CHAPTER XIV
After Qian Ying and his party left, Wu Su rearranged the banquet and invited Hua Xiangrong and the three of them to drink tea.
"You went to Cangzhou this time, did you go to find Wei Cheng?" He asked Su Budu.
"Exactly." Su Budu took a sip of tea and said.
It seems that when Su Budu went to Cangzhou, he didn't tell Wu Su what he was going to do.
"What about this son?" He asked Pei Jin again.
"In Xia Pei Jin, he is a disciple of the Canglan Sect." Pei Jin said without changing his face.
Anyway, the mysterious man didn't say that he was a member of the Canglan Sect in the end, and his identity, even if everyone present knew that it was a lie, he couldn't expose it.
"It turned out to be a disciple of the Canglan Sect, so I don't know who Gongzi is and what kind of Tao he is cultivating?" Wu Su asked.
"It's inconvenient to say this. My teacher once said that before I left the school, I couldn't tell the outside world about my teacher's inheritance. I hope the master will understand. Pei Jin continued to talk nonsense.
"I see, it's understandable." Wu Su is a generous person, so he will not continue to ask.
"Master Wu Su, I still don't know something." Hua Xiangrong said.
"What does the girl want to ask?" Wu Su asked gently.
"If it was just for that painting, they could have asked Li Gongzi to steal it, why did they have to take your life?"
For the sake of a painting, killing someone who is well-known in the cultivation world is not a wise move.
"The girl is smart, just like your grandmother." Wu Su looked at her approvingly.
"Do you know where the two of them came from?" He asked Hua Xiangrong.
"That gentleman may be from the Canglan Sect. As for Miss Qian Ying, Xiangrong doesn't know her origin very well. Hua Xiangrong said thoughtfully.
She couldn't tell Wu Su directly that she thought Qian Ying was a member of the demon clan, after all, most of the monks knew very little about the demon clan, and if she was a person who couldn't cultivate, even if she had Hua Chanyu as a cover, it would cause suspicion.
In addition to human monks, there are also demon cultivators in the world. Compared with the human race, the demon race is more unique in cultivation. They are born with a kind of talent, so their cultivation speed in the early stage is faster than that of humans. But in the later stage, if the demon cultivator wants to go further, it is more difficult than the human race.
Therefore, although the overall strength of the demon race is stronger, because of the fear of the power of the human race, it has always been at peace with the human race.
"You're right, that person is indeed from the Canglan Sect. And that girl Qianying, she is a member of the Phoenix clan of the demon clan. Wu Su said.
The Phoenix? It was one of the most powerful clans of the Demon Clan, and their clansmen were born with Nirvana, and they were born after death. The people of the Phoenix Clan are burned by their Nirvana fire nine times in their lives, and each time it is reborn, and each time it is stronger than the last.
She only guessed that Qian Ying was a demon cultivator, but she really didn't expect it to be so big.
can make the people of the Canglan Sect and the Phoenix Clan join forces, what is there about this Wu Su that attracts them?
"I heard that the people of the Phoenix clan can bathe in Nirvana, and they are also the top existence in the demon clan, I don't know how many times Miss Qian Ying has survived the Nirvana fire?" Su Budu asked.
Their crossing of the Nirvana Fire is the same as that of a human monk who has improved his own cultivation. In other words, crossing the fifth Nirvana fire is equivalent to the path of a human monk, and after crossing it, it is a successful path search and finding one's own demon path.
In the case of the Phoenix Clan, their limit is the eighth Nirvana Fire, and they have never heard of a phoenix that has successfully survived the ninth. For them, crossing the ninth time means ascending.
But the demon ascension seems to be firmly limited by the Heavenly Dao. It is said that once the demon clan had an ancestor who had the ability to penetrate the heavens and the earth to seek ascension, and the end was the same as Feng Yuqing.
"She must have just survived the fifth Nirvana fire." Wu Su said.
That is equivalent to having found his own demon way. Hua Xiangrong nodded secretly. Qian Ying doesn't look very old, and being able to find the way of the demon at this age can be regarded as the genius of their Phoenix clan.
"You haven't said yet, why did they kill you?" Pei Jin reminded.
"One is because of the painting, and the other is because I have what they want." Wu Su said.
What do the people of the Canglan Sect and the Phoenix Clan want?
"It's another painting, in my blue ring, and I promised its owner to protect it with my life." Wu Su continued.
Listening to the blue ring is a natal spirit ring that Wu Su asked the most famous forging master in the world to create for himself, which is connected to his own sea of qi. Unless Wu Su dies, this ring will never be opened.
Many people say that this ring contains the rare treasures and exercises that Wu Su has collected over the years.
That being said, no one has ever done anything to kill people for so many years. First, Wu Su has a high reputation, second, Wu Su has never been bad with others, and third, he has a painting and repair, and the treasures that can be treasured are limited after all.
Therefore, it is not possible to do such a thing that is of little significance and bad for reputation.
This is why Qian Ying and the mysterious person did not directly attack him, but wanted to poison Li Mu and then plant it on Hua Xiangrong's head. In this way, they have a reasonable reason to kill flowers.
