After weighing the pros and cons, Xu Qi'an analyzed the current situation.
"Let her keep our master in check. Leave the matter of the Son of Saint to me. What she needs to consider now is not when I should save her, but how long she can delay it."
Master Hengy Yuan said, "I understand. I will relay it to her word for word."
Xu Qi'an continued, "How has your cultivation been?"
Master Hengy Yuan replied, "I am already comprehending the Vajra Divine Art. I will be able to reach the threshold of the Vajra Divine Art in half a month to two months."
This meant that Master Hengy Yuan's real combat power was no weaker than a rank-four. He was qualified to cultivate the Vajra Divine Art and break through to the rank-three Vajra Realm … Xu Qi'an was delighted.
Before leaving, he imparted the Vajra Divine Art to Master Hengy Yuan. Cultivating the Vajra Divine Art required specific qualifications, but he believed that Master Hengy Yuan, who had the Arhat Buddhahood, could definitely cultivate the Vajra Divine Art.
There was no doubt about it.
"Cultivating the Vajra Divine Art is a prerequisite for entering the rank-three Vajra Realm. Master Hengy Yuan will at least be rank-three in the future. This means that I will have a Vajra as a fighter in the future. The investment I made in Master Hengy Yuan is finally starting to show signs …"
Xu Qi'an was in a good mood. He asked, "What about Chu Yuanzhen?"
"Almsgiver Chu has yet to step into his own path of the sword," Master Hengy Yuan said.
Xu Qi'an sighed.
Sigh, this fool. He didn't wear Pinru's clothes but chose to wear Metersbonwe — not the usual path.
How could it be so easy to forge a new path? If Chu Yuanzhen could succeed, he would probably be the most talented person among the members of the Heaven & Earth Society.
But to be honest, the secret technique of Intent Nurturing was indeed powerful. It could accumulate power in a disguised way. When the time had reached a certain level, even a rookie could have the combat power to kill a big shot.
Back then, Chu Yuanzhen's Ten-Year Sword Will had directly broken the physique of a Third Grade Warrior and caused significant damage.
After ending the private chat, Xu Qi'an turned around and put away the Earth Book fragment before walking out of the graveyard.
Mu Nanzi sat on the back of the little mare with the little white fox in her arms. Xu Qi'an led the horse and walked side by side with Li Lingsu. The puppet Heng Yin walked in front.
"What's with Tenzō's Taishang Wang Qing?"
Xu Qi'an suddenly asked.
"Didn't I tell you in your dream when we were in Pingzhou?" Li Lingsu murmured in his heart. Then, he smiled and said, "How can you not be moved by loneliness, like a forgotten person?"
You'd better speak human language! Xu Qi'an gave him a sidelong glance.
"Actually, it's very simple. According to the records in Tenzō's Treasure Book, as well as my own understanding, the root of the Taishang Wang Qing lies in 'forgetting'. Why forget? Did he forget? No. Was it heartless? Also no. "
Li Lingsu said with fervor and assurance, "He has feelings, but he's beyond them. He's not tied down by feelings, and he's not trapped by feelings. He's at a detached level. Let me give you an example. Between saving the world and saving one person, which one will you choose? "
He suddenly became philosophical … Xu Qi'an thought for a while and didn't answer. Because he felt that answering would expose his character.
Li Lingsu waited for a while, but he didn't get an answer from Xu Qian. Then, he said,
"A normal person will naturally choose to save the world and abandon one person. If that person is a loved one, he will choose to save one person and abandon the world. Why? Because when he made the choice, he was trapped by feelings.
"The Taishang Wang Qing will choose to save the world instead of saving one person, even if that person is a loved one."
Xu Qi'an thought and said, "In that case, Li Miaozhen upholds justice and puts the world first. Isn't that the Taishang Wang Qing?"
"No, no, no!"
Li Lingsu shook his head repeatedly. "She's chivalrous and nosy, which is a sign of being trapped by feelings. It's her sense of justice that urges her to eradicate evil. In addition, if Junior Sister really falls in love with a man, I can guarantee that she will choose to save one person and abandon the world. "
"In that case, you're on the right path?" Xu Qi'an said with a smile.
