The master comes down the mountain: I don’t want to be a son-in-law

"Ancestor, save me!"

When Jiang Zifeng saw Gao Qi appear, he felt like he had grabbed a life-saving straw.

Gao Qi looked at him and nodded slightly: "Although your ability is a little lacking, at least you are still strong and did not bring shame to my Jiang family. Don't worry, I am here, you will be fine."

Jiang Zifeng finally felt relieved.

"You old thief Gao Qi!" Luo Qing cursed loudly, "You killed my senior brother and caused chaos in Tiandu. What is your intention?"

"Humph! I'm just cleaning up traitors and incompetents for Tiandu!" Gao Qi sneered, "Yun Yangzi accepted a bunch of you trash, as well as that rebellious Li Muchen, who went against the will of heaven, accepted demons and raised monsters, and went against Tiandu. This is the root of the chaos in the world!"

Then he burst into laughter again.

The golden hairpin in Lin Manqing's hand moved, and the thin line of fire appeared again, wrapping around Jiang Zifeng's neck.

"Gao Qi, I want to see how you can protect him!"

The shadow of Gao Qi in the distant sky did not move, but the mysterious hand appeared again in the void before his eyes.

But this time, everyone was prepared. Not only Lin Manqing, the people around her, and the nine Tiandu disciples, all took action.

For a moment, magic weapons flew everywhere, shattering the void where the mysterious hand was.

The hand also disappeared.

Then, everyone formed a circle, surrounding Jiang Zifeng in the middle. The magic power vibrated, and an invisible magic barrier stood up in the surrounding void.

No matter how strong Gao Qi is, he has to break through this magical barrier first to save Jiang Zifeng, and Lin Manqing can take Jiang Zifeng's life with just a move of her hand.

Lin Manqing did not rush to take action.

Because she knew that Jiang Zifeng was just a puppet, and he would be worthless if he died. She also didn't believe that killing Senior Brother Xi was something that Jiang Zifeng could decide on his own. The culprit was Gao Qi, and since Gao Qi had made it clear that he wanted to protect Jiang Zifeng, it showed that Jiang Zifeng was very important to the Jiang family.

Lin Manqing looked at Gao Qi's shadow and said with a smile, "If I guess correctly, Jiang Zifeng is your chess piece to control Tiandu, right?"

Gao Qi didn't say anything.

Lin Manqing added: "If he dies, all your ambitions will probably go to waste, right? The Eight Ancient Clans... Hehe, those old guys must be watching from heaven!"

She looked up into the depths of the sky. The sun was passing through the zenith, and there seemed to be another sun next to it.

"Those seven families must have been waiting for this moment!" The golden hairpin in Lin Manqing's hand moved slightly, tightening the line of fire on Jiang Zifeng's neck.

"You dare!" Gao Qi threatened.

"What am I afraid of?" Lin Manqing said with a smile, "I have even come to the Heavenly Road and have been called a demon. Do you think I dare to kill a mentally retarded child of the Jiang family?"

Jiang Zifeng felt ashamed and angry when he heard this. His face turned red, his chest heaved violently, his fists were clenched, and the internal energy was surging. However, the line of fire around his neck was constantly holding his life, so he could not move at all.

"What do you want?" Gao Qi asked.

"Release my two younger brothers and the eldest senior brother." Lin Manqing said.

Yun He and the others were stunned. Although they had guessed it in their hearts, they were still shocked and angry when they heard that their senior brother was in Gao Qi's hands.

Gao Qi said coldly: "If you have the ability, come and save him yourself."

Lin Manqing grabbed Jiang Zifeng and said, "It seems like you don't really care about his life or death!"

Jiang Zifeng was shocked: "Ancestor! Ancestor, save me! Ancestor, save me..."

Lin Manqing said with some disgust: "You should shout less. You are losing the dignity of the Jiang family bloodline. Your ancestors may not like you anymore."

Jiang Zifeng quickly shut his mouth.

Gao Qi looked at Jiang Zifeng, his expression changed slightly, he snorted coldly, and suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed a person out of the void.

"Old Seventeen!"

"Junior sister!"

"Wanqing!"

The disciples of Tiandu shouted out one after another.

Lin Manqing was also surprised. She didn't expect that Xiang Wanqing had fallen into Gao Qi's hands.

