As soon as Chen Changsheng and Gao Yuan stepped into the mountain gate, the gatekeepers in the sect immediately stopped them, and then looked at them very vigilantly, and after a while, the gatekeeper's eyes narrowed slightly, and he asked Chen Changsheng coldly: "Why did Elder Chen return to the sect in the middle of the night, who are these two people around you?"

Chen Changsheng didn't know why the two unfathomable cultivators behind him wanted him to take them back to the Danxia Sect together, and also threatened to meet the highest-ranking elders in their sect except for the three sect masters, but he was originally established with a very fast speed of brain rotation, so he hurriedly replied: "These two people are my distant relatives, and their families are all in business, I specially invited the two of them to go back to the sect to meet the five great elders, there is something important to discuss, you can let them go quickly." ”

The door protector has an upright personality, seeing that the other party's answer is ambiguous, he still has doubts in his heart, but he is not good at refuting anything on this matter, after all, with his position, when it comes to important matters of the sect, he does not dare to interfere more, but he wants him to let strangers into the sect, he is also a little embarrassed, therefore, after thinking for a while, he changed his words and asked: "I don't know where are those disciples of the same sect who went down the mountain with Elder Chen to travel on the mission, and why didn't they return to the sect with Elder Chen?"

Chen Changsheng, as an elder in the sect, although he did not have any martial arts and cultivation, but in fact, he had accumulated power for a long time, but now he was blocked by a low-level watchdog and repeatedly interrogated, and he was very unhappy in his heart, especially when he also noticed that the man behind him who had almost strangled him to death before had invisibly exuded a burst of killing intent that made him feel cold and piercing, so he felt nervous for no reason, for fear that the other party would kill him in anger.

It doesn't hurt to kill this watchdog, but if you are also implicated for no reason and lose your life to the pond fish, it will really be a grievance.

So, Chen Changsheng's face immediately turned pale, and he replied in a low tone: "All of you juniors and disciples are still transporting grain on the road in the rear, and you will be able to rush back to the sect smoothly tomorrow morning, don't worry too much about interrogation, if I delay reporting to the great elders about the major affairs of the sect, there will definitely be your good fruits to eat at that time." ”

Seeing Chen Changsheng in front of him, he was already slightly angry at this moment, this guardian didn't dare to insist too much after all, after all, the status difference between the two in the sect was very different, if the former was resentful of himself because of this little thing, and then gave him small shoes to wear afterwards, he would be far from being able to bear it.

The gatekeeper hesitated for a moment, and then replied a little helplessly: "Okay, since that's the case, then ask Elder Chen and your two distant relatives to follow me to meet the five great elders." ”

Seeing that the other party wanted to lead the way for him, Chen Changsheng, who was already familiar with the sect, immediately showed a trace of impatience on his face, and said bluntly: "Don't bother you to bring it, I can go to the main hall of the sect to meet the five great elders." ”

After hearing this, the door protector couldn't help but turn his head and squint at him, and then replied in a flat tone: "If Elder Chen goes to the main hall of the sect, but he can't see the five great elders, what's the matter, Elder Chen can't even forget what day it is because he is too busy, right?"

Hearing the other party's reminder, Chen Changsheng's heart couldn't help but chuckle, he really forgot, today is the first day of the sixth month. According to the tradition of the Danxia Sect, every year on this day, all the disciples of the Danxia Sect must go to the main peak to perform a mountain worship ceremony.

Gao Yuan, who was following behind, heard the Sect Protector say this, so he asked Chen Changsheng, "What, is there anything else to pay attention to today?"

Chen Changsheng could ignore the ridicule of the sect protector to him, but he had to answer honestly to the question raised by the man behind him, and he replied with a smile: "That's the case, every year on the first day of June, it is the day when all the disciples of my Danxia Sect must worship the mountain god, so it is also called the mountain god sacrifice, although our three sect masters are now temporarily leaving the sect because of important matters, but this tradition can not be stopped, counting the time, now the sacrifice should be carried out to the most important time." ”

When Gao Yuan heard this, he didn't have much surprise in his heart.

In the Wuzhou Continent, there are many kinds of customs and sacrifices like the Danxia Sect, especially among the people in the market, such as the Dragon King Sacrifice, the Mountain God Sacrifice, and the Sea God Sacrifice abound, and he pondered for a moment before he asked: "In this way, the five great elders of your Danxia Sect should all gather together for this Mountain God Sacrifice now, right?"

Chen Changsheng nodded and replied: "Yes, and it's not just the five great elders, except for a few disciples with special positions in the sect, they must all be gathered on the back mountain at this moment. ”

When Gao Yuan heard this, his eyes couldn't help but flash a trace of coolness, but on his face, an indescribable smile gradually appeared, and he suddenly said in a low tone: "That's even better." ”

Cao Haiping, who had always been following him, couldn't help frowning when he observed the sneering smile on Gao Yuan's face at this moment, and he hesitated for a moment before he asked, "Brother Gao, the matter has not been dealt with yet, should you be thinking about ......?"

