I just traveled through time and you told me that Taoism is gone?

"If you can't handle even this little thing, what's the use of you! You all know the iron laws of the teaching. Do I need to tell you again what the consequences will be if the Earth Source Spirit is not brought back?"

The middle-aged man's eyes were as cold as hell, and his words showed murderous intent.

"Master, please have mercy!"

Nie Tian also reacted at this time, hurriedly struggled to get up, knelt on the ground, kowtowed and begged for mercy.

The man glanced at Nie Tian and glanced at Nie Tian's broken arm. There was no sympathy in his eyes, only indifference, as if Nie Tian was not one of his disciples.

Ye Su was slumped on the ground at this time, his body covered with gravel, blood continuously flowing from the corner of his mouth, and the look in his eyes was extremely dim.

"Teacher...teacher...two people came out to obstruct this mission one after another. The two of us are indeed over-whelmed but unable to do anything. That Li Hailong is even more of a burden. Taking him with us also distracted us a lot. Only then did we As a result, the task was not completed."

Ye Su struggled to get up, walked to Nie Tian's side, knelt on the ground again with a thud, and said feebly.

Although his life may be at risk this time, no one can accept death calmly. He felt that he still needed to struggle again.

After hearing Ye Su's words, the middle-aged man's eyes narrowed and he said:

"Guardian Ye, do you mean that my arrangement is inappropriate?"

"No...don't dare..."

"Hmph! The Earth Source Spirit has been robbed, and you actually have the nerve to make excuses here! Do you know that I already have two Earth Source Spirits in my hand now. I only need one more, and I can use the existing Heavenly Book as a guide to find it. The remaining parts of the Heavenly Book. Now all my plans have been ruined by you! I don’t know how long it will take until the next Earth Source Spirit appears. For this sin, it won’t be a pity for you to die ten thousand times!”

When the middle-aged man said this, his eyes seemed to burst out of fire, and his originally kind face became extremely ferocious, which showed that he was indeed very angry.

"Master, please calm down and ask the master to give us another chance. We are willing to make meritorious deeds and this time we will definitely regain the Earth Source Spirit."

Ye Su didn't dare to look directly into the middle-aged man's eyes, lowered his head and said tremblingly.

Nie Tian's reaction was not slow. He knew that this was the only chance for the two of them to survive, so he hurriedly responded:

"Yes, we know the name of that Taoist priest. We can definitely find him and take back the Earth Source Spirit. We also ask the leader to give us a chance so that we can make meritorious deeds."

The middle-aged man looked at the two people kneeling below and took a deep breath, then turned back and sat down on the Taishi chair.

He closed his eyes and put his hand on his forehead as if thinking about something.

After a moment of silence, the middle-aged man sighed and said:

"That's all, I'll spare you this time. I'll give you seven days. When the time is up, if the Earth Source Spirit doesn't appear in front of me, you will know the consequences yourself."

Ye Su and Nie Tian were overjoyed when they heard this. They couldn't restrain their excitement on their faces and kowtowed hurriedly:

"Thank you, Master, for not killing me."

It's no wonder they are so happy. You must know that so far, as long as it involves the Earth Source Spirit, they are the only two people who can survive in the hands of the leader.

How can you not be happy if you can escape from a certain death situation?

The middle-aged man looked at the overjoyed two people and waved his hands impatiently:

"get out."

In fact, he made this decision out of desperation after weighing the pros and cons.

If you want to find another Earth Source Spirit, but you don't know how long it will take to find it, it will definitely waste a lot of time.

Ye Su and Nie Tian recognized the person who snatched the Earth Source Spirit. It would definitely save more time to find this person and take it back directly.

Besides, if you want to achieve your goal, you must have all the Earth Source Spirits together, not even one less.

From this point of view, it is better to save the lives of these two people for the time being. Compared with their lives, regaining the Earth Source Spirit is the most important thing.

Ye and Su didn't dare to stay any longer after hearing the middle-aged man's eviction order. They hurriedly responded and crawled out of the hall.

Watching the two people exit the hall, the middle-aged man shook his head and shouted to the door:

"Ling Yue, come in."

After the words fell, Guard Ling, who had brought Ye Su here before, opened the door and walked in.

"Master, what are your orders?"

Ling Yue asked with a respectful salute.

"You go and follow the two of them. I don't trust them in their work. Once you find the person who robbed the Earth Source Spirit, kill him and bring the Earth Source Spirit back. As for the two of them, I don't want to see them again because they are incompetent. I understand. ?"

The middle-aged man said to Ling Yue in a calm tone, without any fluctuation between the lines, as if murder was an extremely trivial matter in his eyes.

"Yes."

Ling Yue responded briefly. It was his usual style to never talk nonsense or delay in doing things, so the middle-aged man was not surprised by this.

After saying that, Ling Yue exited the hall directly.

The middle-aged man was the only one left in the empty hall. He stood up, turned around and walked toward the back of the hall.

Arriving at the wall at the end of the hall, the middle-aged man stood still, stretched out his left hand and turned a ruby ​​ring on his right index finger.

"Boom - boom -"

As the man stopped what he was doing, the originally fine wall began to tremble slightly, and roaring sounds continued to be heard.

Immediately afterwards, the wall flipped backwards.

Behind this wall, a secret room of more than ten square meters appeared.

When the middle-aged man walked into the secret room, what he saw was not the strange and unsightly things he expected, but some extremely simple household items.

There was a desk and a chair against the wall, and a single bed on the other side, with a rickety figure lying on the bed.

The man had been facing the wall from beginning to end, and he never moved even after the man came in.

The middle-aged man came to the desk, pulled out a chair, sat down, and said:

"Li Chen, something happened to the Earth Source Spirit. I will bring him over later."

"Um…"

The person on the bed responded calmly. Although it was just a single word, the vicissitudes of life and helplessness could be heard in his voice.

"Don't worry, this fragment of the Book of Heaven belongs to your Li family. I won't pry. As long as you can help me find all the earth's source spirits, I will protect the safety of your Li family. As for your incompetent grandson, I will also educate you." I will arrange a suitable position for him and ensure that he will be safe for the rest of his life."

The middle-aged man was not angry because of Li Chen's indifference, and continued to mind his own business.

It is not difficult to tell from their conversation that Li Chen is the head of the Li family and Li Hailong's grandfather.

Li Chen sneered after hearing the man's words:

"Although you have never pried into the fragments of my Li Family's Book of Heaven, they are still for your use now. What's the difference between the two?"

The old voice was full of ridicule, but it was more self-deprecating.

In this troubled time, the contents of the Heavenly Book in the family were inadvertently leaked, and these believers who claimed to be gods came to the door. The leader was the man sitting in the room at this time.

Although the Li family has a lot of wealth, money does not play half the role in some things.

Facing the masters of the Lord God Sect, the Li family was helpless.

Under some coercion and inducement, Li Chen had no choice but to sacrifice himself and the Book of Heaven in exchange for the safety of his family.

"I hope you can keep your word, I will help you, and you must do your best to protect my Li family."

Li Chen turned over and looked at the man sitting on the chair. Although his eyes were a little yellow due to his age, there was a burning light in his eyes.

Although Li Chen was reduced to being controlled by others, his momentum as the head of the family did not diminish at all.

The middle-aged man looked at Li Chen and smiled faintly. He stood up and walked out of the room. He stopped at the door and said lightly:

"Don't worry, I, Shenying, always keep my word. Just do what you should do."

After saying that, the man who called himself Shenying walked out of the room and disappeared from Li Chen's sight.
