Chapter Seventy-Seven: Know Yourself and the Enemy
Hearing Fanchuan say that he knew the cultivator who called himself Zhong Bei, the two cultivators guarding the palace gate immediately turned around and ran outside the palace to invite Zhong Bei into the palace.
Fanchuan sat on a chair in the center of the palace, waiting for Zhong Bei to come in, while Wan Ling followed Fanchuan and sat on a chair next to Fanchuan.
At this time, Elder Zheng Li looked at the woman sitting next to Fan Chuan. Since the woman had a veil on her face, she didn't seem to recognize who it was. However, looking at Fan Chuan, he didn't seem to object to the woman sitting next to him. Zheng Li
The elder said nothing and stood straight on the other side of Fanchuan.
After a while, the two cultivators guarding the palace gate brought Zhong Bei into the palace. When Zhong Bei saw Fanchuan, he was surprised at first, and said with confusion on his face: "Brother Jueshang? Why did you come to the sect master too?"
Palace? And why so fast?" After saying that, he looked at Fanchuan intently, as if he was afraid that he had recognized the wrong person.
"Why don't you kneel down when you see Sect Master Fanchuan?" Elder Zheng Li on the side couldn't understand Zhong Bei's words. He saw Zhong Bei looking at Fanchuan blankly, so he shouted sharply.
"Elder Zhengli, it's okay, he is my brother, there is no need to be so restrained," Fanchuan waved his hand to Elder Zhengli and said.
"Yes, it was Zheng Li who was negligent." Elder Zheng Li resignedly stepped aside, but he was wondering why Fanchuan had such a brother. He had never heard of it. It wasn't just Bai Pingren, Pu Xuan and Shen You.
After thinking for a while to no avail, Elder Zheng Li stopped thinking and looked at Fanchuan and Zhong Bei quietly.
But at this time, Zhong Bei saw it and was shocked in his heart. He looked at Fanchuan with eyes wide open and his mouth wide open. He couldn't make a sound for a long time until he heard Fanchuan's cough.
Just then he reacted, and immediately knelt down in front of Fanchuan, and said in a very ungrateful voice: "What a disaster... no, no, Fan... Sect Master Fanchuan, Zhong Bei doesn't know your honor, Sect Master, Zhong Bei deserves to die,
Damn it." After saying that, Zhong Bei lowered his head and knelt on the ground, his body trembling slightly.
Seeing Zhong Bei's condition at this time, Fan Chuan walked towards Zhong Bei with a smile, reached out to help Zhong Bei, whose body was already weak, and said warmly: "Brother Zhong Bei, don't be so restrained. I didn't mean to hide it from you before.
Brother Zhong Bei, don’t be surprised.”
"Zhong Bei doesn't dare, Zhong Bei doesn't dare." Zhong Bei looked at Jue Shi who was smiling at this time, no, it should be Sect Master Fanchuan, and then he was willing to believe the reality he saw with his own eyes.
"Haha, brother Zhong Bei, don't be afraid, you and I are still brothers." Fanchuan tried to comfort Zhong Bei again.
After hearing Fanchuan's words, Zhong Bei's face relaxed a little, but his trembling body still did not stop completely. He hesitated and said: "Thank you so much, Master, for your forgiveness."
"By the way, brother Zhong Bei, I heard you say before that Elder Ziyue asked you to come to ask for Elder Zheng Li. Why?" Fanchuan pretended to put aside the topic, feeling that this could make Zhong Bei relax.
Sure enough, Zhong Bei, who was still nervous just now, immediately softened his tone and said: "Well, my master wanted Elder Zheng Li to go to my master's place, but the master didn't tell me why, but I
...I guess it may be about Elder Qingxie." After saying that, Zhong Bei looked at Fanchuan in reverence.
