Report

The words of the Warlock in white confirmed some of Xu Qi'an's conjectures. The third grade of the Warlock system was called "Master of Celestial Mystery," but no one knew what the second and first grade were called.

In today's Nine Provinces, except for the first generation who created the Warlock system and the traitor, no one knew what the first and second grade were.

Even the Act Tough King Yang Qianhuan, a direct disciple, knew nothing about it.

It was conceivable that the first and second grade of the Warlock system hid a huge secret.

When the Buddhist Mission arrived at the capital, he and Wei Yuan chatted and learned that the Buddhist Sect and the current Supervisor played a crucial role in the usurpation of Emperor Wu Zong.

They single-handedly led to the fall of the Initial Supervisor.

Later, when he rescued Lina in the underground palace, he met a wild Warlock named Gùng Su, from whom he learned that the first and second grade of the Warlock system hid a big secret.

From then on, Xu Qi'an guessed that the Supervisor killed his teacher, most likely related to the grade.

"It seems that you already have an idea."

The Warlock in white stared at Xu Qi'an for a moment and said leisurely.

My idea is that the second grade of the Warlock is called "Evil Disciple," while the first grade is called "Master Killer" … Xu Qi'an complained in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it out.

He remained silent.

The Warlock in white observed Zhao Shou who was trying to break the formation and said,

"The second grade of the Warlock is called" Qi Cultivator. "

A big question mark flashed in Xu Qi'an's mind. This was a bit beyond his expectation. To be honest, the name "Qi Cultivator" was a bit mediocre and didn't seem to match the rank of the second grade of the Warlock.

Then he heard the Warlock in white say with a smile, "The 'Qi' of fate."

Luck … Qi Refinement Warriors practice luck?!

Xu Qi'an's pupils shrank slightly. He suddenly felt enlightened, but new doubts surged in his mind.

He suddenly felt enlightened because he knew why the Initial Supervisor could steal the fate of Daibun and refine it into his body. This was the authority of the second grade Qi Cultivator.

He was puzzled because he didn't understand what this had to do with the Supervisor killing his teacher.

"What does this have to do with the Supervisor betraying you?"

He calmly asked the question in his heart.

The warlock in white did not answer him. Instead, he opened the sachet again. At the same time, Xu Qi'an heard Zhao Shou say in a deep voice,

"Formations are prohibited here."

The deep voice seemed to contain a terrifying power, and the laws of heaven and earth changed because of it.

The formations that drew upon the power of heaven and earth and used the energies of the five elements to strangle Zhao Shou vanished without a sound.

Beautiful! Xu Qi'an secretly cheered.

The two sides were in a deadlock. Zhao Shou had perfectly stalled the Initial Supervisor. He was just waiting for the veteran Rank-1, Salen Agu, to be chased away by the traitor. Then, he would be saved.

Seeing that the formation was broken, the warlock in white was not in a hurry. He took out a magic weapon from the open sachet. It was a small Eight Trigrams copper plate.

The Eight Trigrams copper plate flew up into the sky and condensed on top of Zhao Shou's head. Light sprinkled down, and an Eight Trigrams large formation shrouded Zhao Shou, trapping him again.

"You might as well try to forbid the use of magic weapons here."

The warlock in white laughed and said, "This way, you can't use the Quasi-sage Confucian Crown, and I can take advantage of the situation to kill you."

Zhao Shou was silent. The backlash of the Word of Obedience Law did not allow him to change the laws of heaven and earth again and again.

"Paywall players will die a horrible death …" Xu Qi'an cursed in his heart. The glimmer of hope that had just been born disappeared in an instant.

The warlock system did not seem to have strong attack power at first glance, but they were good at formations and refining. As long as they had enough time and resources, they could do paywall.

If their combat power was not enough, they could make up for it with magic weapons.

It was simply disgusting.

After throwing out the Eight Trigrams copper plate, the warlock in white said leisurely, "The first rank warlock is called 'Destiny'."

After a pause, he said in a deep voice, "Knowing Destiny!"

