Chapter 198: Shadow
As soon as the word came out, everyone was surprised. This is the first time since the founding of the Liwu Sect that it has recruited disciples in this way. Everyone looked at the real person in disbelief.
This Leaving the Sorrow Sect has recruited disciples since the beginning of the Leaving Sorrow Sect, and they all have to pass the so-called "three passes, one forest and one trial", even if Lin Yizhi was so valued by the head of the sect back then, he still specially took the trial hall to test his qualifications. However, this time, it is indeed unbelievable that the other three assessment contents after the burial site have been completely omitted.
Tian Yi had some opinions in his heart, and muttered on the side, but he was afraid of being in a high position, so he hesitated. The corner of his eye glanced at him, his eyebrows raised, and his voice said: "Senior Brother Tianyi, if you are dissatisfied, even if you ask it, why are you talking in a whisper there, no matter how bad you are, you are also the first in the first line!"
Only then did he rely on his courage, cleared his throat and said, "Senior Brother Zhang, I thought your decision was not right!"
It was hard to hear, but he was not annoyed, and said with a smile: "It's not appropriate? Why is it inappropriate for you to say it?"
Tian Yan rolled his eyes, and simply said: "This is the first, since the founding of the Worry Sect, I have to carry out the assessment of three levels, one forest and one trial, if the new disciples do not follow the rules this time, I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the public......;
After that, he rolled his eyes again, seemed to think for a while, and said: "This second ......" He pointed to Nalan Mingxuan, who was standing in the main hall in front of him, and said: "This person, after claiming to be the head of the Nalan family, Nalan Xifeng, as far as I know, this Nalan family because of a woman, caused three brothers, including Nalan Xifeng, to turn against each other, and in the end, they broke off their righteousness, and the big family business was defeated in the hands of a woman, which is really ......."
As he spoke, the frivolous banter and incomparable contempt in his eyes emerged, and even with a faint ridicule, especially because of the woman, his eyebrows fluttered.
It's just that he didn't know that his words and expressions, in addition to the angry look of Nalan Mingxuan in the hall, behind Qing Xuan, the white-clothed Chu Xiao with iron shackles, lowered his head, and his loose hair covered his eyes, no one would see that his originally indifferent eyes were revealing terrifying coldness and killing intent, and there was even a little resentment in that cold killing intent.
Suddenly, his fists were clenched, and it could be seen that he was trying his best to restrain the urge to rush forward.
God, you must remember these words clearly! One day, you will have to repay them a hundredfold and a thousandfold!
Nalan Mingxuan just looked at the sky in front of him coldly, his eyes flickered, and he couldn't see his joy and anger.
He didn't seem to agree, and he didn't seem to have any intention of stopping it.
That day, I saw that my brother in charge did not object, and I said in my heart that my brother agreed with my point of view?
"It is precisely because of this Nalan family, infatuated with a woman, brothers fighting, and the spread of non-morality, how can we accept the descendants of this disreputable family as my disciples?
"Besides, this Nalan family has heard that the entire clan has been wiped out, how can the descendants of Nalan Sunset say it? Therefore, who is Nalan Mingxuan, I'm afraid the identity is also a big question!" Tian Yan shook his head and said endlessly.
After listening to it, he actually laughed, but he really couldn't see any approval or opposition from that expression, he leaned forward, and said vaguely with an inquiring tone: "What do you think should be done with what Zhaotian said about Senior Brother's statement?"
Tian was as if he was favored, and hurriedly said: "According to my opinion, junior brother, we should treat them differently, except for Nalan Mingxuan, those who have passed the assessment of the sea of obsession with fire should continue to carry out other assessments until all the assessments are over, so that one is to continue the rules since I left the Worry Creation Sect, and the other is to survive the fittest, and to ensure that my disciples are all elites! As for this Nalan Mingxuan......
Tian Yan glanced at him, and then said, "You should investigate carefully, lest he is a spy of the Demon Sect, or simply don't bother and just go down the mountain!"
"Hehe-ha!" Nalan Mingxuan suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, there was incomparable freedom in that laughter, and there was a mockery of the sky.
Seeing that he was laughing for no reason, he scolded sharply: "Boy, I don't know the rules, why are you laughing?"
Nalan Mingxuan's expression was cold, his eyes were burning and he stared at the sky, and said in a low voice: "I originally thought that in this huge world, only the Divorce Sect can get rid of secular prejudices, but who would have thought that it was wrong, the world is as black as a crow! I think that my Nalan family, in its heyday, how many sects of coercion and cultivation were there, and how loud is the name of the world's family out of Nalan? Now that it is broken and ruined, you still have to suffer from the foul words of a birdman like you! If it was the atmosphere back then, I am afraid that even you, the leader of the Orthodox Sect in the world, will have to respect him for three points! Since I humiliated my family first and doubted my identity, I still came here and didn't leave, isn't it boring for Te, so, Nalan said goodbye!"
