Only I Shall Be Immortal

    Ying (shadow) looked at Li Feng's eyes. From her understanding of this Mo Sect new Suzerain, he knew that he would never lie. Otherwise, he could not know his relationship with Hai Long. Nodded and said: "Good. I will answer you today. In the future, the saints will no longer invade Mo Sect. Nodded his head, and at the same time, please also ask him to take advantage. If you find a Mo Sect disciple in the outback of North Xinjiang, then my Saints will come again. ”Li Feng said: "Good. I Li Feng swear by the name of Mo SectSuzerain that from today on, in my lifetime, Mo Sect will not step into the inland step of North Xinjiang, otherwise it will be extinguished. ”

    Ying (shadow) took a deep look at Li Feng and shouted to the tribe: "We go."

    Please waitThe elderously embarrassed elders came out in crowds and frowned and said, "Wang, can you let these demons pass you? Have you forgotten everything about 10,000 years ago? ”

    Ying (shadow) looked coldly at the bad news and said: "I am the king of the holy people. I don't need you to teach me anything. For me, every life/living of the saints is important. I will not let them be sacrificed. I commanded and retreated in the name of the king of the saints. ”After he had finished flying, he never went back.

    Ying (shadow) has no place in the family, and no one can shake it. He snorts with bitterness and bitterness. This brings all the elite of the saints to follow her out of the demon.

    Li Feng looked at the background where the mutant disappeared. He whispered and murmured, "Elder brother! You helped the younger brother once again. Please bless my ability to succeed Tribulation Succession. I am really tired now and I really want to give up everything here. I am traveling with you. ”Li Wuxia is the person who knows Li Feng the most. She certainly knows what her husband is so deliberative about, and intimidated in his arms, said softly: “The Prime Celestial will come. Peak brother, we go back. The period of robbery is not far away, and we must do our best. ”

    Holy Family Underground City. All twelve elders gathered in the room of Ying (shadow). The atmosphere in the room was repressed. Except for Kong Lin's color, the eleven elders were full of anger and unwillingness. Ying (shadow) sat in his own position and looked at the face of the long-faced, long-looking people, indifferently said: "You all came to me. anything? ”

    With awkward words: "Under Saint King, I hope that you will give us an explanation and give an account to all the people of the Holy Family. Your behavior today makes us very disappointed. ”

    Ying (shadow) said indifferently: "I think today's elders must have seen Mo Sect Suzerain (should be Li Feng) say a few words to me. You come to me now. The main thing is to know what those words are. I can tell you that it is precisely because of the few words that changed my idea of ​​eliminating Mo Sect. The decision I made today is entirely for our sakes. Li Feng told me that he had an Elder brother. You, the Elder brother, all of you knew, and it was Hai Long Suzerain of Lianyunzong. Although Hai LongSuzerain has now soared into the sky. But his character, I think you all know if it hurt his brother. What kind of consequences will there be, I don't need to say more. At the same time, when I killed the Mo Sect master of Kudan Dan today, I have suffered minor shocks due to the factors. Everyone behind Li Feng has the same improvement as the Mo Sect master. They do have the ability to lose both of my saints. After more than 10,000 years of cultivation, we have today's prosperity. Do you still want the saints to experience another ten thousand years? Others I don't want to say anything more, if you still think that my decision today is wrong. In the name of the Presbyterian Church, the name of Saint King can be abolished. ”

    The twelve elders face each other. They never expected that they would be involved in Hai Long's body. Hai Long’s diabolical stick made them still fresh in their memory. The question is: Who would like to provoke that kind of master who is unfathomable? The embarrassed elder said: "Your Majesty, can you be sure that Li Feng really has a relationship with Hai Long Suzerain?"

    Ying (shadow) asked in reverse: "If he is not related to Hai LongSuzerain, how can we know what happened between us and Hai LongSuzerain? Moreover, if he did not mention the name of Hai LongSuzerain, I have no reason to let go of Mo Sect. Now that we have reclaimed most of the land in North Xinjiang, I do not want to make a major injury to this tribe because of this embarrassing dispute. Elders, I hope you can understand my current mood. Everything has stabilized, what we need is to increase the number of saints. Let our people live a happy life on the basis of peace. ”

    Bumble smell suddenly plopped and fell to the ground, respectful of the road: "His Saint King, before this seat on your decision some doubts, please punish you."

