"I almost thought you couldn't get out."

At this time, the surrounding imperial guards also nodded. If Xu Qiuzhe was here, it would be a disaster for Daqian.

"Let's go." Xu Qiu said, adding, "It's no use there anymore."

"No use?" An Lan was confused, and then recalled what he had just asked the swordsman, "Didn't a monster run out of there?"

"That is a ghost doll, a kind of magic weapon. Now the underground palace formation has failed, and there is nothing worth remembering."

"Ghost puppet...formation..."

After listening to this, An Lan felt like his head was about to explode. It was all so profound and unfathomable.

Especially Xu Qiu's vague explanation, which required her to guess on her own.

This is very brain-burning.

However, at this time, Xu Qiu was also lost in thought.

[The First Empress of Daqian must have entered the underground palace by mistake, and happened to encounter a loose formation, saw ancient characters, and a few wisps of spiritual energy leaked out, which is why she accidentally created the Heavenly Mirror]

[Of course, it is also possible that they met someone from the Goddess Cult. If the formation was set up by the Goddess Cult, then if the formation is loose, they will come to repair it. It just so happens that they ran into the empress, which makes sense. This is the problem of the first empress of Daqian’s enlightenment.]

[But there are still too few clues now]

[There is only that ghost doll... However, it belongs to the drunkard's stupid disciple. This guy may be somewhere in the world.]

Xu Qiu had a lot of thoughts.

He planned to look for his disciple's whereabouts. If he could meet him by chance, he could return to the world of immortal cultivation and seek revenge after his cultivation level recovered.

However, An Lan listened to Xu Qiu's inner thoughts.

Remain silent.

Xu Qiu became increasingly mysterious to her.

At the same time, she realized that Xu Qiu was planning to leave Daqian?

However, An Lan didn't know how to ask, after all, these were just his inner thoughts.

Xu Qiu was riding on a warhorse. Seeing An Lan's silence, he said, "Don't worry. All the people in Jianghu have been killed by the ghost puppet. The ghost puppet is heading north, so you don't have to worry for the time being."

At this point, he paused, "But the only thing you have to worry about now is the strength of the army."

"Why?" An Lan stared at Xu Qiu, "Are you afraid of the North Yue Kingdom and the Witch Clan?"

The surrounding royal guards also stuck their heads out.

He leaned over curiously.

Xu Qiu said slowly, "Wu Clan lost its deputy sect leader and a group of disciples in Qingluan Valley, and now lost its chief elder in Daqian Capital. This is not a big concern, but the royal family of Beiyue Kingdom should pay attention."

Hearing this, An Lan said confidently: "Without your participation, the North Vietnam Kingdom would not be able to achieve success."

However, Xu Qiu said: "In addition to being on guard against the North Yue Kingdom, you also have to be wary of the alienated monsters."

"The monster has mutated?" An Lan was confused.

The captain of the Royal Guards who was guarding them was equally confused.

Xu Qiu patiently explained, "The underground palace collapsed just now, releasing a large amount of spiritual energy. It won't be long before this world begins to be filled with spiritual energy."

"Young Elder, was it the light blue gas just now?" a captain of the Imperial Guards couldn't help but ask.

"Um."

"It's really strange. I feel less tired and more flexible."

The captain of the Royal Guards sighed.

The others nodded one after another; they also felt the change.

With every breath I take, I feel my body getting younger.

"This is spiritual energy." Xu Qiu said casually, but also added, "You feel your body is light and agile, but have you ever thought that the beast's body also becomes stronger."

"Beast?" A lieutenant laughed and said nonchalantly, "The strongest beast is no stronger than a tiger. How strong can it be?"

"Then we'll see."

Xu Qiu said it lightly and rode away without looking back.

An Lan felt that his words had a deeper meaning, but the captain of the Imperial Guards did not take it to heart.

…

Daqian capital.

Since all the martial artists disappeared from the city, the capital has returned to its former prosperity.

