Lu Ming glanced at it calmly, and then said: "Even if there is no mission, I will help them catch the demon cultivator. But you, have you found the blueprint of the 'Purple Furnace' magic weapon that I asked you to collect for me a few days ago?"
233 pouted, looking somewhat frustrated: "We haven't found it yet, but we have some clues. After we complete the mission in Qingshan Town, we will follow the clues to look for the blueprints. There is about an 80% chance that we will find it."
Hearing this, Lu Ming couldn't help but clench his fists, and a little excitement flashed in his eyes. This was really the best news he had heard in the past ten years. In this way, as long as he found the blueprint of the purple furnace, he could make a purple furnace magic weapon. This purple furnace magic weapon is a top-grade spiritual weapon. He only needs to use the nether fire to ignite the Tiansi grass in the purple furnace, and then he can follow the location where the purple smoke is drifting. At that time, it will not be so difficult to successfully find Jing Mo and Fu Shu. What's more, now that he is at the early stage of the Nascent Soul, making a purple furnace is not a difficult task.
Lu Ming suppressed his excitement and asked the servant: "Who is in charge of the Ming Mansion now?"
The servant replied respectfully, "It was an immortal who asked me to look after this place all year round. The immortal would come here to stay for a month every March, and the rest of the time no one would live in the mansion."
"Immortal?" Lu Ming repeated, and then asked, "What does the immortal look like?"
The servant recalled for a moment, then said with some embarrassment: "It's not that I don't want to say it, but I simply can't say it. Although the immortal comes here for thirty days every year, he never eats or drinks, and he is not seen walking around the mansion. Every day he locks himself in the west Nianhua Pavilion and does not come out. Although I have been managing the Ming Mansion for ten years, I have only seen him once. I just think that this immortal is very handsome and has an immortal temperament. I only need to see him from a distance, and I just want to bow my head and worship him. I really don't see what he looks like, and I don't know his name."
Lu Ming was slightly surprised. If what the boy said was true, the immortal he was talking about should be a very important person. For any immortal cultivator, the higher the rank, the more imposing they are. They have a natural aura without any effort, just like the two Taoists Yun Ji and Yun Xu whom they had met ten years ago. No one dared to despise them. In addition to people's traditional fear of Kun-Lai Mountain, a large part of the reason was that their natural aura made people dare not disrespect them.
While Luming was in deep thought, Mingduo's heart was in turmoil. Wasn't Nianhua Pavilion the place he and that person loved to go most when they were alive?
The person who caused his family to be destroyed, his soul to leave his body, and who has not been able to be reincarnated until now was Yunluan.
Thinking of this, Ming Duo smiled sadly, and the past scenes emerged before his eyes. He regarded Yunluan as a lifelong friend, but he never thought that he would let a wolf into the house, which not only cost him his life, but also killed his family. The entire Ming Mansion collapsed in an instant, and all the members of the Ming family completely disappeared from this world that night, even to the point where their souls were scattered and their bodies were not left.
At this point, what's the point of Yunluan coming here and pretending to do these things?
Lu Ming seemed to sense Ming Duo's inner restlessness and anger at the moment, and even vaguely showed signs of breaking through the spell. Lu Ming hurriedly recited two mantras to strengthen the power of the spell, and advised: "No matter what the truth is, don't be angry yet. If you break through the spell and accidentally leave the soul-fixing magic tool, exposing your soul to the air, it will be a bit dangerous, and the loss will outweigh the gain."
After hearing these words, Mingduo's anger gradually subsided. After a long time, he sighed and said, "I'm fine. Please let the boy let us in. I want to take a look inside."
Lu Ming nodded and said to the boy, "I am an old friend of the young master Ming Duo of the Ming family. Can I go in and take a look?"
The servant stared at Lu Ming with eyes wide open and lips trembling, and exclaimed in disbelief: "You, you are Master Mingduo's old friend?!"
