Mu Xi suddenly became alert and was about to force the thing out, but the ring in her hand suddenly became hot and swallowed the thing in an instant!
It was the ring given by Lou Jingxiao before.
Mu Xi secretly checked to see if there was any abnormality in her body and found that the thing was missing.
She acted as if she didn't notice anything and poured a cup of tea for the great elder.
"Master, please have some tea."
Although she called him master, Mu Xi didn't have the slightest respect in her heart.
She only recognized two masters, one was Nalan Hai and the other was Mr. Wen.
When the thing shot by the great elder was swallowed up by the ring left by Lou Jingxiao, the great elder's eyes suddenly darkened, and he stared at Mu Xi with a bit of murderous intent in his eyes.
Just when he was about to take action directly, he found that Mu Xi seemed to have noticed nothing and had no idea what had just happened. He hesitated again.
"Master?" Seeing that he was not answering, Mu Xi called out pretending to be confused.
Seeing that she didn't know anything, the great elder put down his murderous intention, took the tea with a smile, and took a quick sip.
"Okay, from today on you are my disciple."
Mu Xi also said cooperatively: "Thank you, Master."
The great elder's eyes fell on the ring in her hand.
He had just observed everything on her body, and only the ring in her hand gave him an unfathomable feeling.
The great elder had a premonition that the puppet insect he had just tried to use to control her died under that ring.
What could that be
She didn't seem to know that the ring had such a function.
The great elder's mind was spinning a thousand times, and when Mu Xi wasn't paying attention, he shot out several puppet worms, all of which were swallowed up by the ring.
The elder who originally wanted to use the puppet insect to control Ye Muxi felt more and more that the ring must be a good thing.
He picked up the weird bell that was constantly vibrating, looked at her with a smile, and said, "Mu Xi, do you think the sound of this bell sounds nice?"
Mu Xi's mind suddenly moved, is this the beginning of testing
She said calmly: "Master, this bell is probably broken. I didn't hear any sound."
The great elder felt that a mysterious power was emanating from her ring, isolating her.
It seems to be because of the ring again.
"I'm afraid it's really broken." He put the bell back on the ground as if he didn't care, and said slowly: "I heard that your mother's mother-in-law is from the Song family of Fuxi Kingdom?"
Mu Xi knew very well that if she was selected to come to the main pavilion, her identity and background would be clearly investigated by the Shenhun Pavilion, so she did not hide it much.
"Yes, my mother is Miss Song."
Hearing what Mu Xi said, the elder couldn't help but think of the tragedy of the Song family being wiped out by a mysterious man.
It is said that the reason why those mysterious people came to the Song family was to find a very precious treasure.
Could it be...
His eyes fell on the ring in Mu Xi's hand again.
Is this the ring
The Great Elder smiled gently and said: "I just want to see you today. You have worked hard along the way. I have asked someone to arrange a place for you. You can have a good rest today, and don't forget to pray tomorrow."
Mu Xi straightened up: "Yes, that disciple will leave first."
The Great Elder watched Ye Muxi leave with a smile. It was not until she left that he stood up and went to the top of the tower.
"Soul Lord."
A pair of strange eyes opened in the darkness: "How?"
The Great Elder said: "The cauldron is protected by a mysterious treasure and cannot be controlled for the time being."
He is a very cautious person.
When he still doesn't know what the ring is, the great elder will not do it easily.
The fear is that the mysterious treasure has a powerful protective function. Not only will it not be able to catch Ye Muxi, it may also scare the snake and give Ye Muxi a chance to escape.
"Mysterious treasure..." Those strange eyes were silent for a moment, and said sinisterly: "But the treasure those people are looking for in the Song family?"
"I don't know, but it's very possible."
"Find a way to take it." Only by taking away that treasure can we better control the cauldron.
"Yes, I already have a candidate in my mind." A cold light flashed in the Great Elder's eyes. He wanted to attract Ye Muxi's attention without alerting the snake, successfully grab the treasure, and control her. He already had a pretty good candidate in his mind.
"Go." The eyes closed, and the voice gradually became heavy and distant: "Two cauldrons are still not enough, let's train a few more cauldrons."
The Great Elder's eyes flickered: "Don't worry, Soul Master, I'm already working hard to prepare personnel."
It's just that the cauldron is too difficult to succeed.
They have experimented with more than a hundred people, but none of them have succeeded.
In the end, the cauldron itself appeared.
It seems that we need to capture the female cauldron as soon as possible.
…
Got off the tower.
Mu Xi was taken to the room arranged by the great elder.
She closed the door and waited for a while. There was a slight fluctuation in the air, and then a deep and pleasant voice sounded:
"Xiao Xi'er is waiting for me?"
As soon as Lou Jingxiao appeared, he hugged everyone in his arms.
Recently, he has become more and more comfortable with this act of being able to hold a beautiful woman in his arms at any time.
Mu Xi put a finger on his chest and pushed him out expressionlessly.
"Stand still." She said with a straight face, shaking the ring on her hand: "What is this?"
Lou Jingxiao chuckled lightly and took off the ring from her hand. When the simple ring reached Lou Jingxiao's hand, it immediately emitted a dark light and spat out several black, rapidly squirming insects.
Mu Xi frowned. Is this the bug that the Great Elder used to attack her
Lou Jingxiao said: "Puppet worms eat human brains and can parasitize in human bodies."
"He wants to control me?" Why does the Great Elder want to control her
Lou Jingxiao nodded thoughtfully: "It seems that is indeed the case."
"What will happen if it is parasitized by a puppet insect?"
Lou Jingxiao shrugged: "It's hard to say."
There are too many people who surrender to him, and he never bothers to use these things to control people.
"But it is certain that she will be controlled by the other party." Lou Jingxiao rubbed her head: "But Xiao Xi'er, don't worry, this ring has my magic... mana, you don't need to be afraid of these puppet insects with it."
I almost let it slip.
Lou Jingxiao suddenly felt a little worried. If Xiao Xier knew his true identity, would she still get close to him
Humans seem to hate them very much, right
Mu Xi took the ring back to her hand. Lou Jingxiao had taken advantage of her so much, so she had to take advantage and come back. She secretly decided not to return the ring to him.
But why does the Great Elder want to control her
What's the purpose
Mu Xi frowned and thought deeply. It seemed that he was more careful here than in Nanyan Kyoto.
The next day, Mu Xi followed everyone and prayed absentmindedly before leaving the Shenhun Pavilion.
Because most of the people selected from other places have not arrived yet, she is still free these days and can come and go at any time.
Back at the Song family, Song Qinglan was playing chess with Mr. Song. In front of them stood a tall man in black clothing.
Mu Xi stared at the tall figure, and a look of surprise suddenly flashed across her beautiful eyes.
"father?"
This person is Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen, who heard Mu Xi's voice, turned around and locked eyes with Mu Xi, his eyes silent and dark.
