No wonder he was able to return to his soul when he was in the eighteenth level of hell. Those tortured souls were extremely respectful to him. So that was not the reason!
Are those souls affected by the power of Soul Transferring and Returning to the Heart? Therefore, when Mu Yu obtains Soul Transferring and Returning to the Heart, the Soul Transferring and Returning to the Heart, tortured in the eighteenth level of hell, is equivalent to treating Mu Yu as his master.
But Mu Yu asked, "Why is the soul of the old city lord in my place?"
"When he was in Dongsha City, he just saved Dong He Jinglong. He knew that I wanted to use that kind of power to save He Jinglong, but if He Jinglong's soul entered Lutuo, it would be gone. He couldn't be resurrected by me, so he felt compassion and used his soul to return to his heart to save He Jinglong and those three people."
Tan Qingquan explained simply.
Mu Yu didn't expect that Tan Qingquan would be the first person to stand up when he was in Dongsha City. That meant that when he was in Dongsha City, Tan Qingquan's ability was completely unknown. There is a chance to save Dongxuanzhengtang's family and He Jinglong.
But Tan Qingquan didn't do anything!
Mu Yu suddenly felt very unhappy. He thought about how he had massacred so many people in Dongsha City and caused so much massacre. Tan Qingquan could have stopped all of this, but Tan Qingquan chose to stand aside and watch.
But immediately, Muyu's heart returned to calm, and he did not continue to think about that problem, because he did not think there was anything wrong in massacring those people.
"I want to ask him why he didn't help the people in Dongsha City?" Tan Qingquan said.
Mu Yu responded calmly: "He doesn't want to know what happened in the past. He just wants to know how to repair his father's soul now."
Tan Qingquan looked a little surprised: "I don't want to know why he didn't do anything?"
Mu Yu said calmly: "So what if he knows? What should happen has already happened. He can't change what has happened. He doesn't want to ask me why I didn't do anything in the first place."
Maybe Tan Qingquan could stop all that and avoid a killing. But just like what Mu Yu told his grandfather Mu Tianhe in Qingshui City:
He doesn't like to use "maybe" to replace many things. There is no possibility in life.
Instead of worrying about questioning people in the past, it is better to look at the present and see if Mu Yu has a wrong attitude towards life, so he can forgive Mu Tianhe for his mistakes.
Tan Qingquan nodded thoughtfully: "No wonder I asked Dead Wood Evergreen to change his temper. He has been wondering whether Dead Wood Evergreen has accepted a kind of apprentice that would make him willing to protect me with his life. Now he doesn't care. Is it obvious that it’s red?”
When many people learned the truth, they would inevitably ask angrily why Tan Qingquan had the ability to prevent the destruction of Dongsha City but did not do anything, but Mu Yu did not, he was very calm. Since there is no regret pill in the world, Mu Yu likes to look forward to everything.
Although Mu Yu did not ask deeply, Tan Qingquan explained: "He is an immortal person. Although his life is not as long as my master, it is not short. Over the past thousands of years, he has seen countless life and death. He doesn't care about the life and death of cultivators. He doesn't deny my master, and he doesn't have such a great mind, so no matter whether it's He Jinglong, Xuan Zhengtang's family, or the destruction of Dongsha City, He didn’t want to interfere with anything.”
Zhuge Xiaosheng and Gu Jiangyou were both moved, and they looked at Tan Qingquan in deep awe. But this is a senior who has truly lived for thousands of years. Life naturally has the most say.
"Then I don't want to fight against the Red Realm?" Tianran said from the side. Tianran is still a kind girl, and killing something like this is not difficult for her to accept.
Tan Qingquan looked at Tianran and said with a smile: "Am I Jian Yingchenfeng's daughter?"
"No." Tian Ran didn't avoid anything.
"Sure enough, he is very similar to my father."
Tan Qingquan nodded thoughtfully, and then said: "Life is not for those who choke. Only with death can there be new life. When he was young, he also wanted to save those people, but later he gradually discovered that many times he There is nothing we can do to save them, our life span is longer than theirs, and we want to watch them die in the end, how do we feel?"
Everyone was silent. No one had lived as long as Tan Qingquan, so they couldn't understand that state of mind.
"They cannot prevent the destruction of life. The world of cultivation has its own rules for development. They, immortal people, do not want to interfere. When someone tries to break the rules of the world of cultivation, they only need to move. So will he resist in the red world? Yes, but he didn't want to interfere with the choices made by the cultivators in Dongsha City. Whether they killed people or surrendered, it was the cultivators' own decision. He had seen too much about life and death, and the death of a few people would not cause any fluctuations for him. Whether He Jinglong or Xuan Zhengtang is a family member, life is very important to him."
Tan Qingquan looked at He Jinglong. He Jinglong lowered his head in embarrassment, his face a little red, but he didn't dare to complain.
Mu Yu said coldly: "To him, the lives of the old city lord and Xunzhengtang's family are more valuable than everyone in the entire Dongsha City."
He Jinglong looked at Mu Yu gratefully. In his eyes, Mu Yu was indeed a different person.
