"Xiaoyao City is colluding with the Dragon Clan?" Gu Fuyou frowned, "What... Qilin marrow... me?"

These words were simply too confusing. She understood each word, but when they were put together, she couldn't understand them. "When did Xiaoyao City collude with the Dragon Clan? This is a fabricated thing. What about dividing the world equally? Uncle Lu, you know Xiaoyao City."

Lu Yandong shook his head: "I know, but you are confused."

Gu Fuyou's mouth sank, and she looked blankly. At first, she thought she had misunderstood, and thought that Lu Yandong's offering her up meant the pact between her and Zhong Michu, but after thinking about it, it didn't make sense. Not many people should know that Zhong Michu is a dragon, and Zhong Michu grew up in Jingdu Mountain, and his connection with the dragon clan is just that bloodline. Lu Yandong must have misunderstood something.

He mentioned the Qilin marrow for no reason before, and what he meant was that she was the Qilin marrow. Xiaoyao City was using her to make a deal with the Dragon Clan.

That seems to be what he meant.

However, Gu Fuyou was even more stunned. This was simply a huge joke. It was like a piece of stubborn stone that had been lying around for more than 20 years. Everyone who saw it would say it was just a broken stone. Suddenly one day someone came up to it, held it up and said, "Look, this is a priceless treasure." Could anything be more ridiculous than this

But even if Gu Fuyou found it hard to accept, she couldn't help but think deeply. Her mind raced, and suddenly she remembered all those details that she had never paid attention to in the past, as if she had grasped a thread and connected all the scattered things into one. She couldn't believe it, but the more she thought about it, the more she confirmed that she was Qilin marrow.

Gu Fuyou's face was stiff: "I... am Qilin marrow?"

Lu Yandong looked at her in silence, which was considered as tacit agreement. Gu Fuyou stumbled back two steps, barely stood firm, then reached into his pocket, pulled out Ah Fu's forelimb, pressed on its paw pad, pushed the claw out, scratched it with his thumb, and a drop of bright red blood appeared when he squeezed his fingers.

The blood looked like red agate beads, and there was nothing unusual about it. Gu Fuyou took out the sword embryo from the storage bag again. Lu Yandong's men immediately became alert, as if they would rush forward and subdue Gu Fuyou if he made another move. Lu Yandong raised his hand, signaling them not to act rashly.

Gu Fuyou glanced around, smeared the blood on his fingers on the sword embryo, and injected spiritual power into it. The spiritual light on the sword embryo suddenly increased.

Gu Fuyou's face froze. It turned out that it was not an illusion. She had used this sword twice, and it had emitted unusual spiritual light. Once in the ice cave of Xianluo, she thought it was because Zhong Michu had lost all his spiritual power to her; once in the cave, she couldn't figure out the reason, and because of Amon's death, she was depressed and didn't dare to think too much about what happened there.

No matter how overestimating she was, she would never have thought that she had the marrow of a unicorn. This was too absurd.

Gu Fuyou really laughed out loud because of this.

God, you have been very kind to me.

After solving this puzzle, all other things were explained. Gu Fuyou seemed to be talking to herself. She said, "That's why the Zuo family has been obsessed with Zuo Tianyi's death. The marriage proposal and the siege were all pretexts. They want me?"

Gu Fuyou felt like he was thrown into an abyss. It was pitch black all around him, and his whole body was in a state of weightlessness. "They wanted to capture me, so they attacked Xuanmiao Gate and Xiaoyao City, and even lied that Xiaoyao City was colluding with the Dragon Clan to get you to stand on their side... No, that's not right..."

Gu Fuyou's eyes were red as he stared at Lu Yandong closely. "They want to unify Nanzhou and also want the Qilin marrow. They acted openly and later just said that they did it for the sake of the human race and to prevent the Qilin marrow from falling into the hands of the dragon race. Not only will you not condemn them, but you will help them pass the knife!"

Lu Yandong put his hands behind his back, looked directly into Gu Fuyou's eyes, and said in a deep voice: "You are right! In order to prevent the Qilin marrow from falling into the hands of the dragon clan, we will even unite with the Xu Ling Sect. This is no longer a matter of one city or one sect, but a matter of the whole world. We naturally cannot gamble with the prosperity of the entire human race! Since Gu Wanpeng wants to betray the human race, it is no wonder that Sanzhou betrayed him!"

Gu Fuyou shouted, "My father didn't! Xiaoyao City didn't collude with the Dragon Clan. This is just a lie made up by the Xu Ling Sect in order to attack Xiaoyao City. Uncle Lu, you have known my father for so many years, don't you know him? He has always been straightforward and aboveboard! My father didn't even know that I was the Qilin Marrow, and I didn't know either. If we knew, I would be using this thing to deal with the Zuo family in Xiaoyao City right now..."

