Chapter 932 Phoenix: "I will go with you."
Whom are we working for?
What is it all about?
Zhuang Han's illusory soul trembled with fear, and at this moment he was truly filled with deep regret.
The three world leaders were face to face.
He didn't even have the slightest thought of trying to call for help...
I just hope that after I confess honestly, Zhao Qing will give me a break.
The woman he had previously provoked, judging from her demeanor, might be a White Jade Walker?
Will I even be able to survive...?
Think about this.
He felt a pang of anxiety and confusion, his thoughts were muddled and his words were hesitant.
His expression remained frozen for a long time.
He then lowered his head tremblingly and said, "I will serve the Sixth Patriarch..."
The Sixth Patriarch?
Hear this.
Nangong Yao frowned slightly and inadvertently exchanged a glance with Zhao Qing.
This was to show that the drop of blood from the Void Refinement stage that he had just seen must have been left to him by the Sixth Patriarch...
The ancestor of the sixth ancestral hall of the Nangong clan was a seven-thousand-year-old cultivator who had reached the Void Realm!
Seeing this, Zhao Qing nodded slowly, his expression full of meaning.
How could I not understand? This really hit the nail on the head...
The Nangong clan is now located outside the borders, which is their core focus!
It was done by the Sixth Patriarch himself!
Although Zhuang Han was not a Nascent Soul cultivator, he was born into the Cuiyuan clan and was highly trusted by the Sixth Ancestor. Therefore, he was able to oversee the collection of information from overseas within this clan's secret realm.
"That's it..."
Zhao Qing responded softly, then asked, "To collect the names of ordinary people overseas for the Sixth Patriarch?"
He expressed his doubts, but in his heart he was already certain.
This is what they're looking for, Qingying!
Absolutely right!
However, Zhuang Han may not be aware of the deeper meaning behind it.
Of course, the Nangong family did not have such courage and boldness.
The Nangong clan today must be under the control of some deity, or perhaps their ancestors have already made a choice to attach themselves to a certain lineage in Yujing...
Only under such circumstances would the Nangong clan mobilize its entire strength to lay a net across this vast overseas land...
however.
Zhuang Han listened to Zhao Qing's question.
He shook his head bitterly and whispered truthfully, "What the Sixth Patriarch did was actually to collect overseas maps and plan the various secret realms and ruins..."
"The list I am in charge of is only a tiny part of the whole."
Zhao Qing:?
You don't know anything!
He frowned, but didn't waste any more words with Zhuang Han.
Obvious.
The list is the most important thing; mapping overseas territories and searching for historical sites and secret realms are just secondary tasks.
If we don't even have a nautical chart and haven't found all the ruins, how can we guarantee that we haven't missed any clues?
Nangong Yao's almond-shaped eyes turned icy cold.
She spoke softly, "Where do you usually cultivate?"
When will you arrive at this Book Yuan Fang?
"Do you have any trusted confidants around you?"
!! ?
As soon as these words came out.
Zhuang Han's illusory soul suddenly trembled and shuddered.
They were so scared they didn't dare to answer!
He confessed honestly during the previous questioning, clearly still wanting to live.
But this kind of questioning... is clearly an attempt to destroy me!
He hesitated, and fell into a long silence.
After a long while, he finally spoke, his voice trembling.
But instead of answering, he pleaded bitterly, "Zhao Xingxing, Miss... Zhuang Han is blind. I beg you three to show mercy, for we are all from Yujing..."
As he spoke, the Nascent Soul that had previously been arrogant and coercing Qiu Lin...
At that moment, his knees buckled and he knelt down in front of the three of them!
however.
His illusory soul had just knelt down.
Zhao Qing shook his head...
In an instant.
A mysterious aura of Yin energy swirled around, and on the graceful profile beside her, an incomparably alluring lotus mark began to spread!
It seemed that one glance at the man had already extinguished all her thoughts!
The Bone Woman asked softly, "Is what you said just now true?"
As soon as these words came out.
