The stream gurgled by, swaying like silk on the fresh, moist grassland. The east wind blew, bringing a hint of coolness to the warmth.
In the distance, green mountains are rolling up and down, standing proudly under the blue sky. The mist is like a transparent veil surrounding the mountain peaks, like a fairyland on earth.
However, at this moment, there was a group of people in the valley who were in no mood to appreciate this scenery.
Zhong Zihao led all the geniuses from Luoyuan Territory to wait here. Besides two sisters, Zhong Zihan and Chen Liling, Jiang Yuan was following closely behind, ready to listen to any orders.
Ever since Xia Danming, three great masters of the void realm, and the Shadow Palace were sent out to inquire about the news, their group has been waiting here for four days.
"Brother, grandpa and the others should be okay?"
Zhong Zihan has not cried in the past few days, but it is not difficult to guess from her red and swollen eyes that she must have secretly shed a lot of tears.
"Don't worry, Zihan. The Zhong family has gone through a lot of ups and downs, and this time will be no exception. They will all be fine." Zhong Zihao rubbed his sister's forehead and comforted her.
Having said that, among everyone, he was perhaps more worried than anyone else.
The fall of Luoyuan Domain is an ironclad fact. What is unclear is whether it is the Gods or the Demons who are taking action this time. And the most worrying thing is that the top leaders of the major sects are missing. Is it a breakout or a demon?
Captured by the enemy?
If it's the former, it's okay. As long as they are still around, they are a fighting force that cannot be ignored, and everything has a glimmer of hope. But if it is the latter, then the problem is much more serious.
But to capture all the top leaders of these super sects alive, I believe that even the Duanlei Palace, Xingyue Palace and Jiugong Sect can't do it unless the gods or demons behind them take action.
If things really come to that point, judging from the strength of the powerful people in the Jueshen Alliance, it will undoubtedly be a drop in the bucket.
"Boohoo!"
Just as he was thinking hard, a sound broke through the air from behind on his left.
The Luoyuan Domain at this moment is full of dangers, and there are soldiers everywhere. Even with the strength of this group of people, they don't dare to be careless. As soon as they heard the strange noise, everyone immediately became alert.
But when they saw the face of the visitor clearly, they all let go of their hearts in their chests.
"Palace Master Situ!" Everyone said hello with clasped fists.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Situ Miao dodged and landed, nodded to everyone, and then said to Zhong Zihao: "I've seen the young master!"
It was only then that everyone saw clearly that he was holding another person in his hand. This person was in a coma and was not young, about fifty years old.
Zhong Zihao took a second look at this person's face and felt that he was familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him before.
"Have you found anything?" He turned to Situ Miao and asked, after all, this matter is what everyone is most concerned about at the moment.
"Back to the Young Master, my subordinates went to Xingyue Palace and hid there for half a night. But the other party seemed to be no different from usual. The sect was running in an orderly manner. The disciples under the sect continued to practice when they should practice, and retreated normally when they needed to." Situ.
Miao replied.
Zhong Zihao did not urge him. He did not believe that the power of the Void Realm was sent out once, and this was the only news. In any case, Situ Miao was once the leader of the overlord of the Endless Sea, how could he not have the ability to distinguish?
Sure enough, next, he said with a solemn face: "However, my subordinate discovered something incredible."
"You tell me!" Zhong Zihao's eyes flashed, knowing that the point was coming.
"According to your information, Young Master, Xingyue Palace is one of the super sects in the Luoyuan Domain, and there should be at least several Void Realm experts stationed there. But I did not detect the aura of warriors of this level there."
When Situ Miao said this, his expression became solemn.
"Um?"
Zhong Zihao frowned slightly. This is indeed abnormal. How could the dignified Xingyue Palace not even have the power of the void realm? Why would the situation mentioned by Situ Miao happen? Unless... they have important matters that require people with this level of cultivation to go out.
So, what kind of major event would make them unwilling to keep even one Void Realm master? It seems to be self-evident.
Thinking of this, he glanced sideways at Jiang Yuan and saw the latter nodded slightly. It was obvious that the two of them had thought of something.
"What happened to him?" Zhong Zihao turned around, pointed at the warrior brought by Situ Miao, and asked.
"hey-hey!"
When he mentioned this, Situ Miao had a strange look on his old face, and said: "Just when my subordinates were about to leave, this guy suddenly came out of the Xingyue Palace. There must be nothing good going on in the middle of the night, so I
Just followed him."
"About ten miles out of the sect, I found a scantily clad woman waiting in front of me. After listening to the conversation between the two, I realized that the woman was a disciple of the Xingyue Palace. In order to get better treatment within the sect, she
He did not hesitate to use his body to seduce this person. But this guy was called Deacon Cang by that woman."
"When the two of them were about to get into trouble, I showed up and killed the shameless disciple. I wanted to kill this man together, but out of sight and out of mind, I suddenly discovered that he actually had the cultivation level of Tianji Realm.
My subordinates have just captured him. Perhaps with his status in Xingyue Palace, we can get some information from him."
After Situ Miao finished speaking, he saw Zhong Zihan, Chen Liling and other women's eyes widening with anger, wishing they could go up and kill Deacon Cang immediately. If Zhong Zihao hadn't stopped him in time, perhaps this guy would have met the King of Hell without knowing it.
However, after hearing that this person was Deacon Cang, Zhong Zihao seemed to have remembered something, and his huge soul power spread out and enveloped this person.
After a while, he seemed a little surprised: "It's really hard to find anything even if you try hard to find it. It takes no effort at all to get here!"
It turned out that Deacon Cang was the one who severely injured Zhong Zihao and caused him to fall into the foggy forest.
At that time, he was only at the eighth level of the Juyuan Realm, but he was chased by two Sea Transformation Realm warriors from the Duanlei Palace. When they reached the edge of the Mist Forest, the three of them were scrupulous and did not dare to let go.
When Zhong Zihao was off guard, Deacon Cang, who was already at the late stage of the Sea Transformation Realm at that time, suddenly arrived and punched him into the forest of mist with all his strength.
This person was too fast, and his cultivation level was beyond him by a huge level. As a result, Zhong Zihao was unable to see the face of the person coming. He only heard others calling him "Deacon Cang" when he fell.
No wonder he felt quite familiar when he just met this person. It turned out that he had met an "old friend".
"Wake him up!" Zhong Zihao frowned. This theory of cause and effect is indeed reasonable: it's not that he won't retaliate, it's just that the time has not come yet.
As the master of Wuhen Palace, Situ Miao was an old fox. Seeing Zhong Zihao's expression, he had a guess in his mind. He woke up Deacon Cang from his deep sleep with a raised hand and kicked him to the ground.
"Hey...ah! Who are you?"
Deacon Cang had just woken up, and his mind was still immersed in the scene before he fainted. Suddenly he saw a large group of people looking at him, and he was shocked.
"Deacon Cang, do we meet again?" Zhong Zihao knelt down with a smile on his face, which was extremely kind.
"Who are you? I don't know you!" Deacon Cang looked confused. He has seen too many young people and old men like this, so he can't even remember who you are.
"Deacon Cang, do you still remember that four or five years ago, at the entrance of the Mist Forest, you personally beat a young man to serious injuries and fell into it." Zhong Zihao spoke softly, followed the instructions and gave many clues.
"Misty Forest? Boy?"
Deacon Cang then fell into memories. Suddenly his face changed drastically, and he looked like he had seen a ghost. He was horrified: "You... you... you are Zhong Zihao, and you are not dead yet?"
