Chapter 163 Great Elder
This time was different from the previous one in the Qingzhou stronghold in southern Xinjiang. That time, whether it was the disguised Lei or the fat elder, they were basically the one or two people with the highest status. There was no need for too much communication. He only needed to put on a high-ranking attitude to avoid most of the trouble.
But this time, there were many people in the Demon Sect headquarters that Ghost Face could talk to.
Ning Qi was also mentally prepared and asked Ghost Face a lot of information in this regard, but it was always the case that the more you said, the more mistakes you made. He just didn't expect to meet someone before he had time to step into the Wanyan Grotto.
And it was a candidate for the Holy Son of a high status.
He could only stop, otherwise if he avoided it, it would seem deliberate.
Ning Qi's eyes under the mask were a little cold, and he didn't speak.
Jiang Tianlong had already come in front of him. He bowed slightly and smiled with a hint of respect:
"Why do you have to be like this, Deputy Sect Master Ghost Face? I wonder how you think about what I told you last time?"
Ning Qi was startled.
Who knows what you said to Ghost Face!
But then he realized that if Qin Yun was included, there were three candidates for the position of Saint Son in the Demon Sect. Now that Qin Yun had lost power, only Ye Qin and Jiang Tianlong were left to compete. The competition had reached a white-hot stage, and Guimian, who originally supported Qin Yun, naturally became a hot commodity.
He still didn't speak, but his eyes changed slightly, no longer so cold.
Sure enough.
Jiang Tianlong immediately struck while the iron was hot and said:
"Qin Yun is an outsider after all, why are you so persistent in helping him? If you are willing to help me ascend to the position of Saint Son, if I become the Sect Master in the future, the position of the Great Elder will be yours."
He smiled and painted a pie.
Ning Qi smiled coldly:
"Qin Yun is a person that the Great Elder values."
He said it very simply, but Jiang Tianlong's expression changed immediately.
Ning Qi stepped in and kept going down.
A wave of heat suddenly swept over, and a faint black gas emerged from his body, blocking it all out. Inside the cave, there were all kinds of fire-attributed exotic flowers and plants, which were of little use, but they emitted light and could resist the heat.
Looking at it, the cave was tall and wide, and there were many intersections that led in all directions, which were intricate and ingenious.
Ning Qi was slightly amazed in his heart. He recognized the exclusive mark left by the Demon Sect, constantly identifying the direction, stopping from time to time to wait, avoiding the flames. Although it was his first time here, he was familiar with it.
Jiang Tianlong followed him, and after a few times, he began to take the initiative to lead the way.
This is the practice of the Demon Sect. If you enter together, no matter how high or low your status is, you must show the ability to identify the mark, which is one of the means to prevent others from mixing in.
Jiang Tianlong whispered:
"Deputy Sect Master, I know you went out this time for Lin Ruhua's matter. Now that you have come back alone, there must be some twists and turns. Why don't you think about it again? You help me to suppress Ye Qin. You set the conditions."
He quietly revealed his means. This matter was originally extremely confidential.
Ning Qi raised his eyebrows. He suddenly realized that this candidate saint might not be a coincidence, but was waiting here specifically.
Ning Qi was about to speak.
There was another wave of fluctuations in front. Jiang Tianlong's expression changed, and he saw a bald young man stepping in from the other side. There were several black lines on his head, and he looked full of evil spirit. It was another candidate saint, Ye Qin.
Ye Qin laughed in a deep voice:
"It's a coincidence. I didn't expect Brother Jiang to come back with the ghost-faced deputy sect master. It seems that my sincerity is not enough."
He seemed to be pointing at something, and Jiang Tianlong just snorted.
The three of them moved forward.
Ye Qin bowed respectfully to Ning Qi, and then said:
"Did the deputy sect leader have a smooth trip? Have you met the elders of our Ye family?"
He asked with a smile, and at the same time showed his strength. This was a hint to Ning Qi that he knew all the plans, including that Elder Ye led the team to arrest Lin Ruhua and Jiang Baishan, Qin Yun assisted, and Ghost Face was secretly supervising.
The two came now, probably just to find out what the result would be. After all, if Qin Yun returned, there would be competition among the three families in the future, which would increase the variables.
But they didn't know that Ghost Face had already been secretly replaced by Ning Qi.
Ning Qi glanced at the two without emotion:
"You two saints want me to report something to you? That's great, why don't you come with me to see the elder."
Hearing the cold anger in the words, the two bowed and saluted:
"We dare not."
After all, Ghost Face is now the deputy sect leader. Except for a few people, the rest of the people have to be respectful when they see him.
Ning Qi snorted coldly and strode forward.
