Chapter 138: The Secret of the Ice Moon Palace
"The sun of Gaoqiu Country is more sunning than that of Guangyue Country. β
Wiping a handful of sweat from his forehead, Zhao Jingshan couldn't help but complain, although he was a qi practitioner, he still couldn't stand such a poisonous sunshine. But fortunately, Mutuo City is already in sight.
After walking for about a mile, a "help" suddenly attracted Zhao Jingshan's attention.
"This kind of thing can happen in broad daylight, and the people of Gaoqiu Country are really struggling to make a living. β
Zhao Jingshan was full of enthusiasm and immediately rushed into the forest. Soon, he saw a man doing something wrong with a woman.
"Huh?"
Zhao Jingshan was stunned for a moment, because he found out that this man was actually a qi practitioner.
Hearing that someone was coming, the man who was about to commit violence turned around and glared at Zhao Jingshan viciously, and then shouted: "Get out, don't be nosy!"
This man's face was very vicious, which made Zhao Jingshan a little timid.
"Childe, save me!"
The woman wanted to run to Zhao Jingshan's side, but she was dragged by the man's wrist, she was just an ordinary person, and she couldn't break free at all. Seeing this woman, Zhao Jingshan was stunned for a moment, not because of this woman's pity and pleading, but because she was disheveled at this time, half of her breasts were exposed, and coupled with her beautiful appearance, Zhao Jingshan almost couldn't hold it.
"Bastard! Don't let her go soon. β
Zhao Jingshan let out a loud shout and immediately took out his magic sword.
The vicious man looked at the sword in Zhao Jingshan's hand, his face changed, and finally said: "Boy, you wait for me, you dare to spoil the good things of the master, you will suffer it." β
Seeing this man's fierce inwardness, Zhao Jingshan became more confident, and said, "Lang Lang Qiankun, I'm still afraid that you will not succeed as an evil demon!"
"Okay! β
With that, the man left the woman and turned to run away.
The woman seemed to be frightened, and suddenly threw herself into Zhao Jingshan's arms, crying: "Thank you for the grace of Gongzi for saving your life, if it weren't for Gongzi, I, I, I ......"
The woman hit someone with the ball, and Zhao Jingshan's heart was shattered through her chest, so she helped the woman tidy up her clothes, and then put her arm around her shoulders and said, "Girl, don't be afraid, as long as I am here, no one can hurt you." β
The woman looked at Zhao Jingshan affectionately and said, "Son, you are so good, my house is a little remote, you may send me home?"
Zhao Jingshan immediately said: "It is incumbent!"
The two left the forest, but the woman took Zhao Jingshan to the opposite direction of Mutuo City, Zhao Jingshan was a little surprised, and asked, "Isn't the girl's house in the city?"
The woman nodded, and Zhao Jingshan didn't ask any more.
After walking for a while, a group of six people, two men and four women, came to meet them. The figures of the four women deeply attracted Zhao Jingshan, even if their faces looked a little ordinary, he still couldn't help but glance back, only to find that the six people suddenly stopped.
"Senior brother, what's wrong?"
These six people are Lu Xiaoan and others who hid in Gaoqiu Country, and the four big beauties are simply not too eye-catching, so Lu Xiaoan let them disguise themselves.
Lu Xiaoan didn't answer Xiao Lu'er, but retreated back and looked at the woman beside Zhao Jingshan. As a monk, he had a very good memory, and in the blink of an eye, he noticed that this woman was somewhat familiar, and after thinking about it carefully, he remembered it.
The woman looked at Lu Xiaoan stunned for a moment, and then her face changed drastically, revealing a frightened expression.
Lu Xiaoan smiled and said, "It seems that you still remember me." β
As he spoke, Lu Xiaoan looked at Zhao Jingshan beside the woman again.
It is said that the face is born from the heart, and Lu Xiaoan found that Zhao Jingshan was quite kind, so he asked: "Are you all the way with her?"
Since Lu Xiaoan and the others had all cultivated the Ice Breath Technique, Zhao Jingshan thought that they were all ordinary people, so he frowned and said, "What does this have to do with you?"
Seeing that Zhao Jingshan had the intention of defending herself, the woman immediately pointed at Lu Xiaoan and said, "Childe, he is a bad person, you kill him quickly!"
As soon as this woman said this, Lu Xiaoan knew that Zhao Jingshan and her were not all the way, so he sneered: "The dwarf you used to be attached to is much taller than him. β
The woman is not stupid, although she is not a monk, but she has been following the monk and probably knows the realm, remembering that the short man she followed before cultivated to a higher realm than Zhao Jingshan, but she never came back after following Lu Xiaoan out of the city. So, in Zhao Jingshan's surprised eyes, she knelt down to Lu Xiao'an.
