Xu Qi 'an raised his head and took a sip of wine. He thought for a while and said,
After some thought, he said, "Duke Wei, I'll give you a report. After the Yuanjing Emperor's death, the Dragon Breath dissipated, and Daibun is in danger.
"The Witchcraft Cult, Buddhism, and the lineage from five hundred years ago are coveting the Dragon Breath. "After a month of traveling, I've collected three vital Dragon Breath and one fragmented Dragon Breath.
"The Supervisor said that we can ignore the fragmented Dragon Breath. As long as the nine vital Dragon Breath are gathered, the fragmented Dragon Breath will gather on their own.
"However, I reckon that it's not necessary to gather all nine Dragon Breath because it's too difficult. As long as one of the Dragon Breath is found by the enemy and brought back to the base, I won't be able to do anything about it.
"Therefore, I should try my best to gather Dragon Breath to stabilize Daibun, which is on the verge of collapse. For example, gathering more than half of the Dragon Breath would be enough. Or perhaps, the Supervisor has other plans. He's too unfathomable.
"If you were still alive, Duke Wei, I wouldn't have to be so vexed …"
Xu Qi'an drank another mouthful of wine and sighed softly.
"Your sacrifice didn't bring about any good changes to Daibun. Although the Supervisor and Zhao Shou said that you bought time for the Central Plains …
"Along the way, the weather has been cold and everything I've seen is unbearable. When the people prosper, the people suffer. When the people perish, the people suffer. They don't lie to me.
"I'll try to change the situation with my life and save Daibun from the brink of destruction. This is also related to my life. Once Daibun perishes, I, who possess half of the country's destiny, will also die for the country.
"Sometimes, I feel lost and don't know what path to take. It would be great if you were still alive.
"Ah, right. I've finally dual cultivated with the State Preceptor. She's already my Dao partner, but she probably can't wait to stab me to death. What a tigress …
"In the past, I was purely lusting after the Imperial Preceptor's body. She was simply too beautiful and mesmerizing. During this period of dual cultivation, I developed some different feelings for her. This was probably the legendary "first get on the train, then pay the ticket".
"The only thing that bothers me is that she's not very friendly to my other women … Unfortunately, I can't control her. When she calms down her Karmic Fire and transcends the tribulation, she'll become a first-grade earth deity.
"I feel desperate just thinking about it. Perhaps, Lin 'an and the others are even more desperate. Fine, it's my fault for being lecherous. Duke Wei, you are such a great lover, can you understand me?
"When I recover my cultivation and reach the peak of Level Three, I will be able to dual cultivate with Mu Nanzi. With my outstanding charm, she will definitely not reject me, but I don't want to seize her spiritual essence.
"Perhaps the Ancient Daoist Sect's Bedroom Technique can solve this problem, allowing us to benefit each other.
"Also, Huaiqing is also very strong-willed and overbearing. I went to see her yesterday, but she refused to let me in for an hour on the grounds that she was not feeling well.
"Can you guess how I saw her later? I said, 'I haven't been to Lin' an yet. '
"She only saw me now. If she knew that I went to Lin 'an first …"
Xu Qi'an sat on the ground with his back against the bed. While drinking, he looked back at Wei Yuan and said helplessly, "I'm sorry.
I really don't have the energy and time to collect the materials for the Spirit-summoning Bell. The situation has forced me to put collecting the Dragon Breath first.
"If it were in the past, I would choose to resurrect you first. Now, I choose to save the country first. This is a responsibility that I have to bear. You practiced martial arts in order to enter Level Three and take the empress away from the capital.
"But later, when you really have the cultivation and power to look down on the common people, you chose to stay in the imperial court and willingly become Yuan Jing's pawn, a sewing worker of the empire.
"There is a way to satisfy both sides in the world. I will not betray the common people or you."
Xu Qi'an withdrew his gaze and continued to talk.
"I took in a new disciple named Miao Youfang. His aptitude is average, but he is very chivalrous. His dream is to be an indomitable hero.
"At that time, I suddenly felt that I should give him a chance. Because it was you who gave me a chance, a chance to a person with no relatives or friends like me. That's why I have today's Xu Yinluo.
"You cultivate talents for the imperial court, and so do I.
"Duke Wei, this is the inheritance you gave me."
After he finished speaking, the pot of wine was also finished.
Xu Qi'an propped himself up, bowed in front of the bed, and left the secret chamber.
While maintaining the ability of "Star Shifting Dipper" to prevent his aura from leaking, he contacted Sun Xuanji with the help of the Dharmic Conch.
In the one-sided communication, he said concisely,
"See you at the bottom!"
Without giving Senior Brother Sun a chance to reply, he cut off the communication.
…
When Sun Xuanji arrived at the first underground floor, he happened to see Xu Qi'an stroking Fifth Junior Sister's messy hair.
"Wait for me in the Celestial Commissioner's office. It's not that I don't want to bring you along, but it's too dangerous.
"You don't want to die young and unmarried, do you?"
Xu Qi'an felt the smooth hair on his fingertips. Zhong Li looked slovenly, and her hair was messy. She often gave people the impression that she didn't pay attention to personal hygiene.
But her hair was smooth, and there was no smell on her body. In fact, she loved cleanliness.
Zhong Li didn't resist Xu Qi'an's stroking.
She explained in a low voice, "Your luck can offset the bad luck. Nothing bad will happen to me."
"Senior Sister Zhong, you are a woman, but you don't have any sense of propriety …" Xu Qi'an said in a deep voice,
"Have you forgotten the boiling meat soup of Master Hengy Yuan outside Yongzhou City? Have you forgotten what happened in the underground palace? Have you forgotten all the bad luck you had in my house? "
Zhong Li said, "But now you have Dragon Breath with you, plus your original luck …"
Xu Qi'an glared at her. "Are you still not convinced?"
