1836 The most cunning old fox
But who would be so vicious? And why did he do that?
“After our investigation, this matter might be related to the temple.” After a moment of silence, ye Wentian said.
“The temple, why did they do this?” Ling Chuxi frowned. This mysterious power that countless people from all over the continent believed in had always been a mystery in her heart. Ever since she left Southern Xia, she thought that she would never have any more contact with the temple. However, in Jing ‘an source, she had unexpectedly encountered assassins from the temple. Now, she had once again heard news of the temple. Ling Chuxi had a feeling that her dispute with the deity temple would not end so easily.
“We’re just guessing. It might not be them. As for the reason, we don’t know.” Ye Wentian shook his head and said,”Chuxi, this matter concerns the safety of the entire human realm, as well as the life and death of countless common people. This time, other than attending the opening ceremony of the Golden core sect, we came to invite you to join us and investigate this matter together. After all, there are not many people in the younger generation who have your strength.”
“As long as it’s within my power, I’ll definitely do my best.” Ling Chuxi nodded her head heavily. If it was in the past, Ling Chuxi might have hesitated. However, after experiencing so many things, her personality had also changed greatly.
This was her hometown, where her family and friends were. She would never stand by and watch a disaster befall them.
“If I’m not wrong, Ling Gusong is most likely related to the temple. You can start with the hidden Ling family.” Gao canghan said.
“Head Gao, the reason why you didn’t let me kill him was not only because he and I are both descendants of the Ling clan, but also because you wanted to cast a long line to catch the big fish, right?” Ling Chuxi said thoughtfully.
“Hehe, if you kill Ling Gusong, you’ll become an enemy of the hidden Ling family. Don’t underestimate them. The hidden Ling family is no weaker than any of the five sects. I’m actually doing this for your own good.” Gao canghan laughed.
Ling Chuxi secretly called him an old fox. In terms of martial cultivation, Gao canghan might not be the strongest among the four sect Masters, but in terms of scheming, he was undoubtedly the most cunning one.
However, when she thought of how she had once plucked a feather from the most cunning old fox, Ling Chuxi’s mood became a little smug.
“Right, where is the temple?” Ling Chuxi asked curiously. She had asked Huangfu qingjue this question before. It was a pity that even though Huangfu qingjue was a divine envoy, he did not know the true location of the divine temple. The so-called divine temple that he had been to was just a cover. From this, one could see how mysterious the temple was.
Ye Wentian took out an ancient scroll and passed it to Ling Chuxi.
That scroll had already turned slightly yellow. It was obvious that it had been there for quite a number of years. After carefully opening it, one could see that it was actually a map. On the map, there was a misty land in the northern polar region, which was marked out with a red pen, appearing particularly prominent.
“This is where the temple is?” Said Ling Chuxi as she pointed at the mark. It seemed reasonable for the temple to be in such a polar place.
“This place is called boundless mountain, and it is one of the two forbidden areas of the continent. If our conjectures are correct, not only is the temple here, but the hidden Ling family is also here.” Gao canghan said in a deep voice.
“Speculation? You guys can’t be sure?” Ling Chuxi asked in surprise.
