Chapter 404 Utsunomiya, Shion
Li Chu looked at the Black Eagle King.
King Xuan Diao looked at Li Chu.
The air seemed to be still for a moment, and the atmosphere was slightly awkward.
Li Chu seemed to have made some preparatory movements, and then realized that the person today was an acquaintance and could not be killed for the time being.
The two fingers were lowered with a slight sense of disappointment.
In the Ice and Snow Secret Realm, he shot Citroen in the head with a single shot, and the experience points he gained from killing the demon kings in the past two days were quite considerable. He was already far away from the starting point of level 80 and was moving towards level 81.
If there are three more demon kings equivalent to the Zhanxu realm, we should be able to get infinitely close to level 81...
Eighty-one, the return to the truth, what a desirable number.
The look he gave King Black Eagle was also filled with a hint of longing.
The Black Eagle King was startled and immediately stood up, saying in a tone that sounded like an oath: "Master Xiao Li, don't worry. Since the three of us brothers have agreed to help you, we will naturally stand on your side and will never help Utsunomiya to hurt humans. Not only that, whoever dares to hurt humans in the future will be irreconcilable with us, the Three Kings Ridge! The three of us brothers are the best friends and best partners of mankind!"
"Alas." Li Chu sighed and praised: "I recognize your awareness."
What the hell is recognition! You are just sighing there.
You clearly look disappointed.
King Xuan Diao did not miss any emotion in Li Chu's eyes.
after all.
A speck of dust in the little Taoist's eyes could be a heavy mountain on the three little ones!
"I'm just thinking about what to do about this matter." Li Chu said: "Since Utsunomiya has found you, this might be an opportunity that you can take advantage of."
"Yes." Black Eagle King nodded and said, "Isn't Taoist Xiao Li trying to find out the inside story of Utsunomiya? As long as you let your people go in with your travel talisman, won't everyone know everything?"
"Yes, that's a good idea."
King Xuan Diao's words coincided with Li Chu's.
It would be a shame not to make good use of such an opportunity to infiltrate the enemy.
but.
…
"Where can I find so many girls?"
Li Chu muttered to himself.
He had already sent the Black Eagle King away, and they agreed that the three demon kings would come to Yaowang Town tomorrow under the pretext of going out to capture women. By then, Li Chu would find ten women to wait here, and they would all carry Li Chu's amulets to protect their safety. When they entered Utsunomiya, they would know what secrets this mysterious force had.
But the problem is...
After all, this is a very risky thing, and it is impossible to just find a few girls to take the risk. If they knew the seriousness of the matter, I am afraid that few girls would be willing to take the risk.
A man dressed as a woman?
Stop it.
Wang Longqi and Du Lanke were also in the room at this time. When they heard Li Chu talking about this matter, they offered to help out.
Hearing Li Chu's confusion, both of them had a flash of inspiration in their minds at the same time.
"I know!"
Eh? The Seventh Young Master and Old Du looked at each other, caught a glimpse of the light in each other's eyes, and smiled wisely and sympathetically, like a Crouching Dragon and a Young Phoenix.
"I know a place..." Wang Longqi said with a smile.
"There are only women inside." Lao Du continued.
Wang Longqi said: "And they are all in their prime..."
Lao Du said: "Each of them has unique skills..."
Wang Longqi said: "They are all very self-sacrificing and helpful..."
Lao Du said: "Master has had some dealings with them..."
The more the two people talked, the more alike they looked, as if they were about to open their palms and reveal the word "fire" at the same time.
"This place is..."
"Brothel!"
"Guanghan Sect!"
Eh? Wang Longqi and Lao Du blinked at the same time, then smiled awkwardly.
It's all wrong.
Lao Du said, "The girls in the brothel are definitely unreliable. They don't have any cultivation skills, and we can't send them into the monster den just because they are good girls, right? Even if the master is guarding them the whole time, there won't be any big problems... But it's better to be safe than sorry. The female cultivators of Guanghan Sect have the ability to protect themselves, so they are more suitable."
Wang Longqi said: "As long as you pay the money, the good girls can be invited. Anyway, they are protected by Li Chu. It's just a matter of going in for a walk. There is no way anything could go wrong. The female cultivators of Guanghan Sect are naturally more powerful than them, but why would they help you?"
Lao Du spread his hands and said, "Because the master is handsome."
Seeing him act as if it was a matter of course, Wang Longqi was stunned for a moment.
There's really no way to refute that.
"Yes, asking Guanghan Sect for help is indeed a feasible method."
Li Chu thought about it, didn't hesitate, stood up and walked out the door.
…
When Li Chu visited Guanghan Sect again, he was treated much more warmly. After all, he helped Guanghan Sect. Although it was an equal exchange, the favor was there. Moreover, the strength he showed in the ice and snow secret realm last time was enough to make any force look at him with new eyes.
This time he was directly taken to Elder Yao Chi. After explaining his purpose, Elder Su Xin agreed without hesitation.
