Chapter 4481: Leader of the Qingye Gang!
"It turns out he is a master disciple of Hao Yijian Sect!"
The man with the scar stepped forward quickly, cupped his fists and saluted Ling Feng, and laughed loudly: "Brother Ling, your swordsmanship just now is astonishing. It is truly rare in Ye's life."
"Ha ha……"
Ling Feng waved his hand and smiled, and said humbly: "It turns out to be Brother Ye. Brother Ye has been praised. My swordsmanship is mediocre. I just made a sneak attack and caught Brother Ye off guard."
"Hahaha..." Ye Hongwei laughed a few times. He knew very well whether Ling Feng had made a sneak attack, but in front of other disciples, Ling Feng's words could be regarded as saving some face for him.
Ye Hongwei coughed a few times and saluted Ling Feng again with cupped fists, "Let's get to know each other formally. Brother Yu's surname is Ye and his given name is Hongwei. He is the leader of the Qingye Gang. I didn't know that Brother Ling is a high disciple of the Hao Yijian Sect, so I have offended him a lot."
"Hangzhu Ye's words are serious."
"But..." Ye Hongwei changed his subject and said: "This place is located in a remote place, and it is a mine tunnel that has been abandoned for many years. Even our Qingye Gang accidentally dug it out not long ago. Yes, Brother Ling, why are you here, still wearing the clothes of the Judgment Council? "
"It's a long story."
Ling Feng's thoughts were racing and he was constantly thinking about countermeasures.
After all, I am not a real member of the Hao Yijian Sect, but at this moment, I have an arrow on the string and I have to shoot it. I can only frighten this Ye Hongwei first.
Ling Feng smiled slightly and said: "Speaking of which, I am not a direct disciple of the Hao Yijian Sect. I just have some connection with a senior of the Hao Yijian Sect by chance. As for why we are here..."
Ling Feng paused and continued: "To be honest, we actually fled here from the fifth natural disaster city."
In fact, Ling Feng escaped from the third natural disaster city, but these people from the Qingye Gang may not be trustworthy, and Ling Feng also kept an eye on him.
When Long Ze Liyue heard Ling Feng's words, she couldn't help but secretly chuckle in her heart. This kid is really cunning!
"The fifth natural disaster city?"
Ye Hongwei was obviously stunned for a moment, "You mean, this mine tunnel is actually connected to the fifth natural disaster city?"
"That's right, but in order to successfully escape, we have blown up the mine tunnel behind it." Ling Feng shook his head and sighed: "Did this ruin the major event of Hall Master Ye?"
"I can't say."
Ye Hongwei shook his head, "Originally, I discovered this mine tunnel by accident. I wanted to explore the situation below. Since it has been blown up, there is nothing left to explore."
Upon hearing that Ling Feng was not a direct disciple of the Hao Yijian Sect, Ye Hongwei's attitude was obviously a little colder.
However, since the other party has some relationship with a senior of Hao Yijian Sect, he cannot offend him.
Moreover, this kid’s surname is Ling. If it’s not just a relationship, but an illegitimate child or something, then he definitely can’t be offended!
Now that he came to the city of disaster on the second day, he must have gone to the Hao Yijian Sect.
Thinking of this, Ye Hongwei rolled his eyes and said quickly: "Brother Ling, since you are coming from the fifth natural disaster city, you must not have a place to stay for the time being. Why don't you follow me to Qingye Gang to stay for a few days? How about taking a break?”
Ling Feng looked back at the companions around him, and since his injuries had not yet recovered, he hesitated for a moment and nodded, "Okay, thank you Hall Master Ye!"
Looking at his words and expressions, this Ye Hongwei looks more like he wants something from himself.
As for Long Ze Liyue, although she might have already made arrangements, Ling Feng didn't want to be completely led by this woman.
After weighing the situation, Ling Feng still chose to go to the Qingye Gang first.
Everything, wait until you fully recover.
Otherwise, with his current weak state, he would have no choice but to sit back and wait for death when faced with a crisis.
Hearing that Ling Feng was going to the Qingye Gang, Long Ze Liyue frowned slightly, this brat, it's obvious that he should be on guard against himself!
"Why are you so polite?"
Ye Hongwei grinned and waved to his companions behind him, "Let's go, retreat first."
However, even though he said that, he still winked at the few trusted disciples around him and continued deeper into the mine in the direction Ling Feng and the others came from.
Ling Feng shrugged and pretended not to see it.
Along the way, they had blown up some of the main passages behind them. In a short period of time, the Qingye Gang could not verify which underground city Ling Feng and the others came from.
"Hahaha……"
Ye Hongwei had a hearty smile on his face, "Brother Ling, you don't look right. It's time to come to our Qingye Gang to practice some cultivation. Although our Qingye Gang is not a big gang in the Martial Alliance, the sweet spring spirit dew brewed by it is... The lower level area of Disaster City is quite famous on the second day.”