"Like Jian Yingchenfeng, I value love and righteousness. Even if Jian Yingchenfeng lives longer than all of them, he will not be tired of life and will save those who are worthy of saving, so he He is a great person, and he is not." Tan Qingquan said calmly, and did not feel there was anything inappropriate in saying those things.
After a long while, Tan Qingquan said again: "Did he decide to help me to save the souls of Donghe Jinglong and Xuan Zhengtang for the sake of Jian Yingchenfeng and Dead Mu Changqing? Regardless of whether Jian Yingchenfeng or not He admires both of them very much."
Deadwood Evergreen and Tan Qingquan are not from the same generation, but there are still some intersections between them. Old-timers like Tan Qingquan can admire the ability of dead trees to stay green.
"Is there any way I can save his father?"
Mu Yu looked at Tan Qingquan. He didn't want to ask about Dongsha City, but wanted to know how to save Kumu's father, because Ruming's soul transfer had already lost its legs, and Tan Qingquan was one of the nine immortals. , mysterious, maybe there is cocoa that can revive dead trees.
Tan Qingquan did not answer Mu Yu directly, but walked to a stone indifferently, waved his sleeves, and walked east, looking around the already dilapidated valley, which was originally a place where dead trees and evergreens lived in seclusion.
He said with emotion: "So many years have passed in such a flash, I didn't expect that I have grown to that point. When he first saw me, I was just a young man in the Golden Core stage who was lively and ignorant of the world."
Mu Yu frowned: "Have I seen him before?"
Tan Qingquan laughed: "Don't I recognize him? The first time they met was in the valley where the dead trees were evergreen. At that time, the place was gloomy and filled with poisonous fog. They had worked together to destroy the dead trees. Evergreen’s mirror image array, isn’t it?”
"I-"
Suddenly a light flashed through Mu Yu's mind, and he looked at Tan Qingquan in disbelief: "Am I Lao Tan?"
Xiaoshuai also exclaimed: "No wonder he thinks my guy is so familiar. It turns out that I am not the person who was hiding in the cave back then!"
When Mu Yu entered the Dead Wood Valley for the first time, he was walking in the mist and met a down-and-out middle-aged man who claimed to be looking for Dead Wood Evergreen but was trapped in the mirror formation for a long time. At that time, Mu Yu used his keen observation skills to He discovered the flaw in the mirror formation and told Lao Tan how to get out. Then he also wanted to leave the valley, but was thrown into the depths of the valley by a dead tree. In the end, he saw the returning soul for the first time.
How could he have imagined that at that time, Lao Tan, whose cultivation was at the Nascent Soul stage, would turn out to be the Master Ni Lei whom Mu Yu had been looking for for so many years!
"Old Tan, Tan Qingquan, Ni Lei, both of them actually reject me?"
At that time, Lao Tan's cultivation level displayed in front of Mu Yu was very low. Mu Yu never expected that Lao Tan would be Ni Lei Zhenren! Thinking about it now, I am afraid that Master Ni Lei is just helping Mu Yu stay green, and just playing with Mu Yu.
Tan Qingquan smiled: "Back then, Dead Tree Evergreen took away the soul from the ghost gate and returned to the heart. He was seriously injured and could no longer suppress the soul to return to the heart, so I asked him to help. At that time, I happened to Breaking into the valley, he had nothing to do at the time and wanted to see how effective the formation created by Dead Wood Evergreen was, so he disguised himself. Unexpectedly, I really had two things and actually robbed Dead Wood. Changqing. I thought it was right. He was observing me and agreeing with me the whole time. When I melted into the Sky Demon Tree, he guessed my identity, or he told Dead Tree Changqing where I was going. "
Mu Yu was a little stunned. Mu Yu didn't know about those things, let alone that he had met Master Ni Lei when he was in the golden elixir stage!
"What is my real name?"
Mu Yu was not in the mood to reminisce with the wrong party. He had seen the Soul Transferring Returning Heart that he had been looking for, so he had seen it. He had never thought that Ni Lei Zhenren, who he had been looking for, had also seen it. It was like a joke, which made him a little bit confused. Annoyed.
But if he thinks back to Yidong's massacre of Dongsha City, he should have thought of that a long time ago. The first time Mu Yu met Tan Qingquan, he felt very familiar, not only because Tan Qingquan was the first to stand up to support him, but also because some of Tan Qingquan's words and deeds seemed to have been seen before, and he was criticized at that time. Affected by the power of killing, he only wanted to avenge the old city lord and Xunzhengtang's family. In addition, Tan Qingquan and the down-and-out man in the valley were completely different, so Mu Yu did not doubt Tan Qingquan's identity.
Tan Qingquan said slowly: "Ni Lei is his Taoist name, and Tan Qingquan is his real name. Of course, if you like, you can also call him Lao Tan."
Mu Yu snorted noncommittally. When he was in the valley before, he didn't know Tan Qingquan's identity, so he habitually called him "Lao Tan", but now calling him "Lao Tan" is a bit weird. .
Mu Yu's principle of life is very simple. No matter how good Bu Xinfang's cultivation is, people should respect him one foot, and he will respect others one foot. If people want to harm him, he will kill them. Tan Qingquan had not helped him after all, so he habitually lowered his stance and said: "Senior Ni Lei, am I sure I can save his father?"