Lu Ming frowned and asked, "Is there any problem?"
The servant was shocked and shook his head hastily, saying, "If the Taoist priest is really a friend of Master Mingduo, he can enter."
Lu Ming nodded, pushed open the door of Ming Mansion and walked in.
The servant behind him stood there motionless for a long time before he suddenly reacted, quietly took out a communication spell from his arms, wrote a few words with a pen, and quickly lit the spell, then wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief. In his heart, he secretly prayed that the message written on the spell could be passed to the immortal as soon as possible.
=================================
The Ming Mansion is indeed one of the most powerful families in Qingshan Town. Although three hundred years have passed, one can still see its splendor at that time. And because of the years of renovation, it does not look dilapidated or old at all. Instead, it is repaired very neatly and cleanly, which can be regarded as a lot of care.
Lu Ming knew that the man must have a close relationship with Ming Duo, otherwise Ming Duo would not have reacted so strongly after learning the truth. It was another story that was hard to tell. However, Ming Duo did not want to talk to him more, so he did not ask any more questions. He just walked slowly in the spacious and bright corridor in Ming Mansion. After a while, he came to the Nianhua Pavilion mentioned by the servant.
Ming Duo looked at it for a long while before he sighed and said, "Nothing has changed here."
Lu Ming looked at the surrounding environment, pondered for a moment, and then said softly: "This Nianhua Pavilion is surrounded by a formation, and even I can't solve it."
Mingduo asked in confusion: "Why is this?"
Lu Ming said: "Perhaps they are worried that someone will destroy this place, so they set up such a mysterious formation. Whether it is a landslide or a fire, this attic will definitely not be damaged at all. I think... the person who set up this formation also values this place very much."
Ming Duo heard this, and suddenly a mist appeared in his eyes. After a long time, he gritted his teeth and said, "What's the point of him doing this now? If it weren't for this person's prediction that the Ming family would destroy the entire cultivation world, how could the four major families jointly besiege our Ming family, and end up with such a broken family. If God has eyes, let me find my lost soul and seek revenge on him!"
Lu Ming's eyes turned, and he said slowly: "Didn't you tell me to bring you here to save the souls of the dead so that they can be reincarnated as soon as possible?"
Mingduo's anger suddenly subsided, and he said awkwardly: "After revenge, you will naturally be reincarnated..."
Lu Ming said calmly: "You never mentioned revenge."
Mingduo was choked up and quickly apologized with a smile: "I probably forgot to say it."
Lu Ming said helplessly: "I don't care about your revenge. After I find your soul, we will go our separate ways. If you want to take revenge and kill your enemy, that is your business and has nothing to do with me."
Ming Duo immediately said seriously: "Just help me find my soul back."
Lu Ming nodded and was about to speak when he was interrupted by a sharp sound. His expression froze and he quickly stepped aside, looking vigilantly at something not far away.
Only five meters away from Lu Ming, several men in blue were standing in a row. From a distance, they exuded a bit of a murderous aura. In the middle of those men, there was a man in a black robe. His eyebrows were indifferent, his black hair was meticulously tied up by a jade crown, his face was so handsome that he almost didn't look like an ordinary person, his black eyes were cold and sharp, his lips were tightly pursed, and he looked at Lu Ming's position without saying a word.
Lu Ming's expression tensed up, and his heart was suddenly filled with a thousand waves. The man in black clothes in front of him turned out to be the hero Sang Wusheng whom he hadn't met for ten years! He didn't expect to meet him in Qingshan Town.
Lu Ming remained calm, but secretly probed with his spiritual sense, only to find that the spiritual energy in Sang Wusheng's body was so weak that it was almost non-existent, and he was immediately shocked. There were only two possibilities for this situation. One was that Sang Wusheng had suffered extremely serious internal injuries, resulting in almost all of his spiritual energy being lost; the other was that Sang Wusheng had reached a level that could conceal his rank, at least above the middle stage of the Nascent Soul.