She knew that Lin Yun Yanjin and the senior brother were both in the Mountain and River State Map, so they were safe for the time being, and there was still a glimmer of hope that the Erba Divine Man could rescue them.

But Xiang Wanqing was in great danger when she fell into Gao Qi's hands.

Among all the disciples in Tiandu, Xiang Wanqing and Li Muchen have the closest relationship. After Lin Yunyan got into trouble, it was Xiang Wanqing who came down the mountain to pass on the message to her regardless of everything, and then returned to Tiandu to pick her up.

Lin Manqing must not let anything happen to Xiang Wanqing.

She was just thinking about how to exchange hostages with Gao Qi when the huge void in the distant sky suddenly disappeared, leaving only Gao Qi's voice:

"If you want to save people, bring Jiang Zifeng to Zixiao Palace..."

The sound gradually became fainter and disappeared among the mountains and sea of ​​clouds.

Lin Manqing frowned. She didn't expect Gao Qi to be so difficult to deal with. Not only did he have powerful magic, but he was also cold-blooded and ruthless. In his hands, Jiang Zifeng was just a chess piece.

She turned the Fire Phoenix Hairpin, and the fire line spread from Jiang Zifeng's neck, but suddenly penetrated into his shoulder, entwined his meridians, and penetrated his scapula.

Jiang Zifeng suddenly felt as if thousands of ants were drilling into his heart and was in extreme pain. His scapula was pierced and his magical powers were locked, so he was unable to use magic to fight back.

Seeing his face full of pain, his teeth chattering, his inability to make a sound, and beads of sweat rolling down his forehead, Yun He sighed. It was not out of sympathy, but just emotion. How could two brothers who had been together for a hundred years end up like this?

Could it be that Tiandu has fallen into decline in the hands of their generation!

"Where is the Zixiao Palace?" Lin Manqing asked.

"The Zixiao Palace is the highest point in Tiandu. It is usually where the old immortals who are more respected than the sect leader live." Yunhe replied.

"More virtuous and respected than the Sect Master?" Lin Manqing asked in surprise, "Shouldn't people like him be in the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation?"

Yun He said, "Generally, people who enter the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation will not come out, but there are exceptions. For example, the head of Tiandu Sect usually rotates every 500 years. At this time, the eight elders will come down to examine the new successor. These immortals usually live in Zixiao Palace. Of course, we are not qualified to enter Zixiao Palace without being summoned, so I don't know when and which immortals lived there."

"Haha," Lin Manqing sneered at the sky, "Eight surnames are on duty, and they let Gao Qi do this down there. It seems that the other seven surnames are not that good!"

Although Yun He also felt that the situation in the sky was a bit strange, he felt uncomfortable because Lin Manqing's belittling of the other seven surnames was equivalent to belittling his master Yun Yangzi.

However, he did not refute anything, but just said: "The Jiang family is a little special."

"What special method?"

Yun He pondered for a moment and said, "At this point, I am not afraid to say it out loud. Legend has it that when the gods and demons fought each other, the heaven and earth were in chaos, and the way of heaven was almost rebuilt. Kunlun was first divided and then united, and the founder built Tiandu and summoned all the immortals in the world to form a magic circle to inherit the way of heaven, relying on a divine object."

"What divine object?"

"The Book of Conferred Gods!"

"The Book of Conferred Gods?" Lin Manqing was slightly stunned. "Could it be the legendary Conferred God List?"

Yun He shook his head and said, "The Investiture of the Gods is a folk legend. It is the common people's beautiful wish. They believe that there is a court in heaven, with an emperor, civil and military officials, just like on earth. In fact, there is nothing in heaven. The so-called Tao is nothing but a void that cannot be grasped."

"So what is the Book of Conferred Gods?"

"The Book of Conferred Gods is the fundamental thing for the Heavenly Dao to transform from the virtual to the real, and it is also the foundation pillar that supports the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation. Without this thing, the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation cannot be built."

"What does this have to do with the special nature of the Jiang family?"

"No one knows where the Book of the Investiture of the Gods came from, but the earliest Book of the Investiture of the Gods appeared in the Shennong tribe. Later, Shennong's power declined, Emperor Yan abdicated, and Emperor Huang unified the world, but the Book of the Investiture of the Gods was still in the hands of the Jiang family. When our ancestor Lu Wu founded Tiandu, he also borrowed the Book of the Investiture of the Gods from the ancestors of the Jiang family."
