Chapter 114 A Chinese Ghost Story

In the beginning of winter, the mountain looks changed, the green fades and the red disappears.

It was the eighth day since Bian Bufu was buried in the coffin.

On Wolong Mountain, a bright moon hung in the distance. Near midnight, Zhou Yi walked out of the side room, and the cold moonlight sprinkled on two green bamboos.

The west wind was blowing sadly, hitting the doors and windows in the night, making a rustling sound.

He held the scroll in both hands, put it behind his back, and walked slowly around the green bamboo, his hair and clothes fluttering in the wind.

The world situation flashed through my mind, I thought of the turmoil in the martial arts world, and the love between young men and women.

Later, it turned into a book with the thoughts of the Heavenly Master written on it.

In the fantasy, two little men are fighting on the turning pages of a book.

One holds a sword, the other holds two rings.

The endless stream of techniques and secret skills eventually shattered the fantasy, turning it into a wisp of reverie that lingered silently in one's heart.

This was the most profound killing confrontation he had ever experienced.

It's a pity that the old demon Bian has a bad character and no determination to fight to the death, so it's hard to feel satisfied.

but,

The Demon Heart Chain of Bian Lao Mo is truly amazing, and it also adds a new page to his meager martial arts knowledge.

As the night deepened, Wuzhuang Temple became increasingly quiet.

The sound of the icy spring gurgling in the deep stream can be heard clearly from the mountains.

Then I heard a faint sound coming from the ancient cypress forest, as if a wild fox was foraging for food at night.

Zhou Yi went back into the house and wanted to close the windows to keep out the night wind.

Um?

He frowned slightly and looked towards the outside of the temple.

He still caught a very slight sound of wind.

However, the disciples of the dojo who were on night watch were completely unaware of what was happening.

He picked up the candle, placed it on the wooden candlestick, turned around and sat on the soft bed, sitting cross-legged in meditation.

On the scripture cabinet not far away, there is a hollow incense burner with a little flame and floating smoke, which emits a fruity and peaceful aroma.

A gust of wind blew, the window paper fluttered, and the half-closed window slowly opened.

The wind blew away the fragrance, and the moonlight came in, casting a faint and beautiful shadow, which just covered half of Zhou Yi's cheek.

The shadow swayed slightly, disturbing his mind.

Zhou Yi had to look between the windows.

I saw a figure in white lying on the window. She bent her legs slightly and lifted her skirt, allowing people to see her snow-white, slender calves and crystal-clear jade feet.

She tied up her shiny black hair with her left hand, and a comb appeared in her right hand. The night breeze helped her lift her hair lightly, and she combed her hair with self-pity and infinite sadness.

While combing her hair, she stared deeply at the young man on the couch with her elf-like eyes.

With such a scene and the charm brought by such peerless beauty, who in the world can resist it?

Just like the scholar in the strange story book, he knew about the story of A Chinese Ghost Story, but he also wanted to have a dream in Wushan.

Kanan stared into Zhou Yi's eyes, and their eyes met.

Perhaps the Heavenly Master was extremely restless and used all the spiritual skills he had learned throughout his life.

but,

Even if his eyes were not empty, there was still some appreciation in them.

He is truly the coldest man in the Sui Dynasty.

Kanan put away the comb and waved her hand toward the window.

The night wind suddenly grew stronger, and a piece of green bamboo leaf was sucked between two fingers by the power of the devil.

She just looked at Zhou Yi straight like that, putting the bamboo leaves on her thin red lips.

The hair was blown by the wind, and strands of it covered her cheeks.

She held the leaf in her mouth, stretched it into a crescent shape with her fingertips, and blew gently.

It is not the mellow sound of a bamboo flute, nor the mournful sound of a pottery xun, but rather the crisp sound of green grass bark, as if a mountain stream suddenly falls from a crack in the rocks, and the ending tone is still stained with the astringent taste of bamboo leaves.

Kankan used the power of the devil to pull this vivid sound into Zhou Yi's ears.

As if to say,

This youthful song is played only for you.

Zhou Yi seemed to be hallucinating, and an inexplicable sound rang in his mind:

"The road of life is like a long road of beautiful dreams. In this world, how many directions can beautiful dreams take?"

The admiration on his face grew stronger.

The candlelight and incense in the house are jumping, as if dancing.

Just when Zhou Yi was in high spirits, the elf girl in the night suddenly stopped talking.

She stared at the handsome young face and asked in an infinitely charming voice:

"Young Emperor, is that you?"

Her demonic energy has always been connected to her spiritual acupoints, and her spirit has been expanded to the extreme under the fluctuations of space.

As long as the other party has any mental flaws, she will definitely see through it.

Unfortunately, she only saw a slightly confused face.

Like he didn't understand what she was saying.

How could Kankan be willing to give up?

She shook the space and her figure flashed like lightning, even faster than the demons in the storybooks.

