Chapter 287
Chapter 287 - As Expected of Fairy Ling Yao
Elder Qianhuo walked in front of Eyun and saw the cinnabar mole on Song Ru's forehead. He let out a surprised sound and thought for a while, then said, “Interesting, interesting. It turns out that after the Nine Heavens Jade Chimera took form, it actually went into the Jade Void.”
The eyes of the python were connected to the earth vein of the Heavenly Dubhe, and the Nine Heavens Jade Eel was not a plant but not a piece of jade. It was also a plant, but it was also a part of the heavenly treasures. In the thousands of years that had passed, he had paid attention to it twice when it was born and transformed. However, such a life and death situation was very common for him, so… That was the only impression he had.
Although Cui Hu was the only god in Upper Central Realm, it was not an exaggeration to call her a god with Elder Qianhuo's divine ability. He had the vision of a god, so naturally, he also had the mentality of a god. To him, the heaven and earth were just like a child.
Now, seeing the Nine Heavens Jade Eel that had witnessed its birth and growth once again, he was delighted and regretful.
The joy and regret were self-evident.
The Nine Heavens Jade Eel was extremely pure and pure. After it transformed into a human form, it was naturally extremely kind and wise. The thing that it did not fear the most was filth. What it feared the most was also filth. Under normal circumstances, it was immune to all poisons and evil. At the same time, it also had the effect of purifying.
However, once the filth absorbed by oneself exceeded the limit, it would become a burden and wear down one's cultivation. Xu Xinhong's Thousand Maple River Shrouding Technique was formed from his lifetime's cultivation. It was a poison that combined with the Dao Integration Stage. It almost instantly turned Song Ru back into her original form.
Originally, she had officially stepped into the ranks of cultivators. With the Nine Heavens Jade Eel's aptitude, in the future, she might be able to become the second Song Na. But now, her seven apertures were slowly closing. It would take another hundred or thousands of years for her to turn back into a mischievous stone. Only then would she be able to cultivate back to her human form.
It was no wonder that Eyun was so sad. This scene was no different from parting forever.
Song Ru keenly sensed Elder Qianhuo's “gaze.” She pulled Eyun's sleeve and whispered, “Master, Master, why is he looking at me?”
Eyun helped Song Ru up and stroked her forehead. It was as if he was treating a child. He bowed to Elder Qianhuo and said in a deep voice, “Greetings, emissary. May I ask if you have any personal matters to attend to?”
In terms of seniority, Elder Qianhuo was probably bigger than everyone present combined. However, although the Rotten River Tower was extraordinary, it was not one level higher than the various sects in Middle Continent. There was no reason for Eyun to be shorter than him. He was called the messenger. It was a gift from the same generation, neither servile nor overbearing. It was perfect.
Song Ru hid behind her master and looked at Elder Qianhuo. She had a timid and lively expression of a little girl. However, her appearance was that of a twenty year old lady, so she appeared to be innocent for no reason.
Elder Qianhuo also pulled his attention away from Song Ru and nodded. He said, “Originally, I just came out of seclusion and the sect master wanted to let Jiaosu come. But I calculated that the Black Tortoise legacy is currently under the Jade Void Sect, so I took the initiative to volunteer. As the envoy, I'm here to pay a visit. “
Eyun was stunned. The Black Tortoise legacy?
Before he could react, Song Ru had been pulling his sleeve from behind. At this moment, she suddenly tightened it, and Eyun immediately remembered.
The little girl that Song Ru brought back, Gu Shao, wasn't it the Black Tortoise legacy? !
Everyone knew that after the war between the human race and Devil Clan, the Saint went into seclusion. The Four Symbols were hidden.
The Azure Dragon only had Cui Hu, the master of the sect. She was the only one who could suppress the Devil Clan in the Rotten River Tower.
The Phoenix that was born from the Vermillion Bird was still waiting to be reborn in the Nirvana Secret Realm. They were nowhere to be found. There was no trace of her.
The white tiger was taken away by the Saint as a guardian.
The remaining Black Tortoise was actually hidden in the marketplace, merged with mortals, diluted bloodline, and finally disappeared without a trace.
The 28 Constellation of the Rotten River Tower was divided into four parts, and they were all family members of the Four Symbols. They followed the master to continue suppressing the Devil Clan in the The Boiling Depths, but they still wanted to welcome the old master back.
This Void Constellation belonged to the Black Tortoise Division. Now that he asked about the Black Tortoise's inheritance, naturally, he only had one goal, and that was to bring it away and nurture it.
