The palace masters of the Secret Guard Nine Palaces actually didn’t know who the other was before.
Everyone is wearing a mask.
Just know the structure of the secret guard.
They also use unique tokens and communication language methods to communicate with each other.
This time it was unprecedented.
The sect leader summoned everyone for the first time.
Except for the absence of Palace Master Qiangong, everyone else is here.
Of course, the palace master of the middle palace has always been vacant, so the sect leader takes over the role concurrently.
They all stood silently in front of Lu Jing, all silent.
I was also feeling uneasy, wondering why the sect leader was suddenly anxious for everyone to be together today.
Something big must be happening.
Since the establishment of the Secret Guard, no real big event has happened.
The seven palace masters were all a little uneasy. Could it be that their own palace had done something wrong?
Just when the seven palace masters were secretly worried.
Lu Jing said, "Who can tell me how many people are on the ninth floor?"
This nonsense sentence made all the seven palace masters stunned.
Isn't this obvious?
Their seven palace masters, including the sect master, are eight people!
But since the sect master asked this, he must have a reason.
Soon everyone thought that the sect leader was testing them.
They are all secret guards, so they naturally know how hidden they are.
Those who can delay the escape from the nine hundred secret guards and take charge of the first palace are naturally outstanding in the way of hiding. It is not difficult for them to find the hidden person.
Immediately they stood there with their eyes closed and started searching.
But……
After a while.
Lu Jing closed his eyes and sat on the main seat, and asked calmly: "Who can tell me? You can't answer such a simple question?"
"thump……"
All the seven palace masters knelt down.
They were sweating from behind!
I just checked that there are eight people, and there is no ninth person.
It's impossible to hide them.
The palace master of the underground palace said bravely: "Go back to the ninth floor of the sect master and there will be a total of eight people including the sect master."
"Well...how many of you are there? How many people are there?"
Lu Jing asked calmly.
The rest of the people could only bite the bullet and reply at this time: "The sect leaders are... there are eight people."
Lu Jing opened his eyes: "Haha, are you sure there are eight people?"
The seven of them lowered their heads, not daring to look at Lu Jing.
At this time, the seven palace masters checked again, and there were still eight people. The ninth person could not be found at all, and no one was hiding on the ninth floor.
"Yes... there are eight people."
I could only answer through gritted teeth.
Lu Jing looked at the seven of them and suddenly said in a sharp tone: "It seems that you have been too busy during this time."
Just such a simple sentence made the seven palace masters put their heads on the ground.
My whole body was shaking.
The sect leader was very dissatisfied with them.
One was frightened.
I didn't dare to take a breath.
"The best techniques are given to you, and the sect's largest resources are given to you. How can you develop this ability through practice? If there was no ninth person, would I ask you some trash?"
Curses sounded in a leisurely tone.
Let the seven palace masters tremble.
The sect leader said that there is a ninth person.
this……
They checked several times but couldn't find it.
This is a bit scary.
As the palace masters of each palace, they are actually at the top of the entire Jinxia Sect in practicing hidden supernatural powers, techniques, etc. As palace masters, their cultivation realms are all at the realm of transformation into gods.
Who can escape them?
The seven palace masters were cursed, and while they were feeling anxious, they were also full of curiosity.
Lu Jing actually wanted to pave the way for Qin He and give these palace masters a try. After all, Qin He wanted to be the palace master of the middle palace, and from now on he would be the immediate boss of the other eight palaces.
To be able to stand out from the nine hundred secret guards and take charge of a palace, there is no doubt that every palace owner has their own advantages, and in turn, they are all arrogant people.
If someone with no special characteristics is found to be the lord of the middle palace, they will inevitably be dissatisfied.
Let them look for the ninth person. When they can't find him, let Qin He come out and slap them in the face. This will naturally suppress their arrogance, and they will be able to better obey Qin He's instructions and work seriously in the future.
"This subordinate is incompetent, please punish me, the sect leader."
Seven people quickly confessed.
No one was dissatisfied when being cursed by the sect leader.
Lu Jing snorted coldly and said, "Get up."
The seven people stood up tremblingly and stood aside in an orderly manner.
At this time, Lu Jing was heard saying: "Looking at it with big eyes."
After speaking, Lu Jing also stood up, looked at the screen and said, "Come out."
The seven palace masters stared at the screen with wide eyes.
In fact, they still didn't believe it in their hearts. They searched behind the screen many times, but no one was there.
but……
Then a dark figure slowly walked out from behind the screen.
Bow slightly to Lu Jing.
The seven palace masters' eyes widened.
There really is someone!
Looking at this person again, the pupils of the Seven Palace Masters shrank for a while.
Good guy, judging by her figure, she should be a woman.
Of course this is not the point.
The key point is that she is wearing a secret guard uniform with a Chinese character written on the collar.
Everyone knows what this means.
The costumes of all the secret guards of the Nine Palaces are exactly the same. The only difference is that only those who are the masters of the major palaces will have a word representing the first palace on their collars.
The woman in black who walked out from behind the screen wore a mask like them, so no one knew who she was.
But the Chinese character on the collar means that she is the palace lord of the middle palace.
As for the position of Palace Master of the Secret Guard Palace, it has been vacant since the founding of the Secret Guard, and the sect leader Lu Jing holds the concurrent position.
All the major palace masters also know that the middle palace governs the other eight palaces and is the real central leader of the nine palaces' secret guards.
I also thought this was their immediate boss.
Everyone has also speculated whether there will be a palace lord in the middle palace?
In other words, the Palace Master of the Middle Palace has long existed, but was sent out to perform tasks by the sect master. He has even been hiding among the secret guards to monitor them...
There have been any speculations.
I just never thought that we would meet in this way.
"Sit on."
Lu Jing said to Qin He and motioned for him to sit on the main seat.
Qin He also understood at this time that Lu Jing's painstaking efforts were to help her secure her position as the palace lord of the middle palace and to support her in front of these palace lords.
He was not polite and sat on the main seat.
"What are you still doing? She is the Palace Mistress of the Middle Palace. She will control the secret guards of the Nine Palaces from now on. Your immediate boss has been away on missions. He came back today and asked you to meet him. From now on, he will assist you and ensure the operation of the Nine Palaces.
, I will pluck out the skin of anyone who dares to drop the chain." Lu Jing scolded.
The seven palace masters seemed to have woken up from a dream, and they all bowed and said: "I have met with the master of the palace, and I will definitely assist the middle palace in the future, protect our Jinxia Sect, and share the worries of the sect master."
Qin He suppressed the excitement and nervousness in his heart, pretending to be serious and serious: "First of all, let me correct you, my Nine Palace secret guards are the guards of the Lord. In the future, when all the secret guards see the sect master calling him the Lord, don't forget it.
Next time, I will be severely punished."
The seven palace masters trembled all over: "This subordinate deserves to die, and I will definitely remember this."
