Chapter 445: Prospects
In the early morning of the erection day, the sky was just slightly bright, but the disciples had already spontaneously gathered to do the morning class. Although they didn't understand the current situation, judging from the unusual move of the Protector Sect Elder to go out of the mountain, it was already a critical moment at this time, maybe the survival of the Yunshui Sword Sect was only in the morning and night, so even if Ling Feiyi didn't ask for it, the disciples were more serious than usual when they started their morning classes.
Concubine Ling, who hadn't closed her eyes all night, stood in the pavilion on the side, looking at the most potential disciples of the Yunshui Sword Sect today, and her heart was full of mixed feelings for a while. He clenched his fists tightly, gritted his silver teeth, frowned his eyebrows, his eyes were red, and he held back the tears falling.
"Alas...... Concubine Yi, your disciples are all good......" Elder Ming Shi Shiran walked over, sat on the stone bench, and sighed.
Ling Feiyi bowed her head slightly wordlessly, and a trace of pride flashed in her eyes.
After a while, Ling Feiyi recalled the conversation between the two last night, and looked at the old man who was still calm and breezy with some hesitation. Elder Ming squinted at the woman in front of him, smiled, poured himself a cup of tea, and said softly, "Concubine Yi wants to ask the 'he' mentioned by the old man, right?"
As he spoke, the old man raised his teacup, took a sip, raised his eyes to look at the mist in the mountain stream, and said with a smile: "Actually, that person has already been here......"
"Huh?" Ling Feiyi was stunned, didn't react for a while, and hesitated, "Elder, may I ask what you mean by this......"
"Concubine Yi, it's just above you, please take it, you will naturally understand!" Elder Ming tilted his head, glanced at the top of the pavilion slightly, and ordered.
"Directly above?" Concubine Ling was puzzled, and when she looked up, she saw a feather arrow horizontally on the top, and the arrow was obviously tied to a letter.
When Ling Feiyi saw this, her heart sank, and she wondered, "This ...... Elder, someone had sneaked into this mountain stream at night, but I hadn't closed my eyes all night, and I couldn't hear even a minute of movement!"
"Huh...... That person came from Zishi...... Elder Ming shook his head and said with some regret, "Concubine Yi, you are just barely practicing the tenth layer of Yunshui Sword Technique, you can be regarded as just getting started, and it is normal not to hear the movements of some masters, when you are in Luoyang, you must have a deep understanding!"
Hearing the old man say this, Ling Feiyi's mind appeared again that Tianji who was always laughing, and since then, the news of this man fighting the old lady of the Ouyang family that day has spread on the rivers and lakes, so she is even more discouraged.
"Concubine Yi, don't think about it, you better take off that arrow first......" Elder Ming inadvertently showed a rare melancholy, without him, he was just afraid of the head of the ghost valley.
"Whoosh!"
Concubine Ling frowned, her body was like a swimming dragon, she jumped up, grabbed the feather arrow in her slender hand and fell, she took down the letter, raised her eyes and looked at Elder Ming, asking for advice, but Elder Ming was hanging his head and tasting fragrant tea. Ling Feiyi had no choice but to open the letter by herself, and when she looked down, she locked her willow eyebrows, and after a while, she raised her head and said in a deep voice: "It's too much to deceive!
"Zheng Xing?" Elder Ming closed his eyes when he heard this question, his face was a little disappointed, and he muttered, "It seems that he is going to fight with us after all......
After a while, Elder Ming adjusted his mentality, raised his head and said, "Concubine Yi, you should know that the surname of the previous dynasty is this 'Zheng', in other words, this Zheng Xing is that Ye Jiuzhong!"
"Ye Jiuzhong......" Concubine Ling was stunned, then looked down at the vigorous and powerful font, and wondered, "If you want to say Ye Jiuzhong, this person is not in the Gu Prime Minister's Mansion, why does he want to contact us in this name?"
Elder Ming opened his eyes, looked at Concubine Ling, there was some pity in his eyes, shook his head, and sighed: "Concubine Yi, you...... You do your best to do everything you can, try to be foolproof, this is your strength, but also your shortcoming. Do you know where you are inferior to Ling Ru?"
When Ling Feiyi heard this name, she frowned, lowered her head and said in a deep voice, "Please also ask the elders for advice?"
"Alas...... Perhaps, this is directly related to her experience of walking the rivers and lakes in her early years, after all, you have walked on the rivers and lakes a little, and since you became the leader, the Yunshui Sword Sect has never encountered such a critical situation......" Elder Ming's tone was quite a bit of hatred for iron and steel, "The old man knows that you think about the sect, and you are also hard work, but in the face of interests, no matter how much you have a deep hatred, you can also be friends!" To tell the truth, the old man originally wanted to wait for Na Ru or Ye Feng to come over, but he didn't want to wait for the prince of the previous dynasty, and it seems that this prince is not a peaceful person!"
"The disciple understands, but there is ...... in this letter" In front of Elder Ming, Ling Feiyi could only lower her figure and said with some hesitation.
"Huh...... In this letter, it's nothing more than to let the old man come to visit!" Elder Ming chuckled and sighed slightly, "This prince of the former dynasty is indeed amazing, but it doesn't matter, the old man is naturally going to meet him!"
"Elder, this letter says that you should come to visit in person......! This...... You ......" Concubine Ling was a little at a loss, she didn't understand what Elder Ming meant, if she agreed like this, then the prestige of the Yunshui Sword Sect would definitely be greatly reduced.
"You...... The meaning of the prince of the previous dynasty was to let the people of the rivers and lakes know that our two families were allied, and he was the leader, and our Yunshui Sword Sect listened to his dispatch......" Elder Ming smiled and said unhurriedly, at this point, his words changed sharply, and he said in a deep voice, "If this young man thinks that he can take the initiative by doing this, he will underestimate the hegemony in this world!
Ling Feiyi listened to the firmness in the old man's tone, and knew that it could not be changed, so she had to stop speaking a little frustratedly.
Elder Ming noticed the unwillingness of the woman in front of him, shook his head and smiled: "Concubine Yi, you are also dozens of years old, why are you still like a child, why don't you say when the other party agreed?"
"Oh......" Ling Feiyi reluctantly responded, "The appointed time is tonight!"
"Tonight?" Elder Ming bowed slightly in satisfaction, and after a while, his white eyebrows were raised, and he said solemnly, "Now that we know who we should ally with next, then we won't be so idle! Concubine Yi, from today onwards, let all the disciples go out to find out the distribution of forces in this capital clearly! Knowing ourselves and knowing our opponents, we will not be defeated in a hundred battles, if we want to win, we must hurry up now, fortunately, Ye Meng has not yet arrived here!"
Ling Feiyi solemnly answered, and hurriedly left to prepare.
Elder Ming looked at the rising sun, his eyes flashed with a rare fierceness, and he muttered, "It seems that it's time to end......
