Chapter 261 Thanks

The paper talisman contained some of Qu Xungui's memories. Mu Xingqiu didn't know how to offer the talisman, so he put it on the table and didn't move for a long time. All he could think about was Qi Wushang's invitation.

It was unusual for the Giant Demon King to meet with a Taoist priest who inhaled air alone. Even if Mu Xingqiu was the greatest contributor to the defense of Duanliu City, he was not equal to the Giant Demon King. Moreover, Qi Wushang had learned about the existence of the Patriarch Tower and the high-level Taoist priests of Pangshan through the Black Phoenix, so there was no need to get entangled with the Taoist priest who inhaled air.

But Qi Wushang insisted on meeting only Mu Xingqiu. Hong Futian couldn't give an answer. His meeting with the Giant Demon King was very short, and he didn't know the other party's true thoughts.

The paper talisman on the table burned by itself. It turned out to be several voices, and a silence spell was cast to ensure that the sound would not spread too far. Mu Xingqiu walked over to hear it more clearly.

The first voice was Qu Xungui reading a book, which was obviously one of the ancient records of the Dragon Bin Society.

"The disciples of the Nianxin School are getting more and more crazy. Those female Taoist priests claim to have seen through the truth of the Taoism and spread their so-called new discoveries everywhere. They are all absurd statements. No normal person would believe them, but they are stubborn and refuse to admit their mistakes. Why did this happen? The Taoist priests of the nine Taoist sects were puzzled, and the great talisman masters had a view: the Nianxin School specializes in stirring up people's hearts, and they themselves are inevitably affected. The result of accumulation over time is madness. The wise great talisman masters have come up with a way to crack it..."

Qu Xungui's voice stopped abruptly. In the records of the Longbin Society, the status and role of talisman masters were elevated, and the Taoist priests were confused.

After a while, Qu Xungui began to read another paragraph.

"At first, Long Binhui thought the rumor was false, but various signs later showed that the rumor was very likely true: a descendant of the Heart of Mind, with the eighth level of inner elixir and illusion, actually defeated a Taoist priest who was in charge of the Moonlight. The occurrence of this impossible event caused great panic in the nine Taoist sects, and this might be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Long Binhui..."

Qu Xungui's purpose was just to arouse Mu Xingqiu's interest, even if Mu Xingqiu entered his mind and saw only such scattered fragments. What Mu Xingqiu was interested in was that in the two paragraphs selected by Qu Xungui, there was no mention of the frequent connections between the descendants of the Heart of Mind, which was obviously different from the focus of the Taoist priests.

The next is a conversation between Qu Xungui and a very high-ranking talisman master.

"Why would the demon species take a fancy to a small border town in Xijie Country? There is no reason?" Qu Xungui's voice asked.

Another voice answered: "The nine sects are still the same as before, unwilling to reveal too much information, but our Longbin Society has its own detailed records. Look, in the past ten thousand years, the demons have successfully invaded thirty-eight times.

Connect the places where they finally disappeared, what do you see?"

"A...curve, starting from the easternmost part of the Holy Symbol Dynasty, covering the twelve vassal states - you mean the demons are tracking something? This thing keeps moving, and now it just stops in Yelin Town?"

"The wisdom of the demons is not inferior to the sects. Countless demons gather together to rush out of the demon bell, which will greatly It would be foolish to waste energy without a purpose. What confuses me most is, is the object that the demon species has been tracking a person or an object? How did it find the trace from the void? It is of great significance to Longbin Society to investigate this matter clearly. Alas, I am old and have no time and energy to do such laborious work. I can only rely on you. The art of longevity may be in it..." This voice is very old, treating Qu Xungui, who was already more than 130 years old at the time, as a young man. Mu Xingqiu guessed that the speaker might be the chief talisman master of Longbin Society or a real controller of the royal family. The ashes of the paper talisman disappeared completely, and the memory that Qu Xungui gave to Mu Xingqiu ended here. Mu Xingqiu had to admit that he was a little moved. He guessed what conditions Qu Xungui would put forward: Taoist Pangshan could enter the mind of the great talisman master, and the great talisman master also had to find something from the mind of Taoist Pangshan. This deal is not fair. Qu Xungui may have known what he is looking for, but Mu Xingqiu is in a semi-confused state. Even if the truth is in front of him, it may be ignored as an unimportant detail.

Mu Xingqiu temporarily put Qu Xungui aside. He will have a decisive battle with the demon army tomorrow. He can't think too much at this time, not to mention that he has to prepare for a dialogue with Qi Wushang.

Shortly after dawn, the head of the Five Elements Department summoned the Taoists to discuss the matter together, allowing everyone to express their opinions. Mu Xingqiu stood at the door. He was the one who was going to talk to the giant demon king Qi Wushang, but he didn't have to say much.

"Maybe this is a conspiracy, another trick of Qi Wushang." Yang Qingyin learned the thinking of mortals and guessed so.

