Chapter 352: Capture the Stone
"The person in charge of this altar is really a person from Liu'an, he is really wishful thinking, he grabbed the goods, and he wants to seek another compensation. Cai'er, you went to the vicinity of Splitting Wind Cliff to stare at this Di Feng during this time. Be careful not to get discovered. Shi Mu groaned slightly, and Chong Cai'er commanded.
"Stone, you can rest assured!" Cai'er replied and flew out with her wings spread.
"Brother Shi, what did you think of?" Zhong Xiu asked.
"Xiu'er, maybe the fish we're waiting for is about to be hooked. You will ......be like this for the next few days," Shi Mu smiled slightly, and whispered something in Zhong Xiu's ear.
......
More than ten days later, in a secluded small valley dozens of miles away from the outskirts of Cangxu City.
It's in the middle of nowhere, far from official roads, and few people go there on weekdays, let alone at night.
At that moment, a dark shadow shook a few times, and then appeared in the valley.
Taking advantage of the moonlight, you can see that this person is in his thirties, with a thin figure and red eyebrows, it is Di Feng.
Di Feng carefully guarded his surroundings along the way, and after confirming that there was no problem, he walked directly to a hidden cave in the valley.
The cave is not big, only more than ten zhang in size, and in the center of the cave, there is a woman in red, who is the woman surnamed Zhen.
Somewhere in the valley, Shi Mu saw this scene through Cai'er's vision, his face changed slightly, and then he showed a hint of joy.
At the same time, in the cave, Di Feng and the woman surnamed Zhen had already started a conversation.
"Senior Brother Di, did that Zhong Xiu really appear?" asked the woman surnamed Zhen.
"Yes, I should have entered the city a long time ago, but I have only started to move around the city in the past few days. Di Feng said.
"Oh, she's alone, but what's unusual?" asked the woman surnamed Zhen.
"Yes, alone. She would go to Hanyuan Pavilion every other day, and she also went to the City Lord's Mansion once during this period. Di Feng frowned slightly and said.
"City Lord's Mansion...... Han Yuan Court ...... Do you know what she's going to do?" asked the woman surnamed Zhen.
She seemed to have talked to Ling Hukuan about the goods, and assured him in the name of the Chamber of Commerce that she would deliver the goods on time before the delivery date, otherwise she would pay three times the price...... Every time she entered Hanyuan Pavilion, she was looking for Wang Ruikun, and she talked about it for more than half an hour, and I don't know what she said specifically. Senior Sister Zhen, I'm worried about what evidence she has, so I came to you to ventilate, after all, the Tianwu Chamber of Commerce has a deep background, if it is really found out that we have done it, it will be difficult to deal with it once it is blamed. Di Feng said.
"There was some accident at that time, and this Zhong Xiu was not removed. Although this woman knows that this matter has something to do with us, I can guarantee that she has no evidence about our actions, after all, it was the old guy Mo Yunyang who came forward at that time, and there are many barbarians who are greedy for leaps and bounds in strength and then cultivate zombie skills, which does not mean that it is the hand of our Stygian Moon Sect. Besides, Wang Ruikun, an old fox, is famously cautious, even if Zhong Xiu says it, he may not believe it, don't worry, just execute it according to the original plan. The woman surnamed Zhen said.
"Then I'm relieved. I have reached a consensus with Linghukuan, and as soon as the delivery period arrives in a few days, we will ask the Tianwu Chamber of Commerce for compensation. Di Feng said.
"Well, you can do the rest yourself. The woman surnamed Zhen said.
"By the way, how is the situation in the other roads, and how are the star stones collected?" Di Feng nodded and asked.
"There are still a lot of gaps, but ......," said a woman surnamed Zhen.
......
And so it was. When Shi Mu saw this, he couldn't help but think of the blood-haired man who looked handsome and elegant, and everything that happened at the Tianyu City Immortal Ascension Auction back then, this person was a master of intrigue and trickery.
This time to collect star stones, I'm afraid there is some conspiracy being planned.
Shi Mu's mind turned, he was not interested in Liu An's conspiracy, but since this woman surnamed Zhen had snatched Zhong Xiu, he naturally wanted to seek justice and take the star stone back.
However, there are two moon-rank warlocks on the other side, and he is only alone, so he has little chance of winning in the battle, but it is a little troublesome.
At this moment, a cyan bracelet on the wrist of the woman surnamed Zhen flickered, her face changed, her eyes closed, and she suddenly opened it after a while.
"Senior Sister Zhen, what's wrong?" Di Feng hurriedly asked.
The woman surnamed Zhen didn't answer, groaned slightly, turned over and took out a jade box, and handed it to Di Feng.
"Senior Brother Di, there are two star stones here, you can bring them back to the main altar and give them to Senior Brother Liu. He had just sent a message that he needed this item urgently. The woman surnamed Zhen said.
"Senior Sister Zhen, aren't you going back?" Di Feng hurriedly took the jade box and asked.
"Something happened somewhere else and I needed to get there immediately. The stakes are high, and you must escort them there. As for the matter of asking for compensation from the Tianwu Chamber of Commerce, Senior Brother Di, you can arrange for someone else to deal with it. The woman surnamed Zhen said.
"Okay, these are trivial things, Senior Sister Zhen doesn't have to worry about it. Di Feng nodded.
The woman surnamed Zhen smiled, talked to Di Feng for a few more words, and then took the lead to leave, walked out of the cave, turned into a gray light and flew into the distance.
After a while, Di Feng quickly walked out of the cave as well, looked around a few times, and did not fly away like the woman surnamed Zhen, but swept backwards from the ground towards Cangxu City.
