There were a few old guys who originally wanted to stay to curry favor with Zhou Xing, but they didn't dare to talk to him when they saw the gloomy expression on his face, so they wandered outside the hall for a while and then left in despair.
The last person to leave the palace was Zhou Xing, the priest who spoke last. He stood on the marble stairs outside the palace. At this time, he felt extremely unhappy. He thought of the cold expression Dugudong had just shown to him. , Zhou Xing's old face was first covered with a thick layer of cold air, and then a line of sinister smile flashed across it as fast as lightning, but it only took a short moment before it returned to the original state. Then he seemed to have thought of something and quickly went down the stone stairs. He waved hello, and a car pulled by four low-level horses and beasts appeared in front of him. Zhou Xing's thoughts moved, and with a flash of golden light, his body disappeared in an instant and entered the carriage. Then the servant on the horse carriage drove the carriage towards the west of the city like flying.
In the middle of a remote mountain forest in the west of the city, a majestic manor called Zuixuan Pavilion is like a long dragon hovering in it. The curved and wandering stone staircase looks like countless little snakes curling up continuously. Moreover, both sides of the stone staircase are covered with various exotic flowers and plants with colorful light. In addition, the altitude of the mountain itself is very high. It was so high that all the pavilions in the manor were shrouded in clouds and mist. The smoke and clouds are lingering, full of poetry and painting, like a living fairyland on earth, which makes people amazed and envious.
The horse and beast carriage that Zhou Xing was riding in stopped when it reached the gate of the manor at the bottom of the mountain. With the help of his servant, he slowly stepped out of the carriage. I saw two black lights bursting out from the inside of the door at the same time. When the light faded, there were two burly men in night clothes standing in front of the door. They are like two stone statues, their whole bodies are completely black, and the only thing that can be seen is their eyes with a dark and cold light. If they look directly at them, even those with advanced cultivation will shudder subconsciously. .
When Zhou Xing was about to step onto the stone stairs in front of the door, one of the men in black shouted with a cold and ruthless voice: "Who is coming in front of you? Don't you know that breaking into Zuixuan Pavilion without permission is a capital crime? If you know better, I'll be quick. Get back quickly, otherwise you will never come back today."
As the shouts fell, the black light that originally dimmed on the two men in black turned into clouds of black mist and rose up. Then the black mist seemed to be mixed with a black dragon, which was roaring vaguely. Exuding a strong killing intent, as long as the people in front of the stone stairs do anything bad, they will strike first and kill them here.
Zhou Xing felt very disdainful when he saw the two murderous guards, but after all, he was here to make a deal, or rather to make a request, and he couldn't make the relationship too tense now.
So he said politely to the two of them: "Two guardians, please don't misunderstand me. I am Zhou Xing, the Minister of Ceremony of Yanxue Kingdom. I am visiting today because I have important matters to meet with the Master of Xie Wutian Pavilion."
When they heard it was Zhou Xing, the two of them hesitated slightly. The man in black who just spoke once again said in a tentative tone: "It turns out to be Director Zhou! I, Zuixuan Pavilion, have never interacted with the royal family. I don't know what Director Zhou's visit is about." ? Can you tell me what you want to say? "After all, Zhou Xing can be regarded as a person in the Yanxue Kingdom who wants wind and rain. No matter how arrogant they are, they no longer have the domineering arrogance they had before.
Zhou Xing sneered in his heart when he saw the contrast between the two people who looked down upon others before and after hearing his identity as Falis. However, his face did not show any arrogance, so he said politely again: "Well... I'm really sorry, this matter is not trivial, I can only tell the evil master in person. I also ask the two guards to be accommodating. "
After saying that, Zhou Xing waved his right hand lightly, and the servant quickly took two square brocade boxes from the carriage and presented them in front of the man in black. He then narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "These are two pieces from the Yanxue Kingdom. The soul-protecting spar produced secretly by the royal family, I think the exercises practiced by the two guardians should belong to the soul method. Although the soul method is unpredictable, if there is no external object to nourish the soul for a long time, the soul of the practitioner will suffer. Backlash. Although this soul protection crystal is not of much use, it is a great tonic for the soul. It is used to its full potential when used on the two guardians.
The two people who originally dismissed Zhou Xing's gift felt overjoyed when they heard it was a soul-protecting crystal! They all stretched out their hands to take the brocade box, which seemed to weigh as much as a thousand pounds. You must know that they got the soul protection crystal in Zuixuan Pavilion, which was a life-or-death mission! Happiness came so suddenly that the two of them almost forgot about their own work in joy.
