Chapter 1266 Xi!

Central Region, Guizhe Holy Mountain, Shenghuan Palace.

Just as Dao Qiongcang landed on the Void Island, he fell into the sight of the water ghost.

Not long after, a black shadow was outlined outside the majestic meeting hall of the ten-member meeting group of the Holy Mountain headquarters, and it turned into a black-clothed figure with a vague shape.

"An urgent report from the other department!"

The voice of the person who came was a little urgent, but his mood was stable.

Without permission, except for the six heads of the six departments, no one else is qualified to enter the Shenghuan Palace.

So even if it is extremely urgent, the strict rules of Guizhe Holy Mountain cannot be broken.

In the huge Shenghuan Palace, there are only two people sitting on high-backed chairs of different heights beside the silver round table.

One is Ai Cangsheng, who is sitting on a mottled osmanthus wood wheelchair, with black hair draped over his shoulders, his eyes are like the moon, and his edge is hidden. There is a black cloth covering his knees, and a bow and arrow are slung across his body. He is silent.

One is a woman in a yellow dress in a palace dress, dignified and elegant, with black hairpins and jade tassels, and an ethereal and illusory body, as if she does not exist. She is the spirit of Jiujigui.

"Enter."

As soon as the soft female voice sounded, the black-clothed man outside the hall immediately stood up and stepped into the Shenghuan Hall.

The vast hall was empty.

However, the two people sitting at the side of the round table, even if they did not speak, their momentum alone was enough to fill the hall.

When the black-clothed man from the other department saw the two saints, his heartbeat slowed down immediately, as if a big stone had fallen, and he was no longer panicked.

"Greetings, Lord Cangsheng! Greetings, the Nine Sacrifices!"

"What's the matter? Tell me."

"Yes, the Nine Sacrifices." The man in black bowed and quickly reported:

"According to the intelligence of the Yi Department, just now, a total of 36 branches of the Holy Temple distributed in the five regions of the continent were attacked at the same time."

"Among them, the attackers of 12 branches are still unknown, and the attackers of the remaining 24 branches are from various dark forces. Tracing back to the source, they are more or less related to the Holy Slave."

"From this, the Yi Department speculated that this attack was led by the Holy Slave and came from the... from the hands of the Eighth Lord."

The man in black finished the internal investigation results in just a few words, and then looked up at the two saints.

If it were other forces on the mainland, they might not be able to recover for a long time after encountering such an attack. Who is the sudden attacker?

But the Yi Department has the most comprehensive intelligence network on the mainland, combined with the various performances of these attacking forces in the past.

Not only did he quickly figure out the result, but he also clearly assigned some dark forces whose affiliations were previously uncertain to the Saint Slave.

After that, he could uproot them!

The man in black knew that the big shots had limited time, so he reported mainly the results.

The specific process and details would only be discussed if the two saints asked.

However, unexpectedly, the man in black did not see any surprised expressions on the two saints' faces.

It was as if they knew all these things.

The eight masters... Jiuji Gui's spirit body turned his eyes and glanced at Ai Cangsheng, with a smile in his beautiful eyes, "Here they come."

Here they come?

The man in black was stunned.

Did they really know that they would be attacked?

Yes, we have the Taoist master, and the Taoist master must have calculated it in advance...

"What is the specific distribution?" Jiuji Gui's spirit body saw that Ai Cangsheng's face was slightly cold, and did not answer, so he turned back and asked again.

"Sixteen royal cities in the East, eight royal cities in the Central, six in the South, three in the North, and three in the West were attacked at the same time!"

"They are all royal cities. It seems that they have been planned for a long time..."

"Yes, the four royal cities in the Central were attacked. We have quelled the rebellion as soon as possible, but the rest, especially those in the East and South, may not be quelled for a while."

"That's natural. The main force of the Holy Slave is in the East, and the Sin Land in the South is not stable. It's good that you can quell the four places in the first time."

The man in black remained silent and did not respond.

He did not say directly that those that could not be quelled would be broken through at a very fast speed, and even the branch halls would be destroyed in the end.

The attack came too suddenly.

I don't know how many people will be killed and injured after this battle.

