"Based on the identity of the Nine Heaven Phoenix, senior shouldn't have much interaction with the Holy Martial Family. The reason why the Holy Martial Family is protecting such a place is probably because they have something they can use against the Holy Martial Family. ... Senior, why don't you tell me? Perhaps I can help you." Chu Tian said.
When he saw the hesitation on the Nine Heaven Phoenix's face, he had already guessed that the latter was tempted. However, there was still a trace of estrangement between them, so he guessed that it was because of the Holy Martial Family.
A powerful Demon Beast like the Nine Heaven Phoenix would definitely not be subservient to others. It was the nature of the Demon Beast to be free and unfettered. However, Kong Ling had been staying in this desolate mountain all year round. If it was not for some reason, the other party would not be like this.
If Chu Tian had said such words at the beginning, Kong Ling would have laughed it off. But now that she knew that there was an expert behind Chu Tian, she became serious.
"As you said, the ancestor of Holy Martial Family has helped me in the past. That's why I have promised to protect the Holy Martial Family." Kong Ling said.
"I'm afraid there is some other reason behind this." Chu Tian narrowed his eyes and said.
"You are very smart. Indeed, my Inner Core is imprisoned in this desolate mountain. Therefore, I am unable to leave this desolate mountain and am restricted by the Holy Martial Family." Kong Ling said.
Chu Tian gave Kong Ling a deep look. If that was the case... The latter's verbal promise had no credibility at all. If the inner core was controlled by the Holy Martial Family... It meant that Kong Ling could only listen to the orders of the Holy Martial Family. She wanted the latter to betray the Holy Martial Family. It was as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
"Is there anyone in the Holy Martial Family who can threaten senior like this?" Chu Tian thought for a while and said.
"Hmph, of course not. The lifespan of my Demon Beast is not something that the Human Cultivator can compare with. The ancestor of the Holy Martial Family has already died, and only a few juniors are left behind." Kong Ling said with a cold smile.
Chu Tian nodded. It was no wonder that he was on top of the desolate mountain. Even though Kong Ling's inner core was in the palm of someone else's hand, she still dared to be so arrogant. If the inner core was taken back, no one in the Holy Martial Family would be a match for her.
The reason why the Holy Martial Family did not dare to offend Kong Ling was because of her help. The Demon Beast in this desolate mountain obeyed Kong Ling's orders, and the reason why the Holy Martial Family wasn't disturbed by external enemies was because of this. The Demon Beast in this desolate mountain was the key point.
"If my condition is to help Senior retrieve the inner core, I wonder if Senior Kong Ling is willing to agree to my previous request." Chu Tian stared at Kong Ling with a sharp gaze and said. What he wanted now was a promise from Kong Ling.
When Kong Ling saw Chu Tian's gaze, she was slightly startled and immediately laughed loudly.
"If you succeed, don't say that you have accepted me as your master for ten years. Even if it is a hundred years, I will still recognize you, but you must have seen the little guy just now. Even though the Holy Martial Family is no longer as strong as it was in the past, those people are still much stronger than you. If you want to help me retrieve my inner core, it won't be an easy task. " Kong Ling said with a smile.
"As long as senior is willing to keep his promise, then leave the rest of the matters to me." Chu Tian said with a smile.
"I can swear on the Nine Heaven Phoenix clan. If what you said just now is true, then I, Kong Ling, am willing to serve you for a hundred years. If I violate this oath, my soul will be destroyed forever." Kong Ling said.
After obtaining Kong Ling's promise, Chu Tian was quite satisfied. The strength of the Holy Martial Family had indeed exceeded his expectations. He could only borrow Kong Ling's strength for today's plan.
"Then does senior know the exact location of the inner core?" Chu Tian asked.
"There is a dark hall inside this desolate mountain. My Inner Core is in that hall. However, that place is heavily guarded, and there are powerful restrictions placed on it. Therefore, I am unable to enter the Inner Core. If you want to help me retrieve the Inner Core, I'm afraid I need to be extra careful. " Kong Ling spoke. She did not try to discourage Chu Tian by saying that the latter was impossible to succeed.
However, this was already enough for Chu Tian. He naturally knew how dangerous the Desolate Mountain Holy Martial Family was, but taking out the inner core was the most crucial step.
"Then I promise that I will retrieve senior Kong Ling's inner core, but at that time, I will be hunted down by the Holy Martial Family. At that time..."
"As long as the inner core returns, the fate between me and the Holy Martial Family will come to an end. At that time, I will do my best to help you."
Kong Ling accepted Chu Tian's words. It was already enough for Chu Tian that the latter could be so straightforward.
After that, Chu Tian said goodbye to Kong Ling, and then went back into the desolate mountain by himself. Currently, in the forest that no one noticed, Chu Tian's Snake Ring was shining brightly.
"I never thought that I would meet the Forsaken Clan of the Nine Heaven Phoenix. This is really good news for you." Jie Zimo's voice was heard.
"What you said to me just now shouldn't be a lie. This isn't a joke. If something goes wrong, I'm afraid I will fall into it." Chu Tian replied with a bitter smile.
The reason why he dared to agree to these things so easily was because of what Jie Zimo had told him just now. The latter had a way to conceal his Qi and prevent others from detecting it.
Chu Tian also understood that Jie Zimo's current strength was above his. Perhaps the people in the future would know about such a special secret technique because they believed in Jie Zimo. Therefore, Chu Tian replied confidently.
But now that he was really going to enter the tiger cave, he couldn't help but confirm it.
"I never thought that you would have a time to be afraid as well." Jie Zimo couldn't help but tease him.
"That's because I don't trust you. This time, it won't do you any good. Why are you helping me? Tell me the truth. " Chu Tian said.
"Sometimes, when I'm merciful, you still doubt me. It makes me sad." Jie Zimo said.
"If I believe you, I'm afraid that I won't know where I will die now." Chu Tian said coldly.
"Of course there are benefits, but it's useless to say these things to you now. Now, you just have to believe what I said. Don't you want to save your little lover? Is there any other choice? "Jie Zimo asked.
Chu Tian fell silent. After learning about the powerful existences of Holy Martial Family, he understood that he was no match for them. Now, he could only rely on Kong Ling.
While they were talking, Chu Tian had once again arrived at the foot of the mountain. Currently, he could sense a lot of powerful Qi here. Currently, all the major powers were still gathered here, receiving the hospitality of Holy Martial Family. The ceremony was scheduled to be held three days later.
"I have arrived. It's up to you now." Chu Tian said.
"I will let you see what it means to be like a man without a home." Jie Zimo said.
After that, a Black Fog spread out from the Snake Ring. After that, Chu Tian's body was completely wrapped in the Black Fog. Chu Tian took a look at the Black Fog that was covering him, but he didn't feel any changes.
"Alright, you can go out and take a look now. As long as you don't release your Qi deliberately, no one will be able to discover you with my help." Jie Zimo said.
Chu Tian was skeptical. Then, he followed Jie Zimo out of the forest and headed towards Holy Martial Family.
Currently, he had already been exposed to everyone, but no one had noticed his presence. Everyone was busy with their own matters, even some disciples of the Holy Martial Family were walking past Chu Tian. None of them had noticed Chu Tian, who was right in front of them.
Jie Zimo's means was indeed brilliant. If this was the case, his chances of infiltrating the Holy Martial Family would be much higher. As long as he didn't deliberately touch anyone, no one would notice him.
