Ling Wan'er turned her head and glanced at Liu Hao.
She actually wanted to say that the real monster is next to me.
This monster like me was cultivated by him.
However, Ling Wan'er could not say these words after all.
So, she just frowned and said nothing.
"By the way, it seems that the sect master has something urgent to do with you. Since you have come out, I will contact him immediately and ask him to come over."
Seeing that Ling Wan'er didn't speak, Wang Qing spoke again.
"Elder Wang, no need."
Liu Hao quickly stopped him and said, "The sect leader is on his way and should arrive soon."
"Oh, then I'll wait outside."
Wang Qing nodded and said, "Don't come out, just stay here."
Ling Wan'er frowned and said in confusion, "Why? Elder Wang, can't we go out and wait?"
"There are many people outside now looking for Liu Hao."
Wang Qing smiled bitterly and said, "The sect master has already said hello before. If you come out, you can't leave here easily. You must get his order before he can let you out."
"But……"
"It's okay, Elder Wang. Please go outside and help us. We'll wait here."
When Ling Wan'er was about to say something else, Liu Hao had already grabbed Ling Wan'er.
Wang Qing nodded, stopped talking nonsense, turned and left.
Ling Wan'er was very dissatisfied and said, "Brother Hao, we finally came out, can we really just sit here and wait?"
"Let's wait until your father comes."
Liu Hao shook his head and said, "The Huo Ling Sect is definitely in big trouble now. We can't cause any more trouble to our father."
Ling Wan'er said dissatisfied, "We are just going out, why are we causing trouble?"
"The Star Flame Mineral Vein is the most important mineral vein discovered in the Third Domain. No matter how much trouble the Tianyang Sect makes, it is impossible to attack the Star Flame Mineral Vein."
Liu Hao explained, "Even the two deacons of Tianyang Sect cannot bear the price of destroying the Xingyan Mine."
"Because this will annoy the people in the entire third domain, and when the time comes, they will be left with nothing to eat."
"Naturally, people from the third domain will never allow them to mess around."
"And now, this mineral vein is still in the hands of our Fire Spirit Sect."
"As long as the Fire Spirit Sect doesn't disappear, the Xingyan Mine is ours, and we are safe here."
"Even if they knew we were here, they wouldn't dare to mess around."
"What's more, when we came here, we came here in secret, and no one else knew about it."
"However, don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of what happens."
"What if there is someone guarding outside?"
"Once we go out and are discovered by them, it will be difficult for your father to come over."
"Others will definitely try their best to keep him out of the Star Flame Mine."
"This is tantamount to forcing us to show up."
"What's more, even if your father can escape, as long as we are locked, they can stay here and guard us."
"We can't stay here forever, can we?"
"So, let's listen to Elder Wang and don't be willful."
After hearing Liu Hao's explanation, Ling Wan'er was still a little dissatisfied, but in the end she nodded and said no more.
In fact, she didn't really have to go out.
However, after finally coming out of seclusion with Liu Hao, we wanted to go out for a walk and get some fresh air.
The environment outside is obviously much better than this cave.
…
It's not too long.
About half an hour later.
Wang Qing took Ling Xuan, the leader of the Huo Ling Sect, into the cave again.
"metropolitan!"
"Father!"
Liu Hao and Ling Wan'er greeted him.
Lingxuan nodded, turned to Ling Wan'er, and asked, "I heard from Elder Wang that your strength has improved a lot?"
"Well, I now have the strength of Yuan Sheng realm, and I vaguely feel like my Dantian has been summoned by something."
Ling Wan'er said, "Father, I think as long as you give me some more time, I will definitely be able to help you."
Lingxuan smiled slightly, touched Ling Wan'er's head, and said with a smile, "As long as you have this intention, let's talk about the rest after you really have the strength."
Ling Wan'er nodded, "Father, don't worry, Wan'er will definitely work harder to practice."
Lingxuan nodded and said nothing more to Ling Wan'er. Instead, he turned to Wang Qing and said, "Elder Wang, take Wan'er out first and wait. I have something to discuss with Ah Hao."