    Ying (shadow) shook his head and said: "But you know Elder, I know everything you do is for the saints. I will not blame you. You all go out. I want to be alone. ”

    The bad news got up slowly and the elders sprinted out. Kong Lin stayed at the end. He couldn't help but say to Ying (shadow): "Saint King, are you thinking about our saints or the bastard Hai Long?"

    Ying (shadow) was shocked by the whole body, and the light in his eyes flowed, for this man who had almost become his husband. She really could not bear to scold, said: "Kong LinElder brother, you go out."

    Kong Lin is very excited. "No. Ying (shadow), do you forget the feelings between us for so many years? I love you so much! Ying (shadow). ”

    Ying (shadow) slowly closed her eyes and she did not know. It was because she remembered that Hai Long still reached the current settlement from the perspective of the interests of the saints. “Go out, Kong Lin Elder brother.”

    Kong Lin took a stride to Ying (shadow) and clutched her shoulder with both hands. "Ying (shadow). Give me another chance. I don't mind what happened between you and Hai Long Suzerain. I love you! ”

    Ying (shadow) fiercely opened his eyes, staring at Kong Lin's eyes, and said coldly: "Go out."Kong Lin shook his head like a cold water, and trembled slightly. He wanted to say something more, but when he saw the cold eyes of Ying (shadow), he had to flinch. Long sigh, turned and went out. Ying (shadow) looked at the background of Kong Lin and whispered: "I'm sorry, Kong Lin Elder brother. It is Ying (shadow) who has lost your feelings. However, the body of Ying (shadow) has already been given to him. I really can't be with you anymore! This is unfair to you. ”

    The room became empty, and Ying (shadow) suddenly felt that he was alone. Hai Long's face continued to flash in front of her eyes. Three hundred years, a total of three hundred years we can meet again, Hai Long! This is the only hope in Ying (shadow) and is the only hope I have for living. When three hundred years have come, you must come to meet me. I am really lonely now. So painful. .

………………………………

    Hai Long is slowly flying forward and flies while feeling the surprise of Primal chaos. Suddenly, he seemed to feel something, his heart startled, and he suddenly felt something uneasy in his heart, controlling his body to stop and look to the clouds of gas beneath his feet. Mortal realm. It was information from Mortal realm that it seemed that someone in Mortal realm was thinking of himself. Such a strong obsession can actually be transmitted to one's own mind. Who is it? Is it the Zhi ShuiSenior sister apprentice? Is Yu Hua siblings or Hou Tian? Nah. Unlike They should not have such a big sad gas!

    Is thinking, in front of a cloud flying. The cloud is light purple, like the purple gas to the East, full of unusual atmosphere, Hai Long looked up and looked, the purple cloud has come to the front in an instant, it is an old man, the whole body purple jade belt, demeanor freely, chubby It looks very harmonious. See Hai Long. There was a hint of surprise in his eyes and he smiled and said: "This fairy friend has asked. I'm not sure if I can do anything convenient. ”

    Hai Long also said: "Predecessors are welcome. It was only when the boy first arrived at Immortal World. The facts in Immortal World are not quite understood. If you can't answer your question, please don't be surprised. ”

    The purple-robed old man smiled and said: “A good polite child is better than those who pretend to be extraordinary. This is the case. I thought of Five Village Monastery to see Zhen Yuan Great Immortal, but I didn’t walk in Immortal World for many years and I really forgot Five. Where is the Village Monastery? Finding a memory nearby does not allow Ying (shadow). Did the little brother know this place?”

    Hai Long laughed: "Other places are not clear to younger generations. Five Village Monastery still knows that younger generations are also thinking about going and they will be a guide for predecessors. The older generation came with me. ”At the foot of the drive, Golden Clouds rises, and the old man in purple is flying in the direction of the Five Village Monastery. Hai Long felt that the atmosphere of the old purple robe was very strange, and that the immortality did not seem to be powerful, but it gave people an unfathomable feeling. On the other hand, he marched on his brother, and the purple-robed old man said: "It seems that I was really looking for someone. Will the young friend respect the teacher who ah? ”

    Hai Long hesitated and said: "I'm sorry seniors, my master does not want me to casually mention the name of his elderly, but also please see you."Recalling Sun Wukong's reputation in Immortal World, he thought it was better not to mention it. The purple robe old man did not care about anything, but only smiled and said: "Naturally will know later."

