When Baili Xu came in, Ling Bufei was handling official business.
Too many changes have happened these days, and the sect has a backlog of affairs that are complicated to deal with.
"Sir, a distinguished guest is here."
Ling Bufei didn't even raise his head: "What kind of distinguished guest? Can't you just go and receive it?"
Bailixu replied: "This is really bad, it's Senior Brother Huo from Danxia Palace."
"Oh." Ling Bufei remembered, "He got out of trouble?"
Baili Xu nodded: "Ning Yanzhi succeeded to the throne and released him."
Ling Bufei didn't hesitate: "Invite him in!"
Not long after, Huo Chongxiao came.
He looked a little thinner and his eyebrows were slightly gloomy, but he was in good spirits.
"Brother Huo." Ling Bufei stood up to greet him and asked him to take a seat.
Huo Chongxiao clasped his fists and said bluntly: "I came here this time to ask about Miss Bai's current situation and to pick up my junior sister."
Ling Bufei made tea and said, "Since Brother Huo has come out of death row, he should know everything."
Huo Chongxiao hesitated and said: "Senior Brother Ning did tell me, but I always have some hope in my heart. Can Miss Bai still be saved? With her determination, as long as there is a chance, she will stick to her true intention.
yes."
Ling Bufei paused, and after a while, he poured tea for Huo Chongxiao: "You are the first person outside the Wuji Sect who has said this to me."
The so-called world is so cold. Bai Mengjin has made so many contributions to the Immortal Alliance in these years. From Liuyue City and the Spiritual Cultivation Conference to Xuanyanmen and Xuanbing Palace, he has saved countless people's lives. In the end, they found out that she had become a demon, and they all avoided her.
It is impossible to say that he has no grudge in his heart.
Huo Chongxiao heard the meaning of his words and said warmly: "Everyone knows the merits of Miss Bai. It's just that the Immortal Sect has been harmed by monsters for many years, so it is inevitable that the reaction will be bigger. In addition, their status is limited and they cannot speak out."
Ling Bufei smiled faintly and asked him: "Then what are Brother Huo's plans? Meng Jin is regarded as the Demon Lord. This is absolutely true. And your head Ning of Danxia Palace has already made up his mind to eliminate the demon.
Master takes revenge."
Huo Chongxiao replied: "Senior Brother Ning rescued me and promised to clear my master's grievances. Naturally, I will help him revive the mountain. As for Miss Bai, if there is a way to save me, I will try my best. Senior Brother Ning is not
If Miss Bai is really saved, I will definitely persuade you to be unreasonable."
Ling Bufei didn't have any hope, but he still accepted his kindness and said: "To be honest with Brother Huo, Meng Jin's so-called demonic possession is very suspicious. However, the underworld has been sealed, so there is nothing we can do for the moment. I have arranged for people to investigate slowly. If there is a chance,
Rescue her again."
Huo Chongxiao understood and said: "If you can use me in any way, please ask Master Ling to greet you." After thinking about it, he added, "I will keep it secret about Miss Bai."
Ling Bufei nodded in agreement and said the second thing: "Miss Yue is staying at the foot of the mountain. I'll ask A Xu to take you there."
Huo Chongxiao thanked him profusely and followed Baili Xu down the mountain.
Ling Bufei continued to handle official duties.
Unexpectedly, not long after, the two of them turned around again, this time taking Yue Yunqiao with them.
Ling Bufei asked curiously: "Brother Huo, what else can you do?"
Huo Chongxiao looked helpless: "My junior sister refuses to leave."
Ling Bufei raised his eyebrows.
Yue Yunqiao stepped forward and saluted: "Sect Master Ling, I have been greatly favored by Junior Sister Bai. Now that she is in trouble, how can I just leave? Senior Brother is fine, and I feel at ease. I have Senior Brother to take care of the matter of clearing Master's grievances, so
I want to stay and help rescue Junior Sister Bai."
She has been taken care of by her senior brothers since she was a child and rarely decides anything by herself. This time she mustered up the courage.
Ling Bufei was silent for a moment and said: "Miss Yue, after the Demon Sealing War, no Demon Lord appeared in the world. You may not be able to help with this matter. You should go back to the sect and practice hard."
Yue Yunqiao's attitude was very resolute: "I have thought a lot these days. When it comes to cultivation, I am actually a Nascent Soul, so why can't I handle things? After thinking about it, I still rely too much on my senior brother. It just so happens that this matter
It’s not convenient for Senior Brother to come forward, so let me do it! I may not be as good at fighting, but I am not bad at the Dan Fu Formation and other heretics, and I will definitely be able to do my part.”
Ling Bufei was moved, so he looked at Huo Chongxiao, and heard him say: "What junior sister said makes sense. I take care of everything, and when I finally can't take care of it, it's time to let her experience it on her own."
Ling Bufei knew that they had made up their minds, so he didn't say much more and said, "In that case, I have something to ask Miss Yue for help."
"Sect Master Ling, please speak."
"Go back to Danxia Palace and look for ancient books."
Both of them were stunned.
Ling Bufei continued: "As far as we know, this is not the only time when a jade-hardened body became possessed by a demon. Unfortunately, the records within the Wuji Sect are incomplete. Nowadays, the relationship between the two factions is tense, and it is difficult for us to negotiate with Head Ning, so we asked Miss Yue to find someone.
Check the collection of books in Danxia Palace to see if there is any relevant content."
Yue Yunqiao and Huo Chongxiao looked at each other.
This is easy and does not harm the interests of Danxia Palace.
"Okay. Is this the only thing? You're welcome, Master Ling, I really want to do my best."
"When the investigation is completed, Miss Yue can ask herself to be stationed in Ziyun Palace. My uncle and uncle will investigate the Huangquan Barrier, and there will be some chores to do."
This was real help, and Yue Yunqiao felt relieved.
"After checking the ancient books in the sect, I will go to Ziyun Palace as soon as possible."
After the matter was finished, Huo Chongxiao and Yue Yunqiao left together.
Baili Xu looked at their backs and said to Ling Bufei: "Sir, you see there are still many people who remember Miss Bai."
Ling Bufei's eyes were filled with sadness and joy, and he smiled softly.
He calmed down and asked, "Is there any news from Qifeng Valley?"
Bailixu replied: "Miss Ji has successfully returned to the valley, and the rest of the matter will have to wait."
Ling Bufei nodded. The key to entering the Underworld is Ji Xingge. This matter cannot be rushed. It doesn't matter, a practitioner has a long time and he can afford to wait.
------------------
In Qifeng Valley, Ji Xingge avoided the guarding elders and sneaked into the Patriarch's Hall.
There are many restrictions here, making it difficult for outsiders to move forward. Fortunately, she had the token in hand and it didn't take much effort to get in.
"Hey! I was smart. I took advantage of my father's drunkenness and took the token. Let me see what the treasure of Zhengu is..."
As she murmured, she touched the portrait of the ancestor hanging in the temple.
Just as she opened it, a figure was revealed inside, which startled her: "Ah! Why is there someone...Dad?"
Ji Xingge was dumbfounded, looking at his father behind the portrait of his ancestor.
Ji Nanfeng snorted, blew his beard and glared: "You girl, you are too courageous! You dare to think about the treasure of Zhengu. Do you really think that you have done it perfectly? If I don't teach you a lesson today, I don't know what kind of trouble you will cause in the future.
Come!"
With that said, he showed his whip and was about to whip it.
Ji Xingge was so frightened that he ran away and shouted: "Dad, calm down! I didn't want to steal, I just took a look! Just take a look!"