"The Supervisor strategizes and secretly arranges everything. All of this is based on the authority of 'Destiny'. However, Destiny has a great drawback. The Supervisor can only always arrange things in the dark. He can't directly intervene and can't reveal the secrets of heaven.

"Let me give you an example. For example, if he knows that I am going to sneak attack today, he can't tell you and can't directly help you. He can only help you through some tactful means. For example, he can seal the Demonic Monk Shenshu in your body.

"In fact, he did the same. However, all things in the world reinforce and counteract each other. I can't do anything to Shenshu, but someone can. "

Xu Qi'an nodded. "This reminds me of the sorcerer's divination."

The warlock in white smiled and nodded. "Warlocks are born from the sorcerer system."

"But what does this have to do with the Supervisor killing his teacher?" Xu Qi'an asked.

Hearing this, the warlock in white sighed. "The condition for a Qi cultivator to advance to Destiny is to refine the fate of a country. You might not understand what I'm saying. "

"Who the hell are you looking down on …" Xu Qi'an nodded. "It's indeed hard to understand."

The warlock in white explained patiently, "Let me put it in a more understandable way. Supporting a person of Destiny to ascend to the throne and establish a country is the key for a second rank Qi cultivator to advance to first rank Destiny."

Boom!

It was like a sudden clap of thunder exploding in his ears. The explosion made Xu Qi'an's scalp tingle.

All the mysteries were solved.

That was why the Supervisor chose to help Emperor Wu Zong, colluded with Buddhism and betrayed his teacher.

The Supervisor successfully advanced to first rank by supporting Emperor Wu Zong.

As for the Initial Supervisor, because he lost his' country ', he fell from first rank to second rank.

No wonder the warlocks needed to rely on the imperial court. A dynasty that ruled the Central Plains was the foundation of the warlocks.

That was why the First Supervisor said that if the Supervisor killed Joan of Arc, he would be destroying his own foundation. If he killed me, he would only have to bear the backlash of fate. He wouldn't destroy his own foundation.

"Can't you choose a prince from the current dynasty and support him to ascend to the throne?" Xu Qi'an probed.

The warlock in white shook his head. "This is not enough for a Qi cultivator to advance."

Xu Qi'an was silent for a long time. He couldn't help but ask, "Was there something wrong with your brain back then? Why did you accept a disciple? "

He worked so hard to teach his disciple just to let him stab him in the back?

The warlock in white was silent. He pierced the eighth and ninth golden nails into Xu Qi'an's body. At this point, all the nails were inserted.

Shen Shu was completely sealed.

"…"

Xu Qi'an wanted to slap himself. If he could move his hands.

The warlock in white sighed. "Because the change of a dynasty is the law of nature. No one can stop it. The destruction of a dynasty must be accompanied by the fall of a Supervisor.

"That's why I accepted a disciple. If I didn't, the warlock system would become dust in history. Speaking of which, it was fortunate that it was the Wu Zong who rebelled. Although the royal family changed, Daibun was still Daibun.

"That's why I only fell in rank. I didn't die."

So, being stabbed in the back by a disciple was the fate that the warlock system had to bear? Xu Qi'an had a strange look on his face.

"You tried to help the branch of the past to regain the throne. That way, you could return to the first rank?"

"That's obvious."

The warlock in white nodded.

Xu Qi'an said word by word, "Then, the current Supervisor fell back to the second rank and began his new plan to kill his teacher?"

The relationship between master and disciple began?

The warlock in white glanced at him. His tone suddenly became cold. "Do you have any last words?"

Xu Qi'an didn't say anything.

The warlock in white stretched out his hand and took the fragment of the Book of the Underworld from Xu Qi'an's pocket.

Xu Qi'an felt a sharp pain in his head. He knew that his "master-servant relationship" with the fragment of the Book of the Underworld had been removed.

His heart sank.

The white-robed Warlock turned over the small jade mirror and poured out a long sword that was as clear as water. It was emitting a faint glow.

Then, he stuffed the fragment of the Book of the Underworld back into Xu Qi'an's pocket.

He … he gave it back to me?!

Xu Qi'an looked at him in a daze. So, he only took out his Lunar Shadow Sword?