    After a few moments, Five Village Monastery is already in front of her eyes. The purple-paved old man laughed and said: "The old man is actually remembering the wrong direction. It turned out to be here. Xiaoyou, thank you very much. ”Hai Long only felt like he was in front of him. The old man in purple robe had disappeared in front of him. The next moment, he appeared beside the goalkeeper's Six Ear Macaque. Hai Long hurried to follow, Six Ear Macaque strung a long stick in his hand, and stopped the duo and said, "Who are you, what are you doing here?"

    Hai Long's heart was amused and his change was indeed large enough that even his familiar Six Ear Macaque could not recognize it. The purple robe smiled a little and said: "I haven't travelled in the Immortal World for a long time. Now it is too few to know the old man. Trouble you to speak to Zhen Yuan Great Immortal and say that your friend has come to visit. He will naturally let me in. ”As he spoke, his hand was bright, and an extra round of jade was handed over. There are no lines on the jade, and the halo is flowing. There seems to be a purple rise. When Six Ear Macaque listened to the other friend, who was called Zhen Yuan Great Immortal, he was very polite and took the jade slightly, saying, "Trouble you waiting here for a while. I'll come and come."Then he opened the door and reported it to him on his own.

    Purple robes to Hai Long said: "Little Friend, this guardian Monkey doesn't seem to know you! But I think you should be familiar with Zhen Yuan Great Immortal. ”

    Hai Long smiled and said: "Yes! Zhen Yuan Great Immortal is my Elderly master. It was only recently that I practiced a method of immortality that changed the appearance and temperament. Therefore, the six ears of the guard, the Elder brother, did not know. ”

    The purple robe old man looked at Hai Long in surprise and his eyes flashed with purple light. Hai Long only felt that the other party's eyes were as if they were real. It seemed that they wanted to see through themselves. The body spontaneously raised a faint layer of Primal chaos. The feeling of seeing disappears. Purple robe nodded his head and said: "The small and friendly cultivation, the younger friends practiced the immortal law I really can not see through! It seems that after the Yangtze River pushes forward, our old guys will be replaced by you sooner or later. ”Hai Long just wanted to say something but felt a faint familiar atmosphere in the Five Village Monastery. Six Ear Macaque walked out after the Zhen Yuan Great Prestige.

    Hai Long was shocked and able to personally greet the Zhen Yuan Great Immortal. The identity of this old man in purple is not unusual. I only saw Zhen Yuan Great Immortal laughing and said: "What kind of wind blows you up with Deity? We are afraid that we haven't seen it for more than 30,000 years. Deity has always been good? How do you dress like this? I'm afraid to admit it. ”

    The purple-robed man smiled and said: "I'm very polite. I haven't been able to go out for a long time. I couldn't find your Five Village Monastery. Thanks to this little friend, I can only come here."

    Hai Long respectfully said: "The disciple Hai Long, see the Elderly master."

    Zhen Yuan Great Immortal said: "Hai Long? You say you are Hai Long? ”

    Hai Long said something awkward: "Yes! The disciple was Hai Long who had previously visited the Tai Shang Old Monarch with the Master and the Dimpakara Founder Buddha and asked the old man to open the alchemy. Later, the master told me to eat your ginseng fruit and put me in the gossip furnace. After refining for a while, my appearance changed, but the disciple was really Hai Long. ”

    Zhen Yuan Great Immortal looked up and down at Hai Long's appearance. Suddenly, he was shocked. He seemed to have thought of something and lost his voice. "Don't Goku adventured you to practice…"Speaking of this, he glanced at the old man in purple and stopped beside him and sighed and said: "Deity, please, Hai Long, you will come."

    "Yes.Hai Long promised, followed Zhen Yuan Great Immortal and the purple-robed old man walking inwards, passing him alongside Six Ear Macaque and making a grimace at him.

    When Six Ear Macaque looked at this young English man, he dared not agree with each other. The change in Hai Long was too great. Not only did the appearance completely change, but even the temperament and the original sentiment were quite different from before.

    In the back hall, Zhen Yuan Great Immortal waved and the trio came to his secret room. Zhen Yuan Great Immortal smiled and said, "Hai Long, I haven't introduced you yet. This is San Shi's originator Yuan ShiDeity. It is the oldest predecessor of Immortal World. It was the same generation as Tathagata Founder Buddha. It was one of the founding fathers of the Imperial World when I was born. ".

