Is the road long and curved?

I gave him the Phoenix wood, hoping to protect him.

Qiao Gu didn't have time to entangle with him about his relationship issues, so he just said: "Go to him quickly and get back the poinciana tree, that person's target may be the poinciana tree."

"Who is that person, Master?" Joe didn't frown, trying to understand the person he was talking about.

The room was quiet for a long time. After a long time, Qiao Gu finally sighed: "You should know, I have kept you from it for so long. Well, it's good to know."

Qiao hummed, and quickly called Feng Yixiu to ask him to bring poinciana to the hospital. After the call was over, he sat by the bed and waited for Qiao Gu to tell him about the past.From 08:30 p.m. to 10:[-] p.m., a total of [-] minutes, this matter that has been entangled for decades was finally unclear to Joe.

"He's coming back now, he should have the idea of ​​revenge. But we've all been expelled from Nanli now, so..." Joe didn't hesitate.

Although everyone knew that they had nothing to do with Nanli, that person probably didn't care.

"How about this, you send a message to Nan Yunyu. The two of them are Qiao Chan's apprentices, and they will definitely be able to convey the news to him as soon as possible. We may not be able to protect ourselves, and they can only rely on themselves. As for the others, I will I'm afraid that Ye Chen will attack the entire metaphysics world."

Yechen, of course, was that person's name.

Qiao Gu looked out of the window and closed his eyes slightly: "At the beginning, when he wanted to take Phoenix wood, his purpose was to control the entire metaphysical world. The formation set up by Li Xiao can not only replace him, but also improve his strength. A complete dragon talisman, this matter will only become more troublesome."

That's why he asked Yiwei and Huojue to quickly inform their master and father. Now that that person is back, all of them who are unwilling to give in will stand against that person. In order to protect themselves, everyone must work together Completely get rid of that person.

Joe's heart skipped a beat, and for some reason, he suddenly had a bad premonition.

it's okay no problem.He silently comforted himself that even if he had already been expelled from the sect, Nanli would not surrender, not to mention that there were still Yiwei's sect and other sects.If we all work together, we should be able to survive this catastrophe.

The next day came soon, last night Feng Yixiu sent the Phoenix tree over, because of selfishness and the current dangerous environment, Qiao did not ignore Qiao Gu's obstruction, and left the silence to Feng Yixiu.

Without the Phoenix wood, there is still Jing Jing, anyway, he must leave something for Feng Yixiu to save his life, so he can rest assured.

Others came very quickly. In the afternoon, Yiwei's master Lianjing, Huojue's father Huo Yun and Qiao Chan all came.Everyone gathered in Qiao Gu's ward, and after looking at each other for a while, Qiao Gu opened his mouth and explained the whole thing in general.

All the big shots present knew about Ye Chen's abilities, and after knowing that he still had the Dragon Talisman in his hand, everyone's expressions became a little bit more serious.

"I remember that Ye Chen is not powerful himself, but he has a special ability, like being able to summon evil spirits?"

Lian Jing asked a very important question, and Qiao Gu nodded: "This is the sorcery he practiced. Master taught us to save souls and save people, but he always collects all kinds of evil souls. He even made quite a few puppets. That Li Xiao, I think, is his most perfect work."

Li Xiao is not a complete person, nor is he a simple puppet without a soul. After all, he not only has his own thoughts, but also has abilities that are not inferior to Qiao Mei's. .

"Then maybe we should take the initiative." Huo Yun raised his eyes coldly, "Otherwise, when he makes another batch of puppets like Li Xiao, no one will be able to stop him then."

"It's not that simple." Qiao Chan couldn't help but said, "A puppet like Li Xiao can't be made without decades of time and some rare and rare materials. What's more, he just came back now, so he must be weak Very, not that strong."

Qiao Gu sneered twice, his senior brother really has too many leisurely days, and his whole person is loose.That's right, if it's an ordinary soul change, then Ye Chen will definitely be weak for a while.

But Li Xiao spent more than ten years accumulating the luck of countless people and even the souls of countless people, plus the effect of formations, as well as the most important dragon talisman and the extremely rare red dragon fish with four tails.Not to mention being weak, Ye Chen is definitely stronger now than when he was at his peak!

