Huang Qing looked at the jade slip in his hand, his head confused.
"Did Chen Jinbei just tell me not to be enemies with Patriarch Tiezhu anymore?"
Elder Lu and Elder Han nodded together.
Of course they heard it.
But just like Huang Qing, the two elders Lu and Han were also in a state of confusion.
"What's going on?"
Huang Qing's face was full of astonishment.
"Could it be that Chen Jinbei missed? But even if he missed, he wouldn't be afraid of being like this, right?"
"His strength should not be inferior to that of the city lord!"
Elder Lu shook his head repeatedly, "It's a little too strange. How about contacting me again, Great Elder, to find out more about the matter."
Huang Qing said yes, and immediately urged the jade slip to be summoned again.
But this time, there was no movement on the jade slip.
Three times in a row, I couldn't get any response.
Huang Qing's expression completely changed.
"Chen Jinbei is afraid that he will destroy all the jade slips and completely cut off the connection with Lingxian City."
After hearing this, Han and Lu also changed their expressions.
Chen Jinbei was so frightened that he immediately cut off contact with Lingxian City. What exactly happened?
Isn’t that too outrageous?
Huang Qing's expression was extremely solemn.
Chen Jinbei's strange reaction made Huang Qing feel vaguely uneasy.
Especially Chen Jinbei's final reminder revealed a very important message.
That Patriarch Tiezhu was probably more terrifying than all of them imagined.
Even a strong man like Chen Jinbei was in such awe of him.
Thinking about Shendeng Valley and Jade Dragon Sect, they both took the initiative to make friends with Patriarch Tiezhu.
This is further proven.
"Could it be that our Lingxian City really provoked a mysterious master who should not be provoked?"
Huang Qing sat on the chair in a daze and took a deep breath slowly.
He looked at Elder Lu and Elder Han who were standing aside.
"I originally thought that Patriarch Tiezhu was just a very powerful casual cultivator who was good at flattery, and I never took him seriously."
"But now it seems that Huang was wrong. That Patriarch Tiezhu is definitely not an ordinary person."
Huang Qing said in a deep voice.
Elder Lu and Elder Han nodded together.
"Then now I What should Lingxian City do? We are already at odds with Patriarch Tiezhu."
"Yes, even Chen Jinbei is so in awe of this person. If we, Lingxian City, become our enemy, we will really suffer a big loss!"
Huang Qing frowned, his face was gloomy, and he was still a little confused.
Seeing that Huang Qing remained silent, Lu and Han didn't say anything more.
It takes enough time to make a cup of tea.
Huang Qing sat up straight, as if he had made some decision.
"Chen Jinbei's attitude is nothing more than two possibilities."
"One is that he was frightened by the Iron Pillar Ancestor."
"The other way is that Chen Jinbei takes advantage of Patriarch Tiezhu!"
Huang Qing said this.
Elder Lu and Elder Han were both stunned when they heard this.
"Perhaps Chen Jinbei received more benefits from Patriarch Tiezhu, so Chen Jinbei deliberately said what he just said to us."
Huang Qing continued, "If we just believe Chen Jinbei's words, I'm afraid we will play into the hands of Patriarch Tiezhu!"
Elder Lu and Elder Han looked at each other.
Although it feels a bit weird.
But if you think about it carefully, it seems to make some sense.
After all, Chen Jinbei's reaction was too weird and unconvincing.
"Then what does the great elder think we should do?"
Elder Han asked.
Huang Qing patted the storage bag on his waist and took out a jade bottle.
Seeing this jade bottle, Elder Lu and Elder Han were both shocked.
They all know what is in this jade bottle.
Soul-breaking pill!
"Take this elixir and some other rare treasures, and you two will go visit the Patriarch Tiezhu."
"Just say that I, Lingxian City, must apologize to him for what happened before."
Huang Qing ordered this.
Upon hearing this, Elder Lu and Elder Han immediately understood what Huang Qing meant.
This is obvious, but it is also shady.
Because this soul-breaking pill is very special, judging from its appearance and its fragrance, it is very similar to an elixir called the Xuanyu Soul-Quenching Pill.
Although they look similar, their medicinal properties are completely opposite.
After taking the Xuan Jade Soul Quenching Pill, it can warm and nourish the immortal soul, nourish the immortal body, and is especially effective in healing various injuries.
