The most proud person in the audience was Xuan Qingzhu, and the most disappointed person was Elder Shi Beihong.
In the entire Haoran Sect, the only person who knew that Xiang Ru was Xiang Nan was Elder Shi Beihong himself.
At this moment, Shi Beihong shook his head and sighed, "It seems that our Haoran Sect's power is over."
He originally thought that Xiang Nan would become the pillar of Haoranzong, but unexpectedly, in the end, Haoranzong paid so much, but still couldn't keep Xiang Nan.
"Since he chose to soar in a higher sky, I have no reason to blame him." Elder Shi Beihong seemed to have aged many years in an instant.
He just felt infinite misery in his heart, and he hated himself for not being able to retain talents.
But Xiang Nan in the private room felt very strange. The identity Xuan Qingzhu left for herself was to allow herself to break into the Haotian Empire, but now she released herself as a disciple of Tianxuanzong.
Doesn't this obliterate his identity as a spy
"It seems that she is determined to severely damage the Haoran School, even at the expense of exposing the function of Xiang Ru as a spy." Xiang Nan nodded.
Starting today, Xiang Ru will never be able to return to the Haotian Empire, but Xuan Qingzhu is willing to pay such a price in order to attack the Haoran Sect.
At this time, the door of the box was knocked, and a seemingly ordinary audience walked in, respectfully said: "Is this Mr. Xiang Ru? Elder Qingzhu has already made arrangements, please come with me."
Xiang Nan didn't know why, but he knew that since Xuan Qingzhu arranged for him to participate in the sect qualifying competition, he must have other plans.
There is no rush to follow him to have a look first, maybe there is still room for maneuver.
"Old Tu, wait for me here, don't go out casually." Xiang Nan greeted Tu Yun and followed the man.
After leaving the private room, he first glanced in the direction of Hao Ranzong guiltily, and then followed that person.
The strange thing is that the man didn't take Xiang Nan to stop in Wangxing City, but went directly out of Wangxing City and went in a more distant direction.
The two of them first arrived at Tianxuanzong, and then stepped on a secret teleportation array of Tianxuanzong, which directly sent the two of them to the seaside.
"What do you mean?" Xiang Nan frowned and said, "What are you bringing me to this barren land for?"
The man said respectfully: "I haven't been able to contact you in the past two months. There are some things in the sect that you don't know. Please come with me."
The man took Xiang Nan to the sea again, and the two of them flew for at least an hour in the vast sea before stopping on an isolated island.
There was also a teleportation array on the isolated island. The two of them went up and teleported to another place in an instant.
When Xiang Nan saw the surrounding environment clearly, he was surprised to find that he was already in the underwater world!
This is a huge building complex built in the underwater world. There is a transparent crystal dome above the teleportation array where Xiang Nan is standing. This must be the deep sea. The vast ocean is pure black, without the slightest light penetrating in.
Occasionally, one or two glowing deep-sea fish swim slowly around the dome.
"Please follow me closely." The man bowed to Xiang Nan, then walked quickly in one direction.
Xiang Nan followed him closely, looking at the surrounding environment all the way.
He discovered that this is a secret underground experiment base, the whole palace group is connected, one palace is connected with another palace.
In the wide corridors, there are Xuandao monks coming and going. These Xuandao monks are all wearing masks, each of them is silent, and they seldom talk to each other, just walking in a hurry.
From time to time, a few mobile stretchers would be rolled out from the corridor in the distance. On these stretchers were lying half-human, half-demon strange creatures.
The physical characteristics of these creatures are very unstable, and the muscles on their bodies are still wriggling strangely. Some of them died before they lived long.
Several staff members were watching and taking notes.
"Experiment No. 335, after surviving for 206 days, the combination failed and died."
Then the staff waved their hands, and someone pushed the dead strange creature to a huge furnace to incinerate the body.
Xiang Nan secretly observed with his lightning eyes. These dead experimental subjects were all human, but the human and monster characteristics in their bodies were not stable, and they were devouring each other, which eventually led to the complete collapse of their body structure.
Xiang Nan's heartbeat began to speed up. He knew that he had come to the secret base of Tianxuanzong, and there must be many shady activities here.
The man led Xiang Nan all the way, and finally came to a small palace. There were a lot of maids outside the gate of the palace. These maids were all carrying food and clothes, but they looked frightened.
It was as if they were terribly afraid of something in this little palace.
"That's it, please come in with me." The man led Xiang Nan through the palace gate and entered.
What came oncoming was a pungent and unpleasant smell of potion, mixed with the smell of various spiritual herbs, which made people feel dizzy.
And in this small palace, there are all kinds of strange utensils, even alchemy furnaces and refining furnaces.
The most striking thing is an old man and a tree in the palace.
From the first time Xiang Nan saw the old man, he understood why the maids outside the palace gate were so scared.
This old man is a lunatic character of Tianxuanzong, a great master of Xuan Dao, has extremely terrifying attainments of Xuan Dao, and is also of the crooked kind.
The green fire poison that made Xiang Nan feel extremely troublesome was made by this old guy himself.
"Senior, I've already brought it for you." The man said respectfully to the old man.
The old man glanced at Xiang Nan and said, "It's you? Go, get into the tree hole."
The old man pointed to the tree, which was very similar to the weird tree Xiang Nan saw in Qingshui Forest. The roots of this tree were like blood vessels, extending in all directions under the surface, and they were still moving slowly.
However, the appearance of that tree is a bit different. This tree also has a tree hole, and intricate blood vessel-like veins and roots grow in the tree hole.
But above the tree hole, there is another big bag, that thing is beating like a heart.
And on the wall next to it, there is a screen showing the situation of the sect's qualifying match in real time.
At this time, a huge turning point suddenly appeared at the scene of the Zongmen qualifying match, and the entire Wangxing City was shocked.
Xiang Nan only saw an ending. He found that half of the disciples of the six first-class sects had already announced on the spot that they would submit to Tianxuanzong!
"What's going on?" Xiang Nan was stunned for a moment.
Among the eight first-class sects, Tianxuanzong and Feiyunzong are going to challenge the other six, but out of the 599 disciples of the other six sects, more than 300 have already declared their allegiance to Tianxuanzong!
This incident caught many first-class sects by surprise, leaving no room for parry.
And that lunatic elder looked at the screen with a sinister smile, as if he had succeeded in a trick.
"This won't work!" An elder of Xinghaizong stood up and shouted sharply: "We have to re-select candidates! Our disciple suddenly joined Tianxuanzong, so it means that no one of us will participate in the competition!"
"Yes!" The elders of Hunyuanzong also stood up and shouted: "In this way, the number of participating disciples of Tianxuanzong has reached nearly 500."
Standing in the sky, Xuan Qingzhu said: "We respect the choice of any disciple. This is their own wish. Even as the elder of Tianxuanzong, I can't disqualify them from the competition because of this."
"Therefore, the competition must continue. If you think this is unfair, then I think you need to ask yourself why your disciple chose to leave the sect and join the Tianxuanzong."
"Our Tianxuanzong will not bear this kind of responsibility. You should bear it yourself."
