Chapter 2041 - 2078: Second Elder!

The two white-robed disciples cautiously looked in the direction of the long-bearded Elder and carefully asked him:

"Second Elder, should we meet with the second-in-command?"

After hearing the words of the two white-robed disciples, the long-bearded Elder slowly furrowed his brows and slowly said to the two white-robed disciples:

"Yes, of course, we must meet. Regardless, Zhuge Qing is the second-in-command of our Skeleton Sect, this courtesy I must extend!"

After hearing the long-bearded Elder’s words, the two white-robed disciples slowly nodded toward him.

The long-bearded Elder’s eyes flickered slightly and he slowly said to the two white-robed disciples:

"Lead the way ahead, let me see what exactly Zhuge Qing wants to do!"

Upon hearing the Elder’s words, the two white-robed disciples nodded gratefully and began leading the long-bearded Elder forward.

In a short time, under the guidance of the two white-robed disciples, the long-bearded Elder slowly descended the mountain, passing through dense forests, and eventually saw a crowd of white-robed disciples ahead.

After seeing the scene, the long-bearded Elder’s eyes gleamed sharply as he appeared among the gathered white-robed disciples.

Ding Fan and Zhuge Qing sat cross-legged on the ground, appearing indifferent as they glanced around.

At that moment, Ding Fan’s eyes suddenly narrowed, and he raised his head sharply, staring intently behind the white-robed disciples. His gaze was tinged with a sharp intensity.

Beside him, Zhuge Qing, noticing this, was filled with surprise and asked Ding Fan hesitantly:

"Brother Ding, what happened?"

After hearing Zhuge Qing’s words, Ding Fan’s eyes flickered slightly, his mouth paused for a moment, and his voice came out:

"He’s here..."

Upon hearing Ding Fan’s words, Zhuge Qing’s eyes were filled with astonishment, and he fixed his eyes on the scene behind the white-robed disciples.

As Zhuge Qing’s gaze converged, the heads of the white-robed disciples shifted back and forth, and deep murmurs emerged from the crowd.

Upon seeing this, Ding Fan’s eyes filled with a sharp gaze, focusing intensely on the crowd of white-robed disciples.

From out of the crowd, a long-bearded Elder slowly emerged, with an extraordinarily strong aura radiating from his body.

When Zhuge Qing saw this Elder, his pupils contracted, and he coldly said:

"He has finally arrived..."

Ding Fan also slowly stood up from the ground, watching the approaching long-bearded Elder, his body instinctively tensed as Zhuge Qing’s lips curled up subtly, and he coldly remarked:

"Second Elder, it has been a long time!"

Upon hearing Zhuge Qing’s words, a surprised look flashed in the eyes of the long-bearded Elder, who fixated his gaze on Zhuge Qing.

After seeing Zhuge Qing, the long-bearded Elder’s eyes displayed a pondering expression, and Ding Fan calmly spoke:

"Second-in-command, long time no see!"

Hearing the words of the long-bearded Elder, the eyes of the white-robed disciples were filled with astonishment, and they discussed in shock:

"I didn’t expect that he truly is our Skeleton Sect’s second-in-command. I’ve been in the Skeleton Sect for such a long time and have never seen the second-in-command’s true appearance."

"So he’s our Skeleton Sect’s second-in-command, truly unexpected."

Upon hearing the Elder’s words, Zhuge Qing coldly said:

"Second Elder, you’ve finally arrived. I have been awaiting you for quite some time..."

After hearing Zhuge Qing, the corners of the long-bearded Elder’s mouth lifted slightly, and a faint voice emanated from his eyes:

"Second-in-command, I heard you have matters to discuss with me, what might those be?"

Hearing the Elder’s words, Zhuge Qing coldly replied:

"Second Elder, this matter is of great importance, we should discuss it elsewhere."

After hearing Zhuge Qing, the Elder’s eyes flickered slightly, and he nodded gently, saying to Zhuge Qing:

"Very well, since the second-in-command is here, it’s only right to extend some hospitality, this way please!"

Saying this, the Elder gestured courteously towards Zhuge Qing.

After hearing the Elder, Zhuge Qing’s eyes revealed a glimmer that slowly revolved.

Ding Fan stood slightly aside, walking alongside Zhuge Qing in the direction of the long-bearded Elder.

Seeing Ding Fan, the Elder showed signs of surprise, a faint voice emerging from his mouth:

"I have never seen this fellow brother before?"

After hearing the Elder’s words, Ding Fan paused his pace, fixating his eyes on the long-bearded Elder.

Upon hearing the Elder, Zhuge Qing’s eyes trembled slightly, his lips quivered, and he coldly said:

"This is a deputy by my side, is there any dissatisfaction with him accompanying us, Second Elder?"

After hearing Zhuge Qing, the Elder’s eyes flickered slightly, his lips quivered, and a faint voice emerged:

"Nothing in particular, just noticed this young fellow’s rather remarkable prowess..."

After hearing the words of the Elder, Ding Fan calmly replied:

"Second Elder, you overpraise me. I’m merely a deputy beside the second-in-command, nothing as impressive as you claim..."

After hearing Ding Fan, the Elder gently shook his head twice.

In the silence of the Elder, Zhuge Qing’s voice rang out:

"Second Elder, please!"

The Elder acknowledged Zhuge Qing with a gesture.

Before long, accompanied by Zhuge Qing, Ding Fan slowly ascended the peak, within mere moments entering the lavish hall on the summit. Observing the luxurious decor, Ding Fan’s eyes were filled with astonishment as he began to look around.

Gazing at Zhuge Qing, a faint voice came from the Elder:

"Second-in-command, what might be the purpose of seeking this old man?"

After hearing the Elder, Zhuge Qing’s eyes flickered slightly, his lips quivering as he spoke to the Elder:

"Second Elder, with so many eyes around, I believe..."

Hearing Zhuge Qing, the Elder’s eyes flickered slightly, and with a faint voice from his mouth, he said:

"Everyone leave, the second-in-command and I have matters to discuss!"
