"Yes."
Zhang Xiaozu stared at the paper in his hand, not daring to look at Yan Mingchao, because his unkind invitation was a bit too much and he was afraid of being scolded by Yan Mingchao.
Yan Mingchao did not immediately report to Linlang Pavilion to suppress the Hongyun Dan Pavilion, which already gave him a lot of face. He went even further and asked Yan Mingchao to help him teach and train alchemists. But you must know that once the Hongyun Dan Pavilion grows, it will inevitably collide with Linlang Pavilion. , which means that he is asking Yan Mingchao to cultivate enemies for Linlang Pavilion, which is a bit embarrassing.
He really had no other choice, otherwise he wouldn't be able to say this even if he were beaten to death.
Yan Mingchao shook his head and said, "I can't help you as a teacher."
"Oh" Zhang Xiaozu responded awkwardly.
He had expected this answer, so he couldn't say he was disappointed.
"But -" Yan Mingchao suddenly changed his tone, "I have a friend in the world who may be able to help you with this."
Zhang Xiaozu was overjoyed and hurriedly took out a thunder shark bead and handed it to Yan Mingchao and asked, "I wonder if this bead is enough as a reward?"
"Well, that's enough."
Yan Mingchao nodded and accepted the beads. 33
Three days later, Zhang Xiaozu walked out of Yan Mingchao's thatched house with an alchemy book of hundreds of thousands of words in his mind.
"Boy, come ahead, someone is looking for you."
As soon as he walked out of the thatched hut, Daozu's voice rang in Zhang Xiaozu's ears.
Zhang Xiaozu immediately flew to Wuliang Mountain, and looked over in a subtle state of mind, curious about who was looking for him. In the living room of the side hall of Lingguan Palace, he saw a woman with delicate features and delicate eyes, sitting there solemnly.
"Qi Jinyao, why did she come to me?"
Zhang Xiaozu recognized this woman and couldn't help frowning, feeling confused.
At present, the relationship between him and the Qi family is on the same level. I am afraid that everyone in the Qi family wants to eat him alive. Qi Jinyao coming to him at this time will inevitably make him suspicious.
Although the Qi Jinyao in his impression is kind and innocent, and should not be harmful to others, times have changed, and people's hearts are the most fickle. Furthermore, Qi Jinyao may be harmless, but the Qi family behind her is not a kind person. .
Just like the last time Qinglong and the Blackpool Holy Beast were in trouble, although Qi Jinyao was innocent, it was undeniable that the danger was indeed caused by her.
It's hard to guarantee whether the Qi family will do the same thing again.
So when Zhang Xiaozu saw that the person looking for him was Qi Jinyao, he immediately became wary.
Qi Jinyao has been sitting in the side hall for a day, her palms are sweating all the time, and every pore in her body is filled with nervousness, because Dao Zu is sitting next to her, and she and Dao Zu are the only two people in the huge room.
Although Daozu had kind eyes and a gentle breath, and looked as kind as the grandpa next door, she couldn't help but feel an invisible pressure in her heart, which made her sit there without daring to move or take a breath.
Daozu suddenly stood up.
Qi Jinyao was suddenly startled and quickly stood up.
"Haha, Miss Qi, the one you want to see is Zhang Daliong. I won't sit with you anymore. You young people can chat." Daozu stroked his long beard and smiled at Qi Jinyao.
"You - please walk slowly." Qi Jinyao was so nervous that she stuttered.
Daozu smiled and walked away.
Qi Jinyao stood there tensely until she saw the back of Dao Ancestor disappear at the entrance of the hall, then she breathed a sigh of relief.
In just a short while, she was so nervous that she was sweating all over.
But just when she was about to sit back, she suddenly covered her mouth and screamed "ah", because she just realized that it was too rude for her to just stand motionless and watch Daozu leave.
At this moment, Zhang Xiaozu walked in with a smile on his face, saluted Qi Jinyao from a distance and said, "Miss Qi, long time no see, I hope you are well."
