Chapter 690: Little Huasheng, looking for his uncle
Today is the day when a delegation from Tiansang City arrives at Dongtianwang City.
Members of the accompanying delegation include disciples from the inner courtyard of Tiansang Ling Palace, young alchemists from the Alchemist Association, young spiritual formation masters from the Spiritual Formation Masters Association, etc.
Although these forces dislike each other in Tiansang City and are tit for tat.
But now, as fellow members participating in the trial in the royal city, there is a sense of mutual sympathy and mutual support.
After all, under the pressure of the absolute power of the royal city, there are also forces from other counties and cities outside that are eyeing it.
If people in the same city do not choose to stick together, they may only be severely defeated by external forces.
As for this delegation from Tiansang City, there are three main leaders: Ye Xiaotian, Shiti, and Chao Zhidao.
"President Shiti, please stay! There is danger here!"
The delegation had just set foot in the headquarters of the Royal City Alchemist Association, and the reception staff inside let out such an exclamation.
Everyone was nervous now.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that there is something very wrong in the atmosphere inside the headquarters of the Alchemist Association.
The old man took a step forward, a tower-shaped array plate flew out of his hand, and he was full of momentum. The tower-shaped barrier was to protect the young talents behind him.
As the president of the Tiansang City Spiritual Formation Master Association, Chao Zhidao's first reaction to deal with this situation was to take the lead in protecting the safety of the major members of the delegation.
Ye Xiaotian floated behind the team.
He did not move, but the disciples belonging to Tiansang Spiritual Palace were immediately twisted by the power of space and were all attracted to him.
"This is?"
Shiti is the most calm person.
He is the only one who fully understands the power of the Alchemist Association Headquarters in the Royal City. Naturally, he does not think that any accidents like the explosion of the Dan Pagoda in Tiansang City can happen to the Dan Pagoda here.
His footsteps stopped at the door, and his gaze passed over the receptionist and fell on the inner hall, the center of focus.
——A girl!
No matter how good-looking this girl is, she will not attract Shiti's attention.
But by chance, there was a very eye-catching large bathtub standing next to her.
For others, such a "bathtub" shaped alchemy might really cause misunderstandings and commotion, but for Shiti, this thing is simply not too impressive!
"Xu's Alchemy Cauldron?" At this time, another old man beside Shiti stood up. He wiped his dim eyes and spoke in surprise.
His name is Yunhe.
He was the first victim of the explosion of the Dan Pagoda in Tiansang City that day. Compared with this standard Xu's Dan Cauldron, he was even more impressive than Shiti.
"You read that right, it should be Danding. There are not so many coincidences in this world."
"There is no doubt that the boy named Xu used a bath of this size to make alchemy that day... The alchemy cauldron is correct."
"Is this girl a fellow student of that Mr. Xu?"
"I think it should be right..."
Tiansang City Alchemist Association, many seniors came this time.
Every royal city trial on the eve of the Holy Palace selection is the only reason for these old guys to leave the city.
Because such an alchemy event is a great channel for major alchemists to exchange experiences with each other and make up for their own shortcomings.
And among these people, they are naturally familiar with the alchemy cauldron owned by the little girl not far away.
After all, that day, Xu Xiaoshou left an indelible impression on almost all the old alchemists in Tiansang City.
"what happened?"
Shiti squinted his eyes and asked, pointing his finger at the guards who appeared in groups in the inner hall, and asked: "How is it appropriate for the association headquarters to behave like this?"
As the president of the Tiansang City Alchemist Association, even if he goes to Dongtian King City, Shiti's level is the same as the honorary vice-president of the Royal City Alchemist Association headquarters.
In terms of actual power, it is one level lower than the authority of the Elder Council, which is actually a very high level.
"President Shiti."
The receptionist stepped forward, bowed slightly nervously, and immediately explained: "This girl came to visit President Dong Ling, but she couldn't produce a token to prove her identity, and she didn't have an appointment record. The key... …”
She lowered her voice and whispered: "President Dong Ling, the vice-presidents, and the elders have all gone to the Holy Temple with the people from the City Lord's Mansion to discuss the details of the 'Alchemy Trial'. At this moment, there is a vacancy at the top of the association headquarters. , that’s why…”
The receptionist boss said and stopped, obviously there is no need to say more about what happened next.
Just when the president is no longer around, a little girl like this who knows how to refine people appears. Her purpose and combat power are still a bit unclear. Who wouldn't be nervous?
Shiti thought for a moment and waved his hand.
"Let them back off first."
These words were said to the guards.
