Wu Xingwen was very satisfied with the final result of this council meeting. Some things are like this. The more you refuse to give in, the other people will rush forward. Wu Xingwen originally considered everyone sincerely and felt that it would indeed be more dangerous to encounter powerful demonic corpses at the level of the mid-Mahayana stage. In fact, if you think about what Cao Meng did, you will understand that if these demon corpses are not dangerous, Cao Meng himself can be regarded as a veteran late Mahayana cultivator, why would he come to the Elders Council and invite a few friends by himself? Did you get it done in a sneaky way? Unfortunately, when the benefits are great enough, all everyone thinks about is not to leave themselves behind. As a result, all the forces participating in this council signed up to join the demon-killing team, and almost all of them sent out their strongest people. Why do I say almost? Because, although there is a force that also joined the Demon Slayer Team, the strongest person in that force did not sign up to become a member.
After the meeting, Wu Xingwen left Ma Xing alone. Wu Xingwen looked at the expressionless Ma Xing in front of him and asked with concern: "There has been no news from your family leader for a long time. This time, your family leader is not with the demon-killing team either." If you participate, you won’t say that he is ill, right?”
Ma Xing smiled: "Haha, Chief, you are so polite, you care so much about my ancestor. Unfortunately, you guessed wrong. My ancestor is in very good health. The reason why he did not join the demon extermination team is that my ancestor has some feelings in his heart. I feel like an immortal."
Wu Xingwen was very surprised. He was already strong enough and he didn't feel anything until now. As for Ma Shengyu, the head of the Ma family, his strength has always been in the middle among several major families. No matter what, it is not his turn to ascend to the fairy world first. After Wu Xingwen was surprised, all that was left was suspicion, thinking that this Ma Xing would not say that he was deliberately deceiving him.
"Then I really have to congratulate your family leader. This is great news for us in the spiritual world. When you go back, can you discuss it with your family leader? We would like to visit your family leader. If we can It would be best to hold a seminar with the head of your family." Wu Xingwen took the initiative to visit Ma's family because he also wanted to see Ma Xing's answer.
Ma Xing smiled slightly and immediately replied: "No problem. In fact, I came here this time to ask for something."
Wu Xingwen was stunned for a moment and said, "Please tell me, if we can do it, we will definitely not refuse."
The request made by Ma Xing is actually a tradition among cultivators, but no one has made this request for so many years, so everyone has forgotten it. Wu Xingwen had never encountered such a thing since he became chief, so he was stunned by this request. Later, he still called Du Tinghan over, and after Du Tinghan's explanation, he understood that, It turns out that cultivators still have such a tradition.
Ma Xin's request was actually for the head of his family. It turned out that Ma Shengyu, the head of the Ma family, wanted to borrow the gourd weapon used by the inspection agency to store various information. Back then, the original purpose of this gourd was to resist immortal tribulations. Later, it was transformed by Lord Ling Emperor into a database that could store various information. Since this gourd had been dealing with immortal tribulations for a long time, not only did it The body is indestructible, and it also has a certain spirituality. It feels like it is almost a spirit. Therefore, this gourd can not only store endless amounts of data, but also has the flavor of artificial intelligence. It can be said that this thing has become an indispensable and important item in the daily work of the inspection agency. Therefore, when Ma Xing made this request, Wu Xingwen rejected the request without hesitation. It wasn't until Ma Xing and Du Tinghan said that this was the tradition of cultivators that Wu Xingwen began to really think about this request.
In the rules formulated by Lord Ling Emperor, it is clearly stated that when cultivators prepare to face the immortal tribulation and ascend to the immortal world, they can borrow this gourd from the inspection agency. According to this rule, it was really difficult for Wu Xingwen to refuse Ma Shengyu's request. However, Wu Xingwen's mind turned quickly enough, and it didn't take long for him to find a reasonable reason.
"The head of your family, are you about to undergo the Immortal Tribulation now?" Wu Xingwen asked.
"How is that possible? I just have feelings now. It is estimated that it will take a lot of time to comprehend before you can truly overcome the Immortal Tribulation." Ma Xing replied.
"Oh, that's it, then that's no problem. When your family head prepares to undergo the Immortal Tribulation, I will definitely send this gourd there myself.
, will definitely not delay his journey through the Immortal Tribulation. ”Wu Xingwen immediately agreed.
Of course Ma Xing knew what Wu Xingwen meant, so he smiled bitterly and said, "The head of my family needs gourds just to enhance his understanding!"
"You won't say that the head of your family needs it now. If so, it will be difficult for me. You also know that this gourd is really important to the entire inspection agency. Without it, we can't even carry out our work. ." Wu Xingwen also had a troubled look on his face, and Du Tinghan on the side also looked troubled.
Ma Xing said seriously: "Of course it is impossible for our Ma family to do this. Before coming here, the head of my family had already thought of a good way to use the gourd to gain insights without delaying the inspection agency's work."
"Oh, what's a good idea?" Wu Xingwen was a little surprised.
"Since the gourd cannot be borrowed, the head of my family can come to inspect the headquarters." Ma Xing replied.
"Really? Can the head of your family really feel safe coming to inspect the headquarters?" Wu Xingwen was very surprised.