The kneeling man's expression shifted from terror to confusion, and he mechanically replied like a puppet, "It's true..."
"Ah."
The Bone Woman glanced sideways, met Zhao Qing's gaze, and nodded slightly in acknowledgment.
Zhao Qing also got up.
Without the slightest hesitation, she raised her hand and pointed it at the man's brow!
Check his memory!
From those fragmented and chaotic memories, we will match the questions and answers one by one and fill in the gaps in Zhuang Han's unanswered questions!
His actions were swift and decisive, showing no mercy whatsoever.
Letting Zhuang Han go is, of course, impossible.
He had previously attacked in a fit of rage, leaving only an infant soul behind, and had no intention of letting it go.
Putting aside his threat to his aunt, even if it were unrelated, leaving behind this soul body would still be a disaster!
If you answer incorrectly, you die.
Even if you answer correctly... you still have to die!
now.
With Zhao Qingyi's guidance, Jian's eyes gently closed, sensing the sea of memories.
The illusory soul beneath their feet suddenly became distorted!
Those trembling soul fluctuations all turned into unconscious murmurs and hissing!
It seems to be being constantly devoured by immense terror!
Breathe!
Two breaths...
Three breaths...
In just three breaths!
Zhuang Han's last remaining soul fragments were scattered and destroyed!
Zhao Qing's posture remained unchanged as he pointed, his eyes still closed.
After all, the memory sea of a mere Green Mandarin Duck cultivator is far too chaotic.
He spent a good ten breaths sorting through the information.
He slowly opened his eyes, taking a deep breath as his chest heaved...
"Zhuang Han is not alone, but he has no close Taoist companions by his side; all his confidants are in Zhongzhou."
“That Sixth Patriarch doesn’t appear often; he’s only seen him seven times in the last two years.”
"The Nangong family moved into this secret place and began searching for news from overseas two years ago."
Using the last fragments of his memory, Zhao Qing filled in the gaps in his information.
This includes Zhuang Han's usual behavior and habits, his way of interacting with seniors and juniors, where he usually cultivates, and so on...
Upon hearing this, the Bone Woman...
She raised her eyebrows slightly and murmured, "Two years ago, when we started searching, the Nangong family also happened to have started searching?"
Ok?
Zhao Qing remained silent for a moment.
almost……
However, upon further reflection, he couldn't help but chuckle.
"No no no."
"During that period, Yujing was a time of undercurrents."
Zhao Qing's horizons are much broader now than they used to be.
He deeply understood that the world was a complex situation.
Two years ago, things had just stabilized in Yujing Prefecture.
With the appearance of Jian Zu, the Jian family is making significant moves.
The Master of Purple Pearl Tower kept urging the hanging bell to summon himself.
Later, I heard that at that time, in the Purple Green Mystic Domain of Thunder Emperor State, there was also a Dao Integration cultivator who had survived the tribulation.
At that time, the Phoenix Pavilion Master directly entered the Heavenly Evolution Record and secretly followed his group.
During that period, the behavior of the entire ancient clan changed completely, and there must have been some connection between them.
This is not too surprising.
Now that I think about it carefully...
The phoenix had followed him silently, precisely to prepare for such a possible situation...
of course.
He was also a supervisor.
now.
Both the Bone Woman and Xiao Nangong became serious.
Qinghuan and Xi'er, too, looked on with puzzlement and contemplation.
Zhao Qing sat back down, picked up the forbidden jade slip, and whispered, "Every seven days, he would go to the depths of the clan's forbidden area to organize the scripture hall in the Sixth Ancestor's Shrine."
"It contains all the information collected from overseas over the past two years..."
"At this rate, tonight should be over."
Ok?
Tonight?
Is time so tight?
Upon seeing this, Qinghuan couldn't help but show concern.
Xi'er and Bone Woman also frowned slightly, feeling that things were not quite right.
In this regard.
Zhao Qing just smiled and shook his head. In this situation... he had no choice but to go.
He has now replaced Zhuang Han.
The days that followed were completely different from before.
