Journey to the head

Lu Qian was shocked!

Then there were whooshing sounds, and the Yuanyings and Jindans standing on both sides of the hall had gleaming lights in their hands. One golden rope after another shot out, and where each thin rope passed by, there were densely packed flower, bird and seal characters, woven into a huge golden net, which covered Lu Qian's head.

At this moment, thousands of thoughts flashed through Lu Qian's mind. He looked at the Yuanshen Xuanjun and did not resist. He stood there and let the golden net bind his body.

His spiritual power is still severely depleted. Not only can he not use "Mirror Flower and Water Moon", but even if he uses it in this space-locked cave, it will be of no use. It is even more impossible for him to use the golden branch here.

The only means he could use to fight back were the formation diagram and spirit crystal in his arms. But why should he humiliate himself in front of a Xuan Jun and many Nascent Souls and Golden Cores on both sides?
As soon as the golden net touched the body, there was a piercing pain!

Lu Qian groaned, and the severe pain made him stagger and almost fall to the ground.

The golden ropes shrank into golden threads, which were tightly tied into his flesh. In just a moment, countless bloodstains appeared all over his body. Just when Lu Qian thought he was going to be strangled to death, his flesh burst open and blood gushed out. The golden threads turned invisible as soon as they met the blood.

Before Lu Qian could react, the golden thread had already merged into his meridians, tightening all the acupoints in his body!
The pain this time was a hundred times greater than before, and his spiritual power was completely gone in an instant, like that of an ordinary person. Lu Qian could not help but scream out in pain, and suddenly he could no longer stand and collapsed to the ground.

"Where is Master Heming? He told me to wait here and he will be back to pick me up soon." Lu Qian took a few deep breaths, trying hard to endure the pain that pierced his bone marrow. Strands of blood were oozing out from the wounds all over his body.

Yuanshen Xuanjun was stunned for a moment. This kid is a smart guy. Not only did he not resist indifferently, but he immediately threatened Heming Zhenjun. However, what is needed now is a smart person.

He stretched out his hand and caught Lu Qian in his palm, then pulled Lu Qian up by the collar. Lu Qian groaned again, and his clothes were soaked with blood.

It's really embarrassing. However, these are just superficial injuries. Now I have to find a way to get out of this situation.

"You can't wait for Master Heming. I will interrogate you next. If you don't want to die here, just cooperate obediently." Master Xuan said nonchalantly.

Lu Qian stared into his eyes and said, "Is this how Taiyi Paradise treats guests? You could have been more polite to me. If something really happened to me, you wouldn't be able to explain yourself, right?"

In an instant, the spiritual pressure on Xuanjun's body surged, and the undisguised murderous intent had enveloped Lu Qian tightly.

"You are an ant-like lower realm Jindan. You have committed a serious crime, yet you dare to be so presumptuous. I can crush you to death right now."

He exerted force lightly in his hand, and Lu Qian felt a sharp pain in his chest and abdomen. There was no doubt that one of his ribs had been broken.

Lu Qian coughed up a mouthful of blood, but remained unafraid.

"It is because of the serious crime and the serious consequences that even Master Heming is unable to make a decision. He has to report to the Council of Elders for a decision after questioning."

"I even feel that, given my connections, I will be meeting your elders soon, and it will be my turn to speak. It doesn't look good to be in this state, don't you think?"

The pupils of the soul flickered slightly, and its hand loosened. Lu Qian fell to the ground weakly and coughed up blood again.

This Lu Qian is definitely not an ordinary person!

Zhenjun Qionggao said that this person played an important role in this arrest operation, and said that he was actually the master of the Sixth Heavenly Lord's minions. He was indeed not a simple person. No wonder the master would come up with this move.

Yuanshen Xuanjun picked up Lu Qian again, roughly pried open Lu Qian's mouth, took out a green, fragrant pill, and put it back.

He sneered: "You think you are very smart, right? Then I hope you are really that smart and can make the right choice later."

"Before you go to the elders' meeting, I will naturally treat your injuries and arrange for you to bathe and change clothes."

"As for now, you need a little pain to stay awake, so that you know who is in control."

His fingers pressed heavily on Lu Qian's chest and abdomen, and a heart-wrenching pain came from the broken ribs! Lu Qian clenched his teeth, stared at him, and let out a roar from his throat.

"Ha, I am honored to have you here. May I ask your name, Lord Xuan?"

The soul pulled Lu Qian, and in a flash it left the hall and headed towards somewhere on the floating island.

Lu Qian endured the severe pain and memorized the routes on both sides firmly in his mind. That Xuanjun suddenly smiled contemptuously.

"Don't bother yourself. What's the point of remembering it? If you don't cooperate, you'll never be able to leave this place."

"By the way, my Taoist name is Chang Qing Zi. I like dealing with smart people the most because it's easier that way. But I also hate dealing with smart people because you always think you're smart."

