Chapter 698
Fang Yuan said so, and did so.
Ever since Mo Feiliu and the elders of Bahuang City were sent away, he never mentioned this matter again. He just prepared silently, seldom stayed in the pass, and did not prepare for the grand edict ceremony ten days later. Instead, he often left the pass to search everywhere, sometimes with Jiaolong or Guan Ao, and sometimes with just a white cat.
No one knows exactly what he is doing, but some people say that he has been wandering around like this, and every time he comes back, he brings a lot of precious medicines and elixirs. It is said that he is still in the belly of the devil, setting up a large formation, planting medicines in it himself, and observing its changes. Apart from these, the most weird thing is that he has been feeding many precious medicines and elixirs to the cat.
The white cat is also arrogant, and Ren Fangyuan chases after him every day with all kinds of rare and precious medicines, and he looks too lazy to take care of him...
...but the Jiaolong next door wearing pants is really greedy!
In Zhenguan Moli, some rumors began to come out, that the majestic Zhenmoguan guard didn't care about military affairs at all, and he didn't come out to train soldiers, but went out to collect medicine every day, and regarded this dangerous demon side as a big medicine garden!
The old deacon was specially sent out by Wangqing Island to take care of Fang Yuan. Whether it was Fang Yuan's reputation, image, or way of doing things, he cared about him and always reminded him. If he had heard such rumors in normal times, he would have blown his beard in anger. But now, after hearing what Fang Yuan said, he didn't care about it anymore, and just started to do things according to Fang Yuan's orders.
After all, Wangqing Island is a holy place, and it is impossible not to have its own power in such a key place as the devil's edge. As the old deacon started to move, gradually, there began to be an astonishing sound of wind, which suddenly appeared and blew across the vast devil's edge...
"Wangqingdao Daozi, actually want to take out thirty-six dragon souls at once to give to the soldiers of the devil?"
"Those dragon souls, aren't they the ones that Daozi Wangqingdao wants to take privately and use to curb his own power?"
"How could you be so generous and give away half of it all at once?"
"Hehe, so what if you take it out, how many people are staring at it, the elders of Bahuang City, the true biography, the ancient Taoism of Kyushu Prefecture, the arrogance of the Seven Great Sacred Lands, they themselves are not enough to fit their teeth, so what's the matter with us little ghosts?"
"Yes, I, Sun Laojiu, dare to bet that these dragon souls have already been divided up before they are brought out..."
"..."
"..."
At the beginning, it was reported that the dragon soul was brought out, and most of the reactions of the cultivators were like this. Although the dragon soul is a good thing and everyone wants it, most of the soldiers on the side of the devil didn't think about it at all.
"The most exciting place is here..."
People who said this often pretended to be mysterious, and took a sip of wine in their spare time, unable to hide the look on their faces: "It is said that this Daoist of Wangqingdao, for some reason, has made up his mind and put down his cruel words. ..."
"I'm going, it's impossible!"
"It's absolutely true, this is what my uncle's cousin's cousin's concubine's godfather heard from his second uncle!"
"But it's still unreasonable..."
Someone still couldn't figure it out no matter what, and sighed: "Give the dragon soul to those Daotong and aristocratic families, and the other party will remember him no matter what. This is the foundation he needs most now, but what's the use of giving these mysterious armors?"
"..."
"..."
As this rumor spread, all the cultivators heard it, half-believed, and endless guesses spread.
"Some people say that this Daozi of Wangqing Island was born in the Xiaoxianmen. On the way to practice, he was really angry with those aristocratic families and great traditions. Therefore, he was naturally resistant and paranoid. That's why he developed such arrogance. He insisted on fighting against others. Wouldn't it be good to exchange a good dragon soul for endless connections and resources, but it must be given to people from the same background as him, it's really stupid..."
When this kind of rumors appeared, the person who said these words had a sense of ridicule. It seemed that he felt a sense of superiority spontaneously after seeing some big shots make some mistakes, but he didn't expect that the response he got was different from what he thought.
"Shut your beak, don't blame me for being rude to you!"
"That's right, this Holy Land Daoist really cares about the world. He is willing to give this kind of dragon soul to us people of origin because he knows that we are passionate. Why do you dare to think about him with such dirty thoughts?"
"..."
"..."
As this rumor became more and more true and spread more and more widely, Fang Yuan's reputation became bigger and bigger.
This incident gradually set off an astonishing wave in the Devil's Edge!
Countless people were discussing, even looking for various ways to inquire, and Fang Yuan's reputation, amidst the rumors, actually became better and better, and suddenly there were many unexpected people supporting him. These people may not have much right to speak on the bright side, but they have formed a considerable influence at the bottom, like a gust of wind, blowing from the bottom to the top!
And at this juncture, another incident spread.
Just ten years ago, on the snowfield, someone discovered the tomb of the third sword demon, Wusheng Sword Tomb. Those aristocratic families, for the justice of the world, dedicated all the resources in the sword tomb to the demon side, and gained an excellent reputation for a while.
