Swish! The Lord of Wanjian City smiled brightly, and took the opportunity to grab Ye Danqing's hand, who subconsciously loosened his grip. He turned over and pressed the head of the Xuanyin family under him. "You!" Ye Danqing widened his eyes, having not anticipated the sudden change in the situation. "Master Ye, you've already eaten it, is there anything else you can change?" Duan Lanruo said leisurely, "There is a hundred benefits and no harm, but you insist on being so arrogant - if you don't tell your clansmen, who will know what it is? Like I said, this is the best way. Do you really want to let my clansmen and my little Junxuan practice dual cultivation one by one? Even if you agree, I won't allow it." Ye Danqing had to admit that the City Lord of Wanjian was truly an expert at speaking. She was actually moved for a moment. But it was only a moment of hesitation. How could the thousand-year-old dignity of the Xuanyin family be humiliated to save their lives? There must be other ways to think of... The head of the Xuanyin family has already backed off in his heart. At worst, since Ci Ke really likes that guy, let them be together. When they have a child, maybe the child's bloodline will change. If the Xuanyin bloodline can be changed because of this, why would the predecessors... But before Ye Danqing could sort out his thoughts, Duan Lanruo suddenly showed a kind expression and said, "Ci Ke, it seems that your mother doesn't have much practical understanding of the benefits of this." Ye Danqing was stunned, then his face turned red and he started to struggle: "What do you want to do?" Duan Lanruo turned to Ye Ci Ke and said with a smile: "Give your mother all the good stuff that we collected with great difficulty in that bottle."
Ye Danqing was pinned down by the Lord of Wanjian City, her long black hair spread out on the mat, and she stammered, "You, you don't want to...Ci Ke, how could you do this to your mother?" She looked a little flustered. Ye Ci Ke picked up the porcelain bottle and walked to Ye Danqing. His face was filled with shame and embarrassment, but he still bit his lip and said, "Mom, I have no choice... I really like him so much. If not for this, you and the elders in the family would separate him and me. I, I can't stand it." Ye Danqing said: "Ye Ci Ke! You, you are unfilial!" Duan Lanruo reached out and stroked the fair and beautiful cheek of the head of the Xuanyin family. She smiled like a fox, but her eyes were as deep as ink, and it was unclear what she was thinking. "Ahem..." The head of the Xuanyin family was filled with shame and indignation. She tried to force out the Yang energy that had merged into her body, but was helpless. She suddenly discovered that her cultivation level of the ninth level of the fusion period had reached the peak silently. Half a step to transcend tribulation! Ye Danqing's dejected and dazed expression suddenly paused, and then he subconsciously licked the little bit of ointment left at the corner of his mouth into his mouth. The pure yang energy and his own yin energy blended perfectly, flowing into his dantian and transforming into spiritual power without any hindrance. This…… The expression of the head of the Xuanyin family suddenly became very interesting. She had expected that the Yang energy would improve her own cultivation, but she had never imagined it would be so terrifying. Just a little bit of it could have such an effect. At the Fusion Stage, even elixirs are not very effective. Most cultivators would spend hundreds of years in seclusion without making any progress... But now, if I have another bottle, won't I be able to pass the tribulation directly? ! Ye Danqing's gaze involuntarily fell on the empty bottle. The Xuanyang Pearl was originally passed down from generation to generation in their Xuanyin family. In fact, in fact, it was just returned to its original owner... Chapter 185: My Concubine He Qingmeng In the secret island of Emperor Wu’s Cave.
Liu Yuan still doesn’t know about the strange things happening in Wanjian City. Although he did suspect that Duan Lanruo had other purposes in assigning secret guards, he at most thought that she intended to use material desires to train her character and concentration, but he never expected that something like this would happen. And there is even a slight possibility (Fingertip Universe) that the Xuanyin Family will be harmed as well. At that time, there was still about half a month before Ye Danqing arrived in Wanjian City, but Duan Lanruo had already made such sufficient preparations, taking precautions, and seemed to be planning to wipe out the entire Xuanyin family in one fell swoop. Although her purpose is still unclear at the moment, this woman who has been in charge of Wanjian City for hundreds of years has a deep mind that cannot be guessed by common sense. It should be noted that if Liu Yuan's network of relationships is taken as the center, plus the Xuanyin family as the foundation, it is enough to create an unprecedented huge force in Zhongzhou. But at the moment, Liu Yuan does not have such ambitions. He is only thinking about how to tidy up his backyard to avoid fire. Of course, for Liu Yuan, these are already “small goals”. At the moment, he was still thinking about how to get the real Martial Emperor's inheritance from the Martial Emperor Cave and then get out smoothly and safely. Liu Yuan narrowed his eyes, slowed down his pace, and looked at the collapsed building made of white jade in the distance. It was shaped like a palace, but seemed to have been abandoned for many years. The white building was covered with dark green vines and moss, and most of the base was buried in thick soil and fallen leaves. But just from this pile of ruins, and the tendency of it to extend along the mountain behind, one can tell how magnificent and beautiful the palace once was. It seems that someone once lived here. Judging from the dilapidated state of the building, it might be the former residence of Emperor Wu and his wife. It’s a pity that both of them died shortly after Hong Fu was created, otherwise we could learn a lot