Chapter 766

"Whoosh …"

A gust of chilly wind blew out of the sachet, and the temperature in the room plummeted. An illusory figure appeared in the air.

His face was blank, and his eyes were lifeless.

When a person died, the "heaven" and "earth" souls would leave the body and enter a muddle-headed state. The mortal soul would hide in the body for seven days before coming out. At that time, the celestial and human souls would come looking for the mortal soul.

Once the three souls were gathered, the person would regain their memories and escape from the muddle-headed state.

That was how the term "seven days of the head" came about.

"This young man is no ordinary person. He knows everything about the destiny in my body. I might be able to get some core secrets out of him …"

Xu Qi'an took a deep breath. He felt his heart beat faster and his blood boil. He hadn't been this excited in a long time.

At that moment, his ears twitched. He heard Susu's charming voice from outside the yard. "Ah, you can't go in. My husband is resting, and no one is allowed to disturb him."

Qiu Chanyi's unhappy voice followed. "I'm just going in to take a look."

"Daoist Chanyi may be a monk, but you should know that men and women should keep their distance. Who would go into a man's room in the middle of the night?"

"Heaven & Earth Society owes Prince Xu a great debt of gratitude. What's wrong with me going in to visit him? A monk has a clear conscience."

"Oh, you have a clear conscience, huh? Your Heaven Earth Association has thirty-four disciples, why did you come alone? You're just lusting after his body. "

"You, you, you …" Qiu Chanyi blushed.

"You what? You look like a young girl yearning for love. I've been there before. How could I not know what you little hussies are thinking?" Susu put her hands on her waist like a fighting little hen.

"My husband is lustful, and he can't be choosy. I advise you to keep your distance and be careful. Otherwise, you'll lose your virginity and be abandoned. That won't be a nice thing to say."

Susu snorted. "Or is this what Daoist Chanyi wants?"

"I, I'll go find Senior Uncle Jinlian …"

Qiu Chanyi was just a little girl, so there was no way she could fight Susu. She stomped her foot in shame and ran away.

"I'll go find the Jinlian Taoist priest …" Xu Qi'an looked at the floating soul in the room, sighed, and put away the sachet.

He suddenly realized that he had been too impatient. There were experts like Chu Yuanzhen in the villa. Even if they didn't eavesdrop, they would still hear his biggest secret if they happened to be passing by.

"I'll first reassure Taoist Priest Golden Lotus and the others, then I'll ask Yang Qianhuan to set up a soundproof spell formation …" Xu Qi 'an hung the sachet back on his waist, opened the door, and waved at Susu who was outside the courtyard.

Susu put her hands behind her back and walked briskly into the house, humming a little tune.

"It seems that you have a sense of belonging to your identity," Xu Qi 'an said, pleased.

Although this beautiful female ghost refused verbally, she was honest in her heart. She was already a concubine of the Xu family, and she was hostile to women who tried to seduce her husband.

"I just think it's fun to ruin your plan and slander your image." Susu giggled mischievously, feeling proud of herself.

Men always liked to think that they were right. She was enjoying the pleasure of breaking up a couple, but he thought that she was jealous because of him.

Xu Qi'an's face darkened. He put his hand on Susu's shoulder and said, "When you have a physical body, I'll fill you with the pleasure of bloating."

Susu raised her head and stuck out her tongue at him, making a face. Amidst her charming charm, there was a tinge of cuteness.

While they were talking, the Jinlian Taoist priest rushed in. Behind him were Taoist nun White Lotus, Li Miaozhen, Chu Yuanzhen, Southern Border's Little Black Leather and Master Hengy Yuan.

Yang Qianhuan and Nangong Qianrou did not come to visit him.

"The battle is tomorrow. We need to discuss it in advance. How do you feel?" The Jinlian Taoist priest grabbed Xu Qi'an's wrist and felt his pulse. His face was heavy.

"I'll recover after resting for three to five days. I'm sorry about tomorrow's battle …" Xu Qi'an sighed.

His current situation was that his strength had recovered, but he did not have Qi dynamic. He could fight, but he could not unleash his full strength. Unless the enemy did not use Qi dynamic and fought him with their bare hands.

"That's not good!"

Suddenly, a figure in white flashed and appeared in the room. He was facing the window with his back facing everyone.

Yang Qianhuan said unhurriedly, "The formation I set up has eight layers. The eye of each layer needs an expert to guard it. I had originally set up a defensive formation based on your Divine Vajra Art. "

Although they had won the battle at night and killed the young master and two peak fourth rank retainers, these two people were extra.