This sword was the spoil of war he obtained after killing Ji Qian.

Its quality was no worse than his Taiping Saber. It just didn't have an Artifact Spirit, so it couldn't be ranked among the top divine weapons.

"Do you know the true meaning of a fourth rank formation master?"

The warlock in white held the Lunar Shadow Sword. He turned his head and smiled at Xu Qi'an.

Without waiting for Xu Qi'an to speak, he continued.

"Formations are actually the laws of heaven and earth. Otherwise, how could they summon wind, rain, thunder, and lightning? How could they borrow the power of heaven and earth? So, as long as I have enough time, I will be able to understand the laws of heaven and earth that the Confucian school has modified and break it. "

As he spoke, he rubbed his palm on the Lunar Shadow Sword, creating many twisted and profound incantations.

Xu Qi'an subconsciously closed his eyes. Looking at these incantations would give him a headache and dizziness. It was the same feeling when looking at the dragon tooth.

The warlock in white raised the Lunar Shadow Sword and chopped down gently. Dean Zhao Shou's Prison Drawing Ground immediately shattered.

He said so much to me. He was not really wasting time. Instead, he was trying to comprehend the laws of heaven and earth … Xu Qi'an understood. Suddenly, he felt a huge pressure.

The Initial Supervisor was as scary as the Supervisor.

When fighting with such a person, there was too little room for mistakes. The pressure was too great.

In comparison, the half-crazed Joan of Arc was too easy to deal with.

The warlock in white slowly put away the Lunar Shadow Sword. He did not even look at Zhao Shou, whose expression had changed slightly. He still spoke in a calm tone.

"Oh, I almost forgot something. I still have to block your Heavenly Secrets."

Under Xu Qi'an's pale face, he slowly said,

"In the Sword Province, you have established a relationship with the ancestor of the Wulin League, right? A half-step Second Stage Warrior is stronger than Zhao Shou.

"But a Warrior is a Warrior. It is not difficult to deal with him. I only need to block you, and he will forget about your existence."

Xu Qi'an's expression was unsightly. Beads of cold sweat appeared on his forehead. He opened his mouth silently, but no words came out.

The warlock in white raised his hand and gently brushed it toward him.

It was as if something had been obscured in the dark.

The warlock in white grabbed Xu Qi'an's shoulder and said, "Let's go!"

The two of them immediately disappeared.

He had also broken the law of not allowing teleportation.



On the official road, Xu Pingzhi, who was galloping madly on the horse, suddenly showed a confused expression. He pulled the reins and looked around, not knowing what he was going to do.

"Why am I here? What am I going to do?"

He muttered to himself.

Just as he was confused, a shout came from behind, "Your excellency Xu, what are you going to do?"

Xu Pingzhi looked back and saw Zhang Shen of the Yunlu Academy coming with the wind.

"I, I don't know what I am going to do either …"

Xu Pingzhi answered blankly.

Zhang Shen said helplessly, "Everything was fine. Why did you suddenly go crazy? Your wife and daughter are still waiting for you in the academy. "

Xu Pingzhi frowned and came to a sudden realization. Right, because his nephew died in the Yunzhou, he was depressed all day long. His daughter, Lingyue, even missed him when she saw the object and cried all day long.

His daughter Xu Lingyin often woke up crying at night, shouting to find her brother. Sometimes when she thought of her brother at the banquet, she would be sad and eat five big bowls of food in a row.

Therefore, he resigned from the position of centurion of the Imperial Blade Guards and planned to settle down in Sword Province with his wife and daughter.

Thinking of this, Xu Pingzhi looked gloomy and sighed.

"I'm sorry, since Ning Yan died in Yunzhou, I have been mentally unstable and do some inexplicable things."

Ning Yan? Who …

Zhang Shen was stunned for a moment and asked, "Who is Ning Yan?"

Xu Pingzhi showed a sad expression. "He is my nephew. He died in Yunzhou at a young age."

Zhang Shen nodded.

Although Xu Xinnian was his student, he did not have a deep relationship with the Xu family. This time, he was entrusted by his student Xu Ci to send the Xu family to settle down in Sword Province.



