Chapter 65

Chu Jinglan stuffed a bag of snacks into Xiao Mo's hand and said, "Wait for me."

The snacks are also spiritual food, of course. They are monster jerky. They smell a lot like spiced beef jerky, and of course, they taste like it too.

All right, Xiao Mo put away his surprised expression, waited for Chu Jinglan to solve the problem at hand, and then he chose a good spot in the yard to watch the show with the dried meat in his hand.

Yue Ming said "again", which means they had at least fought once while they were studying. It was so fast, he is worthy of being the fastest fighting chicken in Yingyue Sect.

Chu Jinglan's current residence is extremely spacious. It has a five-story attic with a spacious martial arts training ground in front. The back garden is a place for rest and sightseeing. There are winding corridors, pavilions, waterside terraces, and some small houses. It is up to the owner to decide how to use it.

Once the defense formation of Lianwuping is opened, they can do whatever harm they want.

Xiao Mo ate some snacks while watching his 19-year-old uncle beating up a 60-year-old kid from the spectator seat.

Yue Ming's swordsmanship is also very unique. He focuses on momentum and is unstoppable when he strikes. He is fierce in both coming and going. His spiritual root is fire and he is also like fire. But if he collides with Chu Jinglan, who is a block of black ice, no matter how strong the spiritual energy is, he will be frozen into a sculpture on the spot.

There are many sword practitioners in Yingyue Sect. Neither of them used any other magic weapons, only swords and spiritual energy. It ended faster than Xiao Mo had imagined. Chu Jinglan's sword tip stopped at Yueming's throat, and he could clearly see Yueming's Adam's apple moving slightly due to tension.

The winner has been decided.

Chu Jinglan drew his sword in shock, and Yue Ming immediately said, "Come again!"

Chu Jinglan: "No more fighting today."

Yueming: "Then tomorrow——"

"Okay, but only once a day from now on." Chu Jinglan turned and left, "The door is over there. I won't see you off."

Yue Ming held the sword, still not satisfied, and wanted to do it again, but after thinking it over again, he felt that competing every day was also a good deal, so he put away the sword: "Okay, it's a deal."

After he left, Chu Jinglan raised his hand and closed the courtyard door with the wind. Xiao Mo held a piece of dried meat and pointed at the half-person-high book on the stone table in the air: "Are you interested in the dialogue book too?"

Unexpectedly, Chu Lan said in surprise: "No, I'm not interested yet. I plan to find more and take a look."

This answer really surprised Xiao Mo. He hummed, "If you're not interested, don't force yourself. I'm just looking for some fun. If the script doesn't work, you can try something else."

How can you force a hobby to happen? But Chu Jinglan wanted to find the answer from the storybook, not to have fun.

There was still a lot of jerky in his hand that he hadn't finished, so Xiao Mo put it down. To be on the safe side, he used telepathy to talk to Chu Jinglan.

"Fen Xiu came to test me again today. He wants to kill us. What he said is definitely not a joke."

During the competition, they were still hoping that Fen Xiu wouldn't think about them, but now it was a foregone conclusion that they were being targeted, and there would be no good ending if Fen Xiu became interested in them. Even in the bloody original novel, he was the biggest villain in Su Baimo's subsequent attack, because although Fen Xiu also slept with Su Baimo, it was really cruel when he tortured him.

Chu Jinglan's expression froze.

Xiao Mo: "Given the strength of his spiritual consciousness, I definitely cannot plant a 'thought' in his sea of ​​consciousness at the moment. Chu Jiao's hand will not work on him."

Chu Jinglan took over the conversation: "In terms of cultivation, according to records, the Demon Lord of the Demon Realm is at the peak of the Mahayana stage."

Xiao Mo nodded: "Yes, although he pretended to be a Yuan baby, he would definitely not pretend again at the critical moment of life and death. If we want to fight back, the only place we can choose is the secret realm that suppresses cultivation, or in Yingyue Sect."

In the secret realm that suppresses cultivation, when everyone's level is equal, there will be a chance to fight in person. In the Yingyue Sect, the Sect Master can arrive at any time and there is security guarantee.

But they couldn't just run to the clan leader without any substantial evidence and say that "Alie" was a spy. If you beat him to death, his true colors would be exposed, and people would easily misunderstand that the child had lost his mind.

The two began to think seriously about solutions and came up with many ideas, but they all encountered problems in the detailed stage and were overturned one by one.

Before the real work was done, Chu Jinglan certainly had no intention of reading the storybook. On the second day, Xiao Mo prepared to go to Fen Xiu in the form of a spirit to look around and get some inspiration.