"Ahem!" Seeing that the two of them were so happy that they were completely carried away, Zhou Xing deliberately coughed a few times to bring them back from their daze.
"Hehe! We made Director Zhou laugh. It would be disrespectful for me to refuse such a great gift from Director Zhou! The master of the pavilion has been in seclusion for many years, but today is the day when he comes out of seclusion. At this moment, Xiang Bi is in the main cabinet. Please invite Director Sir, follow me." The man in black, who came to his senses first, swept away the gloom on his face, put on an expression of joy, and said respectfully.
The temptation of power and money is really so powerful that even good people can become bad and bad people can become perverse. Zhou Xing sighed secretly for no reason, and then felt very funny about his own thoughts. He raised his head and looked at the direction where the man in black disappeared, and then followed the man in black and flew deeper into the manor.
On the top of the mountain where the manor is located, a splendid and huge pavilion is the main building of Zuixuan Pavilion. On weekdays, all receptions with distinguished guests and meetings in the pavilion are held here.
Zhou Xing and the others flashed like a stream of light and arrived at the location of the main pavilion in an instant. Seeing that the main pavilion is magnificent and huge, its level of luxury is no less than that of the royal palace. On the contrary, Zhou Xing was secretly surprised, and it also made him more interested in Zuixuan Pavilion. A force that does not rely on any country's financial support has developed to such a powerful point, so it must have its own strength.
The two people stepped slowly and landed on the red carpet in front of the main pavilion door. At the same time, several black shadows flashed from the surrounding space and appeared in front of the two people.
Zhou Xing felt the auras emanating from several people. Except for an old man wearing a black Taoist robe of Bagua who was slightly stronger than him, the others were not afraid.
"Hei Ya, why didn't you guard the gate carefully? Why did you come to the main pavilion without permission? You even brought outsiders in privately. Do you think your life is too long?" A gloomy voice spread from the direction of the black shadow. Come on.
As soon as he heard this familiar voice, Hei Ya broke into a cold sweat on his face. This voice belongs to the great elder Zhang Xuan. Zhang Xuan can be said to be a murderous demon without blinking an eye. Nowadays, there are countless strong men in the entire martial arts world who have fallen at his hands. In addition, his temper is weird and unpredictable. In the entire Zuixuan Pavilion, everyone except the pavilion master is afraid of him. of. So Hei Ya immediately knelt on the ground, looked in the direction of Zhang Xuan, trembled and stammered in a cautious voice:
"Reporting to Protector Zhang, it's not that I deliberately left my post without permission, but that Director Zhou wanted to meet with my Pavilion Master. I was afraid of delaying important matters so I sent him there in person. I hope the Great Elder will learn from this!" He He was also afraid that he might accidentally anger this murderous and powerful maniac.
"Oh? Director Zhou? But Director Zhou of Yanxue Kingdom, who controls the country's etiquette and laws?" Zhang Xuan asked, turning her face sideways, squinting her eyes and looking at Zhou Xing in front of her gloomily.
"Replying to the Great Elder, it is the Director Zhou you mentioned." Hei Ya heard that Zhang Xuan didn't mean to be angry, so he quickly answered, but this time there was no stuttering, because it was blurted out.
"I wonder why your Excellency came to my Zuixuan Pavilion? Although our pavilion is in the Yanxue Kingdom, we have not had any contact with the royal family for so many years. If there is nothing important, it is best for you to leave quickly." Although Zhang Xuan He is a bloodthirsty maniac, but he can still observe the basic situation. If the royal family sent someone to visit in the past, they would politely entertain them and then send them away. But now it is the time when Ji Yun's empire is strong, and the master of the pavilion is also very jealous of Ji Yun. At this time, the royal family If you send someone here, you won't have good intentions. Therefore, this sentence also contains a threat and a sense of avoiding suspicion.
"Haha! The great elder wants to kick people out when he opens his mouth. It seems to be against the way of hospitality! I know the great elder wants to avoid suspicion, but how can the great elder be sure that I am here on behalf of the royal family today?" Zhou Xing Looking at Zhang Xuan's face, he said with a sarcastic laugh.
Zhang Xuan was a little angry after being told by Zhou Xing, and her dark face turned red. So he said again fiercely:
"Don't be shameless. I told you that the royal family is not welcome in Zuixuan Pavilion. If you don't leave on your own, don't blame me for not having the power of the baby soul in my hand."
After saying this, Zhang Xuan shouted loudly, and the originally clear surroundings suddenly became blurry, and black mist continued to gather in Zhang Xuan's direction from all directions of the main pavilion. Then Zhang Xuan waved his arms, and the black mist was sucked into his body along his Tianling Cap. As the black mist continued to enter, Zhang Xuan's face became more and more ferocious, and finally the old face instantly transformed into the face of a one or two year old baby. The baby's little face was filled with black energy, and he stared at Zhou Xing with a strange smile, which made people feel very creepy.