It's a pity that this seemingly seamless plan was discovered at the beginning, and it can even be said that someone deliberately let them into the game.
In this way, the strength of that mysterious person will have a rough bottom. He is stronger than Qian Ying, and he is on par with Su Budu with all his strength.
And Su Budu's own strength is not top-notch, mainly because of the white jade flute of King Qin in his hand. This is a first-class Dharma weapon between heaven and earth, ranking third in the list of music cultivation Dharma instruments.
The swords in the burial sword mound of Wanjian Peak are divided into grades, such as Feng Yuqing's Hongchen Sentient Sword, which is the only one. Fei Hong, who has no snow, and Bi Bo of Gu Chaosheng belong to the same class, and Senluo Kendo and Natural Kendo are also inferior. The difference in the strength of the two is mainly in the exercises, and Gu Chaosheng's Blue Sea Qianlan Jue is slightly better.
And Lexiu naturally has its own ranking of magic weapons. An idler made a list of music cultivation instruments, which included the most powerful magic weapons in the music path. The two in Su Budu's hands are on this list.
King Qin's white jade flute ranked third, and Shu monk Lu Qiqin ranked tenth. So Hua Xiangrong was very curious about his origin. If it weren't for Tianyin Valley, where else in the world could there be a Lexiu who could have these two treasures at the same time?
As far as she knew, even the valley master of Tianyin Valley was only the second-ranked Tianyin Pipa and the ninth-ranked Broken Xue Xun.
The Tianyin Pipa is a magic instrument that has been passed down from generation to generation in Tianyin Valley, and the name of Tianyin Valley is based on it. And Broken Xue Xun was found by the current Tianyin Valley Lord by chance.
"I wonder what kind of painting can make you and its owner so important, sir?" Hua Xiangrong asked.
"I'm ashamed to say that although I agreed to him, I don't know what kind of painting this is." Wu Su said with a deep groan.
"Oh? There are still paintings in the world that you don't know about? It's a miracle. Su Budu said in surprise.
Wu Su can be said to be the first painting in the world at present, and has embarked on a path that is difficult to find after the ancients, if even he doesn't know what kind of painting it is, then I'm afraid no one in the world will know.
"Yes, my old friend entrusted it to me on his deathbed, and he didn't say what it was. Later, Gu Chaosheng once asked me for this painting, but I didn't promise him. Wu Su continued.
Gu Chaosheng wants? What kind of peerless rarity is the painting that Gu Chaosheng can get at the expense of his mouth?
"Gu Chaosheng asked me to paint, and I asked him what kind of painting it was, but he didn't say."
"I told him that I had promised the friend to protect the painting with his own life, and that if he wanted to, he would kill me. Naturally, he didn't know how to do it, so he left. Wu Su added.
"I really didn't expect that he would be able to let the people of the Canglan Sect join forces with the Phoenix Clan for the sake of this painting." Wu Su said with a sneer.
"Canglan Sect and Phoenix Clan, what's wrong?" Hua Xiangrong asked.
"A hundred years ago, there was a demon cultivator in the demon clan who went to smash the field on the day of the establishment of the Canglan Sect, and also denounced Gu Chaosheng as a two-faced, hypocritical and treacherous villain."
"That demon cultivator's strength is very strong, on par with Gu Chaosheng. In the end, she was stabbed by Gu Chaosheng and left a palm on him. This demon cultivator is a member of the Phoenix Clan. Wu Su said.
"I don't know what the name of this demon cultivator of the Phoenix Clan is?" Hua Xiangrong then asked.
In fact, she already has the answer in her heart, and she just wants to confirm it again.
"Her name is Ayachi." Wu Su replied.
Hua Xiangrong felt pantothenic acid in her heart, at least she knew now that there was a demon cultivator named Ayaqian in this world, who remembered her.
"Then why did this Ayaqian smash the field of the Canglan Sect?" Su Budu asked.
"Because she and Feng Yuqing are married to Jin Ranchi, they call each other sisters." Wu Su said.
"Back then, Feng Yuqing was the number one sword cultivator in the world, and there were many people who challenged her, and Aya Qian was one of them. It is said that Aya Qian is a genius that their Phoenix clan has not met for hundreds of years, and Feng Yuqing is also a genius. ”
But in the end, Feng Yuqing was better. Aya Qian's heart was convinced, and the two of them also cherished each other, so they married Jin Lan. ”
"After Feng Yuqing's death, Gu Chaosheng miraculously came back from the dead, and Ayaqian felt that Gu Chaosheng had deceived herself and Feng Yuqing, so she made a move on him in a fit of anger."
Wu Su recounted these past events.
"Speaking of which, during the time that Gu Chaosheng disappeared, his skills have indeed improved a lot. Otherwise, how could he be evenly matched with Ayachi. ”
"Then do you know where Ayachi went?" Hua Xiangrong continued to ask.
"I don't know this, she was injured and left that day, and she has never been seen since. Speaking of which, Feng Yuqing is also a strange woman, Aya Qian, and Wuxue, all because she is gone. Wu Su said with emotion.
It's like without Feng Yuqing, there is nothing worth their nostalgia in the cultivation world. They're all gone.
