After Ao Hong's question, everyone's eyes involuntarily fell on Cangyue, but everyone had a blank expression and no attitude could be seen.

Cang Yue didn't care about the gazes falling on him. He bowed to Ao Hong and said, "May I ask who the Seventh Prince is asking this on behalf of?"

Upon hearing this, Ao Hong looked towards Yuxing Mansion Lord in the distance. Yuxing Mansion Lord didn't seem to have any intention of coming up to ask questions. She had a cold expression and seemed to have no interest in anything in this world. She had just tried to stop Cangyue out of responsibility, but now that she had gotten rid of the responsibility, she had lost interest in Cangyue.

However, she was also listening quietly, and judging from her attitude, it seemed that she was just performing her duty.

"We are questioning you on behalf of the Dao Palace, and then we will hold you accountable according to the Dao Palace regulations based on the mistakes you have made." Ao Hong said this without a single mistake.

At this time, Bu Qiong emerged from the shadows under the clouds next to her and stared at Cangyue with a puzzled look.

Liuyun Mansion Lord, who had roughly repaired the Yuqing Sect's headquarters, also flew over and looked at Yuxing Mansion Lord who was not very sociable and said, "Daoyou, why don't you invite me to your temple and sit for a while?"

No matter what, the people present were all cultivators of the fourth realm, and it was indeed inappropriate to interrogate Cangyue in public.

"Come with me!"

The voice left by Lord Yuxing was still spreading, but the man had already flown towards a mountain west of Haicheng.

Lord Liuyun ignored Cangyue who was surrounded by Ao Hong, Bu Qiong and Cangji. Seeing this, he immediately followed Yuxing and flew westward. Ao Hong made an inviting gesture to Cangyue and said, "Please, fellow Taoist, but don't force us to do it, or you will regret it."

"There's no need to go through so much trouble. I'll answer whatever you ask until you're satisfied. In the end, you'll definitely sentence me to permanent service on the front line, right?"

"So, you don't feel that you have done anything wrong, and you are not worried about anything, because your Taoist Palace will not easily take the life of a fourth-level cultivator!" Bu Qiong's tone was cold.

Cang Ji watched coldly, perhaps in his heart he hoped that Cang Yue would escape, so that he could kill him openly and get a place in the fourth realm.

Cangyue was not angry because of Bu Qiong's words. He bowed his hands obediently, indicating that he could follow the arrangements of the Taoist Palace.

...

The Taoist temple of Lord Yuxing was built on the hillside of a steep mountain, guarded by a series of terraced palaces that spread straight up the mountain. The palace on the top floor was the most magnificent, and there were rows of mountain stream corridors between the palaces.

Except for the palace on the top floor, other palaces are arranged with complex spirit-gathering arrays. They are connected to each other and seem to form an independent small world, which contains the golden elixir rules that the Yuqing Sect is best at.

The place used to entertain everyone is the magnificent palace on the top floor, which has a nine-meter-high double door.

When you push the door open, you will find that the interior is even more magnificent. It has only one hall. The sky is more than ten feet high and more than thirty feet deep. There is only one cloud bed placed under the portraits of the two saints in the north direction.

When Ao Hong, Cang Ji and Bu Qiong led Cang Yue into the hall, Yuxing Mansion Lord was already sitting cross-legged on the cloud bed. She said coldly, "I don't have any tea or fresh fruit here, please help yourself."

There was a moment of silence, and finally Bu Qiong broke the silence and said, "Business matters are more important!" She looked at Cang Yue and said, "Answer Daoist Ao Hong's question just now. Why did you attack Yuqing Sect?"

Cang Yue cupped his hands and responded, "Take back what belongs to my Tai Yin Sect."

"Oh?"

"My master was besieged by the three Lords of Yuqing Sect. They used a secret method to destroy my master's soul, and his body has been suppressed at the foot of the Yuqing Sect's mountain. As the core of the Yuqing Sect's Yin-Yang Conversion Formation, I came here this time to retrieve my master's body so that he can rest in peace."

After Cang Yue finished speaking, he clasped his fists towards the sky and said, "I know you have already written the documents to recruit me to the front line, so this is my last chance to comfort my master's spirit in heaven."

Ao Hong's eyes fell on Yuxing Mansion Lord, "You killed his master's soul and suppressed his body at the bottom of the mountain as the center of the formation?"

Judging from the current order of the Taoist Palace, this matter is a bit excessive, at least it does not look good on the surface.

"That happened so long ago that I almost forgot about it."

Taoist Yuxing spoke in a low voice, "Back then, there was no Daozang Hall, nor the so-called Dao Palace, and no one would go to the edge of the starry sky to block the things from outside the domain. After the fall of the Demon King Yaoxi, there was less than 500 years of peace. After that, the various factions attacked each other, and killing and being killed was the most normal thing. At that time, although the fall of the Four Realms was not common, it was not a special thing."

