Chapter 268 The Leader Appears, Yao Guang Appears (Subscribe)
"I have the golden Gu too..."

On the black water swamp, clouds piled up in the night sky, and stars shone through the gaps.

On the small boat, Ji Pingping smiled and spread his palms, showing the new and high-spirited golden Gu worm. Not only the old island owner in front, but also Xue Ji behind him were shocked.

"Ah..." She whispered, then subconsciously covered her mouth and dilated her eyes.

After all, as a "saint" for two generations, she recognized at a glance that this was a "Dharma Protector" level golden Gu, and a bright light flashed in her mind.

Suddenly understood:

Why could Ji Ping'an and his team disguise their identities and successfully sneak into the island?

How she resisted and fought back against the pursuit of the Da Ze Faction just now, including the re-sleeping of the Gu worms in her body, was also explained.

"How could you have?!"

The impact on the leader of the Daze Sect, who wore a silver crown, was equally huge, if not more so.

Among his previous guesses, the boldest idea was only limited to the fact that the other party had some way to suppress the Gu insects.

He can control the golden Gu, which is something he cannot do. The word "control" originally means detachment.

Once a Gu insect is planted, it means that it takes root in itself and becomes a "companion" relationship.

It also means being controlled by others."Control" is different, it means an independent individual.

Unless, this Gu is not "planted" by external force, but captured and domesticated.

A golden Gu that was born not long ago and might be captured... In an instant, a thought flashed through the old island owner's mind and he said in a deep voice:
"Great Protector... This is the one that was lost in Sanhuang County!"

Ji Ping'an didn't admit or deny it, he just smiled and said:
"It seems that your Gu worm level is not higher than mine."

The old island master had ups and downs in his thoughts, his face darkened, but he was not too hasty and put away the Gu worms in his body——

Both parties are golden, even though my own is more mature, there is nothing I can do.

He said blankly:

"Did you think that I would rely on a bug to travel around the world? It's just a little effort. It's okay. I can capture the lost bugs back together. I would like to thank you for traveling thousands of miles to send the treasure back. .”

As soon as he finished speaking, the swamp roared under the old man's feet and condensed into a huge whirlpool.

The vortex grew larger and larger, forming a terrifying drag force.

The boat that was still speeding was immediately caught in the whirlpool, and its speed suddenly stopped. It tried its best to move forward, but stopped helplessly at the edge of the whirlpool.

The old island owner sneered slowly:
"If we were on land, I would still be three points weaker, but here in the swamp, you have no power to resist, so why don't you just surrender?"

While speaking, he raised his hand and grabbed it from the air.

The lake water suddenly condensed into a big hand.

"careful!"

Xue Ji staggered and exclaimed. Her cultivation was still weak. In vain, she found that the boat under her feet was being lifted up, shaking violently and making it difficult to stand firm.

He leaned back, and his buttocks piled with snow hit the bottom of the cabin firmly.

She held her delicate body back with both hands, feeling the majestic and terrifying aura of the old man in green robe in front of her, unable to move.

She tried her best to turn her head, looked at Ji Pingan worriedly, and then froze.

The latter was still standing like a javelin, turning his head and looking into the distance, as if waiting for something.

But there was no response in the dark sky. He sighed softly, as if he muttered something, and finally reluctantly grabbed something from his arms.

That's a feather!
A feather as red as blood!
This is clearly a one-time consumable item given to him by Xu Yuanyun after he returned to Yuhang City to visit his relatives a few days ago, namely:

The tail feathers of the fire phoenix.

According to Xu Yuanyun's narration, this feather can erupt in a very short period of time, which is comparable to the sky-gazing level.

The moment the feather was taken out, the old island owner had a strong premonition of crisis in his heart!

This made him stunned for a moment. He didn't understand what kind of magic weapon could make him feel such a strong sense of crisis.

Ji Pingan said regretfully:

"It's a pity that it should be wasted on you."

As he spoke, a flame shot up from his fingertips and quickly climbed up the feathers.

As it burned, wisps of red light gathered towards the sky, vaguely condensing into the shadow of a huge divine bird, with its eyes closed and its wings folded.

Fire Phoenix!

Standing on the waves, the leader of the Daze Sect felt his scalp numb instantly and alarm bells blaring in his mind!
Countless curse words were uttered in my heart!
She is just a worthless "saint", how can she use this level of power? !

Without hesitation, the blue "wellhead" of the old island's main body instantly spread out, spinning crazily, turning into a comet, and retreating towards the island!

However, at this moment, under the red sky, the huge and mysterious, ancient and majestic bird slowly opened its eyes.

"Wow!"

With a sharp phoenix cry, the divine bird spread its wings, and infinite flames spurted out, igniting half of the swamp.

