Chapter 185
"What you say, I will discuss with the sect master," Zhuang Mochou nodded lightly and asked again:
"In your opinion, how should Elder Yan deal with it?"
Xiao Zhan thought for a while, frowned and said, "Punishment would be unfair to a meritorious minister like Elder Yan."
"But we can't let Elder Yan leave until the matter is cleared up."
"Let's do this, compromise," Xiao Zhan said in a deep voice: "Let's simply let Elder Yan stay in the sect temporarily. He can move around in the sect as he pleases, but he cannot leave Qingtian Sect."
"As for the sea crossing ship base, we will send another outer sect elder to take charge."
"Of course, in order to avoid similar troubles from happening again, it is best for the people sent this time to be Miss Mochou's own confidants."
Zhuang Mochou thought for a moment, nodded and said, "That's it."
After saying that, Zhuang Mochou turned around and left.
Xiao Zhan looked at Yan Long and said with a smile:
"Elder Yan, why are you still standing there?"
"Is it possible that you are still angry in your heart? Please understand, our sect is so big, it's okay to move freely in the sect."
"Besides, you stopped talking just now and stayed in the sect, which is convenient for you to practice."
"Let's go and have a drink at my place."
Yan Long asked Zhuang Mochou hesitantly:
"Miss Mochou, can I leave?"
Zhuang Mochou said softly without any unnecessary nonsense.
Early in the morning.
Xiao Zhan took Yan Long to the foot of Xuanjian Peak.
Zhuang Mochou took Linghua to the Jade Girl Peak.
Xiao Zhan smiled and said:
"Miss Mochou, would you like to have a drink together?"
Zhuang Mochou ignored Xiao Zhan and went straight to Jade Girl Peak.
On the Hanging Sword Peak.
In the open space in front of the building, there were several wine jars placed on the stone table.
Xiao Zhan was smiling and drinking with Yan Long, but in fact he had been observing the movements around him. After making sure that he and Yan Long were the only ones in the entire Xuanjian Peak, he started to talk about what he had encountered this time in Qingzhou.
After Yan Long heard this, his brows instantly twisted into the character "Chuan".
"Didn't Yan Kuan tell you what I said?"
Xiao Zhan shook his head:
"Senior Brother Yan Kuan told me."
"But I insisted on coming."
Yan Long sighed and looked at Xiao Zhan with a complicated expression:
"You are confused."
"Let me ask you, what state are you in now and what strength are you in?"
Facing Yan Long, Xiao Zhan naturally would not hide anything, and said truthfully: "The peak of the Qi Sea Realm, the real combat power, is probably equivalent to the middle stage of the Dan Lake Realm."
Yan Long smiled bitterly: "I haven't entered the middle stage of Dan Lake Realm yet!"
"So, Xiao Zhan, let me tell you!" Yan Long's expression suddenly became serious, and his eyes turned red:
"It's a pity that I, Yan Long, will die!"
"But if you die, it will be a huge loss to Yanlong City, a huge loss to Yanlong Kingdom and Huangzhou!"
"I won't allow you to act so impulsively in the future!"
As he spoke, tears welled up in Yan Long's eyes, and he raised his head and drank the wine, "Xiao Zhan, over the years, I have concealed my true identity, flattered the people of Qingtian Sect, and said things without knowing my true intentions. I said things I didn’t want to say and told a lot of lies.”
"All this is for Yanlong Kingdom!"
"If you die in Qingzhou because of me, Yan Long, I, Yan Long, will be the sinner of Yanlong Kingdom!"
"If that were the case, I would rather die than have you come to save me!"
Xiao Zhan also had red eyes, poured a glass of wine for Yan Long, and said:
"Third Elder, I know I was wrong."
"Now that things have happened, let's think about how to leave Qingtian Sect."
Yan Long frowned.
"You have eaten the Ten Thousand Insects Bone-eating Pill. The most important thing now is not to leave, but to detoxify!"
Xiao Zhan smiled and shook his head, "Third Elder, don't worry, that Ten Thousand Insects Bone-Eating Pill is useless to me."
"There is a more powerful poison in my body. Once the Ten Thousand Insects Bone-Devouring Pill enters my stomach, it is swallowed up like a tonic."
Yan Long's face was filled with astonishment, "Really?"