However, these two people were extra to begin with, and they had lost a great master like Xu Qi 'an.

Xu Qi'an muttered, "Nangong Qianrou can fill in."

Yang Qianhuan did not give him any face and chuckled, "Compared to your Divine Vajra Art, the physique of a fourth rank Warrior is still lacking. Don't forget that Duke Huai's secret agents have cannons and ballistae. "

The Jinlian Taoist priest shook his head. "Nangong Jinluo was part of the plan. It's not an extra surprise."

The enemy had the Earth Sect, six fourth rank martial artists and one third rank Taoist head clone; Duke Huai's secret agent, two fourth rank Warrior and several other experts; the Wulin League, one third rank super expert and several fourth rank sect leaders and sect leaders.

On their side, they could confirm that those who had fourth rank combat strength were the Jinlian Taoist priest, White Lotus Taoist nun, Chu Yuanzhen, Li Miaozhen, Xu Qi'an, Yang Qianhuan and Nangong Qianrou.

In comparison, the Heaven & Earth Society could only deal with the combined forces of the Earth Sect and Duke Huai's secret agents. However, because they had the home advantage and set up a formation, they had the confidence to fight against the other forces.

In the Jinlian Taoist priest's plan, as long as they could hold out until the lotus seeds ripened, they could abandon the villa and not fight to the death.

The premise was that they could hold out.

"That's not right. Whether I've recovered or not, I won't be able to hold out for long. Even if I can 'force' the wanderers and some fourth rank martial artists of the Wulin League to retreat, I won't be able to hold out for long.

"But treasures move people's hearts. It's impossible for everyone to give me face. At most, they'll show me some mercy. If that's the case, I still won't be able to hold out …"

At this thought, Xu Qi'an's heart skipped a beat. He realized that something was wrong.

What else did the Jinlian Taoist priest have to rely on?

As soon as he thought of this, he heard the Jinlian Taoist priest say in a gentle tone, "Xu Qi'an, what do you think?"

Xu Qi'an shook his head.

The Jinlian Taoist priest looked at him with his slightly wrinkled eyes and reminded him, "Think about it carefully."

Xu Qi'an narrowed his eyes and stared at him. Their gazes met. It seemed calm, but in fact, countless information flashed through their eyes.

What did the Jinlian Taoist priest mean? He knew my secret … Was it because of luck or God?

The Taoist priest knew about the ambiguous relationship between me and the Supervisor, but he didn't know that I carried the destiny of Daibun … I remembered that when I came out of the underground palace, I used the excuse that the Supervisor had left a hand in my body when I subdued the Ancient Corpse. It wasn't wrong, he did leave a hand in my body.

So, the Jinlian Taoist priest thought that the Supervisor still had a hand in his body? Was this what he had been planning all along? No wonder he was so calm. The Taoist priest thought that I could unleash the power of a top master, just like what happened in the underground palace.

Or maybe the Jinlian Taoist priest already knew that the God was in my body. The "mysterious master" in Chu Zhou City was indeed mysterious in the eyes of outsiders, but in the eyes of those who knew about it, they couldn't stand up to scrutiny.

For example, the Jinlian Taoist priest had been involved in the Sampo Case and knew that the Sealed Artifact was related to Buddhism. The Taoist priest was very familiar with me. Also, tens of thousands of people heard what I said in front of the Taoist Master of the Earth Faction.

Phew, fortunately, the Taoist priest was not a member of the Daibun government, or I would be in a lot of trouble … Xu Qi'an heaved a sigh.

"I really don't have any ideas, and there's nothing I can do."

First of all, the God Shu monk was in a deep sleep and couldn't be woken up. As for the Supervisor, the old man was very cunning, and Xu Qi'an couldn't control him at all.

Therefore, he really had no other choice but to use his trump card.

The Jinlian Taoist priest's eyes darkened, and he didn't speak for a long time.

After a while, he heaved a sigh and said, "Fine, it's all up to fate now."

Hearing this, everyone sighed.

"By the way …"

Suddenly, the Jinlian Taoist priest turned to look at Chu Yuanzhen. "I asked you to tell Luo Yuheng about this. Did you tell her?"

Chu Yuanzhen looked at him strangely, not understanding the Taoist priest's intention of mentioning this. He nodded and said, "Of course I did."

The Jinlian Taoist priest quickly asked, "What did she say?"

"The Grand Preceptor only said 'take care'." Chu Yuanzhen said calmly. The Grand Preceptor was a woman with a cold temperament, and it was impossible for her to exhort him too much.

