Chapter 286 Are We Together?

The secret door opened with a creaky sound. Zhen Dong held the lamp and carefully observed the secret room.

"Is there anyone there?" Lin Sang said.

"I don't know. Just now I felt like there was someone's presence here." Zhen Dong said.

She still looked inside the secret room with some suspicion, and her eyes finally stopped at a certain spot on a shelf. Lin Sang was shouting outside at this time: "Something happened outside."

"What?"

"Someone broke into Changle Gate and went to the bodies of those famous disciples..."

"They came at the right time. Let's put what happened in the secret vault today on their shoulders." Zhen Dong turned around and said, "Let's go."

The secret vault door is closed. Everything returned to silence. Ning Mingmei held the back of the hand of the person behind him, signaling him not to go out.

Sure enough, after a few breaths, the secret vault door was opened again. Xifeng, who looked like a monster, looked around the secret vault for a while, his yellow eyes looked like those of some cold-blooded animal.

The color of the eyes reminded Ning Mingmei of the mysterious man he saw on the way to tracking Song Mingke - the mysterious man's eyes were golden. Xifeng's eyes were dark yellow, like some inappropriate, degraded version of the transformation.

The secret vault was finally completely silent. Ning Mingmei and the people behind him walked out from the wall. He lifted up the other person's gray hat, and the person inside was Chang Feichang.

"I just got here." Chang said very concisely, "There is a secret road from the teleportation array of Changle Gate to the secret library. From the information, this is the retreat route prepared by the masters of Changle Gate for themselves. But unfortunately, the previous master of Changle Gate did not use this road."

"Why is there a teleportation array in Changle Gate?" Ning Mingmei frowned.

Over the years, Ning Mingmei has tried to open up new research blue oceans and achieve industrial upgrades from flying swords to flying cars, from fairy high-speed railways to flying powder teleportation arrays. However, due to the chaotic and thin spiritual environment between heaven and earth, the power and navigation problems of multiple teleportation points have not yet been solved, and long-distance travel in the world of immortal cultivation still has to rely on the teleportation arrays passed down from ancient times.

However, there are some risks in using these teleportation arrays. Since the construction time of the teleportation array is unknown, the location it leads to is also unknown. If the user makes the slightest mistake, they will be teleported to an unknown location.

"The legacy left behind by the ancient times is mysterious." Chang Feichang said, "This teleportation array can lead to a teleportation array outside that I am familiar with. I have already set it up. You go through this secret passage and escape with the things on you. You should have found what you need, right?"

Ning Mingmei nodded. Chang Feichang's eyes dimmed for a moment: "Fortunately, I was able to help a little."

He raised his head and listened to the movement on the ground, then turned around and opened the secret passage again, saying to Ning Mingmei, "Let's go now. If we don't leave now, it will be too late."

"You're not going to go with me, are you?" Ning Mingmei said, "Why?"

Often very twinkling eyes. Ning Mingmei asked, "Is it for Mu Hanshan, or for Le Han, or both?"

“…”

Ning Mingmei said: "Chang Feichang, you still can't make a clean break after all."

Chang Feichang's face changed. Before he could make a move, Ning Mingmei easily dodged his movement and grabbed his wrist. He said calmly: "Chang Feichang, I am not Mu Hanshan."

"Don't think too highly of yourself." Chang Feichang raised his eyes to look at him, his gaze trying to be cold. "Who do you think you are? The affairs of Qiansheng Peak have nothing to do with you..."

“Da, da.”

There were footsteps behind them. Both of them were stunned. Chang was very surprised because he was so focused on fighting with Ning Mingmei that he didn't notice someone coming behind him. Ning Ming was stunned because the man had no intention of covering up his footsteps and seemed to have ulterior motives.

"You look ahead, I'll turn around." Ning Mingmei whispered to Chang Feichang.

The two of them actually had a perfect understanding of each other. Chang paid close attention to the direction of the secret vault, while Ning Mingmei turned to look at the person walking towards them. After seeing the masked young man in front of him, Ning Mingmei said, "It's you."

The visitor said, "Hello, both of you. First of all, I have no ill intentions. Secondly, you don't seem surprised?"

Ning Mingmei said: "I felt from the beginning that you had some plans related to me, and now I am just verifying my hypothesis."

