Chapter 657: Ghost Appears

Ji Rong originally thought that the Ghost Shadow Sect would not send any important person to meet him, but he did not expect that the person who came was actually the Ghost Shadow Sect’s second senior brother, Qin Daoyun.

He appeared in Qingyun Palace silently, and Ji Rong didn't even notice it.

To be honest, when he saw that person appear behind him, he was still secretly a little scared.

No one has ever seen the Ghost Shadow Sect's eldest senior brother. All external affairs have always been handled by Qin Daoyun.

Some people rumored that this senior brother died in a massacre by Yin Binghe, while others rumored that Yin Binghe deliberately kept this senior brother by his side and was secretly planning something.

In short, this person has never appeared in front of people, but everyone knows that his kung fu is far superior to Qin Daoyun's today.

Even though he knew that the Ghost Shadow Sect was famous for its ghosts, Ji Rong was still somewhat surprised when Qin Daoyun appeared behind him so silently.

But his face did not reveal the slightest bit of emotion. He turned around, handed the man a cup of tea, sat down leisurely, and waited for the man to speak.

"I never thought that you would betray Xuantian Sect." Qin Daoyun's tone was full of sarcasm.

Ji Rong didn't give him a chance, and there was no warmth in his tone: "If you say that, we don't have to cooperate."

As soon as Ji Rong said this, Qin Daoyun's expression changed immediately.

Ji Rong from Xuantian Sect has always been known for his gentle temperament. I didn't expect that he would be so abrupt to me.

But he still suppressed his joking expression and didn't dare to make any other moves.

The two of them stayed in silence for a while in the side hall of Qingyun Palace.

In the end, Qin Daoyun waved his hand and set up a barrier around the side hall before he spoke out his innermost request.

"Have you figured out how to cooperate with us?"

Ji Rong originally disdained to cooperate with the Ghost Shadow Sect. Hearing him say this, he was just giving him face: "Since you, the Ghost Hidden Sect, are looking for me, then of course I should cooperate with you."

Qin Daoyun knew that Ji Rong was the senior brother of Xuantian Sect after all, and was not so easy to deal with.

"I didn't come here to discuss anything with you this time. I just wanted to confirm your feelings!" Qin Daoyun finally said what he was thinking, "Only when you are sure of your feelings can we get along with each other in the future."

Ji Rong looked up at him and didn't say much. He knew that Qin Daoyun had been testing him.

Seeing that Ji Rong didn't say anything, Qin Daoyun just thought that he was ignored. His expression became even more unhappy and he pushed the letter in his hand over to him.

Ji Rong opened the letter, which was probably written by Yin Binghe. There were some simple words written on it.

The first thing is to hope that he can return to the world of immortal cultivation and cooperate with them to take down Xuantian Gate first.

After reading the letter, Ji Rong couldn't help but frown. They thought that their target would be Wanwan or someone else, but they didn't expect that their first target would be Xuantianmen.

It seems that Wanwan is really more important than they thought.

"I can't leave right now." Ji Rong raised his head and looked at Qin Daoyun in front of him, "Just go back and tell Sect Master Yin."

"Now that Qiong Hua is missing, I have to stay in the palace and keep an eye on Wan Wan."

"If something goes wrong with her..." Ji Rong paused here, raised his head and looked at Qin Daoyun in front of him, as if he wanted to see some clues from his face.

Just as Ji Rong expected, when he mentioned Wanwan, Qin Daoyun's expression changed instantly.

After a long silence, he finally spoke: "Okay, I'll go back and tell my master about this."

Qin Daoyun has always been an impetuous person. After saying this, he immediately stood up and was about to walk out.

Thinking of Ji Rong behind him, he turned around and said, "Just wait here. We'll discuss anything later."

After saying this, he left Qingyun Palace without looking back.

Looking at his disappearing back, Ji Rong couldn't help but frown.

He suddenly felt that his master might have made a wrong decision. If Wanwan could uncover the secrets of the Tianji Sect in that ancient secret realm and take those divine beasts for herself, she would not have faced such a great threat.

Although the master wanted to protect Wanwan, he was still too conservative.

Lu Xingwan did not expect that things would be handled so smoothly at Mingjing Temple.

"I said that this old charlatan should not be tolerated. He should have been tied up and beaten long ago."

"Did you hit him?" Although Song Qingyan did not believe in ghosts and gods, she still had some respect for Master Mingze, who was respected by everyone in the world.

After all, Master Mingze has also brought a lot of benefits to the people of the world.

If Wanwan did anything to him, it would be condemned by the whole world.

But then I thought of Master Mingze who came here today, and his eyes full of immersion, and also showed his conviction in Lu Xingwan.

She thought that maybe Wanwan used some other method!

In short, Wanwan is so well-behaved and sensible that she will definitely not attack Master Mingze easily.

Lu Xingwan glanced at her mother, and seeing that she seemed to have convinced her, she didn't say anything more.

After all, I really did attack Master Mingze. If my mother knew about it, she would probably feel guilty again.

Because the matter had already been settled, the group did not stay in Mingjing Temple for long. On the third day, they packed their bags and rushed to the palace.

When they reached the palace gate, Lu Xingwan turned to look at her mother and said, "Mother, please go back to Qingyun Palace first. I'll go to my father's study."

After saying that, she waved to Shang Zhi beside her, signaling him to follow her pace, and the two of them hurriedly walked towards Yu's study.

Speaking of which, the Chinese New Year is only two or three days away, and even the Emperor of Great Chu has less official duties to do.

The palace maids were also busy dressing up, looking very festive.

At this time, the Emperor of Great Chu was talking to the Crown Prince in his study. When he saw Lu Xingwan coming in, he quickly stood up and held her in his arms.

In order to avoid suspicion, Shang Zhi stood outside Yu's study and did not enter.

"Why are you here, Wanwan? Why are you back from Mingjing Temple so soon?"

Lu Xingwan looked up at his father and finally decided to tell him everything.

This can be considered as helping the Crown Prince!

After all, the fifth prince has evil intentions. If he continues like this, it will probably have an impact on the crown prince in the future.

Speaking of which, Lu Xingwan even felt that the fifth prince was even more terrifying than the third prince.

Although the third prince is bad, he is stupid, and everything he does is superficial.

But the Fifth Prince was different. Although no one knew what purpose the Fifth Prince had in carrying out these actions, he had always done everything in secret throughout the entire process.

This is terrible.

There is a saying in the mortal world that goes, "I'm not afraid of thieves stealing, I'm afraid of thieves thinking about it." This is exactly what it means for people like the Fifth Prince.