    Hai Long was shocked by how he didn't know Yuan ShiDeity. In Mortal realm, the first of three Taoist comprehension for Taoist comprehension was Yuan ShiDeity! His status is even higher on the Tai Shang Old Monarch, which is the leading figure in Immortal World. Unexpectedly, the old man, who looked extremely kind to him, actually faced him. Hurriedly said: "I don't know Deity. If you had a previous disrespect, please forgive me."

    Yuan ShiDeity smiled a little and said: "You don't have to be friends. After coming out of the mountain, among the immortals I saw, you are the most polite one. Daxian! Whether this younger friend is a disciple or not, I really cannot understand what he is doing. What he exudes seems to be an extremely pure fairy, but it is also different from other gods. ”

    Zhen Yuan Great Immortal smiled and said: "To say his master, I am afraid that you will be surprised. Although you have not been out of the mountains for 30,000 years, you must remember that when you were in a haunted palace, you confided in Immortal World, and later learned about the Great Sage. Equal of heavenSun Wukong. He is the only disciple of Sun Wukong. Sun Wukong gave him Golden Cudgel, but he was very loving to this disciple! ”

    Yuan ShiDeity was indeed shocked. He looked at Hai Long and said: "You turned out to be the disciple of the Hericium. It seems that the real thing will be reversed. The Hericium has always been arrogant. It never occurred to his disciples to be so polite. ”Hai Long peeked at Yuan ShiDeity and said, if you know what I was doing when I was at Mortal realm. I am afraid I will not say so. Alas, if I understand respecting others earlier, perhaps Mortal realm will not be confused. Immortal World is a new beginning. I also want to make a new Hai Long. His original arrogance has long been frustrated after entering the Immortal World, and without the angular Hai Long, it becomes more sleek and more easily accepted by others.

    Zhen Yuan Great Immortal: "Hai Long. When your master took you to Tai Shang Old Monarch, did you allow Laojun to refine your body in nine days and three real times to help you cultivate the temperament of Primal chaos? ”

    Hai Long nodded and said: "Yes. Elderly master, under the assist/help of Tai Shang Old Monarch, the master, and the Dimpakara Founder Buddha, the original immortal law in my body has already melted down. Achieve the primacy of Primal chaos. ”

    Although Zhen Yuan Great Immortal has long guessed, but his face is still a change, Yuan ShiDeity is speechless, he floated forward, Hai Long has not had time to react, a tight body, the right hand has been caught in the wrist Yuan ShiDeity's chubby palm. Gentle air flow enters the body from the right-hand wrist veins without deliberately stopping it with Hai Long, and the natural gas of Primal chaos is naturally reflected. The right arm is bright, and under the injection of Primal chaos, Soaring Dragon Jade burst out of extraordinary power. The entire Five Village Monastery shook, and Yuan ShiDeity frowned and had to release his hand. Hai Long's body was shaken back five steps. Although it has the temperament of Primal chaos, there is still a big gap between the famous Immortal World names such as Hai Long and Yuan ShiDeity, and Yuan ShiDeity grabbed his strongest right arm and this was broken.

    Yuan ShiDeity exports gas, saying: "It's a good, pure Primal chaos. And the gas of Primal chaos has solidified and will not change again. I really wonder how you did it. Although Laojun's nine-day fire is the best guide, it is not so easy to absorb and use. ”

    Zhen Yuan Great Immortal smiled and said: "I can answer these questions for you. Did the old Shang of Tai Shang Old Monarch not be lost? In fact, it fell into the Mortal realm, and it was acquired by Hai Long. He was hidden in his mind and in the wake of the nine-day San Francisco fire, Laojun recorded it, naturally letting Hai Long learn to absorb nine days of real fire. The method, together with the Dimpakara Founder Buddha, asks Primal chaos, who was refined by Laojun, to establish his strength of Primal chaos. It was just that Hai Long's perseverance was indeed out of my expectation. I am afraid even if it was me, it would be very hard for me to live for nine days. ”

    Hai Long was a bit embarrassed: "Actually, it hurts at first, but then I fainted and I didn't feel anything. It finally succeeded. It's my luck. ”

    Yuan ShiDeity smiled and said: "This is a unique gift, and it became the first immortal to cultivate the pre-emptive Primal chaos. It seems that in the future we will have to give more assistance and we must not allow him to embark on the wrong road! ”

    Zhen Yuan Great Precision said: "Sun Wukong's courage is really great, and Dimpakara Founder Buddha even went so far as to accompany him. What if he fails? Hai Long was destroyed. ”His voice contained anger in his voice.

