Dugu Meng chuckled and continued eating meat.

Dugu Qiusheng, however, had no restraint and told Bian Lang all the humiliations he and his son had suffered in the Kaoshan Gang.

"How could such a promiscuous slut be my wife, Dugu Qiusheng?" Dugu Qiusheng said, not forgetting to curse Su Xiaoxiao one last time.

Dugu Meng frowned as she listened. This was undoubtedly a family scandal, and it was said that family scandals should not be aired in public. But her son seemed to want to announce it to the whole world.

Bian Lang smiled and advised, "Brother Dugu, think positively. There are plenty of fish in the sea. Why be hung up on a dung heap?"

“That makes sense.” Dugu Qiusheng then explained that he had no feelings for Su Xiaoxiao at all; it was all because his father arranged the marriage when they were still children that he was in such a terrible situation.

Dugu Meng actually wanted to test Bian Lang's strength at this moment.

When they were slapped away by Bian Lang, they all thought that Bian Lang was drawing strength from Xing Tian's remains.

If Bian Lang is still very powerful, it means that he has completely obtained the little power left in Xing Tian's remains.

Fortunately, he didn't have much of a conflict with Bian Lang. Dugu Qiusheng and Bian Lang seemed to have a pretty good relationship. Compared to the alliance with Kaoshan Gang, it might be a better choice to let Bian Lang join Tieweicheng.

"Brother Bian, where are you going to drive corpses this time?" Dugu Qiusheng thought that if Iron City wasn't currently facing a great crisis, he would want to follow Bian Lang and experience what it's like to drive corpses.

Bian Lang said, "There are no corpses to drive around right now, so I'm planning to find a treasure that can make the lake water emit a misty spiritual energy."

Dugu Qiusheng looked puzzled.

There are indeed many such treasures in this world, but the owners of those treasures would not use them to purify lake water.

Bian Lang simply really liked the Pangu Axe and wanted to use it as his weapon, so he needed to find a replacement for it.

"Why would Brother Bian want to throw the treasure into the lake?" Dugu Qiusheng couldn't understand it at all.

Bian Lang sighed, "The animals in the Misty Forest cultivate by relying on the spiritual energy brought by Xing Tian's remains. My taking Xing Tian's remains away has seriously affected their cultivation."

"Brother Bian is truly righteous." Dugu Qiusheng really hadn't expected this reason.

Bian Lang asked with a smile, "Brother Dugu, do you know where such a treasure can be found?"

"My Fuxi Qin from Iron Enclosure City does have this effect, but..." Dugu Qiusheng said, turning his head to look at Dugu Meng beside him.

Dugu Meng looked embarrassed and really wanted to slap Dugu Qiusheng a few times.

This unfilial son actually wants to give away such a divine artifact as the Fuxi Qin?

Even if it's just for show, you can't do it like this.

Bian Lang said, "The existence of Pangu's Axe and Fuxi's Zither means there are other divine artifacts in this world?"

"The Ascending Heaven Pavilion and the Mountain Backing Gang don't have any divine artifacts, but Mount Shu does have the Kunlun Mirror." Dugu Qiusheng's words pleased Dugu Meng greatly.

If the goal is simply to imbue the lake with a misty, spiritual aura, the Kunlun Mirror is more effective than the Fuxi Qin.

If Bian Lang can really take away the Kunlun Mirror, it will be a huge blow to Shu Mountain and its allies.

Dugu Meng immediately revealed the wonders of the Kunlun Mirror, intending to entice Bian Lang to seize it.

“Father, even if the three factions have formed an alliance, we don’t need to be afraid of them, let alone think about using Brother Bian to deal with them.” Dugu Qiusheng’s words made Dugu Meng so angry that she almost vomited blood.

Bian Lang could definitely see through his true purpose, but hearing it from his own son made Dugu Meng feel like an idiot.

The father and son played good cop and bad cop, but ultimately, they wanted Bian Lang to go to Mount Shu to steal the Kunlun Mirror.

