Chapter 245: Storm in Central China
The central continent, the imperial capital, the imperial city.
This continent has always been a place where strong men gather. It has always been respected by the strong men on the other four continents. The Immortal Saint Meeting that takes place once a thousand years has put a heavy mark on this place. But now, it has been revealed that There was a strange atmosphere, and wherever the vision could be seen, there was a faint and inexplicable black air, and even the clouds in the sky were dyed with a deathly gray air.
The Imperial City is the holy land of the Imperial Capital. With the Holy Palace sitting in its place, not even the four major families can come close to it. This place used to be so prosperous and noisy, but now it is as quiet as a dead city. The streets can no longer see the usual crowds of people coming and going. Even shops and restaurants, large and small, are almost completely closed. Being among them, there is an unspeakable depression that cannot be shaken off.
In a hidden room, a figure sat quietly. This house is very small and shabby. It is obvious at first glance that it is the daily residence of the common people. But now, except for that figure, there is no other atmosphere inside.
"Meow~"
Suddenly, a kitten jumped out of nowhere, and ran up to the roof in two or two. It just barked, and seemed to be frightened by the surrounding atmosphere. It ran towards a corner and disappeared in an instant. After a long time, there seemed to be fluctuations of breath coming from outside the room, but the man inside the room was still working quietly, but at this time, his eyebrows twitched imperceptibly.
"father in law!"
In the room, the meditating man suddenly stood up and shouted at the fluctuating air in front of him. Wherever the man looked, a figure wearing a bamboo hat immediately appeared.
As soon as the person wearing the bamboo hat stood still, he took off the bamboo hat on his head, walked towards the person who had just been sitting quietly, and asked softly: "Xiao Fei, the palace master hasn't come back yet?"
These two people are Bai Fei and Ye Jin.
When Ye Jin asked, Bai Fei nodded. Ye Jin stopped talking, walked to the table, and sat down on the chair. Immediately afterwards, Bai Fei also sat down. The two of them did not speak again, but just waited quietly.
After returning to the Xianwu Sect, Ye Jin and Ling Qian were already waiting there. Bai Fei didn't say anything more and took them through the teleportation array directly to the treasured land of the Holy Palace. They did not disturb the monsters in the Holy Palace Treasure Land, nor did they disturb the Xianwu Sect disciples who were practicing in the Holy Palace Treasure Land. They flew all the way towards the exit of the Holy Palace Treasure Land. Along the way, Bai Fei told Ye Jin and Ling Qian the disasters facing the central continent in detail.
When Ye Jin and Ling Qian heard this, they were immediately horrified, especially the latter. She was even more impatient that the place where she grew up was facing such a disaster. According to her thoughts, she would go to the Holy Palace to find out what was going on. Ye Jin After a long time of persuasion with Bai Fei, her excitement slowly calmed down.
After leaving the Holy Palace, the three of them gathered in this room. The changes in the Imperial City had made them realize the seriousness of the matter. After several discussions, they finally decided to divide their forces into three groups. Ye would go in to inquire about the situation of the four major families, Ling Qian would go in to inquire about the situation in the Holy Palace, and Bai Fei would go in to inquire about the situation of the four major families. , is responsible for contacting Mr. Mao. Bai Fei repeatedly told them that this trip was purely to inquire about information. No matter what they saw, they should not take action at will to avoid exposing their identities. Especially to Ling Qian, he warned her repeatedly.
Ye Jin and Ling Qian can be said to be Bai Fei's elders, but all matters are based on strength. With Bai Fei's current strength and what he said about Tian He's condition,
Install the latest version. 】
They had no choice but to obey his arrangements. Although both of them were quite strong, they were still far from enough. If it weren't for certain reasons, Bai Fei wouldn't want to tell them these things, let alone bring them to this dangerous place. Today, the current situation is still unclear. Once Tian He learns of their arrival, they will be passive.
Among the three groups, Bai Fei came back the earliest. That was because he didn't see Mr. Mao at all. Mao's mansion is still there, but the building is empty. After finally finding someone, he found out that half a year ago, Mr. Mao sold all his properties, dismissed his servants, and left the imperial city with more than a dozen loyal family members.
Bai Fei didn't stay long and quickly returned to the house, waiting for Ye Jin and Ling Qian to come back. According to his guess, Mr. Mao must have gone to the southern continent. That's fine. Although he couldn't find out more about the situation here from him, he was far away from the place of right and wrong and freed himself from worries. After all, , he is Cai'er's grandfather, and Bai Fei naturally doesn't want him to make any mistakes. Now that he has joined the Izumo family, he can also be of great help to his son. He believes that with Mr. Mao's experience and methods, Soon we will be able to create another world in the southern continent.
After Ye Jin came back, Bai Fei didn't ask about the situation of the four major families, and Ye Jin seemed to have no intention of speaking. They were all waiting for Ling Qian, feeling a little worried in their hearts, but they believed that Ling Qian, in such an extraordinary period, She will definitely not act on impulse.
There was deathly silence all around. It was still evening. In the past, even at night, it was full of people and lively. Today, it seems like two completely different worlds.
