"Here's the thing. In fact, Princess Yueni of the Lushan Dynasty was not elected, and it was another woman named Zhong Xiu who was elected. It's just that at the last moment, for some reason, this woman suddenly proposed to voluntarily give up her qualification for immortal ascension. Xu Luzi explained.

"Yes, this immortal ascension ceremony is half a time, not to mention the strict requirements for the candidates, and the number of places is only six, which is simply one in ten thousand. Once selected, there is a chance to ascend to the sky in one step and become a legendary immortal, but someone was chosen, but he took the initiative to give up, once this matter came out, it caused a lot of sensation in the entire Tianyu City and even the Lushan Dynasty. The shopkeeper Tian added.

When Shi Mu heard this, his face changed slightly, and he looked ahead in a daze, and his heart was mixed for a while.

Zhong Xiu's reason for doing this, others may not know, but he can vaguely guess seven or eight points in his heart.

He was wanted by the Heavenly Dao Arrest Order jointly issued by the two major forces of the Tongtian Immortal Sect and the Heavenly Demon Sect this time, how could Zhong Xiu not know, and with his character, he naturally would not sit idly by......

As soon as he thought of this, Shi Mu couldn't help but feel a trace of inexplicable emotion in his heart, and his mood unconsciously changed.

"Xiu'er, why are you so stupid......" he muttered secretly in his heart.

"Could it be that Mu Daoyou knows Zhong Xiu's daughter?" Xu Luzi observed the change in Shi Mu's expression and asked.

When the shopkeeper Tian on the side heard this, he also looked at Shi Mu.

"Not bad. Shi Mu did not deny it.

"Hehe, I didn't expect this girl who made a shocking move to be a friend of Mu Daoyou. Xu Luzi smiled slightly.

"Master Xu, I wonder if your Tianwu Chamber of Commerce can help find out where that Zhong Xiu is now?" Shi Mu suddenly looked up and asked.

"Oh, is it just to investigate the whereabouts of that Zhong Xiu?" asked Xu Luzi.

"For now, let's do it first. When we find her traces, there may be other things to ask you about in the future. Shi Mu thought about it for a moment. Said.

"Yes. Ordinary people are looking for people in the Tianwu Chamber of Commerce, at least a thousand spirit stones. Make an exception today, count Mu Daoyou's five hundred spirit stones. Xu Luzi said.

Shi Mu did not hesitate, and with a wave of his hand, five medium-grade spirit stones appeared on the table.

"Okay, we'll get back to you as soon as possible. Xu Luzi said, made a gesture, and motioned to the shopkeeper Tian to put away the spirit stone.

"That being the case, then I will wait for your good news. Shi Mu stood up.

"Mu Daoyou, I haven't seen the results of the Demon Yang Ceremony. Xu Luzi pointed to another jade talisman.

"Oh. I almost forgot. Shi Mu smiled slightly, took the jade talisman, followed the example of Xu Luzi, and injected a wisp of mana.

The jade talisman suddenly lit up with white light, condensing into a picture, on which six figures appeared, four men and two women.

Shi Mu's eyes swept and his brows furrowed.

Among the six people, Jin Xiaochai was not seen. Something he didn't expect.

"Huh!"

His eyes widened suddenly, and he looked at a gray-robed young man on the far right, who looked extremely young, probably only seventeen or eighteen years old.

"Feng Li!" he was shocked.

Since that year, Fengcheng has been farewell. The two never met again, but they didn't expect him to go to the Heavenly Demon Sect and participate in the Demon Yang Ceremony.

He rolled his gaze. It fell on the name next to Feng Li.

Feng Mao......

It seems that this Feng Li didn't know what means he used, and used a fake name to participate in the Demon Yang Ceremony. There must be a story in it that no one knows, if we can meet in the future. He wanted to ask.

"Mu Daoyou, don't you recognize this Feng Mao?" Xu Luzi's eyes flickered and asked.

"Why did Master Xu ask this?" Shi Mu asked rhetorically.

"If Mu Daoyou knows the details of this person, the old man is willing to pay a thousand spirit stones to buy it. Xu Luzi said.

"I'm sorry, I just think this person is a bit like a friend I used to know, but if you look closely, it seems that you have recognized the wrong person. Shi Mu said with a smile.

"I see. Xu Luzi glanced at Shi Mu deeply and said.

"Then I'll take my leave. Shi Mu turned a blind eye to Xu Luzi's gaze, nodded at the two, and walked outside.

Shopkeeper Tian hurriedly walked over and personally sent Shi Mu out.

Xu Luzi stood by the window, looked at Shi Mu's figure in the distance, turned over and took out a white jade slip, which was the Heavenly Dao Arrest Order issued by the Tongtian Immortal Sect.

An image of Shi Mu appeared on the jade slip, as well as his name.

"Shi Mu, it's really a little different. ”

Xu Luzi muttered to himself, shook his head with a chuckle, and turned his hand to put away the jade slip.

A moment later, the living room door was pushed open again, and the shopkeeper Tian walked in.

"Master Xu, Liu An is here and wants to see you. Tian shopkeeper said.

"Okay, you take him to Parlor No. 2 first, and I'll go over later. Xu Luzi's eyes moved and said.

Shopkeeper Tian agreed, but there was a faint resentment in his tone.

"Are you still concerned about what happened in the Baoguang Pavilion of Tianyu City?" Xu Luzi said.

