"Female? So what if it's a female? In this day and age, the number of female villains is no less than the number of male villains! "Zhao Wen said angrily.
"You …" Liu Ying was so angry that he was at a loss for words.
"Zhao Wen, have you had enough? First of all, I can tell you that there is no such person among the Emei disciples. I don't know how you saw it, but someone kidnapped your granddaughter and brought her here. What I want to tell you now is to immediately follow Gu An to find the deacon in charge of handling accidents. If you continue to cause trouble here, I won't be polite anymore! "
It was not the first time Elder Wuchou met Zhao Wen. He understood Zhao Wen more than Gu An. He knew that this old man was not a good person, so naturally, he would not be too polite.
Seeing Elder Wuchou angry, Zhao Wen was a little scared. "Alright, since an elder like you said so, I'll believe you for now. Follow me to find the deacon in charge of this kind of thing. I want to find my granddaughter."
"Alright, bring him there!"
Elder Wuchou nodded and ordered Gu An.
However, at this moment, an extremely soft cry suddenly came from the Emei Pagoda.
Elder Wuchou frowned. He suddenly turned around and rushed into the Emei Pagoda. The soft cry just now was clearly the sound of a person dying.
When Elder Wuchou rushed into the Emei Pagoda, he saw a woman's figure facing a lamp post in the Chaos Pagoda. He did not know what she was doing, but the person lying on the ground was a dead Emei disciple.
"Stop!"
Elder Wuchou shouted angrily and punched towards the woman's back.
It was as if the woman had eyes on the back of her head. She dodged without even turning her head. She waved her hand and five claw winds attacked Elder Wuchou's face. Who else could this woman be but Zhao Ya!
Elder Wuchou raised his palm and pushed it forward. His purified red inner strength turned into a thick palm. While it destroyed the claw winds, it still pushed towards Zhao Ya without slowing down.
Elder Wuchou was worried. They were inside the Chaos Pagoda. Gu Zheng had also told him that the lamp post was the core of the first floor of the Chaos Pagoda. He was afraid that he would hurt the lamp post when he attacked Zhao Ya.
Zhao Ya obviously knew what Elder Wuchou was worried about. With a light flash, she arrived beside the lamppost and effortlessly dodged Elder Wuchou's attack.
Moreover, while Zhao Ya and Elder Wuchou were fighting, Zhao Ya's left hand was constantly in a pushing motion. Between her palm and the lamppost, there was something that looked like blue lightning that was undulating.
Elder Wuchou was furious. Zhao Ya actually ran into the Primal Chaos Pagoda to cause trouble. He had a feeling that he couldn't take her down. If Gu Zheng knew about this, where would he put his face?!
"You're courting death!"
The furious Elder Wuchou punched out. In his other hand, two silent flying daggers had already left his hand.
At such a close distance, and Elder Wuchou's flying dagger technique was very powerful, logically speaking, Zhao Ya shouldn't be able to dodge it.
However, Zhao Ya's brows furrowed. A blue object broke through the clothes in front of her chest, flew out, and froze in mid-air! The blue light released from it not only dissolved Elder Wuchou's inner strength and flying daggers, but even Gu An and Liu Ying, who had insufficient cultivation and wanted to participate in the battle but couldn't find the opportunity, were sent flying with a scream.
Facing the strange blue light, although Elder Wuchou didn't suffer much damage, his heart was filled with a strange fear. If it wasn't for his strong willpower, he would have definitely screamed and escaped from the Primal Chaos Pagoda.
However, even if Elder Wuchou didn't escape from the Primal Chaos Pagoda, he had lost his ability to fight. Deep in his heart, he was fighting with fear. Large beads of sweat rolled down his face. He wanted to wave his hand and throw a punch, but he couldn't do it.
"Get out of here, you old bastard!"
Zhao Ya shouted. The blue light in the air shone brightly. Elder Wuchou screamed and rushed out of the Primal Chaos Pagoda while holding his head in pain.
"Lady Ya, hurry up. With such a big commotion, I think the people from Emei Sect will be here soon." Zhao Wen, who had entered the Primal Chaos Pagoda, reminded her.
"Is there a need for you to say that? Didn't you see that I just finished off that old bastard? "
Zhao Ya was burning with anxiety. How could she not be worried after causing such a big commotion?
However, things were a little unexpected. Logically speaking, even if Emei Pagoda had an owner, she was the controller of the Sacred Pagoda. As long as she used her current method to transfer the Sacred Pagoda's power, she should be able to easily sever Emei Pagoda's original ownership. However, the current situation was that Emei Pagoda's ownership was extremely tenacious. It made her feel like she was on the verge of severing it!