"Hunting human girls... no matter what the purpose is, it is an unforgivable crime. For such demons, we cultivators should enforce justice on behalf of heaven. Even if Taoist Xiao Li didn't mention it, my Guanghan Sect will not tolerate their evil deeds anymore since we know about it. This time, my sect will send several elders to fight with you."
The Guanghan Sect is indeed worthy of being one of the Twelve Immortal Sects, and the sense of responsibility of its disciples is impeccable.
After she spoke generously, she told Biluo: "Take Taoist Xiao Li to pick a girl."
"Yes." Biluo replied.
Then he took Li Chu to the hall of another mountain.
Li Chu was sitting on a rattan chair and saw Biluo go out for a while. Then she came in with a row of a dozen Guanghan Sect disciples with smiling faces.
Seeing Li Chu, the girls' eyes were filled with expectation, and they all shouted, "Hello, Taoist Priest Li."
Looking at these female disciples lined up in front of him, Li Chu examined them carefully and frowned slightly.
Seeing this, Biluo hurriedly said, "Is Taoist Master Xiao Li not satisfied? If you are not satisfied, then I will go out and call another group of sisters in. The elder has ordered that you must choose until you are satisfied."
Li Chu hesitated for a moment, but did not say anything. Instead, he raised his hand and pointed at two of them, "These two can stay. I'm sorry for the other girls. It's a waste of time."
The two female cultivators who were chosen were naturally smiling with joy, while those who were not chosen were very disappointed and walked out with Biluo in disappointment.
Not long after, Biluo came in with a new group of female practitioners.
As soon as the girls entered the room, they all said in unison again: "Hello, Taoist Priest Xiao Li..."
Li Chu looked at it again.
This time, he only selected one.
Change another batch.
Biluo stepped forward and said, "Master Xiao Li, why don't you tell me the selection criteria? I will help you call more sisters who meet the requirements, so that we can save time."
Li Chu thought about it and said, "No need, just pick a few more times."
The reason why he didn't say it was because his selection criteria was...ugly.
After years of practice, although the natural facial shape of female cultivators cannot be changed, most of them have fair skin and graceful temperament. As long as their innate conditions are not too bad, they are most likely beauties.
But that's the problem.
When those monsters wanted to capture human girls, they would go to the wild mountains and wilderness to look for them. The wilder and more remote the better. Because Chaotianque was stationed in large cities, it was too dangerous to commit crimes.
As a result, most of the girls they captured were farm girls, and even the most beautiful ones were not that good looking.
These Guanghan Sect disciples are all fair-skinned and beautiful, and if they were suddenly sent over, they would inevitably reveal their flaws.
However, this standard cannot be stated out loud.
Asking someone to help you go to a dangerous place, and you still say that the reason I chose you is because you are ugly...
This is a bit too inhumane.
After some selection, Li Chu struggled to choose the short ones from the tall ones, and selected ten of them... They couldn't be said to be ugly, but they just had ordinary looks.
On that day, he brought the three elders of Guanghan Sect and the ten female disciples back to Yaowang Town.
…
The next morning.
In the distant sky, a cloud with an evil aura floated over.
The three Guanghan Sect elders with frosty faces all held swords in their hands, and the female disciples behind them also drew out their flying swords and magical weapons.
"Don't draw your sword! We're on the same side!"
"Master Xiao Li...it's us!"
A familiar voice came from the cloud. Li Chu signaled everyone to stay calm, and then the evil cloud fell lightly to the ground.
The Lion King, the Precious Elephant King, the Black Eagle King...
The three little ones raised their hands high and trotted to Li Chu with flattering smiles on their faces.
When the disciples of Guanghan Sect saw this, they all felt somewhat disillusioned.
These demon kings, who obviously have high cultivation levels, were also very arrogant when displaying their magical powers. But how come they acted like domesticated animals in front of Taoist Master Li... Is there something wrong?
"These people are my accomplices in the Golden State. They have endured humiliation and made many contributions during this period." Li Chu introduced them to everyone.
"How can we say that we should endure humiliation? We are all doing this for justice and for world peace! It is the lofty ideal that brings us together!"
The three little ones also answered righteously.
Judging from his posture, it seemed that he might raise his hand to salute at any time and then hand over an application for admission.
The Guanghan Sect's disciples didn't trust the three demon kings, but they trusted Li Chu very much. Seeing that Li Chu was so familiar with them, they let down their guard a little.
"Those people will go to Utsunomiya with the three demon kings, and I and the three elders will follow closely behind them." Li Chu said.
"Okay." The ten female disciples of Guanghan Sect nodded one after another.
"Okay, then I'm sorry, everyone! I'm sorry! Sorry!" The three little ones apologized politely while casting a spell to subdue the ten female disciples and then carried them to the clouds.
With another finger gesture, the demon cloud rose into the sky and flew far away towards the Golden State. Li Chu and the three elders of Guanghan Sect followed closely behind.
