That's what villains are like

Chapter 73

Jiang Lan glanced at Su Qinghan with interest, but didn't intend to explain much.

After he took his seat, Chu Chan came over immediately, then picked up the jug, and very obediently filled the glass golden bottle in front of him.

The light golden liquor, like jade beads, flows with crystal brilliance and exudes a rich fragrance of wine.

Just a light sniff, it seems to be able to make people intoxicated.

Liuli Qiong Xianlu.

Although Chu Chan has never been to Zuixianju, she has heard of the wine in the shop of Zuixianju for a long time.

Just for the small cup in front of her, the raw materials for brewing alone cost sky-high prices, which was beyond her imagination.

Moreover, Liuli Qiong Xianlu has a price but no market.

Some advanced practitioners, even if they buy it, will use it for collection and will not taste it lightly.

Even if the meat is stored in special containers, it can still be seen that there are wisps of sunlight flowing out of it.

It is no exaggeration to describe this table of dishes as priceless.

She trembled slightly in her heart, but she still maintained a calm expression on her face, she didn't want to show such an ugly face that had never seen the world.

Su Qinghan's eyes were cold, and when he saw Chu Chan so close to Jiang Lan, he gave a slight indifferent smile in his heart.

She knew that Jiang Lan was obsessed with cleanliness, and Chu Chan's actions would not only fail to please him, but would actually backfire.

Of course, it was also the first time for her to come to Tianzi No. [-] Building of Zuixianju, and it was also the first time she had seen such extravagant dishes.

From a certain point of view, it is also in line with Jiang Lan's "extravagant and voluptuous" personality from the outside world.

……

"How about the investigation in Danzhou County?"

At the same time, in an inn in Anyang City, by the window.

A middle-aged man in coarse linen sat there quietly. On the table in front of him were several small dishes and drinks.

Between his sleeves, there is a flower embroidered with gold thread and black thread, if you don't look carefully, you can't find it at all.

In front of him, a lightly armored woman was sitting opposite her, with a visor on her face, so she couldn't see the facial features, only the curve of Miaoman's figure could be seen.

A token with the word "Jian" hanging on the waist is intertwined with Dao rhyme and made of extraordinary material.

"Is it about the bloody plateau?" the woman in light armor asked, her tone flat.

The middle-aged man nodded and said, "Young Master is very concerned about such a big change in the Scarlet Plateau, and wants to know if it is caused by the Blood Immortal Sect."

"Thousands of years ago, the disaster of the Blood Immortal Sect caused people to lose their lives, and our Great Xia suffered a huge loss. If we hadn't occupied the favorable terrain in Zhongtian Prefecture, I'm afraid it would have been taken advantage of by the rest of the world..."

The woman replied, "That is probably the ruins of the Blood Immortal Cult, but my Supervisor Tiansi sent people to guard the Quartet, and I didn't find anything unusual. The change this time is indeed weird."

"We used means to trace back some of the scenes at that time, and there were indeed unexpected discoveries..."

"Oh?" The middle-aged man raised his eyebrows and asked in surprise, "What did you find?"

The woman said calmly, "The successor of the Blood Immortal Cult reappeared in the world."

"what……"

The middle-aged man's complexion changed, his pupils trembled even more, and he almost stood up.

With his state of mind, he couldn't help but feel a burst of shock and horror.

The woman was not surprised by the change in his expression, she nodded and said, "After the turmoil in the Scarlet Plateau subsided, we sent people to investigate, although affected by the residual atmosphere of the Blood Immortal Sect's formation, many scenes were unclear. "

"But the only thing that is certain is that many of the monsters died, all of which were plundered of vitality, and there were not even corpses left."

Speaking of this, the middle-aged man also understood, took a deep breath, and calmed himself down.

"That is to say, that astonishing vision is actually the successor of the Blood Immortal Sect, practicing in it?"

The woman nodded and said nothing more.

The middle-aged man's complexion was cloudy and uncertain. Was such an astonishing phenomenon just caused by his practice?
How terrifying is the strength of the contemporary disciples of the Blood Immortal Cult?
Where are those existences hiding now?For so many years, no news or traces have come out.

"So, what happened that day, was he actually just provoking all parties, or was he summoning the remnants of the Blood Immortal Sect?" He asked anxiously again.

