Silence Valkyrie

Chapter 224
"I knew it……"

Nan Ruoli sighed, with a look of helplessness on his face.

"Master, don't worry, my fate is very hard, nothing will happen."

Zhang Shan assured her with a smile.

"Hmph, the apprentice accepted by others obeys the master's words, why did I accept you, a rebellious bastard?"

Nan Ruoli said angrily with a straight face.

Knowing that she was worried for herself, Zhang Shan was moved in his heart, and vowed that he would act carefully.

"Since you have made up your mind, follow me to see Hall Master Ji."

Nan Ruoli was sullen for a while, then turned his head and left.

Zhang Shan quickly followed.

The secret hall is not like other sect halls, it is directly under the control of the Elder's House, and even the head of the sect only has the right to suggest and not to dispatch.

The House of Elders is composed of the elders of the various peaks of the sect, and plays the role of supervising the head and coordinating the interests of the various peaks.

The Elder's House is managed by the Supreme Elder of the sect, but in essence, the Supreme Elder is the real helm of Wentianzong.

There are three grand elders in Wen Tianzong, two of them have been in seclusion for a long time, and only one will show up from time to time, most of them are the final decision-making concerning the life and death of the sect.

In fact, the secret hall is directly responsible to the Supreme Elder.

Following Nan Ruoli, Zhang Shan met Ji Feibai in a courtyard that occupied a large area but the building was no more than two stories high.

He was standing in front of a clump of gladiolus, as if admiring the newly bloomed flowers.

But Zhang Shan felt that he was more like thinking about some incomprehensible things.

"My apprentice agreed to join the secret hall, but I'm going to say something ugly, don't let him do something beyond his ability, otherwise, if something happens to him, I won't let it go."

Nan Ruoli stared at Ji Fei and said.

Ji Feibai smiled slightly: "Do you think that the reason I recruited sect disciples into this hall is to let them go to die?"

"Well, I brought him here. If you have anything to say, just tell him, and I'll leave first."

As she spoke, she instructed Zhang Shan: "If you feel that you can't complete the task Hall Master Ji told you, then don't agree. It's fine to choose another hall again."

Seeing her leaving figure, Ji Feibai smiled at Zhang Shan and said, "It seems that your master is afraid that I will send you to the fire pit."

After a pause, he continued, "However, she is really right."

Zhang Shan listened silently without interrupting.

"Have you ever been to Yujing City?" Ji Feibai asked.

"No, I stayed in Qingyang City before I came to ask Tianzong."

Zhang Shan replied, but he was thinking in his heart that it was indeed the task of Yujing City as the master said.

"The mission this time is about Yujing City. The secret hall branch we set up in Yujing City has now been completely destroyed, and the leader of the branch has also disappeared. However, the natal spirit card he left in the Palace of Fate is still intact."

"Therefore, it is very likely that he has been captured by the opponent, and the opponent may want to find out the secret of our secret hall from him."

Ji Feibai continued.

"Then, does the hall master have anything to suspect?"

"No, this time it happened very suddenly, without any warning beforehand, so there are various possibilities so far. I think it may not be our old opponent, but maybe a new enemy."

Ji Feibai said slowly: "And if Commander Shi is really captured, it's hard to say whether he can keep the secret hall's intelligence network. After all, there are many ways to let people reveal their secrets, such as soul searching."

"So when I found out about the accident in Yujing City at the first time, I ordered all the hidden guards in the secret hall that were not damaged to evacuate there."

"Of course, we must investigate this matter clearly, so I hope to use a disciple who has not entered the secret hall before to do this matter."

Ji Feibai looked at Zhang Shan: "After getting to know the disciples of the sect these days, I think you are the best choice in terms of combat power, mind, and response to the enemy, and you have not joined the secret hall before, so you are the best choice." Good candidate."

"Two months later, it will be the birthday of the little princess of the Heavenly Holy Emperor. Each sect, big and small, will send envoys to send congratulatory gifts. This is your public identity."

The Holy Emperor of the Heavenly Heaven Dynasty is a great power in the Martial Saint Realm. When the sects celebrate his birthday, they will send elders of the sects to celebrate his birthday. Zhang Shan also knows about this from the annals.

"On the birthday of the Holy Emperor, it is customary for all sects to give gifts, but a royal princess wants us to ask Tianzong to give gifts?"

Zhang Shan was puzzled, and asked what was in his heart.

"This princess is not a simple character, she is very talented, and she will definitely be promoted to Martial Saint before the age of 30, so it cannot be judged by common sense."

Ji Fei said with a strange light in his white eyes.

"Is it certain to advance to Martial Saint? Or before the age of 30?"

Zhang Shan thinks it's a bit absurd. With outstanding talent, it's not surprising to be promoted to Martial Saint, but it doesn't make sense to be promoted before the age of 30.

The path of martial arts, is there an absolute thing?

"At the age of 30, there is room for the outside world to speak. In fact, I think she will become a martial artist before the age of 25."

Ji Feibai said with certainty: "If she is willing to sleep more, it should be faster."

"Sleep? What does this have to do with promotion?"

Now Zhang Shan began to feel that Ji Feibai had something wrong with his mind.

"I'm not talking nonsense. She has the Canglong Sacred Vein, so she basically doesn't need to practice. She only needs to sleep from time to time to advance."

Ji Feibai sighed and said: "So, even if this kind of evildoer is just a little girl at the Spiritual Martial Realm, the major sects still have to show something."

As he said that, he threw a jade slip to Zhang Shan: "It contains her detailed information and an introduction about the Canglong Sacred Vein. You can read it when you go back. Now let's talk about your mission."

"For the sake of secrecy this time, you are the only one acting alone, without the support of your fellow sects. Everything depends on you. By the way, your job is to lead."

Ji Feibai continued: "However, your task is just to investigate, not to go find those people desperately, you just need to find out the truth of the matter as much as possible, at least find useful clues, and then we will gather good opponents according to the intelligence. It kills."

"I understand. As a bare-bones commander, you should investigate as soon as you can, and you can't be dragged down!"

Zhang Shan concluded.

Ji Fei was stunned for a moment, and then smiled wryly: "You can interpret it whatever you want, anyway, I hope you can give me a surprise."

Pass him another jade slip: "This is the detailed information of Commander Shi and the same sect of the sacrifice. After reading it, you can destroy it."

"Then, starting from tomorrow, you can come to me. Behind it is the secret cabinet of my secret hall. You can go inside and have a look. There are all kinds of information about spies, killers, concealment, disguise, etc. Learn it as soon as possible."
