Taming the Demon: A Guide to Raising a Great Sage

Chapter 121 120, Goddess of Gold

Seeing that Mu Qingxue was on the verge of falling, and the corners of her lips were bleeding, Shen Lang was startled, and hurried over to help Mu Qingxue:

"Master Mu...those three guys actually hurt you?"

"It's not them...it's on the way here..."

Mu Qingxue spoke in a weak tone, suddenly her legs softened, her body tilted, and she leaned against Shen Lang.

Shen Lang thought he could easily support her.

But he didn't expect that when he raised his hands, what he supported was a heavy weight far beyond his imagination.Under a miscalculation, he almost lost his balance and was crushed to the ground by her.

Shen Lang quickly lowered his waist and stepped on the horse, bursting out with all his strength, carrying his shoulders and hands, and then holding Mu Qingxue firmly.

"Master Mu, you don't look fat, why are you so heavy?"

Mu Qingxue glared at him angrily:
"I'm not fat at all! I'm very slender! It's just that I carry more than 300 catties on my body... Actually, it's not too heavy. Counting my weight, the total is only more than 400 catties..."

"So what is your big cloak made of? How can it carry more than 300 catties?"

"Gold inside the cloak... and a gold breastplate..."

What the hell!

Carrying more than 300 catties of gold with you, Mr. Mu, you are truly a "Miss Gold Master"... No, it should be called a "Gold Goddess"!

Shen Lang blinked his eyes and said with great admiration:

"Master Mu, to be honest, you are far beyond my comprehension. I have grown up, and the most gold I have ever seen with my own eyes is only twenty gold bars since I came to Shark King Island...

"But didn't you say before that although gold can carry true energy, it's not suitable for weapons and armor? Why..."

Mu Qingxue raised her hand to stop Shen Lang from talking:
"Don't talk, just listen to me... I was accidentally injured on the way here..."

She didn't tell Shen Lang that in order to meet him as soon as possible, she ignored the ignorance of the waterway and took a straight line to Shark King Island. As a result, she repeatedly broke into various dangerous places on the way, encountered storms, thunderstorms, and sea monsters from time to time. Very difficult.

With only a short breath, he said briefly in a weak tone:
"The one who hurt me was a western monster whose strength was close to the third-rank master... Although I killed it, its power... lingered in my meridians, making it impossible for me to recover from the injury...

"Before, I used my secret method to forcibly suppress the injury, but just now I took the initiative to suppress the enemy, urging my true energy... The injury is almost unstoppable. So next... I need to spend at least one night to get rid of the power of the demon, you... You and those pirates..."

Having said that, she coughed twice, quickly took out a green pill and swallowed it, her breathing finally calmed down slightly.

Seeing this, Shen Lang said softly:
"Master Mu, you can rest easy and recuperate, and leave the other things to us.

"Sister Yu... is that girl pirate, her name is Chen Yuniang, and she is the shopkeeper of the Flying Fish.

"She has already seen through my identity as an undercover secret agent, but she didn't expose me. Instead, she decided to help me destroy Sha Wanli and Ying Guogong's plot to integrate pirates long before the hero meeting.

"Thus, although they are pirates, they are also good partners that I can entrust to my life and death, and they are trustworthy. We will take good care of the prisoners."

Mu Qingxue nodded, and said:
"What did you call me when I showed up before?"

"what?"

Shen Lang was at a loss:

"Master Mu, what do you mean? This subordinate is dull and can't understand."

You bastard, you obviously called me "Miss Jinzhu", and now you are pretending to be dazed and innocent?
Mu Qingxue hadn't seen the indifferent and cold appearance when he faced Zhu Yunfei and the other three, and rolled his eyes at him angrily:
"I'm too lazy to talk to you. Hurry up and watch the prisoners...wait a minute! What happened to the South Sea Sword Sect? Why did they get involved with the Shawanli gang?"

She also arrived a little earlier than Zhu Yunfei, and she didn't know anything about what happened at the hero meeting in the morning.

"It's like this..."

