Chapter 257 Past entanglements



Chapter 257 Past entanglements

The head of the sect has always been quick and decisive in his actions. When he learned that the sect elder Zhang Mo was framed by thieves and had been bound for nearly ten days, he raised his eyebrows and came to check it out in person.

A group of elders followed behind her. In addition, some elite disciples within the sect could also come to watch the ceremony. This was a good opportunity to broaden one's horizons.

The head of the sect, wearing a bright red robe with flowers, walked around Zhang Mo four times. After observing her from head to toe, he led her out of the courtyard and into a space outside.

She started her first attempt, channeling all her inner strength into her middle finger, and saw a strange light brewing at the very tip of her nail.

"The master's finger-playing technique is really getting more and more powerful." A disciple exclaimed in admiration.

The elders opened their eyes wide, not wanting to miss such a learning opportunity.

Li Changxiao was watching in Chihua Garden, and saw traces of "Zen Flower Finger" on the flower-playing finger.

"Zen Flower Finger" is one of the most powerful techniques of the Jihua Sect and is ranked seventy-seventh among the hundred most powerful techniques in the world.

It was once an existence that Li Changxiao could only dream of but could not reach. The Zen Flower Finger is not known for its great power. The evaluation criteria of the so-called "Hundred Wonders" is not "the greater the power, the stronger", but rather that it has unique and irreplaceable features.

The leader Zhou Qingyu flicked his finger lightly, and the light at his fingertips shot out and hit the black fire rope. The black fire rope was almost broken by the impact.

Zhou Qingyu raised her eyebrows and used her finger-twisting technique again.

Only this time, she added a little spiritual energy into the fingering.

One more shot.

The black fire rope that had troubled Zhang Mo for a long time finally fell to the ground.

The skin on Zhang Mo's arms and legs was exposed. The deep rope marks were shocking. Zhang Mo's body softened and she fell to the ground.

My hands and feet were finally free again.

For a moment, I felt a little uncomfortable.

"Thank you, Master." Zhang Mo thanked him solemnly.

"No need for that. You are the elder of Dayan Hua Sect and are imprisoned. It is my duty to take action. Elder Zhang Mo, I should punish you even more. Why didn't you tell me about your situation earlier so that I could get out of trouble sooner?" Zhou Qingyu said lightly.

Zhang Mo was speechless for a moment.

Liu Yao, who was also an elder, said, "Master, Elder Zhang Mo is worried that he might disturb the Master's meditation, so..."

Zhou Qingyu's tone was filled with a hint of admonition, "If I remain in seclusion for a hundred years, will you wait for me for a hundred years?"

"If that's the case, then wait." Zhang Mo lowered her head and said, "Anyway, the black fire rope can only tie me up, but it can't do anything to me."

Zhou Qingyu felt helpless for a moment. "Forget it. I can't reason with you. How about this? In the land division competition in seven days, you can only win, not lose."

Zhang Mo nodded seriously.

Zhou Qingyu noticed the black fire rope on the ground and frowned slightly, "This thing is extraordinary, I will take it back to study it."

Having said this, she was about to turn and leave.

But suddenly he noticed that there was a man in the Red Flower Garden not far away, looking towards this place.

She frowned and asked, "Who is he? Why is he living in the Elders' Villa?"

Zhang Mo told Zhou Qingyu what had happened.

Zhou Qingyu's eyes flashed with brilliance, but he said nothing more. He turned around and left.

……

late at night.

Li Changxiao had just finished drinking the wine he bought from the market during the day. He was drunk and was about to go to sleep.

Unexpectedly, there was a knock on the door.

open the door.

A tall figure came into view. This person was wearing a red robe and a bronze mask on his face.

Naturally, it is Zhou Qingyu, the current leader of Dayanhua Sect and former elder of Jihua Sect.

Zhou Qingyu was very tall and had a very oppressive aura. She always wore a mask, and very few people had seen her true face.

"Li Changxiao?"

Close at hand.

Zhou Qingyu finally confirmed the identity of the visitor.

Who else but Li Changxiao has this face?

"I hope you are well, Elder Zhou." Li Chang said with a smile.

"You're not dead?" Zhou Qingyu asked with a frown, a faint light brewing in his eyes.

She once recruited assassins in her personal capacity and trained them secretly, and Li Changxiao was one of them.