Now it seems that Sang Wusheng's situation should be the second one. I didn't expect that in ten years, Sang Wusheng would have grown so terribly. Lu Ming suddenly felt a little worried. Sang Wusheng's growth was undoubtedly a huge threat to him. He felt that he seemed to be getting closer and closer to danger.
Lu Ming suppressed the turmoil in his heart, his eyes were the same as usual, and he said calmly: "I wonder why you are here?"
When Sang Wusheng saw Lu Ming start to speak, a hint of doubt flashed across his eyes, but it quickly disappeared. His expression froze, and he said in a cold voice, "Are you the Taoist priest that Qingshan Town invited to catch the demon cultivator not long ago?"
Lu Ming was stunned, then explained: "I just passed by here and wanted to stay for a few days. I am not a Taoist priest invited by Qingshan Town."
Sang Wusheng looked at Lu Ming coldly without saying a word. Lu Ming felt uncomfortable being looked at by him, but he was unwilling to admit defeat. Instead, he continued to look at him indifferently, and his eyes never left him.
Seeing this, Sang Wusheng's eyes flashed with a hint of teasing, but he retracted his gaze and asked the man beside him: "Where is the demon cultivator now?"
The man in blue answered respectfully, "Master Demon Envoy, the demon cultivator has already fled to the east. Should we chase him?"
Sang Wusheng's expression did not change, and he said, "Let's go."
As soon as he finished speaking, Sang Wusheng turned around and flew away using his spiritual energy. The group of men in blue did not dare to neglect him and hurriedly followed Sang Wusheng. Soon, they disappeared from sight.
Lu Ming was relieved when he saw Sang Wusheng had left, secretly glad that this person didn't recognize him at all. Lu Ming carefully recalled the plot in the book, Sang Wusheng should have been in the demon world by now, and was highly valued by the demon king Chen Mu, so just now, Sang Wusheng's men called him the demon envoy.
But what made Lu Ming feel strange was that in the original novel, Sang Wusheng, because he took Cangzhi as his master, although he went to the demon world and met his biological father, but in order to prevent Chen Mu from discovering Sang Wusheng's identity, Cangzhi specially devised a trick to suppress the unique royal magic energy in Sang Wusheng's body. This deceived Chen Mu, and he was unable to sense Sang Wusheng's magic energy, and thus could not know his true identity, but instead used him as his subordinate.
Thinking of this, Lu Ming couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Now that the plot has split, Jing Mo has already worshipped Cang Zhi as his master, so naturally he can't suppress the evil spirit in Sang Wusheng's body. Could it be that Chen Mu has recognized that Sang Wusheng is actually his biological son? Or in order to develop the plot smoothly, he used other methods to make up for this loophole?
Things became more and more complicated. Lu Ming didn't want to think about it anymore. Instead, he made up his mind that after the matter in Qingshan Town was over, he would go to find the blueprint of the purple furnace, find Jing Mo and Fu Shu, and then go to Kun-Lai Summit to concentrate on practicing.
At this moment, Sang Wusheng, who was flying with his spiritual energy, suddenly stopped. He stretched out his hand and waved to the people behind him, and the group of men immediately stopped, knelt on one knee on the ground, and said respectfully: "What do you want, Master Demon Envoy?"
Sang Wusheng narrowed his eyes slightly. The man just now gave him an inexplicable sense of familiarity, almost making him lose consciousness on the spot. This situation has never happened in the past ten years. This store really makes him care about it. Perhaps this person has a close relationship with the part of his memory that has disappeared. Maybe he can find out something about what happened ten years ago from him.
Sang Wusheng's eyes were dark, and his voice was still cold and ruthless. He ordered his men, "Go check on the man just now. Don't alert the enemy, and don't hurt him."
The blue-clothed subordinate looked stern, lowered his head and replied, "Yes!"