Two hours later, Ye Jin could hardly sit still. Fortunately, at this time, Ling Qian finally came back.
"Qian'er, are you okay?" Seeing that her face was slightly pale, Ye Jin asked anxiously.
Ling Qian didn't speak, just nodded, and then began to adjust her breathing. Bai Fei and Ye Jin saw this and continued to wait patiently.
After a while, Ling Qian's face returned to rosy, and the three of them sat at the table. Bai Fei first reported on his trip, told Mr. Mao's situation, and did not hide his guess. After speaking, he turned to Ye Jin and said, "Father-in-law, what's going on with the four major families?"
"The four major families are gone!" Ye Jin took a deep breath and said.
"They were all killed by Tian He?" Bai Fei's heart tightened.
"That's not true. The houses of the four major families are tightly closed, and there is a dead silence inside. I didn't go deep inside to see, but as far as I know, all the heads of the four major families have been controlled by Tian He, and the strong men of the four major families were killed or injured. There are many, Tian He must have already taken action before we came, and the remaining strong men are also controlled by him like the heads of the four major families. Qian'er, how is the situation in the Holy Palace?" Ye Jin sighed and turned to ask Ling Qian said.
"The situation is not very good either." Ling Qian's expression dimmed, and she paused for a while before speaking again, "I went to the middle palace first, and I saw a lot of acquaintances. In addition to the palm palaces of the other four palaces, Brother Jin just now The heads of the four major families mentioned were also there, and they all seemed to be waiting for Tian He to appear. However, I waited for a long time but did not see Tian He. From their conversations, it can be concluded that even if they were not attracted by Tian He Control, I have completely surrendered to him."
"You weren't discovered by them, were you?" Ye Jin asked with concern.
"I was far away, so I couldn't fully hear what they were discussing. However, I heard a piece of news.
. "Having said this, Ling Qian looked at Bai Fei and said, "Xiao Fei, you must be mentally prepared! "
"Did something happen to Shu Yanxin?" Bai Fei's expression changed and he asked.
"She is not in fear of her life for the time being. I heard them discussing that in three days, Tian He will hold a grand ceremony in the Imperial City. In addition to celebrating his complete control of the entire central continent, Tian He will also... marry the Saint at this time. Palace Master!"
"He dares!" Bai Fei shouted, clenching his fists.
"Xiao Fei, you can't be impulsive. Tian He is no longer what he used to be. You are the only one who can deal with him now." Ye Jin comforted him.
Bai Fei gradually regained his composure, and after a while, he said: "Father-in-law, Palace Master, you stay here first, I want to go out!"
"Xiao Fei——" Ye Jin shouted hurriedly.
"Don't worry, I'm just going out for a look, I won't let them find out. It's relatively safe here. You...you..."
"Xiao Fei, we will stay here forever, you have to be careful too!" Ling Qian quickly took over the conversation.
"Xiao Fei, we will discuss everything after you come back." Ye Jin nodded.
Bai Fei nodded, and in the blink of an eye, his figure disappeared.
One day later, Bai Fei returned to this hut.
Seeing that his breath was a little restless, Ye Jin and Ling Qian were a little worried, but they didn't ask him what happened to him, and Bai Fei didn't say anything either.
With Bai Fei's strength, one day was enough to do a lot of things, but he didn't find out about Shu Yanxin, and he didn't even see Tian He. One thing is certain, the central continent is completely controlled by Tian He. One thing that makes Bai Fei feel relieved is that they have not yet taken action against the Holy Palace Treasure.
According to Fei'er's reminder, killing Tian He is Bai Fei's ultimate mission. Currently, the two are equally powerful. It is conceivable that the ceremony two days later will be a shocking showdown.
The three of them studied and discussed this matter over and over again, and they all guessed that Tian He's ambition could not only be in the central continent. Maybe it would not be long before he would make plans for other continents. Once he left the Imperial City, Things are about to get more complicated, so the ceremony two days later is also a good opportunity.
Bai Fei repeatedly told Ye Jin and Ling Qian not to reveal their goals and not to participate in the duel between him and Tian He. The two nodded silently. Although they had already entered the Supreme Emperor realm, in front of Tian He, this strength was simply useless. It's not enough, and there are many powerful people controlled by him, including those with such a level. Once entangled, the consequences will be disastrous. They don't want Bai Fei to have worries, so they agreed to his suggestion.
Bai Fei knew that at the ceremony two days later, there would be a fierce battle between him and Tian He, and it would be a hard battle. According to Fei'er, Tian He was invaded by demonic energy, and the demonized Tian He's strength reached the peak of the immortal realm. Although he was also in this realm, and he was still a soul and martial artist, he not only had to rescue Shu Yanxin, but also had to take care of Regarding the safety of Ye Jin and Ling Qian, as well as the powerful people controlled by Tian He, he had no advantage and could only adapt to circumstances. He didn't dare to take risks, because he didn't know what kind of accident would happen if he made a breakthrough at this time.
After thinking about all the possibilities, the three finally reached a unanimous opinion. Then, the three of them began to sit cross-legged in meditation, in the best condition to face the shocking decisive battle two days later.