Inner disciples can go to the Affairs Hall to take on tasks and earn spirit stones. When Xiao Mo found the person, Fen Xiu had just come out of the Affairs Hall, but he did not take any tasks and seemed to be just taking a walk.

There were actually two or three disciples from the Yingyue Sect accompanying him and coming out together.

Someone said to Fen Xiu: "Junior brother, don't take what some people said just now to heart. Anyway, I think that people are divided into good and bad, and demons are also divided into good and bad. It all depends on the individual differences. How can you generalize?"

Another person said, "That's right. The lesson of the Lord's departure was that he didn't have enough to eat. If we were willing to accept them, there wouldn't be any of the things that happened later."

It seems that these disciples are the friendly faction towards the demons in Yingyue Sect. As long as you don't do anything against the law, they will treat you equally regardless of whether you are a human or a demon.

Unfortunately, they don’t know that the person in front of them is a real devil.

Fen Xiu just smiled, with comments of "naive" and "idiot" hidden in his eyes. The more the disciples beside him talked to him, the more he seemed to hear something interesting, and his smile deepened.

However, the disciples only traveled for a distance before they separated from Fenxiu. Fenxiu returned to his own residence, where he was arranged to live in the ordinary residence for inner disciples, a small house with a small courtyard, adjacent to the houses of other disciples.

After entering the room, he closed the door and cast a barrier. Xiao Mo then watched his body shape and facial features change, and his aura rose steadily. After a while, "Alie" disappeared, and a tall and handsome Mahayana demon stood in the room.

Fen Xiu twisted his neck comfortably. This was his original appearance and cultivation level.

If the barrier had not been set up in advance, the fluctuations of the change in cultivation would have definitely spread out. Even though Xiao Mo was in spirit form at this moment, he could feel the oppression that was released instantly when he recovered to the Mahayana stage.

What was Fen Xiu trying to do by suddenly recovering to the Mahayana stage in the sect? Was he planning to fly to Chu Jinglan's yard and kill them?

Xiao Mo's vigilance has been raised to the highest level.

Fen Xiu concealed his aura and disappeared from the house in the blink of an eye.

If Xiao Mo had not been able to determine the direction he left based on the remaining breath of his thoughts, he would not have been able to keep up with him just by relying on speed.

The Mahayana stage is no longer just flying in the air, it is teleportation one section after another, stepping on the void, and the figure appears far away in the blink of an eye.

This is the difference between the Mahayana stage and their cultivation...

But this direction is not Tianshui Peak.

Xiao Mo couldn't see Fen Xiu's figure, so he followed his thoughts and breath all the way, and finally stopped at a place that was heavily guarded and had very rich spiritual energy.

Xiao Mo looked down from the sky and saw a purple-gold spiritual vein running across the cliff, gurgling with spiritual energy gushing out. Auspicious clouds lingered above the spiritual vein, and golden light reflected on the mountain.

Top-grade spiritual vein!

There are nine continents in the upper realm, and the big sects have no shortage of middle-grade spiritual veins, but good high-grade spiritual veins are also fiercely contested resources. Yingyue Sect has a total of twenty high-grade spiritual veins in the nine continents, and the one in the sect is of the best quality. The spiritual energy of one spiritual vein can spread to the entire sect, and it is an important treasure of the sect.

All spiritual veins have sources, just like springs have springs. Spiritual veins can only be endless because of the spiritual source. The guarding disciples are all at the level of distraction cultivation. Fen Xiu, as a rare existence in the upper realm, easily bypassed them and came all the way to the spiritual source.

At present, there has been no return to the abyss for a long time in the upper realm, and the peak of Mahayana is the highest.

When Xiao Mo arrived, he saw Fen Zheng only about thirty meters away from the Lingyuan, staring at the layers of seals outside the Lingyuan.

The spiritual source is like a purple gold gem, slowly releasing spiritual power. The spiritual vein looks like a river of light, but that is only a visual effect caused by the flow of rich spiritual power, not real river water.

The seal outside the spiritual source is not wrapped around the gem, but separates the space and is arranged ten meters away, layer by layer. It is not for suppression but for protection. Xiao Mo asked the system to scan it and knew that this seal was the work of a Mahayana period.

Fen Xiu checked for a moment and realized that touching the seal would directly attract someone at the peak of the Mahayana stage. At that time, the surrounding magic array would be activated immediately to seal the entire spiritual vein. Even if the person who came was at the Mahayana stage, he would not be able to leave immediately.

Fen Xiu gave up the plan to destroy the spiritual source and instead began to practice in a place very close to the spiritual source.

