Chapter 136 Seeing Through the Disguise
They were sent to the sect because they were all born with the talent to cultivate immortality, but now at such a young age, without a solid foundation, they have been staying in such a large formation for such a long time...
Zhou Ling knew in her heart that now was not the time to think about the future. It was already a great blessing for them to be able to get out alive, go home, and see their parents again.
But their existence is also the pillar and hope of the Ice Domain Sect's future.
Today, these children are facing a hopeless path to becoming immortals, which is also a devastating blow to this sect.
Zhou Ling is a disciple of Wan Dao Sect. She knows something about the sect's past. In the past, before her master became a disciple of Wan Dao Sect, their sect was in a shaky period and was coveted by many parties. It was almost, just an instant, and there would no longer be Wan Dao Sect in this world.
Although the Ice Domain Sect now has an advantage in geographical location and few people would set their sights on moving here, it is now seriously damaged and it is likely that some people will covet it.
"Thank you two fairies, and Brother Chicken and Brother Ox. I am Sect Master Ye of the Ice Domain Sect. On behalf of the entire Ice Domain Sect, I would like to thank you for saving my life!"
In fact, the barrier that supported the soil and gravel had been completely shattered during the time when the child was brought up.
The reason why the people below were not buried was because the little girl Zhou Ling was trying to break through her limits and herself again.
Relying on her deep understanding of the Five Elements, she played a big game in front of everyone.
With his own strength, at the moment the barrier was broken, he replaced the original position of the barrier and held up all the rubble and sand, preventing those who had not yet had time to get out from being buried underground.
How could the old leader of the Ice Domain Sect not notice her actions? He was grateful for Zhou Ling's help.
After sending the last Ice Domain Sect disciple out, he climbed out of the cave. The first thing he did after coming up was not to do anything else, but to lead all his disciples to kneel heavily to Zhou Ling and his group, expressing his gratitude with words.
"Please stand up, senior." Zhou Ling had been holding up the mud and sand with the help of the earth spirit for a while. His face turned red from holding it in. As soon as he let go and collected the spiritual power, the collapsed mud instantly formed a big pit, which almost trapped the old master who was kneeling on the ground to pay his respects.
She quickly reached out to help, and while grabbing the old man's arm, she also wanted to help him stand up and get him off his knees.
In order to rescue them, Zhou Ling almost lost her own life. She could accept the gratitude, but seeing people who were much older than her kneeling and bowing at every turn, she felt that her life was about to be shortened. The thoughts flashed through her mind and she could not avoid it.
The culprit behind all this was that dead fox.
There was no need for anyone to remind them; almost every Ice Domain Sect disciple who was rescued, even the toddlers who were just learning to speak, looked at the fox with something strange in their eyes.
Disgust, hatred, and murderous intent cannot be concealed.
Zhou Li felt uncomfortable holding the dead fox and facing so many people's attention. He looked around and finally handed the fox, which was hammered half to death, to the hands of the leader of the Bingyu Sect.
Speaking of which, regarding Ling'er's revenge, she has already taken revenge on the chicken, and the rest should be handed over to the leader of the Ice Domain Sect. After all, they are the biggest victims in this incident.
When they were underground, they couldn't tell the time. Now that they were on the ground, a group of people each rode on flying magic tools and headed for the nearby Ice Domain Sect. Only then did Zhou Ling realize that it was another day of sunset and a long time had passed.
The setting sun was like fire, burning half of the sky in the west.
Zhou Ling faced the light and squinted her eyes. She felt very tired. She snuggled in her mother's arms and looked at the sunset. Her eyelids were heavy and she felt like dozing off. Until she saw a small black dot in the blood-red sunset...
She was just a small black dot in the previous second, and in the next second, Zhou Ling was already eager to see the outline of the flying magic weapon she was riding on.
Since it was also produced by his master, how could Zhou Ling not recognize it?
But... this... how is this possible?
She rubbed her eyes and used her spiritual sense to clearly see that the person sitting on the flying magic weapon and rushing towards them was none other than the old ancestor Chi Xiao, whom she had only met once!
Master said that Chi Xiao Patriarch rarely went out. Her existence was like a magic needle that stabilized the sea. When the wind and waves were calm, she was somewhat forgotten. But once the wind and clouds began to surge, her role would be most appropriately demonstrated.
So, she actually chose to leave the sect and come to her at this time, is it because the time has come for things to get turbulent?
"Brother Ye, it's been a while since we last met. How are you doing lately?"
The voice arrives before the person arrives.
The two parties met head-on, and it was difficult to pretend not to see each other. Fortunately, Chi Xiao did not intend to hide anything and greeted the head of the Bingyu Sect, Ye, from a distance.
"Junior Sister Chi Xiao, why are you suddenly willing to leave the sect?"
Having just experienced the ups and downs of life and the sect, Sect Leader Ye was not in a very good mood. He forced a smile and greeted Patriarch Chi Xiao.
Chi Xiao, on the other hand, was a man who knew when to quit. He glanced intentionally or unintentionally at Zhou Ling and her mother, as well as the injuries on their bodies.
After making sure it was intact, he nodded with satisfaction.
"Brother, what are you talking about? Although I don't like going out, I will go out without hesitation when there is a sect mission that requires me to go out. Now that I have gone out for a sect mission, I feel that since I am here, I am going to take a walk around. The weather in the north is very good, and I want to feel the rare coolness in the hot summer. But...Brother Ye, are you going out with the whole sect?"
Chi Xiao was quite puzzled and asked.
"It's hard to explain this matter in a few words... Junior Sister Chi Xiao, if you have nothing else to do, would you like to come to the sect to have a chat?"
How can you be the leader of a sect without some skills?
As the head of the sect, the first skill he had to learn was how to judge people.
Look at a person’s character and his identity.
Coincidentally, these two things can now be perfectly applied to Zhou Ling and Zhou Li.
How could two young cultivators who had only established their foundation qi save the entire sect?
Too many people cast curious eyes on the two of them, unfamiliar faces and names they had never heard of.
But only Sect Leader Ye could see that the disguises they used on their faces were not the common disguise techniques used in the immortal cultivation world, so there was no fluctuation of spiritual power.
He was knowledgeable and after paying close attention again, he discovered the clue.
It is not a method used in the world of immortals, but the most unpretentious and primitive means of disguise in the mortal world.
This little trick is easy to be overlooked, but if someone is interested, it is not impossible to unravel it and use the power of spiritual consciousness to slowly remove the disguise and analyze her true appearance.
Little Taoist friend Zhou Ling, who is famous in the world of immortal cultivation, and her mother who is so beautiful, ah...
Such a big thing has happened, and Chi Xiao’s arrival is the best proof.
I also need to remind them about the details of disguise.
