After the discussion, the masters of the Righteous Alliance returned to their own courtyards with worries. This chapter is provided by the website for online reading

Among them, Mr. Liu and the two masters Zizhen and Li Fulu discussed a few more words, and then flew back to their own courtyards.

On the way, Mr. Liu frowned and looked very worried. After learning the secrets and purpose of the "Ming" organization, he felt incredible and the situation was serious, but he was not panicked, because in his opinion, with the concerted efforts of the twelve masters and the solution of the "Four Spirits Sky Map", everything was under his control.

But gradually, the Eight Desolate Palace, the beast-crazy monks, and the southern wilderness monsters appeared one after another, making the Righteous Alliance, which was established to eliminate the "Nether" organization, exhausted and exhausted its strength. The action to deal with the "Nether" organization was delayed again and again. Decades have passed. Although all kinds of chaos that have appeared one after another have been eliminated by the Righteous Alliance, there are only one or two years left before the "Nether" organization's goal is accomplished. At this critical moment, the key to dealing with the "Nether" organization-the "Four Spirits Sky Map" was also lost. For the first time, Mr. Liu felt that the situation was out of his prediction and out of his control.

The two countermeasures discussed at the gathering just now, to find the traces of the "Nether" organization and Zhang Xusheng with all their strength, seem to have a goal, seem to have a countermeasure, and the countermeasure goal seems simple, but people with a discerning eye understand that all these measures are just to do their best to reassure people. The Righteous Alliance has searched for the traces of the "Nether" organization and Zhang Xusheng for hundreds of years, but has not found any traces. What can they find in less than two years? Even if Zhang Xusheng, who has obtained the "Four Spirits Sky Map", is found during this period, who can easily deal with the "Ming" organization that has been planning for tens of thousands of years?

The strategy is correct, but basically, it is useless.

But sadly, even Mr. Liu, who has always prided himself on his wisdom, can't think of any other way. All he has left is to do his best and hope that God will suddenly open his eyes at this time.

"If in the last two years, there is still no trace of the Ming organization and Zhang Xusheng, then it will be a real catastrophe. Compared with this, the previous nine catastrophes are just minor. But in that case, how many creatures will be left in the vast land of Shenzhou? And the entire human society is afraid that it will disappear from the vast land of Shenzhou from now on."

Thinking of this, Mr. Liu's eyebrows showed a few more traces of anxiety and helplessness. When he detained the four great beasts in succession, there was no such change.

While thinking secretly, Mr. Liu returned to his courtyard. But he saw Xu Qingfan standing in front of the courtyard waiting for him.

"Qingfan, is there anything?"

Due to the "Four Spirits Heaven Map" incident, Mr. Liu has paid less attention to Xu Qingfan. Except for going deep into the Southern Wilds several times when he thought Xu Qingfan was dead and giving instructions to Xu Qingfan in person when he just came back, there was no contact.

Of course, Xu Qingfan had just come back for a day.

Xu Qingfan opened his mouth and was about to say something. But Mr. Liu thought of something. The tired look between his eyebrows became more intense. He pushed the door open and said, "Come in and talk."

Xu Qingfan nodded. He followed Mr. Liu into the courtyard. He did not enter the house. He sat down on both sides of the stone table under a willow tree in the courtyard.

Mr. Liu pondered for a moment. Then he said slowly: "You came to me this time. Is it because of the disappearance of Jin Qinghan and Dongfang Qingling?"

Xu Qingfan smiled bitterly and said: "Yes. I came back for a day. I learned about their disappearance."

Mr. Liu nodded and said: "I know, I asked them not to tell you for the time being. You just experienced life and death danger. I don't want you to have any more accidents in a short time. I was thinking of looking for you tonight, teaching you a secret method, and letting you retreat for a period of time, but I think they didn't listen to me. So, you are going back to the Southern Wilderness again?"

Xu Qingfan nodded and said softly: "Junior Brother Jin and Junior Sister Dongfang are willing to do this for me, I have no reason to hide here and wait for them to come back safely. Or they are in danger and need my help at this time. Even if they have any accidents... at least, at least I will bring their bones back and bury them properly."

Although the words were light, they were full of determination. Mr. Liu sighed slightly. After observing Xu Qingfan for these years, he already knew Xu Qingfan very well. Knowing that Xu Qingfan seemed casual, but once he made a decision and felt that he was right, no one could change his mind. In addition, considering the current environment faced by the cultivation world, Mr. Liu didn't know what would happen in two years even if he protected Xu Qingfan at this time. For a moment, even someone as determined as him was a little discouraged, so he stopped blocking him and just asked, "Who do you want to go to the Southern Wilds with this time?"