Seeing Xiao Zhan nodding, Yan Long said 'hmm' and said in a deep voice: "Since the Ten Thousand Insects Bone-Eating Pill has no effect on you, and you can move freely now."
"Then you should leave Qingtian Sect as soon as possible and don't come back again, and I will stay in Qingtian Sect first."
"No," Xiao Zhan shook his head, "In my opinion, according to the current situation, Third Elder, you are no longer suitable to stay in Qingtian Sect as an undercover agent."
"I'll find a way to send you back to Huangzhou."
The confusion in Yan Long's eyes deepened:
"How to do it exactly?"
Xiao Zhan thought for a while and said in a deep voice: "Third Elder, please wait patiently. I will come to you when the time is right."
Yan Long didn't ask any more questions, gave Xiao Zhan a few more words, and then left Xuanjian Peak.
A few more days passed.
Early this morning, as soon as Xiao Zhan opened the door, he saw fifteen people standing in front of the door.
Not surprisingly, it was Yan Xu and others.
The fact that they can come to Xiao Zhan means that their family members have been brought to Qingtian Sect, otherwise they will not be free.
And the reason why they came to Xiao Zhan today was naturally to discuss with Xiao Zhan how to escape from the Qingtian Sect.
Xiao Zhan's answer to them was only one word: "Wait!"
In the next few days, Yan Long, Yan Xu and others did not come to see Xiao Zhan.
Until this day, Shen Luoyan, who had been missing for a long time, suddenly returned to Qingtian Sect.
This made the senior officials of Qingtian Sect also breathe a sigh of relief.
First of all, Shen Luoyan is a genius in his own right and the daughter of the Shen family in Lingnan.
If there is no news from Shen Luoyan, the Lingnan Shen family might turn their anger on the Qingtian Sect.
Although the Qingtian Sect is much stronger than the Lingnan Shen family, the Qingtian Sect is not willing to get into such trouble at the moment.
Jade Girl Peak.
When Shen Luoyan climbed to Jade Girl Peak, she saw a beautiful figure wearing a silver dress standing on the edge of the cliff.
She was stunned for a moment, feeling the unfathomable aura on the opponent's body, then she cupped her fists and said:
"Shen Luoyan has met senior."
Zhuang Mochou nodded slowly, "Are you the second young lady of the Shen family in Lingnan, Shen Luoyan?"
Shen Luoyan nodded and said nothing more.
Zhuang Mochou asked without any warning:
"Has your sister been sent back to the Shen family?"
Shen Luoyan's eyes flashed with a hint of unnoticeable vigilance, but she still nodded and said, "Yes."
Zhuang Mochou looked into Shen Luoyan's eyes, and a strong sense of oppression instantly made Shen Luoyan turn pale.
"Where did you take your sister while you were missing?"
Shen Luoyan frowned slightly, "On the way home, Yutong's condition worsened. Fortunately, I met a mysterious old man."
"He helped Yutong cure his illness."
"Oh?" Zhuang Mochou's eyes flashed with surprise, "What kind of senior?"
Shen Luoyan shook his head, "We don't know the identity of that senior. We can only roughly guess that he is at least a powerful person in the God King realm."
"God King Realm?" Zhuang Mochou was silent for two seconds, then stood up and said, "Did you come to Jade Girl Peak because you lived here before?"
Shen Luoyan nodded, clasped his fists and said, "Senior, if you like this place, I will just find another place to live."
Zhuang Mochou shook his head and motioned for Shen Luoyan to sit down and talk.
She pointed at Xuanjian Peak opposite and asked slowly: "Some time ago, the person who lived in Xuanjian Peak was named Xiao Yanlong. Since you live in Jade Girl Peak, you should know something about that Xiao Yanlong, right?"
Shen Luoyan nodded, "I know a little bit, but I don't understand it deeply."
"Tell me about it," Zhuang Mochou obviously didn't want to let go of any useful information.
She had just returned to Qingtian Sect and had the idea of staying and taking charge of Qingtian Sect.
In recent times, the things that interested her the most were the cause of death of the Eighth Elder Wang Chongyang, and the other was the man named Xiao Yanlong.
Shen Luoyan thought for a moment and said slowly:
"Xiao Yanlong only lived on Xuanjian Peak for a short period of time."
"I usually practice on Xuanjian Peak."
"One day, my master, Wang Chongyang, the eighth elder of the inner sect, asked Xiao Yanlong to go to the Purple Bamboo Forest."
