Jiang Zhiwei frowned and said, "We can't agree to this on his behalf."
Sergeant Daoist laughed and said, "Don't worry, the Daoist only asked you to pass on the message. It's up to Mr. Su whether you agree or not. Anyway, the reinforcements from Gumgwang-Hole will only arrive in two days. There's still plenty of time."
"He really knows a lot …" Jiang Zhiwei and the others thought to themselves. Tian Kuo, in particular, realized in his shock that it was not the old Taoist's words that had indirectly reminded him. It was the old Taoist who had deliberately "told" him!
"What does he want to do?"
While the three of them were puzzled, Sergeant Daoist continued, "The Daoist wants Mr. Su to help is very simple. It's no trouble at all. If you bring this to him, I believe he'll agree after seeing it."
As he said this, a silk bag suddenly appeared in Tian Kuo's hand. It seemed to appear out of thin air. It was light and weightless, but the thing inside was quite strange. It could not be sensed by one's spirit.
Seeing that Sergeant Daoist's request was not too much, Jiang Zhiwei and Ruan Yushu took a look at the silk bag and agreed. Of course, this matter would be handled by Tian Kuo. In the current situation, it was not difficult for them to sneak out, but under the watchful eyes of a grandmaster, there was no way they could come back.
…
In a secluded study in the Tian Mansion.
While the nobles in Shangying were in danger and the important people tried to stay with the Peerless Master Pros, Mengqi, Qi Zhengyan, and Zhao Heng were resting comfortably in the Court of Minister of Justice.
With the help of Tian Kuo, they managed to sneak into Tian Mansion without anyone noticing.
Tian Kuo did not dare to delay for too long lest her father became suspicious. She took the opportunity to pass by while she was on duty to return home and quickly told him what had happened. When she was done, she handed the brocade pouch to Mengqi.
"Sir Daoist … I can't use my spiritual sense …" Mengqi frowned, vaguely feeling a sense of familiarity. He guessed the identity and purpose of Sir Daoist. Previously, Zhao Heng had already mentioned the matter of Tian Kuo's divination, but the three of them had discussed it, but they could not confirm that there was something wrong with Sir Daoist. Now that he had taken the initiative to jump out, it made them even more vigilant.
Under the gaze of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, Mengqi opened the pouch.
At this moment, he suddenly understood what was inside! Why did it feel so familiar?
The contents of the pouch slid out and landed in Mengqi's palm. It was the size of a palm and had a black base. Golden characters were engraved on it.
"Yuxu's disciple!"
As expected!
He also had an waist token like this. There was nothing unusual about it except that it could block spiritual sense!
However, given by the old Taoist, the meaning was completely different. He had obtained the impartation from the Immortals, and his relationship with the Jade Virtual Palace was worlds apart. On the other hand, the old Taoist could very well be the direct disciple of the Jade Virtual Palace!
Was he the so-called remnant of Yuxu?
Did he help him because he recognized the Eight Nine Mysteries?
"Yuxu's disciple?" Zhao Heng, Qi Zhengyan, and Tian Kuo were speechless at the same time. As the leader of the Three Pristines and the first of the Nine Primogenitors of Taoism, Heavenly Primogenitor was famous both in the world of Mengqi and the Apotheosized World. Especially here, where only five hundred years had passed since the Apotheosized War, all kinds of legends were not just legends. It was inevitable that they were surprised to see a real disciple of Yuxu's.
Tian Kuo let out a long sigh. "I didn't expect Yuxu's lineage to have an heir …"
Zhao Heng and Qi Zhengyan had heard Mengqi mentioning the remnant of Yuxu. They looked at each other and Mengqi pretended to be nonchalant and asked, "Is there no other heir of Yuxu's lineage?"
"After the Apotheosized War, Yuxu's lineage suffered a great loss. Except for the royal family, only a few vassal states were related to them. Later, the twelve Golden Immortals left the world. Even Yun Zhongzi, who was not among them, disappeared and became more and more declining."
"Today, the Qi Kingdom, which once had an overlord, has declined so much that it could not be ranked as a big country. It is barely holding on to the name of Yuxu's lineage. Apart from that, it is just a branch of the branch. Some countries and Taoism and Buddhism even target and secretly suppress it." As the son of a great aristocrat, Tian Kuo had some understanding of such things. She was just surprised that there were still descendants of Yuxu's lineage other than the Qi Kingdom!
This kind of waist token was difficult to imitate. Without the skills of Yuxu's lineage, one could not even show its uniqueness!
"So it is only in some countries and spheres of influence that the descendants of Yuxu are remnants …" Mengqi quietly heaved a sigh of relief. Playing with the waist token, he vaguely felt that it had an indescribable harmony with his own skills, which was different from the waist token he got from the seal.
