Chapter 589: Old Customers of Tushan Tianxiang Pavilion
"A Dao League master checked and found that this female disciple has a solid foundation. In addition to combat experience and magic weapons, her qualifications in all aspects far exceed those of many elite disciples in the Dao League."
Xiao Wanqing paused again and frowned, as if she had thought of something. She turned to look at her son and saw that there was nothing wrong with his expression.
I felt relieved but also a little disappointed.
How many things did the Dao League inheritance in Murong Ji's hands inherit? No one can tell now, it seems that there is everything, and his methods are never the same!
[It would be great if it was my Ning Er who inherited the legacy.] After coming back to her senses, Xiao Wanqing continued, "I called you over here to ask if that demon Taoist came to see you? Or, have you had any contact with him?"
Xiao Ning was startled and fell silent for a moment. He lowered his head and thought for a long time before saying, "No, I have never met him. If I could meet him, I would have a lot to ask him."
"Mother, has he come to Beishan as well?"
Xiao Wanqing's pupils shrank slightly, and for a moment, she was not sure whether Xiao Ning was lying.
Then he nodded and said, "Not long ago, the head of the family sent a message that a secret agent of the family saw his cow in Beishan. I think he himself has also been to Beishan."
"If you meet him, you must tell mother. This concerns the foundation of our Xiao family. It even concerns our lives! In the current situation, if the Wang Quan family regains power, our Xiao family..."
"Besides, if he joins the Xiao family, it will be good for you and it won't be a bad thing for him. Ning'er, do you understand what mother means?"
"I see."
……
Murong Ji took off his ghost eyes and slowly exhaled.
"Demon? How can I be a demon? People's hearts are full of devils, and it is difficult to distinguish between good and evil. The spirits that have not become 'humans' are demons. Who is the demon between you and me?"
Murong Ji sneered, patted Huang Shiren on the back, and signaled him to leave quickly.
However, Murong Ji was a little surprised. Among the seven people who were released at the beginning, there was actually someone who turned into three corpses by himself? ! ! He began to be curious about the woman.
[I must meet him in person someday. ]
Three days later, the Taoist Alliance set out again.
This time, they went straight into the depths of the Chongxiao Mountains.
Chongxiao Mountain. When Murong Ji arrived here, he found that it was a barren mountain. It was very vast but also very barren.
For mortals, this is a treasure land, but for monks, it is a waste.
In such a large mountainous area, there is no sacred mountain that gathers spiritual energy.
Not to mention any spiritual material mineral veins.
Murong Ji and Huang Shiren followed the Taoist Alliance team into the mountains, still hanging in the distance.
When he was bored, Murong Ji flipped through the images sent back by mosquitoes and flies from various places.
They were a little surprised to see Xiao Tianhao. He was still following the little girl. The two of them, like them, quietly followed the Taoist alliance team.
Logically speaking, with Xiao Tianhao's status, he is qualified to bring someone into the team, so why be so sneaky?
Xiao Wanqing didn't care. Was it intentional or...
Soon.
The news from Butler Fei also came, and Murong Ji only then knew the identity of the woman.
The third girl of the Li family, Li Muchen.
Murong Ji carefully recalled Li Muchen's face, and compared it with the information he had observed in recent days. He couldn't help but sneer, "Mr. Fei, this third girl of the Li family... hehe."
"What's wrong? This girl is not a bad person. I watched her grow up." The voice of Butler Fei came from the ring.
"Confident, proud, intelligent, persistent, competitive and...vain. Really, in some ways, she is a bit like a person."
Murong Ji's voice sounded faintly, and Huang Shiren carried him step by step in the mountains.
Li Muchun, Li Muchen.
They are similar in name and personality. Murong Ji regained his concentration and thought: [This girl is not a quiet one.]
A person's aptitude is not the decisive factor. As long as one can practice, he can surpass others in his mindset. What a pity... Li Muchen can't feel at ease at all.
"The Li family is a good family. If that girl hasn't done anything bad, please don't make things difficult for her. I will ask the head of the Li family to take her back."
Butler Fei's voice rang out, bringing Murong Ji back from his distraction.
"Mr. Fei said so, how dare I not obey. My only target is the Xiao family, to see what they are going to do, I am not interested in anyone else. Besides, I am a good person, good people do good things, what are you worried about, Mr. Fei?"
Butler Fei: “…”
Then he sighed and said slowly: "My young master and young lady have also gone north with their regiment."
Murong Ji raised his eyebrows slightly and said jokingly: "Don't worry, Mr. Fei, I will definitely take good care of them."
"No, no, no, you misunderstood me. I wanted you to teach them a lesson and help them recognize their own abilities and position... If you can... defeat them."
Murong Ji was speechless for a moment, this was a common problem among geniuses, from self-confidence to arrogance, there was no way to control it.
Once people start to go crazy, there's no limit to what they can do.