Alas, when will this world usher in true peace?

"Pass on this palace's order, and immediately mobilize the branch halls of the Holy Temple near the war, as well as the highest forces in the major royal cities and major lands to rush to the rescue. There must be no mistakes, and those who disobey the order will be punished."

The Jiuji Gui spirit body could see the worry in the black-clothed child's eyes. With a slender hand, the "Jiuji Order" turned into golden light and flew out.

The black-clothed man reached out and took it, lowering his eyes to look.

This is a "God's Envoy Order" made of golden osmanthus wood, which has the aura of the holy power of the Jiuji God's Envoy.

Mobilizing all the major forces with this order is like holding the semi-saint's profound decree in hand, and no one in the world dares to disobey.

"Yes!"

The black-clothed man shouted heavily and was about to retreat with the token in his pocket.

"The order will be passed on by others, and you stay." Ai Cangsheng suddenly spoke.

The black-clothed man was slightly startled, and nodded in response.

Under his big black hood, the only eyes left covered by the dark mask suddenly lit up with a dark green light.

Soon, a black gas rose up beside him, and turned into an illusory ghost, holding the order and leaving the Holy Huan Palace.

"What do you want, Lord Cangsheng?" The man in black spoke.

Jiuji Gui's spirit body looked at the man in black in surprise, as if he was moved by his ability.

But he didn't say much, and then raised his eyes to glance at Ai Cangsheng.

She only heard Dao Qiongcang say that there might be chaos in the Holy Land, most likely from the Eight Zun An.

But she didn't know the specific details.

Ai Cangsheng often played with Dao Qiongcang, so he thought he knew more.

On the osmanthus wood wheelchair, Ai Cangsheng put his hands on the black cloth on his legs and said calmly:

"The Great Desert Ridge in the Western Region, the Half Moon Residence in the Southern Region, the Heavenly Alliance in the Northern Region, the Cangyue Fairy City in the Eastern Region, the Siling Mountain in the Central Region, the Cross Street Corner of the City of Dead Buddhas, and the Dead Sea under the Holy Mountain, what are the abnormalities?"

Seven in a row, such accurate reports?

The man in black was stunned for a moment, and immediately replied: "I haven't received any..."

"Don't wait, now, take the initiative to pay attention."

"Yes!"

The man in black shuddered.

Even though Lord Cangsheng's tone was calm, he still felt the coldness in his heart.

This is not an easy-going existence like the Nine Sacrifices God Envoy, but one of the Ten Thrones he has long admired.

Once the answer is wrong, it is possible that his life will be lost.

The man in black pinched his fingers with one hand and made a sword finger, and the dark light in his eyes flashed again.

Soon, another ghost appeared.

The man in black opened his lips silently, muttering something, and instructing something.

The ghost shook and disappeared.

"Master Yi..."

The man in black sighed as he sent the messenger ghost away with his peripheral vision.

Originally, the person who should be in his position now should be Master Yi, the leader of the Yi tribe.

Unfortunately, the leader died in the Yunlun Mountains, and now he has to face the two saints.

"What's your name?"

Jiujigui glanced at the cold Ai Cangsheng kid and knew that he didn't need to be polite anymore.

She turned around and took the initiative to speak to break the ice, with a hint of curiosity in her eyes, "This is the first time I see you."

"Report to the Nine Sacrifices Envoy, my code name is 'Xi'."

"Xi?" Jiuji Gui's spirit body felt that the name was familiar, "Little Xi, what is your position in the Yi Department?"

"Report to the Nine Sacrifices Envoy, I was the deputy of the Yi Department's chief, Lord Yi, and now I am acting as the chief of the Yi Department."

"Acting chief? You don't look very old, right?"

"Report..."

"No need to be so restrained."

"Okay, Nine Sacrifices Envoy! Report to the Nine Sacrifices Envoy, I just turned twenty this year."

"..." Jiuji Gui's spirit body opened her red lips slightly, and a smile flashed in her eyes, and she was even more surprised.

There is no doubt that "respect" and "humility" are engraved in this young man's bones.

This kid must have suffered a lot in his growth experience...

But at the age of twenty, he is the acting chief of six departments!

