Before the Empress Goes Dark, Adopt Her as a Villain

Chapter 359 Goodbye Ye Liang

Ning Wuxie took Xuan'er and the child to the kitchen. It was already past meal time and the chef had taken a break, so there was no one in the kitchen.

So he secretly opened a portal in a deserted place, sent Xuan'er back to breastfeed, and picked her up again a quarter of an hour later.

Another quarter of an hour later, the waiter came back, bringing with him a short monk wearing a black robe that covered his face.

The Strange Fire Tower has always been dressed like this. Although it is low-key, it will inevitably be regarded as dark, so its reputation in the world is both good and evil. In the end, it simply stopped getting involved.

"Sir, this is the fire cultivator Ye Liang who came down from the Strange Fire Tower."

"Huh?" Ning Wuxie and Xuan'er were stunned.

"Is it a pig demon? I can help you deal with it for free if it is below the Qi Refining stage, but the dead monsters will belong to me. If the pig demon is above the Qi Refining stage, you have to go back to the mayor and ask the mayor to collect money to buy spiritual stones. You can’t afford it alone.”

Ye Liang's voice sounded from under his hood. Ever since he was introduced by the waiter, he only looked up at Ning Wuxie and Xuan'er and then lowered his head.

"Ye Liang?"

"That's right... don't worry about my name, just lead the way." Ye Liang looked cold and slightly impatient.

"Then, please." Ning Wuxie extended her hand to signal, and left the restaurant with Ye Liang.

"Let's meet in Qingluo Town." Ye Liang said and was about to get on the flying magic weapon, but Ning Wuxie quickly stopped him.

"What to do?" Ye Liang said in a displeased tone, "My flying magic weapon can't carry more than one person, and you have a child with you."

"Ye Liang, it's me!"

Ye Liang raised his head slightly and looked at Ning Wuxie from under the hood: "You?...front...!"

Ning Wuxie looked nervous and shook her head extremely seriously, signaling Ye Liang not to say anything.

"Go to Qingluo Town first and wait for me on the way up the mountain."

Ye Liang was shocked and didn't understand why Ning Wuxie was so careful.

In his impression, Ning Wuxie is a powerful person in the Immortal Realm who can roam half of the Lingwu Continent. He is considered a strong man even in the Strange Fire Tower. Moreover, he also has the Heavenly Fire Token that he received for helping the Strange Fire Tower...

At this time, he and his Taoist companion were dressed as ordinary people, rustic, with a charmless face, and had a child with them?

Is this also part of the disguise?

"senior……"

"Come on, I'll explain it to you when we get there. You wait a few hours without anyone noticing."

Ning Wuxie urged.

Seeing that the senior was really anxious, Ye Liang did not dare to disobey, so he could only nod, pick up the magic gourd and fly away.

This was normal. Although people on the street glanced at Ning Wuxie a few more times, they also knew that he was seeking help from Huo Xiu.

If Ye Liang were to accompany Ning Wuxie back, that would attract more attention.

"Come on, wife, let's go home." Ning Wuxie greeted Xuan'er like a farm boy, and went back to the restaurant to get the mule. The parents-in-law rode on it, and wandered back to Qingluo Town.

When they arrived in the town, it was almost dark. Ning Wuxie and Xuan'er simply didn't return the rented snails. Instead, they turned around and walked towards the north of the town, which was the direction up the mountain.

Not far along the road into the mountain, the two of them saw a figure in black robe standing on the roadside of the mountain, looking up at something.

The two rushed over, and it was Ye Liang.

"Senior, what is going on..."

"Shh, let's talk about it when we go up the mountain."

Ye Liang was shocked again. He didn't expect the senior to be so cautious. What on earth was threatening him?

The three of them led the mules into the mountain, and their figures were gradually completely obscured by the woods. Only then did Ning Wuxie feel relieved, stopped and turned to look at Ye Liang. Ye Liang also knew that it was finally time to make it public.

Ning Wuxie didn't know where to start asking for a moment.