However, as soon as he reached the mouth of the valley, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him, dressed in a black robe and wearing a hat, and stopped in front.
"Who is it, why are you blocking my way here?" Di Feng was shocked in his heart and asked in a deep voice.
With the power of his own moon-level warlock's divine sense, he didn't even detect the slightest disturbance before the other party appeared.
Fortunately, the aura of the person in front of him is not strong, but he is just a late-stage innate martial artist.
Di Feng secretly condensed the mana in his body, and secretly considered in his heart when this person came here, whether he found out about his meeting with the woman surnamed Zhen, if so, he would not be able to stay today.
"Hehe, Lord Di is really a noble person. The black-robed man chuckled and removed the hat from his head, revealing the face of a young man with well-defined features.
"Are you...... Shi Mu!" Di Feng's eyes fell on Shi Mu's face, his expression was stunned for a moment, and then he shouted in a low voice.
"It seems that the hall master Di Feng has not forgotten to be here, it is really an honor. A smile appeared on Shi Mu's face.
"What did Brother Shi say, thanks to your parrot's ability to predict at sea, our fleet avoided a lot of dangers. Anyway, you suddenly disappeared later, and we are all worried about you, especially Senior Brother Liu An, who has been looking for you everywhere all these years. Di Feng laughed, and the tension between the two seemed to ease a little.
Shi Mu smiled faintly and did not respond.
"By the way, since Brother Shi has also arrived in the Xihe Continent, it is better to consider joining our Stygian Moon Sect. Now that the Eastern and Western Sects of the Stygian Moon Sect have merged, Senior Brother Liu has been promoted to the deputy sect leader, and with Brother Shi's talent, if he wants to join, he can at least be an altar master. Di Feng said, but his eyes wandered around Shi Mu.
"Thank you for your kindness, but you don't have to. Shi came to your Excellency this time to retrieve something from the Lord of the Di Palace. Shi Mu said.
"What is it?" Di Feng's face was slightly gloomy, and his smile slowly converged.
"Star Stone. Shi Mu said.
"What Star Stone, what does Brother Shi Mu mean by this?" Di Feng asked with a puzzled look.
"Shi doesn't want to interfere in anything with your Stygian Moon Sect, but if your Stygian Moon Sect provokes me, Shi won't be relenting. Shi Mu's voice turned deep.
The disguised doubt on Di Feng's face slowly disappeared, and his expression sank.
"I have seen the matter of your Stygian Moon Sect colluding with the Winged Crane Department in Cloud Wing City and plundering the caravan of the Tianwu Chamber of Commerce from beginning to end, do you want me to tell me more details? I didn't want to care about this matter originally, but an important person around me was involved, and that star stone was very important to her, and I asked the Lord of the Di Hall to return it. Shi Mu said.
"Since Brother Shi Mu already knows about this, then Di might as well open the skylight and say something. When Di Feng heard this, his expression calmed down.
Shi Mu looked into Di Feng's eyes and did not speak.
"That star stone is indeed our shot, but it is still impossible, this thing is still of great use to us. But the matter has come to this point, for Brother Shi's sake, Di is willing to give corresponding compensation. In addition, we will not pursue the truckload of materials in Xiaoyu. This matter has been revealed, how about it?" Di Feng said with a slight groan.
"Isn't the Lord of the Di Hall joking? This matter was originally the ghost of your Stygian Moon Sect, and you can still say it so eloquently. No matter what, the Star Stone must be returned!" Shi Mu sneered.
Di Feng's face sank, stared at Shi Mu a few times, and suddenly raised his head and laughed.
Shi Mu looked at each other, his eyes narrowed slightly, and the expression on his face did not change at all.
"Shi Mu, don't be ignorant, my politeness to you is for the sake of Senior Brother Liu. You are just an innate martial artist, what qualifications do you have to negotiate with me here. Do you think that Senior Brother Liu An will not dare to do anything to you if Senior Brother Liu An looks at you differently?" Di Feng said word by word, his voice mixed with coldness.
"It seems that Your Excellency is reluctant to return the Star Stone. That being the case, it is useless to say more. Shi Mu sighed.
As soon as Shi Mu's words fell, the next moment, his body had already rushed towards Di Feng like an arrow from the string, and his body was so fast that he brought out a series of afterimages, and in the blink of an eye, he rushed to a distance of three feet in front of Di Feng.
With a flash in his hand, the Meteorite Black Knife had already appeared in his hand, turning into a black lightning bolt and slashing towards Di Feng.
Di Feng's eyes were shocked, as if he didn't expect Shi Mu to dare to make a move on him first, and at such a fast speed.
However, as a moon-level warlock, he was naturally also a person with rich combat experience, and with a flash of gray light in his hand, he had an extra staff with a skull inlaid on the top.
The gray light in the skull flashed, and a burst of gray light immediately appeared on the ground in front of Di Feng, and a huge bone shield jumped out of the gray light in the air, blocking in front of him.
"Bang"!
The black knife slashed at the bone shield, and then a huge force came directly, with a "click", the blade of the knife slashed deeply into the bone shield, cutting a hole several feet long, but the attack of the black knife was finally resisted, and the tip of the knife was only half a foot away from Di Feng.
A layer of fine cold sweat appeared on Di Feng's face, and a trace of horror flashed in his eyes.
This Nine Ghost Bone Shield is a high-level spell that can only be cultivated by a Moon-level warlock, and it is enough to withstand the attack of a ground-level powerhouse, but now it has been almost split in half by the opponent's sword! )