It's just that he just came back, and he is still not familiar with his body and abilities, so he didn't kill them right away to make trouble for them.And he must need time to plan, how to take down their entire metaphysical world with the least sacrifice.

If his senior brother continues to be so simple, Nanli might be the first sect to be taken down by Yechen.

☆, meet

"Now it's better to notify the leaders of the factions as soon as possible. It's best to call them together for a meeting in the next few days to discuss it. Ye Chen is best at hiding his own information. It may be difficult to find him, and even if he is found It’s not appropriate to face it head-on, it’s better to gather the strength of everyone to come up with a feasible method.”

This was the plan that Qiao Gu had thought about for a long time in the past few days before temporarily deciding on it. The other three people had no objections and discussed with him for more than ten minutes before leaving the ward.But Qiao Chan didn't leave, and seemed to have something to say to Qiao Gu when he stayed.

When only the two of them were left in the ward, Qiao Chan said slowly, "Junior Brother, how is your injury?"

"Sect Master Qiao, you better not call me that. I have already been expelled from Nanli. I am my master's apprentice, and my master has only me as his apprentice." Qiao Gu had a cold face, disgusted with the title of this junior.

Qiao Chan was a little embarrassed: "Even if you leave Nanli, you can't sever the relationship between our brothers and sisters. When I drove you out at the time, I was too impulsive. The whole Nanli still recognizes you as my uncle."

"Forget it, I can't afford it." Qiao Gu closed his eyes and leaned against the head of the bed, as if resting his eyes.

Qiao Chan opened his mouth, hesitated for a while, and said: "I remember that the master gave you the poinciana at the beginning. Ye Chen's goal was the poinniana at the beginning. Now that he is back, he probably won't give up on the poinniana. Think about it. You and Joe are alone and weak. If one day he comes to you suddenly, with your current appearance, you probably won’t be able to deal with him. How about..."

"Why don't you give the things to you, and you use the strength of one person or the whole Nanli to protect the Phoenix Tree?" Qiao Gu raised his eyes, and once again had a new understanding of his senior brother, "Master Qiao, How old do you think I am so easy to deceive? Even if I was ten years old, I wouldn’t believe it.”

"Listen well, you accidentally introduced Ye Chen into the sect, which caused the following series of things. The master gave you the position of Nanli's head and Phoenix wood to me, because he needed me to take the danger out of his hands." Let's go, to keep you and Nanli safe. But, you really think that I don't know what you mean when you say this now?"

"What are you talking about?" Qiao Chan's face was slightly hot, and he tilted his head slightly, "I am thinking about the safety of you and Qiao, if you don't believe me, we will go back to Licheng together when you are well. If you bring Qiao Mei and Phoenix Wood with you, you won't be afraid even if Ye Chen comes."

"No, I don't need to bother you." Qiao Gu didn't want to talk to him anymore, "Go out, I want to rest. Needless to say about the ownership of the Phoenix tree, as long as I, Qiao Gu, have a breath, the master told me about the Phoenix tree. Wood will always be in my hands."

If anyone wants to snatch the Phoenix Wood, he should step on his dead body to get it!

Qiao Chan wanted to say a few more words to persuade him, but Qiao Gu had already closed his eyes and pulled the quilt, and he didn't want to say more at all. He was not a person who didn't know what to do. Seeing Qiao Gu's resistance, he frowned and went out.

As soon as he left, Qiao Gu reached under the pillow, and quickly took out the very ordinary-looking bracelet.

Master, don't worry, even if I destroy the Phoenix Tree with my own hands, I won't let it fall into Ye Chen's hands.

……

Three days later, Qiao Gu was still lying in the hospital, and the not-so-small room was full of people in the exclusive meeting room of the Unscience Association in City A.If an ordinary little Taoist came to see it, he would definitely be frightened by this scene. People who have the right to speak in the entire metaphysics world have come.

Qiao Chan, the head of the Nanli Sect, Lian Jing, the head of the Ziwei Sect, Huo Jue and his son, the administrator of Heluo, and the heads of various other sects were all sitting at the round table.But they all had serious expressions and frowned, as if they had encountered something difficult to solve.

The truth is about the same.

