In the Zhizhuo Hall, Ouyang De held a white transmission talisman in his hand. Judging from the aura flowing out of the transmission talisman, it was a very rare Wanli transmission talisman.
There were only three people in the hall, Ouyang De, Situ Hao and Old Man Mi.
"Uncle Master, what do the Dongcang Clan say?" Situ Hao asked with a slightly dark face.
"The beast tide has mostly subsided, and Dongcang is safe."
Situ Hao's mouth trembled: "Uncle Master, you know I don't want to ask this, how is he?"
"He? Tianjiu?? It seems like you are afraid of him?!"
"No, Master, you know, I was the one who manipulated him to go to Dongcang..."
"Presumptuous! I don't know anything about what you are doing!" Ouyang De shouted angrily.
"Yes, yes! Disciple deserves to die! It's all the disciple's fault!" Situ Hao's face turned from black to white.
Seeing Situ Hao's nervous expression, Ouyang De sighed softly: "Oh! Why are you nervous? The sky will not fall. After all, you are still his master, what can he do to you?! The three of you who came back from your alchemy hall this time are pretty good.
Only one person from the sword hall has returned!"
"Three people? Aren't only Kejing and Lei Ming coming back?" Situ Hao said blankly.
"Pig Brain! He's back too! According to the speed of Dongfang Caixia's flying boat, it should be almost at the mountain gate." Ouyang De said angrily.
"Dongfang Caixia? He and Dongfang Caixia came back?" Situ Hao's hands shook slightly.
Old man Mi stood aside, his face also full of excitement.
"The evil sect, the evil sect! This good-for-nothing has actually won the favor of Xi Caixia. This world of immortality is going to be in chaos!!"
"Old man Mi, don't mention any useless material. You don't know what he did in Dongcang. I only tell you that he killed a third-level monster; ten people went to sea, and nine foundation-building monks died. Only
He came back alone. What does this mean? You can guess for yourself!"
"Ah~?!" Old Man Mi and Situ Hao were both speechless.
In fact, Ouyang De also felt a little uneasy in his heart. He arranged for one hundred Huachen disciples to leave Dongcang. Although Tianjiu was not his choice, he still had something to do with him.
"Uncle Master, what should I do?" Situ Hao asked in a low voice.
"What should I do? Go and greet him! What else can I do?! I called you here so that you can have some idea and make preparations to see how to welcome him back?! He is a person with no future, and he cannot
Let's start practicing again. As long as we comfort ourselves this time and don't cry or make trouble, everything will be fine for us. Both Sikong Xing and Wei Qiyin are in retreat, and they have reached the most critical moment. It can be inferred from the breaths coming out of the two caves,
Their golden elixir is condensing, and it is going very smoothly. It will be done in two days at most. What I need most now is stability and unity, stability and unity! Do you know?!"
Ouyang De said nervously and excitedly.
"Is it true? If so, our Huachen would suddenly have two more Golden Elixir monks! Great! Huachen's rise is promising!!" Old Man Mi shouted loudly.
This exciting news suddenly relieved the tense atmosphere in the palace.
"Hey, Hall Master Situ, if only your old man could practice cultivation, then you would have found a treasure!"
"Old man Mi, didn't you say he would die?! If he hadn't been able to practice, would I have sent him out? What evil had I done?! I offended him to death. The master was afraid of his apprentice, so tell him.
It’s all embarrassing!” Situ Hao said with a sad face.
Old Mi smiled slyly, and then looked at Ouyang De: "Uncle, I, Old Mi, have not offended him, nor blackmailed him for crystals. Do I have to lower my face to greet him?!"
"Eh? You didn't offend him?! Why did you shut up Mi Yatou? If he knew that you were treating Mi Yatou like this, I don't think you would have a good life either! Humph!!" Ouyang De snorted coldly at first, and then added
He said: "Yes, it's because your old man Mi has some friendship with him, and your Xiaomi has a close relationship with him, so with your participation, the situation will not get out of control!"
"Why are we so close?! Master, you are an elder, so you can't talk nonsense!! Girl Mi is innocent!"
"Hahaha! That's good, that's good! Remember, you must bring Mi Yatou with you!"
"Is it necessary? I finally tricked her into going home and locked her up in her mother's cave. Your words made all my efforts go to waste. Besides, you are the leader, and this god of plague treats you with utmost respect.