Although Cao Haiping didn't finish the words in his mouth, Gao Yuan knew what he wanted to ask, so he smiled and replied: "These two things don't conflict, do they?" But Brother Cao, don't worry, since I have promised you in advance that I will help you intercept and kill that young man together, I will naturally not break my promise, but I must know some of my identity, I will go south with you this time, and I have other responsibilities in myself, not to mention, the three brothers of this Danxia Sect happen to be not in the sect, but we happened to encounter this group of wine bags and rice bags ambushing us on the road, doesn't this just save us from spending extra time looking for this den of thieves? Don't admit it, if you didn't have the rice bucket in front of you to help lead the way, it would have taken a lot of time and effort for you and me to successfully find the Danxia Sect in these labyrinthine mountains and forests, so now that such a wonderful opportunity has appeared, how can I let it be missed?"

When Cao Haiping heard this, he couldn't help but sigh faintly in his heart, but said with some worry: "What Senior Brother said is true, but I'm afraid that in this Danxia Sect, in addition to the three bandit leaders, there are also some top masters, if there is really an existence with the same strength as you and me, then the two of us will be surrounded by a heavy siege after our identities are exposed." ”

When Gao Yuan heard this, he replied with a smile: "Brother Cao, you have thought too much about this, if there are so many masters in this Danxia Sect, then why are they still stuck on the threshold of the third-rate sect? You know, your Yunxia Sect is already the mainstay of the eight second-rate sects in Lingzhou, is you the only one who has broken through to the sixth rank?" You just put a hundred hearts, except for the three brothers who are still a little tricky to deal with, the others of this Danxia Sect are definitely not troublesome, and if we really encounter an opponent with equal strength in the future, it is a big deal that we will continue to act as distant relatives of this rice bucket, I don't think they will dare to tear our faces directly. ”

After Cao Haiping heard the other party's words, he could only continue to sigh in his heart, and nodded back with a nod on his face: "I hope the result can really be as the senior brother said."

About two quarters of an hour later.

The door protector took Gao Yuan and the three of them, and finally came to the back mountain range of the Danxia Sect, and along the way, as Chen Changsheng said before, basically all the disciples of the Danxia Sect have gathered on the back mountain at this moment, so it makes the entire sect look completely dead, and even half a figure can not be seen. However, when they approached this back mountain, Gao Yuan found that even though he was still a long way from the halfway point of the mountain, where there were people piled up and flames were filled, he could clearly feel that the number of people in this sect called Danxia Sect had reached a full five or six hundred.

This is quite rare in terms of the number of third-rate sects, you must know that in the entire territory of Lingzhou, most of the young disciples who want to choose to practice will take the lead in flocking to the top sects in the Hundred Mountains Ancestor, if they are not selected, they will choose the remaining second-rate sects such as Yunxia Sect, which are slightly lower grades, so when someone takes the initiative to choose a third-rate sect like Danxia Sect to learn from a teacher, the chance is undoubtedly quite small.

However, when Gao Yuan came to a gentle square on the back mountain, the doubts in his heart about the scale of the Danxia Sect finally got a complete answer, that is, he found that the reason why this Danxia Sect reached so many people in terms of numbers was that two-thirds of them were ordinary people from the market, and there was no cultivation at all, and those cultivators who had cultivation could not reach the stage at all, and only a dozen people could be regarded as having reached the realm of the third grade.

As for being above the realm of the three grades?

Except for the five Great Elders who were in the middle of the square, surrounded by a large pile of coals as if they were muttering some sacrificial words, there was no one.

Gao Yuan continued to diffuse his perception and probed the true cultivation of these five great elders, and found that except for the oldest old man with the oldest face who had reached the early stage of the five-rank realm, the other three were still at the fourth-rank realm, but what surprised him was that among these five people, there was actually a sword cultivator whose cultivation had reached the fourth floor.

"You just wait here, and when the five great elders finish worshipping the mountain god, they will naturally call you to go to the meeting. ”

Hearing this sentence from the gatekeeper who had gone over first to pass the news and then hurriedly returned, Chen Changsheng just nodded to him with a solemn face, but he didn't say anything, after all, no matter how anxious he was at the moment, it was impossible for him to risk taboos to interrupt the ongoing mountain god sacrifice.

Fortunately, after he told Gao Yuan about the matter, the latter only nodded with an extremely calm face, and did not feel any displeasure, and even looked at the mountain god sacrifice in front of him with interest.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was four o'clock in the hour, which meant that this mountain god festival, which lasted all day, had finally come to an end.

After the five Great Elders finished their final rituals, they walked briskly towards Chen Changsheng and the others, and after the oldest of them glanced at Chen Changsheng, he asked, "I heard that you have brought two distant relatives back, what important matter do you want to discuss with us, what is the matter?" ”

Chen Changsheng had only answered this way according to Gao Yuan's instructions before, but he didn't know what exactly he wanted to discuss, so after hearing the Great Elder's question, he couldn't help but want to give up the position of his conversation to Gao Yuan behind him.

However, before he could move his steps, Gao Yuan, who had been standing behind him, suddenly stretched out one of his palms and slapped it on the top of his head.

A volley fell.

Chen Changsheng fell directly to his knees, and then smashed the ground under his feet into a deep pit, and then died violently in front of the five great elders without any accidents.