The guards obviously knew the division president who had been to the headquarters many times, and they immediately retreated after receiving the order.
The master reminded the people inside the Alchemy Pagoda to be calm. He stood up and came to Hua Xi, and said kindly: "Girl, can you show me your alchemist badge?"
No matter who is carrying the alchemy cauldron to the Dan Pagoda, they should not be besieged, even if the alchemy cauldron looks very out of place.
This is Shiti's idea.
"no."
Hua Wei shook his head and then asked: "Are you the president of the branch of the Alchemist Association? Your name is Shiti?"
"yes."
Shiti nodded, a little surprised at the girl's calmness in the face of danger.
The other person really didn't look like a bad person. As for his tone, I could hear a little respect, but more of it was a condescending attitude.
At this time, the situation was more like his Shiti was a junior, and the little girl in front of him was a very senior person.
Respect is due to her age.
She called him by his first name because she couldn't call him "Senior" more than once, otherwise the relationship would be completely messed up.
Shiti had a strange feeling in his heart.
In this little girl, he could vaguely see a trace of his friend Sang Qiye who had wild ideas.
But more importantly, I saw a lot of things about Sang Lao's apprentice, the more arrogant and domineering Xu Xiaoshou.
"You are the branch president? That's easy!"
When Hua Yi received a positive reply, her eyes lit up, she patted the alchemy and said, "Do you know this big treasure?"
"ah--"
A scream erupted at the right moment inside the alchemy cauldron.
Shiti frowned. He could tell that it was a human cry, and the strange feeling in his heart became clearer.
"I know," Shiti nodded, a little doubtful at the same time, "I just don't know if the 'big treasure' you are talking about and the 'big treasure' I know are the same thing."
"It will be easier if we know each other!"
Hua Shi slapped her thigh, showing no pity for her own image.
Others don't know how rare Jinzhao's lineage is, but she knows it herself!
In the world, all those who can make elixirs on such a scale are our own people. Even if this teacher knows me, he is not my senior uncle Xu Xiaoshou.
Those must also be Master Xu’s disciples and disciples, the genius alchemists of his generation!
"Let's go to the secret room to discuss."
Hua Shi took Shiti's hand, like a member of her family, and walked to the box at the headquarters of her association.
However, after taking a few steps, she remembered that this was not her home, and turned back to the receptionist with some scorn: "Where is the private room you mentioned just now?"
The receptionist was confused.
Not only was she confused, but the delegation members from Tiansang City were also confused, and the melon-eating people inside Danta were also confused.
How could this girl have the confidence to lift President Shiti's hand like this?
Doesn’t she know how to respect elders and the difference between men and women?
"Girl, please pay attention to your words and deeds..." The receptionist boss looked at Hua Yi angrily.
Shiti doesn't mind.
He was now more likely to be certain of his inner thoughts, and said to the receptionist: "It doesn't matter, special people should be treated specially, and they should cultivate their moral character. Don't be impulsive. We must learn to be tolerant and generous..."
As he spoke, Shi Ti looked across the crowd and towards Ye Xiaotian who was guarding the back of the team.
"Dean Ye, please come over here. He may be the one looking for you."
Ye Xiaotian frowned, silently gave a few instructions to Zhao Xidong beside him, and floated forward.
"please."
The teacher was familiar with the location of the box. He took out the hand held by Hua Shi and said to the two of them.
Afterwards, Shiti looked at the team again: "Brother Chao, please lead the team. Let's take a short rest with the Danta staff!"
"Okay." Chao Zhidao nodded and arranged the team behind him.
…
Inside the box.
"You said you are looking for someone? Is that person your uncle? His surname is Xu, and he is called Xu Xiaoshou?" Shiti confirmed again and again to the girl in front of him.
"Yes." Hua Shi nodded.
"So you are?"
"This cannot be said. My identity must be kept secret."
"Then you..." Shi Ti was silent for a moment. He was a little dizzy now. "Can you describe your uncle Xu, Xu Xiaoshou? What does he look like? His approximate age and characteristics?"
Ye Xiaotian was also aroused and looked at the girl.
"Age, characteristics..."
Hua Xi murmured, and the image of Master Bai Qian appeared in her mind.
"I don't know the specifics, but he must be middle-aged, right? A male... yes, he is a male! He should also be a super alchemist, and his combat power should also be good..."
"Yes!"
Hua Xie's eyes suddenly lit up as she described the master uncle in her imagination.
"My uncle, he should be very famous in the Eastern Heaven Realm."
"If you two know that there is a person named Xu Xiaoshou, then he must be my uncle. After all..."