Fen Xiu: "At least it has to be a place like this, which can barely allow me to practice."

No one knows whether he occupies the spiritual veins of the Demon Realm to practice every day, but if someone tells others about this, he will be beaten.

Fen Xiu was not in a hurry and seemed to be planning to develop sustainably. He left after practicing for a while. The spiritual energy at the source was too dense. It was difficult to see any damage at this rate in a short time. Xiao Mo stared at the spiritual source and suddenly had an idea.

Xiao Mo immediately sent a message to tell Chu Jinglan his plan.

Chu Jinglan listened to what he said. Perhaps because Xiao Mo's method was too imaginative and no one else could do it except Xiao Mo, Chu Jinglan was shocked for a long time before he slowly replied: "...Good idea."

Xiao Mo smiled and said, "I think so too."

Thanks to Fen Xiu for the inspiration he got, otherwise he would not have thought of it before.

Fen Xiu had just left this place, and Xiao Mo did not rush to take action. Instead, he came here early the next day, and then easily passed through the ten-meter seal with his spiritual body.

Yes, his spiritual body did not trigger the seal at all.

Xiao Mo passed through a place that even the Mahayana stage could not pass with ease.

Then he wrapped his palm with spiritual power, raised his hand, let himself touch the spiritual source, clenched his hand, and put the spiritual source into the system package.

The spiritual source cannot be stored in a storage device because the storage device is also a kind of magical tool. If the spiritual source is put in, it will easily burst the storage device. However, the package that comes with the system does not have this problem and will not leak the spiritual source aura at all.

The package that used to be chicken ribs turned out to be so perfect at special times!

The moment the spiritual source disappeared, the sealing shield of the spiritual vein was immediately activated, and the leader of Yingyue Sect suddenly opened his eyes, and used the formation to teleport to the spiritual vein in the blink of an eye. He was fast, but Xiao Mo was faster than him.

Xiao Mo went straight back to the sea of ​​consciousness.

The whole process was completed in one go, and no one else could have achieved it except Xiao Mo.

The sect master looked at the source of the empty noise in astonishment, and immediately ordered several elders: "Immediately activate the second level of the sect protection formation, and no disciple is allowed to leave the sect without permission!"

In fact, the second level of the sect protection was also sealed, so people outside could not come in and people inside could not go out. The elders gave orders and executed them quickly.

To be able to steal the spiritual source without any triggering, there must be someone in the Mahayana stage who sneaked into their territory quietly, and the other party also had treacherous means. Although the sect leader was anxious and angry, he was very clear-headed: "Tell the disciples that it was a drill, don't let them panic."

The elders' voices were relatively calm: "So, Sect Master, what happened?"

The leader sighed and said, "Don't be afraid of what I'm going to say next."

Elders: "We are the elders of Yingyue Sect. We are not afraid."

Sect Leader: "The spiritual source of the spiritual vein has been stolen."

The elders who just said they were not afraid: …

Elders:! ??? Please say it again! ?

*

With the help of the sect protection formation, the sect master's consciousness directly enveloped the entire Yingyue Sect. If the aura of the spiritual veins leaked a little, it would definitely not escape his perception. However, even so, there was still no gain for a long while, which made the sect master anxious.

Their sect's best, top-grade spiritual veins cannot be lost just like that! !

However, after a long while of anxiety, the elder in the main pavilion suddenly came to report that a letter was found in the hall, saying that the thief was A Lie from the demon clan. He was a spy of the demon clan and had changed his cultivation level with secret methods. If you don't believe it, you can go and check it out.

Upon receiving the news, the sect leader immediately rushed back to the hall and looked at each other with the elders.

The leader asked solemnly, "How did the letter appear?"

"We decided to place a water mirror in the main hall, and we found it when we entered the hall."

The handwriting on the letter was very neat, so neat that one could not tell the writing style. The strokes were deliberately mixed up. The clan leader looked at the letter and said in a deep voice, "What do you think?"

"Something is wrong, there may be a conspiracy, but even if there is something wrong, we can only try it for now."

After all, the longer the time drags on, the more disadvantageous it will be for them. No one is willing to give up the spiritual source, let alone the top-grade spiritual source!

No matter how many parties are playing games behind the scenes, they have to bring the spiritual source back first.

"It is impossible to pass my seal without the cultivation of Mahayana," said the sect leader. "Grand Elder, go gather the inner disciples in the main pavilion square and talk about some drill precautions. The rest of you follow me. If A Lie is really Mahayana and suppresses his cultivation to Yuan Infant, we have to make some preparations."

