Chapter 175 Returning to the Peacock Palace, Dao Lord Is Fighting

The two of them were lying next to each other. The red glow on the ghostly beauty's face had not faded, and she said infatuatedly:

"It's all the beauty's fault. We can't let the husband get what he wants."

"It doesn't matter!"

Lu Chen smiled and said comfortingly: "When I have enough time in the future, let me experience it. Three years, one thousand and ninety-five days and nights, I am looking forward to it more and more."

"Hmm~~"

The ghostly beauty was embarrassed, but her hands became tighter and tighter. She felt that Lu Chen was about to make a move again, and said in panic:

"No, no, no."

"What, don't stop?"

Lu Chen ignored him completely and started teasing her again while it was still dark.

At noon, the food was served and the four of them sat around the table. Meng Yao ate with gusto. The thrush glanced between Lu Chen and the ghost beauty with an envious expression. Lu Chen helped Meng Yao pick up a river crab and said:

"Have you settled the affairs of Hualou? We've settled the matter, and we'll be on our way today."

"Um!"

The ghost beauty nodded and explained:

"That's pretty much what I've been told. I plan to let Huamei take over the flower building."

"Sister~~"

The thrush looked reluctant and pouted:

"I still want to leave with my sister and leave the flower house to Xiaoxiao, okay?"

"Xiao Xiao is still a first-level Qi practitioner and cannot convince the public."

"Hmph~~"

The thrush snorted softly and turned his head away. The ghost beauty could only console him: "If we all leave, who will help the empress? When Xiaoxiao enters the second realm and becomes a magician, you can hand over the flower house to her." Give it to her, is that okay?"

"All right!"

The thrush was dejected for a while.

When Lu Chen saw that the ghost beauty had explained the matter clearly, he didn't interrupt and started eating. Then he stayed in Linjiang City for half a day. In the evening, with Su Xiaoxiao's resentful eyes and the thrush's reluctant farewell, Lu Chen took the ghost beauty with him. Step on the purple jade flying boat and go upstream.

The moonlight is bright and clear.

The river current is turbulent.

In the hazy night, Lu Chen and the ghost beauty sat side by side, admiring the moonlight and the river scenery. Seeing that it was getting late, he pulled the ghost beauty into the cabin. Soon, the purple jade flying boat began to sway, and there was a faint sound on the river. echo.

Like a song.

Weeping and complaining.

Two days later, the ghostly beauty was resting in the cabin. Lu Chen stood on the bow of the ship and was practicing. Eighteen sword stars were surrounding his body, flying around. After a long time, Lu Chen put away the sword stars, looked at the light curtain in front of him, and stretched out his hand to tap. :

"Expand!"

[Tianxing Sword Technique Upgrade Conditions]:

【1】: Three months of practice (achieved!)

【2】: Thirty spiritual stones (achieved!)

[Name]: Lu Chen

[Spell]: Mastery of Tianxing Sword Technique (can be upgraded!) +

Originally, I didn’t have enough spiritual stones, so I had to get thirty spiritual stones from Ghost Beauty. After all, I still met the upgrade conditions. I didn’t hesitate anymore:

"upgrade!"

"Ugh~~"

The sound of the sword suddenly sounded loudly, and it gradually subsided after a long time.

The authentic-level Heavenly Star Sword Controlling Technique has been successfully upgraded from mastery to [Dacheng]. The number of sword stars that can be refined has also increased from twenty-eight to one hundred and eight. The [Thousand Stars Eternal Array] can be deployed at a distance. It's not far either.

A few more days passed.

Lu Chen and the ghost beauty walked out of the cabin hand in hand, and saw an ancient Qingtian tree hundreds of feet high in the distance. It was the third-order Qingtong ancient tree. The ghost beauty beside him patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief:

"It seems that the queen is fine."

After listening to Lu Chen's story about Imperial Master Zhang Henian, what Gui Meiren was most afraid of was that he would have a conflict with the Peacock Empress when he went north.

Lu Chen smiled and comforted:

"I often communicate with her. She is a big demon and knows how powerful it is. Even if Zhang Henian targets the Peacock Palace, she can run away in advance. What's more, this is the border of Shuozhou. I know Zhang Henian's character well. Shuozhou's aura of calamity. He has collected enough, there is no need to go to war."

"That's good."

The ghost beauty nodded, completely relieved.

Meng Yao's little hand on her shoulder was holding the underworld tool [Scrolling Scroll], standing on tiptoe to look around. She couldn't wait to meet her group of friends, so she urged:

"Brother, let's hurry up~"

"good!"

Lu Chen laughed loudly, waved his sleeves to put away the purple jade flying boat, and flew towards the ancient Qingtong tree with the ghost beauty and Meng Yao's sword. After approaching, he quickly climbed up, and soon flew up to the crown of the ancient tree, landing in front of the Peacock Palace.

"Niuniu, let's go quickly!"

"Ho~~"

As soon as Lu Chen sheathed his sword, Meng Yao took Hu Niu and the two-eared messenger to play with his friends. They disappeared in a flash. The Peacock Queen's eyes were everywhere on the ancient bronze tree. Lu Chen was not worried about Meng Yao's safety. Waiting for the report from the gatekeeper, the ghost beauty walked straight to the Peacock Palace.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw a colorful peacock flying over and transforming into a familiar figure.