But now, some rumors are gradually appearing that those resources do not actually come from the Wusheng Sword Tomb, but from many ancient families, and those families willingly hand over so many resources are actually related to Fang Yuan.
This statement was extremely detailed and well-founded, and it was quickly recognized by many people.
"This matter may sound absurd to you, but the fact is that those aristocratic families built underground palaces on the snowy plains at the time, preparing to escape the catastrophe, but they were discovered by Daozi Wangqingdao. !"
"I asked Master about this matter, but the old man just kept silent and acquiesced in this matter!"
"Do you still remember the batch of resources back then? Someone said at the time why the resources in the tomb of the Wusheng Sword Tomb in ancient times, and the methods of refining spirits and elixirs are actually the prevailing methods now. Isn't this obvious evidence?"
Someone raised an objection at this time: "Seeing that what you said has a nose and eyes, it seems like you saw it with your own eyes. It has been ten years since this incident, who can tell the truth from the fake, isn't it just made up on purpose by Wangqingdao in order to build a reputation?"
"Grandson, if you say this again, I, Old Nine Sun, will kill you immediately..."
"you……"
"From today onwards, I, Sun Laojiu, will no longer allow others to say a bad word about Fang Daozi, and use this head as a gamble!"
"..."
"..."
The old deacon of Wangqing Island seems to be very good at this. All kinds of rumors can no longer be restrained. It is the most difficult to distinguish between true and false. What's more, these rumors have become a kind of power in themselves, blowing up directly around the devil, and even affecting Bahuang City. I don't know how many elders and generals have rushed back to Bahuang City to ask the city owner whether these rumors are true or not...
But the Lord of Bahuang City surprisingly remained silent on this matter, neither saying yes nor no.
And his silent attitude undoubtedly aroused more speculation.
"It seems that the leader of the Six Paths has a big plan..."
In Bahuang City, in the Immortal Palace where His Royal Highness Prince Jiuchongtian was, he was playing chess with a white-faced and beardless middle-aged man, holding a chess piece in his hand, and said with a smile: "He has gained a great reputation among the demons. This is a good time to make friends with Bahuang City and all the generals, but he insists on doing things. I can only say that what he likes is far from what Bahuang City and the family can give..."
Prince Li Taiyi of Jiuchongtian looked very calm and said softly, "Then what do you think he wants?"
"Then it depends on what the Bahuang City and the family can give him..."
The middle-aged man with a white face and no beard said with a faint smile: "Bahuang City can give him the position of god general, making it easier for him to make achievements in this devil's side, and those aristocratic families can give him recognition, so that he can officially become a member of the aristocratic family, and if he doesn't like it..."
He said with a smile, "It can only be said that he not only wants to make achievements, but also wants to make great achievements, not only wants to become a family, but also wants to surpass the family..."
Li Taiyi's expression did not change, and he said lightly: "Then what have you done in the past few days?"
The white-faced man smiled and said: "Actually, I didn't do anything, I just pushed him secretly. Now those mysterious armors are about to praise him to the sky, and the aristocratic families are about to hate him to the bone. His idea now is to use the power of those humble mysterious armors to help him rise to the top, so he did not hesitate to exchange thirty-six dragon souls. Hate him!"
Li Taiyi lowered his eyebrows, and said lightly: "Are you so sure?"
The white-faced man smiled and said: "The six great generals on the side of the devil, the four great elders of the Bahuang city, and the various families and orthodoxy that have business in the side of the devil will not agree with his matter. The attitude of these people, the lord of the city of Bahuang can't ignore it, let alone him?"
Li Taiyi raised his head, and said with a half smile but not a smile: "So, there will be a good show tomorrow?"
The white-faced man smiled without saying a word, just looked at the chessboard, and said calmly: "It's settled, Your Highness!"
Li Taiyi looked at him calmly for a while, then suddenly said: "You are the great elder of the Immortal League who is in charge of the Dongming Hall of the Immortal League, the number one counselor under the sage, and a big man who shakes the world with every gesture. How can you give yourself up and come to help me with advice?"
"Because he killed one of my favorite disciples, we have old grudges!"
The white-faced man answered very easily.
But Li Taiyi didn't listen to this at all, and just looked at him indifferently.
The white-faced man smiled helplessly, and said, "Okay, okay, to be honest, of course it's because he holds the dragon soul!"
Mrs. Li raised her head and glanced at him.
The Great Elder Dongmingtang looked serious, and said calmly: "The use of the Dragon Soul is related to the general trend of the world. Not only does His Royal Highness need to cultivate supernatural powers, but I also need to use them to do something that is truly beneficial to the world. Unfortunately, a saint does not agree with my views, so the Immortal Alliance is on the sidelines, so I have to rely on some of His Highness's power..."
Mrs. Li withdrew her gaze and focused on the chessboard.
After a while, he said calmly: "Are all the people in your fairy alliance so good at playing chess?"
