After the immortal disappeared

"The case of the elixir has spread throughout the God Realm. You cannot escape this crime."

"I don't want to escape, I just want to avoid death." Imperial Master Qingyang sighed, "You can still do this, right?"

True Lord Tongming remained silent.

Imperial Master Qingyang knew that it was also planning. These gods are aloof, as if they don't eat the fireworks of the world, but in fact they are as full of calculations as humans, haha.

She was also prepared. She stood up, took out seven short tubes from her arms, and waved them twice in front of the smoke:

"This is a thank you gift."

"Huh?" Zhenjun Tongming was rarely so surprised, "Xinglongzhu? Where did you get so many?"

That pipe, that color, that shape... what Imperial Master Qingyang showed was the seven torture dragon pillars!

She turned the torture dragon pillars one by one to show the smoke: "You can see clearly, each one is filled with nightmare energy."

Of course Lord Tongming could see the red substance churning inside the Dragon Punishment Pillar.

Each punishment dragon pillar can store the nightmare energy of 200,000 newly deceased people, so these seven punishment dragon pillars represent 1.4 million lost lives!

"You don't need to worry about it. It's not easy to come by anyway." Imperial Master Qingyang sighed slightly, "Isn't this amount of nightmare energy enough to support a divine pregnancy?"

She knocked on the Dragon Punishment Pillar casually: "If there was no such thing and all relied on natural conception, you gods would not be able to give birth to a baby for hundreds of thousands of years."

Tongming Zhenjun did not refute, that is, he acquiesced.

If anyone hears this, they will be shocked:

The nightmare energy condensed by 1.4 million living people in the world is only enough for the gods to give birth to a baby!

The ratio of this life is 1.4 million to one.

Needless to say how precious nightmare energy is to the gods. Tongming Zhenjun thought for a moment: "I can try. It's difficult to get you off the hook, but there's a lot of hope in keeping you alive."

The corners of Qingyang's mouth curved slightly, but True Lord Tongming continued: "Even if I can intercede for you, you still have to explain the source of the divine blood. When I asked you a few days ago, you said you wanted to find a way; now, the crisis is imminent, do you think Is it done?"

Imperial Master Qingyang hummed: "There is a way."

"explain!"

"In the entire Lingxu City, I am not the only one who has divine blood."

True Lord Tongming exclaimed: "Besides Tiangong, who else is there?"

As far as he knew, even in the ghost market and underground transactions in Lingxu City, divine blood never appeared.

"Dong Rui."

"...Who?" The name was unfamiliar and it had never heard of it before.

"Do you still remember that my abandoned disciple Xi Yunhe used a monster to hunt for pearls and even swallowed Zhongsun Mou in public?" Imperial Master Qingyang walked to the table and took a few sips of hot tea. "That monster is called Snail Toad. The back shell is the 'Snail House', a treasure of the Qing Palace more than ten years ago, and the monster itself looks like a ghost toad, like a snail, an unnatural thing. I have checked many clues, it is a man-made demon puppet, and the creator is probably It’s the demon puppet master Dong Rui!”

Tongming Zhenjun is waiting for her next step. This woman has always been very methodical in doing things.

"This demon puppet master was wanted by Bega many years ago, but was later pardoned. Guess who was the person who obtained the pardon for him?"

True Lord Tongming doesn’t care.

"It's Imperial Master Shuangye!" Imperial Master Qingyang couldn't help but sneer, "So Dong Rui should be a subordinate of Imperial Master Shuangye."

Imperial Master Shuangye arranged every detail in the case of the elixir of life, from Xi Yunhe to Dong Rui, all of which were aimed at her, but he himself stayed out of the matter.

No matter how noisy the elixir case is, on the surface it has nothing to do with him.

True Lord Tongming became a little impatient: "You mentioned Dong Rui, what does this have to do with divine blood?"

"He has divine blood in his hands."

"Ah?" Zhenjun Tongming asked curiously, "How did it come about?"

"I don't know," Qingyang Imperial Master said, "But I have studied the demon puppets he created before. From ordinary monsters to demon puppets, only divine blood can provide such a powerful stimulus."

She said word for word: "If you catch him, you will also catch the source of the divine blood."

True Lord Tongming snorted: "You mean the Imperial Master Shuangye?"

If Dong Rui is really a subordinate of Imperial Master Shuangye, then Imperial Master Shuangye is the source of divine blood!

This woman is so ruthless, even in a desperate situation, she would not forget to drag her mortal enemy into the water with her!

The more it thought about it, the better it got, and it couldn't help but laugh: "I knew you wouldn't just admit defeat! But I didn't expect that you would use your strength here."

Imperial Master Qingyang said calmly: "If I am entangled in the authenticity of Kong Jiaxiang and the authenticity of the evidence in the Eternal Medicine Case, then I am playing into Shuang Ye's hands."

Imperial Master Shuangye must have made extremely thorough arrangements in these aspects, just waiting for her to fall into the trap.

She could only find another way.

Lord Tongming was very happy: "Okay, I will try my best to save your life. The rest is all up to you."

If Qingyang Imperial Master can prove that the source of the divine blood is Dong Rui and Shuangye Imperial Master, Tongming Zhenjun will have nothing to do with the immortal medicine case.

Of course he's happy to see it work.

Qingyang Imperial Master put away the five punishment dragon pillars: "These two are prepayments, and the rest will be given after I successfully save my life."

True Lord Tongming snorted, but had no objection.

This time the smoke finally dissipated and the god's thoughts left.

Imperial Master Qingyang took a deep breath, opened the window and looked at the sky.

