Evergreen Immortal..

Chapter 506 Duobao Taoist (fourth update, please give me a monthly ticket!)

"Someone dared to break into the dark prison, not to save people, but just to kill people?"

This day.

Li Rui was chatting with the Minister of Justice when he got the news.

He just found it extremely strange.

The Black Prison was where the State of Yu imprisoned serious criminals.

Among them are either high-ranking officials in the court who have committed serious crimes. Ordinary third-rank officials are not eligible, and the lowest must be second-rank officials. There is even a first-rank official imprisoned. In addition to officials, there are also powerful people who have committed crimes, and their realm is at least celestial.

So you can imagine how strict the security was.

Not only was it being watched by many powerful men in the capital, but it was also a large formation in itself that could not be easily broken even by a first-grade warrior.

For many years, everything has been calm and peaceful, but no one expected that someone would dare to enter such a dangerous place and cause such a turmoil.

And what's even weirder is...

The man sneaked into the dark cell not to save people, but to kill people.

Killing someone is almost the same as being dead.

Li Rui looked at Minister Yan of the Ministry of Justice, who seemed a bit old-fashioned and harsh, but was actually quite generous.

"Can that person be captured?"

he asked curiously.

Minister Yan shook his head and said, "It was done by a talisman cultivator. Lord Li also knows that these immortal cultivators have strange methods, and this talisman cultivator is even harder to guard against."

Li Rui: “Indeed.”

It's like a city wall.

It can only stop most people, but how can it stop ants?

Those talisman cultivators are harder to defend against than ants.

of course.

To be able to sneak into the black prison, his cultivation level must be very high.

Li Rui couldn't help but wonder: "Master Yan, who does that person want to kill?"

Minister Yan laughed and said, "The Black Prison is not under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Justice. I just heard some rumors. Speaking of which, that person should be familiar to Lord Li Rui. He is the Palace Master of the Purple Gold Palace that has been destroyed."

"Si Feng!"

Li Rui raised his eyebrows.

The person who was assassinated was actually Si Feng.

Speaking of which, his connection with Si Feng is indeed very deep. He was the first person to witness Si Feng's descent to the mortal world. Later, when the Zijin Palace was destroyed, Gu Changsheng joined forces with Qingwei Sect's Great True Man Qingding to suppress Si Feng in a dark prison.

Over the years, the North Pole Demon Sect, which is of the same lineage as the Purple Gold Palace, has been providing rescue services in secret.

I didn't expect that there would be another assassination attempt now.

Si Feng's luck is really amazing.

Li Rui smiled and shook his head.

"By the way, Master Yan, I'd like to trouble you to take care of my apprentice."

"Easy to say, easy to say."

Minister Yan agreed readily.

Today, Li Rui came to Yan Mansion, of course not just for casual chatting.

But it was for Liu Tong.

To be precise, it is Chunfengtang.

If Chunfengtang wants to do business in the capital, in addition to taking care of the governor of Kyoto, the Ministry of Justice is the top priority.

The Ministry of Justice is inferior to the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of Revenue, and the Ministry of War in terms of power, and even has its own advantages and disadvantages compared with the Ministry of Works.

But for traveling merchants.

The Ministry of Justice is the largest government office.

If those officials in the Ministry of Justice randomly accuse you of committing a crime, not only will you not be able to make money, you may even end up in a miserable situation with your family broken up.

Chunfengtang’s business can grow bigger.

Naturally, Li Rui's protection is indispensable.

The so-called shelter does not mean supporting someone when something goes wrong. That is a very bad idea and not a long-term solution.

He prefers to do things quietly.

We finalized the matter while drinking tea.

As the Taiping Order, except for a very few people, everyone else has to give him some face.

I have him as my backer.

Naturally, Chunfengtang’s business cannot be bad.

With his current position, he knows a lot more than before, for example, the owner behind Tianyuan Chamber of Commerce is Marquis Dingyuan, and the owner behind Jufu Pavilion is Lord Ma of the cabinet.

All of them are top figures in the court.

It is not excessive at all for Li Rui to maintain a Chunfengtang.

After coming out of Yan Mansion.

Li Rui did not return to his residence in Jishuitan, but went straight out of the city.

After being several miles away from the city gate.

He then sacrificed a small boat.

But the boat today is very different from the previous one.

