The matter finally came to an end, and Tianwu City held a full-day carnival to commemorate the arrival of Tianwu-

It wasn't until night fell that Qi Lu burped back to the wing room to rest.

The room was filled with the strong smell of wine, and Qi Lu smiled and lit the oil lamp in front of the table.

In the bronze mirror on the table, a vague figure appeared, silently floating behind him.

Qi Lu didn't look back, just said lightly: "You always persuaded me not to use divine power, but you couldn't control yourself. ”

"Ahem!" Under the light, Lao Wu's face was yellow, and he opened his mouth and spit out a mouthful of black blood.

Qi Lu hurriedly helped him to the edge of the bed and sat down, and then reached out to check his pulse.

"Don't worry, I can't die yet." Lao Wu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

"I'm sorry, I was too reckless."

"You don't blame you for that." Lao Wu gasped and said, "How did I know that these monsters regard me as their patron saint. ”

Qi Lu sighed and said, "In order to resolve the grievances of Tianwu City, you still exposed your identity after all. ”

As he spoke, his thoughts returned to that distant era, the era of the desolation where the five light glasses, demon beasts, humans, and gods coexisted.

In the haunting Kunlun Sacred Mountain, I didn't realize that as soon as I was born, I had more talents and resources than ordinary people.

It was as if the cycle of fate was constantly turning, and finally it stayed in that wonderful day.

When the Queen Mother of the West was traveling back to the Holy Mountain, she found me playing with my friends. She moved her jade foot lightly, got off the phoenix, and held herself in her arms.

"Tianwu, this little guy will be handed over to you."

"Obey the decree of the mother." Tian Wu grinned and lifted his legs and flew towards the back mountain.

"Little guy, cultivation is not a fun thing, you have to endure hardships." This is the sentence that Tian Wu nagged about the most with himself.

I can't remember how long I have been practicing with Tianwu, the peach blossoms in the peach orchard should have bloomed several times, and of course, the little girl who watered and weeded the peach trees all day long, and finally became his wife

"Hey, silly boy, do you remember the old days again?"

"Yes." Qi Lu came back to his senses, his face slightly red.

"This time, I had no choice but to show my true body, and the plague in my body deepened even more. It seems that I need to go back to treatment as soon as possible, otherwise I may lose my life before the Six Evils can take action. ”

"I know." Qi Lu looked at the night outside the window, "For all this, I can only say I'm sorry." However, the hidden danger of Tianwu City has not been eliminated, and I can't leave yet. ”

"Are you confident that you'll find out who is behind it?"

"Since it was God's will, and then he chose me, then I can only solve this matter in the end." Qi Lu smiled slightly, "I have already thought of a plan. ”

"Actually, I've roughly guessed who is pretending to be Bai Suzhen."

"I'm the same, she exposed her details when she used the Illusory Shadow Technique on me in the Water Spirit Palace. Although she is not Bai Suzhen herself, it also made me greatly narrow the scope of my suspicions. What I'm going to do now is to force her to show up on her own. ”

"Need my help?"

"You're so badly injured, I can't put you in danger anymore."

"Alright then, be careful yourself." Lao Wu dropped another sentence: "You must find Xu Xian and bring him back to the real world, I always have a bad premonition, if he stays in Tianwu City, I am afraid that it will turn the world upside down." ”

The strong wind blew in his face, Qi Lu didn't look back, he knew that Lao Wu was gone, and the rest was only for him to face it.

Before leaving, Lao Wu deliberately left something on the table, which was a piece of snake scales that had been cut in half by a sharp knife, reflecting the dim light and glowing with a strange dark cyan.

"Sure enough, I thought of it." Qi Lu chuckled, squeezed it in his hand, opened the door, and plunged himself into the vast night.

He came to the Water Spirit Palace again, and with him came Bai Yuan, who carried a hoe on his shoulder.

It was only a day and night's work, and the Water Spirit Palace was deserted, the walls were mottled, and the corners were full of cobwebs. It must have been the person who pretended to be Bai Suzhen before, who used demon magic to confuse everyone, making everyone mistakenly think that it had always been so magnificent.

Bai Yuan asked, "Engong, how did you know that the murderer was hiding in this Water Spirit Palace?" ”

"The safest place to hide is where you don't expect it."

The two walked straight to Bai Suzhen's ice coffin, Qi Lu checked the surrounding environment, pointed to the east corner and said, "Dig this place." ”

"Can you be sure of this?" Bai Yuan looked confused.

"When something is dug up, the White City Lord will know at a glance." Qi Lu grinned and said in an official tone.

"Engong, don't laugh at me like that." Bai Yuan saluted Bai Suzhen's body, picked up a hoe and pried open the marble floor, digging up the dirt underneath.

After digging for a while, Bai Yuan said happily: "It's floating soil, there must be something buried in it." ”

Qi Lu smiled slightly, "Keep digging." ”

Bai Yuan dug for a while, and suddenly even the hoe in his hand fell to the ground, and it turned out that there were several corpses buried under the soil.

