Mortal Bones

Yuxi Street, Yunsheng Tower.

This Yunsheng Tower is the inn where Xu Taiping and the others stayed.

With the appearance of Evil Lord Qing Tong and Li Yezhu wearing a cloak beside him, the originally bustling Yuxi Street suddenly became deserted.

Whether they were shopkeepers, shop assistants, or monks walking on the street, they all entered the shops and teahouses on both sides in a tacit understanding.

After the guests entered the room, the shopkeeper began to instruct the shopkeepers to install the door panels engraved with runes.

Old Dragon City is different from other places.

Whether they are pedestrians on the street or shopkeepers, they have long been accustomed to this kind of scene, so they can deal with it very easily.

Except for the shopkeeper of Yunshenglou.

Because at this moment, the green-eyed Evil Lord, who was covered in cyan mist, and Li Yezhu, who was wearing a cloak and covering his face, were standing in front of their building.

They want to close the door, but how dare they!

The head of Yunsheng Tower, with a smile on his face, said to Qingtong Evil Lord in a flattering tone:

"Lord Qingtong, please wait a moment. I have already sent someone to fetch Mr. Zhang!"

Although the shopkeeper tried his best to appear relaxed, his trembling legs still betrayed him.

Evil Lord Qingtong glanced at the big shopkeeper, and then said coldly:

"Your boss has already said hello to me, but even so, I will only give you ten breaths."

The Bronze Evil Lord raised his chin and said:

"You can count it yourself. If the count reaches ten and the boy hasn't come out yet, I will go upstairs."

Although Qingtong Evil Lord said this in an understatement, the pressure on him was increasing almost word for word.

Although the chief shopkeeper of Yunsheng Tower also had a small level of cultivation in Hope Heaven Realm, when faced with this pressure, both body and mind were already on the verge of collapse.

Seeing that the head shopkeeper of Yunshenglou had not made any move, Li Yezhu on the side urged impatiently:

"What are you still doing? Count!"

Because Li Yezhu used the power of his soul, the face of the head shopkeeper of Yunshenglou immediately turned blood red when he scolded him.

His eyes bulged in an instant and became bloodshot.

It's like it's about to explode.

Immediately, the head shopkeeper of Yunshenglou suppressed the surging blood in his body and began to speak loudly with a trembling voice:

"one!"

"two!"

"three!"

While shouting, he also began to send messages to the workers in the building, asking them to urge Xu Taiping to come downstairs.

…

Inside the building.

When a young shopkeeper saw that Xu Taiping had taken the initiative to go downstairs, he immediately said with a grateful face:

"Thank you Mr. Zhang for your understanding!"

Xu Taiping shook his head and smiled:

"Thanks to you Yunshenglou for taking me in last night. Otherwise, we might not even have a place to sleep."

After killing Liang Chengshan and Dong Qiushui in succession last night, when he returned to the original inn, the door of the inn had been closed.

The innkeeper would rather refund the money than let them stay again.

In the end, the owner of Yizhu Tower came forward and brought him to Yunsheng Tower, where he was able to stay.

Seeing that Xu Taiping was so reasonable, the little shopkeeper became even more grateful. He immediately took Xu Taiping and the others downstairs and explained:

"Mr. Zhang, it's not that our Yunsheng Tower is unwilling to save anyone. It's because the Evil Lord Qing Tong is too powerful. Let alone us servants, even our Yunsheng Tower's boss, True Lord Yunhe, is not his." opponent!"

The little shopkeeper then said with indignation:

"I borrowed their Moon Shadow Stone to see what happened last night this morning. Liang Chengshan and Dong Qiushui both deserve to be killed!"

Not only him, but also the store clerks passing by, after recognizing Xu Taiping, they all raised their hands and said——

"Master Zhang, Master Zhang, you killed well last night!"

"Master Zhang, I can't keep you in the building, I'm sorry."

"Master Zhang, take care!"

Although they were just some words of comfort, it was rare to be able to say these words under the terrifying pressure of the Evil Lord with Blue Eyes.

Xu Taiping clasped his fists in return and murmured with some emotion in his heart:

"With such a group of chivalrous people under his command, it's no wonder that the Master of Yi Zhu Tower admires True Lord Yunhe so much."

Xu Taiping had heard from the owner of Yizhu Tower last night that the owner of Yunsheng Tower, True Lord Yunhe, was a very rare righteous person in this side of the Dry Stone Sea.

But he didn't expect that the shopkeepers and shop assistants under him all had chivalrous hearts like him.

Fairy Lingyue also sighed at this time:

"It seems that no matter how dirty and depraved the place is, there will always be flawless flowers blooming."

Xu Taiping thought deeply and said:

"Uncle Jiu also said when he taught me how to practice swordsmanship, you can scold this world as dark, depraved, and hopelessly filthy, but you must never lose hope in it."

"Because no matter how hopeless the world is, there is always a corner, and there are always a few people there who try to light a torch and illuminate the world."

While he was talking, Xu Taiping had already followed the young shopkeeper to the first floor of Yunsheng Building.

Through the gap in the door, you can vaguely see the head shopkeeper of Yunshenglou, as well as the figures of Evil Lord with Blue Eyes and Li Yezhu beside him.

It's just that this figure is much taller than the big shopkeeper, and his whole body exudes extremely terrifying aura fluctuations.

From a distance, the two of them seemed to be a wall, sealing the door of Yunsheng Tower.

After confirming with Bai Yu that the person standing next to Evil Lord Qingtong was Li Yezhu, the Ten Demon Generals of Jiuyuan, Xu Taiping frowned and said to Fairy Lingyue in his heart:

"Sister Lingyue, with Li Yezhu here, I'm afraid we can't just hand Sister Zhu Songyu's jade slip to the Green Eyed Evil Lord."

Zhu Songyu's jade slip may reveal the secret of the entrance to the Tenth Demon Abyss.

Once the secret of the Tenth Demon Abyss is known to the Nine Abyss Demons, it will be an immeasurable disaster for the entire Shangqing cultivation world.

Fairy Lingyue agreed very much:

"If it really doesn't work, use another piece of peach meat. I will kill Li Yezhu with one sword to eliminate future troubles."

There are a total of five fairy peaches produced by the earth fruit. One was eaten in Youyuntian to deal with Huoyun Temple, and two were used to kill the Yin Demon Beast in Yuhu Street a few days ago.

Now Xu Taiping has the last two left.

According to the original plan, Xu Taiping was going to save the peach meat of these two fairy peaches until she broke through the realm of transformation and Sister Lingyue helped her kill the Heavenly Demon.

But the current situation obviously doesn't allow him to keep both of these fairy peaches until that day.

Xu Taiping nodded calmly and said:

"Okay."

At this moment, the number in the mouth of the shopkeeper at the door just counted to "ten".

Xu Taiping did not hesitate any more, just took a step forward and came to the door.

Xu Taiping, standing at the door, shouted to the outside:

"Shopkeeper, I'm here, no need to count anymore."