"Of course!" Li Lingsu raised his chin.
Then, he noticed that there was something wrong with Xu Qian's gaze. The Tenzō Saint's heart skipped a beat. "Why are you looking at me like that, Senior?"
Xu Qi'an smiled and said nothing.
"Senior's gaze makes me very uneasy," Li Lingsu asked.
Xu Qi'an still smiled and said nothing.
If the Taishang Wang Qing was a math question of what 1 + 1 equals, Li Miaozhen's answer would be "3". The Tenzō Saint laughed and said,
"Idiot, it's obviously equal to 9."
Unbeknownst to him, the math teacher behind him held his pointer and revealed a kind smile.
As for how to save Li Miaozhen, Xu Qi'an's idea was to delay until the Seven Absolutes Gu reached a higher level, then he would consider how to save her.
As long as he "controlled" Li Lingsu and went around in circles with the experts of the Tenzō Saint, it would be fine. And the Heaven Gu's "Shifting Stars" ability was a stronger concealment method than shielding the heavenly secrets.
When he had enough strength and sufficient preparation, he would throw Li Lingsu out as bait.
"If I do it well, I can even borrow the power of the Tenzō Saint to deal with the Buddhists, the Witchcraft Cult, and Xu Pingfeng …"
Thinking of this, Xu Qi'an asked, "By the way, how is your master's cultivation?"
"Third grade Yang God," Li Lingsu said.
"Very good …" Xu Qi 'an laughed.
As he walked, he suddenly saw a deep pit that had collapsed in the distance. While restraining his restless heart, he said, "That's right.
"I'm going to do something, you guys go back to the inn first."
No one doubted, nor did they ask much, and continued to move forward.
The little white fox stretched out its hand from Mu Nanzi's arms and waved its little paw.
Watching the figures of the people getting further and further away until they disappeared, Xu Qi'an could not wait to get into the deep pit, as if he had returned home, revealing a satisfied smile.
…
In a small city at the border of Qingzhou, Guanghan County.
In the best restaurant in the city, "Fragrant Mountain Restaurant", in a private room, Ji Xuan held a plate of fried worm pupae and ate happily.
"Delicious, although it looks ugly, it has a different flavor when eaten. Sister Yuan Shuang, do you want a plate? "
Xu Yuanshuang frowned slightly. She had not eaten for a long time, as if her appetite was affected.
In the spacious private room, there were seven people: Xu Yuanshuang with bright eyes and white teeth; Xu Yuanhuai with a cold and serious face habitually, and the core of this team, Ji Xuan.
Besides these three, the other four, from left to right, were Taoist Banana Leaf wearing a white washed Taoist robe. He had a goatee, white hair, and deep crow's feet around his eyes.
Taoist Banana Leaf was a wandering Taoist, proficient in all kinds of divination, and had spent half of his life on these "unorthodox skills", so his cultivation was not high.
But in the pugilistic world, an experienced senior was even more important than a Peak Strength Warrior.
Then there was a skinny man in a mottled colorful robe, called Qihuan Dan Xiang. This person was a wandering Gu Master of Heart Voodoo Division. In Yunzhou, he encountered a country gentleman bullying the people, so he controlled poisonous insects to exterminate the whole family.
His extreme character was evident.
Thus, he was wanted by Yunzhou's government, and by chance, he joined Hidden Dragon City and became a guest elder of the city lord's manor.
On the left of Qihuan Dan Xiang was a charming and enchanting woman. She had a sharp face, fiery red lips, and large and charming eyes that looked like they could seduce people. In early winter, she wore a thin gauze dress that exposed her shoulders, waist, and calves, showing off the charm of a mature woman.
Her name was Liu Hongmian, born in Wan Hua Lou of Jianzhou. She and her junior sister, Xiao Yuenu, fought for the position of building head, and lost. She left Jianzhou in anger, and was taken in by Hidden Dragon City, becoming a guest elder of the city lord's manor.
The last person had a special identity, he could not be called a human. Although he looked like a strong and dignified man, his true form was a white tiger.
