Ji Tianxing and Ji Ke were sitting in the front seats, with spiritual fruits, spiritual tea and pastries placed on the table in front of them.
Although, these things were so common to them that they didn't even think of tasting them.
But these spiritual fruits and spiritual tea are already the most precious treasures in the Shenhui Sect, and even Lin Burang is reluctant to taste them.
Lin Burang sat at the front seat on the left side of the hall, accompanying him with a low eyebrow.
The elders and deacons were not even qualified to sit down, so they all stood respectfully in the hall, not daring to make any noise.
When Ji Tianxing saw everyone's fearful posture, he said calmly: "You don't have to be so nervous. I came to Shenhuizong this time to find out something that happened a hundred years ago.
After I investigate clearly, I will leave and will not stay in your sect for a long time."
"What happened a hundred years ago?" Lin Burang frowned slightly, vaguely guessing something, and asked cautiously: "Master Ji, may I ask what matter you want to investigate?"
Ji Tianxing did not beat around the bush and said directly: "A hundred years ago, when your sect was still the largest sect in the Yong'an region, did you build a spiritual beast garden and raise a dragon among the spiritual beasts?"
"Jiaolong?" Lin Burang immediately frowned and his expression changed.
The expressions of the elders and deacons also changed. Some were wary, while others looked confused.
Lin Burang hesitated for a moment, then waved his hand to the elders and deacons and ordered: "You all should step aside. I have important matters to discuss with Mr. Ji."
Everyone understood that what Lin Burang was going to say next involved the secrets of the Shenhui Sect and was not suitable for everyone to listen to.
As a result, all the elders and deacons bowed and left the hall.
In the blink of an eye, only Ji Tianxing, Ji Ke and Lin Burang were left in the lobby.
Lin Burang said to Ji Tianxing with a solemn expression: "Master Ji, to be honest, I only succeeded to the position of head forty years ago.
A hundred years ago, I was not born yet, so I didn’t know much about the affairs of the sect.”
Ji Tianxing stared at him with sharp eyes and asked in a deep voice: "Even though you were not born back then, you are the current leader. Do you really know nothing about what happened a hundred years ago?"
As he spoke, invisible pressure was released from his whole body, covering Lin Burang.
Lin Burang was immediately suppressed and hunched over, his face turned pale, and beads of sweat dripped from his forehead.
He bent over in fear and said in a low tone: "Master Ji, please show mercy! I only know a little bit about what happened back then, and I don't know much about it.
Moreover, that dragon was snatched away back then and has nothing to do with our sect!"
"Took it away? It was obviously taken away by Elder Ji of your sect, so how can you say it was snatched away?" Ji Tianxing frowned and asked in a majestic voice.
Lin Burang's expression suddenly changed drastically, and he looked at Ji Tianxing in disbelief, "Master Ji, you...how do you know this?"
Ji Tianxing sneered and was too lazy to explain.
Ji Ke glanced at Lin Burang and said in a playful tone: "Master Lin, if Mr. Ji didn't have some important information, how could he come to Shenhuizong in person?
I would like to advise you that it is best not to be cunning and to be honest and honest, and you can still stay safe.
If you dare to play tricks with Mr. Ji, maybe the Shenhui Sect will perish in your hands!"
Lin Burang's body suddenly trembled, his face became extremely ugly, and his eyes showed deep fear.
He had no doubt that with Ji Tianxing's strength and means, it would be easy to destroy a small Shenhui Sect.
After a while of silence, Lin Burang calmed down and said honestly: "Master Ji, you are right.
The dragon that year was indeed handed over to an elder named Ji by the sect leader when the sect was facing a great disaster, and he was ordered to take it away from the sect.
The elder's surname was Ji Yuanlong. He was the youngest and most promising elder in the sect and was highly regarded by the sect master.
However, I don’t know where Elder Ji went after he left our sect with Jiaolong, and where he is now.
If you want to investigate the clues about the dragon, you might as well go to the forbidden area behind our gate and you may be able to find clues.
That forbidden area is where the Spiritual Beast Garden used to be. It has been sealed by the formation a hundred years ago and no one can enter it."
Lin Burang's answer was very honest, basically the same as what Ji Tianxing knew.
He nodded and said: "Okay, I will go to the forbidden area to check the situation later.
In addition, I have another question, do you know what happened to the Shenhuizong catastrophe back then?
Why did the once largest sect become so vital that it almost fell apart?"
Lin Burang hesitated for a moment, and then said in a serious tone: "Master Ji, I believe you also understand that there are so many martial arts sects in this world, and the major forces rise and fall. No one can remain prosperous forever, just like the ordinary people.
Same as those kingdoms.
At that time, our sect was the largest sect in the Yong'an region, with great prosperity and unparalleled popularity. Naturally, it attracted the hostility of all the sect forces due to its greatness.
At that time, our sect's biggest enemy was the Qingshan Sect. The Qingshan Sect coveted our sect's treasure, the Praying God's Mirror, as well as the dragon that our sect raised.
Therefore, the Qingshan Sect plotted for many years, summoned two other major sects and a force, and jointly besieged the sect, forcing the sect to hand over the God of Prayer Mirror and Jiaolong.
As the largest sect, how can we be threatened by the Qingshan Sect?
As a result, the four major forces joined forces to besiege the sect. The sect leader, elders, deacons and disciples fought bloody battles to resist the siege of the four major forces to the death.
The two sides fought for a day and a night, and most of the strong men of the sect died in the battle, while the disciples suffered extremely heavy casualties.
At the critical moment, the sect leader handed the dragon to Elder Ji Yuanlong and ordered him to escape from the Shenhui Sect with the dragon.
In the end, the sect leader sacrificed his life and activated the God of Prayer to self-destruct, and perished together with the powerful men of the four major forces.
After that great catastrophe, the god of prayer was gone, and the dragon was nowhere to be found.
The strong men in our sect died and fled, and their power plummeted, almost falling apart.
The four major forces did not benefit from the decline, and more than half of the strong ones were killed or injured. After the catastrophe, they were unable to recover, and they soon declined and perished."
Lin Burang gave an overview of what happened that year.
After Ji Tianxing heard this, he felt a little emotional in his heart. He couldn't help but think of the grudges between Tianjian Sect and Qingtian Sect, how similar it was to this!
Lin Burang was filled with emotion and sighed in a complicated tone.
"No one expected that our sect had been fighting with the Qingshan Sect for many years, but in the end, the Qiankun Sect benefited and took advantage of the situation to rise and secure its position as the largest sect!
But our sect can only hold on to the bit of ancestral property left by our ancestors, living in a muddle-headed way, trying to survive.
What a bad fate, everything in the world is unpredictable!"
Ji Tianxing was silent and didn't speak, thinking secretly in his heart about how to retrieve the little black dragon's dragon crystal.
