There was a snap in the dark basement.
The scholar was slapped hard, and the mask on his face was shattered, revealing a face with regular features. There was no expression on his face, and he lowered his head and said nothing.
"Do you still have the nerve to come back?"
The pharmacist's angry voice sounded: "Do you know what you did?"
The scholar was silent for a moment, clenching his fists silently: "I'm sorry, teacher."
"I've told you many times, why do we still need to cooperate with the Gravedigger Organization? We already have a Supreme Being behind us! Is there anything else in this world that can compare to the help of a Supreme Being?"
"The First Minister of the Ming Dynasty"
The pharmacist said coldly: "Stupid! You are also from the association, why do you still think they are a bunch of idiots? Do you know how many captains came in just such a clean-up operation? Even that woman Lu Zijin came. If I feel right, There is even the person in charge of the Omega Sequence, Chen Bojun! How terrifying!”
If you were a scholar in the past, you would probably be frightened when you hear these names.
But now he really doesn't feel anything.
Because after he went out privately this time, he encountered something a hundred and eighty thousand times more terrifying than these people.
No matter how powerful the Ether Association is, it doesn't matter.
"I just want to see who is behind the Gravedigger, and I want to save more cards so that I can have more initiative when facing the Supreme in the Immortal Palace."
The scholar whispered: "Isn't this okay?"
"If something happened, you would be a corpse now!"
The pharmacist scolded: "I have stressed to you countless times that as long as the Supreme Being cannot come out, she will have no way to do anything to us! She can kill us, but the price is that she will continue to be imprisoned in the Immortal Palace! Or wait until Zhulong The Venerable comes back and wipes her out completely. Or, facing the entire association in the weakest state!"
He put his hands behind his back and said in a deep voice: "She can't escape, what can she do to us?"
Scholar: "Ah, yes, yes."
The pharmacist was silent for a second and said: "But when you mention that thing, you really need to pay more attention. If that person escaped into the fairy palace later, that's fine. But if she was originally a ghost in the fairy palace, then " There is no record in "Xu Fu Ji". This matter... is indeed very strange. "
"I'll let the Kraken and the others investigate, and you can go and transport the supplies from the other strongholds back."
He ordered: "Be careful. Remember that we are not just wanted by the association. Even the Twilight Organization has blacklisted us. Those spiritual secret medicines, bring back whatever you can. The ones that come back will be destroyed on the spot, since we don’t lack that stuff anyway.”
When the scholar heard this, a strange light flashed in his eyes, and he said respectfully: "I understand, teacher."
"Okay, I'm going to study a new spiritual secret medicine."
The pharmacist turned around and said indifferently: "The most perfect spiritual secret medicine in the extraordinary stage will soon replace CMJ 113. This will establish my... master's name in one fell swoop!"
The scholar said respectfully: "Teacher, his name will be immortalized for generations to come!"

Gu Jianlin was lying in the hospital ward, staring at the ceiling in a daze.
Tuk Tuk.
There was a knock on the door, and Lu Zichen pushed the door open and came in. There was a bald parrot on his shoulder, with a straight face and said nothing.
Chen Qing carried a bag of breakfast and placed it on the bedside table. He said expressionlessly: "We have never seen this scene before. I remember the last time I brought breakfast to you when you were in the hospital."
Gu Jianlin thought seriously for a second: "The last time I heard this conversation was also the last time."
Chen Qing glared at him with a cold face: "You are really capable. It has only been less than a week since you became an ascendant, and you have already been hospitalized twice. What else do you want to do?"
Although the tone was scolding, he was more worried: "You are not old and have great abilities, but you still dare to hang up on us? If something happens to you, how will we go to see Professor Gu in the future?"
"Don't say that, Chen Qing."
Lu Zizheng said with a strange tone: "I am the new king of Fengcheng, the number one super star, a genius seed who has entered the Omega sequence, and someone who is valued by the King of Blue. You and I both have to take advantage of him, and he will not care about us. What happened to our phone? Oh, it’s not hung up yet, someone crushed the phone into pieces.”
At this time, the bald parrot also said in a sinister manner: "Although you killed them, I still have to ask you. Where are the other team members? If you can't answer, then I can only give you this wave of kills." You get zero points.”
What the hell is this?
Gu Jianlin was silent for a second: "Sorry."
Lu Zicheng placed an unopened mobile phone on the bedside table, along with a phone card.
"I bought a new mobile phone for you, and I also reported the loss and reissued the phone card for you."
He paused and suddenly said: "Thank you."
Gu Jianlin was stunned: "Thank you?"
"Thank you for everything you have done for Uncle Mu and the others."
Lu Zicheng subconsciously groped for the cigarette case, but found nothing. He could only scratch his head: "The people I am most sorry for in my life are probably Uncle Mu and his daughter. But because I am not strong enough, there are many more Due to the restrictions, I can’t do anything to help them, and even contacting them will harm them.”
He paused: "Thanks to you, you helped them regain their dignity. Although some people still died, it is the best ending compared to all being slaughtered."
Gu Jianlin hesitated for a second: "What happened back then?"
Lu Zicheng didn't seem to want to talk more, and just said: "It's nothing, it's all in the past. Originally, I just wanted you to go to Black Cloud City to have a look and get a preliminary feel for the evil and good in the extraordinary world, but I didn't expect that So many things have happened. You are crazy enough to have caused such a big fuss."
