Chapter 552: Notorious
"Senior Brother Chen, Junior Sister Qiongwei, you are here."
Seeing these two figures, Elder Qiong bowed to greet them with a slightly calm expression.
The visitors were an old man in green clothes and a beautiful Taoist nun about thirty years old. After the two flew together, they landed on the island and walked towards Elder Qiong.
Judging from the aura around them, they turned out to be masters in the early stages of forming pills.
"Junior Brother Qiong, what's the situation? Junior Sister Qiongwei and I received your summons. Did Junior Sister Bihua really die at human hands?"
The old man in green walked up to Elder Qiong and asked with a gloomy expression.
The beautiful Taoist nun also had a puzzled look on her face.
"This is absolutely true. I had rescued Junior Sister Bihua from Wanyun Island, but I didn't want an accident to happen on the way, causing Junior Sister to suffer misfortune."
Elder Qiong said with anger on his face.
When the two heard this, they became angry and said, "Who is so bold?"
When mentioning this matter, Elder Qiong couldn't hide his gloomy face, and he gritted his teeth and said: "I'm afraid you won't believe it, but the person who killed Junior Sister Bihua was actually a low-level monk with middle-level magic power, but this person I don’t know where he came from, but his magical power is so weird that I chased him for days and nights but couldn’t catch him, and now I have lost track of him.”
"What?"
"Magic monk?"
The old man in green and the beautiful Taoist nun had stunned expressions on their faces.
If a magic cultivator could escape from Elder Qiong's hands, they could barely guess that the other party might have some magical weapon to defeat him by surprise. But Fairy Bihua was also a pill-forming cultivator, so how could the other party cross the rank and kill her?
"Senior Brother Chen, Junior Sister Qiong Wei, you don't know something. Junior Sister Bihua has been trapped on Wanyun Island for two hundred years. Some changes have occurred in her body, and her cultivation is not as good as before. She probably suffered a murderous attack because of her carelessness. "
Seeming to see the doubts of the old man in green and the Taoist nun, Elder Qiong sighed and explained to them.
The old man in green frowned slightly, and the beautiful Taoist nun also began to ponder.
"Junior Sister Bihua is the elder of my Wuji Palace, and a dignified alchemy cultivator died at the hands of a low-level magic cultivator in the Chaos Demon Realm. If this matter is spread, how can we have any dignity?"
The old man in green said gloomily.
After finishing his words, he said to Elder Qiong: "If we want to save the situation now, I'm afraid we have to catch that person. Otherwise, let alone the ridicule of the world, we will be severely punished when we return to Wuji Palace in the future."
Hearing this, the beautiful Taoist nun looked a little sad. She looked at Elder Qiong and asked, "Senior Brother Chen is right. A mere magic monk dares to kill me, the elder of Wuji Palace. Once this matter is spread, it will be a huge laughing stock." , Brother Qiong, can you clearly see what that person looks like? How can there be any reason to let such a brave man live? "
"Of course I saw it clearly, and I also sketched his appearance."
Elder Qiong nodded and waved his hand, and the two scrolls fell into the hands of the old man in green and the beautiful Taoist nun.
The two hesitated for a moment, then opened them one after another, and saw Ye Chunyang's appearance on the portrait.
"Is this person so young?"
The beautiful Taoist nun glanced at her for a few times, with a strange look on her face.
"Yes, my brother was very surprised at first, but he was indeed the only one present at the time, and the magical power he showed in chasing the opponent in the past few days is enough to prove that Junior Sister Bihua died in his hands."
Elder Qiong said secretly.
The death of Fairy Bihua made Elder Qiong feel pain all over his body. He thought he could catch up with this person and crush his bones into ashes. Unexpectedly, the other person had amazing magical powers and his life slipped out of his hands. How could he not be frightened and angry?
The beautiful Taoist nun stared at the portrait and was silent. When she was about to take it back, she saw the old man in green with his eyebrows deeply furrowed and his face thoughtful. She couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Why does Senior Brother Chen have such an expression? Do you know this person?" ?”
The old man in green frowned, his eyes flickered slightly, but after a while he shook his head and said, "Brother, I don't recognize this person, but his appearance seems familiar, and I feel like I've seen him before somewhere before."
Elder Qiong was startled when he heard this, and frowned slightly, saying: "Senior Brother said this, I also felt a little strange. When I first met this person, I seemed to have seen this person somewhere before, but I had no impression at all."
"Junior Brother Qiong also feels this way?" The old man in green looked surprised.
Elder Qiong nodded and fell into deep thought.
Seeing the two people like this, the beautiful Taoist nun was confused. She opened the scroll again and took a closer look. Just now she didn't notice anything strange at first glance, but now she felt something was wrong when she took a closer look. She also felt that she had seen this portrait before.
The beautiful Taoist nun's dark eyebrows were slightly condensed. After a moment, she seemed to catch something in her mind. Suddenly her eyes lit up and she said: "Two senior brothers, I remembered. I have seen this person's portrait at Wutianmen. It seems to be one of them." Wanted person."
"Is there anyone wanted by Tianmen?" Elder Qiong looked surprised.
On the other side, the old man in green had a thoughtful expression on his face when he heard this, and then he seemed to remember something, and said with a cold expression: "Yes, thanks to Junior Sister's reminder, this person's portrait did appear in Wutianmen. If I didn't remember, If I am wrong, this person seems to be a newly promoted elder from Tianji Peak of Tianqi Sect, named Ye Xiaobao. I never expected that there is such a person in just Tianqi Sect. "
"Ye Xiaobao!"
