"Wait a minute!"
A blazing flame melted the pressure above the hall. It was the terrifying aura coming from the real phoenix. Ye Chen, who was relieved, raised his head and heard Feng Yanjiu say:
"I have no interest in taking care of your Tianling Sect's troubles. I want to take this son away!"
The third elder didn't care about this, waved his hands and said: "Brother just said that we have some misunderstandings with little friend Ye Chen!"
"This misunderstanding has not been resolved yet. I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to take someone away from our Tianling Sect, right?"
The old man in brocade clothes had gloomy eyes, and he forced a smile. There was no trace of the unparalleled domineering look on his wrinkled old face, and he glanced at Ye Chen:
"Besides, you're here to see Xue Ji, right?"
The girl Qingxi couldn't hear the threat here, and shouted loudly: "Third Grandpa, you."
boom!
The old man in Jinyi suddenly had a fierce murderous intention all over his body and shouted: "Shut up!"
The Great Elder remained silent, but he also allowed the actions of the Third Elder. No matter what, we cannot let the people from the Nine Fire Temple take away Ye Chen in front of everyone today!
"oh?"
The red-haired man Feng Yan raised his eyebrows slightly: "Are you threatening my Nine Fire Temple?"
In the huge meeting hall, as soon as he said this, everything fell into silence. No one dared to make any further objections. Only the sound of slight breathing came and went.
Seeing that the situation was getting out of hand, the instigator Ye Chen remained silent, and the third elder secretly sent a message:
"Brother, we can't keep this kid!"
The corners of the Jinyi old man's eyes twitched slightly, but he never took his eyes away from Ye Chen for even a moment.
"well"
"Not to mention that killing a junior in public will attract criticism from all the races in the spiritual realm. Even with that kid's few words, the Nine Fires Temple will not give up on him easily."
"You know how important divine fire is to them."
The third elder coughed lightly, breaking the silent deadlock. He stopped arguing with everyone, sat down at a nearby table, and said calmly:
"Ye Chen, since you are here to look for Xue Ji, I believe Qingxi has also told you that, yes, she is imprisoned in the Thousand Layers Tower of our Tianling Sect and is facing the wall to think about her past."
"Xue Ji is the blood of my sect. She should not be killed due to emotion and reason, but she betrayed the sect."
Qingxi immediately interrupted: "Nonsense, it's impossible for Senior Sister Xueji to betray the sect. When grandpa comes back, I will let him seek justice!"
Tears were welling up in the girl's eyes. She was hysterical and filled with grievances that she could no longer contain. Just one day ago, the two old men in front of her were still so kind when they saw her, but now they have torn off the masks they had worn for a long time.
"I wonder if you have any advice, senior?" Ye Chen stretched out his hand and patted Qingxi's shoulder gently, standing up to protect the girl behind him, but he did not retreat even half a step when faced with the questioning from the two powerful men of Tianling Sect.
The people at the Nine Fire Temple on the side did not interrupt, but Feng Yanjiu showed a hint of appreciation in his eyes.
"I have said before, Xue Ji did not betray the sect. Her behavior was completely in compliance with the last words of senior Taoist Tianling."
Ye Chen was neither humble nor arrogant. After speaking, he turned to look at the elder, this old man who had been silent all this time.
"But he is already dead. We can't find out what the real situation is. After all, your words are not enough to shake the entire Tianling Sect's decision!"
The great elder, who had been silent for a while, said, looking at the upright man in front of him, he suddenly had a feeling, was he wrong?
"Hmph, boy, I heard that you also had a share in traveling with Xue Ji in the God-killing Hell, so you must have a trump card!"
"Let me see your strength. If you can survive with one move from me, Tianling Sect will no longer pursue Xue Ji's matter."
"Don't worry young man, I won't kill you, haha"
The third elder chuckled lightly, put forward his own suggestion, and then sent a message to the first elder:
"Brother, you must never let this kid leave. I will be the bad guy!"
"Ye Chen must die, and the Nine Fire Temple must stand on our side, for the sake of the sect."
The great elder's body was as still as a mountain and his expression was as usual, with no flaws visible. He remained silent regarding the third elder's suggestions.
"What a Tianling Sect, a strong man doesn't have the face to use it to bully a junior in the Shackles-cutting Realm!"
Feng Yanjiu snorted coldly, then raised his eyes to look at Ye Chen, and said: "Boy, you can refuse him. With me here today, you can leave standing, provided that I want to see the power of the divine fire.
"
Ye Chen smiled. The reason why Feng Yanjiu treated him like this was entirely because of the clues about the divine fire. How could he leave so easily after entering the fox's den?
He has the Dust Monument and the Iron Throne, so naturally he is not afraid of anything. At this moment, a voice suddenly came from Ye Chen's mind!
It’s the voice of the Queen of the Blood Phoenix Clan!
"Boy, listen to me next."
Ye Chen was slightly startled, but he didn't expect why the empress would speak out at this time. After the God-killing Hell, he did not arrange the empress in the Gourd of Heaven and Earth, but in the Martial Arts Reincarnation Chart.
In the Martial Arts Reincarnation Picture, there is also a mysterious little unicorn that was obtained before. The empress’ will actually has some affection for the little unicorn.
Now that the two have an agreement, they can be considered to be on the same boat.
The empress wanted to help him, so Ye Chen didn't say much.
Moreover, he had a vague feeling that the Nine Fire Temple, the Blood Phoenix Clan, the Holy Sky Divine Fire, and even Ji Siqing were vaguely contaminated by some cause and effect.
What exactly, he couldn't say.
"Thank you, senior, for protecting me, but the junior is here today because of my friend Xue Ji. Since the third elder said it was a test, then the junior will follow."
Ye Chen smiled, clasped his fists at Feng Yanjiu to show respect, and then continued: "As for the divine fire, I believe that I will not disappoint my senior."
Feng Yanjiu nodded lightly when he heard the words and said no more.
The third elder laughed loudly, stood up and clapped his hands in praise. There was a hint of compassion in his eyes when he looked at Ye Chen. In the Shackles Realm, not to mention a blow from a strong man of his level, even a strong Immortal Lord could not do it.
withstand.
In the eyes of everyone, Ye Chen is already a corpse, and it is just a gimmick to test the killing.
"but."
Ye Chen changed the topic, and just when everyone thought he was going to regret it, Ye Chen calmly said: "Does the Third Elder's words count?"
He looked at the great elder, as if seeking the old man's answer.
"Count!"
The great elder took a deep breath and calmly responded with two words.
Feng Yanjiu caressed his cheek gently and answered: "Don't worry, kid, you have such courage. If Tianling Sect doesn't make friends, I, Jiuhuo Temple, will stand by your side."
Whether it succeeds or not, Ye Chen can be regarded as inheriting the love of the Nine Fire Temple and intending to pursue the divine fire.
"Senior, please give me some advice!"
As soon as Ye Chen spoke, he felt an overwhelming pressure rushing towards him. Under the third elder's thin figure, the violent and terrifying aura was no longer concealed, and even a hint of vague murderous intent sputtered out.