Wang Jinhong can just let things fall apart as they please, with no one watching over him or caring about him.
My aunt took Qiu Lin's place, but Qiu Lin was just a woman who had just entered the Golden Core stage.
And this Zhuang Han.
But he truly shouldered a heavy responsibility.
If he behaves strangely, the Sixth Patriarch might even come directly to him...
It would be better to follow the proper procedures and go directly to the ancestral hall or the forbidden area as required.
Anyway, I have the jade slip from the forbidden area in my hands... I might as well go and take a look at some of the results that the Nangong family has been working on for the past two years.
Qinghuan naturally obeyed her master's every command. Even though she was heartbroken, she didn't say much. After nodding her head with a slight smile, she began to seriously mix the lacquer again.
Nangong Yao saw this.
Knowing that Zhao Qing might encounter a Void Refinement cultivator tonight, or at least have to head to that area deep within the clans that are full of Nascent Soul and Void Refinement cultivators...
Instead of showing any concern or attempt to stop her, she nodded earnestly and said, "I'll go with you... you can just nurture me with your Yin Sha."
Only Zhao Qing possesses the Nine Cold Body.
Otherwise, Nangong Yao would also be a problem.
only.
Zhao Qing observed everyone's expressions.
But a strange feeling crept into his heart, and he asked with a surprised smile, "What are you looking at?"
"I'll go with Sihe."
"We'll head home later; let's enter the Heavenly Evolution Secret Realm first."
Are you kidding me? !
Could a mere Nascent Soul cultivator like him have stumbled upon the ancestral temple of the Nangong clan's sixth ancestor?
Although... he has cards in his hand.
But he wasn't sure!
Take Sihe out for some fun; it's best to be safe and sound.
only.
Before that, there are more important things to do.
First, help Xi'er repair this palace, so it doesn't collapse right after they leave.
Second, go back to Qingwufang and first detoxify your aunt, then deal with the aftereffects of the poison pill whose location can be determined.
My aunt's taking the pill was only a temporary measure.
They hadn't originally intended to kill Zhuang Han; they were still figuring out how to observe the situation and proceed cautiously.
However, something unexpected happened. Zhao Qing couldn't hold back, and his aunt became genuinely angry...
third.
It is also the most critical point.
Returning to the Heavenly Evolution Record, discuss these matters with Shuyue and Sihe, then take Sihe and Nangong Yao with you to the forbidden area of your clan.
This is mainly meant for the Phoenix.
After all, there's a supervisor at home.
The phoenix can be left unasked.
But they can't stay silent... at least let the Phoenix know what's going on.
……
Things come true in secret.
After my aunt returned to Qingwufang.
Just like usual, he directly activated the restriction and never left the house again.
She still maintained Qiu Lin's demeanor.
She even started thinking that Wang Jinhong should disappear in the future, otherwise her husband would be too busy.
Zhao Qing will likely find it inconvenient to go home often in the future.
If her husband needed to stay and cultivate in Shuyuanfang, she would bring the illustrated books and move them there as well.
I'll be going to Shuyuanfang to hand over the work tomorrow morning...
My aunt thought things through so meticulously.
But who could have predicted this?
Zhuang Han was not some peripheral cultivator. Although he was not part of the core of the Nangong clan, he was directly responsible to the Sixth Ancestor...
Zhao Qing has to go to the ancestral hall to work tonight.
As the Yin energy circulated within this clan's secret realm, a dark night blanketed the sky, and a cold wind began to howl.
Bone Woman, along with Qinghuan and Xi'er, returned home first.
Zhao Qing concealed himself and lagged slightly behind.
When Auntie heard about Zhuang Han's soul-searching situation, she was momentarily stunned and didn't even have time to react!
I originally planned to proceed gradually.
Where is this situation now?
The three ancestral halls of the Nangong clan are now under their control!
The Sixth Patriarch, having attained the stage of Refining Emptiness, personally managed overseas territorial affairs!
After her husband, the Sixth Patriarch took over directly!