Shen Lang explained Jin Yiming's support for Sha Wanli, forced him to be the leader of the alliance, and vainly tried to control the pirates with "Dragon Blood Yijin Pill". Mu Qingxue nodded suddenly, and turned around again. Frown and say to himself:

"So, Sha Wanli is not directly controlled by Ying Guogong? Instead, it is controlled by the South Sea Sword Sect? This will make things a little troublesome..."

If this is the case, even if Sha Wanli is captured, it may be difficult to testify against Duke Ying.

Because on the surface, Sha Wanli was controlled by the South Sea Sword Sect with the "Dragon Blood Yijin Pill", and had nothing to do with Duke Ying.

Even if Sha Wanli knew that his boss behind the scenes was Duke Ying, and he came forward to testify, Duke Ying could deny it to death——

Do you believe what the pirates say?He is clearly slandering and framing his country's father!
Let me ask you a question:
Sha Wanli's home is far away in the Thousand Star Islands. I am a land-based prince who neither controls the army nor manages the government. How can I control him thousands of miles away and make him obedient?

Dragon Blood Yijin Pill?

But that is not the medicine of our government!
Shen Lang also wanted to understand this, and said:

"We have captured Jin Yiming and Zhu Yunfei. From the two of them, we may be able to interrogate the connection between the South China Sea Sword Sect and Ying Guogong, and convict Ying Guogong of colluding with the South China Sea Sword Sect and supporting and raising pirates." .”

After Mu Qingxue swallowed the pill, her breath calmed down a little, and although her voice was still a little weak, she stopped speaking intermittently:

"That's not how it works. Even if we know that Sha Wanli is controlled by the South Sea Sword Sect, and if we find out the connection between the South Sea Sword Sect and Duke Ying, we still can't convict Duke Ying of raising pirates.

"Master Ying can argue that he only has friendship with the South Sea Sword Sect, but he doesn't know that the South Sea Sword Sect secretly supports the pirates. The collusion with pirates is a secret operation of the South Sea Sword Sect and has nothing to do with him...

"With Duke Ying's status, his contacts in the court, and His Majesty's attitude... Based on this kind of indirect evidence alone, as long as Duke Ying refuses to admit it, we can't do anything to him.

"After all, he is a hereditary Duke. If there is no solid evidence, let alone search the Yingguo Palace to find evidence. Even asking him for a normal interrogation depends on his mood."

Shen Lang pondered and said:
"What if Jin Nanfei, the head of the South Sea Sword Sect, is captured, interrogated and asked to testify against Duke Ying?"

Mu Qingxue sighed softly:

"Only relying on the one-sided words of witnesses, it will not be able to defeat such a century-old nobleman as the Duke of Ying.

"I originally hoped to find solid evidence of collusion with Ying Guogong in Shawanli gang, but now it seems that there is little hope.

"However, it is imperative to arrest Jin Nanfei. After the matter of Shark King Island is over, we will go straight to the South Sea Sword Sect. Perhaps we can find evidence from the South Sea Sword Sect that Ying Guogong colluded with the South Sea Sword Sect and raised pirates..."

Speaking of this, she suddenly became short of breath again, covered her lips and coughed a few times, a few drops of bright red blood splashed on her snow-white palms.

Shen Lang apologized:
"Speaking so engrossed, I forgot about your lord's injury. This place is Sha Wanli's residence, and there should be a secret room where he usually retreats to practice. My lord wait a moment, I will help you find the secret room first, and then I will send you to heal your injuries."

Mu Qingxue took out her handkerchief, wiped off the blood on her palms, and said flatly:
"it is good."

Afterwards, Shen Lang turned on the "spiritual power scan" and searched upstairs and downstairs, and soon found a secret room with solid stone walls and iron doors, with futons and incense burners inside.

He was still on the wall of this secret room, scanned a secret compartment, directly used the "Xuanbing Sword" to violently destroy the organ, opened the secret compartment, found a scroll from it, and opened it, it was the "tide scroll" practiced by Sha Wanli. Palm" secret borrowing.
