Feeling Luo Shen's gaze, Liang Yan's heart skipped a beat and he secretly became extremely vigilant.
For some reason, Liang Yan always had a feeling of being unable to see through this charming female cultivator.
The last time they fought in Xuanyuan Haoyu's palace, although the two sides could fight with hundreds of moves, Liang Yan couldn't see through the opponent's depth, especially the weird sound of the flute, which actually made everyone in the hall look at each other.
The brutal killing made all his original plans come to nothing.
"This enchantress was Xuanyuan Haoyu's staff when I first met her, and now she appears here again. Could it be that she was originally Xuanyuan Qi's person?"
While I was thinking about it, Luo Shen's charming voice sounded in the corridor: "Huh? This little brother is a bit unfamiliar. Your Highness, is he also your subordinate?"
Xuanyuan Qi glanced at Liang Yan and said with a smile: "Senior Luo Shen, this is my subordinate who joined the army, his name is Lu Qian. Although he is only at the early stage of Xuanxuan, he has successfully condensed the sword pill not long ago. He is only ten years old.
After the year has passed, the sword pill will be unsheathed, and its strength will be comparable to that of the middle stage of Tongxuan!"
"It turns out to be a young hero!"
The smile on Luo Shen's face became even wider, with a bit of coquettishness and charm, Qiu Shui's eyes stared straight at Liang Yan.
"My little brother is not only very qualified, but also handsome. I wonder if you are interested in joining me? I will never treat you badly."
Liang Yan never expected that she would say such words. For a moment, he almost thought that she had seen through his identity, but then he thought about it. If he was really exposed, with the strength of this Luo Shen, there was no need to go around in circles.
Just take it off yourself.
He thought for a while, deliberately pretending to be embarrassed on his face, and said in denial: "Senior, I'm just joking. Lu is a member of His Royal Highness, the so-called loyal minister who doesn't serve the two masters, how can there be any reason to change the family?"
Liang Yan's words were righteous and stern, quite in the style of Confucianism. When Xuanyuan Qi saw it, he laughed and said: "Senior Luo Shen, my subordinate is a straight man, so don't tease him! Let's hurry up and get down to business.
?”
"Business?"
Luo Shen rolled her eyes at him, pretending to be puzzled and asked: "Young lady is stupid, you don't know what the 'business' that the prince just said is?"
Xuanyuan Qi's eyes flashed, and an evil smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Of course I want to ask senior to teach me the 'Secret Technique of Dual Cultivation'!"
"Oh, it turns out I want to learn the exercises."
Luo Shen's smile is like a flower, and her plump and delicate body is as soft as a bone, leaning on Xuanyuan Qi's arms.
"This skill is extensive and profound. I will only teach it once. Prince, you must learn it seriously!" Luo Shen placed a hand on Xuanyuan Qi's forehead. His words seemed to be serious and thoughtful, but his eyes were full of charm, which made people feel uneasy.
"Of course, of course!"
Xuanyuan Qi's face was rosy, he laughed loudly, picked up Luo Shen by the waist, and then with a flick of his fingers, the door of the secret room next to the corridor slowly opened. The two figures flashed into the secret room, and the door slowly closed again.
Liang Yan and Zhou Tong saw it from behind and were secretly surprised. They didn't expect these two people to be so coquettish and have no scruples in front of everyone.
Especially Xuanyuan Qi, who usually has the image of a chivalrous scholar traveling around the world with a sword outside, but he didn't expect that he was like this behind the scenes.
“Something is wrong”
Surprised, but Liang Yan still noticed something strange.
This Xuanyuan Qi is definitely not a person who is greedy for pleasure. He has just become the prince, and there must be many people in the old party who are dissatisfied with him. It is not his style to be greedy for pleasure.
"Is he really practicing some kind of skill? He just needs Luo Shen to cooperate with him?"
Liang Yan's thoughts were swirling in his mind, but Wen Qiuhua in front of him interrupted his train of thought and said with a smile: "I didn't expect the three of you to deliver the things the prince wanted so quickly. It just so happens that we can go and get this batch together."
Put the goods in place."
There was obviously something behind Wen Qiuhua's words. Liang Yan was also a little curious about what kind of goods needed to be relocated. Since he couldn't leave now, he might as well go and have a look.
"good!"
Wang Ding seemed a little excited, and he cupped his hands and said: "We all work for the prince, and Wang's future cultivation path will depend on Mr. Wen and the prince!"
"Easy to say, easy to say."
Wen Qiuhua smiled slightly, turned around, flicked his sleeves, and led the way.
The three of them followed Wen Qiuhua all the way to the depths of the palace, and soon they saw an underground river. The water was rushing like a rainbow. Not sure if it was an illusion, but Liang Yan actually felt a hint of ghostly coldness from the river, as if from the river.