In the time it took to say these two sentences, he had already pulled Lu Qian into the tunnel. After turning left and right in the pitch-black environment, they finally arrived at a stone chamber.

Chang Qingzi threw Lu Qian heavily to the cold ground, and blood splattered everywhere.

"Then, let's get started."

"Tell me in detail what happened after Master Heming came."

His palm shook slightly, and Lu Qian suddenly felt a black screen before his eyes - the golden thread was tightening inside his body, like thousands of needles piercing his body, it was so painful!

"Remember, I only want to hear what Master Heming has to say about this matter. You'd better speak quickly and stop talking nonsense. Don't try to delay time. Otherwise, before Master Heming finds this place, your meridians will be destroyed."

At this moment, Miaomiao Xuanjun, Qiancheng Lingjun and Chiyu Zhenren were being questioned separately. It was Yuanshen Xuanjun who asked them various questions, but they were sitting upright on their chairs with a cup of fairy tea in front of them, and the atmosphere of the conversation was relaxed and pleasant.

The three people were asked similar questions, which were nothing more than recalling the entire war from different angles, from the time when the Chongming Alliance withdrew from the arena competition to the time when Tan Yunxing and others escaped into the Chaixin world, recording every detail.

Finally, Yuanshen Xuanjun, who was in charge of the inquiries, changed to a very serious tone and warned them not to spread the secret of the spiritual vein.

"This matter involves a wide range of issues, and has many causes and consequences. Although you have had the opportunity to glimpse a little, this matter is far beyond the realm you can discuss."

"We will continue to monitor. If we find any rumors leaking out one day, we will definitely hold you accountable!"

Miao Miao Xuan Jun nodded: "Such a major secret, I will naturally not keep it, please rest assured Immortal Sect. Besides, even if I tell others, it will only be regarded as a strange anecdote by ordinary cultivators. I will never do such a meaningless thing."

Yuanshen Xuanjun, who was in charge of questioning him, was polite to this fellow Taoist of the same realm, the lord of a state below. The two of them chatted for a few words and then ended the questioning.

"Excuse me, envoy." Miaomiao Xuanjun asked hurriedly, "After this matter is over, I wonder what will be done with my Cangzhou?"

The Xuanjun was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Friend Miaomiao, don't worry. To be honest, if it was because of a rebellion in your state or a war between states that caused such a huge loss of cultivators, and you still asked for help with the immortal scroll, my sect would probably really charge you with a serious crime of not governing your subordinates strictly, having no way of governing, and being mediocre." "But now, several Zhenjuns have confirmed that this matter is related to the Tianjun, and it is the Sixth Tianjun who is the mastermind behind it. No matter what, Cangzhou and Xuanwei Sect have paid a huge price to resist the Sixth Tianjun's minions and thwart the Sixth Tianjun's conspiracy, and they should be rewarded."

"Of course, I am only responsible for inquiries, and my words do not count. What will happen in the end will depend on the summary of all the information and the final decision of the Elders Council."

Miaomiao Xuanjun heaved a sigh of relief, and when he heard the word "reward", he couldn't help but feel a little warm in his heart.

Cangzhou and the four gates of Cangzhou have suffered unbearable losses. If Taiyi Paradise can reward them, it will definitely greatly speed up the recovery of the four gates.

After this incident, Cangzhou was left extremely empty. I was afraid that Qingzhou would take advantage of the situation and we had to find a way to deal with it.
"May I ask, Your Excellency, do I have a chance to meet the Immortal Sect's elders?"

Miaomiao Xuanjun had a look of anticipation on his face, but his soul shook his head.

"Just leave a statement. Among the people brought by Master Heming, only Lu Qian is of great importance and will be received by the Council of Elders."

Miao Miao Xuan Jun was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "Then I wonder, in a situation like ours, what kind of reward can we get in general?"

The Yuanshen Xuanjun hesitated for a moment, but still shook his head.

"Your sect's situation is quite special."

"To be honest, in the past hundred years, the land has become increasingly unstable, and there are more and more signs of activities by the Heavenly Sovereigns and True Immortals. There have been three cases involving the Ten Heavenly Sovereigns that were eventually monitored by my forces or reported to my forces in the past hundred years on Yuheng Continent."

Miao Miao Xuan Jun's eyes widened. He didn't expect to hear such a secret. He couldn't help but concentrate. But he was not qualified to know anything related to Tian Jun. He was afraid that the more he knew, the more trouble he would get into.

Seeing that he wanted to listen but didn't dare to, the soul smiled and shook his head.

"That's not necessary. This is not a secret. You are just far away from the state where the incident happened so you haven't heard about it."

"Because these things cannot be covered up at all." His expression became serious.

