Taking Gu Lingyao to the teleportation array, when they saw Xiao Chen approaching, several Tianfeng Holy Sect disciples who were responsible for guarding the teleportation array hurried up to greet him, and then saluted respectfully.
"See senior brother."
These disciples did not know Xiao Chen's name, but wearing Tianfeng robes already showed that Xiao Chen was a direct disciple. There was no doubt that someone would pretend to be a direct disciple, because this was a capital crime.
He bowed to Xiao Chen respectfully and shouted. Seeing this, Xiao Chen smiled slightly and said, "We are going to the Southern Border City. We are busy."
"Brother, you're welcome. Please wait a moment. I'll activate the teleportation array soon." After hearing this, one of the disciples replied respectfully.
Soon, the teleportation array leading to Southern City was opened for Xiao Chen. As a beam of light rose into the sky, Xiao Chen and Gu Lingyao also disappeared into the teleportation array.
In just the blink of an eye, Xiao Chen and the two of them arrived at the Southern City from Tianfeng Mansion City.
Walking out of the teleportation array, there were already disciples of the Tianfeng Holy Sect waiting here, with the same extremely respectful attitude. They personally took Xiao Chen and the two of them into the carriage and headed towards the Southern Realm City Lord's Mansion.
This Southern City is a city directly under the jurisdiction of the Tianfeng Holy Sect. The city lord is naturally a member of the Tianfeng Holy Sect. At the same time, the people who manage the Southern City are also disciples of the Tianfeng Holy Sect.
Within the Tianfeng Holy Sect, ordinary disciples will rotate to different places to guard every year, usually several cities under the direct jurisdiction of the Tianfeng Holy Sect.
As the largest city in the south of Tianfeng Mansion, Nanjing City is also extremely prosperous, but it is naturally inferior to Tianfeng Mansion City.
Regardless of its prosperity or size, it is not as good as the Tianfeng Holy Sect.
All the way to the City Lord's Mansion of Southern City, Xiao Chen met the City Lord of Southern City, who was also an elder of the Tianfeng Holy Sect. This elder guarded Southern City all year round and had a semi-saint cultivation level.
In the lobby of the City Lord's Mansion, Xiao Chen and Gu Lingyao bowed to the City Lord and said, "Disciple Xiao Chen, pay your respects to Elder Nangong."
This middle-aged, gentle-looking elder was named Nangong Yi. Facing the salutes of Xiao Chen and Gu Lingyao, Nangong Yi personally helped Xiao Chen up and said with a smile on his face.
"Nephew Xiao Chen is too polite. I have also heard about you. Yes, it is true that a hero comes from a young age. With you, we finally have all the top ten direct disciples of our Holy Sect."
His attitude towards Xiao Chen is very kind, which is normal. After all, although Nangong Yi is an elder of the Holy Sect, he is an elder who has been exposed to outsiders. In fact, there is not much difference in identity between Nangong Yi and a direct disciple like Xiao Chen. It can even be said that
When it comes to the importance of the Holy Sect, Xiao Chen may be more important than Nangong Yi.
Therefore, in the face of direct disciples, elders like Nangong Yi who are outsiders will treat them as equals and will not put on any airs.
He personally greeted Xiao Chen and the two of them to sit down, and then ordered someone to serve tea. After a few simple words of courtesy, Xiao Chen went straight to the topic, looked at Nangong Yi and asked.
"Disciple, dare I ask Elder Nangong, is Nangong Yan, who was captured by the Qingma Gang this time, a member of the Nangong family?"
Xiao Chen actually asked knowingly, because Nangong Yan's identity was already explained in detail in the records about this mission.
She is indeed from the Nangong family, and she is also the daughter of the current head of the Nangong family, Nangong Feihong, the eldest brother Nangong Yi.
And the Nangong family is one of the two top families in Tianfeng Mansion and the largest family in the south, so Nangong Yan's status is very high. Of course, if it weren't for this, He Feng would not have hired Xiao Chen to carry out this task.
Think about it, if the person who was kidnapped was not Nangong Yan, then the matter could have been solved by just shooting a few core disciples, or directly dispatching a Holy Sect deacon, but He Feng sent Xiao Chen out.
, To put it bluntly, this is actually a signal to the Nangong family, that is, the Holy Sect attaches great importance to Nangong Yan's matter, so it does not hesitate to send its direct disciples to complete this task in person.
You must know that the status of a direct disciple is far more complicated than that of a deacon of the Holy Sect. In some respects, even an elder of the Holy Sect is not as good as a direct disciple.
It was obvious that both the Nangong family and Nangong Yi were very satisfied with the signal sent by the Holy Sect. The presence of a direct disciple in person was enough to prove that the Holy Sect valued it.
Facing Xiao Chen's inquiry, Nangong Yi nodded and replied, "Yan'er is indeed a member of my Nangong family and my niece. She was kidnapped by the Qingma Gang this time. To be honest, it broke my eldest brother's heart.
, but unfortunately, the Green Horse Gang is very cunning, and has been hiding in the border area between Tianfeng Mansion and Tianyue Mansion. Whenever there is any disturbance, the Green Horse Gang will run directly into the territory of Tianyue Mansion. In this regard, our Nangong family
It’s also quite a headache.”
As the largest clan in the Tianfeng Mansion, the Nangong family naturally believes that the Nangong family can easily crush the Qingma Gang in terms of strength, but the difficulty lies here. The Qingma Gang simply cannot
He does not have any direct contact with the Nangong family and the Tianfeng Holy Sect.
Moreover, a full seven days have passed since Nangong Yan and the more than ten disciples of the Tianfeng Holy Sect were kidnapped, but the Qingma Gang did not make any demands. Without demands, the Nangong family was naturally unable to take the next step.
It is indeed strange to kidnap someone without making any demands. At the same time, the Fengyue Mountains where the Qingma Gang hides all year round is the border between Tianfeng Mansion and Tianyue Mansion.
As the junction of the two palaces, this place naturally formed a lawless place. Tianfeng Mansion and Tianyue Mansion did not have strong management of this place. In addition, warriors from the two mansions existed here at the same time. Over time, this place was almost
It became a city of evil mixed with fish and dragons.
Xiao Chen actually has a pretty good grasp of the situation of this mission. The reason why Xiao Chen came to Nanjing City to meet Nangong Yi was because he hoped to get help from the Nangong family.
After all, the Nangong family is the largest family in the south. In terms of strength, it is not inferior to the three major sects of the Iron Sword Sect. Moreover, the Nangong family has been operating in the south of Tianfeng Mansion for so many years, and the information network they have built is naturally extremely huge. I think
To find out the whereabouts of the Qingma Gang as soon as possible, it is really difficult to rely on Xiao Chen and Gu Lingyao alone, so it is best to rely on the Nangong family's intelligence network.
As if he had guessed what Xiao Chen was thinking, before Xiao Chen could say anything, Nangong Yi had already taken the lead.
"Nephew Xiao Chen, to tell you the truth, if you want to use my Nangong family's information network, I'm afraid you will be disappointed."
"Oh, what did Elder Nangong say?" Xiao Chen asked in confusion after hearing Nangong Yi's words.
"Oh, I'm ashamed to say it..." Xiao Chen really wanted to use the Nangong family's information network, but Nangong Yi also had trouble saying it. He sighed lightly, and then without any concealment, told the actual situation
He told Xiao Chen the truth about the situation.