The Jinlian Taoist priest frowned and asked eagerly, "Did, did she give you anything?"

Chu Yuanzhen was shocked and said, "Taoist priest, you can even guess this … The Grand Preceptor did give me a talisman."

"Quick, take it out …"

The Jinlian Taoist priest said quickly. Anyone could see his surprise and eagerness.

Chu Yuanzhen frowned and took out a yellow talisman with a red string. "This is just an ordinary talisman, it doesn't have any effect …"

In fact, Chu Zhuangyuan didn't want to take it out. It was a gift from the Grand Preceptor, and it was a token of goodwill from an 'elder'.

The Jinlian Taoist priest reached out and took the talisman. His eyes showed some relief. Then, he did something that no one in the room expected …

"Xu Qi 'an, take this amulet with you."

Chu Yuanzhen, "???"

Everyone looked at Xu Qi'an.

"Taoist priest, why are you giving it to me?" Xu Qi'an looked confused.

'Taoist priest, Chu Yuanzhen wants to eat me. Look at his eyes, look at his eyes …'

The Jinlian Taoist priest seemed to have become the calm and ruthless Old Dollar again. He said with a smile, "Don't ask, you will know tomorrow. Well, you will guard the last checkpoint. Guard outside the pool. "

The confused Xu Qi'an received the Jinlian Taoist priest's voice transmission, "At the critical moment, burn the talisman and ask her for help."

Ask for help? Ask Luo Yuheng? Don't be funny, Taoist priest. I am not familiar with my aunt. She gave me a talisman sword, which is already giving me face. How can I trouble her again and again …

You are making things difficult for me, Fat Tiger! Xu Qi'an wanted to wave his hand and say, "We are not friends yet, we are not friends yet."

But based on his understanding of Old Dollar, he knew that the Jinlian Taoist priest would not make such a decision if he was not sure.

"What does the Jinlian Taoist priest mean by this? Why did he give the talisman that the Imperial Advisor gave me to Xu Qi'an …" Chu Yuanzhen frowned, feeling offended.

However, he was a wise and calm person. He was good at analyzing (filling in the blanks), so he turned to think about Taoist Priest Golden Lotus's intentions and started brainstorming.

Li Miaozhen and Master Hengy Yuan were also confused, but they did not think too much about it.

They were not stupid, but they did not like to think too much.

Lina was the stupid one. She did not intend to use her brain from the beginning to the end. She cherished her brain cells very much.

At this time, Qiu Chanyi came in with several female disciples with hot dishes, and the aroma filled the room.

Hen soup, soy sauce pig trotters, steamed shrimp, steamed lamb, braised pork … The table was full.

"Gulp …"

Xu Qi'an and Lina swallowed at the same time.

"Young Master Xu, the kitchen prepared this for you. It was just waiting for you to wake up," Qiu Chanyi said in a crisp voice.

"Yes, yes, Junior Sister Chanyi made it herself." A female disciple covered her mouth and giggled.

Qiu Chanyi blushed.

Xu Qi'an hurriedly thanked her, then looked awkwardly at the Jinlian Taoist priest and the White Lotus Taoist nun. Their expressions were normal, and they did not seem displeased by their disciple's yearning for love.

"Then I shall not disturb you any longer." The Jinlian Taoist priest nodded and left first.

Chu Yuanzhen and the others left soon after.

Lina did not leave. Her feet were sealed, and she looked at Xu Qi'an with her blue eyes.

"Let's eat together."

Xu Qi'an said helplessly, then picked up the steamed bread and ate it with the braised pork and lamb.

"How does it taste, Prince Xu?" Qiu Chanyi asked expectantly.

"Junior Sister Chanyi's cooking is excellent."

Xu Qi 'an gave him a thumbs up and praised him. He then sighed and said, "It's just that your tea skills are a bit lacking."

"My tea skills are also very good," Qiu Chanyi argued pitifully.

Prince Xu had never even tasted the tea she brewed, and he was already so presumptuous … Her face fell. She felt that she had been underestimated by Prince Xu.

"I'm talking about green tea."

Xu Qi'an smiled. "I have a sister at home who is about the same age as you, but her tea skills are much better than yours. I'll introduce you to her when you have time, so you can learn from her. "

Susu was a seductive slut, and only green tea could restrain this kind of woman.

If Lingyue had been here, she would have burst into tears on the spot and 'aggrieved' outside for an entire night. It would be even better if she could catch a cold.

After that, Susu would be labeled as a 'devil'.