The jade feet stepped onto the bed and came to Zhou Yi.

She leaned over and whispered in his ear:

"You have already mastered the Dao Heart Planting Demon Technique. You are the most talented person in our Saint Sect throughout history. I admire you so much. I have not told anyone this secret..."

She moved closer, and the hot breath she exhaled fanned his cheek.

"Saint Emperor, I will keep this secret and help you unify the two factions and six paths of the Holy Sect. I will be your caring little demon girl by your side, okay?"

Kankan seemed so weak and boneless, she fell into Zhou Yi's arms.

The elf-like eyes are tender and affectionate, gazing at you with deep love.

No one in the world can resist such temptation.

but

The coldest man in the Sui Dynasty would never bow his head and submit to a witch.

"What are you talking about?"

Zhou Yi raised his hand and pushed her aside from his arms: "Don't disturb my practice."

Kanan took his hand and lay on his chest again.

While listening to his heartbeat, he said, "Saint Emperor, you killed Bian Bufu. Well done."

"He has always been thinking about me. Now that he has died under the sword of the Holy Emperor, it can be considered as a relief for me."

"Um?"

Zhou Yi asked in confusion: "Is Bian Bufu dead?"

"That's good too. The debt is settled when the person dies, which saves me from having to go after him to collect the debt later."

This time Zhou Yi didn't need to push her. Kankan floated away from his chest and looked at his expression again.

She frowned slightly, but didn't find any flaws.

Am I really worrying too much?

"You suddenly came looking for me because you suspected that I was the one who killed Bian Bufu?"

"Um."

Kankan made no secret of it: "Bian Bufu died in a lonely inn on a hilltop not long after leaving Xiangyang. This is simply too much of a coincidence."

"Given the temperament and methods of those people in Champion City, it's difficult for them to do things so meticulously."

"I prefer to believe that you did this."

Zhou Yi remained calm: "It's rare for you to show me such respect, but you've misjudged this matter."

"I've been stuck in a bottleneck lately, and have been practicing in the mountains, rarely asking about external affairs."

Kwan Kwan thought of Elder Yun's words, looked at his slightly thin figure, and sat down again.

"If it's the Dao Heart Planting Demon Method, then your skills are beneficial to my practice, which makes sense."

"In fact, you have comprehended the highest secret of the Heavenly Demon Strategy, and therefore are able to transform the Dao Demon Mysterious Art, is that right?"

Zhou Yi shook his head: "What I cultivate is Taiping Hongbao, which has nothing to do with your Demon Sect."

Kanan smiled charmingly and sat down beside him again:

"Saint Emperor, please don't lie to me. I swear not only to keep your secret, but also to help you unify the Holy Sect."

She pulled at the hem of her skirt, lifted her white and tender feet and gently shook Zhou Yi's calves, filling the room with a charming atmosphere.

"As long as the Saint Emperor doesn't mind, I will warm your bed tonight."

She seemed to be shy and lowered her head.

Zhou Yi sighed helplessly: "Miss Qian, please stop testing my Dao heart."

"You've broken my Dao skills. I won't be able to help you practice in the future."

"If I were truly the Holy Emperor you claimed I would have confessed everything to you by now."

Kanan was a little disappointed.

Zhou Yi asked, "I wonder if Queen Yin is in Xiangyang?"

"Master went to Champion City, and I came to find you."

"Is Bian Bufu so important?"

Wan Wan shook her head. "Although Uncle Bian has a bad reputation, he is a supporter of Master. Besides, if he attacks with all his strength, he is undoubtedly a contemporary martial arts master."

"After so many years of roaming the martial arts world, he suddenly died in Nanyang. It was too sudden."

"Master cannot remain indifferent."

Zhou Yi looked towards Champion City and couldn't help but ask, "I wonder what the Queen's attitude is towards my little temple?"

"Master wants to see the old Heavenly Master."

"What a pity," Zhou Yi expressed his true feelings, "my master has been wandering around, drifting without a fixed place to stay. Previously, he went to seek out Wandering Ning to discuss the Dao, but now, even I don't know where he is. Sect Master Zhu wanted to see him, but I can't fulfill his wish."

Kanan looked at him and said:

"In this case, Master's attitude will depend on how the Xieji Sect members react."

"Moreover, there are still elders in the sect who hold deep resentment towards you."

She saw a hint of hesitation on Zhou Yi's face, and suddenly smiled:

"But I can help you speak."

Zhou Yi turned around:

"Your Majesty and I have no deep hatred or grudge, so why should we fight?

Moreover, the Xieji Sect has always been a thorn in my side since they are in the Champions League. There are many times when thinking of them keeps me awake at night.

They are powerful in the Champions League and have many experts. If our two families fight in Nanyang and Xiangyang, wouldn’t the Xieji Sect be the winner? "

"Anyone can figure out the situation, but sometimes making a decision isn't just about the big picture."

