Chapter 167 Necklace
After Lian Qingzhou walked away, the fox cousin was the first to go berserk: "Are you humans crazy? How dare you cooperate with aliens? You're crazy, you're all a bunch of lunatics!"
Tao Zi clenched the dagger in her hand and said, "The aliens are looking for something, and we can't let her find it."
"Nonsense, of course not."
She added, "Don't tell them about this yet."
The fox cousin was confused for a moment before she asked, "Why?"
She simply said, "Three sects and four gates are all involved."
Yue Shan and the others were definitely fine, but what about Li Xiu? What about Hua Seng? Who could guarantee that their sects were fine?
Tao Zi gripped the dagger tightly and suddenly thought of his three good friends. Except for Yue Qingya who was a casual cultivator, the other two were from the Four Sects.
The fox cousin didn't say anything. Tao Zi jumped down from the beam with it and followed Lian Qingzhou quietly.
With Lian Qingzhou's disguised help, they quickly reached the inside.
Lian Qingzhou didn't know how he managed to avoid the sight of those people and walked in.
Tao Zi was watching from the beam and happened to see someone checking at the door. The way of checking was very strange. He placed his hands on the head of the person being checked and then pressed lightly.
The person being examined may look painful for a moment, then return to normal.
She watched all this quietly, and suddenly a very shocking guess emerged in her mind.
Tao Zi knocked a monk unconscious, cut off her face skin and put it on her own face using a special method, and then put on her clothes.
She let the little fox hide and walked in with a swagger.
Just as she reached the door, someone stopped her and said, "Stop."
Tao Zi stopped there, alert and ready to escape at any time.
The man pressed his hands on her head and applied a little force, and a familiar pain suddenly emerged from deep within her mind.
Then the inspecting monk took a step back and motioned for her to go in.
Tao Ziwei breathed a sigh of relief and stepped in.
It's very peaceful here, everyone is doing their own thing and smiling.
Tao Zi couldn't help but shiver. At this moment, the sound of music came, and she subconsciously walked in following the sound of the music.
Halfway through, the sound stopped, and she continued on her way relying on her memory.
What appeared in front of her was a wall. She put her hand on it and felt around. Soon, she touched a slightly raised stone brick and pressed it down.
The stone wall slowly opened to both sides without making any sound.
She was a little surprised that it was purely mechanical.
Generally speaking, those who use pure mechanisms are mortals, while cultivators generally use mechanisms related to spiritual energy.
She walked in and what came into view was a garden with a variety of flowers in full bloom, which was magnificent.
She walked in lightly, and an anxious voice came: "Palace Master, hurry up and follow Qingzhou. It will be too late if you are discovered."
It was Lian Qingzhou's voice.
Tao Zi hid in a big tree and looked down.
The Palace Master of Xulan Palace sat on a chair with an indifferent expression, while Lian Qingzhou anxiously urged her to leave.
Seeing that the Palace Master didn't respond, Lian Qingzhou said, "I've already informed the Master, and they'll be here soon. But just in case, the Palace Master should leave with Qingzhou first."
The Palace Master looked at her and suddenly sneered, saying, "Why are you being so hypocritical? You're colluding with the evil fool!"
Lian Qingzhou asked in confusion, "What does Palace Master mean?"
"Everything that happened in this palace is imprinted in my mind. I heard everything you just said. I never thought that the three sects and four schools could do such a thing."
Hearing this, Tao Zi looked over, and the Palace Master also raised her eyes, seemingly looking at Lian Qingzhou, but she knew that the Palace Master was looking at her.
Seeing Lian Qingzhou's expression change drastically, the Palace Master of Xulan Palace said again: "My spiritual power has been imprisoned. If you want to kill me, you can do it now."
Lian Qingzhou bit his lip, his expression showing a hint of helplessness and pity, and said, "Palace Master, we are also helpless. That alien race has a lot of things in its hands."
The Lord of Xulan Palace shouted angrily: "This is not an excuse for your betrayal!"
Lian Qingzhou smiled bitterly, looking very distressed: "It's not betrayal. One day, we will wipe out the alien race."
The Palace Master didn't respond, but whispered, "I don't believe it. Humanity is finished, Xuanyue Continent is finished, everything is finished."
Lian Qingzhou hesitated for a long time before saying, "Palace Master, you don't know that we are stalling for time. After all, if we fight now, we won't be able to defeat the alien race."
She didn't say anything. She was anxious and said, "Palace Master, I did come here for that thing, but my goal is to prevent it from falling into the hands of foreigners. Otherwise, why would I have gone through so much trouble to break in?"
The Xulan Palace Master sneered, clearly disbelieving him. She continued, "Your palace is infested with aliens outside, yet inside, there's not even a trace of black fog to be found. Isn't that enough to convince you of this?"
"Why should I trust you, a bunch of rubbish who collaborate with aliens, just for this?"
Lian Qingzhou looked distressed, but she quickly pulled herself together and said, "Palace Master, this is the game we play with the alien races. They can attack the Xulan Palace, but they can't attack you."
The Palace Master laughed. "They didn't attack me, wasn't it because of the necklace? As for not placing the black mist here, I'm afraid it was to make it easier for you to come in and trick you out of the necklace, right?"
Lian Qingzhou's expression grew increasingly helpless as he said, "Palace Master, Qingzhou promises that he won't let the necklace fall into the hands of foreigners. Even if you don't trust Qingzhou, you should at least trust the Tiandao Sect, right?"
Hearing this name, the Palace Master lowered his eyes and remained silent.
"The Tiandao Sect dares to use the name of Heavenly Dao because they are the representatives of Heavenly Dao in the human world. The Tiandao Sect tacitly approves all this, which naturally means that Heavenly Dao also approves all this."
The Palace Master closed his eyes tiredly and asked, "What on earth is going on?"
"It's just a game. We give up some of our interests, and the aliens also give up some of their interests. It all depends on who can maximize the benefits."
“Do many people know about this?”
Lian Qingzhou shook his head and said, "No, in the entire Minglan Sect, only Master and I know about these things. The other sects are similar."
"What's going on with the corpse demonization and heart poison?"
Lian Qingzhou was silent for a moment. Seeing the Palace Master's complicated expression, she said, "This is a deal between the alien race and a cultivator from Xulan Palace. The alien race helped her control Xulan Palace, and she tacitly allowed the alien race to devour some of the cultivators and search for the necklace. The corpse transformation and the heart poison were just means."
"What a good trick! With this incident before, I'm afraid that the Xulan Palace belongs not to that traitor, but to an alien race!"
"Master has guessed this, so later... he will send people to destroy the Xulan Palace. Please follow me, Palace Master."
