Chapter 316 News about Ye Lingxiao
On this day, Zhang Qian was using the magical power of the Qiankun Ding to refine mirage masks. Ever since he handed over more than a hundred mirage masks to Meng Youxian through the Void Compass a few days ago, Zhang Qian continued to refine them. He discovered that if he wanted to improve his Qiankun Ding magical power to the level of the Heavenly Demon Pagoda, he had to use the Qiankun Ding magical power madly to refine pills and weapons, otherwise the power of this magical power would not increase at all.
Seeing that the new mirage mask was about to be refined, Zhang Qian's concentrated eyes suddenly moved, and he quickly injected thirty-six ancient Taoist characters into the mask. After the mask was completely formed, Zhang Qian put the mask away and took out a jade slip for transmitting a message.
This is a jade slip of message belonging to Meng Lingsu. Under normal circumstances, Meng Lingsu would never contact Zhang Qian.
"What's going on? Is there any change in Jianhu Palace?"
After saying something to the jade slip, Meng Lingsu's voice was heard from the slip: "Master, Ye Lingxiao is back!"
"Ye Lingxiao! When did he come back?"
Hearing the news about Ye Lingxiao, Zhang Qian was shocked. Ye Lingxiao was the key figure in Li Qingcheng's shocking plan. After he disappeared under Meng Lingsu's curse some time ago, there has been no news about him. But now he has returned to Jianhu Palace openly.
"Did he come to see you?"
"He came to me and said something very unpleasant, saying that I was ungrateful and cursed him. I had an argument with him and we had a falling out."
"Ungrateful? Interesting. That's fine. You've torn your face off with him now. The entire Jianhu Palace should know about it. You don't have to be so cautious in the future. Since he dared to come back, he must have found something new to rely on, right?"
"I don't know about that, but his cultivation has broken through and he is now at the Golden Core stage. Moreover, the head of Mangcang Mountain, Xu Jingyang, got the news of his return from somewhere and came directly to my house. I heard that he wanted Ye Lingxiao to return 20% of Mangcang Mountain's luck power. The last time I cursed him and didn't kill him, it should be Mangcang Mountain that was helping him. 20% of the luck power is enough to offset my curse."
"I see!"
Zhang Qian then understood that the reason why Ye Lingxiao escaped from Meng Lingsu's curse last time was because Mangcang Mountain gave Ye Lingxiao 20% of luck. Mangcang Mountain is a large sect, and 20% of luck is not a small number, which is more than enough to offset Meng Lingsu's curse.
"Mang Cangshan is really willing to give up. Now the entire Ye family has died, with only Ye Lingxiao left. Xu Jingyang is so generous that he gave Ye Lingxiao 20% of his luck to save his life. There must be something fishy going on. How is the situation on your side now?"
Meng Lingsu said anxiously: "At this moment, everyone in Mangcang Mountain has already confronted Ye Lingxiao in the sect's main hall. The sect leader called me to question him, and I don't know what to do. After all, the sect leader is a powerful soul. What if he finds out..."
Zhang Qian's heart sank. He didn't expect Xu Jingyang and others to be so bold that they dared to confront him in Jianhu Palace. However, for the sake of 20% of the power of luck, Xu Jingyang could really do it. 20% of the luck of Mangcang Mountain is not a small number. This is the foundation of Mangcang Mountain.
“Don’t worry. When you get to the sect’s main hall, if the sect leader asks you about it, just say that you just had a breakthrough and hadn’t yet gained control of your cultivation, so you accidentally cursed Ye Lingxiao. As for whether the sect leader believes you or not, you don’t have to worry. Don’t worry, he won’t ask any questions.”
Zhang Qian was not too worried. As long as Ye Lingxiao was not dead, it was enough for Li Qingcheng. Now Ye Lingxiao had actually broken through the Jindan realm. Li Qingcheng might be too happy to wait. The faster Ye Lingxiao broke through, the closer Li Qingcheng would be to her plan.
After thinking about it, Zhang Qian suddenly summoned out the Heavenly Demon Pagoda. The pagoda turned, and Zhang Qian's figure disappeared. When he reappeared, he was already on the Tianzhu Mountain of the Demon Refining Island.
