Zhao Gongming took a deep breath and asked what he had been holding in his heart for a long time.
"Is my senior brother Jiejiao still there?" Zhao Gongming asked softly.
Although Zhao Gongming met Duobao Tathagata many times in the past, each occasion was at a formal occasion.
He might also understand some of Duobao Tathagata's current situation, so he didn't ask.
Now that Duobao Tathagata came to Tianxu Immortal City privately, Zhao Gongming could no longer bear it.
In fact, this sentence is not only what Zhao Gongming wants to ask, but also what countless Jiejiao disciples want to ask.
Although Jie Jiao has been completely destroyed now, countless Jie Jiao disciples still have Jie Jiao in their hearts.
Even though Jie Jiao's disciples have all sorts of faults and evil deeds, their loyalty to Jie Jiao is unquestionable.
Duobao Tathagata also appeared in a long silence when facing Zhao Gongming's questioning.
Finally, he said calmly, "Maybe he's still there."
After saying that, the entire figure disappeared, as if he was not here anymore.
Zhao Gongming was stunned when he heard this, but his expression soon relaxed.
This seems to be the best answer.
"Didn't I delay your business?" Zhao Gongming turned to look at Chen Qing.
Chen Qing smiled and said: "No, I have something to be delayed for."
"That's good."
………………
Chen Qing was just about to retreat to study Yuanshen swordsmanship in detail, when Zhen Yuanzi came.
But Zhen Yuanzi came over for no big reason, just to congratulate Chen Qing.
After all, Chen Qing obtained the Chaos Bell this time, which was indeed a great joy.
Chen Qing entertained Zhen Yuanzi well, and then talked about some topics about Shanyun.
After Shan Yun became a Golden Immortal, his growth rate not only did not slow down, but showed signs of getting faster and faster.
The growth rate of Taoxing has far surpassed that of his senior brother Yang Jiao.
You must know that Yang Jiao's talent is not bad even in the ancient world, although it may be a little worse than Yang Jian. After all, Yang Jian has the destiny of explaining teachings and protecting Dharma.
But it won't be much different.
This also doubled Yang Jiao's pressure. In recent years, he often went into seclusion and rarely went out without any major events.
"At this rate, I believe that within ten thousand years, Shanyun will be able to attain Daluo." Zhen Yuanzi said.
Chen Qing nodded. As Shanyun's master, he naturally knew this.
"When the time comes, Shanyun may be able to restore some memories of fellow Taoist Hongyun." Zhen Yuanzi added.
Chen Qing said: "It doesn't matter, no matter what, he is my disciple."
Even if the memory of ancestor Hongyun is restored, he is still Shanyun.
What Zhen Yuanzi is worried about is not this, but Hongmeng Ziqi.
"I'm worried that the disappeared Hongmeng Purple Qi will appear by then..." Zhen Yuanzi looked a little sad.
Chen Qing was not worried when he heard this, "Let's not talk about whether the Hongmeng Purple Qi will still recognize Shanyun. Even if it reappears on Shanyun, it doesn't matter. As long as I am here, no one can steal it."
"Another point is that when the four major lands of opportunity are completely integrated into the prehistoric world, the focus of the prehistoric world will be focused on Ancestor Yangmei and the others. As long as Shanyun doesn't tell it himself, no one will find out."
Now Chen Qing is not only able to protect his disciples, but also able to conceal their cause and effect and destiny.
With Chen Qing's Chaos Bell, even a saint could not calculate. As long as Chen Qing used the Chaos Bell to cover his disciple's energy, the saint would also be unable to calculate.
This is the purpose of Zhen Yuanzi's visit this time, but it's not easy to say it directly, so he beats around the bush.
Hearing what Chen Qing said, Zhen Yuanzi felt relieved.
After Zhen Yuanzi finished talking about the matter, he was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he started walking around Tianxu Fairy City.
On Chen Qing's side, his desire to retreat was interrupted again, this time it was the Ancestor of Styx who came.
Chen Qing was helpless. Why was it so difficult for him to practice in seclusion now?
However, after thinking about it, Chen Qing's expression gradually became serious.
Every time I want to retreat to practice Yuanshen swordsmanship, something will happen, which seems to be warning me somewhere?
At Chen Qing's level, many things are not aimless.
However, Chen Qing did some calculations and found that with his level of deduction, he couldn't calculate anything at all.
He shook his head, hoping that he was overthinking it.
When he saw Ancestor Styx, he found that his face was not very pretty.
"Fellow Daoist Minghe, what's wrong with you?" Chen Qing asked.
Ancestor Styx seemed very angry, "Chen Qing, I trust you so much, why do you do this?"
Chen Qing was stunned, frowned and asked, "What happened?"
Ancestor Minghe took out the Jade Emperor's decree that Chen Qing had given him, "Does this still count?"
Chen Qing said: "Natural calculation." After saying that, he seemed to understand something.
He looked at Patriarch Styx in astonishment, "Didn't you go to the underworld?"
When Ancestor Styx saw that Chen Qing didn't seem to be going back on his word, he frowned and said, "I was waiting for you to come over in the sea of blood, but you haven't been seen for hundreds of years. I thought you were going to cheat."
Chen Qingdao: "My credibility is not so low."
Then he said: "I thought you had asked His Majesty about this matter a long time ago. It's not like you don't know. I have been refining the Chaos Clock during this period. How can I have time to care about this?"
In fact, Ancestor Minghe also knew this, but he didn't want to go to heaven to find the Jade Emperor.
On the Jade Emperor's side, if Patriarch Minghe didn't come to see him, he would naturally pretend that it was nothing.
It is impossible for Ancestor Minghe to go to the underworld on his own, because the underworld is now regarded as a dragon's pond and a tiger's den, with Taoism and Buddhism, heaven's soldiers and generals, and the most important empress Houtu is still there.
Therefore, without the leadership of someone from heaven, the ancestor of Styx could only wait outside.
"Forget it, let me go with you personally." Chen Qing stood up. Since he agreed to this matter, he naturally did not intend to default on the bill.
Ancestor Minghe breathed a sigh of relief and stood up, preparing to follow Chen Qing to the underworld.
But soon, Chen Qing stopped and said, "Do you, Fellow Taoist Styx, plan to go to the underworld as the Son of Blood God?"
Ancestor Styx said: "Of course not, my true body has set out from the sea of blood and will arrive in the underworld soon."
This time, Ancestor Styx just asked his blood sea clone to come.
The main reason is that he doesn't know Chen Qing's thoughts. What if he is really going to regret it?
Once this happens, if you come here by yourself, you may be a sheep in a tiger's mouth.
Now that Chen Qing has the Chaos Bell, Patriarch Styx is no longer confident in facing him.
Especially once he is suppressed by the Chaos Clock, it will be difficult for him to escape even if he wants to.
His sea of blood may be of some use against other innate spiritual treasures, but it is basically completely useless against innate treasures.
So he needs to tread carefully.
