Chapter 1168 Tracking

"A spiritual beast with thunder attributes."

Liang Yan thought about it secretly for a while, and finally nodded and said, "I do owe you a favor tonight. Thanks to His Highness, I will help you with this favor!"

"good!"

Xuanyuan Lingwei clapped her hands and said with a smile: "Fellow Daoist Liang is really happy! We have been secretly preparing for the roundup of the Rakshasa Demon Cow. Once the time is right, we will send someone to notify Friend Liang. Please help us when the time comes!"

"Don't worry, since Liang has agreed to this, he will never break his promise."

Liang Yan smiled slightly, cupped his hands to Xuanyuan Lingwei and said, "If there is nothing else, Liang will leave for now. Please keep tonight's matter a secret for me and never let it out."

"This is natural."

Xuanyuan Lingwei nodded, and then ordered to the thin man beside her: "Although Ling Chongxiao has left Guangling City, there is no guarantee that he will not leave an informant nearby. Take Fellow Daoist Liang out of the secret passage in the backyard, remember Leave no trace."

"yes!"

The thin man responded, hugged Liang Yan, and walked straight out of the palace without saying much.

"Liang, say goodbye!"

Liang Yan smiled, turned around and followed the thin man out of the palace door, disappearing into the night a moment later.

It wasn't until he left the princess's mansion that the people in the palace spoke again.

Among them, Zishan pouted her little mouth and said with an annoyed look: "What a bad temper this person has. Her Highness obviously saved his life. It's okay for him to be ungrateful. He has to think twice about even offering a favor, right?" Too arrogant?"

After hearing this, Xuanyuan Lingwei, who was sitting on the collapse, shook her head and said with a smile: "Zishan, you don't understand. People with ability are generally arrogant. It is extremely rare for him to agree to help. Besides, even today Without us, he might not have died in Ling Chongxiao's hands."

"impossible!"

Zishan shouted: "He is only in the middle stage of Tongxuan, and 'Confucian God General' has already overcome one disaster and three disasters in the Transformation Tribulation Realm. The gap between the two sides is like the difference between clouds and mud. Let's look at General Ling." He looks so menacing, if it weren't for Her Royal Highness the Princess today, this person would definitely die!"

"Then have you ever thought about why Liang Yan is still standing in front of us alive without any injuries after they fought all the way?"

"This" Zishan seemed to be confused by the question, and said with some uncertainty: "Perhaps the 'Confucian God General' did not use all his strength before, but just had the mentality of a cat catching a mouse, and deliberately teased him?"

Xuanyuan Lingwei shook his head and said with a serious face: "You don't understand Ling Chongxiao very well. Although this person appears to be a modest gentleman, in fact he is very deep and ruthless. The principle he pursues is: 'A lion fights a rabbit with the same tactics. Go all out! Liang Yan was able to escape from his hands, not because of luck or the other party's mercy!"

"What does Your Highness mean?" Zheng Gongbu on the side suddenly thought of something, and his eyes flashed.

"Mr. Zheng thought well. I am afraid that this person's true strength has far exceeded the peak of Tongxuan, enough to be comparable to the monks in the Transformation Tribulation Realm!" Xuanyuan Lingwei said in a deep voice.

"How is it possible?" Zi Shan still didn't believe it, and shouted from the side: "He doesn't even have the ability to sense heaven and man, how can he compete with the monks in the Transformation Tribulation Realm? Let alone the 'Confucian God General' who has already passed through He is a master of three disasters in one!"

"'Heavenly Sensation' is indeed a watershed. It is difficult for thousands of monks to overcome it, but it does not mean that everyone is incapable of it. Some magical powers may have such heaven-defying power." This time it was Zheng Gongbu who said slowly.

"You may not know."

Xuanyuan Lingwei then said: "The formation I set up outside the house seems simple, but the formation equipment used in the formation was given by my father. The monks below the level of robbery, even if their cultivation has reached the peak of Tongxuan , there is no way to break it. But this person is able to break it easily with ease. This kind of strength is already shocking. "

After she finished speaking, Zheng Gongbu and Zishan fell silent at the same time.

After a long time, I heard Mr. Zheng sigh and say: "I'm old, I'm old! Alas, your highness has a keen eye, and I am ashamed of myself. As your highness said, this person is now a hidden dragon in the abyss, and he will soar soon. With his current strength, even if we cannot make friends with him, we must not make enemies with him!"

"exactly."