"When the fighting between the various factions was at its fiercest, even the land of Zhongzhou was broken up. Now the islands in the southeastern sea area were separated from the Zhongzhou mainland that was broken up at that time."

"Your master died at that time, I think. I can't remember the details, and I don't want to think about it!"

"But what you said about that being something from the Taiyin Sect is ridiculous!"

When she said this, she looked at Bu Qiong and said, "Hasn't there always been voices within your Star God Alliance over the years, wanting to overthrow the order maintained by the True Lords and return to the past? If you can succeed, I would be more than happy to do so. Anyway, this peaceful world is a bit too boring."

Bu Qiong raised his eyebrows and said sternly: "Fellow Daoist, please don't talk nonsense. The Star God Alliance has been fighting for the stability of this world!"

Yuxing Mansion Lord did not respond to Bu Qiong's defense. It seemed that she was too lazy to respond. She looked at Ao Hong and others and said, "I know what you are planning, but it has nothing to do with me, and I don't want to get involved. So there is no need for us to waste each other's time. You can decide how to deal with Cangyue, and don't pretend to be in front of me."

The embarrassment on Ao Hong's face flashed away, and then he bowed and said, "What are you talking about, fellow Taoist."

Lord Yuxing was really too lazy to pay attention to him.

Cangji then stared at Cangyue and asked, "Where is the master's body?"

"Perhaps it was because he served as the core of the magic circle for too long. When I removed the sealing magic circle, Master's body turned directly into dust!"

"How is it possible? Master is a fourth-level cultivator, and his remains are a Netherworld body!"

"But that's what it is."

Cangyue responded in a calm tone.

Cang Ji was a little anxious. He looked up at Yu Xing on the cloud bed. Yu Xing had a look of no interest on her face. She was not even interested in knowing the Netherworld Body at the core of the magic circle.

Ao Hong interrupted and said, "Since even Daoist Yu Xing did not pursue the matter, we will not ask any more questions. However, since you have committed such a crime, the Dao Palace cannot sit idly by. Originally, the Second Meeting planned to recruit you to serve on the front line for 500 years. In this case, we will give you another 500 years. Are you convinced?"

Upon hearing this, Cang Yue clasped his fists and bowed, saying, "I am convinced!"

After answering, he looked around and asked, "Lord Changqing should be the chief of the Second Meeting. Shouldn't he be the one to announce this? Why isn't Lord Changqing here?"

"You want to see him? Why?"

Bu Qiong asked coldly.

Cang Yue smiled and said, "It is rumored that Lord Changqing is favored by the Heaven, and is extremely noble. He has cultivated to the fourth level in less than 600 years. This is something that you have never heard of when you traveled around the world. Naturally, you want to meet him and get some of his luck."

"Nonsense!" Bu Qiong reminded coldly, "Every cultivator who can cultivate to the fourth level under the watchful eyes of Heaven must have great perseverance. Have you forgotten how you cultivated to the fourth level?"

Upon hearing this, Cang Yue accepted it with an open mind, clasped his fists and said, "Daoyou is absolutely right. I may have lived in vain for so many years."

At this time, Yu Xing on the cloud bed said, "Now that the matter has been resolved, I am going to rest in meditation. Please do as you please!"

...

After everyone left Yuxing Mansion Lord's dojo and discussed for a while, they decided that Bu Qiong and Cang Ji would send Cang Yue to the front line. After Liuyun Mansion Lord and his men left, they asked Ao Hong, "Did Daoist Fellow Changqing really have a problem absorbing extraterritorial energy?"

Ao Hong immediately asked back: "Why do you ask like this, Daoist friend? Do you not trust me, or do you not trust Daoist friend Changqing?"

"You misunderstood, my friend. It's just that the plan for Haizhou Road is about to begin..."

"The matter of Haizhou Road is just a small matter. You can make your own decision, but you must not really let Haizhou Road become chaotic, otherwise it will be embarrassing for you, Daoist Changqing."

"That's fine!"

Lord Liuyun bowed politely and disappeared into the sky the next moment.

Ao Hong looked back in the direction of Haicheng. The disciples of Yuqing Sect had already rebuilt the mountain gate. However, although the mountain gate can be rebuilt, it is not so easy to repair people's hearts.

"Maybe the fun is about to begin..."

What he was thinking about at this moment was the chaos thousands of years ago that Yuxing Mansion Lord had just mentioned. He was also interested in this, but it was just an interest. Otherwise, he would not support it unless it was beneficial to him.

Ao Hong thought for a while, and seeing that Wang Ping didn't seem to have any intention of showing up, he hid his aura and flew towards his own dojo. In a blink of an eye, he appeared above the deep pool.

He took out the communication token that Wang Ping had given him, explained to Wang Ping roughly what had happened in the hall, and then dived into the deep pool without waiting for Wang Ping's reply.

