Chapter 334 The Successor of Longmen in the Last Sixty Years
Li Weiyi wondered whether he should pretend to be an old stubborn person with a weird temper and refuse directly.
The girl's voice sounded again: "Madam said that the spiritual master of the evil cult has died of spontaneous combustion of spiritual fire."
Qi Xiao and Tuoba Butuo could no longer laugh. The other party had obviously realized that the people the Dao Cult was looking for were them. Perhaps they had been noticed when they boarded the ship.
This makes people feel a little chilly! "The Taishi family has a very smart and powerful person with profound cultivation." Tuoba Butuo reminded.
Qi Xiao suddenly thought of something, his expression changed drastically, and he reminded Li Weiyi who had already opened the door: "I know who that lady is! Her surname is Long, she is from Longmen, and she is married to Taishi Qingcang, the number one master under the Taishi family. She is a very powerful figure in the past sixty years. Brother Weiyi, be careful and come back to talk in detail."
When Li Weiyi heard the other party's surname was "Long", he was already overwhelmed, and Qi Xiao had only said half of his words.
The door has been opened and it is difficult to back down.
If I don’t go to meet him now, or get off the boat directly, it will feel like I’m trying to hide something.
The maid, who looked about sixteen or seventeen years old, had bright eyes and jade teeth, and was actually a pure immortal. When she saw Li Weiyi's appearance, she was stunned at first, and then hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, you are so young, I thought that spiritual masters were all seniors who were more than sixty years old!"
Li Weiyi looks to be around thirty years old now.
He secretly sighed in his heart that if he had known that he would be forced to take action and expose his strength, he should have presented himself as an older person.
Li Weiyi bowed and smiled, "Please don't continue to flatter me. In front of the Taishi family, I feel a sense of awe. Lead the way, what's your name, young lady?"
"I don't have a big name, just call me He'er."
The maid found the spiritual master's words very interesting, and was not at all as old-fashioned as those spiritual masters she had met before. She was so amused that she covered her lips and laughed, and walked ahead gracefully to lead the way.
Li Weiyi followed behind and went up the stairs, thinking secretly about the purpose of the other party's summons and the questions that might be asked.
Tai Shi Bai waited at the stairs to show his respect for the guests.
Li Weiyi finally had the chance to take a good look at this member of the Taishi family. He had a pure immortal physique, an imposing bearing, and eyes that were focused. He did not have the slightest sense of being a dandy prince.
He is definitely the perfect dream lover in the hearts of countless women.
On the other hand, Li Weiyi had mortal skin and a slightly chubby face. Although he was dressed neatly and had a straight back, the comparison made him look like a mortal and a banished immortal.
Tai Shi Bai was slightly surprised to see that the other person was so young.
Because the ancestor was a Holy Spirit King Mind Master, with countless disciples and grandchildren. He had seen many spiritual mind masters, but there were only a handful of those who could cultivate to the level of a four-star spiritual mind master at the age of thirty. Even if the other party delayed aging and relaxed the age limit to forty, it was still extremely amazing.
He obviously heard what Li Weiyi said below, and said with a smile: "The Taishi family is in charge of the imperial court's sacrificial rituals and music, but they are not as cruel and bloodthirsty as the cult. Don't be in awe, brother. The situation was critical just now. If you hadn't intervened in time, I don't know how many innocent people would have died. Bai admires such kind and righteous people the most."
Li Weiyi waved his hand and said, "With Master Taishi's cultivation, it would only take a wave of his hand to kill the evil cult's spiritual master."
"Killing is easy, but breaking the spell and removing the evil obstacles are difficult. Please, my mother has been waiting for a long time. What is your name, sir?" Tai Shi Bai made a gesture of invitation and let Li Weiyi go first.
"Zuo Ning!"
How dare Li Weiyi say that he is Sikong Jingyuan? He took a fictitious name.
So far, Tai Shi Bai has left him a very good impression. Although he is one of the most elite people in the big family, he does not have the slightest arrogance.
It can be seen that as long as you have the ability, you can be respected everywhere.
Just as he walked outside the brightly lit main hall, a charming female voice rang out from inside: "Mr. Zuo, are you from the East Territory?"
If the other party is from Longmen, he must be very familiar with the Eastern Territory. Li Weiyi stood outside the door and bowed quickly: "Junior is from Shuzhou in the Southern Territory."
Shuzhou is a remote and vast area, close to the western border, and most of it is desert. The base of the Earth Wolf King Army is there, and it has been in war for many years, and the forces are in chaos.
Sure enough, after Li Weiyi said this, there was silence and no one asked any further questions.
Li Weiyi raised his eyes slightly. Behind the curtain, he could vaguely see a graceful woman sitting in the center. She had a high bun and a long skirt that reached the ground. His age and appearance could not be seen clearly.
On the left, there was a slender and graceful figure sitting with her very long legs crossed and something like a tail swaying under the chair.
In the center of the room was a charred corpse.
Long's voice came again: "Mr. Zuo is so young, but his telekinesis is so amazing. Looking at Lingxiao City, there are no more than five people with such qualifications within sixty years. I wonder who his master is?"