To make Zhao Ya feel this way, it was naturally Jiaojiao's doing. If Gu Zheng hadn't asked him to hold Zhao Ya back, Zhao Ya would have felt that Emei Pagoda was unshakeable. At this moment, Gu Zheng, who was still at the top of the Primal Chaos Pagoda, also knew what was happening below through Sora Aojiao.
"Accidents really come one after another! It seems like Zhao Ya isn't a Fiendish Cultivator. She's related to the Sacred Blood Sect and Heavenly Spiral Sect! "Gu Zheng frowned.
"Sect Master, Elder Wuchou and the others have lost their ability to fight. Do you need me to take action now?" Sora Aojiao asked.
"Do it. Take the two of them alive and 'lead' them to their secrets!" Gu Zheng said coldly.
"Yes!"
As soon as Sora Aojiao agreed, he disappeared from the top of the Primal Chaos Pagoda.
“***！”
Zhao Ya, who was burning with anxiety, looked at the man who suddenly appeared at the door and called out his name.
"You know me?"
Sora Aojiao frowned. He didn't expect Zhao Ya to recognize him at a glance.
Zhao Ya didn't know Sora Aojiao, but she had seen his portrait. She was naturally very clear about Sora Aojiao's strength.
She didn't answer Sora Aojiao's question. In an instant, beads of sweat and determination appeared on Zhao Ya's face at the same time. She understood that with a top expert like Sora Aojiao around, it was impossible to escape. Since she couldn't escape, Zhao Ya didn't dare to imagine the consequences of being caught by him!
The determination on Zhao Ya's face couldn't be hidden from Sora Aojiao's eyes. Sora Aojiao waved his hand, and the energy of heaven and earth was mobilized. The surrounding air became viscous, and it became impossible for Zhao Ya to move a finger.
However, the energy of heaven and earth could imprison a person's physical body, but it couldn't imprison a person's thoughts and actions. The determination on Zhao Ya's face deepened. With a thought, the object in the air that was emitting blue light suddenly exploded.
"Bang …"
An extremely muffled explosion was heard.
Surrounded by the energy of heaven and earth that Sora Aojiao had mobilized, the explosion caused by Zhao Ya didn't affect a large area. However, in the small circle surrounded by the energy of heaven and earth, she and Zhao Wen, as well as some of the decorations in the Primal Chaos Pagoda, were all blown into powder.
"Damn it!"
Sora Aojiao frowned. Zhao Ya's ruthlessness and the power of the explosion of the blue immortal artifact had exceeded his expectations.
"Sect Master, this subordinate didn't do a good job and wasn't able to keep them alive."
Gu Zheng also arrived at the first floor of the Primal Chaos Pagoda. Sora Aojiao's voice appeared in his mind.
Gu Zheng didn't say anything. He only gave Sora Aojiao a smile that said it didn't matter.
Gu Zheng already knew what had happened on the first floor of the Primal Chaos Pagoda through Jiaojiao. He understood that if the same situation happened to him, he would also be caught off guard.
"Originally, I wanted to know their secret through the 'introduction', but now it seems that it's impossible."
Looking at the mess on the ground, Gu Zheng turned his head to look at Sora Aojiao. "Supreme Elder, immediately go to the Zhao Mansion at the foot of the mountain. If there are still people in the Zhao Mansion, capture them all."
Sora Aojiao nodded. He looked at Elder Wuyou who had already captured Elder Wuchou and said, "Don't worry about him. Let him continue to be crazy. This is a blessing in disguise for him!"
As soon as Sora Aojiao finished speaking, he had already disappeared into the night.
After Sora Aojiao's reminder before he left, joy appeared on Gu Zheng and Elder Wuyou's faces.
It was reasonable to say that Elder Wuchou was confused by the divine ability of the immortal artifact and fell into a state of confusion. But now that the immortal artifact was destroyed, he should have broken free from the confusion. However, not only did Elder Wuchou not wake up, he became even crazier than before. He shouted something that no one could understand and jumped around like a madman.
Gu Zheng and Elder Wuyou didn't have experience, but Sora Aojiao did. He could tell at a glance that Elder Wuchou had gained a blessing in disguise. The divine ability of the immortal artifact had allowed him to enter that mysterious realm by accident. This kind of opportunity could only be encountered by chance.
Ignoring Elder Wuchou for now, Gu Zheng looked at the mess on the ground and frowned.
He originally thought that Zhao Ya was from the Sacred Blood Sect. After all, she had mentioned the Sacred Blood Sect's mission in Chuan Province. The Zhao Mansion also had an evil technique to raise corpses. She also had an unusual relationship with Zhao Wen. However, the immortal artifact that had caused Elder Wuchou to fall into chaos and explode in the end was the imitation of the Nine-Colored Illusion Sonic Conch that Gu Zheng had seen from Shangguan Feng some time ago.