The visitor said, "The word 'plot' doesn't sound good. I see that you two are on edge, but it doesn't have to be this way. If you two trust me, why not let me be the mediator and help you resolve the current situation."

Chang Feichang still looked directly at the direction Ning Mingmei asked him to look at, and asked Ning Mingmei, "Who is he?"

Ning Mingmei said: "Now that things have come to this, I would like to trouble you to introduce yourself in detail."

"I am Zhao Ye from Yuanchuan. I am now widely known as the master of Zhaoye Mountain." The visitor said, "But my other origin is related to both of you."

Chang Feichang asked: "How heavy is that source?"

"I will never forget it." The visitor said, "It will be engraved in my heart."

"What's the origin?" Ning Mingmei asked.

"I know someone who is closely related to both of you. That person saved my life." The visitor said sincerely, "And that person is..."

"Piaomiao Peak, Peak Master Ning!"

Chang Feichang's fingers moved slightly. If it were someone else, they would have lost their composure long ago. Obviously, he began to recall whether he had revealed Ning Mingmei's identity in the conversation just now.

The answer was no, and he felt a little relieved. Ning Mingmei said coldly, "Master Ning Feng and I are old acquaintances, but I have never heard your name from him."

"Master Ning Feng has saved so many people, how could he mention them to you one by one?" The master of Zhaoye Mountain said, "Back then, in Liancheng, Master Ning Feng and Sect Leader Qi..."

Few people know about Liancheng's affairs. He often glanced at Ning Mingmei. He got a message from Ning Mingmei's eyes.

——This person is trustworthy.

Trustworthy?

Ning Mingmei stood in front of the man as Merlin, and did not reveal his true identity to him. Instead, he told him that the man was trustworthy - this really confused him, a former spy. However, since Ning Mingmei said so, Chang Feichang chose to believe it.

However, he still had some concerns in his heart... But the man said: "This is the former head of Qiansheng Peak, Chang Feichang, right?"

“Swish!”

The sword is unsheathed. The man kept smiling: "Please don't be angry, Master Chang Feng. Although I know about your situation, I personally have never had any good feelings towards immortal sects - especially those famous and righteous sects that hold up big banners but secretly engage in despicable activities. My respect and admiration for Immortal Venerable Ning is only out of my personal feelings."

Chang Feichang did not put away his sword. The man continued, "And Master Chang Feng would not want to see the people of Changle Sect suffer, and his most beloved disciple Mu Hanshan also be successfully slandered as the culprit of this incident, right?"

This sentence made Chang very cautious. He was silent for a moment, then readily put away his sword.

"Now things will be much easier. Two Immortal Lords, I need to know what you want to do." said the Master of Zhaoye Mountain.

He always seemed good-tempered and personable. Faced with the doubts of the two, he was able to turn hostility into friendship in a strange way. Chang Feichang said: "I don't believe you don't have other purposes."

"In fact, I have wanted to make friends with Shangguan Yao for a long time. Shangguan Yao lives in seclusion in the demon world, and I also plan to try my luck here. Shuinong messed up Changlemen and wanted to get rid of Hehuan Sect. Shangguan Yao, as a good friend of the leader of Hehuan Sect, naturally could not accept the entrustment." The owner of Zhaoye Mountain said, "In fact, he is not so willing to accept Changlemen or to be an enemy of the fairy world. Unlike Jiang Duo, who needs to fight to cultivate, he pays more attention to the development of the demon race in the demon world. He appreciates the modern technology of the fairy gate and thinks it is the direction of future development. He is also a mobile phone enthusiast. And..."

"Maybe he has wanted to get rid of Shuinong for a long time." Ning Mingmei said.

He quickly reacted: "If we can kill Shuinong, convince Zhendong, and take Shuinong and Wanxia's bodies, the most intense conflict may be avoided."

The master of Zhaoye Mountain said: "The dead cannot speak. When the time comes, we can just push all the blame on Wanxia and Shuinong. Besides, the enslavement of the furnace cauldron by the immortal world should have ended long ago. Taking this opportunity to expose these filth will also help to achieve the goal of breaking down before building up."

Ning Mingmei: "But..."

“They are here!”

There was a noise in the distance, as well as sounds of explosions and wailing. Ning Mingmei knew in a flash that the voice was not directed at them.

But towards their disciples.

"I'm sorry."

"Um?"

