Chapter 224 Finalizing the Journey
Yes, Empress Luofu is actually a Taoist partner with Sun and Moon True Lead Cauldron...
I think so.
Luofu Mountain is one of the ten great caves of Taoism. Empress Luofu is only a third-grade one and is not qualified to bear this title.
The real support of Luofu Mountain is actually Sun and Moon True Lead Cauldron.
Moreover, Sun and Moon True Lead Cauldron's path is not cut off. He still has the hope of being promoted to the first grade, although it is only a barely visible glimmer.
Of course, at this point, every half step forward is a desperate struggle. This glimmer of hope has surpassed nearly 90% of the second grade.
And his opportunity for promotion is the Sun and Moon Road.
The sun and the moon move in the sky, and they have their own path. This path is the great opportunity of Sun and Moon True Lead Cauldron.
However, Sun and Moon Road cannot be involved by others.
After Sun and Moon True Lead Cauldron was calculated by others to have his great opportunity, only a quarter of an hour later, a powerful person took action and destroyed Luofu Mountain.
Both the Sun and Moon True Lead Cauldron and Empress Luofu were seriously injured. Empress Luofu's soul was protected in the cauldron, and the will of the cauldron was almost completely wiped out, but she did not die.
It is not so easy to completely wipe out a second-grade.
He took the initiative to fall into a deep sleep before his will was worn out, and protected Empress Luofu with the body of a magic weapon, making it difficult for the outside world to invade.
To wake him up, it is necessary to wake up Luofu in the cauldron through the resonance of the Chenji Golden Pill Method.
After that, Luofu will have a way to activate the Sun and Moon True Lead Cauldron.
Hearing this, Li Qi frowned: "Then how did Tang Guo know about this? And, if this is true, why don't we wake him up now?"
"Now, we go to Wushen Mountain right away, no, we don't have to go, Yang Ning, and the remaining living people in Luofu Mountain should be able to do it!"
Li Qi couldn't figure it out. If it was really because of this, Wushen Mountain should have been able to wake up the other party long ago.
Why drag it on until now?
However, Yun Fang shook his head and explained, "Things are not that simple. Do you think that Luofu and the Sun and Moon True Lead Cauldron must be on our side?"
As soon as these words came out, Li Qi immediately understood the joints.
He has always been a smart man. He doesn't need to say much. With just one simple sentence, the whole picture of the whole incident immediately emerged in his mind.
Tang Guo doesn't want the Sun and Moon True Lead Cauldron to wake up...
Does Wushen Mountain want to?
Wushen Mountain's current plan is probably to spend some time gradually accumulating favors and other things until Luofu Niangniang owes a big debt in terms of material and favors.
She owes so much that she has to pay it back, so that she is completely tied to Wushen Mountain's chariot.
This is a bit unkind, but to put it bluntly, it is "repaying a favor with a favor."
Li Qi suddenly realized that Shen Shuibi was by his side... Was it also part of this plan?
But this is an outside trick, and it will take some time.
Before this, the tacit understanding between Wushen Mountain and Tang Guo should be that neither side would wake up the Sun and Moon True Lead Cauldron and let it sleep like this.
In this way, with the tacit understanding of both parties, the fight for the Sun and Moon True Lead Cauldron can be put on the negotiation table.
The matter between the two top forces in the world must be resolved at the negotiation table.
Everyone may be able to use some tricks, but no matter what tricks they use, the ultimate goal is to resolve it at the negotiation table.
If someone flips the table, then the matter is not just about the Sun and Moon True Lead Cauldron.
It is a direct conflict between Wushen Mountain and Tang State.
That is definitely a catastrophe that is unbearable for both parties, unless one party chooses to give in.
But if things really come to that point, can they give in?
Impossible.
Therefore, things must be put on the negotiation table to resolve, this is a must.
Originally, both parties had a tacit understanding.
It's like, facing a controversial matter, everyone promised: "You don't move, and I don't move either. Let's discuss it first before moving."
Even, it is very likely that more than Wushen Mountain and Tang State have reached this agreement.
As far as Li Qi knows, the demons also fought for Luofu Niangniang and the Sun and Moon True Lead Cauldron... The two demon kings said that the great saints also gave instructions...
After everyone reached an agreement, suddenly, a young man from Wushen Mountain directly got the Chenji Golden Pill Method.
What do you want everyone to think?
You did it unintentionally?
Okay, you may have done it unintentionally, but who dares to believe it?
The Sun and Moon Path is of great importance, no one will believe it, and it is even very likely that some people deliberately do not believe it, they just want to fight.
This is where the problem lies.
Li Qi accidentally broke the tacit balance of the forces of all parties.
The solution now is also very simple, remove Li Qi's memory, or simply kill him, to prove that Wushen Mountain has no evil in mind, it is indeed an accident.