After seeing this, Zhou Xing sneered in his heart. It's just a small trick. Using the soul of the Nascent Soul to increase your strength, let's see how strong you can be. With a fighting spirit in his heart, Zhou Xing stopped talking. At this time, strength is the boss, otherwise everything would be fucking nonsense.
However, he did not rush to exercise his spiritual power. Instead, he took out a crystal with golden light from his arms, showed a strange smile on his face, nodded and whispered, and a golden light centered on the position where he stood quickly emitted to all directions. Spread out, countless golden light threads intertwined and coiled with each other, and finally merged into a dragon soul-like monster. It roared towards the black mist, and the golden light was filled with ripples of energy and rushed towards the black mist. , and saw the black mist fleeing in all directions as if encountering a natural enemy.
"Hahahaha, Elder Zhang, it seems that the power of your so-called Nascent Soul Soul can't resist my Dragon Soul Buddha Light." Zhou Xing watched the golden light drive the black mist to escape, and couldn't help laughing and sarcastically.
"Dragon Soul Buddha's Light? Is it the light emitted by the Dragon Soul Beast crystal? How is it possible? Didn't the Dragon Soul Beast fall in ancient times? How could you have it? This is absolutely impossible!" Zhang Xuan heard the dragon. The word "po" was like a thunderbolt from the blue. Mu, who couldn't believe it at all, froze on the spot and roared.
But this was only a short moment, because the next moment, Zhang Xuan really had murderous intentions. If the Dragon Soul Crystal really falls into his hands, it will undoubtedly be an extremely dangerous hidden danger for Zuixuan Pavilion, and as the Great Elder, he will not let this hidden danger continue to grow.
Zhang Xuan shouted loudly at the surroundings, and eight other elders and hundreds of powerful black figures instantly jumped out of the space and appeared on the platform in front of the main pavilion.
After the black figures paid homage to the great elder, they turned their eyes and stared at Zhou Xing, while at the same time they secretly channeled the power of their souls from their bodies. Among the elders, the fourth elder Kunpeng glanced at Zhou Xing with disdain, and then complained to Zhang Xuan: "Brother, you can't even handle such an ant! You actually called us brothers out ”
Listening to the fourth brother's words, Zhang Xuan's childish face was filled with a look of disgrace. He thought that Zhang Xuan had always been frightened by others in the martial arts world, but he didn't expect that he would fall on Zhou Xing today. But at this moment, he was really suffering and couldn't express it!
"Fourth brother, don't underestimate the enemy. This guy has a treasure. Otherwise, how could I be afraid of him?" Zhang Xuan did not blame Kunpeng for being unreasonable. On the contrary, she reminded him to pay attention to the person in front of him.
"What kind of treasure can even the elder brother be so afraid of?" The other seven elders who did not speak at this time had a trace of surprise on their faces, and they were all speculating in their hearts.
"It's the Dragon Soul Crystal"
"What? Dragon Soul Crystal?" Everyone blurted out in unison before Zhang Xuan finished speaking, and some even swallowed secretly.
The dragon soul crystal can be said to be the absolute nemesis for those who practice soul magic, because it contains extremely rich and pure golden light energy, which can instantly burn the soul to ashes. So for Zuixuan Pavilion, a place known for its soul power, Dragon Soul Crystal is their inner fear.
"That's not right. Didn't the Pavilion Master say that the Dragon Soul Beasts had been strangled to death by the Human Soul Clan in ancient times? How come there are still crystal stones appearing? Brother, are your words really true? Don't scare us for no reason!" The second elder, Zhao Yun, was frightened and had some sense, and questioned Zhang Xuan.
"Oh? Second brother, do you suspect that I am deliberately teasing you? Do you think I am a reckless person for such a major matter related to Zuixuan Pavilion?" Zhang Xuan was furious when she heard that her brothers questioned his words. Burning, the pale child's face seemed to have been streaked by a raging fire, and his face was red. Immediately afterwards, the child-sized face became more ferocious, and suddenly a bloody mouth opened, and two fiery red eyes stared at Zhou Xing's bloodthirsty way.
"Zhou Xing, Zhou Xing, I was kind enough to let you go for the sake of your master, but I didn't expect you to be so disrespectful. Now that you have the treasure to restrain me, Zuixuan Pavilion, I'm afraid the gate of Zuixuan Pavilion cannot be used. Let you step out again.