Shopkeeper Tian didn't speak, which was considered a tacit acquiescence.

"The Stygian Sect has made compensation for the impact caused that day, and has also received the understanding of the senior management of the Chamber of Commerce, so the matter is over. Don't forget the principles of my Tianwu Chamber of Commerce, don't participate in secular disputes, put interests first, don't let some prejudices affect your judgment. Although Xu Luzi's tone was calm, the implicit warning in his words shocked the shopkeeper Tian's heart.

"Yes, thank you for the admonition. Shopkeeper Tian said respectfully and retreated.

Xu Luzi picked up the two magic weapons left by Shi Mu and walked out.

A moment later, in another living room, a handsome young man in a moon-white robe and a blood-haired shawl was drinking tea with his head bowed, his expression was casual, it was Liu An.

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and then Xu Luzi pushed the door and walked in.

"Hall Keeper, I'm sorry for the fact that there are some things that need to be dealt with and have kept you waiting. ”

"Master Xu doesn't have to be polite. Liu An smiled.

"Lord Liudian is here today, I don't know why?" Xu Luzi sat down opposite Liu'an and asked straight to the point.

"Naturally, it's still the same thing. Liu An put away his smile.

Xu Luzi didn't show a surprised look, nor did he speak, as if he was waiting for Liu An to say what he meant.

"I don't know how the twenty-five Hanhai Giant Ships that I ordered from Your Excellency a few years ago are ready?" asked Liu An.

"According to Your Excellency's request, it is almost ready. According to the plan, it will take another six months to deliver. Xu Luzi said.

Liu An was silent when he heard this, and his brows furrowed slightly.

"What's wrong, is there any problem?" asked Xu Luzi.

"In the next time, I want your chamber of commerce to be able to deliver the goods in half a month. Liu An said.

"Impossible! As a spiritual weapon, the Hanhai Giant Boat is not only difficult to find the materials required, but also extremely complicated in its refining procedures. We have done our best to build according to the process, and it is really impossible to advance it. Xu Luzi shook his head directly.

"I also know that this request is a bit difficult, but now that the situation has changed, I may need to use these giant boats in advance. In terms of quantity, only twenty ships can be delivered, and the cost is willing to increase by 30% on the basis of the total price, and I also ask Elder Xu to take care of it more. Liu An said.

"Well, if it's twenty, that's fine. Xu Luzi said.

"Then please Master Xu. Liu An stood up and saluted.

"Lord Liu doesn't have to be polite, this is just the old man's business. Xu Luzi said.

"That being the case, Liu will come to visit again in half a month. Liu An didn't stay long, got up and said goodbye and left.

"Master Xu, what is this Liu An here for? Why did he leave so quickly?"

"It's still the matter of the Hanhai giant boat, he wants to receive the goods in advance. Xu Luzi briefly described Liu An's requirements and the conditions offered.

Hearing this, Shopkeeper Tian nodded, judging from the progress, I am afraid that the headquarters of the Chamber of Commerce has just finished building twenty-one or two ships.

"This Liu An is really not a simple person, it seems that everything is in his calculations, Dongfang Xian Tian is like this, maybe it is really possible to turn the tide?" Xu Luzi's eyes flickered, and he muttered to himself.

......

In the evening, the silver moon is like a hook, and the stars are dense.

A single horse galloped out from the east gate of Quyang City and headed towards the east.

Shi Mu rode the alien war horse, Cai'er squatted on Shi Mu's shoulder, without the weight of the meteorite iron knife and stick, the horse ran very briskly, and in a few breaths, it disappeared into the vast night.

"Cai'er, it's up to you whether you can kill a griffin this time. Shi Mu said.

"Don't worry, it's up to me!" Cai'er said.

Shi Mu looked ahead, although the Heavenly Demon Sect sent black-winged griffins to monitor the various transportation arteries in the Western Xia Kingdom, but Quyang City was the capital of Western Xia after all, and they did not dare to send griffins here presumptuously.

On the way to Quyang City, within three or four days' distance from Quyang City, there was no shadow of a griffin.

Shi Mu calculated that as long as he galloped along this avenue to the east, as long as his luck was not too bad, he should be able to meet the griffin troops, not to mention Cai'er.

"Stone, if you kill the griffons of the Heavenly Demon Sect, isn't that tantamount to fighting them head-on?" Cai'er said.

"What's the matter! The Heavenly Demon Sect and the Tongtian Immortal Sect wanted me for no reason, and the Jiahe Guan Hall Master ambushed me later, and this time he just let out a bad breath. Shi Mu said.

Two days later.

In a barren mountain range, Shi Mu moved quickly along a mountain peak, without the weight of the meteoric iron knife stick, his speed was nearly half faster than before, like a shadow, quickly jumping forward in the mountains.

Above the mountain range, several black dots hovered high in the sky, and they were none other than the black-winged griffin of the Heavenly Demon Sect.

Shi Mu cautiously approached the griffin from the ground, and he had already done a lot of research before coming.

The reason why the griffin of the Heavenly Demon Sect is extremely difficult to catch and kill is because this kind of flying bird is extremely fast, has strong staying power, and can stay in the sky for a long time.

On the other hand, this griffon has a keen eye, and the slightest movement in the ground below cannot escape their eyes.

Moments later, he climbed one of the largest barren mountains nearby, hid behind a boulder, and looked at the griffons in mid-air.

Beside him, I don't know when Cai'er has disappeared. (To be continued.) )
