MTL - When Golden Finger Meets Salted Fish-Chapter 563 difficult aftermath
Like Jiang Mo, many people probably did not expect that the person who blew up the array would be the head of Qing Xiao. Therefore, after the person could not be found everywhere, and after a careful investigation, it was found that he was really the one who blew himself up, and the scene fell into silence for a while.
Especially for Xuanqingzong, the atmosphere was even more dignified to the extreme—in this battle, the foundation of Tianyang Peak was destroyed, and half of the tens of thousands of people who died due to the evil formation were Xuanqingzong's disciples. This is more than that, among the three Supreme Elders in the sect, one is missing, one is dead and the other is seriously injured, and now even the head who is in charge of the overall situation is gone, the blow to the sect is self-evident.
The entire Tianyang Peak was filled with gloom and gloom. Perhaps the only thing to be thankful for was the scale monsters who were once a big problem. Not only did they not become a big problem because of the two divine beasts, but they almost all died together with the Nine Nether Sect.
Yes, all together. When the Sect Master of Jiuyou was executed, those scale monsters were killed and injured, and the two elders who were hostile to them were also killed and injured, and the Mahayanas who were driven away finally harvested them easily. So far, the high-level members of the Jiuyou Sect have almost all been wiped out, and the scale monsters are almost the same. The two once-prosperous sects are only left with a few innocuous little ones.
It didn't take long for Jiang Mo to enter the space, but when he came out with Yun Qingyue, everyone had already started to deal with the aftermath.
Too many people died today, the bodies of our own people have to be collected and buried, and the enemies have to pile them up and set them on fire... Everyone is very busy and silent, and the atmosphere is almost suffocating.
Jiang Mo was a little uncomfortable, looking at the dead bodies, he didn't want to touch them. She took her senior sister's hand and said, "Ayue, let's go to Master and the others to see if there is anything we can do to help?"
There are many things to deal with aftermath, and embalming is just one of them, but as their identities, they naturally don't need to worry about these, after all, they can do more—although everything seems to be settled, but with the cunning of the Nine Nether Sect Master, who knows that they will Will there be anything left behind? Especially the man who laughed so villainously before he died, didn't the last demon who laughed like this also left two drops of demonic blood?
Naturally, Yun Qingyue didn't bother about collecting the corpse. She just pursed her lips and looked at the tragic scene in front of her, then nodded and followed Jiang Mo to find the master—her injury was still not healed, so it was Jiang Mo who took her. flying.
…
The two found the person without much effort, but when they got closer, they found that the atmosphere among them was delicate.
At this moment, the great war has just subsided, and the Mahayana period, which was supposed to be united to help the aftermath, is inexplicably divided into two factions, and there is a faint tendency to confront each other. And the root cause of the change in the situation was none other than Zhu Baiyi who was standing beside Qing Yu with folded arms.
Zhu Zongzhu's expression was cold, as if the matter had nothing to do with him, even if Jiang Mo and the two came, she could only give her a faint look.
The two of Jiang Mo didn't know, so they naturally stood beside Qing Yu after they arrived, looked at this side and then at the other side of the confrontation, and finally asked in confusion: "What's the matter, what happened?"
The faces of the people on the opposite side were not very good-looking, because Jiang Mo and Yun Qingyue had said earlier that they would form a Taoist couple, and Yun Qingyue was the daughter of Zhu Baiyi, so they were naturally opposites at the moment. But the ugly face was ugly, and someone on the other side explained: "It's not that I'm waiting to provoke trouble, but I wish the suzerain was infected with the magic pattern, and he attacked Elder Ming Yu before, how can we guarantee that she won't have an attack again in the future?"
Jiang Mo was startled, and subconsciously looked back, only to find that Elder Ming Yu was on his side. But soon she understood why, there was no other reason, it was just to protect her shortcomings, after all, it was Qing Yu who stood in front of her now.
Because the elder Ming Yu who was attacked was also on Zhu Baiyi's side, although the atmosphere between the two sides was not good, it was not yet at the point of tension.
Jiang Mo just looked around, but before she could speak, someone asked, "Then what do you mean? Don't tell me you wanted to yell and kill Sect Master Zhu just like those demons before? ! "
The other side choked for a moment, and the leading Mahayana turned his face away, and said: "That's not necessary, anyway, the Demon Race and the Nine Nether Sect Master are dead now. But if the magic pattern is not removed, it is still a hidden danger after all, it is better to let the Sect Master Zhu temporarily retreat , wait for her to completely suppress or get rid of the magic pattern before coming out." It is said to be in seclusion, but in fact it is imprisoned, it just sounds better.