Coming from the bottomless abyss.
"This is it."
Wen Qiuhua stopped on the bank and raised his hand to cast a spell. He saw the rushing river splitting to both sides, revealing a hidden stone gate.
He threw another black seal, and black light shot out from the seal. When he shined it at the stone door, he heard a "rumbling!" sound, and the stone door slowly opened.
The four people flew into the stone gate and saw that there was a cave inside, which was a black lotus pond. There were faint blood streaks floating on the surface of the pond. The blood streaks were horizontal and vertical, entangled back and forth, forming a strange and huge formation.
In addition to these, there are hundreds of huge lotus leaves floating in the sky above the pond. There is a blood cocoon in the middle of each lotus leaf. It is swelling and shrinking at this time, and there seems to be a living thing hidden inside.
"This is not simple, it should be a magic circle!"
Liang Yan saw the mystery of this place at a glance. He glanced around and quickly focused on the blood cocoons of the lotus leaves.
"The thing inside this blood cocoon seems to still have breath. It doesn't look like a spiritual beast. Could it be a monk?"
As soon as this idea came up, he felt a chill. Before he could think about it, Wen Qiuhua, who was walking in front, had already turned around, looked at Wang Ding, and said with a smile: "Wang Shilang, take that
Take out the batch of 'goods'."
Wang Ding was not surprised by this. He reached out and took out the yellow gourd from his sleeve and handed it into Wen Qiuhua's hand.
Two seals were affixed to the top of the yellow-skinned gourd, completely sealing the mouth of the gourd. The outside spiritual consciousness could not enter, and the breath inside would not be exposed. Liang Yan had always wanted to know what was inside.
Fortunately, Wen Qiuhua did not disappoint him. After taking the gourd, he tore off the seal with a smile, then turned the mouth of the gourd down and patted it gently.
The next moment, the yellow-skinned gourd trembled slightly, and a ray of sunlight shot out, releasing the "goods" inside.
After seeing this batch of "goods" clearly, Liang Yan and Zhou Tong were both surprised!
It turns out that what is contained here is not some elixir, magic weapon, or any heavenly or earthly treasure, but a person!
To be precise, they are young and beautiful female nuns!
It's just that these female nuns all have empty eyes and numb expressions, like zombies. They are lined up in a row in the stone chamber, and there are as many as twenty of them.
"Is that Liu Ying, the young master of Zuimeng Pavilion?"
Zhou Tong immediately recognized one of them, with a surprised look on his face. He glanced around and pointed at the people next to him: "There are also Luo Qinghan, the top disciple of Su Xin Zhai, Wang Miaomiao, the head disciple of Goddess Palace, and casual cultivators.
Li Xiangrou.”
She was well-informed and recognized five or six people in one breath, with a look of extreme surprise on her face.
"How could this happen? These are the things His Highness the Crown Prince asked us to escort? They are all the daughters of famous geniuses in Xuanyuan Domain. I have met Wang Miaomiao a few times before, so why is she like this now?
Zhou Tong asked very puzzledly.
"Humph, what a genius daughter, now she is just a plaything in the palm of His Highness the Crown Prince!" Wang Ding chuckled at this time, with a very sinister expression on his face.
"You already knew?"
Zhou Tong suddenly felt a chill running down his spine and couldn't help but take a step back.
"Haha, what Wang Shilang said is true." Wen Qiuhua said with a smile at this time: "The prince wants to practice magical skills. These so-called genius daughters are the cauldron for his training. They can contribute to the prince's cultivation.
It’s an honor for them.”
"This has violated Xuanyuan's law! If the city lord knows about it, he will be punished by the thunder of the Ministry of Punishment and will not be reincarnated forever!"
Zhou Tong was really scared. He never expected that the goods he had worked so hard to deliver were actually the proud disciples of various major sects. If word of this spread and the leaders found out, it would be hard to extinguish their hatred even if they died.
"There is no need to be afraid when Zhou joins the army."
Wen Qiuhua saw the fear in her eyes and comforted him: "His Royal Highness is a talented person with a bright future. Now he has inherited the magical power. In the future, he will be promoted to the 'Asian Saint'. Maybe the opportunity will come, and we in Xuanyuan City can still
There will be another saint! Then these so-called sect masters and heads will have no choice but to grovel before him!"
After Zhou Tong heard this, his face was still pale, and he gritted his teeth and said: "That's true, but after all, His Royal Highness the Prince is not a sub-sage, let alone a saint! If this matter is leaked, I'm afraid we will all be executed by the city lord Lingchi
, endure that endless torture!”
"Zhou Canjun, you are worrying too much!"
Wen Qiuhua blinked his eyes and said with a smile: "Heaven knows this and the earth knows it, the prince knows it, and we know it. As long as the few Taoist friends present don't tell this matter, which leader will know about it?"
