Chapter 220 The future is uncertain?
In the lakes of the islands, swimming fish freely shuttled through the clear water. On one of the smaller islands, two young men in their twenties were competing with each other.
Because they were just a competition, neither of them used weapons. The fists and feet were swift and feet quickly, and the speed was extremely fast. A faint magic power covered the two of them's bodies and fists, making their simple attacks extremely powerful. As soon as they kicked, the ground cracked, the fists collided, and the loud noises like drums were made.
Suddenly, the two stopped at the same time and looked into the sky outside the lake in surprise. A figure flew quickly from the horizon.
"Seeing the speed, this person should not have reached the Spirit Transformation Realm, but his speed is much faster than that of ordinary peak cultivators in the Spirit Rise Realm. Can you have this speed in the Spirit Rise Realm? Could it be that a genius like Chen Wandao?"
The two looked at each other in surprise, but when they saw clearly who the person was approaching quickly, their faces changed suddenly.
"It's Elder Jiang Chu of Lingshen Sect."
"I heard that the elders of the Spirit Transformation Realm of the Spirit Sect practiced some kind of Taoism and could enter the Qingtian Tomb. And they did do this. More than 300 elders entered the Qingtian Tomb. It is said that even the strong men from the Mingshen Realm were in. Judging from the flying speed of Elder Jiang Chu, it was obvious that he also used that Taoism to suppress his cultivation. However, Elder Jiang Chu should be in the Qingtian Tomb now, why did he suddenly come to the territory of my Huangfu family?"
The other person was also full of surprise and couldn't figure it out.
But then the two men's faces suddenly turned pale, and a hint of fear appeared in their eyes.
The two suddenly looked at each other, "Elder Jiang Chu suddenly came to the territory of my Huangfu family. Could it be because of Huangfu Qi?"
Both of them knew about Huangfu Qi being captured by his family. At this critical moment, the elders of the Lingshen Sect suddenly arrived, and it was obviously impossible to be a good thing.
"We must tell the clan leader about this matter immediately." One of the young men said anxiously: "Although Elder Jiang Chu's speed is much faster than ours, he is still a little far away from us now, and it is impossible for him to see the clan leader as soon as possible. We still have time. Go quickly."
The two immediately took off to the air and headed straight for the largest island in the center of the lake.
Elder Jiang Chu, who flew from afar, turned a blind eye to the actions of the two. As an elder of the Spirit Transformation Realm of the Spirit God Sect, as long as he did not do anything to massacre the Huangfu family, the Huangfu family would not dare to attack him.
When the river pestle fell on the largest island, two monks from the Spirit Realm quickly came over.
"I don't know if Elder Jiang Chu has arrived. I have missed the opportunity to welcome him. I hope Elder Jiang Chu will forgive me." The two of them had smiles on their faces and were very polite.
Elder Jiang Chu snorted coldly in his heart. The two young monks had discovered him before and had taken the lead in entering the island. How could these people not know that he was coming?
However, these emotions were not revealed. Although the Huangfu family was much weaker than the Lingshen Sect, the Huangfu family was only an affiliated force of the Lingshen Sect, not a slave of the Lingshen Sect.
Therefore, Elder Jiang Chu waved his hand lightly and said, "I want to see your patriarch."
"Please follow us." The two led the way in front, and Elder Jiang Chu followed behind and walked towards the center of the island.
At the same time, an extremely intense scene was taking place in a temple in the center of the island.
"I just said that the ignorant junior Huangfu Qi should not be brought back, but should be handed over to the Lingshen Sect directly for disposal. Now, the people from the Lingshen Sect have come to the door directly. My Huangfu family has been passed down for tens of thousands of years. Is it necessary to affect the inheritance because of a disciple?" The Ninth Elder said in anger.
Some time ago, Elder Nine went to the dungeon to teach Huangfu Qi a lesson, but unexpectedly, he was preached by Huangfu Qi in the end, which made Elder Nine feel extremely angry. When he had the chance, Elder Nine naturally had to take advantage of the situation.
Of course, Elder Nine said this to show his previous "foresight", which was to abandon one clan and protect the safety of others. In fact, the most important thing was to consider his own life.
