Zhang Xiaowu squatted outside the cage of the hell realm and whispered to the people inside: "The Demon Lord of Huangquan and the Godless Demon Lord have fallen. "Elegant*Wen*Words*Emotion*First* Hair'"
It was so dark inside that Zhang Xiaowu couldn't see the specific situation clearly. The six underground palaces are connected to the six main peaks respectively. The hell path is under the Moon-covering Peak, which is quite far away from Yunqing's Wangyue Peak. The Eight Cold and Eight Hot Hells where Yun Qing is located are independent small worlds. Although they can maintain contact with the underground palace, they cannot influence each other. Zhang Xiaowu had asked Golden Dragon Girl to accompany and coerce several guard disciples in the Six Paths Palace in the past few days, and finally found a way to contact her.
"Why are you here?" Yun Qing's voice sounded calm, but it was much lower than usual. It must be that he has been tortured these past few days.
Zhang Xiaowu told her in detail: "My brother recently found a Taoist couple to practice double cultivation. His Taoist couple's brother's master is in charge of affairs in the hell realm, so I found him through this administrator..."
"Ahem..." Yun Qing suddenly coughed, she interrupted, "What are you doing here?"
Zhang Xiaowu thought to himself that he must be too verbose. How could Demon Lord Huang Quan have the heart to listen to his nonsense after being tortured in the Eight Cold and Eight Hot Hells for so many days. So he immediately said: "Everyone on Wangyue Peak is looking forward to your return, so the two aunts sent me over first to have a look..."
"Did you just say that Zong Wushen fell?" Yun Qing interrupted him again, his words a bit hurried, and it sounded like he was not breathing very smoothly.
Zhang Xiaowu was stunned: "Yes, the news just came."
Yun Qing in the Hell Realm was silent for a while, not knowing what he was thinking. When he spoke again, his voice was intermittent: "Then... ahem, I guess I will be able to come out of the Hell Realm soon."
Zhang Xiaowu was puzzled. Zong Wushen was thousands of miles away from Demon Lord Huangquan, and they had almost no contact with each other. How could Demon Lord Huangquan know that she would be fine once the other party died
"Demon Lord of the Underworld, I don't know how long... you're going to stay here. But if you're cold or hungry, tell me. I'll bring you something to eat. I've been cooking the fish soup for more than a day, so I can eat it today." Now." Zhang Xiaowu babbled to Yun Qing in the hell realm, "Moreover, the princess wants to raise fish, and Miss Hu wants to raise chickens, what do you think I should do...?"
"Who killed Zong Wushen?" Yun Qing was silent for a long time before speaking. She seemed to be trying her best to calm down her breathing.
Zhang Xiaowu was stunned again: "I don't know."
"Really..." Yun Qing seemed to be thinking about something again. It was so quiet that no sound could be heard. 『Elegant*Wen*Words*Emotion*First*Posted』
Zhang Xiaowu then told her how miserable Dragon Girl and Hu Hanmei had tortured him recently: "You don't know, Miss Hu is clamoring for chicken every day, and this Dragon Princess insists on going against her. I can only think about how to Make chicken-flavored fish and fish-flavoured chicken to fool both sides.”
"Oh, so what we ate today wasn't chicken?" A cold voice came from above his head.
Zhang Xiaowu replied smoothly: "Yes! Otherwise Princess Dragon will definitely drag me into the pool and drown me!"
"You think I'm easier to bully?"
Zhang Xiaowu sensed something was wrong. He raised his head tremblingly and saw that alluring face. He sat down on the ground and said, "Oh my god! Auntie, why are you here too! Aren't you afraid that the princess will knock down your house when you leave?" !”
"Humph, I'll let you go today." Hu Hanmei glanced at him sideways, and then said to Yun Qing, "Zong Wushen was killed by Jingli."
Yun Qing seemed to smile: "I know, thank you very much."
"He was shot down by the Lutian Holy Altar. It is said that thousands of sacrifices are controlling the holy altar, but who doesn't know that Jingli has always been on the holy altar." Hu Hanmei seemed a little disdainful when she heard her mention the name of the saint of humanity. There aren't many mood swings anymore. Maybe I got out of this karma, or maybe I buried it deeper.
"Now Jiu Ming City has returned to the hands of humanity after a long journey." Yun Qing sighed.
"What about returning to humanity? Jiu Ming was originally the ancient capital of Tianzhu, but the place of demons!" Hu Hanmei became furious when she mentioned this matter. Zhang Xiaowu, who was sitting at her feet, was so frightened by her that he ran away quickly.
There was always a sigh in Yun Qing's words, and she didn't know whether she was in pain or something else: "Shiwandashan has given up on Jiu Ming City, and also given up on you. The demon saint wants to use these chips in exchange for a little recovery. time."
"...What's wrong with the Saint?" Hu Hanmei is away from home all year round, but he is also extremely dependent on the Demonic Saint.
"I'm sick." Yun Qing said a few words and then paused for a moment. It seemed that the torture in hell was indeed unbearable. "She looks quite weak."
Hu Hanmei seemed to recall the appearance of the demon saint, her eyelashes cast a small shadow, and her expression showed a bit of melancholy: "She has always been like this, she... has lived too long."
"Isn't the saint immortal?" Zhang Xiaowu, who was waiting on the side, finally couldn't help but interject.
"Is there anything in the world that can last forever?" Yun Qing said with a rare hint of ridicule, "Even the world itself will one day perish."
Hu Hanmei felt quite complicated. She and Jingli were opposites, and she had nothing to worry about when the other party was ruthless. But the demon saint was her closest relative. How could she just laugh it off when he was abandoned like this
Yun Qing's trip to Shiwanda Mountain seems to have found out some things about the demon saint. She has lived for a hundred thousand years and has been sleeping in a demon burial place like Yaoque Tower. Whether it is her body or Everything the soul can bear is too heavy. So she needs some preparation time before the world is really in chaos.