"There is a difference between two waist tokens?" Mengqi did not want to examine it for the time being. He pondered for a while and said,
"Please inform that senior tomorrow that I agree to his request."
Just the fact that it was related to Yuxu Palace was enough to make him agree, not to mention that he could save so many followers of the School of Mo!
…
The next day, Tian Kuo informed Sergeant Daoist, Jiang Zhiwei, and Ruan Yushu of Mengqi's reply.
Sergeant Daoist smiled and said, "What do you think? What Daoist said is true, right? "
After joking, he put on a serious face and said, "Daoist can't act directly due to some restrictions, but he can help you hide from the grandmasters outside. Are you confident that you can defeat the guards?"
"Some restrictions?" Jiang Zhiwei repeated the doubts in her heart. She felt that the Apotheosized World was even more mysterious and strange.
Tian Kuo quickly informed them of the relevant situation. "The fifth and sixth floor are currently guarded by an Exterior master. They are not Peerless Master, but around the Second or Three-fold Heaven. There are also many prison guards of Eight or Nine Apertures scattered on the sixth floor."
Jiang Zhiwei thought for a while and glanced at Ruan Yushu. After confirming her state, she said,
"No problem!"
Even if a powerful secret treasure appeared, they would have a way to deal with it. As for the others, they could use the sword in their hands to cut their way out!
Sergeant Daoist did not say anything more. He stepped down with his right foot, and the whole prison rippled slightly. In an instant, it became quiet as if it was suddenly isolated from the world!
Jiang Zhiwei took out the hidden Space Ring and held the Sword of the Sun-Penetrating Rainbow. With a slight force, the fine steel chains on her hands and feet broke.
With a flash of sword light, the fine steel chains on Ruan Yushu's body fell to the ground and the cell door opened.
The rest of the prisoners were dumbfounded. They watched as Jiang Zhiwei knocked out Tian Kuo and threw her to a corner.
"Before we get out, don't act rashly. If you break the rules, you will suffer the consequences!"
Without a sound or a sword, the fine steel chains on the ground turned into powder. They were not pinched, but cut!
The terrible sword spirit went straight into the hearts of the prisoners, making them tremble with fear and tremble in their limbs.
Jiang Zhiwei strode forward and went straight to the door of the second floor. She waved the sword in her hand and the heavy iron door opened.
The sword light flashed, and Jiang Zhiwei did not stop. One by one, the jailers were hit in their vital acupoints and passed out. They could not resist at all.
She and Ruan Yushu had a smooth journey and quickly rushed to the entrance of the fifth floor.
The bright and clean sword light was like a rainbow, cutting the iron door covered with patterns. Without the support of the formation, it broke easily.
The expert of the Exterior inside was shocked. He held the long sword in his right hand and secretly held the secret treasure in his left.
At this moment, Ruan Yushu had already played the Phoenix-perching Zither. A clear and loud chirp came from the Nine Heavens. Behind her, a noble and powerful shadow of the phoenix appeared, carrying the Feathers of Five Virtues. It spiraled up and fiercely pounced on the Vital Spirit of the expert of the Exterior!
The expert of the Exterior was stunned. Under the Anatta Sword, losing focus meant losing one's life!
The sword light was bright and clean, with no self and no shape. The overbearing sword spirit flashed and the expert of the Exterior fell to the ground. There was a light red dot between his eyebrows. He looked fine on the outside, but his insides were destroyed by the Sword Qi.
Jiang Zhiwei did not stop to pick up the secret treasures and storage pouches. She strode to the entrance of the sixth floor. The expert of the Exterior who was guarding inside had sensed the movement outside and had already rushed to the core secret chamber of the formation!
The two met at the entrance of the sixth floor. Jiang Zhiwei's sword art was so strict that many Nine Apertures of School of Mo could not see the shadow of the sword. They could only sense the sword light after a delay!
The expert of the Exterior was completely suppressed. He could only feel that his opponent's sword was getting faster and faster. It was like an endless torrential wave, and the pressure on him increased exponentially.
The formation stones were broken into countless small pieces. Jiang Zhiwei did not use her Dharmakaya killer moves, but she used all her knowledge to suppress the expert of the Exterior so that he could not use his secret treasures.
Ruan Yushu was about to help when he suddenly realized that one of the followers of the School of Mo had escaped from the prison and was pouncing on him.
There was actually a spy in hiding!
She was calm and unflustered. She plucked the zither again and the shadow of the phoenix appeared again. Its clear and melodious cry resounded through the Nine Heavens.
The Vital Spirit of the spy trembled and was slightly sluggish. The shadow of the phoenix flew into his ear.