Kankan snorted softly, "There are so many grudges and hatreds in the martial arts world, fierce fighting and murder. To vent the evil, it all depends on a single thought."

"That makes sense. I wonder what Miss Qian's attitude is?"

The girl's eyes were full of charm: "Then it depends on your performance."

She meditated and turned her back.

Zhou Yi looked at the beautiful figure in the moonlight and thought to himself,

In those days, Goujian slept on a bed of firewood and straw and licked bitter gall.

Today, the witch is drawing energy from me to accomplish great things. What is there to be unbearable about this little grievance?

He gathered the Xuanzhen Qi, pressed his palm on her back, and entered her hand Taiyin Lung Meridian.

Feeling this true energy, Kankan's heart trembled slightly.

As a peerless witch, although she appears to be seductive and alluring on the surface, her inner scheming is beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.

Is it really Taiping Hongbao?

She is currently practicing the Space Chapter of the Heavenly Demonic Law.

This flow of true energy entering her body made it difficult for her to ignore it, because it could connect with the hidden spirit of the devil and merge with his spirit.

She used the absorption method to steal the real substance, so she had a magical experience.

The spiritual joy made her feel like her demonic force field had become a living thing!

This is a state that she can never reach at this moment.

According to the master's teachings, only the reincarnation chapter of the demon fairy can have such power.

Kankan was afraid of going astray, so she didn't dare to go too far.

but

Once you experience this true energy, it is really difficult to let it go.

She opened her mouth slightly and looked at the cold moon outside the window.

A strange color suddenly flashed in his deep eyes.

After two cups of tea, Kanan suddenly used her power when Zhou Yi was caught off guard!

Following his strength, he used the invisible force of the Heavenly Demonic Art to steal the Heavenly Demonic Qi along his arm and invade Zhou Yi's body.

In an instant.

The demonic energy in Zhou Yi's Ren and Du meridians shrank rapidly and hid in the Zhiyang acupoint.

This powerful and pure demonic energy of Kankan, after initially entering his Ren and Du meridians, was stolen by his Tanzhong Life and Death Acupoint and completely absorbed into it.

A bean-sized bead of sweat slid down the back of his forehead.

The witch is too cunning,

Just a hair's breadth away and the truth would have been revealed.

When Cihang's sword energy enters other people's bodies, it can see through the air and see the truth, not to mention that everyone has the same source of demonic energy and is close to each other.

Zhou Yi immediately withdrew his palm, looking angry.

"Miss Qian, you are disobeying the rules and trying to steal my treasure. Let's draw a clear line between us from now on."

Wan Wan turned around and said, "Don't be angry, I'm just curious and want to know if what you're practicing is the Dao Heart Demon."

"I have no interest in your curiosity. I have no business dealing with the Holy Emperor or the Evil Emperor. If the Yingui Sect truly wishes to become my enemy, I will fight them to the end."

Zhou Yi was too lazy to listen to her explanation and pointed at the window:

"Go ahead and go back to where you came from."

His expression was cold, and his eyes were as cold as a thousand-year-old ice, which made Kankan feel cold all over.

She had never met anyone who was willing to treat her like this.

And she felt it deeply.

The other party's anger was no disguise.

In other words, he was truly indifferent to his own unrivaled charm.

However, Hongbao Qi is of great use to her and she must not give it up.

Two thoughts flashed through my mind at that moment.

One is to threaten and force them by using the name of the Yingui Sect.

Zhou Yi is worried about something, and he will think of Queen Yin.

In addition, since I knew his character well, I dared to expose my back to him so that I could practice with peace of mind without worrying about him suddenly launching a sneak attack.

If he is forced into submission, perhaps he will give in.

Kankan is extremely powerful and does things as she pleases, so naturally she has such a strong personality.

But when the words were on the tip of her tongue, she saw the young man in front of her looking at her with a cold brow, his brows filled with anger, like a sword coming out of the abyss.

The tough words softened instantly, and one idea was abandoned in favor of the "second one".

She acted weak and became the beautiful woman who seduced the scholar in the storybook.

He leaned forward softly, completely defenseless.

Her slender, snow-white arms were so charming in the blend of candlelight and moonlight. She gently hooked her arms around Zhou Yi's neck and leaned close to him.

Weak said:

“I know I was wrong.”

"I just want to get to know you better. Don't be angry. Give me another chance, okay, Brother Yi~~"

The little witch's voice trembled, and even her eyes trembled.

Without waiting for Zhou Yi to speak, she raised her little foot, and in a flash of white shadow, she had already crawled into the quilt.

"what you do?"

"I'll warm your bed. Even though you're not the Saint Emperor of my Saint Sect, can you be someone else's Saint Emperor?"

Zhou Yi chuckled and said that it would be a miracle if he believed her.

However, since the witch had surrendered, he still had to take this step.