After such a long journey, it is estimated that they have drilled dozens of miles underground. The occasional flames are even more ferocious. However, after a certain turn, it gradually becomes safe. This is the safe area discovered by the ancestors of the Demon Sect.
Suddenly, Ning Qi's eyes were bright, and crystal stones like night pearls hung on the ceiling, like stars. In the vast underground world, there appeared a number of underground palaces with strict laws. They were gorgeous and lined up one after another. The closer to the center, the more luxurious the palaces were.
He had heard the description of the ghost face before, but seeing it with his own eyes at this time, he couldn't help but be amazed.
What he saw before him was like an underground imperial capital.
There were not many people inside, but many people.
Seeing Ning Qi and the others coming over, someone immediately came to greet them. Of course, these people were not the core high-level members of the Demon Sect, but their servants. Their ancestors were first brought here and were not allowed to go out. After that, they multiplied from generation to generation. At this time, most people no longer know what the outside world is like, or even know that there is a world outside at all.
Their only mission is to serve those very few powerful people from the Demon Sect.
"Greetings to the Ghost-faced Deputy Sect Master and the two Holy Sons!"
A group of pretty beauties in palace costumes came.
Ning Qi ignored it and just said lightly:
"Where is the Great Elder?"
The leading female official prostrated on the ground:
"The Great Elder was meditating in Wangyou Palace yesterday, saying that he will come out tomorrow."
Ning Qi's eyes flashed:
"Okay, if the great elder comes out of seclusion early, come and inform me."
With that said, he headed towards the underground palace where the ghost face belonged without looking back.
When Ning Qi disappeared, Jiang Tianlong and Ye Qin looked at each other with some doubts. Jiang Tianlong suddenly said:
"Have you noticed that today's Ghost Face Deputy Sect Master is a little weird?"
Ye Qin nodded and said:
"Did you notice it too? He doesn't seem to want to talk to us more."
He smiled meaningfully, and the black lines on his bald head seemed to be moving:
"You think...could there be an accident on this mission? I think the Ghost Face Deputy Sect Master seems to be quite anxious to see the Great Elder."
Jiang Tianlong said coldly:
"Your Ye family stole this mission this time. Don't you know what happened?"
Ye Qin spread his hands:
"I really don't know. It's obvious that the deputy master of the Ghost Face came back alone. Tsk, could it be that Qin Yun has betrayed him again?"
Jiang Tianlong's eyes flashed:
"How about some cooperation? This time we must not allow Qin Yun to return to the list of candidates for the Holy Son. After all, the two of us are direct descendants of the Holy Sect. Why should he, who joined halfway, be on an equal footing with us? The competition between two people is better than the competition between three people. ”
Ye Qin grinned, revealing his white teeth:
"I don't know what the Great Elder thought, but he actually supported Qin Yun. This time we join forces to pin Qin Yun to death!"
The two of them crossed each other and left as if nothing happened.
far away.
The corners of Ning Qi's mouth curved slightly.
With his strength, even if the two of them had used the method of transmitting sound into the secret, they could still hear it.
"It seems that the internal fighting within the Demon Sect is indeed very powerful."
What he saw and heard along the way made him deeply moved.
It is said that the predecessor of the Demon Sect is a remnant of the previous dynasty and has always wanted to overthrow the Great Yan. However, after two thousand years, it is hard to say how many people still retain their original intention. But this is fine. Everyone has their own agenda, which makes it easier for him.
He did not forget the purpose of his trip.
Returning to the palace where Ghost Face belonged, Ning Qi dismissed everyone and was alone.
"The key this time is to prevent the Demon Sect from giving birth to a Martial Saint, and the great elder is the only person who knows the secrets. The best way is to quietly control him and then ask everything. It's just that he is in retreat now, isn't it? So close.”
"Fortunately, it will be released tomorrow. If there is no information sent back from the fifth senior brother for several more days, it will definitely arouse suspicion."
"Perhaps... we can go explore after dark."
Ning Qi prepared for the worst, nothing more than forcing a fight.
Just make sure that the Great Elder is here. It's better than wandering around like a headless fly like before, but it's better to save some energy.
He slowly closed his eyes, comprehended the truth, and recharged his energy.
…
At night.
Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!
There is no sun or moon underground, but someone in the underground palace here controls the crystal on the top to collect the light, imitating the change of day and night.
Ning Qi suddenly opened his eyes.
He activated the Silence Technique and quietly stepped out of the palace.
The underground palace was now dark, with only the lights on. Ning Qi looked in the direction of Wangyou Palace, as light as a civet cat. Occasionally patrolling, but there was no trace of Ning Qi at all.
