Chapter 116: Black Qiuqiu People
Tianqiu Valley.
When Ning Yu rushed here, the empty bottle in his arms did not move as he imagined, and the place did not show any abnormalities.
Until——Dadalia saw a group of Qiuqiu people covered in black mist.
The Qiuqiu people were biting a tiger, the flesh and blood were bloody, and broken bones and blood were scattered all over the ground.
Such a shocking scene...this is definitely not a normal thing.
The Qiuqiu people have their own tribe. Although they are not as intelligent as humans, they have the most basic spiritual intelligence.
After capturing prey, Qiuqiu people usually take it back to the tribe, cook it and distribute it to tribe members...
Eating food that can be called "cruel" like this is not common even among the Qiuqiu tribe.
"Ning Yu, do you take action or do I?"
While Ning Yu was frowning and analyzing in detail, Dadalia was excitedly gearing up, pointing the iron bow in his hand at the pile of people.
"..."
Hearing this, Ning Yu did not hesitate and shook his head gently, "If you want to take action, just go ahead."
"good..."
The next second, Dadalia rushed out, and with him came the water element arrows that seemed to be generated out of thin air around him.
Whoosh——
The slightly darker water element arrows headed towards the Qiuqiu people with a destructive momentum, directly penetrating the tiger's body, and then turned into water flow, binding the Qiuqiu people lying on the tiger's body.
Immediately afterwards, Dadalia suddenly appeared in front of the Qiuqiu people holding a water element spear, and stabbed with the spear. As the water flow opened, the Qiuqiu people quietly lost their lives.
"...If you're not a good opponent, just exercise your body."
Dispersing the water element spears casually, Dadalia shook his head helplessly. It was obvious that these Qiuqiu people with black mist did not satisfy his desire to fight.
"Do you feel anything? What on earth is that black mist?"
Ning Yu also walked over, and he found that the dead Qiuqiu man was no longer surrounded by black mist, and now he fell to the ground, just like an ordinary Qiuqiu man.
"Feel?"
Hearing this, Dadalia was stunned for a moment, then held his chin and said thoughtfully: "The moment my water element arrow touched the black mist, I felt a sense of obstruction."
"It's like...the black mist is repelling the elemental power."
Having said this, Dadalia waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "But unfortunately, these black mist are too weak and cannot stop my attack at all."
Repelling elemental forces?
Hearing this, Ning Yu suddenly remembered something.
When he was at Wangshu Inn, did the senior named Jiang Xue say... that the monster he met at the Ning family back then could also block elemental power?
and...
Ning Yu subconsciously touched the black gem in his arms and couldn't think clearly for a while.
The ability to isolate elemental power is really special.
At least in Ning Yu's nearly twenty years of life, apart from the monsters and gems of the Ning family, he had never heard of other things that could isolate elemental power.
"Um?"
Dadalia, who had put away his weapon, also noticed something unusual about Ning Yu, but he did not make it public and secretly wrote it down.
Ning Yu came to Tianqiu Valley after talking with the Privy Council [White], and then became very concerned about this black mist that can isolate the elemental power to a certain extent...
Therefore, that [White Clothes] also knew about the black mist, and... it is not possible to rule out the possibility that Ning Yu was sent to Tianqiu Valley by him to investigate this phenomenon.
"Although this black mist poses no threat to you and me, it is different for those poor advance teams."
Without thinking for a long time, Dadalia smiled and said helplessly: "In this case, the soldiers staying in Tianqiu Valley may have encountered something unexpected. I have to go back to Liyue Port. How about you?"
"I?"
Dadalia's words brought back Ning Yu's thoughts.
Tianqiu Valley didn't find any problems with the earth veins, so... that person [in white] probably didn't ask me to come here because of the earth veins. Could it be that he wanted me to witness this group of Qiuqiu people stained with black mist?
Although the thoughts in his heart continued to expand, on the surface, Ning Yu showed a helpless expression.
"After encountering this strange phenomenon, I have to go back to Liyue Port."
"Really? Well, let's go together."
Dadalia nodded very simply, then took the lead and walked towards Liyue Port.
"..."
Ning Yu always felt that Dadalia was hiding something, but he couldn't find any flaws.
This person is no longer the Ajax he knew. For an executive who fools everyone, no matter how cautious it is, it is necessary.
However, Ning Yu didn't hesitate for long and followed directly.
...
Privy Council.
After arriving at the real Privy Council, Ningzhe felt it was reasonable.
It is located in the southeast corner of Liyue. Although it is slightly remote, you can see Liyue Port from a distance. For intelligence agencies, this is an almost perfect location.
The whole courtyard also looks simple and elegant, especially the black and gray door. I don't know what kind of material it is made of, but it actually exerts spiritual hints on those who step into the door.
Of course, this method is still relatively unfamiliar and can only be effective on people who have not received special mental training.
However... According to Ningzhe's guess, the Privy Council only needs to prevent civilians from entering by mistake. Others who have the ability to resist the mental suggestion of the gate are also qualified to step into the Privy Council.
Inside the courtyard, there are three houses and a tall attic, which are antique and have an imperceptible subtle pressure.
Compared with the courtyard built by Yunfu before, this place can be called the "Privy Council".
"..."
At the moment when he was about to step into the door, Ningzhe hesitated for a moment and hid the [Hunyuan] in his body, using his mental power to block the breath of the brush.
If Yunfu didn't lie to him, then the person staying in the [Privy Council] at this moment must be another [White].
That guy... will definitely not be as friendly as Yunfu, so you'd better be careful.
After thinking about it, Ningzhe smiled and walked in directly.
"Boss Ning, may I ask why you came to the Privy Council this time?"
Almost as soon as he stepped into the courtyard, an invisible man dressed in black suddenly appeared and spoke to Ningzhe with a respectful expression.
"..."
This man in black suddenly appeared, which almost startled Ningzhe.
Strangely, with his mental probing, he didn't find anyone hiding in the yard?
"Ahem...it's nothing. I was entrusted by Lord Tianquan to come here to find Lord [White]."
With a slight "cough", Ningzhe spoke immediately without any hesitation.
"Lord Tianquan...want to find Lord Baiyi?"
The man in black was stunned for a moment, then hesitantly glanced at the pavilion.
"What, is there a problem?"
Ningzhe had a gentle smile and an unhurried tone, and seemed to be very confident.
"So...Boss Ning, does he have a token from Lord Tianquan?"
Seeing Ningzhe being so calm and confident, the man in black was a little uncertain for a moment.
"certainly."
Unexpectedly, Ningzhe nodded, and then took out a bright jade stone from his arms.
This jade exudes golden light, with the word "Ningguang" engraved on its surface.
"I see."
The moment he saw this thing, the man in black bowed slightly and said apologetically: "The Privy Council is of great importance, so I have to be more cautious..."
"It's okay, this is your responsibility."
Ningzhe waved his hands, his expression still gentle, looking like a humble gentleman.
"Thank you for your understanding. [White] Sir is on the top floor of the attic at the moment, so I won't disturb you."
After saying this, the man in black cast a spell and disappeared immediately.
"..."
Seeing the man in black leaving, Ningzhe calmly took back the jade, straightened his clothes, and then walked toward the attic.
When I just mentioned the word [Tianquan], there was an obvious mental fluctuation from the top floor of the attic...