He was angry, so he pushed the cover aside and crawled in.

The moment he came in, Kanan slipped out and came back to the window where she had been sitting before like a ghost.

She took out the comb again.

Zhou Yi had an expression that said you can’t afford to play with him: “Didn’t we agree to warm the bed?”

Under the moonlight, she had a smile in her eyes. She combed her hair and spoke into Zhou Yi's ears.

"The bed has been warmed up, Brother Yi should go to bed early."

"I'll take care of the elders of our sect. Master, considering my opinion, won't look for you for the time being."

"I'm leaving now. I'll find you to practice next time."

"Um"

"Your skills have improved. I am very satisfied this time."

Kanan blew gently, and the two candles in the room were extinguished.

As her figure passed by the two green bamboos, she used the Heavenly Demonic Magic to carefully close the window.

Not long after, in the darkness, Zhou Yi sat cross-legged in meditation.

Take out a trace of Heavenly Demonic Qi from the Dan Zhong acupoint and let it flow through the Hand Taiyin Lung Meridian.

After a while, this trace of demonic energy dissipated.

However, this also brought him great help in studying the secret arts of the devil.

Zhou Yi reviewed the situation carefully and indeed noticed a flaw.

But it is extremely difficult for people involved in the situation to see through it and make bold associations.

But the witch is very smart and we have to be on guard against her.

He took a few deep breaths to calm himself down.

Tonight is extremely dangerous. If the Demon Sect discovers my identity, the consequences will be unimaginable.

The situation in Nanyang will also develop in a direction that he cannot predict.

Then I thought again.

If this little vixen really found out, would she keep it a secret?

Kankan wasn't that devoted to the Yin Gui Sect. The elders of the older generation didn't accept her and even sidelined her. However, she definitely wouldn't hide it from the Yin Queen.

No matter what Queen Yin's attitude is, Zhou Yi doesn't want to deal with her for the time being.

Even if ten sides are not defeated, they are still far less dangerous than one Yin Queen.

Recalling the enchanting and captivating charm of the little witch.

Many of the famous masters in this world have become bootlickers, which is embarrassing.

This Heavenly Master is determined to become the last fig leaf of the Sui Dynasty.

That night, after Zhou Yi calmed down, he fell asleep peacefully.

In the dream, there were some intermittent and heartbreaking images flashing by.

After chatting with the little witch, he can also travel in his dreams.

Champion City, that's bad.

Garuda Palace.

The chaotic strong wind caused hundreds of pine oil torches to flicker violently.

"Old witch, don't go too far!"

Mr. Zhou sighed that he was both happy and annoyed recently because of the strange changes in the Coffin Palace, and was concentrating on studying the loopholes.

Unexpectedly, the Queen of Yin suddenly came to kill him.

Not only did he not give face to the Shengji Sect, but he also extinguished the inspiration that he had just generated.

At this moment, he was burning with rage and spoke without restraint. He roared in a deep voice, and the evil spirit in his body swept towards the sky!

There were more than a dozen corpses lying on the ground, all of them were masters who had been possessed by the true devil.

But facing the Yingui Zongzun, they didn't even have the chance to burn themselves to death.

The top of Garuda Palace.

The woman with her face half covered raised her palm to break Zhou Laotan's killing palm. She walked leisurely on the glazed tiles, with a cold crescent moon imprinted on her back.

The clear light surrounds her, which is just right for her.

Her momentum reached an unimaginable level.

Zhu Can had already mobilized a large army, and in a short period of time, thousands of people had gathered in the palace.

The number of people was growing, and they were about to surround the man on the top of the palace.

"Where's the Evil Emperor?"

Her tone remained flat.

"Can you see the Holy Emperor whenever you want?"

You Niaojuan descended from the sky with an extremely unpleasant voice, having already taken out the one-legged bronze figure. Emperor Ding and Jin Huanzhen appeared one after another.

The masters of the Coffin Palace are also gathering.

Even the leader of the eight great masters of the Demon Sect showed a hint of caution at this moment.

"Old witch, you don't think you can still hunt me down even though you're here, do you?"

You Niaojuan grinned grimly, but when he thought of his own tragic experience of jumping into the Three Gorges, the smile disappeared and he looked angry.

He wanted to mock him again by calling him "Shi Zhixuan".

But after thinking about it, I decided to give up this kind of performance art.

It would be terrible if this old witch ignored everyone else and just fought with him.

Zhu Yuyan ignored him and said, "Since the Evil Emperor has already mastered the Dao Heart Demon Cultivation Technique, why is he hiding here and there?"

The four of them are a unique kind of demon, unrivaled in ancient and modern times, so they are naturally proud.

Of course they could understand when the old witch talked about the Evil Emperor.

You Niaojuan noticed Zhu Yuyan's misunderstanding and immediately came up with a clever plan.

"What do you mean by hiding here and there?"

