FenXiang Valley.
TianXiang Residence.
This was a quiet place deep in FenXiang Valley, built close to the mountain range. Three sides were surrounded by towering walls, only the front door was ajar, making it hard to see the situation inside. Even though FenXiang Valley had undergone such a huge change these few days but in the vicinity, there were still no FenXiang Valley disciples roaming about, because this was FenXiang Valley master Yun YiLan's residence, and also his closed door cultivation place.
Ever since Yun YiLan started his closed door cultivation, this place forbade all FenXiang Valley disciples from entering, of course the FenXiang Valley disciples outside naturally guarded like an iron wall. And those who were able to enter TianXiang Residence, other than ShangGuan Ce whom Yun YiLan heavily relied on, only his direct disciple LiXun could enter and meet his teacher. As for the rest, including the elders like LuShun and the rest, they were also prohibited from entering.
Even when FenXiang Valley Inferno Altar was infiltrated, the suppressed Nine-tailed celestial fox for three hundred years was released, even the legendary FenXiang Valley treasure Inferno Mirror could possibly appear, Yun YiLan actually did not come out, only let ShangGuan Ce take charge of the situation. In that small courtyard, what exactly was he doing?
This question, lingered in the minds of many FenXiang Valley disciples. The sky gradually brightened, ShangGuan Ce in the slightly humid morning air, gently pushed open this door, walked in and then closed the door. Appearing in front of him, was a small courtyard that he was already familiar with, a few Bodhi trees, gently swaying their branches in the morning breeze, other than a small path in the middle, the surroundings were all green grass. Other than that, there was nothing else.
The leader of one of the three great Good Faction sects, his residence seemed to be simple to the extent of simplicity. At the end of the small path, there was a small house with white tiles and grey walls, built against the mountain, the door made of paulownia wood painted purple, similarly ajar. ShangGuan Ce walked over, pushed the door open and closed it again. The surroundings immediately quietened down, as if all the worldly disturbances were shut out by him with a raise of his hand. In the room, there was no one, only a few simple furniture, on the tables and chairs, there seemed to be a thin layer of dust. ShangGuan Ce composed himself, walked straight into the room, came to a cabinet, pulled open the left drawer, put his hand in and seemed to turn something, after a moment, a low voice was heard from behind him.
The entire wall slowly retreated to the right, revealing the hard rock of the mountain wall and a secret passage that was only wide enough for one person to walk through. ShangGuan Ce did not hesitate, walked in, not long after his figure disappeared into the secret tunnel, the door slowly closed again, not a trace could be seen. In the dark passage, there were pebbles the size of pebbles embedded in them at intervals to illuminate the surroundings. As he walked, he didn't feel stuffy at all. Naturally, there was another ventilation channel here. This secret passage was not long, and he soon reached his destination. It was a stone room that was about the same size as the room outside. There was nothing in the stone chamber except for a screen in the middle, blocking his view.
Suddenly, an extremely old voice came from behind the screen, "Is that Junior Brother Shangguan?" ShangGuan Ce walked two steps forward, stopped about four, five steps away from the screen, respectfully said, "Yes, senior brother, how is your body?" That voice seemed to be the world renowned FenXiang Valley Master Yun YiLan, just that for some reason, this Good Faction giant who was on par with Qing Yun Sect Reverend DaoXuan and TianYin Temple PuHong Master, right now sounded like a dying old man whose essence was scattered and his vital energy was lacking. He was heard laughing quietly, indifferently said, "My body? Can I still get up, just like this, slowly wait for death. "
ShangGuan Ce's expression changed, his expression complicated, he was about to speak but was cut off by Yun YiLan's weak voice, "How is the matter?" ShangGuan Ce was silent for a moment, said, "Roughly found out, the one who instigated the human fish people that night, was Evil Sect HeHuan Sect Jin PingEr, most likely because in the death marsh, HeHuan Sect disciples were killed by the human fish people, so she took revenge." Yun YiLan was silent for a moment behind the screen, his voice suddenly deepened, said, "Then did she detect our secret plan?" ShangGuan Ce's body suddenly paused, just at this moment, the voice behind the screen was suddenly filled with majesty. "From what I see, not yet."