Right under the nose of the Void Refiner.
Is the Illusionary Shadow spell really that useful?
My aunt hadn't tried it, and neither had Zhao Qing.
But this doesn't require any thought at all... The Floating Shadow Illusion Technique would be unlikely to work well against the Six Ancestors of the Nangong Clan...
After all, his cultivation foundation is there; with seven thousand years of accumulation, how could he not have explored the intricacies of the Cloud Sea lineage?
Even Zhao Qing's masterful illusionary magic.
It's only good for fooling Golden Core and Nascent Soul cultivators. Occasionally, even fooling a Deity Transformation cultivator to their face is a matter of luck, so you have to keep some safety precautions in mind.
As for trying to fool an ancient clan ancestor who has cultivated for seven thousand years!?
That's impossible...
The aunt was speechless with astonishment.
However, it is not a matter of slow reaction.
It's just that... plans can't keep up with changes, and things are going too far right now.
Last night, she and her husband were still discussing the matter of building the foundation pill.
Today, it's already about refining the void and the ancestral temple.
this--
……
Such a situation.
Zhao Qing was also speechless.
Just to be on the safe side, he gave his aunt a day off.
Tell my aunt not to go to work at Shuyuanfang tomorrow, but to wait at Tianyan Tulu.
Now, whether at home or outside, he is his aunt's boss, which is perfectly reasonable.
It even sent a message to those seven Golden Core cultivators.
He simply said that he had arranged other matters for Qiu Lin.
...close to midnight.
After Zhao Qing cured his aunt of the erysipelas.
Then, the group, all in perfect order, had Shuyue meet them and, with Xiao Nangong in tow, returned to the Heavenly Evolution Record.
The illustrations depict the moon's movement, reflecting the same cold, chilly night.
On the sea cliffs.
Zhao Qing and Xiao Yi relayed the situation outside to their family.
The wife and Si He listened with great interest, their demeanor completely different from that of Bone Woman and Chu Xin.
After all, his beloved wife hadn't left the house at all lately, spending all her time in the secret realm chasing after her cultivation, consolidating her Golden Core and Five Qi in preparation for forming her Nascent Soul.
Moreover, she didn't care whether the car overturned or not, as long as her family was safe.
As for Sihe, he was unusually energetic.
I only heard half of Zhao Qing's story.
They had already made a plan.
The white-haired demon god's appearance changed; his cascading, snow-white hair turned jet black, and he directly transformed into Qiu Lin's appearance through incense offerings...
The intention is quite clear.
My aunt should stay home. She'll use Qiu Lin's pseudonym to go out and see some new things...
He didn't say a word when he met Zhao Qingwang's surprised gaze.
She exudes a cool and aloof aura; in a word!
"Walk."
Zhao Qing: ???
No, let me finish.
He hesitated for a moment: "I don't know the situation in the ancestral hall yet. If we run into that Sixth Patriarch, can you cover it up with me and Nangong?"
Oh?
Si He raised her eyebrows slightly and said casually, "No problem."
talking.
She seemed to have thought of something, and then added, "One Void Refinement cultivator is no problem... but if there are too many Void Refinement cultivators around there, it's hard to say."
Uh--
Zhao Qing fell silent, feeling a sudden toothache.
He wasn't worried about his safety at all.
After all, the Phoenix is there to back you up...
However, whether this trip can be kept secret or not is also crucial.
This is directly the difference between... covert investigation and open raid.
If not handled properly, it's easy to complicate simple things.
The area outside the city will be in complete chaos...
And right now.
A calm yet magnetic voice echoed from afar!
Zhao Qing and Si He exchanged glances, a knowing smile playing on their lips...
After so much subtle probing, Grandma has finally made a move!
The Phoenix Maiden spoke calmly, revealing little emotion.
"I will go with you."
"To the Imperial Boat—"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Qing felt instantly relieved.
With the Phoenix Maiden as a safety net, things are probably looking up!
He and Sihe loved to run wild and not bother with cleaning up their messes...
