The Imperial Master was very serious. "Indeed, the last time he spoke to me, five out of ten of his sentences were about you, wanting to see how good you are."
That person is not someone to be trifled with, so there will probably be a big fight.
Gu Yunni pretended to be relaxed. She was also under a lot of pressure, but in order to appease Sheng Mingyu, she could only act relaxed.
What could she do? She didn't believe that even if she joined forces with the Imperial Master, she wouldn't be able to save anyone.
"Don't worry! I have to go back to Kyoto with you. How could I possibly leave my life here? And if he wants to kill me, he'll have to see if he has the ability to do so!"
The Imperial Master nodded. "That's right. I will be there to help you. Although we were friends before, he has done so many bad things. He should pay the price."
They spent a lot of time and finally reached the mountain, where they saw a cave heavily guarded by soldiers, with a few more men in black standing nearby.
Sheng Mingyu was sensitive to the smell of people, and as soon as he saw these people, he knew they were not simple.
Although he may not be able to defeat me, if he fights with all his strength, I will be defeated.
Sheng Mingyu seemed casual, but he and the national teacher surrounded Qin Yanchen in the middle.
"Are these your people? It seems you're not a simple person. Where did you get so many people from? I've needed your help before, so why didn't you tell me before?"
The person who can train such subordinates must be an extraordinary person.
Gu Yunni also had a doubtful look in her eyes, but Qin Yanchen was unwilling to answer.
"You don't care what my identity is. Besides, this is someone I borrowed from a friend, not someone I own. Let's go in and take a look. The master you mentioned is in the final stage of alchemy and won't show up easily. He probably doesn't know what's going on outside."
Why should he confess to these people? Besides, there was really no way to tell them. Even if he did, they wouldn't believe him.
Sheng Mingyu didn't think too much about it. Since he had come this far, he had no choice but to go in.
"Mo Qing, take the guards in first. Remember not to hurt anyone. He doesn't have many available people around him. They are basically little ghosts. Take the talisman that the Crown Princess prepared for you."
"good."
There is a time bomb inside that can explode at any time. I can't argue with Qin Yanchen anymore because he doesn't bring many people with him.
Gu Yunni and the Imperial Master were both smart people and did not ask any further questions.
Everyone has secrets, as long as they don't stab others in the back.
Qin Yanchen was reluctant to speak, and his temperament was completely different from when he was in Kyoto.
He gave a wink to the people around him, and several men in black ran in, leading the way to protect the people under Sheng Mingyu.
"I guess you'll be heading back to Kyoto once this is done. There's nothing wrong with having some people around. My guards are all very skilled in martial arts, comparable to your personal guard. Consider this my apology."
Qin Yanchen spoke awkwardly and looked at Gu Yunni.
Gu Yunni, however, looked disgusted. If you wanted to help, just say it directly. Why bother making up an excuse?
Sheng Mingyu was secretly jealous and stood between Gu Yunni and Qin Yanchen, not letting him get close.
"Thank you!"
The national teacher found it very interesting to watch the ups and downs between these three people. He really hoped that this series could continue.
It would be great if he didn't have to go back to Kyoto. The time he spent in Anyuan County was simply the most free time for him.
Gu Yunni and a few others followed at the end of the team and walked into the cave.
The guards had already surrounded the master of the mysterious arts, but he still sat in the middle without moving.
Countless ghost cries were heard nearby, but they were blocked outside by Gu Yunni's talisman and could not get close.
Gu Yunni was confused and poked the Imperial Master with her arm. "What...what is he doing? You are the most familiar with him. Can you explain what he did?"
Qin Yanchen also had a dazed look on his face. "Yes, I know he's very capable, but he can't be so indifferent to us. With so many people surrounding him, he didn't even move."
The Imperial Master looked around with a serious expression, "He has reached the final stage of alchemy and has stopped caring about anything else. It's not that he can't hear the outside world, but he believes he can succeed."
Sheng Mingyu glanced around and said in a cold tone, "Yes, there are so many corpses of civilians nearby. They must have just been killed and their hearts taken out. Judging from their clothes, they must be prisoners in prison."
Gu Yunni raised her eyebrows. "The elixir of immortality is a lie. Even if he tries his best, he won't succeed. It's better for him to face reality as soon as possible."
The Imperial Master had the same idea as Gu Yunni, but he sighed a little about the person in front of him.
Instead of using his skills in the right place, he chooses to use crooked means.
I don’t know where he got the method of refining the elixir of immortality, which turned him into this state?
Otherwise, he is still the same powerful master as before.
"He's caught in a demonic barrier. He's been working on this for so many years. If he doesn't succeed, how can he persist? Let him practice first, and we'll wait."
It has come to the final stage, he will not give up. He will not succeed anyway, and it is time for him to face reality.
Several people sat and waited for a long time. Just when Gu Yunni felt bored, the master in front of him finally opened his eyes.
He spat out a mouthful of blood, furious.
"Bah! What do you mean the elixir can't be made? I think you two are just jealous! I'm already halfway there, with only one step left! It's all your fault, little girl! You just said those words to deliberately provoke me, didn't you? If it weren't for you, I would have succeeded by now!"
He seemed to be sick. He would not let go of anyone he came into contact with and would directly blame all the mistakes on Gu Yunni.
He could indeed hear the sounds outside, and was clearly about to succeed, all because of what Gu Yunni said.
He had been thinking about the truth in Gu Yunni's words, which was why he became like this.
Seeing him like this, Gu Yunni suddenly became calm.
I have been so stupid all this time, wasting so much energy just to deal with a stubborn old man?
"If you don't have the ability, then you don't have the ability. Why are you blaming me for your mistakes? Do I have to be responsible for the bad things you did? Besides, it was impossible to succeed in the first place. I'm telling the truth."
The master of the mystical arts looked so crazy that the surrounding guards were frightened, fearing that he would suddenly launch an attack.
"It's clear that people in ancient times were able to achieve it. I'm so powerful now, why can't I succeed? Tell me why! Have you also heard of the method for refining the elixir of immortality? Otherwise, how could you be so familiar with it? Which step did I go wrong? It's clear that everyone has the right people!"
The master ran towards Gu Yunni like crazy and grabbed her shoulders tightly.
Gu Yunni's expression suddenly changed. How could a casual remark like that cause such a big trouble?
Sheng Mingyu reacted and kicked the master aside, his eyes looking murderous.
You really don't take him seriously!
“Let go!”
The master of Xuanshu gradually regained his composure and looked Sheng Mingyu up and down.
