Volume 3 Chapter 53 Lei Vein is a Demon (Part II)
……
When Xu Mu heard this, he smacked his lips and said:
"If you can't see through it, you have to look closely."
"This is a matter of life and death, and it is also a matter of inheritance of your Heavenly Master Mountain, as a Daoist, of course you have to maintain it well."
Hearing this, Zuo Mingqiu nodded and said:
"Of course I do, but it's not yet time for me to make a decision or give a plan."
"My task now is just to make myself live peacefully until the Heaven Sacrifice Inheritance Conference, and then defeat Zhao Qingdong on it."
Xu Mu shook his head and said seriously:
"Didn't you think that even if you could defeat Zhao Qingdong on that, the position of the Heavenly Master would not be in your hands?"
"In this way, you tell me if you have any henchmen, who are the trustworthy people in each peak, who are the traitors, and who are the people who are sure to support Zhao Qingdong, I will help you find out."
When Zuo Mingqiu heard this, he asked with some vigilance:
"What are you asking for?"
"I just remembered, you haven't answered me yet, what is the purpose of your coming to Tianshi Mountain!"
"Also...... It's not a big purpose."
Xu Mu smacked his lips and hesitated, and then decided not to tell Zuo Mingqiu about Chongming Zhenren's plan first.
"In short, you have to know that I won't harm you, and I won't harm Heavenly Master Mountain."
Xu Mu said, took out the identity token given to him by Taiwu Zhenren from his arms, shook it in front of Zuo Mingqiu's eyes, and said with a smile:
"Look, even the most supportive of you, the hall master of the Law Enforcement Hall, has approved of me and supported me in investigating these things, why can't you trust me?"
Looking at the token in front of him, Zuo Mingqiu's face was obviously stunned, and then he said calmly:
"It's too innocent, it's not necessarily from my side."
Xu Mu was stunned and asked:
"How is it possible, didn't he clearly stand on your side, and asked me to promise not to hurt you, and even signed a contract to give me the token."
Zuo Mingqiu shook his head again:
"Of course it's not what you think, Tai Wuzhen is the peak master of Rakshasa Peak, and he is also the hall master of the Discipline Hall, and he only listens to the words of the Heavenly Master and the head of the entire Heavenly Master Mountain."
"He asked you to promise not to do anything bad to me, not to ask you to help me, but to not want you to cause trouble, at this stage, the relationship between me and Zhao Qingdong is very delicate, as long as there is a little mistake, the entire Heavenly Master Mountain will not be at peace, so he asked you to sign the contract."
"My name was specifically mentioned because I am still a Daozi, a Daozi personally recognized by the Heavenly Master, and he must guarantee my safety."
"As for whether the person he supports after the death of the Heavenly Master Immortal is me or Zhao Qingdong, who knows?"
Zuo Mingqiu said calmly and fell silent.
Xu Mu scratched his head and smacked his lips a little inexplicably: "It's really messy."
Zuo Mingqiu smiled slightly:
"However, although he may not necessarily be on my side in the future, at least for now."
"So his token, it works."
"I'm sure your identity is fine."
Xu Mu was stunned.
Zuo Mingqiu paused, and then said:
"Shengyang Peak, Fu Yuan Immortal Weng, Interception Sect Zhenren, Huanglong Zhenren, and Du'er Zhenren are all my henchmen, and they will definitely support me."
"Lan Qi Zhenren, Fuxian Zhenren, Yuding Zhenren, support Zhao Qingdong."
"Most of the elders of Xianyou Peak are not involved in this matter, and their attitude is not clear, only the Xuandu Archmage has shown his attitude and will support Zhao Qingdong."
"The Southern Spirit Immortal Weng of Rakshasa Peak, the Cihang Dao people of Tianguang Peak, and the Burning Lamp Real People of Biyun Peak are all showing their attitudes to support me, and the remaining real people are not clear in their attitudes."
When Xu Mu heard this, he shook his head and said:
"You said it, just like you didn't."
"I want to know, do you suspect the mastermind behind the assassinations you've encountered before?"
"It's hard to say." Zuo Mingqiu sighed, and then spoke, "It's really not good, you can check the Wuji Dao Master of Biyun Peak, his behavior is very suspicious."
"On the day I was assassinated, there was a domain master at the scene, and he looked like him, but there was no evidence."
"Infinite Dao people." Xu Mu nodded, "I made a note of it."
There was a brief silence.
Zuo Mingqiu took a heavy breath, looked at the dark walls around him, turned his head to look at Xu Mu and asked:
"You don't have anything to ask."
Xu Mu nodded, "Hmm."
Zuo Mingqiu smiled:
"Then let's get out."
"I can't wait for the retreat." Xu Mu nodded.
But in an instant, his expression changed to stunned.
"What are you shaking?" Xu Mu felt a tremor and looked at Zuo Mingqiu in surprise.
The latter's body was trembling inexplicably at this time, and it seemed that even his body was moving.
"I'm not shaking." Zuo Mingqiu was stunned for a moment, then looked at Xu Mu and asked, "What are you shaking?"
Xu Mu and Zuo Mingqiu looked at each other, and then looked at the ground under their feet in silence.
They are located underground, on the edge of a minefield.
Now, something seemed to be moving underground, so even the ground with them was shaking.
Zuo Mingqiu was closer to the epicenter, so he trembled a little more, but now the amplitude of the two was exactly the same.
"What a terrifying thunder element, is it a thunder vein?" Xu Mu sensed it for a moment, and then said with some surprise.
Underground, he sensed an astonishing thunder element, far superior to those terrifying tribulation clouds encountered in the Heavenly Tribulation Zone, the difference between the sea and the lake.
"Underground in the thunder pool, of course, there are only earth veins, or thunder veins." Zuo Mingqiu said.
His brows furrowed, and there was an abnormal movement in the ground of the thunder pool, which was the first time he had encountered such a situation.
"Let's go down and see."
Xu Mu left such a sentence, and the word Gen was printed in the palm of his hand, and then he dived underground, and Zuo Mingqiu followed closely behind.
The two broke through the thick rock and soil layer without any hindrance, like fish swimming in the sea, and in a short time, they descended to a depth of more than 40,000 meters above the ground.
Then, Xu Mu and Zuo Mingqiu came to an empty and boundless underground world, with a height of 100 meters up and down, east and west, north and south, seemingly endless.
I don't know who carved out the space, and looking at the marks on the rocks, it's obviously been a long, long time.
In the middle of this space, there was a thunder vein like a long snake, flashing with terrifying thunder.
What shocked Xu Mu and Zuo Mingqiu was that this thunder vein was moving.
Like a snake, it slid forward, opened its bloody mouth, and devoured another tiny thunder vein.
Then, suddenly, the thunder light on his body swelled, and the width was a few points wider.
"It's not a thunder vein."
Seeing all this, Xu Mu shook his head and said with a solemn face.
"It's a demon."