"The reason for bringing everyone together today is because of a rather difficult matter, which may affect the safety of the entire metaphysics world, so I hope everyone can actively discuss it, and we will work together to formulate a feasible plan." For the meeting, Qiao Chan was the organizer and spokesperson, after all, his identity was there.

Regarding Ye Chen, most of you here actually know something about it. The Nanli incident caused a sensation in the entire metaphysics circle.

Qiao Chan only roughly said that Ye Chen came back and seemed to set his goal to take them down and rule the metaphysics world, which made many people panic.

"This Yechen is really ruthless. Back then, Qiao Zhenren spent his whole life in cultivation to get rid of him. Didn't he think he could come back again?"

"Hey, that kind of crooked person must be recruited a lot later, but I don't know how strong he is now, and the whole metaphysics world may never find someone as powerful as Qiao Zhenren again, what should I do?"

"Why are you afraid of him? No matter how powerful he is, isn't he just one person? How many people are there in our metaphysics world? One mouthful of spit from one person is enough to drown him, so don't be afraid!"

"Come on, have you forgotten how powerful Ye Chen is? How old was he back then, probably in his twenties, and he could stand up to Qiao Zhenren head-on with his own abilities. If you confront him, dare to vomit at him! saliva?"

"Indeed, Ye Chen's talent is rare among tens of millions of people. It is on par with Qiao Gu. In addition, Qiao Zhenren didn't guard against him at the beginning, and even taught him a lot of skills. Many years ago He's a big guy too."

……

There were discussions everywhere, but they were basically talking nonsense. Qiao Chan and Huo Yun, who were sitting in the main seat, were a little impatient after listening to it for a while.

"Everyone, be quiet. What we want to hate now is the plan to deal with Ye Chen, not to recall his glorious deeds. Let's get back to the topic." Lian Jing's usually frivolous face unconsciously took on a bit of seriousness. Shut up unconsciously, looked at each other for a while before starting to discuss.

At this time, Qiao had no home, and only Qiao was left at home. During this time, Qiao Yuan was sent to Feng Min's house to help him take care of him for a period of time. Sui Yi was busy with the affairs of the clinic these days, and Qiao didn't want to send him away. This ordinary person is involved, please try to live with his master as much as possible, and don't come back for the time being.

Because Joe is still in the hospital, every day Joe spends most of his time going to the hospital to take care of him.In fact, Qiao Gu's injury is not that serious anymore. Modern medicine can't cure his injury, but people in the metaphysics world can, and it's not like Qiao Gu has no panacea in his hands for so many years. Now it's just time to heal his injury.

However, it is estimated that the strength is only 20 to [-]% of the original strength, and it is basically impossible to restore the peak level in this life.He didn't seem to care much about it himself, but Joe hadn't been his apprentice for more than [-] years, how could he not be clear about his thoughts?But now she can only sigh inwardly and try to take care of him.

The house was quiet, and the soup was being boiled in the kitchen. Qiao did not follow the soup cooking method Sui Yi left him. During Qiao Gu's hospitalization, his soup cooking skills improved a lot.

The soup was steaming and steaming, and the living room was peaceful, as if there was nothing unusual. Joe was not lying on the sofa with his eyes closed, but suddenly opened his eyes when the curtains were blowing slightly.

The next second, he jumped up, and in the blink of an eye, he reached the door of the kitchen, and the sofa that was just under him suddenly burst into a cloud of black gas, and then burned violently.

Someone sneaked up on him!

Qiao didn't squint his eyes slightly, and with a light wave of his hand, a piece of talisman paper fell on the sofa, and the burning sofa instantly recovered, with no trace of burning at all.

"Yo, the reaction is quite fast~" A pleasant female voice suddenly appeared, and the figure of the visitor was revealed, with a delicate and pretty face, and a thin white feather gauze wrapped around his arms, and he was full of charm in the blink of an eye.

Qiao didn't quite understand why she was here, so she asked without hesitation.

"Why did you come to look for you?" Pale Ling tapped her red lips with her fingertips, and smiled playfully, "Of course I came to kill you, or you can take poinciana wood."

His life and Poinciana?Joe didn't frown slightly, his mind turned back and forth in an instant.Pale Ling also came to grab the Phoenix wood that time, but she left in despair after being beaten by Qiao Gu, and now she dared to come here openly, could it be...

