Chapter 71: Mantis? Cicada? Yellow Bird?
Zhou An immediately stood up and called out coldly, "Where is she?"
"Phoenix Forest in Nanyuan Yanzhou." Mei Zimo said.
"If you are not Mei Zimo, then who are you?" Zhou An asked coldly. Four purple-clothed guards jumped out, surrounded the man, and pointed four swords at him.
"It's only been a few days, and the emperor doesn't recognize me anymore?" Mei Zimo shook his head and looked at Zhou An, and found a curse mark on his forehead.
"Golden robe!" Zhou An shouted.
"Haha, that's right. Tomorrow is the day when good and evil will battle. Which side will you choose? Hahaha..." Mei Zimo laughed loudly. The curse seal on his forehead turned into black gas and dissipated, and then he fainted on the ground.
Zhou An frowned and said, "This man will be kept in custody for the time being. Queen, you are in charge here."
"Yes." Shangguan Rong stood up and responded.
Zhou An simply set up a beam of light and flew away.
None of the ministers said anything, pretending they hadn't seen anything and remained silent. Shangguan Rong asked the singing and dancing to continue, but her mind was no longer here.
Zhou An flew directly to the Baihua Palace. It had already been built and all the Baihua disciples lived here. The construction here was somewhat similar to that of the Baihua Valley, but with some new changes. There were flowers everywhere, many of which were rare treasures in the world.
Zhou An was not in the mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery, so he flew to the rooftop of Baihua Tower in the middle. Hua Wu Yue was sitting here practicing and absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
Zhou An's presence here surprised her, so she stood up and asked, "Today is the human New Year's Day, why are you here?"
"The man in golden robe sent a message that your master was captured and taken to Phoenix Forest. From the footage, it seems that he was used to refine swords." Zhou An said it directly without any nonsense.
Hua Wu Yue stood up suddenly with a shocked and angry expression and asked, "Really?"
"We're not sure whether the image transmitted by the Xuanguan Mirror spell is an illusion, but the man in gold robe is so confident that we will go, so it should be correct." Zhou An said.
"The situation here is complicated now. You stay here and I will go investigate first. If the master is really there, you can come and help me." After Hua Wu Yue said this, he couldn't wait to set up his escape light and fly away.
Zhou An frowned. She knew that Hua Wu Yue would definitely go back. Madam Baihua was like her adoptive mother, and she could not give up this friendship. If she gave up, it would probably become a big demon in her heart in the future.
So Zhou An did not stop it. Otherwise, if Madam Baihua died because of her failure to rescue people in time, it would become her lifelong regret.
For ordinary people, lifelong regrets are just regrets, but for those who practice Taoism, these are inner demons, so practicing Taoism is actually about cultivating the mind.
He immediately went to Kongling Immortal Palace to discuss with Qihui and others.
Qianzhou was unified by the founding emperor three hundred years ago and was called the Qianyuan Empire.
Nanyuan Yanzhou is the continent bordering Qianzhou to the south. It has a total of five human countries, which are called the Five Southern Countries by the people of the Qianyuan Empire.
Phoenix Forest is the internal territory of Feng Nation, one of the five nations. It uses the phoenix as its national flag and has been ruled by queens for generations. The people practice the family-inherited martial arts Lihuo Shengong.
Legend has it that the founding queen had the opportunity to obtain the fragments of the Fire Sutra, a method of cultivating immortality, and it was also because of this martial art that she was able to establish the Phoenix Kingdom.
Later, it was modified by the founding queen and became the current Lihuo Divine Art.
Phoenix Forest is the place where the founding queen found the fragments of the Lihuo Sutra. Now it has become a forbidden area of the Phoenix Kingdom and only members of the royal family can enter.
Hua Wu Yue flew out of Qianzhou overnight. When she was near the Phoenix Forest, a crescent moon suddenly appeared in the night sky. Hua Wu Yue did not even notice it. The white crescent moon flashed and hit Hua Wu Yue's escape light, knocking her down on the lawn outside the Phoenix Forest.
Fortunately, Hua Wu Yue had the Moon Universe Pearl to protect him, and this attack only dispersed his escaping light.
She landed on the ground, with moon beads floating on her head, emitting white light that covered her body.
At this time, a silver robe flew down in front of her, and a golden robe floated in the air, with three purple-red ghost heads dancing around.
"You knew this was a trap, yet you were still in such a hurry to get out. You are more reckless than I expected." The man in the golden robe looked down at her and said.
"We will not take part in the battle between good and evil. Why do you insist on forcing us to do so?" Hua Wu Yue asked, secretly preparing to release a flying sword to ask for help.
"Don't waste your energy. The flying sword cannot deliver the letter. Even if Zhou An knew, so what? Today is the New Year's Day for mortals, and all the monsters in Qianyuan have gone to congratulate them. Zhou An is very busy now." The man in silver robe said calmly, and he made a sword gesture with his right hand, and a fairy sword flew out.
"The Demon-Slaying Sword! You must be Tian Chanzi. The Seven Treasures of Heaven are really all in your hands." Hua Wu Yue frowned.
"That's right. I will use the Seven Treasures of Heaven to make all those who destroyed my Heavenly Dao Sect pay the price. Let them also have a taste of what it's like to have their clan wiped out." The man in the silver robe no longer hid himself. He lifted his hat to reveal the appearance of a handsome young man with a red seal on his brow.
