Chapter 123 Jiang Ning and Zuo Qiuting

Li Weiyi was surprised. During their previous encounter on the boat, he always felt that Zhuang Yue was arrogant and looked down on others. This time, he finally realized that she was a straightforward person who would not play the game of hypocrisy or hiding a dagger behind a smile.

This kind of person has a very clear understanding of good and evil, and is clear about what he loves and hates, with no gray area.

Fortunately, I am in Luantai. If I were in the chaotic world, I would definitely not be alive today.

Put away the insect tube.

After Li Weiyi escaped for a while, he shouted from a distance: "Don't just fight hard. If you can't win, let's run away together."

"What a stubborn person!"

Whispering, he opened the insect tube as he fled.

Inside the insect tube, there is a colorful mist, which is very gorgeous.

Seven Phoenix-winged Moth Kings are eating the leaves of a Dyed Clouds Herb.

When they found that the insect tube was open, seven pairs of eyes looked towards Li Weiyi outside. After chirping for a while, they continued to eat on their own.

Li Weiyi's face darkened instantly. "All you care about is food?" He was not excited at all about his master's return. No wonder he was easily kidnapped.

However, Jiang Ning and Zhuang Yue are indeed arrogant.

Li Weiyi sold the rare treasure of the Dyeing Cloud Medicine for 100 million copper coins, and Yin Ershiwu readily bought it. It can be imagined that if it is taken to a place outside of Lizhou and a higher price is offered, someone will definitely buy it.

They feed it to insects.

The good news is that the body length of the seven Phoenix-winged Moth Kings has reached two inches.

"It's really strange. Why didn't Zhuang Yue release them to fight against Shi Shishi together? Could it be that... she didn't know that the combat power of the seven Phoenix-winged Moth Kings had reached the level of the Five Seas Realm, and thought that they couldn't help?"

Li Weiyi felt that this possibility was very high.

Siege is useful at any level.

If the six Buddha thieves from before could join forces and cooperate more tacitly, they would definitely be enough to give Li Weiyi a hard time.

The seven Phoenix-winged Moth Kings are definitely not comparable to those six Buddha thieves.

The six Buddhas who saved thieves mostly used seven springs to break five seas.

The combat power of the seven emperor-level strange insects is completely comparable to that of the inheritor seeds of Baimai Quanyin at the same level. They may be inferior to the inheritor seeds in combat methods, magic tools, and wisdom, but they can make up for it with their extraordinary defense and speed.

There was a sharp sound of breaking wind behind me.

Li Weiyi's expression changed slightly and he quickly turned around to look.

Zhuang Yue stepped on the energy of the law, and her speed was as fast as a white mark, constantly closing the distance between them. Further away, Shi Shishi performed a jumping technique, and every time he jumped up, it was like a cannonball flying out, and could cross a distance of dozens of feet.

His body is like a spring.

"What do you mean?" Li Weiyi asked nervously.

Zhuang Yue chased him to within ten feet of him. She was seriously injured and her breathing was disordered. She bit her teeth and asked, "If you can't beat me, then I will run away with you?"

"I didn't ask you to escape to my side." Li Weiyi said depressedly.

Zhuang Yue was even more depressed than him and said, "You didn't explain it clearly! I thought you wanted me to follow you so that we could escape together."

In Zhuang Yue's opinion, "Sima Qin" is a heroic figure with a strong sense of responsibility and who is not afraid of sacrifice, so she thought that what he shouted meant "If we die, we die together; if we escape, we escape together."

“Wow!”

Shi Shishi flew over the two men's heads like a big fat bird, and landed in front of them with a bang, raising dust under his feet.

Li Weiyi slid forward two meters before he finally stopped.

Zhuang Yue stopped a little behind him, knowing that it would be difficult for her to escape today, and a cloud of magical energy emanated from her body as she prepared herself for the battle.

Shi Shishi smiled and said, "Brother Sima, are you also from the Jiuli Hidden Sect?"

"I don't understand what you are saying, but you better be careful, King Shishi. My Sima Qin may not be as good as yours, but I have another identity."

Li Weiyi opened the insect tube, and a phoenix-winged moth king flapped its wings and flew out.

"Insect Master!"

“Chichi!”

The two-inch-long body of the Phoenix-winged Moth King grows rapidly, and its wings and membranous wings reach three feet in length, transforming into a giant moth emitting colorful glass light.

