Chapter 31: The Old Man in the Black Robe

Tianlin City, leaning on the green building. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In a quiet secret room, Bai Qiong sat cross-legged on the futon, silently pranayama.

Suddenly, her face flushed, and then a mouthful of blood spurted out, and her breath weakened in an instant.

"Damn, after all, it's still a loss of cultivation!"

Bai Qiong slammed his fist on the ground, and suddenly the bluestone-paved floor cracked like a spider's web, and the cracks spread everywhere with the power.

Her originally delicate and beautiful face looked extremely hideous at the moment, like a poisonous snake that wanted to choose people to devour.

Using that jade talisman to escape was extremely expensive, because there was no aura in the body, it could only consume essence blood to maintain the energy of flight, which greatly damaged Bai Qiong's vitality, and his cultivation fell directly from the sixth-rank Qingyun realm of the martial artist to the fifth-grade trapped dragon realm.

It's okay to do this, after all, the fall of cultivation is only temporary, anyway, the realm is there, it is nothing more than taking some more heavenly and earthly treasures to make up for it. What made her feel distressed was that the three spirit runes given to her by her father were used up by her this time.

This is a life-saving thing, extremely precious, and ordinary Bai Qiong regards it as a treasure.

If it weren't for the arrest of the second prince in Beijing this time, there would be such twists and turns, and Bai Qiong would not have said anything.

What worries her even more is that this time she returned in vain, and she also lost two innate elders and a large number of martial artists, even if she is the leader of the silver wolf, I am afraid that she will not be able to explain to the elder Taishang, although the leader of the silver wolf organization is the nominal supreme person, in fact, the real person in charge is the elder Taishang, and Bai Qiong also has to obey orders.

And the eldest prince couldn't reply.

Bai Qiong's stomach was depressed.

At this time, the door of the secret room was pushed open, and Li Chunfeng came in with a steaming medicine bowl, he glanced at Bai Qiong, and then felt that her breath was weakened, and her cultivation actually dropped greatly, and he couldn't help but be surprised: "Miss, how did your cultivation become weaker!"

Bai Qiong shook her head and said with a wry smile: "I fell." ”

Li Chunfeng sighed and said, "This time, the young lady not only suffered a big loss in cultivation, but also lost two innate elders in the organization, which is a heavy loss!"

Bai Qiong was silent when she heard this, she took the medicine bowl and drank the steaming ginseng soup in one gulp, her face flushed with a hint of ruddy, and she looked much more energetic.

instructed Li Chunfeng: "Don't disclose the news of my healing here for the time being, no matter who asks you, they won't know." ”

Li Chunfeng nodded and said, "I know." It's just that many people in the organization have a lot of complaints this time, and I'm afraid that Elder Taishang will ask directly, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain when the time comes!"

Bai Qiong was worried about this matter, and she didn't hide it: "The reason why I didn't let you reveal the news was because I wanted to think of a perfect plan here to see how to reply to Elder Taishang. ”

Li Chunfeng was her confidant, so Bai Qiong did not hide it. The relationship between the two of them is extraordinary, Li Chunfeng's mother was a maid in the sect, and she once served Bai Qiong's mother, with this relationship, Li Chunfeng is loyal to Bai Qiong.

Although it is said that the cultivation is not high, but being able to take charge of the stronghold of the Silver Wolf is really deeply trusted by Bai Qiong.

Li Chunfeng sighed, picked up the empty bowl, and was about to retreat.

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside the stone room, Li Chunfeng's face was slightly angry, he had commanded, without his order, no one in Yicui Building was allowed to come here.

He wanted to see who was so bold, but he saw an old man in a black robe with a white beard appear at the door, followed by his henchman, the taro shopkeeper.

"Altar master, I'm sorry, Elder Taishang is here in person, and the little one has to obey orders!"

The taro shopkeeper said cautiously, but there was an inexplicable smile on his face.

Li Chunfeng immediately understood, it was the taro shopkeeper who sent a message to tell the Supreme Elder Bai Qiong that he was here, and no third person knew about this news except for the two of them.

It seems that the rumors are true, and there is a separate agency within the Silver Wolf that is responsible for cleaning up the spies, called the Blood Wolf.

The blood wolf directly obeys the orders of the Supreme Elder, which is quite mysterious.

He has no eyes and leads the taro shopkeeper as a confidant, but the other party is a spy of the blood wolf, and he suddenly regrets it in his heart.

However, when Elder Taishang came in person, he could only hold back the anger in his heart, and respectfully bowed: "The person in charge of the Tianhuo Prefecture Branch, Li Chunfeng sees Elder Taishang!"

The black-robed old man didn't even look at him, and directly faced Bai Qiong and said, "Lord Chief, how can you recuperate here!"

Bai Qiong's heart suddenly panicked, she didn't expect Elder Taishang to come here suddenly, and said in a little panic: "Elder Taishang, why are you here!"

"Why can't the old man come here, this is also my silver wolf's stronghold, do I need to ask the leader for instructions when I come here!"

The black-robed old man's face was grim, and his tone was extremely unkind.

Bai Qiong also knew at this moment that someone must have told the secret, but now is not the time to think about this, Elder Taishang must have come here for the death of Gu Ri and Ilad.

got up and saluted the black-robed old man, and then said, "This is not the place to speak, please come with me, let me explain slowly." ”

The black-robed old man wanted to have a seizure, but he sensed that Bai Qiong's aura was weakening, and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong with you, your breath is so disordered?"

