Chen Kuang stared at the woman in front of him who seemed a little surprised, and felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
He was absolutely certain that no cultivator should have this reaction when hearing the words "elixir of life"!
Li Hongling brought 50,000 Zhou troops here for this purpose, bringing a devastating disaster to the State of Liang, and the cultivator named Wei Su was indeed instigated by this.
The elixir of immortality may not be able to tempt this compassionate fairy who says, "If the world doesn't listen, I won't persuade it either."
But you should definitely not have no reaction, or even act as if you have never heard of this term.
When something is abnormal, there must be something wrong.
Chen Kuang immediately understood that someone must have done something wrong!
Perhaps he didn't want the nominally neutral Xuanshen Dao Sect to know, or perhaps he didn't want anyone to know.
In short, the issue of "elixir of life" may have become a sensitive word.
If you say it out loud and let others hear it, it will become something meaningless like ***.
But in the ears of those who know the truth, it will automatically turn into the original words.
It is difficult to speak out if you turn a deaf ear.
It's like using a calligraphy knife to dig three inches into the wood to carve out the ink on the bamboo slips, leaving no space left.
This will make the woman opposite seem as if she has never heard of such a thing as the elixir of life.
In this world of advanced martial arts, it seems that this method is not difficult to achieve...
However, the communication was distorted, which meant that it became impossible for Chen Kuang to introduce external forces.
Including the female immortal master of Xuanshen Taoism in front of him.
And now his intention to provoke has been discovered, the only fulcrum has been broken, and the outsider who has inserted himself in cannot use the elixir of immortality as bait, but instead becomes an insurmountable obstacle in front of him.
This deadlock seems to have gone back to the starting point and can only be broken by the power within the situation.
if……
If Chen Kuang really only knew the whereabouts of the elixir of life.
Seeing that Chen Kuang was silent for a long time and seemed not to be planning to speak, Shen Xingzhu said:
"You are not blind, and you intend to stir up trouble. I will inform Li Hongling about this."
Chen Kuang's heart tightened.
Shen Xingzhu seemed to have mistaken him for a cultivator disguised as a musician, so he did not suspect why he regained his sight.
But he was captured in Jinghe Hall, and his identity was confirmed. Li Hongling only needed to interrogate another musician and she would quickly come to the conclusion that he might have swallowed the elixir of immortality, which caused this strange phenomenon.
Chen Kuang took a deep breath and said:
"Why? Since the Immortal Master neither kills nor saves, shouldn't he just turn a blind eye to everything?"
Shen Xingzhu raised his eyes and said calmly:
"I heard from Wei Su two days ago that he wanted to lure Li Hongling to the battlefield and find a way to get her to this prison."
"I originally thought that since I was just a mortal, Li Hongling wouldn't take me seriously, and it should be very easy, but until now, I'm still standing here."
In other words, it took her two days to get Li Hongling to temporarily leave the East Corner Tower.
Shen Xingzhu said, "You know, the cultivators from Lingtai Mountain in Liang State are attacking the city. The two sides are fighting, affecting tens of thousands of mortals."
"Lingtai Mountain is quite powerful, but if Li Hongling were to take the field, they would definitely not be a match for them. Why is the battle so intense?"
"But Li Hongling is still reluctant to move."
The woman looked at Chen Kuang with some surprise.
"She has to wait another seven days because of you."
"I'm letting her leave temporarily to deal with the uncle from Lingtai. It's just a temporary solution. She'll be back soon and continue waiting."
"For these seven days, I don't know how many more people will die. This is unethical, and I cannot bear it."
"But in the chaos of battle, I am powerless and cannot fully distinguish right from wrong, and I am afraid of killing someone by mistake."
Those extremely beautiful eyes are like nectar, spreading compassion to the world.
"After much thought, the only foolproof solution is to quickly resolve the grudge between you two to prevent the suffering of countless people."
Shen Xingzhu
"..." Chen Kuang: "Master, what you mean is, me."
He pointed at himself, expressionless:
"In your opinion, I am the culprit responsible for the suffering of all those outside the city right now?"
Shen Xingzhu nodded slightly: "Indeed."
What a ridiculous bullshit theory!
Don't you consider that he is still a prisoner? Shouldn't he be the victim?
Resolve the grudge between them?
The fundamental purpose is to deal with Chen Kuang!
Chen Kuang took a deep breath, his eyes looking at someone with a mental problem:
"If Li Hongling hadn't led the army to destroy Liang, how could this battle have happened? Putting aside the previous causes, if only Li Hongling had stopped and withdrawn her troops, releasing all the prisoners, everything would have been easily resolved!"
Shen Xingzhu's eyes were calm: "I have advised you in this way."
"Then what?"
"She won't listen."
If the world doesn't listen, she won't persuade them!
Chen Kuang felt angry at first, then absurd. The more he thought about it, the more absurd it seemed, and he even laughed out of anger.
He laughed quietly at first, then found it funnier and laughed even louder while slapping his knees.
Seeing that he was like a madman, Shen Xingzhu paused and added:
"Although Li Hongling is unlikely to withdraw her troops and release the prisoners, she has promised me that she will never attack ordinary people."
"The palace maids in this imperial city shall not be subjected to severe punishments or indiscriminate killings. They must be found guilty and have solid evidence before they can be brought to the hands of the Secret Punishment Department."
"The rest of the unrelated people will be incorporated into the army and used as military slaves."
"I've been monitoring the Secret Criminal Division these past few days, and Li Hongling has indeed done nothing out of line."
"Originally there was another you..."
A hint of disappointment seemed to flash across Shen Xingzhu's eyes again: "You are not now either."
oh……
It turned out that the news he had heard from the jailer before was not false.
But it was Shen Xingzhu's credit.