"Do not--"

The master of Qianjiao Island raised his hands in horror. This veteran, a powerful man with considerable experience in the Kyushu cultivation world, was engulfed by blazing flames before he could use his magic power.

……

South of Lanzhou.

The gate of the Beast Control Sect is located in a pavilion built high up in the mountains.

On the spacious terrace, Qi Hongmian was dressed in Xia Pei, wearing a small phoenix crown on her head, and her oval face looked dignified and majestic.

I am listening to Luan Yu’s report behind me:

"Master Xu seems to be in a much better mood after coming back from Yuhang to visit relatives. He eats a lot more food every day and has even made breakthroughs in his cultivation."

Qi Hongmian is holding on to the red fence. From this angle, he can see the bright starry sky above his head and the continuous buildings in the mountain gate below.

The "Queen of the Cultivation World" looked slightly surprised and muttered:

"This is strange. Master Xu and the Pei family are not really related. What else has she done?"

Luan Yu thought for a moment and said:

"I didn't do much, I just met with Ji Ping'an. I also walked around the city."

Qi Hongmian didn't notice anything strange, and he laughed and said:

"That little star officer is lucky to have found Master Xu and returned."

Luan Yu also laughed:
"We have indirectly accepted his favor regarding the incident in Sanhuang County, but we also heard that he caused a lot of trouble in Yunlin Temple, provoking the military generals and the Buddhist sect."

Qi Hongmian said "Oh?" and after listening to the report, he frowned slightly:
"Buddhist monks are not easy to deal with. If Ichihong dies, I'm afraid it will be difficult to be kind."

Immediately his brows spread again and he said:
"However, Qin Tianjian is still hiding in Yuhang, so there is no need to worry about the star official. Let's talk about the Four Sages. How is the investigation going?"

Luan Yu was nervous and embarrassed:
"Still investigating, I have some clues pointing to Blackwater Lake, but it has yet to be verified. The demon cultists are hiding deeper and deeper."

Blackwater Ze... Da Ze Faction?

Qi Hongmian raised his eyebrows, and the next second, he suddenly saw the drowsy "Little Red Bird" squatting on the railing and taking a nap, suddenly trembled, as if he had woken up from pain.

He turned his head and glanced in the direction of Heishui Ze, his eyes filled with resentment.

"Huh?" Qi Hongmian was surprised and puzzled, sensed Huofeng's mood swings, and tried to ask, but the little red bird didn't answer.

……

On the black water.

When the overwhelming flames swept across the lake, the lifted boat instantly crashed back into the water.

Xue Ji was tortured, and her buttocks became more and more painful, but she didn't care at all. She just stared blankly at the flames that lit up the entire lake in front of her, her mind going blank.

With her knowledge, she clearly judged that at this moment, the fire covering the Black Water Lake had a power comparable to that of the Sky Observation Realm.

The veteran strongman who had just shown off his power and captured the two of them was defeated without any suspense.

And all of this happened in an instant, turning from a desperate situation... Is this his confidence?
For me, would you rather give up such a precious magic weapon... Xue Ji stared at Ji Ping'an's profile illuminated by the flames, with mixed emotions in her heart.

My nose felt sore, as if all the grievances I had endured in the past few months were worth it.

However, Ji Ping'an did not look at her, but stared at the dissipated shadow of the fire phoenix in the sky and the slowly dispersing flames, looking for something.

Sure enough, as the fireworks dissipated, the world returned to darkness.

Above the burned and steaming lake surface, the body of the leader of the Daze Sect had been completely burned into charcoal, and fell straight towards the lake like a piece of dead wood.

With a "poof", a column of water splashed out.

However, a soul separated from the corpse and floated in the air, staring at Ji Ping'an weakly and resentfully, making a sharp scream.

"Sure enough." Ji Ping'an was not surprised.

After all, the feather is just a magic weapon. As Xu Yuanyun said, it lasts for a very short time. However, the old island owner is a senior well-sitter, and may only be one step away from observing the sky.

It was not wiped out, just the physical body was destroyed.

For the Dazai monks who inherited from the "Tao Sect" branch, the soul is more important than the physical body.

As long as the soul is left behind, one can also find ways to borrow objects to be reborn, or even become a ghost, or like Jiang Jiang and Huang Ying, turn into a weapon spirit and survive forever.

Even the soul of a monk who has entered the realm of observing the sky can advance to the "Yang God" and travel thousands of miles a day.

At this time, the old island owner roared, but instead of continuing to fight as expected, he folded his body and fled towards the island behind him!
"Want to run away? Do you think it will be safe if you return to the island?"

Ji Ping'an smiled and controlled the boat to turn around and pursue Lao Daozhu.

Chasing, fleeing and reversing!

Xue Ji lay half-lying in the cabin, facing the wind, with hope in her eyes.