"Please spare me, I've been forced too. β
The woman cried while begging, and wanted to hug Lu Xiaoan's leg, but was kicked away by Xiao Lu'er gently.
"Senior brother, what's going on?"
Lu Xiaoan sneered: "This woman is in collaboration with the monks and specializes in harming people. β
Zhao Jingshan was taken aback, and he was a little reluctant to believe it, but the woman's words made him understand that he was still too naΓ―ve.
"I don't want to, Childe, but I'm a weak woman, what else can I do if I don't listen to them?"
What this woman said also made sense, so Lu Xiaoan said: "Okay, take me to see the monk behind you, I won't kill you." β
Lu Xiaoan is not a chivalrous warrior, but since he has met, there is no reason to let it go, and with the strength of several of them, as long as they don't provoke the Ice Moon Palace, they can go sideways in Gaoqiu Country.
Zhao Jingshan was a little angry, so he said, "I'll go too!"
Lu Xiaoan glanced at him, neither agreed nor refused, and let him follow.
On the way, Lu Xiaoan asked casually: "What kind of cultivation is the person you are attached to this time?"
The reason why he is careless is because he doesn't care about the other party's cultivation, and it is definitely impossible to rely on a mortal woman to harm people's cultivation.
However, the woman's words stunned him.
"I heard that it is the Qi Sea Realm, and there are quite a few people under her. β
"Qi Sea Realm?"
This made Lu Xiaoan very puzzled.
Glancing back at Zhao Jingshan, Lu Xiaoan said, "How can a Qi Sea Realm cultivator harm a Qi cultivator?"
The woman hurriedly explained: "She didn't do anything, she only sent us out to trick people back." β
"You guys?"
Lu Xiaoan grasped a key word.
The woman said: "I think a lot of people want me to be forced by her to deceive people like this, and use all kinds of methods, as long as I deceive people." β
Lu Xiaoan noticed that this time things seemed to be different from the last time.
At this time, Hongying suddenly asked, "Will the person who deceived him be killed?"
The woman shook her head and said, "No, she will bring a neck band to these people, and then lock them up, and then send them away when there are more people." β
"Neck bands?"
Lu Xiaoan stopped suddenly, because the neck band reminded him of the Ice Moon Palace.
"Wouldn't it, it really has something to do with the Ice Moon Palace?"
Lu Xiaoan muttered in his heart.
Seeing that Lu Xiaoan's face was different, Zhou Zhaoyue asked, "What's wrong?"
Lu Xiao'an briefly talked about the matter of the Shui clan and said, "This mana-suppressing neck hoop should be unique to the Ice Moon Palace. β
Zhou Zhaoyue's expression also became serious.
Xiao Lu'er also glanced back at Zhao Jingshan and asked, "But what is the Ice Moon Palace doing when you catch these qi practitioners?"
The woman said: "Not only those who practice the Qi realm, but also those who pass through the pulse realm." β
Lu Xiaoan shook his head, he didn't understand why, but Hongying said, "Maybe it's for cultivation." β
Lu Xiaoan and the others were stunned, and they all turned their heads to look at Hongying.
Hongying said: "Isn't it strange? there are a lot of demon cultivators who use monks to cultivate or break through the realm, don't you all know?"
Hongying is a person from the Holy Demon Sect, and it is normal for her to be more knowledgeable than Lu Xiao'an, and there is indeed no such thing in Guangyue Kingdom.
Lu Xiaoan glanced at Hongying, but didn't speak, although he hated the Ice Moon Palace very much, but he felt that the Ice Moon Palace should not be a Demon Sect, otherwise how could it stand in the Gaoqiu Country?
"What now?"
Although Zhou Zhaoyue's cultivation is the highest, he is used to asking Lu Xiaoan when he encounters things.
Lu Xiaoan thought for a while and said, "If it is really to break through the realm as Hongying said, then it is most likely the Palace Master of the Ice Moon Palace, the Ice Moon Palace is comparable to the Lintian Palace, and the Palace Master of the Ice Moon Palace must also be the peak powerhouse of the Infant Transformation Realm." β
Hongying nodded and said, "It's likely to be the case, so we'd better leave it alone, provoking the Ice Moon Palace in the Gaoqiu Kingdom is much more dangerous than provoking the Xia Sword Sect in the Guangyue Kingdom." β
Hongying's words made Zhou Zhaoyue frown subconsciously, but after thinking about it, she didn't say anything.
Zhou Zhaoyue said: "This is a great secret, no wonder it has to be done secretly." β
Lu Xiaoan muttered: "The Ice Moon Palace and our Guangyue Kingdom are not in harmony, if their palace master breaks through the Transformation God Realm, it will undoubtedly be a disaster for the Guangyue Kingdom. β
Lu Xiaoan's head was a little heavy, because the lord of Guangyue Country was Gu Linghua and his woman, so Lu Xiaoan had to think about Guangyue Country when he thought about it.