Compared to Dugu Meng, Qiu Wuwei's thoughts were even more insidious.

Bian Lang thought it would be a good idea to take a trip to Mount Shu, because he needed to ask Mo Qiao if her buttocks had healed.

Li Ziyi is seriously injured and will definitely not return to Dengtian Pavilion; she will surely go to Shushan to recuperate.

Mo Qiao was also injured, and Li Ziyi, feeling sorry for her beloved disciple, would definitely keep her by her side.

Having made up his mind, Bian Lang bid farewell to the two.

"Young brother, you want to challenge Mount Shu alone?" Dugu Meng asked in astonishment.

Bian Lang said, "It's not a challenge, I just need to borrow the Kunlun Mirror."

“Old Master Qiu is not a generous person,” Dugu Meng said.

Bian Lang smiled and said, "How about Lord Dugu lend me the Fuxi Qin?"

Dugu Meng's face turned pale, and she could no longer speak.

For some reason, just standing here and talking to Bian Lang gave Dugu Meng a creepy feeling.

"Father, why don't we lend the Fuxi Qin to Brother Bian?" Dugu Qiusheng suggested.

Bian Lang really couldn't understand Dugu Qiusheng. In terms of friendship, the two had only met a few times and shared drinks together. Their relationship wasn't deep enough for Dugu Qiusheng to lend out the magical Fuxi Qin.

Dugu Meng said, "You decide for yourself."

Dugu Meng knew her son well and knew that he was by no means a fool, and that there must be a deeper meaning behind his actions.

The Fuxi Qin is indeed an ancient artifact, but if the three factions unite to attack, the Fuxi Qin will not be able to save Iron City.

Perhaps it's possible for someone like Bian Lang.

When Dugu Meng was young, he could be described as a gambler.

The Iron Wall is now facing an unprecedented crisis, and to resolve it, a high-stakes gamble is needed.

"Brother Bian, please come with me to Iron City to retrieve the zither, and also the Meng Po wine from Iron City, you must try it." Dugu Qiusheng said, licking his lips.

Before setting off, he brought a large amount of Meng Po wine, but he drank too much on the way and ran out of it before even reaching Kaoshan City.

Anyway, there's plenty of time. Bian Lang is curious to see what tricks Dugu Qiusheng is up to.

It's easier to get the Fuxi Qin from the Iron City than to go to Mount Shu to seize the Kunlun Mirror.

Of the three traveling together, Dugu Meng felt the most awkward.

Not long after, Dugu Meng set off ahead of him.

As they were about to reach Iron City, Bian Lang asked, "Brother Dugu, are you really willing to lend me the Fuxi Qin?"

“I don’t know why, but I just feel a strong connection with Brother Bian. I abandoned Brother Bian and fled for my life that day, and I still regret it to this day. As the saying goes, it is easy to find a thousand pieces of gold, but difficult to find a true friend. What is the Fuxi Qin?” Dugu Qiusheng’s eyes looked very sincere.

Bian Lang laughed and said, "I thank Brother Dugu again on behalf of the animals of the Misty Forest."

Dugu Qiusheng laughed heartily and said that he would definitely go and see what the lake that was soaked in the Fuxi Qin would become if he had the chance in the future.

Several days later, the two appeared outside the Iron Walled City.

The Iron Walled City was built on a cliff, and the mountainside was shrouded in clouds and mist, making it impossible to see from the foot of the mountain.

Ordinary people need to take a cable car to enter and exit the Iron Walled City.

This cable car was built by a master mechanic; it is extremely ingenious. Once the mechanism is activated, it can transport a hundred people at a time for rapid passage.

However, cultivators do not need to rely on cable cars, swords, or climbing to enter the Iron City.

Dugu Qiusheng consulted Bian Lang's opinion and ultimately chose to take the cable car.

Taking the cable car also has its advantages, such as being able to enjoy the magnificent scenery of the Iron City.