, are you afraid that he will be overturned?!"
"Haha, I'm sorry, I'm going to protect Wei Qiyin and Sikong Xing right away. At the critical moment when they are condensing the golden elixir, there can't be any mistakes. It will be up to you to welcome Tianjiu. You can also bring in other people.
Several hall masters went together to make the noise bigger, and he became even more speechless."
"Ah?!! You really don't want to go?" Situ Hao's old face trembled.
"I really can't go! Besides, isn't this sect competition coming soon? As soon as Wei Qiyin and Sikong Xing achieve their golden elixir, the inner sect competition will be held immediately. I want to take this opportunity to think about how to prepare it."
As Ouyang De spoke, he ducked and flew to the teleportation array behind the hall, stood on it, and added another sentence:
"You must pay attention to stability and unity!!"
"...?" Situ Hao and Old Man Mi looked at each other.

At the same time, in the sword hall's power transmission hall, Gu Baiyi stood among a row of fellow disciples, lowering his head as hard as he could, with a trace of cold sweat on his forehead. The destroyed arm had grown out, and there was no trace of it.
Strange.
Across from him, Hong Miao was walking around the hall irritably with his hands behind his back, his face gloomy.
Beside the jade table for imparting power, a fair-skinned monk at the top of the ninth level of Qi Refining leaned his thin body against the jade table, with a very unhappy expression on his face. He shook his calves from time to time, and threw spiritual fruits into his mouth from time to time. For
Hong Miao's depressed expression was completely ignored.
"Stupid pig! Ji Zhu can't beat Qi Refining, but you still have the nerve to come back. He even lost an arm. Are you going to collect pigs? I think you are about to become a fat pig to be slaughtered!!
"
Hong Miao pointed at Gu Baiyi and yelled.
"Dad, don't call people stupid pigs all the time. Brother Baiyi is already amazing. One Foundation Establishment Pill can build the foundation in half a month. Unlike me, who took six Foundation Establishment Pills in three years and still hasn't succeeded in establishing the Foundation. I'm serious."
I wonder if the Dantian is resistant to medicine?!" The Qi Refining monk at the jade table rolled his eyes and said.
Hong Miao's originally gray face suddenly turned purple, his old face twitched, and he shouted loudly: "Hong Tao, shut up! You stupid pig! I spent six Foundation Establishment Pills on me in three years, and you still have a face?"
Say, why didn't you hit your head and die? What are you doing here again?"
"Bah! Old guy! It's okay if you don't say it, but I'll get angry when you say it. What kind of foundation-building pills you made are all rubbish. Mom asked you to get some high-level ones, but you just can't bear to part with the flower crystal stone.
, what happened in the end? You didn’t treat me like a fart and let you go!”
"You...you...you! I will chop you up!"
"Go ahead! Go ahead! Die early and be born early! It's better than staying here and dying! Hey, if you don't care about the Hong family's descendants, you can kill me now!" Hong Tao pointed at his head and tilted his neck.
He came up to Hong Miao.
"Ancestors, please open your eyes and see what kind of evil I, Hong Miao, have done to give birth to such a coward?!"
Seeing such a situation, all the disciples bowed their heads deeply again. Gu Baiyi's face trembled and he said softly: "Master, please calm down, it's all the disciples' incompetence, it's not my fault..."
"Incompetent?" Hong Miao ignored his son and continued to roar: "You know that because of your incompetence, all my plans have failed. There are tens of thousands of spiritual pigs! If we get them back, we can just take them out and do whatever we want.
By selling them, you can earn tens of thousands of high-level crystals. This sect competition is about to begin. Without crystals, there is no magic weapon. Without magic weapons, what can we do to compete with Fufa Hall?"
"..." Gu Baiyi was speechless, his head lowered to his chest.
"Mu Zichang, didn't you go to Dongcang with that loser this time? How did he behave? Why did you let him come back alive?" Hong Miao then asked angrily.
"Master, my disciple was robbed on the way. The God of Plague was so frightened that he lay down on the crack of a rock. He was also scolded by Lord Tantai. After arriving in Dongcang, we all dispersed. We don't know how he behaved. We only know how to behave with him.
Senior Brother Li Mu, who was with us, died. I think he must have died to protect him. The tide of beasts in the East Blue was so terrifying that with just one impact, the two disciples of the sword hall were dead. Not even their souls could escape. They were killed.