At this time, Xiao Lu'er asked, "What's the use of the Ice Moon Palace Palace Master catching these people back?"
Hongying smiled, but asked rhetorically, "Do you know why there are no God Realm powerhouses in these places around your Guangyue Kingdom?"
Lu Xiaoan and Xiao Lu'er shook their heads, and Zhou Zhaoyue said, "I heard Master say that it seems to be related to the Heaven and Earth Lingqi. β
Hongying asked again: "Then do you know why so many strong people are stuck at the peak of the Infant Transformation Realm?"
This Zhou Zhaoyue is not very clear, and now that she has also turned into a baby, she is also very interested in this issue, so she looks straight at Hongying.
Hongying was a little proud, and after enjoying the feeling in the center of her vision for a while, she said in Lu Xiaoan's fierce gaze: "Because of the divine soul, the key to breaking through the divine realm is in the divine soul." β
This is nonsense, so Lu Xiaoan said in a deep voice: "Make it clear." β
Hongying hurriedly said: "It is difficult for the divine soul to take the initiative to strengthen, and it can only slowly become stronger with the growth of cultivation, but if the concentration of heaven and earth spiritual qi is not enough, the growth rate of the divine soul will not be able to keep up with the growth rate of cultivation, so it will be stuck at the peak of the infant realm." β
Xiao Lu'er asked strangely: "Isn't there a single genius whose soul is very strong?"
"Yes!"
Hongying knew that Xiao Lu'er was very talented, so she said: "But there are very few, less than the innate law body, and the rest of the people, whether they are geniuses or ordinary people, are actually about the same in strength." β
"Is that so?"
Xiao Lu'er seemed a little lost.
Lu Xiaoan asked, "Is there a way to enhance the divine soul?"
Hongying said: "Naturally." β
Xiao Lu'er hurriedly asked, "What is it?"
Hongying said: "Except for some treasures, the methods of enhancing the divine soul are all top secret, and I don't know." β
Afterwards, Hongying glanced at Zhao Jingshan, who was not far away, and whispered to Lu Xiaoan: "But as far as I know, the souls of people who cultivate the Heavenly Demon Forging Body are relatively strong. β
"Oh?"
Lu Xiaoan and Xiao Lu'er were happy at the same time and asked, "Why?"
Hongying shook her head and said, "I don't know about this." β
After saying this, Lu Xiaoan suddenly asked, "Could it be that the Ice Moon Palace Palace Master captured these people to enhance his divine soul?"
Hongying nodded and said: "There are some evil methods that can absorb the souls of others to enhance themselves, but they are also very harmful, even evil cultivators will not try it easily, and the probability of success is not too high." β
"Damn it!"
Lu Xiaoan had long known that the Palace Master of the Ice Moon Palace was not a good thing, but he didn't expect it to be so cruel.
Hongying was startled for a moment, and said to Lu Xiao'an: "You don't want to meddle in things, this is Gaoqiu Country, and if the good thing of the Palace Master of the Ice Moon Palace is ruined, we are afraid that it will be difficult for us to return to Guangyue Country alive." β
Zhou Zhaoyue said: "Then we will return to Guangyue Country immediately after saving people?"
Hongying glanced at Bai Zhou Zhaoyue, but remembered that Zhou Zhaoyue's cultivation tried very hard to control his expression, and then said: "We have come all the way to kill the four people of the Holy Demon Sect without concealment, I believe that our whereabouts have been known, and we are likely to face the encirclement of the Xia Jian Sect when we go back." β
This Lu Xiaoan also understood, but for the sake of the Blood Qi Pill, he had to expose himself and Zhou Zhaoyue, and he had never thought of returning to Guangyue Country in a short period of time, so he had no fear, because it was impossible for the Xia Jian Sect to run to Gaoqiu Country to arrest them.
Seeing that Lu Xiaoan was still hesitating, Hongying said again: "Think about it, how many souls are needed to break through the God Transformation Realm, it doesn't matter if you save so many people." β
"Huh?"
Hongying's words reminded Lu Xiao'an, so he said, "You guys go to the city and wait for me, and I'll go to see the situation alone." β
Hongying was depressed, and wanted to say something but was interrupted by Lu Xiaoan.
"I'm not a saint, I won't force anything to do it, and if I can't save it, there's no reason to give up on them. β
In fact, saving people is secondary, Lu Xiaoan must confirm whether this matter is what they think, if it is, then he must find a way to inform Gu Linghua.
