Chapter 424: How to Anger the Troll King
(Thank you to readers for the "Walk Around" tip.) οΌ
It is impossible to escape from the territory of the demon clan in the mountains to the east, the Taoist priests gathered together to discuss the route, although Xin Youtao was the prince of Xijie, he couldn't help much, and after listening to a few words, he stepped aside and motioned for Mu Xingqiu to follow.
Xin Youtao's offensive talisman was all used up, and there were still some auxiliary talismans left, so he casually sacrificed the talisman and silenced, "Have you decided how to explain the death of Asan Zhao Zhijin?"
"Truth be told, there doesn't seem to be any other choice. Mu Xingqiu knew it was going to be a problem.
"That's right, in the face of high Taoist priests, you can only tell the truth, but there are also skills in telling the truth, the earlier the more credible, the more active the more credible, the earlier is sincere, and the later is a lie. β
Xin Youtao raised his chin and pointed to Asan Liao Huayuan, who had his back to the two of them, "As soon as he returns to Asan, he will immediately sue you, and when you escape from danger and tell the truth, you will not be able to confess the truth, but will be forced to explain the accusations against you." Even if you are a high-ranking Taoist, you will inevitably have preconceived ideas, and you will be very embarrassed when the time comes. β
"I thought about it, but I couldn't stop him, and...... Shen Jiyi may have sued me. β
Since Shen Jiyi screamed in the incense burner, there has been no news from him, the bald man, and Bai Tian, Mu Xingqiu and the others have been wandering among the demon soldiers for several days, and they have never heard of a head being arrested, so they can only hope that they have escaped.
"Then the sooner you respond, the better, now you have to attract the attention of the Giant Demon King, and those of us who have benefited from it are grateful to you, but those who have only heard about this may think that you are deliberately avoiding it, and even say that you are suspected of defecting to the Demon Clan. β
Xin Youtao looked at the Taoist system with the suspicion of the royal family, and he couldn't say that it was accurate every time, but sometimes he did point out the core of the problem, and Mu Xingqiu thought for a while. "I can only ask Daoist Feng, he didn't see the whole process, but he should be willing to say a few words for me, at least let the senior Daoists not rush to make a final decision. β
"You don't say it's appropriate for this kind of thing, I'll go and tell him, you find someone else to escort the people. Xin Youtao volunteered.
"I thought you would escort the people. Mu Xingqiu was a little surprised, although Xin Youtao lacked magic weapons and there were not many talismans left, he could still deal with ordinary demon soldiers, he was the prince of Xijie. This is a great opportunity to win the hearts and minds of the people, and he should not miss it in public or private.
Xin Youtao smiled slightly, "It is actually Xiao Qingtao's idea to come to Xijie Country with you, I always have to make a decision by myself, this time I decided to go with you to meet the Giant Demon King, I have brought all the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and I will write a few talismans later, which can always give you a little help." β
Xin Youtao's writing skills are average, not as a last resort. He prefers to use ready-made talismans.
"Good. Mu Xingqiu didn't refuse, "It's really inconvenient for me to take two captives alone." β
The new monarch Yin Bushen and Yuwang Vadong stood side by side not far away, with a free rope tied to their bodies. Ouyang Qi was in charge of the care, Mu Xingqiu decided to take them with him, the Yu King could be used to threaten the flying demons, and Yin Bushen had a lot of demon magic secrets. Maybe it can make Qi Wushang a little jealous.
This is a practice that will make the uninformed suspicious, and when Mu Xingqiu announced this decision before, Liao Huayuan showed obvious suspicion. I just didn't dare to ask. But Mu Xingqiu didn't have much choice, although the Frost Soul Sword was extremely powerful, he couldn't challenge the demon clan with his own strength, he only hoped to disrupt Qi Wusu's deployment and buy a little time for the Taoist priests and the people to escape.