The second elder understood what he meant: "Set up a killing formation?"

Sect Leader: "Well, if it's a misunderstanding, the killing formation won't be activated. If it's true, it can be put to use. When the scene ends, remember to find a reason to call the disciples living around A Lie and don't let them go back yet."

Everyone responded: “Yes!”

When the sect protection formation was suddenly activated, all the disciples were stunned, including Fen Xiu. Everyone couldn't help but whisper and feel uneasy, but soon, a message was passed on from inside the sect that this was a drill, and all the disciples were asked to go to the square to announce the details of the drill.

After hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Although they were surprised that the drill was not notified in advance, they were glad that everything was alright.

Inner disciples do not include servants, and at this time Xiao Mo was flying to Fen Xiu's residence. After running around everywhere, he could finally stop and rest for a while.

Yes, this was Xiao Mo’s idea, and he was the one who delivered the letter into the hall.

He had no intention of taking the spiritual source for himself, he just wanted to draw the sect leader's attention to Fen Xiu and get this trouble out of Yingyue Sect.

After finishing the task, Xiao Mo will return the spiritual source to Yingyue Sect.

Xiao Mo sat on the roof of the burning building, watching the clan leader and the elders arrive and begin to set up a killing array. He used telepathy to tell Chu Jinglan, who was far away in the main hall, "Things are going very smoothly. It's worth my running around."

Chu Jinglan was among the disciples listening to the detailed rules compiled by the Fifth Elder. No one knew that he was whispering to his inner demon.

"You really liked the jerky that day. You're so tired, why don't you have two more bags?"

Xiao Moshizi opened his mouth and said, "Three packs!"

Chu Jinglan's eyes were gentle: "Okay."

"Two packs" was obviously an imaginary number. As long as he liked, Chu Jinglan would of course give him more.

The sect leader had set up the killing array, and the five elders adjourned the meeting, asking everyone to return to their residences first. They also asked some disciples to stay behind, saying that they would help with the arrangements later.

As Fen Xiu was walking on the road, he felt that the danger drills of the righteous sects had their merits. For example, after returning to the Demon Realm, he could do the same thing, first telling everyone that it was fake so that everyone could rest assured, and then... turn it into a real killing spree.

The deceived person's expression must be very interesting when he discovers the lie and is about to die.

The more Fen Xiu thought about it, the higher the corners of his mouth curled, but when he got closer to his residence, his smile paused.

His cultivation was suppressed to the Yuanying period, but his consciousness and perception were not.

——Someone disturbed his yard.

The consumption of his spiritual veins was discovered? Are you suspecting him?

He didn't remember doing anything that could leave any evidence, and there was no evidence to prove his provocation to Xiao Zhuji. If he was the first person to be suspected because of the depletion of his spiritual veins, it could only be because of his prejudice against the demons.

Fen Xiu pretended to be unaware and walked into the yard without hesitation. After he entered the jar, the sect leader and the three elders who were waiting there did not show up immediately, but continued to watch the situation.

Very patient.

Fen Xiu continued to walk inside, and suddenly, a pair of black hands appeared out of nowhere in the yard, and an ethereal voice that was not even clear whether it was male or female came out: "Sir, I have brought you the spiritual source you asked for!"

Fen Xiu:? ?

Is it not the spiritual source or something else that is held in those hands?

At this moment, the sect leader suddenly jumped up and snatched the spiritual source away in the blink of an eye. The pair of dark hands screamed and disappeared in an instant.

The leader shouted: "Form a formation!"

A huge formation in the courtyard instantly spread out from under his feet, with brilliant golden light. At this time, Fen Xiu finally came to his senses and found that he had been framed.

This was the first time someone dared to take advantage of him.

Fen Xiu licked his teeth. The different kind of anger and experience made him laugh. This journey to the Renxiu Sect was full of ups and downs.

Xiao Mo didn't leave. He just watched from outside the courtyard. Although the killing array was set up, the attack hadn't started yet. The sect leader asked another elder to take Lingyuan away first. He looked at Fen Xiu solemnly: "Do you have anything else to say?"

Fen Xiu secretly began to accumulate strength, preparing to recover his cultivation. Starting to accumulate strength now would save him time to recover to the Mahayana stage later. However, while he was stalling for time, he also planned to play one more game: "I don't know anything. I was tricked."

The clan leader looked him up and down and said, "But today we have been caught and hijacked. You are the most suspicious. You must be temporarily sealed and locked up in the dungeon. Once we find out the truth, if it is really not your fault, we will release you."