"Emperor Yan, senior Yanxiao, are you here now?"

"I don't know..." Ye Liang lowered his eyes.

"You don't know what it means?"

Ye Liang took a deep breath and slowly began to narrate.

It turns out that half a year ago, three powerful men from the Earthly Immortal Realm suddenly returned to the Strange Fire Tower, saying that they were Yan Xiao's friends. Among them, the elders Xiao Qiuxian also knew each other and agreed.

But since then, the three of them have lived in the tower for half a year. Among them, Wu Yuan and You Youshan went out from time to time, but Xiao Qiuxian only locked herself in the sect master's room and never saw her come out.

Even in the Buddhist Strange Fire Tower, voices of doubt gradually arose within the tower. They were worried that Emperor Yan was being hijacked by these people, and elders often clashed with them recently.

But Wuyuan and Youyoushan just refused to leave, saying that there was nothing they could do... Anyway, the situation was very tense now. If they didn't leave, the elders couldn't defeat them. It was said that some elders were already preparing to ask Renzong for help. .

Ning Wuxie was shocked when he heard this: "You can't go to Renzong!"

Ye Liang was startled by Ning Wuxie's sudden cry, but he did not further express doubts and nodded, "Yes, now that you are here, senior, there is no need to deal with the Renzong."

"Huh? Me?" Ning Wuxie was stunned again.

"In the middle of last year, Emperor Yan returned to the Strange Fire Tower. After checking the Sky Fire Tower, he confirmed that you, the senior, were the only one holding the Sky Fire Token at that time!"

"He announced at that time that if something happens to him one day, then the person holding the Sky Fire Order will be the next Emperor Yan!"

Ye Liang looked at Ning Wuxie with bright eyes, "That's you, senior!"

Ning Wuxie was stunned and looked at Xuan'er. She also looked surprised.

Yan Xiao actually passed the master of the Strange Fire Tower to himself?

According to Ye Liang, the time is when Yan Xiao returns to the Strange Fire Tower to retrieve the three-legged Golden Crow corpse.

Was he ready for this then?

"How can I do this... I have never been a disciple of the Fire Tower."

"Since Emperor Yan chose you, there must be a reason for it. Besides, isn't it time to need you now? As long as you go back, the elders can carry out Emperor Yan's will and drive those three people out of the Fire Tower!"

Ning Wuxie held his forehead: "Ye Liang, the three of them are good people..."

"What? Then what are they doing in the Fire Tower, where is Emperor Yan?"

Ning Wuxie was silent. Wu Yuan and others obviously didn't want the news of Yan Xiao's death to leak out, otherwise Ye Qingxuan would know and the Fire Tower would be in chaos.

But now a more critical situation has come. If they keep it a secret from the inside of the Fire Tower, the elders will go to the Human Sect to negotiate!

That would be completely over! Not only did it expose the news that Ning Wuxie and others had come to Dongli Mountain, but it also gave Ye Qingxuan the name of a master!

"Ye Liang, believe me, those three people, Wu Yuan, You Youshan and Xiao Qiuxian are really good people, they are helping Emperor Yan."

Ning Wuxie stretched out his hand and grabbed one of Ye Liang's arms, looking anxious:

"Go back now and tell them that I have arrived at Dongli Mountain. Just say that it is inconvenient for me to enter the tower. If there is any news, please bring it back for me."

"Why didn't the senior enter the tower? We need you!"

As soon as Ye Liang asked, he suddenly realized that Ning Wuxie had already put on the coarse cloth clothes of ordinary people, and must be avoiding some danger.

"I can't tell you for the time being, but you can tell that senior Wu Yuan, he will understand."

"You must tell him in person, don't let anyone know, not even the elders!"

Ye Liang's eyes widened: "Elders... can't do it?"

"No!" Ning Wuxie said firmly, "Listen to me, there can't be any leaks!"

Ye Liang was stunned, and suddenly knelt on the ground: "Disciple obeys my order."

After speaking, he stood up and controlled the magic weapon and flew away.