As if seeing his doubts, Pai Ling covered her lips and smiled softly: "Don't pretend to be Joe, I know that the poinciana is still with you. Back then I was weaker than Qiao Gu, but now I am not the same as before. It’s me. If I can’t get something today, let alone me, even that adult will not agree~”

"Which sir?" Joe didn't look at her coldly.

Pai Ling didn't intend to hide him, and said simply: "It's Master Ye Chen, you probably don't know yet. Our Cangshan faction has already taken refuge under Lord Ye Chen, and now we are working for him. He wants the Phoenix wood, we Of course I will take it back for him."

Her few words contained huge information, and Qiao's heart sank, so the Cangshan faction decided to stand on the opposite side of them?In the past, everyone just didn't agree with each other, and the harmony on the surface was still there, but now that Ye Chen came back, they stood in line without the slightest hesitation, and they weren't afraid of accidents?

However, this time can be troublesome.Originally, the Cangshan School was also one of the big schools in the metaphysics world, and there were quite a few disciples. Although Cang Bailing, the direct disciple of the head sect, was not as good as Qiao Mei and Nan's siblings, he was not incompetent either.Even if this kind of martial art is not on their side, it's fine, but once it becomes the opposite, it will be even more difficult.

Worrying in his heart, but not showing it on his face, Qiao smiled instead: "So you came to me to get the poinciana tree alone? Pale Ling, you are so confident in yourself, I really underestimated you."

After using Yunlu to change Feng Yi's fate, it seems that Qiao has not been injured for a long time, and his skills have declined.But the medicine that Qiao Gu gave him was a very precious panacea, and he benefited a lot from being nourished by his pure spirit, and that time when the cloud was condensed, Qiao had a deeper understanding of the talisman , the realm of skill has already risen a lot.

If the current Joe is not compared with the previous Joe, Paile Ling will definitely suffer.

But Pai Ling didn't seem to care: "You just have to give it a try if you are confident, but there are too many people here, I don't want to make things big. Does Joe dare to go out with me without you? If not, I will Let's go and have fun with those ordinary friends of yours, by the way, I remember that one of them seems to be your...boyfriend? Tsk tsk."

Feng Yixiu has Jing Jing to take care of her, Jing Jing is not afraid of Pai Ling, but Sui Yi and Qiao Yu'an are not. If Pai Ling attacks them, he will never take both sides into consideration.

"Okay, let me see if you've made any progress." Qiao didn't smile coldly, turned around and went into the kitchen to turn off the fire, and when the pale figure disappeared, he also left the house.

As if she really didn't want to make a big deal out of it, Pai Ling flew from Qiao Mei's small apartment to an unknown mountain outside the suburb.The location of this mountain is too remote and barren, and no one would come here on weekdays. Paile Ling had set up a barrier in advance, so even if she and Qiao didn't fight, there was no need to worry.

The two arrived at the top of the mountain one after the other. The top of the mountain was a flat land with only a small piece of grass and a tree with a crooked neck. The rest were big rocks and loess, which looked strange and desolate for no reason.

Pale Ling's weapon was the two white silks, but Qiao noticed something was wrong before he fought her.Pai Ling's skill has actually improved a lot. Before, Qiao couldn't beat her, but now the two of them fought for more than 100 rounds, and they were all tied.

Knowing that there must be something weird about her, Qiao didn't take it lightly or be impatient. When she accidentally showed her flaws, Chi Yan pierced her white silk with a fierce phoenix flame.

Feng Yan's strength was beyond Qiao's expectations. It was normal for Bai Ling to be inferior, but in the next second, a strange thing happened. Bai Ling, who was pierced through a hole, healed slowly like a wound. It only took more than ten seconds from the hole to the restoration.

"So, it's Ye Chen's credit? No wonder you dare to come here alone." Qiao stopped and stood still, not planning to attack again. Even if he destroyed her white silk, it might return to its original appearance in a few minutes.

It seemed that he had to think of a perfect way to avoid wasting his efforts.

"That's right." Pale Ling nodded with a smile, and smiled softly, "How about it? Do you want to join us, anyway, all of this will be Master Ye Chen's in the end, you might as well give up your resistance and join us."