Dai Mei frowned under the woman's visor, as if she was also thinking about this question.

"I guess... the Blood Immortal Cult may be about to take action. The move of the Blood Immortal Cult's disciples should be the remnants of the summoning of the Blood Immortal Cult. The abbot of the Mercy Temple used Fate Tong before sitting down, and saw A disaster that will sweep across Kyushu in the future."

"The Blood Immortal Sect will make a comeback again, far more terrifying than ever before."

"During this period of time, there have been bloody massacres to varying degrees in many remote areas outside Great Xia. I suspect that the remnants of the Blood Immortal Cult are doing the work, collecting nourishment for the blood sacrifice." She said slowly.

Today's Kyushu land is divided into five land boundaries: Zhongtian Prefecture, Nanhuang, Beihai, Xiling, and Dongyuan.

Among them, Daxia is the recognized overlord of Zhongtian State.

The surrounding dynasties and clans all come to the dynasty, and there are also big and small families and sects in the territory.

Outside the Great Xia, the rest of the Immortal Sects are in a detached position and will not interfere with the rule of the Great Xia.

The emergence of the Blood Immortal Sect has greatly impacted and threatened Daxia's status.

Including the entire Zhongtian Prefecture, it was once swept by wars and disasters.

The Blood Immortal Sect is trying to establish a religious order that is large enough to rule the entire land of Kyushu.

Whether it is the imperial dynasty or the immortal sect, all have to obey its discipline and rule.

But those who disobey will be wiped out.

Thousands of years ago, it also brought endless blood and rain to the entire land of Kyushu.

In many classics, calligraphy and paintings, even records about the turmoil can be found.

Ten cities and nine empty spaces, corpses everywhere, blood stained the mountains and forests, many people even call it the Dark Blood Age.

The aristocratic lineages and dynasties that perished in that era are innumerable.

To this day, some monks of the older generation who have experienced that era are still full of fear when they mention the Blood Immortal Sect.

"It's really related to the Blood Immortal Sect, my lord, he still doubts...whether it's the work of the Xiangguo Mansion..." The middle-aged man let out a long sigh.

The woman glanced at him, and just said, "I still hope to be careful."

"Speaking of which, the young master of Xiangguo's mansion appeared in Anyang City, and was assassinated some time ago. I thought there would be an uproar, but I didn't think it would die down soon. Some people in the court suspected that someone wanted to provoke Xiangguo and The royal relationship..."

"I don't know the identity of the assassin, do you know?" the middle-aged man asked again.

The woman said nothing.

As the person who supervises Tiansi, she will not intervene in the factions in Daxia, let alone ask more questions.

"Thank you for today's matter."

"Now it's an eventful time, the Blood Immortal Sect has reappeared in the world, and Zhongtian Prefecture's Asking Ceremony will also be held. I hope you will protect yourself... Junior Sister."

Seeing this, the middle-aged man sighed lightly, then got up, cupped his hands slightly, and then left.

After the middle-aged man left, the woman in light armor said thoughtfully, "Jiang Lan..."

Supervising Tiansi, who supervises the affairs of the world, from the emperor's relatives to the traffickers and pawns, any trouble in the Great Xia cannot escape his supervision.

But there is someone among them, in Jiantiansi's understanding records... the past experience decades ago is actually blank.

In the depths of Jiantiansi, there is a magnificent palace called Jiantian Temple.

The formation in the center is strict and the restrictions are tight, like a thunder pool, even if it is a strong man of the seven realms, it is difficult to surpass half a step.

In the Temple of Supervising Heaven, there are recorded various secret histories of files left over from the supervision of the world today, involving spirits and strange phenomena, chance caves, humanities and heavenly principles, monks and souls...

She had obtained permission to enter it once during a mission, so she had read one of the files.

The young master of the Xiangguo Mansion's experience decades ago is blank.

Even in Tianjian Division, there is no record left.

Either it means it was destroyed, or even Supervisor Tiansi failed to find out what happened to him more than ten years ago.

But no matter which one it is, it shows that the son of Xiangguofu has a big secret hidden in him.

But now, Jian Tiansi's first investigation is still the vision that appeared on the Scarlet Plateau that day.

By going back to the scene at that time, and then using a master who is proficient in formations and the power of the void, he will conduct on-site deduction.