It was impossible for Wang Ping to reply, after all, he was now in the territory of Hushan State.

At this moment, he was in a natural cave in the heart of an unnamed mountain range in the central part of Hushan Country. There were almost no people in this area, only some small demon tribes that were still in a primitive state of life.

He was fiddling with the 'Ghost Body' that he had snatched from Cangyue. He was hiding aside at the time and recognized this thing the first time he saw it. He had no intention of taking it away, but then he suddenly had the idea of ​​taking it away, so he followed the idea that suddenly emerged in his mind.

When he finished reading the message sent by Ao Hong, he naturally fell into deep thought. When Yu Lian asked him about the situation, he told her the truth.

"Cang Yue should have been able to sense the aura of the 'Transfer Talisman' at that time, but he didn't say it out loud. Why?" Yu Lian naturally thought of the key.

"I guess he wants to talk to me!"

"How can we talk? He has a sentence equivalent to a thousand years. The situation will be completely different a thousand years from now!"

“That’s what’s weird about me.”

Wang Ping looked into Yu Lian's eyes and asked, "Do you think Cang Yue knows something secret that might allow him to return to this world earlier?"

"Maybe..."

Yu Lian answered uncertainly, then changed the subject: "If he told the truth at that time, how would you deal with it?"

Wang Ping laughed softly, "I won't admit it. As long as I don't admit it, no one can do anything to me."

"Aren't you afraid that they might be suspicious?"

"It's better for them to be suspicious. It's a good opportunity to see how they react."

"All right…"

Yu Lian did not continue the topic. She stared at the Netherworld body in front of her and asked, "What do you want to do with it? Refine it into a new puppet? Or give it to Tong Yu who is sleeping under Dongshui Mountain? But it seems that it is difficult to get a place in the fourth realm of Taiyin Sect. Even their own disciples are scheming against each other."

Wang Ping was obviously stunned when he heard Yu Lian's words. Only then did he understand why he felt moved when he saw the Netherworld Body just now. It was the memory of Taoist Tongyu in his subconscious mind that was at work. However, Taoist Tongyu's presence was too low, which made his memory a little fuzzy, so he couldn't remember it for a while.

As for refining it into a puppet, Wang Ping does not have such luxury, unless he can upgrade the puppet's power to the fourth level, but this is a hundred times more difficult than Taoist Tongyu's promotion to the fourth level, and he does not know the secret method of Taiyin Sect!
In addition, when Ao Hong heard Cang Yue deliberately mention that Cang Ji had reached the third realm when he was born, he did not pay much attention to it in person, but in fact he kept it firmly in his mind and also specifically mentioned this matter in the message to Wang Ping.

This is indeed a very important matter!

Firstly, the third realm of Taiyin Sect requires deep sleep, which is common knowledge in the cultivation world, and Cangyue’s words broke this common sense; secondly, Cangji was born in the third realm, which means that he possessed a soul and a spiritual body when he was born!

You have to know that among the Dragon King’s many children, there was only one Jiang Cun, and he just had the spirit of a dragon when he was born.

Wang Ping kept this in mind, because it was useless to think about it now. He met Yu Lian's puzzled look and said, "In my current situation, even if Taiyin Sect has an extra seat, it will be difficult for me to plan. However, I can get the admission ticket first. What if the people who got the quota before are all idiots!"

Yu Lian spit out her snake tongue, looked around, and said in the spiritual sea like a thief: "There is another way, that is to go with the flow and overturn the rules set by the True Lords!"

"You would think, don't say this again."

"Just relax, I'm not stupid."

While the two of them were chatting, Wang Ping had already understood most of this Netherworld body. This body was an extremely yin object, and it would autonomously convert the surrounding spiritual energy into Netherworld energy, which had many benefits for the Taiyin cultivators' practice while they were asleep.

There is a secret seal of the Yuqing Sect on the surface of the body, which blocks the invasion of spiritual creatures on the one hand, and guides the Netherworld Air on the other hand, using the property that cathode will reverse before converting the Netherworld Air into the yang energy necessary for the Yuqing Sect to practice thunder magic.

Wang Ping spent several hours to break the secret seal of the Yuqing Sect, and then replaced it with the Wood Spirit Sealing Array, temporarily sealing the body completely, and then slowly studying it later.

It was already the next morning when we finished all this.

Facing the rising sun of Hushan Country, Wang Ping sat in meditation at the entrance of the cave for ten cycles of Qi training. Then he stood up and said to Yu Lian, who was already a little excited, "Let's go to the Gray Water Pond."

"Okay, I'm sure I can beat my mother this time!"

Yu Lian was eager to try.

Wang Ping maintained the state of 'nothingness' and was about to fly towards the Gray Water Pond when Yu Lian stopped him and said, "Wait, I'm going to go to the river below to eat some fresh shrimps first. I'll be better at fighting after I'm full!"
