C1170 The Reason
Gu Wentian's claws and teeth were frightened by Du Qi's Qi, and they started retreating. When they saw Du Qi easily injure the three of them from afar, they recalled some of the techniques that Gu Wentian often revealed. They guessed that Du Qi must be someone on the same level as Gu Wentian. How could they have the courage and ability to fight Du Qi? They could not help but rush out of the hall. If they were a little slower, it would be a disaster. No one cared about the three injured people at all.
After Gu Wentian's minions left, Du Qi saw that there were twenty-three people in the hall besides the three injured people. This didn't match the total number of the three elders, the five guardians, and the twelve deacons. Furthermore, Huang Feng wasn't included. Could it be that Gu Wentian's minions hadn't left the hall yet, and were waiting for an opportunity to cause some damage?
The twenty-three people didn't know what Du Qi was thinking, but they saw that those who could threaten them had withdrawn. All of their expressions relaxed, and some of them collapsed onto their chairs. Some of them directly fell to the ground, looking at Du Qi, Wuyou, and the others with bitter smiles on their faces. Wuyou looked at Du Qi, then bowed to everyone. He asked in a low voice, "Elders, guardians and deacons, what is going on?"
Du Qi saw that the acupoints of these twenty-three people had been sealed and their cultivation had been sealed. Their spirits were weak, and their expressions were exhausted. Moreover, all of them were injured. It was obvious that they had been tortured by Gu Wentian and his claws quite a number of times. Thinking that these people would be his subordinates, Du Qi suddenly felt a pain in his heart. He said sincerely, "I came late, and let everyone suffer!" As he spoke, Du Qi waved his hand to remove the restrictions on their bodies. He wanted them to regain their mobility. As for the injuries on their bodies... It was inconvenient for Du Qi to treat them one by one. He could only let them slowly heal themselves.
The elders and the others recovered their strength, and their mental state immediately became much better. They all looked at Du Qi with gratitude. One of the elders let out a long sigh and said, "Ai! This matter is a long story. It's all caused by the position of Sect Master!"
Everyone in the hall nodded in agreement when they heard this, and some could not help but sigh with emotion. It was still the elder who had spoken. He continued, "Six years ago, Gu Wentian came here and requested to take over the Chaostic Essence Sect. We only told him according to the Yellow Emperor's decree that he only has the right to take over the Chaostic Essence Sect. If he wants to take over the Chaostic Essence Sect, he must pass a series of tests. At that time, that bastard didn't say anything out of the ordinary, but after that, he didn't pass the test. Thus, he started to feel uneasy. First, he secretly controlled the deacons. Even the deacons who contacted him did not let him go, in case the deacons inform the other people who might be qualified to take over the Chaostic Essence Sect. "
At this point, the elder looked at the few people in the hall. Then, he said, "Not long after, he became even more daring. He actually took control of the three of us and the five protectors. He threatened the three of us to obey him as the master of the Chaostic Essence Sect. The three of us, the five protectors, and the deacons would naturally rather die than obey. As a result, he continued to torture and humiliate us. Young Master Li Chengde and the elders of the family had come here to request to take over the Chaostic Essence Sect. That bastard seemed to have sensed the danger and didn't give Young Master a chance to test him. Thus, he locked Young Master Li and the elders together with us and sealed off the exit and exit of Fenghui Town. He imprisoned our family members as well and tortured us even more. He wanted us to submit. "
Du Qi followed the elder's gaze and found that Li Chengde was about twenty-five or twenty-six years old. He was only at the early Nascent Soul stage, but his three elders' martial arts were not high. The strongest martial arts cultivation of the Third Elder, the Fifth Guardian, and the deacons were only at the late stage of Embryonic Breath, and the weakest was only at the mid stage of Core Formation. No wonder they could not resist and were easily controlled by Gu Wentian.
At the same time, Du Qi could not help but break out in a cold sweat. If Gu Wentian had known earlier that he, Wenn Wanru, and the rest had the qualifications to take over the Chaostic Essence Sect, fortunately, this matter didn't happen. Otherwise, the consequences would be hard to predict!
The elder didn't care about Du Qi and the others' thoughts and feelings. He just continued, "Fortunately, you guys came. Otherwise, I don't know how much torture we would have to suffer. This young master had a strange facial expression. He came with Daoist priest Tianyi. I think it must be Du Qi, Young Master Du. This is great!"
Du Qi quickly bowed and said," I am Du Qi, with Miss Wenn Wanru, Young Master Huang Lianyun, and Young Master Jia Yulin. All of them had come for the position of Sect Master. The three elders, the protectors, deacons, and Young Master Li were all injured. May I ask all of you to report your safety to your family before resting? How about we discuss the test of the Sect Master after everyone has recovered a little? ”
The elder nodded in satisfaction and continued: "Our Chaostic Essence Sect was built according to the Yellow Emperor's decree. Not only does the person in charge of the Chaostic Essence Sect have to have a profound cultivation, but they also have to have complete talents. More importantly, they have to have a good character. Since all of you are here for this position, you can accept the Sect Master test at the same time. Only those who have passed the test are qualified to take over the Chaostic Essence Sect. We will go and rest according to Young Master Du's wishes. The Sect Master test will be held here tomorrow morning. "
Du Qi and the others had no objections to the elder's arrangement. They just didn't know what kind of test it was, but they didn't know what kind of test it was. Even Gu Wentian couldn't pass it. This inevitably made Du Qi, Wenn Wanru, and the others nervous.
There were many empty rooms in the inner chambers of Chaostic Essence Sect. It wouldn't be a problem for Du Qi and the others to rest. As soon as the elder finished speaking, he hurriedly came to meet Du Qi. The other two deacons met Wenn Wanru and Jia Yulin separately and exchanged some pleasantries. They then led Du Qi and the others to rest.
"This is the Du Palace. It was built specifically for young master. I live here with my family and take care of the palace on behalf of young master. The other deacons are the same."
Du Qi said that he had worked hard. After asking around about the situation in Chaostic Essence Sect, he told Yuwen Qianmo not to look for his family members. He wanted Yuwen Qianmo to rest while he prepared to treat his injuries and remove the poison for free.
Yuwen Qianmo had wanted to have a long talk with Du Qi throughout the night. He had heard that Du Qi was going to remove the poison for Wuyou. He had no choice but to give up. Just as he was about to leave, a thought suddenly occurred to him. He smiled lightly and said, "That Gu Wentian fellow is so detestable. He actually planted people everywhere. Mr. Du can relax and treat the Dao Elder's injuries and remove the poison. Leave these small matters to me to deal with."
Du Qi's divine sense moved, and he also discovered that there was actually another person in the Du Palace. It didn't need to be thought to know that it was Gu Wentian's lackeys. Since there were Gu Wentian's people in the palace... He guessed that there were people from other places as well. Du Qi couldn't help but feel angry. However, he said with a smile, "Since Sir has such an elegant character, you should cripple all of them. Otherwise, they will cause trouble again. "
