The wind rises
The thumping sound of Ning Yue knocking on the chair entered the middle-aged man's ears, causing his expression to darken.
He had never expected Old Crane to be so powerful!
"Could it be that he has already advanced to the Half Step to Creation Realm?"
Although the middle-aged man was very strong, he was no match for a martial artist who was half a step into the Manifestation Realm!
"No! His cultivation is only at the peak of the Yin-Yang realm, or even just an ordinary peak of the Yin-Yang realm. "
Soon enough, the middle-aged man rejected the idea.
From the aura that Old He emitted, the middle-aged man could tell that Old He was only a Peak Yin-Yang Realm martial artist.
"There are two main reasons why I'm here."
The middle-aged man was able to keep his composure. After he stood up from the ground, he patted his clothes and said, "The first thing is to get Lu Wei before tomorrow night …"
"Um, excuse me."
Ning Yue waved his hand and interrupted the middle-aged man, asking, "Before you speak, can you introduce yourself first? Don't you think it's rude? "
Crack!
It was one thing to be interrupted by Ning Yue, but Ning Yue's tone made the middle-aged man very unhappy.
Although he was unhappy, the middle-aged man took a deep breath and said, "I'm Zhou Tao, the Deputy Captain of the Hidden Dragon Guards. I'm at the peak late-stage Yin-Yang Realm. I'm here on the Emperor's order. I have two things to tell you."
"Oh, so his name is Zhou Tao. I thought he didn't have a name."
Ning Yue nodded and said, "Now you can tell me what those two things are."
"The first thing is to send Lu Wei to the Imperial Palace before tomorrow night!" Zhou Tao said coldly.
"This matter is a little tricky. If Lu Wei hides in Danwu College, I don't have much of a solution." Ning Yue imitated Elder He's tone and said, "Go back and tell His Majesty that I will do my best in this matter. I won't let him down."
"Tell His Majesty when the time comes."
Zhou Tao didn't care what Ning Yue said. After all, this was not his main purpose for coming to the Snow Pavilion.
He was just mentioning it in passing.
"The second matter is that the Third Prince was killed by someone from the Assassination Pavilion. His Majesty wants you to go to the Assassination Pavilion." Zhou Tao continued, "Personally investigate the matter of the Third Prince's death."
"Even the Third Prince was killed?"
Hearing Zhou Tao's words, Ning Yue revealed an exaggerated expression. "Not long ago, my Black Whirlwind was also killed. All signs point to the Corpse Sect being the one who killed Black Whirlwind!"
In any case, Zhou Tao was the vice-captain of the Hidden Dragon Guards. At this time, Ning Yue blamed Black Whirlwind's death on the Yin Corpse Sect. Even if he killed Old He in the future, it wouldn't be too abrupt.
"Not long ago, the people I sent came back with news that several experts of the Corpse Yin Sect were found in the forest outside the capital."
At this point, Ning Yue paused for a bit before continuing, "Captain Zhou, are you interested in coming with me to meet the people from the Corpse Sect?"
In the end, Ning Yue added.
"The strength of those experts from the Corpse Yin Sect is not too strong. Hmm, the weakest is about the same as you."
Hiss!
Ning Yue's words caused Zhou Tao to suck in a breath of cold air.
The weakest was on par with him?
Didn't that mean that all the powerful cultivators of the Corpse Yin Sect had come out?
If all the experts of the Corpse Yin Sect were to move, it would be a great challenge for the imperial family and the Hidden Dragon Guards.
After all, the experts of the Corpse Yin Sect wouldn't come to the capital for no reason. Since they came, there was an 80% chance that they were here to assassinate the emperor!
Thinking of this, Zhou Tao said in a deep voice, "I will report this matter to His Majesty and let him decide."
"I advise you not to act rashly. If you act rashly and alert them, the consequences are not something you can bear."
Buzz!
Just at this moment, Zhou Tao's expression changed. He quickly took out a crystal ball from his pocket.
With Ning Yue's eyesight, he could naturally see a line of small words on the crystal ball.
"Traces of the experts of the Corpse Yin Sect have been discovered. Return to the imperial palace immediately!"
Seeing the words on the crystal ball, Ning Yue was dumbfounded.
Did his casual words really come true? The Corpse Yin Sect really sent experts to the capital?
"Old Crane, I have already passed on the message. As for whether you listen or not, it has nothing to do with me."
Zhou Tao put away the crystal ball and said to Ning Yue, "There are two things I need to do. Send Lu Wei to the imperial palace tomorrow night and personally go to the Assassination Pavilion to investigate the matter of the third prince's death."
Swish!
As his voice fell, Zhou Tao's figure flashed and he immediately rushed out of the main hall.
The pressure here was too great for Zhou Tao. He felt as if he was trapped in a cage and it was very uncomfortable.
It was naturally excellent to be able to leave quickly.
Ning Yue did not stop Zhou Tao from leaving. After all, it was really unwise to trap Zhou Tao at this critical juncture.
Dong dong!
After Zhou Tao left, Ning Yue habitually knocked his finger on the chair, making a "dong dong" sound.
After a while, Ning Yue said to Leng Mian, "Find a way to contact Qing Wu and the pale-faced scholar. See where they are. If possible, make them return to the Snow Domain Pavilion tomorrow morning!"
"Yes!"
As soon as Ning Yue's voice fell, Leng Mian's heart skipped a beat. He had vaguely guessed what Ning Yue was going to do.
If there was no accident, Ning Yue definitely wanted to control Qing Wu and the pale-faced scholar!
Leng Mian knew very well that Qing Wu and the pale-faced scholar were both late-stage Yin-Yang Realm martial artists like him. Their strength was much stronger than his.
With Ning Yue's means, controlling Qing Wu and the pale-faced scholar was much better than controlling him.
"Ning Yue, that …"
However, before Leng Mian could leave the hall, Xun Jianwen's words rang in Ning Yue's mind, "There aren't enough crystals."
"What!"
Ning Yue stood up from the chair with a swoosh, his face full of disbelief. "Say that again?!"
Ning Yue's sudden action made Leng Mian a little dumbfounded as he stood on the spot in a daze.
"There's clearly more in the storage ring … F * ck, where did the transcendent-grade crystals in the storage ring go?"
Ning Yue extended his perception and quietly entered the storage ring.
However, when Ning Yue 'saw' that there were only a few hundred transcendent-grade crystals left in the storage ring, he was immediately dumbfounded.
Wasn't this too f * cking ridiculous?
Wasn't there still more than 400,000 transcendent-grade crystals in the storage ring? Why was there suddenly only a few hundred left?
"All the transcendent-grade crystals were taken by the Dark Emperor. He only left me 20,000 transcendent-grade crystals."
Xun Jianwen began to complain. "The two formations in the storage ring consume a large number of transcendent-grade crystals at every moment. Moreover, if you want Elder He to be obedient to you, you need at least 100,000 transcendent-grade crystals."
"100,000? Why don't you go rob me! "
Ning Yue went berserk on the spot.
Xun Jianwen once said that it consumed 20,000 transcendent-grade crystals to control Leng Mian.
This number was still acceptable to Ning Yue. After all, Leng Mian was a late-stage Yin-Yang Realm martial artist with strong combat power.
However, what the hell was with Elder He?
Elder He's Sea of Consciousness was destroyed, and controlling a piece of trash required 100,000 transcendent-grade crystals?
Most importantly, Xun Jianwen had already used 20,000 transcendent-grade crystals!
