"The thing is like this. In fact, Princess Yueni of the Lushan Dynasty was not elected, but another woman named Zhong Xiu was elected. But at the last moment, this woman suddenly offered to voluntarily give up her qualification to become an immortal. "Xu Luzi explained.

"That's right, the Immortal Ascension Ceremony is held every six months, not to mention the strict requirements on the candidates, and there are only six places, which is simply one in a million. Once selected, there will be a chance to ascend to the sky and become a legendary immortal , Someone was selected, but gave up voluntarily. Once this matter got out, it caused quite a stir in the entire Tianyu City, and even the Lushan Dynasty." Added Shopkeeper Tian.

Hearing this, Shi Mu's face changed slightly, and he stared blankly ahead, with mixed feelings in his heart.

The reason why Zhong Xiu did this may not be known to others, but he can vaguely guess it in his heart.

How could Zhong Xiu not know that he was wanted by the Tiandao arrest warrant jointly issued by the two forces of Tongtian Immortal Sect and Tianmozong, and with his character, he would naturally not sit idly by...

Thinking of this, Shi Mu couldn't help feeling an inexplicable emotion in his heart, and his mood also changed unconsciously.

"Xiu'er, why are you so stupid..." he murmured to himself.

"Could it be that Fellow Daoist Mu knows this woman Zhong Xiu?" Xu Luzi asked after observing the change in Shi Mu's expression.

Shopkeeper Tian at the side also looked at Shi Mu when he heard the words.

"Not bad." Shi Mu didn't deny it.

"Hehe, I didn't expect that the girl who made such an astonishing act was actually a friend of Fellow Daoist Mu." Xu Luzi smiled slightly.

"Master Xu, I wonder if your Tianwu Chamber of Commerce can help you find out where that Zhong Xiu is now?" Shi Mu suddenly raised his head and asked.

"Oh, are you just investigating that Zhong Xiu's whereabouts?" Xu Luzi asked.

"Let's do this for the time being. We'll talk about it when we find her trace. Maybe there are other things I need to ask you in the future." Shi Mu thought about it and said.

"Okay. Usually, my Tianwu Chamber of Commerce needs at least a thousand spirit stones to find someone. Today, I will make an exception and count as five hundred spirit stones for Fellow Daoist Mu." Xu Luzi said.

Shi Mu waved his hand without hesitation. Five middle-grade spirit stones appeared on the table.

"Okay, we will give you an answer as soon as possible." Xu Luzi said, making a gesture to signal shopkeeper Tian to put away the spirit stone.

"That's the case. Then I'll wait for your good news." Shi Mu stood up.

"Mu Daoyou, I haven't read the results of the Demon Yang Ceremony." Xu Luzi pointed to another jade talisman.

"Oh, I almost forgot." Shi Mu smiled slightly, took the jade talisman, and imitated Xu Luzi just now. Infused with a ray of mana.

The jade talisman suddenly lit up with white light and condensed into a picture, on which six figures emerged, four men and two women.

Shi Mu swept his eyes and frowned.

Among the six people, Jin Xiaochai was not seen, which was beyond his expectation.

"Huh!"

His eyes widened suddenly, and he looked at the gray-robed boy on the far right. This person looked extremely young, probably only seventeen or eighteen years old.

"Feng Li!" He was startled.

Since then, Fengcheng has been farewell. The two of them never met again, and they didn't expect him to go to Tianmozong and participate in the Demon Yang Ceremony.

He turned his gaze and landed on the name next to Feng Li.

Feng Mao...

It seems that this Feng Li did not know what method he used to participate in the Moyang Ceremony under a fake name. There must be some unknown stories in it. If we can meet in the future, he would like to ask about it.

"Mu Daoyou, do you know this Feng Mao?" Xu Luzi asked with a twinkle in his eyes.

"Why did Master Xu ask this question?" Shi Mu asked back.

"If Fellow Daoist Mu knows the details of this person, the old man is willing to pay a thousand spirit stones to buy it." Xu Luzi said.

"Sorry, I just think this person is a bit like a friend I knew before, but after a closer look, it seems that I have identified the wrong person." Shi Mu smiled.

"I see." Xu Luzi took a deep look at Shi Mu. road.

"Then I'll take my leave first." Shi Mu ignored Xu Luzi's gaze, nodded at the two, and walked outside.

Shopkeeper Tian hurried over and sent Shi Mu out in person.

Xu Luzi stood by the window, looked at Shi Mu's figure in the distance, and took out a white jade slip with his hands. It is the Tiandao arrest and killing order issued by the Tongtian Immortal Sect.

Shi Mu's image and his name appeared on the jade slip.

"Shi Mu, it's really different."

Xu Luzi muttered to himself, shook his head with a chuckle, and put the jade slip away with his hands.

After a while, the living room door was pushed open again, and shopkeeper Tian walked in.

"Master Xu, Liu An is here and wants to see you." Shopkeeper Tian said.

"Okay, you take him to the living room No. 2 first, and I'll go there later." Xu Luzi said with a look in his eyes.

Shopkeeper Tian agreed, but there was some resentment in his tone.

"Are you still concerned about what happened at Baoguang Pavilion in Tianyu City?" Xu Luzi said.

Shopkeeper Tian didn't say anything, which was his tacit consent.