At times like this, the only way to deal with this is to wake them up, otherwise something bad will definitely happen.
After the communication ends.
Murong Ji gently turned the ring, and the red light turned blue again, then slowly extinguished. Then he slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air. What was his purpose in coming to Beishan?
How did Chen Quan come back to life?
Secondly, see if you can get some creatures outside the circle to use for refining equipment.
The most fundamental function of magic weapons is to assist people in their cultivation. In Murong Ji's opinion, the entire Taoist Alliance has gone astray.
It is good to make good use of things, but isn’t this also a good practice?
Furthermore, what happened to Xiao Wancheng? Or, how did he become possessed?
When I thought of him, I couldn't help but think of what Chen Quan had said to him.
Originally, Xiao Wancheng was a good person. He was eager to help others, righteous, generous, talented, and ambitious. It was precisely because of this that Chen Quan decided to follow him.
It is said that all the Xiao family heads of all generations were like this. No matter what his true personality was, he had to act like this.
Over several generations, the Xiao family developed rapidly. In an era when the royal families were in decline, the Xiao family produced four generations of leaders.
It is also because of Xiao Wancheng's character that the Xiao family has developed to the point where they are able to undermine the royal power and maintain a simple life.
Is Xiao Wancheng's character genuine or fake? Chen Quan can tell the difference. Xiao Wanqing, who grew up with him, can tell the difference even better.
[All the changes were caused by Xiao Wancheng's trip to Beishan. What was the mission? Why did he need to go there in person?]
Come to think of it, there was something a little wrong with Xiao Wancheng's possessed state.
Compared with Daoxuan.
Daoxuan is possessed by the devil, with a cold and gloomy aura, paranoid and moody. He will kill anyone who helps him achieve his obsession and goals.
He would also kill those who were not conducive to his goal. Even some ferocious beasts with a little bit of rationality had very little humanity.
Xiao Wancheng's state is different from Daoxuan's.
Xiao Wancheng's goal was clear, and although he had a bad temper, he never killed innocent people. Of course, his Chen family was not innocent either.
Murong Ji let out a breath slowly and had some guesses in his mind. The news about Xiao Wanqing was probably from Xiao Wancheng.
The pressure on the Xiao family is growing heavier and heavier. Now, if the Xiao family does not make some preparations, they will really fall.
Because of what Xiao Wancheng did, the other families cannot tolerate him!
Chongxiao Mountain is indeed barren for cultivators.
Along the way, although the jungle was dense, it gave Murong Ji the feeling of a primeval forest.
However, no spiritual plants or spiritual objects were seen.
There are countless kinds of rare herbs, and many of them are old. Murong Ji never let go of any of them that he found.
As a result, the journey was delayed.
After figuring out the Xiao family's purpose this time, Murong Ji was no longer in a hurry.
Finding things is the Xiao family's business, and he can just pick up the bargains from behind.
Half a month passed, and the Xiao family really hadn't made any progress. Murong Ji monitored them in real time, and over time, he became a little bored.
He simply gave a lens to Huang Shiren and asked him to help supervise, while Murong Ji focused on collecting herbs and refining pills.
What God does not take, is to be blamed.
Murong Ji must thoroughly search the Chongxiao Mountain.
"Master, Master! Something's happening..." Huang Shiren suddenly ran over shouting, wanting to enter the cave. He just raised his foot and put it down again.
Murong Ji hated being disturbed when he was refining the elixir.
Huang Shiren stood obediently at the entrance of the cave, looking inside.
Not long after, Murong Ji walked out of the cave with a tired look on his face.
"Master, there's some movement from the Xiao family. Guess what? This battle between humans and demons is just a cover."
As he said that, he handed over the ghost eye.
After Murong Ji took it, the picture blurred for a moment, and then he saw Xiao Wanqing sitting at the head of the Taoist Alliance tent, and sitting on the left was Beishan Jiye.
Old acquaintance!
Murong Ji was not unfamiliar with him at all. When he was in Tushan, he worked very hard for Tushan.
"Madam Xiao, I wonder how your progress is going? His Majesty is getting a little impatient." Beishan Jiye's face was serious, and his voice was low and slow, as if he was born with a sense of oppression.
Beishan Jiye suddenly spoke in a serious tone, and Murong Ji was still a little uncomfortable with it.
In front of his subordinates, this old rooster is always very dignified, prestigious, serious and unsmiling. But in private, he plays more extravagantly than anyone else.
I'm an old customer of Tushan Tianxiang Pavilion... the kind that takes two extra hours to take a shower. Tushan makes a lot of money from everything.
"Uncle Ji, don't worry. We already have some clues and there will be results." Xiao Wanqing consoled calmly.
Beishan Jiye picked up the teacup and took a sip. He didn't say anything. After thinking for a while, he slowly said, "Back then, your majesty's battle lifted the demon-controlling talismans of all the demons."
