This time I went to Yantai, of course, to cause trouble for the Tianguan Zilin sacred tree.

But there is a problem. Bai Mo knows the true appearance of the Tianguan Zilin sacred tree, and even knows that it became like that because of a curse.

But others don't know.

"Why did you bring us to Yantai?"

On the high-speed train, Lingling was fiddling with her small computer with a hint of confusion in her eyes.

"The crowns and leaves of the Tilia trees here seem to be in great demand recently, but you shouldn't be short of money. Hey, why are my sister and Mo Fan here too?"

Bai Mo smiled slightly. This was his plan. Since Lingling and the others didn’t know, he needed to let them know.

"I asked Qingqing to come here. Kongxin Yangliu discovered a long time ago that there was a tree demon at the level of the Supreme Monarch hidden in the outer Kunyu Mountain. It was related to the Oath Tree and had a strong aura of blood resentment. We came here this time just for this tree demon."

Ding Yumian, who was sitting next to him, glanced at him with lake-like eyes and said nothing. Bai Mo smiled again. This was of course a lie.

The hollow willow is not the god of the tree monsters, so it cannot sense the strength of each tree monster.

He just revealed this information under the name of Hollow Willow.

There is a supreme monarch near Yantai! This is something worth paying attention to anyway, even if it is just a rumor, especially since this demon tree may be related to the oath tree.

The Spark Trial just happened to be in urgent need of doing something big to build momentum, and it also needed a more powerful core constraint system.

So before he went to Tianmen, he told Leng Qing about this matter and told her that he could let Mo Fan investigate.

As everyone knows, no matter who investigates the affairs of the law, there may be problems. If Mo Fan investigates, there will definitely be problems.

Even if someone found out that he didn't tell the truth, such as Yu Mian, it didn't matter, Yu Mian was one of them.

"Oh~, do you want the Hollow Willow to absorb the demon tree and go one step further?"

Lingling nodded thoughtfully, then immediately shook her head, "No, if it is really related to the Oath Tree, then it can become the core of the oath of the Starfire Trial. You called my sister."

Lingling's eyes became brighter and brighter. She just needed to push the non-existent glasses on her face, and then adjust the red bow tie that didn't exist at her collar, and then point at Bai Mo and shout -

There is only one truth!

"Sister still has a contract position. You don't want her to contract the demon tree, do you?"

Bai Mo was slightly stunned, and then fell into deep thought. He originally wanted Ding Yumian to purify the curse on the Tianduan Purple Crown Divine Tree, and then sign a spiritual agreement with it.

Let's turn it into a sacred tree of Starfire Judgment and plant it on the edge of Jingshan Mountain. It would be great to use it as a tourist attraction.

If the Tianguan Zilin sacred tree disagrees, then we can only beat it up first, convince it with reason, and then sign the contract.

But after Lingling said this, Bai Mo found that his imagination seemed to have broadened a lot.

Yes, there is obviously a summoning contract, which will further enhance Qingqing’s strength.

The summoning contract, plus the mental clause, is a double constraint, so there is no need to worry about the Tianguan Purple Tilia sacred tree causing trouble.

Even if we think in a positive way, humans have reached a good cooperation with the purified Tianguan Purple Tilia sacred tree. This supreme monarch can definitely become the "totem" of the Demon City.

It has been passed down from generation to generation, and each generation finds someone to sign a contract with the purple lime tree to summon them.

Although there are not many summoning mages, there are still quite a few.

"Yes, that's what I thought. I didn't expect you to guess it."

Bai Mo nodded with admiration on his face, praising Lingling's intelligence with his expression.

"Hehe~~, when it comes to using your brain, look to this beautiful girl!" Lingling raised her chin.

"Heh~" Ding Yumian on the side chuckled, but couldn't help laughing after all.

Bai Mo knew what she was laughing at without even thinking, so he put his hands on her shoulders and pretended to be fierce.

"why are you laughing?"

"I thought of happy things."

Pursing her lips, Ding Yumian's smile not only did not disappear, but became even more intense.

"What's the happy news? Your wife is pregnant?!"

