Xu Feng held the token and came to the entrance of the bastion. The best thing he expected was that the defenders at the entrance saw the token and put him directly into the bastion. The second was to find other elders to decide the matter.
The worst thing is probably to go to Brother Xu's master, Wuxiang Zhenren Xiao Jing, and ask him to question Xu Feng himself.
Seeing that the blue-robed disciple did not run towards an old man in purple robe who was drinking tea in the distant city gate, but walked directly towards the center of the core area, Xu Feng's heart suddenly sank. He was preparing to find Brother Xu.
Master Xiao Jing is gone.
After a while, a tall old man with a thin body and slightly sunken cheeks quickly followed the previous disciple to the city gate.
Xiao Jing's eyes were as bright as an eagle's. Just staring at Xu Feng made Xu Feng's skin feel a slight pain like acupuncture.
"Follow me!" Xiao Jing took the elite disciple identity token and checked it over and over again.
The disciples at the city gate could only check the authenticity of this elite disciple token, but Xiao Jing wanted to check whether this token belonged to Brother Xu.
After the inspection, Xiao Jing's hand holding the token trembled slightly, he let out a sigh of relief in his heart, and a look of despair appeared in his eyes.
There had been no news coming back before. Xiao Jing knew that the situation was definitely not good and the probability of death was extremely high, but there was always a glimmer of hope in his heart. Now that he saw his token, Xiao Jing's extravagant hope was gone.
Holding the token tightly, Xiao Jing looked at Xu Feng with a trace of resentment in his eyes.
Xu Feng felt nervous. You must know that if you can complete a series of hidden tasks step by step to the end, the rewards will often be extremely amazing and can bring about earth-shaking changes in people.
Almost all secret realm apostles hope to trigger a series of hidden tasks when exploring the secret realm. Unfortunately, such tasks are hard to come by, and most of them are unique. As long as you choose to accept it, even if you don't complete it halfway, this task is impossible.
Triggered by the second person.
[You have completed the first ring of the hidden mission, reporting! The mission reward is 200 Xuantian Sect reputation points. Your current Xuantian Sect reputation is neutral 202/500. The second ring of the hidden mission is triggered! ]
[You have obtained the second link of the hidden mission, explanation. Mission requirements: Explain the cause of Brother Xu’s death to Xiao Jing. The mission completion criteria shall be determined by Xiao Jing! The mission reward is 300 Xuantian Sect reputation points. 】
The second round is another task without punishment, and the completion standard is based on Xiao Jing's judgment, which is a bit child's play. Xu Feng knows in his heart that if there is any problem with his explanation, Xiao Jing will probably kill him directly.
The punishment for failure in the second ring mission is self-evident, it is no different from being wiped out.
Now that the hidden mission has been triggered, Xu Feng can only go on bravely, and during the completion of the mission, he will always be by Xiao Jing's side. Xu Feng does not believe that there is that apostle who dares to face Xiao Jing, the elder of Xuantian Sect's outer sect.
Attack oneself in front of others.
Xiao Jing seemed unwilling to ask questions at the city gate. There were many people and Xiao Jing didn't want to be visited like a monkey.
After leading Xu Feng away, another purple-robed outer elder who had been waiting at the city gate to drink tea turned his head and looked at Xiao Jing's back, with a faint smile on his lips.
Xiao Jing led Xu Feng to a small courtyard, which seemed to be Xiao Jing's residence in the bastion. This small courtyard didn't look big, but compared with the stone houses in ordinary civilian areas, it was like a villa.
exist.
"Is my ex-son still alive?" Xiao Jing asked in a trembling tone.
"Sorry!" Xu Feng was silent for a moment, his figure swayed slightly, and disappeared. Just when Xiao Jing stood up in surprise and wanted to go forward to investigate, Xu Feng reappeared holding the body.
The yin energy in the secret realm was extremely strong, and the body had been stored in the yizhuang for several days, but there was no sign of decay. Instead, the skin turned livid, and it had a tendency to transform like a zombie.
"Qian'er!" Seeing the corpse, Xiao Jing couldn't bear it any longer, with a sad look on his face, tears streaming down his face, and he cried while hugging the corpse.
After a long time, Xiao Jing recovered a little and returned to his previous cold appearance, except for the redness around his eyes.
"Tell me, what happened, and how my ex-son died!" Xiao Jing's voice was as cold as the cold wind, and his eyes shot towards Xu Feng like knives.
"Brother Xu and I first met at the defensive entrance outside the slums of Batu City. At that time..."
Xu Feng started from the first contact with Brother Xu, recalling it and describing it in detail.
"...Later, because I was short of money, I went to the task collection office in the slums to find some tasks to do. At this time, Brother Xu happened to be leading a team out to perform a task. After seeing me, he invited me to join the team. That's it.
Head to the wilderness with the team led by Brother Xu..."
"...At that time, I discovered that there were six more vehicles in the Demon Clan's fleet..."
"...the number of monsters chasing us exceeded twenty. Brother Xu and I were outnumbered and began to flee deep into the wilderness..."
"Why don't you escape to Batu City!" Xiao Jing suddenly interrupted and asked coldly.
Xu Feng showed a trace of bitterness on his face and explained: "Brother Xu judged that this was obviously an ambush by the demon clan against him. Obviously, someone within the Xuantian Sect colluded with the demon clan and leaked the mission. The purpose is self-evident.
Yu, how dare we escape in the direction of Batu City?"
"Senior, if you want to investigate this matter, you might as well check to see if any disciples went out that day and didn't return until the next day or the third day..." Xu Feng suggested cautiously.
Xiao Jing's face sank like water. After a long time, he slowly said: "Continue!"
Xu Feng continued to talk about the two people escaping towards Zuo City. In order to distract the pursuers, Xu Feng offered to cut off the rear. Xiao Jing's eyes moved slightly. Then, Xu Feng described how he saved a half-breed.
Yao, with her help, sneaked into Zuodu City, and then searched for Brother Xu's traces in the city, and finally found his body.
"Senior, I swear that every word and sentence I say is not false. If you violate this oath, you will be punished by heaven and earth!" Xu Feng said with a sincere expression.
"You said, my disciple was killed by that group of bird demons?" Xiao Jing asked with a cold face.
"Brother Xu's body was hanging in the territory of the group of harpies at that time, and that night, the direction we fled was also in this area..." Xu Feng said: "Although I didn't see it with my own eyes, it was the harpies who killed him.
Brother Xu, but based on common sense, it should be a bird demon!"
Xiao Jing nodded slightly, stepped forward and examined the body carefully, gently stroking every scar with his fingers, and finally took a deep breath and sat back down again.
"It was indeed injured by the sharp claws of the bird demon. I swear to kill you in the vulture sand!" Xiao Jing said through gritted teeth.
"That..." Xu Feng hesitated for a moment, took out a demon pill from his arms, and stepped forward: "I have avenged Brother Xu. This demon pill is from Vulture Sand. Please check it, senior!"