In the suburbs of the capital.

Chu Yuanzhen sat cross-legged on the ridge of the sword and said with tears streaming down his face:

"Di Wudao brought disaster to the country and the people. Fortunately, there was a master who eliminated the evil and protected the righteous. Otherwise, the six hundred years of the Daibun's foundation would have been destroyed by the hands of a muddle-headed ruler."

Master Hengy Yuan put his palms together. "Good, good. It is a pity that the master came and went without a trace. He did not leave his name and left with a flick of his robe, hiding his achievements and fame."

Li Miaozhen stood on the flying sword and frowned. She felt a sense of fear for no reason, only feeling that she had lost something important.

She touched her belly and said, "It's over. I should return to Yunlu Academy. The Xu family is waiting for me."

At this point, she suddenly frowned. For a moment, she could not remember why she was staying at the Xu family.

A few seconds later, she came to a sudden realization. Yes, after coming to the capital, she met the daughter of the Xu family, Xu Lingyin. She found this peerless genius from the vast sea of people and took her as a disciple to teach her cultivation.



Royal Palace, Shaoyin Palace.

Lin An was looking for something in the study room like a madwoman. Her movements were rough, books were thrown everywhere, and vases were broken on the ground.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, what are you looking for?"

Her personal maid was anxious.

Lin An stopped and stood there blankly. Tears flowed down her white cheeks. She choked and said:

"I, I forgot something important …"

The two maids looked at each other. They had no idea what the second princess was talking about.

At a certain moment, Lin An saw a chessboard among the scattered books and saw the scattered chess pieces.

She still did not remember what she had forgotten, but instinctively, she felt that this chessboard was very important. She squatted down and hugged the chessboard tightly, tears falling like rain.

On the chessboard, black ink wrote:

Chu He Han Boundary!



In another part of the palace.

The Fourth Prince said in a low voice, "Huaiqing, father has passed away. The Crown Prince has finally come to an end. But, but I am not reconciled …"

After the death of Wei Yuan, he had lost his biggest pillar of support. It was impossible for him to defeat the legitimate Crown Prince.

The murder of the Emperor by the mysterious master was bound to cause turmoil in the court. At this juncture, the officials would definitely support the Crown Prince to ascend the throne to stabilize the situation.

The Fourth Prince felt that his future was bleak.

At that moment, he found that his sister, Huaiqing, who had always been resourceful, had a dull look on her face. Her eyes were filled with sadness.

"Huaiqing, I know that father's death made you sad, but, but father was immoral. That was why that peerless master attacked out of anger."

The Fourth Prince said in a low voice, "Now is not the time to be sad. As long as the Crown Prince does not ascend the throne, we still have a chance. You must help brother."

Huaiqing gently held her chest.

It hurts. Her heart hurts as if it was empty.



In a small courtyard somewhere.

Mu Nanzi sat on the roof, holding her cheeks and thinking about life.

The door of the courtyard was pushed open. Aunt Zhang rushed in and shouted:

"Lady Mu, why are you sitting on the roof?"

Mu Nanzi did not answer. She looked down at her and said softly, "Aunt Zhang, what's wrong …"

As soon as she said it, she realized that there was something wrong with her voice. It was very nasal.

Aunt Zhang said anxiously, "The neighbors are saying that Capital City is finished. The Emperor has been killed and they are planning to escape. Are you going? Call your man … "

Aunt Zhang suddenly stopped talking. She looked at her with a strange expression. "Lady Mu, why are you crying?"

Mu Nanzi was stunned. She touched her face and found that her hands were wet with tears.

"I-I … My husband is dead," she said sadly.

"Huh? When did this happen? "

Aunt Zhang was shocked.

She cried, "I don't know. I … I forgot …"



Somewhere in the suburbs of Capital City.

Luo Yuheng held her sword in one hand and held her forehead with the other. She looked slightly pained.

"Xu … Xu Qi'an, Xu Qi'an …"

She tried her best to fight against something, but she could not stop herself from forgetting some information.
