Chapter 588 Someone killed the three corpses.

Then he thought carefully, and a plan slowly emerged in his mind.

[It’s better to wait for news from Butler Fei first, then it won’t be too late to make a decision. ]

After returning to the inn, Murong Ji simply packed up his things and checked out of the room.

Secretly followed the Xiao family team and left Jubei City.

Not long after Murong Ji left with the Taoist League disciples, ten figures slowly appeared in the sky south of Jubei City.

As I got closer, I could see who was coming.

This group of people are all relatively young, dressed in gorgeous clothes, and have many magical weapons on them, most of which are auxiliary types.

One glance is enough to tell that these people are of extraordinary origin.

"Brother! Do you think Chen Mi, who is the same as us, will come to the North Border?" asked one of the younger girls.

"Will do."

"Aha! This time I want to fight him! Let him see how powerful we are! Beat him up and make him join us obediently!" The little girl raised her fist, with a look of pride and confidence on her face, and her bright big eyes blinked like twinkling stars.

Murong Ji looked up and saw an endless official road.

Going further north, that is the main battlefield between humans and demons. At this time, the Taoist soldiers and demon soldiers of the two countries are fighting fiercely, so it is normal to increase the troops.

Huang Shiren walked forward with his head down, not slowly, but he was hanging behind the Taoist alliance team, neither far nor close.

Murong Ji flipped his left hand, and a half-meter long tube appeared in his hand. He took off two transparent monocular lenses from both ends of the tube and put them in front of his eyes.

Then he slowly opened the long tube, and inside was densely packed with mosquitoes. As the long tube opened, the surrounding spiritual energy instantly surged and gathered into the long tube.

After a few breaths, a buzzing sound was heard.

The sound is not loud, but it is dense, and when the sounds are made together, it becomes quite loud.

Murong Ji shook the long tube lightly, and countless "mosquitoes" seemed to be disturbed, scattered, flew towards the sky, and disappeared in the air in an instant.

At the same time, the shadow of the Taoist alliance team led by the Xiao family appeared in front of Murong Ji.

As Mosquito followed, the high-level leaders of the Taoist Alliance also appeared. After the situation stabilized, even their voices could be heard.

[Ma Xianhong's ghost eyes are extremely useful. ]

Nowadays, refining equipment is as easy as drinking water and eating for Murong Ji. What is rare is the various wonderful ideas he has.

Human inspiration is limited, and Murong Ji cannot possibly spend all his energy on these things.

Riding on Huang Shiren's back, letting Huang Shiren walk forward leisurely. Murong Ji held a clipboard in his hand and marked the route that the Xiao family might take on the map.

With a frown on his face, he began to analyze the Xiao family's destination.

Comparing with the map of Beishan, Murong Ji suddenly discovered a problem. The direction these people were heading did not seem to be the main battlefield between the human and demon races.

Instead, they headed northeast to the deep mountains and old forests, where there was nothing to fight for except for some resources. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a dead jungle.

There are very few people or monsters active there, and most of them go there for the few cultivation resources in the mountains.

Murong Ji was slightly stunned, and for a moment he couldn't figure it out. [Could it be that the creature outside the circle is hiding in this mountain? ]

For a moment, Murong Ji was unable to determine what was going on.

No matter how much he thought about it, it was just a guess. He remembered that Jin Chenxi was in Beishan, but he was not sure whether there were other creatures outside the circle.

He tapped the lens with his finger, and the picture on the lens kept switching, finally switching to Xiao Wanqing.

The Taoist Alliance tent.

At this time, Xiao Wanqing was sitting in the big tent.

She looks a lot older now than she did ten years ago. Perhaps it's because of her cultivation that she gives off a mature charm.

A black and blue tight long skirt, which was designed for the convenience of women in combat and can be considered a kind of women's wartime attire.

Xiao Wanqing stood in front of a huge hand-drawn map with her arms folded, thinking carefully. From time to time, her brows furrowed, and sometimes relaxed.

This map is much more accurate than the map in Murong Ji's hand.

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps outside the big tent, coming from far away and getting closer. The steps were firm and steady, neither fast nor slow.

"Is mother in there?" The voice was a little cold, as if it was without a trace of emotion.

"Mr. Ning, the lady is inside. Please wait a moment. I will go and inform her." The maid guarding the door bowed. Xiao Wanqing came to her senses and said directly, "What do you want to inform? Just let him in."

"Yes, Mr. Ning, please come in."

Xiao Ning walked into the tent and glanced at the furnishings inside.

We have just arrived here a short time ago and many things are still messy and we haven't had time to clean them up.

However, there is no need to rush. They are only stationed here temporarily. In a few days they will have to move out and continue on their journey.

Seeing Xiao Wanqing standing in front of the map, Xiao Ning took a step forward, bowed slightly, and saluted, "Mother, you are looking for me."