"In the other two incidents, the Yuanshen Sects responsible for guarding a state were destroyed, and the Yuanshen Xuanjun died!"

Miao Miao Xuan Jun was horrified, and then he heard him say: "If it involves the 'Ten Heavenly Lords', how can a small Yuanshen Sect handle it?"

"That's why I said your situation is special. You actually survived the tricks and schemes of the Heavenly Monarch. This is really unbelievable. So what kind of reward you will receive, I can't say."

"Oh, right, should I say three and a half? In Dengzhou, which is not too far from you, a Jedi rebellion also occurred several decades ago, and it is speculated that it is also related to the Heavenly Monarch. However, the incident was suppressed by the local Yuanshen Sect as soon as it started, and no conclusion has been reached yet."

Miaomiao Xuanjun didn't pay much attention to the second half of his words. What he said before kept circling in his mind. The sects involved in the other two incidents had been destroyed and Yuanshen Xuanjun had fallen.

The scene of Lu Qian teleporting seemed to appear before his eyes again. He took the immortal scroll from his hand and raised it high to the sky with the last hope of tens of thousands of cultivators.

In front of the True Lord, Lu Qian made an impassioned speech, each word of which was powerful and resounding, which turned the situation around and destroyed the forbidden sect's plan to take over Cangzhou.

At that time, Master Heming had already received a message from the Elders' Council, asking him to give up Cangzhou!
But why is it that Lu Qian, the great hero who saved Cangzhou and the four gates, is the former master of the culprit Tan Yunxing?

Even if Lu Qian explained clearly that Tan Yunxing had already defected from the sect, the bottom line was, if there was no Yunshan Sect and no Lu Qian, there would be no Tan Yunxing!

So, how should this account be calculated?
Miaomiao Xuanjun closed his eyes and let out a long sigh amid the puzzled gaze of his soul.

Let's see how Taiyi Paradise pronounces its verdict.
In the stone chamber, Lu Qian spoke one sentence and Chang Qingzi recorded it, and soon they went over the words and deeds of Master Heming in this matter.

After listening to this, Chang Qingzi said in a cold voice: "You said that you deduced that the Sixth Heavenly Lord, the Great Black Ming King, the Heavenly Lord of Desire, was behind the Forbidden Religion?"

Lu Qian nodded. Chang Qingzi swung out a palm and slapped Lu Qian hard into the air!
"You still say you are innocent? How did you, a lowly Jindan from the lower world, know the secrets of the Heavenly Sovereign? I think you have been in contact with your disciple Tan Yunxing and knew his identity long ago."

"I just don't know what kind of conflict happened between you, so that you finally chose to betray him and betray him for fame and fortune."

Lu Qian fell to the ground, spit out a mouthful of blood, and dropped his eyes.

He couldn't let Chang Qingzi see the boundless anger in his eyes.

I need to find an opportunity. But now, I can only endure it.
"Forget it. I am too lazy to care about these things." Chang Qingzi waved his hand. "You just need to know that the sin of your incompetent teaching and poisoning thousands of miles is enough to kill you directly. If you want to live, cooperate well."

He threw a piece of letter in front of Lu Qian: "Read it carefully. When you go to the elders' meeting, you will follow the instructions above."

Lu Qian took a few glances with difficulty and was immediately shocked.

This letter has tampered with the objective situation I just described to a certain extent.

After this tampering, the core of this passage is that Heming Zhenjun was arrogant, did not listen to good advice, acted improperly, and was unable to respond well, which led to the successful escape of Tan Yunxing and others, and the capture operation of the Sixth Heavenly Lord's minions ultimately failed! Heming Zhenjun should be held directly accountable!

Lu Qian's eyes narrowed. So that's what happened. They arrested me and asked me to cooperate in order to frame Master Heming? !

Who are they and what is their purpose?
"See clearly now. Listen carefully." Chang Qingzi said in a cold voice, "As long as you agree and swear a Daoist oath, my master and I will naturally help you get rid of the crime and let you leave this place unscathed. You can even be rewarded handsomely for proving the merit of the Sixth Heavenly Sovereign's minions!"

"But if you don't agree, or if you are willing to break your oath and do something, I can't kill you now. But..."

"Can you run away? Even if you can, where can your Yunshan Sect run to?"

"I heard you're some kind of leader, right? I'll destroy your little sect without any effort."

"All the people and things you cherish will be in a very miserable state. I promise that death may be the most merciful ending for them."

Then, he saw the little Jindan, who had been lying on the ground without moving, suddenly raised his head. Between his eyes was a blazing rage that was about to swallow everything, and an icy murderous intent that could no longer be concealed.

Chang Qingzi subconsciously took a step back, then suddenly reacted, became angry and slapped Lu Qian away again.

"Who the hell do you think you are to look at me like that?!"

"Choose, you only have these two choices!" (End of this chapter)