However, Zhao Ya's imitation of the Nine-Colored Illusion Sonic Conch was different in color from Shangguan Feng's. The divine ability it represented was not only fear, but also an unimaginable ability to self-destruct.
The reason Gu Zheng thought that Zhao Ya was related to the Heavenly Spiral Sect was because the imitation of the Nine-Colored Illusion Sonic Conch couldn't be used by anyone other than those who practiced the Heavenly Spiral Sect's special technique. This mysterious technique of the Heavenly Spiral Sect was also a secret technique that they didn't pass on to outsiders.
"It seems that when I go to Foggy Wind Island, I really have to go to Blood Tide Island," Gu Zheng thought.
Elder Wuchou had already calmed down. However, he didn't open his eyes. Instead, he sat cross-legged on the ground as if he was comprehending something.
* * * * had also returned. As Gu Zheng had expected, the Zhao Mansion at the foot of the mountain was empty. After all, Zhao Wen and Zhao Ya had come with a mission this time. Even if they couldn't see the Emei Pagoda, they still had to explore it at night. After doing such a thing, it would be too careless of them to leave anyone in the Zhao Mansion at the foot of the mountain.
Elder Wuchou sat cross-legged near the Chaos Pagoda. This area was now under martial law. * * * * had even set up a barrier nearby. Gu Zheng and the others were waiting here quietly. They were getting more and more excited.
In the originally clear night sky, clouds had already formed. There was also a strong wind in the surroundings. These strange phenomena were getting more and more intense. It was very similar to the scene when Elder Wuyou had become an immortal cultivator.
They didn't have to wait for too long. The whole process from the appearance of the strange phenomena to the complete outbreak only took about a minute.
Sand and stones were flying around, and the wind was raging. The clouds in the sky covered the area around Mount Emei. The night sky was still clear. It looked very dreamy.
"Kacha …"
A bolt of lightning was born in the clouds. The originally dim Mount Emei was illuminated.
Bean-sized raindrops fell from the sky. They were swept up by the wind and formed a huge water dragon in the air. There was an extremely special aura between heaven and earth.
Elder Wuchou, who was originally sitting cross-legged, opened his eyes. He stood up and let the wind and rain mix with that special aura wash and baptize his original mortal body.
The phenomenon appeared quickly and ended just as quickly. Just like Elder Wuyou, Elder Wuchou's body only trembled, and his wet clothes instantly dried.
A long whistle came from Elder Wuchou's mouth. He waved his hand, and the energy of heaven and earth wrapped around his flying knife and hit a huge rock in the distance.
"Bang!"
With a loud sound, the rock, which was the size of a house, exploded into thousands of pieces of gravel under a flying knife less than four inches long.
"Congratulations, Second Elder. You have become the sixth immortal cultivator of our Emei!"
Gu Zheng took the lead to congratulate Elder Wuchou, followed by Elder Wuchou and the others.
Emei now had six immortal cultivators. They were Elder Wuchou, who was at the peak of Void Return, Jia Si, who was at the early stage of Soul Formation, Du Wei, who was at the middle stage of Soul Formation, Miaomiao, who was at the middle stage of Soul Formation, and Elder Wuyou and Elder Wuchou, who were at the early stage of Qi Transformation! Although the number of Void Return cultivators was one less than Shu Mountain, the total number of immortal cultivators was one more than Shu Mountain. This made Elder Wuyou and Elder Wuchou, who had been looking forward to the rise of Emei, and even Du Wei, who had returned from a long journey, ecstatic!
Although Elder Wuyou and Jia Si did not belong to Emei, they had already regarded themselves as members of Emei. Although their reaction was not as strong as Wuyou and Elder Wuchou, they also smiled like flowers. Who wouldn't want their sect to be strong and prosperous?
As for Miaomiao, although her reaction was the most indifferent, after seeing the smile on Gu Zheng's face, she also smiled happily. She wanted to move closer to Gu Zheng and rub against him like before, but when she thought of the lesson from the weapon spirit, she immediately dismissed the idea.
"Sect Leader, I am guilty!"
Everyone still had a smile on their faces, but the smile on Elder Wuchou's face had disappeared. Looking at Gu Zheng, his face was almost wrinkled into a bitter gourd.
"Tell me, what kind of crime have you committed?" Gu Zheng said lightly.