Xiao Wanqing then turned around and looked at her son, who was now eighteen or nineteen years old.

Eleven years have passed. Before the great changes in the Chen family, he was still a naughty child. After that, he became silent and taciturn. Where is the lively and spiritual character before?
The past flashed through Xiao Wanqing's mind, and she felt a little bitter. Then, she sorted out her emotions and her tone softened. "What have you been doing recently?"

"Mom, I'm practicing swordplay." His voice was a little cold, just like his cold sword. However, the emotion in his words seemed to be unable to be suppressed.

Xiao Wanqing was not surprised, as if she was used to him, and nodded gently. In the past few years in the Xiao family, Xiao Ning had almost nothing to do except practicing sword and cultivation.

It’s not that the Xiao family’s children excluded him.

No matter what, Chen Quan was a son-in-law, which was witnessed by everyone in the Xiao family. No matter from which aspect, he was of the bloodline of the Xiao family.

After the big change, Chen Ning became Xiao Ning, and his personality became stubborn, no matter who came.

When asked to go out and play with him, he ignored me and focused on practicing sword skills.

But I want to find the end of some skill.

Xiao Wanqing sighed softly, feeling a little guilty, "Have you seen anyone these days?"

"It's still the same few. Quite annoying."

Xiao Wanqing was stunned. She knew that Xiao Ning was talking about the younger generations of the Xiao family.

However, that was not what she wanted to ask. After thinking for a while, she asked directly, "Have you seen that demon Taoist?"

"Evil Taoist?" Xiao Ning was stunned, a little confused.

Xiao Wanqing walked out from behind the table and stood in front of Xiao Ning. She gently helped him straighten his clothes, her eyes full of tenderness, and her tone slowed down again.

"Mother is talking about your younger brother, Chen Mi."

Thousands of miles away, Murong Ji was stunned for a moment and cursed inwardly, what kind of evil Taoism? ! He was using authentic Taoist techniques! The true teachings of Quanzhen!
"Demon, why do we call him demon?" Xiao Ning asked with some confusion.

This was one of the few times I heard from my brother. I hadn't seen him for many years and didn't know how he was doing.

Xiao Wanqing was silent for a moment, then said, "According to the head of the family, your brother was rescued by the Tushan fox demon, so he must be involved with the Tushan fox demon. The head of the family has investigated several times, but there has been no news in the past few years."

"Five years ago, in a village a thousand miles outside of Tianxuan City, that evil Taoist used magic to kill many disciples of the Dao League. Many disciples of the Dao League's families and sects also died at his hands."

"Several families joined forces to capture him, but they never expected that the Wang Quan family and the Yang family would suddenly intervene and execute several family heads according to the Dao League rules. This matter ended here."

Speaking of this, Xiao Wanqing looked a little solemn.

"Later, the head of the family had people spread rumors in the city. One was to test whether the demon would enter Tianxuan City, and the other was to put pressure on the two families to make them restrain themselves."

After all, five years had passed, and she could not remember the specific circumstances at that time. After careful consideration, she continued, "After the head of the family learned the news, he began to secretly investigate his whereabouts. Who knew that his methods were so unpredictable."

"We were following him well and he hadn't noticed us. But the demon Taoist and his cow suddenly disappeared without a trace. When he reappeared, he was already thousands of miles away."

Xiao Wanqing looked a little ugly. She had followed him personally for a while. If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would never have believed such a weird scene.

Can you believe that a living person is slowly vaporizing?
Among the known spells, only the Southern Kingdom Demon King Huan Du Qing Tian's All-Poison Body can do this. If that's the case, then that's fine.

Chen Mi, along with the cow, slowly disappeared in front of her eyes. When he reappeared, he was already a hundred miles outside the city. However, with his spatial ability, he could not detect even the slightest spatial fluctuation...

"According to the head of the family, this technique may have been obtained from the secret teachings of the Taoist Alliance. In thousands of years, this is the first time that someone has inherited such a strange technique from a secret teaching."

"Now that the geniuses of the Wang Quan family have grown up, the situation has become increasingly severe for our Xiao family. We are in urgent need of a young master who can withstand the pressure. Ning'er, now, do you know how important he is to our Xiao family?"

Xiao Ning subconsciously touched the sword in his hand. That move benefited him a lot.

"Five years ago, seven disciples of the Dao League who survived the demon suddenly developed a terrible disease. They kept producing disgusting sticky liquid from their bodies, which turned into various things to interfere with their practice. They said it was called the Three Corpses, right?"

"A few people were disturbed and couldn't accept the fact that they had become disabled, so they committed suicide. But..." Xiao Wanqing's eyes were a little solemn and suddenly became sharp.

“Not long ago, there was a female disciple who successfully killed the three corpses. In just a few months, her cultivation level broke through one after another, as if there was no bottleneck.”