from Hong Fu... Speaking of which, the reason for the death of these two people is still a mystery. I wonder if there will be a chance to solve it here. "But... now is not the time to think about these things, let's do the things at hand first." Liu Yuan shifted his gaze from the buildings to the woman sitting on the ground. She should be the source of the cry for help just now. His judgment that the other person was a beauty was not groundless. The possibility of a killer from behind does not exist in his eyes now. The sharp senses of a cultivator allow him to make a comprehensive judgment on a person's situation based on his body shape and bone condition. In modern times, he can serve as a human Photoshop detection machine and help the vast number of male compatriots who are troubled by the Mirage Tank. Liu Yuan has come into contact with at least thirty beauties above his level, and he has basically observed them in depth. He even spent day and night with many of them, and he knows their physical conditions very well. Using this as a template for comparison and judgment, even without releasing spiritual awareness, you can basically outline the other person's appearance in your mind. "boom!" Suddenly there was a loud noise, and a figure in white fell from mid-air like a graceful white crane. The girl's slender figure was sharp and elegant, and she put away the sword in her hand. There was a flash of surprise in Liu Yuan's eyes, and he remembered the first time he saw Zhiying. The slender silhouette of the girl, her white dress fluttering in the flaming wind, was always imprinted in his mind and never faded. Behind her, the huge spider-like mechanical puppet collapsed with a loud bang, and its slender, glowing black limbs broke into pieces, with the cross-sections being extremely smooth. Dust and fallen leaves flew everywhere, and the huge mechanical spider fell to the ground and became a pile of waste. Seeing the signs of a new collapse in the deserted corner of the white jade palace, it is estimated that the puppet was initially untriggered and hidden in the corner of the palace. It was startled by the woman's intrusion and reopened, revealing its true face. It seems that there may be other mechanical dolls hidden on this island. They didn't know whether it was because they had been in the room for too short a time or because they were just lucky that they didn't meet him.
When Liu Yuan saw that the dismembered spider's limbs were actually leaking a yellow liquid that looked like blood, he knew that this spider was also the work of Yanshi. Most of the dolls in the tombs have heart or blood-like structures, which seem to represent the process of Yanshi in making a real human-like doll. There is a slope in front, and it seems that the palace encountered a landslide and fell into this basin. "Are you okay?" Liu Yuan jumped down from the broken part, walked to the woman, squatted down and stretched out his hand to ask. The woman in the light blue dress was startled, and turned around, revealing a face as elegant and beautiful as a white pond, with slightly raised eyebrows, a pair of bright eyes, tears in the corners of her eyes, and a panic-stricken look on her face as she bit her tender red lips with her pearly teeth. Her naturally gentle temperament was filled with weakness. She looked to be around twenty years old, with a beautiful face and a graceful figure. Even if she was frightened, she would just cover her mouth with her fair and tender hands and let out a low cry of surprise. Liu Yuan felt that she was probably a typical ancient lady, who strictly abided by the rules, had a good upbringing, and was delicate and gentle... ahem. Liu Yuan pulled his thoughts back and saw that the woman's clothes were covered in dust and torn in many places. Her forehead seemed to be bruised and swollen, with a trickle of blood flowing down her fair cheek. Her tearful eyes made her look extremely sad. The woman hesitated for a moment, and then saw the girl who saved her in the distance coming over and standing behind Liu Yuan. She confirmed that the young man in front of her was not a bad person, but still hesitated and said: "Thank you, thank you, I can do it myself..." Her voice was as gentle as her appearance, with a soft accent, just like the water village girl in Liu Yuan's impression. He felt for no reason that the woman in front of him was suitable to wear a cheongsam, hold an oil-paper umbrella, or a hollow golden nan fan. Liu Yuan said: "Did you sprain your ankle? Or I..." At this moment, a slender white hand reached out, and the girl's faint voice came: "I'll help you." "..." Liu Yuan's expression froze, and he forgot that the child next to him was inexplicably jealous recently. Now, even if he makes the slightest move towards other women, he has to be stopped... The woman blinked and looked at her palms on both sides in confusion. Liu Yuan withdrew his hand angrily: "She's here to help you. By the way, what's your name?" The girl was helped up by the shadow. She came to her senses and seemed to find the situation somewhat amusing. She relaxed a lot and smiled softly, saying gratefully, "Thank you for your help. My name is He Qingmeng." Last name: What? Could she be the descendant of Emperor Wu He Junhao? Chapter 186 Descendants of Emperor Wu "He Qingmeng, Qingyan Mengba, has some fairy spirit, what a good name." Liu Yuan habitually praised him first, then said with a smile: "I am more vulgar, Liu Yuan, with the courtesy name Junxuan." His real name was indeed very common. After all, his family was not a scholarly family, so they couldn't come up with any elegant names. They just simply hoped for a bright future. ...Now it is probably considered quite ambitious indeed. He then introduced the little foxes and the shadow behind him one by one, and finally did not forget to give her a very solemn and serious identity as a demon dragon amid the protests of Hammer Hammer and Meow Meow Meow. Chui Chui cares very much about his dignity as a Red Cloud Flowing Scale Dragon. But introducing it like this in cat form...it really seems like a cute trick.
