There were also discoveries in several other places. Mo Qin followed the clues and came to a dilapidated courtyard.
There was no one guarding the yard, and Mo Qin felt like she was in a deserted place. She soon discovered a secret tunnel behind the portrait in the main room of the yard.
The tunnel went downwards slowly at first, then continued to be flat, and then started to go uphill until it was about to reach the exit.
The tunnel seemed to be used for transporting something, and there were deep ruts on the dirt.
Mo Qin followed the secret passage and walked for a long time before finding the exit.
Mo Qin looked around. There was no one outside, but there were several large wooden boxes in the room where the exit was.
The large black wooden boxes were polished to a shiny shine and neatly stacked together. There was a long-lasting fragrance in the whole room.
This smell is not unfamiliar.
The box was not locked, so Mo Qin casually opened a box and saw that the box was full of blue beads.
The remaining boxes also contained these.
Compared to the one here, the one last time pales into insignificance.
It’s hard to imagine how many victims it would take to get so many.
Are there any other places that have it...
Mo Qin was about to go out to take a look when the door of the house was suddenly blown open by a strong gust of wind.
The door hit the wall with a clang, as if it was about to fall apart.
Sunlight shines in from the door, and outside the house is a square made of polished stone slabs.
Xue Xi was dressed in white, standing under the sun, tall and tall, like a finely carved statue.
Seeing Mo Qin, his eyebrows arched, obviously very happy.
"We meet again, Miss Mo."
Mo Qin was not surprised to see Xue Xi.
She stepped out of the room, and the door she reached was closed, and she even carefully affixed a charm.
If a fight really breaks out, the things in the house are the best supplies for the demon.
Xue Xi chuckled, as if he was laughing at Mo Qin for doing something unnecessary.
Mo Qin looked at Xue Xi and did not detect any demonic aura in Xue Xi.
She guessed: "Are you a half-demon?"
To be able to cover up the demonic energy so perfectly, unless he is a powerful big demon, or a half-demon with a weak demonic aura to begin with.
With special means, the half-demon might actually be able to hide his identity perfectly.
It just so happens that the people active in the capital right now are all half-demon.
Xue Xi did not deny it, but nodded honestly, "You guessed it right, but unfortunately there is no reward."
So what if you are a half-demon? A half-demon can also change your fate against the will of heaven, and is so powerful that you can trample demons under your feet, and make the exorcists fool around.
"Your uncle has thrown you out as bait, aren't you afraid?"
On the surface, Mo Qin and others found three clues with different directions. In fact, Song Tan had one more clue, which pointed directly to Concubine Xiang in the palace.
That was a flaw that Xue Xi deliberately leaked, using Concubine Xiang as bait to force Song Tan into the game.
As expected, Song Tan fell into the trap and dispersed everyone in an attempt to divert his attention, intending to take down Concubine Xiang in one fell swoop.
Little did they know that Concubine Xiang in the palace was half of Xue Xi. He set up this trap, but his real target was Mo Qin.
As long as Song Tan eats Mo Qin before she reacts, Song Tan will be no match for him!
Xue Xi was able to discover Mo Qin's identity thanks to them sneaking into Xue Mansion.
After discovering that Mo Qin's bloodline was special, Xue Xi immediately changed his strategy.
When Mo Qin saw Xue Xi, there was nothing he didn't understand.
"What do I need to be afraid of? Since my uncle has made such an arrangement, he will naturally have a way to deal with it."
Mo Qin looked like he blindly believed in his uncle's arrangement.
"Compared to you, doesn't my uncle understand my specialness better?"
Even if Song Tan didn't guess Xue Xi's true plan, she felt that she wouldn't be powerless to fight back.
If she really can't beat him, she can still run away.
Xue Xi frowned, but he really didn't see any timidity in Mo Qin.
It's not a bluff, does she really have something to rely on?
Before Xue Xi could make a move, Mo Qin made his move first.
The sharp sword was unsheathed and headed straight towards the door facing Xue Xi. Xue Xi didn't have time to think too much. He turned his wrist and held a snow-white sword in each palm of his hands.
The frost and snow were condensed, and there was still a cold air when waving.
While Mo Qin pressed forward step by step, he asked distractedly: "Snow demon?"
Xue Xi thought he was sure of victory, but he didn't expect that his superb swordsmanship, which he had cultivated for hundreds of years, was no match for a teenage girl.
"Ha, I underestimated you!"
I thought Song Tan was the most difficult one, but I didn't expect that Mo Qin kept it secret.
Xue Xi knew that he was no match for his sword skills, so he quickly distanced himself.
The two swords clashed, and a meter-wide icicle shot towards Mo Qin.
Mo Qin raised his sword to block it and blocked the menacing icicle.
When he raised his eyes, Xue Xi had already risen into the sky. Not only was it suitable, but there was already a little bit of white frost on Xue Xi's body. He made a few gestures in the air, and under the scorching sun, snowflakes actually started to float.
The sun was shining on me, but the temperature around me dropped very quickly.
When the snowflakes fall on the ground, they do not melt, but form a thin layer of ice on the ground.
Mo Qin was afraid that there was something wrong with the snowflake, so he put a protective shield around his body, wrapping Mo Qin in it like a layer of gauze.
Before the little bits of white snow fell on her shoulders, they were burned by the protective shield.
But despite this, Mo Qin still felt that he was restricted, and his movements seemed to become slower.
Xue Xi raised his two swords again and attacked Mo Qin.
This time the two actually fought back and forth.
The surrounding temperature is still dropping, and the protective shield on Mo Qin's body has no insulation effect. Xue Xi is a snow demon in the first place. This cold environment not only does not restrict his movements, but also has a positive effect on him.
The two were fighting fiercely when suddenly Xue Xi's figure flashed out of the way, and Mo Qin stabbed him in the shoulder with his sword.
Xue Xi frowned and his face became serious.
Mo Qin took advantage of the victory to pursue, and landed several sword blows on Xue Xi, but none of them were fatal.
Red blood dropped to the ground, and the snow in the sky turned red.
Xue Xi's eyes were red, and he looked at Mo Qin with some eagerness.
The clone on Concubine Xiang's side could no longer resist.
The red snow was more powerful than before, and after a few times, it penetrated Mo Qin's protective shield.
The red snow pierced the skin like a needle, and blood soon appeared.
For a moment, Mo Qin couldn't tell whether it was the redness of the snowflakes or whether his own blood was redder.
-
The imperial palace, the palace of Concubine Xian.
Song Tan shook the thin sword in his hand, and pink blood splashed onto the petals that fell aside.
Concubine Xiang's face was pale, her clothes were stained red, and the ground was soaked in large amounts of blood.
"If you don't practice well as a demon, why bother attacking humans."
Concubine Xiang's always gentle eyes were as cold as ice. She sneered, "Cultivation? Human beings can't tolerate me, and the monsters can't tolerate me either. How do you want me to survive?"
"It's just a winner and a loser, so why talk so much nonsense!"
