The end of the world begins with failing an exam.

Chapter 401 The Black Star Hangs High in the Extreme North
Thinking of the relationship between the temple and Qiao Youning, Chen Jing actually felt a little headache.

Because the monastery is far less annoying to him than [Moonlight Priory].

What's more, the monastery had nothing to say about Qiao Youning's treatment, and almost confessed to this silly girl who had been in the watch world for more than ten or twenty years.

It can be said that the monastery has not caused her to suffer the slightest grievance so far. Of course, there is also a big reason for this, which comes from Qiao Youning's special physique.

She carries the hope of the entire temple rising again, and it is also an opportunity for the Buddha Mother to return to the world, so the attitude of the temple towards her is beyond Chen Jing's imagination.

Once, Chen Jing also asked "him" in his mind in private.

Will the temple hurt Qiao Youning?

Just like Jiang Jingzhe, using her as a medium or a part of the ritual, so that the Buddha mother can come back to the world and so on...

And "he" answered in the affirmative.

"The monastery will not harm her, it will only protect her, including the Buddha's mother. The only one who can kill Qiao Youning is herself."

Closer to home.

After hearing Kui Nan ask which side you were on in the fight, Qiao Youning was obviously stunned for a moment, as if she didn't expect to face this difficult problem suddenly.

"The monastery is kind to me, and those elders are very kind to me, better than my biological parents, but... I will not let Ah Jing be wronged."

With that said, Qiao Youning sighed helplessly.

"If you really want to fight, then I will stand in the middle and persuade you if you can. If you can't persuade, I will help you hold the people in the monastery and let you run away."

"What's your monastery's attitude towards the resuscitators from deep space?" Yan Que asked abruptly.

"No hostility." Qiao Youning shook her head with a sincere tone, "A Jing is my only friend, so I am very concerned about this matter, you can trust me, if the temple is hostile to A Jing, I would have already Told him."

Hearing this, Kui Nan and Yan Que looked at each other for a while, neither said they believed it, but neither said they believed it, because they had known Qiao Youning for a short time, and some things could not be seen casually.

Until Chen Jing spoke.

"Don't ask nonsense." Chen Jing's tone was the same as usual, as if he was still a little helpless about the topic they were talking about, "You Ning is my good friend, she can't betray me, if one day, the monks in the monastery Like those alchemists in the Hanging City, they plan to kill me... let's talk about it later."

The voice fell.

Chen Jing sensed that those auras were rapidly approaching him.

And just as he was about to look for those auras, at the place where Yukong Mountain was blown into a big hole by Kui Nan and the others... on the edge of the burrow, several strange figures were already standing there.

The people who come are monks.

A total of six people.

The five monks standing at the back were all wearing black monk robes of the same style and hollowed-out masks made of gold. Only the old man standing at the front was dressed in a "simple" attire.

The simple white robes are spotless.

The beard and hair are all white, with kind eyebrows and kind eyes.

It has the temperament of an eminent monk.

The long stick in his hand was made of ivy, and nine golden wind chimes were hung on the front, back, left, and right sides.

When Chen Jing saw him, the old man also looked up at Chen Jing, with no trace of hostility on his face.

"Grow... grow old??" When Qiao Youning saw the old man, a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes, "The temple will send the elders directly?!"

"You know him?" Kui Nan asked.

"Well, he is one of the nine elders of our monastery. His real name is 'Life is Immortal'. People in our monastery call him Changzhang..." Qiao Youning explained in a low voice.

"Immortal?" Yan Que frowned, and couldn't help complaining, "Why do the elders of your monastery have such weird names?"

"Is he strong?" Kui Nan asked the most curious question.

"powerful."

This time it wasn't Qiao Youning who explained to her, but Chen Jing took the initiative to speak. It seemed that he had already judged the general strength of the old man from the result of the breath feedback.

"He should be around Sequence 6, only one level weaker than the Pope of the Priory Order, not as good as the old man, but it's not something we can deal with casually..."

As soon as the words fell, Chen Jing also laughed.

Because he found that although the people who came here are powerful, they are still not enough to keep him. Even if the old man who is the leader has the strength of the bishop of the monastery, it is impossible to keep everyone in this Yukong Mountain...

"Young Ning?"

At this time, the old man had already seen the familiar face through the golden mist. Although he had heard from the monks at the foot of the mountain before coming, there were some strange faces beside the Holy Maiden, and the Holy Maiden said they were her friends. ...

Yes.

friend.

So this "life body" that exudes the breath of deep air and has no human form is You Ning's friend?
"Growing old..." Qiao Youning replied weakly, only fearing that the situation would develop in the worst direction.

"Are they all your friends?" The old man made a final confirmation.

"Yes! They are all my friends!" Qiao Youning said hastily, fearing that the elder would misunderstand, "Don't worry about Chang Chang! I'm not in danger! It's safe to be with them!"

"Then you guys come down first."

The old man with white hair and childlike face smiled, his eyes were kind and he spoke softly.

"Let these friends of yours come down...don't worry, I have no hostility towards them, especially this little guy."

Chang Chang seems to be able to see what Qiao Youning is worried about, so the way of speaking is extremely frank, quite straight to the point.

And right now.

Chen Jing suddenly spoke up.

Since he is now dehumanized, when he speaks loudly, his voice is always a bit like a depressing rolling thunder.

"Chang Lao, you'd better take people out of this area first, otherwise you may be in danger."

Chen Jing originally thought that he would have to spend more time to get them to leave, and he was even mentally prepared to cause trouble because of his words. After all, his words sounded like a threat to outsiders, and "grow old" The status is detached, and it is inevitable for the monks in the monastery to feel uncomfortable...

But it turns out that monastery folks aren't that stupid.

Especially growing old.

After making sure that Qiao Youning was safe and sound, he also felt relieved, and nodded in agreement when he heard Chen Jing's advice. Before the monks behind him could speak, he turned around and walked down the mountain with everyone.

At this very moment.

The space collapse in the underground cave has begun.

Accompanied by the sound of the dimensional space being torn apart, a black light beam as thick as a water tank broke through the ground, shooting straight into the sky like an energy cannon spewed by some old creatures.

next second.

The beam disperses.

In the cloudless sky.

A black star with a diameter of a thousand meters appeared.

"That's... the black star in the old deep space..."