"The Mingyue Sect has made compensation for the impact caused that day, and has also received the understanding of the high-level chamber of commerce. This matter is considered to be over. Don't forget the principles of life of my Tianwu Chamber of Commerce. I will not participate in secular disputes. Put your interests first, and don't let some prejudice affect your judgment." Although Xu Luzi's tone was calm, the implied warning in his words shocked shopkeeper Tian.

"Yes, thank you for the admonition, Master." Shopkeeper Tian said respectfully, and retreated.

Xu Luzi picked up the two artifacts left by Shi Mu and walked out.

A moment later, in another living room, a handsome young man in a moon-white robe and blood-haired shawl was drinking tea with his head down, with a casual expression. It was Liu An.

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and then Xu Luzi pushed the door and walked in.

"Master Liu, I'm sorry for keeping you waiting for a long time."

"Master Xu, you're welcome." Liu An said with a smile.

"Dianzhu Liu came here today, I don't know why?" Xu Luzi sat down opposite Liu An and asked straight to the point.

"Of course it's still the same thing." Liu An put away his smile.

Xu Luzi didn't show any surprise, nor did he speak, as if he was waiting for Liu An to say something.

"I don't know how the preparations are for the twenty-five vast sea boats that I ordered from you a few years ago?" Liu An asked.

"According to your request, the preparations are almost ready. According to the plan, it will take half a year to deliver the goods." Xu Luzi said.

Liu An was silent when he heard the words, and frowned slightly.

"What's the matter, is there a problem?" Xu Luzi asked.

"The next time I come, I want your Chamber of Commerce to deliver the goods in half a month." Liu An said.

"Impossible! As a spiritual weapon, the vast sea giant boat is not only difficult to find the materials required, but also the refining process is extremely complicated. We have already made every effort to make it according to the process, and it is really impossible to advance." Xu Luzi shook his head directly.

"I also know that this request is a bit embarrassing, but now that the situation has changed, I may need to use this batch of giant boats in advance. In terms of quantity, I can only deliver 20 ships. I am willing to pay 30% more than the total price. Elder Xu, please bear with me a little longer." Liu An said.

"Well, if there are twenty ships, there is no problem," Xu Luzi said.

"Then leave it to Master Xu." Liu An stood up and saluted.

"Master Liu, you don't have to be polite, this is the old man's job." Xu Luzi said.

"That being the case, Liu will come to visit in half a month." Liu An didn't stay long, got up and left.

"Master Xu, why did this Liu An come here this time? Why did he leave so quickly?" Shopkeeper Tian opened the door and walked in.

"It's still about the batch of giant boats in the vast sea. He wants to receive the goods in advance." Xu Luzi briefly described Liu An's request and the conditions offered.

Shopkeeper Tian nodded when he heard the words. Judging from the progress, I am afraid that the headquarters of the Chamber of Commerce has just finished building 21 or 2 ships.

"This Liu An is really not a simple person. It seems that everything is in his calculations. Dongfang Xiantian is like this. Maybe it is possible to turn the tide?" Xu Luzi's eyes flickered and he muttered to himself.

...

In the evening, the silver moon is like a hook, and the stars are densely covered.

A solo horse galloped out from the east gate of Quyang City, heading towards Dongfang Juechen.

Shi Mu rode that alien horse, and Cai'er squatted on Shi Mu's shoulder, without the weight of the meteorite knife and stick, the horse ran extremely briskly, and disappeared into the vast night within a few breaths.

"Cai'er, it's up to you whether you can kill a griffin this time," Shi Mu said.

"Don't worry, this matter is on me!" Cai Er said.

Shi Mu looked forward. Although the Heavenly Demon Sect sent black-winged griffins to monitor the major traffic routes in the Xixia Kingdom, Quyang City is the capital of the Xixia Kingdom after all, so they did not dare to send the griffins here presumptuously.

On the way to Quyang City, within three or four days' distance from Quyang City, there was no sign of the griffin.

Shi Mu calculated that as long as he gallops along this avenue to the east for a certain distance, as long as his luck is not too bad, he should be able to meet the Griffin Army, let alone Cai Er.

"Shitou, if you kill the griffins of the Heavenly Demon Sect, isn't that the same as turning them head-on?" Cai'er said.

"So what! The Heavenly Demon Sect and the Tongtian Immortal Sect wanted me first for no reason, and the Jiaheguan hall master ambushed me after him. This time, he just took a breath of anger." Shi Mu said.

Two days later.

In a barren mountain range, Shi Mu moved forward quickly along a mountain peak. Without the weight of the meteorite knife and stick, his speed was nearly half faster than before, like a shadow, quickly jumping forward among the mountains.

Above the mountains, several black dots hovered high in the sky. They were the black-winged griffins of the Demon Sect.

Shi Mu cautiously approached the griffin from the ground, and he had done a lot of research before coming.

The reason why the griffins of the Heavenly Demon Sect are extremely difficult to catch and kill is partly because this kind of bird flies extremely fast and has strong stamina, allowing it to stay in the sky for a long time.

On the other hand, this kind of griffin has sharp eyesight, and even the slightest movement of the ground below cannot escape their eyes.

After a while, he boarded the largest barren mountain nearby, hid behind a big rock, and looked at the griffin in mid-air.

Beside him, Cai'er disappeared at some point. (To be continued.)