Bai Qiong smiled bitterly: "I used the Black Cloud Talisman, which caused the loss of essence and blood, and my cultivation fell directly to a realm. ”

The black-robed old man was taken aback for a moment, and said, "What! The talisman given to you by the sect master was actually used by you, it seems that the enemy you encountered this time is quite tricky, otherwise you will definitely not use such a precious thing!"

Bai Qiong nodded, with a helpless look on her face, and said, "This matter is a long story. ”

Li Chunfeng went to lead the way, and the group walked out of the secret room, and Bai Qiong and the old man in black robe came to a side room.

Ordered Li Chunfeng not to allow anyone to approach this room, Bai Qiong then explained the matter in detail, from leaving the capital to the destruction of Lei Hengzhuang and the battle by the Xiliu River, all of which were told to the old man in black robes.

The black-robed old man's expression was grim, and he said after a moment: "It seems that you have met a monk this time, and that person's cultivation is quite strong as you said, and I am afraid that it will be difficult for me to defeat him." Since this person is not from the Snow Moon Empire's Worship Hall, as you think, it must be a mysterious force, and this information is very important. ”

The black-robed elder nodded and said approvingly: "If it is in the sect, it will also be a great achievement!"

"But ....."

The black-robed old man's words changed, his face suddenly became stern, and he said coldly: "As the leader of the silver wolf, you actually participated in the battle for the succession of the Snow Moon Empire for your own selfishness, and you didn't take the discipline of the silver wolf in your eyes, and this time you also lost two innate elders and a large number of martial artists, Bai Qiong, you are guilty!"

Bai Qiong's expression became gloomy, and she wanted to say something, but she concluded: "Elder Taishang, I ......."

The black-robed old man sighed and said, "Bai Qiong, if this matter is passed back to the sect, how should the sect leader look at you? how should your brothers and sisters secretly laugh at you, even if you are the daughter of the sect leader, I am afraid that it will be difficult to escape punishment, why are you suffering!"

Bai Qiong seemed to be stimulated, her face turned red, and she said in an excited tone: "Elder Taishang, I hate it, God is not fair! Why do my brothers and sisters all have spiritual roots, they can practice, and they are born in high positions, what do they want! I am also the daughter of the sect leader, why don't I have a spiritual root, why can't I practice, why can't I serve as a deacon in the sect, come here to be the leader of the silver wolf, it sounds good, in fact, it is a distribution, I am not reconciled!"

Bai Qiong's eyes were bloodshot, and her face was a little out of shape because of excitement.

The black-robed elder asked: "This is the reason why you participated in the seizure of the heir, and even did not hesitate to fall into the Qinglou and commit yourself to the great prince, what are you paying such a big price for, is it..."

"That's right, Elder Taishang, you guessed it, I, Bai Qiong, paid such a big price just to enter the Spirit Washing Pool, it is rumored to be the Spirit Pool left by the founding monarch of the Black Wind Empire, Emperor Feng Qing, whoever enters the Spirit Washing Pool will shed his mortal body and have infinite wonders!"

Bai Qiong's face showed an extremely yearning look.

The black-carded old man sighed and said: "After all, it's just a rumor, the difference between a monk and a mortal is whether there is a spiritual root, this is a heavenly moat, a mere spiritual pool can have this function, then the Black Wind Empire can be overthrown by the Lin brothers, you are simply delusional!"

"How can I know if I don't try, Elder Taishang, I'm unwilling, I'm forty years old this year, if I can't seize this opportunity, my life will be ruined, I'm really unwilling!"

The black-robed elder showed a hint of sympathy, he knew that he couldn't change Bai Qiong's determination, the difference between a monk and a mortal was like a chasm, not that it could be changed.

Skipping this matter, he explained the purpose of his visit this time, and said: "It's just plain, you help the eldest prince to use the resources of the organization, and I don't hurt my muscles and bones, but I also turn a blind eye, this time I actually lost two innate elders, I have to ask about this matter." Your leader is temporarily suspended, pending your father's handling. ”

Bai Qiong begged: "No, you can't do this, if I really return to the sect, I will definitely be imprisoned, Elder Taishang, you can help me!"

The black-robed old man was unmoved, and said: "Bai Qiong, you have gone too far this time, there are quite a few complaints in the organization, even if I don't say it, someone will pass this matter back to the sect, and you will not escape punishment." If you let it go, I'll say something nice for you, presumably the sect leader won't embarrass you too much for the sake of the father-daughter relationship. ”

Bai Qiong suddenly became hysterical, she yelled at the black-robed old man: "You are a monk, I am a mortal, you can't feel my pain at all, the spiritual bathing pool will be opened every ten years, and the eldest prince is about to ascend the throne, this is my only chance, and it is also what the eldest prince promised, you are equivalent to ruining me by doing this!"

Immediately, he pleaded and said, "Elder Taishang, for my mother's sake, please help me!"

As if touched by Bai Qiong's words, the black-robed old man remembered some past events, pondered for a while, and sighed: "That's it, your mother was kind to me in the past, and I helped you cover up this matter, which can be regarded as repaying your mother's kindness back then." ”

He said to Bai Qiong: "Second prince, I will help you capture it back, only this once, but you must not use the people in the organization from now on, otherwise you will never be spared!"

Bai Qiong dared to say something, and quickly nodded in thanks.

The two talked a little more, and after about a cup of tea, the black-robed old man left Yicui Building.