Only when the saints start to become chaotic will this catastrophe begin.
In a sense, Shiwandashan's attack on Jiu Ming City was not an accident brought about by Yun Qing, but an necessity driven by time. The Saint of the Demonic Way is the most unworthy of all the Saints. A hundred years ago, the Saint Jingli appeared in the Human Realm, and Zihong, the Buddha and the Dao, also began to create his own Heart Sutra of Rebirth. Presumably, the Saint of the Buddha and the Way will also be born soon. At that time, the ghost saints were in a stable period, the immortal saints, and the demon saints were all in their prime, and were even on the rise, but she was the only one who was declining little by little.
She couldn't wait for the saints of humanity and Buddhism to fully grow up, nor could she wait for herself to completely fall under the immortals and demons. She had to strive for the best situation for the demons while she was still alive.
Hu Hanmei seemed to suddenly think of something: "Nine Lives City originally belonged to the Demon Dao, but now the Demon Dao Saint has given it to the Human Dao as a bargaining chip, so it is said that the Demon Dao is also making this idea this time...?"
"That's right." Yun Qing coughed a few times, and then continued, "When the Jiu Ming Rebellion began, the ownership of this city belonged to the Human Dao, and then it was transferred to the hands of the Demon Dao. The Saint of the Demon Dao will take you Send you to the battlefield, and then let you fall. In this way, the bargaining chip she paid was a city and a peak heavenly demon. Now the devil plans to repeat the same trick. Originally, this city has nothing to do with us, but as long as Zong Wushen takes the smallest step, If we get it at a price, then it will be our bargaining chip."
Hu Hanmei suddenly felt a sympathy for this demonic heir who had never met before: "So, in this way, the demonic saint has a city in his hands, and a demonic heir as a bargaining chip."
"Now he has given both of them to the human realm." Yun Qing chuckled, "If we don't capture Jiu Ming City first, is it possible that we have to exchange the Wuwu Demon Realm for the human realm?"
Hu Hanmei still didn't quite understand: "The demon saint has had time to breathe, but what has the demon saint changed?"
"He exchanged this city for you, and Zong Wushen for me." Yun Qing seemed to have been laughing, but his intermittent coughing covered his smile.
Hu Hanmei became more and more confused, and Zhang Xiaowu didn't understand it at all: "...?"
Yun Qing remembered that when she was sent to Jiu Ming City to assassinate Hu Hanmei, she had a detailed discussion with the Imperial Master before that. At that time, she had just killed Ling Feizi, and the national master reminded her to be prepared to be held accountable by the Tongtian Divine Vein. If I remember correctly, the Imperial Master made it clear at that time, "Sheng Tianxiang will not kill you, and he will probably cheat on you when the time comes."
This time it seems that the Demonic Saint is really cheating.
Judging from the few things Yun Qing knows, she now owes Hu Hanmei's life, Ling Feizi's life, and even Rong Daozi's matter. If the Demonic Saint wants to save her, he must save everyone. A period of cause and effect has come to an end.
The thing about Hu Hanmei is obvious. The demonic saint and the humanistic saint started planning about twelve years ago. He took Zheng Zhenzhen and Hu Hanmei from the humanistic saint, so he will find a way to return a similar child. Now it seems that this stone is Jiu Ming City, which was occupied by the devil for a short time. Jiu Ming City had nothing to do with the devil, but the saint of the devil took it down by force. Even if it was only occupied for a few days, it really had something to do with it. This piece was made out of nothing, and it was a bit of a lie.
The matter of Ling Feizi is more puzzling. One life is exchanged for another among the direct descendants. At first, Yun Qing thought that Qian Bian was the one who exchanged her life, but after thinking about it carefully, she felt something was wrong. If the demon saint gave up Qian Bian, then he should have been tricked into dying in the hands of the immortal. What would it be if he died in the hands of Yun Qing? Furthermore, Qian Bian disguised himself as Yi Du or the few words he said before his death meant something else. Yun Qing didn't understand what the meaning was for a while, but he thought it was not a simple exchange of lives.
Later, when he returned to the sect, Demon Lord Qianyuan didn't seem to know that Qian Bian was disguised as Demon Lord Yidu to find Yun Qing, and Yun Qing didn't mention it again. When she was dragged into the hell realm to be tortured, it was basically confirmed that Qian Bian was not the one used to replace her. The reason why she was able to return to the sect so calmly was because she thought that the Demon Saint had already taken care of the rest of the matter, whether it was Qian Bian or Ling Feizi, there was basically nothing to worry about.
However, Demon Lord Qianyuan's attitude is unclear. No matter how you look at it, he doesn't seem to be angry with the demon saint.
Now that Zong Wushen died, Yun Qing began to speculate again whether the demonic saint used him to exchange his life from the immortal. So as soon as she confirmed the authenticity of the news, she immediately asked Zhang Xiaowu who Zong Wushen was killed for. If he was killed by someone from the immortal way, then this guess would be quite accurate.
Unexpectedly, Hu Hanmei said with certainty that Zong Wushen was killed by a saint of humanity. Saints will not take action against beings below saints, but there are still some exceptions. Yun Qing remembered that Su Yaobai once told him that if Ling Feizi was really killed by her, she would be brought into the Heavenly Divine Vein and "killed by the Saint himself." In other words, in the process of paying life for life, a saint can take action against beings below the saint.
If the person who killed Zong Wushen was an immortal saint, there would be nothing to say, but now it was a human saint who killed him... Yun Qing carefully recalled her subtle feelings about getting along with the human saint, and she couldn't help but have an absurd thought. guess.
Could this saint of humanity be a person with divine veins in the sky
