Luo Wenzhou slowly said to Ye Ling: "It is said that there was a sage who was born in the tomb. All the sects sent people there one after another, and strong men among the casual cultivators also showed up. Among them was this thief. It's just that the two of them were in the tomb. He was injured, so he was captured by the people of Huixianzhuang. The physical skills of these two people are rarely seen in the world. Except for the unparalleled Bujia of Beiyu and the Xiaoyaoyou of Dongfang Haige, there is no one else. Therefore, various forces are coveting each other. In the past few years, many people have died overtly or covertly in order to seize gods and ghosts. Huixianzhuang probably took the trouble and simply organized such a conference to punish evil and called them all to come to the stage to fight for it. , it’s better than him having to worry about Huixianzhuang.”
Jiang Fan asked: "But in this case, what are the benefits of Huixian Village?"
"Huixianzhuang naturally has conditions for doing this," Luo Wenzhou said: "No matter which party obtains the right to deal with the evil thief and ghost thief, the skill must be shared with Huixianzhuang."
"This is a good plan."
Ye Ling asked again: "How were his two apprentices captured?"
Luo Wenzhou frowned and said, "I don't know about that. I guess he came to save his master and accidentally fell into it!"
Hearing this, Ye Ling felt that it made sense: "I just don't know where they are being held."
"Oh?" Luo Wenzhou asked with a smile: "Does Taoist Ye also have an interest in this magical thief's movement technique?"
Ye Ling shook his head and said, "No, I have met the apprentices of the Thief and Ghost Thief a few times, and we are considered acquaintances. So when I heard that they were caught, I thought of coming to see them off."
“I see,” Luo Wenzhou nodded and said, “But in order to ensure that they are not snatched away by anyone with intentions, Huixian Village should be kept very secret and not easily found.”
Ye Ling knew the truth, but he still had to do his best.
While he was talking, a young man in black suddenly floated over, his ice aura freezing the void, causing the people next to him to take a few steps back. He stood in front of Ye Ling, stretched out his hand and said, "Do you have any wine?"
Who else but Xu Mochen could ask Ye Ling for a drink so directly? Ye Ling smiled and took out a jar of wine from the storage ring and threw it to Xu Mochen: "This jar is ten years old." , the flavor is stronger.”
Xuguchen patted open the mud, and the aroma of wine overflowed. He raised his head and drank a few sips, then left without looking back.
Ye Lingzheng smiled helplessly, and someone next to him snorted: "Ye Ling, how did you get into Huixian Village?"
Ye Ling looked around and saw a few Wentian Sect disciples standing over there. They were familiar faces, Lan Gongyue, Meng Peiran, Chu Fanyang, Han Qianqing, and Su Yishan. He is the leader among the sixteen generations of disciples of Wentian Sect.
Han Qian has a youthful appearance and is full of energy; Su Yishan has a strong physique and a profound Taoist charm. The two of them had no grudge against Ye Ling and rarely communicated with each other. They just bowed their hands as a greeting.
When Lan Gongyue saw that Ye Ling didn't answer, she said coldly: "Did you steal someone else's invitation and sneak into Huixian Manor?"
As soon as he said this, everyone around him cast doubtful glances. Ye Ling smiled slightly and asked instead, "According to the sect's rules, what should you do when you meet the Peak Master?"
As soon as he said this, Chu Fanyang bowed his hands without hesitation: "Greetings to Master Taixu Peak."
Although Han Qianqing and Su Yishan had already greeted each other, they still bowed and saluted. Only Lan Gongyue looked at Meng Peiran with a cold face.
Meng Peiran had no expression on his face, turned around and left without saying a word. When Lan Gongyue saw it, she also left. Chu Fanyang hesitated again and again, so he had no choice but to follow behind Lan Gongyue. Han Qianqing and Su Yishan smiled and came forward to say hello. Ye Ling introduced them to Luo Wenzhou and Jiang Fan and asked, "Why don't you see thunder?"
Han Qianqing said: "Senior brother Lei Ming has been in seclusion. At this conference, I asked the Tianzong to come to the sect master and the three peak masters of Red Fire Peak, Yuanshui Peak, and Zidian Peak, as well as the leaders of our sixteenth and fifteenth generations. disciple."