What she said sounded nice, but how could Joe not know that once they all surrendered, it would become Ye Chen's arbitrary existence.At that time, didn't he let them live before they could live, and if he let them die, they would die immediately?

However, he is not going to talk to Pai Bailing about these things, anyway, if we disagree with each other, we will not know who wins and who loses until after the fight.

Just about to fight again, Bai Bailing smiled: "I didn't come to fight with you this time. Master Yechen ordered me to bring you here only to see you. Now that you are here, my mission has been completed and I have to do it." More important things."

"No, Joe, work hard, I look forward to being on the same front with you~"

After leaving such a sentence, Paile Ling turned around and left here. Qiao didn't chase after him, because at the moment Paile Ling left, a figure slowly gathered not far in front of him.

That is……

☆, situation

"Are you... Joe?" The man took a few glances at Joe, then smiled slightly, "I haven't seen him for more than 20 years, and it really surprised me, as expected of an apprentice taught by Ah Gu."

Joe took a step back silently, and looked at him slowly after confirming that he was just talking and didn't mean to shoot himself.

Ye Chen looked very young, only in his 30s, about the same age as his master.This person didn't look as vicious as he imagined, nor did he look like a treacherous person.What's more, he can be described as a peerless person.

Mo eyebrows are slender and broad, Danfeng eyes are long and narrow but with a little gentle light, the bridge of his nose is high and thin, his lips are lightly pursed, and the curvature of his lips makes him always look like a smile, but the strangest thing is the one under his right eye. A tear mole, this mole added a little bit of confusion to him.

"Speaking of which, you should still call me Uncle Master." The curve of Ye Chen's lips deepened, and his smile became more obvious, "Come on, call me and I'll give you a present if you call me."

Qiao Mei: ... Is this man sick?Aren't we now in a relationship of opposites?

"You don't seem to be willing." Ye Chen seemed a little distressed, and he unconsciously tapped the tear mole under his eyes with his index finger, "It seems that we have been separated for too long and have no memory, do you remember? I hugged you when I was a child? At that time, Ah Gu was still a teenager at heart, and he hadn’t grown into an adult, so one day he suddenly brought you back and said he wanted to raise you."

"You were very young at that time, and you didn't understand anything. You only knew how to eat and sleep." Ye Chenyue said that the smile on his face became more obvious, as if that time had left a deep impression on him, "But he Where can I take care of the child, I haven't settled down yet, but fortunately, I help you to hug you and put you to sleep, which makes him a little more relaxed."

The more he said that Joe was not there, the more inexplicably creepy he felt. Since everyone said that he was still very young, how could he have any impression?Moreover, he purposely asked Pai Ling to bring him here today, just to catch up with him?Is it about something he couldn't remember more than 20 years ago?

Is there really nothing wrong with this person?

One person balabala said a lot, but unfortunately the other protagonist of the incident did not buy it.It took Yechen a while to stop, slightly regretful: "You don't seem to like me very much?"

How could I like you?Joe's entire face was completely paralyzed, and he couldn't stop complaining from the bottom of his heart.

"Ah~ It really is Ah Gu's apprentice, he was carved out of the same mold as him, it's too serious." Ye Chen shook his head, and said instead, "Okay, let's talk about something else, just chat How about Ah Gu? Your master, you should know, right?"

Qiao didn't twitch the corners of his mouth: "So, you called me today to talk to me about my master?"

"Otherwise?" Ye Chen looked at him strangely, "You don't think I want to kill you or want to know the news about Phoenix Tree from you, do you?"

Joe: Sorry, I really thought so.

Ye Chen shook his head: "You are Ah Gu's apprentice, how could I hurt you. As for the Phoenix tree, it will be mine in the end, it doesn't matter if I know its whereabouts now or after a while."

He did have confidence in himself, but Joe didn't feel that the current situation was too weird, but he wanted to know more about Ye Chen, trying to get some useful information, so the two of them actually stood in this bare Chatting on the mountain.

The topic at the beginning naturally revolved around Qiao Gu. Ye Chen hadn't seen Qiao Gu for more than 20 years, so of course he wanted to know more about him.Joe didn't know how to tell everything, and got away with half-truths and half-truths.

But it is impossible to talk about a topic forever, so under Joe's intentional guidance, the topic gradually turned to Ye Chen's current strength.

