After killing Liu Xiang, Li Xuan picked up Sima De and walked out of the cellar. Long Kui and Succubus followed behind, and soon left the nameless inn full of dead aura.
Back on the nearby mountain, Li Xuan found a few herbs from the ring space, crushed them and pasted them on Sima De's nose. After a while, he shuddered and woke up suddenly.
"Am I dreaming, or am I dead?"
Seeing Li Xuan vaguely, Sima De shook his head and said in confusion.
"You are not dreaming, nor are you dead.
I just rescued you."
Li Xuan said.
Sima De was still a little dizzy. After a while of rest, he recalled what had happened in the past few days.
Five days ago, Sima De and Luo Tianshu came to Shanbei Town and prepared to fulfill their one-year appointment with Li Xuan.
They had just settled in the town, and Liu Xiang led the Jixialong team to arrive and launched a sneak attack.
Sima De and Luo Tianshu were caught off guard and outnumbered. Luo Tianshu was killed on the spot, while Sima De was captured alive by Liu Xiang and locked up in the cellar of the Wuming Inn.
"He doesn't kill me, but wants to force me to ask about things from the outside world."
Sima De said angrily, "If it weren't for you to rescue me, once I was brought back to Jixia by them, what was waiting for me would be countless tortures."
"They are so interested in things in the Outland?"
Li Xuan felt strange. At first, he thought the Jixia Dragon Group was coming for him, but it didn't seem like that.
"Jixia has become a lackey of the Du family father and son, and of course he is interested in the foreign land."
Sima De sneered.
"Why are you related to the Du family and son again?"
Li Xuan became even more curious. Du Rufeng was the enemy who offered a reward for other people's heads. As long as things that were unfavorable to Du Rufeng, Li Xuan was willing to kick him.
"This is also the secret I just discovered... The Du family and son seem to be carrying out a plan to control the location where the foreign land is coming."
Sima De said.
"Why do they do this?"
Li Xuan asked.
Sima De said in a deep voice: "If I guess correctly, they want to use the foreign land to conquer the moon shadow world."
Li Xuan was stunned. He had a dual life in the Earth and Moon Shadow Realm, and was also a top monk, but he had never heard of similar crazy behaviors.
Although Du Rufeng is a legendary powerful monk, he is probably worse than Li Xuan on Earth. Why can he have such a big world? Is his head not brain matter but mud?
Sima De's next words solved the mystery in Li Xuan's heart.
"The Du family seems to have mastered the rune magic array in the outer realm and can use the magic array to control the power of the outer realm to serve him.
If that's the case, his plan would be horrible."
Sima De said.
Li Xuan's expression became very serious. He just got some broken pages of ancient books and discovered the secret of runes. If used properly, the power would be quite terrifying.
Du Rufeng was already a legendary cultivator. If he mastered the rune magic array and controlled the power of the foreign domain, he would probably be invincible in the world.
"If powerful abilities are in the hands of madmen, they will be a terrifying result."
Li Xuan murmured to himself.
Long Kui laughed secretly, although Li Xuan is not a lunatic, at least a demon, is the powerful power he possesses also a terrifying result?
"It is said that the Xue family of the military cooperated with the Imperial College to stop the Du family's plan."
Sima De said.
Li Xuan remembered Gan Wangdao. In the deal that had not been reached, there was a mysterious assassination target. He now suspected that the person Gan Wangdao was going to assassinate was Du Rufeng.
"No matter what, I will stop the Du family."
Sima De said again.
"What are you going to do?"
Li Xuan had no idea of saving the Yueying Realm, but he and Du Rufeng were enemies. If he had the opportunity to make it difficult for the Du family and son, he would certainly not give up.
"If the Du family wants to set up a magic array, there are two necessary conditions.
One is a suitable geographical location, and the other is a large number of gems.
Of course he is not short of gems, so I am going to go to the Yuelong Mountains to find a suitable place and destroy them all."
Sima De said.
"This is a good idea, I just don't know if it will work.
I want to go to Fengjing City to see if I can do something.”
Li Xuan thought about it and felt that it was time to settle the grudges with Du Rufeng.
On the day he sent a killer to cause trouble for himself, I was afraid that Li Xuan would have the courage to go to Fengjing City to repay ten times.
"Then let's act separately.
By the way, the ancient books were searched by Liu Xiang, and it seemed that someone had been sent back to Fengjing City."
Sima De said hatefully, "But I remember all the runes in my mind and I can tell you without reservation."
"So, our deal is still valid?"
Li Xuan took out the gems that had been prepared long ago and handed them over to Sima De.
Next, it was time for the two of them to teach and discuss and study. Long Kui walked away tactfully and warned them from the side.
Because Li Xuan had experience in his previous life, his understanding of runes was much higher than that of Sima De, but he still had too few runes, and he still needed to rely on Sima De's power.
Curiosity and desire for power made Li Xuan tirelessly absorb every information revealed by Sima De.
Although there is no original book of ancient books, Sima De has long been familiar with the runes and has a lot of experience. When the two communicated, they found that many aspects of knowledge could complement each other.
The two were immersed in the profound and profound power system brought by runes and could not extricate themselves for a long time.
For three days, if Long Kui hadn't brought food occasionally and reminded them to have dinner, they would have been hungry.
On the morning of the third day, the sun was shining warmly in the jungle. Long Kui was leaning against the tree trunk and fell asleep deeply. Li Xuan's fingers swept across the ends of her hair, awakening her.
"it's over?"
Long Kui looked around and saw no trace of Sima De. He seemed to have left.
Li Xuan seemed to have become a different person, not tired, but a kind of confidence and satisfaction that emerged from the bottom of her heart.
He gently kissed Long Kui on the cheek: "He has left, and it's time for us to set off."
"Go to Fengjing City?"
Long Kui was a little excited. She just went to Fengjing City during her graduation trip several years ago, and always wanted to visit the largest city in the Yueying world again.
"Go to Luoyi City first."
Li Xuan said, "I promised Sima De that I must do something for him."
Long Kui did not ask what was going on, nor did he think that returning to Luoyi City was a dangerous thing.
From no time on, her life was integrated with Li Xuan. The two of them had to be together no matter where they lived or died, no matter where they went.