"Your wife is pregnant!"

"Ah~?" Bai Mo pretended to be surprised and quickly put his hand on her belly, "When? Let me hear it."

"Stop it." Ding Yumian quickly held him down. This was on a high-speed train, and she was still a little embarrassed to make such a joke.

Lingling stared at the computer seriously, pretending that she didn't know the two people in front of her. Jiang Shaoxu closed his eyes all the way, always seizing the time to control the stars, striving to master the super-level magic as soon as possible.

Very lucky to have escaped a disaster.

Yantai, surrounded by water and mountains, is an important city on the Jiaodong Peninsula.

Leng Qing has been here for some time, but the place where he is staying is not the residence of the members of the Inquisition.

It was the Lv Yi courtyard of Jiang Feng’s mother, who went by the pseudonym Yan.

In the car, Leng Qing said while driving, "Senior Jiang Feng and her daughter often stay here. After a few visits, Senior Lu Yi and I became familiar with each other."

"Senior Lü Yi heard that there is a supreme monarch hiding in the outer Kunyu Mountain. She is very excited and may ask you some questions. Don't be shy when you see her later."

Bai Mo turned his head and looked at her, vaguely understanding what she meant.

"Senior Lu Yi wants to do it himself?"

"She wants to be with us. She is already very old and is not fit to use her full strength, otherwise Xingyu will surely collapse."

Hearing this, Bai Mo nodded. Since three generations of the family have been reunited, it would be better not to do anything regrettable.

"I'll try to persuade him. How's Mo Fan's investigation going?"

"This matter is very dangerous, so I didn't ask him to come. I investigated it myself and found that there is only one very tall purple linden tree in the outer Kunyu Mountain. Many creatures live on it, forming a small demon ecosystem."

"I didn't feel it had any intelligence, but based on the clues you mentioned, I did find a lot of corpses and blood caves near it. It feeds on the blood and souls of living beings. It was from me that Senior Lu Yi learned about this and wanted to do it himself.

Speaking of which, Senior Lv Yi was once a totem guardian, and her guardian totem was."

Leng Qing briefly recounted the story of Lu Yi and Yue Ehuang, letting everyone understand why she wanted to do it herself and how urgent this idea was.

It was because of Lu Yi's past that they believed the big purple linden tree had an evil nature. She glanced at the red light at the intersection, stepped on it, got out of the car, and took a sip of water.

“If that is the Supreme Monarch that Hollow Willow sensed, then we need to wait two days before we can act.

Because of the crown leaves of the Tilia amurensis tree, plus its appearance, it is a treasure trove in the eyes of Yantai hunters. If we want to touch it, we need to ask all those who have gone to pick the crown leaves to come back. I have already negotiated for this, and someone will cooperate to issue a notice. We must reveal its true face in front of the Yantai officials.

In addition, there are many demons living around the purple linden tree, and they will all become its protectors. I wonder if there is a hegemon from the outer Kunyu Mountain among them. "

"It is said that the overlord of Outer Kunyu Mountain has died, but no one has seen it with their own eyes, including me, so we have to be on guard against this."

Bai Mo knew that this so-called overlord no longer existed. He nodded and said, "I will use the sound system to carefully detect it when the time comes."

As one of the rare supreme monarch-level demons of the plant family, the vitality of the Tianguan Purple Tilia Divine Tree is unquestionable.

Their goal is to purify the curse on it, but it may not be willing to do so, so this battle is inevitable.

Bai Mo was not afraid of losing, as in the original novel, Lu Yi and Yue Ehuang, who had an outburst, both badly beat him.

This time he had two supreme monarchs with him and a victim following him.

But what they have to do is to subdue the enemy, which is more difficult than killing them, which makes Bai Mo feel that the cards in his hand are not enough.

The main reason is that they are afraid that the sacred Tianguan Lily Tree will see that the situation is not good and run away.

Bai Mo had no idea how long the hollow willow tree could restrict the world. When he was ambushing Zhuang Yue, Zhuang Yue didn't think he would die and had no intention of running away.

Obviously, he believed that his own strength was enough to escape the prison of heaven and earth of Hollow Willow.