The six claws seem to be forged from metal, and the hooks are as sharp as spears.

This Phoenix-winged Moth King is the eldest of the seven little ones and is good at bluffing.

In King Cang's Tomb, when Li Weiyi faced it for the first time, it appeared in this huge image, releasing the aura fluctuations of a martial artist in the Immortal Realm, and even the three masters were almost frightened.

Li Weiyi had communicated with it using telekinesis just now, so there was no need to release the aura of the Immortal Realm level. That would be too fake and would easily arouse suspicion. The fifth level of the Five Seas Realm would be enough.

The three-foot-long body, which was made of metal and glass, slowly crawled towards Shi Shishi, making a loud "chirp" sound from its mouth, echoing throughout the wilderness.

Shi Shishi's face changed instantly and he quickly stepped back to keep some distance.

Zhuang Yue sensed the terrifying aura of the Phoenix-winged Moth King and was shocked: "Is this its true strength?"

"nature."

Li Weiyi stood with his hands behind his back, looking confident and contented.

Zhuang Yue held her breath and asked, "What about the other six in the tube?"

"Why should we use all seven strange insects to deal with a seriously injured child?" Li Weiyi said calmly.

The other six were not capable of bluffing at all and were unable to release the aura of strength.

"Strange insects? And there are six of them?"

Shi Shishi instinctively felt that this was strange, but the giant moth that was approaching him had a strong aura and was extremely dangerous. He was considering whether to retreat, when he suddenly saw a sky full of white flying feathers in the distance and a fairy-like figure spreading its wings. His face suddenly changed again.

"Brother Sima, it would be great if a powerful insect warrior like you could join our Earth Wolf King Army. We'll see you later."

Shi Shishi jumped, dived into the ground and disappeared.

Li Weiyi secretly breathed a sigh of relief and quickly put the Phoenix-winged Moth King back into the insect tube. He walked to the place where Shi Shishi had just disappeared. The ground was solid and not hollowed out.

"This earth escape technique is really powerful." he said.

Zhuang Yue said: "Humph, they are just a bunch of rats, otherwise they would have been wiped out by the imperial army long ago."

White magic feathers floated down, and Jiang Ning's feet touched the ground. The white light wings on his back dissipated, and he walked towards the two of them.

She was tall and graceful, wearing green clothes, with full and charming breasts, and a glowing complexion. She had the gorgeous and flawless beauty that only a pure celestial being could have, and every inch of her skin was crystal clear and smooth.

Although they both have pure immortal bodies, there is a huge difference in their temperament and beauty.

Even if Jiang Ning's face was covered with a veil, she would definitely stand out among the women with pure celestial bodies, like a real goddess or fairy appearing in the mortal world.

"Girl, you are Shi Shishi, the adopted son of Shi Naer."

Zhuang Yue stepped forward and bowed to report.

Jiang Ning nodded her head lightly, and her fairy eyes looked at Li Weiyi like blue waves, deep enough to see through all the mysteries in the world: "Did he save you?"

Zhuang Yue responded and stepped forward to express her gratitude to Li Weiyi.

Li Weiyi was surprised. It was a rare thing that a martial artist from Luantai who claimed to be a person from heaven could actually lower his proud head and thank him, a mortal martial artist.

But it was just verbal thanks without any substantive response, which was not in line with Li's expectations.

"No need to thank me. I came here mainly to find these seven little guys." Li Weiyi didn't want to get too involved with them and was about to leave.

The insect tube on the back was washed open.

Seven phoenix-winged moths flew towards Jiang Ning, some landed on her shoulders, some landed on her hair, and some circled around her, even approaching her happily.

A rare doting smile appeared in Jiang Ning's eyes. He took out a rare herb from his sleeves and fed it to them.

"you……"

Li Weiyi tried hard to maintain his composure and did not immediately summon back the seven Phoenix-winged Moth Kings.

Zhuang Yue had a strange look in her eyes, and she took this opportunity to use her magical energy to tell Jiang Ning about the performance of the Phoenix-winged Moth King just now.

Jiang Ning was secretly surprised. It seemed that these seven little guys were more magical than she had expected. After returning to Lingxiao City, she would have to check the classics and the "List of Strange Insects" carefully.