"You are younger than Situ Yongren..." Jiuji Gui's spirit whispered, as if he saw a genius.

"I dare not!" The black-clothed man Xi was shocked, "I am just a temporary agent, and I dare not compare with Lord Situ."

Jiuji Gui's spirit took a deep look at the little friend and stopped talking.

She just thought of it suddenly.

There are actually many talents on the Holy Mountain of Guizhe.

But the Holy Temple has been passed down to this day, and the top positions are basically filled, and they are all a group of old monsters.

Once they sit, they have been in office for dozens or hundreds of years.

Unless there is an unexpected accident, there are few updates.

Naturally, under the major positions, generation after generation, countless talents have been suppressed and hidden in unknown corners.

These people are not weak.

But they cannot show up because of their shallow background, someone above them, or lack of ability and other miscellaneous reasons.

Naturally, their brilliance cannot be seen by the world.

For example, if You Tu had not climbed the Holy Mountain of Guizhe, if the Seven Swordsmen had not taken over the position of the Lord of the Holy Temple.

No one would have known that Dao Qiongcang, who was basically unknown before and had only a small title of the Tenth Lord, would be so outstanding.

As soon as he took office, he liberated all the brains of the Holy Temple and held the Holy Continent in his palm!

Now, isn't the situation the same?

When the head of the Yi Department died, the top position was vacant, and someone could fill it immediately.

But unexpectedly...

The Yi Department has many talents, and there should be many people who are older, more powerful, and more capable than Xi.

How can he, a 20-year-old kid, suppress the batch after batch of geniuses above him and get the position of the acting head?

Jiuji Gui's spirit body knows it.

Among the six departments, there are many children, middle-aged friends, and older friends who come from the five great Saint Emperor families for training!

At this time, Ai Cangsheng's attention seemed to be attracted by the age of the man in black.

He frowned and said in a concentrated voice: "Anbu, there seems to be a 'Xi' too..."

"What 'Xi', is it the same name?" Jiuji Gui's spirit looked back.

"I don't know, a very outstanding assassin in the Anbu, working under Ye Xiao."

"I have heard of his name, but it is because he carries out tasks neatly and has successfully assassinated Taixu many times, and has never failed so far."

"I heard that he also took over the task of investigating the half-saint of the Black Heart Fruit Clan... He is also from Sanzhuxiang."

Ai Cangsheng's face moved slightly, and he looked at the black-clothed man Xi.

The latter was unmoved, and his eyes were calm. It should not be the same person.

Yes, how can he be twenty years old to investigate the half-saint Zang?

That should be an old pearl accumulated in the Anbu, who is older than himself, and it is possible that he is from the previous generation or the previous generation.

"The Black Heart Fruit Clan..."

"Is it the Southern Region Semi-Saint that Ban Yue Ju had contacted before?"

Jiu Ji Gui's spirit body seemed to remember something, and murmured thoughtfully: "Now that you mention it, I also remember that there is such a person in the Anbu, Xi..."

She was direct. She asked when she couldn't figure it out, and looked at the child in black standing in front of the threshold of the hall.

"Little guy, that Xi has the same name as you, do you recognize him?"

"know."

"Oh? What is his relationship with you?"

"He is me."

At this moment, the expressions of Jiu Ji Gui Ling Bo and Ai Cang Sheng changed slightly.

With such a calm and matter-of-fact answer, the two of them almost thought they had heard wrong.

"Is he you?" Jiujigui Spirit Body confirmed.

"The envoy of the Nine Sacrifice, he is me." The man in black said again.

The two people at the silver round table looked at each other and saw the waves in each other's eyes.

This young man has something...

"What's your position in the Anbu Department?" Jiuji Gui Lingti asked.

"Reporting to the Divine Envoy of the Nine Sacrifice, her subordinate serves as Lord Ye Xiao's deputy in the ANBU. Before leaving for the mission, she handed over the ANBU to her subordinate."

It's the deputy again... Jiuji Gui's spirit body opened its red lips and said directly: "Ye Xiao has been confirmed to have died."

There are jade tablets of the six first ones in the Holy Temple. Whether they survive or not can be known at a glance.

