"Take these talismans away." After the day's work of making talismans, Mo Juren stretched his body pretending to be tired, and then ordered to the girl beside him.
Through these days of getting along, he also learned something about the other party. This woman's name is Xu Xin, and she is a low-level disciple from the Huayi Sect. Because of her good talent in Fulu, she was selected to serve here. It's not just her, the other maids are also in a similar situation.
Xu Xin has a lively personality and a clever person. Especially after learning the identity of the person in front of her and what she has seen and heard these days, she regards him as an 'idol'-like existence. Some of the problems he encountered I will also take the initiative to ask for advice.
Mo Juren has no idea of hiding anything. As long as the other party asks, he will give a serious reply. This also made the latter feel more grateful to him, and there was a hint of admiration in his eyes.
"Are you still planning to go to Wanxian Tower?" Xu Xin asked while packing away the talismans on the table. This is not a strange thing. Basically, the other party will go out for a period of time every day after completing the talisman making. The location is Wanxian Tower, the largest restaurant in Tiantian City.
"After cleaning up, go down and rest. I may come back later today, so I don't have to wait outside." Mo Juren nodded and stood up immediately.
This girl is also stubborn. She will wait outside the door after delivering the talisman every day. Only when she sees him return will she feel relieved to leave. He also talked to the other party several times, but unfortunately it was of no use.
Xu Xin nodded obediently and agreed. She guessed that the other party had something to do today, but she consciously didn't ask any more questions.
…
When he walked out of the room, he met a silver-haired old man, who was also a Fu Dao master. The moment he saw him, a complex look flashed in his eyes, and it disappeared in an instant.
Those who follow the path are peers and enemies, and a similar situation will occur in the world of immortality. Even those who cultivate immortality cannot see through such things as fame and fortune.
Especially in recent times, the talismans refined by the other party have been praised and robbed by countless people, while the talismans refined by other talisman masters, including him, have been vaguely "disliked", and naturally they feel uncomfortable.
However, as uncomfortable as it is, they have to admit the fact that the spiritual talisman refined by the other party is indeed of better quality, and they cannot compare with it. This is the most helpless part.
If your skills are inferior to others, what can you do?
Putting away his chaotic thoughts, the silver-haired old man immediately raised a smile and took the initiative to say hello:
"Friend Daoist Mo, are you going out?"
"A kind of spiritual wine has just arrived at Wanxian Tower. I just want to try it. Is Fellow Daoist Zhou interested in going with us?" Mo Juren asked with a smile as if he didn't notice the other person's sudden strangeness.
"Unfortunately, Zhou has some personal matters to deal with and cannot accompany fellow Taoist monks." The silver-haired old man showed a hint of apology.
"It doesn't matter, it's not too late to get together next time if we have a chance."
It was just a small incident, so Mo Juren naturally didn't take it to heart. When he walked out of Wanfu Hall, he couldn't help but frown as he looked at the monks flying in and out of the square in front of him.
The situation is becoming more and more serious, and the entire Tiantian City is filled with a murderous atmosphere. According to the news coming back from the front line, the fighting between the two sides was extremely brutal, with countless casualties.
Even he may not be able to ensure safety in such a large-scale, unrestricted battle. The Mulan people are not like the top strong men of the good and evil paths who care about any unspoken rules. It is completely normal for a strong person in the Nascent Soul stage to personally attack the Danjie monks.
Even so, the Nine-Nation Alliance still has no intention of giving up the blockade. The reason is very simple. First, it is to buy time for the relocation of a large number of resources on the front line. Because the other party came too suddenly, and the speed of the advance was even more shocking, many resource points such as spirit stone mines, spiritual medicine gardens, etc. were not processed in time. If they could not be taken away, the Mulan people would end up being advantageous.
The second is to defend Yu State. As the largest country in the Nine-Nation Alliance, the resources within the territory are also extremely rich, so naturally the Mulan people cannot be allowed to go.
Mo Juren is not under any pressure. He is not lacking a monk in the alchemy stage on the front line. On the contrary, staying at the rear and refining a large number of intermediate spiritual talismans every day will play a greater role.
This is also the reason why he can live his life in the stable logistics with peace of mind. Even if he wants to accept some outing tasks, it is estimated that the Nine Nations Alliance will not agree.
Walking in the streets, he could clearly feel the somewhat depressing atmosphere around him. Even a moment later, when they walked to the 'Ten Thousand Immortals Tower', countless guests inside were discussing topics related to the war.
Mo Juren comes here every day for this reason, so he can grasp the dynamics of the front line in a timely manner. Even if he doesn't need to venture out, it is necessary to have this information.
