Chapter 138: Floating Life and Rivers (Four Thousand)
Chu Xiao never expected that someone would do such a heartless thing in order to plot against him.
Using an old man's life as bait, if he hadn't been warned by the Immortal-Slaying Spear, he would have been in trouble if he had been caught in the trap out of carelessness.
Even with Chu Xiao's temper, he couldn't help but reveal a bit of anger at this moment.
The crowd around was in chaos, but there were many brave and curious people who not only did not run away quickly, but also wanted to come closer to see what was going on.
"Don't get close to them, they're poisonous!"
Seeing this, Chu Xiao immediately shouted at them and forced them to leave.
The imperial city patrol arrived in time. After listening to Chu Xiao's explanation, they immediately cordoned off the scene without any hesitation, trying to find out who secretly poisoned the person.
However, how could ordinary people find it?
Seeing that the situation was not good, the evil cultivator hiding in the dark had already fled.
The evil cultivator disguised himself as an ordinary person and blended into the crowd to escape the scene, and the terrified expressions on the faces of passers-by were performed very well.
They thought that even if they failed, it would not be a big deal, but they overlooked one point, that is, there is a powerful protector behind Chu Xiao!
If they hide and don't reveal their identities, Lai Yang and others will be unable to do anything to them.
I didn't expect that they would be so stupid as to want to take revenge on the people of Wenxian Sect.
The aura from the old man was enough for a powerful immortal to easily lock onto the target.
After wandering around for a while, the evil cultivator looked around vigilantly, and then entered a house that could not be more ordinary.
And in the basement of the house, there is a hidden cellar where several Kuizong disciples are hiding.
"How's it going? Did you succeed?"
"You don't look very well. It seems that the assassination attempt has failed. I told you it wouldn't work."
"Hintsight, when did you say that?"
"Don't make things more complicated. We have to find a way to get those three seventh-level puppets back. The loss this time is so great, I'm afraid the sect won't let us off."
"The security in the city has been too tight recently, and with those people from the Wenxian Sect still here, it will be hard to have a chance to take action in a short period of time. We'd better wait until they leave before taking action. Those people from the Wenxian Sect won't be able to stay for long."
"Tsk, the superiors took away the ancestors of others, not to mention that there was no benefit, and asked a few of us to stay and clean up the mess. Now we have lost the puppet and almost lost our lives."
"Humph, instead of complaining uselessly here, why don't you think about what we should do next."
Several people from Kui Zong discussed the matter in secret.
Someone with keen senses suddenly said, "There should be four of us left this time, right? I remember one of our brothers was captured, right?"
"Nonsense, why are you suddenly saying this?"
"We should only have three of us, but why do we have four of us now?" The man looked at the other three and said with a horrified expression.
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts, and their vigilance reached its peak in an instant.
They didn't have time to figure out who their teammates were. They only knew they had been discovered and subconsciously wanted to escape.
However, it is of no use and is doomed to fail.
A vast and terrifying pressure from a certain realm descended upon the three Kui Zong disciples, forcing them to kneel on the ground, with crisp bone-crack sounds coming from their knees.
The huge collision caused the ground to sink and crack.
"ah!!!"
Feeling the terrifying aura emanating from the other party, the three people from Kui Zong suddenly broke out in a sweat, and the fear of death struck their hearts.
"Who are you?"
"Senior, we have no grudges against each other, why are you treating us like this?"
"You two idiots, you brought your enemies back home and you're still asking others who they are."
The guardian of the Wenxian Sect said calmly: "I am just an ordinary old man. I don't eat people. You don't have to be afraid."
"In that case, could this senior please let us go? We can give you whatever you want."
"Haha, whether to spare you or not is not up to me, an old man. I'm just an old man working for others." The protector of Wenxian Sect showed a kind smile.
However, in the eyes of the three people, his smile at this moment was no different from a devil's smile full of torture, which was chilling.
After a while, Lai Yang and others arrived here.
He saw the old man sitting and leisurely drinking tea, then glanced at the three people kneeling on the ground with expressions like dead horses, and immediately laughed.
Lai Yang stepped forward quickly and bowed to the old man politely: "I am Lai Yang, the elder of Yuanyang Mountain of Wenxian Sect. Nice to meet you, senior."
Seeing Lai Yang saluting to Elder Zhan, Li Xiaowen and Li Xiaonuan also immediately stepped forward to salute and said in unison: "I am Li Xiaowen (Li Xiaonuan), the direct disciple of Wenxian Sect, and I am honored to meet you, Senior."