"The Holy Emperor's Dharma hasn't reached perfection yet, so he's naturally focused on practicing. Wait until he comes out of seclusion, and then you'll see who's hiding."

Emperor Ding shook his Tongtian Crown and said in an extremely cold tone, "Queen Yin, if I don't want the Yin Gui Sect to be liquidated by our sect, I advise you not to disturb us again."

Zhu Yuyan ignored the threats and looked at the masters with a sudden and charming smile: "Is the highest secret complete?"

"That means you won't be able to leave for the rest of your life."

"You fart!"

Zhou Lao sighed at being questioned, and his anger grew even greater. He angrily shouted:

"The ultimate secret of martial arts is right before our eyes, within easy reach. How can you, an outsider, understand the secret?"

"Wait until you are qualified to face me alone before you say such things."

Above the palace, these cold and plain words struck like a heavy hammer.

What makes people feel frustrated is

This is an ironclad fact that cannot be refuted.

The four great masters of Xieji Sect were so angry that they could not refute with words, but they burst out with powerful momentum.

The palace lanterns were all over the palace, but they miraculously remained lit.

This kind of ability to control strength and skill can only make people sigh in despair.

Four forces, like a mountain torrent, rushed to the top of the palace.

The glazed tiles were overturned, and the light robe of the Queen of Yin fluttered in the wind. She was calm all the time, like a lonely elf under the moon, stepping lightly on the ridge of the lion-shaped roof. Her eyes were stained with the coldness of the moonlight, and with the rhythm of the devil, she broke the momentum with her voice and asked:

"You were the ones who killed Bian Bufu?"

Mr. Zhou sighed angrily and sneered:

"The Yin Gui Demon is hidden, his methods are sparse, and he only has lust for pleasure and desire. His martial arts are empty. He is just a decayed body, no match for my pure demonic power. He deserves death."

“This matter.”

"It was you, the Yingui Sect, who first sought an opportunity, destroyed my charity cemetery, and then gathered in Yanyang, plotting against our sect. How could I allow you to control me?"

Zhu Yuyan was very clear about the matter of Yan Yang, and the Yingui Sect did not intend to take action against the Xieji Sect.

It was for a small Taoist temple.

However, the hatred has been formed, so why would she lower herself to explain the misunderstanding?

Just as she was about to ask about Bian Bufu's matter, Zhu Yuyan suddenly saw an acquaintance.

Thinking of the strange method Yunxia had described, and seeing it with his own eyes, he frowned for the first time.

"Pharmacist Lin?"

Pharmacist Lin walked out from the Red Shadow Corps and greeted, "Zongzun, you are not mistaken."

"Your brother is looking for you."

Zhu Yuyan asked, "How did you become like this?"

Pharmacist Lin revealed a hint of joy from the bottom of his heart:

"If a person's spiritual energy can be cultivated to an infinite level, even this void can be broken through."

"Lin has now heard of the Dao and is diligently pursuing it. I would like to ask the Sect Master to tell my brother to come here and discuss the Dao with me."

He smiled, and Yuwen Wudi beside him opened the coffin:

"Since the Zongzun is here, why not enter the coffin and have a chat."

After hearing this, Zhou Laotan, Jin Huanzhen and the other three all laughed.

"What the Pharmacist said is true"

"Queen Yin, why don't you delve into the highest secrets with us?"

Zhu Yuyan didn't say anything, but suddenly her figure flashed.

The four great masters of the Xieji Sect had been prepared and attacked together, with an overwhelming evil spirit.

But the Queen of Yin did not resist head-on. She performed the Magical Dance of the Heavenly Demon. Her figure flashed apart and she used the Heavenly Demon's great power to steal power. She passed through the four great masters and the flashing shadows of the Heavenly Demon merged into one.

He took a step forward and came in front of Pharmacist Lin.

She stretched out her hand and pulled Pharmacist Lin into her palm. The next moment, all his meridians were blocked.

The terrifying force field brought by the seventeenth level of the Heavenly Demonic Art made all those who besieged her feel as if space was collapsing.

That feeling lasts a lifetime, and you will lose yourself and be unable to move forward.

Before Yuwen Wudi could react, Queen Yin grabbed Lin Pharmacist, stepped on his shoulders, and leaped out of the palace.

Yuwen Wudi flew backwards, knocking down a group of soldiers.

Zhou Laotan and the others cursed and chased after him.

That night, all the soldiers of Champion City were mobilized.

No matter how powerful Queen Yin is, her strength will eventually run out, so she cannot face the heroes in the palace.

But she used all her skills, and among the four people from the Xieji Sect, only You Niaojuan could barely catch up with her by using the Nixing Sect's unique skill, the Shunni Escape Method.

It was with this method that he escaped into the Three Gorges.

But even if he had a hundred courages, he would not dare to chase the Queen of Yin alone.

If Queen Yin wants to leave, how many people in the world can stop her?