Not long ago, the jade tokens belonging to Teng Shanhai and Ye Xiao were shattered one after another.

But this news has not been spread yet.

"Yes."

The man in black laughed at the sound, with a trace of sorrow flashing in his eyes, "So my subordinate's task is even heavier."

"So, in addition to the foreign department, you also serve as the acting head of the ANBU?"

"Reporting to the Nine Sacrifice Divine Envoy, yes."

"call……"

Jiujigui Spirit Body let out a soft chuckle, somewhat shocked.

Such a humble kid has so much ability and background!

If she hadn't asked, she would have thought he was just a casual messenger, which was too low-key.

Are all the children today so inconspicuous?

"You just sent the message, did you use ghost swordsmanship?" Ai Cangsheng said suddenly.

"Lord Cangsheng, yes."

"Are you an ancient sword cultivator?"

"Lord Cangsheng, yes."

"Who are you, Hua Changdeng?" Ai Cangsheng asked one after another, his eyes like arrows, almost piercing through the soul of the man in black.

Xi paused for a moment, his gaze remained the same as before, and he said calmly:

"Lord Cangsheng, this subordinate has no relationship with the Sword Saint of China."

The upper body of Jiuji Gui's spiritual body, which was slightly leaning forward, slowly retracted.

She just heard what the kid Ai Cangsheng said, and she really thought that this kid Xi was a direct disciple of Hua Changdeng.

In this way, there is the best explanation for his age and disproportionate ability.

Now when I heard what little boy Xi said, I felt regretful and at the same time felt that this young man had a promising future.

Even more powerful!

Sitting on Guimu's wheelchair, Dudu Ai Cang Sheng looked deeply at the man in black and raised the corners of his lips slightly.

These words can deceive the Nine Sacrifice Divine Envoy, but how can they deceive him?

If others are not familiar with Huachang Deng, don’t they understand that he loves the common people?

The ancient sword cultivators are all extremely boring!

The humility and respect that were engraved in his bones from Xi could already be thought of how much suffering this boy had suffered under Hua Changdeng's sword.

Even if he thought about it, he could imitate Hua Changdeng's tone and say something that that guy would definitely say:

"As far as your current achievements are concerned, you can't even compare with one of the fingers of the Eight Masters! When you leave the screen, don't say you are my disciple, otherwise you will be embarrassed."

Ai Cangsheng did not expose it, shook his head, and leaned back on the back of the wheelchair.

He looked up at the sky, and thoughts emerged in his eyes, as if he had already seen the sloppy ancient sword cultivator who clearly had the power to reach the sky under the broken willow lamp in the screen candle field, but chose to spend half his life ruining it.

No matter how far his eyes were, Ai Cangsheng seemed to have seen through Dao Qiongcang's plan.

"Tao Qiong Cang, Tao Qing Cang..."

Previously, Ai Cangsheng didn't understand why so many people had to be sent to this round, one by one, even though they knew they would lose.

It's understandable to kill someone with a borrowed knife.

Borrow the enemy's knife to kill one of your own, see you for the first time!

Now, I understand love for the common people.

The backlog will turn to dust and the leaders whose potential has been exhausted will not be cleared away.

Buried underneath, the outstanding young man will never see the light of day.

Those huge resources, if given to Teng Shanhai and Yi, would only achieve limited results.

After all, their future can be seen at a glance.

But if it is given to the following young people, the future is bright!

Just looking at the young man Xi Xi, His Highness Shenghuan, with his eyes that love the common people, it seems that he has already seen the talent that is about to burst out of the Holy Temple.

He understood that the size of the Holy Temple was too large, and if it lay down for too long, it would be like an old tree drooping and it would be difficult to lift its crown.

And now, Dao Qiongcang is going to make a big move!

What he wants is to cut off those old and dead branches so that this old tree can glow with new spring!

"The heavens are unpredictable...heh, it has to be you!"

When I love the common people, my heart sighs.

The man in black in front of the hall suddenly moved, and the dark sword in his eyes under the mask condensed.

A ghost appeared behind him, blended into his body, and saluted:

"Lord Cangsheng, the envoy of the Nine Sacrifice, we have information."