By the time he wanted to run away, it was too late.

The Tianguan Purple Tilia Sacred Tree and the Hollow Willow are both supreme monarchs. Bai Mo believes that the Hollow Willow can trap it for some time.

But during this period, Jingwei needs to withstand the main firepower. On the other hand, the minds of demons are more difficult to control than those of humans.

While thinking, the car slowly stopped in front of a courtyard.

When I entered the courtyard, I saw an old lady lying there. Her half-white hair was sparkling in the sunlight. The light outlined the wrinkles of time on her face. She looked very peaceful and kind.

Chen Ying was pruning flowers. On the other side, Jiang Feng was sitting with a drawing board in front of him. On the canvas, a scene in the yard was painted.

Seeing someone coming in, the old lady opened her eyes.

"It's Xiaoqing, these are..."

"He is Bai Mo. I told you before that these two are his friends, and this is my sister."

Leng Qing smiled, his temperament softened, and he introduced them to her one by one.

"Hello, Senior Lu Yi." Bai Mo and others stepped forward to greet him.

"What's the use of being a senior? You can just call me Granny Yan."

Yan waved his hand, and his eyes swept over them. His gaze was not heavy, but it seemed as if he saw through several of them. He opened his mouth and said,

"You are a very generous young man. You are so lucky. You should cherish her. Don't think I am annoying. I just think you look good. You are not like these flowers and plants that need to be trimmed. I am giving you a reminder."

Bai Mo smiled awkwardly. He felt a little scary with several pairs of eyes on him.

This is not a good thing to say.

"Granny Yan, I'll remember that."

"Well, sit inside and let Xiaoying accompany you."

Yan nodded in satisfaction, stood up and said leisurely, "It's lively today, let me show you my cooking skills, Feng'er, come and help me."

Jiang Feng responded and followed him into the backyard kitchen.

"Don't bother, Granny Yan." Leng Qing was about to refuse when he heard a voice from inside.

"Cooking is also my hobby. If you think the food is unpalatable later, just keep it to yourself."

"Grandma is just like that, don't mind it." Chen Ying smiled, asked a few people to sit down, and started chatting.

Bai Mo turned the topic to the company in Yantai that produced magic tools using the Tianguan Tilia tree, mainly to understand the extent to which the Tianguan industry had developed here.

Is it the same as in the original novel? It is time to launch a mission to collect purple crowns to hunters from all over the country.

"No, this company doesn't seem to have issued this mission to hunters from other places. But I heard that their light magic tools were selling very well. If they really make money, it should be the same as you said."

Bai Mo nodded in understanding and stopped talking. He listened to the others chatting and planned to relax himself.

The temperature was just right, the sun moved to the side, casting the shadows of the locust leaves on his face, and the chirping of cicadas and human voices rose and fell.

Bai Mo yawned and leaned his head against Qingqing. "I'll take a nap. Call me when the meal is ready."

He doesn't consider himself an outsider at all.

Pearl Academy, Campus Road

Yingying was walking around the campus in a white gauze dress with a faint smile on her face.

Beside her, a goat-like graceful and handsome beast followed, but the others seemed invisible.

"You want to see Yue E Huang? But she is still sleeping."

"Oh, then I'll take you to see her when she wakes up."

As Yu Shishi was speaking with a smile, she saw two people suddenly blocking her way.

She stopped and looked up, and saw a familiar, disgusting face with a man who looked like a guard.

"You again. I told you. I won't cooperate with you in any research. Don't bother me!"

"You actually came to Mingzhu Academy, but it's useless."

The man dressed as a researcher said lightly. Seeing that someone noticed this side, he did not block the road, but walked past Yu Shishi with his guards.

Only one sentence faintly rang in her ears.

"You can't stay in the city forever. Don't let me find out where you live."

Yu Shishi's face turned gloomy and she left without looking back.

But suddenly a cry of pain was heard, and Researcher Ke fell to the ground with a face like a dog eating shit, while an elegant Bai Ze walked away slowly beside him.

Yu Shishi immediately laughed and continued with light steps to enjoy the freedom she had never felt before.