Old Zhou sighed and stopped at the top of Champion City, listening to the rushing water. Ghost fire flickered in his eyes as he stared at the direction where Queen Yin left.

He suddenly struck the moat with his palm, causing a black splash in the water under the moonlight.

"Zhu Yuyan is going too far!"

Jin Huanzhen patted his shoulder:

"Old Sigh, don't be angry. When we first met her, we could only flee in panic."

“Now, a lot has changed.”

“Not bad, but still not enough.”

Old Zhou sighed with a determined look, "I will endure hardships and practice hard in seclusion. Sooner or later, I will stand before this old witch and make her dare not act arrogantly."

Emperor Ding asked, "Have you figured out the matter of the Coffin Palace?"

You Niaojuan's voice was unpleasant: "Why are so many people losing control all of a sudden?"

Zhou Lao sighed with a deep expression at first, then he laughed: "Someone wants to plot against us."

"Some time ago, a large number of people from the Jianghu suddenly flocked to the city. Although I found it strange, I didn't take it seriously."

"Now that I think about it, quite a few of them were bewitched, thinking they had secret techniques that could break my True Demonic Thoughts, and they attempted to emulate that abominable Qiu Qianbo."

"Although a number of people ran away due to the unusual movement, it's not a big deal."

"These guys are taking advantage of me, and I'm taking advantage of them."

Emperor Ding asked, "Have you figured out the reason?"

"Almost."

Old Zhou sighed and said, "If it weren't for that old witch interrupting me, I might have figured it all out."

"Most of these people are related to the Great Ming Zun Cult."

"I think it's similar to the way Shanmu controls people's hearts, but you think you can hide it from me? You're just dreaming. It's just the right material for me to use to uncover the secrets of Xiaoyaochai."

You Niaojuan looked at Zhou Lao with a strange look and sighed, "Things are different now. Junior brother has made me look at him with new eyes."

A rare trace of emotion crossed the Emperor's zombie face: "We have fought for the Holy Emperor's relics for so many years, but we never imagined this day would come."

Mr. Zhou sighed, "It was right then, and it's right now."

"There is only one Holy Emperor relic. For the sake of martial arts cultivation, we must grab it."

"Now we have changed a path. It is beyond the power of one person to fully explore. We need to work together and research together."

All four of them nodded.

Among the two sects and six paths of the Demonic Sect, the Xieji Sect is the least united, but now they have become a united front.

This is just as different as their other kind of demon.

"The methods of the Great Kind Mother may not be inferior to those of the old witch. We must be careful."

"This championship city is very important to us."

Without the tens of thousands of troops in Champion City, they wanted to find a quiet place to study, and Black Stone Charity House was a lesson for them.

"We want peace, not war."

"It would be best if all of Nanyang didn't fight."

"Let Zhu Can behave himself."

While they were discussing, a ferocious man in golden armor also jumped onto the top of the city wall.

"Masters, where is that beauty?!"

Zhu Can was stunned in the palace just now. He never expected that there would be such a beautiful woman in the world.

He had just strictly forbade the archers to shoot, for fear that the beauty would be shot to death.

At this moment, Zhu Can's mind was completely filled with the extraordinary appearance of that man.

Mr. Zhou sighed and put his arm around his shoulders:

"She's gone, but since you like her so much, it won't be difficult for me to capture her for you once my magical power reaches perfection."

"good!!"

Zhu Can only has martial arts skills, but without his external brain Zhu Mei, he enjoys eating any cake.

"When I become emperor, I will make her empress."

Zhou Lao sighed and said to the Ogre King, "This Sect Master will definitely help you achieve your wish."

"But before that, you have to change some of your strategies."

"Master, please speak?"

Jin Huanzhen chimed in, "You need to relax the atmosphere in the city and stop the random killing. This will attract more people here. We can exchange martial arts with others, and it's a mutually beneficial exchange. This will be more sustainable and more efficient."

Mr. Zhou sighed and nodded: "Not bad."

He snorted, "If I get it, I'm lucky. If I lose it, I'm doomed. I also took out the True Demonic Thoughts. No one can blame anyone else."

"I'd like to know if there are other people like Qiu Qianbo in the world."

Zhu Can certainly understood what they meant: "Okay."

"Laba is my birthday. From now on, I will invite all the masters to the Laba banquet. I will discuss various martial arts with the masters."

The emperor sighed and everyone praised it.

…

It was the twelfth day since Bian Bufu was buried in the coffin.

Xiangyang City, Qian family’s Zangqing Pavilion.

Wen Caiting's face was unfriendly: "Pharmacist, are you really not going to say anything?"

"certainly."

Pharmacist Lin smiled and said, "I won't reveal any secrets related to Sect Master Zhou.

If you want to discuss the truth with me, I can talk to you. If you find my knowledge too shallow, you can go to Champion City.

"Then let me ask you, did you kill Bian Bufu?"