Xu Qingfan frowned slightly, then smiled and said slowly, "I'm alone, no one. In fact, I could have taken Xiao Jin back last time, but because I was afraid of the strength of the Heavenly Rank Monster Beast, I thought it would be easier to take care of him with more people, so I took Junior Brother Jin and Junior Sister Dongfang with me. As a result, Junior Brother Jin and Junior Sister Dongfang were harmed. Now I will never make this mistake again."

Seeing that Mr. Liu frowned and wanted to say something, Xu Qingfan said again, "I still have eight of the Heavenly Escape Talismans you gave me at that time, so there will be no danger."

Mr. Liu sighed: "There are many dangers that cannot be escaped with the Sky Escape Talisman."

Xu Qingfan was silent, but his expression remained firm.

After a moment of silence, Mr. Liu suddenly asked: "Since you have made your decision, why do you suddenly come to me at this time?"

Xu Qingfan asked: "As far as I know, in the first two months after I disappeared, you went deep into the Southern Wilderness three times to look for traces of me. I want to know, during these three explorations of the Southern Wilderness, did you have any information?" Are there any traces of Junior Brother Jin and Junior Sister Dongfang? "

Mr. Liu smiled slightly and said to Xu Qingfan: "I know what you want to ask. I didn't find any bad news about Jin Qinghan and Dongfang Qingling but kept it from you. Otherwise, I would definitely tell you to prevent you from continuing to enter." From the Southern Wilderness.”

Hearing what Mr. Liu said, Xu Qingfan breathed out slowly. He was afraid that Mr. Liu would hide some bad news from him.

Xu Qingfan was about to leave, but heard Mr. Liu continue: "At this time in the Southern Wilderness, the nine-tailed demon fox must be fighting with the two unicorns. Although the unicorns are the strongest among all beasts, the nine-tailed demon fox is so cunning that it must be dealt with It must be extremely difficult, so the chaos in the Southern Wilderness at this time is really not inferior to other places in the vast land of China. In addition, you released the two unicorns. The nine-tailed demon fox must hate you very much. This time you enter again. The danger in Southern Wilderness is even greater than last time. Based on my promise to you and my grudges with the nine-tailed demon fox, it’s okay to go to Southern Wilderness with you this time. But I have other important matters in the past two years. , Tomorrow I and the other old guys will leave Ronghua, but we can’t take care of you. Even in the next two years, we old guys will rarely return to Ronghua Mountain. Everything in the past two years, You can only rely on yourself, so be careful."

Hearing Mr. Liu's words, Xu Qingfan was slightly startled and asked: "But I don't know what it is that requires you and all the masters to do it in person, but you still don't have the confidence to do it?"

Xu Qingfan asked this, not because he panicked without Mr. Liu's care, but because Mr. Liu had taken good care of him over the years. Seeing that Mr. Liu's face was full of exhaustion and helplessness at this time, he simply asked with concern.

But Xu Qingfan never expected that such a casual question would lead to a big secret and conspiracy that had been in the world of immortality for tens of thousands of years.

But after hearing Xu Qingfan's question, Mr. Liu hesitated slightly, then sighed again and said: "Well, I'd better tell you. After all, there are only two years left. If I don't tell you now, Isn’t it unfair for you to become a fool after two years? Besides, you are qualified to know now. Even if I don’t tell you, Zhang Hualing will tell you in the next two days. "

Under Xu Qingfan's puzzled gaze, Mr. Liu asked: "Have you been wondering all these years? What was the content of the letter Liu Huaxiang asked you to send to Zizhen? It actually brought Zhengdaoxun, who had always been at odds with each other, together. , established the Righteous Alliance? After the Righteous Alliance was established, why did we old guys not care about the fight between you juniors and the Bahuang Palace and the beast mad monks, and just focused on looking for the traces of Ming? It seems that no matter how many monks died in the Righteous Alliance, Isn’t it as important as the news from the Yi Ming Organization? The four divine beasts guard the four directions and are an important part of the Heavenly Dao. Why should we imprison them and refine them into magic weapons without fear of the Heavenly Dao’s backlash?”

Xu Qingfan nodded. This was what he had been wondering about for all these years, but he didn't expect that Mr. Liu would tell him the cause and effect today. He couldn't help but look forward to it. He had been feeling helpless because he was worried about Jin Qinghan and Dongfang Qingling. The tired mood was dissipated a lot.

Under Xu Qingfan's gaze, Mr. Liu suddenly smiled and slowly said something irrelevant: "That Zhang Xusheng, I am indeed not as good as him."

While Xu Qingfan was confused, Mr. Liu suddenly lowered his head and looked at Xu Qingfan, and then asked: "Let me ask you, how much do you know about the Shura clan back then?"