The second demon, who had transformed into Zhang Qian, appeared in the Mirage Dragon Lake. The two of them directly changed their positions through the shape-shifting technique of the Heavenly Demon Pagoda, and everything was done in an instant.
When he looked up, Zhang Qian saw Li Qingque sitting opposite him.
"Senior sister, long time no see!"
Seeing the smile on Zhang Qian's lips, Li Qingque was furious.
"You still remembered to come back. I thought you were dead outside!"
Seeing Li Qingque rolling his eyes, Zhang Qian's heart was moved. He stood up and hugged Li Qingque, but Li Qingque pushed him away.
"Stop touching me and go find your Xuan'er." "Hehe, Senior Sister, I've been missing you so much these days."
"Bah, who asked you to think about it."
Looking at Li Qingque's thin lips, Zhang Qian was about to take action, but Li Qingque said, "No, I have to go to the sect's main hall. People from Mangcang Mountain are here, and I don't know what happened."
Zhang Qian's heart moved, and after a persistent kiss, he said, "It's Ye Lingxiao. This time there will be something exciting to watch. I'll go with you."
After saying this, Zhang Qian directly released his secret method to conceal his own cultivation level, and showed his cultivation level as that of the middle stage of Zhen Yuan. However, he still hid something. It was really because Zhang Qian's breakthrough speed was too fast after joining Jian Hulu Palace. Now, after a while, he felt that he could reveal it a little.
"You...you're not afraid of being exposed now?"
Sensing Da Zhang Qian's aura, Li Qingque was a little puzzled.
"Don't worry now. Did you know that Ye Lingxiao has now achieved the Golden Core Realm?"
"Yes, after he came back a few days ago, the news spread. It is said that he got an opportunity in the boundless wilderness and broke through directly. It was also good luck."
"What good luck? Things shouldn't be that simple."
The two of them went out together. Zhang Qian took a quick look and found that the Demon Refining Island had changed a lot. There were many more buildings on Tianzhu Mountain. The area around Tianzhu Mountain was well managed by 100,000 disciples of Demon Refining Island. The Demon Refining Island had regained its prosperity. Zhang Qian also saw several prosperous towns on the Demon Refining Island. These towns already had the rudiments of a market town.
"Meet the island owner! Meet the deputy island owner!"
"The island master is fine! The deputy island master is fine!"
……
After descending Tianzhu Mountain, they met many disciples from the Demon Refining Island along the way. These disciples were extremely polite and saluted respectfully. Many of them kept their eyes on Zhang Qian.
Although Zhang Qian made Mo Er transform into his appearance and appear on the Demon Refining Island, Mo Er was still a celestial demon after all, and his actions were different from those of humans. No matter how smart the celestial demon was, it was impossible for him to imitate Zhang Qian's every move exactly. This was impossible.
In the minds of the disciples of the Demon Refining Island, their deputy island master is extremely mysterious, but very generous. Whenever they meet him on the island, he often bestows them with all kinds of extremely delicious spiritual fruits.
According to rumors from the disciples who have eaten them, the taste of those spiritual fruits is simply beyond human taste. Eating one will make people feel ecstatic and leave them with an endless aftertaste.
It is a pity that those spiritual fruits are just delicious but have no effect on improving one's cultivation, which makes the disciples of Demon Refining Island very regretful.
How could these disciples know that those extremely delicious spiritual fruits were all illusions of the devil? With the cultivation and knowledge of these disciples on the island, how could they possibly see through the illusions of the devil?
Relying on these spiritual fruits, Zhang Qian easily won the hearts of these disciples. Zhang Qian himself seemed extremely mysterious, and he often gave them benefits, so how could these disciples not be convinced?
When Zhang Qian and Li Qingque flew into the sky on the auspicious cloud, Li Qingque glared at Zhang Qian and said, "If you use those magical fruits transformed from the demonic illusions to deceive the disciples on the island again, I will never forgive you!"
Zhang Qian laughed: "Sister, what are you worried about? Although those spiritual fruits are all illusions of the devil, their taste is incomparable and they are harmless. I will eat some when I have nothing to do. Although I know they are fake, the taste is not fake."
