Bai Lu also understood the expression and smiled tactfully. He stood up, bowed to the two of them and left.
After Bai Lu left, Murong Qingming looked around to make sure no one was prying. Then he approached Lu Qingan and whispered, "Fellow Daoist Jia, these demons must have come for the Demon Dragon. So I guess the Demon Dragon is about to die."
Lu Qing'an feigned ignorance and asked calmly, "Daoist friend, do you know the exact date when this demon dragon fell?"
"In fact, our ancestors once passed down a prophecy that the fall of the Demon Dragon would probably occur in my and Huang Zhentian's generation, or in my daughter's generation. Now it seems that it is very likely to be my generation. Judging from the whereabouts of the demons, I'm afraid that time is not far away." Murong Qingming did not hide his words anymore. He talked to Lu Qing'an about this matter and asked for a favor.
After burying Huang Zhentian last night, he thought deeply for a long time and finally made up his mind and made a decision.
Lu Qingan pretended to understand and said, "That's cause for celebration. After all, for you, the death of the Demon Dragon means you've fulfilled the trust of your ancestors. However, there's one thing I'm curious about. Since you don't know the Demon Dragon's exact location, how can you be sure it's dead?"
Lu Qing'an had wanted to ask this question for a long time, but Murong Qingming had not mentioned the timing of the dragon's death last time.
Murong Qingming smiled bitterly and said, "I couldn't bring myself to mention it last time, so I'll tell you the truth this time. When the demon dragon falls, a strange phenomenon will surely appear. Everyone in Panlong City will be able to witness it."
After Huang Zhentian's death, he sorted out his belongings and accidentally discovered some secrets about the magic dragon.
It turned out that each of their families had a secret that they did not share with each other, as if to prevent one family from betraying their ancestral teachings. Now, he has completely mastered all the secrets of the existence of the magic dragon.
"I see." Lu Qing'an nodded, then continued, "However, there is still one thing I don't understand. I wonder if you have anything else to hide, could you tell me?"
Murong Qingming's expression straightened up, and he said calmly, "Fellow Daoist, please ask."
Lu Qing'an asked, "If my guess is correct, there is a secret formation in Panlong City. I suspect that the demon dragon has some special features within this formation. Perhaps it's not that the powerful men of your ancestors can't kill this demon dragon, but rather, do you have some other plans?"
He had indeed never noticed any special formation in Panlong City before, but last night when he heard Murong Qingming mention that Huang Zhentian used the power of Panlong City to improve his cultivation and kill Sun Yinyang, he deduced that there was indeed an extraordinary formation in the city.
A formation of this level is definitely not as simple as just improving one's cultivation level. There must be more secrets that Murong Qingming has not revealed.
Murong Qingming sighed inwardly, he was indeed worthy of being an immortal-level formation master with profound attainments in formation.
"Since fellow Daoist already knows, there is no need for me to hide it anymore. Now that the Demon Dragon is about to die, everything is settled. The reason I told you is because I have a favor to ask of you. If fellow Daoist is willing to listen to me, I hope you can agree to my small request." After saying that, he bowed deeply to Lu Qing'an.
Lu Qingan's expression under the mask changed slightly.
Hey guys, you're waiting for me here!
It doesn't seem like a good thing.
"I will make a decision after I hear what you want." Lu Qing'an also became serious and did not agree directly.
I also want to see what Murong Qingming wants to do.
Seeing this, Murong Qingming said solemnly, "Once the demon dragon falls, the mission entrusted by our ancestors will be completed. At that time, I plan to leave Panlong City and no longer serve as the city lord. I will go out to practice and seek opportunities. After all, strength is respected in this world."
Since childhood, he has had a wish to travel far and wide to see the world. However, after he became an adult, he was told that he had a mission and could not leave at will.
He vaguely remembered the dreams he and Huang Zhentian had when they were young.
Travel around the world and write your own unique chapter of strength.
Hearing this, Lu Qing'an vaguely guessed Murong Qingming's intention and asked, "Do you mean to let me be the Lord of Panlong City?"
Murong Qingming smiled and said, "That's right. I believe that with Fellow Daoist Jia's strength and talent, he will be able to handle the task. Moreover, the five major families are now in name only, so you can definitely support the rise of trustworthy forces. Moreover, I see that Fellow Daoist is also a person with a secret, so if you go to Shouhuan Pagoda in the future, you will have no worries. Then Shouhuan Pagoda will be under your full control."
He had heard reports from his subordinates that Lu Qing'an had entered and exited Shouhuan Tower many times.
Lu Qing'an has so many treasures, and he used them to self-destruct, so it is very likely that he obtained them from the Shouhuan Tower.
From this, it can be inferred that Lu Qing'an has a long life span and may not be a Liuli Realm expert, but a more terrifying existence. After all, even an eighth-grade immortal-level formation master once praised Lu Qing'an's formation attainments.
Lu Qing'an was slightly tempted, but he didn't want to be trapped here forever. Panlong City was great, but it only had treasures of the sixth rank of immortals. Once he had enough life, he would have to travel to a higher-level city and find a higher-level life exchange tower to exchange for more high-level treasures.
"I will stay in Panlong City in the short term, but after many years, I will eventually leave." Lu Qing'an shook his head slightly and replied frankly.
"That's fine. You can find a successor by then. I really can't find anyone suitable." Murong Qingming sighed. "Panlong City is in a period of transition right now. There isn't even a decent Void Realm expert."
Lu Qing'an was silent for a moment, and finally nodded and said, "Okay, I promise you."
He didn't expect that this would be such a good job. He could control the power of Panlong City and become a hands-off boss in the future. It would be a good thing.
Seeing Lu Qing'an's agreement, Murong Qingming was overjoyed and said, "Then I'll leave Panlong City to Fellow Daoist Jia from now on!"
Lu Qing'an nodded slightly, then said, "Can we get back to what we just discussed?"
"Of course." Murong Qingming smiled slightly, took a deep breath, and continued, "The Demon Dragon's original cultivation level was at the Universal Realm. We humans have many powerful warriors, so we can naturally kill it. The reason it was sealed here is because of a grand plan. The formation of Panlong City is like a chess piece, relying on the power of the Demon Dragon to maintain the operation of the formation. Once the Demon Dragon dies, the effect of this formation will also end."
Lu Qingan's expression changed slightly under the mask.
Wow, what a huge plan?
"What kind of layout is this? What kind of formation is this? What does the so-called effect of the formation mean?" Lu Qing'an suddenly realized that the task he had taken on did not seem simple.
"We don't know the specific layout, but we know that it involves all living beings. This formation covers the entire human race, and even affects other races! And the formation of Panlong City is only a corner of the formation covering all living beings. Once the evil dragon dies, the foundation of the formation here will be opened up." Murong Qingming told everything he knew.
Lu Qingan narrowed his eyes and thought to himself: "What a great formation for the people!"
It seems that his understanding of this fairy world is less than one ten-thousandth.
That's right, he only knows the situation of the small city of Panlong City, and he doesn't even have a thorough understanding of it.
For example, how did the Shouhuan Tower come about, and how did the treasures come about, there is no answer to that.
Perhaps, this great formation for all living things is related to the Longevity Tower in the entire fairy world?