Given her proud nature, she would never do such a thing as killing people to take the insects, but her desire to win over Sima Tan and use him for her own benefit was even stronger.

She tried to make her tone friendly: "I have read a lot of books since I was a child, and I think I have a wide range of knowledge, but I know very little about these seven. What kind of strange insects are they?"

"Colorful spirit moth."

Li Weiyi said the name of a commander-level strange insect that his spiritual master had already thought of for him.

Jiang Ning said, "The five-colored spirit moth is ranked fifth among the commander-level strange insects in the Strange Insect List. When they reach adulthood, seven of them can join forces to fight against immortal martial artists. More importantly, they have a certain degree of ability to summon underground insect swarms. Sima Qin, if you go to Lingxiao City to practice, you will definitely be given special training. Do you have any idea of ​​working for the court?"

It was in Jiang Ning that Li Weiyi truly felt the extraordinary charm and aura of a pure immortal body that was beyond the reach of mortals. It made people feel that she should not be burdened by the mundane world, but should escape from the mortal world to cultivate immortality.

For someone like her to be able to proactively communicate with cultivators of lower realms rather than using a commanding tone, she already thinks she has shown enough sincerity.

Li Weiyi smiled and said, "Thank you for your appreciation, angel. But I don't understand the rules of the court, and I don't like being constrained. I'm afraid I can only be an ungrateful bastard. But I can promise that I will never join the rebels and become an enemy of the court."

It is important to stay away from the court.

It is also important to keep Jiang Ning stable so that she won't see him as a threat and kill him in the cradle.

Being rejected was not surprising, Jiang Ning could understand. But Sima Qin's combat power at the same level was indeed extraordinary, comparable to that of the young ancient emperor, not to mention that he also controlled seven colorful spirit moths.

Then he thought about the wisdom and resilience he had displayed in the Five Seas Realm.

As long as he doesn't die, he will surely rise rapidly within ten years and become a shining new star in the southern border.

She wanted to try again: "Your name is not Sima Qin, right? Your disguise technique has many flaws."

"The angel has extraordinary eyesight. I admire it!"

Li Weiyi smiled awkwardly, and soon realized something, and the figure of Zuo Qiuting appeared in his mind.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Suddenly, everything became clear.

I see.

Zuoqiu Ting must have used the art of disguise, so his face is exactly the same as that of the inheritor of Longmen, and there is a strong sense of disharmony on his body.

Using the art of disguise to change one's face into that of another person is a very difficult task. It requires extremely high levels of cultivation, observation, and attainments in disguise. At least Li Weiyi is far from being able to do it now.

With Zuoqiu Ting's level of cultivation, he could only disguise himself into something that looked like a monster.

Jiang Ning added: "You are not as everyone guessed, from the Far West Ashes Region. You are the real member of the Nine Li Hidden Sect!"

In the Five Seas Realm, Li Weiyi was risking her life to protect the young martial artists of the Jiuli tribe. In her opinion, only the Jiuli tribe members could have such responsibility and commitment, how could the people of the Ashes Region make such sacrifices?

If he is not a cultivator from the Jiuli tribe in public, he can only be from the hidden sect.

Luantai monitors the world, so naturally it has files about the Jiuli Hidden Sect, so Jiang Ning knows that the Jiuli Hidden Sect really exists.

Li Weiyi felt that Jiang Ning was deceiving him, so he denied it flatly.

Jiang Ning firmly believed that his judgment was correct: "It doesn't matter if you don't admit it! What I value is your talent, potential, and mental character. Yes, the Grand Palace Master did do something wrong back then. Xiaotian Ling caused too much harm to you. I can understand that you have a prejudice against the court."

"But there are actually many hidden secrets behind what happened back then. I believe that the Grand Palace Master who worked hard to govern the country, loved the people like her own children, was kind and pure, and radiant with light will come back. The darkness and paranoia are only temporary, and she has the ability to correct her mistakes."

"Ha ha!"

A familiar and hearty laugh rang out.

Zuo Qiuting and Li Ling walked slowly up a small hill not far away and appeared in front of the three people below.

The giant dragonfly appeared with the two of them.

Zuo Qiuting waved his folding fan, looking elegant and graceful, and laughed loudly, "Jiang Ning, you are so bold that you dare to criticize the Grand Palace Master. How many heads do you have to chop off?"

