While Mu Qing was still in Tiannan, cooperating with Murong Jian and others in acting, the group entered Suzaku City.
Inside the private room of Xianweiju Inn in the east of the city.
The businessman who was mentioned by Murong Jian was respectfully introducing the other people in the box to the old man sitting at the head. When the introduction was completed, he breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Master Zhangyin, everything is done. Wait until you confirm it yourself."
The latest palm seal of Qin Tian Jian, Ling Shuzi, is an old man with a clear face. Perhaps in order not to attract attention, he only wears plain clothes and looks like an ordinary person. But at this moment, he is the only one in this box. Being able to sit down and have a cup of tea.
The smile on the merchant's face was already a little stiff, and he coughed lightly: "Lord Palmprint, what are your orders?"
A trace of gloom flashed in Lingshuzi's eyes, he raised his head indifferently and said, "There are a few people in the east of the city who are not weak. Why did you lead us here?"
"I heard that Murong Jing has already reached the late stage of transcendence after returning from the Northern Wilderness, but no matter how powerful she is, there is no way she can compare to Senior Lingshuzi." A voice flattered.
"Humph." Lingshuzi snorted coldly and looked at the speaker.
When Murong Xiu Ming saw Ling Shuzi looking at him, he quickly raised his hands and said respectfully: "Junior Murong Xiu Ming, my father Murong Yin once mentioned Senior Lingshuzi and said that your formation skills are rare even in the Western Mountain Realm."
When the origin of Lingshuzi was mentioned, he frowned for the first time and said, "I am just a casual cultivator. I was invited by His Majesty the Emperor to serve as the Supervisor of the Qintian Prison. I am a cannibal and a loyal person. , no need to bring up the past."
Murong Xiu Ming still didn't know that this flattery was not right and he was going to continue. Just when Ling Shuzi's face became more and more ugly, Zheng Shi said: "Senior, please don't worry, this Xianwei Ju was bought by Hidden Valley before. Come down here, it is now a property of the Suzaku Sect, and no one from the City Lord’s Mansion will send anyone to monitor this place.”
"How capable can the people in the City Lord's Mansion be?" Lingshuzi shook his head and wanted to say something. He glanced at the side and finally gave up.
Xiao Gaofeng and Gu Ci also came to Zhuque City. From the day they left Baidi City, their final fate had actually been decided.
Thinking of his disciples who were still in the Western Mountain Realm, Lingshuzi sighed in his heart and stopped talking about this topic. He said, "Send me to the inner city. When Mu Qing returns to Suzaku City, I will open the world of Jueling." Formation."
Murong Xiu Ming was excited and couldn't help shouting: "Great! Senior, please don't worry, there are many of our people in the inner city. We can send you into the inner city without anyone noticing. As for These two..."
Gu Ci had been to Suzaku City once, and now he returned to his old place. He was shrouded in black robes and looked lifeless. Murong Xiu Ming didn't dare to look more and looked at the middle-aged man holding the sword.
Xiao Gaofeng stroked the sword in his arms, thoughtfully, and asked, "Where are Mu Qing's family members?"
"!"
Murong Xiu Ming was startled, glanced at the businessman, frowned and said: "We didn't dare to alert the snake before, and we have never determined their location, but we all know the location of the house they lived in before, and it won't take long to determine where they live. time."
Lingshuzi frowned and said, "This is inappropriate, you know the consequences."
Xiao Gaofeng grinned: "Of course I know the consequences. I won't be stupid enough to seek death. But when the formation opens, I have to find something to do. This can be regarded as revenge."
Lingshuzi glanced at Xiao Gaofeng inexplicably and nodded slowly: "As long as you have the ability, it's up to you."
…
boom--
Another wooden house turned into debris flying all over the sky. Someone yelled, "Don't leave, you bastard." Then there were several piercing sounds running into the dense forest, leaving only the disciples who were reclaiming the forest messy in the wind.
In the dense forest, Murong Jian and others saw Mu Qing flying over after Murong Yue, and they hurriedly greeted him: "City Lord!"
Mu Qing lowered his body and landed in front of Murong Jian, with Zhong Ling'er beside him. He smiled and said, "Some acquaintances have sneaked into Suzaku City. It's time for me, the master, to go back and welcome them."
Murong Jian looked solemn and asked: "
What do we people need to do next to cooperate with the city lord? "
Mu Qing shook his head: "The play has ended, it's time to end. As for you..."
Mu Qing took out a list and handed it to Murong Jian and said, "Arrest everyone here. Your strength should be enough."
Murong Jian sighed inwardly and took the list from Mu Qing's hand honestly.
He had a lot of contact with businessmen in the past few days, and once gave Mu Qing a list. He was mentally prepared to clean up the house, but after seeing the densely packed unfamiliar names on the list, he couldn't help but blurt out and asked: "Who are these people? Why have I never heard of any of them?"
Zhong Ling'er raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard this, raised her chin and said, "These people are all disciples of the Suzaku Sect. Everything they have done in the inner city these days has not escaped my eyes. With what they have done, You deserve to die."
"It turns out it's these people..."
When Murong Jian heard this, he subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, and even more admired Mu Qing's control over the situation. With a hint of fear in his expression, he assured: "City Lord, please rest assured, none of these people can escape."
Mu Qing said: "I need you to catch them alive, should it be okay?"
Murong Jian said: "Of course."
Murong Yue stood aside and listened for so long, and finally couldn't hold it back and asked: "What about Murong Yin and Jiang Xingyuan? These two people are a little hidden. I feel that their strength is not weak."
Mu Qing smiled and said: "They have never recognized the existence of the Vermillion Bird Sect. Someone specifically told me to leave these two people to her."
