Chen Ao was already a little weak in his legs and weak in his steps. was hit by Smale, and almost collapsed to the ground. Smale stepped forward to support him at the right time, and said with a smile: "Deputy Sect Leader Chen is careful!"

He was very polite in his mouth, but he was muttering in his heart, why is this young man so empty, more empty than the old man?

Of course, Smale couldn't have imagined that this divine envoy who showed his might in front of 10,000 people last night would later show his might on Lan Yuyan's bed.

Chen Ao smiled dryly: "It turned out to be the Great Elder." Hello hello hello...... Why did you come so early? Could it be that there is something important?"

Smale smiled: "No, no. Everyone made a fuss late last night, and they are probably still sleeping with their heads covered! haha...... I'm here to see you!"

Chen Ao's heart skipped a beat, and he said with some emptiness: "See me, see me...... What are you doing?"

Smale said, "Hehe, it's nothing. Vice Sect Leader Chen, do you remember what I told you ten days ago?"

Chen Ao thought about it, and then remembered that Smale had hinted ten days ago that he could help Lan Yuyan survive the catastrophe on the day of the fire sacrifice. It's just that Chen Ao didn't want to rely on Smale's help, so he left this matter behind.

Smale smiled: "Actually, I have always believed in the innocence of the Holy Maiden, but I am worried that someone will make trouble from it, so I want to help you and the Holy Maiden......"

Chen Ao smiled secretly in his heart, you old thing, you obviously want to get benefits from Lao Tzu, and now you are pretending to be more righteous.

"It's just that I didn't expect that Deputy Sect Leader Chen is a messenger of the gods, and he is blessed by the gods. My little help is naturally insignificant. Hahaha......"

Smale kept getting close to Chen Ao, and Chen Ao was also vain. The two walked all the way, and Smale invited Chen Ao to his cottage in the Elders' House. The two sat across from each other, and Smale poured a glass of red wine for Chen Ao.

Chen Ao held the wine glass and said with a smile: "Great Elder, if you have anything to say, just say it." None of us are outsiders. ”

Smale smiled and said, "Actually, I just admire Brother Chen's methods! Tell me, what happened last night?"

Chen Ao glanced at him, smiled secretly in his heart, but his face was serious, and said, "Great Elder, what are you talking about." Everything last night was, of course, the power of the God of Light!"

Smale waved his hand and said with a smile: "You kid, you have a really tight mouth." Let's stop talking secretly, who doesn't know that there is a way to deceive those stupid believers......!

Chen Ao snorted and said, "The Great Elder really dares to say it, you really don't believe in the gods?"

Smale sighed and said, "Chen Ao, don't be sloppy with me. I've dealt with you Han Chinese, and you people don't believe in any gods at all. Hey, right?"

Chen Ao was silent for a moment, and for a moment he couldn't figure out what this Smale's idea was. Smale also secretly scolded Chen Ao for being cunning in his heart. He originally thought that he had cultivated to this point, and he could be regarded as an old treacherous and cunning. Where did you think that Chen Ao was so young and slippery. It seems that if he doesn't give him some bottom, he will never tell the truth.

Smale gritted his teeth and whispered, "Brother Chen, I won't hide it from you." Which of us high-ranking members of the Holy Sect doesn't know the secrets of the Holy Sect? These are all tricks to deceive people! How can anyone really see any God of Light? This is just a deception to those foolish people! Hehe, just take those tricks played by the elders, but gunpowder and a little white phosphorus can create such miracles. I don't know, I really think there is some kind of spell!"

Chen Ao was secretly surprised, he couldn't imagine that this Smale had really confessed to him, what did this person want from him? Chen Ao didn't dare to answer for a while.

Smale sighed and said, "Chen Ao, I'm telling you this, of course, I don't treat you as an outsider." However, I treat you as my own, but some people may not treat you as their own!"

Chen Ao frowned, as if he understood something. He smiled and said, "Oh, who are these people?"

Smale laughed and said, "Brother Chen, you made such a fuss last night, who is it aimed at? Isn't it the current sect leader Jalali? You think I'm old and confused, I can't see this?"

Chen Ao smiled faintly and said, "Great Elder, what you said is not right. Sect Master Jia has given me such a high status, how could I target him?"

Smale laughed and sighed, "Chen Ao, it's good for young people to be careful. But if you are too careful, you will lose a lot of opportunities!"

Chen Ao's heart moved, and he secretly thought, does this old profiteer also want to take advantage of the opportunity to deal with Jalali? Holkoz once said that his relationship with Jalali was not good......

Smale said again: "Chen Ao, I won't hide it from you. When Jalali came to power, I did lead the House of Elders to endorse it. It's just that it's because I'm good at judging the situation and thinking about the big picture. The old sect leader trusted this brother very much, so he sent him to the largest altar to serve as an elder for ten years. Jalali had taken complete control there, with tens of thousands of followers. In such a situation, can I not let him be the sect leader?"

Chen Ao listened quietly and did not interject. If Smale had said these things to him before last night, Chen Ao would have formed an alliance with Smale a long time ago. But the absurdity of last night's night forced him to be more cautious.

Smale added: "Jalali is a very domineering man, and he has an insatiable desire for power. He became the leader of the sect and did not want to be checked and balanced by the House of Elders. In the past few years, he has not only gradually reduced the prestige of the House of Elders, but also wants to weaken the power of the House of Elders! This is not only contrary to the doctrine, but also extremely detrimental to the development of the Holy Church!"

Chen Ao smiled lightly and whispered, "You are even more disadvantageous to the Great Elder!"

Smale laughed, pointed at Chen Ao's nose, and said, "You're really a ghost! That's right, I won't lie to you." This Jalali has no respect for the old man, and even openly refutes my authority. After all, I am the Chief Elder, and I have great checks and balances on the position of Sect Master. In this way, I, the chief elder, will be in vain! In the long run, the power of the House of Elders will inevitably be eaten away by him little by little!"

Chen Ao sighed and said, "Yes, people are in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help themselves. In this environment, if you lose your power, you lose everything, and you can't even protect your own life!"

As if he had met a confidant, Smale held Chen Ao's hand and said, "Brother Chen, you are an understanding person. You're a sensible person!"

Chen Ao smiled and said word by word: "Since the Great Elder and I have the same thoughts, then we are good friends!"

He said, holding out his palm. Smale laughed, held Chen Ao's hand, and said continuously: "That's right, yes, good friend, good friend......"