"ah!"
The sudden sound startled Qi Jinyao, who was in a panic. She looked towards the door and found that Zhang Xiaozu was coming. Seeing an acquaintance, she felt a little relieved and quickly replied: "Brother Zhang, haven't seen you for a long time."
"Why is Miss Qi sweating profusely? Is it very hot?"
Zhang Xiaozu walked closer and found Qi Jinyao's cheeks were red and there was a small amount of sweat on her forehead. He thought she was hot.
"No, it's not hot."
Qi Jinyao waved her hands awkwardly.
"Please take a seat."
Zhang Xiaozu sat down on the seat next to him, motioned for Qi Jinyao to sit down and talk, and then asked straight to the point: "I wonder why Miss Qi wants to see me?"
Qi Jinyao, who had just sat halfway, stood up suddenly when she heard Zhang Xiaozhu's question. She glanced at Zhang Xiaozhu nervously, then lowered her head in panic, pinched the corner of her clothes and said, "I'm here to apologize to Brother Zhang. I was the one who killed Xiao Hei. If it weren’t for me, Xiao Hei, he would not have been caught by the ancestor, nor would he have died miserably in the hands of the ancestor. I am guilty, a heinous crime, and an unpardonable crime. Brother Zhang, please punish me. Xiao Hei takes revenge.”
Speaking of sadness, tears burst from her eyes and fell on the ground in front of her feet.
Zhang Xiaozu was quite surprised. He didn't expect Qi Jinyao to come here for this matter. He thought it was the ancestor of the Qi family who told her that the Black Pool Holy Beast was dead. Qi Jinyao mistakenly thought that the Black Pool Holy Beast was really dead, so he came to the door to ask for help. He apologizes.
From Qi Jinyao's sad tears, we can feel that she is sincerely apologizing, but it is not yet known whether there is a conspiracy of the Qi family behind this apology.
"You are not to blame for that matter. It was your ancestor who took advantage of you. The fault lies with your ancestor. You don't need to apologize to me." Zhang Xiaozu decided not to reveal the news that the Holy Beast of Blackpool was alive.
"No, it's all my fault. Xiao Hei's troubles were all caused by me. If it weren't for me, he wouldn't have been caught by the ancestor." Qi Jinyao sobbed, filled with guilt.
Zhang Xiaozu did not dwell on this issue with Qi Jinyao. He changed the subject and asked tentatively: "Isn't Qijia City closed? How did you get out? Did you sneak out again?"
"Brother Zhang, what did you say? Qijiacheng is closed?" Qi Jinyao looked at Zhang Xiaopou in surprise and asked.
"You don't know?" Zhang Xiaozhu asked doubtfully.
Qi Jinyao shook his head.
Zhang Xiaozu gave Qi Jinyao a puzzled look.
"I was sent to Yaowang Sect by my ancestor after Xiaohei's accident. I have never been back to Qijiacheng, so I don't know what happened in Qijiacheng." Qi Jinyao explained.
"You're not from Qijia City?"
"No, I'm from Yaowang Sect."
"Why did your ancestor send you to Yaowang Sect?" Zhang Xiaozu asked curiously.
"Ancestor, his realm has fallen to the extraordinary level, and he wanted to ask the Yaowang Sect for some miraculous elixirs that can restore his cultivation, so - just -" Qi Jinyao's expression darkened and he did not continue.
"Qi'ar sold you to the Yaowang Sect and exchanged you for the elixir to restore your cultivation? Does the Yaowang Sect have such a elixir?" Zhang Xiaozhu asked in shock.
He was not shocked by Qi'er's cruelty and sold Qi Jinyao for medicine, but he was shocked that Qi'er might have returned to the transcendent realm.
"Yes." Qi Jinyao nodded.
"Has Zial's cultivation returned to the extraordinary realm?"
"I don't know either. The ancestor left the Medicine King Sect after getting the medicine and never came back. He must have recovered," Qi Jinyao said.
Some people died, but not completely...