Li Weiyi had a plan for dealing with this. "When I was a kid, I practiced with an old man who sold paintings for two months, but since then, I can't find him anymore! Also, please don't call me sir anymore, just call me Zuo Ning. It really makes me feel uneasy."
Behind the curtain, the graceful figure with a tail let out a sweet laugh that was extremely pleasant to the ear.
A look of surprise flashed across Long's face. "There are countless masters in the world. It is normal for some of the most powerful ones to seclude themselves for decades at a time. Perhaps that strange man is such a person. Zuo Ning, you boarded the ship in Jin County, right? Why are the people from the cult chasing you?"
"Mother, shouldn't we express our gratitude?"
Tai Shi Bai noticed something was wrong and gave a reminder.
He knew that his mother had an extremely strong personality, and if he continued asking like this, he would probably offend her.
Long smiled and said, "Don't blame me, Zuo Ning. I'm just curious and have no intention of exploring your secrets. At home, I've always been the one in charge of the house. I'm used to controlling the details of all the people. I have to make sure they know everything clearly, so that there won't be spies mixed in and ask too many questions without realizing it!"
Li Weiyi still didn't understand the purpose of the summons by Madam Taishi, but if he didn't answer clearly at this moment, there might be trouble, so he smiled bitterly: "Madam is really amazing, your vision and wisdom make Zuo Ning admire you. I thought that no one noticed that the three of us boarded the ship from Jin County. What's more amazing is that Madam can even analyze in an instant that the cult is chasing us three."
The figure with the tail said in a delicate voice, "You three were the most anxious to get on board, and there were two pure immortal bodies who wrapped themselves tightly, and you can tell their origins at a glance. Not long after you got on board, the evil cult monsters caught up with you. Who else could they be looking for if not you?"
"Also, if everyone hadn't been bewitched by evil and killed each other, you would have probably stayed in hiding, right? So, if you want to blame someone, blame yourself for being too soft-hearted and kind."
Taishi Bai asked with a cheerful smile: "Cousin, is being kind wrong?"
"Kindness is a life-saving medicine for everyone. But for him, it is a deadly poison that kills instantly," she said.
Li Weiyi said, "Miss, what you said is very good! But you have to take this poison no matter how reluctant you are. Who told you that they were injured and died because of me?"
Taishi Bai was moved.
Li Weiyi sighed, "To be honest, the three of us in Fuzhou had a deep hatred with the evil cult and killed many of their followers. Now we are forced into a desperate situation and are preparing to flee to Lingxiao City. Only there, the evil cult dare not act recklessly."
"Well done! Fuzhou has indeed been in turmoil in the past two years. It is said that the cult's lair is there. The court will wipe it out sooner or later." Taishi Bai said with great pride.
Long's voice sounded, always calm and quiet: "Since you are going to Lingxiao City, come with us, and we can take care of each other."
Li Weiyi clearly felt that at this moment, Long's eyes were fixed on him seriously for the first time.
Although his eyes were calm, Li Weiyi felt as if he was exposed to the scorching sun, and any slight detail would be seen through by the other party.
Li Weiyi showed a surprised expression without any hesitation: "If I go with Brother Bai and Madam, even if the evil cult has ten courage, they will not dare to come again."
After He'er saw Li Weiyi off.
Taishi Bai stepped into the hall and came behind the curtain: "Mother, are you trying to recruit him? Have you figured out his background?"
Long looked to be less than 30 years old, with beautiful eyebrows slanting into her temples, and pupils as deep as a deep pool. She was dignified, yet had a graceful and charming demeanor.
Her eyes were sharp. "Avoiding the important and focusing on the trivial, hiding something. But in troubled times, when hiring people, ability comes first, and everything else comes second."
Taishi Bai pondered for a moment, then asked, "Mother, what do you mean by avoiding the important and focusing on the trivial, hiding something?"
Long glanced at him lightly and said, "Did he tell me the identities of his two pure immortal companions? Did he tell me why he killed so many followers of the evil cult? Go back to Nanyan Pass and investigate slowly. This person's mind-expelling technique of breaking evil and purifying the mind is something I have never heard of before. It is very mysterious and may be of great use. Try to ask him more in the next few days."
Tai Shibai finally understood Long's intention and was shocked: "Mother, are you referring to the Taichang Temple or the Lingxiao Palace?"
…
After returning to the cabin, Qi Xiao immediately closed the door and said in a voice transmission: "Do you know that Taishi Bai's mother was the inheritor of Longmen in the last sixty years? She was also very popular for a while, and later married the great immortal Taishi Qingcang. And Taishi Qingcang has a great relationship with the destination of our trip."
"Nanyan Pass?" Li Weiyi asked.
Qi Xiao said: "The general of Nanyan Pass is him!"
Li Weiyi suddenly realized that the other party was such a powerful person, and his own cultivation must be terrifying. No wonder, he was invited to express his gratitude, but in fact he could not even drink a cup of tea, and was interrogated for a while outside.
It seems that even if he had not taken action before, Mrs. Long could have easily solved all the troubles.
In such a critical situation, she did not kill the Dao Sect Spiritual Master immediately, and let the evil magic continue. Was she cold-hearted? Or was there something else that made her afraid to take action easily? After all, people of noble status like Long and Taishi Bai should not appear on a commercial post ship.