Jian Tiansi came to a conclusion that someone borrowed the Territory Breaking Talisman, appeared there that day, and then left through the Territory Breaking Talisman.

But the specific place and area, this needs to be further deduced and traced.

……

Zuixianju, in the elegant room.

"Are you sure you want to meddle in your own business?"

The old ghost's voice was still low and hoarse.

Accompanied by a wave of soul breath, a black smoke-like figure floated on Ye Ming's palm.

"This is not meddling. I am helping Zhu Yun and paving the way for myself. Moreover, I already have a countermeasure, which is absolutely foolproof."

"I just want to pretend to be the accomplice of the assassin who assassinated the second ancestor some time ago, and avenge my companion." Ye Ming said firmly.

Ling Zhuyun, one of the saint women of Yaochi Sect today.

At the same time, he is also the person he has always admired.

As long as the female disciple of the Yaochi Sect is rescued, according to Ling Zhuyun's personality, she will definitely owe him a favor.

Zixia Mountain had the opportunity to inform the other party of the news of his birth, and he had sent a message to the other party, and the other party would come here to meet him soon.

With the help of the other party, he will be more confident in obtaining the opportunity inheritance in Zixia Mountain.

"Okay, then I will help you once."

The old ghost Mulu praised, "But I can only hold those people back for a while, and you will have to rely on yourself during this period."

Ye Ming said gratefully, "Thank you, old ghost. When I succeed in my practice in the future, I will definitely help you find the Immortal Huanyang Grass, so that you can get out of your current state and restore your human body."

The old ghost just laughed and didn't express his opinion.

He has wandered around for a long time as an immortal remnant soul, and he has taught many apprentices.

People with mediocre qualifications like Ye Ming have seen too many of them, and he can't remember them himself.

Even Tianjiao, who possessed such extraordinary physiques as the Divine Physique of Creation, the Divine Physique of Nine Hells, and the True Physique of Yuhuang, failed to make it to that point.

With the current Ye Ming, he still wants to help him find the Immortal Returning Yang Grass that can only be found in the legendary Jiuyou Underworld?

But he didn't say much, Ye Ming did have a kind of great luck that the apprentices he had guided before didn't have.

hum! ! !
The next moment, bursts of golden light flashed, Ye Ming waved his big hand, and ejected ten jade pills from the Sumeru Ring.

These ten jade pills are simple and golden in color, the size of a baby's fist, and they are astonishingly bright, with a tyrannical force surging in them.

As Ye Ming muttered words, runes appeared flashing one after another, and quickly sank into the jade pills inside.

"The mechanism technique in ancient times is indeed extraordinary. Inside a small jade pill, there is a complete mechanism puppet hidden. Just by its material, it can defeat the strong in the four realms."

"If the soul is strong, and you can manipulate ten jade pills at the same time, they can even be combined into a formation, which can defeat the existence of the six realms."

"With the mystery of the old ghost, it is not difficult to manipulate these ten jade pills..."

Ye Ming's mind turned, and he gave another low drink.

In front of the ten jade pills, a golden light flashed suddenly, and ten masked figures faintly appeared in them, with the same height and size, and the appearance was exactly the same as that of the human race.

The only difference is that the eyes are empty and lifeless, without any breath of life.

"Old ghost, it's up to you."

Ye Ming said, and at the same time, he performed the secret technique to change his appearance, and his bones cracked, and he instantly changed into another appearance.

The old ghost just responded casually, and the eyes of the ten puppets in front of them began to move, as if they had become complete living creatures.

boom! ! !
The next moment, the elegant room in front of him was rushed away by several tyrannical figures, the patterns outside flickered, and the fluctuations with mana began to pervade.

At the same time, Ye Ming's figure disappeared, and he ran directly towards the top floor of Tianzi No. [-] Building like a streamer.

The huge momentum instantly attracted the attention of many guests in Zuixianju.

A lot of people were shocked and rushed out immediately, not knowing what happened.

In the atrium, dozens of masked figures, along the jade corridor, quickly rushed to the top floor, mana surged around them, the light of the sword was dense, and the killing breath was amazing, just like a group of dead soldiers who were not afraid of death.

"Who dares to be presumptuous here?"

Suddenly, a roar of thunder-like anger resounded in the drunken fairy house.

An old man in a scarlet robe rushed over quickly, with long red eyebrows and eyes that seemed to be filled with fire.

