"You bold and arrogant thief, how dare you act so presumptuously in my Alchemist Sect? Today is the day you will die!"
A sound like thunder came from the distance, and then a figure crossed the crowd and came in front of everyone, and with one punch he separated the people who were fighting fiercely.
"Elder Zhou!"
One of the disciples said with joy that the reinforcements from the Alchemist Sect had finally arrived, and now, these people would have to suffer a lot if they wanted to leave.
As soon as Zhou Tian, the leader, joined the battle, the situation turned in favor of the Alchemist Sect. The strength of a Heaven-level Grandmaster was no joke among this group of people. Not to mention the investigation team led by Zhou Tian. There were no less than nine Taoist priests with Grandmaster strength, and now six of them had come directly.
"Die!"
Zhou Tian gathered his Qi in his palm and attacked one of the men in front of him. However, he was stopped by a figure in a black robe. With a push and a pull of the black robe, Zhou Tian's might was turned into nothingness.
"Who is coming?"
Zhou Tian said these words, but his body did not stop moving. He kept launching the most fierce attack on the man in black who was blocking him.
But his opponent was no pushover either. Although Zhou Tian possessed the strength of a Heaven-level Intermediate Master, the black-robed man was also quite capable. His realm had reached the peak of an Earth-level Grandmaster. The two people fighting each other were indistinguishable from each other for a while. With similar strength and skills, it was really difficult to determine the winner.
In the room, after the roar of the five elders, the battle temporarily fell into a stalemate. At the beginning, the master and the disciple just stared at each other, and no one intended to speak in advance. No one took action, and no one spoke.
This formed a sharp contrast with the fierce fighting in the outside world. Finally, after a long silence, the five elders spoke first.
"Gao Yue, go ahead. I won't stop you this time. Let's just say that the friendship between us as master and disciple ends here."
"master?"
Before Gao Yue could even shout, he was interrupted by the five elders. He didn't want to say anything unnecessary now, and didn't even want to tell Gao Yue how much he loved this disciple in the beginning, and how heartbroken he was when he found out that he had betrayed him.
He had felt this feeling several times when his loved ones passed away, but now that he had become one of the seven elders of the Alchemist Sect, he had not experienced it for a long time.
How could Gao Yue not know these things? Although he joined the Alchemist Sect only because the organization had given him a task to complete, after so many years of getting along, it was impossible to say that there was no affection. Even ordinary flowers and plants could become a part of your life after so many years of hesitation.
Gao Yue could clearly feel in his heart the five elders' strong support for him. This feeling was very complicated, a bit like the relationship between master and disciple, but also like the bond between father and son.
However, his beliefs prompted him to complete the tasks assigned by the organization. Sometimes in the dead of night, Gao Yue would secretly stay in his room and think, if he had joined the Alchemist Sect earlier and met his current master in advance, would his future life trajectory be completely different
There is no regret medicine for sale in this world. Not everyone has something like the Nine Dragon King Seal like Long Xiangtian, who can start over and take another path.
"Don't call me Master anymore. Next time we meet, we will only be enemies. I will definitely not show you mercy then."
Since the five elders said so, Gao Yue did not act too pretentiously. He simply knelt down in front of the five elders, then supported himself with his hands and kowtowed three times on the ground. The force of each kowtow made his forehead bleed, and the piece of floor in front of him, where his forehead touched, was deeply sunken.
After Gao Yue stood up, he bowed deeply to the five elders again, and then stepped back. After leaving the room, he took out something similar to a flare from his arms, threw it hard into the sky, and instantly a brilliant firework shot out in the dark sky.
This thing is the signal of the Black Organization's full retreat from the Alchemist Sect. It is held by the two top leaders, Gao Yue and Zeng Shenhu.
All the people lurking inside the Danshi Sect, after seeing the retreat signal, immediately put down what they were doing and retreated to the designated location without thinking twice. This means that all the tasks in the Danshi Sect have been completed. There is no need to interact here again.
Of course, the people who were fighting fiercely below also noticed this situation. The black-robed man who was fighting fiercely with Zhou Tian turned around and was about to escape. However, when he just paid attention to the signal, he was at a disadvantage. Now when he turned his head, Zhou Tian caught the flaw. His hands turned into a pair of sharp claws and grabbed the black-robed man's face.
Although the man in black robe raised his head to avoid the fatal attack, Zhou Tian grabbed the black mask covering his face to conceal his true identity.
"Old Zeng?"
When Zhou Tian was fighting with the black-robed man just now, he felt that the various moves and methods used by the black-robed man were particularly familiar to him, as if he had seen them somewhere before. Now that the black-robed man's mask was taken off, the truth was revealed in an instant. Isn't this his former colleague at Kunmen
Zhou Tian and he had worked together on several missions before, and they were quite familiar with each other. It was really unexpected that he was also one of the undercover agents of the Men in Black organization.
"Haha, Lao Zhou, what a coincidence."
"you?"
Before Zhou Tian finished speaking, Zeng Shenhu took advantage of the opportunity. He gathered his true energy on his palm and pushed Zhou Tian hard. Zhou Tian was caught off guard and staggered. At the same time, the attack speed of his hand also slowed down.
This mistake allowed Zeng Shenhu to slip away. Even if Zhou Tian wanted to chase him, it was too late. A master at the peak of the Earth level was trying his best to escape. It would be difficult for Zhou Tian, a Heaven level master, to stop him. Moreover, the master was familiar with the terrain, so it was even more difficult for someone to chase him.
All Zhou Tian could do was to take advantage of the opportunity when his opponent left his back to the enemy, condense a bomb wave, and hit Zeng Shenhu's back directly. Although he couldn't stop it, he could still injure him seriously, which could be considered as regaining a little bit of ground.
If he had spared his energy for defense, Zeng Shenhu would not have been able to escape, but if he had concentrated on escaping without defending, he would have been inevitably seriously injured.
As for the other people from the alchemist's sect who were fighting with him, those who should have left had almost all left at this moment. The remaining few who did not have time to leave were detained by the Taoist priests on the spot. After realizing that they could not escape at all, many of them simply reversed their own skills and sutras, causing their bodies to break and die.
