Long Shitian's face was gloomy, he looked at the black shadow and remained silent.
a long time.
He then said: "I really didn't expect...it's you." The black figure did not look at Long Shitian, but bowed respectfully to Ye Qiu: "Young Master Helm, I'm late, please come down."
Forgive me."
Isn’t it the old patriarch of the Shui Tribe or someone else?
"Old patriarch?"
Ye Qiu licked his lips.
The old patriarch raised his head and smiled slightly. The wrinkles on his face were wrinkled, like a bright chrysanthemum, and he smiled so flatteringly.
"Young Commander, it's me."
"Gan!"
Ye Qiu cursed secretly.
It’s really this guy! It’s unbelievable! But Ye Qiu actually had his suspicions.
Because this old man has a knack for playing porcelain, especially in a place like Longshui where I'll kill you and you kill me at every turn, he actually dares to play porcelain, but he hasn't been beaten to death to this day.
Is it really something that a useless person can do?
Moreover, he took several Bai Miao shamans with him and traveled thousands of miles across Longshui to reach the witch sect. In the end, no one was missing.
Is this really what a useless leader of a small tribe can do?
You must know that there are tribes that are stronger than the Water Tribe.
Such as the Sword Clan, the Knife Clan, the Force Clan, etc.! They are much stronger than the Water Clan! However, they were not dead but injured on the way here.
Of course, a large part of the reason for this must be attributed to Ye Qiu himself. If he hadn't started doing business along the way, there would have been more tribes coming to the Witch Cult... But that can't be said.
The tribes that finally reached the Witch Cult are actually considered to be outstanding tribes.
The water tribe is an outlier among them.
So weak, but it happened to come.
Others thought it was because the Shui tribe was really too weak that no one was targeting them.
Now, Ye Qiu understood.
Why didn't anyone kill this old guy?
The reason is simple.
Because there is no way he can beat him! The aura of this old guy is very obvious now, as obvious as a light on in the dark night.
The old patriarch of the Shui Tribe is actually a warrior, and a master at the pinnacle! Now that I think about it, it is all nonsense that the Shui Tribe can only hold on to its last bit of territory by occupying natural dangers.
I'm afraid anyone who dares to trouble the Shui Tribe has been killed by this old guy... So now, the more flattering the old patriarch's smile is, the more Ye Qiu feels that this old guy is insidious.
The corner of his mouth twitched: "Didn't you say that you are not a wizard?"
The old patriarch blinked and said with a smile: "Young Commander, I did say that I am no longer a wizard, but... I also never said that I am not a warrior."
Look at this, it's so shameless! Ye Qiu took a breath: "Oh, I should have figured it out a long time ago. How could Hongmen let a loser become the helmsman of the branch? Only the master who has reached the top can
Only those who are qualified to serve as the helmsman of the sub-rudder must be the kind of person who is particularly strong and has reached the pinnacle. Tian Huatian is the one, and so are you."
The old patriarch coughed: "My subordinates didn't mean to hide anything from you, Mr. Commander. After all, in the eyes of everyone, I am just a useless person. A useless person suddenly turned into a warrior, and a warrior who has reached the pinnacle of the realm. I'm sure
Someone will be watching you."
Ye Qiu nodded in understanding.
Indeed, if word got out that a top-level heavenly witch had become a top-level warrior after depleting his spiritual energy, I am afraid everyone would go crazy and want to hang the old patriarch up to find out his secrets.
Do you really think wizards look down on warriors?
Don’t you want to practice both witchcraft and martial arts?
Of course not, mainly because a person's energy is limited, and talent often only accounts for one of them.
"So, you were the one who made the most mysterious move that night?"
Ye Qiu thought of what happened before.
The old patriarch nodded.
"And in that underground maze, I once heard a voice warning me that I was in danger. Was it you?"
The old patriarch still nodded.
Ye Qiu breathed out: "So, in fact, we don't need to rescue you at all?"
The old patriarch smiled shyly: "Young President, I didn't know you were coming at that time. I had already ran out on my own. I met you outside, so I had to go back."
Ye Qiu's mouth twitched again.
He felt very strange how the water tribe people survived in that underground maze.
You must know that all the captured people from other tribes were already dead and were used for experiments. In the end, only Cao Xing was left alive.
The only exception is Jiang Yurou.
Because she was Li Tianshen's fiancée, she was kept by Long Shitian.
Now that I think about it, the old patriarch was not trapped at all! "No wonder, when I left at that time, I went to the cell and found that there was no one in it. So you didn't actually give up your martial arts?"
Long Shitian said gloomily.
The old patriarch then looked at Long Shitian, remained silent for a long time, and then said with emotion: "...how do you maintain yourself? You are more than a hundred years old, and you actually look better than me, an old man in his fifties or sixties.
Want to be young?
Is it because of the holy dragon’s essence and blood?
Why am I not having any effect?”
Ye Qiu had a dark look on his face, is now the time to talk about this?
You've been brewing for so long, and you just came up with this sentence?
But then he was stunned.
What does the old patriarch mean? He also has the blood of the holy dragon?
Long Shitian had obviously thought of this, and narrowed his eyes: "So, you abandoned your martial arts, killed your holy dragon, and took a drop of its blood essence, so that you could become a warrior?"
The old patriarch chuckled: "Do you think it's possible?"
Long Shitian was silent for a moment, then suddenly said: "Impossible. Since you dare to destroy yourself, you must have discovered the hidden dangers of the holy dragon's essence and blood."
The old patriarch sighed: "Yes, this hidden danger is too great. Becoming someone else's slave is actually no different from death, so I really committed suicide at that time. However, it is difficult for a wizard to become a warrior."
It’s really a bit old, even if I have talent, so guess who helped me.”
Long Shitian took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Is it that guy Murong Ye?"
The old patriarch chuckled: "Yes, that guy Murong Ye found me and said he could provide me with some safe blood essence to change my physique and make it easier for me to cultivate Qi."
"What is his purpose for doing this?"
The old patriarch shrugged: "How do I know? I'm not Murong Ye, and when I asked him why he wanted to help me, he didn't tell me the reason.
But, I can guess some of the reasons, they probably thought of me as a back-up, but his disappearance was too sudden and everything was not arranged."
Long Shitian narrowed his eyes slightly and said coldly: "Why didn't I see at that time that Murong Ye had so many schemes?"
The old patriarch smiled: "Haha, are you surprised?
Do you want to guess whether that guy left any other backup plans?"