…
About two hours later.
The group of people finally walked out of the mine tunnel. Longze Liyue did not lie. The mine tunnel was not completely opened. It was obvious that the area closest to the ground was dug not long ago.
After walking out of the mine tunnel, they passed through a desolate and barren ditch, and finally arrived at the headquarters of the Qingye Gang.
From a distance, it seemed to be a bare barren mountain, but after getting closer, I discovered that there were actually some vegetation growing on this barren mountain.
You can see from a distance that many wooden houses are built on the mountain in a well-proportioned manner.
This is in sharp contrast to the ditch area of the third natural disaster city, as if it is a completely different world.
After entering the mountain, there is a completely different world.
Ling Feng clearly felt that they must have passed through a barrier!
The Qingye Gang actually has a barrier similar to the Mountain Guard Formation!
This made Ling Feng even more curious about Wu Meng.
It seemed that in the lower-level areas of the Second Disaster City, not only did their surnames resemble mine, but their sect power was also somewhat similar to the sects in the Immortal Realm.
"this……"
Natalie opened her eyes wide and looked at the flowers and plants on the mountain path in disbelief. This was something she had never seen before in the ditch area.
The air is filled with a faint fragrance of grass and trees, which is obviously due to the Qingye Gang's mountain-protecting array, which has a more powerful purification function than the purification mask.
Immediately afterwards, the disciples of the Qingye Gang took off their purification masks.
Obviously, they are very used to this.
Natalie blinked her eyes and slowly took off the mask on her face, instantly revealing an extremely intoxicated look.
Huang Shaotian also pretended to take off the thick purification mask and let out a sigh of relief, "Good guy, you are really alive!"
Natalie even exclaimed: "Oh my god, is there such fresh air in the bottom area?"
"Hahaha!"
Hearing Natalie's words, Ye Hongwei couldn't help but smile and said: "There is a huge purification circle within the mountain gate of our Qingye Gang. Otherwise, there would be no flowers and plants growing in the bottom area where the alchemical haze is raging. ”
"It's amazing!" Natalie looked surprised, while the Qingye Gang disciples looked proud.
"I didn't expect that your gang is actually good at refining magic circles." Ling Feng couldn't help but secretly praise him.
"Ahem..."
Ye Hongwei blushed, shook his head and said: "It would be great if we had this ability. This is the method of Shenji Immortal Sect. There are three sects in the Martial Alliance, namely Hao Yijian Sect, Shenji Immortal Sect, and Yunque Dongtian Among them, the various talisman weapons and magic formations developed by Shenji Xianmen are also important means for most of our ordinary disciples in the Martial League to compete with the spirit child combat preparations of the Scourge Army. After all, not everyone can awaken their personality and become a warrior. Stranger."
"And ordinary people who have been trained in martial arts, as long as they are equipped with high-level talisman soldiers, can kill skeletal warriors with magical or even spiritual levels. However, high-grade talisman soldiers are also very expensive, and they need A large number of square crystals. Of course, in our martial arts parlance, the square crystals are also called source crystals.”
Ling Feng's eyelids twitched slightly. It seemed that even in the so-called Martial Alliance, Fanges Crystal was a very important strategic material!
Talking while walking, soon the group passed through several winding mountain paths and arrived at the core area of the Qingye Gang.
Ye Hongwei led Ling Feng and others to a relatively spacious wooden house, and immediately bowed to Ling Feng, "Brother Ling, please wait here for a while, I will report to the gang leader first."
"Here is Hall Master Laoye."
After watching Ye Hongwei leave, Ling Feng and others entered the wooden house. Outside the wooden house, there were several Qingye Gang disciples guarding them.
Natalie helped Ling Feng sit down on a bamboo chair. Longze Liyue finally couldn't help but lowered her voice and asked: "Ling Feng, why did you come to the Qingye Gang with them?"
"Isn't it good?" Ling Feng shrugged, "The environment here is good, suitable for recuperation."
"snort!"
Long Ze Liyue snorted, "I think you don't trust me at all!"
"It's nothing. Didn't this happen by chance..."
Ling Feng shook his head and smiled, Huang Shaotian also stepped forward and joked: "That's right, we are all grasshoppers on the same rope now, so we can't fight among ourselves."
Long Ze Liyue rolled his eyes and didn't say much.
"By the way, Miss Longze, how much do you know about the Martial Alliance?" Ling Feng changed the subject.
"I know a little, but not too much."
Long Ze Liyue pondered for a moment and said slowly: "I only know that in the lower level area of the second disaster city, to a large extent, the alchemy factory has the final say, but the Martial Alliance has the final say. If it were not for the natural disaster With the intervention of the army, it is possible that this underground city has long been the territory of the Martial Alliance. Even so, about 50% of the Fangges crystals mined in the lower area of the Disaster City belong to the Martial Alliance. "
"The Scourge Army actually gave up half of it?"