Everyone lived in peace again.

Many corrupt officials were investigated and punished, many shops were taken back by the royal family, the land was distributed to the imperial guards, and a large number of exorbitant taxes were abolished.

For a time, the capital was thriving, and political integrity spread to the surrounding prefectures and counties.

A large number of people sang praises to the new empress, and the prototype of the prosperous Daqian era gradually took shape.

However, five days later.

"Help!"

"Is this a beast? Or a monster?"

Several merchants coming to Beijing had their horse-drawn carriages carrying goods knocked over to the ground.

They climbed onto the carriage and looked nervously at the beasts under the carriage. They looked like wolves but not wolves, and like cats but not cats. Most importantly, they were very agile.

They bit off the packhorse's neck in one breath. Several guards stepped forward to drive them away, but they were more agile than ever.

The guards couldn't hold out for long.

“Ahhhh!!!”

“Save me!”

"This is a monster! The skin is too hard to break."

Several guards were bitten to death by them.

The merchants coming to Beijing could not help but tremble when they saw this scene.

Just when they thought they were about to become food for the beasts.

"Evil beast!" A dozen patrol soldiers of the Imperial Guard came running over, and the first one, a sergeant, shouted loudly.

Then they fought with the wild beasts. Finally, the few people took great pains to kill one of them, and the rest escaped.

at the same time.

Inside the imperial city.

There were a large number of memorials on An Lan's desk, all of which were about recent wild beast attacks in the capital.

Under normal circumstances, it is common for wild beasts to attack people, but it is not a big deal. As long as you take out a stick to drive them away, the wild beasts will usually leave tactfully.

But lately the beast seems to have grown more ferocious.

Not only was it useless to drive them away with sticks, but more than a dozen people were even killed by the beasts.

The most horrifying thing was that some wild beasts ripped open a person's stomach in front of everyone, and then ate slowly until the imperial guards came and killed the beasts, and the crisis ended.

People were in panic for a while.

"Someone come!"

An Lan yelled.

A guard came in, knelt on one knee and said, "Your Majesty, what do you want?"

"Show these memorials to Elder Xu."

An Lan placed the memorial in his hand in annoyance and waved for him to leave.

…

"Brother-in-law, there have been many cases of wild animals injuring people recently. Are you really going to do nothing about it?"

Qin Yumo sat down on the pavilion.

Watching Xu Qiu sitting cross-legged under an osmanthus tree, in a state of meditation.

Ever since he set up the incomplete version of the spirit gathering array, he has been meditating here without eating or drinking for three days.

Xu Qiu opened his eyes and slowly exhaled.

Looking at the bored Qin Yumo, sitting on the steps of the pavilion, with his white legs split and his delicate hands supporting his head.

The pink panties were faintly visible under the skirt, but the other person didn't know it.

"Your skirt is leaking."

Xu Qiu spoke slowly.

Qin Yumo blushed instantly, and immediately clamped her legs together, and her hands covered the hem of her skirt. She bit her lips and said coquettishly, "Don't look over here! You stinky brother-in-law~!"

Xu Qiu didn't listen to her, but stood up and stretched.

Then he answered her words just now, "When the spiritual energy awakens, such things will naturally happen. It's not surprising. If they can't even handle such a thing, it's better not to have Daqian."

Xu Qiu had no intention of being both a father and a mother to Daqian.

[It’s time to leave. The spiritual energy has revived. Staying here won’t bring any clues about my disciple.]

[Also, my thunder tribulation will probably come soon]

He estimated that he could build a foundation within half a year. Once he reached the foundation-building stage, he would encounter a small thunder tribulation. At this stage of foundation-building, he would no longer be a mortal, but the weakest immortal.

Becoming an immortal will lead to divine punishment.

Of course, he prefers to be called an immortal cultivator or a monk.

When Qin Yumo heard her brother-in-law's words, her originally shy expression froze.

No, brother-in-law, you are leaving after just a few days? (End of this chapter)
