Mortal Bones

Originally, Sister Lingyue could take action, let alone some ordinary demon cultivators. Even if Li Yezhu came in person, Xu Taiping was not afraid.

But now that he has eight Demon Emperor soul seals pressing down on him, the fairy peach born from the earth fruit can only be consumed by the body when Fairy Soul Moon takes action. The backlash of suppressing the soul seals has to be the Hidden Immortal Brew.

But the problem is, he doesn't have much left of the Hidden Immortal Brew.

"I just calculated that the immortal brew you have left is only enough to suppress the soul seal for half a stick of incense."

"But if you can use the power of Lian Tong to deduce part of the arrangements of the demonic cultivators outside, and with the help of your current physical body, half a stick of incense is enough to kill those demonic cultivators."

Fairy Lingyue sent a message to Xu Taiping and described her plan.

Hearing the word "kill all" from Fairy Lingyue's mouth, Xu Taiping's whole body felt inexplicably chilly.

I just felt that the killing intent in these two words was heavier than those of the demon generals I faced directly.

"But before that, we have to use the corpse of the yellow dog demon species to exchange for the gold essence money from the owner of the Relic Pearl Tower. It would be better if we can gather the materials for the Hidden Immortal Brew."

Fairy Lingyue then added another sentence.

"It's natural."

Xu Taiping responded secretly.

"Wouyou...Young Master Wuyou!"

At this moment, shopkeeper Yang's voice sounded from the side.

I saw a look of panic on his face when he shouted to Xu Taiping.

"What's the reaction from the host?"

Xu Taiping looked over at Shopkeeper Yang.

"Master, the master asked me to hand over the jade slip to you... He has something to ask you."

Shopkeeper Yang Da, who looked frightened, carefully handed the sound transmission jade slip to Xu Taiping's hand.

"Young Master Wuyou, please forgive me for being so presumptuous, but I would like to ask if this yellow dog devil is really killed by you?"

Although shopkeeper Yang Da only conveyed Xu Taiping's words to the owner of Yizhu Tower intact, he still guessed something from the words of the owner of Yizhu Tower.

"It was a lucky day."

Xu Taiping took the jade slip and nodded to Shopkeeper Yang.

Although Xu Taiping answered lightly, shopkeeper Yang Da, who had received the confirmation, and Lu Bugong, who had been listening attentively for a long time, both had shocked looks on their faces.

At first, Lu Bugong only knew that Xu Taiping had a corpse of a demon species on his body, but he did not know that it was the famous yellow dog demon species.

Later I learned that it was the yellow dog demon species, but I didn't know until this moment that the yellow dog demon species was actually killed by Xu Taiping.

"Zhang Wuyou, I'm here to pay my respects to the Master of Yi Zhu Tower."

Under the complicated gazes of Shopkeeper Yang and Lu Bugong, Xu Taiping picked up the jade slip and paid his respects to the owner of the Lost Pearl Tower on the other side of the slip.

"Zhang Wuyou, isn't this your real name?"

The somewhat indifferent voice of the owner of Yizhu Hall immediately came from the other side of the jade slip.

"The host is laughing at you."

Xu Taiping prevaricated.

"Looking at how calm you are, I've already guessed that someone is trying to lure you out under the pretext of assassinating me, right?"

The owner of Yizhu Tower did not ask about Xu Taiping's true identity, but confirmed it to Xu Taiping.

"The host has a keen eye and I have indeed guessed it."

Xu Taiping nodded.

"I don't care what grudges you have with those people outside. As long as you don't cause trouble in my Yi Zhu Mansion, I won't see anything."

The owner of Yizhu Tower said in a cold voice.

"Lord, you can rest assured. I can handle those people outside by myself, and they will never delay your Yi Zhu Tower's business."

Xu Taiping nodded, then looked at Zhuang Mu's figure in the shadow cast by the spiritual mirror again and said:

"But please, sir, please don't disturb the people behind Zhuang Mu for the time being. Everything in front of you should be treated as if nothing happened and everything will remain as usual."

…

The Pearl Tower.

Top floor.

"He didn't ask you for help, but asked you to pretend that nothing happened?"

In the study of the master of Yi Zhu Building, a voice came from the spiritual mirror in front of him.

In the spiritual mirror, a long-faced old man with sunken eyes was currently appearing.

