Chapter 2290 Entering the Forbidden Area in the Back Mountain
Heaven and earth are silent.
People's hearts were churning and they couldn't come back to their senses for a long time.
Previously, with the defeat of the Great Elder, everyone in the Qingwu Divine Court thought that the defeat was certain and that there was no way to save the day.
Even the headmaster took out ten pieces of purple gold phoenix jade and handed them to Yan Shui Ming.
Who would have thought that Xiao Jian, the deputy master of Yeyou Palace who had just returned from traveling outside, would turn the tide and turn things around!
This is so unexpected.
In particular, Yan Shui Ming was still defeated by one blow. Not to mention those sect disciples, even those old antiques were dumbfounded and confused.
Previously, the Great Elder who was practicing at the level of God Master was defeated by Yan Shui Ming.
Afterwards, Yan Shui Ming, a high-ranking creature in the Creation Realm, was defeated by Xiao Jian.
The contrast between before and after is undoubtedly too strong.
It also seemed particularly shocking.
Outside the mountain gate.
Yan Shuiming also didn't expect that his trip to Qingwu Divine Court would have an accident at the last minute.
What's more, I didn't expect that I would actually lose to a mid-level god in one move.
For a moment, he looked a little dazed, standing there blankly, completely forgetting the pain all over his body.
"It's time to return the things."
Su Yi reminded.
Such a battle, even if he wins, makes him feel meaningless, and naturally there is no sense of accomplishment.
Suddenly, the smoke and water were as dark as waking up from a dream.
He took a deep look at Su Yi and sighed: "My master is right. Before the advent of the Dark Age of Mythology, all kinds of monsters that defy the heavens will be born one after another."
"Given the strength of fellow Taoist, he has never become famous in the world of God's Domain. This shows how low-key he is."
A sentiment that comes from the bottom of my heart.
He really didn't expect that he would meet such a guy who was more evil than himself in Qingwu Divine Court.
Simply outrageous.
Everyone in Qingwu Divine Court also had mixed emotions.
They all recognized Xiao Jian, but... they didn't know that Xiao Jian's combat power was so terrifying that it was so shocking.
Yan Shui Ming took out the bronze box containing ten pieces of purple gold, phoenix and jade and handed it to Su Yi.
He was also very happy and willing to admit defeat, saying: "I said before that if I lose, you can make any demands. As long as I can satisfy you, I will never frown."
Naturally, Su Yi was not polite and said directly: "I heard that you won the Toad Palace laurel tree in the Red Dust Demonic Land, just give it to me."
Everyone gasped.
Toad Palace Osmanthus Tree, this is the first-class innate divine creature in the world!
Yan Shui's eyes twitched, and then he smiled bitterly and said: "That's all, since fellow Taoist named you for this thing, I should hand it over."
As he spoke, he took out a palm-sized green bamboo basket and threw it to Su Yi from a distance.
"The laurel tree in the Toad Palace is among them. The bamboo basket is just a small thing. I gave it to fellow Taoists as well."
Su Yi took it and took a look. The bamboo basket was a world of its own, with a laurel tree only nine feet high rooted in it.
The osmanthus branches are dense, the moonlight is shining, and the magnificent and dreamlike chaotic mist is surging, which is quite magical.
This is indeed the Toad Palace laurel tree, a rare treasure that is almost impossible to find.
"Thank you."
Su Yi put away the bamboo basket.
"Thank me for what I did. If you win, this treasure will naturally be yours."
Yan Shui Ming laughed at himself, raised his hand, and the liger that had been waiting in the distance flew over with an auspicious cloud.
Yan Shui Ming turned over and sat on it, about to leave.
A voice suddenly sounded in my ears:
"Excuse me, I would like to ask, why do you want to win this laurel tree from the mortal world?"
It was Su Yi who spoke.
Yan Shui was stunned for a moment, and then replied via voice transmission: "It is said that this is the treasure left by Yi Daoxuan in the world, and I am very interested in it. As for the reason... I can't tell you."
Su Yi nodded, already understanding in his heart that the other party was indeed coming for him!
Otherwise, why bother?
Yan Shui Ming didn't stay any longer and rode the liger through the air.
Su Yi said nothing more and turned around and walked towards the mountain gate.
boom!
At this moment, the originally silent atmosphere was broken, and thundering cheers rang out from all over the Qingwu Divine Court.
The sky is filled with boiling water.
People were smiling.
Many people couldn't help but take the initiative to welcome him, just like greeting a victorious general.
In the eyes of most people in Qingwu Divine Court, Su Yi's battle was not only as simple as winning, but also helped them save their face and the prestige of Qingwu Divine Court!
To them, Su Yi at this moment is the sect's biggest hero! !
Soon, people gathered around Su Yi like stars over the moon and welcomed him into the mountain gate.
Headmaster Liang Lingxu watched this scene from a distance, his eyes full of coldness.
In this battle, Su Yi really ensured the sect's reputation.
But Su Yi's exposed combat power made Liang Lingxu feel a strong threat.
He also became more and more convinced that there was something wrong with Su Yi’s identity! !
"Later, let him come to Haotian Temple alone to see me."
After a moment of silence, Liang Lingxu gave the order.
…
at the same time--
Yan Shui Ming sighed as he rode away on the liger: "Master, things went wrong this time. Even the Toad Palace laurel tree was taken away."
A palm-sized auspicious cloud suddenly appeared above the liger's head.
On the auspicious cloud, an old man only four inches in size was lying there lazily, holding a peanut-like wine gourd in one hand and drinking wine.
