At that time, in Baozhuan Peak, a paper maid came to tell the legend that when the Immortal Master Taiqing was about to enter the peak, Wuqiongcang and the Immortal Master Yuyuan were playing chess.
According to Wu Qiongcang's personality, he would not see anyone at this time. He waved his hand and said to the paper maid, "Let him wait. I am busy playing chess and don't have time to play with him."
It was Jade Abyss Immortal Venerable who persuaded him, and Wu Qiongcang reluctantly waved his hand to the paper maid and said, "Alright, since Xiao Yuyu has said so, then go and bring the person over here."
The paper maid replied "yes" and turned away. After a few breaths, the voice of Taiqing Immortal Venerable rang out urgently: "Wu Qiongcang! Wu Qiongcang! Come out quickly! Something happened to Qiqi!"
Before anyone could be seen, the sound came first, and it was as loud as a bell, exploding like thunder in Baozhuan Peak, scaring the flock of birds that had been tamed with great difficulty in Baozhuan Peak, and they flapped their wings and ran around the forest in panic.
Wu Qiongcang frowned and waited for Taiqing Immortal Venerable to come over. He then threw a chess piece at Taiqing Immortal Venerable without any hesitation and said unhappily, "Why are you howling? You're crying for your life! You scared the birds I raised. I'm going to hold you accountable."
After saying that, he reached out and picked up the tea that the paper maid had just brewed and brought it to his mouth.
If it were any other time, Immortal Taiqing would definitely have a heated argument with him, and would have to argue to get to the bottom of it.
But today he was not in the mood.
When he thought of his little disciple whom he had waited for hundreds of years, who was now in the monster's lair, Taiqing Immortal Venerable seemed to have already seen the scene of his little disciple being skinned and eaten by the monster. He was so anxious that white smoke was about to come out of the top of his hair. How could he have the mood to argue with Wuqiongcang?
He dodged the chess piece thrown by Wu Qiongcang and released a surge of pressure, irritably smashing it into dust. Taiqing Immortal Venerable said anxiously, "It's already this late, and you still have the mood to care about your birds! Wu Qiongcang, do you know where Qiqi is now?"
Before Wu Qiongcang could speak, Immortal Master Taiqing shouted again anxiously, "Qiqi and that kid Xie Beiming went to Jiuyou City! Oh, right, you still don't know what Jiuyou City is, right? Let me tell you, that's the lair of Jiuying! The lair of the great demon beast Jiuying!"
Wu Qiongcang had just sipped a mouthful of tea in his mouth, but before he could swallow it, he was startled by the words and spat out the entire cup. He abruptly stood up and said to Taiqing Immortal Venerable in a deep voice, "What did you just say? Tell me again, whose lair did Qiqi go to?"
I ask again, not because I didn’t hear it clearly, but because I heard it too clearly and couldn’t believe it!
That damn ugly monster Jiuying first killed his master, and now he is harming his apprentice... Humph!
At this moment, Wu Qiongcang's previous laziness and carelessness were swept away, and his face was full of solemnity as if a storm was about to come.
Even Yuyuan Immortal Venerable was so shocked that he crushed the chess piece in his hand. He looked at Taiqing Immortal Venerable and asked in disbelief, "Taiqing, where did you get this news?"
"Where else could it be? This is news Qiqi personally sent back! Here, see for yourself!"
As Taiqing Immortal Venerable spoke, he handed the homework that Shen Qiqi had sent back to Yuyuan Immortal Venerable. The latter was about to reach out to take it, but Wu Qiongcang was one step ahead of him and grabbed Shen Qiqi's homework book in his hand. He quickly searched for the key information at a glance, and the next moment, before Taiqing and Yuyuan Immortal Venerables could react, he had disappeared without a trace.
A powerful pressure permeated the surroundings. Fortunately, the two immortals, Taiqing and Yuyuan, were able to hold on thanks to their strong spiritual power.
The only poor thing was the paper maid, whose body was twisted and deformed by the powerful pressure from Wu Qiongcang, and was about to be torn into pieces of paper on the ground. Immortal Yuyuan turned his head and saw her, and hurriedly pulled her out of the terrible pressure.
"This madman...why is he so anxious? Can't he just wait for us?"
Taiqing Immortal Venerable looked at the direction where Wu Qiongcang left and stamped his feet angrily.
Yuyuan Immortal Venerable shook his head and smiled bitterly, thinking: That's because you don't know how much Qiong Cang hates Jiuying.
As one of the only two people who knew the relationship between Wu Qiongcang and the Emperor, Yuyuan Immortal Venerable knew too well how Wu Qiongcang had survived all these years: his hatred for Jiuying and his firm belief that the Emperor would definitely come back.
A thousand years seemed so long that it seemed endless, even for those of them who practiced Taoism.
During such a long time, Wu Qiongcang relied on hatred and faith to support himself, which is why he was able to survive until now.
Now that he finally knew the whereabouts of Jiuying, and the monster also captured Qiqi, it would be strange if he was not anxious.
Jiuyou City is near Canglang Sea.
Over thousands of years, Wu Qiongcang has traveled back and forth on this road countless times.
But he had never been as anxious to walk as he was today. He wished he could shrink the distance into an inch and travel a thousand miles in one step.
Wu Qiongcang rode on the clouds and sped all the way. The four words "Yelu Mo Ran" had rolled between his teeth thousands of times.
At the same time, in Jiuyou City, Yelu Moran was wrapped in a thick cloak, with red-hot charcoal stoves on both sides of him, and a small warm hand warmer in his hands. His whole body was wrapped in warmth.
But even so, Yelu Moyan seemed to feel that it was not warm enough, so he asked someone to add a stove behind him. Then he lazily raised his eyelids and signaled to continue.
An evil demon wearing a ghost mask said, "After the madam smashed up the bookstore, she took the young couple to Qushenglou and ordered a large table of food. Later, a group of little beggars came. They were all in rags. When they saw the food on the table, their eyes glowed green. They looked like a group of starving ghosts..."
"Just pick out the important points."
Yelu Mo Ran frowned slightly and interrupted the ghost-faced demon impatiently.
Pick out the key points?
What is the key point?
The ghost-faced demon was stunned for a moment, then he reacted as if by a flash of inspiration and said hurriedly:
"Aside from the unpleasant incident at the bookstore, Madam was very happy the rest of the time. She first entertained a group of young beggars in Qusheng Building, and later took the young couple to the Qingshui River. She also praised the beautiful lanterns you had prepared, saying she loved them..."
Everyone in the entire Jiuyou City knows that their City Lord dotes on his wife so much that he would like to give her his heart. Combined with this, it is very clear what the City Lord wants.
The evil demon with a ghost face suddenly came to his senses and stopped talking about the young couple or the group of little beggars who looked like starving ghosts. He only talked about the city lord's wife, and only talked about things that made her happy.
If the city lord's wife is happy, their city lord will also be happy.
The city lord’s wife is the barometer of the city lord.
As expected, Yelu Moyan's face, which originally had no expression, could not help but rise up and up again after hearing the words of the ghost-faced evil demon. Finally, he could not hold it back any longer and stood up and said, "I'll go see my wife." He threw down the hand warmer and walked out excitedly.
