Chapter 81: Forming an Alliance (Asking for Recommendations, Collections)
Hearing Wu Jiang's inquiry, the two of them told the truth of the matter one by one, from Jiang Yuntian first getting the news of Ling Yifan from Qiu Feng of the Water Moon Sect, to chasing and killing Ling Yifan later, until they discovered that something had happened to the jade talisman not long ago.
After listening to the statements of the two, Wu Jiang once again glanced at the jade talisman in his hand, with horror and disbelief in his eyes. From the situation of the jade talisman in his hand, it can be determined that this Elder Jiang has indeed fallen, but judging from the statements of the two, Elder Jiang's fall seems to be related to the mortal monk who was hunted down.
If Jiang Yuntian was really killed by a mortal monk, this would be a bit too unbelievable. Wu Jiang couldn't accept it from the bottom of his heart.
"In what direction did Elder Jiang chase after his opponent at that time, and how long did it take for you to find out that something had happened to the jade talisman?" Wu Jiang asked.
The two hurriedly pointed out the direction to Wu Jiang and replied, "Elder Jiang chased him out only two hours before there was an accident. At that time, although Elder Jiang shouted the name of the person who was chasing and killing, we didn't see any of us. ”
After Wu Jiang inquired, he instructed the two not to pass on the matter, and the two were ordered to retreat.
Wu Jiang calculated the time, several days had passed since Elder Jiang's death, and it was unknown whether Elder Jiang's body could be found to find out the truth of his death. I'm afraid that only by finding that Ling Yifan maybe the matter will come to light, this Elder Jiang was killed, how can it be inseparable from that Ling Yifan. It's just that I don't know how he killed Elder Jiang, in Wu Jiang's heart, he didn't believe that Jiang Yuntian was killed by Ling Yifan, if Jiang Yuntian's death was indirectly related to Ling Yifan, Wu Jiang would believe it. In addition, the two said that when Jiang Yuntian was chasing and killing Ling Yifan, they didn't see a human figure, so Ling Yifan had some special method of hiding his aura and body.
These are just speculations, Wu Jiang said in his heart: "Let's discuss it when Wei Wuying arrives, as soon as this secret realm trip comes in, it will lose a Yuan Ying Elder, this action is a little unfavorable! I didn't expect this Jiang Yuntian to go after and kill Ling Yifan." ”
Before he and Wei Wuying came in, they had also secretly received orders from the young master. But why did they kill this Ling Yifan, they didn't know very well in their hearts, but when the young master ordered it, they didn't want to ask too much, they just did their part. But the benefits promised by the young master are very rich, and even they are very attractive to the Yuanying monks.
When he first came in, he had discussed it with Wei Wuying, but at that time, because Ling Yifan was in the team of the Water Moon Sect, it was inconvenient to do it, so he was ready to wait for Ling Yifan to disperse with the team before finding an opportunity to do it. I never thought that Jiang Yuntian would be the first to ascend, and it was unknown that he died because of this incident. ”
Now that the Xuanming Sect's team had lost an elder, he couldn't leave the team alone without waiting for Wei Wuying's arrival.
The bright moon and stars in the night sky were silently hidden in the sky, time passed silently, and before I knew it, the night was about to pass, and at the dawn, the elders and disciples of the three sects were also constantly converging here. At this time, the elders of the three sects had all arrived, except for Yu Chengfeng of the Water Moon Sect and Wei Wuying of the Xuanming Sect.
Liu Ruyan and Yu Qianlan of the Water Moon Sect stood together, and Yu Qianlan said softly: "Sister Ruyan, you said that after Elder Yu arrives in a while, will we set off by ourselves or join the other two sects to move forward together?" If we act on our own, we don't have to worry about someone secretly doing it, but in the face of more spirit beasts and dangers ahead, our grasp of entering the core area is not very great! If the three sects are united, the grasp will be much greater, but I am afraid that when the time comes, each will have a ghost, but it will be bad." ”
Liu Ruyan nodded when he heard this: "When Elder Yu arrives, we will discuss it, then there are still two elders of the Xuanying Sect who have not arrived, I think, not only do we have this idea for the matter of unity, but the other two sects should be the same." The power of those spirit beasts along the way, they must have also learned it. As for the details of the alliance, the elders will be there after dawn, and I think there will be an agreement after everyone discusses it. ”
The Yin Lao Wu and Yin Lao Jiu of the Tianyin Sect also secretly pondered in their hearts, only he had the smallest number of Tianyin Sect and the weakest strength of these three sects, if the three sects acted alone, the most disadvantageous one would be the Tianyin Sect, so among the three sects, the one who hoped to unite the most was the Tianyin Sect.
Finally, when the dawn broke in the east, Wei Wuying and Yu Chengfeng rushed here one after another. Wei Wuying's arrival finally made Wu Jiang breathe a sigh of relief, and after Wei Wuying's arrival, Wu Jiang hurriedly retold the news about Jiang Yuntian to him. Wei Wuying heard that Jiang Yuntian's death was related to that Ling Yifan who had reached the mortal stage, and according to Wu Jiang's statement, it was very likely that this Elder Jiang's death was killed by that mortal monk. Thinking of this, Wei Wuying's heart suddenly set off a shock.