Ye Ling was not surprised when he heard this. It is said that at this conference, famous and powerful sects from the Five Realms will be present and bring their own disciples, firstly to observe the differences between each other, and also for the purpose of comparison.
While he was talking, several disciples from Huixianzhuang suddenly came out of the air and looked around, not knowing what they were looking for. Suddenly someone pointed at Ye Ling and Jiang Fan and said, "It's those two!"
As soon as he finished speaking, several disciples surrounded them and said to Ye Ling and Jiang Fan, "Which sect are you disciples from?"
Ye Ling didn't answer because he was afraid that the invitation would be leaked and cause trouble for Wentianzong, so he didn't tell the truth. Han Qianqing and Su Yishan were all silent, watching the development of the situation. Only Luo Wenzhou cupped his hands and said, "What's the matter?"
The disciple of Nahuixian Village said: "An outsider broke into the village, and we are investigating."
"In that case, you should go to a hidden place to find someone who would be upright among this crowd. Wouldn't it be too courageous?" Luo Wenzhou said with a smile, but the hand behind his back waved to Ye Ling. He seemed to have guessed that Ye Ling Ling didn't come in through the sect's invitation, so I was helping him buy time.
As soon as these words came out, the disciples of Huixianzhuang looked embarrassed, but then they heard someone shouting from behind: "It's the two of them who came in with the fat Taoist priest, don't let them go!"
"not good!"
Ye Ling was shocked. It seemed that Wu Liang had done something to expose his identity and implicate them.
Before the disciple could react, Ye Ling stepped on Xuantian's afterimage and pulled Jiang Fan into the room. Xu Nuo was meditating in the room. He was suddenly startled. He opened his eyes and said, "Master..."
Before he finished speaking, Ye Ling pulled Xu Nuo up and carried him on his back. He led Jiang Fan to open the window, found a direction and escaped.
"Stop! Don't let them escape!"
"Stop them and arrest them!"
Ye Ling and the others quickly ran away along a long corridor, with a dozen Huixianzhuang disciples chasing behind them. Facing them were two more people forming seals with their hands, and a Bagua barrier appeared in front of the three of them.
"Break it for me!"
Jiang Fan shouted, took out a medicine hoe with his backhand, hit the barrier, and smashed it into pieces. Then, Ye Ling's power shook, and a wave of air arose, knocking away the two disciples and continuing to run away.
"How are you doing?" The disciples chasing after them quickly asked about their situation.
They clutched their chests and said, "They fled that way."
"Hurry up and chase them, don't let them go!"
So, a dozen or so people continued to catch up in the air, but their movements were too slow, and they fell further and further away from Ye Ling, gradually losing sight of their figures.
The leading disciple secretly gritted his teeth and said: "Go and notify Elder Zhou quickly and ask him to send more people."
"yes!"
But he said that Elder Zhou's name was Zhou Xin, and he was responsible for the reception of this evil punishment conference. Who would have thought that a fat Taoist priest somehow managed to sneak in, smashed a treasure house in Huixian Manor, and killed two guarding disciples. This made the manor owner furious and ordered him to arrest the person as soon as possible.
Nuo Dazhuangzi, he has no right to recruit people, how can he find people. While he was worrying, a disciple came and said: "Elder Zhou, we found a few people who entered the village with the fat Taoist priest, but they escaped. Senior brother asked the elder to send more people to arrest them."
"Where can I find anyone here?" Zhou Xin complained angrily, but things still needed to be done, so he said, "Take me there immediately!"
As they spoke, the two people hurried over and saw that the disciple who was leading the pursuit of Ye Ling just now was ordering his men to disperse and search for him.
Zhou Xin stepped forward and asked: "How is the matter going? Did you find anyone?"
Seeing that it was Zhou Xin, the disciple hurriedly saluted and said: "Elder, we found the Taoist priest's accomplices, but their movements were weird and made them escape. I have sent my brothers to search everywhere, but we are short of manpower. I'm afraid we will have to flee." Take your time.”
Zhou Xin frowned and said: "All the people here have dispersed, and there is no extra manpower at all."