    Hai Long hurriedly defended Sun Wukong: "Elderly master, no. The master once left a stray hair in my mouth. If I couldn't keep it, I only had to use the force to induce the hair to deal with it. Elderly master, this time I come back, I want to use you to practice for a period of time in order to get acquainted with the characteristics of Primal chaos. I hope you will answer. The disciple will not give you trouble. ”

    Zhen Yuan Great Immortal's smile on his face, said: "Well, then you go first. Where you live, let Tieguai Li arrange it for you. Old and six ears are not good at the door. It will be Ying (shadow) the progress of your cultivation. ”Hai Long nodded and said: "Thank you, Elderly master, Elderly master, Deity. The disciple retired."Said, the whole body of red light flashed, has disappeared in the secret room.

    Zhen Yuan Great Immortal said bluntly: "Good boy. He has been there three times. He really saw through my ban on the secret chamber. It was a genius."

    Yuan ShiDeity smiled and said: "This child does not seem to have long training time, but he seems to have experienced many things. Even the old ones can't see through him."

    Zhen Yuan Great Immortal said: "Deity was out of the mountain. I don't know what happened? I think, if there is no reason, you can't bear to leave your Baoshan! ”

    Yuan ShiDeity nodded. Road: "I really did come out of this mountain. A few days ago, I watched the sky and felt that Immortal World would have a great robbery. The 100,000-year agreement between Tathagata Founder Buddha and the Underworld Emperor is about to expire. I'm afraid that there will be variables in Immortal World! This time out of the mountain, I came to see you old friends, and another one, I took a trip to the Buddha realm and asked Tathagata Founder Buddha to come out and preside over the overall situation. For 100,000 years, Immortal World seems to be peaceful and disorganized. It is like a dish of scattered sand. The Immortal Emperor Weed is not enough to control the Immortal World. Once the underworld attacks, I am afraid we still have to meet these old guys. Only Tathagata Founder Buddha can bring all Immortal World parties together in order to resist foreign enemies. We must not underestimate the underworld. Underworld Emperor is not under Founder Buddha. There are many people who can do it. For 100,000 years, we did not know how the underworld changed. Everything is still careful. The defense is the mainstay, at least it can keep the cents and the buddhist world without losing. ".

    Zhen Yuan Great Immortal's face shows a hint of worry. Sigh: "Deity, I don't have to go to see the Buddha realm. I am afraid that you will not see Tathagata Founder Buddha. ”

    A glimpse of Yuan ShiDeity. Road: "Is Founder Buddha's injury not yet cured?"

    Zhen Yuan Great Immortal Lips swayed and shut their voices completely with imperial law to talk to Yuan ShiDeity. Yuan ShiDeity's face changes continuously. “什么？ Why?

    Zhen Yuan Great Immortal sighed: "This is what Dimpakara Founder Buddha says. No fault. For the threat of the underworld, we must think long-term. ”

    Yuan ShiDeity sighed and said: "Is Immortal World really worth the catastrophe I predicted? What will the underworld bring us? It seems that old age can no longer live in peace. ”

    Yuan ShiDeity and Zhen Yuan Great Immortal are both worried about the future of Immortal World. However, isn't the difficulty of Immortal World really coming from the underworld? In this judgment. They may not be correct.

    Hai Long gave birth to the Zhen Yuan Great Immortal, and his heart was filled with joy. After Primal chaos became a little mad. He can indeed not be restricted by any prohibition and absolute space. With his understanding of various forms of battles, he easily cracked the ban on Zhen Yuan Great Immortal. A few of them fled and came outside the Five Village Monastery. Hai Long took a slap on the shoulder of Six Ear Macaque. He laughed, "Elder brother, six ears. I'm back."

