Star Sea Lord

"Your Excellency, Patriarch, as early as a few hours ago, the news of the start of the operation has been sent over there! And our observers also saw with their own eyes that they had indeed sneaked into the Temple of the Stars! I know now! What is going on in the temple, you may have to wait until dawn to find out the truth!" The steward lowered his head and replied in a trembling voice.

"That being said, it's been such a long time!" Su Yuanding said a little anxiously,

"Even if the mission is not completed, even if they were injured and repelled, there should be some news coming back by now, right?"

A staff member thought about it for a while, and said boldly: "Your Excellency, Patriarch, since this is the case, will something... happen to them?"

Su Yuanding's eyes were fixed, and he asked in disbelief:

"An accident happened? What do you mean? A total of five Nirvana masters are all proficient in assassination and sneak attacks. Such a lineup is enough to kill peerless powerhouses at the star creation level! That bitch is just a Nirvana In the star realm, let alone Xiao Junling, no matter how tight the guards are, they might not be able to survive?"

The staff hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice: "But the Jixing Temple is the place with the most high-ranking powerhouses in the empire after all. God knows how many powerful beings hide in it to cultivate? As a great sage, secretly assign some powerful people to protect her students , is not a problem at all!"

"Even if this is the case, news must come back!" Su Yuanding already had an extremely ominous premonition in his heart, but before he got the exact news, he still couldn't accept that terrible guess!

at this time.Su Muchen's face sank like water, and he hurried in. [

"Did you find anything?" Seeing his son, Su Yuanding was refreshed and asked quickly.

Su Muchen didn't answer.First, he told those staff members: "You all go down! I will call you when something happens!"

As if they were pardoned, everyone immediately bowed and saluted, and then fled out of the room door.

"What's wrong?" Su Yuanding's face darkened, and the ominous premonition in his heart became stronger.

"In the news just sent by the Immortal Organization, only one of the five Nirvana-level powerhouses has returned, and he is seriously injured and his cultivation has been crippled! The whereabouts of the remaining four are unknown. Lan and Xiao Junling are safe and sound, the operation...failed!" the son said.Completely wipe out the last trace of luck in Su Yuanding's heart!It was dark.Almost fell to the floor!

"Father! Are you...are you alright!" Su Muchen supported him.asked in panic.

Su Yuanding only felt that his mind was buzzing, and a desperate voice kept wailing in his heart: It's over!It's all over!

Inviting the strong members of the Immortal Organization to take action has exhausted all the family's profit surplus this year.But I don't want to still fall short!

Now he can only start to think about how to deal with the aftermath!

Such a heavy loss, even if he is the head of the Su family, it is difficult to suppress all doubts from other high-level officials!Once they jointly launch an attack, I doubt it will be very troublesome!

The elders of the family are well aware of the grievances and grievances of the year!

He insisted on controlling Xichen Qinglan's actions, and there was not always a voice of approval within the family!Especially after successive failures caused heavy losses to the family!The voice of compromising with the Jixing Temple gradually became louder!

The meaning of the Presbyterian Church is very straightforward. Since tough measures are no longer feasible, the only option is to make concessions.Take a gentler approach to this matter!

If he can't settle this matter, then the family elders will start to consider using gentle means to eliminate the hostility of the Jixing Temple to the family as much as possible, no matter how much it costs!

Anyway, everything is based on the interests of the family! [

At that time, maybe he, the patriarch, will be sacrificed as a scapegoat!

"They...shouldn't know the news yet, right?" After a long while, Su Yuanding finally regained some energy and asked in a hoarse voice.

He was talking about the elders of the family, as well as some powerful figures within the family who were at odds with him.

"Father, they don't know yet!" Su Muchen said in a low voice, "Our people have blocked the news in time, and we can guarantee that there will be no rumors reaching their ears for at least a month!"

Su Yuanding shook his head: "That's not necessarily true! It's hard to guarantee that there won't be their spies among our people! So, you go and make arrangements to deal with all the people who know about this plan, even those who only participated in some operations... !"

Su Muchen's heart trembled slightly. This simple sentence from the Patriarch meant that thousands of heads fell to the ground!Although the vast majority of them are only passively cooperating and participating, they don't know what top-secret mission they are carrying out!

However, he also understands that now is not the time to be soft-hearted. Once his father's enemies know about this failed plan that caused heavy losses to the family, his father's position may be in jeopardy!

"Okay, I'll arrange for someone to do it right away!" He whispered.

Jixing Temple.

"...This kind of parasitic life can bring such great benefits to human beings, so there must be side effects, right?" Xiao Junling asked.