As for the soul-breaking pill, once you take this pill, you will feel the fairy soul is comfortable at first, but as time goes by, the fairy soul will gradually collapse and disintegrate.
And once the collapse begins, it is extremely difficult to contain it.
If you take too much, your soul will be destroyed and your body will die.
Because these two kinds of elixirs are very similar, even the elixirs used in refining them are similar. Therefore, unless they are very skilled alchemists, most people cannot tell the difference between these two kinds of elixirs.
Before Lin Chen was released halfway by Huikong, Huang Qing once used the Soul-Breaking Pill as a Mysterious Jade Soul-Quenching Pill for Lin Chen to take.
Just in case.
If Lin Chen has really betrayed Lingxian City, then he can rely on the Soul-Breaking Pill to make Lin Chen surrender.
"The Patriarch Tiezhu is by no means a brilliant alchemist, and there is no alchemist around him, so he definitely cannot see the dangers of this elixir."
Huang Qing had a sneer on his face.
"What's more, my bottle of Soul-Breaking Pill was made by the descendant of Situ Yan, the peerless pill immortal in the past. Mixing it with many rare treasures will not attract any attention."
"As long as Patriarch Tiezhu takes this pill, no matter how extraordinary he is, there will be no harm."
Elder Lu and Elder Han both showed admiration.
"The Great Elder is still smart."
"Yes, Patriarch Tiezhu is already in the hands of the Great Elder."
Huang Qing shook his head.
"I just hope that this person is not as scary as Chen Jinbei said and cannot see the dangers of this soul-breaking pill."
"If I am wrong, then this move will undoubtedly add fuel to the fire."
Elder Lu smiled and said, "The Great Elder is overly worried. I think Patriarch Tiezhu will never be as powerful as Chen Jinbei said."
"If it's as Chen Jinbei said, he can run rampant in Qiandao Prefecture, and even Qianxian Mansion probably won't be able to do anything to him."
Huang Qing sighed.
"I hope so."
At this time, Elder Han suddenly looked outside the hall.
"Lin Chen is still outside the hall, when will the Great Elder see him?"
When Lin Chen was mentioned, Huang Qing's face darkened again.
"You two go ahead and prepare the rare treasures for Shuiyue Sect. Lin Chen's matter I'll take care of it."
Elder Lu and Elder Han immediately resigned.
Huang Qing deliberately spent an extra hour.
Only then did someone bring Lin Chen in.
When Lin Chen stepped into the hall, he looked a little excited.
"Great Elder!"
Lin Chen ignored the salute and walked quickly to Huang Qing.
He looked straight at Huang Qing.
"Disciple just wants to know why you treat me like this?"
"Did I, Lin Chen, make any mistakes? Or am I saying that the great elder is dissatisfied with his disciples?"
"Please, Great Elder, tell me frankly instead of torturing the disciples like this!"
Huang Qing smiled slightly.
"Lin Chen, are you too worried?"
"I have watched you grow up as a child, and you are also the pride of my Lingxian City. How can I be dissatisfied with you?"
Lin Chen looked at Huang Qing in astonishment.
For a moment, I didn’t know whether Huang Qing’s words were true or false.
"But these days, I always feel like I'm being watched in Lingxian City, and I'm not allowed to set foot in many places."
"The elders and fellow disciples are also very repulsive to me."
Huang Qing waved his hand.
"Don't worry too much. This is not against you, but for other reasons. It will return to normal after a while."
After a pause, Huang Qing continued, "By the way, there is something else I need to ask you to do."
Lin Chen was a little suspicious, "But I don't know what it is?"
"In the Luotian Mountain area in the southeast, a group of casual cultivators seem to have unearthed several impressive immortal treasures. Before the other immortal sects know about this, hurry up and rush to Luotian Mountain."
"Bring back the immortal treasures obtained by these casual cultivators."
Lin Chen didn't suspect anything and felt a little happy in his heart.
It seems that I really think too much.
If the great elder can tell him to handle such an important matter, he must still think highly of himself.
"The disciple accepts the order and will never let the Great Elder down."
Lin Chen immediately took the order and left.
After Lin Chen left, Huang Qing showed a faint sneer.
"Lin Chen, Lin Chen, this is your last chance."
"If you really betray Lingxian City, I will kill you with my own hands!"