Wang Qing frowned and asked, "Sect Master, if Wan'er goes out, will she be exposed?"
"Don't worry." Lingxuan replied, "I have my own sense of proportion."
"yes!"
Wang Qing nodded and said to Ling Wan'er, "Wan'er, let's go!"
Ling Wan'er was a little dissatisfied, but she also knew that she couldn't be willful.
He nodded obediently and left with Wang Qing.
Here, Wang Qingling and Ling Wan'er left.
Lingxuan's face darkened.
Said, "Ah Hao, the Huo Ling Sect is now on the verge of collapse. I have already planned to disband the Huo Ling Sect."
Hearing this, Liu Hao's face darkened, his brows furrowed slightly, and he said, "Is it already this serious?"
"Now, except for Longyang Sect and Diyang Sect, which are still willing to talk to us, all the forces in the entire human region have almost stopped paying attention to us."
Lingxuan replied, "Moreover, even these two forces don't dare to help us openly."
"In other words, our Huo Ling Sect actually has no room for survival."
"If we don't disband, the Huo Ling Sect's assets won't be able to support such consumption."
"Besides, with so many disciples following us, we can't keep them hiding in the sect like this, right?"
"I've been holding on for half a year. It's a slap in the face of Xiao Qing and He Zhan."
"That's enough."
After hearing this, Liu Hao asked, "Is there any other way?"
"As far as our capabilities are concerned, they are basically gone."
Lingxuan replied, "However, the Diyang Sect has said that they can help us, but the certainty is not too great."
Then he said, "Moreover, they still need you to agree to join the Diyang Sect before they are willing to take action."
Hearing this, Liu Hao frowned slightly.
He said, "Sect Master, you said before that Diyang Sect and Longyang Sect are still willing to pay attention to us. What do you mean?"
"Here's the thing."
Lingxuan immediately said, "During your retreat, Hermione from the Long Yang Sect came to see me. When our Huo Ling Sect ran into trouble, the Long Yang Sect said they could help us."
"Whenever we need help, they are willing to help."
"Later, I told them the seriousness of the matter and met their sect leader He Tianlei."
"In the end, the answers from He Tianlei and Longyang Sect quite surprised me."
"They said they could help us whenever we needed it."
"In addition to helping our Huo Ling Sect fight to the death, he can agree to anything else."
"As for the consequences..."
After a pause, he said, "According to what they mean, they are already miserable now. No matter how miserable they are, it will only be disbanding the Longyang Sect and they won't be any worse, so they won't care too much.
"
"Actually, I also know that they are playing the emotional card, thinking of trying to win over you and our Fire Spirit Sect."
"But, no matter what, their reversal of stance requires great courage."
"It really makes me happy."
"So, I didn't ridicule them or expose them. I just said that I didn't want to implicate them and would not cooperate with them for the time being."
"If there is a chance, let's talk about cooperation."
Hearing this, Liu Hao nodded.
Said, "What about the Diyang Sect?"
"The situation on the Diyang Sect's side also surprised me."
Lingxuan replied, "The person sent by the Diyang Sect is their great elder Meng Hu."
"It's the person who told you that he will come to you again when resources are on the battlefield."
"He found me and told me that the Diyang Sect can help our Huoling Sect, but the prerequisite is that you must join the Diyang Sect."
"Furthermore, he can't guarantee that the Huo Ling Sect will be completely free from any trouble. He only said that he will try his best to discuss it with the Tianyang Sect."
"Moreover, he also told me clearly some of the situation of Tianyang Sect."
"He said that He Zhan, Xiao Qing, and Gu Xingyuan are actually the fifth elders of Tianyang Sect."
"Gu Xingyuan didn't hook up with Tianyang Daozu at all."
"I haven't even met him in person."
"And He Zhan and Xiao Qing's status in Tianyang Sect is not particularly high."
"Of course, it can't be considered too low. That's why they can use the tiger skin of Tianyang Sect as a banner to target us."
"The person we can find from the Diyang Sect is said to be the second elder of the Tianyang Sect. However, this second elder has been in seclusion for many years and has never cared much about the affairs of the Tianyang Sect."
