"Friendly insights."
Dugu Jiansheng looked at Murong Fu with admiration, but then shook his head and said:
"However, I am not here to discuss the Great Dao with you, young friend."
"Without the Fire Spirit Orb, the Demon Locking Tower lacks the element of fire in its five elements, and it may not last long."
His meaning was clear: he wanted the Fire Spirit Orb.
Murong Fu tossed the Fire Spirit Orb to Dugu Sword Saint: "It's fine. This item originally belonged to the Shu Mountain Sect. Since you want it, senior, I will give it to you."
Dugu Jiansheng was surprised, "This is the Fire Spirit Orb, and you're not even tempted?"
Murong Fu replied seriously, "Why would I be moved? A mere Fire Spirit Pearl is not even worth a hair of the friendship between me and Daoist Xu."
Upon hearing this, Xu Changqing subconsciously took a step back, somewhat frightened: "Junior Brother Murong, you should just state your request directly. Although this item belongs to my Shu Mountain Sect, it was after all something you went through great lengths to retrieve from the Demon Locking Tower."
"Since you've said that, then I won't stand on ceremony. I want to take the Demon-Suppressing Sword with me."
Murong Fu smiled and looked at Dugu Sword Saint.
"good."
Dugu Sword Saint left behind a single word, took the Fire Spirit Orb, and flew away without looking back.
Then, from a distance, they saw him summon the Fire Spirit Orb and hang it above the Demon Locking Tower.
"Junior Brother Murong, it's not that our Shu Mountain Sect covets the Fire Spirit Pearl, but rather that the Demon Locking Tower is located in a rather special location—a spatial rift where the human realm, demon realm, ghost realm, and demon realm intersect," Xu Changqing explained.
"The spiritual power of the Fire Spirit Orb can suppress and dissolve negative energy, thus ensuring long-term peace and stability in the human world."
“I understand, Master Xu, no need to be so polite,” Murong Fu said with a smile.
Xu Changqing was silent for a moment, then seemed to remember something and said, "By the way, Junior Brother Murong, I already know the identity of that Li Xiaoyao you inquired about."
He was a disciple of the Drunken Sword Immortal, but neither the Drunken Sword Immortal nor Li Xiaoyao were in the sect.
Therefore, I don't know where they are either.
At this point, Xu Changqing felt somewhat ashamed.
"It's alright, it's not important anymore," Murong Fu waved his hand and said, "I'll stay at Mount Shu for a few more days, then I'll go down the mountain, is that alright?"
"It's alright, Junior Brother Murong, please feel free to do as you please."
Xu Changqing nodded.
...
Murong Fu stayed in Shu Mountain for another three days, exploring the various mysteries of gods, humans, ghosts, and demons.
There are countless profound truths in the world, and even though Murong Fu studied them all day long, there were still many questions he could not understand.
This day.
Murong Fu straddled the back of the Qilin, with the Demon Sword slung across his waist.
Longkui, in the form of a sword spirit, is attached to the demonic sword.
In front of him was the petite Zhao Ling'er, who was holding a little fox in her arms.
"Spirit Lord, stop at the city ahead."
Murong Fu called out to the Water Kirin.
Upon hearing this, the water unicorn landed at the city gate.
Passersby stopped and looked over when they saw a celestial being descending.
But they didn't dare to stare at her openly, only daring to steal a few glances.
A young man with a pointed snout and a fawning face hurried over, bowing and scraping as he said, "My esteemed immortal, I am Sun Ergou. May I ask if you need a guide? I grew up in Jiayuan City, and there is no one in this city I don't know."
"Let's find a place to eat first."
Murong Fu casually tossed a piece of silver to Sun Ergou.
"Yes, yes! Immortal, please follow me."
Sun Ergou became increasingly respectful and led the way.
Murong Fu, however, did not rush to leave. He turned his head and looked at a boy on the roadside who was wearing a blue robe, had dark skin, and looked like a farm boy.
A burly man in black, wearing a straw hat, accompanied the boy.
Ordinary people wouldn't notice anything amiss, but with a little spiritual awareness, they would realize that it was a puppet.
The unremarkable boy tried to remain calm, looking down at the ground to avoid attracting attention.
Fortunately, Murong Fu merely glanced at him and seemed not to notice him at all.
"This is getting more and more interesting," Murong Fu seemed to mutter to himself.
Then, he followed in Sun Ergou's footsteps.
a long time.
The young man dared to breathe heavily, thinking to himself, "I didn't expect to encounter a cultivator so soon after arriving in Zhao. That person was definitely at least at the Foundation Establishment stage!"
——
Shanhaiyuan.
This is a branch store.
However, many dishes retain their original flavor and are just as delicious as those at Shanhaiyuan Restaurant in Heyang City.
Murong Fu ate to his heart's content.
A young man approached, excitedly cupping his fists and saying, "Greetings, fellow Daoist. My name is Wan Xiaoshan. May I ask your name?"
The young man was somewhat shy and only dared to greet Murong Fu, not daring to look at Zhao Ling'er at all.
It seems that one glance at her would make her blush.
"My name is Murong Fu," Murong Fu replied calmly.
"So it's Fellow Daoist Murong. I suppose you're here to attend the Tai Nan Small Gathering as well? We rogue cultivators can only obtain cultivation resources by attending various gatherings and exchanging ideas with fellow Daoists..." Wan Xiaoshan chattered on.
In a corner of the restaurant, an ordinary-looking young man appeared to be drinking tea, but in reality, he was eavesdropping, very curious.
After speaking for a while, Wan Xiaoshan's mouth became dry. He picked up his teacup, took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and continued, "If it weren't for Alliance Leader Lin establishing the Loose Cultivator Alliance for us loose cultivators, our lives would probably be even more difficult."
"Although I am a member of the Wan family, my Wan family only has a few Foundation Establishment stage elders. Although it is called a family, it is actually no different from a rogue cultivator. We only obtain some cultivation resources by relying on the Rogue Cultivator Alliance."
"..."
"I apologize for talking too much. I hope you won't mind."
