Mortal Bones

"I understand, Sister Lingyue."

Xu Taiping responded like this and took out two scrolls from the spirit beads in his belly.

These two scrolls are exactly the paintings of ghosts and gods given by the Emperor of Xuanhuang Tower after climbing to the top of Xuanhuang Tower.

At this moment, what Xu Taiping took out from the ring were the red lion and the old smoker in the picture of ghosts and gods.

As for the portrait of the Snow Land Ghost Lord, because Emperor Xuanhuang's seal could only trap him for ten years, Xu Taiping definitely did not dare to summon him out again.

But Red Lion and Lao Yangui are different. They were completely bred by Xuanhuang Tower. As long as Xuanhuang Tower is still there, they can't get rid of the shackles of Xuanhuang Tower's seal.

Therefore, even if Emperor Xuanhuang's Wangyoufeng has expired, he can still use these two paintings.

"boom!……"

While he was taking out the scroll, a heavy collision sound suddenly sounded outside the stone prison.

Xu Taiping knew that this should be the sound of the last stone door opening in the passage outside the stone prison.

Sure enough, not long after the collision, Xu Taiping heard a crisp sound of footsteps, walking towards the door of the stone prison where he was.

Immediately, while trying to activate the sword energy and thunder in the acupuncture points sealed by the golden needles, he said to Old Smoker and Red Lion in his heart:

"Old Smoker, Red Lion, you wait in the painting first, and then come out when I give the order."

Red Lion laughed strangely and said:

"It's an order."

The old smoker took a puff of cigarette with a "click" sound in the painting, and then replied in a cautious tone:

"Master, be careful."

Xu Taiping, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, nodded calmly and responded in his heart:

"I will."

Just as he was talking, the footsteps in the passage suddenly stopped, and then with another burst of machine sound, the door of the stone prison slowly rose with a "rumbling" sound.

Xu Taiping's eyes were very human after he broke through the transformation state, so even if it was pitch black, he could still clearly see the appearance of the person at the door.

However, after seeing clearly the appearance of the person coming at the door, Xu Taiping was stunned.

To be precise, there were two people standing at the door.

One male and one female.

The woman is none other than Qian Xiaofu, the granddaughter of Qian Yi, the elder of Chunyang Sword Sect.

And that man turned out to be Bai Di from Liliu Village.

Qian Xiaofu seemed to guess from Xu Taiping's surprised eyes that Xu Taiping had recognized her.

So she snorted at Xu Taiping with a look of disgust:

"This girl is right, you are indeed a bad boy!"

When she said this, Qian Xiaofu came to Xu Taiping in a blink of an eye with a "swish" sound, and kicked Xu Taiping hard in the abdomen.

At about the same time as Qian Xiaofu kicked out, the scroll where the old smoker was suddenly trembled, but Xu Taiping immediately ordered to the old smoker in his heart:

"Old smoker, don't come out!"

So the old smoker was trapped in the painting by Xu Taiping's words.

"boom!……"

Almost at the same time, Qian Xiaofu's kick hit Xu Taiping hard in the abdomen.

Because he had no true energy and blood to protect his body, Xu Taiping was kicked hard in the abdomen, and his expression was distorted in pain.

However, contrary to his expression at this time, after confirming the strength of Qian Xiaofu's kick, Xu Taiping showed a happy expression in his heart and said secretly:

"Fortunately, the old smoker didn't come out."

The reason why I am so lucky.

That was because from the strength of Qian Xiaofu's kick, he could confirm that Qian Xiaofu was not a Jiuyuan demon cultivator.

And if he had let the old smoker show up just now, it is very likely that the Jiuyuan Demonic Cultivator hiding in the dark would discover his trump card.

"Cough, cough, cough!..."

Amid a violent cough, Xu Taiping sat up straight again, then looked at Qian Xiaofu calmly and said:

"Miss Qian, breaking into the Jiufu Prison without permission is a serious crime."

Qian Xiaofu snorted coldly, kicked Xu Taiping hard again, and then said angrily:

"How qualified are you, a mere casual cultivator, to convict me?"

As she said that, she kicked Xu Taiping with another "bang" sound, and then continued:

"I might as well tell you that my grandfather will bring someone to take you away without waiting for two days, at most tomorrow."

"Even the Lord of the Nine Palaces won't be able to stop it then!"

After Xu Taiping coughed a few more times, he straightened up again and looked at Qian Xiaofu, with a sneer on his face:

"Since I'm already dead, why did you, Miss Qian, bother to come and visit me?"

Qian Xiaofu was about to speak when Bai Di, who had been silent on the side, suddenly got distracted and came forward to pull her away and said:

"Miss Xiaofu, hand this guy over to me for interrogation."

After Qian Xiaofu heard the words "Xiaofu", her eyes suddenly softened, and she immediately said "hmm" and stepped aside obediently. Her demeanor was completely different from when she faced Xu Tai.

Bai Di walked up to Xu Taiping, smiled coldly and said:

"Chu Pingan, to be honest, I really admire your courage."

Bai Di knelt down and continued:

"You actually dare to kill even the guardian elders of the Nine Prefectures!"

Xu Taiping said nothing, just looked at him quietly.

This look made Bai Di suddenly recall the situation when Wenjian suffered a disastrous defeat that day.

Immediately, Bai Di stood up expressionlessly, and then kicked Xu Taiping hard in the chest without warning.

"boom!……"

The huge force of Bai Di's foot kicked Xu Taiping off the ground and hit him hard on the wall of the stone prison.

This kick made Xu Taiping almost faint from the pain.

At the same time, a voice came from outside the stone prison, warning Bai Di and Qian Xiaofu:

"Keep down."

"Also, you only have a cup of tea, ask whatever you want to ask quickly."

Obviously, this was the elder who opened the door for Qian Xiaofu and Bai Di.

Upon hearing this, Qian Xiaofu responded sweetly:

"Don't worry, Elder Liu, we will finish asking questions soon."

After saying this, Qian Xiaofu turned to look at Bai Di, and said a little embarrassedly:

"Brother Bai Di, we only have a cup of tea, you'd better hurry up."

Bai Di nodded, walked to Xu Taiping again and squatted down.

Bai Di said to Xu Taiping expressionlessly:

"Chu Ping'an, I'll give you a way out, do you want it?"

Xu Taiping raised his head, looked at Bai Di deeply, and then nodded:

"Tell me about it."

Bai Di whispered:

"Give me your body-building method and boxing manual, and I can help you remove the soul needle from your body."

Xu Taiping smiled and said:

"Do you think I will believe it?"

Bai Di said expressionlessly:

"Do you think you have a choice?"

Xu Taiping did not respond, but turned to look at Qian Xiaofu behind him and said:

"Miss Qian, can you tell me what time it is now?"

Although Qian Xiaofu was very confused by Xu Taiping's unreasonable question, she did not get angry immediately but looked at Bai Di.

Bai Di thought about it, and finally nodded to Qian Xiaofu.

Seeing this, Qian Xiaofu said unhappily:

"When we came in, it was already 15:30, so it should be midnight now."

Hearing this, Xu Taiping sat up from the ground with difficulty, leaning against the cold stone wall behind him, one hand on the ground, one hand on his raised knee, and then "whoosh" a long breath of turbid air from his chest.

Bai Di watched Xu Taiping sit down quietly, and then asked fearlessly:

"Time is running out, have you thought it through?"

Xu Taiping looked over at Bai Di, and shook his head calmly:

"Time is running out, it's you who are running out."