It would be dark for another hour.

She ate some more tangerines, peeled two red and soft persimmons, and even ate a few pieces of sweet-scented osmanthus gummy. Then she clapped her hands and lay down on the soft couch, closing her eyes and resting.

Life or death will be known after nightfall.

…

Only half an hour later, Imperial Master Qingyang heard movement outside Ganquan Hall.

Her cultivation was so profound that the noisy footsteps and voices could not be hidden from her ears.

Besides the emperor, who else could swagger across the palace here?

The fact that it came back early shows that it attaches great importance to this matter.

Imperial Master Qingyang sat up immediately and secretly summoned his true power.

In just three to five breaths, her eye sockets were sunken, the corners of her eyes were covered with fine lines, and her face became haggard.

The original pampering, grace and luxury were immediately reduced by five points.

As soon as she opened the door and went out, a huge head poked out from outside the palace wall, looking down at her condescendingly.

The door is for people to use, not for it to use.

The afterglow of the setting sun was also blocked by it, and large shadows fell above. Imperial Master Qingyang immediately knelt down and said loudly: "I have seen the emperor!"

The emperor did not greet her and asked directly: "The gods accuse you of secretly refining and selling the elixir. Is this true?"

Anger was boiling in its eyes, and the old osmanthus plant next to Qingyang Imperial Master could not bear the pressure, and it shuddered, falling countless petals.

The air was heavy as if it had substance.

Imperial Master Qingyang lowered his head and took a deep breath: "Yes... I am confused."

She answered so calmly that the emperor couldn't answer the question for a moment. He put his front paws on the wall tiles and made a loud crack, breaking countless tiles like grabbing tofu.

"Why!" Its sonorous voice was full of regret, "You have been a national teacher for 1670 years, and we, father and son, have treated you harshly?"

Imperial Master Qingyang bowed his head: "The two emperors treated their ministers with as much kindness as a mountain."

"Then you are short of money or power, how dare you violate the taboos of the gods!"

Imperial Master Qingyang said calmly: "When you are in court, you cannot help yourself." She put her head on the ground, "Qingyang made a big mistake and is willing to be punished."

The emperor was silent, and his huffing and puffing sounds were like thunder rolling past.

Officialdom, haha.

Both father and son have been immersed in it for many years. They knew that this was an ecological chain, and everyone in it was tightly bound.

What you don’t want to say or what you don’t want to do is up to you.

The officialdom was ups and downs, and even Qingyang Imperial Master could not get ashore.

After a while, it said: "Since you confessed your crime, why did you escape from the Qing Palace and come to Ganquan Palace?"

Qingyang Guoshi said: "I want to have a deep talk with the emperor for the last time. If Bai Ziqi is arrested and taken to the Heavenly Palace, where will there be such a chance?" If she becomes a prisoner of the Heavenly Palace, her meetings with anyone will be monitored.

The emperor exhaled heavily: "What do you want to say?"

"Privately refining the elixir is an old minister's delusion, and there is no excuse for it." Qingyang Imperial Master said softly, "But if I leave the Qing Palace, and the war on the eastern front is tense now, who will control the deployment of Yuanli?"

"According to the rules, the most qualified person is Shuangye Guoshi."

"I'm afraid he will be too aggressive in the war." Qingyang Imperial Master said, "Shuangye Imperial Master...is the god behind him!"

"Isn't this the trouble you're causing for me?" The Emperor was displeased, "If it weren't for things like yours, how could he be allowed to interfere in the Eastern Front War?"

With a sweep of its tail and a crackling sound, a large area of ​​carefully pruned flowers and plants was destroyed.

Qingyang Imperial Master did not dare to contradict, and after a while he said: "Can the Emperor wait until the end of the Eastern War before relinquishing the position of our Imperial Master?"

The emperor laughed angrily: "You want to be punished and make meritorious deeds? You still have a beautiful idea. It is impossible for Tiangong to agree!"

"The battlefield on the Eastern Front has turned a corner. Mou Guo intends to negotiate. This battle will end in more than a month at most." Qingyang Imperial Master said quietly, "The gods have a long lifespan, but they are not willing to wait even this little time? "

"It's not just the gods who don't want to wait. The common people want results, and the demon kingdom also wants results! The king of Chiyan has sent four letters, and even King Baoshu has urged him twice. The other vassals will not mention it, and they are all waiting for the case to be concluded. What do you think? , can they wait?”

Imperial Master Qingyang whispered: "If I go to jail, the balance between the four palaces will be broken, and it will be even more difficult for you, Emperor."

The emperor said coldly: "Now, do you feel sorry for me?"

"After I leave, Qing Palace should have a new owner." Qingyang Imperial Master said, "Do you have any clues?"

"I have my own opinion." The emperor exhaled, and a whirlwind seemed to blow in the yard. "I rushed back to Tianxin Island after receiving the news. The guards of Tiangong are still waiting outside. You..."

He hesitated: "Do you have the account list in your hand?"

Here we go, here comes the topic. Imperial Master Qingyang looked slightly confused: "Are you asking?"

"Stop pretending to be confused!" The emperor glared at her, "Don't you know? I'm asking about the list of people who privately purchased the elixir! According to your temperament, you must have recorded it!"

Imperial Master Qingyang couldn't help but smile: "It's been almost two hundred years, and the emperor still understands me best."

She and the emperor in front of her grew up together. The relationship is as good as Yao Xingning and Prince Huan.

"I have written down every medicine purchaser." She took out an account book from the storage ring and held it in her arms. "There are seventy-five stores in total, and medicines were purchased 327 times."