Ling Feng couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"Because the upper three sects of the Martial Alliance do have a power that cannot be ignored." Long Ze Liyue said solemnly: "In the third natural disaster city, although there are many gangs and forces, the resistance has never been broken, but The leader of Huanglong is the only one who can truly threaten the Scourge Army. But among the Martial Alliance, it is said that there are more than ten adjudicators, and even a priest!"
"Priest!" Ling Feng's eyelids twitched.
We can probably understand why the Martial Alliance has such a transcendent status.
"The Hall Master Ye mentioned just now that the top three sects are the Shenji Immortal Sect, Hao Yijian Sect and Yunque Dongtian. These three sects have the most disciples and form a very powerful force with their talisman soldiers. .
Most of the members of Hao Yijian Sect are sword cultivators. Although there are relatively few disciples, they are basically elites. The most mysterious thing is undoubtedly Yunque Cave Heaven. The rumored priest is in Yunque Cave Heaven. "
After saying that, Long Ze Liyue lowered his voice and said: "You pretended to be a disciple of the Hao Yijian Sect before, but you did it by mistake. After all, the members of the Hao Yijian Sect lived alone, and those from the Qingye Gang, It’s also difficult to prove. If you pretend to be a disciple of the Shenji Immortal Sect, that would be bad.”
"It's just luck..."
Ling Feng shook his head and smiled. After another chat, Ling Feng also understood Wu Meng a little better.
Not long after, Ye Hongwei and Hall Master Ye finally left and returned.
"Haha, Brother Ling, sorry to bother you. The gang leader invites you to the main hall to meet and chat! I wonder if Brother Ling is convenient?"
"Haha, of course it's convenient."
Ling Feng shook his head and smiled. People are under the eaves, and Ling Feng still knows this etiquette.
Not long after, under the leadership of Ye Hongwei, several people came to a fairly magnificent wooden house on the hillside.
This is the sect hall of the Qingye Gang.
Everyone entered the wooden house and saw that the layout inside the house was simple but elegant. Although the conditions were simple, they couldn't ask for too much in this low-level area.
"Please sit down, everyone."
After Ye Hongwei arranged for several people to sit down, he smiled and said, "The gang leader will be here in a while."
As he spoke, a woman in plain clothes and with a pretty face walked out of the back hall.
Behind the plain-clothed woman, there was a beautiful woman who looked a little older.
The two women looked somewhat similar, and seemed to be mother and daughter.
What surprised Ling Feng even more was that both girls had a white cloth wrapped around their heads, as if they were in mourning.
Orphan?
Widow?
Ling Feng's eyelids twitched slightly. It seemed that something big had happened to the Qingye Gang recently!
Ye Hongwei looked solemn and said softly: "Brother Ling, this is the new leader of our Qingye Gang. As for the one next to the leader, she is the leader's mother, that is, the wife of the previous leader."
Then, Ye Hongwei sighed again: "To be honest, our Qingye Gang has encountered some troubles recently. The previous leader suddenly died not long ago. His death was miserable. It was obviously assassinated by a master..."
"Master Ye, let me tell you."
The middle-aged beautiful woman wrapped in white cloth sighed, and then moved lightly, walked ten steps in front of Ling Feng, and then bowed, "My concubine Yuzhen, meet Mr. Ling and several distinguished guests from afar."
"It turned out to be Yuzhen Madam. "
Ling Feng bowed to her, and then heard Madam Yuzhen continue: "My late husband died in a strange way, but my ability is limited, and I have not been able to find out the cause of my late husband's death. I have no choice but to ask for justice from the Wumeng. If the three upper sects can intervene in the investigation, they will definitely be able to find out the truth. "
After a pause, Madam Yuzhen looked at Ling Feng with her eyes, and said slowly: "I heard that Mr. Ling has a deep connection with Haoyi Sword Sect. If you can speak up for my Qingye Gang and mention it in front of the elders of Haoyi Sword Sect, I will definitely not forget your kindness and virtue after finding out the truth and finding the enemy who killed my late husband!"
Ling Feng's eyes condensed, and he probably had an idea in his mind.
It seems that the former leader of the Qingye Gang did not die in a strange way, but died at the hands of an existence that the Qingye Gang could not afford to provoke.
They couldn't afford to provoke them, so they could only turn to the three upper sects for help.
And since they, as a "disciple of Haoyi Sword Sect", had come to them, they would certainly not give up this glimmer of hope easily.
It was a pity that they had nothing to do with the Haoyi Sword Sect.
However, at this moment, Ling Feng did not dare to tell the truth directly, otherwise, the orphan and the widow would probably turn against each other. (End of this chapter)