After listening to Zhong Bei's words, Fan Chuan recalled that there had been some quarrels and minor frictions between Elder Zi Yue and Elder Zheng Li. Now that Zi Yue asked Zhong Bei to invite Zheng Li, it seems that Zi Yue is still
He did not put down his dignity and refused to visit Zhengli in person.
"Let's see, Zhong Bei, are you tired from this trip? Just rest aside for a while. I'll find someone to invite Elder Ziyue here." After saying that, Fanchuan looked at Zhengli again, and then
Said: "Elder Zhengli, please quickly send someone to invite Elder Ziyue, Elder Anwu and several other elders to the main hall, and say that I am back."
"Yes, follow the order of the sect master," Zheng Li clasped his hands in his fists, bowed his head and nodded. After saying that, he immediately walked out of the hall and went to give instructions to his disciples.
But Zhong Bei stayed where he was, not moving his body, lowering his head, and not speaking, as if he was thinking about something.
"Brother Zhong Bei, go take a rest, don't be so formal," Fan Chuan looked at Zhong Bei and said aloud.
"Oh, thank you so much, Master Fanchuan." Zhong Bei saluted Fanchuan again, then turned and walked to the side of the palace, sitting cross-legged on the palace floor, his expression a little dull, as if he still hadn't completely recovered from what he had just said.
Came out in shock.
Seeing this, Fanchuan nodded with satisfaction, then turned to look at Wan Ling beside him, and whispered: "Ling'er, are you feeling better?"
Wan Ling nodded slightly and said nothing, with some sadness and anger in his eyes.
Just when Fanchuan was about to speak again to comfort Wan Ling, he suddenly felt a surge of true energy coming towards him from behind. Very quickly, Fanchuan immediately took out his true energy to protect himself and Wan Ling, and turned his head towards the person who was rushing towards him.
Look in the direction.
When he saw clearly the person who was gushing out his true energy, Fanchuan couldn't help but laugh out loud. He immediately withdrew his true energy and opened his hands in a hug. After a while, a strange black animal jumped in.
Entering Fanchuan's arms, this strange little animal is Fanchuan's little friend, the spirit beast, who has been away for more than ten years.
I saw Fanchuan gently stroking the hair of the spirit beast, and said warmly: "Xiao Hei, I finally see you. It has been more than ten years, and you still haven't changed."
The spirit beast Xiao Hei seemed to understand Fanchuan's words, and pushed his head hard against Fanchuan's arms, and made a "buzzing" sound from his mouth.
"What kind of little animal is this? It's so cute." Wan Ling also leaned over and looked at the spiritual beast in Fanchuan's arms and said.
"Oh, Ling'er, this is Xiao Hei. I found it in the Heavenly Tribulation Spiritual Realm. If Xiaohei hadn't led me to find the exit of the Heavenly Tribulation Spiritual Realm, the two of us might still be trapped in it now." Fanchuan
Looking at Xiao Hei in his arms, he said softly. While speaking, there was a trace of joy on his face.
"Oh, Xiao Hei is so cute, let me hug him." Wan Ling looked at the cute spirit beast and her mood seemed to have improved a little. As she spoke, she reached out to touch Xiao Hei.
I saw Xiao Hei shrinking into Fanchuan's arms with some fear, as if resisting Wan Ling, which made Wan Ling feel frustrated.
Seeing this, Fanchuan wanted to laugh, but he didn't dare to laugh out loud, so he stroked Xiaohei and said warmly: "Xiaohei, be good, let this sister hug you." Fanchuan said to Wan Lingzhi
He winked.
Wan Ling immediately understood what Fan Chuan meant, so she stretched out her hands and said, "Come on, Xiao Hei, let sister hug you."
This time, Xiao Hei surprisingly didn't hide anymore, and lay down in Wan Ling's arms. Wan Ling looked at Xiao Hei in his arms, maybe he was quite happy, so that the veil around his face was floating gently.
.