Soon after, the fire in his heart ignited and burned himself to ashes!
Clang!
The sound of Precious Weapons colliding continued. The expert of the Exterior was sweating and had subconsciously defended himself. If it was not for Jiang Zhiwei's restraint to prevent the power from affecting the followers of the School of Mo in the prison, it would have been even more difficult for him.
Just as he was about to raise his long saber to parry, he suddenly realized that there was no sword light coming at him!
Jiang Zhiwei understood his situation and deliberately slowed down, which created an opportunity for him!
When the sword arrived, everything suddenly slowed down. The expert of the Exterior who had already parried missed his attack was even slower. He could only watch as the long sword swept past and pierced between his eyebrows!
Wiping away the blood and sheathing the sword, Jiang Zhiwei felt refreshed and said to Ruan Yushu, "Identify them."
Ruan Yushu identified them one by one and caught two spies. They were both killed by Jiang Zhiwei.
When the process was over, Jiang Zhiwei looked at the Daoist and sincerely asked, "Senior, how can we let them sneak out from under the grandmaster's nose?"
In fact, she already had an idea. Because Tian Kuo had brought in the Map of Mountains and Rivers that could still be used once, it would not attract attention if two or three of them went out.
But now, she wanted to see the strength of the Daoist.
The Daoist laughed and said, "Let's see what the Daoist can do."
He waved his sleeve and it quickly grew bigger. It was dark and chaotic inside as if it had become a world of its own.
A strange wind blew and a suction force came. One by one, the identified followers of the School of Mo flew into the sleeve of the Daoist!
"Sleeve Cosmos?" Jiang Zhiwei and Ruan Yushu blurted out.
This was a famous Heavenly Knowing in primitive times, but it had been lost in the era of the Nine Primogenitors of Taoism!
The Daoist folded up his sleeve and snorted, "The Daoist obtained it by chance. I don't know what it is called without seeing its name."
He said as he walked out and helped Tian Kuo settle down so that he would not be killed by other escaped prisoners. Then, the three of them disguised themselves as prison guards and left.
…
Outside the city, Mengqi cupped his hands to thank the Daoist. Jiang Zhiwei and the others deliberately avoided him to arrange the future affairs of the followers of the School of Mo.
"We are all followers of Yuxu. There is no need to thank me." The Daoist waved his hand carelessly. "Let the exposed followers of the School of Mo go as far away as possible. Those who have not been exposed should not take any action for now. Otherwise, things will get out of hand when the 'King Of Chu' comes."
"The King Of Chu? This has something to do with Chu? "Mengqi asked in surprise. Not only Gumgwang-Hole?
Logically speaking, the King Of Chu should not interfere in this matter since he had gained a lot of benefits.
"Hehe, this King Of Chu is not the King Of Chu you know. He is the Chu Zhuang who is hiding in Gumgwang-Hole." The Daoist shook his head and laughed.
"Prince Chu Zhuang? One of the Six Hegemons? He is still alive? "Mengqi was shocked.
The Daoist curled his lips. "Of course he is alive and well. Not only him, but Hanwu, Tang Wen, Ming Lie and Qin Mu are also alive. This time, it was Chu Zhuang who gave the direct order to see you. If you are alive, I want to see your corpse."
"I have no quarrel with Prince Chu Zhuang. Why would I be targeted by him?" Mengqi was puzzled.
There were indeed many Dharmakayas in the Apotheosized World, but he did not know why they had to hide …
The Daoist laughed. "After the world was broken, there was something strange. We searched everywhere to find out the reason. A few years ago, the Yuxu Palace reappeared. Everyone fought for it. Only Chu Zhuang got an item from it."
Yuxu Palace? Mengqi's eyes widened and his breathing became heavy.
The Yuxu Palace still exists?
What did Prince Chu Zhuang get from it?
"The Daoist covets this item and often lingers in Chu, Tang and Chen. A few days ago, the item suddenly shone brightly. The Daoist calculated and it should be you. I think Chu Zhuang can also see the key. That's why he gave the order to see you, if you are alive, and if you are dead, I want to see your corpse. If not for the restriction, he would have come to 'find' you himself." The Daoist did not hide his "coveting" at all.
No wonder Gumgwang-Hole's attitude changed so much! Mengqi was about to ask when he suddenly frowned. This Daoist always used the same title as "we". What was his background?
"May I know your name, senior?" Meng Qi changed the subject.
The Daoist laughed. "The Daoist's surname is Jiang, of the Lu family. My first name is Xiaobai."
Lu Xiaobai, Qi Xiaobai?
Duke Huan Of Qi!
He really is a genuine disciple of Yuxu! Mengqi was shocked.
