Bahuang City
Inside the cave at the top of Wuyun Mountain!
Xue Bingli was wearing a water blue robe with her long hair draped over her shoulders. Her previous cold and icy face was gone, and her pretty face was full of laziness.
A maid in a green skirt knelt on the ground respectfully and reported: "Master, the newly joined insect Taoist and corpse Taoist have respectively accepted the task of expelling insects from the Beast Taming Valley and extracting demonic energy from the Demon Cave. Apart from wandering around the city for a while, they have not made any other moves."
"During this period, Taoist Qi Yuan once invited Taoist Shi to go on a mission, but he refused firmly. This person behaved very cautiously and would not easily have any contact with others!"
Xue Bingli chuckled when she heard this: "Isn't that what demonic cultivators do? Brothers are all very cautious with each other, so how could they go on a mission with someone they just met? They accept ordinary missions while trying to blend in here, while secretly observing the situation around them. It's normal that they are on guard."
"Yes!" The maid continued, "According to the spies in the Demon Cave, when the corpse Taoist was extracting the magic energy, he set up a formation to prevent others from spying. He was very defensive, and no one could figure out what he did. However, the magic energy in the mine disappeared after he extracted it, which was much stronger than the extraction methods of ordinary people. He himself revealed that he absorbed the magic energy by refining corpses!"
"Refine corpses to absorb demonic energy? That makes sense!" Xue Bingli nodded slightly: "Anything else?"
"Yes!" The maid said with a look of surprise, "The Insect Taoist released tens of millions of third-level gold-eating ants in the Beast Taming Valley with a wave of his hand, which scared Wu Ming and others."
"Ten million?"
Xue Bingli couldn't help but take a breath when he heard this.
Although gold-eating ants are just one of the most common spiritual insects, their abilities are not bad, and only a few can be cultivated to the third level.
Once tens of millions of third-order gold-eating ants form a formation to encircle and suppress the cultivator, unless a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage uses teleportation to escape in advance, even a cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage will suffer a lot.
Even the Insect Taoist only exposed the Gold-Eating Ants, and no one knows what other cards he has. This is the most frightening thing!
"The demon cultivator is indeed a demon cultivator. The strength of the corpse cultivator cannot be confirmed yet, but this insect cultivator definitely has the combat power to fight against a late Nascent Soul cultivator." Xue Bingli commented seriously, "Don't underestimate him!"
"Will this be a threat to you, my master?" the maid asked worriedly.
"Not really." Xue Bingli sneered disdainfully, "Although their intention to join the Loose Cultivator Alliance is still unknown, it is probably just because they have too many enemies in the outside world and want to hide away here. They can't threaten me for the time being, so just keep watching."
"Also, send a message to the sect, and have them investigate the true identities of the Insect Taoist and the Corpse Taoist. They must have hidden their names. Let's see if there is any demon cultivator in the Wanxing Sea who is somewhat similar to them!"
"yes!"
The maid retreated silently after hearing this.
Xue Bingli picked up the teacup beside her and took a sip. A glimmer of light flashed in her lazy eyes, and then gradually returned to silence!
…
Taichu Holy Land
The Peach Blossom Spring in the Back Mountain!
A middle-aged scholar and a beautiful woman in palace dress sat opposite each other. Their faces were expressionless and the atmosphere was as solemn and murderous as if it had been frozen for ten thousand years. Even the butterflies, birds and animals around them did not dare to approach.
"Friend Xu, should you give me an explanation?" The woman in palace dress said angrily while playing chess, "I handed my nephew over to you to take care of him, but you couldn't even protect his safety. Isn't this a bit too much?"
"Susu, this matter is not my fault." The middle-aged scholar smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Chu Zhan and Wei Han have a cause and effect. He had said that he would deal with him early on, but he was killed by Wei Han in one move at the canonization ceremony of the Holy Son. How do you want me to deal with such a shameful thing?"
"snort!"
The woman in palace dress was choked and speechless for a long time.
She is a descendant of the Chu family, an ancient immortal clan in Dongzhou. Chu Zhan is her blood nephew. He was originally a child of destiny who was highly regarded by their lineage and was cultivated with untold hardships.
But who would have thought that Chu Zhan would fall in the Sea of Ten Thousand Stars!
What's even more ridiculous is that he died in a fight with someone, and was killed with just one strike. When the Chu family heard the news, they were almost mad with anger, and their lineage was ridiculed and its reputation plummeted.
Now the Chu family had neither reason to cause trouble for Wei Han nor an excuse to save face. Having suffered such a loss, Chu Susu would naturally come to the door to demand an explanation.
“Haha!” Chu Susu’s face changed slightly, and she squinted her eyes and said, “Fellow Daoist Xu, do you think that my Chu family is blind and deaf? The battle between Chu Zhan and Wei Han seemed flawless and there was no fault to be found, but do you dare to say that it wasn’t the major sacred places in Wanxinghai who pushed my stupid nephew to die?”
"You are absolutely responsible for this matter. Now our Chu family has no excuse to cause trouble for Zixiao Holy Land, but we definitely have reason to cause trouble for you, Xu Feng!"
"If you don't give us an explanation today, our friendship of many years will be severed. Then you can just wait for our Chu family's revenge!"
The middle-aged scholar's face suddenly changed when he heard this.
On the surface, this matter was a fight between Chu Zhan and Wei Han, but in reality, the Taichu Holy Land and the Wanxinghai Holy Land were all fanning the flames from behind, and even intentionally facilitated the fight between the Chu family and the Zixiao Holy Land, with the intention of suppressing Wei Han, the rising freak.
But how could the Chu family not see through all this?
This ancient immortal clan is full of shrewd old monsters who can see through the other party's calculations at a glance. Therefore, Chu Susu came to Xu Feng to settle the score with a clear conscience this time.
"The Chu family cannot lose face!" Chu Susu picked up the teacup and said in a deep voice: "Please ask Brother Xu to find a way to give an explanation. If you can't give it, our Chu family doesn't mind finding face ourselves."
"Okay!" The middle-aged scholar pondered for a moment and said bitterly: "Three months. If I can't give the Chu family an explanation within three months, Wu will voluntarily be imprisoned in the Chu family's sacred mountain for five hundred years to save your family's reputation."
"I hope you can keep your word." Chu Susu let out a long sigh. After putting down the last chess piece with her slender jade hand, she easily stepped into the void and disappeared.
She didn't ask Xu Feng what he was going to do!
But she knew that since the other party had already made a promise, the matter was likely to be successful. Whether for his own benefit or because of the pressure from the Chu family, Xu Feng had to do his best to save his face.
She knew very well how evil Xu Feng was.
He seems to be inconspicuous, but his mind is notoriously terrifying. He can kill the enemy without knowing it. It is most appropriate to describe him as having a wisdom as devilish.
With Xu Feng personally taking charge of the planning, great things can be accomplished!
"Wei Han from the Purple Sky Holy Land? Interesting. I'm looking forward to seeing the day when you get into trouble." Chu Susu's chuckle and murmur gradually dissipated in the wind.
