Chapter 2274 Stronghold Visitors
Jiang Tian's face darkened and his expression became extremely solemn!
Seeing the blood soul whip sweeping towards him, he immediately retreated without even thinking about it.
Tsk tsk tsk... boom!
Almost at the same time as he pulled away, the slender red and black whip fell wildly like a phantom, directly tearing apart the afterimage he left behind!
Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!
Seeing this sinister scene, the three elders felt palpitations and chills all over their bodies!
If Jiang Tian had been even slower, he would have been caught by the Blood Soul Whip just now, and he might not be able to escape the end of his body being torn apart.
And just when the afterimage left by Jiang Tian was crushed and the slender whip was about to hit the ground, an astonishing scene appeared!
Whoosh whoosh!
Accompanied by a strange scream, Elder Chen flicked his wrist, and the shadow of the whip that was about to hit the ground suddenly rose up, as if it was intelligent, it drew a heart-stopping arc, and moved towards the withdrawal.
The slanting Jiang Tian swept away wildly.
"not good!"
"Jiang Tian!"
"careful……"
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!
As soon as the three people screamed in surprise, the slender long whip swept across the void more than ten feet, and struck Jiang Tian with a terrifying scream like a devil!
"It's over!"
"Jiang Tian!"
"No!!"
The three people exclaimed in shock, their expressions changed drastically!
At this moment, their hearts completely sank, as if they had fallen into a dark valley!
How can such a weird and powerful magic weapon be used against Jiang Tian?
No matter how powerful Jiang Tian's aptitude is, he is still only made of flesh and blood, but even if he is wearing a powerful defensive magic weapon, it may be difficult for him to calmly block this fatal blow!
Tsk tsk tsk tsk!
After the phantom-like whip struck Jiang Tian, his voice immediately changed, making a strange and heart-stopping sound!
"very good!"
At this moment, Elder Chen's eyes narrowed sharply, and a ferocious look flashed between his brows.
This sound undoubtedly reminded him that the Blood Soul Whip had hit the target, and the pleasure of the hit really made him excited!
But the next moment, he suddenly frowned, and a trace of hesitation flashed in his eyes!
"Um?"
The corners of Elder Chen's eyes twitched sharply, and he looked intently at the place where the whip passed by, his brows filled with doubts.
…
While Jiang Tian and Elder Chen were fighting fiercely in the cave hall outside the stone prison, in another spacious cave hall that was brightly lit and decorated with extraordinary decorations, Elder Guan, who was wearing a blood robe, welcomed a special guest!
There is no other reason why he is special, it is just because this person's identity is a little weird.
With his status, he shouldn't appear here. What's more, this person didn't know the specific location of this stronghold, but he still came!
And the reason why he was able to come here was because of the recommendation from a leader who happened to be out of the stronghold.
"Greetings to...Elder Guan!"
In the brightly lit cave hall, a middle-aged man in black robe stood with a bow, but his brows were slightly frowned, and there was a trace of hesitation in his eyes.
And when his reaction fell into the eyes of the other party, it naturally attracted a cold snort of disdain!
"Hmph! If I guessed correctly, I'm afraid you're not here to see Mr. Guan this time, right?"
The blood-robed old man who sat high on the throne, the Guan Elder who held the second highest position in the stronghold, had a sneer on his face, a cold look flashed in his eyes, and there was a hint of murderous intent in his eyes!
"Ahem... Elder Guan is joking!"
The middle-aged man in black below had his eyes twitching and his heart was filled with fear!
Although he came prepared this time and was fully confident that he would surprise the other party, he also knew that the senior officials of these strongholds were moody and might kill him if they got angry at the slightest moment.
"Hmph! I don't want to tell you anything secretly. I know you are here to find Elder Mu, but unfortunately, Elder Mu has been out for many days and has not come back yet. If you are looking for him, I'm afraid you are here in vain!"
Elder Guan had a sneer on his face, his eyes were full of disdain, and his words revealed unabashed ridicule and contempt.
In this stronghold, Elder Mu is the number one person, the chief elder of the stronghold, but he is only the number two person, the second elder.
If Elder Mu was here, it would naturally not be his turn to make the final decision on the affairs of the stronghold. He would even have to look up to the other party and obey his orders.
However, during this period of time, Elder Mu has been out and has not returned, so all the affairs of the stronghold, large and small, have fallen on him, with him making the final decision.
In this way, he really tasted the sweetness of the chief elder!
That kind of pride and momentum that holds the power of life and death makes it difficult for him to let go once he takes advantage of it. Deep in his heart, he even has an impulse to occupy this top spot forever!
But he also understood that once Elder Mu returned, he would want this throne to move away and hand over the power of the stronghold.
After all, reality is reality. He has not been appointed by the superiors. After all, he is only the second-in-command in the stronghold. Even if he is only half a step away, he cannot monopolize power.
And this matter, as time went by, became a big stone in his heart, and the hard edges and corners often pricked his heart.
After feeling the hesitation in the visitor's words and the strangeness in his eyes, his thoughts were stirred up, and one can imagine his mood at this time.
If he hadn't figured out the other party's purpose, he would have even been tempted to kill him in order to show off his power as a stronghold elder!
Seeing that the other party revealed his thoughts, the middle-aged man in black below had no choice but to no longer hide his teasing. He shook his head and sighed, smiling bitterly.
"Ahem! Elder Guan really has a sharp eye!"
"Hmph!" After hearing this, the old man in blood-robed face darkened, a cold light grew between his brows, and he almost couldn't help the urge to take action.
"In this case, I guess you have nothing to say to me. Seeing that I am in a good mood, get out of here!"
The old man in blood robe pondered for a moment, then cursed angrily.
Although the other party's answer was just as he guessed, it still felt extremely uncomfortable to hear it.
His status is obviously only half a step below Elder Mu, and now the power of the entire stronghold is indeed in his hands.
Under such circumstances, if the other party still said that, it was a slap in the face!
If he hadn't worried that the other party was an elder of Shengxuan Palace, he would have killed him immediately.
Faced with the expulsion of the old man in blood robe, the middle-aged man in black did not leave immediately. Instead, after weighing it for a while, he frowned and sighed, as if he had made up his mind.
"Elder Guan, calm down! I came here this time. I really wanted to discuss an important matter with Elder Mu, but since he is not here..."
"How?" Elder Guan's eyes moved slightly when he heard this, and he couldn't help but be curious.
Forcibly suppressing the anger in his heart, he once again focused on the other party's purpose.
yes!