"I guess you are the one who has been protecting us in secret." Lai Yang said.
"You are quite polite, little guy. My surname is Zhan. If you don't mind, you can call me Old Zhan. Well, you have caught the person. You can handle it yourself." A kind smile appeared on Old Zhan's face. The look in his eyes was as if he was looking at a promising younger generation, which made people feel friendly.
"Okay." Lai Yang nodded, turned his head and looked at the three people from Kuizong who were kneeling on the ground with their cultivation sealed, and couldn't help but feel funny.
"Sir, who are these people?" Li Xiaonuan asked subconsciously.
"Of course they are the evil cultivators we have been looking for. If they keep hiding from me, I really can't do anything to them."
"Just in case, I informed this senior half a month ago."
"After all, this is your training. Seniors will not easily help you unless it is the last moment."
"And now is a special situation. I am worried that the evil cultivator will take revenge on you in private while you are alone, so I made an appointment with the senior."
"Once we separate, he will go protect someone else."
"In my impression, most evil cultivators are vindictive and narrow-minded people."
"I just wanted to take some insurance, but I didn't expect them to actually make another move. They actually jumped into my plan."
Lai Yang explained.
"That's good now. It saves a lot of trouble."
Lai Yang brought the three back to Baili Fu's palace.
When seeing Lai Yang and others capture the three evil cultivators of Kuizong, everyone couldn't help but be shocked.
They searched almost the entire imperial city but couldn't find anyone, and yet they managed to capture her alive. Doesn't this make them seem incompetent?
Lai Yang handed over the people of Kui Zong to Baili Fu.
Soon, when Baili Fu came back and saw Lai Yang and others again, his face still did not look very good.
"From their memories, we know many secret bases of Kui Zong hidden in the Fu Sheng Dynasty, but the bad news is that they don't know where the remains of our ancestors were taken. The person who took action is more powerful and has a higher status than them. He is a core elder of Kui Zong."
"If we want to successfully take back our ancestor's remains, we must find the whereabouts of the elder of Kui Sect."
From the sound of it, I still have to go back to the Wenxian Sect to ask Lan Qingxian's opinion and try to use the power of the Wenxian Mirror to find that person.
"I knew it wasn't that simple." Lai Yang sighed helplessly.
"I still need to trouble you to persuade the sect master to lend me a helping hand. Once we find our ancestor, I will definitely not let you down."
Lai Yang nodded slightly.
"When do you plan to leave? I have decided to let my fourth daughter Baili Xun accompany you back to the Wenxian Sect."
"In that case, let's set off immediately without further delay."
"Okay, I will order someone to prepare to set off with you."
Soon, Baili Xun and a group of guards appeared in front of everyone.
Baili Xun was wearing a goose yellow dress, with her long flowing hair tied into two ponytails, which swayed naturally as she walked, full of unique charm.
Baili Xun's eyes swept over everyone, and he walked up to Baili Fu and said seriously, "Father, I am ready."
"Well, remember that you are representing our entire Fusheng Dynasty on this trip, so don't be impolite in front of the Wenxian Sect." Baili Fu warned.
"I will keep this in mind."
"Go ahead."
After the father and daughter had a brief conversation, Baili Xun came to Chu Xiao's side naturally, and said with a smile on her beautiful face: "Thank you for taking care of me during this trip, Mr. Chu."
Chu Xiao nodded with a somewhat unnatural look.
Suddenly, Lai Yang seemed to smell a hint of gossip. There must be a story between these two people.
But now is not the time for gossip, business is important.
Lai Yang raised his hand and summoned a flying spirit ship, saying, "Get on board, we're about to set off."
Everyone boarded the spirit ship one after another, and then Lai Yang controlled the spirit ship to take off and returned to the Wenxian Sect at full speed.
A few days later, everyone returned to the Wenxian Sect safely.
Under the guidance of Lai Yang and others, Baili Xun and others were not blocked and successfully arrived at the fairy peak where Lan Qingxian lived.
"Master, we are back." Li Xiaonuan shouted happily.
At this time, Lan Qingxian's voice sounded slowly: "Come back if you want to. Don't make a fuss. It's disrespectful. Others will say that the Wenxian Sect has no rules."
Li Xiaonuan stuck out her tongue playfully: "Sorry, Master, I forgot because I was so happy."
"Well, come in and talk."
After getting Lan Qingxian's permission, everyone dared to actually step into Lan Qingxian's place of meditation. They couldn't help but feel very nervous.
