Everyone looked at him, and he gradually raised his head. He looked at everyone with a pair of obviously weak eyes, and … the surrounding environment.
When he saw the people around him and the different environment, his eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had the hope of being resurrected. He immediately asked in a muffled voice, "Have I … been saved?!"
Although Lu An was right in front of him, he did not answer. Instead, he returned to the surroundings. Huang Ding knew that Lu An did not want to be in the limelight, so he said directly, "You've been saved. Who are you? Why are you being held captive in the Hidden Heaven Sect? "
Hearing the word 'saved', the man was so excited that he wanted to laugh out loud. However, he could not laugh out loud with his current physical condition. His breath came up and turned into a violent cough. However, he could not stop smiling. He said excitedly while coughing, "The heavens have not forsaken me! The heavens have not forsaken me! "
The surrounding people did not speak. After all, this person had just been saved. It was normal for his emotions to be unstable. Anyone who had been tortured for hundreds of years would not feel good. It was a miracle that his heart did not break down.
After about ten breaths, Huang Ding opened his mouth again and asked, "Who are you? Are you also a member of the sect? "
The man's body shook when he heard that. He could finally hear Huang Ding's words. He looked at the people around him. After sensing that they were all level nine Heavenly Masters, his eyes were filled with shock. He shook his head and said, "I'm not a member of the sect. I'm just a wild crane … Are you all from the sect?"
Not a member of the sect?
All the sect masters and sect leaders present were shocked. To be able to cultivate to the ninth level of Heavenly Master without entering the sect, although it was not impossible, the possibility was too low. Even the level nine Heavenly Masters in the Deep Sea Alliance were mostly defectors from the sect. There were very few who had never entered the sect and cultivated outside to become a level nine Heavenly Master.
No matter what, the resources and wealth of any force outside could not be compared to the sect, let alone the collection of an individual. Unless this person was extremely lucky and obtained the inheritance and wealth of someone who used to be very powerful. The fact that this person could cultivate outside to become a level nine Heavenly Master was enough to prove his talent. In addition, he had the ability to use divine sense. He was definitely not to be underestimated!
"My name is Song Mingzhe." The man took a deep breath to ease his breathing and immediately said, "I've been cultivating by myself all this time. Thank you for your help this time. If there's a chance, I'll repay you with my life!"
"Then how were you captured?" Huang Ding asked with a frown.
"This …" Thinking of the past, Song Mingzhe's expression became very serious. He gritted his teeth and said, "Back then, I needed a kind of material to practice martial arts, but I couldn't find it no matter how hard I tried, so I went to the Four Great Empires to buy it. The materials I need can only be used by Level Nine Heavenly Masters. Furthermore, the Hidden Heaven Sect happens to be in charge of that country. Perhaps this point attracted their attention. At that time, after the delivery, someone followed me. "
"At that time, I also felt that the other party was a level nine Heavenly Master, so I directly opened the teleportation array in the imperial capital and left. However, I didn't expect that this person would dare to follow me and rush into my teleportation array!" Song Mingzhe said angrily, "The place where I lived was an uninhabited mountain range. After he chased me out, he attacked me. I couldn't beat him, so I got caught. "
"…"
After hearing this person's words, everyone took a deep breath. Chang Long and Ke Guoqiao were both sect members, so they definitely had to return to their respective sects to recuperate. However, this Song Mingzhe wasn't a sect member. How should they deal with him?
Let him go?
To be honest, it was a pity to let a level nine Heavenly Master go just like that. Furthermore, if they really let him go, with the chaos outside and his serious injuries, he might not be able to survive.
At this moment, everyone looked at Lu An. After all, this person was saved by Lu An's people. How to deal with this person was up to Lu An.
Seeing everyone looking at him, Lu An didn't remain silent. Instead, he said calmly, "My Ice Fire League and Celestial League won't take this person in. I won't interfere in this matter either. If anyone wants to take him in, I won't interfere."
Don't want him?
Everyone was stunned. A level nine Heavenly Master actually didn't want him?
Lu An indeed didn't want him. The reason was very simple. This person wasn't from another human race and wasn't qualified to join the Celestial League. However, the Ice Fire League didn't have a level nine Heavenly Master. If he and Yao both became level nine Heavenly Masters, he might have a slight chance to let this person in.