When recruiting assassins, one naturally has to know something about their life experience, origins... everything. One of the important reasons why Li Changxiao made her remember him was because of his life experience.

"The Prince of Lingtian Dynasty"

I remember that when Zhou Qingyu checked this resume, he almost laughed out loud. The Lingtian Dynasty was an immortal dynasty that ruled an entire continent and enjoyed countless resources.

The prince under his name actually came to serve as his personal assassin? If this got out, wouldn't it be a huge joke and irony?

Although the Jihua Sect is also extremely powerful, Zhou Qingyu recruited the assassins in his personal capacity, and did it in secret.

The cost of maintaining these death squads is also paid by himself, and they are used to carry out the tasks with the highest risk and the highest mortality rate on his behalf.

Memories of the past come to mind.

Zhou Qingyu felt inexplicably irritated.

"How come you appear in Tiancanjiao?" Zhou Qingyu asked.

Li Chang laughed and said, "Didn't I tell you, get lost."

"Humph!" Zhou Qingyu said coldly, "You'd better behave yourself. If I find out that you have bad intentions, I won't forgive you!"

As he spoke, an invisible aura enveloped Li Changxiao's entire body.

Li Changxiao stood under the pressure, yawned, and felt a little sleepy.

......

After Zhou Qingyu left, Li Changxiao looked at him leisurely. Based on Zhou Qingyu's reaction, the remnant horn that day was indeed related to the Polarization Sect.

After learning that the leader of Dayan Hua Sect was Zhou Qingyu, he deliberately revealed his identity. Although this made the plan more complicated, he also could observe Zhou Qingyu's reaction.

As for the relationship between Li Changxiao and Zhou Qingyu, it was indeed not good, but they were not enemies either.

When Zhou Qingyu was recruiting her assassins, she was not actually an elder of the Jihua Sect. She was just a dazzling genius at the time, but she had the financial support of her family, and she alone owned three Xuantie Mountains.

The iron ore produced in Xuantie Mountain can be sold in exchange for various materials such as spirit stones.

Therefore, she has abundant resources, and even has a little more than enough for cultivation.

So he started to recruit a group of death warriors.

There were people with cultivation levels ranging from high to low, but later, in order to run for the position of elder, although Jihua Sect was a famous and upright sect and had many cases of raising assassins, if they brought it to the table, they would be ridiculed by everyone.

It's a stain.

The death warriors who once created many conveniences for her also became a factor that hindered her. Therefore, she selected talents and kept a group of talented and loyal enough death warriors. Through various means, she made them become official disciples of Jihua Sect.

Keep working for yourself.

As for the group that was eliminated, they would naturally die. She gradually issued dangerous and difficult tasks, causing those assassins to die one by one.

And everything was accomplished perfectly as Zhou Qingyu wished. Li Changxiao was just one of the abandoned assassins. Apart from that, there was nothing special about him.

If the two of them have a dispute, that's all.

In fact, it was not that serious. Zhou Qingyu was deeply impressed by Li Changxiao. He only glanced at him from afar during the day and looked for him at night.

The time I spent as a death soldier was actually not that short.

Li Changxiao was at the peak of the foundation-building stage at that time. He had average aptitude and strength, and had no access to resources, so he had no choice but to become a death warrior.

Since ancient times, the death warriors have been the most dangerous and dirty profession, but the treatment is extremely superior, even higher than some Jindan monks. In addition, there are special masters to teach magic and swordsmanship.

Of course, they were not the magic of the Jihua Sect, as those magic would not be easily passed on to outsiders. Instead, they were miscellaneous magic that Zhou Qingyu collected from various places.

At that time, one could receive 500 spirit stones, 15 spirit fruits, and 3 spirit-stimulating pills in one month.

Without these resources, it would be difficult for Li Changxiao to hone his foundation-building realm.

At that time, Zhou Qingyu seemed to be in the Spirit Transformation Realm. Although her cultivation was high, she had many dead warriors ranging from the peak of Foundation Establishment to the peak of Core Formation.

In fact, there are quite a few requirements for raising death warriors. The higher the level of a death warrior, the more resources are needed, and the harder it is to raise him. On the other hand, death warriors with low levels of cultivation are easy to raise and control, and they already have the ability to handle some things.

Assassination, subpoena, surveillance...