"Of course, there will never be a free lunch in this world!" Qin Yayu said,

"Any human being parasitized by this kind of thing will have a certain impact on their physical condition and even their thinking. Over time, even their genetic chromosomes will slowly change. People who are not determined will gradually become puppets controlled by them. ! And it will affect the next generation! Strictly speaking, this kind of person can no longer be called a pure human being, but can only be regarded as a symbiotic life form similar to human beings!"

"And, their growth and evolution also require a lot of resources to support! Therefore, the individuals they choose to parasitize are all elites among humans!"

Xiao Junling frowned, and asked cautiously: "If that's the case, then why don't you disclose their existence, and then destroy them in a targeted manner?"

But as soon as he said this, he realized that he had thought things too simply.

No one can resist the temptation of immortality and power, even if it is only an illusory dream.Nearly a thousand years of youth.Enough to make the vast majority of human elites betray their principles and bottom line and throw themselves into the embrace of this organization!

The Abyss Dark Soul Devourer has been lurking in the human world for many years. I don't know how many senior members it has developed and how far it has penetrated.If we act rashly and "dealt" all the parasitic human elites, it may cause a lot of blood loss for the elites of the empire!Thus bringing a series of negative effects!

Therefore, even though the current high-level empire has learned of the existence of this mysterious organization, they dare not easily go to war!Just in case they are forced to go into desperation, do some reckless things!

"In the long run, although this kind of parasitic life is terrible, the harm will not be manifested immediately!" Qin Yayu explained,

"After all, they rely on the host to survive and evolve, so they will not actively harm humans. On the contrary, they will protect the interests of the host to a certain extent! This is also the main reason why the high-level officials did not choose to use strong measures to solve it immediately!"

According to her.The imperial security system is already beginning to take measures.Long-term secret monitoring is carried out on those human elites who have been confirmed to be parasitized; especially those who have mastered various power resources, basically they will not be given a chance to be promoted, and they will be transferred to idle.To prevent accidents from happening!

It's just because of the strength and mystery of this organization.Exactly how deep the secret has penetrated is an absolute secret of the empire, and I am afraid that only the existence of the Grand Consul level can know!

However, the weakness of this thing is also obvious, that is, as long as the host dies, the individuals of the Dark Luo Devourer who live in it will also die.

Moreover, they are the most vulnerable when they are parasitic, as long as the selected human individuals are determined enough, these guys will be helpless!

Therefore, when the Dark Luo Devourer chooses the host, they can only adopt the principle of absolute voluntariness, otherwise the fusion ceremony will not be successful at all!

"After you were promoted to the Meteor Realm, the pot of Bo Ruihong Star Orchid that my teacher asked you to take care of. It was prepared for these human individuals!" Qin Yayu said,

"Its juice is a deadly poison to the individuals of the Dark Lord Devourer! It can kill those things without harming the host! We have now preliminarily analyzed the composition of the juice, and it may not take long It can be mass-produced! At that time... the problem will be solved!"

"However, in order to cultivate this rare plant more, you have to spend more time in the future!"

Xiao Junling was really relieved, this little matter was nothing to him, as long as it could be solved effectively!

However, he felt that it was necessary to inform Yu Xiner of this matter, and then conduct a secret test on all his followers and mid-level officers to prevent the organization's spies from being mixed in!

Early the next morning, Xiao Junling secretly left the Ji Xing Temple with a team of guards accompanied by Lan Ya.

His goal is a remote star system hundreds of light years away from the star field of the imperial capital.

Inside this star system, there are more than ten solid planets of different sizes, the smallest diameter is only more than [-] kilometers, and the largest diameter is nearly [-] kilometers!Almost all planets are extremely barren, and there are no minerals worth mining in large quantities.Therefore, it has always been inaccessible, and there are only some small human astronomical observatories.

A large dark space fault spaceship appeared with clusters of colorful energy storms, without alarming any forces.Straight into the edge of the star system, on an inconspicuous asteroid!

The hull of the spaceship presents a beautiful shuttle shape, the whole body is dark and dimly lit.When approaching the planet, the electromagnetic shielding system on the ship was activated, and the space mirror camouflage system was activated, making all the nearby detectors become decorations!

The space fault spacecraft lowered its altitude in a relatively flat area on the surface of the asteroid.Since this planet has no atmosphere and is too far away from the star, the temperature is almost the same as that of outer space!

On the dark, icy ground, a huge crack with a length of several kilometers suddenly appeared!Like a huge mouth, it "swallowed" the spacecraft that had just landed in one gulp.Then the cracks closed quickly, and everything returned to silence, as if nothing had happened!