Jiang Ning observed Zuo Qiuting for a moment, recognized him, and said in a melodious voice like the sound of nature: "If she did something wrong, she did something wrong. Why dare not say it? But my respect and admiration for the Grand Palace Master will never change. She just lost herself for a moment and fell into the whirlpool of her heart, which led to a big mistake."

"But don't you forget who was it that created a bright and clear sky for the world amid the death disaster that came from the Netherworld a thousand years ago?"

"At that time, Ling Xiao's three hundred states were defeated step by step, with tens of millions of casualties every day. All the armies and martial artists had no power to resist. The soul cloud of the dead surged past, and the land of an entire state was turned into darkness and death."

"When the people of the world were in the most critical and desperate moment, it was the Grand Palace Master who stood in front with a sword and killed and repelled the army of the dead dozens of times."

"We fought for 90,000 miles in one day, carving out a circle in the boundless cloud of dead souls and the night of the netherworld, which is why we now have the 28 states of Lingxiao."

"But everyone has forgotten all of this. They have forgotten that it was under the leadership of the Grand Palace Master that Lingxiao Habitat prospered again in the past thousand years. They have forgotten that it was because of the Grand Palace Master that the Four Directions Netherworld and the Dead Spirit Demon were intimidated. They have forgotten that without the Grand Palace Master, there would be no Lingxiao Habitat today."

"Without the Grand Palace Master, your Zuoqiu Sect would have disappeared a thousand years ago! Do you admit it?"

Zuo Qiuting looked solemn, nodded and sighed: "I naturally recognize the achievements of the Grand Palace Master. But a thousand years of achievements were destroyed by the three-year Xiaotian Order. In three years, how many people died, how much blood, tears and humiliation were caused? I always believe that if the number one person in the world is not bound, he will be the number one disaster in the world."

Jiang Ning said: "What about the past ten years of war? The number of people who died was much higher than that of the past three years, right? Once the heroes rise up, it will be a ten-year disaster for the people."

"How many of them are true heroes? How many of them are truly working for the common people? I think most of them are just trying to satisfy their own ambitions and interests, just like the crisis that is brewing in Lizhou right now."

Zuo Qiuting said, "If the Grand Palace Master refuses to admit his mistake, then naturally someone has to correct it."

Jiang Ning said: "We should give her some time."

"Giving it three years, I think people in the world are very generous!" Zuoqiu stopped and said.

Jiang Ning asked, "Is your Zuoqiu Sect finally going to join the chess game?"

Zuo Qiu stared at her eyes for a long while, then smiled and said, "I won't tell you! At least so far, Zuo Qiu Sect has done its utmost to treat the Grand Palace Master and Ling Xiao Palace."

With Jiang Ning's personal confirmation, it was clear that Zuoqiu Ting was indeed the successor of the Zuoqiu Sect, and Li Weiyi's worries were slightly reduced.

However, the two of them argued so fiercely and their words were so sharp that they seemed about to fight.

The confrontation at the inheritor level is truly terrifying.

Li Weiyi was afraid of being affected, so he forcibly took back the seven Phoenix-winged Moth Kings, then quickly stepped aside, came to Li Ling, and asked, "Didn't you go to Sanshisanli Mountain?"

Li Ling was very interested in the heated debate between the two people in the distance and said with a smile, "I'll come back to find you."

"Looking for me again?" Li Weiyi was stunned.

Li Ling said, "The latest news is that an old monster in the Immortal Realm has figured out a special method that can send Wuhai Realm first and second realm martial artists into the Thirty-Three Mile Mountain. Master Zuoqiu thinks that you should take action."

"With the power of the Zuoqiu Sect, it shouldn't be difficult to find a pure immortal body master in the second realm of the Five Seas Realm. Why do you have to keep staring at me, a mortal martial artist who has just entered the Five Seas Realm?" Li Weiyi said.

Zuo Qiuting heard this and said from a distance: "It is very difficult for martial artists of the second level of the Five Seas to enter. Zuo Qiu can only send one person in at most. Although you are a beginner in the Five Seas, your combat power is also outstanding in the second level. Naturally, you are the main target of this young master."

Li Weiyi no longer refused outright like he did before. With the help of the power of Zuoqiumen, it would be definitely safer to go to Sanshisanli Mountain than to go alone.