"You tricked me out because you were afraid of the Sun, Moon, Universe and Heaven Pearls joining together. Now that you've succeeded, can you tell me why you dragged so many people into this war?
No matter who wins or loses in the battle between good and evil, the demons and the hidden enemies will gain the upper hand. Once the righteous, evil, evil, and demons lose balance, the world will surely be in chaos in the future. You cannot afford this consequence." Hua Wu Yue asked the biggest question in his mind.
“The current Qianyuan Palace must be destroyed. Otherwise, if it continues to grow, it will definitely invade neighboring countries and bring endless slaughter to the world.
Hua Wuyue, you shouldn't follow the emperor, even if it's destiny. You could have hidden yourself away and cultivated yourself, and you could have preserved the Baihua lineage, what a pity! "Tian Chanzi wanted to continue, but the man in the golden robe frowned and said, "There's no time to talk, lest something happens, take action."
Tian Chanzi made a sword gesture with his hands, and the Immortal Sword turned into a sword rainbow hundreds of feet long and slashed towards Hua Wu Yue. At the same time, three purple-red ghost heads beside the golden robe emitted purple flames and swooped down.
Hua Wu Yue's body turned and disappeared into a ball of flowers and leaves.
"Hmph, the Hundred Flowers magic can't be hidden from me." The golden-robed hand pointed, and the three ghost heads spewed out purple flames, burning the surrounding grass and trees into charcoal.
Soon one of the leaves was burned, revealing Hua Wu Yue's figure, and she immediately flew towards the woods on her sword.
"Chase." The man in golden robe was in the air and Tian Chanzi was on the ground. No matter where Hua Wu Yue ran, he would be discovered by the ghost head. The purple fire he sprayed covered a large area and there was nowhere to hide.
Even if he used the escape light, it would be dispersed by the Haoyue Wheel. The golden robe was well prepared, with a magic weapon to counter the Hundred Flowers spell.
When they chased into the woods, Hua Wu Yue suddenly stopped. Seeing the Demon-Slaying Sword Jian Hong flying behind her, she turned around and stretched out her right hand, and the Wanhua Xuanguan Sword rushed out of her palm.
The two sword rainbows collided, a fireball exploded, and lightning flashed.
Three ghost heads rushed down from the sky, and the moon bead hanging on Hua Wu Yue's head released a light curtain to block the purple fire of the ghost heads.
When the three people were in a stalemate, suddenly the space behind the golden robe cracked and the Void Wheel flew out.
Sensing the energy fluctuations behind him, the man in gold robe dodged immediately, but the Void Wheel was extremely fast. As soon as he moved, the wheel pierced his left shoulder and almost his entire arm was cut off.
He groaned in pain and saw the space around Hua Wu Yue split open. Zhou An flew out, and the two of them held the Sun and Moon Pearls in one hand, and combined them into one, creating Yin and Yang True Fire, which rushed into the air. The three ghost heads were directly burned when they were touched, and fell to the ground in flames, creating three large pits.
"Impossible! How can you be here!" The man in golden robe exclaimed in disbelief.
The two men moved their clasped hands, and the Yin-Yang True Fire swept over. The man in golden robe was unwilling to give in. With so many old monsters from the monster clan attacking the palace, why could Zhou An appear here? Didn't he want the palace anymore?
This was completely beyond his plan. In desperation, he looked at Tian Chanzi and his body turned into ten streams of light and flew away.
The Yin-Yang True Fire swept through the air, only blasting three streams of light, while the rest flew away.
Then the two of them swung their hands downwards, and the pillar of fire smashed down like a whip. Tian Chanzi used the sword rainbow of the Demon-Slaying Sword to block it, and also turned into a stream of light and flew away.
However, he did not have the clever escape method like the man in golden robe. When he turned into white light and flew up, he was shattered by the flying Void Wheel and fell to the ground.
At this moment, the Yin-Yang fire pillars hit his body, and the surrounding ground was instantly vaporized.
However, within the pillar of fire, purple light appeared on Tian Chanzi's body, blocking the burning flames. He was also able to control the Demon-Slaying Sword to chop at them.
The two men separated, and the sword swept between them, leaving a crack of unknown depth.
Hua Wu Yue released the Wanhua Xuanguan Sword to block the Demon-Slaying Sword. Zhou An made a seal with his hands, and several space cracks appeared around Tian Chanzi, and the Void Wheel flew out in the blink of an eye.
At the same time, the Haoyue Wheel flew out and collided with the Void Wheel. The two magical weapons with similar appearances collided and flew and collided at high speed around Tian Chanzi. The speed was so fast that it was invisible to the naked eye. If he took a step, he would probably be crushed by the two magic weapons. He could only rely on his strong consciousness to control the magic weapons.
"Why do you know how to control the Void Wheel?" Tian Chanzi was curious. The Seven Treasures of Heavenly Dao each have their own control methods, and only the headmaster and elders of the Heavenly Dao Sect know them.
Without any treasure passed down, even the core disciples don’t know how to control it.
"I am also a disciple of Tiandao Sect. When the Divine Beggar was released, he thought you had been killed by a villain. He didn't want the inheritance of Tiandao to be lost, so he accepted me as a disciple of Tiandao Sect." Zhou An said.
