Chapter 726 Empty Frame

It wasn't until Qingyang helped rescue the Duanmu Fei siblings and Duanmu Zhong sent the Duanmu Fei siblings to a safe place that they remembered that there were many low-level monks in the Duanmu family, so they organized them all over, hoping to play some role. .

Although this group of low-level monks did not help, they became the last straw to drive away Ximen Ying and others. Seeing these people coming, Duanmu Song finally breathed a sigh of relief and asked: "Duanmu Zhong, young master Are you and Miss okay?"

"Don't worry, old man. I have arranged the young master and young lady in a safe place, but they have been restrained and cannot move for the time being." Duanmu Zhong replied.

Duanmusong nodded and said: "The restriction issue is easy to solve, just send them to me. In addition, the protective formations inside and outside the city lord's palace must be restored as soon as possible to prevent others from taking advantage of the loopholes."

With Duanmu Song, the old man of the Duanmu family, everyone had a backbone, and things were quickly arranged. Some went to transport Duanmu Fei and his sister, some dispersed around to clean up the ruins, and some directly followed Duanmu Zhong to recover. The protective formation of the city lord's mansion.

After arranging these chores, Duanmu Song turned to look at Qingyang and said with a smile: "Fellow Taoist Qingyang, this time you saved my Duanmu family by yourself. You are really kind to my Duanmu family." Hai, please stay for a few days, fellow Taoist Qingyang, and I will definitely give you a surprise."

Qingyang knew that such a big thing had just happened in the Duanmu family, and he would definitely not be able to take action for a while. Moreover, Duanmu Song was seriously injured and needed to be healed as soon as possible. The idea of ​​​​discussing the Yuan Dan technique with him would definitely come soon. If it can't be realized, we can only wait a few days.

Qingyang didn't have much hope for the surprise Duanmu Song said. He had already cleaned out the Duanmu family's treasury before and found nothing that made his eyes light up. This Wucheng Island was remote and remote, so it was difficult to find anything that made him happy. Is there anything that surprises you?

Qingyang nodded lightly, without saying anything else, turned around and headed towards the small courtyard where he lived. When Qingyang's figure disappeared into the distance, Duanmu Song suddenly opened his mouth and spurted out a bunch of blood. His whole body went limp and he collapsed towards the ground.

Duan Mu Tong, who was next to him, was startled. He quickly helped Duan Mu Song up and exclaimed: "Old Master, what's wrong with you?"

It's not that Duanmu Tong is making a fuss, but that Duanmu Song has changed too much. In the blink of an eye, Duan Mu Song seems to have aged for decades, with pale and withered hair, cloudy and dull eyes, layer upon layer. The wrinkles on his face were filled with an aura of decay, like a candle in the wind. Anyone who saw it would think he was a dying person.

Duanmusong opened his eyes with difficulty and said: "I had a death battle with Ximen Ying before, which repeatedly stimulated my body's potential and consumed too much energy. Please don't make it public, so as not to disturb other people."

Duanmu Tong understands that now that the Duanmu family's big enemy has just left, it is a time when people are in panic. A slight change may cause an accident. If Ximen Ying and others find out about it, they may be killed. How can the Duanmu family resist at that time? ? Duanmu Tong looked around and saw that no one was paying attention, so he picked up Duanmu Tong and walked towards a nearby courtyard.

Qingyang returned to the courtyard where he lived and did not go out for a while. While practicing, he reviewed the Yuan Dan techniques he had learned before, and his life was quite fulfilling. Qingyang knew that Duanmu's family had a lot of things going on recently, and knew that the other party couldn't take care of him in a short time, but he never expected that this delay would last for nearly a month.

Qingyang couldn't sit still now. Did the Duanmu family forget about him? A monk's time is also very precious, and he cannot waste all his time on Wucheng Island.

Qingyang's cultivation relies more on pills, and the spiritual energy from the outside only plays a supporting role. Therefore, Qingyang has no special requirements for where to practice. It's just that the hundreds of Yuan-Yuan Pills he prepared before have been used up on the spirit ship. If If not for the fact that they had obtained some Yuan Yang Dan using Yuan Dan techniques from the Duanmu family treasury some time ago, Qingyang would have been out of elixirs for a long time.

A dozen Yuan Yang Pills cannot last for long, and there is no place to replenish them. Once the pills are used up, the cultivation will stagnate. Qingyang decided that if no one from the Duanmu family came after three days, he would leave directly and talk about the alchemy later.

Fortunately, the Duanmu family did not forget Qingyang. Two days later, Duanmu Tong came to Qingyang's residence, bowed respectfully to Qingyang, thanked him for his life-saving grace, and then said: "These There are too many things going on, and I have neglected fellow Taoist Qingyang. Now my old man, young master, and young lady are waiting in the main hall of Duanmu’s house, and I would like to ask fellow Taoist Qingyang to move forward.”

The Duanmu family was so respectful, which was a bit beyond Qingyang's expectations, but he didn't say much, but followed Duanmu Tong out of the courtyard, then walked through several corridors and alleys, and arrived at the center of the city lord's palace. A main hall.

Duanmu Song had already been waiting at the entrance of the main hall. Standing next to him were his sister and brother Duan Mufei. After not seeing each other for a month, Duan Mu Song's injury had improved a lot, but he was much older than before. how to say? Although Duanmusong was plagued by illness in the past, he seemed to still have some foundation. Now, although Duanmusong's illness is gone, his whole person seems to have been hollowed out.

In fact, when he left last time, Qingyang had already seen a clue, but he didn't deliberately point it out. At that time, he was obviously holding on to his breath. In fact, his vitality was seriously injured, and it was unclear whether he could recover. Now it seems that his judgment at that time was relatively accurate. Duanmu Song is now in this state. On the surface, he is still a foundation-building cultivator, but in fact, the whole person is useless, only an empty shell is left. He can only exert one or two percent of his full strength, and his life span is not much. If he suffers a little blow, he may die at any time.

Seeing Qingyang, Duanmu Song barely showed a smile on his face, and bowed his hands and said: "I have been waiting here for a long time. Fellow Daoist Qingyang, please follow me. Duanmu Tong, you just guard the door and don't allow anyone to approach the main hall. No matter what happens, we can't be disturbed?"

Duanmu Tong seemed to have known that the old man would make such an arrangement, so he nodded, and then stood sideways, blocking the door of the main hall.

Qingyang was a little surprised. What exactly did Duanmu Song want to do so seriously? Could it be that they had improper thoughts about him? It shouldn't be possible. Duanmu Song has been disabled. All the people in the Duanmu family are no match for him. If they attack him, they will only bring shame upon themselves. Then there is only one explanation for the other party to be so careful, that is, they have something confidential to say.

At this time, Duanmu Song had already led Duanmu Fei and his sister into the main hall. Qingyang had no worries in his heart, so he followed them into the main hall.