Xin Youtao walked towards Feng Dongchen, and Mu Xingqiu went to find three female Taoist priests from Chaojing Mountain.
After listening to Mu Xingqiu's request, Zhang Suqin looked cold, and glanced at Feng Dongchen, who was called away by Xin Youtao, "Isn't Wandi Mountain Feng Daoyou really wanting to escort the people? Why didn't he stay?"
"I need Feng Daoyou to explain something for me, only he saw the scene before Zhao Zhijin Daoyou died. Mu Xingqiu didn't make up the reason.
Zhang Suqin pondered for a moment and gave a simple answer, "Okay." With that, he turned around and left, and continued to discuss the route with the Taoist priests.
The other two Daoist priests of Chaojing Mountain naturally had no objections, and Sun Yulu stayed alone and asked in a low voice, "Is that really Qin Lingshuang?"
Mu Xingqiu defeated the seven demon clouds with a beam of light, in the eyes of others, this was his unexpected display of divine might, and only Sun Yulu understood that there must be a reason for his short-term amnesia.
Mu Xingqiu nodded, "Even she doesn't know why." β
"Because it's something that has never happened before. Sun Yulu had already guessed, but was still shocked, "After everything is over, I hope you can go to Ranjing Mountain again, maybe the high Taoist priest of the Lantern Candle Family can explain this qiΔ." β
"I'll go. β
The Taoist priests came together again, and Xin Youtao was the first to speak with a smile, "I'll throw bricks and lead jade, and the sooner the letter to the Taoist system is delivered, the better, so I built Feng Daoyou of Wandi Mountain and Wang Daoyou of Hongshan and set off first." There are a large number of people, and if there are too few people, they can't take care of it, so I built a chaotic Jingshan Zhang Daoyou and led other Daoyou to stay behind to escort. Mu Xingqiu and I went to say hello to the Giant Demon King and see if we could persuade him to stop. β
Most of the Taoist priests had no objections, even if they were a little puzzled by Feng Dongchen's sudden change of mind, they didn't say anything, only Liao Huayuan of Asan was dissatisfied with this, "The matter is serious, I have to return to Asan immediately, I can't stay here." β
"The matter is indeed serious, but the three Taoist friends of Chaojing Mountain have left. Of course, if Liao Daoyou insists on his own opinion, no one can object, but you may have to go on the road alone, and the two Xingluo Daoists who delivered the letter in front can't wait for you, and the Taoist priests who escorted the people in the back probably can't help you. β
Liao Huayuan thought for a while, but he still didn't dare to break through alone, so he snorted softly, "Okay, I'll stay behind for the time being." β
The process of making decisions by the Taoist priests was always unhurried, and once it was reached, the action was very fast, Feng Dongchen and the Wang Taoist priest of Hongshan immediately set off, the latter borrowed a magic weapon, although it was not suitable, but it was not a big problem if it was just flying. The two of them quickly disappeared into the eastern sky, the thin aura of uncleanness affecting their speed, otherwise, they would not have been able to leave the demon clan territory in less than a day.
Xin Youtao wrote a lot of paper talismans on the spot, the grade is not high, but the number is quite a lot, most of them were given to the Taoist priests who escorted the people, in order to make a simple means of transportation and speed up the speed of travel.
Zhang Suqin led the other Taoist priests to join the people. Deng Xian had been standing far away, and at this time he came up, and enthusiastically ran forward and backward for the Taoist priests, and a stone in his heart finally landed.
In addition to Mu Xingqiu and Xin Youtao, there were four others who did not leave, two were captives of the demon clan, Yin Bushen stood calmly, and seemed to be very excited about the upcoming trip, but the feathers on the wings showed signs of messiness. He hadn't shaken off the shock of Demon Cloud's defeat.
The other two are Shen Ji and Ouyang Li.