As soon as these words came out, Wang Ding and Zhou Tong didn't have any special reaction. They each looked at each other, thinking that they were teaching themselves to be tight-lipped, but Liang Yan noticed something was wrong.
What kind of person won’t leak secrets? Only dead people are the most reliable!
Liang Yan remained calm on the surface, but secretly became wary in his heart.
Wen Qiuhua was in the late stage of Tongxuan. As Xuanyuan Qi's confidant, his magical power must be unfathomable. If he wanted to kill someone and silence him, Wang Ding and Zhou Tong would definitely not be able to resist him.
And with my current body, I'm afraid I can only compete with this person.
Thinking of this, he secretly took a few steps back and leaned towards the door of the stone chamber.
However, Wen Qiuhua didn't seem to notice, and without even looking at him, he faced the pond, with his back to the door, and raised his hand to perform a magic spell.
I saw the lotus leaves above the pond swaying, and streaks of emerald green light shot out, sweeping up the twenty talented female nuns on the shore and dragging them all onto the lotus leaves.
Seeing this, Liang Yan and Zhou Tong both realized that since these female cultivators had been pulled onto the lotus leaves by magic, it goes without saying that there should also be living cultivators among the blood cocoons on the other lotus leaves.
"There are actually so many!"
Zhou Tong was a little dumbfounded. You must know that there are more than a hundred lotus leaves above the pond. Could it be that more than a hundred female cultivators from Xuanyuan Domain have been arrested? And these female cultivators are all talented disciples of famous sects!
In the distance, Liang Yan's eyes flashed, and he suddenly thought of something.
"It seems that we have wrongly blamed Xuanyuan Haoyu before? Those missing female cultivators were not captured by the second prince, but were captured here by Xuanyuan Qi?"
As soon as this idea came up, Liang Yan felt that many things could be explained.
It is said that Xuanyuan Haoyu secretly arrested female cultivators in order to practice evil arts. However, in the battle in the underground palace that day, he used the authentic skills of the Xuanyuan royal family. His moves were majestic and did not look like evil arts at all.
This person is already dead, so there can't be any reservations, right?
On the contrary, Xuanyuan Qi was so seriously injured, why did he recover as before in just a few days?
As for the Rakshasa Demonic Cow, it was indeed found the second prince's palace based on the smell that day, but in the palace at that time, in addition to the second prince Xuanyuan Haoyu, there was also Xuanyuan Qi who was regarded as a "prisoner"!
At that time, the Rakshasa demon bull entered the underground palace and roared at the golden and jade soft couch at the back of the palace. Everyone thought it was Xuanyuan Haoyu who had taken away sister Zishan's spiritual root, but they did not notice that Xuanyuan Qi, who was beaten to pieces at that time, also
In the direction of the roar of the demonic bull!
"If this is the case, Xuanyuan Qi actually played a good game!"
Liang Yan witnessed the scene in front of him, connected the causes and consequences of the whole thing, and instantly understood a lot.
"Perhaps Xuanyuan Qi induced Xuanyuan Lingwei into the matter of 'the second prince is secretly practicing magic arts' in the first place. Those so-called 'evidences' are also Xuanyuan Qi's secret plan, just to divert trouble to the east. And really swallow it up."
He killed Zizhu and many other female spiritual root cultivators, but it was actually him!"
"He sent Luo Shen to the second prince, ostensibly to advise Xuanyuan Haoyu, and even taught him skills, but the real purpose was to induce the second prince to kill Xuanyuan Lingwei, thus forcing Xuanyuan Lingwei to resist desperately.
.”
"Also, Xuanyuan Qi also knows about the fact that Xuanyuan Lingwei found the Rakshasa Demonic Cow. He was captured by the second prince on purpose because he wanted to appear in the second prince's underground palace so that he could take advantage of the characteristics of the Rakshasa Demonic Cow.
Lure Xuanyuan Lingwei and others there, and finally induce Xuanyuan Haoyu and Xuanyuan Lingwei to fight each other, causing both sides to suffer losses, and ultimately benefiting ourselves."
The more Liang Yan thinks about it, the more likely it is. Looking at it now, there is no doubt that Luo Shen is Xuanyuan Qi. She played a long whistle in the hall that day, causing the Rakshasa demon cow to explode and die first, and then wiped out all Xuanyuan Haoyu's party.
Kill, just to make this matter dead without any evidence!
"What a Xuanyuan Qi. In order to ascend to the throne of the prince, you are not bad at using beauty traps or cruel tricks!"
Thinking of the fact that this person has different appearances and is very hidden, Mo Haoran regarded him as a life-and-death friend and confided in him at the beginning. Even after the incident at the Taohu Chamber of Commerce, he regarded him as an ally and discussed the plan together.
I couldn't help but feel a chill.