Soon, everyone saw Lan Qingxian.
Li Xiaowen, Li Xiaonuan, and Chu Xiao immediately stepped forward and clasped their fists: "Disciple greets Master."
Seeing this, Baili Xun was surprised. They were actually the direct disciples of the leader of Wenxian Sect! ?
Didn't Chu Xiao call this Elder Lai Yang "Master"? I didn't expect that he would actually ask the disciple of Lan Qingxian, the leader of the Immortal Sect.
Afterwards, Lai Yang stepped forward and greeted him in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "Greetings, Sect Master."
Finally, Baili Xun and others came forward and greeted respectfully.
"Fusheng Dynasty Baili Xun, meet the leader of Wenxian Sect."
"Well, you brought back the people from the Fu Sheng Dynasty. I guess you ran into a lot of trouble."
Lai Yang nodded, and then told Lan Qingxian what had happened in the past few days.
After listening to Lai Yang and others' story, Lan Qingxian hesitated for a moment and asked, "Have the people from Kui Zong appeared again?"
"I already know about this. Since the Fusheng Dynasty is affiliated with the Wenxian Sect, there is no reason for me to sit idly by. Do you have anything related to the remains of your ancestors?" Lan Qingxian looked at Baili Xun and others and asked in a cold and pleasant voice.
"Yes, our ancestor's body and coffin were stolen, so we brought his sword." Baili Fu respectfully handed over the sword.
Lan Qingxian raised his hand and sucked the sword into his palm and made it float. Although it had become thin, there was still a lot of aura left on it, which should be enough.
"You wait here, I will go and ask the Immortal Mirror."
"I, Baili Xun, on behalf of the Fusheng Dynasty, would like to thank your clan for its great help. We will never forget your kindness."
Lan Qingxian raised his hand and broke through the void, heading to where the Immortal Mirror was.
After Lan Qingxian left, Baili Xun and the others breathed a sigh of relief, and the pressure around them was immediately relieved a lot.
"Actually, you don't need to be so nervous. Master is very easy to talk to." Li Xiaonuan said comfortingly.
Baili Xun smiled and said, "We have heard of Sect Master Lan's reputation for a long time. It is natural to feel a little nervous when meeting him. "
Are you kidding? This is a truly powerful figure, on the same level as the ancestors of their Fu Sheng Dynasty. How can they not be nervous?
And don't be fooled by the stunning appearance of Sect Master Lan, his methods are even more terrifying. They have heard a lot about the deeds of this Sect Master of the Wenxian Sect since they were young.
How could a woman who could become the master of the Upper Immortal Sect be simple?
Everyone chatted while waiting quietly.
Half an hour later, Lan Qingxian appeared in front of everyone again. She threw the photo stone in her hand to Baili Xun and said calmly, "Someone tried to confuse the heavens. I used some tricks to determine the approximate location. If you want to take back the body, it may not be an easy task."
"No matter what the cost, we must take back the remains of our ancestors, otherwise how will others view our Fusheng Dynasty?" Baili Xun shouted firmly, "Please help us, we come here with sincerity. If you have any instructions, please speak up."
Lan Qingxian looked at everyone calmly and said slowly, "In that case, go back and tell Baili Fu that I can help you get back your ancestor's remains, but as a reward, I need you to take out the Floating Rivers and Mountains Map. After that, I will let these disciples of mine go in and practice for a year."
Upon hearing this, Baili Xun and others' expressions changed slightly.
The Floating Life River and Mountain Map is the most precious treasure of the Floating Life Dynasty. There is a special small world hidden inside. It is also the foundation of their Floating Life Dynasty. Its importance is equal to that of the Questioning Immortal Mirror to the Questioning Immortal Sect.
Except for members of the royal family, no one is qualified to access the Map of Floating Life and Rivers.
Baili Xun didn't expect that Lan Qingxian would use the Floating Life River and Mountain Map as the price and ask for Chu Xiao and others to go in and practice for a year.
"This matter concerns the foundation of our Fu Sheng Dynasty. Please forgive me for not being able to agree to it immediately. We need to go back and discuss the decision with our father." Baili Xun said awkwardly.
"Yes." Lan Qingxian naturally understood the importance of the Fu Sheng Jiang Shan Tu to the Fu Sheng Dynasty.
The Map of Floating Life and Rivers contains the cultivation insights of the powerful men of the Floating Life Dynasty. Everyone who has entered the Map of Floating Life and Rivers will inevitably make great progress in strength after coming out.
If not for this, she really would look down on it.