Who says that cultivators don’t know how to enjoy themselves?
This flying magic weapon bought from Situ Lian is not only much more spacious than before, but more importantly, there is a cabin with a radius of ten feet on the boat, which is fully furnished and is like a small flying cave.

The boat instantly flew thousands of feet into the sky. Li Rui sat cross-legged in the cabin, meditating with his eyes closed.

"How strange! I didn't reveal any flaws. Did I open my third eye?"

A corner of the jungle.

In a cave.

Wu De was very puzzled.

What he held in his hand was a copy of the public notice of the Yu State court. The largest section in the copy was about something called "The World's Martial Arts Review".

It is rare that this world martial arts evaluation can rank the world's martial artists and immortal cultivators.

But what he didn't expect was

He showed up very seldom, but the martial arts reviews described his skills and background in great detail.

How could he not be surprised?

"Could it be that I, the Taoist priest, have been targeted by someone?"

Just as Wu De was thinking.

Suddenly, a figure appeared at the entrance of the cave.

Wu De first blinked.

Immediately afterwards, my hair stood on end.

You know, he has always been a cautious person, so this cave seems ordinary, but in fact he has already set up various formations in it.

But this extra person in the cave was able to pass through his formation silently.

How could he not be surprised?

"Bitter!"

Wu De secretly groaned in his heart, and didn't even go to check on the man's situation. He directly used his secret method to escape from here first.

But the thought had just arisen in his mind.

A green light curtain enveloped him.

Wu De's eyes widened.

"Qingxuan Daoyun!"

“Purple Mansion Realm!”

For a moment, his mood hit rock bottom.

He could see that the man was clearly displaying the power of the Great Dao, a method that only cultivators in the Purple Mansion Realm could possess.

A cultivator in the Purple Mansion Realm is not someone he can deal with.

But the next moment.

Wu De showed a flattering smile on his face: "Senior Zhu, why are you here too?"

Li Rui looked at Wu De, whose expression changed, and walked into the cave with his hands behind his back, smiling:
"Fellow Daoist Wu, I didn't expect that we would meet again."

Wu De quickly shook his head: "Senior, just call me Xiao Wu."

Li Rui was speechless.

There are not many people who are so aware of the current situation.

He looked at Wu De, but the next sentence froze the smile on Wu De's face: "It is said that Daoist Fellow Dilongzi has a seven-aperture mind, it seems to be true."

Wu De was embarrassed when he was exposed:

"Fellow Daoist Zhu, you won't believe it even if I tell you. I didn't mean to lie to you."

Li Rui still had a smile on his face.

According to the definition in his previous life, he and Wu De were netizens.

This is our first offline meeting.

Wu De obviously thought he was an immortal cultivator who had descended to the mortal world with him.

As for the earth dragon.
Among the immortal cultivators who came down to the world this time, many of them came from the Shenxuan Palace.

Based on his relationship with the Qingwei Sect.

It is not difficult to obtain some information about Shenxuan Palace.

There is no disciple named Wu De in the Shenxuan Palace at all, but in Luoxiazhou where the Shenxuan Sect is located, there is a "tomb robber" who is similar to Wu De, but he has only one Taoist name, Dilongzi.

As for the reviews
The disciples of Shenxuan Palace were so angry that they wanted to tear out the tendons and skin this earth dragon who called himself Duobao Taoist.

It is said that this fat Taoist priest had trapped many people from the Shenxuan Sect in the Taoist ruins.

Wu De was surprised.

In fact, he had been secretly investigating the background of this fellow Daoist Zhu in front of him, but he never expected that he still knew nothing about the other party's situation, while the other party knew almost everything about his own situation.

After Li Rui revealed his identity, Wu De smiled flatteringly again:

"Senior, I, Wu De, swear to heaven that Wu De is my real name."

"I am born with great luck and I am loved by my elders. They often like to give me small gifts, and I would be remiss not to accept them, right?"

The corner of Li Rui's mouth twitched.

What a great connection with the elders.

However, the elders Wu De mentioned might have passed away long ago, and those little things were the relics and treasures left by the Taoist Master.

Wu De looked at Li Rui.

I know that if I don't bleed today, I won't be able to leave safely.
He gritted his teeth:

"Senior, I suspect that there is an incredible tomb hidden in this small cave."