Let’s just talk about the three little ones.
Soon they arrived at the mountains of the Golden State. On the highest peak, there was a huge and extremely conspicuous bronze palace.
It is the legendary Utsunomiya.
The palace is located on a cliff, with an ancient atmosphere and a sharp aura, as if it can be pulled out like a sword at any time.
It makes people feel cold just by looking at it.
If they were not forced to do so, with the strength of the Three Kings Ridge, they would not want to have any contact with Utsunomiya. In the entire Golden State, there is probably no demon king who does not have a deep fear of this strange force and is unwilling to set foot there.
But this time, life forced me to come.
As agreed, they brought the girls straight to the gate of the bronze palace. Before anyone could knock on the door, the gate burst open.
Inside was a large hall with a very high dome, cold and empty, without a trace of human presence.
It is said that a dozen demon kings came to Utsunomiya together and entered the hall together. From the outside, the hall was empty. But as soon as they entered, the door of the hall closed with a bang. When it was opened again, blood was flowing inside.
The emptier it is, the scarier it is, and no one knows where danger will appear.
"Mr. Envoy?" King Xuan Diao called out and walked in, feeling quite frightened.
After a while, a few light footsteps were heard from the palace.
"Everyone stays here, you can go." A cold command.
A shadow in a black robe appeared in the depths of the hall. It was the messenger who had previously contacted Sanwangling.
"Okay." The Lion King agreed.
Then the Precious Elephant King asked, "Master Envoy, I wonder what you are going to do with these human women?"
"Hmm?" The messenger raised his eyes and said sternly, "What does this have to do with you three?"
"It's okay, my second brother is just very curious. Hehe, we naturally won't ask about things that we shouldn't ask." King Xuan Diao hurriedly tried to smooth things over.
"Actually... it's okay to tell you. After all, we still have to cooperate in the future." The messenger thought for a moment and said, "These women will be sent to Ziyuan."
"Shiyuan?" The Black Eagle King blinked, "There is Shiyuan in Utsu Palace?"
…
In Yaowang Town, just as Li Chu's figure disappeared into the dust with a sword, in the attic not far away, a hidden figure quietly closed the window.
"Madam, that young Taoist priest with extraordinary cultivation has gone far away." Fangfang whispered.
"Hmm..." Wen Xiang, the ninth lady of Prince Han's Mansion, nodded when she heard this.
During the few days that Li Chu was in Yaowang Town, the master and servant did not dare to make any rash moves and just observed the few people silently.
Now that Li Chu has left, they dare to make some moves.
"I learned something from Doctor Lang before. It seems that this group of people came to Yaowang Town to help the contact person detoxify some poison." Wen Xiang murmured.
"But after these days of observation, I have reason to suspect that the reason they want to save the contact person is to interrogate him for information about the mountain!"
"Otherwise, why would they strictly control the contact persons' contact with us? Why would they treat the contact persons so roughly?"
"Although the young Taoist priest is gone, his disciple... the old Taoist priest is also a bit weird. I don't want him to do anything bad. It seems that I have to be ruthless this time... Did you get everything I asked you to get?"
"I got it." Fangfang took out a medicine bottle. "I got it from a young disciple in Yaowang Town. It's specially used to anesthetize large monsters...Nine Fragrance Soul-Losing Powder."
"Just a pinch mixed into water can intoxicate more than a dozen monsters. If used on a human... it will definitely put them to sleep forever."
Wenxiang opened a clay pot beside her, and there was a fragrant smell inside, which seemed to be a pot of soup.
"Pour," she ordered.
Fangfang sprinkled the powder into the soup.
"Pour some more." Wen Xiang felt uneasy and gave another order.
Fangfang poured in another large lump.
"Just put it all in..." Wen Xiang said with a frown.
Fangfang then poured the entire bottle of medicine powder into it.
"Are you sure you can poison him? Do I need to..." Wen Xiang felt a little uneasy when she thought of the ghostly Taoist priest.
Fangfang held her hand and said, "Madam, it's almost done. There's almost no soup left in the medicine."
"Okay." Wen Xiang nodded reluctantly, "Then go ahead. I don't know when the little Taoist priest will be back. Hurry up."
"Okay!" Fangfang nodded heavily.
The master and servant looked at each other, their eyes filled with the tragic heroism of dying if they failed.
Fangfang walked to the attic where Wang Longqi was, carrying a soup bowl, and asked in a tender voice, "Master Du, are you there?"
"Miss Fangfang, is there something wrong?" Du Lanke came out and asked when he saw the little girl he hadn't seen for a few days standing outside the door.
"I was making soup for my wife, and there happened to be some leftover, so I served an extra bowl and wanted to give it to you to try."
"Oh, the girl is thoughtful." Lao Du happily took the soup bowl, opened it and looked puzzled, "This soup... is so thick."
Fangfang blinked and smiled, "What I gave you... are all useful stuff."