However, as soon as I entered the restaurant today, I was about to find a place to sit down, but I was suddenly stopped by the waiter, and he said respectfully: "Senior Mo, there is a distinguished guest who asked me to pass on a message to you to go to the 'Yun Ya Pavilion' on the top floor. "
"Dignified guest?" Mo Juren looked slightly surprised and asked directly,
"Do you know the other party's identity?"
"It's a certain senior, he's just a little blind, I don't know the rest." After coming here many times, the clerk and the shopkeeper all know him, and they are very close to each other when talking.
"How long has he been here?"
"We'll be there at noon." The waiter replied again, but Mo Juren felt a chill in his heart. He arrived so early and invited himself immediately. Why did he feel like he was waiting for him?
He was not afraid of anything. This was Tiantian City, and no one dared to do anything to him in broad daylight. What's more, Han Zhuo also arrived here a few days ago, and with the support of the other party, there is nothing to worry about.
"lead the way!"
"Senior, please follow me."
Under the guidance of the clerk, the two went straight to the highest floor of Wanxian Tower, located in the corridor on the ninth floor.
There are not many elegant rooms here, but the environment is excellent, and Yunyage is one of them.
Mo Juren was also a little curious as to which distinguished guest was looking for him. However, when he entered the elegant room and saw someone sitting by the window, he couldn't help but be stunned.
"Are you surprised to see me?"
"How could it be?" Mo Juren came back to his senses instantly, squeezed out a smile and said,
"I just didn't expect it to be a senior, so I'm a little surprised."
The person opposite was none other than the mysterious female cultivator whom I met by chance not long ago, Wei Yurou.
Of course, the other party is no longer mysterious at this time. He mentioned this woman when he met Han Zhuo a few days ago and learned a lot of information from the other party.
Wei Yurou was from the Wei family of the Huayi Sect, and belonged to the same generation as the current head of the family, Wei Kunyang. Therefore, despite her appearance of being in her thirties, her stunning appearance, and even more charming temperament, her real age is over 800 years old.
This woman also has another identity, the master of the Blood Palace, an extremely strange force. The Palace of the Blood Girl is located in the Xueku Ridge on the northern border of the Xu Kingdom. Theoretically, it happens to be the junction area between the Nine Nations Alliance and the Good and Demonic Paths.
Therefore, it is not governed by any party.
The relationship between Wei Yurou and the Wei family is very delicate. When she was very young, she was kicked out of the house for some unknown reasons, and there was no news after that. It wasn't until more than a hundred years later that the other party showed up again. At that time, she was already a genuine monk in the alchemy stage.
His strength is even more extraordinary. He actually practices the legendary blood technique, and his combat power far exceeds that of monks of the same level. She did not return to the Wei family to recognize her ancestors, but chose to establish a sect in Xueku Ridge and establish the Blood Girl Palace.
Wei Yurou is extremely talented and has already reached the Nascent Soul stage in less than four hundred years. The Blood Lady Palace has also developed rapidly due to its strong strength and influence.
After another two hundred years, her cultivation level once again broke through, entering the middle stage of Nascent Soul, and it was possible for the Blood Lady Palace to grow again. However, at this critical moment, an accident happened.
For unknown reasons, the Blood Lady Palace began to dismiss a large number of its disciples. In just a few months, a large sect that was supposed to rise instantly fell apart and turned into a small force with only a few hundred people.
Later, I realized that it was because the Master of the Blood Lady Palace had gone wrong in her practice, which caused her cultivation to regress, and she fell directly from the middle stage of Yuanying to the early stage of Yuanying.
There are even rumors that the blood path technique he cultivates has too many drawbacks, and it may not be able to survive even in the early stage of Nascent Soul, and it is not uncommon for him to fall to the elixir-formation stage one day.
In the next nearly two hundred years, Wei Yurou never showed up again, and the Blood Lady Palace kept a low profile, like a closed mountain, rarely walking around in the world.
After listening to Han Zhuo's story, Mo Juren couldn't help but be a little surprised. The ups and downs of this woman's life really felt a bit "magnificent".
It's just that after so much experience, the other person should have extraordinary magnanimity. Why didn't he feel this way when they first met? On the contrary, she is charming and cold, like a seducing fairy.
As for those rumors, they are not credible. At least for now, it seems that the other party's cultivation level is still at the Nascent Soul stage, which shows that it has not fallen again. Or maybe the other party has thought of some way to solve the shortcomings.
In short, Han Zhuo's advice to him is to stay away from this girl as much as possible. This is a weirder existence than the real person Ji Qing Zong Liao Qing. If you get close, you may fall into a trap one day.