In addition to the patriarch on the main seat, there were other elders sitting in this hall. Although the elders looked bad at this time, no one spoke, only the Ninth Elder seemed indignant and chattered endlessly.
"Xiao Jiu." The head of Huangfu, who was sitting in the main seat and wearing a light blue long gown, suddenly shouted.
Elder Nine, who was talking, was as if he had been suddenly pinched by someone's neck, and his voice stopped abruptly.
"Class Chief." The Ninth Elder calmed down and said respectfully.
"I called you to hear what you think about Jiang Chu's sudden arrival and how you should deal with it. And you have been talking about Huangfu Qi from the beginning. Is this what you think?" Although Huangfu's clan leader is just a middle-aged man, he has lived much longer than Elder Ninth, and his strength is naturally not comparable to Elder Ninth. Therefore, under the clan leader's gaze with a hint of scrutiny, Elder Ninth suddenly couldn't speak.
At this time, an old man sitting on the right side of the patriarch's hand suddenly said in a low voice: "What the two tribesmen guessed is still very reasonable. Now, all the elders of the Lingshen Sect have entered the Qingtian Tomb, but Jiang Chu suddenly appeared on the territory of my Huangfu family. This is obviously abnormal. I think it is true that Jiang Chu has come here because of Huangfu Qi. It's just..." The old man hesitated.
"Continue to say." The voice of Huangfu's clan leader could not hear the joy and anger, and he seemed very calm.
"But, Huangfu Qi cannot have such a great impact on the Lingshen Sect, so that Lingshen Sect will choose to send someone to my Huangfu family at this time. After all, the mistake made by Huangfu Qi is just that he is not loyal to the Lingshen Sect. Although this kind of thing is not in the open, everyone knows it. Who will be 100% loyal to the Lingshen Sect behind it? Lingshen Sect punished Huangfu Qi later, and should not come to my Huangfu family suddenly at this time. Unless this matter involves the monk named Kong Fang that Huangfu Qi knew."
"It's Kong Fang again, because of him, the Huangfu family, who provoked two forces in succession. One of them is the Lingshen Sect, which we are powerless to resist at all. If I see him, I must let him understand that being too arrogant requires a price to pay." The Ninth Elder was so angry that he was unable to calm down.
After hearing the words of Elder Nine, the muscles on the faces of some elders present couldn't help but jump. Although the whole thing was caused by Kong Fang, the Huangfu family's provocation of two forces had nothing to do with Kong Fang. That was their own problem. Elder Nine said such words, which made the elders present urge to throw him out, which was really embarrassing.
The patriarch on the main position could not help but glance at Elder Nine. Then he turned around and said to the other elder: "Lao Qi, go to the dungeon and bring Huangfu Qi, and we will go to welcome Jiang Chu."
A moment later, Elder Jiang Chu came to the temple with the powerful men of the Huangfu family, and the guests and hosts of both sides sat down. Elder Jiang Chu did not go around, and the monks captured by Kong Fang in the Qingtian Tomb were still waiting for him. He had no time to go around, so he said straight to the point: "Captain Huangfu, I have something to look for Huangfu Qi, I don't know where he is now?"
Everyone from the Huangfu family looked at each other, and Jiang Chu was indeed here to find Huangfu Qi.
Elder Nine sneered in his heart.
"Can you ask? Is there anything wrong with Elder Jiang Chu looking for Huangfu Qi?"
Huangfu Qi's disloyalty to the Lingshen Sect is on the surface, and Lingshen Sect has every reason to deal with Huangfu Qi. The Huangfu clan leader asked this question, but as a strong man at the peak of the Mingshen realm, he still has some confidence in facing the Lingshen realm. Of course, at this time, Elder Jiangzhu's cultivation level was only at the peak of the Lingshen realm, and he was not yet at the Lingshen realm.
Elder Jiang Chu's face suddenly changed. How could he say that it was because Kong Fang captured almost all the elders of the Spirit Transformation Realm and the powerful people of the Ming Shen Sect. It was Kong Fang who wanted to see Huangfu Qi and others. That was why he had to come. Elder Jiang Chu could not hide such a scandal, so how could he say it?