"The unknown person cannot be my uncle!"
Upon hearing this, Shiti fell silent again.
Xu Xiaoshou, male...he is familiar!
But a middle-aged man with superb alchemy skills, good fighting prowess, and a reputation in the Eastern Heaven Realm...
This is somewhat contrary to the impression of Xu Xiaoshou!
Ye Xiaotian was listening on one side, and suddenly the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he interjected: "Have you never seen your uncle?"
"Uh... um." Hua Xi nodded and admitted.
"Where did you hear these adjectives? Or are they just your imagination?" Ye Xiaotian asked again.
"Part of it was told to me by my master, and the other part..." Hua Xie fell silent as she spoke.
She remembered.
It seems that Master Bai Zian didn't tell him much, just an uncle and a name.
Is the rest really all made up by your own imagination?
"you……"
Hua Yi looked at the white-haired Taoist boy and was surprised. This man knew quite a lot. Was he a roundworm?
Ye Xiaotian suddenly laughed: "What is your master's name?"
"Bai... uh, I can't say." Hua Shi stopped in time.
white?
Ye Xiaotian was thinking about this surname in his mind, but he couldn't remember any of his past acquaintances with the surname Bai.
But his thoughts suddenly settled, and his attention fell on the title of "Uncle Master" that this girl had always had, and he immediately came to his senses.
"Mu Lin, who are you?" Ye Xiaotian raised his eyebrows high.
"You!" Hua Shi heard this and jumped up from the sofa. Her face turned pale and her eyes were full of surprise, "You, you, you...who are you?!"
She obviously didn't reveal anything.
How did this white-haired dwarf know his master’s name?
Seeing the little girl's reaction, Ye Xiaotian knew what he was thinking.
He really didn't expect that the Holy God Continent was so small, and that he would meet an acquaintance from the past after just a trip to Dongtian King City...apprentice? disciple-grandson?
"Are you from the Holy Palace, from the Jinzhao lineage?" Ye Xiaotian said calmly.
However, Hua Xie's pupils shrank suddenly, and she was so shocked that she was speechless: "You, you, you...how, know, know?".
Shiti was also shocked at this time.
People from the Holy Palace...
"Messenger of the Holy Palace?"
Shiti reacted immediately.
Every time on the eve of trials in major royal cities on the mainland, envoys from the Holy Palace would patrol incognito in search of the best seedlings.
However, there are five regions in the mainland, and the Eastern Region alone has one hundred and eight realms, and the messengers from the Holy Palace are extremely rare.
Shiti never expected that this year, the messenger from the Holy Palace would come to Dongtian King City, and he would happen to bump into him.
He stood up quickly and said in a panic: "It turns out it's the envoy from the Holy Palace. I'm disrespectful..."
Saying that, Shi Ti wanted to bow.
But at this moment, Ye Xiaotian straightened his body. Although he was sitting, he floated slightly from the seat and pressed Shiti's shoulder with one hand.
"You're afraid you'll shorten her life."
Shi Ti looked back and wondered why Ye Xiaotian stopped himself from saluting.
This is the messenger of the Holy Palace!
The World Alchemist Association, even the headquarters of the association in the Central Region, is nominally under the control of the Holy Temple.
As for the Holy Palace, as the training ground for saints in the world, its status is on an equal footing with the Holy Temple.
If the opposite party is an envoy from the Holy Palace, then he, as the president of the branch of the Tiansang City Alchemist Association under the jurisdiction of Dongtianwang City in the East Territory, is an extremely humble person.
If you don't bow at this time, the Holy Palace will punish you later, and your teacher will definitely not be able to afford it!
"Just sit down."
Ye Xiaotian pushed Shiti back to his seat with one hand.
The two have completely different ideas and are not on the same channel at all.
What Ye Xiaotian was thinking about was that as a former friend of Mr. Sang, even though Shi Ti was only the president of a small branch at this time.
As long as the Holy Palace does not remove Sang Lao's name from Jinzhao's lineage.
In this world, there are very few so-called "messengers" no matter where they come from who need to be greeted with condescension.
What's more, the identity of the "messenger" of the girl in front of her is still open to question.
Outsiders don't know, but Ye Xiaotian knows.
There is no need for the messenger of the Holy Palace to be so secretive and mysterious, and even his own identity cannot be exposed casually.
And Jinzhao's lineage...
When will I be idle and bored and have time to take on the mission of this bullshit Holy Palace envoy?
Did Jinzhao Semi-Saint Dragon Rongzhi fall?
Or has Jinzhao's lineage been completely removed from the Holy Palace from within?