The disciple said anxiously: "What should we do? If we don't catch them as soon as possible, something else might happen."
This is what Zhou Xin is worried about. Now that all the prestigious sects in the world are in the village, if a few street rats disturb the peace, wouldn't it mean that Huixian Village becomes the laughing stock of the monks in the world? This matter must be resolved, but also It cannot be publicized and known to outsiders.
Thinking of this, Zhou Xin frowned and said, "In that case, I'll go find the guard elders to discuss it! You continue to lead people to search here, but don't make too much of a fuss and make it known to outsiders."
"Yes, please don't worry, elder!"
With that said, Zhou Xin walked away in the air, passed several courtyards, and landed in front of a jade palace. He saw that the guards here all had jade armor on their bodies and looked majestic.
A child came forward and saluted: "What's wrong with Elder Zhou?"
"Is your master, Elder Chen, here?"
The boy said: "Master has gone to meet friends at Qingliang Pavilion with the young owner of the village. If Elder Zhou has something to do, he can go to Qingliang Pavilion to find his master."
"Thank you!"
Zhou Xin hurriedly turned around and flew away, and saw a beautiful mountain forest in the northeast, with tall green trees and murmuring clear water. In a small pavilion by the water, several people were gathering together to drink and have fun.
In the middle is a person wearing a red robe, gold, silver, and jewels. It is Sun Shaozu, the young master of Huixian Village. One of the two people next to him was holding a folding fan with a graceful demeanor, but it was Duan Hanzhang from Yuxuan Palace, and the other was Lang Qiran. Directly across from him sat a young man in yellow clothes, with half a bun of long hair, and a hint of evil charm in the corner of his mouth, but he seemed to be protected by divine light, and was holy and unparalleled.
There is also a young-looking person wearing a purple Taoist uniform on the side. It is the guardian elder Chen Bingjia. His cultivation has reached the realm of immortality. He guards the Guard Hall and is responsible for the guarding of Huixian Village.
According to outside rumors, Chen Bingjia was still relatively young, and he was able to obtain such a high position precisely because he had an irreconcilable relationship with Sun Shaozu, and he often did what he wanted, and captured female monks for Sun Shaozu's amusement, so he was highly used.
Zhou Xin straightened his clothes and cautiously stepped forward to greet him: "Young Master, Zhou Xin is polite."
Sun Shaozu was very drunk. He turned around and saw Zhou Xin and said, "If you don't want to be a guest, what are you doing here?"
Zhou Xin said: "My subordinates have something to discuss with Elder Chen. I don't know..."
Chen Bingjia frowned and asked, "But what happened?"
"What could happen?" Sun Shaozu said impatiently: "Who in the world dares to cause trouble in my Huixian Village? It's all because of your idiots' inability to do things well. I should ask my father to drive you all out. Get out of here and don't disturb me. My elegance!"
Zhou Xin was covered in cold sweat, but he didn't dare to say a word. Duan Hanzhang on the side smiled and said: "Now that all the sects in the world are gathering together, it is a time of chaos. Elder Chen is going to do his own business. A few of us will accompany Shaozu to ensure that everything is safe and sound."
Lang Qiran also said: "The young master of the village is drunk. I think what he just said was just drunk talk. How could he ignore the important affairs of the sect and just ask Elder Chen to drink and have fun here?"
Chen Bingjia looked at Sun Shaozu, who waved his hand and said, "Since Mr. Duan and Lang Qiran have said so, can I still stop you? Go back quickly, don't disturb our interest for trivial matters."
Chen Bingjia quickly raised his hands and said, "Thank you, Mr. Duan. Young Master, please wait a moment. I'll be right back!"
As he spoke, Chen Bingjia ignored the half-asleep Sun Shaozu, quickly got up and left with Zhou Xin, and asked, "What happened?"
Zhou Xin quickly told Chen Bingjia everything that happened. After hearing this, Chen Bingjia frowned and said, "Don't make this matter public. I will go back immediately to mobilize the disciples of the Guard Hall to look for it. These other people seem to be cultivators." To be honest, ordinary disciples may not be my opponents, so I will find a few elders to help, and we must catch these little mice before the conference starts!"
"That's very good. This matter depends entirely on Elder Chen!"