Zhong Li lowered her head, looking like a wronged doormat. She didn't dare to speak.
Xu Qi'an looked at Sun Xuanji and said,
"Senior Brother Sun, please take me out of the capital."
He was afraid that the Master of Nation was still patrolling the boundaries of the capital. Once they met, the Master of Nation would beat his chest with her little fists, the kind that would kill him.
Xu Qi 'an would also go crazy if he was in the other person's shoes and ended up like this.
Sun Xuanji grunted. He glanced at Zhong Li and said,
"She …"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Qi'an had already handed him a pen and paper.
Sun Xuanji suddenly lost the desire to express himself. He lifted his foot and stomped heavily. The teleportation array lit up and disappeared with Xu Qi'an.
"Junior Sister, do you want to advance to the fourth rank as soon as possible so that you can help him resist the future crisis?"
Zhong Li heard the voice and turned her head. She saw the back of Yang Qianhuan's head poking out from the door.
She replied with an honest "Yes".
"What an eventful time."
Yang Qianhuan sighed and said, "After I deal with the business in the capital, I have to go to Jianghu. Teacher Supervisor has arranged a task for me. Although Xu Qi'an is annoying, we are friends after all. I have to help him if I can. "
Zhong Li asked curiously,
"Senior Brother Yang, do you have any other business in the capital?"
Yang Qianhuan said in a low voice,
"It's a secret. But I can tell you something. It's related to the donation."
Zhong Li suddenly understood.
"Senior Brother Yang wants to donate all the property of the Celestial Commissioner?"
"Ah … How did you guess? No, no, no, I didn't think so. Don't accuse me …"
Yang Qianhuan was incoherent for a long time and said disappointedly, "Junior Sister Zhong, remember to keep it a secret for me. I want to catch Teacher Supervisor off guard. "
…
Yunzhou!
Hidden Dragon City, Stargazing Pavilion at the top of the mountain.
"Cough, cough …"
Hoarse coughs echoed in the tea room. A middle-aged man in white was sitting by the table and making tea. He covered his mouth and coughed from time to time.
On the observation deck outside the tea room stood a golden figure like an iron tower.
He was eight feet tall and had a perfect body proportion. He was wearing a kasaya that exposed his chest. His exposed muscles looked like they were cast in gold.
His facial features were obviously characteristic of the people of the Western Regions. When he stood there, he was tall and straight like a bamboo joint.
His eyes were deep and dignified. Those who looked into his eyes would have the illusion of "facing an abyss".
"In your current state, you will be killed by the Supervisor within ten moves."
The golden figure spoke. His voice wasn't loud, but it had a thunderous power.
"The backlash of fate on a warlock is far more terrifying than you can imagine." Xu Pingfeng patiently made tea and sighed.
"Using self-mutilation to cast the Killing Curse on me, my eldest son's combat talent is extremely terrifying. Give him another five or ten years, and his rebellion will be a joke. "
The golden figure looked down at the entire Hidden Dragon City and said slowly,
"Faji Bodhisattva hasn't been found. Otherwise, his Pharmacist Dharma Form could heal your injuries.
"Since you can't do anything now, you have to focus on collecting Dragon Breath.
"The current situation is not good. Emotionless Arhat was captured, and at least half of Arhat's Magic Sealing Nails are gone. Even if he hasn't recovered his Immortal Body, he can still fight at the third stage. "
The warlock in white finished making tea and took a sip. He smiled and said,
"Don't we still have the two Vajras and my Seven Constellations of the Azure Dragon? I observed the stars last night and found another bright star in the west. Is this the birth of a new Arhat, or has the reincarnated Arhat awakened? "
"The youngest son of the Asura King has returned," said the golden figure.
Xu Pingfeng nodded.
"The Asura are natural warriors who cultivate both Buddhism and Martial Arts. The return of the youngest son is equivalent to having one more Vajra and one Arhat.
"There's no hurry to collect Dragon Breath. I have other plans. Since Teacher Supervisor has trapped us in Cloud State, we can take the time to discuss the details of the rebellion."
After saying that, the warlock in white and the golden figure raised their heads at the same time and looked up at the sky.
In the blue sky, the clouds rolled and changed, condensing into a huge face that looked down at the earth coldly.
Supervisor!
…
On this day, Xu Qi 'an and the others arrived at the border of Jiang State and passed by a place called Shengyi County.
The city wall was low, and four guards stood at the entrance of the county. They were holding spears, standing and shivering in the cold wind.
"This damn weather, the sun is like a decoration."
Miao Youfang cursed. He was only one step away from having copper skin and iron bones, and he was no longer afraid of the cold and heat.
However, his mentality was still that of "us ordinary people", and he instinctively put himself in the perspective of ordinary people.
Looking at the hunched bodies of the pedestrians, he felt that he was also persecuted by the "cold current".
The group entered the city, and the bluestone slabs on the main road were covered with cracks. The houses were low, and although they were not too shabby, they were indeed a little ordinary.
This meant that the economic state of Shengyi County was not good.
The pedestrians on the street were in a hurry, and their faces were red from the cold wind. If one looked closely, they would find that most people had frostbite on their hands.
The group found a restaurant on the street and sat down to eat.
"What would you like to eat, sir?"
The Waiter came up and pointed at the wooden signs hanging on the wall. Each wooden sign had a dish written on it.
Xu Qi 'an casually ordered a few dishes and three pots of wine. He smiled and asked,
He smiled and asked, "Waiter, have there been any strange things here recently?"
Strange things … The Waiter looked around and whispered, "What a coincidence.
"What a coincidence, there really are a few strange things."
