C1169 Mysterious old man
After all, although the reputation of the three sects' failure towards the Nine Peaks Tower s had once again received a huge boost, everyone was well aware that this was undoubtedly an increase of the three sects' killing intent towards the Nine Peaks Tower s. After all, the loss of twenty or so Saints in your group this time should be quite hard to bear. Given the character of the three sects, they would not let go of Nine Peaks Tower so easily.
Everyone was watching from the sidelines, and the many experts of Nine Peaks Tower did not dare to be negligent at all, as the defense of the entire Nine Peaks Tower could be said to have increased by more than several fold.
But unexpectedly, even after half a month had passed, not a single movement was seen from the three sects. It was as if everything that had happened before had no effect on the three sects, and the three sects still focused most of their energy on fighting the demons in the extreme west, as if they had completely let go of all that had happened to the Nine Peaks Tower.
There were also internal rumors that the three sects had almost never discussed this matter.
Even if there was, it was endless and was only limited to the disciples of the three sects. As for the elders of the three sects, they had never talked about this matter.
As a result, everyone felt a huge difference. It was clear that many people found this hard to believe. Not only that, even some of the other Domain Palace s in the Nine Regions tried to find some attitude from the three sects, but to no avail.
On the other hand, Qin Shaojie from the Nine Peaks Tower maintained the same attitude as the other three sects.
After the great battle, aside from requesting for Nine Peaks Tower's people to cultivate more, Qin Shaojie also did not seem to have directly responded to the battle between the three sects and the Nine Peaks Tower.
No one knew what exactly had been agreed upon between the two parties, and no one knew what would happen next, but their instincts told them that nothing could stop them from doing so.
I have come for so long, please come out as well.
Deep in the night, not far from Nine Peaks Tower, Qin Shaojie stood with his hands behind his back as he fought in the air. His tone didn't change much, but his pupils flickered slightly as he looked at the space in front of him. The current Qin Shaojie was only a first stage saint, but the power of his own consciousness was extremely tyrannical!
If there was anyone else present, it would be extremely shocking, because Qin Shaojie's surroundings would be completely empty. Other than the gentle breeze that would blow past from time to time, there were no other movements. The most important thing was that the name that Qin Shaojie called Senior.
One must know that very few people in the world could stand up to Qin Shaojie and be honored with his title of senior, and either that, their status would be respected by Qin Shaojie, or their strength would be extremely tyrannical!
"Haha, looks like the rumored number one expert of the younger generation is indeed powerful. It is really unexpected that even my aura can be sensed by him."
Finally, under Qin Shaojie's invitation, a deep laugh could be heard as well. Then, the space to the left of Qin Shaojie suddenly cracked, and a figure appeared out of thin air. It was almost impossible to see the figure's face clearly in the pitch-black night sky, or perhaps he was already one with the space here. It was impossible to pry out any information about him.
However, this voice gave off an ancient and heavy feeling, as if it was something that had passed through countless years of change. Each word revealed the cycle of history, the heaviness of the vicissitudes of life. His voice alone was enough to make people guess that he was an old man who had experienced many things!
Senior has been staying at the outskirts of Nine Peaks Tower for two days already, if there is anything you need to tell me, it's fine!
Qin Shaojie faced the old man in front of him and bowed with both hands.
He had sensed this aura two days ago, and although Qin Shaojie's divine sense was extremely powerful, it did not mean that she was the strongest existence in the entire Nine Peaks Tower. At the very least, in his eyes, the Supreme Elder of the Futian Pavilion was stronger than him. But at the same time this aura appeared in Qin Shaojie's senses, the great elder of the Futian Pavilion did not notice it in the slightest, causing traces of ripples to appear within Qin Shaojie's heart as well.
It had to be known that the Futian Pavilion's Supreme Elder was a Third-rank Saints, and was an extremely powerful figure even in the Third-rank Saints. In his words, there were very few existences in the Between the Heavens and the Earth that could suppress him.
And now, only he could feel this aura. This meant that this aura was specially released to avoid the others.
To be able to do something like this, it was sufficient to show that the old man had extraordinary strength and powerful methods. Even someone with Qin Shaojie's personality would have no choice but to admit and admire him, which was also the true reason why he addressed the old man in front of him as senior.
As long as one was strong, no matter what kind of power one was in, in any era, they would receive the respect of the people of the world. Qin Shaojie was no exception.
However, what surprised Qin Shaojie was that this Qi actually dragged him for two days, he had no intention of coming out, after all, facing this kind of expert, Qin Shaojie did not have absolute confidence in coming out. But if he didn't come out, who knew if this presence would continue to haunt him.
In these few days, he had been researching the uses of Shi Hezi who was inside his consciousness, if not for the fact that the hidden power of this aura was too strong, he would not be willing to make a choice at this time.
You are quite cautious. However, rest assured that this old man does not have any ill intentions this time around.
As for the fact that Qin Shaojie could see through his hiding place, it was quite a surprise to the old man. After all, in his eyes, Qin Shaojie was just a first stage saint, although her realm was tyrannical, but in front of him, it was nothing.