After saying that, he suddenly turned around, pointed coldly at the sky with his hand and said: "Your so-called first seat of the first line, today's words, but you have to remember it, when he comes again, he will definitely listen to it in his ears, but I don't know at that time, you have the courage to say!"
With that, turn around and leave.
This sentence, with arrogance and contempt for the heavens, even criticized the entire Sect of Leaving Sorrow.
As soon as these words were finished, the top of this hall was almost about to explode, except for Lin Yizhi, Duanmu Ningque, and Chu Xiao, the three of them were indifferent, although Mo Youfeng's faces were ugly, but because of his relationship with Lin Yizhi, there was no action, and the rest of the people, whether it was the disciple or the first seat, were all angry, Hu Feng, Wang Yan, Su Zhichen and others had already drawn their swords and came out, blocking Nalan Mingxuan's way, and said angrily: "Bold fanatic, insulting me and leaving the Worry Sect, how can I let you go so for nothing?"
Seeing this, Nalan Mingxuan simply stood there, looking at them with a motionless sneer.
At this moment, the voice of the martyrdom came again: "Give me all back to my place! This is the Sect of Sorrow, not a den of bandits!"
Although the voice was not high, it was full of anger. That Wang Yan, Hu Feng and the others were not stupid, and the anger that could hear the words of the master was directed at them, and they were so frightened that they withdrew their swords one after another, and they no longer had the momentum of Fang Cai, so they lowered their heads and retreated behind their own masters.
Qi Nan suppressed the anger again, and said in a slightly softened voice: "Nalan Mingxuan, you can stay for a while, and listen to what I have to say?"
When Nalan Mingxuan heard this, he hurriedly turned around and said: "The real person in charge is serious, Nalan is a junior, how can he let the real person in charge of the real person persuade him like this!"
Qi Nan nodded and said: "Nalan Mingxuan, although Fang Caitian's words are a little excessive, some words still have no basis, and his mouth is full of nonsense, which really does not match his identity as the head of the line......" After saying that, he glared fiercely at Tianyan, who was still smug.
Seeing this look of annoyance that day, my mind cooled down, and the smug demeanor just now had long since disappeared, and I wanted to say anything more, but I suddenly heard Qi Qi reprimanded: "What nonsense do you still want to say?
When Tian Yan heard this, although he was a little unconvinced, he didn't dare to disobey the difficult words, so he had to sit back in his place.
Qi Nan turned his head and said to Nalan Mingxuan: "However, there is indeed a sentence in the heavens that the Nalan family has indeed been ruined since that turmoil. Your identity is in doubt. ”
Nalan Mingxuan bowed his hand and said: "What the master of the sect said is extremely true, but Nalan doesn't know how to prove that he is the head of the Nalan family. ”
Qi Nan nodded and said: "However, your performance in the disciple assessment, especially the assessment of Ling Tian's level, is even more unprecedented, on that day, I and all the junior brothers and sisters also know, if you are very scheming, or people with improper mental skills, I am afraid that you will not be able to ascend to the tenth-order heavenly path, therefore, I believe you!"
When Nalan Mingxuan heard this, his eyes were full of excitement, and it was only then that he fell down and bowed down convincingly: "Thank you for being in charge!
Qi Nan nodded and said, "It's just that you must live up to my expectations!"
With that, with a gentle flick towards him, Nalan Mingxuan only felt a soft but irresistible force slowly hold up his kneeling body.
Qi Nan smiled, his expression suddenly became solemn, and he said loudly to the people in the hall: "Everyone, since I left the Sorrow Sect and founded the Sect, I have been the leader of the world through ups and downs, but many years ago, when I was in charge of the Wuji True Sect, because of a major event that was related to the fate of my Sect, almost all the disciples of the same generation as me and your first seat withered...... Alas, in the past hundred years, there are only nine of us left......"
The voice became more and more vicissitudes, only to make all the heads of the seats present also sigh with emotion.
Qi Nan said: "However, fortunately with the blessing of the generations of immortal masters, I am difficult to be conscientious, my liver and brain are smeared, and I rely on the efforts of my brothers and sisters to work together, so that I have the cultivation of the true realm, and the theory of the nine sons of the Nine Sons of Separation from Worry to suppress the cultivation realm, so that I have the status of the leader of the world of the Separation Sect." ”
Zhu Shouzuo hurriedly stood up and arched his hand: "Thanks to the wisdom of the real person in charge, I can only do my best!"
