My apprentice is a little weird?

Chapter 159 Xuntian Pavilion

Lianshan City.

In the abandoned City God Temple in the east district of the city.

An ordinary old man with white hair and beard and an ordinary-looking middle-aged man stood quietly.

The old man was wearing a white robe. He glanced calmly at the cracked statue of the City God in front of him, then reached out and took out a cracked bronze mirror.

He looked at the bronze mirror in silence for a long time and said:

“That’s it…”

The middle-aged man standing at the side bowed and said respectfully:

"To reply Pavilion Master, the Qi was only traced to this point, and then it was disconnected. Later, it appeared for a moment in the Dongliao area bordering Lianshan City. The place was originally called Xiaoquan Village, and then it was destroyed for some reason."

"No news came back from the people we sent out..."

The old man fell silent again, closed his eyes slightly and then slowly opened them, a sharp light bursting out of his eyes!

"Keep looking~ If he's alive, I want him. If he's dead, I want his body~"

"Yes."

The middle-aged man saluted again and then slowly retreated.

The old man lowered his head and stroked the broken bronze mirror, his brows deeply furrowed.

"How is it possible... How could it suddenly explode? And then I suddenly lost my senses, I can't sense anything at all..."

"The Dao mirror is broken, the devil emerges, and the great calamity is coming. Is it really going to come true?"

The old man fell into silence as these words echoed in his mind.

At this moment, I suddenly felt a sense of being watched.

Looking up, my sight passed through the shabby roof, penetrated the clouds in the sky, and fell on the ferry that was shuttling through the strong winds.

To be precise, it fell on Shen Ming.

He and Shen Ming looked at each other from a long distance, the former's eyes were deep and the latter's were clear.

"What a strange girl~"

The old man looked behind her.

Jiang Yan stood behind Shen Ming without knowing when, and bowed to the old man from a distance.

The old man did not return the greeting nor express anything, but he also did not look at them anymore.

Jiang Yan felt the gaze disappear and he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Ming'er, do you... know that senior?"

Shen Ming shook his head absentmindedly. "I don't know him, but he feels familiar..."

Jiang Yan frowned slightly and silently pulled Shen Ming to his side.

"Don't come over here to play if you have nothing to do. What if you fall down?"

"Oh~"

Shen Ming responded softly, but he was still a little dazed, and the bracelet on his wrist also returned to its normal state, like an ordinary dead object.

At this time, Jiang Yan had some thoughts in his mind.

Jiang Yan knew the man just now, so he bowed solemnly.

There is no other reason. There are only nine domains and eight sects in the entire Xuanqing Continent. The nine domains are nine major regions, and the eight sects are recognized as the eight strongest forces.

However, there is no exact ranking for these eight sects; they only represent the strongest immortal sect in each domain, so no one can make a comparison.

No sect is so idle as to travel all the way over there to compete with each other.

But when it comes to which is the most mysterious force, it is generally recognized as Xuntian Pavilion in Lingxiang Realm.

The number of people in this pavilion is unknown, the strength of the top management is unknown, the location is unknown, and the main immortal path they practice is unknown.

However, its influence is spread throughout the entire Lingxiang Realm. It is well aware of major events in the world, and its control over the Lingxiang Realm has even reached an outrageous level.

There is almost nothing that can be hidden from them, and their disciples are proficient in alchemy, magic, fighting, talismans, and formations.

But they themselves never step out of the Lingxiang area and are only active inside. The outside world cannot obtain any information about them, so they are extremely mysterious.

The old man just now was the head of Xuntian Pavilion.

The outside world doesn't know his name, only his surname, and people call him Cang Lao.

And for some reason, Jiang Yan had the opportunity to see his image, so he recognized him.

But what he didn't expect was that the head of Xuntian Pavilion actually came out in person? !

Although he only appeared in Lianshan City, he finally stepped out of Lingxiang Territory!

"Strange... why did that senior suddenly appear in Lianshan City, and in that City God Temple~ Could it be... related to Ming'er..."

Jiang Yan slumped in the recliner and closed his eyes in thought.

"When I first met Ming'er, she was being hunted... and the people who were hunting her were some second-rate sects in Lingxiang Territory, who said they wanted to take her back~"

"And when we interrogated that person later, we learned that they were not the only ones looking for Ming'er, but many forces were looking for her~"

"The one who can command so many forces should be the mysterious Xuntian Pavilion..."

"Ming'er might have escaped from there~"

Thinking of this, Jiang Yan's mind suddenly flashed with chaotic and disordered mumblings, and he couldn't help but feel a little irritated.

"The power of Xuntian Pavilion is unknown, and I don't know what they have done to trap Ming'er all these years..."

"And with their terrifying intelligence-gathering capabilities, I wonder if the identity I created for Ming'er can be hidden from them..."

"Forget it, forget it. None of this matters now. The most important thing right now is to take Ming'er away from here first and return to the Ancient Immortal Gate as soon as possible to be truly safe!"

Jiang Yan slowly opened his eyes, stood up with the help of the handrail and walked towards the bow. Shen Ming followed behind him obediently, holding the corner of his clothes.

All the disciples passing by along the way saluted, and then looked at Shen Ming behind him with doting eyes. If it weren't for the murderous look on Jiang Yan's face, they would probably have gone up to him to ward off the cold and warm him up.

After walking to the bow of the ship, Jiang Yan said something in a loud voice that was heard by everyone.

"My fellow brothers, this boat is too slow. How long will it take to get back? Let's speed up this old boat. You better stand firm!"

Everyone felt something was wrong: "Huh? What...what does it mean?"

However, they soon found out.

Jiang Yan did not enter the cockpit, but stood at the bow and made a seal. He wrote a rune in the void and directly hit the restriction on the hull.

The divine light of the formation outside the ferry suddenly retracted, and one by one the forbidden inscriptions began to return to the hull, making the entire ship look extraordinary and magical, and it began to madly absorb the spiritual energy between heaven and earth!

Click click

A slight cracking sound was heard!

The disciples felt something was strange, as if the sound shouldn't appear on the boat.

At this moment, Duan Haonan was hiding in the room and secretly contacting the headmaster without telling Jiang Yan, but he suddenly heard the clicking sound, and his heart trembled!

He had heard this sound!!

"Is this... the sound of the ferry's restriction being activated to the critical value?!"

"Hmm~Haonan, what are you talking about? Did Jiang Yan do something weird again?"

A powerful voice came from the jade disc in front of Duan Haonan, immediately bringing him back to reality.

He explained with a panicked expression, and quickly pinched the Mountain-Suppressing Technique with his hands, preparing to cast a spell to calm himself.

"Master! Elders! There is no time to explain! I have to..."

But before he could finish his words, a huge inertia suddenly hit him!

He was caught off guard and fell backwards onto the wall! The strong inertia and the continuous acceleration of the ship made him unable to move at all, and he couldn't even buckle himself up!
