didn't expect us old guys to move yet, you juniors are right. I don't think the two juniors should blame Luo Ming too much, after all, others are more skilled, and it is a blessing to meet such a master to come back alive. If you want to blame me, blame me for not thinking it through. ”
The fire demon was also very surprised when he heard it, Feng Fan didn't take it to heart, the blow that Xuan Lie said that devoured his Xuan Huo made his heart palpitate, and he thought that he was not Xuan Lie's enemy when he fought alone, and that move made Xuan Lie have no power to resist, what kind of person is it.
However, it is a good thing for himself to do this now, Xuan Lie has lost the essence of Xuan Huo, and his strength has been greatly damaged, and he will naturally fall behind in the faction dispute.
Seeing that there was nothing to dispute, the fire demon retired first by burying the apprentices, leaving only Yan Leizi, Xuan Lie and other four people in the main hall.