The old man continued to size Qin Shaojie up as he spoke, but this large number of things did not make Qin Shaojie feel bound.
I don't want to waste any words. I only want to confirm a few things this time.
However, this old man was straightforward and went straight to the point. Qin Shaojie was not the least bit surprised, Between the Heavens and the Earth who were able to reach this level of cultivation were rarely seen, and unless there was something important, these experts would not personally act.
Senior, please say it. As long as you are able to tell me, I will tell you everything I know.
Qin Shaojie nodded his head, towards the attitude of the elder, Qin Shaojie had to agree, after all he did not like to beat around the bush, and preferred to be straightforward. If it was possible, then let's talk. If it wasn't possible, then let's fight. This way, it wouldn't waste too much time.
demoness within the Nine Peaks Tower, will you recognize you as your master, or will you simply form a cooperative relationship with him?
However, the moment the old man asked this question, Qin Shaojie's previously calm face instantly fluctuated as his pupils contracted fiercely. There was an additional trace of wariness on his face and even the profound energy in his body began to undulate.
There were Demon Dwellers in Nine Peaks Tower, perhaps even the entire world knew of them. But the demoness and the demon dweller were completely different concepts, to the point where many people didn't even know where the demoness was. Even within the Nine Peaks Tower, the identities of these demoness s were kept a secret. Other than a limited number of people, the other Nine Peaks Tower warriors did not know anything. And those who knew of the identity of the demoness would definitely not inform anyone else in the outside world.
Because the demoness was involved in the Great Demon King's secret, no one could come into contact with it easily.
But the moment the old man in front of him appeared, he immediately went straight to the point, and this question was not just a question for, he even knew that the demoness recognized him as its master!
It was clear that this person's understanding of the demoness was beyond imagination!
The Between the Heavens and the Earth didn't rule out some of the older generation experts knowing about the information on the demoness. It was just that he couldn't be sure whether the person in front of him was an enemy or a friend. But no matter what, he would not easily leak out the demoness, because the matter involved the Great Demon King! If this news were to leak out, the entire world would probably be shaken.
Senior is truly amazing, since this is the case, this junior will not hide his strength anymore. Those demon dwellers were indeed demoness. However, it would be inconvenient to reveal his relationship with this junior.
Taking a deep breath, Qin Shaojie restrained the change in his expression, and said indifferently to the old man in front of him.
Since the other party had such strength, it was impossible for them to deceive him. Furthermore, the last time demoness fought against the three sects, countless people had been watching from the shadows, so it was likely that some of the stronger people could guess some information from the traces left behind. In Qin Shaojie's opinion, the existence of demoness was not a secret that he could keep hidden forever, so if that was the case, he might as well be more at ease and give off a fearless feeling.
As for whether this was recognition of ownership or cooperation, Qin Shaojie kept it to himself!
Some things don't make sense when they are exposed, and perhaps the feeling of having your face half covered is the best protection for now.
But you are a courageous person, you have at least acknowledged the existence of the demoness. But the most important question, you don't seem to have answered me. Hearing Qin Shaojie's reply, he started to smile faintly, but at the same time, the eyes on his facial features started to flicker.
Senior misunderstood. It's not that junior didn't answer, but he did. It's just that the answer might not be what senior wanted.
Shaking his head, Qin Shaojie said honestly.
You should be clear how strong this old man is. If this old man is willing, I will directly invade your consciousness. At that time, this old man will not only know the secrets of the demoness.
But the old man just laughed, he was obviously unsatisfied with Qin Shaojie's attitude.
However, under this kind of naked threat, Qin Shaojie actually showed no fear. Instead, a disdainful smile appeared on his face.
Senior is indeed powerful, but do you really think that I, Qin Shaojie, am so easily bullied? Not to mention this is only a phantom image of senior, even if senior's main body were here, he wouldn't be able to enter junior's divine sense to search for anything useful.
Qin Shaojie had never been afraid of threats, let alone these kind of threats that did not have substance to them.
If he did not even have this little bit of courage and confidence, then he did not have the qualifications to become the Tower Master of the Nine Peaks Tower.
How did you see that?
But Qin Shaojie's words made the old man's voice change a little, because he never thought that Qin Shaojie would actually be able to see through that this was not his true body!
Senior is a hundred times more secretive than me, if this sovereign has arrived, senior can easily enter the Nine Peaks Tower to look for me. I think that although you can't do whatever you want in the Nine Peaks Tower, it won't be hard for you to leave. However, for someone at Senior's level of strength to actually choose to wait for a junior outside of Nine Peaks Tower for two days, it was already unusual!
Qin Shaojie shrugged his shoulders, he did not hide anything, but his words were true.
That's all?
However, the old man clearly did not approve of this answer!
After all, that didn't mean anything. At most, it meant he was suspicious. Even the Third-rank Saints would not be able to easily detect just how brilliant his own methods were! He did not believe that Qin Shaojie was so sure just because of this speculation.
However, Qin Shaojie refused to answer his question!
But looking at Qin Shaojie's expression, what the old man said was not wrong. He really had other ways to see through all of this, but he did not say it!
