When Xiao Nanfeng and others heard this, their expressions suddenly changed.
"You just go back to your respective palaces and protect your families. No one is allowed to disobey orders."
There was silence for a while.
"I obey." Several people stood up and left, but Xiao Nanfeng remained where he was.
Li Pingshi turned his head and said, "Palace Master Tongyin, what else do you want..."
Before he could finish speaking, Xiao Nanfeng took advantage of his unpreparedness, folded his fan to blow cold air, drew a half-moon path in the air, and attacked Li Pingshi with his horizontal fan, going straight to his throat.
"Palace Master Tongyin, are you looking for death?"
Xiao Nanfeng's folding fan was only an inch away from Li Pingshi, but he couldn't move any further.
Her cold eyes were filled with anger, and she gritted her teeth and said, "Although Tiangong is a place full of secrets, women like us in Tongyin Palace, a land of smoke and willows, also know many secrets."
"Wu Xing Palace, Jian Yuan Palace, Tong Yin Palace, Ten Thousand Poison Palace, no matter which secret palace it is, there are people with the same strange mark engraved on their hands. I didn't take it seriously until I found out that the person with this mark was really Quite a few, so I asked the leader to give me an explanation."
Li Pingshi caught the folding fan's hand. The cuffs were scratched by the cold air, and a mark was exposed on his wrist. Xiao Nanfeng made a rare loss of composure, with veins protruding around his eyes. He said coldly: "Please tell me, what does that mark mean? And why do you want it?" Sacrifice the young leader?"
Li Ping's eyes were indifferent: "I clearly said just now that if you want to know the truth, you have to pay the price with your life."
"Without the Young Master, Tongyin Palace would be in dire straits now and in the future. Rather than asking me to stand by and let you kill him, it would be better for me to die here like this!"
Li Pingshi's zhenqi took away the coldness from her, and she turned around, "The Lord of Tiangong is a man who is proficient in the sorcery of the Western Regions. Many people in the sect have now become his subordinates."
"Although those people are still his believers now, as long as the Lord of Heavenly Palace needs them, they will forget everything and become soldiers of Heavenly Palace."
Xiao Nanfeng stared at the mark on Li Pingshi's wrist, "So are you the leader, too?"
"No." Li Ping looked down at his left wrist and said solemnly: "This is the proof of my deal with him, and it is also the shackles that bind me."
Back then, before the succession ceremony began, the Lord of Heavenly Palace took the initiative to find Li Pingshi and proposed to join forces to cause a bloody disaster to the Ming Cult.
After Li Pingshi rejected the Lord of Heavenly Palace, the two fought for three days and three nights.
Li Pingshi, who inherited Beiming's magical power, had no opponent in the entire Mingjiao. When he aspired to become the Mingjiao leader, he felt endless emptiness. He needed someone with the same vision as his own.
The Lord of the Heavenly Palace had enough qualifications, and in the end the two of them put aside the victory and had a good time drinking and talking.
As time went by, Li Pingshi's suspicion of him gradually dissipated, thinking that he had just taken the wrong path and was now a reliable and trustworthy friend.
Until Li Pingshi discovered that other people's lives are just a moment to him, and human lives are just a street to him.
Xiao Nanfeng frowned: "Who is he?"
"The old monster from the Western Regions, the Tianshan Tonglao, has been changing bodies for hundreds of years and has been living till now."
As time went by, his physical body was constantly transferred, which gradually weakened his strength. After hundreds of years of cultivation, he could only fight to a draw with Li Pingshi.
According to rumors, Beiming's magical power can rejuvenate the physical body by absorbing true energy. The Lord of Tiangong approached Li Pingshi for this purpose.
After countless attempts and fusions, he finally found a body that perfectly suited him.
The body of a blue dragon.
After learning all the truth, Li Pingshi began to think of ways to stop him, hid the body of the blue dragon, and proposed a deal with the Lord of Heavenly Palace.
The deal is that when Li Pingshi returns, he will hand over the body of the Canglong to him and help him turn hundreds of thousands of mountains into rivers of blood.
Li Pingshi raised his arm, looked at the mark on his wrist, and said solemnly: "This mark is the proof of the transaction between us, and it is also the shackles that bind me."