Chen Qing said seriously: "No matter what your father left for you, which gave you the ability to challenge higher levels, your body can no longer bear it, and you must use it with caution in the future."
Gu Jianlin pondered for a moment and nodded slightly.
His own physical condition couldn't be clearer.
This time the ancient deity also used that weird syllable, which almost killed him.
"By the way, I want to tell you that what happened last night needs to be divided into two parts."
Lu Zicheng said meaningfully: "In the first part, you did kill your superiors and slaughtered your companions, but since they are all degenerates, according to the rules of the association, no one can say anything to you. Even if this matter is Even if you go to the headquarters, you will be reasonable. But the problem is, some people are unreasonable."
"Many people in the association have nice words. They claim that since they have chosen to become an ascendant, they must stick to human beliefs. Once they fall, they must commit suicide."
He emphasized: "But when they really fall, they can't do it."
Chen Qing said coldly: "Double-standard dogs are like this. Faith cannot be blown out by mouth."
Gu Jianlin nodded slightly: "I understand."
"So for now, the Yan family really hates you and wants to crush you to ashes."
Lu Zicheng shrugged: "Not only did their two sons die, but they were also brought out of Fengcheng's extraordinary system. In other words, from now on they can no longer receive support from the association and become a wild sublime family. You don't I understand the struggles of extraordinary families, so I will say it bluntly... In less than ten years, the Yan family will probably collapse."
Gu Jianlin probably understood what he meant: "So they will come to take revenge on me, right?"
"Yes, as for the second part, it's Uncle Mu and the others."
Lu Zicheng looked at him deeply: "Did you know? The reason Uncle Mu and the others were able to survive this time, instead of being taken away for torture or massacred on the spot, was just because of one person."
Gu Jianlin understood what he meant: "The King of Blue, Huaiyin."
"Yes, do you remember what I told you when we first met? In this extraordinary world, only fists are the greatest truth. As long as you are strong enough, someone will be willing to change it for you Rules. The Tribunal is not willing to openly offend the Blue King for Uncle Mu and the others."
Lu Zicheng explained: "But behind the scenes, they will still find ways to make small moves."
Gu Jianlin asked calmly: "So?"
"So, what my sister means is, now that you wake up, don't waste time."
Lu Zicheng snapped his fingers: "Chen Qing, do it!"
Chen Qing walked forward expressionlessly, held down the weak young man on the bed, and began to untie his hospital clothes.
Gu Jianlin's expression changed for the first time: "Sister Chen Qing, if you have anything to say, please..."
"Shut up."
Chen Qing gave him a cold look, then threw a bag of new clothes on the bed: "Time is running out, change clothes."
Gu Jianlin felt so weak that he held on and said, "I can do it by myself..."
"It's not the first time. Why are you so shy?"
Chen Qing glanced at him: "When you were unconscious, I helped you take a bath."
Gu Jianlin: "..."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk."
Lu Zicheng turned around and pretended not to see anything: "Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you. Now that you are in the Aether Association, you can be said to be famous. Not only did you surpass the Thunder and become the top of the merit list No. 1, and also has a new nickname. Well... you’ll find out later.”

After the hospital confirmed that Gu Jianlin's health was no longer serious, he was allowed to be discharged from the hospital.
Wearing a white shirt and jeans, with a newly purchased mobile phone in his pocket, he walked out of the hospital door in a daze, passing by the bustling crowd, and warm sunshine and choking exhaust fumes hit his face.
After the fighting in Heiyun City Walled City, he returned to the modern city, as if he had returned to the human world.
He lowered his head, bit off half of the dough stick, and walked across the parking lot in front of the hospital.
Today is Friday, the temperature at noon is a bit hot, and the sun is rarely bright.
There were not many people on the street. The old man buying snacks pushed his trolley past. The ramen restaurant and Shaxian snacks across the street were crowded with people, and a strong fragrance flowed along the wind.
At this time, he suddenly saw a grocery store under the shade of the trees on the street.
He was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously crossed the road and walked over.
At this moment, he finally knew why he had to be discharged from the hospital early.
The grocery store still has no door, and the shop is filled with the faint smell of sandalwood.
On the mahogany lounge chair, the white-haired old man was lying on it, seemingly asleep.
"Discharged?"
Jing Ci walked out of the shop, hung a painting on the wall, and said with a gentle smile: "Teacher just had lunch and is still taking a nap. God knows how long a nap will take. You can sit wherever you like."
Gu Jianlin hesitated for a second and nodded slightly: "Okay... Thank you for what happened last time."
"You're welcome."
Jing Ci smiled slightly, turned around and went into the store to pack his things.
This was the second time Gu Jianlin came to this ancient grocery store. His eyes suddenly fixed on the painting that had just been hung on the wall. His eyes shrank slightly and he was stunned on the spot.
It is not so much a painting as it is an essay with ink splashed casually. The black ink lines crisscross on the white rice paper, like a dragon that reaches the sky, circling into the sky.
It's just that among the wild and wild ink lines, a graceful and graceful curve is actually outlined.
At first glance, this painting does not look like a masterpiece by a famous artist, but the more you look at it, the more you find it has an indescribable meaning. I just feel that the black and white in the painting seem to convey the will of life and death, and the dark dragon seems to be coming. Soaring into the sky, the graceful and graceful curves are like a girl's glance, and the world collapses.
Gu Jianlin's eyes narrowed, because his intuition told him that this painting must be at least two hundred years old.
