The Sect Leader Has Taken in a New Female Disciple-Chapter 838 - 270: I Want to Comprehend the Realm of Filial Piety, Zhou, Let Me Show My Devotion to You
The man was still talking endlessly with flattery, and the big man nodded in satisfaction repeatedly.
Seeing this scene, Zhou Qing first smiled bitterly in resignation, then let out a long sigh of relief.
It seems that Second Uncle not only has gained a foothold but is also thriving.
Equally shocked, Shen Hanyi took out an Imaging Stone, intending to capture this precious moment, but was stopped by Zhou Qing.
Then he said gravely, "Some things are better kept to oneself."
"If this image gets out, regardless of whether others believe it or not, how will you explain it then?"
"Will you say it was forcefully seized through Soul Search, or will you be forced to walk this path again?"
Shen Hanyi suddenly tightened in her heart and instantly became clear-headed.
In fact, she didn’t intend to spread this image around, just planned to keep it for future research.
But undeniably, if others were to find out, not only herself, but the entire Shen Family could be implicated.
"I understand now!" Shen Hanyi decisively put away the Imaging Stone and gave Zhou Qing a grateful look.
The two then fell into silence, quietly watching the scene in the image.
After feasting, the big man lightly flicked his fingers, sending a drop of golden blood with a strange sheen flying towards Second Uncle.
Second Uncle’s eyes flashed with joy, and he hastily caught it with both hands, his face full of gratitude, bowing repeatedly.
The big man then closed his eyes again, his aura restrained, returning to his healing state.
Afterwards, the image remained unchanged until an incense stick worth of time passed, the image gradually blurred, and the eight halos slowly dissipated.
When Shen Hanyi looked at Zhou Qing again, her eyes were filled with awe.
He casually bestowed an Inscription-Level Divine Technique, and this incident exuded an inexplicable eeriness.
This seemingly familiar person, what else is he hiding that she has never seen before?
It was as if they were living in different cultivation countries.
Could he indeed be from that mysterious and unfathomable Sixth-Level Cultivation Country?
"Let’s go!" Having fulfilled his wish, Zhou Qing spoke and then retreated.
Shen Hanyi followed closely behind.
After turning back into light spheres, before they could speak, a warm greeting suddenly came from beside them: "Hello there, did you team up to break into the forbidden area?"
Zhou Qing turned his head and realized the seventh purple sphere had at some point come online.
Looking at the word [Fish] floating above Sikong Yan’s light sphere, Zhou Qing frowned slightly.
Images of Sikong Yan mentioning the slaying of the Fifth Prince and the Imaging Stone related to the deceased Nannan he gave to Elder Gao Xuan flooded Zhou Qing’s mind.
"You go ahead," Zhou Qing turned to Shen Hanyi and said.
Shen Hanyi nodded, glanced coldly at the person who claimed to want to "enjoy" Number Four, and then exited the Divine Ruins space.
She had to seize the opportunity to comprehend the newly acquired Inscription-Level Divine Technique.
In the blink of an eye, only Zhou Qing and Sikong Yan were left in the Divine Ruins space.
"Tsk tsk, truly impressive, wandering around the forbidden area, calling the shots, you’re really an exemplar for us!" Sikong Yan spoke with admiration.
Zhou Qing snorted, staring at him sharply, coldly saying, "There are no outsiders here, tell me, why?"
"Why what? Are you asking about the Xuanyuan Fengtai matter, or sending the Imaging Stone of Nannan?" Sikong Yan feigned ignorance and questioned in return.
Zhou Qing’s eyes narrowed slightly, just about to speak, when he suddenly realized.
This guy, he was trying to trick me!
The scene in the background was indeed the Grotto Heaven Forbidden Area within the Taiqing Sect, although many Peak Masters and Supreme Elders had seen it, there’s no excluding the possibility that outsiders had been invited to explore it before, which is why it manifested in the Divine Ruins space.
But asking about the Nannan Imaging Stone would narrow the suspicion.
After all, not much time had passed since the stone was given, and it occurred when Master Mo Xingjian was acting as Sect Leader.
With the Sect Leader and others in seclusion, it ruled out a large number of people.
But he couldn’t deny it either; with someone as unpredictable as Sikong Yan, any explanation might be seen as a cover-up.
You might think someone wouldn’t think that way, but he just might take the opposite approach because he is an unpredictable madman.
At this moment, Zhou Qing chose silence, and Sikong Yan also didn’t speak again.
The atmosphere became somewhat awkward for a moment.
Then, without further ado, Zhou Qing’s light sphere began to fade, preparing to exit.
Seeing this, Sikong Yan hurriedly called out, "Wait, wait, why are you so reserved with words, walking away at any disagreement, you’re harder to please than those women."
Zhou Qing ignored him and straightforwardly exited.
If he truly wanted to tell me something, he would seek me out as soon as I came online.
Now, the psychological battle between them had actually begun.
However, he was in the dark, and the opponent was in the open.
This Sikong Yan kept providing him with various information, actually just trying to lure him out of the shadows.
...
In the room, Zhou Qing rubbed his forehead, putting away the Token, feeling overwhelmed with troublesome matters recently.
Like that, after a few more days, information about Golden Thunder Sect came from the Cyan Feather Immortal Sect.
Since the year of the Five Sects War, an internal conflict broke out in the Golden Thunder Sect, forming two opposing factions within the sect.
The rebellious Vice Sect Leader and some Divinity Transformation Realm, Late Stage Elders had been in confinement.
But according to the information from the Cyan Feather Immortal Sect, during this period, the Soul Fires of these people mysteriously extinguished.