This old man is none other than the elder of Guangling Pavilion and a close friend of the owner of Yizhu Pavilion.

"right."

The owner of Yi Zhu in front of the spiritual mirror took a sip of tea and then nodded.

"However, he still sold the body of the yellow dog demon species to me. He only took away a million gold coins and did not ask for anything else from me."

The owner of Yizhu then added another sentence.

"I knew clearly that there was a demon cultivator ambushing me outside, but not only did I not ask you for help, but I walked out in such a arrogant way, not even bothering to hide. Where did this kid get the confidence to be so fearless?"

Elder Lou in the spiritual mirror stretched out his hand and rubbed the center of his brow, muttering in confusion.

"Your young master still doesn't want to reveal this son's identity?"

The small mung bean eyes of the owner of Yi Zhu were half-closed, looking unblinkingly at the other spiritual mirror on the side.

I saw Xu Taiping, with a monkey sitting on his shoulder in the spiritual mirror, walking quickly downstairs after putting away the medicine he had just bought from the building.

"That kid has a very harsh tone. I beat him up and he didn't even say a word."

Although the expression on Elder Lou's face was full of displeasure, there was a hint of admiration in his tone of voice.

"This guy's cultivation is not good, his talent is average, but his character is just okay."

Although the owner of Yizhu said this with the same boastful face, his tone was also somewhat appreciative.

"Speaking of which, Lao Lou, are you and I really going to stand by and watch this time?"

The owner of Yizhu Building looked at the elder of the building in the spiritual mirror.

The reason why he was so cold towards Xu Taiping before was all because the elder of Guangling Pavilion had told him in advance that he wanted him to test Xu Taiping to see if he could find out his true identity.

"Let's act by ear. If that doesn't work, I'll ask Yi Zhu to take action on my behalf. I can't let the Shangqing cultivation world lose a hero with such a talent for cultivation."

The elder of Guangling Pavilion frowned.

"Even if you don't tell me, Lao Lou, I will do it."

The owner of Yizhu shook his head.

"Um?"

At this moment, the owner of Yi Zhu Tower suddenly saw in the spiritual mirror that Xu Taiping, who had reached the door of the first floor of Yi Zhu Tower, suddenly stopped.

"Is this kid regretting it and wanting to ask you for help?"

Elder Lou, who was in the other spiritual mirror, also saw this scene from his own spiritual mirror.

The owner of Yizhu Tower did not answer, but quietly stared at Xu Taiping in the spiritual mirror.

At this time, Xu Taiping, who had just stopped in the spiritual mirror, slowly turned around, then looked at the Master of the Lost Pearl Building on the other side of the spiritual mirror with a smile:

"Sir, the owner of the building, I may need to lend you the sword hidden in the building later. I hope that the owner will let you go."

Elder Lou Da and Yi Zhu Louzhu looked at each other.

Then I heard Elder Lou Da say in confusion:

"I'm not asking you to take action, Brother Yizhu, but I want to borrow the sword hidden in your building, Brother Yizhu. What exactly does this kid want to do?"

…

"Sister Lingyue, do you really just need to say hello to the owner of Yizhu Tower?"

The entrance to Yi Zhu Tower.

After Xu Taiping shouted to the owner of Yizhu Building from a distance, he led Lu Bugong towards the street ahead and asked Fairy Lingyue very curiously.

"If it weren't for the fact that he was selling your 700-year-old mustard root cheaply, your sister and I wouldn't even bother to say hello to him."

Fairy Lingyue said in a very nonchalant tone.

Xu Taiping smiled sarcastically.

At this moment, Bai Yu, who was standing on Xu Taiping's shoulder, suddenly sent a message to Xu Taiping:

"Taiping, there are many monks with powerful auras who are approaching you sneakily."

Bai Yu, who has clairvoyance, can clearly see the situation a few streets away, even from across the houses.

"good."

Xu Taiping clicked and placed the ring on his left hand against the skin of his left eye, and then let the gold coins in the ring drip into his lotus pupils like running water.

At the same time, he sent a message to Fairy Lingyue in his heart:

"Sister Lingyue, I'm going to open my lotus pupils."

Immediately, Fairy Lingyue’s voice sounded in his mind——

"Taiping, I'm ready, you can drive."
