When Xu Hui mentioned the "Nine Death Bridge", all the immortals expressed their amazement.
The older ones, such as Duochenzi, felt as if thousands of horses were rushing through their hearts, and were completely speechless.
The Nine Death Bridge is located to the north of Yuanjin Mountain, which is also the northernmost place in Tai'er. It is a place that can be called the end of the earth.
Just from the name, you can tell that it is a place where there is no life. For all the true immortals here, it is also a forbidden place that has never been to.
It is rumored that there was once a demon immortal under the sect, named Taoist Cat. He cultivated nine immortal souls, which was also known as having nine lives. He had great magical powers and was the number one demon immortal in the world. However, he was ordered to go to the Nine Death Bridge. From then on, Then there was no trace.
Nine Deaths Hashimoto was originally unknown, but was later changed to "Nine Deaths".
It is also said that the sect leader was very sad about this, and from then on he swore an oath not to accept demons and immortals as his disciples. This also created the current situation where the sect is basically composed of human immortals.
In fact, even Xu Hui doesn't know what the Nine Deaths Bridge is, and what's in that area. Behind Yuanjin Mountain, there is a [Three Knot Demon Subduing Formation] set up by the Master himself, which has completely destroyed the Nine Deaths Bridge. Isolated from the outside world, there is only a small door and a few guarding immortals. Only immortals of Xu Hui's level can cross Yuanjin Mountain. Even if the twelve true immortals in front of them go under that formation, some of them are left in despair. risk.
The reason why Xu Hui thought of this place was that his teaching master had told Xu Hui many years ago that if he encounters any immortal and untamable monster, he can catch it and send it to the Nine Deaths Bridge outside the array, treating it as the second strongest bridge in the world. 's prison.
Xu Hui still remembers asking why he was the second strongest person in the world? The teacher smiled but did not answer.
Regarding sending Li Wan to the Bridge of Nine Deaths, Xu Hui had actually thought about it for a long time, but felt that the risk was too great, so he kept him by his side and slowly taught him a lesson. He never expected that Li Wan would cause such a terrible disaster in the blink of an eye. Xu Hui So he made a quick decision. In fact, he had already decided on the matter before setting off.
The reason for coming here is actually just to go through the motions, find something to talk about, and go back to stop Li Qi's mouth.
Thinking of this, Xu Hui looked around and returned to his usual friendly smile: "What? What do you think? If everyone agrees, I will personally escort Li Wan there."
Feimian Zhenjun, who was closest to Xu Hui, took the lead in clapping his hands and saying "good", and then several followers of the Xian family stood up and clapped their hands in applause.
Of course, some people still sit still, thinking.
As the initiator of this meeting, Duochenzi was the first to stand up and express his position, saying: "I think Senior Brother Xu's arrangement is quite ideal. It not only meets the demands of both parties, but is also the most peaceful approach. I agree with Senior Brother Xu's proposal. It’s just that I have to work hard for my senior brother, this should be a matter within the scope of the Twelve Immortals, but in the end I still have to rely on my senior brother’s care.”
Zhan Wuji next to him also stood up and clasped his fists: "These arrangements are indeed comprehensive. As long as Li Wan is willing to go, it will naturally greatly reduce the possibility of conflicts. Senior Brother Xu cares about the world and values peace. I will wait for you." If you want to kill someone well, you must learn more from your senior brother."
It would be better for Zhan Wuji and his Internal Affairs Sect not to go into this muddy water.
No matter how many objections the immortals had, they all stood up to support it. At this point, the most important issue of this meeting was concluded.
As soon as the business was finished, Duochenzi said that all the immortals were busy people who had not seen each other for hundreds of years. Taking this opportunity, Yuanjin Mountain held a three-day banquet and invited the brothers to reminisce about old friendships and exchange ideas. The most important thing about Taoism is to discuss and make suggestions for the development of this religion, so that when the leader comes back from his travels, he can report it to his elders.
While talking, the side doors on both sides opened, and a team of fairy servants came in, replacing the fairy dew snacks with chalcedony, Tianxue, vegetarian dates, flat peaches, heart rice... A fairy banquet was spread out on the spot.
Xu Hui refused, and drank dozens of drinks with the immortals before refusing to go back to recover. He stood up and said goodbye, preparing to rush back to Shengdu overnight.

It was a bit difficult to fly to the clouds at night, so I spent a little more time. By the time Xu Hui arrived in Shengdu and returned to Qingjing Academy, it was already close to midnight.
As expected, the emperor had already sent someone to wait for his return at the academy, waiting for first-hand news.
Huang Shu, the head chamberlain, stood alone in the front hall on the first floor, raising his head and squinting to admire the "Study Picture" hanging behind the incense table in front of him. He was tall and straight, like a spruce tree standing in front of him.
Hearing the movement behind him, Huang Shu turned around, immediately saluted, and said respectfully: "Sir, thank you for your hard work. The emperor ordered this old slave to wait here for your return. I would like to ask."
Xu Hui returned the courtesy slightly and followed the trend: "Zhongguan, I have been waiting for a long time. I wonder what the emperor wants to ask?"
Huang Shu didn't even raise his head, and his tone was more respectful: "Your Majesty just wants to ask if he can sleep peacefully tonight."
Xu Hui smiled and said, "If I'm sorry to trouble you, I'll report it back to the emperor. Okay."
"Just these two words."
"Just these two words."
"Then...sir, please rest early. This old slave has resigned."
Xu Hui cupped his hands and said, "Well done, Zhongguan, I won't send you off."
Huang Shu walked away, walking very fast, wanting to report the good news to Li Qi immediately. After walking for half a mile, he realized that he was covered in cold sweat in the middle of the winter, and he had almost half a headache. A sneeze that could be heard throughout the palace.
Xu Hui went up to the fourth floor alone and called out to Red Boy and Lan Boy several times, but no one responded. Then he remembered that these two people had been sent to Li Wan's house to suppress the battle.
Xu Hui was a little sleepy and felt some inexplicable irritability in his heart. He couldn't bear to look in anymore, so he found a pot of wine and drank a few drinks until he was a little drunk. Finally, he slept on the couch where he usually entertained guests. .
Xu Hui woke up suddenly when he fell asleep.
I just felt like I had a dream before, but I couldn't remember what I dreamed about.
In a daze, I heard someone crying softly outside the door.
It was the voice of the red boy Hongxuan.
Xu Hui was confused, shouldn't she be in Li Wan's "Flower Pecking Palace"? Why did you come back before dawn?
After calling out, it turned out to be Hongxuan.
Looking at her appearance again, Xu Hui was shocked and asked hurriedly: "What's going on?"
The red boy's hair was disheveled, his clothes were torn in several places, and his eyes were frighteningly red. He must have been crying for a long time.
"First... sir, Lan Fu, he... he, he, he... he is dead..."
Xu Hui still didn't understand the muffled voice, so he asked again.
"Hongxuan, please speak slowly, what happened to Lan Fu?"
"Sir! Lan Fu died in the Flower Pecking Palace. Lan Fu is dead!"
The red boy couldn't bear it anymore and burst into tears.
Some people died, but not completely...