"Then I heard that he was accepted as a direct disciple by my master, and he is now my junior brother."
"Later, something happened at the Sutra Pavilion, and then I heard that Xiao Yanlong died in the accident at the Sutra Pavilion."
"But as for what happened in the Sutra Pavilion, I don't know."
Zhuang Mochou carefully savored Shen Luoyan's words, nodded, and continued to ask:
"Do you think it's possible that Xiao Yanlong is still alive?"
Shen Luoyan shook his head, "The news of Xiao Yanlong's death was directly announced by the senior leaders of the sect. I think he should really be dead."
Zhuang Mochou slowly said:
"If I tell you, the accident that happened in the Sutra Pavilion that day was because that Xiao Yanlong single-handedly triggered the Six Paths inheritance in the Sutra Pavilion."
"Furthermore, Xiao Yanlong was taken away by a strong man at the peak of the God King Realm. It is unknown whether he took away a corpse or a living person."
"In short, the Six Paths inheritance of Sutra Pavilion has also disappeared."
Seeing Shen Luoyan stunned, Zhuang Mochou smiled softly, "Do you know what it means if Xiao Yanlong is still alive?"
Without waiting for Shen Luoyan to answer, Zhuang Mochou said to himself:
"If he is still alive, it means that he carries the inherited power of six powerful God Emperors. As long as nothing happens, he can at least become a powerful person in the God Emperor realm, and it is even possible to break through that layer of shackles and step into the unprecedented realm. A realm that some people have entered before.”
Shen Luoyan's face was full of doubts, "Senior, what do you want me to do when you tell me this?"
Zhuang Mochou nodded, "Although there are strong men who are hidden in the world, they will never be encountered so easily."
"I suspect that the mysterious strong man who saved your sister is the one who took away Xiao Yanlong."
"If so, there is a chance to find that strong man through you, and thus find Xiao Yanlong."
Shen Luoyan's heart skipped a beat, but her expression remained normal: "But after that senior cured my sister, he left with us. We don't know where he went."
"Also, how can senior be sure that Xiao Yanlong is still alive?"
A gleam of wisdom flashed in Zhang Mochou's eyes:
"If the strong man who cured your sister is really the one who took away Xiao Yanlong, then he might be able to save Xiao Yanlong's life."
Speaking of this, Zhuang Mochou said in a deep voice:
"Shen Luoyan, you are from Qingtian Sect. I would like to ask if you are willing to cooperate with me to find that strong man, to find Xiao Yanlong?"
Although Shen Luoyan didn't like telling lies, but it was related to Xiao Zhan, so she had no choice but to nod and said:
"I am willing, please show me, senior, what should I do?"
Zhuang Mochou nodded, stood up and said:
"I will disclose to the public that Xiao Yanlong has received the inheritance of the Six Paths God Emperor."
"At that time, all the major forces will definitely try their best to find his whereabouts and try to win him over."
"You draw the face of the strong man who saved your sister. When the time comes, it will be said that he captured Xiao Yanlong."
Shen Luoyan nodded, "Okay."
Linghua, who was standing not far away, had already walked over with pen and ink in hand.
Shen Luoyan started drawing as soon as he picked up his pen, and within a short time, he drew an image of a kind-looking old man.
Zhuang Mo frowned because she discovered that this person was not the old devil who took away Xiao Yanlong from Qingtian Sect.
Zhuang Mochou took out another portrait of Xiao Yanlong and handed it to his personal maid Linghua, "Spread the news immediately."
But she would never have thought that Xiao Zhan would never be found based on this portrait alone.
Because Xiao Zhan now wears another mask.
This is Xiao Zhan's advantage.
Thanks to Third Elder Yan Long's skill in making masks, when he puts it on his face, there is nothing wrong with it, just like he always looks like this.
Seeing Zhuang Mochou leaving Jade Girl Peak, Shen Luoyan frowned and thought for a long time.
She was thinking whether she should find a way to go to Huangzhou and inform Xiao Zhan that the entire Qingtian Sect was looking for him.
With this thought in her heart, Shen Luoyan trembled.
Since the Qingtian Sect wants to find Xiao Zhan through her, it means that her every move will be monitored by the Qingtian Sect.
Therefore, her best choice is to stay in Qingtian Sect and not go anywhere!