Sure enough, after the two sides chased for a while, she clearly saw flames igniting on the dark island in the distance.

Along with the shouting of killing, there was also a faint sound from this distance.

As the old island owner flew by, his illusory soul body trembled when he saw this, shaking violently and almost collapsing. He suddenly turned his head and stared at Ji Ping'an:
"what have you done?!"

Ji Pingan said with a smile:
"You don't think that I went to great lengths to transfer you out of the island without any other arrangements. Now the sword masters from Daomen and Yunhuai Academy should have landed on the island and are hunting down the demon sect members. You can go back and take a look. What does it mean to throw yourself into a trap?"

His voice was very calm, but it was like a thunderbolt in the ears of the old island owner.

This veteran strongman never expected that the situation was still very good a few hours ago.

But in the blink of an eye, not only was his body destroyed, but the sect that had been operating for hundreds of years was also facing annihilation.

"Do not……"

The old man's mind was shaking, and he stopped at the same place for a while, with enemies in front and pursuers behind, he didn't know where to go for a while.

However, just as he was about to turn around and fight to the death with Ji Ping'an again.

Suddenly, above the dark swamp, a distant, difficult and strange cry came.

The three of them instantly turned their heads to look, and then all they saw was a bit of blue appearing in the distance on the dark lake surface. But in a breath, they jumped a few times and came closer.

It was a crow that was all black, with feathers as sharp as metal, and two pupils!
Surprise burst out from the eyes of the old island owner, and he shouted:
"Master, save me!!"

Four Holy Hierarchs!

At this moment, on the boat, Ji Pingan's smile disappeared, and his heart suddenly sank!
And Xue Ji behind him felt as if she had been struck by lightning. The fear of falling into the abyss again appeared on her fair and bloodless face!
why? !

Why do the Four Saints appear here? !
Xue Ji's mind was blank. As a "saint" in name, she was actually a vase that was emptied. She was not qualified to know the information that the leader was preparing to come and preside over the sacrifice this time.

Although the old island owner knew about this, he was not sure about the specific arrival time of the Four Saints.

At this moment, the green-eyed crow flapped its wings, suddenly spread into a black mist, and disappeared.

Then, above the spirit of the old island owner, the clouds suddenly collapsed and a big hand fished it up.

At the same time, a vortex formed in the lake, and then a thick column of water rose up in the center of the vortex.

Taking the body of a green-eyed crow, the Four Holy Cult Leaders traveling across various states slowly closed their wings and landed on the top of the water column.

Two eyes burning with green flames glanced at the old monk who had only his soul left, and could not hide his anger:

"What's going on here?"

The old island owner was overjoyed to be saved from a desperate situation, and immediately told the whole story.

No change could be seen on the expressionless face of the green-eyed crow. It just turned its head, looking down from a high position, staring coldly at the man and woman on the lonely boat below in the rapid eddy.

Its eyes were focused on Ji Ping'an, but it failed to recognize his true identity and said:

"Are you the saintly daughter-in-law chosen by this gathering? A fake heir to the calligraphy family?"

Ji Pingan stared at it with cold eyes.

Trying to see from Crow's face, the "old friend" who had caused a lot of trouble for him and the God Emperor many years ago:
"Are you the leader of the Demon Sect, who was defeated by the Great Zhou Imperial Master?"

The blue-eyed crow's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he laughed strangely, but did not answer. Instead, he moved his gaze to Xue Ji, who was lying softly in the middle of the cabin, with a pale face and disheveled hair.

There is anger in the majesty of the voice:

"Saint, where are you going?"

Xue Ji's body trembled.

The green-eyed crow continued to stare at her and said:

"Let me ask you, are you kidnapped by this person, or are you going to betray the Holy Religion? Think about it carefully. If it is the former, I will naturally rescue you. When the thieves here are eradicated, I will still regard you as a saint. If so. the latter……"

Xue Ji didn't wait for it to finish, she straightened her chest, tried her best to support her body and stood up, standing firmly with Ji Pingan.

Silent is better than sound.

The blue-eyed crow laughed angrily.

It flapped its wings, and the sky around it became darker and darker. Finally, not a single star was left in the sky. Only two green flames were burning, and the violent anger finally erupted like a volcano:
"Okay, okay, if that's the case, let me die!"

Xue Ji raised her head and faced her death calmly.

However, at this moment, Ji Pingan, who had been ignored, sighed softly:
"Isn't it too early to say this? Do you think you are the only ones?"

Immediately, he raised his head and looked at the distant sky again:

"Come out."

On the dark horizon, a gap suddenly opened, and a female figure covered with golden light, wearing a feathered cloak, holding a long sword, and wearing a lotus crown on her head flew in like a cannonball!

Taoist head teacher, Xin Yaoguang!
