"And yet this continues to this day..."
Luo Wusheng narrowed his eyes slightly.
Miss Qilin on the opposite side seemed unaware of this information and looked at Su Susu on the side.
The eldest daughter of the Su family nodded with a grim expression.
This is also the reason why she was so upset in the past two months that she even went to the fireworks.
Although she had no interest in inheriting the family business and was happy to be a secret agent of the Six Gates, she was extremely anxious as a child because her family members were always sighing and unable to eat.
"Is there a connection between the elixir and the demon race's ability to hide in the royal city? Can the demon race use the elixir to cover up its aura?"
Miss Qilin quickly sorted out the context, made a guess, and looked at Luo Wusheng.
Luo Wusheng shook his head.
"The aura has been covered up long ago. Almost every day, there are demons that look like ordinary people entering the north of the royal city. It's just that without external forces, no one can see it."
Hearing these words, Miss Qilin showed confusion under her mask.
Knowing that Jin Zhang, who had not read the original story, would definitely not understand the ins and outs of it, Luo Wusheng continued:
"The demon tribe has been preparing for three years. Naturally, they can't just hide their aura every day. Given their numbers, that approach is not safe."
"So, under the magical power of the new leader of the demon race, the demonic power in their bodies was completely eliminated and turned into a drop of sealed demon blood. Their strength was only at the foundation building stage at most, and their appearance was completely transformed into human form. Unless a cultivator who has also reached the state of transformation of the gods carefully investigates, it is difficult to detect any clues."
"As for those elixirs... the others are just a cover. What they value is a low-level elixir called the Blood Burning Pill."
"The Blood Burning Pill is originally a life-threatening pill for low-level cultivators to overdraw their potential, but the demon race does not care about the side effects with their physique. Instead, after taking more than ten pills, they can use it to ignite the sealed demon blood in their bodies and restore their cultivation and magical powers."
"When the Immortal Kingdom faces external enemies sent by the demons in the future, these demons hidden in the core of the Immortal Kingdom will be able to use it to reappear their demonic power, create chaos from within, and disintegrate the defenses of the royal city."
The words fell.
The hall was silent.
Chapter 89 Yes, she told me everything.
absurd.
This was the first thought that came to the minds of the women present.
Even Miss Sword Immortal, who had been trying to empty her mind and maintain an elegant smile just following Luo Wusheng's instructions, could no longer hold back.
The words spoken by the Holy Son of the Demon Sect are not something that can just go in one ear and out the other.
Miss Qilin's breathing became disordered for a moment.
She did guess that the Demon Sect Saint in front of her might know a lot of information that she didn't know, and could help her avoid many detours during the investigation.
But I never thought that the other party would just throw out the answer.
And the answer is really too surprising.
If everything is as Luo Wusheng said, then the demon soldiers of the demon clan have already been stockpiled in the royal city, and the guards of the royal city know nothing about it.
This means that once the unrest begins, the Immortal Kingdom will definitely be caught off guard and fall into a passive position.
Miss Qilin fell into deep thought.
"That's indeed possible... If you hadn't mentioned it now, the fact that the three families in the north of the city bought a large number of pills would have been overshadowed by other events..."
Even the Six Gates, which were specifically responsible for detecting anomalies, failed to notice the strangeness of the incident, let alone those immortal gods who were busy with their work and were often not in the city
This directly allowed the demon tribe, which might have been exposed due to purchasing a large number of elixirs, to enter the safe zone again.
But then I heard the sound of a wooden chair being moved.
Su Susu, the eldest daughter of the Su family who was pulled by Luo Wusheng to attend the meeting, looked unhappy and stood up from her chair.
"Two months... The Blood Burning Pill can only be stored for less than six months at most. It has been more than three months since those three companies started buying up the pills. If this is really a conspiracy by the demon clan... That means there are only two months left at most?"
She finally recalled the knowledge about the Blood Burning Pill just now. After figuring out the connection, she couldn't suppress the panic growing in her heart and lost her composure for a moment.
"Perhaps."
Luo Wusheng smiled indifferently.
That's enough of that.
He actually didn't know much about this matter.
After all, in the original plot, Miss Sword Fairy only played the role of an introductory part in this incident. After the traces of the demon clan were discovered and Miss Sword Fairy herself attracted the attention of the empress, the real protagonist was basically not involved in this matter.
Even the information Luo Wusheng just mentioned was mostly from the original work, when Xiao Yuli was having an affair with a certain empress in the future. The empress recalled that it was because of this incident that she became interested in the other party, so she mentioned the details so that Luo Wusheng, who now only had a small amount of memory of the original work, could know it.
"…How do you know so much?"
After a brief silence, Miss Qilin looked at Luo Wusheng with a serious look in her eyes.
She found that she could no longer see through this Holy Son of Demon.
Previously, she had some interest in the young man in front of her.
At first, I just felt that the other party's behavior was unpredictable. He was obviously the son of the Demon Sect, but he had to run a Magic Weapon Pavilion that was almost completely hopeless.
And after witnessing him refine that terrifyingly powerful mid-grade magic weapon and shattering the calamity cloud with one blow, she began to have some thoughts of recruiting this number one prodigy of the Demon Sect, who was completely inconsistent with the rumors. She valued him even more and thought she could forge a good relationship with him.
So much so that when the Demonic Weapon Pavilion later changed its offensive and became the number one weapon refining pavilion in the royal city, she was surprised to find that she was not at all surprised.
But now—
Miss Qilin felt that she had underestimated the Holy Son of the Demon Sect.
The demon clan’s plot... even the plot that the new demon clan leader personally covered up with his great magical powers...