After getting Xiao Hei's Wanling, his attention was distracted. It seemed that he no longer felt so suppressed sadness and anger. He happily hugged Xiao Hei and sat on the chair, constantly teasing Xiao Hei and smiling.
There was an attraction all the time, which made Fanchuan almost fascinated again, but the occasion was not suitable for such actions. Fanchuan immediately calmed down and looked at the people who were having fun at this time.
One man and one beast shook their heads feebly.
At this moment, Elder Zheng Li walked in from outside the hall, approached Fanchuan, saluted Fanchuan, and then said: "Sect Master Fanchuan, I have sent people to inform the other elders respectively. I believe
When all the elders learn that you are back, they will definitely come in time."
"Well, Elder Zhengli is tired. Elder Zhengli doesn't need to be polite." As he spoke, Fanchuan stretched out his hand to help Zhengli.
Elder Zheng Li looked at Fanchuan with admiration in his eyes. It's just that Fanchuan didn't have the arrogance of the sect master and the aloof feeling. Instead, he was approachable and very simple and kind to everyone. From what Zhong Bei had just seen,
It's not hard to see.
"By the way, Elder Zheng Li, I want to ask you about Qing Xie. What kind of person is he? And what kind of power do you mean when you say he is powerful?" Fanchuan didn't want to know.
To fight an uncertain battle, first understand the opponent's situation, which will be of great help in subsequent battles.
After Zheng Li listened to Fanchuan's question, the admiration in his eyes became even greater, so he immediately replied: "Back to Fanchuan Sect Leader, Qing Xie, first of all, has a very high level of cultivation, almost the same as Zhenren Lingguan.
, but this person is good at tricky and weird magic, so that his cultivation realm has never been improved. The previous cultivation realm of Lingguan Zhenren was not as good as Qing Xie's, all because Qing Xie had a mountain god a hundred years ago.
When the door opened, he went out once. No one knew what he encountered in the outside world. Anyway, his cultivation level has not improved since then, but there are many more evil arts, and the cultivation level of Master Lingguan
The realm has now caught up with Qing Xie, and is even higher than Qing Xie."
Zheng Li told Fan Chuan carefully. Seeing that Fan Chuan was still listening attentively, Zheng Li continued: "As for the power behind him, it is the group of disciples he trained. The cultivation of his disciples
Although the realm is not too high, they all have a whole body of evil arts. Compared with other disciples in the sect who are in the same realm, they have an advantage. Alas, in fact, the leader of the Huaichen clan has advised Qing Qing many times before.
Xie don't touch those evil arts again, but Qing Xie verbally agreed very well, but he still continued those evil arts in private, and the Huaichen Sect Master was because Qing Xie had saved his life, and Qing Xie's evil arts were not
There is no harm done to Yeyue Sect, so I have always turned a blind eye to Qing Xie, but I didn't expect that this Qing Xie would dare to rebel just after Huaichen Sect Master ascended to the throne, huh." Elder Zheng Li said,
The angrier he became as he spoke, and by the time he finished speaking, the anger on his face could no longer be concealed. His hands were clenched into fists, and the joints of his fingers "popped".
After listening to Zheng Li's introduction, Fanchuan was a little shocked. No wonder Lin Zhe was so arrogant before. It turned out that Master Qingxie was behind him. However, Fanchuan was still confused about this Qingxie. After going out once,
There were more evil spells when I came back. This must be related to some evil cult from the outside world. Speaking of evil cults, Fanchuan suddenly thought of the ancient curse cult, but he was not sure about it. He didn't think about it anymore, but Fanchuan had an idea.
The thought of seeing Qingxie himself.
"Thank you, Elder Zheng Li, for telling me." Fan Chuan calmed down his shock and looked at Zheng Li and said.
"Master Fanchuan is too polite. This is what I should do." Zheng Li said somewhat flattered.
But while the two were talking, a burst of bustling noise suddenly came from outside the hall, and Fanchuan and Zhengli looked over in response...