A voice suddenly rang out from behind the stone screen: "You can make excuses however you want."

Gu Fuyou suddenly turned his head and saw Zuo Yuezhi leading a group of people out. When Lu Yandong saw him, he snorted coldly, turned his eyes away with a sullen face, and seemed to be very reluctant to see him. A middle-aged man in a blue gown walked towards Lu Yandong. When he passed by Gu Fuyou, Dong Li and Liu Guizhen cautiously protected Gu Fuyou and stepped back.

The middle-aged man glanced at Gu Fuyou and went straight up the stairs. Lu Yandong bowed to him and called, "Elder."

Gu Fuyou then realized that this person was an elder of the Biluo Sect. Xuling Sect and Biluo Sect had already had contact, and they had arrived in Gucheng before them. I'm afraid that Lu Yandong's previous hospitality was for these people.

Gu Fuyou now knew what the Xu Ling Sect wanted, and she felt more confident. She looked at Zuo Yuezhi coldly and said, "If you want to accuse someone, you can always find a pretext."

Zuo Yuezhi smiled and said, "Whether it is a false charge or not, you guys in Xiaoyao City know it in your heart. Without collusion with the dragon clan, how could there be a beast tide on Jiansu Peak? Everyone knows that only the dragon clan can cause a beast tide! If it weren't for an arrow from the sky, how could you juniors escape from the hands of a cultivator in the Cave Void Stage? Someone is protecting you in secret! I heard from fellow Taoists in the Biluo Sect that a general from the East China Sea Dragon Clan recently entered Dongzhou. Why did the Dragon Clan, which never leaves the four seas all year round, come here at this critical juncture, and why is he a general from the clan? Of course, it's to see you, the Qilin Marrow!"

As he spoke, Zuo Yuezhi took out an arrow. The tip of the arrow was a golden dragon tooth, which shone with a strange luster in the sun. Zuo Yuezhi said meaningfully, "This is the arrow shot from Jiansu Peak. It has a golden dragon tooth on it, a rare treasure from the dragon clan, which is not something that ordinary people can get."

What this means is that the person who shot the arrow and secretly assisted them was either a member of the Dragon Clan or someone related to the Dragon Clan.

Lu Yandong and the elders of the Biluo Sect were not surprised, and they had obviously seen this arrow before. If the Xuling Sect had not produced enough evidence to prove that Xiaoyao City was colluding with the Dragon Clan, Lu Yandong would not have been so sure about this.

Gu Fuyou was stunned. Although she saw the arrow on Sufeng Mountain, she didn't understand what was going on. The beast tide was caused by Zhong Michu. Gu Fuyou didn't know who the dragons were that had entered Dongzhou, but she subconsciously felt that it might be related to Zhong Michu's leaving the sect to go to Xuji Mountain. Zhong Michu's life experience was involved, which was originally a mess that couldn't be explained. Now that these two things happened so coincidentally together, Gu Fuyou couldn't explain why she was wronged.

If he wanted to explain it clearly, he had to first reveal Zhong Michu's identity. But if he let them know Zhong Michu's identity, would they kill her to eliminate the trouble forever? And even if he told them the whole story, would they believe it

But if it is not made clear and the injustice of Xiaoyao City is not explained clearly, the three continents will definitely stand on the side of the Zuo family. Naturally, in order to control the Qilin Marrow openly and to unify Nanzhou secretly, they will turn a blind eye to it, because the life and death of a city or a sect cannot be as important as the prosperity of the entire human race.

Gu Fuyou was in a state of confusion and shook his head, "No, no..."

Suddenly, a hot, fishy wind blew from behind, and someone shouted, "Chongyu, stop!"

Gu Fuyou turned around and saw a ferocious spirit beast, its body pitch black, its feet on fire, and a man being dragged by its tail. The spirit beast ran to her, opened its mouth towards her, with sharp teeth, saliva dripping from its lips, and melted the blue bricks into magma when it landed on the ground.

Gu Fuyou's heart seemed to fall from the sky in an instant, and a chill crept up his spine. This is the Fire Cloud Dragon. Wasn't it attacking Xiaoyao City with the Zuo family? Why is it here? Does its presence mean...