Although the underground palace is large, the cultivation level of these servants who serve the core and high-level officials of the Demon Sect is not high.
Not long after.
Ning Qi has stopped outside Wangyou Palace.
He hid in the dark and did not continue to enter. The guards were second to none. The main reason was that he noticed that in this palace, there was a strange formation secretly arranged. If he stepped in rashly, the people inside would definitely be killed. Wake up with a start.
Then we can only fight hard in the future.
The idea of sneaking in secretly to restrain the Great Elder suddenly came to nothing.
"Sure enough, it's not that easy. People like the Demon Sect are really cautious." Ning Qi thought to himself.
This is much more difficult than the previous Qingzhou stronghold in southern Xinjiang. That is to say, Ning Qi has this ability, otherwise others will not even be able to find the door to the underground palace.
He wasn't discouraged either.
Since it's not possible now, let's wait until we meet the great elder tomorrow to see if there is a chance.
Simply make some other preparations first.
Ning Qi's eyes flashed and he quietly touched other places in the underground palace.
Sneaking quietly along the way, he carefully sensed the surrounding atmosphere from time to time.
Not long after.
Ning Qi has already circled the underground palace.
He stopped, a little frightened:
"There are more than 30 people in the underground palace here who have the aura of the Heavenly Realm that I can sense. If you count the few that I haven't sensed, there may be more than 40 people? And the auras of these people are not weak. I'm afraid they are basically all It’s not as simple as entering the realm of heaven and humanity for the first time.”
This number is indeed astonishing.
After all, this is only the Tianren Realm in the Demon Sect headquarters. If we count the strong men in the various branches of the Demon Sect, it will be even more terrifying, and perhaps the number will double again.
"In the Thirteen States of Da Yan, there are probably only a few hundred Tianren Realm strong men in the world. Almost all of them are peerless geniuses picked from a billion, and the imperial court occupies at least 30%, and the rest are distributed in many martial arts sects in the world."
"No wonder the Demon Sect has been able to deal with the imperial court for so long, it is indeed profound."
Ning Qi became more cautious.
There are so many Tianren Realm, and there are many strong men who can rank at the top of the Tianren List. He must be careful. If a melee occurs, it may not be so easy to resolve.
If he wants to leave, there will be no danger, but if it fails this time, it will be unlikely to have such a good opportunity in the future.
Think carefully.
Ning Qi has already made an idea.
He quietly walked around the underground palace, avoiding patrols, and then inserted a few Gangyuan sword seeds. To be on the safe side, it would be better to set up a few formations to prevent anyone from slipping away.
After doing all this.
Ning Qi returned to his palace.
Now, just wait for tomorrow.
...
The next day.
Ning Qi had breakfast with many servants, and yesterday's female official came in:
"Deputy Sect Master, the Great Elder has come out of retreat from Wangyou Palace. He told me to ask you to go to Chaotian Palace to see him."
Chaotian Palace?
Ning Qi paused slightly, then nodded:
"I know."
This Chaotian Palace is the residence of the Great Elder. If the Great Elder is in retreat for a long time, it is here. This is the Great Elder's private place. On weekdays, he will never summon other high-level demons to go there. They will have other choices for discussion.
This is a manifestation of trust.
From the increasingly respectful attitude of the servants around him, you can know something.
But Ning Qi felt a little chill in his heart.
He straightened his robes according to Ghost Face's habit, and said:
"Lead the way in front."
The female official bowed her head respectfully and led the way in front.
Jiang Tianlong and Ye Qin, who were seen yesterday, appeared together. There was a trace of envy in their eyes, and they all complimented:
"Congratulations to Ghost Face Deputy Sect Leader for winning the favor of the Great Elder!"
In the Demon Sect.
The most important two people are the Sect Leader and the Great Elder. The power and secrets they hold are not comparable to others. They are all passed down by word of mouth. The Holy Son inherits the position of Sect Leader, and the Great Elder is chosen from the deputy sect leaders.
Now that Ghost Face has been summoned to Chaotian Hall by the Great Elder, his attitude has begun to have a great tendency.
Ning Qi thought about it, nodded and continued to move forward.
He heard the two people transmitting voices again:
"This Ghost Face Deputy Sect Leader is really lucky. Speaking of it, he was also an outsider who joined the Holy Sect like Qin Yun. Could it be that the Great Elder..."
The pupils of both of them shrank, and they did not continue.
But Ning Qi had already guessed a little.
A moment later.
Ning Qi strode into the Chaotian Palace, and he said respectfully:
"Ghost Face greets the Great Elder!"
Then a silver-haired old man slowly turned around, with a smile on his face.