…
With Zhong Ling'er here, it didn't take long for Mu Qing and his party to return to Suzaku City. Mu Qing specifically asked Murong Jian to contact the merchant to tell him that he had returned to Suzaku City, and he took Zhong Ling'er to Jiuyou Tower.
The White Jade Square outside Jiuyou Tower was still as busy as ever, with people coming and going.
Zhong Ling'er was lying on the window sill. Mu Qing stood beside her and watched the movement in the square for a while. He turned around when he heard the footsteps coming to the door of the study.
Cao Jin appeared at the door of the study, holding a piece of silk in his hand. He nodded to Mu Qing, walked in and put the silk on the wooden table. He smiled with a sense of accomplishment and said: "City Lord, I am fortunate to have fulfilled my destiny."
Mu Qing returned to the desk and sat down, opened the silk, and said: "How I can continue to perform with Murong Jian and the others outside the city is doubtful. I have to put some pressure on Gu Ci and the others, but thank you for the hard work."
Cao Jin shook his head and said: "I have been extremely excited these days since I heard the city lord's plan. If everything goes well, I may be able to reach a state that I have never thought of before. It is the city lord who gave me such an opportunity."
Mu Qing stretched out his hand to interrupt Cao Jin's flattery, glanced at the silk briefly, and said with satisfaction: "Have you explained the consequences to these hundred people clearly?"
"Of course." Cao Jin took a few steps closer and said, "Forty people from the Guards, forty from the Suzaku Sect, and twenty from Wanhua Valley and the City Lord's Mansion. I have already asked General Xing before asking them for their opinions face to face. They made sure these people were clean."
Zhong Ling'er frowned upon hearing this and stared at Cao Jin with dissatisfaction.
When Cao Jin saw Zhong Ling'er staring at him, his old face was startled. After realizing it, he quickly praised: "Sect Master Ling'er also helped me a lot. I can be sure that none of the people on the silk silk have any contact with Murong Yin. .”
When Mu Qing saw this scene, he couldn't help but smile and said: "What I have done these days is to lure the snake out of its hole. It was a bit troublesome to monitor the betrayal of the disciples in Suzaku City, but it is much easier with Ling'er's help. And Ling'er is also I discovered the whereabouts of Gu Ci and his gang, otherwise I would have to act with Murong Jian and his gang."
Zhong Ling'er snorted and raised her head proudly.
With the help of Xichuan and the Suzaku Seal in hand, Zhong Ling'er is now standing in the study, looking wherever he wants.
Mu Qing thanked the little girl for a few words, and then continued to talk about the matter Cao Jin was handling. He said seriously: "It is indeed important to make sure that the identities of these people are clean, but have you made it clear to them the risks of this matter?"
"If they are not careful, they are all at risk of death.
"
"Why……"
Cao Jin smiled calmly: "The city lord is overly worried. These people I found are all cultivators, and I also informed them of the dangers involved. However, in the face of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, not one of these hundred people flinched. ".
Just as Mu Qing was about to nod, Cao Jin changed the topic: "But there is a candidate that you, the city lord, may need to decide on."
Mu Qing frowned, turned his gaze to the silk fabric again, and said, "Since they themselves agree, why do they still need me to make a decision? Hmm? Junior Sister Jiahe?"
When Mu Qing saw the name at the end of the silk thread, he raised his head and asked, "Are you talking about her?"
Cao Jin nodded and said: "This girl Jiahe is naturally very friendly to the power of luck. If she were a man, she would be a ten thousand dragon body... It's a long way to go..."
Cao Jin continued with some embarrassment: "Actually, the city lord can also imagine that her recent speed of breaking through the realm can be said to be the first person under you. Master Huaigu and her master disagree, and I, half the master, can't do anything. "
Mu Qing stood up, frowning and said, "I heard Yue Jiu mention Junior Sister Jiahe before. I have been too busy and haven't talked to her during this period. I don't know..."
Cao Jin seemed to be waiting for these words, and quickly turned sideways and said: "Jiahe, the city wants to see you."
"..."
Mu Qing raised his eyebrows, glanced at the old guy Cao Jin, and did not refuse.
"Senior Brother Mu Qing."
A clear voice sounded at the door of the study. Mu Qing looked up and couldn't help but squint slightly.
I don't know whether it was because of the improvement of his realm or other reasons, Bai Jiahe's temperament became more and more pure. Mu Qing was very frank and did not hide the admiration in his eyes. He smiled and said: "Junior Sister Jiahe, you seem to be more beautiful than before. .”
Bai Jiahe paused for a moment as he entered the study room, paused inadvertently, and then came to the desk. The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and a bright smile bloomed on his fair and soft face: "I met Sister Ye Yun a few days ago. She is truly beautiful, and my senior brother is so beautiful."
Mu Qing coughed lightly and said seriously: "Jiahe, I think my aunt and uncle Huai Cao Shi have already told you how dangerous this matter is, so you don't have to worry this time."
Bai Jiahe shook his head, and although his voice was soft, he said firmly: "Practitioners should follow the Tao. Senior brother, this is my Tao."
At this time, Cao Jin said with some guilt: "When I first arrived in Zhuque City, I extracted a dragon energy from Jiahe's body. At that time, I knew that Jiahe was like me, with a special physique that could accommodate luck. And the city lord In order to save her at that time, I helped her refine part of the power of luck, and this is what she has on the path of luck."
"..."
"I didn't expect that I would become your guide."
Mu Qing thought of the Qi-eating method he had given to Bai Jiahe, and felt helpless. He walked up to Bai Jiahe and said, "Jiahe, would you like me to take an inside look at your cultivation?"
Bai Jiahe tucked a strand of hair behind his ear and said with a calm smile, "Of course it's no problem. After all, senior brother, you are half of my master."
