"What's the matter?" Perfected Lord Tianlan asked Lu Chen.
Lu Chen pondered for a moment and said, "There's still some trouble in the Western Land. I want Old Ma to go there."
Perfected Lord Tianlan frowned and looked at Lu Chen without saying anything, but his eyes were deep and sharp as if he wanted to see through Lu Chen's mind.
Lu Chen didn't intend to avoid his eyes and just met his eyes. After a while, Perfected Lord Tianlan suddenly snorted and said, "No."
Lu Chen was slightly surprised. He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but then stopped. In the end, he just nodded without saying anything, and there was no shame or anger on his face after his request was rejected.
…
When Lu Chen walked out of the Kunlun Palace, the moment he stepped out of the door, his originally calm face was replaced by a heavy graveness, as if he had a lot on his mind.
Old Ma, who had been waiting outside, came to greet him. First, he carefully looked at Lu Chen's expression, and his heart skipped a beat. Then, he looked at the magnificent palace behind Lu Chen and asked in a low voice, "How is it?"
Lu Chen shook his head slightly and didn't answer. He only said softly, "Let's walk and talk."
Old Ma was stunned and nodded in agreement. Then, he followed Lu Chen and left the Kunlun Palace.
After walking for more than 100 feet, Lu Chen stopped and said to Old Ma, "You can't leave without my agreement."
Old Ma looked disappointed, but he didn't look particularly surprised. Maybe he already knew it. But even so, he still sighed and muttered a sentence.
Lu Chen didn't hear him clearly and didn't know if he was complaining.
After a while, Old Ma gradually calmed down and asked Lu Chen with a frown, "Why?"
Lu Chen shook his head and said, "No reason. He didn't explain. He just said no directly."
Old Ma smiled bitterly and said, "Then forget it. Nothing will happen here in the Immortal City. Even if the sky falls, there are so many people on Mount Tianlong to support it."
Lu Chen laughed and patted his old friend's shoulder, saying, "You're right. Don't be afraid. If something really happens, there are people more unfortunate than you."
Old Ma shrugged and didn't seem to take Lu Chen's words to heart. He looked around casually and suddenly changed the topic, saying, "By the way, why didn't I see Atsu today? Isn't it always with you?"
Lu Chen said with an "oh" and said, "Didn't the Oxen on Kunlun Mountain also come here? Recently, Atsu often follows it when it has nothing to do. I don't know where it is now. "
…
"The atmosphere on the mountain recently feels a little strange." An aged but calm voice floated in the quiet room. That hand that already seemed a bit withered was currently placed on a smooth, spotlessly white, and exquisite woman's back, gently caressing it.
Song Wenji turned sideways and faced the inside of the wall. The flush on her face had mostly faded, and the remaining blush was like two groups of rouge smeared on her charming and beautiful cheeks, exuding a breathtaking temptation. But she seemed to have no intention of showing this beauty to others. She was only pretending to be tired and quietly looking at the cold and hard wall in front of her. At this time, her face revealed a rare trace of coldness.
The old hand touched her bare shoulder and gently rubbed it. It was like a piece of hard and rough sandpaper, making Song Wenji's whole body tremble slightly. Her heart felt numb, and a trace of deep and dark disgust flashed across the depths of her eyes.
The hand suddenly stopped, and then the voice paused for a moment. Then, with a trace of concern, he asked her, "What's wrong?"
The coldness on Song Wenji's face vanished in an instant and was replaced by a languid coquettishness with a little shyness. She gently turned over and smiled like a blooming spring flower, beautiful beyond words. She said, "I'm fine, foster father."
Of course, the person behind her was Immortal Tiehu from the Hall of Heavenly Law. With some affection, he gently stroked Song Wenji's beautiful hair. His face showed a gratified expression and said, "It's good that you're fine."
Song Wenji smiled and said, "I was distracted just now. Yifu, what did you say just now?"
Immortal Tiehu said, "I said that recently, I feel that the atmosphere here on the mountain is a little strange. I always feel that something is going to happen." He hesitated for a moment and said, "Oh yes, I heard that in the Starry Hall, Feng Ze was scolded and punished by that old man Gu Yue and has been kneeling outside the hall for a few days?"
Song Wenji nodded and said, "It's true. I also heard about it and specially sent people to inquire about it in private. But now everyone in the Starry Hall says that Feng Ze, for some reason, suddenly angered Immortal Gu Yue and was then punished severely by Immortal Gu Yue. He did not care about Senior Brother Feng Ze's face at all. You should know that Senior Brother Feng Ze is the eldest disciple of Immortal Gu Yue and is usually the most valued. Everyone thinks that he is the most promising person to inherit Immortal Gu Yue's mantle. "
Immortal Tiehu snorted and said, "It's hard to say whether he can become Gu Yue's true disciple and take over the foundation of the Starry Hall. But with Old Gu Yue suddenly doing this, it's hard to say whether he is targeting our Heavenly Law Hall. "
Song Wenji frowned and said, "It can't be?"
Immortal Tiehu thought for a while and seemed to have no clue, so he changed the topic and said, "That kid from the Kunlun Party called He Yi, has there been any progress recently?"
Song Wenji's eyes flashed and said, "That person is in a hurry and kept asking me to make arrangements. He wants to meet you personally."
Immortal Tiehu sneered and said, "Have you checked his background? Is there anything suspicious?"
Song Wenji quickly nodded and said, "I have. This He Yi is indeed a direct disciple of the Kunlun Party and is also one of the most outstanding people in the younger generation of the Kunlun Party in the past few years. But a few years ago, after the chaos of the full moon in the Kunlun Party, his teacher Dukon Zhenren died accidentally. Although he quickly went to Immortal Tianlan's side, I heard that he spared no effort in doing things for Immortal Tianlan. But until now, I haven't heard that Immortal Tianlan really has the intention to promote him. "
Immortal Tiehu sneered and said, "He's just a clown. What kind of person is Tianlan, why would he like him?"
Song Wenji raised her eyebrows slightly. "Then, Foster Father, are you saying that he's depressed because he can't get what he wants? That's why he's secretly relying on us?"
Immortal Tiehu thought for a moment and said, "It has been difficult for us to get a nail in Fuyunji and the Kunlun Party. Although we can't completely trust He Yi this time, it is a rare opportunity after all. How about this … "
He suddenly sat up and squinted his eyes with a hint of coldness and said, "Let him prepare a proof of allegiance. If he is sincere, I will meet him and guarantee him a bright future!"
"Proof of allegiance? What is it? "Song Wenji's eyes flashed and asked in a low voice.
Immortal Tiehu sneered and said, "He naturally knows."