Those monster beasts devoured them all." Mu Zichang said with lingering fear. Speaking of monster beasts, his pupils were dilated, as if he was still immersed in endless terror.
"Gu Baiyi, listen, you're such a useless piece of shit, you don't even have the strength to fight back?! You've completely embarrassed me. If I hadn't thought that you were still a foundation-building monk, I would have wanted to kill you.
Got you."
"Master, calm down. Junior Brother Gu has only been promoted for a few days after all, and his cultivation is not yet completely stable. Besides, the plague god is at the tenth level of Qi Refining. The master uncle said that he is not comparable to ordinary foundation-building monks, so his defeat is reasonable."
The red-browed monk on the far right clasped his fists and said.
This person has red eyebrows and black hair, a sturdy back, and stern eyes. His cultivation has reached the middle stage of foundation building.
"Chimei, as a senior brother, you should protect your junior brother, but this Gu Baiyi really disappoints me. He can't even complete the simplest second-level task. Alas, how sad! Since Sikong Lan went into seclusion, you have not
One thing that gives me peace of mind. This competition is the best opportunity for a teacher to make his mark. If he successfully wins the first place and is named a core disciple, then our sword hall will stand out. All the resources for cultivating immortals will be tilted towards our sword.
Tang, the master’s promotion to Jindan is just around the corner.”
Hong Miao said a little discouraged.
"Aren't there still Deacon Sikong and Senior Brother Wei Qiyin? Master, are you sure of defeating them?" Chimei asked doubtfully.
"Idiot!"
Hong Miao slapped Chi Mei on the head and said harshly:
"They have all advanced to the golden elixir, and they have grown up, so what kind of core disciples do they still have?! Did you get kicked in the head by a donkey?!"
At this moment, a transmission note shot out and fell into Hong Miao's hands.
Hong Miao was furious. He swept his spiritual consciousness and was stunned for an instant.
"What's wrong, master?" Chimei touched her aching head and asked cautiously.
"Hmph! Are these old ghosts crazy? They actually want to hold a welcome party at the main entrance?!"
Hong Miao was as gloomy as water, and he came out with a puff of his sleeves.
※※
A line of silver escaping light flew slowly from the western sky and entered the Huachen Mountain Gate from a distance. The escaping light slowly grew larger, revealing dozens of Huachen disciples, headed by an inner gate disciple wearing silver.
The robe is exactly Tianjiu who returned to Lingzhu Valley from Dongcang, and then returned to the mountain gate.
"Boss, there's a situation!"
Li Tianhua stood on Tianjiu's flying sword and whispered softly.
In front of the gate of Huachen Mountain, Situ Hao and dozens of Alchemy Hall disciples stood solemnly in front of the square on the left side. On the right side were Old Man Mi and a group of female disciples from the outer sect. The female disciples were dressed in colorful dresses and holding various musical instruments in their hands.
"Coming, coming! Play music, play music!!"
Old Man Mi shook his beard and shouted loudly.
Immediately, fairy music swirled around and resounded through the mountain gate.
"Huh?! Who are they welcoming?" Tianjiu was puzzled and immediately stopped more than a thousand feet away. He turned around and looked around, but he didn't find any other monks approaching nearby.
"rise!!"
Situ Hao waved his hand, and behind him, a curtain of light suddenly appeared, a hundred feet long and ten feet high.
The light screen clearly read: "Welcome to the Tenth Disciple of the Alchemy Hall, Tianjiu, who has returned from hunting!"
"Boss, you are welcome!!" Li Tianhua said, scratching the back of his head.
"Really?! Mom, what kind of plane are you doing?!"
Tianjiu's face trembled several times, and the resentment originally buried deep in his heart disappeared.
"Master, Deacon Mi, what are you doing?"
Tianjiu jumped off the flying sword and stood a hundred feet away from the two bosses.
"Hehehe! Tianjiu, congratulations on your safe return! You see, as soon as we learned that you were back, we immediately came to the main entrance to greet you. Your master was also very happy, and he also brought most of the Alchemy Hall disciples to greet you.
!Hehehe, aren’t you very touched?!”
Old Man Mi shook his faint beard, smiled and spoke with his fists in his hands. That look was so ugly, so ugly.