The occurrence of this scene immediately caused a sensation at the scene, and the oldest of them shouted coldly: "Your Excellency dares to commit murder in my sect's holy land, who are you and what do you want to do?"

In the face of this series of questions, Gao Yuan only replied with a sneer: "This person is at the foot of the mountain, with seven or eight people who wanted to rob the two of us, but in the end he failed to ambush us, but was captured by me, so I asked him to bring me to your sect as a guest." ”

Seeing that the other party seemed to be deliberately trying to tease him, the Great Elder's face had become very ugly, and he continued to ask in a cold tone, "Since the two of you are here to be guests on the mountain, why do you want to kill Elder Chen here in front of all the disciples of our sect?"

When Gao Yuan heard this question, he didn't intend to continue pretending, he shot directly at the old man not far in front of him, and at the same time didn't forget to sneer and replied: "Because I want to slaughter you scum of the cultivation world who also kill mortals in the market!"

......

Feeling a sudden burst of killing intent behind him, Lao Qiao, who had just dropped the garbage in his hand, did not show any panicked look, he just sped up and turned around, and then stretched out his right hand in an instant and held it high above his head.

"Bang" with a bang!

A hand knife with a huge force of thousands of catties suddenly slashed down from mid-air, but then the man who had a shady hand behind his back was easily resisted by the old man in front of him who did not look amazing, or even as ordinary as an old peasant.

It was from the three brothers in the inn, the middle-aged man who was the eldest brother noticed this scene and his face was shocked, but he did not slow down at all, but kicked Lao Qiao in the chest again.

Seeing that the other party was so unforgiving, the expression on his face was still not arrogant or impatient, and after that, he also made a move that surprised the other party, that is, not only did he not choose to dodge the other party's kick sideways, but instead stretched out his free left hand, and then held his hand into a fist and hit the soles of the opponent's feet with a punch.

Another ear-popping sound sounded in the middle of a rainy night.

Lao Qiao stood in place and did not move, but the middle-aged man who made a sneak attack on him instantly swept out of the air seven or eight feet, and even staggered after landing on the ground, but fortunately, this man did not fall to the ground after all, otherwise his dry clothes would have to be soaked in a large area.

Feeling a sharp pain coming from under his right foot, the middle-aged man couldn't help but gasp, and at this moment, he didn't even dare to step on the ground too hard.

Seeing that he forcibly stopped his body, with a hint of sarcasm on his face, Lao Qiao opened his mouth and said, "As a cultivator in the world, how can you be so unstable and dare to make a move in a populous town? ”

When the middle-aged man saw that he dared to ridicule himself, a cold glow appeared in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "I didn't expect you to be an old horseman, and your strength is so profound." ”

Lao Qiao heard the other party's abuse, but he shook his head in disagreement, and replied: "I look at Your Excellency's face, it should also be a person who has passed the year of destiny, I just look a few years older than you on the surface, but in fact, it should be almost the same as your age, your old puppet, the call is really a bit eye-catching, but it doesn't matter, since you dare to do something to me, then you don't want to go again." ”

When the middle-aged man heard this, his face instantly turned gloomy, and he said in a cold voice: "Do you really think you can eat me?" Without waiting for Lao Qiao to speak, he said to the dark night sky: "Don't hide the two younger brothers, come out and deal with this old horseman first." ”

As soon as the words fell.

Two figures suddenly jumped out of the darkness, and then in a triangular shape, they surrounded Lao Qiao in the middle very tacitly.

When Lao Qiao saw this scene, his heart was not shocked, he glanced at them slightly, and he had already noticed through his own perception that the three people surrounding him at this moment were all at the peak of the five-rank realm.

"Up!"

After a short snort.

The three men rushed towards Lao Qiao at the same time, and it can be seen that they are almost the same in terms of body style and timing, but Lao Qiao still doesn't care about their joint efforts, just laughs "It's good", and then took a few steps in a row, jumped up to the bare wall next to him, and successfully avoided the siege of the other three.

Turning over from the wall and landing on the ground, a huge fist shadow struck quickly towards his front door with lightning speed, as if the other party wanted to use this punch to explode his entire head.

When Lao Qiao felt this punch, he sneered in his heart, and instantly poured his body backwards, but only after pouring out a fist that could avoid the other party, it stopped abruptly.

Seeing that he punched in the air, the middle-aged man who was the last of the three had a solemn face, but without any pause, he bent his elbow, and then slammed it down on the chest of Old Joe, who was half-diagonally to the ground.

If he was hit in the chest by the other party's elbow, there was no doubt that even if Lao Qiao was much higher than him in the realm, he would definitely not feel any better, so Lao Qiao immediately put his feet on the waterlogged road, continued to step a few steps, controlled his body to slide backwards, and completely distanced himself from the other party.

However, just after he had just opened up a breath from the other party, he suddenly reversed his body and rushed forward, and threw a punch at the middle-aged man with retreat.

This punch was a punch that Lao Qiao really chose to attack head-on in addition to smashing the soles of his feet before, but compared to the punches he showed at the moment, the cultivation that broke out on him made them all feel dumbfounded the most.