Normally, should this be exposed so easily
The hidden secret that only a spirit-transforming cultivator could see through had already basically reduced the possibility of the other party being exposed to the lowest level.
However, the young man in front of him continued to tell the story. He directly announced the arrangements made by the demon clan in the royal city, and also explained nonchalantly how such arrangements were achieved.
How is this done
However, after hearing the question, Luo Wusheng did not answer immediately. Instead, he made a gesture, causing Miss Qilin's gaze to fall on Lu Yuli beside him.
The real protagonist felt his face going numb at this moment.
God knows how much effort she put in to keep an elegant smile on her face amidst so many shocking news.
Several times she wanted to ignore that annoying guy Luo Wusheng.
But she still endured it.
(Just think of it as a return gift for his unconscious help in reshaping the swordsman's heart...)
The little girl was thinking, but found herself inexplicably the focus of everyone's attention, and subconsciously looked at the saint of a certain demon sect who pushed her out.
Luo Wusheng just smiled gently.
"I forgot to introduce you to Master Qilin just now... This is Miss Lu Yuli, a disciple of the Sword Pavilion. She is here to represent the Sword Pavilion to participate in the Human Immortal Ranking Competition in one month."
Lu Yuli, who was being introduced, had a confused look on her face.
Why are you introducing her all of a sudden? Does she have anything to do with today's conversation
She thought so in her heart, but she was already a little numb. She subconsciously showed an elegant and calm smile to the people around her and nodded slightly.
Miss Qilin had no idea what Luo Wusheng was up to. After nodding and greeting Miss Jianxian, her doubts grew even more.
What she thought in her mind was basically the same as Lu Yuli's, but she had an additional question.
How could this little girl, who was only at the late stage of foundation building, keep smiling from beginning to end? How could she remain calm in the face of so many shocking news
Could it be that...
"To be honest, what I just said is all the information that Miss Lu got during her investigation. However, she is not in a position to speak, so I will do it for her."
After Luo Wusheng finished speaking, the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
Wonderful, how wonderful.
Although he had slightly stolen some of the limelight from the real protagonist and probably accelerated the progress of many events, he did not really want to steal the show from the protagonist. After all, the other party still had to rely on this incident to attract the attention of the one in the imperial palace and take over the harem.
If such an important plot was snatched away by me, God knows what changes would happen to the world line.
Lu Yuli, who was smiling and nodding at the side, was stunned.
She finally remembered where the familiar feeling she felt tonight came from.
Isn't this the same way I looked before when I was in Jiange, smiling and fooling my master and the leaders of various peaks
No, she doesn't want to take the blame for Luo Wusheng anymore!
At this moment, she forgot all about elegance, composure, smile and nodding.
"I'm not, I didn't!"
The little girl spoke up immediately, and took the lead in nipping things in the bud before things developed in the direction she had guessed.
Feeling Miss Qilin's gaze turning back to him, Luo Wusheng's face froze slightly.
Looking at Xiao Yuli again, he felt a little disappointed in her.
(Ms. Sword Fairy! I gave you a chance but you didn’t use it!)
Chapter 90 I Want to Give You a Chance
Luo Wusheng fell into deep thought.
Seeing that the little girl who had been very cooperative just now suddenly reacted so strongly, he always felt that something was wrong.
If you think about it carefully, it is already very strange that this young lady of swordsmanship appears here at this time.
It is obvious from the messages received in the past few days that the girl has not shown any signs of illness in the past few days. In this case, it is impossible for her to successfully conquer her icy beauty master.
A long section of the plot about Jiange in the original work has disappeared out of thin air.
Even Luo Wusheng couldn't figure out what his master's current situation was.
(If the original plot is followed, Xiao Yuli should have helped her master to resolve the knot in her heart. After her master started to break through the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, she felt relieved to come to the royal city to prepare for the Human Immortal Ranking...)
But what about the protagonist's master now? Is she preparing for a breakthrough like in the original novel? How is her relationship with her apprentice progressing
Well... now that this matter is over, let's ask this little girl about it.
But the problem at hand is that the real protagonist is going to cut her own plot again.
Although what he gave was indeed a little abrupt and sudden, if the girl didn't accept it... Luo Wusheng couldn't imagine how much this world line would change.
Thinking of this, he secretly winked at Lu Yuli.
He wanted to transmit sound, but after all, with his Nascent Soul in the air, transmitting sound at this time would be like trying to cover one's ears and steal a bell.
Unfortunately, Miss Sword Fairy didn't seem to understand the meaning of his eyes at all, and instead shrank back a little.
"Ahem, she is a little shy, otherwise she wouldn't let me talk about this... I hope Master Qilin doesn't mind."
After trying in vain, Luo Wusheng gritted his teeth and patched up his words, ignoring the embarrassed and annoyed look in the little girl's eyes after hearing the first half of his sentence.
He wanted to say a few more words to strengthen the credibility of his words and prevent Xiao Yuli from continuing to speak and wasting his efforts.
But Miss Qilin on the opposite side slowly stood up at this moment.
"I see."
There was a hint of understanding in her eyes beneath the mask.
It is obvious that the Holy Son of the Demon Sect does not want to reveal the true source of his information, and does not even want to have too much to do with this matter.
Miss Qilin recalled the few words the other party said when they first met... There is no doubt that at that time, the young man had already mastered information that she could not imagine.
If the evil spirit had not taken the initiative to provoke, I'm afraid the Holy Son of the Demon Sect would never have planned to reveal this information to the Six Gates so quickly.
The evil demon probably never imagined that he came here to attract attention to the main force, but ended up not only losing himself, but also letting the Demon Saint expose the demon clan's plan.
I don’t know if it will die with its eyes open.
Thinking of this, she looked at the girl from Jiange again.
