The middle-aged voice fell, and a strong pressure fell on Xiao Muyang, making him groan and his face became extremely ugly.
A coldness flashed in Chu Qingli's eyes, and she stepped forward, with sharp sword intent blooming from her body. At this time, the middle-aged man glanced at her lightly and said: "You'd better stand there and don't move, otherwise he will
Must die."
After hearing this, Chu Qingli couldn't help but frowned, but she finally retreated. She didn't dare to risk Xiao Muyang's life, but if the other party really made a move, she would fight to the death.
"Answer my question, who are you?" The middle-aged man stared at Xiao Muyang, his expression no longer as gentle as before. This young man could actually guess that they were from Haotian Palace, and it seemed that it was not what it seemed.
Simple.
"If the senior is from the Haotian Palace, then I am on the same side as the senior. If he is the enemy of the Haotian Palace, then there is nothing to say." Xiao Muyang responded. Judging from the reaction of the middle-aged man, he felt
The former is more likely.
If he were an enemy of the Haotian Palace and learned that the Haotian Stone was on his body, his first reaction would be to think that he was from the Haotian Palace and would never show mercy.
Back then, those enemies secretly assassinated many people from the Haotian Palace.
After hearing Xiao Muyang's words, the middle-aged man's face softened a bit, his eyes showed some depth, and he continued to ask: "Who are you, and how did the Haotian Stone get into your hands?"
"Senior hasn't answered my question yet." Xiao Muyang replied. He had to confirm the other party's identity before he could tell the truth.
"You guessed it right, I am from the Haotian Palace." The middle-aged man said lightly, and Xiao Muyang couldn't help but reveal a hint of surprise in his eyes. It turns out that the Haotian Palace has not been completely destroyed, and decades have passed.
Still has such great power.
I'm afraid those enemies in Haotian Palace didn't know about this yet.
"Now, tell me your identity." The middle-aged man spoke again. He vaguely felt that the identity of the young man in front of him was not simple. He seemed to know many things. Moreover, the fact that he appeared in Qingyun City with the Haotian Stone seemed unusual in itself.
.
"The junior's name is Xiao Muyang. He is the successor chosen by Senior Haotian. He personally passed the Haotian Stone to me." Xiao Muyang replied respectfully.
When Xiao Muyang's words came out, a sharp gleam suddenly flashed in the middle-aged eyes, and he stared at Xiao Muyang. Is this young man the descendant of the previous palace master?
How can this be?
The previous palace master had already fallen, so how could he choose a young man as his successor?
Thinking that a thought flashed through the middle-aged man's mind, that this young man must be deceiving him, the pressure on him immediately increased a bit, and he asked again: "You'd better tell the truth, otherwise, I will kill you today!"
Xiao Muyang's face became a bit paler, he looked up at the middle-aged eyes, but his eyes were extremely firm, and said: "I am not deceiving you at all. After the death of Senior Haotian, his soul was placed in the Haotian Stone, and he returned to
His hometown, and I am a person from his hometown. By chance, I was recognized by Senior Haotian and gave me the Haotian Stone."
"Senior, if you don't believe it, you can go to Yaowang Valley. Senior Yaowang also knows my identity." Xiao Muyang added.
Hearing this, the middle-aged man showed a strange look. Does King Yao also know the identity of this child?
Seeing that Xiao Muyang's eyes were firm and his face was calm, and it didn't look like he was lying, the middle-aged man believed his words in his heart and restrained the pressure on him.
Xiao Muyang suddenly felt light all over and gasped for air. The feeling just now was too uncomfortable. The strong Tiangang man only needed to release a ray of pressure, and he had no power to resist. The gap in strength was too huge.
"So, you have met the former Palace Master with your own eyes?" the middle-aged man asked again, as if he wanted to get some news about Gu Haotian from Xiao Muyang.
"Well, not only did I see it with my own eyes, but I also had a conversation with him." Xiao Muyang said: "At that time, Senior Haotian passed the Haotian Stone to me and asked me to avenge him when I grow up."
"Didn't you say anything else?" The middle-aged man's eyes flickered and he asked.
"No more." Xiao Muyang shook his head. In fact, Senior Haotian also said something else, asking him to protect Haotian Palace in the future. If the people in power in Haotian Palace are mediocre and incompetent, he can replace them.
However, how could he dare to say this in front of the middle-aged man?
He, a junior with spiritual wheel level cultivation, protects a force that has many Tiangang level powerhouses? This is simply a huge joke.
"Very good." The middle-aged man nodded slightly, then looked at Xiao Muyang and said, "Since you are the descendant of the previous palace master, Haotian Palace should try its best to cultivate your cultivation, but first take out the Haotian Stone."
Xiao Muyang's expression suddenly changed and asked: "Why?"
"Do you still want to keep it on your body?" The middle-aged man frowned and said in a slightly cold tone: "With your cultivation level, you can't protect the Haotian Stone at all. Once its existence is discovered by the enemy, it will definitely be destroyed."
Taking it away will only cause greater trouble."