"Greetings, empress!"

The ghost beauty quickly let go of Lu Chen's big hand and knelt down to the Peacock Empress. The Peacock Empress had personally enlightened her. In the ghost beauty's heart, the Peacock Empress was considered a close relative. In fact, she was no different from her biological parents, but monsters didn't pay attention to these things.

There is only dignity and inferiority.

No closeness.

Lu Chen knew this very well, so he didn't stop him.

"Get up!"

The Peacock Empress' face softened slightly and she complained to Lu Chen:

"Having been there for more than half a year, I happened to provoke my beautiful swallowtail butterfly again."

Lu Chen touched his nose and said with a smile:

"We are all a family, why should we meet outsiders?"

"You are still reasonable, ah, let me go~~"

The Peacock Empress glared at Lu Chen. Before the other party could get angry, Lu Chen stepped in first and held him on her shoulders. Ignoring the other party's struggle, she walked towards the depths of the Peacock Palace. Then she suddenly turned back and looked at the man who had just stood up. The ghostly beauty laughed and said:

"Come on, let me show you my majesty today!"

As he said that, he pulled the ghost beauty and ignored the dumbfounded waitresses around him. He strode forward, stepped on the red carpet, passed through the heavy curtains, and walked all the way to the Peacock Queen's palace.

In the blink of an eye, another three days passed. Three days later, the door of the Peacock Palace opened wide, and the Peacock Empress began to hold a banquet. It was regarded as a farewell banquet for Lu Chen, and it was also regarded as a farewell banquet. Lu Chen also saw with his own eyes the countless big and small demons in the Peacock Palace. After the banquet, , Lu Chen returned to the palace with Peacock Empress and Ghost Beauty.

After some tossing, Lu Chen held the two of them in his arms and asked:

"The catastrophe is approaching. Do you really not want to leave with me?"

"No!"

The Peacock Empress shook her head seriously, with reluctance in her eyes, and explained:

"In more than two years, the ancient Qingtong tree will bear fruit. I've been guarding it for decades and it's about to be harvested. How can I leave so easily."

"Can't transplant?"

"Yes, yes, it is possible, but I am worried that it will affect the production of [Qingtong Fruit]. The ancient Qingtong tree blooms once every hundred years and bears fruit once every hundred years. There are only three fruits in two hundred years. If it is delayed because of this, there may even be less or no fruit." The loss will be too great, so to be on the safe side, it’s better not to transplant for the time being.”

"All right."

Lu Chen didn't try to persuade her any more. Anyway, there were still eleven years before the great catastrophe. It wouldn't hurt to wait for two years. He looked at the ghost beauty again: "Where's you?"

"I"

The ghost beauty showed hesitation, her eyes glanced back and forth at Peacock Empress and Lu Chen, she lowered her head and said:

"I'll stay too."

"All right!"

If Lu Shenwei said more, he understood the ghost beauty's concerns.

Even if the ghost beauty follows him back to Nishui Longtan, I'm afraid there will be a lot of inconvenience. After all, Lu Chen won't be able to stay long after he goes back. He still needs to go to the north to bring Duoduo from the Witch Mountain back to him. Come on, it's better to let the ghost beauty stay at ease in the Peacock Palace.

"In that case, you may as well stay in the Peacock Palace. I will pick you up in two years."

"Hmm~~"

"Two years."

The two women nodded, feeling extremely reluctant to part with each other for a moment. The three people's eyes met. Needless to say, it was quite a storm!

Early the next morning, Lu Chen left the Peacock Palace.

After finding Meng Yao and Huniu, he no longer held back, flew down the ancient Qingtong tree with his sword, and then returned all the way north on the purple jade flying boat. Soon after, he finally returned to the border of Yuluanzhou against the Akutagawa River, because the Shence Army had just passed through. Soon, the journey was uneventful, and not even a spiritual beast was encountered.

A few days later, Lu Chen entered the Qingcang Mountains.

Not long after, he saw the 9,874-foot-long [Buxu Immortal Mountain] from a distance. His expression suddenly changed and he muttered:

"A vast calamity is coming. In addition to the Tribulation Immortal City, this Immortal Mountain may also be a place of refuge."

He remembered that when he met Dao Lord Qingxu, he was carrying two cities up the mountain. From this point of view, this fairy mountain could probably block the vast catastrophe. It was a pity that he could not use any magic power on the mountain. Even his [Pluto Body] 】Can't get out.

Not very friendly to monks.

If a vast catastrophe comes, there is no harm in avoiding it for a while, but if the vast catastrophe does not retreat for a long time, I am afraid that I will be trapped and die on the fairy mountain, so this fairy mountain can only be used as a backup, not as a reliance.

After thinking about this clearly, Lu Chen was more optimistic about Zhang Henian's ability to refine the [Transcending Tribulation Immortal City]. He was worthy of being an elder of the Tai Dao Sect, and his background was profound.

"It would be great if I could get the refining method from the Tribulation Immortal City."