To put it bluntly, he didn't trust this person.
It was only the first time they met. Without careful observation, he couldn't rashly put a person who was stronger than himself and his family into the Ice Fire League. It wasn't safe, and he couldn't rest assured.
Lu An's attitude was obviously very firm. Everyone present could more or less guess what Lu An was thinking. To be honest, it wasn't safe to suddenly put a level nine Heavenly Master from outside into their own sect. Moreover, it was a person who had been tortured for three hundred years. It was still unknown whether his emotions could be stable.
"In that case, I'll find a place for you to recuperate first. After your injuries are healed, we'll talk about it slowly." Huang Ding thought seriously and said, "Also, you've been imprisoned for so many years. You definitely don't know the current situation of the Eight Ancient Continents."
Hearing this, the three of them were stunned. Then, they all nodded. Actually, from the moment they woke up, their hearts had been in shock. The reason was simple. There were so many level nine Heavenly Masters present, and each of them had a very strong aura. Moreover, from the conversation just now, it seemed that each of them came from an ordinary sect! Why did so many level nine Heavenly Masters from different sects gather together? This was something that had never happened in their sect!
Also, through the window, they could see a huge stone wall in the distance. This meant that this hall was underground. When had the sect ever been so shameful? Not to mention so many sects? What was going on?
Huang Ding took a light breath and told them everything that had happened in the past two years. As level nine Heavenly Masters, they were qualified to know about the existence of the Hachiko clan. Moreover, the Hachiko clan had retired, so Huang Ding directly told them. When the three of them heard that the Hachiko clan had retreated, the strange sea beasts had launched a large-scale attack. The entire continent had been invaded, and all the sects had to hide underground to survive, they were all dumbfounded!
If even the sects were like that, then wouldn't the entire human world be like that …
"That's the gist of it. I'll tell you the details later." Huang Ding said.
"What about the Hidden Sky Sect?" Ke Guoqiao gritted his teeth and said, "Where are they? Are they also in the sect alliance?! "
"…"
Everyone looked at each other. Mo Ce opened his mouth and said in a deep voice, "Before today, they were, but from today onwards, they are not. We didn't know that the Hidden Sky Sect had done such a heinous thing. We will track them down as soon as possible and catch them all in one fell swoop! "
Hearing Mo Ce's words, everyone nodded. However, many of them frowned even more. Ye Fire Sect, Guang You Sect, and the Hidden Sky Sect had left the alliance one after another. The Hidden Sky Sect's strength was definitely not something that the Ye Fire Sect and Guang You Sect could compare to. According to Chang Long and Ke Guoqiao, the Hidden Sky Sect might have spies in many sects to discover peak level eight Heavenly Masters who were about to break through. If the Hidden Sky Sect cooperated with the Strange Beasts and wanted to harm the sects, the consequences would be unimaginable.
The world was too big. It was impossible for them to leave through the underground. Catching the Hidden Sky Sect was almost a joke. On the contrary, it would be good enough if they could protect themselves.
At this moment, the Six Paths Sect's Sect Master, Zhou Baiqing, and the Hundred Weapons Sect's Sect Master, Du Ji, turned to face Lu An. Zhou Baiqing cupped his hands and said, "Alliance Master Lu saved Brother Chang. I am very grateful! I hope Alliance Master Lu doesn't take offense. If you need anything in the future, my Six Paths Sect will do anything to help! "
"Me too!" Du Ji cupped his hands and said, "I will also send a batch of weapons and armor as a thank you gift. I hope Alliance Master Lu doesn't mind!"
Lu An looked at the two. The Ice Fire Alliance and the Hundred Weapons Sect were originally in a cooperative relationship. He did have some conflicts with Zhou Baiqing, but it was only a small matter. If he treated Zhou Baiqing as an enemy because of this small matter, then everyone in the world would be his enemy.
"Alright." Lu An cupped his hands and said to the two, "Then I won't be polite."
Next, everyone began to discuss the whereabouts of the Hidden Sky Sect, as well as the possibility and characteristics of the spies that the Hidden Sky Sect had planted in each sect.