Pharmacist Lin said, "I didn't kill him, but Senior Brother Bian didn't want to be buried that day, so it's normal for him to die."

"And then?"

Wen Caiting asked, "Did you guys attack Senior Brother Bian afterwards?"

"You need to ask Sect Master Zhou. I'm not always by your side."

Pharmacist Lin said, "Most of the time, I am in the state of practicing."

Qian Duguan, Yunxia and others looked at Pharmacist Lin and felt it was weird.

Wen Caiting couldn't help but sneer, "What's the point of you practicing martial arts? You're just helping others."

"That's wrong."

Pharmacist Lin's eyes lit up. "You don't understand my profound art. I can only tell you that everyone has the opportunity to transcend. Therefore, I don't hold much resentment towards Sect Master Zhou. What he said about the Dao was not false."

If you don't believe me, you can go find Gang Leader Qiu Qianbo."

Yun Caiwen asked, "Where's Wei Wei?"

"He's dead."

"What?!"

Wen Caiting didn't understand: "He was captured just like you, so why did you live and he died? His skills are much higher than yours."

Pharmacist Lin said, "He is obsessed with medical classics and poison books, rather than martial arts. It is useless for Sect Master Zhou to keep him around, so he will naturally die."

"Don't look at me like that. Although I work hard for my brother, my determination to fight might be even stronger than yours."

"When Master Pi accepted my brother as his disciple, he saw that I lacked talent, so I begged him for days before he finally taught me. But what I learned was disorganized, not the true teaching."

"In this regard, Master Pi is not as good as Sect Master Zhou."

"Although I was captured that day, when I arrived at Champion City, Sect Leader Zhou did not use force. Instead, he discussed the Dao seriously and devoted his entire life to it. I am in this situation now only because I lack talent."

Everyone was indifferent and looked at him as if he were a madman.

But in my heart, there was a touch of emotion.

Because at this moment, Pharmacist Lin has become clean and clear.

He is still the same person, but without any other interests, he has become a martial arts fanatic on the edge of a cliff.

Pharmacist Lin left his chair and stood up to ask:

"Zongzun, are you going to kill me?"

Wen Caiting sneered: "You have gone crazy and become a lackey of the Xieji Sect. It is useless to live in such a miserable state. Why bother asking the Sect Master again?"

She was about to take action, but the Queen of Yin, who had been sitting at the top, waved her hand and told her to leave.

"Go ahead. I hope you can become Qiu Qianbo."

The Queen of Yin's faint words echoed through the hall.

Pharmacist Lin understood that Queen Yin had fought for her last chance.

He bowed with both hands, and bowed deeply: "If Lin leaves Champion City, I will come to pay a visit to the Zongzun again."

Once the Queen of Yin spoke, no one would block her way.

Pharmacist Lin returned from Xiangyang and headed towards Guanjun City again.

"Master, is he also cultivating the Dao Heart Demon?"

“Not pure.”

The Queen of Yin had already explored Pharmacist Lin's meridians. "But this strange evil spirit is pure and heavy, and even has a hint of mysterious energy. Even I have never heard of it."

"Give orders to have someone keep an eye on Qiu Qianbo's movements. I want to see him."

Although everyone was shocked, they quickly responded.

The Queen of Yin looked at her beloved disciple and said, "Nian'er, where is the old Heavenly Master?"

Kanan came back to her senses after reading all the information she had received from Champion City:

"That young Taoist priest said that his master went to look for Ning Daoqi, and then disappeared without a trace."

Even the Queen of Yin began to worry when she heard the three words "Ning Daoqi".

The titles of the three great masters are not exaggerated.

"What are you going to do about Nanyang?"

Kankan said respectfully, "For now, I agree with Uncle Yun's opinion."

Wen Caiting was somewhat dissatisfied after hearing this.

But in front of Queen Yin, she didn't dare say much.

Queen Yin thought for a moment, then said to Wen Caiting, "Inform the other friends in the two sects and the Six Paths about the matter of Champion City."

"yes."

Wen Caiting responded and then said, "Master, do you want to let the people at Cihang Jingzhai and Jingnian Zen Temple know as well?"

"No need, they already knew."

The Queen of Yin was also somewhat convinced: "The people of the Xieji Sect are really unscrupulous in what they do."

Kankan Bai Qing'er, who was standing by, looked puzzled.

The Queen couldn't help but laugh. "That night in Champion City, I saw monks wearing the robes of the Pure Mind Monastery. They looked just like Pharmacist Lin."

"It seems that the Buddhist Zen power is also no match for the Supreme Demon."

"No matter how bad the Xieji Sect is, they are still members of our Holy Sect."

"Now that they are comprehending the Dao and cultivating demons, Fan Qinghui and the four old monks will definitely not be able to sit still."

“…”

Soon, everyone in the lobby went out to do business with strange moods.