Lu Chen sighed quietly, shook his head, and sailed towards the fairy mountain in the flying boat. Before he got close, he saw white sails on the river, flags waving, and warships moored on the Akutagawa River, blocking the way forward.

It is Shence Army.

Lu Chen looked shocked and said to himself:

"No way, are you going to attack Buxu Immortal Mountain?"

"No, no!"

Lu Chen shook his head again and muttered:

"Now is not the period of the Immortal Crossing, but we are facing a huge disaster. There is no need for Dao Lord Qingxu and Zhang Henian to fight to the death. Moreover, the Shence Army has not taken action. I am afraid there is another reason. By the way, Dao Lord Qingxu is... At the head of the Qingcang Mountain Range, if the two of them meet, they will probably be at war with each other."

If Zhang Henian wants to collect the earthly calamity energy in Yuluanzhou, he will light a beacon in Yuluanzhou, and he doesn't know who he will attack.

"The corpse puppet is still"

Lu Chen no longer thought about it, and the flying boat rushed directly towards the Pingbo warship.

"Stop!"

As loud shouts rang out, a warship stood out and blocked the way of the purple jade flying boat. There were soldiers arrayed on the ship, and a [Shence*Zhao Ziying] flag was fluttering in the wind.

"They are also considered acquaintances."

The purple jade flying boat stopped and Lu Chen said loudly:

"General Zhao, please come forward and see me!"

As the voice fell, Zhao Wuji appeared on the bow of the Pingbo warship. When he saw Lu Chen, he was stunned for a moment, and he laughed and said, "It turns out to be Brother Lu. We have misunderstood each other. We are all our own, so we still don't get out of the way!"

Lu Chen stood on the purple jade flying boat and clasped his fists:

"Thank you!"

"you are welcome!"

The two exchanged a few words, and the Pingbo warship moved out of the way. Zhao Wuji watched Lu Shen join the fleet on his flying boat, rubbed the beard on his face, and muttered:

"Come when you want, leave when you want, this guy is quite at ease."

After Lu Chen integrated into the fleet, he did not rush around. He raised his hand and released a communication talisman. Soon, he saw a big rooster flying over from a distance, landing on the bow of the ship, and transforming into a rooster-crowing mountain master in red robes. As soon as they met He was surprised and said:

"I thought you wouldn't come back. By the way, where is your Taoist companion?"

"Something happened."

Lu Chen said perfunctorily, unwilling to talk more, and said with a wry smile:

"Actually, I really didn't plan to come back. I happened to meet him and came over to see the excitement. I will leave soon."

"As you wish."

The Lord of Jiming Mountain waved his hand and said nonchalantly:

"If you are Master Tongxuan, I can't make the decision. Since you are in the Dharma Realm, it doesn't matter. Whenever you want to come back, I will help you eliminate the falsehood."

"Thank you, senior, for taking care of me!"

Lu Chen bowed seriously, and the Lord of Cock Crying Mountain was given the title [Pleiades of the Sun]. Even if he joined the [Fazi Camp], he still had a high status. He didn't need to run around to contribute, which was much better than other Tongxuan masters. He pointed out. Pointing to the fairy mountain, he asked:

"How is this going?"

"What can happen, let's have a fight between two Dao Lords."

"Fighting?"

"no!"

The Lord of Jiming Mountain rolled his eyes and explained:

"When you reach this level, you can't just fight. Two people are playing chess at the foot of the mountain. One is slower than the other, and they lose every piece in half a day. They have been playing for three days and three nights. I can't see any tricks. Do you want to see it? If it’s fun, come with me.”

"That's fine!"

Lu Chen put away the flying boat, and two green snakes shrunk to the thickness of his fingers sprang out from the water and flew into his sleeves. He took Huniu back to his left hand and followed the master of Jiming Mountain to fly forward with his sword.

These actions of his could not be concealed from the owner of Cockcrow Mountain. The other party shook his rooster head and muttered:

"I can't see through you anymore."

"."

Lu Chen smiled perfunctorily and did not explain. He followed the other party and flew out of the Akutagawa River to the foot of Buxu Immortal Mountain. He saw a stone platform at the foot of the mountain. The broken-arm Taoist Lord Qingxu and Zhang Henian were sitting opposite each other. Sure enough, they were on the platform. Chess, behind the two of them stood a large group of people, at least dozens of them.

Among them, the one with the lowest cultivation level is also the Zongfa Immortal Master, and the number of Master Tongxuan can be counted on both hands.

"What a big scene!"

The arrival of the two people did not attract anyone's attention. Whether they understood it or not, everyone's eyes were on the small chessboard. Lu Chen looked at it for a few times, but he couldn't see any clue at all, and he didn't. Having studied Go, it can be said that I know nothing about it.

After staring for a while, I couldn't tell why I came, but I didn't leave either.

Just close your eyes and rest your mind, waiting for the results.

The confrontation between the two Tao Lords seemed peaceful, but it was related to the future changes in the situation of the entire Yuluan Prefecture. Lu Chen was in Yuluan Prefecture, so he could not stay out of the matter, but at least he had to be an insider.
