Looking at the woman standing next to him, Cheng Hou almost shed tears of excitement.
No matter who is pulled away from despair and is about to die, it will be difficult for him to calm down.
"I've been here a long time ago." The fifth elder, who was similar in stature to Cheng Hou, said calmly.
"Well……"
Cheng Hou was stunned for a moment. He had something to say, but he didn't dare to ask directly.
"I really doubt whether you are really a disciple of the Wu Kong Sword Sect." The fifth elder of the Guiyuan Sect, whose appearance could only be considered average, said to the old man with a cold look on his face.
"snort!"
The old man stared at Cheng Hou, then turned around and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Fifth Elder, how could you let him go?" Cheng Hou pointed in the direction the old man left and asked in confusion.
"What? Do you want me to fight a monk from the Wu Kong Sword Sect?" The fifth elder glanced at Cheng Hou and asked in displeasure.
"No, no, hehe." Cheng Hou finally came to his senses and hurriedly waved his hand and said.
Although the fifth elder is in the middle stage of Kongling, he is stronger than the old man of Wu Kong Sword Sect, so he can sweep away the old man's sword light with his momentum, but the old man is a sword cultivator after all. If he fights for his life, even if
If the fifth elder can win, I'm afraid it will be a miserable victory.
This is not a blessed place, and the monks will not risk their lives easily, lest they leave opportunities for others to take advantage of.
Seeing that the nearby monks were gradually surrounding them, the fifth elder frowned slightly, withdrew all his momentum, and flew away with Chenghou through the air, and soon disappeared without a trace.
Near Tianhe, the monks in the middle stage of Kongling should be the most powerful existence. After all, the monks in the late stage of Kongling are already at the level of masters in the Fantasy Moon Realm, and they will not come here to waste time fishing for ascendants. As for the monks in the phaseless god realm,
That person is already the top being in the Fantasy Moon Realm, and he will not come to the Tianhe River unless he wants to cross the Tianhe River to other divine continents.
With masters like the Fifth Elder here, the ascended one must be from the Guiyuan Sect, and Marquis Cheng is absolutely safe.
However, along the way, Cheng Hou always seemed to be hesitant to speak, as if he had something to say but did not dare to say it.
"You want to ask me why I didn't take action until the end, right?" The fifth elder turned to the side, looked at Cheng Hou, and asked.
"Disciple doesn't dare." Cheng Hou quickly replied in fear.
"I just want to see if you will agree to his conditions. Your performance is good. I seemed to have misjudged you before." The fifth elder said calmly.
Cheng Hou couldn't help but break out in cold sweat on his forehead at this time. If he had agreed just now, I'm afraid he would have been mercilessly killed by the fifth elder as soon as the words came out of his mouth, right?
Fortunately, fortunately, fortunately, he didn't agree just now. Cheng Hou secretly rejoiced and his expression became more relaxed, but then he cursed the fifth elder in his heart for being too weird.
If Guiyuan Sect had not been kind to him, and he was a person who knew how to repay his kindness, in the situation just now, someone else would definitely agree to the old man's request. After all, he didn't know that the fifth elder was right next to him.
The fifth elder's realm was one level higher than that of the old man. He was hidden nearby and would not be discovered by the old man. Who made the old man focus on Cheng Hou?
At that moment, the fifth elder asked about Hou Cheng's cultivation situation and gave him some advice. It was obvious that his attitude was much better than before. In the past, the fifth elder disliked Cheng Hou very much because the disciples below said that Cheng Hou was cunning and cunning.
He only flatters and has no real ability. But today the fifth elders know that Marquis Cheng is loyal to the Guiyuan Sect, and I am afraid that few people can match it.
Soon the fifth elder arrived at Guiyuan Sect's station near Tianhe, which was a small courtyard in a small town.
This small town is very prosperous, and monks from countless sects who come to salvage the ascended ones will find a house here as their residence.
Of course, fighting is strictly prohibited in this small town, otherwise you will be surrounded and killed by the monks in the city.
The Guiyuan Sect is not a sect with a big business, so the courtyard is a bit remote, but it is quiet. At this time, there is only one Guiyuan Sect disciple left in the courtyard. She is a girl, called Cailing, who is the fifth elder's favorite.
disciple.
After coming out this time, the fifth elder was worried that the newly adopted disciple would stay in the sect, so he brought her out with him.
"Master, you are back! Huh? Why is Senior Brother Cheng back too?" Cailing looked like she was only thirteen or fourteen years old. She had fair skin and a bright red mouth. She looked very cute and well-behaved. When she saw the master coming back, she greeted her
Come up.
"Haha, let's go into the secret room and talk." The fifth elder smiled warmly and led Cailing and Cheng Hou into a secret room.
The secret room was empty, with nothing in it. The fifth elder waved his robe sleeves lightly, revealing a large jade bed.
This big bed is not used by the fifth elder to sleep, but for meditation. Since the Guiyuan Sect has not caught an ascended person for who knows how many years, the fifth elder did not make any preparations before coming, so he could only use his own
bed.
"Put the ascended one here." The fifth elder pointed to the big bed and said to Cheng Hou.
Chenghou followed his words and moved the ascended one out of the divine palace and put away his big net.
The ascended person, whose body was still wrapped in the colorful rays of light, quietly closed his eyes and lay on the big jade bed, motionless.
Due to the obstruction of the glow all over their bodies, the three monks from Guiyuan Sect could only vaguely see the appearance of the ascended person, but they could not use their spiritual consciousness to check the situation of the ascended person.
"Why do you look so young?" Cailing said strangely.
"Even though he looks young, he might have been practicing for longer than me." Cheng Hou said to him.
"Then how long have you been practicing?" Cailing has just started, so naturally she is not familiar with Cheng Hou.
"It's almost half a million years." Cheng Hou thought for a while and replied.
"It is true that the age of a monk cannot be judged by his appearance. As far as I know, most of the resources in the lower world are not rich. From the beginning of cultivation to the time when monks ascend to the divine realm, a few of them have to go through hundreds of thousands of years of cultivation, and some even need hundreds of years.
More than 10,000 years. However, monks have no other abilities and can still stay young forever. The child-looking monk you see may be an old monster who has lived for countless years." The fifth elder continued.
"Then what should he do?" Cailing asked, pointing to the ascended person on the bed.
"Let's leave it here for now. It will take some time for him to wake up." After the fifth elder thought for a while, he said to the two juniors: "You two stay here to take care of him. If he wakes up, notify me immediately."
Then the fifth elder left. After all, she was in charge of the overall situation here. There were many people to be busy with, and other disciples also needed her support.
Cheng Hou stayed in the secret room with Cailing, staring at the ascended person on the bed, his eyes unblinking, as if he wanted to see through it, as if he wanted to figure out why all sects were flocking to the ascended person.
