The Cultivator's partner went off track all the way

Chapter 152
To Tang Yue's surprise, [-] casual cultivators and [-] disciples are going to the Sunset Forest this time. This task is to test the disciples and collect Sunset Dusk Sand. It is said that they need to be collected for five years at once. portion.The City Lord's Mansion also explained to him that the reason for this operation is that the plague of the Flame Demon is not easy to get rid of, so Xuanyuan Mountain needs to refine some more upgrade pills, so that the disciples can advance as soon as possible and join the battle as soon as possible.

It sounds very high-sounding, but the strange things happen together, so it can't be considered an accident.

The day before departure, Zhao Tianming came to visit Tang Yue suddenly. After exchanging a few pleasantries, he took out something and handed it to Tang Yue. Using this item can quickly transport you back to Xuanjian City, "

Tang Yue took it over and saw that it was a warm topaz with aura lingering on it, at least it was a magic weapon of the earth grade, and it only had one function, which was to send people back to the city at critical times, and it could only be used once, Xuanjian City is too rich .

"City lord, this operation is so dangerous? The fusion stage is also facing life and death, and it needs to be sent back to the city at a critical moment?"

If the matter is so dangerous, why let a thousand monks go?They didn't get the precious jade medal presented by the city lord, wouldn't they all die in the sunset forest?

The city lord laughed, "This is just my personal wish for Fellow Daoist Meng. It is not so dangerous to go to the Sunset Forest. In previous years, hundreds of monks would be sent into the forest to collect sand in batches. Everyone came out safely. Our Xuanjian The city already has a good grasp of the situation in the Sunset Forest, and nothing will happen."

"So that's the case. Thank you, the city lord, for your concern. I will return safely this time and take good care of your daughter."

The face of the city lord changed slightly, "Aoxue has caused a lot of trouble to Fellow Daoist Meng recently, please forgive me, Fellow Daoist Meng."

Tang Yue waved her hand, "What I said was sincere, not a threat. The city lord has treated me so well, so of course I want to repay you."

The city lord heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed that she had no other intentions. She declined and said, "This operation is a trial opportunity. Let Aoxue work hard on her own. She deserves whatever results she gets. Cultivator Meng doesn't have to. Take care of her."

"The city lord is really high-spirited, and he thinks deeply about his daughter, which I admire."

What followed was a chat. It was getting late, and it was not easy for the city lord to stay for a long time, which would easily lead to gossip.

"It's really strange. First he gave me a quick teleportation talisman, but he didn't let me follow his daughter. It seems that this operation is more ominous." She called Meng Furong, hoping that the other party could discuss the situation with herself.

"He really cared about you, counted you as an exception, and didn't want you to die in this operation." Meng Furong teased her.

"He's the one who cares about you. I'm using your appearance now. I don't have such great charm myself. Seriously, why does Xuanjian City let so many monks into the woods?"

"Do you still remember that Kong Yingzong had a fire phoenix ghost? Its forehead pattern is different from that of ordinary phoenixes. It is a round of setting sun, which is the mark that only fire phoenixes born from the setting sun will have."

"Is there a phoenix inhabiting the sunset forest?"

"The setting sun forest is on the edge of the space distortion, and occasionally a few setting sun fire phoenixes will be born from the space over there."

In this way, it makes sense that Kong Yingzong got the phoenix from Sunset Forest.

"So, the city lord recruited us to feed the phoenix, but why did he help Kong Yingzong make evil spirits?"

"I don't know about it, I will know when the time comes."

Tang Yue was very emotional, "Among the decent monks, there are indeed many hypocrites with good looks. The Lord Zhao always looks like he takes the world as his own responsibility, but secretly colludes with such evil ways as Kong Yingzong."

"You're right. The villains are often not the ones who do evil things outright, but those who use the name of justice to do sinister things. Such people are even more terrifying and hard to guard against."

The two criticized for a while, but they didn't expect that the two fit monks would visit her in the middle of the night, and even used the trick of hiding their whereabouts.

Tang Yue let them in and asked, "I don't know what is the important thing for you two to visit late at night?"

Wu Pengcheng said, "We don't want to disturb Fellow Daoist Meng late at night, but thinking about what will happen in Sunset Forest tomorrow, I feel really uneasy, and I also heard that the city lord is visiting you tonight, so I want to ask you what the city lord explained. I hope Fellow Daoist Meng can kindly tell us about it."

Zhan Yuan also said, "Don't worry, fellow Daoist Meng, I used the sect's secret method, even the elders of Xuanjian City's city guard would not be able to detect that the two of us came here."

Tang Yue nodded, "I believe in Brother Zhan Dao's ability. The two of you also feel that the mission of Sunset Forest is strange, so why don't you come to ask?"

Seeing that Tang Yue wanted to inform, Wu Pengcheng hurriedly replied: "Exactly, we came here because Xuanjian City paid a lot of money. We thought they would only accept more than 100 people, but we didn't expect that there were 500 people. The fact is unusual, and I don't believe in the need for a large number of upgrade pills because of demon removal."

Zhan Yuan added, "The Flame Demon King is difficult to deal with. Xuanyuan Mountain can unite with the other two factions. There is no need to forcibly improve the cultivation base of so many monks. Not everyone is suitable for upgrading with the promotion pill. Using too many pills will be harmful to the future." It's not good for your practice."

"The analysis of the two is reasonable. The city lord came to me today and gave me an object. When I was in danger, I could use this object to quickly teleport back to Xuanjian City. I am also curious about what will happen to the sunset forest. The danger is that I, a monk in the integration period, will need to use the magic weapon of returning to the city quickly."

The two male cultivators on the opposite side were silent for a while, thinking that the city lord probably couldn't bear to part with this woman, so he sent such a magic weapon for returning to the city.Doesn't that mean that everyone else is doomed to die?
Sweat dripped from Wu Pengcheng's head, "This matter is so dangerous, it's all because we two are greedy for the generous salary."

Tang Yue was curious, "The two of you should be able to leave here directly. We haven't written any contract, so there shouldn't be any consequences if we leave."

Zhan Yuandao: "It's too late. We found that there were eight fit monks and two hole monks who went with us. They have been patrolling the courtyard tonight, obviously to prevent us from escaping. The palace also opened a protective formation , don't come in and out, my concealment method can't deceive such a heavenly top-ranking formation."

Tang Yue raised her eyebrows, the city lord was so thoughtful, he had already expected that someone would run away, and opened the palace formation in advance.

"Then, how will the disciple of the City Lord's Mansion and her daughter escape from such a disaster?"

Wu Pengcheng said: "We roughly scanned the monks who participated in the sunset forest test today, only the daughter of the city lord, and two or three direct disciples were among them, and the rest of them were all collateral, presumably they were the same as Fellow Daoist Meng , got a special teleportation card from the city lord, staying here is for our peace of mind."

"Since this is the case, tomorrow the two fellow daoists can follow Zhao Aoxue and other direct descendants to see how they react when they are in trouble."

"That's the only way to go now."

In the end, the three of them exchanged the secret method of sound transmission to facilitate communication in the forest, and thought of many countermeasures. All they had to do was to enter the unknown trap of the next day.

Tang Yue thought, maybe this time he could join forces with these two monks to deal with Kong Yingzong, so he told them about Kong Yingzong's evil methods.

The two people on the opposite side were silent for a while, and Wu Pengcheng said, "If Xuanjian City really uses people like us as sacrifices, then the city lord will definitely make a mess of this situation in order to prevent the living from leaving and expose his crimes in front of the world. seamless."

Zhan Yuan also said: "He will make this an accident."