Eyun understood what Elder Qianhuo meant, and he also understood that if he let Xu Su bring it to the Rotten River Tower and let the Black Tortoise Division nurture it, there might be a better future for him. However, Gu Shao was brought back by Song Ru, and she said that she would stay in the Jade Void. He could not let her go to another place. He shook his head and said, “I won't hide it from you. The child who has the inheritance of the Black Tortoise has already paid his respects to the ancestor of the Soaring Wisdom Sect the day before yesterday. I'm afraid I can't let her leave with the emissary.”
Elder Qianhuo, on the other hand, wasn't easily convinced. He said, “The four divisions of Rotten River Tower have pledged their loyalty to the Old Lord Four Elephants 10,000 years ago. In terms of time, it's even longer than your Ancestor Yu Xu, not to mention the fact that the Rotten River Tower isn't considered a sect. We can still be considered members of your sect. “
Eyun smiled bitterly and cupped his hands, “Envoy, please forgive me…”
Elder Qianhuo raised both of his snake-like staffs and said in an unquestionable tone, “You should know the importance of the Four Symbols Regather to suppress the Devil Clan, but I am not an unreasonable person. At least, you need to let me see the Black Tortoise legacy and explain the situation clearly. Let her make her own choice. “
At this point, Eyun could only agree, but he didn't have much hope in his heart.
After all, the reputation of the Rotten River Tower was like thunder in the ears of everyone. As long as one was a cultivator, there was no one who didn't yearn for it. He could only hope that the child could consider the old relationship on Song Ru's account. Otherwise, how sad would Song Ru be?
After finishing his private matter, he naturally had to get down to business.
Elder Qianhuo said, “Because I heard that there was a Devil Clan in the heart of Middle Continent, and also because I heard that Song Na was bewitched by the Devil Clan and betrayed the sect, many people questioned her. The sect master had been especially optimistic about this girl, and couldn't bear to see her covered in dust. Therefore, he took special care of her and asked me to come and investigate her. Give her appropriate assistance. “
The people from the various sects looked at each other, their faces filled with surprise and amazement. Although they had already guessed the purpose of the Rotten River Tower's messenger coming here, but… as expected of Fairy Song Na, even the elusive master of the Rotten River Tower had to pay extra attention to her!
The representative of the Honed Reaver Sword Sect was the most straightforward. He took the lead and cupped his hands, “The master of the Honed Reaver Sword Sect is wise. We will do our best to cooperate.”
The other sects echoed him. For a moment, everyone was talking loudly and full of energy.
Vast Nether Hall Master's facial expression changed slightly. Then, he immediately covered it up. He was cursing in his heart. Although the Rotten River Tower and the Soaring Wisdom Sect were allies on the same side, it was reasonable for them to help each other, but in the face of the Devil Clan… The Rotten River Tower would definitely eliminate the Devil Clan first.
Their fault was that they shouldn't use the Devil Clan as an excuse, but only this one crime could greatly undermine Song Na's reputation. Otherwise, with her support rate in the Soaring Wisdom Sect, even if she made some small mistakes… There would definitely be a large group of people helping to wash the floor.
Most importantly, logically speaking, the Rotten River Tower would not interfere with the matters in the Middle Continent. This time, no one knew what kind of evil wind was blowing, but not only did it send an envoy, it also sent an envoy. Furthermore, it was a Tribulation Passing Stage who had come to investigate. This was ridiculous!
After Elder Qianhuo finished speaking, the people of the various sects prepared to disperse. The disciples of the Jade Void Sect began to disperse to clean up the scene. Vast Nether Hall Master's face darkened. Just as he was about to return to treat his injuries, Eyun suddenly said, “Wait.”
Vast Nether Hall Master turned his head around. On the face of a kind face that Eyun had been a good person for so many years. For the first time, he showed a hard and cold expression and said in front of everyone. Since the messenger has finished speaking, I have something to say. Vast Nether Hall Master's duty is not good. It caused the great protective formation to lose its effectiveness. The first and second layers were lost, and countless disciples lost their lives. If it resulted in a great mistake, he would be whipped a thousand times, face the wall for a thousand days, and be stripped of his position as Palace Master. Degraded to an Elder.”
He faced Vast Nether Hall Master, whose eyes were filled with a frightening cold light, and protected his disciple behind him. He said word by word, “Do you have any objections?”
He had been muddle-headed for his entire life. From the weakest of his fellow disciples to the Sect Master who was powerless in the struggle between the four palaces, he really couldn't. He couldn't not even protect his disciple.