It is the existence responsible for guarding Zuixianju and maintaining order here.

"Jiang Lan villain, give back my brother's life, you will die here today."

"I see who dares to stop?"

A shout full of hatred and anger resounded among the dozens of figures, and they rushed directly to the top floor, the private room where Jiang Lan was.

"There are assassins, protect the young master."

A group of guards quickly reacted, immediately drew their weapons, resisted and moved forward, and killed them.

A chaotic battle broke out in the Drunken Immortal Residence.

For a moment, in midair, the runes flashed, the rays of the sun boiled, and various weapons collided with radiance.

If it wasn't for the array pattern engraved here, it would be turned into ruins in the first place.

Even so, the clash of weapons, like the sound of angry waves hitting the shore and flying rocks, still made all the guests here feel angry and bloody, their throats were sweet, and their complexions turned pale for a while.

"Could it be that these assassins have long been dormant here? Just waiting for the arrival of Mr. Xiangguo to launch a thunderous strike?"

"How did they know that Mr. Xiangguo would come here? And there are so many people?"

Everyone was surprised and shocked, and this question appeared in many people's minds.

The steward of Zuixianju's complexion was slightly pale, but his expression quickly became angry and cold, and he began to mobilize his staff.

If any accident happened to Jiang Lan on the site of Zuixianju, he would not want to live alone.

What made him angry at the moment was that someone dared to make trouble in Zuixianju, and they didn't realize it at all before.

"Those figures are a bit weird. They don't look like simple creatures, but rather like puppets being manipulated..."

However, the guests here still have some vicious eyes.

Soon, several people of the older generation noticed that the auras of the dozens of figures fighting together with the crowd were fluctuating abnormally.

In the arena, the clouds are intertwined, the golden light is surging, and various weapons collide with each other, and the aura is astonishing.

Just as everyone was trembling and shaking, the scene changed, and a misty light appeared.

Those ten figures began to appear in all directions, as if forming formations at the same time.

There was an inexplicable breath rising up, as if the gods in ancient times were chanting ancient scriptures, singing there, making one's scalp numb, and the rumbling sound of curses spread, deafening.

The terrifying fog of light instantly covered up and engulfed everyone there.

The faces of many guests also changed, and they hurriedly retreated to the spacious area outside, for fear of being implicated and swept in.

Many people have seen this kind of formation for the first time, and it is possible to use the formation of ten people to draw out the terrifying power of the universe.

puff……

The old man in a scarlet robe changed his face drastically, and blood spurted wildly from his mouth.

The combined blow of ten people slammed on him like a raging wave, causing him to be knocked back, his lungs ached, and he fell directly to the ground with serious injuries.

"This formation is invincible to the existence of the six realms..." He looked ugly.

Chi!
Suddenly, a snow-white knife light appeared, like the scorching sun dispelling the snow, and the light mist subsided and dissolved.

But soon, the weird chanting sound sounded again, and the light and mist skyrocketed.

The figure of Uncle Ying who was slashing down with a long knife froze for a moment, his palm trembled, and the long knife fell again, piercing the void, and the aura of magical powers filled the air.

Faintly, a terrifying long knife surrounded by black flames appeared, the souls of the dead were floating under the knife, and the dead air spread, trying to split the formation force in front of them.

Clang! ! !

The knife cut straight down and landed on one of the figures. However, the imaginary scene of the long knife splashing blood did not happen, but the sound of gold and stone colliding.

"Sure enough, it's not the real body, but a puppet..."

Uncle Ying's face darkened, knowing that something was wrong, he was about to retreat violently.

After experiencing the incident in the deep mountains of Qingshui Village last time, he knew that he couldn't fall into the opponent's plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain.

Although I don't know where these assassins came from, the purpose of the opponent in front of him must be to hold him back.

"It's too late for you to understand, just stay for a while." An old and deep laugh sounded.

Uncle Ying's face was ugly.

I saw that the postures of these ten figures sitting cross-legged changed again, and there was a blazing glow on their bodies, just like the changes of stars in the sky.

The mist of light spread, and the energy fluctuations were astonishing, trapping everyone who rushed.

The people behind the scenes manipulating these puppets are even stronger than he imagined.

To be able to operate so many puppets by one person, and even form an formation, the power of the soul must be huge. It is not clear how long the other party can last.