He was nurtured by Imperial Preceptor Xu Pingfeng, and was one of the four leaders of the 28 Constellations, White Tiger.
All four of them had special abilities, and their methods were superb. With Xu Yuanshuang, a Warlock, the entire team had almost no shortcomings.
Heart Gu Master Qihuan Dan Xiang smiled and said,
"Jianzhou's west is close to Southern Border, and this way of eating was passed down from Southern Border. But the people of the Central Plains are more particular, and know how to use frying and spices to get rid of the fishy smell. The people of Southern Border usually eat it raw, or cook it in boiling water, and sprinkle some salt at most. "
Ji Xuan finished his plate quickly, and took a sip of wine, sighing,
"Layman Zi Yang is indeed the orthodox Confucian, managing Jianzhou in an orderly manner. If Hidden Dragon City can obtain the support of the orthodox Confucian, how can it not succeed? Yuanhuai, why do you think Imperial Preceptor did not look for the Confucian school? "
The old-fashioned and stern young man heard this, and frowned, pondering for a while before shaking his head.
Xu Yuanshuang said plainly, "Because Daibun's destiny has not ended, and the Confucian school values destiny the most, and understands it the most. When the Confucian school makes a move, it means that the dynasty's destiny has ended. For example, back then, Great Scholar Qian Zhong destroyed the Great Zhou's dragon vein, and ended the Great Zhou's final destiny.
"Back then, when Emperor Wu Zong rebelled, the Confucian school did not help, nor did they stop him. This is actually a good thing, and it proves that this time, the Confucian school will also watch without lifting a finger. When uncle ascends to the throne and replaces Daibun, will we still be afraid that the Confucian school will not be of use to us? "
Ji Xuan gave a thumbs up, "If Sister Yuan Shuang was a man, it would not be a problem for her to be the Grand Secretary."
Xu Yuanshuang's expression was cold, and she did not reply.
Ji Xuan rubbed his chin, and laughed dryly. He looked at everyone and said,
"Yesterday, I received a secret report from the Shadow Guards. The first Dragon Breath appeared in Thunder Province's Three Flower Temple, and it is attached to the Buddha's Pagoda. Ten days ago, Thunder Province's pugilistic people had a conflict with Three Flower Temple because of this. "
The Shadow Guards were a spy organization that Hidden Dragon City had nurtured, and they were spread across the thirteen continents of the Central Plains. They were in charge of gathering intelligence, and their nature was similar to the spies in the night watch.
Xu Yuanshuang's eyes lit up, and she asked, "What was the result?"
Ji Xuan clicked his tongue and said, "According to Thunder Province's Warrior who participated in this matter, the Dragon Breath was taken away by Celestial Commissioner's Sun Xuanji and a person called Xu Qian, along with the Buddha's Pagoda. Yes, it was taken away under the noses of Du Nan and Ilbu. "
At that time, Sun Xuanji erased the Buddha's Pagoda, as well as the 'existence' of everyone in the pagoda. Following the departure of those pugilistic people, it was' exposed 'to the public, and the Art of Concealing Heaven's Secrets was automatically removed.
Just like that day when Xu Pingfeng appeared in the capital, the Art of Concealing Heaven's Secrets was immediately ineffective.
Daoist Jiao Ye stroked his beard and said,
"This is just as we expected. Celestial Commissioner is collecting Dragon Breath, and his progress is even faster than us. He has already obtained one of the nine Dragon Breath. In addition, the Buddhist sects are indeed collecting Dragon Breath. I'm sure the Witchcraft God Cult will not miss this rare opportunity.
"This water is very muddy. Also, what kind of person is Xu Qian?"
Liu Hongmian from Wan Hua Lou laughed delicately.
"Muddy water has its advantages. When the sandpiper and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits."
"Miss Hongmian is right." Ji Xuan nodded in agreement, and then answered Taoist Priest Banana Leaf,
"The Shadow Guards did not find out this person's background. They only know that this person is proficient in poison, and should be from the Gu clan."