Zuo Yuezhi's face changed, and he shouted, "Chong Yu, retreat!" He brought the Fire Cloud Jiao with him, first as a fighting force, and second for tracking. Many spiritual beasts and talismans used for tracking are not as effective as the Fire Cloud Jiao. Once it remembers the smell, it can find the person by following the smell, whether in the sky, in the water, or on land, thousands of miles apart. This time, he wanted it to smell Gu Fuyou's scent. If he lost her, he would not look for her like a headless fly as before. Although it was a sure thing to catch Gu Fuyou this time, there were unexpected events, so just in case, with the previous experience of Xuanmiao Sect, for the sake of Qilin Marrow, it would not be too cautious now.

But he didn't expect such a change to happen. The Fire Cloud Dragon didn't listen to him at all. It looked like it was attracted by the smell of Gu Fuyou and couldn't stop the instinct of the spirit beast - appetite.

The Fire Cloud Dragon had a high level of cultivation, and Zuo Yuezhi had no time to stop it, so it opened its bloody mouth and was about to swallow half of Gu Fuyou's body into its mouth.

In an instant, white mist filled Gu Fuyou's belt. With a dragon's roar, a white shadow flew out from it, circling higher and getting bigger. In the blink of an eye, it turned Gu Fuyou into a pillar. The white dragon coiled around her, and the Fire Cloud Dragon bit the white dragon.

The white dragon roared, turned around and bit the Fire Cloud Dragon's neck, lifted it up and flew into the air, dragging it away from Gu Fuyou.

Everyone's first reaction was, look, there is indeed a dragon. Then they thought, how could this dragon come out of Gu Fuyou? Then, everyone's expression froze. Lu Yandong said, "Why, why is it a white dragon!"

Zuo Yuezhi's face also turned green. He guessed that this dragon might be the dragon that dragged Gu Fuyou during the canyon race. He turned his head and asked the people beside him: "Is this the dragon you saw at the beginning?"

"Yes, it's a bit like..." The man saw that the guardian looked unhappy, and he couldn't help but stutter: "The one at the beginning had no horns, this one..."

The dragon's horns are as long as a finger.

Zuo Yuezhi raised his hand and slapped him: "Why don't you say it's Bai Long!"

This person wanted to defend himself, but you never asked! Zuo Yuezhi really didn't ask, and those people were only concerned about whether it was a dragon or a worm, and completely ignored the color.

Seeing Lu Yandong showing a bit of panic, Lu Bing was very puzzled and asked, "Dad, what happened to Bai Long?"

Lu Yandong said: "The royal family of the five-clawed dragons is the only white dragon. The dragon race's belief and loyalty to the royal bloodline is incomparable to that of the human race. In the past, the four seas had two royal families, the golden dragon and the divine dragon, who jointly elected a king to lead the entire family. Now that the golden dragon royal family has been destroyed, the divine dragon royal family has always led all dragons. Now that the royal bloodline has withered, there is only one white dragon lineage left. The dragon king is Emperor Jun, and his son Emperor Wujiang is rumored to have died more than ninety years ago. Emperor Jun was furious, and that's why he set off a huge wave in the East China Sea. This white dragon, this white dragon..."

Lu Yandong murmured, "It must be the descendant of Di Jun, or Di Wujiang. If it died in my Dongzhou territory, the only two royal bloodlines would have perished. How could they let it go?" When Di Wujiang happened, Di Jun did not make a big fuss about it. One reason was that he only had a feeling in his heart, and he did not know for sure that Di Wujiang was dead. He did have some luck in his heart. The other reason was that he did not know who killed Di Wujiang.

Now, the life and death of this white dragon is under the watch of many eyes. Lu Yandong is worried that this white dragon was sent by Emperor Jun to contact Gu Fuyou. If so, if it does not return safely, Emperor Jun will be able to find out who did it. How can he let these culprits off at that time

Lu Yandong was talking to Lu Bing. The white dragon howled in pain. It turned out that the Fire Cloud Flood Dragon's sharp claws had scraped off the scales on the white dragon's body. Although the two were of similar size, everyone could sense that the Fire Cloud Flood Dragon's cultivation was much higher than that of the white dragon.

Several people lurking outside the City Lord's Mansion saw the two beasts fighting in the sky. Xiao Qian asked, "Mr. Accountant, do you think this looks like His Majesty?"

The accountant stroked his beard and said, "I'm afraid it's your Highness's flesh and blood."

The vice president saw the shining chips falling from the sky and found out they were dragon scales. His face immediately turned red and he cursed, "Oh, fuck your old mother, a dragon swimming in the shallows is attracting shrimps. What are you two talking about? If you delay any longer, the little adult will be scraped to pieces. Hurry up and call the brothers to go to the City Lord's Mansion to rescue him!"