The Lord of Zhaoye Mountain grabbed both of them with his hands. In a moment, the bodies of the three people broke through the deep soil layer and came to the ground.

Ning Mingmei: ...

"I happen to be a little bit interested in the art of escaping underground." The master of Zhaoye Mountain smiled at him, "I wonder if Brother Mei's clothes are wet by the soil?"

Ning Mingmei could only give one sentence: "...a hole in the ground."

By now everyone knows that someone has come out of the secret passage.

Master Zhaoyeshan: "Oh, I was so anxious to show my sincerity to Brother Mei that I accidentally neglected it. Don't worry, I'll get my men to fill the hole right away."

Ning Mingmei: "It's hard to judge. I wish you success."

No time for small talk here. Over there, Chang Feichang had already shot towards the noisy place like an arrow. There were already voices of people shouting at the top of their lungs.

"The Sect Master is dead!"

"He was killed by these attackers from the Immortal Sect!"

Ning Mingmei seemed to have a premonition. He looked in one direction. Over there, opposite the cliff, is where the disciples of the Immortal Sect are stationed.

"What? There's a fight going on in there?"

"Fellow disciples! Come on! Save our brothers and sisters!"

"Someone's attacking!" someone shouted in fear, "Someone's attacking from behind!"

A black mass of crows rose up from a place inside Changle Gate, like smoke signals swaying in the wind. At the sound of the horn of rebellion, the Lord of Zhaoye Mountain raised his head and said, "The people of the demon tribe are coming... or perhaps it should be said that they are the people of Shuinong. We are still too late."

Now everyone started fighting. There were people from Changle Gate, Xian Gate, and the demon Shuinong who took the opportunity to launch an uprising and attack. In this chaos, Ning Mingmei suddenly took out the jade pendant from his arms: "Shangguan Yao must be nearby!"

The master of Zhaoye Mountain asked, "Why do you think so?"

"The situation is changing rapidly. If I were him, I would definitely hide somewhere nearby and watch!" Ning Mingmei said.

The master of Zhaoye Mountain frowned, released the black paper crane in his hand, and muttered a few words. Turning around, he said to Ning Mingmei: "I have sent my subordinates to look for Shangguan Yao. I'm afraid there won't be enough time..."

Then he discovered that Merlin was completely enveloped in a shielding mosaic.

Specifically designed to shield him.

Master of Zhaoye Mountain:? ?

The master of Zhaoye Mountain was very confused and depressed because he was rejected in such a way. But soon, he stood outside the mosaic, waiting for Ning Mingmei to complete his action.

In Mosaic, Ning Mingmei, as the highest-authority administrator, has found the person in charge of the Internet business of Qingji Sect-Yinbing Pavilion: "Go find Shangguan Yao's IP address for me, the exact one."

The top person in charge was shocked: "Boss Ning, are you going to have an offline Mortal Kombat with him?"

"Stop talking nonsense and go find them! We steal user information just to be able to fight offline at the critical moment!" Ning Mingmei said with veins popping out of his head, "Given Shangguan Yao's personality, he must be brushing the Fei Si Book while watching this good show offstage..."

"Boss Ning, please don't say that. We are collecting big data for the purpose of personalization... um, personalization of user browsing experience. Ah, Shangguan Yao has used a ladder, several ladders. Let me have someone reverse-trace all the IP addresses he has used, current and historical..."

Ning Mingmei: "Hurry up, or I'll pip you."

At this moment, the top leader, who was sweating anxiously, suddenly said, "Boss Ning, there's a phone call for you..."

"No answer." Ning Mingmei said.

It's so late and you're still answering the phone.

The top person in charge said: "This call is from Yinbing Pavilion Master Ying. Oh my god, why did he suddenly call here? We didn't check his IP address..."

Ning Mingmei was stunned for a moment, then said, "Let him come in."

Soon, Ying Jiu's voice appeared on Ning Mingmei's phone. Ning Mingmei got straight to the point: "Do you know Shangguan Yao's location?"

Ying Jiu didn't seem to expect Ning Mingmei's opening remarks to be so direct. He paused and said, "Actually, I did some divination this morning and thought you might need some location information right now..."

Ning Mingmei: "Don't try to save face. I won't report you. Are you with Shangguan Yao now?"

Ying Jiu: "No, no, we weren't together today..."

The author has something to say:

Ying Jiu: ……………………

Ning Mingmei: Look at my IP check method