Jiang Ning had no intention of fighting with Zuo Qiuting. When he left, he looked at Li Weiyi and said, "If you change your mind, you can come to me at any time. The imperial court is still the strongest in the world."

Zhuang Yue clasped his fists and said goodbye, then disappeared at the end of the grassland with Jiang Ning.

“Crash!”

Zuo Qiuting closed his folding fan and sighed, "Jiang Ning is an angel of Luantai, a master of the Palace Master level, and a master of the inheritor level of Baimai Quanyin. He has a promising future."

"And I heard that she is one of the three young fairies in the fairy forest, and is called Fairy Yu. She must be extremely beautiful under her veil. Brother Sima, you actually rejected her?"

"Do you know how many heroes and great men in the world wanted to follow her, but she didn't even bother to look at them?"

Li Weiyi smiled and said, "Brother Zuoqiu seems to be very interested in Jiang Ning?"

Zuo Qiu stopped fanning himself and looked in the direction Jiang Ning left: "Who wouldn't love a graceful fairy? But it's a pity that fairies have thorns, and not everyone can be by her side. When I think of this, I feel sorry for Brother Sima."

Li Weiyi stopped smiling and said seriously, "Although Jiang Ning is arrogant and prickly, and hard to get close to, he is still upright."

"She didn't kill you, and took the strange insect, so she was aboveboard? How naive! As a member of the court, if she didn't have extraordinary means, it would be difficult for her to gain a foothold, let alone become an angel of Luantai."

Zuoqiuting flew onto the back of the giant dragonfly and said with a smile, "Let's go. I, Zuoqiuting, am not an upright person, but I can guarantee that you have helped me this time and I have definitely gained a lot of benefits."

The giant dragonfly carried the three people several dozen feet off the ground and flew towards the Sanshisanli Mountain.

Li Weiyi told Li Ling about the predicament of Yongquan Realm martial artists and asked, "What is the situation on the battlefield in your Wuhai Realm?"

Li Ling said: "With the help of a group of mysterious martial artists, my brother and his men have fought their way out of the Five Seas Realm. The road from the Five Seas Realm to Yaoguan City should be open soon."

Zuoqiu Ting had the confidence that only children from high-ranking families have: "Lizhou is the rear base of the southern border, and it is also the backing of Zuoqiu Clan. Don't worry, Zuoqiu Clan will not allow Lizhou to fall into chaos, and will definitely help."

Li Weiyi disagreed: "If Zuoqiu Sect really wanted to help the Jiuli tribe, they would have helped fourteen years ago! What you need is a Lizhou that is not completely collapsed but has internal strife, not a strong and stable Jiuli tribe. I guess that even if you help, you will wait until the Jiuli tribe is seriously injured. Even if the Jiuli tribe fails to withstand this turmoil and collapses, you may turn to support Sui Zong and Sanchen Palace."

Zuo Qiuting stood at the front, holding up a cloud of magical energy to cover the three people. A strange look flashed in his eyes, and he sighed, "Li Ling, you should quickly ask your father to recruit him as the son-in-law of the Li family. If he is kidnapped by Jiang Ning, the Jiuli tribe will suffer a great loss!"

Li Ling said sourly: "It's not possible to abduct him. Some people care about Yao Yin. It might be more attractive to be the son-in-law of the Yao Li tribe."

Li Weiyi smiled bitterly and felt a strong sense of oppression and dullness, as if his heart and lungs were suddenly pinched, making it difficult to breathe.

Look up.

A terrifying black demonic figure with huge red wings, a dragon head and a snake tail, flew through the clouds and mist in the sky, casting a huge shadow on the ground. The area covered by the shadow could accommodate several small hills.

Zuo Qiuting was very calm: "It was a demon cultivator of the Immortal Realm passing by. It's normal. The opportunities in this fairyland space of Zangxian Town are too great, and many old monsters have been attracted here."

"I heard that the Four Great Ape Kings are here!" Li Weiyi was a little worried.

Zuo Qiuting said, "It's okay. We just killed a sixth-generation grandson. The ancestors of my Zuo Qiu sect are here too and can check and balance it."

Half a day later, we arrived at the end of the grassland.

On the horizon, Sanshisanli Mountain is already in sight, shrouded in clouds and mist, and looks majestic and magnificent.

A look of surprise welled up in Li Weiyi's eyes.

…

Happy New Year to everyone! (End of this chapter)