He Qingmeng looked at the chubby orange cat bossing Liu Yuan around in a haughty manner. Liu Yuan even described the cat as a ferocious monster with a serious look on his face. He seemed to be particularly doting on the cat until the cat showed a satisfied expression. She covered her mouth with her hands and curled her beautiful eyes, feeling that her savior was a lively and innocent person, and that the cat was also very smart. Thinking of his compliments, He Qingmeng's cheeks flushed slightly, and she said softly with a little shyness: "My father was a businessman. Later, he accidentally received guidance from a master, and he also studied some scriptures and books. He especially liked the way of cultivating immortals, so he gave me this name... He also randomly refined some pills at home, but most of them were useless. I didn't expect that this concubine would turn a disaster into a blessing and meet a real immortal." Her eyes would occasionally fall on the ears and tails of the Su sisters, but she probably regarded these two little foxes as Liu Yuan's pets, so she did not show the usual human fear of the monsters. Although the spiritual power of this group of people has been sealed at this moment, in the impression of mortals, probably only immortals can control the demons. What's more, Zhiying's extremely shocking fighting power is not something that ordinary people can possess. Liu Yuan asked for some more information and learned that she was born in a wealthy merchant family in Zhongzhou. Her family's business was among the best among mortals. They ran a joint organization called Pingshan Chamber of Commerce and often came into contact with lower-level cultivators. They would also hire them to escort some valuable goods. However, even if those connected cultivators were invited to serve as bodyguards for He Qingmeng, they would still have no power to resist the people from the Biluo Mansion, not to mention that there were no guards around her when the incident happened. She was kidnapped before they even met. I guess outside, He Qingmeng's father is still asking people to find his daughter. Maybe there will be a kind-hearted cultivator who will tell him not to waste his energy because that person is from the Biluo Palace. Or maybe he would just keep searching until he gave up. Mortals are so helpless in front of immortal cultivators. It was written in the letter Liu Yuan had received before that the people from Biluo Palace kidnapped the descendants of Emperor Wu, and then ran to the Emperor Wu Cave to look for Emperor Wu's inheritance. And since He Qingmeng was indeed abducted by people from Biluo Palace, it means that she should be the descendant of Emperor Wu. Although she herself didn't know what Emperor Wu was, she only knew about it after hearing about it from the people who kidnapped her. It is really sad to say that He Junhao, the great Martial Emperor who achieved sainthood in the flesh of a mortal a thousand years ago, is not only a mortal now, but his descendants have lost all traces of martial arts and have instead gone into business. Come to think of it, his inheritance was placed in his own tomb, and it was extremely difficult to find a suitable successor to his martial arts. Apart from the poster girl, even Liu Yuan couldn't think of anyone else. "They said they want to use your blood to open the door to inheritance?" Liu Yuan was a little surprised by He Qingmeng's words, "It seems that they already know that the blood of the descendants of Emperor Wu is the key to opening the secret realm." However, even though they knew these clues, they underestimated the danger of the Wu Emperor Cave. As a result, most of the people were killed along the way, and inside the puppet formation, the casualties were even more severe. Only the two leaders and He Qingmeng found another exit and entered here. While in this secret island, the two men and He Qingmeng encountered an ambush by many puppets. However, the cultivation level of the two leaders was very high, so they were able to cope with it at the beginning. But the most terrifying thing was that they later encountered some monsters that were still alive with only skeletons and half of their bodies left. It was under the claws of these neither dead nor alive monsters that the two leaders were unable to resist. He Qingmeng took the opportunity to escape, but encountered the giant spider puppet in the palace area and was then rescued by Liu Yuan and others. "Zombies? Zombies? Resident Evil 8?" Liu Yuan made a few wild guesses in his mind, could this island be the Emperor Wu's secret human experiment base? ...In fact, there is a great possibility. Because if you think about it carefully, in this world where immortal cultivators are rampant, He Junhao, as the only mortal in history who has used his physical strength to the extreme, must also be seeking a breakthrough of his own. Or, to put it more grandly, he might want to seek a path to success for those mortals who have no talent for cultivation.
In Liu Yuan's opinion, since the mysterious magic of cultivating immortals doesn't work, there is only one way left, which is... scientific physical human body transformation! Add to that one who is proficient in puppet making and has a very good understanding of the human body, and the final work is Hong Fu, a Yanshi who is basically indistinguishable from a human being... If these two people are pursuing this kind of thing, then it really is not surprising at all. And maybe the cause of death of him and his Yanshi wife was because of this? "Ahem..." Liu Yuan coughed twice, collected his thoughts, and asked Hong Fu to treat He Qingmeng's injuries. Although there was no elixir for internal injuries, external injuries could still be effectively treated. He then asked, "Where did those people from Biluo Mansion encounter those monsters? Do you remember?" He guessed that if he and his group had not intervened, He Qingmeng would have died here and become the background board of this Wu Di Cave copy, so he did not appear in the subsequent plot.
