Chapter 1164 The secret of the temple(2/2)
"Haha, this matter is indeed a bit strange."
Ling Chongxiao smiled and said: "I secretly sent additional manpower to investigate, and found that these monks who claimed to have the holy energy of mountains and rivers were all instigated by others, and the person behind the scenes is most likely the person who truly possesses the holy energy of mountains and rivers.
!Since I couldn’t find the rightful owner, I took the time to investigate these monks who secretly collected spiritual power, and found that they all came from the same chamber of commerce.”
"oh?"
The eagle-nosed old man was obviously interested and asked: "Which chamber of commerce are they monks from?"
"Nine Palaces Chamber of Commerce!" Ling Chongxiao said calmly.
"Nine Palaces Chamber of Commerce?"
The hunchbacked man on the side frowned slightly and said: "According to my investigation in the past few days, the Jiugong Chamber of Commerce is a dark horse that suddenly emerged. It has a very mysterious background. It is said that there are masters of the Tribulation Realm in their chamber of commerce, and they have very strong financial resources.
, have the capital to compete with Wenxiang Chamber of Commerce, Jialan Chamber of Commerce, Qingyun Chamber of Commerce and Luowang Chamber of Commerce."
"That's right." Ling Chongxiao nodded and said: "This Jiugong Chamber of Commerce is very mysterious, even I can't find out their details, and they have never set foot in Xuanyuan Territory before, they should be doing business elsewhere.
This 'Wentai Treasure Fighting Conference' seems to have appeared out of nowhere."
The conversation between the three people naturally reached Liang Yan's ears word for word.
The reason why he traveled thousands of miles and came to Xuanyuan Region alone was for the holy energy of mountains and rivers. Unexpectedly, after many days of investigation in Guangling City, he finally got clues in this remote Taoist temple.
"Nine Palace Chamber of Commerce. I've heard people talk about it before." Liang Yan secretly thought in his heart: "This 'Confucian God General' is one of the twelve God Generals in the Xuanyuan Army. His status is not low. The information he investigated
It should be reliable, maybe the Jiugong Chamber of Commerce really has something to do with the holy energy of mountains and rivers."
While he was thinking about it, Ling Chongxiao in the Taoist temple suddenly frowned and looked at the big tree in the courtyard.
"Fellow Taoist Tiemu, did this old locust tree in your yard have such a faint aura of death before?"
As soon as he said this, whether it was the eagle-nosed old man in the Taoist temple, the hunchbacked man, or Liang Yan outside the Taoist temple, their faces all changed.
"Oops!"
Liang Yan realized in an instant that he had absorbed the death energy in the coffin not long ago in the unscented secret room, causing the life and death energy in his body to lose balance.
Although he is now highly cultivated and can suppress this death energy, the excess death energy can easily escape.
What enters the courtyard now is just a wisp of his own split soul, which does not control the death energy as well as the main body. Although there is no breath under the cover of the Tianji Pearl, the death energy in the split soul is leaked out unknowingly.
.
Among the three people in the Taoist temple, the hunchbacked man had insufficient cultivation, and the hawk-nosed old man was seriously injured. Only the "Confucian God General" had unfathomable cultivation and keenly noticed the strangeness in the locust tree.
Liang Yan was a little afraid of him, not only because of his cultivation level, but also his status as a divine general.
"Walk!"
This was Liang Yan's first reaction.
At this time, he no longer had to hide. With a thought, the soul in the courtyard flew out, became one with his true self, and then escaped the light and flew away into the distance.
"Hmph, the locust tree is regarded as a 'ghost'. It's not that there is something strange about the locust tree, but that someone is playing tricks here!" The old man with an eagle nose sneered and looked at the hunchbacked man in the corner.
"I'll chase him!"
The hunchbacked man spoke expressionlessly, and was about to chase him out of the Taoist temple, but was stopped by Ling Chongxiao on the side.
"This person is not simple. With all due respect, I may not be his opponent."
The "Confucian God General" of Xuanyuan City had a calm tone and a gentle face. He put away the folding fan in his hand, turned around and cupped his fists at the eagle-nosed old man and said with a smile:
"Fellow Taoist Tiemu, if Ling does one last thing for you today, the previous kindness will be wiped out. From now on, we will not owe each other anything!"