Elder Qiong gritted his teeth and said grimly: "No matter who he is, if he dares to kill Junior Sister Bihua, I will definitely extract his soul and refine his soul, crushing his bones and turning him into ashes! But now that we know his identity, it saves us from searching everywhere." When the time comes, all we have to do is go to Tianqi Gate to ask for someone, and whoever stops him will die!"
The old man in green shook his head and said: "Junior Brother Qiong, please do not act rashly. After all, Tianqi Sect is also the top immortal cultivation sect in Tian Chong Mountain. There are many vassal forces in the north and south, and there are two supreme masters in the late stage of pill formation in the sect. Elder, it is said that Yi Laoyi has mastered the long-lost secret technique of Tianqi Sect, 'Frost Thunder Flame True Art'. Acting rashly may be counterproductive. If you want to capture this person, you need to think long and hard."
"Hehe, although Tianqi Sect has some strength, it is only as far as Tian Chong Mountain is concerned. They are not even ants in front of my Wuji Palace. Are we still afraid of them?"
Elder Qiong gave a ferocious laugh and said with disdain.
"Having said that, junior brother, please don't forget that the Northern Wilderness has always been defined. However, monks in the late stage of Dan Formation and above cannot easily appear across borders to prevent various realms from falling into chaos. Otherwise, how could the sect only send us forward? Come?" The old man in green frowned slightly.
Elder Qiong still wanted to say something after hearing this, but the beautiful Taoist nun promptly advised: "Senior Brother Chen is right, a mere Tianqi Sect is nothing, and the kid with middle-level magic power is more like an ant in our eyes, he can do it casually Crushed to death, but now is the critical period to take over Tian Chong Mountain. If we act rashly, our previous plans will be disrupted. Not to mention that several years of hard work will be wasted, and you and I cannot bear the blame for the sect. of."
"Then what do you mean, do you think this matter should just be settled like this?" Elder Qiong said angrily.
"Of course we can't let it go like this."
The Taoist nun chuckled lightly and said: "Tianqi Sect is thousands of miles away from here. Even if that kid is the reincarnation of a true immortal, he will never be able to rush back to the sect in just a few days. He must still be here at this time." No matter how bad it is near this sea area, it will never escape the scope of Zhaoning County. With our ability, it is not difficult to find it before it returns to Tianqimen. "
"That's what I mean by being a brother." The old man in green nodded slightly and said to Elder Qiong.
Elder Qiong's expression was gloomy, and after thinking for a moment, he snorted gloomily: "Senior Brother Chen and Junior Sister Qiong Wei have said so, what else can I say, but after these days of consumption, that boy will definitely know Find a secret place to hide and recover, as long as he has not left Zhaoning County, he will never return to Tianqimen alive. "
"In this case, we will split up to look for traces of that kid. If we find him, we will kill him immediately!" the old man in green shouted.
Elder Qiong and Taoist Priest Meimei had no objections to this. Finally, the three of them discussed it again and turned into divine rainbows and disappeared into the sea.
Hundreds of miles away, Ye Chunyang didn't know that in addition to Elder Qiong, there were two other alchemy monks frantically searching for his traces.
At this time, he was in a cave deep in the veins of Ghost Flame Mountain. The aura around him was completely gone, and there was only a flicker of gray light.
In the past, it was because Elder Qiong was chasing after him and he kept casting spells to escape that the other party could lock on to his aura. Now that he has shaken it off and used his skills to hide it, no matter how strong Elder Qiong's spiritual consciousness is, he can't. It is absolutely impossible to find any trace, so Ye Chunyang can rest assured to hide here.
Although he narrowly escaped death this time, the consumption was far greater than expected. Even with the psychic spring water to maintain his magic power, Ye Chunyang felt physically and mentally exhausted and needed to rest for a period of time before he could recover.
However, he has no plans to leave in the near future. As the saying goes, a dangerous place is a safe place. Even if Elder Qiong had great wisdom, he would never have imagined that instead of leaving after escaping, he would hide in the Ghost Flame Mountain.
After thinking about it like this, Ye Chunyang opened the jade gourd, took out several healing elixirs and drank them. Then he sat cross-legged and meditated, making secret movements with his hands.
There was no time in the mountains, and more than half a year had passed unknowingly. While Ye Chunyang was resting and recovering under the veins of the Ghost Flame Mountain, the search for him by Elder Qiong and others from outside never stopped.
However, despite the persistence of the three elders Qiong, the search scope expanded from the sea area at the junction of Tianchong Mountain and Lianyunhai to Zhaoning County, and then from Zhaoning County to the middle of Beimai. They even secretly inquired from Tianqimen about that person. The murderer named Ye Xiaobao seemed to have disappeared without a trace.
Such a large formation of three alchemy monks naturally attracted the attention of interested people. Although the three tried their best to block the news, the paper could not contain the fire.
After several fruitless searches, their identities were completely exposed to the public. They turned out to be the elder Ke Qing of Wutian Sect, and the person they were looking for was Ye Xiaobao of Tianqi Sect.
More news came out that Ye Xiaobao beheaded one of his fellow disciples and escaped safely under the joint pursuit of three alchemy monks, although it was unknown what the cultivation level of the man who was killed was.
But judging from the relentless search by the three of them, the person who was killed must have been a very important person, and was most likely even a pill-forming monk.
For a time, rumors spread widely, and the rumor that the elders of Tianqi Sect furiously killed Wu Tianmen's alchemy guest Qing spread like wildfire, making this "Ye Xiaobao" famous far and wide.
At the same time, the conflict between the two sects has been pushed to the forefront. As for the real source of the information or whether it is true, there is no way to check it.