"I was not vigilant enough. I thought that nothing would happen in my own sect, but tonight's incident happened. If I had been more vigilant, Zhao Ya would not have rushed into the Emei Pagoda, and my following attack would have been restrained. If I had been more cautious and used the fairy weapon given by the Sect Leader at the beginning, even if she also had a fairy weapon, it would not have been difficult for me to kill her! Please punish me, Sect Leader, so that I can remember this lesson! "Elder Wuchou self-reproached.
"Just remember the lesson. There is no need to punish you. After all, you also wanted to keep her alive. What's more, the strength of the other party was indeed a little beyond imagination."
Gu Zheng's voice paused for a moment before his gaze swept across the crowd. "This matter is not only a lesson for Elder Wu Chou, but also for all of you and I. It must be treated as a lesson! Troubled times are coming, we should be careful in doing things. Today, an Emei disciple died. I don't want to see one of your corpses in the future. That will make me very sad! "
"Yes, we will follow the Sect Leader's instructions!"
Although the identity of Elder Wuchou and the others were all Grand Elders and Elders, in the face of Gu Zheng's reprimand, they still answered seriously and seriously.
"Well, unpleasant things have already happened, but at least there is something for us to be happy about. Today, the Second Elder has advanced to become a cultivator. This matter is worth celebrating. I have decided to cook a table of good dishes now. Let's open the immortal wine and taste the delicacies to celebrate!"
"Long live the Sect Leader!"
When Gu Zheng's voice fell, Elder Wuchou and the others immediately cheered.
Early in the morning, in the Chaos Pagoda.
Gu Zheng had completed the blood and immortal power needed to repair the Chaos Pagoda today. At this time, he was standing on the top floor of the twenty-second floor of the Chaos Pagoda, looking at the mountains and rivers of Emei through the window. His heart was calm.
Emei now had six cultivators. As the head of the sect, he would become the seventh cultivator of Emei today.
Gu Zheng, who had turned around, was still as calm as water. The pot was already boiling on the fire. The ingredients needed to be processed to refine the elemental food cultivators had already been processed yesterday.
The processed ingredients were put into the pot in an orderly manner. When all the ingredients were cooked and the soup became viscous, Gu Zheng poured some of the elixirs he had obtained from the Kongkong Sect's treasure, as well as his Immortal Essence Pills, into the pot.
"Boom!"
As soon as the elixir entered the pot, it immediately made a soft sound. Thick white smoke immediately floated out of the pot, as if dry ice had been placed inside. However, this white smoke was not an ordinary gas. It was so thick that one could see the Immortal Essence Pills!
Immortal Essence Pills floated outside the pot, but they magically gathered and did not disperse. They were like living creatures, constantly spiraling and churning.
The last time he had cooked the elemental food cultivators, Gu Zheng had immediately activated the Water Control Art and the Fire Control Art to pull the Immortal Essence Pills into the soup. However, this time, Gu Zheng was not in a hurry to do so. Instead, he watched the Immortal Essence Pills gather outside the pot without dispersing.
This time, the ingredients used for the elemental food cultivators were much more than the last time. Gu Zheng had added 20 elixirs from the Kongkong Sect's treasure. According to the Artifact Spirit, even if it was only like this, the grade of the elemental food cultivators this time would reach middle-grade! The medicinal effect was not comparable to the low-grade elixir from the last time. Moreover, Gu Zheng still had the dragon bone that had not been added. Once the dragon bone was added at the right time, the medicinal effect of the elemental food cultivators would increase a lot!
"Now is the time."
Seeing that the Immortal Essence Pills that had gathered outside the pot were showing signs of dissipating under the urging of the Fire Control Art, Gu Zheng placed the processed dragon bone into the pot.
"Roar!"
A dragon-like roar came from the pot. The Immortal Essence Pills that had been about to dissipate seemed to have been injected with new vitality. They gathered above the soup and took the form of a tornado.
After about 20 seconds, the tornado turned into a small white dragon. It was exactly the same as the one he had seen at the Dragon Battle Plaza. It danced back and forth around the pot. Its mist-like body seemed to contain a powerful energy.
It was time to withdraw. Gu Zheng frowned. The Fire Control Art made the flames seem solid. They stuck close to the bottom of the pot and were not hurried or impatient. The Water Control Art made the soup in the pot form a whirlpool. The small dragon that had been floating above the soup was like a wild dragon entering the sea as it plunged headfirst into the whirlpool.
A strange fragrance wafted out of the pot. It smelled refreshing. The small dragon formed by the Immortal Essence Pills had already disappeared. The originally black soup had also turned white because of the dragon bone.
Gu Zheng's heart stirred slightly. The way he used the Water Control Art changed. The originally scalding soup immediately cooled down to a suitable temperature.