Xuanyuan Lingwei nodded and smiled: "This is why I want to protect him in front of Ling Chongxiao, and this person still plays a big role in our current plan."

"Your Highness means"

"Don't forget, the second brother is now in control of the government, and many of the twelve generals are on his side. Now there is only one general who is willing to contact us, but the tree is big and attracts the wind. This time we must not let it happen. He came forward."

Xuanyuan Lingwei said slowly: "In comparison, Liang Yan has a high level of cultivation, his strength is comparable to that of a divine general, and he has nothing to do with Xuanyuan City. If he helps us, he will not arouse others' suspicion. "

"good!"

Zheng Gongbu and Zishan nodded at the same time, especially Zishan, who no longer had the initial resistance to Liang Yan.

"Okay, that's it for today. After you go back, you must step up preparations for the Rakshasa Demonic Cow. Once the time is right, we can set off."

Xuanyuan Lingwei waved her hand, a look of tiredness already showing on her face.

Seeing this, Zheng Gongbu and Zishan took their orders and exited the palace.

Let's say that Liang Yan left the princess's mansion and followed the thin man into a secret underground passage in the palace.

There were many traps in the secret passage, and they were quite powerful. Fortunately, the man took the customs clearance talisman and led the way, so nothing dangerous happened.

The two of them walked around in the secret passage for half a stick of incense before walking out of a small alley in the south of the city.

"Thank you, fellow Taoist, for leading the way!" Liang Yan cupped his fists and smiled at the thin man.

"Fellow Daoist Liang, there is no need to be polite."

The emaciated man returned the gift and slowly said, "Speaking of which, I would like to thank you more. If it weren't for Fellow Daoist Liang's generous intervention, Tan Lili would have died in the Hundred Thousand Mountains."

"Tan Lili?" Liang Yan was slightly startled and said doubtfully: "Your Excellency"

"I'm Tan Youli, Tan Lili is my brother." The thin man chuckled.

"So you are brothers!"

Liang Yan looked this man up and down and felt a little strange. Although the two were brothers, their cultivation levels were so different. The elder brother looked like a young master, but the younger brother was already gray-haired.

Tan Youli seemed to understand what he was thinking. He shook his head helplessly and said, "Although Tan Youli is not as good as me in cultivation now, he is a brother once and always. To me, he is the dearest to me." Existence. Fellow Daoist Liang saved my brother's life, which is equivalent to saving my life. No matter what orders you have in the future, as long as it does not harm Your Highness, I will try my best to do it!"

"I'm serious, it's just a little effort."

Liang Yan waved his hand and said with a smile: "I'll say goodbye today. We'll see you later!"

"See you later!"

Neither of them wanted to talk too much in this place, so they simply said goodbye, then left the alley and went in different directions.

Liang Yan didn't go wandering anywhere else. He used the Tianji Pearl to cover his aura, returned to his original appearance, and returned to the guest room of the Wenxiang Chamber of Commerce.

He sat cross-legged on his bed and meditated, but his mind could not calm down.

This trip to the dark market did not expect to involve so many things, which made him feel a little strange.

The monk who called himself "Fat Wang" whom I met in the dark market at the beginning, did he have the holy energy of mountains and rivers in his hands? Why did he collect everyone's spiritual energy?

There is also the hunchbacked man and the eagle-nosed old man in the Taoist temple. What are the origins of these two people, and why does his Black Lotus Sword react to that person?

These people are full of suspicions, and they all seem to have their own purposes, especially the hunchbacked man and the hawk-nosed old man. These two people are also searching for the holy energy of mountains and rivers, and at the same time they seem to be avoiding someone.

Liang Yan thought for a while and felt that these questions would not be answered for a while, but fortunately, he finally learned from Ling Chongxiao that the clues to the holy energy of mountains and rivers were most likely hidden in the Jiugong Chamber of Commerce.

"Nine Palaces Chamber of Commerce."

Liang Yan murmured to himself. In his memory, this chamber of commerce was a dark horse. The elders and worshipers inside were very mysterious and rarely appeared outside.

Even colleagues like Wenxiang Chamber of Commerce don’t know them well.

"Forget it. It seems that I am the only one who can go there in person. I want to see what is the mystery of this Jiugong Chamber of Commerce!"

Liang Yan meditated in the Wenxiang Chamber of Commerce for two days. Early on the third day, he got up, opened the door, and walked outside.

Unexpectedly, Li Xiran got the news a long time ago and arrived just in time. Before he could leave the yard, he saw his apprentice running in.