Xuan Qingzong didn't want to care about it at first, after all, it was his own grand elder who was attacked by surprise. But Qing Yu stepped forward, and she has also reached the Mahayana at a young age. Judging from her potential, she will definitely not be inferior to Elder Ming Yu in the future. But Xuan Qingzong suffered heavy losses in this battle, and even the head of the sect was gone. Naturally, a talented sect like Qing Yu valued it more, and it was impossible to give up, or even let her renounce.
Ming Yu chose to forgive without making too many trade-offs, and the entire Xuan Qingzong stood in line with him. In addition, the people of the Red Blood Sect also defended the suzerain, and compared with the other side, the momentum here was obviously stronger.
So this confrontation didn't last long, and it was over. It's just that the banned cultivation base still hasn't been lifted.
***************************************************** *************************
After the war, everyone seemed to relax, because counting with their fingers, those who can make trouble and love to make trouble are basically dead. Therefore, in addition to dealing with the aftermath, even the obstinate gods who lived and died on their own had also re-arranged people to guard them.
Things seem to be back to normal, but there are still some issues that need to be resolved. For example, where did the elder Xuan Qingzong go missing? Later, where did the members of Hehuanzong who also wanted to go back to Xuanqingzong to check the situation go? They are all Mahayana cultivators. After the demons in the Mahayana period were all cannon fodder, they should be calm, but they disappeared inexplicably.
Thinking about it now, most of these people may have been arrested by the Sect Master Jiuyou, after all, they came back at an untimely time.
But with their status, it is impossible for everyone to give up easily. In particular, Xuan Qingzong found after some investigation that the soul lamp of the Supreme Elder was still on. Even though the lamp was so weak that it seemed that it might go out at any time, as long as the person is not dead, he must be rescued!
So everyone turned around and searched the entire Xuanqing Sect, especially turned Tianyang Peak upside down. It's a pity that they got nothing in the end, and it was extremely depressing - he must have been hiding in Tianyang Peak, with the evil formation before, the Nine Nether Sect Master would not waste such a good tonic. However, what is depressing is that Tianyang Peak is obviously their own territory, but Xuanqingzong's people can't find anyone.
Seeing that the evil formation was completely destroyed, the soul lamp of the Supreme Elder still weakened a little bit, and everyone was nervous, but also had a great deal of trouble. It seemed that there was a mine buried under my feet, which might explode at any time!
Yun Qingyue hadn't recovered from her injuries, but she couldn't stay still, so she followed the crowd to search around, and finally stared at her feet in a daze.
Jiang Mo naturally followed her, but when she couldn't find any clues by normal means, she naturally put her hope on the cheat - the system was her cheat, and the tasks issued by the system were also a kind of information channel in a sense.
Since the main quest had been marked as the final battle before, they should be considered complete after finishing the boss. The remaining missions of clearing the demonic blood are not counted. In the current situation, shouldn't the system release another side mission?
If she really doesn't publish it, she will ask the system to apply. The task description is the best way to obtain information!
While thinking this way, she opened the system's task list to check. The inadvertent glance suddenly stopped, there is no new task in the task list, but the previous task of the final battle is still unfinished. She was startled all of a sudden, they had already killed the boss, and the body of the Nine Nether Sect Master was also destroyed, so he was almost devastated. Could it be possible that such a person can be resurrected? !
Because of the lessons learned from the revival of the Demon Race, and the involvement of the Nine Nether Sect Master and the Demon Race, Jiang Mo had to be so worried. She was so frightened that she stopped breathing, which also caused Yun Qingyue to look back.
Yun Qingyue was keenly aware of Jiang Mo's sudden nervousness, so he asked, "What's the matter, did you find anything?"
Jiang Mo stared blankly at the task panel, paused, and shook his head hastily: "No." After he finished speaking, he paused again, and then cautiously probed: "Senior sister, do you think it is possible for the Nine Nether Sect Master to be resurrected? He He laughed so crazy when he died, and he had such a deep entanglement with the demons that he could even control the suzerain through the design of the magic pattern. Did he also learn the ability to resurrect the demons?"
Yun Qingyue felt that Jiang Mo's guess was inexplicable, but because of the secrets of the other party, she didn't completely deny it. Instead, she thought about the possibility carefully, and finally shook her head: "No, no matter how special he is, he is not a demon."
This made a lot of sense, and Jiang Mo felt relieved, after all, she didn't want to fight such a difficult boss again. And this time there are not so many scale monsters self-detonating output, it really won't be able to handle it again!
But after he breathed a sigh of relief, Jiang Mo was worried again—since the boss Jiuyou Sect Master is really dead, who will be the opponent in the so-called final battle? It can't be Zongzhu Zhu who was infected with the magic pattern, she didn't seem to lose her mind, and she wasn't that strong. And where are the missing people? Does it have anything to do with the so-called final battle?
All kinds of thoughts filled his mind, and finally Jiang Mo thought about it and suddenly came up with a terrible guess...
