"Elder Yuan, has the Great Elder not woken up yet?" asked an elder who was standing nearby.

"Yes! It's been more than a day since the expected time, but why haven't you woken up yet?" Elder Yuan was a little worried, because for elders like them, sleeping forever is a normal thing, but every time he wakes up, he wakes up. It was stipulated in advance, so they usually wake up on time, with a difference of one or two hours at most. But now the great elder has passed the stipulated time for more than a day. This is a very unusual thing, so let everyone present The elders were very uneasy. After all, things that have never been discovered are always difficult to deal with. There is no precedent to refer to or terms to follow.

"It seems that our secret party will definitely discover something. This is a sign." The elder looked at the big box in front of him with an uneasy look. This is a big box, enough to hold an adult of decent size. If it contained a dead person, people would call it a coffin, but now it only contains a sleeping person. I don’t know what to do with it. What to call it

"I hope it won't be a big deal. If something happens to the entire secret party. How should we explain to the great elder when he wakes up!" Elder Yuan was also worried. It’s no wonder. After all, before the great elder went to sleep, he handed over all affairs within the party to these two deputy elders. With great power comes great responsibility. In the past, when the great elder was awake, they served as deputy elders. They only had to deal with some small things within their duties, but they were not willing to do so. They had been thinking in their hearts that it would be great if they became great elders. But now that they were given the opportunity to experience what it was like to be great elders, they realized that they Not capable enough to fill this position.

"Elder Yuan, you asked me to find Elder Sinmo. He is outside the temple now." At this moment, a voice came from outside the temple door.

"Sinmo, come in." Elder Yuan shouted. Sinmo was cultivated by Elder Yuan. To Elder Yuan, he is like a junior, a capable junior.

"Yes." To Sinmo, he is more like an elder, an elder worthy of respect. Sinmo opened the door and walked into the main hall. Speaking of this main hall, it was extraordinary. It is the holy place of the entire secret party. Only those with the rank of deputy elder or above are eligible to enter. Now the elder Yuan asked Sinmo to come in. He obviously plans to promote Sinmo to the position of deputy elder to make up for the fact that there is still a deputy elder. lack.

"Elder Yuan called me here. Do you have anything to tell me?" Sinmo asked respectfully.

"I heard that there is a very unusual girl by your side now?" Elder Yuan asked.

"Yes, her name is Lin Jing. Her real name is Luvian." Sinmo replied seriously. In fact, he had already expected that the deputy elders and others would mention Jing'er, so he was not at a loss as to what happened.

"Where is she now?" Elder Xu next to Elder Yuan asked.

"She is at my home now." Sinmo replied succinctly.

"Could she be just that kind of devil who hunts down members of our secret party?" Elder Yuan asked while thinking.

"I don't think it's possible." Sinmo replied seriously.

"Why is it impossible? I heard that she is very powerful." Elder Xu and Elder Yuan asked alternately.

"There are two reasons. The first reason is because it is powerful." Sinmo spoke the truth in his heart, without any lies.

"Is this what you say?" The two elders were puzzled.

"She can suck the blood of the shop owner, which shows that she is very powerful. She is so powerful that she does not need to put in so much effort to hunt down our members one by one. If she wants to target our entire secret party, she will come directly to us to destroy her. It may be faster and simpler for all of us." Whenever Sinmo talks about Jing'er, he can't help but feel proud, as if Jing'er is really his daughter.

"Elder Sinmo, have you gone too far? A little girl in her teens can really have such a powerful power." Elder Xu obviously refused to believe it.

"I can't say it at all. Although she looks very young, maybe she doesn't live for hundreds or thousands of years like us, but when she sucked the blood of the shop owner, I was right next to her, and this made me happy. The shop owner was very surprised. Because everyone knows that you can only suck the blood of your own race if you are much stronger than your own race, otherwise you will die miserably. So she is really powerful, at least more powerful than the shop owner. Her power has always made I find it a bit strange. However, one thing I am sure of is that she will definitely not be the hunter." Sinmo still made it clear.

"The second one?" Elder Xu asked impatiently.

"The second one is: in the past few days, the hunter is still hunting our members, but it is impossible for Jing'er to do it. For some reason, she is in a coma now, so I I kept guarding her every step of the way, and she hadn't woken up until I left home just now." Sinmo said the second reason. Speaking of Jing'er's coma, he was still very worried. Since Jing'er passed out in the bedroom at No. 105 Sanxiang Street that day, she has not woken up. He originally thought that she was just too tired and needed a good rest before she would wake up. When Sinmo came, he never expected that Jing'er would stay awake like this, as if he had fallen asleep.

"Since you said so, we absolutely believe it. As long as she is not the killer, there is no need for us to target her. It's just that the Great Elder hasn't woken up yet, and the killer is so powerful and has killed many of our members. Now I don’t know when I will come here directly to cause trouble. We have never encountered this kind of situation in history, and we don’t know how to deal with it at the moment, so I came to you to come up with countermeasures." Elder Yuan always said when talking. He has the calmness of an elder.

"If she really comes to us, then it will be a good thing, so we don't have to look for a needle in a haystack." Sinmo now spoke as if he was confident.

"But we don't know how powerful she is now. If she is stronger than us, then the secret party will be in trouble." Although Elder Xu was already a little afraid of the killer, his role as an elder for so many years has not been in vain. The manner in which he spoke did not drop at all.

"I know." Sinmo said seriously.

"You know?" Elder Yuan was a little skeptical, but he didn't dare to deny Sinmo's words. After all, Sinmo was much better informed than them in the outside world, otherwise Nian Ji would not have reached the position of trainee elder at such a young age. His prestige now is almost that of a deputy elder.

"Yes, I'm sure that it is absolutely impossible for her to attack us elders." Sinmo has thought about this for a long time, and after careful analysis, he already knew it.

"Why are you so sure?" Elder Xu asked again.

"Because she was sent by the devil to die. If she is very strong, as strong as the Great Elder, then how could she be willing to succumb to others and be a pawn who charges to death? So she cannot be stronger than the Great Elder, but In fact, she is really strong, and a trainee elder has already been killed, but wasn't she also injured in that hunting? So I think, maybe she is not weaker than the deputy elder of our secret party, But if she comes here, she will face all the elders, two deputy elders, and ten apprentice elders. She cannot be that powerful, powerful enough to kill all our elders together." What sinmo said is clear and reasonable.

"No, you are wrong. We now have three deputy elders and nine trainee elders." Elder Yuan said happily looking at the child who was lifting him up with one hand. (To be continued)