If it were just an ordinary person, it would probably be handled this way.
But Li Qi is a direct descendant of Wushen Mountain. In order to appease outsiders, he killed his own children. What do other family members think?
So Li Qi can't be killed.
What about erasing his memory?
Are you kidding? Erasing the memory would cut off Li Qi's path.
Erasing the memory would leave an indelible scar on the soul. It would have no effect on low-level cultivators, but when they become great wizards in the future, it would be like cutting themselves in advance, and the difficulty would increase by a thousand times.
This was the source of the previous battle.
The Tang Kingdom sent people to negotiate with Wushen Mountain.
But after noticing Li Qi's existence, they immediately gave up the negotiation and prepared to eliminate the trouble directly.
So Zhu Fengdan took action in anger and killed these Tang people.
Li Qi now knew why Yun Fang smiled bitterly.
In order to save Li Qi, Zhu Fengdan killed two third-rank officials of the Tang Dynasty.
This is almost equivalent to a declaration of war between the two sides.
My teacher is really...random.
A lot of things went through Li Qi's mind instantly, and he broke into a cold sweat when he thought about the involvement behind it.
Now even he didn't know what to do for a while.
The conflict has been completely aroused.
Everyone suspected that Wu Shenshan was unruly. Instead of proving himself, Wu Shenshan killed the Tang people who came to discuss the matter.
Although it was the Tang people who made the first move...
But it can't be cleaned this way.
What to do?
The most important thing is that his teacher killed two high-ranking officials of the Tang Dynasty in a cool manner. How to deal with the matter after that?
My master and disciple... seem to have caused big trouble for Wushen Mountain.
Even Shen Shuibi was stunned.
After Rabbit heard Yun Fang's words, even though she was not good at dealing with people, she could still hear the meaning behind them.
Wushen Mountain is not the backer of the Luofu Empress.
There is no telling where Empress Luofu will seek refuge after she wakes up.
More than one force is eyeing the Sun and Moon True Lead Cauldron, and the key to awakening the Sun and Moon True Lead Cauldron lies with the Empress.
Shen Shuibi immediately realized what he had done.
But the empress is still asleep and cannot take sides.
By giving Li Qichen the ultimate golden elixir method... I was helping the empress stand in line.
She had no idea this thing would be so involved.
Why didn't anyone tell her?
Even if the people from Wushen Mountain didn't tell her, what about Yang Ning?
what is going on?
With such a big thing involved, it's impossible to forget him. There must be some reason behind this!
As soon as she thought of this, Shen Shuibi immediately said: "This matter is definitely not that simple. The great witch still invites..."
Zhu Fengdan rolled his eyes before she finished speaking: "Nonsense, of course I know it's not that simple. I will definitely investigate what happened, but it doesn't prevent us from dealing with it now."
Hearing this, Shen Shuibi could only lower his head and asked in a low voice: "Then... what is the great witch going to do?"
Zhu Fengdan nodded: "It's easy to say, aren't they worried? I have a way to reassure them, but this requires your cooperation, apprentice."
Yun Fang was shocked: "Wait, what can you do? Why don't I know? Why didn't you discuss it with me?"
But Zhu Fengdan did not reply to the old man at all. Instead, he said directly to Li Qi: "How about going to the Tang Dynasty? There is a place for you in the Imperial College. I will take this rabbit of yours and go to the Imperial College to study for a few years. When things come to light, Solve it all by yourself, so no one can kill you, and no one dares to erase your memory."
"Aren't they worried? Then if you take the initiative to go to Chang'an, it will be enough to calm the hearts of the people in the world. The temperament of the Tang Dynasty will never touch you in the slightest. People who claim to be kings still have these courages. Moreover, going to Taiyuan University, It's just what you want." Zhu Fengdan looked at Li Qi with a smile.
I have to say that Li Qi's heart skipped a beat the moment he made this suggestion.
Go to...Tang Guotai Academy.
I have to say, this is an excellent choice.
First of all, this can reassure many forces. He and Shen Shuibi went to the Tang Kingdom with the Chenji Golden Pill Method. Everyone knew that this thing had not been spread outside, and it was difficult to spread it in the Tang Kingdom. Everyone can rest assured that Wu Shenshan did not go there without authorization. The real lead cauldron moves the sun and the moon.
Secondly, although this feels like being a hostage...but in fact, this is exactly what Li Qi wants.
At the beginning of his practice, what he saw was the county town of humanity.
At that moment, he saw the grand scene of all the energy gathering and rising straight into the sky.
After that, a major motivation for his practice was to witness other paths in this endless world.
And now, what better opportunity could there be?
But Yun Fang was worried. He frowned and said, "No, this is too risky. Do you trust those people in Tang State so much? If they have evil intentions, they won't even be saved."