Qi Nan waved his hand and said: "Senior brothers and sisters, Qi Nan is going to thank you!" After saying that, he actually bowed deeply in the position of head of the sect. I was so panicked that the first seat was busy returning the salute, and I didn't dare.
After saluting, he said with emotion: "It's just that the years have changed, the vicissitudes of wind and rain, and now I have more than 10,000 disciples from the Worry Sect, and outstanding young disciples also abound, and the younger generation is the leader of the entire cultivation world." Perhaps, you think that I can sit back and relax when I am free from worries, so over the past many years, we have more or less lost some determination in each other's hearts to share the ups and downs, but have increased a lot of mutual suspicion, even estrangement and suppression, open and secret fighting. Whether it's the battle between Senior Brother Fang Cai and Senior Brother Qingxuan, or the words of Senior Brother Tianxuan, I can still hear it more or less!"
In a word, all the leaders turned red, and their expressions were a little ashamed.
Qi Nan sighed, as if he wanted to say all the things in his heart: "These things, I think about them every time, and I am terrified when I think about them! If you still want to develop this battle and the situation, how can the Sorrow Sect be brilliant, and how can you have the face to be the leader in the world?!"
These words, word by word, are deafening, like an imprint deeply engraved in everyone's heart.
"Although Qi Nan is not talented, he doesn't want to develop like this, otherwise when I wait for the day of ascension, how will I have the face to see me leave the sorrow of the ancestors of the past dynasties?"
The expressions of the heads of the Zhu were dark, and they hurriedly arched their hands and said: "Senior brother, the lesson is to teach!"
Only then did his face return to normal, and he said loudly: "I hope that after this turmoil, all the junior brothers and sisters will respect and love each other, and jointly protect my great cause of worrying for ten thousand years!" Then his voice was calm again: "Now I have more than 10,000 disciples who are away from worry, but all the good and evil factions are desperately developing their own strength, I am the leader of the world, why do you need to raise the threshold so high? Therefore, I have always intended to reduce and reduce the content and difficulty of the assessment for recruiting disciples, and today I am taking this opportunity to simply exempt all the assessment content after this new batch of disciples!
Only then did the first seat understand that they were more impressed by the dedication of the Qi Sect in their hearts, and that Lu Wujian, who was a little defensive against the Qi Difficulty from the bottom of his heart, was also very moved this time.
Seeing that there was no objection to the first seat, he nodded with relief, and then said like a few family treasures: "Although I have closed the dead pass, my divine sense can perceive the things in the Liwu Sect, so there are many talented people among these new disciples, such as Nalan Mingxuan in front of him, as well as these disciples named Liu Tanyi, Tang Murong, and Wu Banqi, but they are all amazing and brilliant, and they are all single-minded juniors......
Busy answering the ranks.
Qi Qi: "These people, as well as other outstanding disciples I don't know very well, are all listed as core disciples, but the number of core disciples is at most fifteen, and the rest are divided according to their qualifications, and then they will be filled into each vein, and the distribution of these fifteen core disciples will be discussed by you first, how about it?"
This time, there was no objection from the first seat, and they all nodded yes.
Qi Nan nodded and said, "That's it, everyone is gone......"
When everyone heard this, they slowly walked towards the outside of the hall. Lin Yizhi looked towards Nalan Mingxuan, wanting to say something, but after all, he felt that this place was too inappropriate, so he didn't say anything after all. It's just that Nalan Mingxuan seemed to feel that Lin Yizhi was looking at him, and slowly turned around and nodded lightly at him.
Lin Yizhi also nodded, and walked out with Mo Youfeng's people. Suddenly, I felt that there were three people passing by, and the pale blue figure fell into Lin Yizhi's eyes so inadvertently.
With a move in his heart, he suddenly looked up at the pale blue figure, but saw that she was still walking by his side so coldly, without pausing or even slightly, as if she had never seen him, her steps were calm, and she did not look back.
Duanmu ...... Lin Yi's heart was stunned. She still wouldn't take the initiative to look at me......
At this moment, he suddenly felt that his arm was gently grabbed, Lin Yizhi looked back and saw that it was Lu Xiyue, Lu Xiyue's smile was like a flower, and her pink clothes moved lightly, which was even more light and smart.
Lu Xiyue didn't seem to notice Lin Yizhi's lost soul, she looked elated, and said in a low voice with a smile: "Brother Yizhi, it's really yours, it's still dangerous, haha! You are injured, Xiyue is helping you back like this!"
Lin Yizhi retracted his mind and nodded lightly.
