Chapter 463

In addition to the pressure from Liyue Port, what prompted Shi Quan to move quickly was that he felt a breath from the layered rock abyss.

——This breath belongs to the ancestors of the alchemist family, and it has been at least a hundred years old.

As an alchemist who practiced the method of spirit, Shi Quan knew very well that if he practiced this method to a certain stage, it would be enough to protect his own spirit.Coupled with the strange and strange environment of the stratum rock abyss, many things that ordinary people can't imagine may appear in that place.

Even if the aura that appeared in the layered rock abyss is just a wisp of remnant soul, it is enough to bring hope of change to the current alchemist family.

because
The inheritance of the current alchemist clan has long since been scattered.

Why did the dignified millennium family decline?And it will decline rapidly within a hundred years?
The reason is simple: a considerable part of the lineage has been broken.

Shi Quan did not hesitate to gamble his own reputation and life. A big factor was that he wanted to find the source of the breath.He was convinced that that aura was only possessed by the ancestors of the alchemist family, so as long as he was found, he would be able to recover part of the inheritance.

—He thought he was the only one who knew about it.

Therefore, he regards this matter as a mission; therefore, he will carry out all these without hesitation.

Even if he fails now, he doesn't have much regret in his heart, because he firmly believes that this is his duty.

Until just now, Chongyun asked this question.

【A few days ago, I felt a strange aura, which gave me the same feeling as the old Patriarch, but it was different. 】

That's right, this is also how Shi Quan felt when he sensed that breath.

[Layered Rock Abyss?That's right. 】

Yes, even the location is the same.

"What a stupid thing I did!"

After thinking about it, Shi Quan's expression was extremely complicated, with remorse, helplessness, and a hint of loneliness.

Why lonely?
Shi Quan understood the answer to this question very well.

Because Chongyun is not from the Shi family, if even he can sense that aura and lock its location, then it means that the owner of this aura is not a descendant of the Shi family.

There is no doubt that the owner of the breath is a powerful alchemist, and he has extremely impressive strength.

——But he is not from the Shi family, which means that he may not have the inheritance that Shi Quan has been chasing.

It's really a trick.
"Uncle Quan?"

Seeing that Shi Quan's aura languished a lot in an instant, Chong Yun frowned. Is this aura very important?
To be honest, he just felt puzzled at the beginning, and didn't go into details, otherwise he wouldn't have come here to inquire after a few days.

"Heavy cloud."

Shi Quan raised his head, he seemed to be more than ten years old, he was clearly in his prime, but there was an unspeakable twilight.

His tone was very serious, and even gave people the illusion that he was explaining the funeral.
"The junior is here." Chong Yun hesitated for a moment, but still nodded.

"The aristocratic family wants too many things. It's so much that we can't afford it today."

Shi Quan glanced at his own God's Eye, then at Chongyun's God's Eye, sighed leisurely, and then said: "I am... a firm alchemist faction, you know that—maybe the whole Li Anyone who pays attention to these things in Yuegang knows this."

"So, do you know why I did this, Chongyun?"

Looking at the young alchemist in front of him, Shi Quan's expression gradually calmed down.

"."

Hearing this question, Chongyun thought about it carefully, then shook his head, and said: "From my understanding, you want to get rid of Liyue's official restrictions and return yourself to the original [Millennium Inheritance Family] status. "

Shi Quan listened quietly, without expressing any opinion.

"...But obviously, this is not rational enough." Chongyun continued, "Because before the Liyue official intervened in the family, the entire family of alchemists had already declined, and the boundaries of the Shi family were shrinking every day. If you leave rashly With official funding, the aristocratic family will return to the original situation."

"Yeah." Shi Quan nodded slightly.

"Of course, there is also the most critical point, an extremely stupid thing you have done."

When mentioning this matter, even Chong Yun didn't have a good face.

And even if he didn't say anything, Shi Quan knew what it was, after all, it was the fuse that started everything.

There is only one answer, and that is [assassination incident].

Although few people knew Ning Zhe's identity at the time, even if there was no family relationship, Ning Zhe was an investigator appointed by Ning Guang himself.After all, they did it, and they did it in front of Zhongyun.

This matter was finally turned over with the sacrifice of the old owner Shi Bai, but everyone knew that this matter was not so easy to end.

What kind of person is the contemporary Tianquan star?

No one can deny her ability, and no one can underestimate her wrist. In terms of strength, the palace flying above everyone's heads is an excellent proof.

And in terms of employing people.
She is indeed a meritocracy, but after investigation, you can know that she doesn't mind small tricks, but if it touches her bottom line, it will usher in a devastating blow.

There is no doubt that Ningzhe is her bottom line.

".I won't go into details about the specific situation. I believe none of us are willing to bring up this past event."

Chongyun shook his head, then changed the topic, and said: "So I have never been able to understand the meaning of your actions. Expelling evil spirits in the name of the alchemist family is subjugating demons, and attacking monsters in the name of Liyue officials is also subjugating demons. How is it different?"

"."

These words seemed to cause a critical blow, and Shi Quanqian was immediately silenced.

After a long time, he exhaled slowly and said, "That's true."

"Ok?"

"In addition to the patriarch, the alchemist clan also has several respected clan elders sitting in the town. Shi Qi is the successor appointed by the old Patriarch Shi Bai, and he is also a person close to Liyue's officialdom. The clan elders should not accept it."

"In the eyes of many people, they have redeemed the law they committed by joining the Liyue official. Now that time has passed, the original predicament is gone, and they begin to miss the [freedom] and [glory] of the past. .”

"...these things are clear to me."

Shi Quan's tone was very flat, as if he was narrating a fact, basically without ups and downs.

"Since you know it, why?"

"Chongyun." Before Chongyun finished speaking, he was interrupted by Shi Quan, and then he continued: "Some things can't be escaped without being understood, understand?"

"." Chong Yun frowned slightly.

"Anyway." Shi Quan stood up suddenly and looked at Chongyun, "I'm going out for a while, do you want to stop me?"

out for a trip? !

As soon as this remark came out, Chongyun subconsciously glanced around.

This is the detention center, that's right!What does he mean by going out?Jailbreak?
"You know this is not in line with Li Yue's law." Chong Yun gritted his teeth and blocked the door.

He clearly remembered that there were still people guarding the door for him now, if he just let Shi Quan go out like this, it would be bad for everyone.

"No. You can leave."

At this moment, a slightly lazy voice came over.

thump—

The iron door opened from the outside, and then a young figure appeared.

He held a token that symbolized the identity of the Privy Council, and looked at Shi Quan indifferently.

"As Bai Yi's order, you can leave here temporarily, Shi Quan." He said, "By the way, I am Jiang Guo, and I am currently the Hui Yi of the Privy Council."

"."

Hearing this, Shi Quan's eyes flashed with surprise, but after a flash, he seemed to understand.

"Yes." He said softly, "I understand."

"It's best that way."

Jiang Guo nodded in satisfaction, and then set her sights on Chongyun.

"Let's go, Chongyun. The two of us have also been assigned tasks."

"it is good."

Chongyun agreed without hesitation.

——Because he knew who this so-called acting white robe was.