"Go back to Huangfu Clan Chief. I did have some things to come to Huangfu Qi this time, but I can't say it. But there is one thing I can guarantee to Huangfu Clan Chief that Lingshen Sect will never target the Huangfu family because of Huangfu Qi's affairs, nor will it kill Huangfu Qi, but..." Elder Jiang Chu paused for a moment before continuing: "It's hard to say whether Huangfu Qi can survive."
Like Fu Qu and others, Jiang Chu also believed that Kong Fang suddenly asked them to bring Huangfu Qi and the other four into the Qingtian Tomb. It was to kill the four people to vent their anger that he said the last sentence.
A strange light flashed in the eyes of the Huangfu clan leader. Elder Jiang Chu's words were a little contradictory. If Lingshen Sect does not kill Huangfu Qi, is there anyone else who wants to kill Huangfu Qi?
suddenly--
The Huangfu patriarch thought of someone.
When the Ninth Elder suddenly smiled relaxed on his face when he heard that the Lingshen Sect would not target the Huangfu family.
"Huangfu Qi must be very willing to do things for the Lingshen Sect. Elder Jiang Chu waited and Huangfu Qi would arrive soon." Elder Ninth could not wait to show his "loyalty".
"Elder Ninth is so eager, why not go by yourself." A cold voice came from outside the hall, but the voice had a faint sarcasm that made Elder Ninth's face darker, and a burst of anger rose in his heart. In the past, he was taught a lesson by Huangfu Qi, a junior, but now he was embarrassed in front of so many people, and Elder Ninth suddenly lost his mind.
"After raising and teaching you for so many years, can't you sacrifice for the family? You just raise a dog and know how to repay kindness. And you will only cause disasters and troubles for the family." The Ninth Elder, who was angrily ignited, opened his mouth and said extremely explicitly.
"Stop." The clan leader on the main seat suddenly roared, his voice like thunder, which made the entire hall shaking.
Elder Nine said such words in front of outsiders, and the other elders also looked at him with ugly expressions.
Elder Nine suddenly came to his senses when the clan leader roared. He wanted to explain something, but when he saw the clan leader's eyes that were about to spit out, Elder Nine felt that his mouth was extremely dry and he couldn't say anything. However, Elder Nine felt that he was not wrong. Sacrifice of one clan to protect all clan members, this was the most correct way to do it.
"Hahaha, I, Huangfu Qi, sacrificed for my family, would not even frown, I am willing to do so! But if my sacrifice is just for someone like you who can only wag your tail and beg for mercy, my sacrifice is not worth it." Huangfu Qi took it back without hesitation. Anyway, Huangfu Qi felt that he was not far from death, so there was no reason to be angry with the birds of the Ninth Elder again.
"Elder Jiang Chu, let's go." Huangfu Qi, wearing gray cloth clothes and his hair was scattered behind him, suddenly turned his head and said to Elder Jiang Chu. Huangfu Qi's expression returned to calm at this time, but a trace of sadness flashed through his eyes.
"Elder Jiang Chu, if the Lingshen Sect wants to punish my Huangfu family, my Huangfu family is willing to accept it, but can we keep Huangfu Qi?" Just as Elder Jiang Chu was about to take Huangfu Qi away, the Huangfu clan leader suddenly spoke.
The elders of the Huangfu family looked at the clan leader in surprise. They did not expect that the clan leader would be willing to bear all the faults for a clan. At this time, reason told them that sacrificing a clan member to protect the entire clan was the wisest way, but people had feelings after all, and they could not watch the clan members die like this.
A light flashed in Huangfu Qi's eyes, but then it dimmed again.
Elder Jiang Chu could only smile bitterly in his heart. He didn't want to take Huangfu Qi away. After all, bowing his head to Kong Fang was a shame for the Lingshen Sect. But now thousands of monks have fallen into Kong Fang's hands, and he has no choice at all.
"Sorry." Elder Jiang Chu shook his head slightly, and then quickly took Huangfu Qi to the air. (To be continued)