    Six Ear Macaque was shocked and turned to look at Hai Long. "You kid, how did you become like this? Is it immortalized by immortals? ”

    Hai Long smiled and said: "Of course not. This is a change in my body. Six ears, Elder brother, how are I now more handsome than before? ”

    Six Ear Macaque snorted silently and said: "What is it? Where did you go with the Holy Buddha these days? How come back to this strange appearance. To be honest, I still like what you used to be. ”Indeed, the previous Hai Long looked very natural, but now he, who exudes a looming momentum, can not help but create the idea of ​​wanting to surrender to him.

    Hai Long sat down with Six Ear Macaque and learned the tone of Dimpakara Founder Buddha: “The Buddha is not to be said. Six ears, Elder brother, don't ask. Anyway, your brother I was stronger than before. You tell me soon, what happened after the ginseng fruit conference when I left? Who has got the ginseng fruit? ”

    Six Ear Macaque said: “That day, your mentor and the Dimpakara Founder Buddha took 15 ginseng fruit. The immortals who came to the Pinnacle Convention thought that there wasn’t much to be divided. However, Daxian still took 10 of them for fair competition. At the end of the day, it was naturally happy. Ding Man and Man Yu left and Meng YunFairy became the most outstanding person among the immortals. . The other nine were also acquired by other immortals. If they did not know why, Daxian announced that they would use two ginseng fruits to give to Ding Man and Man Yu, and let Lu Dongbin personally send them to Snowfall Mountain. After this ginseng meeting, there was almost nothing left in Daxian. The ginseng fruit will be run in a lively event, and many immortals have left for a few days in the park. ”

    Meng YunFairy. When you heard these words, Hai Long could not help but flash a glimmer of coldness. He did not know how his current revision was compared with Meng Yun Fairy, but he always breathed a sigh of relief. One day, he wanted to let himself say that he was The waste woman looks to see if she is not a waste. “Six ears, Elder brother, I can't stay here with you for a long time. I'm going to retreat for some time. ”

    In the eyes of Six Ear Macaque, there was a glimmer of disappointment. He said, "Who used your kid to accompany him, what was he going to do? I was alone and happy."

    Hai Long only felt a slight warmth in his eye, surprisingly did not take out the last few gourd wines from the Yin-Yang ring with the Six Ear Macaque bickering, said: "Six ears Elder brother, you can rest assured that regardless of the future Hai Long becomes What kind of thing, no matter where I am in the future. Your kindness Hai Long will never forget. I have so much wine on my body. You should be able to drink for a while if you drink slowly. When I am successful, I will return to Mortal realm to get more monkey wine for you. ”His voice has shuddered. Hai Long's most respected one is naturally the master Sun Wukong, but most grateful is the Six Ear Macaque who has truly brought him into the path of cultivation. Everything that happened that year was still vivid.

    Six Ear Macaque looked at several big gourds in front of him. "Wow, good boy, it turns out you still have so much hidden. You kid, you kid…"Suddenly he jumped up and took a big shot on Hai Long's shoulder. There was no banter on his face. "Hai Long, go. You and me are different. You have what you should do. I have a hunch that in the near future, you will certainly be able to become a pivotal figure in Immortal World. The golden scales are the things in the pool. As long as you always remember your six ears, Elder brother, it is enough. ”

    Hai Long didn't say anything. His eyes were bright. Six Ear Macaque felt only a tight body. Hai Long's body suddenly turned to his back, and his palm flapped onto the Lingtai hole in his vest. Pure Primal Chaos enters the Six Ear Macaque softly, and the warm airflow moistens the body of the Six Ear Macaque. Hai Long's Fire Attribute Primal Chaos's spirit can be shared with any fairy actor except the relative ice Attribute. . What's more, it's Zhenyi Great Immortal's Taiyi law. The air did not take any detours and was injected directly into the cradle of the Six Ear Macaque. With the pure air, the assist/helpSix Ear Macaque kept draining the impurities out of the body. His silvery hair gradually changed, at the hair roots. There was a hint of red. Six Ear Macaque can't move at all, but tears flow down the face. Of course, he knows that Hai Long will make his own progress a great one, and he can reach the Grand Gold Immortal boundary sooner. It will also cost Hai Long a lot of mana and it will take a short time to recover. How can Hai Long not be moved by what he has done to him?

    With a flash of light, Six Ear Macaque only felt full of shock. The body was full of honest Taiyi infuriating, and Hai Long had already been in the shadows, leaving no trace. .
