Chapter 480 Arrangement
"Connection? What does that mean? Does she have a clone here? Why do people like to have a clone?" Li Chuan asked.

The little mouse said: "It may not be a clone. It could be a mark that represents her, an object that is deeply connected to her, or... or a ruins."

"The ruins of the demon clan?" Li Chuan thought of this immediately.

"I don't know." The little mouse slurped the last piece of noodle and said, "Li Chuan, I feel like there's danger approaching."

"Where?" Li Chuan asked immediately, holding the Tianyin pot in his hand.

"Not now. But, in the very near future," said the little mouse.

"Please explain it clearly." Li Chuan took back the Tianyin pot.

After being frightened like this, he sobered up a little and his head started to throb.

The little mouse said, "Let's hide for a while and come out after the danger is over."

"Where can you hide? How long can you hide?" Li Chuan asked.

The little mouse closed his eyes, as if thinking. After a while, he opened his eyes and said, "Let's go west. It will be safer there. We can hide there for at least a hundred years."

"Forget it, there's no way to avoid it. Forget it. I'll be nothing but bones in a hundred years, and I'm still thinking about building a career and starting a family." Li Chuan tapped the little mouse on the head, picked it up, went back to the room, lay down again, and said, "The stewed pig's trotters we had today were pretty good. Let's go tomorrow and order a special pot for you."

Half of the mouse's body had disappeared. After hearing Li Chuan's words, it reappeared and asked, "Really?"

"Really, really." Li Chuan closed his eyes and said, "Go to sleep."

Silent all night.

In the next few days, Li Chuan lived a leisurely life.

He took the little mouse around to eat and drink, or to eat and drink with Zou Jingping and Yang Shan; he memorized Ming Heng's notes, and after verifying that they were indeed useful, he was not so easily sleepy when memorizing them; he continued to practice sword, but in addition to reviewing the moves that were supposed to be taught, he also figured out a few moves according to his own feelings.

He also took some time to study what Soul Eater had left for him. He no longer cared whether he could understand it or not. He would just read more and remember more. Maybe he would understand it by some chance in the future. Even if he didn't understand it, he could still use it.

He is so experienced.

On the fifth day, Wen Guying and Yao Shuang came back.

At that time, Li Chuan was practicing his own moves in the yard. When he turned his head, he saw Wen Guying and Yao Shuang falling from mid-air.

Li Chuan put away his sword, feeling a little embarrassed.

Wen Guying said, "Those two moves are good. They use simplicity to control complexity, and they imply the true meaning of simplicity being the ultimate truth."

"I just waved it a few times." Li Chuan said. He asked: "How is it? What did the three masters say?"

Wen Guying said: "Senior Sister Yao and I informed the three sect leaders of everything we encountered in Qingtan County. Afterwards, the three sect leaders verified and deduced based on the information. At the same time, they also found things related to the gods and demons, as well as other related things from the collections of the three sects, and sorted out and speculated on what happened in the past 30,000 years."

"Have you reached a conclusion?" Li Chuan asked.

"There are some. I'll tell you in detail later." Wen Guying said. He looked Li Chuan up and down and said, "You look good. I was worried that you wouldn't be able to go to Qinling with us."

"Well, it's okay. Maybe my body has gotten used to it." Li Chuan said, and then he said: "By the way, Master Wen, have you received the news that Lanshan Pavilion has been taken down?"

"I heard that Gong Wuguang is still in the Four Gods Palace. He told me." Wen Guying said. "Is the Supervisor here too?" Li Chuan was curious.

"Yes, he knows the most about the Soul Devouring matter besides you. And the information about the travel notes of Cao'an Taoist, the disappearance of Xiaguang Sect, and the information he found in Xuanyue Sect all need him to come in order to continue to verify them."

"That's it." Li Chuan said.

"He felt that Lanshan Pavilion's fight was a bit slow and not decisive enough," Wen Guying said.

"In the first fight, couldn't we just knock him down? If he wants to be quick, he can do it himself." Li Chuan complained.

"That's what I said." Wen Guying said.

After chatting for a few more words, they returned to the house. After sitting down, Wen Guying said, "We will go to Qinling Mountains tomorrow."

"What about the nunnery?" Li Chuan asked.

Wen Guying said, "Elder Mi Jing will bring people here to ensure that no one can get in again."

"Don't you want to go in?" Li Chuan asked.

Wen Guying shook his head and said, "We won't go in for now." He explained, "Master Chu thinks we should organize people to conduct a thorough investigation. Master Wang holds the same opinion, but Gong Wuguang feels that the spire has been buried underground for 30,000 years. It is still unknown how big the area is and whether there are other entrances, so we should not act rashly."

"The old palace master thinks it's right to be cautious. So the final result of the discussion was to let Elder Mi bring some people here first to guard the place while figuring out its range. After the range is determined, we can then conduct exploration."

"Is Elder Mi here? Where is he?" Li Chuan asked.

"He's already in the nunnery." Wen Guying said, and asked, "Why, are you looking for him?"

"Not really, I just thought since I'm here, I might as well meet him." Li Chuan asked again with some surprise: "Is it the old Palace Master who is more conservative this time?"

"We have to go back in eventually." Wen Guying said, "Si Shen Palace has taken over this matter, so the task of hunting down the remaining clones of the demon spirit will mainly be done by Tian Yu Sect. Sect Leader Wang also thinks that the demon spirit will find a chance to meet the half-demon woman, so he also made arrangements in Gui Yin Cave."

"And on Xuanyue Sect's side, Sect Leader Chu promised to give me an explanation about Xiao Hong. Therefore, Xuanyue Sect will investigate from Xiao Hong's line down."

"In addition to these, the currently known demon ruins, including the Wochi and Cangwu Wilderness, and the Divine Hero Temple, will always be secretly guarded by monks."

"Is anyone investigating the matter of the Divine Hero's disciples?" Li Chuan asked.

"There are no arrangements for now." Wen Guying said.

"Then do other sects want to send people?" Li Chuan asked.

"It seems like a lot of noise, but in fact everything is done in secret," Wen Guying explained, "Some sects may have noticed something. They all have their own information channels. Some of the information we want to know may be in their hands. However, this matter should not be publicized to avoid being noticed by some beings."

Wen Guying added: "Those sects will also take the initiative to exchange information with us. Take your time, there is no need to rush."

"I understand." Li Chuan asked again: "We are going to Qinling Mountains tomorrow. What preparations should I make?"

"No need, just let it go." Wen Guying said.