Mo Juren was naturally accommodating, and he never thought about having any entanglement with the other party.
However, some things cannot be avoided if you want to avoid them. Just like today, I just came to rest for a while and understand the situation of the battle, but inexplicably saw the other party again.
After thinking so much, it was actually only for a moment, and his expression did not change at all.
"I heard that a batch of top-quality spiritual wine has arrived in Wanxian Tower. I was just curious for a moment, so I came here to taste it. I didn't expect that I just saw you, so I invited you up." Wei Yurou took out a cup again, He held the pot in his delicate hands and slowly poured it out, then he said,
"We are destined to meet each other. This is the second time that you and I have met, and it is even more fateful. Such a rare fate, you just happen to sit down and have a drink with me?"
Hearing this, Mo Juren complained in his heart and called himself up to drink with him. Is it serious? And the excuse I gave is a bit far-fetched. Is it a rare fate to meet twice? I come to Wanxian Tower every day and have met with the shopkeeper dozens of times. What kind of fate is this?
Complaints are complaints, it's really hard for him to refuse the other party.
He couldn't afford to offend a strong person in the Nascent Soul stage, so he could only obey him and sit down. As for whether he will be depressed, that's not the case. A man can bend and stretch, so what does it matter if he drinks with him.
"This is the top-quality spiritual wine 'Tianxiang Zui' brewed by Fairy Tianxiang of Baye Sect. You can't drink it normally. Try it and see how it tastes?"
"Juniors don't like drinking, just drink by yourself." It's okay to accompany him, just drink. Despite his powerful physique, he has a strong immunity to toxins. However, this woman was very evil, so it was better for him to be more vigilant, lest he fell into her trap unknowingly.
"What, are you afraid that I might poison you?" Seeing how cautious he was, Wei Yurou couldn't help but asked with a half-smile.
"Of course not, I just don't like it." As he said that, Mo Juren already waved his arms, took out the tea set and spiritual tea he brought with him, and started to deal with them.
"Drinking is harmful to your health. If you are interested, senior, you might as well try this. Is this also the favorite of juniors?"
Wei Yurou couldn't help but feel amused. She was a Nascent Soul monk. How could drinking some spiritual wine hurt her body? I'm afraid, I'm afraid, but I'm looking for such a bad excuse.
She didn't take the initiative to reveal it, but instead watched the other party playing with the tea set. As expected of the owner of Tianhua Tower, this spiritual tea is indeed extraordinary, and just the fragrance of the tea that spreads out makes people feel relaxed and happy.
This spiritual tea is naturally not bad. It is produced in the Chaotic Sea of Stars. In addition to its extraordinary effects, the fragrance is also unique. Wei Yurou only took a brief sip before her eyes lit up and she felt fondness in her heart.
"How's the matter with the light-binding jade?"
"Others will have to deal with this matter, so I don't need to worry about it."
"Someone else? It should be Han Zhuo, right?" Wei Yurou's eyes flashed, and then she asked,
"So, you should also know my identity?"
"I understand a little bit." Mo Juren didn't hide anything and nodded in response.
"So you were so cautious just now because you were worried that I might harm you?" Wei Yurou smiled half-heartedly.
"How could it be? Senior, you've thought too much." Mo Juren smiled sarcastically, but would never admit it.
"Duplicity." Wei Yurou rolled her eyes at the other party, fumbled with the tea bowl for a while, and said again,
"Since you know my identity, you should also know that if I intend to take action, even if you are on guard, it will be useless. Moreover, what kind of genius identity do you have, the backing of three Nascent Soul monks behind you, etc. I’m nothing here.”
"What the senior said is absolutely true." The other party had said so, so what could Mo Juren do? He could only show a look of approval. However, his eyes were extremely calm, without any panic.
"You have good courage." Wei Yurou smiled charmingly, but suddenly turned her jade hand over, revealing a delicate wooden box half a foot square. She gently opened the lid of the box, and immediately, a palm-sized gray jade stone emerged.
"This is..." Mo Juren couldn't help but look surprised, but when he saw the latter's white slender fingers tap lightly, the jade stone vibrated slightly for an instant, and the surrounding light seemed to be distorted, restrained and deformed, and finally swallowed up by the jade stone. .
"Light-binding jade!" Seeing this scene, he still didn't understand why it was exactly what he was looking for. However, isn't this jade in the hands of Wei Kunyang, the head of the Wei family? how come?
Suddenly, his expression changed slightly, and he thought of some possibility. He looked up at the other party and asked in a deep voice,
"Senior, what does this mean?"