Everyone looked at Joy Seeking Pill Fragrance. Heart Gu Master frowned, "This is obviously the name of a person from the Central Plains. His appearance can be disguised, but to be able to snatch the Dragon Breath from the hands of two Rank 3 experts, this person is definitely not simple."
"So, can you guess his identity?" Ji Xuan asked.
Joy Seeking Pill Fragrance shook her head.
"Although the Gu technique of the Gu clan is rarely taught to outsiders, there is an exception. For example, the people of the Love Gu Clan like to provoke outsiders and force them to stay in the clan.
"Those who are affected by the Love Gu stay in the Gu clan either voluntarily or have no choice. After a long time, they will learn the Gu technique. Once they escape, the Gu technique will also spread everywhere. It is possible for anyone below Rank 4, so it is impossible to determine that he is from the Gu clan. "
White Tiger said lightly, "Could it be Xu Qi 'an?"
Xu Yuanshuang and Xu Yuanhuai raised their eyebrows at the same time.
Ji Xuan frowned, "Unfounded speculation will only affect our judgment."
Joy Seeking Pill Fragrance added, "The cultivation of the Gu technique is difficult, and it needs to be implanted with the Natal Gu at a young age. Xu Qi 'an is a Warrior, so it is impossible for him to change to the Gu technique overnight and have a certain level of attainment."
White Tiger nodded.
Liu Hongmian giggled and said, "What a pity. I heard that Xu Qi 'an is dissolute and lustful, and he is a frequent customer of the Musical House in the capital. If it's him, his honey trap will be in the bag. "
Xu Yuanshuang sneered, "Stupid. Is he the kind of person who can't walk away from a woman?"
Liu Hongmian smiled charmingly, "I don't need to plot anything from him. I just need to sleep with him. Hey, Sister Yuan Shuang seems to be indignant. I understand. It turns out that you also like Xu Yinluo. "
"Bang!" Xu Yuanshuang slammed the table and stood up, saying angrily, "What did you say!"
These Foreign Officials did not know Xu Qi 'an's background.
Ji Xuan laughed and teased, "Miss Hongmian, if you want to sleep with Xu Qi 'an, you can go to the capital to find him. But before that, we have to go to Yongzhou. "
"Yongzhou?"
Taoist Jiao Ye asked.
"There will be a Martial Arts Circle Convention in Yongzhou soon. It is said that it will be jointly organized by the local Jianghu forces, the Gongsun Clan and the Dragon God Castle. Those who want to make a name for themselves will go to Yongzhou, "Ji Xuan said.
Taoist Jiao Ye suddenly understood. He stroked his beard and laughed, "At that time, we can identify the person who is possessed by Dragon Breath."
…
In the underground of the Celestial Commissioner.
Yang Qianhuan stood at the door of a room. He pointed the back of his head at Zhong Li and said in a deep voice,
"Junior Sister Zhong, I won't stay with you. Teacher has agreed to let me go."
The disheveled Zhong Li was stunned. She said in a soft voice, "Senior Brother Yang, have you given up on the idea of killing the emperor?"
Yang Qianhuan snorted. "I'll allow the Emperor to be smug for a few more days. If he were to follow in Yuan Jing's footsteps in the future, I, Yang Qianhuan, will definitely execute him in the throne room in front of the three million citizens of the capital city."
He would never admit that it was because he gave in that the supervising teacher let him go and let him out.
Yesterday, the Crown Prince had ascended to the throne and changed his reign to 'Yongxing'.
"The people in the capital can't see the throne room …" Zhong Li said softly.
"What did you say?" Yang Qianhuan did not hear her clearly.
Zhong Li shook her head and said, "Won't you lose your goal? What's the point of going out?"
Yang Qianhuan stared at her with a burning gaze.
"I have already thought of how to make a name for myself and have a detailed plan. Xu Qi'an is not in the capital now. This is a golden opportunity. If I don't rise now, when will I?
"When he returns to the capital in the future, he will realize that the people in the capital have long forgotten about Xu Yinluo. They only have Yang Qianhuan in their hearts."
Senior Brother Yang's tone was calm and confident.
Zhong Li asked curiously, "What good idea does Senior Brother Yang have?"