Only the master and his disciple were left.

"Xian'er, do you think highly of that young Taoist priest?"

"yes."

Kankan said, "My disciple discovered that Taiping Hongbao also cultivates the Twelve True Classics, which is very similar to the Heavenly Demonic Art. The Heavenly Demon Strategy's Dao Heart Seedling Demon splits into the Dao and Demon schools, which shows that Taoist martial arts are also related to the Heavenly Demon Strategy."

"This Taiping Hongbao is known as the fifth strange book. It is of great benefit to my cultivation of the Heavenly Demonic Art."

Upon hearing this, Queen Yin just nodded slightly without any emotion.

She had been deceived and lost her pure Yin essence, so it was impossible for her to advance further with the Heavenly Demonic Art.

"Your talent is no less than my master's. You have the potential to cultivate the Heavenly Demonic Law to the highest level. Don't be too obsessed with external things."

"in addition."

The Queen frowned slightly, her eyes stern: "I saw the portrait of the young Taoist priest, he is better than my mortal enemy."

"You can't get yourself into this."

Kanan understood what her master was worried about.

She nodded immediately: "Xian'er only wanted the technique, and she also deceived his heart. She will not leave anything behind, so Master, don't worry."

The Queen said no more.

In fact, this sentence was also mentioned because of her own experience. She is quite confident in her beloved disciple.

Kanan glanced sideways at the sky outside the house.

A cold face that I had never seen before once again appeared in my mind.

…

On Wolonggang, Zhou Yi was writing furiously.

It reads:

"Sea melons are tasteless, sandy, and fishy, ​​making them the hardest to please. However, they are naturally strong and must never be cooked in clear soup."

"You must check for melons with small thorns, soak them to remove the sand and mud, and then boil them in broth three times."

“…”

The so-called sea cucumber is sea cucumber.

After he wrote the recipe, he drew pictures and described the process in detail.

After everything was completed, it was handed over to Xu Xingzhi, who was asked to take it to Chen Ruiyang of the Dangyang Horse Caravan.

He didn't want to be so diligent, but Military Advisor Xu kept urging him.

This virtual military advisor is even more vulgar than Chen Laomou, the one who makes clothes and chairs.

He often talks about some "big plan".

It's really speechless.

It's just gossip about food between gourmets, adding interest to the picture, like the lotus flowers in the pond, pure white and clean, what's the big deal?

Zhou Yi wrote another letter to Xiao Fenghuang.

The letter was several pages long, asking about everything and wanting to talk about everything.

Now that Guanjun and Xiangyang are both stable, Zhou Yi can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

However, it was the twenty-fourth day of the Bian Coffin calendar.

His peaceful life was broken again.

Chen Laomou and Xu Xingzhi went up the mountain together. The three of them talked about the affairs of Jianghuai from the evening until late at night.

It turned out that You Hongda learned about Li Zitong's shady dealings from the grain incident in Runan County.

He cooperated with Meng Rang, but secretly sold rice to Meng Rang and made a lot of money from him.

You Hongda knew that Meng Rang was suspicious, so he sent someone to report the matter and the evidence to Meng Rang, causing chaos in Xuyi.

The alliance between Meng Rang and Li Zitong collapsed in an instant.

After Li Zitong and Meng Rang broke up, he found Du Fuwei, who was doing well. Although Du Fuwei listened to Zhou Yi's words and was wary of Li Zitong.

But there was another unexpected variable.

The general completely abandoned Meng Rang and pursued Li Zitong straight to Liuhe.

Du Fuwei cooperated with Li Zitong to fight Lai Zheng. In this hasty battle, the two sides established trust in each other.

Lao Du felt that Li Zitong was brave in battle and a righteous man, and seemed to be able to get along well.

Okay, you be my son.

If you can’t be a son, be a Miao Haichao.

However, he didn't expect that when he attacked for the second time, his good brother Li Zitong, who he had only known for a few days, would stab him in the back.

He kidnapped some Jianghuai Army members and fled to Hailing.

Du Fuwei was injured and the army was in chaos.

The Jianghuai Army was about to collapse, but Li Jing led the navy along the Huai River to attack the rear and burned dozens of large ships.

Lai Zheng was worried about being attacked from both sides, so he retreated to the north bank of the Huai River. Du Fuwei finally managed to stabilize his position with the help of Li Jing's surprise attack.

When people feel lost and regretful, they are most likely to think of the person who reminded them in the past.

I regret even more why I didn't listen to the advice.

Especially this time, I was saved by this man's deployment.

If it weren't for Li Jing's troops, Du Fuwei couldn't imagine what the fate of the Jianghuai Army would have been.

Therefore.

"Old Du is coming to see me?"

"Yes."

Xu Xingzhi and Chen Laomou said in unison:

"Du Fuwei, the Jianghuai Overlord, is coming to Wolong Mountain to invite General Zhou."