It’s okay to play around, but it’s not okay to seal your cultivation and enter the dungeon. Fen Xiu pretended to slump his shoulders and accepted his fate: “Okay, I’ll tell you, I actually found out that Mo Lan is an undercover agent of the demon clan. This matter must be related to him. He wants to frame me.”

The clan leader frowned. Those who paid attention to Chu Jinglan knew how good he was to his servant Mo Lan. Was that little Zhuji an undercover agent of the demon clan?

Xiao Mo was stunned for a moment, then he couldn't help but grit his teeth: This guy can bite back at me!

I was careless. I didn't play the little black hand well just now. I should have just called him Your Majesty. Why call him Sir?

Sect Leader: “Do you have any evidence?”

Fen Xiu flipped his hand and took out a small bottle: "Sprinkle this powder at his feet. If he is a demon, demonic energy will naturally appear around him."

He opened the bottle to show that it was harmless, and pointed at his feet. One of the elders, who was well versed in pharmacology, identified the ingredients inside and finally found that the combined effect was indeed feasible and there was no harm.

This was mixed by Fen Xiu himself. He thought it through and decided to confirm whether Xiao Mo was a demon or not. Although he looked crazy, he was actually quite knowledgeable about medicines. Currently, there were no medicines on the market that could identify demons. The powder he threw at Xiao Mo that day was mixed by him.

The elder's eyes lit up: "The person who came up with this recipe is very creative."

Fen Xiu smiled with determination: "If you don't believe me, you can ask him to confront me face to face."

Before he concocted this powder, since demons could choose to use only spiritual power instead of magic energy at the cost of reducing the power of their moves, many demons looked no different from humans and were difficult to distinguish, except for those with particularly obvious racial characteristics.

But in the past, humans and demons lived in harmony, so this kind of medicine was of no use. It didn't matter whether one was human or demon. The demons never concealed their identities because of the pride in their blood. After all, even the inner demon that successfully seized the physical body was not rejected by everyone.

After all, some people are so evil that after they are kidnapped, the people around them will thank them. Only those who originally had good character will have their relatives and friends hunt down the evil spirits after they are kidnapped.

Fen Xiu deliberately revealed this medicinal powder. He also wanted to leave a sample so that Ren Xiu could promote it vigorously and let some demons suffer from it. This would further catalyze racial conflicts.

And if he wants to send an undercover agent in the future, he will mix another kind of powder to make this powder ineffective. It is very interesting to think about the chaos that will happen at that time.

Xiao Mo asked the system: "Does the powder really work?"

System: "Yes, after analysis, the main ingredient of that medicine is to target the evil spirit. When you appear in front of people, the evil spirit will be temporarily fixed and it will be effective on you. However, if you remain invisible as a spirit, the medicine powder will not be effective."

He rolled his eyes, made a decision, disappeared from the spot, and returned to Chu Jinglan's side.

The clan leader nodded, and the elders immediately sent messages down to ask Mo Lan to come over. Mo Lan was led over by Xian He in a short while, but they didn't expect Chu Jing Lan to come as well.

Honestly speaking, if this Ali's cultivation level is just an act, and he suddenly attacks and kills someone with poison, the situation will be very dangerous even if they are all there. Why would this kid Chu Jinglan come to join in the fun!

He is too concerned about his servant.

For safety reasons, the elder separated Chu Jinglan from his attendants first.

Unexpectedly, Chu Jinglan remained motionless: "Sect Master, elders, why don't you first tell me why Mo Lan came here?"

They were standing outside the courtyard, but they could see the scene inside clearly. The courtyard walls of ordinary inner disciples were made of low fences, not high walls. But when Mo Lan saw Ali standing in the killing formation, he did not show any panic, only confusion and scrutiny.

Seeing that Chu Jinglan was unmoved by his persuasion, the elder had no choice but to move closer, thinking that if Mo Lan refused to be examined, he could immediately separate the two of them from this distance. He explained what happened at the same time, but concealed the fact that the stolen thing was the spiritual source.

He had secretly made preparations, waiting for Mo Lan's choice, but he never expected that Mo Lan would blink after hearing what he had said, and said blankly, "But I am originally a demon?"

Everyone was stunned for a moment, including Fen Xiu who was ready to watch the show.

"I don't know what he meant by undercover, but I am originally a demon, so I have nothing to fear from admitting." Xiao Mo looked at the people around him, "No one has asked me about this, has anyone?"

Chu Jinglan also nodded: "Yes, he is a demon, and no one has ever asked me."

The sect leader and the elders also burned their cultivation: "…………"

Careless!