"Humph! Don't think that you are the only one who knows the secret!"

Researcher Ke got up, snorted angrily in the direction where Yu Shishi disappeared, and continued to walk towards Dean Fu's office.

A rich fragrance permeates the courtyard.

Seven people sat around a round table under the shade of a tree, with dishes laid out on it.

Bai Mo's eyes were attracted by the fish dish in the middle. At the bottom of the big pot was the soup made from fresh small sea fish. The golden color gave people a strong appetite. The surface of the soup was dotted with scallions and peppers, alternating between green and red.

On the walls of the pot, there are slices of dough that are half the size of a palm and of moderate thickness, already golden in color.

Just looking at it makes your mouth water, not to mention the braised prawns, leeks, sea cucumbers, etc. on the side.

Several people praised Granny Yan, and then they took their seats one after another.

Yan Shi did not immediately ask Bai Mo about how he dealt with the giant purple linden tree in the outer Kunyu Mountain. After the five dishes were finished and everyone was almost done, he spoke.

"Xiao Mo, how do you know that there is a supreme monarch-level plant demon in the outer Kunyu Mountain?"

"My guardian totem discovered it. He was walking in the void once and passed by here. He sensed the powerful demon tree and judged that it had some connection with the oath tree, but it seemed to be cursed."

Bai Mo spoke without blushing or beating his heart. Only the willow branch that appeared in the silver hairpin gun on his palm was real.

Although Yan was old, her perception and judgment abilities were still there. With just a glance, she could tell that the origin of this small willow branch was also at the level of the Supreme Sovereign.

"No wonder, no wonder, the oath tree."

Yan murmured, pondered for a while, and then said, "No wonder~"

"Grandma Yan, we have the help of the hollow willow. You can just watch us defeat the demon tree in the outer Kunyu Mountain this time. We can do it."

Leng Qing took the opportunity to strike while the iron was hot and persuaded them that Lu Yiben was the first person to establish the Trial Council. It can be said that without her, there would be no current trial system in Jiuzhou.

It is true that the current Tribunal is also corrupt, but this has nothing to do with Lu Yi. Leng Qing is from the Tribunal, and she does not want Senior Lu Yi to make any mistakes.

Lu Yi didn't say anything, but just nodded slightly. It was unclear whether she agreed or something else. Her eyes kept flickering, and she was obviously lost in thought.

"Supreme Lord, the Oath Tree. There is no mistake. It is it! It is that devil! That devil tree!! It deceived us so badly!"

She suddenly spoke excitedly, and her eyes became extremely sharp and bright. They were the eyes of a person who had judged countless sins.

An infinite and fierce aura slowly rose from her body, and she moved forward courageously, as if nothing could stop her.

She suddenly looked at Bai Mo and others, "I know that tree!"

Yan slowly restrained his edge and momentum, and his words sounded clear.

"Many years ago, I was deceived by him. It was my fault. I should make up for it myself. I will go with you!"

"I don't know what your plans are, but I want to see it disappear with my own eyes. I won't go all out until the critical moment."

Bai Mo, Leng Qing, Jiang Feng and others were all speechless for a moment. They had already heard what Yan said about the inside story, so it was difficult for them to persuade him.

"Don't worry, Granny Yan, we will make sure that devil tree gets the punishment it deserves this time. You don't have to do anything. We can really handle it."

Bai Mo coughed and spoke slowly. At the same time, he reached to his waist and a demon-refining pot appeared in his hand. A terrifying aura was revealed for a moment and then disappeared in an instant.

"I brought two totems this time."

"Two supreme monarchs, boy, are you born from a totem?!"

Yan's eyes widened slightly, and even with her great composure, she was not surprised.

"Bring two totems with you, maybe you can really deal with that guy. However, your purpose doesn't seem that simple. Xiao Mo, what do you want to do?"

After all, she has lived for decades and has experienced everything. Bai Mo just made a vague assurance, but she had a vague feeling that things were not as simple as eradicating the devil tree.

"Granny Yan has a keen eye!"

Bai Mo praised and told him the plan he had thought of in the car.