"That's good," Yun YiLan was obviously relieved, said, "Otherwise if the matter is leaked out, many years of hard work, will inevitably go to waste." ShangGuan Ce nodded and said, "Senior brother don't worry." Yun YiLan paused, said, "That person who sneaked into the Inferno Altar and released the Nine-tailed celestial fox evildoer, have you found out?" ShangGuan Ce said, "Last night Li Xun Shizhi and Ke Ruhui tracked Jin PingEr near TianShui Stockade, heard from him this morning that Evil Sect Ghost King Sect Ghost Li also appeared there, ambushed and caused Ke Ruhui to be killed. Luckily last night Jadeon Anan, who came to southern border to ask Master Doyal Shen about Shixiong, passed by and lent a helping hand, then they were able to escape from the two evil people's pincer attack. " "Ghost Li?" Yun YiLan's voice paused, said, "Don't tell me it is that Zhang Xiao Fan who betrayed Jadeon ten years ago?" ShangGuan Ce nodded, said, "That is that person, that year Jadeon battle shook the world, Zhang Xiao Fan betrayed Jadeon, in a short ten years his cultivation improved greatly, now he is already the number one general under Master Vim's command."
Yun YiLan snorted, said, "That old fellow Doyal Shen is getting old, his head is also a little muddled, he has such a talent but can't use it." ShangGuan Ce smiled, then said, "Li Xun Shizhi came back and said, he suspected that the person who sneaked into Inferno Altar that night was Ghost Li, and to save Nine-tailed Celestial Fox, without our FenXiang Valley's secret incantation, only the Inferno Mirror with the Thousand Fire Essence can release the Inferno Seal. From his point of view, most likely the Inferno Mirror is with Ghost Li. "
Yun YiLan was silent for a while, suddenly said, "What do you think?" ShangGuan Ce behind the screen, his face changed, after a moment respectfully said, "I also think it is highly possible." Yun YiLan's voice, came from behind the screen, said, "That year when I met Old Taoist Doyal Shen, he boasted that he was a righteous sect, always had the thought of letting go, not killing wrongly, and praised me with that, do you still remember?" ShangGuan Ce was startled, did not know why Yun YiLan suddenly brought up this long ago matter but he could only nod and said, "That's right, I was also beside senior brother at that time, I remember clearly, Reverend Doyal Shen indeed said so."
Yun YiLan smiled faintly, said, "But ten years ago, on Qing Yun Hill TongTian Peak, when he used Zhu Xian ancient sword to strike that disciple called Zhang XiaoFan, what was his mood? I'm afraid he would rather kill wrongly than let go! "ShangGuan Ce was speechless. Yun YiLan quietly laughed and then said, "You go! This matter, it is better for you to take charge. " ShangGuan Ce hesitated for a moment, but still asked, "Then Ghost Li …" Yun YiLan's voice was clearly heard from behind the screen. "Rather kill wrongly than let go!" ShangGuan Ce's face muscles twitched, then he nodded and said, "Yes." After speaking, he turned and left. Not long after, his figure disappeared in the secret passage, the next moment, a deep sound of a mechanism was heard, evidently he had opened the secret door and left. In the silent stone room, Yun YiLan's laughter suddenly rang out, carrying a trace of desolation, as well as a trace of mockery, "You pushed all your thoughts onto Xun 'er, saying that it was his deduction, do you think I don't know? Three hundred years ago you failed in your duty and lost the Inferno Mirror, but three hundred years later, junior brother ah! You still did not improve! "
"He he, he he …" the desolate and desolate laughter, in the cold stone chamber, slowly reverberated. Leaving Tian Xiang Residence, ShangGuan Ce walked out of that door, for some reason, with his level of cultivation, he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. He calmed himself down, muttered to himself for a moment, and then walked outside. Along the way, he was familiar with the twists and turns, and arrived in front of a majestic palace hall. On the signboard hung three words: Mountain River Hall. This name matched with this lofty and majestic hall, it really had some taste of looking down on the world, not sure if it was because when the FenXiang Valley ancestors built this hall to receive guests, they also thought that one day, the taste of being the best in the world.
ShangGuan Ce thought in his heart, slowly walked in. There were people sitting in the hall, other than the FenXiang Valley disciples standing at the side, the guests were mainly Good Faction people who came to pay their respects, there were about a dozen of them, Li Xun was sitting with them. And in ShangGuan Ce's eyes, the most important ones, were actually the two people sitting at the top. Lu XueQi. FaXiang. These two outstanding disciples of the two famous sects, came from the sects behind them, therefore although their ages were not as high as the other elders but their positions were instead in front.
