Senior Immortal Poxu was very glad that he was in the state of inner demon.
Otherwise, the trouble would be really big.
In the state of inner demon, although his fighting ability would be reduced a lot, his mind would be much clearer, so he would not do stupid things.
What stupid things?
For example, when he saw the target, he would rush to do whatever he wanted, which was a big stupid thing.
Xia Xiaohe assigned him a task to find a girl named Feng Ling, and then use the demon-breaking needle to unlock her seal and release the Nine-Tailed Fox. Now Feng Ling had been found, not far from him. She was exactly the same as the person in the portrait, especially the valiant and formidable-looking spirit between her eyebrows, which was absolutely not fake.
But the next question was the key. How could he use the demon-breaking needle to unlock her seal?
The worst choice was to go hard … Although with the strength of Senior Immortal Poxu, he could set off a natural disaster in any place in Nine Regions and kill thousands of people. However, this was the foot of Spirit Sword Mountain, one of the five extremes of Nine Regions. More importantly, according to Xia Xiaohe, his treasured collection was the people from Lingjian School, and the alien that made Xia Xiaohe feel very difficult was also a person from Lingjian School. Thus, in Poxu's view, Spirit Sword Mountain was undoubtedly the most dangerous place in Nine Regions. Once he made his move, there would be no good ending.
So what should he do? Poxu thought about it and decided to take it one step at a time. He had already seen the person, so the rest was to slowly grind it down. Xia Xiaohe didn't set a time limit for the task, so why should he be in such a hurry? Moreover, he was now clear-headed, so he was not afraid of any changes if he delayed for a long time.
Thus, he confidently strode into the inn and shouted with a smile, "Give me one of my signature dishes!"
Feng Ling, who was inspecting in the lobby, glanced at him and then ignored him. She was no longer the lonely person who ordered, cooked, and paid for everything. As the boss, she didn't need to do anything herself. Even beating up bad customers who deliberately found fault with the taste of the food was out of interest. Otherwise, the Ru Family Inn had plenty of hired thugs. Why would she need to personally show off her strength in the lobby?
And the scholar who shouted in the lobby didn't seem to be anything special. He was just an ordinary tourist. Spirit Sword Mountain could welcome thousands of such tourists in a day … However, on the other hand, Feng Ling's heart palpitated faintly.
It was a throb of fear.
Windling trusted her instincts, but she also trusted her judgment. This contradiction made her frown, but she didn't think too much about it.
This was the foot of Spirit Sword Mountain, what was there to worry about?
Wind Chimes spent the next five days in this conflicted state of mind.
These five days passed by uneventfully. The inn was as busy as ever, and the guest rooms were as full as ever. Under this situation where the supply could not meet the demand, the Ru Family Inn's room prices were notoriously high … Thus, the Lady Boss naturally noticed a certain scholar who stayed in the upper room for five days.
And the scholar gradually felt that his patience was about to run out. He had stayed here for five days, and it could be said that he had been with Windchime day and night. However, even after five days, he could not find any flaws in Windchime and could not find a chance to attack.
Because this lady boss was so homebody that it made people's hair stand on end! She stayed in the inn every day and never took a step out. The purchasing of the resources in the inn was all handed over to her subordinates. She didn't go out to check at all. During this period, the Lady Boss did meet some friends, but they always came to look for her. She never went out.
This situation made it impossible to make a move. As long as Windchime didn't leave Spirit Sword Mountain, then once Poxu made his move, it would inevitably cause a great backlash. In fact, he was not afraid of backlash, but he was more afraid of the furious Xia Xiaohe.
After thinking about it, Poxu decided not to wait and took the initiative to attack.
The method of attack was also very simple. Since Windchime refused to leave Spirit Sword Mountain, then he would find a way to make her leave. Senior Immortal Poxu had the Void Immortal Technique, so it was easy for him to deceive someone to go somewhere.
Half a day later, Windchime saw an unexpected visitor in her room.
When she saw that person, the Lady Boss, who had always been cool and straightforward, showed an indescribable complex look.
"What do you want from me? I don't want to see you. "
As she spoke, she involuntarily took half a step forward.

In the Eastern Border Region, five hundred miles south of the Red Sea, there was a small town. In a tea shop in the town, Bai Ze and Xuan Mo were facing a pot of coarse tea with heavy expressions.
"Are we … really going to do it?" Bai Ze held the small teacup in his hand and asked softly.
Xuan Mo was silent and could not give an answer.
"Xia Xiaohe's argument is indeed reasonable. The power of the Immortal World is too strong, which is not something that the Nine Regions can match. Instead of fighting to the death, it's better to give our own people a little living space. " Bai Ze said softly, "But, such a simple truth, if we understand it, don't other people understand it? Why … "
Xuan Mo interrupted somewhat irritably, "Well, what's the use of saying that now? I don't care what you like to deny, but do you and I have a way back? "
"No?" Bai Ze smiled gently.