Xin Youtao shared her feelings. "Release a simple magic? It sounds like a trap. When Qi Wushang was in Pangshan, he used magic that none of the nine sects knew about."

"Hong Futian is also a strange person. He has no stance at all. He jumps back and forth between the sects, mortals and demons. I don't trust him. Maybe it's because he lives among humans..." Shen Hao shut up in time and didn't say the word "non-demon".

Xiao Qingtao's face was slightly cold. "Then just refuse. Tomorrow is the decisive battle. Brother Xiaoqiu doesn't need to take risks for this."

After discussing it over and over again, everyone's eyes fell on Mu Xingqiu.

"I want to hear what Qi Wushang has to say. It's always a good thing to have the opportunity to understand the enemy's intentions." Mu Xingqiu had been peeking out the door, and then turned around, "There are two leaders here, Qi Wushang will not waste his magic on me."

Shen Jixian supported Mu Xingqiu and cast a series of spells in the room, which was enough to save Mu Xingqiu's life at the critical moment.

Not long after, news came from the Fu Lu Master that the demon army was approaching Duanliu City. In fact, the soldiers and civilians on both sides of the river could even see the demon fire mountain shrouded in the unclean air from a high place, like A monster with eyes all over its body, its roar can be heard hundreds of miles away.

Yang Qingyin and others also went out of the city to check the terrain. Only Mu Xingqiu stayed in the inn, waiting for Qi Wushang to visit with his magic skills.

Hong Futian walked into the room, "Are you ready?"

Mu Xingqiu nodded and pointed to a dozen magical artifacts in the room, "They are just in case and will not reveal the content of the conversation."

Near noon, a thin stream of unclean air separated from two hundred miles away and shot toward Duanliu City very quickly. It broke through the interception of dozens of flying talismans along the way and only paused briefly above Duanliu City. Then they gathered into a round cover of dark clouds several feet wide, hovering over the inn.

In the room, Hong Futian suddenly sat on a chair, his expression was dull, his eyes kept turning around, and then he spoke. What came out was another voice, low and dignified, with the determination of someone who is used to giving orders. .

"I see you again, Taoist priest. Please don't misunderstand me. I am neither persuading you to surrender nor threatening. I just want to express my gratitude to you before the decisive battle."

There was no hint of gratitude in Qi Wushang's voice, as if he was waiting for the Taoist priest to shed tears of gratitude for this.

"Thank you? Thank me for leading you to Duanliu City?" Mu Xingqiu was confused.

"No, I want to thank you for saving the Demon Queen's life and sending her to me."

Mu Xingqiu thought of the brown deer that the Demon Queen transformed into. When he was in Muma Valley, he had indeed stopped the black wolf from devouring the brown deer. More than a month ago, in order to lure the Demon King away from the Instant Stage, Mu Xingqiu killed the brown deer. Throw it back to Qi Wushang.

"That night a few years ago, I was supposed to eat the Demon Queen to restore the Demonic Pill, but because of you, I failed and got separated from her. In the past few years, I hated you to the core because the Demon Queen transformed into a demon. Deer can only maintain her memory for less than a day, and I can no longer find any trace of her. I can only endure the body of an ordinary beast, and almost never get over again. All because of your meddling, the entire demon clan's plan almost failed. Falling short of success.”

There was no sense of gratitude in Qi Wushang's voice, and it was full of anger, which was in sharp contrast to Hong Futian's dull face. "Blessed by the ancient gods, my stupid brother had no idea about the whole plan. He actually came to my door and bumped into me a few years later. He used his body to restore my demon power. I no longer have to devour the demon queen. The demon clan The plan finally worked out, even better than the original plan a few years ago, so I forgive your rashness.”

"And you also found the Demon Queen and sent her to me. If not, she would have died in the hands of the Demon Mountain or demon soldiers like the entire Pangshan Taoism. Everything was arranged by the Ancient God, and the Ancient God liked me. Give me a reward and prevent me from losing my love. You are a tool of the ancient god, and I have to thank you."

"The ancient god's intentions are elusive. .anh.c It used you to give me rewards, and also used you to set up obstacles for me, leading me to such a small place. I only heard about Duanliu City for the first time a month ago. Name. But I accept the arrangement of the ancient god. If he wants us to meet, then let’s meet. But what is the purpose of the ancient god? "

Mu Xingqiu finally got an opportunity to insert a sentence, "I am not a believer of the ancient gods, and I have never thought about saving the Demon Queen. Everything is a coincidence. Your thanks are given to the wrong person. Tomorrow's decisive battle will prove everything."

Qi Wushang was silent for a moment, "The ancient god is warning me that the southwest is not the main battlefield. According to some rumors, there has been internal strife in Luanjing Mountain, and I really don't need to destroy it. And you are once again used by the ancient god to become my guide. Taoist priest, the power of ancient gods is not only reflected in believers!”

Hong Futian's whole body trembled violently, and then he woke up. Apparently he couldn't remember everything that happened just now, "What did he say?"

"He wants a decisive battle," Mu Xingqiu said.