"Master, did you gain anything from your trip to the dark market?"

Li Xiran and he were masters and apprentices in name, but in fact they were friends. There was no courtesy between them, so they asked each other as soon as they met.

“It’s quite rewarding”

Liang Yan didn't intend to hide it from her, and said via message: "The thing I'm looking for is most likely at the Jiugong Chamber of Commerce."

"Nine Palaces Chamber of Commerce?"

Li Xiran thought for a while and said: "This chamber of commerce is very mysterious. It is said that they have been to Fengdu City before, but I don't know whether it is true or not. Are you sure that thing is in the Jiugong Chamber of Commerce?"

"Not sure." Liang Yan shook his head first, and then smiled: "But as long as there is a one percent chance, I will give it a try. After all, my sword cultivation path has now reached a bottleneck. If Guangling City really has the holy spirit of mountains and rivers, so I am determined to win it!"

Li Xiran also laughed after hearing this, and said: "Okay, so master, when you go to the Jiugong Chamber of Commerce this time, do you plan to do it openly or secretly?"

"Be polite first, then attack." Liang Yan thought for a while and said: "First, visit the houses in the name of the Chamber of Commerce to see if you can get anything out of their mouths, or see if there are any clues. If you really can't find any clues, Then sneak in secretly and take a look."

"In this case, Master needs me this time." Li Xiran said quickly after hearing this: "You are not familiar with many things in the Chamber of Commerce. This time you are visiting in the name of the Chamber of Commerce. It will not be easy to bring me with you. Something went wrong.”

"That's fine."

Liang Yan nodded, and suddenly thought of something again. He raised his hand and patted the wooden house on his waist, releasing Li Xiaosong.

Today, Li Xiaosong cannot transform into a human form. Due to the constant devouring of flames, his body has gained weight. There are golden lines on his fur, and his eyes are very different from before.

Li Xiran didn't recognize her at first sight, and it wasn't until Li Xiaosong called her that he realized.

"You are Xiaosong!" There was surprise in the voice.

"it's me!"

Li Xiaosong patted his chest and shouted proudly: "Sister Xiran, how are you? My level is not low, right?"

"Haha, I didn't expect you to condense the golden elixir too!"

Li Xiran smiled and held Li Xiaosong in his arms, smoothed her hair, and asked a little strangely: "Why are you like this? Why don't you return to your human body?"

"this."

Li Xiaosong was a little embarrassed, but when faced with Li Xiran's question, he could only answer truthfully: "There seems to be something wrong with my body. Ever since I condensed the golden elixir, I have been unable to turn into a human form. Although I don't know why, but wait... In the future, when your realm is high, there will naturally be a way to change back, right?"

Hearing that Li Xiaosong could not transform back into a human body, Li Xiran suddenly felt a little funny and at the same time felt a little distressed. He smoothed the hair on her back and touched the civet cat until his eyes narrowed slightly, looking like he was enjoying it very much.

"How are Ji Hang these days?" Liang Yan suddenly asked.

"She has been practicing in the Chamber of Commerce these days, making rapid progress, and no longer causing trouble everywhere." Li Xiran replied.

"Um."

Liang Yan nodded and ordered to the civet cat in her arms: "Xiaosong, stay here and help me watch over Ji Hang. Don't let her go out, and don't let anyone else get close to her."

"I knew it would be boring to call me out."

Li Xiaosong yawned in Li Xiran's arms, then kicked off his legs, jumped onto the courtyard wall, flicked his big tail, and walked leisurely to where Ji Hang was.

Ji Hang is now Liang Yan's trump card, and may be able to use it against Sun Buer in the future, and whether he can use it or not, he cannot let her be captured by Sun Buer.

Since Li Xiran wants to go to the Jiugong Chamber of Commerce with him, he should leave Li Xiaosong to look after Ji Hang so that he can feel more at ease.

After settling everything, Liang Yan and Li Xiran left the Wenxiang Chamber of Commerce together.

In Guangling City, there is a mansion that occupies a large area but is relatively quiet.

The mansion is heavily guarded, but very few people go out. Even the monks around don't know who lives in the mansion.

Only a small number of monks in the Chamber of Commerce or the guards of Guangling City know that this is the location of the Jiugong Chamber of Commerce.

This morning, two people came outside the house, a man and a woman.

Among them, the man is wearing a gold-trimmed military robe and is a bit bulky, while the woman is wearing a floral lily skirt and is dressed as a maid. She looks like a master and servant.