"Whether he will agree to it or not, he is not sure."
"Furthermore, such a small matter is related to the face of Tianyang Sect. The second elder may give some face to the fifth elder."
"So, he said he could only help, but he may not be able to succeed."
"Finally, he told me that no matter whether you agree or not, they want to see you and talk to you."
Hearing this, Liu Hao frowned.
But he didn't answer immediately.
The situation at Longyang Sect is a little easier to say.
With Hermione here, he didn't have to worry about what kind of tricks the Longyang Sect's people would play.
Furthermore, even if people like He Tianlei really want to play some tricks, he is not afraid of them.
He just doesn't understand why the people of Diyang Sect care so much about him?
The Tianyang Sect has already turned against himself to such an extent that the Diyang Sect is still thinking of trying to win over him. Moreover, he also said that even if he does not agree to join the Diyang Sect, they still want to see him. Why is this?
"Ah Hao, they say you are a very extraordinary person."
Lingxuan said again, "The Diyang Sect doesn't want to be your enemy. On the contrary, they really want to get to know you. If possible, maybe we can be a friend."
Then he said, "That's why I was anxious to find you before."
After hearing this, Liu Hao asked Lingxuan, "Sect Master, do you think I should see them?"
"I think we should meet!"
Lingxuan said, "Actually, I have been thinking about this matter for a long time."
"After much thought, I think it would be best for you to meet them."
"Even if they have other purposes, as long as you don't cooperate, they can't do anything to you."
"Besides, as long as we meet here, they won't, let alone dare not, mess around."
"On the contrary, if they have no other purpose and just want to make friends with you, then it is definitely a good thing for you."
"Even if you don't agree to join the Diyang Sect in the end, maybe they can give you some help?"
"As far as the current situation is concerned, the Fire Spirit Sect has ceased to exist and cannot help you."
"But, the Diyang Sect can do it."
"Moreover, I have actually made a decision here, thinking of handing over the mining rights of the 'Xingyan Mine' to the Diyang Sect."
"In exchange for some disciples of the sect joining the Diyang Sect, let them give enough help to the disciples of our sect."
After hearing this, Liu Hao fell silent.
Lingxuan has already thought out his retreat, which means that the dissolution of the Huo Ling Sect is inevitable.
And now Liu Hao is obviously unable to help Lingxuan.
To put it mildly, if he went to kill He Qing and Xiao Zhan at this time, it might even cause a strong backlash from the Tianyang Sect.
By then, even Ling Wan'er and Ling Xuan may be in danger.
So, after thinking for a moment, Liu Hao said, "Okay, then let them come over and I will meet them."
Lingxuan nodded immediately, "Okay, I'll notify them right away."
…
Two hours later.
At nightfall.
Yang Renyi, the leader of the Diyang Sect, and Meng Hu, the great elder, took advantage of the darkness and came to the Xingyan Mine.
Liu Hao and Ling Xuan were slightly surprised when they saw the two people coming.
"I didn't expect that Sect Leader Yang would actually come too."
Lingxuan spoke first and said, "I thought you would not show up easily due to the relationship between Tianyang Sect and us."
As the leader of the Diyang Sect, even if he does not cooperate with the people of the Tianyang Sect, he should not go against the Tianyang Sect.
If people knew that Yang Renyi, the leader of the Diyang Sect, took the initiative to make friends with the Huoling Sect, what would others think?
Who knows, someone from Tianyang Sect will come to trouble Yang Renyi the next day.
"I'm very curious about this little guy and really want to see him." Yang Renyi smiled slightly, turned to Liu Hao and said, "So, I chose to come here at night."
Liu Hao quickly raised his hands and said, "Liu Hao has met Master Yang."
"Okay, don't be polite."
Yang Renyi waved his hand and said, "According to what I have observed, you are a very arrogant and very scheming person."
"Such politeness is usually polite on the surface, but in the heart, it may not be very polite to me."
"For others, I may care more about their politeness, but for you..."
As he spoke, he shook his head and said, "I really don't care too much. Because what I care more about is, what are you thinking in your heart?"