After eating and drinking to his heart's content, Xu Qi'an sent Qiu Chanyi and the girls away, then called out from the courtyard, "Senior Brother Yang!"

The white-clothed figure answered the summons, and with his back to him, said leisurely, "If the heavens didn't give birth to me, Yang Qianhuan …"

We're already so familiar with each other, there's no point in showing off … Xu Qi'an interrupted coldly. "Daibun is like a long night."

Yang Qianhuan choked, then asked coldly, "What is it?"

"I want to ask Senior Brother Yang to help me carve a soundproof formation, preferably one that can block out spies. I'm going to do something very secretive, "Xu Qi'an said bluntly.

"Heh, aren't you afraid that I'll eavesdrop?" Yang Qianhuan asked teasingly.

"Heh, I don't trust anyone but Senior Brother Yang. Senior Brother Yang is the most noble person in history, "Xu Qi'an said sincerely.

"You have good taste." Yang Qianhuan was very pleased.

… …

Inside the room, Xu Qi'an closed the door and window, opened the perfume bag, and released Chou Qian's soul again.

A chilly wind blew, and the temperature in the room dropped.

Chou Qian floated in the air like a foolish son of a landlord.

"What's your name?" Xu Qi'an asked tentatively.

"Ji Qian."

Chou Qian answered woodenly.

Xu Qi'an pondered for a moment, then asked, "Who are you?"

"Daibun Royalty."

Chou Qian's voice did not rise or fall, but it set off a tsunami in Xu Qi 'an's mind, causing a landslide effect.

He's Daibun Royalty?! No wonder his surname is Ji. No, Daibun Royalty has such a person?

All kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind. Xu Qi'an tried to calm himself down and asked, "Which branch are you from?"

The reason why he asked this was because he was sure that there was no such person in the imperial family of the capital. The Great Feng Empire had lasted for six hundred years and had many branches. This Ji Qian was either a branch or an illegitimate son of someone.

That was why he asked which branch he was from.

Chou Qian murmured, "The legitimate branch from five hundred years ago."

Xu Qi 'an almost couldn't control his expression, and his arms trembled violently.

The legitimate branch from five hundred years ago. In other words, he was the descendant of the previous emperor who was killed by Emperor Wu Zong? Did the previous emperor's bloodline still exist? Didn't they say that the emperor's bloodline died in the hands of treacherous officials …

Uh, that part of history must have been tampered with. History books can't be trusted. But Emperor Wu Zong was a great ruler. He must know to eliminate the root of the problem.

"What is your position in the clan?"

"I am my father's legitimate son."

"Who is your father?"

"His name is Ji Xiao. He will become the ruler of the nine prefectures and replace the Yuanjing Emperor …"

The branch from five hundred years ago is back for revenge? I killed a 'Crown Prince' … Xu Qi'an was stunned for a long time. He tried hard to digest this earth-shattering information.

Then, he asked, "What's up with the luck on my body?"

He decided not to ask about the Ji Clan's information for now and go straight to the core of the problem.

"…" Chou Qian was silent.

"I'm too excited …" Xu Qi'an took a deep breath. "What's up with the luck on Xu Qi'an's body?"

"The luck on his body belongs to that lord. It's the support of our great hegemony. It's the foundation to fight against the Supervisor. It's the most important step in our plan to conquer the Central Plains."

When he said this, Chou Qian's expressionless face showed a rare liveliness.

This matter seemed to be imprinted in the depths of his soul.

"Who is that lord?" Xu Qi'an's lips trembled.

He almost blurted out the next question. "Why does he want to store his luck on me?"

At this moment, Chou Qian's expression was obviously twisted and conflicted.

…

The night was quiet, and the chirping of insects could be heard.

On the hillside outside the dense forest, a few jackals and wolves were gnawing on the corpses. They howled to intimidate their companions.

A pair of feet wearing white boots descended from the sky and landed lightly on the edge of Chou Qian's headless corpse.

It was a person as white as snow. His white clothes and shoes formed a sharp contrast with his black hair. His face was shrouded in layers of mist, as if he didn't belong to this world.

His existence was infinitely reduced. He didn't try to hide his movements, but the surrounding jackals and wolves were busy gnawing on the corpses. They were supposed to be extremely sensitive, but they didn't notice the appearance of the white-clothed figure.

The white-clothed figure lowered his head and glanced at the horrifying corpse. He expressionlessly moved his gaze away and looked in the direction of the Yue Clan Villa.

He stared for a long time and chuckled.