This topic is quite sensitive, and when Qiao didn't pretend to ask it unintentionally, he was actually quite guilty, but Ye Chen didn't care, and instead said bluntly: "It should be a little stronger than when it was at its peak, I'll show you."

He didn't seem to mind at all. After saying this, he looked around and quickly locked his target on a big rock about a hundred meters away from the two of them.The big rock was the biggest thing on the mountain other than the crooked-neck tree. Joe didn't look away and stared at the rock carefully.

Without keeping him waiting, Yechen stretched out his right hand lightly, only a little lightly, the boulder didn't make any sound, but after a gust of wind, it turned into pieces...

Without any sound, it just turned into dregs...

"This is part of my strength." Ye Chen withdrew his hand, looked at Qiao calmly, as if I could break you into such scum if I tried my best.

The hairs all over Joe's body stood on end, and he clenched his fists unconsciously.

This person's strength is much, much stronger than he imagined, so his previous idea of ​​trying to defeat him was really too naive.

"Why do you want Poinciana?" Joe decided to figure out this question without deliberation. Since he now has Dragon Talismans, and Dragon Talismans are no worse than Poinciana, why is he still obsessed with Poinciana?

"Well, I don't know if this can be regarded as a kind of...obsession?" Ye Chen tilted his head and sighed softly, "Although the poinciana is not very useful to me anymore, I just want to take it away. Get it, and then rule you, this process may sound silly, but it’s quite interesting when you think about it.”

However, Qiao didn't find this interesting. Moreover, he always felt that Ye Chen was a bit strange. Even if he didn't know what kind of character he was before, the person who died for more than 20 years and returned again would not be so calm, even a little gentle. .

It's really unreasonable!

"Leaving aside the Phoenix tree, what's the matter with your so-called ruling us? I don't think we are on the absolute opposite side, maybe we can actually coexist peacefully, and the well will not interfere with the river?"

If they can't fight hard, it is necessary for Qiao Gu and others to seek temporary peace.Qiao didn't want to use force as soon as he came up, and he had to admit that Ye Chen's ability was really unfathomable.

"Tsk, you are really as naive as Ah Gu." Ye Chen finally showed some sarcasm at this time, "Peace can be obtained with empty words? The peace in the metaphysics world for so many years was not brought back by countless fights in the early years. Besides, even if I want peace, those people are willing to give it to me? Your good uncle Qiao Chan is the first one who is not willing."

"He is selfish and stupid. He naively thought that I was a good person and introduced me to the master. Others said that I coveted poinciana, but he himself did too? It's just that he is good at acting and pretends to be simple and honest to deceive you all. Oh, by the way, I seem to have heard that he expelled you and A Gu from the sect, right? Heh, Nanli will be ruined by him sooner or later, I think I should act sooner to get back what belongs to me and A Gu alright."

Qiao Mei: ...Forget it, forget it, I can't complain.

"Okay, let's not talk about this, it's boring." Ye Chen looked at the sky, "It's getting late, you go back and discuss with those people. Either give me the Phoenix wood, and then surrender unconditionally. Or, use Speaking of strength, although it is a bit troublesome, I don't mind."

After leaving such a sentence, Ye Chen waved his hand, his figure gradually blurred, and soon disappeared completely.Joe didn't look at the place where he was standing before, his eyes were dim, and he left here as well.

There is a gentle breeze, and the blue sky and white clouds remain unchanged, but what hides in this good time is the ubiquitous murderous intent and danger.

In the evening, Qiao didn't go to the hospital to see Qiao Gu with the thermos, and by the way, told him the whole process of meeting Yechen in detail.At the end, he said: "Master, is he... so weird?"

Qiao Gu sipped the soup plainly: "It's about the same. You don't need to save face for him. You can just describe him as crazy."

Joe: Well, it looks like I made a fuss.

"Then what are we going to do next? Has the head discussed any good countermeasures?"

"I don't know, but I don't have much hope." Qiao Gu put down the bowl, lowered his eyes slightly, not knowing what he was thinking, "Let's take a step and see."

Joe didn't nod, that's all for now.

However, Ye Chen didn't seem to be willing to give them any more time to think about it. After the second negotiation with them failed, he finally made a move.Although he didn't do it himself, the trouble is still not small.