Ouyang Li regained his true face, walked up and said seriously: "Since we came together, we have to advance and retreat together, if I give up halfway, the master will also scold me." β
As a casual cultivator, Ouyang Qi was brave enough, but he was a little weirdly brave, Xin Youtao smiled: "You will never give up without Yang Qingyin, right?"
Ouyang Li's face turned red all of a sudden. "You, don't be mistaken, I don't mean anything else, Daoist Yang is kind to us, and there are catechumen......"
"I didn't mean anything else. Xin Youtao couldn't help but smile. Cast a meaningful glance at Mu Xingqiu, "It's a good thing to like to repay your kindness, I really hope that other casual cultivators can be like you." β
Shen Ji didn't give any explanation, he stayed as if he was just on the same road. They will part ways at any time, and as for the purpose, he is not going to say. No one else can ask.
When the four of them escorted the two demon captives into the sky, the people's team had not yet set off, Xin Youtao sighed, "I hope that when the people can't keep up, the Taoist priests can be a little patient." If they want to get out of the demon clan's territory, it will take at least ten days, and this is our task. β
There are still demon soldiers guarding the east, Zhang Suqin and the others are enough to deal with it, and what they are most afraid of is that Qi Wushang sent a demon cloud envoy-level chaser.
The group flew south for dozens of miles and landed, and one of Xin Youtao's flying talismans found a demon city before it was shot down, which was originally a city built by humans, but now it has become a gathering place for the demon clan, much larger than the demon stronghold in the northeast.
"How to attract the attention of the Giant Demon King, it's useless to challenge him, he can divide the way, we still can't protect the people of the east. Xin Youtao looked at Mu Xingqiu, he didn't have a good idea about this matter.
"I have a few plans, but none of them are enough...... Spectacular, can't completely irritate the lacquer. Mu Xingqiu has also been thinking of a way.
"The catechumen's ability is so great, he simply destroyed the demon city in front of him, and he can't help but be angry with the giant demon king. Ouyang Li worshiped Mu Xingqiu's spells so much that he thought he was omnipotent.
"The demon clan has been operating in Xijie Country for several years, and the demon city must have strong protection, I'm afraid I won't be able to break through, and Qi Wusupreme won't care about the gains and losses of one city and one place. β
Mu Xingqiu had only seen Qi Wusuo a few times, but he was very impressed, and felt that he was not the kind of demon who could be provoked by lightness.
"Go directly to Baizhang City?" Xin Youtao shook his head first after speaking, it is one thing to attract the main force of the demon soldiers, but it is another thing to take the initiative to send him to death.
Shen Ji listened attentively and did not speak.
Yin Bushen's upper body was bound, and his legs were still free, so he walked over at this time, looking left and right, "I have an idea, I will definitely make Qi Wushang angry half to death, and I can't wait to break you into pieces." β
The four of them cast questioning glances, and Yin Bushen only looked at Mu Xingqiu alone, "This is just an addition to the head I gave you, showing that I am willing to do something for the Demon Venerable Fa, and there will be greater benefits for you in the future." β
"Let's start by how to provoke Lacquer Warriors. Mu Xingqiu said.
Yin Bushen turned to look at the Feather King, "Fa Dong's strength is average, but he was named the Feather King by Qi Wusupreme, why? Because he has a noble background, he is a rare pure-blooded beast demon, and he does not have the three surnames of Qi, Fei, and Hao, and he is still unanimously respected by the beast demons." β
"Are you Jianyì and we killed him and brought all the beast demons here?" Xin Youtao felt that this was indeed an idea.
The Feather King glared angrily, not showing timidity.
Yin Bushen shook his head, "Qi Wushang wishes you could provoke the wrath of the beast demon, my idea is better than this." The Feather King is a six-zhang beast demon, and those half-demons who transform into the shape of a beast are different, the original form of the Feather King is a big bird, this big bird is the king of flying demons, the beast demon noble, it is said that it is the symbol of the entire demon clan, but for more than 100 generations, the back of the Silver Feather family has never carried any human or demon ......"