"But when Senior Haotian passed the Haotian Stone to me, he did not mention that it would be handed over to the people of Haotian Palace in the future." Xiao Muyang said solemnly, seeming a little unconvinced. He did not tell Gu Haotian's original words. Naturally,
They are afraid of irritating the other party and making things worse.
"It goes without saying, it should be done this way." The middle-aged man said calmly, with a strong tone in his calm tone, as if it was natural.
After all, the Haotian Stone belongs to the Haotian Palace.
Moreover, although this son was the successor chosen by the former Palace Master, he did not know what the situation was like at that time. It was also obvious that the former Palace Master chose him out of help. He could not hand over the Haotian Stone just because of his status as a successor.
Keep this for safekeeping.
What he can do now is to try his best to train this son and live up to the previous palace master's instructions, but the Haotian Stone must be taken back.
Xiao Muyang's eyes looked particularly solemn. He could naturally feel that the other party's attitude was very determined and he must get the Haotian Stone back. But with his current strength, if the other party wanted to take it away by force, he would have no power to resist.
What's more important is that the opponent is the legacy of Haotian Palace, so he is certainly qualified to take back the Haotian Stone.
"Now, there is only one way." Xiao Muyang whispered in his heart, and then he silently activated the secret technique, and saw an extremely bright light shining on the Haotian Stone. After a moment, an ancient aura filled the air from the Haotian Stone.
He came out and gradually turned into an old shadow, it was Shi Lao.
"What happened?" Shi Lao asked. He had been sleeping. Xiao Muyang summoned him. He must have encountered a very difficult problem.
"Old Shi, I met the legacy of Haotian Palace, and he wants to take away the Haotian Stone in my body." Xiao Muyang explained to Elder Shi.
"The legacy of Haotian Temple?" Mr. Shi looked shocked. In such a dangerous situation back then, was there anyone who survived?
Shi Lao's eyes were filled with contemplation, and then he said, "Don't worry, I'll talk to him and let him expel other irrelevant people."
"Okay." Xiao Muyang nodded and said to the middle-aged man in the sky: "Senior, please expel the irrelevant people in the inn. I have important things to talk to senior."
"Is it something important?" The middle-aged man glanced at Xiao Muyang with a deep look. Seeing that he didn't look like he was joking, he nodded: "I will do as you say."
The reason why the middle-aged man agreed to Xiao Muyang's request was because he was the descendant of Gu Haotian. He only satisfied him once for Gu Haotian's sake. If it were someone else in the spiritual wheel realm, he would not be qualified to negotiate terms with him.
.
"All irrelevant people in the inn are leaving at this moment. If anyone disobeys, you will be responsible for the consequences." The middle-aged man looked around at the crowd and said, his voice as loud as a bell, revealing a domineering tone.
"This..." The crowd looked at each other. Although they were extremely reluctant, thinking that the other party might have something important to talk about and not wanting to leak the secret, they had better stay away to avoid being implicated.
So the crowd left the inn one after another. The owner of the inn glanced at the middle-aged man above, with a look of displeasure on his face. This was his territory, so he asked him to leave too? It was too overbearing.
But the middle-aged man didn't even look at him, and obviously didn't care what he thought.
After careful consideration, the owner of the inn finally left. Naturally, he did not want to offend the people like Haotian Palace and tolerated the peace and quiet for a while.
But Gu Xing, Mu Feng and others did not leave. They stood beside Xiao Muyang, looking directly at the people in the sky without the slightest fear, as if they wanted to advance and retreat with Xiao Muyang.
"If you have something to say, you can tell me now." The middle-aged man looked at Xiao Muyang and said calmly. He wanted to hear what this man had to say.
"Old Shi, you can come out now." Xiao Muyang said in his heart.
After the words fell, an old figure emerged from Xiao Muyang's body. Mr. Shi looked at the figures in the sky, and finally his eyes fell on the middle-aged man in the middle. He said lightly: "You are the current person in charge of Haotian Palace.
?"
"I am the current master of Haotian Palace, who are you?" The middle-aged man stared at the figure of Shi Lao, and could faintly feel that the other party was extraordinary, and he might have a lot of origins.
"Master of the Haotian Palace?" Mr. Shi couldn't help showing a strange look, and asked: "Who are you from the previous master of the palace?"
"Sixth disciple." The middle-aged man responded.
When Mr. Shi heard this, he suddenly realized that his master had no children in his life and only accepted six disciples. Now the sixth disciple is the master of Haotian Palace. Presumably, the first five disciples all died in that battle that year.
However, this sixth disciple's talent is quite good. In just a few decades, he has reached the early stage of Heavenly Gang cultivation and is expected to enter the realm of celestial phenomena in the future.
"Lao Chan is the stone spirit of the Haotian Stone." Mr. Shi said to the middle-aged man.
After saying these words, a dazzling edge suddenly appeared in the middle-aged eyes, and the faces of the powerful men of Haotian Palace beside him also showed extremely shocked expressions, all looking at Mr. Shi.
This old man is actually the stone spirit of Haotian Stone?