Zhu Fengdan nodded: "That's natural, so I will ask the Supreme Academy Jijiu to personally send a letter to invite Li Qi, and send him to Chang'an to 'study abroad' in a formal way, in full view of the world."
"Although it is actually to reassure everyone, he is actually our envoy from Wushen Mountain to the Tang Dynasty. Old man Yun, you won't forget, right? You are a member of the clan, and Li Qi is a blessing person."
"Communicating with all parties and making alliances and oaths is Zhuren's duty. This is also an opportunity for him. The Tang State will never attack other people's envoys. Li Qi can also shoulder the mission of Wushen Mountain and walk."
In ancient times, when countries formed an alliance, Zhu Ren was required to act as a neutral supervisor.
Fulfilling the covenant is also Zhuren's duty.
Therefore, in ancient times, when the Central Plains had not yet been unified, the strongest people in the Central Plains countries at that time would usually ask people to form an alliance and make themselves the 'alliance leader'.
In the past, there were five such alliance leaders in the Central Plains, known as the Five Hegemons.
"In this way, he will go to school for a few years and be an envoy for a few years. We will find out the dirty tricks here and the matter can be solved."
Yun Fang was a little impatient: "But don't forget, you just killed someone else! If your apprentice goes to Tang State now, he will definitely be targeted and may even be killed. If he is humiliated in public and his Taoist heart is broken..."
Zhu Fengdan didn't take it seriously: "Apprentice, are you afraid?"
Li Qi immediately stood up and held up his hands: "The soldiers will block it, the water will cover it with the earth, that's all."
Zhu Fengdan also immediately applauded: "Look, a ninth-level person dares to kill a seventh-level person, accepts the mission, and goes to another country. Why not? I, Zhu Fengdan's apprentice, am not a person who is hesitant and obedient."
He said boldly: "It's just Tang Guotai Academy, why can't I go there!?"
"He is only in the eighth grade today!" Yun Fang wanted to say something else.
Zhu Fengdan said angrily: "Nao Suo, he is not the only one. I will report it to the Witch God, dispatch people, and form an envoy for him. With him as the leader, I will never lose the reputation of the Witch God Mountain!"
Even after saying these words, Yun Fang was speechless for a moment, and finally sighed, unable to refute.
Zhu Fengdan behaves like this every time, and there is really nothing that can be done against him.
However, all in all, Zhu Fengdan didn't even seek other people's opinions, and the matter was just finalized.
Zhu Fengdan was still the same as before. After the matter was finalized, he turned around and left without even saying goodbye.
To put it nicely, this is called acting vigorously and resolutely.
To put it harshly, this is called patting the butt and leaving...
Li Qi was also helpless.
But fortunately, at least this teacher still has himself in his heart.
But...the teacher left, but the other great wizard did not leave.
According to the teacher, this is a ‘sect member’?
Among witches, there are endless channels of Taoism, including five sense organs, witches, ghosts, witches, etc.
But there are only three channels that can be called orthodox shamans.
Zhu, Bu, Zong.
Zong, in charge of the ceremony of founding a nation.
People who wish to be blessed generally have a radiant, handsome and bright image. They are responsible for traveling around, and their main responsibilities are communication and witnessing.
Most fortune tellers are responsible for the home, and they are basically magic sticks. They stay at home and make plans silently, using divination and wisdom to assist others.
The clan members are responsible for more specific things, the specific implementation of something, the distribution of various materials, that is, those who hold power and do practical things.
The Zhu person is in charge of the outside world, the clan person is in charge of the internal affairs, and the fortune teller serves as an intellectual advisor to assist both parties in their affairs.
It's probably such a division of labor.
Facing the big sect who had not yet left, Li Qi showed great respect and pulled Shen Shuibi to stand up: "Senior, is there anything else we can help with?"
Since the other party is staying, there must be something else. At this time, you have to use the art of speaking.
If you ask the other person why they are staying, you may get beaten.
Asking if there's anything you can do to help seems sincere.
However, after hearing Li Qi's question, Yun Fang did not answer, but looked at the other party's standing posture.
He is very handsome, has outstanding artistic skills, is diligent and caring for the people, has a high-spirited attitude, but is not rigid, and the little Jiujiu in his heart also seems very cute.
With these little jiujiu and that kind of passion, this is what young people are like...
What a good boy.
After just a brief look, he showed a kind smile common to the elderly: "No need to be polite, just sit down and talk."
"By the way, what's the relationship between you two? If you are willing to exchange the third-grade secret records and techniques, you must have great trust in each other, right?"
It’s a new month, and it’s still a double monthly pass. Please give me a monthly pass. If you achieve your goal, I will add more updates. Wouldn’t it be wonderful?