"Currently eighteen cities including city A have been attacked by various demons and ghosts, and in these cities, at least half of our people have been injured to varying degrees, and some of our secret strongholds have been attacked. occupied by them."

In the conference room, Jin Ze, who was supposed to stay behind in City C, appeared here to report the situation to the people sitting below: "City A, City C and several nearby cities have more serious injuries. Moreover, there are many Ordinary people with whom we have less close ties have also been affected."

In fact, Li Xiao is the most powerful. Over the past ten years, he has been looking for a way to revive Ye Chen, while secretly building his own forces. There are quite a few powerful monsters like Gao Bingbing, and even more Let alone ordinary demons and goblins.

Although he died, those forces were all left to Ye Chen, which became his great help.

"There is another very unfortunate news..." Having said this, Jin Ze couldn't help pursing his lips, "The Cangshan faction officially announced that it belonged to Ye Chen's banner and stood on the opposite side of us. And this time our secret stronghold was occupied, so we Part of their reason."

As soon as these words came out, many people were stunned for a moment, and soon there were discussions everywhere.

"Cang Ming is an old man, usually he doesn't do anything when we have something to do, but at this time, it's much faster to hit us instead."

"What should we do? Originally, we still had a chance of winning, but now that the Cangshan faction has defected, and with the addition of those troublesome monsters, have we still won?"

"Who will know if you don't try? I don't think we should discuss these useless things at this time. Fighting is the kingly way! If he comes one, I will fight one, and if he comes two, I will make a pair. I still don't believe that I can't beat him?"

"Actually, fighting and killing will definitely not benefit both sides in the end. Since the Cangshan faction has compromised, I don't think we will..."

I don't know who said the last sentence, but when the words came out, many people frowned. Some people were disgusted with such remarks, and some were ready to move.

That's right, the powerful Cangshan faction all stood on Ye Chen's side. Although there seemed to be a lot of people on their side, the opponent was not bad at all.Besides, Ye Chen, who is comparable to Qiao Zhenren, has returned, and his ability has improved to a higher level. Who among them can beat Ye Chen?

The only possible one, Qiao Gu, was hospitalized because he used Yunlu against Li Xiao, and he was basically useless for the rest of his life, so who among the rest of them could fight Ye Chen?

It is very unlikely that you can beat it, so what should you do if you can't beat it?

Seeing that the atmosphere in the conference room was getting weirder, Qiao Chan quickly stood up: "Don't worry, everyone, even if the Cangshan faction rebels, Nanli will always stand on the side of justice! Nanli has a formation to protect him, so don't worry about it. I will send most of my disciples to help everyone, if they come again, it will be a lose-lose situation for both sides, and I will absolutely not allow the dignity of our metaphysical world to be trampled on like this!"

I have to say that Qiao Chan is worthy of being a high-ranking person, and Qiao Chan has always had prestige. After saying such words, many people in the room felt a little relieved.That's right, the Cangshan faction is rebellious, Nanli is still here, and there are Lianjing, Huoyun and others. Together, they should not be able to defeat Yechen.

Seeing that everyone gradually quieted down, Qiao Chan said again: "Furthermore, although Ye Chen is powerful, we are not powerless to fight back. He has a dragon talisman, but we have a phoenix wood that is comparable to the dragon talisman. As long as we make good use of it Phoenix wood, he is not afraid at all."

As soon as I heard that there was a poinciana, the place became lively again.

"That's right, Phoenix wood is a treasure that has been rare for thousands of years. With the help of Phoenix wood, Ye Chen would not be so scary."

"But who owns the Phoenix tree now? Ye Chen seems to be determined to win the Phoenix tree, so he must protect it!"

"I remember that the Poinciana is in the hands of Qiao Gu, but now that Qiao Gu is injured like that, I think it's better to let him hand over things to the head of Qiao. And if there is a poinciana in his hand, maybe the head of Qiao will Can defeat Ye Chen!"

"Yes, the head of Qiao's strength is not impressive. Even Qiao Gu may not be able to match it. If there is a Phoenix tree, it will definitely be like a tiger with wings."

"Then let's help Master Qiao get the Phoenix Wood first, shall we? Qiao Gu should agree."