"The inspection headquarters is as solid as gold. How can I be worried if the head of my family comes here to practice?" Ma Xing said with a smile.
"That's what I say, but the concentration of spiritual energy in the patrol headquarters is not as good as your cultivation holy land! To be honest, the patrol headquarters has never been a good training place. If this delays the cultivation of your family leader, we can't afford it This responsibility!" Wu Xingwen said.
"The head of my family has said that what matters to him now is not aura, but perception. After thinking about it, the only object in the spiritual world that can be related to the immortal calamity is this gourd. Otherwise, he would also This request will not be made," Ma Xing explained.
In this way, Wu Xingwen had no choice but to agree to the Ma family's request. Wu Xingwen still kept an eye on it and asked that only Ma Shengyu could come over alone. Moreover, during the day, Ma Shengyu was not allowed to stay in the room where the gourd was to gain insights. Unexpectedly, Ma Xing borrowed Po Xia Donkey again, which meant that Ma Shengyu would be inconvenienced if he came here alone. Could he bring a maid here so that he could take care of his daily life more conveniently?
"That's not the case. We cultivators usually don't eat very much. We just sleep. However, most people use meditation instead of sleeping. Why do we have problems with daily life?" Wu Xingwen was a little uneasy. .
"Actually, this maid of my ancestor also does some personal services." Although Ma Xing said it very cryptically, Wu Xingwen, as a man, reacted immediately.
Du Tinghan was stunned for a moment after hearing this, but he quickly came to his senses. Since Du Tinghan herself was a woman, although she had slander in her heart, it was difficult to express it. She felt that Ma Shengyu was just an old gangster who was going to become an immortal soon, yet he still liked this kind of thing. Du Tinghan knew that Ma Shengyu must be quite old, probably not much younger than Huang Ren.
In contrast, Wu Xingwen had no such concerns, and he said it directly: "The head of your family must be quite old. The last time we met, it was at the Ling Emperor's ascension celebration. I remember him. Is your lifespan coming to an end soon?"
"Yes, the head of my family and the head of the Huang family are of the same generation. That's why I hope to use the gourd to speed up my understanding." Ma Xing replied.
"You are so old, shouldn't you focus all your attention on your feelings? Do you need to exercise some restraint when it comes to men and women?" Wu Xingwen reminded kindly.
"Chief, I understand what you mean. However, the main purpose of my family is not to have sex with men. The main purpose is to leave behind descendants." Ma Xing's answer surprised Wu Xingwen even more.
"Has the head of your family never had any children?" Wu Xingwen asked.
"Of course there is. However, due to his low cultivation quality, he passed away a few years ago." Ma Xing replied helplessly.
In fact, every family has a difficult scripture to recite. Situations like Ma Shengyu's are indeed relatively common in the world of cultivation. However, few people like Ma Shengyu are still considering leaving offspring at such an old age. Some things are also self-evident, obviously. The children are all dead, so Ma Shengyu's first wife is probably dead even earlier.
To be honest, it must be very difficult to find a woman suitable to give birth to offspring for a late-stage Mahayana cultivator like Ma Shengyu. First of all, the strength should not be too bad, and the age should not be too old, otherwise, the chance of pregnancy will be affected. .
Du Tinghan was a little curious and asked, "How old is that maid? What level is she in?"
Ma Xing said with a smile: "Actually, I'm not very familiar with this maid, but she's pretty good and has already passed the tribulation stage. The key is that she's relatively young."
"In that case, she can be regarded as a very talented cultivator. Can she be willing to be the head of your family?" Du Tinghan asked. To be honest, she couldn't understand this kind of thing.
"Haha, Captain Du, I really can't answer your question. In terms of status, including strength, the head of my family can be regarded as one of the top ten existences in the spiritual world. Except for age, there are no other advantages. He is absolutely excellent in all aspects. Moreover, the head of my family looks like a middle-aged man, not a bad old man. Such a man should be welcomed by many women." Ma Xinggan laughed twice. , explained.
"Oh, really?" Du Tinghan muttered and stopped asking further.
In the end, Wu Xingwen could only agree. When Ma Shengyu came over, there was another maid beside him. Since Ma Shengyu is going to inspect the headquarters, there is no need for them to visit Ma Shengyu at Ma's house. Wu Xingwen was a little excited, because after so many years, there was another cultivator in the spiritual world who had the feeling of becoming an immortal. Stones from other mountains can attack jade. For Wu Xingwen, he really wanted to know what Ma Shengyu did to realize the existence of the fairy world faster than others.
After waiting for the horse to walk, Wu Xingwen thought about it and suddenly discovered that during this period, magical things happened one after another. First there was the extremely powerful Celestial God, then there was the demon corpse that was resurrected from the dead, and now, even the cultivators who had the feeling of ascending to immortality appeared again. As long as one of these three happy events can be harvested, it will be a huge happy event for myself. Wu Xingwen felt both excited and a little stressed. At this moment, he saw Du Tinghan who was also thinking in front of him. Looking at Du Tinghan's delicate face, he couldn't help but feel tenderness in his heart, so he He stretched out his hand and held Du Tinghan in his arms.
Wu Xingwen whispered in Du Tinghan's ear: "Let's have an offspring too!"