Qi Lu sighed and said, "If you guessed correctly, they are the residents you said had recently disappeared in Tianwu City. ”

Bai Yuan suppressed the panic in his heart and pulled out the corpses, and found that there were corpses underneath. After being busy for more than half an hour, Bai Yuan actually picked up more than a dozen corpses.

Qi Lu squatted down, forcibly looked at these half-decomposed corpses with nausea, and only stood up after a while and said, "Sure enough, as I expected, I was sucked out of my true qi before I died." ”

"I'm really angry!" Bai Yan's face changed, "If you are so vicious, aren't you afraid of retribution?" ”

"The mind is blinded by greed, and naturally it is not far from hell."

"Then is this murderer still in Tianwu City?"

"Tianwu City is a developed place for him, how can he be willing to leave." The corners of Qi Lu's mouth carried a wisp of confidence: "If I don't properly solve this matter for you, I'm afraid that you, the city lord, won't be able to be a few days." ”

"Engong, what do you mean by that?" Bai Yuan couldn't help but be startled, and felt the cold rise from the bottom of his heart.

Qi Lu looked around and replied unhurriedly: "You robbed him of his position, it's strange that he doesn't retaliate against you." ”

"Ahh Bai Yuan only felt chills all over his body, "If that's the case, then I, the city lord, can give up." ”

"How did you become so timid, this is not the Mr. Bai I am familiar with."

Bai Yuan swallowed his saliva and said: "I'm not afraid of death, but my mana is low, and I don't contribute much to Tianwu City, so I can't reluctantly be the lord of this city, and I can't benefit everyone, so it's better to abdicate and let the virtuous be to someone who has the ability." ”

"Mr. Bai is frank, but I'm afraid that some people are obsessed with this position to the point of madness."

Bai Ran asked urgently: "Who is he?" ”

"Don't worry, he's lurking nearby, watching our every move."

"The enemy is dark and I am clear, I have to think of a way to lure him out."

"I've got a good way to lure her out." The familiar grinning expression appeared on Qi Lu's face again, and he saw him snort softly, his true qi surging out, and he punched directly into the ice coffin containing Bai Suzhen's corpse in front of him!

"Mr. Qi, don't be reckless!" Bai Yuan was shocked, and hurriedly flew forward to block Qi Lu's almost blasphemous action.

But there was a person in the darkness who acted faster than Bai Yuan, and before Qi Lu's fist arrived, a fierce murderous aura had already torn through the void!

"Bang!"

Qi Lu's fist hit the back of an azure knife, and he was shocked, and the terrifying force emitted by this sharp knife condensed by water vapor went down the palm of his hand, actually causing the marble floor under his feet to crack several cracks.

Qi Lu took a few steps back and stood firm, but there was a happy expression in his eyes. "You're here!"

He took a step forward and flew with one hand, the golden rainbow sword appeared again, the dazzling golden light suddenly burst out, and in the sneer, Qi Lu stabbed the sword at the owner of the water knife!

The water knife vanished in the night sky, and the mysterious man was drifting through the darkness at an alarming speed.

As his hand was pinched, a blue light rune array above his head suddenly appeared, and it was like a big mountain pressing straight towards Qi Lu.

Under the influence of this talisman array, Qi Lu's pace of attack became slow, and he felt that the breath in his body also became a little unsmooth.

"Huh!" The situation between friend and foe was unknown, and the cautious Qi Lu did not hesitate to avoid the attack of the rune array. But in the blink of an eye, his whole person seemed to merge with the Golden Rainbow Sword, turning into a dazzling rainbow and flying towards this mysterious person!

Seeing that Qi Lu was fierce, the mysterious man didn't dare to be careless, and with a slight move of his arm, the rune array running in the void suddenly fell down to block Qi Lu's attack!

Several loud noises erupted in the Water Spirit Palace in an instant, and Qi Lu's Golden Rainbow Sword was slashing on top of the rune array, and the rune array even distorted the surrounding space, rebounding a huge shock wave, shaking the entire Water Spirit Palace swaying!

A series of water bubbles surged out of the mysterious man's hand and penetrated into the rune array, and the blue rune array worked again, locking Qi Lu.

Qi Lu saw that the talisman array was pressing again, and he was not afraid at all, he threw his feet on tiptoe, and the people greeted him like a whirlwind.

"Boom!" Brilliant brilliance flashed from Qi Lu's sword to illuminate the entire palace, and he slashed at this talisman array with his sword. This sword slashed into the air, and the talisman array cast by the mysterious man suddenly shook, and then shattered like a real thing!

Bai Yuan, who was watching the battle, was frightened, and he found that the golden rainbow sword in Qi Lu's hand seemed to be able to cut through the void.

"Poof!" As Qi Lu put away his sword in his hand, this wonderful talisman array had disappeared into the void.

"Next, it's my turn!" Qi Lu's hands flew up, and his hands were sealed on his chest. "Tianxuan Taiyi, eliminate demons and evil, break!"

The golden net suddenly opened above Qi Lu's head, and then pounced on the mysterious person hiding in the dark corner.

"This time, you can't run away." Qi Lu turned around and said to Bai Yuan, who was watching the battle, "Now you can uncover the demon net and see who this murderer is." ”