After saying that, Lu Xiyue took the first step, Lu Xiyue helped Lin Yizhi, and just after taking a few steps, she seemed to suddenly remember something, and seemed to look up casually to the side of the position of the head of the sect.
That was Qing Xuan's position, but now not only was there no one in any position, but there was no one standing behind him......
Is he gone?
............
With the departure of everyone, the Great Hall of Sorrow suddenly changed from noise to silence, and this silence without any sound seemed to be somewhat illusory and unreal compared to the noise of Fang Cai.
Everyone had left, but there was still one person in this deep hall, who had been leaning back on his seat like that and had never left.
This figure is vicissitudes, compassion, and even a little lonely. His head was full of snow, and he swayed without wind with the wide dark colored robe. And he sat like that, not moving, in that position, as if for eternity.
His eyes were slightly closed, and he seemed to be asleep......
No one came, and no one wanted to disturb the dreams of such an old man.
The sun went from warm to intense, and from scorching intensity, to the west.
The remnant sun is like blood, and the afterglow is vast. The corner of the sky at the gate of the Great Hall of Sorrow became more and more dim, like blood-weeping eyes......
Finally, the last glimmer of light was completely swallowed up by the night. Darkness came unexpectedly.
Tonight, there are no stars and no moon.
Qi Yan seemed to move slightly, and the bronze candlestick on a temple pillar about five zhang away from him rang softly, and the candle on the bronze candlestick slowly emitted a faint dim candlelight.
The candle flame was dim and flickering, and it seemed that it was in danger of being extinguished at any moment.
However, the faint light of the candle could still illuminate the surroundings. Driving away the darkness that does not belong to the tumbling of the Great Hall of Sorrow.
However, the candlelight still seemed to be too weak, and it only illuminated half of his face and half of his body.
The other half of his face and half of his body seemed to be shrouded in the darkness of the Great Hall of Sorrow, and the darkness rolled as if they were one.
The half of the face under the dim candlelight seemed to have no expression, and seemed to have a little vicissitudes and sleepiness.
He was still half-hidden and half-present between the darkness and the candlelight, as if waiting for someone.
Finally, where the candlelight met the darkness, behind the huge pillar, there seemed to be a floating black shadow, slowly fluttering out.
Maybe it's just a dark shadow, because the candle flame is so dim that there is always a place where it can't shine.
Qi Nan's somewhat old voice said slowly: "You're here?"
The black shadow seemed to nod in a trance. He said slowly: "I thank you......"
Qi Nan seemed to smile and said: "Thank you for what I did, there is nothing wrong with him breaking into the sea of obsession with fire, even if he is wrong, he still has to keep him from dying, isn't it?"
The black shadow didn't make a sound, but he said, "Senior Brother Qingxuan ...... today."
The black shadow seemed to sigh and said, "Obsessed, his heart knot seems to be more difficult to solve than you and me!"
Qi Nan nodded and said: "Difficult to solve must be solved, no matter what, he is always the master of the Sword Hall of the Leaving Worry Sect......"
"Hopefully it's not too late......"
The dark shadow seemed to be talking to itself, and suddenly a voice came out: "What do you think of Nalan Mingxuan?"
He smiled meaningfully: "Maybe the identity is true, I just said that to give everyone a reason, but I have secretly investigated his cultivation, but it is the cultivation of condensation......"
The black shadow seemed to smile and said, "It's better to be on guard! People who are too high-spirited are always bad......"
Hearing this, he laughed and said, "Isn't it good to be too ambitious? Is he comparable to your spirit back then......
The black shadow seemed to shake his head and said, "How was it back then, what did I do to mention it, I was already a dry bone in the grave back then, why compare it......
Hearing the words, his eyes flashed, as if he was recalling something, and then sighed suddenly, his expression actually dimmed and said: "You said, I made them restrain their veins like this, and now they are intrigued, and the Sorrow Sect is solid on the surface, but in fact, it is almost a plate of scattered sand. You say, 'Am I really wrong to do this?'
With that, he slowly lowered his head, waiting for the voice in the dark shadow to answer.
But for a long time, I didn't hear a word of speaking, and suddenly I looked up, but found that there was still some dark shadow somewhere, and in that place, only the dim candlelight, swaying gently, like crying.
In the darkness, a sound as if something had been pushed suddenly, suddenly pierced the silence of the Great Hall of Sorrow.
And this sound brought a gust of wind, and instantly extinguished the struggling and flickering candle.
Leaving the hall of worry, there is no light.
Maybe the martyrdom hasn't gone yet, but in the surging darkness, I can't make out where the figure of the martyrdom is......
