Under the gaze of the ministers, Chu Miaohan slowly took a step forward.
"Your Majesty, this matter happened suddenly. As for the Dao Alliance's position, I have to gather the leaders of the major sects to discuss it before I can make a decision!"
Her voice was pleasant, with an ethereal quality that echoed throughout the hall.
After saying this, she turned around and slowly walked away from the court.
No one stopped them, not even the Great Xia Emperor showed any reaction, because everyone was used to it.
Chu Miaohan is the leader of the Taoist Alliance. He holds the powerful force to fight against cultivators from other countries. He is also the most powerful national teacher in the history of the Great Xia Kingdom!
After Chu Miaohan left, General Lin Zhen slowly came out, knelt respectfully before the Great Xia Emperor, and said angrily:
"Once the Dao Alliance responds, I am willing to lead the troops to conquer the Thirteen Tribes of Beiye!"
The Great Xia Emperor said slowly:
"Let's discuss this later!"
After saying that, the Great Xia Emperor rubbed his brows. State affairs were already very complicated, but now the collective conspiracy of the Thirteen Kitano Tribes had appeared, which was even more worrying!
I don’t know when Wanqing will come back?
I can help him share his worries!
However, what he didn't know was that at this moment, Xia Wanqing, the future empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, did not look as high and mighty as an empress at all.
Instead, she walked side by side with Ning Jie, like a little girl, wearing the black silk stockings made of silkworm ice given to her by Ning Jie.
On the other side of Ning Jie was Chu Xi, who was also wearing white ice silk stockings!
Ever since she almost opened her heart to Xia Wanqing last night and had an in-depth conversation with Chu Xi in the pine forest, the two women are now extremely attached to Ning Jie.
Thus, these three people formed a beautiful landscape.
The disciples passing by them stopped to watch, and looked at Ning Jie with surprise and envy.
"Oh my god! What kind of socks are those on Senior Sister Wanqing and Senior Sister Chuxi's legs? They make my Dao heart unstable. They are too beautiful!"
"Senior Brother Ning is still as charming as ever. He just returned to Miaoyin Sect, and he has these two beautiful senior sisters accompanying him. This is what a man should be like!"
"Seeing Senior Brother Ning enjoying himself so much is more painful than killing me! Why isn't it me sandwiched between two gorgeous senior sisters? Not me!"
"Stop talking, I can't stand this, damn it!"
Countless male disciples felt that their dreams had been shattered.
Why do we want Senior Brother Ning to come back?
Why!
Ning Jie could naturally see the envious and jealous looks from everyone, but he didn't care at all.
If you don't agree, come and chop me?
I just like the way you can’t stand me but can’t get rid of me!
But among the crowd, Ning Jie also saw a very familiar figure - Lin Bei!
But this time, when Lin Bei looked at him, there was no longer the slight fear in his eyes, but it was full of confidence and arrogance.
It was just like the look in his eyes when he first entered Miaoyin Sect!
"Yo huh? Are you getting tougher?"
Ning Jie laughed secretly in his heart.
Although I don’t know what kind of opportunities Lin Bei has gotten during the time he was away, this is good!
The more arrogant he is, the more Ning Jie is interested in playing with him!
Looking at the crowd and Lin Bei's back as he turned and walked away, Ning Jie showed a faint smile on his face, thinking in his heart how to play with Lin Bei next!
After having a quick lunch with his two junior sisters, Ning Jie went to Baiyue Peak to look for his master Qiuyuebai, intending to pass on to his master some alternative information he had obtained during his trip to Xiyun Town.
But he searched the entire Baiyue Peak and finally saw Qiuyuebai in the main hall of Baiyue Peak.
now,
Qiuyuebai was standing in the main hall, holding a black gas in her slender hands.
She placed the black gas in front of her eyes and watched it carefully.
The moment he saw the black gas, Ning Jie suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity!
Feeling Ning Jie coming, Qiu Yuebai said calmly:
"Why are you looking for me instead of taking a good rest?"
Ning Jie automatically skipped this question, walked closer to Qiu Yuebai, looked at the black energy in Qiu Yuebai's hand with a scorching gaze and said:
"What is this?"
Qiu Yuebai turned around and glanced at Ning Jie, then lightly tapped his index finger, and the black gas flew straight into Ning Jie's hand!
"Take a look!"
Qiuyuebai said.
Ning Jie observed the black energy closely and found that it was exactly the same as what he saw on Shi Gan, the leader of Wanlian Sect, when he was in Xiyun Town!
At that time, Shi Gan's whole body was filled with this black air, mixed with a strong evil aura!
"this……"
Ning Jie didn't know how to define this black energy for a moment. Even though he had lived two lifetimes in the Tianyan Continent, he couldn't recognize what it was.
Qiu Yuebai injected a stream of spiritual energy into the black air, and the originally calm black air suddenly rolled over like a roaring black cloud!
Almost in an instant, that wisp of spiritual energy was completely swallowed up!
So domineering!
Seeing this scene, Ning Jie's face showed surprise and confusion.
Qiuyue Baisu opened her hands, retracted the black energy, then looked at Ning Jie with a serious expression and said:
"This is witchcraft!"
Ning Jie frowned.
He had never heard of this word!
Before he could ask, Qiu Yuebai continued to explain:
"This was discovered by the disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall while investigating the recent disappearance of a young girl. Although the witchcraft aura at each missing scene was very faint, your Uncle Si Yin still managed to extract it all, resulting in the black gas you see now!"
Ning Jie nodded and said thoughtfully:
"In that case, the girl's disappearance is closely related to this so-called witchcraft."
"Yes, now things are getting serious!"
"But Master, what exactly is this witch energy?"
Ning Jie is puzzled.
Qiu Yuebai did not answer him immediately, but slowly walked to the window, picked up the wine pot and took a sip of wine, then looked up at the sky and thought:
"Speaking of witchcraft, it's a very old term, almost dating back to ancient times! Back then, the world of cultivation was full of heroes vying for supremacy, and various tribes existed. But despite the constant wars, a delicate balance was maintained!
Until the Wu Clan emerged and broke this world order! Wu Qi is their exclusive property! "
Hearing this, Ning Jie tried hard to recall in his mind.
But after thinking about it, I could only remember a general idea. When the damn author wrote the book, he only gave a general summary of the background of the ancient times, without any detailed description at all!
Therefore, Ning Jie had no idea where to start and could only continue to ask:
"Wu Clan? Are they very powerful?"
Qiu Yuebai said solemnly:
"The Wu Clan rose to power, nearly crushing all races across the Tianyan Continent. They advocated freedom and slaughter, causing devastation to all living beings. It wasn't until the eight supreme clans joined forces that they suppressed the Wu Clan's leader, Wu Jin, and the Wu Clan was exterminated!"
"And now, the witch spirit has reappeared. No one knows whether this will be a new catastrophe!"