After Wei Wuying calmed down his shocked mood a little, Wu Jiang said, "Elder Wei, you don't have to be too shocked. At first, I was as surprised as you when I heard the news, but after thinking about it a little later, I am afraid that this matter is not as simple as we thought, although we still don't know the real reason for Elder Jiang's accident. However, Elder Jiang was a seventh-order cultivator, and although the cause of his death was inseparable from that Ling Yifan, it was by no means something that a mortal monk could kill, and there must be something else hidden in it. ”
After Wu Jiang said this, Wei Wuying finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and nodded: "What you said is reasonable, just now I was reckless, and I would think that Elder Jiang would be killed by a mortal monk, it is really ridiculous." ”
Wu Jiang glanced at the seventy or eighty disciples in the team behind him, and said to Wei Wuying: "Before you came, I planned to investigate according to the clues I just got, but if I leave alone, I don't worry about my disciples. The other two sects have elders in charge, and if I leave rashly, it will arouse the suspicion of the Tianyin Sect and the Water Moon Sect. The news of the murder of Elder Jiang of my Xuanming Sect must not be spread out, in that case it will be very detrimental to our trip to the secret realm, and we have to find a way to find that Ling Yifan. ”
Wei Wuying pondered for a moment and said to Wu Jiang: "Right now, except for my Elder Jiang of the Xuanming Sect, all the elders who have entered the secret realm this time have arrived, what should we do next? ”
After listening to Wei Wuying's words, Wu Jiang said, "Before you arrived, I secretly observed the Tianyin Sect and the Water Moon Sect, and it seems that everyone has the intention of uniting, otherwise they wouldn't be here." The fall of Elder Jiang is kept secret for the time being, and he can't tell the sect master after he goes out, and listen to the sect master's fate. Now that we have lost an elder, the matter of joining forces is also beneficial and harmless to us, and if we act alone, we will not be able to enter the central area, what do you think?"
Hearing this, Wei Wuying nodded after a moment of silence and said, "You are right, since everything is here, why don't we speak first and find out everyone's attitude first, if we all have this idea, this matter will naturally become an alliance for everyone." However, if everyone asks about Elder Jiang, they have to think of an excuse first. ”
Wu Jiang nodded, motioning for Wei Wuying to come with him to the position between the Tianyin Sect and the Water Moon Sect, and seeing that the two elders of the Xuanyin Sect had made a move, everyone moved their eyes to the two. Coming between the two sects, Wu Jiang said in a deep voice: "It's rare for all the elders to gather in one place, isn't there anything to say?"
All the elders of the Tianyin Sect and the Water Moon Sect suddenly shook their figures and came to Wu Jiang's face, among which Yu Chengfeng said: "Elder Wu, there is still an elder from your Xuanyin Sect who has not arrived, don't you have to wait any longer?"
Wu Jiang paused and explained: "No need, it's okay for me and Elder Wei to be here, our Elder Jiang has other tasks, so it is different from us, and only me and Elder Wei have entered the core area this time." ”
Several elders of the Water Moon Sect and the Tianyin Sect looked at Wu Jiang suspiciously, and did not delve into it, after all, this is a private matter of the Xuanyin Sect, and it is not appropriate to ask too deeply.
Wu Jiang and Wei Wuying saw that this matter was revealed, and hurriedly said: "Now that they have entered the secret realm, everyone here must have seen the spirit beasts, and the most important Yuan Jing here is also related to spirit beasts, presumably everyone should have discovered this secret." This is only the middle circle, not to mention anything else, even if we can still avoid this spirit beast, but as we continue to go deeper, I am afraid that we will not be able to avoid a head-to-head confrontation. It's just one head and two heads, if it's a few heads or a dozen heads, the scene is terrifying. If we go it alone, I'm afraid that there is not much hope of entering the central area, and I don't know what you think. ”
After Wu Jiang finished speaking, he was silent and quietly watched everyone's reactions. At this time, Yin Lao Wu and Yin Lao Jiu of the Tianyin Sect took the lead in holding their breath and said: "It's better for us to act together, so that the grasp of entering the central area is much greater, and at the same time, the danger is much smaller than acting alone, and everyone can take care of each other in times of crisis, in short, I think it is much better for everyone to act together than to act on their own." I don't know what you think?" he said and moved his gaze to a few people from the Water Moon Sect, as if waiting for their attitude.
Yu Qianlan glanced at the Tianyin Sect and said, "This joint action is good, and there is naturally no need to say much about this benefit, but I am afraid that when the time comes, everyone will have their own ghosts, and when they really encounter danger, they may not take care of each other and go all out." ”
Wu Jiang frowned slightly, there is something in Yu Qianlan's words, and what she said is not unreasonable, if it is really like what she said at that time, then this union will be meaningless, and it will be self-defeating if it is not done well.
At this time, Wu Jiang said: "Since everyone has said everything, then simply set up a rule, what Elder Yu said is not unreasonable, presumably everyone may have such concerns about the union." If we can't work together, then this union is meaningless, so we might as well swear by our own Dao hearts and never have different intentions in the process of joint action. In this way, we can eliminate each other's wariness and concerns, and when we reach the central area, everyone will rely on their abilities to obtain the inheritance, I don't know if you have any objections?"
At this time, Yin Lao Wu and Yin Lao Jiu of the Tianyin Sect spoke at the same time: "It's very good that Elder Wu mentions it like this, and we have no objection. ”
At this time, Yu Qianlan, Liu Ruyan and Yu Chengfeng of the Water Moon Sect glanced at each other, nodded to Wu Jiang, and agreed.
Seeing this, Wu Jiang nodded and said, "Okay, since everyone has no objections, then the matter of this alliance is settled, and then let's discuss the specific matters of the action." ”
