"You two are here just in time. The tea has been brewed. Please take a seat." The fourth elder waved with a smile.
Dorian and Jijiu walked around the fence and walked into the pavilion.
"The environment here is like this, don't mind it." The fourth elder said as he poured tea for them.
"I was drinking last night and I didn't have time to ask for advice. May I ask the fourth elder's name?" Daolin sat down and asked carelessly.
"I don't know my last name is Ye." Ye Shizhi replied with a smile on his face, giving people an extremely friendly attitude.
If he hadn't just seen him swallowing a shadow alive with his own eyes, Daolin would have believed that he was an elegant warrior, but the reality was completely different.
"Elder Ye, let's talk straight to the point, and don't lie. We don't have the intention and don't want to do this." Daolin said expressionlessly.
"Okay, if you can talk to Feng Junyi straight to the point in the morning, I can naturally do the same." Ye Shizhi said with a smile.
"So the shadow you sent was just to eavesdrop on my conversation with Feng Junyi?" Dolin asked with a frown.
"That's right and not. After all, your arrival is too sudden. If you don't care about Feng, I can't help but care about it." Ye Zhizhi said after taking a sip of tea.
"Then what do you think of our conversation?" Dorian asked with a sneer.
"It's very tempting. He is an old man, but I am not. Although I have never seen the cigarettes you mentioned, and although you don't have them in stock, but you can tell its effects so accurately, then of course you have been exposed to it, otherwise I would make up You won’t even come out, right?” Ye Shizhi said with a smile.
"Now that you understand, let's tell you what you mean!" Dolin picked up the tea cup and took a sip. He could taste that it was the same tea as the one he drank in the morning, but the taste was much better than the one in the morning. .
"Drink it, right? I grew all these teas. What I gave to Feng Junyi and the others was just what I picked out. My own tea must be the best." Ye Zhizhi always had a smile on his face.
Dorian didn't say anything this time, and Qingjiu was as silent as ever.
"Okay, let's get down to business. I'm very interested in the cigarettes you mentioned. I wonder if we can cooperate?" Ye Shizhi said seriously, putting away his smile.
"It's okay to cooperate with us, but you have to show your sincerity. After all, you didn't give me a very good impression from the beginning!" Dowling nodded.
"Kill him! Kill him if he disobeys!" Suddenly a voice sounded from Ye Zhizi.
"No, no, we can't get anything by killing him." Another voice also sounded.
"What are you afraid of! At worst, we won't play anymore... They killed Lao Qian, we can't spare them!" A third voice sounded.
"Shut up, you three. If you ruin my good deeds, I'll swallow you all up!" Ye Zhizhi said coldly, his voice not loud but making everyone shiver.
Daolin and Jijiu both frowned and looked at Ye Wanshu. This fourth elder gave them a really weird feeling, even weirder than the Wen Tianhuan they met before.
"Don't be offended, you two, let's continue talking about us." Ye Zhizhi said with a smile.
"Elder Ye, please tell us first what's going on with you. We can find out the details when we find a partner." Daolin said with a frown.
"I sincerely want to cooperate with you two. If you want to know anything, just ask. I will tell you everything I know." Ye Shizhi nodded and said.
"Then let's first talk about why your cultivation level is so much higher than that of the sect leader and other elders, but you are willing to be the fourth elder again?" Jijiu asked first.
"Because... I'm from outside, and I don't like this Great Yi Sect at all, so it's understandable." Ye Wanshou explained.
"Following your answer and continuing to ask, since you don't like Dayi Sect, why do you still stay here?" Jijiu continued to ask.
"Because I want this lake. You must have noticed that this lake is not simple." Ye Wanshou replied calmly.
"This lake is indeed not simple, but we can't understand it clearly. Please ask Elder Ye to clarify our doubts." Jijiu nodded and continued to ask.
"This lake is called Luofeng Lake. It is older than Dayi Sect by countless years. The reason why I stay here is because my ancestors have been looking for it for generations!"
"I knew it was finally found by me thirty years ago." Ye Shizhi said with a smile.
"What is it about the lake that attracts you?"
"If there is really a phoenix in this lake, and it is a living phoenix, do you believe it or not?" Ye Zhizhi said after taking a sip of tea.
"Phoenix? A living phoenix? How is this possible? Isn't the phoenix an ancient divine beast? It has been more than ten thousand years since ancient times. How can there be a living phoenix!!!" Daolin and Jijiu were both shocked.
"Other mythical beasts and strange beasts may die, but the phoenix is different. The phoenix can reach nirvana. The phoenix in the lake is in nirvana now, and will spread its wings and fly high again one day!"
"As the saying goes, the phoenix of Kunshan's broken jade screams, the hibiscus weeps and the fragrant orchid smiles, and the roc rises with the wind in one day and soars ninety thousand miles!"
Looking at Ye Zhiwen in Top Gun, Daolin interrupted at an inappropriate time: "Then you are here waiting for the success of Phoenix Nirvana?"
"Hahahaha... What does it have to do with me? It's just a beast. I stay here to consume it and slowly absorb it, so that I can obtain phoenix blood, phoenix bone, and many other benefits, as well as that The shocking power of annihilation, the method of Nirvana that can bring resurrection."
Seeing the increasingly crazier Ye Buzhu, Daolin and Jijiu frowned more and more.
"What's that shadow?" Jijiu asked.
"The soul of the dead in the water, the soul of the dead killed by the Phoenix. If it wants nirvana, in addition to its own life, it also needs to end its previous karma, and the souls of these powerful people are its karma."
"The dead soul? Can the Phoenix kill it? Hasn't it already begun Nirvana? How can it still kill people?" Jiejiu asked in confusion.
"It is true that it is Nirvana, but do you know how deep this lake is?" Ye Buzhi said with a smile.
The two shook their heads.
"With my strength, I dived for about five miles at the deepest point without seeing the ground, and the temperature gets higher the further down I go. Even with my seventh-grade creation realm, I can only stop at five miles." Ye Shizhi said. .
Dorian and Jijiu looked at each other, and they both saw shock in each other's eyes.
"Some of these dead souls accidentally fell and drowned, some were burned to death looking for the phoenix in the past years, and some were shocked to death by the breath of the phoenix egg. In short, death is the karma of the phoenix."
"And my skill happens to be able to control shadows. I collect these dead souls and refine them into shadows, which is equivalent to giving them a second life, hahahaha..."
A chill arose in Dolin's heart again. This was not giving the dead soul a second life. This was clearly using the dead soul to satisfy his own selfish desires. This kind of person was too insidious and not suitable to be their partner.