"So you have to sacrifice Yangming Palace and the young leader. As a dignified leader and his father, how can you do such a thing?"
"If the body of the Azure Dragon is given to the Lord of the Heavenly Palace, he will really become a nearly immortal existence. No one will be able to stop him then. This move is just to reduce the sacrifices of the believers."
"That's why I don't allow you to interfere, Xiao Nanfeng, you know too much." The true energy gathered in Li Pingshi's palm. Xiao Nanfeng was completely unable to resist this energy. He was sucked in, and Li Pingshi suddenly pinched him. her neck.
Xiao Nanfeng felt that her inner strength was constantly being sucked away. Her eyes were blood red, and two lines of tears fell from the corners of her eyes. She murmured: "No, young leader, run away..."
The folding fan slipped from Xiao Nanfeng's hand.
Lu Haizhou, Dongfang Kui and Wei Yuanji were speechless when they returned to their secret palace. The only words in their minds were, "In order to stop Tiangong, the young leader and Yangming Palace must be sacrificed."
…
The Palace of Martial Arts.
Gongsun Huai, who was covered in gauze, gritted his teeth, and while enduring the backlash of true energy in his body, he released the white divine light to block the Council of Elders.
Behind him, Mu Shaocheng was carrying Gongsun Yang, who had fainted.
"Shaocheng, go quickly! Take the young palace master to the Daliao Gate in the north to hide!" Gongsun Huai said in a line. He was seriously injured and could only barely avoid the elders' attack, but he still rushed forward to fight with them. .
Mu Shaocheng, when I return to the earth and meet your brother, I will tell him for your hard work.
Gongsun Yang, with your talent and ability, you will definitely be able to break through to the transformation state within ten years, and you will definitely be able to reach the peak of the transformation state within the next thirty years, so before that, you must not come back.
I don't blame you for betraying me and choosing to work with the leader to help other palace masters. This is your choice. The road you step on may go further.
If it were you and him, your generation might have a different ending.
Gongsun Fu, just find a place to hide and never come forward. Fools should stay where fools belong. The chaotic battlefield is not suitable for you.
You two, stay alive.
Gongsun Huai roared angrily, and dazzling white light emitted, sending several elders nearby flying away.
"thumping!"
Qu Yuanshan appeared behind him and slapped his palm, causing Gongsun Yang to spit out blood.
"Gongsun Huai, Mingjiao does not belong to your family! It's time to return Mingjiao to its believers!"
Following Qu Yuanshan's palm strike, other elders appeared in various positions, either using fists or palms, and struck Gongsun Huai with all their strength.
If Gongsun Huai in his heyday were to be surrounded by one Transformation Realm and eight first-class peak figures, he would definitely be able to escape unscathed, not to mention killing them all.
But there is no if.
If Gongsun Huai was really in his prime, no one from the Presbyterian Church would come.
Gongsun Huai collapsed in a pool of blood, his vision gradually blurred, but there was no unwillingness on his face. He was meant to die at the hands of the young leader. As a defeated person, he would die as soon as he died.
But Gongsun Yang, you are the only hope of the family. You must live on. As long as you are alive, the Gongsun family will have a future. Your brother also relies on you.
…
Yangming Palace.
A group of people wearing cloaks and evil ghost masks stood at the entrance of Yangming Palace with murderous intent.
"Squeak."
The door was pushed open from the inside, and Gongsun Fu raised his lips: "You are finally here."
The leader of the assassins drew out his sword and said coldly: "Everyone obeys the order. The Lord of Tiangong wants us to annihilate Yangming Palace and eliminate everyone."
"You are really impatient." Facing the oncoming assassins, Gongsun Fu smiled calmly, showed the Canglong card, and said seriously: "Stop it!"
The assassin stopped suddenly and raised the sword halfway.
In the basement of Yangming Palace, Gongsun Fu curled his lips and said: "Tsk, these days I have been working as a cow and a horse under the hands of the young leader. I am as tired as a dog. And because of his bad reputation, I am always implicated. You all No one understands my pain!"
The assassin nodded awkwardly and agreed: "Mr. Messenger, we all understand, but can you first tell us where the people from Yangming Palace have fled to? Why is there no one in Yangming Palace?"
"It's so noisy! Why are you urging me? Am I not taking you to the underground secret room where they are hiding?"