He was chubby, with snow-white beard and hair, red cheeks, drunken eyes, and a very lazy manner.
Xu Zui Zhen!
The Lord of the Zixia Cave, an unknown place.
He is also the master of Yan Shui Ming.
Hearing this, Xu Zuizhen shook his head and said: "It's just losing a battle, it's nothing at all."
"A piece of cake?"
Yan Shui smiled bitterly, "Master, have you ever seen such a powerful middle god? How can this be called nothing?"
Xuzuizhen smiled and said, "I saw the battle just now. You...can lose to that existence without injustice."
Yan Shui's eyes shrank, "Master, is there a problem with Xiao Jian's identity?"
Xu Zui Zhen took a big sip of wine, smacked his mouth comfortably and said: "If you cover your eyes with a leaf, you can't see the sacred mountain. The so-called real person does not show his face, and if he shows his face, he is not a real person..."
Yan Shuimin interrupted: "Master, speak human language!"
"Well……"
Xu Zuizhen scratched his head and said with a smile: "You will know later."
Yan Shui Ming: "..."
But Xu Zuizhen no longer talked about this matter. He changed the topic and said: "The Toad Palace Guishu that was won away... is indeed very regrettable, but it can't be discussed."
Yan Shui frowned and said: "Master, didn't you say that with this treasure, we can find Su Yi? You still insist that I kill the Red Dust Demon Land and offend everyone in the Red Dust Demon Land, but you say it's not important?" "
Xu Zuizhen coughed awkwardly and said: "In short, whether it is Toad Palace Guishu or losing to Qingwu Divine Court, our trip can definitely be called a success and a success!"
Yan Shui Ming almost laughed angrily.
If everything is like this, can it still be called perfection and success?
Xu Zuizhen muttered: "Don't believe it, you will definitely be grateful for all the things I asked you to do in the future! Okay, it's time for me to go to bed, so you can take care of yourself."
After that, his figure disappeared together with the auspicious cloud.
The smoke and water are so dark that your teeth will itch with anger.
As a master, I am good at everything, but I like to pretend to be confused and show off!
However, after this incident, Yan Shuiming became acutely aware that the change in Master's attitude was most likely related to Xiao Jian! !
Who is the other party, and why does the master's attitude change?
The smoke and water are so dim that you can't guess.
…
Lingzhu Peak.
This is the living place arranged for Su Yi.
Su Yi didn't like the excitement. When he returned to Lingzhu Peak, he only kept the Great Elder Wei Zhong and the Ninth Elder Tie Wenjing, while the others were excluded from Lingzhu Peak.
No one felt anything was wrong.
Even some big shots left wisely.
They knew that after this battle, no one would dare to treat Xiao Jian as just the deputy master of Yeyou Palace!
"Xiao Jian, you have made a first-class contribution in helping the sect restore its reputation this time. There is no need to think about it. The sect will definitely promote you and give you a heavy reward!"
Tie Wenjing smiled from ear to ear, feeling happy for Su Yi.
In the entire sect, he was the only one who sincerely wanted to be good to Su Yi.
"Yes, if there is no reward, I will be the first one not to agree!"
Wei Zhong promised with a smile, "As for the ten pieces of purple gold and phoenix jade, you can keep them and there is no need to return them to the sect. After all, it was you who won these treasures back. Let me see who dares to say anything!"
Su Yi had no intention of returning it. Hearing this, he just nodded and said, "I will listen to the great elder."
The three of them chatted for a while, and someone came to deliver a message. The headmaster asked Su Yi to go to the Haotian Temple.
"It seems that the headmaster wants to reward Xiao Jian for his merits."
Tie Wenjing said with a smile.
The Great Elder frowned and said: "If rewards are based on merit, why did Xiao Jian go alone and not call us? This is a bit strange."
Su Yi smiled and said, "It's good to go and see him."
"That's right. In today's battle, you have made great contributions to the sect and won the hearts of everyone in the sect. At this time, the headmaster will definitely not do anything to suppress you."
"Suppression?"
Su Yi shook his head slightly and said nothing.
Wei Zhong stood up and sent Su Yi off with Tie Wenjing.
It wasn't until they were at the foot of Lingzhu Peak that the two of them parted ways with Su Yi.
…
Haotian Temple.
"You performed very well today. Some of the elders in the sect also praised you greatly and wanted to meet you in person."
After Su Yi arrived, the headmaster Liang Lingxu said calmly, "Let's go, I will take you there myself."
Su Yi didn't say anything and followed him away cooperatively.
After leaving the Haotian Temple, Liang Lingxu took Su Yi straight towards the forbidden area in the back mountain.
Along the way, the two said nothing and seemed very silent.
When he was about to arrive at the forbidden area of the back mountain, Liang Lingxu suddenly said: "Aren't you curious, which older person wants to see you?"
Su Yi said calmly: "It will become clear when you see it."
Liang Lingxu nodded and said: "It's really rare to be able to maintain such a calm state of mind after just winning a big victory."
Next, without saying anything else, he walked through a series of strict forbidden formations and led Su Yi into an ancient palace.
There are thirteen seats in the palace.
There were five figures sitting on the seats.
They are all ancient figures in the Immortal Realm who have been in seclusion in the forbidden area of the back mountain all year round.
Su Yi noticed that two of them had appeared in the previous battle outside the mountain gate and watched the battle from a distance.
And these five people can all be regarded as senior figures in the leader Liang Lingxu's camp.
When Su Yi came in with the headmaster, the five old antiques all looked at him like lightning.
The door of this palace was closed silently at this moment.
The lights flickered. An oppressive atmosphere filled the hall.