"He is so weak now? How dare you disagree?"

……

Inexplicably, the topic changed from fighting against Ye Chen to letting Qiao Chan hold the phoenix tree. Lian Jing and Huo Yun looked at each other with deep expressions on their faces.

The author has something to say: As of today, the freshness of my home has all disappeared, leaving only the vicissitudes of life, the world is too real 23333

☆、Secret of Poinciana

This Qiao Chan really knows how to pick the right time to seek benefits for himself. Others don't know how his strength is, but how many of them still don't understand?If you really want to talk about high and low, it is from Qiaogu to Huoyun to Lianjing and then to him, but he guided these people with a few words, and it seems that soon he will be able to make Phoenix Tree his own.

If he had no selfish intentions, Lian Jing and Huo Yun would never believe him, so, after all, the disintegration started from the inside.

However, it is understandable for him to do so, but it seems that they have to inform Qiao of his death, otherwise they will not be harmed by Ye Chen in the end, but will be killed by his senior brother instead.

After the meeting in the morning, Qiao Gu knew the content of the meeting and everything his former senior brother said in the afternoon.He didn't show any disheartened expression, after all, as early as the moment he was expelled from the teacher's school, what happened to Qiao Chan had nothing to do with him.

And similarly, the ownership of Phoenix Tree is not something that Qiao Chan can interfere with.

Soon, he called Joe to his side, took out the poinciana from under the pillow, and stuffed it into his hand: "Now they all think that the poinniana is with me, and I am no longer safe. So I took the poinniana Leave it to you, don't come to the hospital to see me during this time, just stay at home, and study the secrets of the Phoenix Tree with Jingjing."

"I remember you told me before that twice, Jingjing became a real phoenix with the help of the phoenix wood. This time, the things she encountered were different from the past. They were either life or death. How can we make it turn into a phoenix smoothly, after all, Jing Jing is our strongest helper in defeating Ye Chen."

"If Jing Jing succeeds, we can be more confident and let it fight Ye Chen's dragon talisman. And Lian Jing and Huo Yun team up, even if they are against Ye Chen, it won't be a big problem. As for the others, Joe Isn't Zen very powerful? Let his Nanli solve the problem, I want to see if he is a hypocrite with double appearance."

If Nanli's entire sect didn't take action, Qiao Chan's back would definitely be broken by those people, so since he had spoken out, the mobs would be handed over to Nanli, and Ye Chen would be handed over to Lian Jing and Huo Yun.

As for Joe didn't...

"I selfishly hope that you will be safe, and it is best not to participate in Ye Chen's level of battle. But I know that you will definitely not agree in your heart, so you must pay attention to your own safety. Even if you lose all your skills, as long as your life is still alive, It's the greatest luck, you know?"

Qiao didn't hold the poinciana, and felt hot in his heart: "I, know! But what about your side, Master? If Ye Chen comes to your place, what will you do?"

"I don't care." Qiao Gu smiled easily, and patted Qiao's missing hand, "After living for so many years, it is already enough. If Ye Chen has a conscience, he can send me to find a master. If I live, I will I won't stand by him, so don't worry about me, the current me is worthless to him."

Without the Poinciana, what use value would he have?Used to threaten Joe without them?I'm sorry, if Ye Chen really had this plan, he wouldn't let him succeed.

His words were resolute and decisive, and it seemed to be saying his last words again. Joe didn't have a sore nose, and his throat was choked.

Seeing the restlessness in his heart, Qiao Gu smiled softly again, then stretched out his arms and rolled up his sleeves: "Do you remember what I told you when I was young?"

Joe didn't look at his wrist, and immediately rolled up his sleeves, nodded and said: "Remember, if something happens, just pull the little bell on your wrist, as long as the bell rings, no matter where you are Whatever happens, you will come."

"Yes, but this is not one-sided." Qiao Gu rang the bell on his wrist, "Listen."

Ordinary bells will definitely make a jingle sound if they are struck, but Qiao Guqiao is not different from this pair of bells. Only the two of them can hear the sound of the bells.

And Joe didn't and did hear.

"I promise you, if something happens to me, I will ring the bell. You have encountered a lot of big and small things over the years, and you have been able to judge my position, so come to
