This incident happened so quickly that the three of them didn't even have time to react.
Looking again, there was no one in the place, only the faint yellow sand was left.
…
After burning the incense, three figures appeared outside the barrier.
It was Ling Xuewei and the other three, but now they had disguised themselves as those three people.
Fortunately, the three people were unprepared, so they were given the opportunity to make a surprise attack. They directly threw the three people into the black hole of Gongsun Yan's space. After finding out the password to enter the barrier, they simply knocked them unconscious.
After delivering the password, the three of them successfully entered the barrier.
"Twenty-three minutes, the helmsman has arrived——!"
The three of them followed the people who came to greet them and walked in without looking away. Along the way, they saw many people dressed similarly to them, but none of them spoke to each other, which made Ling Xuewei sigh in relief.
"I think the connection between the sub-rudder and the sub-rudder is not close, so we also have a chance."
The three of them looked normal until they were taken to a hall.
There are already many people in the hall. Looking around, there are at least a hundred people.
"The white-robed elder has arrived——!"
An old man with a white beard appeared, and the pavilion suddenly became quiet. Everyone saluted, "See the white-robed elder!"
Ling Xuewei and the other three also saluted, and the old man in white robe waved, "Everyone, get up. I have called you here today to announce something important!"
"Elder, please give me your instructions! We are duty-bound to serve the Diming Palace!"
"that is!"
"Everyone, please be quiet. I'd like to ask someone before me."
As he said this, a ball of black energy suddenly appeared in the hall, and then the black energy turned into a person.
I saw that the man had red lines on his face, and his features were male and female, and there was no distinction between male and female. There was an evil aura all over his body, especially his hands, which had sharp black nails and strange red tattoos on his arms.
It looks weird and terrifying.
Ling Xuewei felt a very uncomfortable feeling from the stranger, even more so than the old man in white robe.
"Old man in white robe, is this the person you are looking for for me?"
The voice was high-pitched, revealing the femininity of a woman, and the tone was disdainful.
"Who do you dare to be so rude to our elders!"
A person below said angrily, but before he finished speaking, the person flew out directly!
A black energy grabbed the man's neck and lifted him up, slowly coming to the tattooed man. His legs were struggling in mid-air, and then a horrifying scene happened.
It was as if the man's essence and blood had been sucked dry, and he gradually turned into a mummy.
The man didn't even have time to shout.
There was a dead silence in the hall.
Everyone was shocked by his terrifying methods.
"boom!"
The black energy threw the incoming man away, and the tattooed man snorted disdainfully, "Can you enter my underworld palace like this? Old man in white robe, you are doing your job better and better."
"Please forgive me, Protector!" The old man in white robe knelt down hastily with a frightened expression on his face.
Protector!
Everyone in the hall was shocked.
Dharma protector? This person is actually a Dharma protector?
The ones with a higher level than the elders in the Diming Palace are the four guardians. Above them are only the priests and the Dark Emperor. The four guardians usually appear and disappear, and their strength is unfathomable. I didn’t expect to see this legendary figure today.
character?
"I've seen the protector!"
Everyone in the pavilion knelt down in unison, not daring to say a single lie.
Ling Xuewei and the other three also knelt down along with everyone else. It seemed that they were at the right time today to catch up with this kind of time.
However, the protector...is the same character as the old man I met in Sunset City?
The old man alone was very troublesome. Although she had not fought with him that day, she could feel that the old man was definitely stronger than her. There were four people of this level, and they were only the protectors of the Underworld Palace...
Ling Xuewei deeply felt the terror of the Underworld Palace's power.
The red-striped protector shocked everyone as soon as he appeared, and everything went smoothly after that.
"This Dharma Lord is here under the order of the priest. There is news that in three days, an ancient secret realm will be opened thousands of miles away. There are countless treasures and magic weapons in the secret realm. The priest has the order to seize it.
No one is allowed to enter the secret realm. Now the major sects and families have not received the news, so we must seize the opportunity!"
"Ancient secret realm?"
"Very good!"
Everyone knows that encountering an ancient secret realm is a rare opportunity. Maybe you will encounter some great opportunity!
"In order not to alert others, only the deputy helmsman and helmsman or above are involved in this operation. Recuperate today and set off tomorrow!"
The red-striped protector said, waving to the person behind him, "Verify the identities of everyone present and make arrangements."
"My subordinate understands."
Ling Xuewei noticed that Gongsun Yan beside her suddenly trembled and his breath suddenly froze!
Ling Xuewei keenly sensed a murderous aura coming from Gongsun Yan, which was extremely strong!
Could it be...
Her eyes fell behind the red-striped protector, and she saw that the attendant was unremarkable, but his eyes occasionally glowed with a sinister look.
She raised her hand and put it on Gongsun Yan's shoulder, speaking into her ears, "Don't be impulsive."
Gongsun Yan paused and his murderous aura slowly subsided. Ling Xuewei breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.
Just for a moment, Ling Xuewei felt an evil gaze coming towards her.
It's the red-striped protector!
Just a trace of murderous intent was detected by him, what a keen sense!
Ling Xuewei froze, sweating faintly on her back.
"Tell me your names and the helmsman's token, take it out!"
At this time, the inspector happened to find three people in front of them.
Token?
Oops, they didn't find any token before?
"I'm talking to you! Where is your token?"
The unusual movement here has attracted the attention of others, and the red-striped protector looked at him with confusion.
The atmosphere is weird.
The hands under Ling Xuewei's sleeves gradually clenched, and her whole body tensed up, ready to go.
"Sorry, sorry, this guy was so nervous when he came back to the helm for the first time. These are our tokens. The three of us are from Qingxi No. 23 Helms. Please take a look." Gongsun Yan beside him took out three tokens and said respectfully.
Pass it over.
The man took it, glanced at it and asked doubtfully, "Why are you here with all this token?"
"It's not like these two little ones are careless. I was afraid that one of them would accidentally lose the token on the way, so I took care of it for you!" Gongsun Yan responded calmly.
The person who inquired was very disdainful because of his cowardly and inexperienced appearance.
The rankings of each branch rudder in the Diming Palace are based on strength. Twenty-three rudders can be said to be at the bottom.
Ling Xuewei will shrink her head and vividly interpret a little person who has never seen the world.
The man snorted coldly, then pointed the token toward the inquiry crystal. In a moment, the crystal lit up, and then threw the token over, "Next!"
Ling Xuewei breathed a sigh of relief, it was passed. Then she felt the red-striped protector's eyes move away, looked at Gongsun Yan and Wu Yi, and left the hall.
"You three, this is your room. If you need anything, please let me know."
