Chapter 761: Rebirth Shortens One's Lifespan

Without waiting for Ziqiong to express his opinion, Xu Bai asked in confusion, "This transaction is of great importance. It is understandable that you are here in person. But with your strength, it should be easy for you to hide your identity. Why..."

"Aren't you afraid that we, the Futian Society, will threaten you after knowing this?" Xu Bai stared at Ziqiong with burning eyes.

Ziqiong said indifferently, "Threat? Haha, don't get me wrong. Although I am here on behalf of the Five Elders Society, this doesn't mean anything."

"I am just running errands for you."

Ziqiong looked completely fearless, and this attitude made Xu Bai a little suspicious.

"Don't be surprised. After all, the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance is the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance of [Chuanfa Tianzun]. And I have only been loyal to Chuanfa from beginning to end. As for the rest, they are all insignificant things."

"As the saying goes, there are fifty great ways, and forty-nine heavenly evolutions. The Tianxuan Mirror wants to see through everything in the world, so there should be things in the world that are beyond its control."

"Otherwise, this [New Heaven] is imperfect."

Ziqiong looked up at the sky and explained slowly.

"So I did this, even if Tianzun knew, he would not blame me. Maybe he would reward me."

"Humph, but those ordinary people may not know my mind."

Although it was only a few short sentences, the amount of information contained in it was a bit terrifying. After this, Xu Bai fell into deep thought.

"Until you reach that level, it may not be a good thing for you to know too much." Not long after, Ziqiong Xianzun spoke and interrupted Xu Bai's thoughts.

With a casual gesture, he threw the [Empty Stone Mother] containing the traded materials over.

This time, no contract was signed.

It seemed that he was very confident in his own strength and was not afraid that Xu Bai would play any tricks.

However, Xu Bai still checked and verified the list of materials in the stone mother as usual before handing over the fifty [End Discs] that had been agreed upon in advance.

"This is the first batch. The rest will need to be delivered slowly in the future." Xu Bai explained.

The fifty End Stone Discs were not placed in the storage space. Instead, they were like thin pieces of paper, stacked together.

As the mind turned, they would separate by themselves and form individual individuals.

Ziqiong took one of the discs in his hand and observed it.

After a moment, he said thoughtfully: "This thing looks ordinary, but it can block the perception of the Tianxuan Treasure Mirror..."

"Interesting."

Putting away the End Disc, Ziqiong then explained: "For future transactions, other people will contact you. If you have any sudden emergency in Futian, you can also go to Liu Wenyu."

"But don't try to get involved with me. Although I don't care..."

"But if those people target you, even if I come forward, I can't protect you."

The figure of Ziqiong Immortal Venerable gradually faded, just like when he came, he left very suddenly.

"Senior, facing the aggressiveness of the Tianxuan Mirror, why did the Five Elders just give in again and again? There is not even a countermeasure?" Before the figure of Ziqiong Immortal Venerable was about to leave completely, Xu Bai asked.

Ziqiong did not answer, but just looked up at the sky vaguely.

Then disappeared.

"Huh?" Xu Bai also looked up at the sky.

After a moment, he was shocked.

This "sky" obviously does not refer to the Tianxuan Mirror.

Ziqiong Xianzun said that he was loyal to Chuanfa Tianzun from the beginning to the end.

Then his actions before leaving were also very obvious.

It's not that the Five Elders didn't want to counterattack.

It's just that now Chuanfa Tianzun is here, they don't dare.

In Xu Bai's mind, the sighing vision of Mr. Bai appeared again.

"There is an immortal road ahead that cannot be stepped on, Chuanfa Tianzun is above."

Xu Bai subconsciously clenched his hands: "In the last life, perhaps because of Chuanfa's departure, Ziqiong turned to the Five Elders again and became a pure spy."

"And in this life, I used the [Chaos] character formula to bring Chuanfa back, who had already left. Therefore, Ziqiong still insisted on his somewhat unique position. He did not completely act as a spy for the Five Elders."

In an instant, Xu Bai, who had sorted out the ins and outs of the matter, had many doubts in his heart.

That is the real purpose of Chuanfa.

If His ultimate goal is to transcend and leave the Xuanhuang Realm.

Even if he cares about the word "chaos" very much. After returning to search without any results, he should choose to leave again.

But now a long time has passed.

[Chuanfa Tianzun] seems to still stay in Xuanhuang Realm and has no signs of leaving.

"It seems that Xuanhuang Realm has a special meaning for Chuanfa. It cannot be abandoned at will."

"And the upgrade of Tianxuan Mirror in this world must be approved by Chuanfa himself. He needs Tianxuan Mirror to complete the transformation, but acquiesces to possible loopholes..."

"The way of heaven is flawed. So He also has to restrict Tianxuan Mirror."

...

Many possible guesses suddenly emerged in Xu Bai's mind.

Even though this body is favored by heaven and earth and has extraordinary talents. But it is still like seeing flowers in the fog, and it is impossible to guess Chuanfa's intentions.

His mind was a little confused. After returning to Tianling City, he was called over by Nangong Shirong again.

"Recently, there seem to be some bad rumors in the territory. You go and deal with it." Nangong Shirong only said this inexplicably.

In theory, Xu Bai was only the liaison envoy of Tianliangzhou.

It was natural for the Garrison or the Martial Arts Hall to take action when there were rumors. But Nangong Shirong only quietly handed the matter to him alone.

Xu Bai understood it instantly.

This matter should not be made a big deal, and it needs to be handled quickly and beautifully.

It was precisely because of his appreciation of Xu Bai's ability that Nangong Shirong gave him the task.

The boss has an order, and the subordinates naturally cannot refuse it.

"Don't worry, sir, I will do it properly." Xu Bai raised his head and promised.

After leaving under the other party's gaze, Xu Bai asked someone about it and found out what the "bad" rumors that Nangong Shirong mentioned were.

It turned out that in Tianliangzhou, there was a cultivator named Peng Qing who suddenly went crazy before his death and flew everywhere.

While flying around, he was also talking nonsense.

He said that he was supposed to live 500 years, but now he was only less than 400 years old and would die of old age.

There must be a thief who reduced his lifespan out of thin air.

Peng Qing cursed and then died suddenly in front of everyone.

And his death was extremely miserable, with blood flowing from all seven orifices, and he looked hundreds of years older in an instant.

His appearance changed from a middle-aged monk to a decadent old man in an instant.
