Chapter 68: Backing of the Sect, Murder and Deterrence
Cao Xiu was surprised and happy.
Unexpectedly, Guo Houshan could still make arrangements for him even though he was already in seclusion to recuperate from his injuries.
Especially Qi Lingyun's words made him understand that he was not just an elder like Elder Guo in the sect, but the whole family including Qi Lingyun might become his backers.
Of course, this is based on his achievements.
If he fails to show corresponding potential, then at most Elder Guo will give him some benefits, but it is impossible for others to stand up for him.
Fortunately, the achievements he made this time are enough for him to digest for a long time. He can also use the power of the sect to collect various elixir seeds. With the help of the water of life, his cultivation speed will be enough even if he cannot surpass the outer sect.
Eye-catching.
What's more, his major is "Six Extremes of Holy Demon Art"!
In the early stage, this technique can only temper the body, but will not show any magical power. But after he reaches a small level of cultivation, his combat power will definitely be far higher than that of the same level, and he will not have to worry about being unable to enter the inner gate.
After he enters the inner gate, that's when he will truly take off!
But these are long-term plans, and now is not the time to think about them.
He quickly thanked Qi Lingyun: "Thank you very much, elder, for your guidance. This disciple is very grateful!"
"Call me uncle, your father and I are brothers of the same generation!"
"Yes, Master Qi!"
Cao Xiu immediately changed his words, instantly bringing the relationship closer.
"well!"
Qi Lingyun sighed softly: "I was familiar with your father back then. He was very talented. I thought he would be able to work hard and become the first disciple to be promoted to the Zifu under Master Guo, but something unexpected happened!
Now that you have entered the sect, it will be easy for you to cultivate. If you can achieve the three realms of heaven and man in the future, it will be considered as comforting his spirit in heaven!"
"Yes, this disciple will live up to my uncle's expectations!"
Cao Xiu agreed and said nothing more.
Because at this time, everyone had already walked through that section of the mine and came to the area covered by the formation.
"You dare to show off even if you are just a phantom formation!"
A flash of inspiration flashed in the female elder's eyes, and she directly saw through the reality and reality in the formation. She pinched the magic weapon in her hand and shot out several streams of light that directly broke the formation nodes.
In an instant, the scene before everyone's eyes changed.
There was no road ahead, but a narrow mine suddenly appeared.
Qi Lingyun opened his mouth and blew out a strong wind.
The violent wind not only completely destroyed all the restrictions in the mine, but also expanded the originally narrow mine several times, making the road immediately wider.
"what happened?"
In fact, the noise that Elder Qi blew out in one breath was so loud that it inevitably alarmed the Lin clan members who were mining inside.
"Who are you?"
The leader, a middle-aged man, looked at the elders approaching and his expression changed greatly.
Because he didn't see any members of his own family among these people.
What's more important is that, except for the two young men Cao Xiu and Shen Xu, the other elders all have extraordinary aura, and you can tell at a glance that they are not ordinary people.
They didn't believe that such people would come here for no reason.
Could it be that things have been exposed?
The middle-aged man's face is getting more and more ugly.
However, the people across from him ignored him. Instead, they all released their spiritual consciousness to observe the mineral veins here.
Elder Feng even flashed his figure and walked through the entire mine in a matter of seconds.
"It is indeed cold crystal chalcedony!"
He stretched out his hand to touch the cold crystal embedded in the stone, and couldn't help but curse in a low voice: "That old guy Ge Changqing is really a waste, he obviously has no talent in this area, but he still insists on showing off!
The result is good, such a large vein of cold crystal chalcedony cannot be discovered, but others take advantage of it, let's see how I humiliate him when I go back!"
After cursing a lot, his old face smiled again: "Looking at the reserves of cold crystal chalcedony, it is very likely that it is still a rich mine, and now the sect will have an extra income.
Well, maybe we can even get in touch with the Ice and Snow Palace, after all, there is a huge demand for treasures like cold crystal chalcedony!"
Seeing that several elders had gathered together and were discussing something softly, Cao Xiu and Shen Xu did not approach.
Cao Xiu glanced at the panicked Lin family, cleared his throat, and said loudly: "Listen carefully, these are the elders of the inner sect of Daluo Sect.
Now that the sect knows about the Lin family, they came here from the sect to find out what happened!"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone immediately became confused.
Some are frightened, some are desperate, some are panicking, and some want to drill into the depths of the mine, planning to use the mine to hide and escape with their lives!
"Be honest!"
Cao Xiu shouted loudly, and with a flash of cold light in his hand, he threw the water splitting fork. The sharp steel fork directly penetrated the body of the escaping man, nailing him firmly to the rock wall. He twitched a few times and stopped moving.
.
Shen Xu also took a step forward, and the folding fan in his hand suddenly flew out. The fan revealed a sharp edge, like a whirling scimitar, cutting off another fleeing person in half.
Then the folding fan flew back into his hand, and the guy didn't forget to fan himself twice in a cool manner.
"snort!"
Seeing that everyone was shocked, Cao Xiu finally spoke: "You still want to escape in front of the elders of the inner sect of Daluo Sect, have your brains been kicked by a donkey?
Who is the leader here, please stand up and speak!"
Everyone looked at me, and I looked at you. Finally, they pushed the middle-aged man out.
"Young man Lin Xian, I have met... the envoy!"
He took a deep breath, suppressed his uneasiness, and asked, "I wonder how my Lin family is doing now?"
Cao Xiu glanced at him and found that this guy's cultivation level was also higher than his own.
But he didn't take it to heart.
In front of Elder Qi and others, he said that the little mortal monk could not hurt them even if he had magical powers.
Therefore, he confidently said: "On the territory of my Daluo Sect, if you do such a thing behind the sect's back, do you need to say more about the result?"
"well!"
Hearing this, Lin Xian sighed deeply: "At the beginning, I advised the head of the family and the elders that there was no need to take such a big risk, but they didn't listen and sent me here to direct everyone to mine.
Even now, I don’t know if they will regret it!”
After sighing, he raised his head again and said to Cao Xiu: "The people who come here to mine are all members of the Lin clan who are not valued. They have no right to choose, and they don't even know the situation here before they come in.
As an insider, I should be held accountable, but can I let these people go?
They are innocent after all!"
"These sects will handle it themselves. They are all innocent, and it is not you who have the final say!"
Cao Xiu waved his hand: "I can't decide exactly what to do, so don't bother the elders, lead them out of here quickly, and go outside to wait for their fate!
By the way, take those two corpses away together so that they won’t be an eyesore to the elders when they explore the mine veins!”