Zhou Zhaoyue said: "Then be careful, we are waiting for you in Mutuo City." β
Lu Xiaoan had such a wealth of experience in dealing with Qi Sea Realm cultivators, and now his cultivation was much higher, so Zhou Zhaoyue was not very worried.
Lu Xiaoan nodded, and then left with the woman alone.
Zhao Jingshan was stunned for a moment, and found that Lu Xiao'an's speed was so fast that he couldn't catch up at all, and Zhou Zhaoyue and the others didn't pay any attention to his plans, so they could only walk towards Mutuo City by themselves.
Under the guidance of the woman, Lu Xiaoan came to a small mountain, and the woman pointed and said, "Those people are locked behind the mountain." β
Lu Xiaoan thought about it and felt that it was very inconvenient to take this woman with him, so he knocked her unconscious with one palm, and then climbed up the hill alone.
Looking down, Lu Xiaoan really saw a group of people locked in a huge cage, both men and women, but most of them were men, and they all wore neck bands around their necks, exactly the same as the ones Shui Muyuan and the others wore before.
"Sure enough, it's someone from the Ice Moon Palace!"
Next to the cage, there were two men from the Tongmai Realm who were in charge of guarding these people, and a female cultivator was cultivating from a distance, her cultivation Lu Xiao'an couldn't see through, she must be a Qi Sea Realm cultivator.
However, Lu Xiaoan didn't plan to do it now, he just came to confirm whether the Ice Moon Palace was doing the trick, and now it seems that it can almost be confirmed.
The reason why this is extra is because the target is too big if you act together, Lu Xiaoan doesn't dare to guarantee that all the people he saves are good people, and if he sells them backhanded, it will be too wronged, so Lu Xiaoan will come to check alone.
Now that it is confirmed that it is someone from the Ice Moon Palace, Lu Xiaoan planned to go back and call his senior sister to save people, but he was just about to leave, but he saw that the woman who was knocked out by him was carried here by a qi practitioner.
"Oops!"
Lu Xiaoan was a little depressed, but it wasn't that he wasn't vigilant enough, but that there was no place nearby to hide this woman, so he could only say that he was unlucky.
"Hey, what's wrong with this?"
Seeing the Qi Practitioner coming, a Tongmai Realm monk in charge of guarding asked.
"We caught a guy, but when I came over, I found her unconscious outside. β
"Huh?"
The female cultivator of the Ice Moon Palace, who was cultivating in the distance, opened her eyes, jumped over here, frowned and asked, "Where did you find her?"
The Qi Practitioner said: "It's on the other side of the mountain." β
"Rubbish!"
The female cultivator of the Ice Moon Palace cursed, and then said, "This place has been exposed, and these people must be sent away now." β
The two Tongmai Realm monks immediately opened the cage and called all the people inside to come out.
Lu Xiaoan was a little depressed, these people were leaving, it would be too late for him to go back and call Zhou Zhaoyue now, if he really wanted to look for these people everywhere, he would probably be discovered by the Ice Moon Palace.
"What should I do? Do you want to save them?"
Seeing that the people in the cage came out one after another, there were more than 20 people in total, Lu Xiaoan was really a little unbearable, so he couldn't care so much, and directly took out his fangs.
As long as the cultivation of this Ice Moon Palace female cultivator is not too high, the fangs can seriously injure her. And Mutuo City is a small border city, and there are basically no high-level monks, so it is unlikely that the Ice Moon Palace will send too powerful people over.
Based on this analysis, Lu Xiaoan did not hesitate, and shot the female cultivator of the Ice Moon Palace when he turned his back on him.
The bullet pierced through the heart, and the female cultivator of the Ice Moon Palace was killed directly without the slightest reaction, which made Lu Xiaoan more or less surprised.
"It is estimated that it has only been a short time since I broke through the Qi Sea Realm!"
"Bang!"
After the female cultivator of the Ice Moon Palace threw herself on the ground, the gunshots followed, and everyone was startled, and then they saw a person descending from the sky, holding a knife and slashing at them.
The two Tongmai Realm monks hurriedly took out magic weapons to deal with it, but unfortunately, one of them was an eighth-layer cultivator of the Tongmai Realm, and one was a fifth-layer cultivator of the Tongmai Realm, so they couldn't stop Lu Xiao'an's knife at all.
The monks of the eighth layer of the Tongmai Realm were split in half by Lu Xiao'an with a knife along with the magic weapon, and the monks of the fifth layer of the Tongmai Realm were immediately frightened. Lu Xiaoan couldn't wait for him to come back to his senses, and with a wave of the horizontal knife, he cut off his head.
"Rao ......"
The qi practitioner wanted to beg for mercy, but before he could kneel, Lu Xiaoan kicked him away, and Lu Xiaoan kicked him mercilessly, he had absolutely no chance of living.