Xuan Mo was suddenly stunned and said, "Bai Ze, do you want to?"
Bai Ze said, "Think about it carefully. If we want to go back, it's now. First of all, Xia Xiaohe is far away in the Western Continent, and we are free. Although we have surrendered to Xia Xiaohe, we have not really done anything to hurt the Nine Regions. On the contrary, by following her, we have learned a lot of important information, such as Senior Immortal Poxu, Immortal King Xia Yu, and that they are about to make a move against Feng Ling and Aya — which is obviously aimed at Wang Lu. The value of this information is enough to make up for the detours we have taken before. Moreover, from another perspective, if our surrender is just a disguise, a false appearance to deceive information … Then we won't even have a stain on us. "
Bai Ze said it lightly, even with some confidence, but Xuan Mo's hand was slightly trembling.
"Bai Ze, you should know that Xia Xiaohe must have heard those words just now …"
"So what? Can she come back in time? And do you think that even if we don't say anything and behave meekly and obediently, she will trust us? " Bai Ze shook his head with a chuckle and said, "To judge whether a person is trustworthy or not, it depends on what he does, not what he says. If we really instigate other companions to rebel and destroy the Red Sea Underwater Workshop, then there will be no place for us in Nine Regions, and it would be impossible for us not to surrender. At that time, even if we have more ideas and arguments, she won't mind. And now, before it's done, no matter what we say, she won't trust us. So … If you want to say it, just say it. Why care so much? The key is, what are you going to do? "
Hearing Bai Ze's words, Xuan Mo's heart calmed down a little, and the balance of the two sides began to tilt towards one side.
However, then, Bai Ze said something else, which made Xuan Mo's heart restless again.
"I want to stay."
"What did you say?"
Bai Ze repeated indifferently, "I want to stay, stay on Xia Xiaohe's side."
Xuan Mo shook his head in disbelief and said, "… Why?"
"You can understand it as … a good bird chooses a tree to nest in. After all, Xia Xiaohe is the stronger side."
"I don't believe it."
This was not the Bai Ze she knew. Although the Bai Ze in her impression was stupid and would do wrong things, he would never break his back. Xia Xiaohe and the Fallen Immortals were indeed powerful, but under the leadership of Sun Buping sixteen thousand years ago, they had a fierce fight with the upper realm with the awareness of certain death, and even experienced a resurrection. They were really not afraid of dying again. Previously, they submitted to Xia Xiaohe because her attitude towards Nine Regions was still friendly, and they hoped that they could open a door for her.
However, in the past five years, they had gradually given up the plan to change Xia Xiaohe. That woman would not be shaken by anyone, and her friendliness towards Nine Regions had gradually been stripped away, revealing a colder nature. Both Bai Ze and Xuan Mo were disappointed with her. Therefore, when Bai Ze proposed to go back, Xuan Mo didn't think much of it. What was surprising was that even though he proposed to go back, he still wanted to go down the dark road.
Why?
"Because I can see that you don't want to stay."
"Huh?"
Bai Ze said, "Of the two of us, one is enough to go back. You know what I know, so it doesn't make sense for one more person to go back. Moreover, as I said earlier, Xia Xiaohe is the stronger side. The power of the Immortal World is too strong. No matter how hard we try, we can't rule out the possibility of total annihilation. At that time, we need someone to continue the fire for us. "
"Even if it's …"
"Even if it's to be condemned by thousands of people and go down in history … Don't look at me like that. Didn't I play the same role when I followed the boss? I know you're all scolding me, but this is my job. "
Seeing Bai Ze like this, Xuan Mo suddenly felt his eyes turn sour.
That's right. At that time, Bai Ze did play the role of being condemned by thousands of people, and he did have no regrets.
Xuan Mo really regretted it. He regretted that he couldn't see the other side of Bai Ze. Why did he always hate him for no reason? Why did he play pranks on him when people weren't paying attention? Why did he secretly feel proud when he was angry?
"Bai Ze, I …"
Bai Ze smiled and said, "Well, don't look like you're going to die. I believe that we will meet again one day, and I hope to see your smiling face at that time."
With that, his smile suddenly disappeared. "Well, while Xia Xiaohe is in the Western Continent, let's hurry up! I will go to the Red Sea and make a scene. And you, don't forget your mission! "
With that, Bai Ze turned into a rainbow light and flew toward the Red Sea in the north. Xuan Mo watched him leave and was silent for a long time. She picked up the teacup, rinsed her mouth with the bitter and cold coarse tea, and then stood up.
The moment she stood up, she suddenly felt the coldness penetrating her bones.
At the door of the tea shop, Xia Xiaohe was looking at her with interest.
"Why don't you go? Don't you know the way? Where do you want to go? I'll take you there. "