". That's about it. I guess the tree must have become like that because of the curse. Otherwise, it shouldn't have grown so holy. Yu Mian can use the telepathy to purify its curse."

"Your idea is quite good. It's wild and imaginative, but there are also clues to follow. I have no objection to not killing it. Letting it serve Jiuzhou for generations will naturally be a better result."

Yan nodded and chuckled, "It's hard for you to be so reluctant. You are willing to give a supreme monarch to Qing girl."

Bai Mo just smiled. What you said is true. If you knew that I gave Yu Mian half of the Pluto position, wouldn’t you praise me to the sky and make me a liar? !

Yan naturally didn't know that Bai Mo's thoughts had already jumped to the eighteenth level of hell. She walked back and forth a few steps and finally said:

"The plan doesn't need to be changed. It can't resist the general trend. The only drawback is that we are afraid it will run away!

Trapping people is not something I am good at. So, I have a student who is also a super-class mage with good strength. He majors in the shadow system and is considered one of the best shadow system masters in the country. You take my token and ask him to help~"

After saying this, Yan Shi seemed to recall the information of the student, and then continued,

"His name is Xiang Xuewu. He came to see me three years ago. He is now the dean of Lanyang Academy. You can go to Lanyang Academy in Lanyang City to find him."

As she spoke, she took out pen and ink from the house and wrote a letter immediately.

Yan has lived in seclusion for many years, planting flowers and raising grass every day and ignoring external affairs. Therefore, she has not used the phone for a long time. At this moment, she can only convey information through letters.

Bai Mo took the letter and glanced at Leng Qing.

He knew Lanyang City and had heard of Lanyang Academy, but he had never heard of the dean of this Lanyang Academy.

One of the best shadow masters in the country?

For someone like Lu Yi to say that he is quite capable, this person must be at least a super-level Perfect One, right?

Leng Qing thought for a moment. She couldn't remember anyone outside the non-magic association.

"Ask Professor Shi, he might know him."

At this time, Ding Yumian spoke up to remind him. Bai Mo's eyes lit up when he heard this. Yes, Professor Shi's shadow ability is the best in Mingzhu Academy.

The friends of a big shot are naturally also big shots. The shadow circle is small to begin with, and it is even smaller in the country.

Professor Shi should know!

But you can't ask him in person. After all, it was Yan who just recommended him. If you ask him directly, aren't you questioning Yan?

It's just to invite one person, there's no need for everyone to go, so only Bai Mo went alone.

The main purpose of adding this person is to prevent Tianguan Zilinshu from escaping. Once it runs away, it will not be easy to catch it.

Although it escaped back to Qinling Mountains in the original book, what if it got upset this time and felt that Qinling Mountains were unsafe and ran to Kunlun? What should we do then?

As soon as he left the courtyard, Bai Mo called Professor Shi, exchanged a few pleasantries, and then went straight to the point and asked about Xiang Xuewu.

"Xiang Xuewu? He is the dean of Lanyang Academy. Why are you asking about him?"

"Ask him for help, Professor Shi, how strong is he?"

"You're worse than me, what are you trying to trap? What, you don't think highly of me?!"

"You are not in the country, Professor Shi. Please keep an eye on the Star Token while you are abroad. I sent you your information. Have you read it?"

"I've seen it, but I didn't expect there is such a totem. For this token, instead of looking for me, why don't you go find that guy? He is a collector and likes to collect some weird things."

Bai Mo was stunned, a little uncertain for a moment, "Who are you looking for?"

"This is the shadow master you want to invite." Professor Shi's vinegar bottle was knocked over.

"Good fellow, Professor, why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"If you hadn't asked, I wouldn't have remembered it."

Bai Mo was speechless, but he still remembered the main thing, "Professor, let me tell you first, I am not questioning your vision, what kind of character is your friend, my action this time is quite important."

"He's a little worse than me, but you can trust him." Professor Shi said in a slightly narcissistic tone.

Bai Mo nodded, hung up the phone, and appeared a thousand meters in the sky. He summoned the wind spirit and headed south. (End of this chapter)
