Cultivation starts from being a ghost

Chapter 525 Storytelling

Qin Chuan didn't know what happened after he left. When he returned to the Ruyang Palace in Longjiang City, Dugu Shou was waiting anxiously, "Fellow Daoist Qin, have you seen the new moon?"

"My lord, let me ask you one thing first, have you leaked my relationship with Master?"

"You mean...Master Xia?" Dugu Shou asked uncertainly.

"That's right!"

"This...Actually, I wasn't sure about your relationship with Master Xia before, and I asked Xinyue about it, but she refused to tell me, but your level of refining weapons is really outstanding. I got it from Wang Huaiyi by chance. Knowing that your crafting technique is similar to that Master Xia, and Master Xia once stayed in my country of Montenegro, so I thought that you might have that kind of relationship. Later, Dazong was investigating you, so I made this guess Listen to him!"

"Investigate me? Why is he investigating me?"

"Do you still remember that you used pills to trade a large amount of spiritual herbs from the treasury?"

"Is it because of this?"

"Of course it's more than that. He has known your name as a master craftsman for a long time, and you are also a master of alchemy. It is rare to see such a genius even among the super big schools, so he has the idea of ​​recruiting you. I also know that you have a close relationship with Xinyue, so I asked you..."

Qin Chuan thought about it, and felt that the other party's explanation made sense. If he had met such a double-talented talent, he would be very interested. He pondered for a while and continued to ask: "I don't know if the lord has ever mentioned my relationship with my teacher to outsiders. ?”

"Fellow Daoist Qin, please don't worry. Except Da Zongzheng, I haven't mentioned it to anyone else. Moreover, Master Xia has caused a lot of trouble recently. If you are involved, Xinyue will be noticed, and even our Montenegro country may be out of touch." Don't do anything!"

"That's good!" Qin Chuan is most worried about this matter. After all, what Guishou offends is a giant like the Artifact Refiner Alliance. What's more terrible is that once the relationship between the two parties is leaked, people will inevitably think of it It won't be in his own hands. At that time, even if he stays in the Hades Sect, it will be difficult to be safe.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but have a headache. When I played Xia Zhiyang, there were so many people present, but I still admitted the relationship between master and apprentice. It's really self-inflicted. Sooner or later, it will leak, so you must plan early!
When Dugu Shou saw that his face was changing, he thought that he had some idea of ​​killing people to silence him, so he hurriedly cursed and swore that he would not talk nonsense anymore, and would present the pros and cons to Da Zongzheng.

"It's good that you know the seriousness of the matter. In fact, the old master has already gone to your Da Zongzheng. I believe that Xinyue will be released soon!"

"You said Master Xia went to find Da Zongzheng?"

"Well, you can rest assured that with his old man's means, the matter should be resolved satisfactorily!"

……

As if to confirm Qin Chuan's words, after only two hours, Dugu Xinyue came back, and the palace immediately became lively. The father and daughter talked for a while before they came to the hall, "Brother Qin, where is Senior Xia?" ?”

"Hehe, just after you were released, you asked my master instead of me, which hurt me a lot!"

"I want to thank Senior Xia in person!" Dugu Xinyue said shyly.

"The old man has already left, you just need to thank me!"

"It's a pity that I didn't get to see him!"

"What? Do you have thoughts about my master?" Qin Chuan teased.

"Bah... what nonsense, I'll freshen up first, and we'll talk later!"

At the banquet, the three chatted for a long time. Apart from the state affairs of Montenegro, Xia Zhiyang was inevitably mentioned. Dugu Xinyue brought a big word, saying that he would not leak the news that Xia Zhiyang had appeared in Montenegro .

Afterwards, Qin Chuan temporarily lived in the palace, watching the development of the situation.

Soon, a small-scale palace coup took place in Montenegro. Dugu Chaoxi, who had just become the ruler for less than two years, was kicked out, and Dugu Xinyue, the first queen in the history of Montenegro, came to power.

This coup was interpreted by the outside world as a joint power-seizure operation launched by the army and the elders' association. The army representative naturally refers to King Ruyang. His prestige in the army is unquestionable, and the beneficiary is Dugu Xinyue also proves this point .

When the new ruler came to power, of course, some purges were unavoidable. First of all, a group of cronies headed by Prime Minister Jia Shilin were unlucky, and then those who were close to the Ruyang Palace were promoted.

At the time when Dugu Xinyue was reshaping the dynasty, Fengxian Kingdom took advantage of the unstable political situation of Montenegro to invade on a large scale. King Ruyang led troops to meet the enemy, relying on the powerful power of a hundred sets of rocket spirit cannons, defeated the soldiers of Fengxian Kingdom, What's more terrible is that its coach was beheaded on the spot by a masked man.

The morale of the Black Mountain Army was greatly shaken. They not only regained the lost ground, but also conquered several cities in one go. The helpers invited by the Fengxian Empire were all slaughtered by the masked men.

After this battle, Fengxian Kingdom was unable to resist, and had to cede land and pay compensation to surrender. Montenegro believed that it was incapable of destroying the country, and accepted the surrender along the way, but also put forward quite harsh conditions, one of which was that the City of Bone and the Wasteland of Bone would never be destroyed. Owned by Montenegro.

The real reason for putting forward this point is of course because Qin Chuan has the only teleportation array connecting Zhongzhou and Hanhai, so it is more appropriate to control the escape route in his own hands.

Stayed in Montenegro for a year, and during this year, Dugu Xinyue showed outstanding political talent, showing the potential of a strong woman at a glance, winning over divisions, and balancing and suppressing these imperial methods. The country soon fell completely under her control.

Qin Chuan saw the increasingly busy Her Majesty the Queen, and didn't know whether it was helping her or hurting her.

Flicking his clothes and hiding his achievements and fame, he then stepped into the teleportation array from Longjiang City to Liufang City.

After arriving in Liufang City, they contacted Kong Ming and his wife and Su Yifeng.

When friends met each other, Kong Ming kept tsk-tsk, and the brothers and sisters of the Su family looked at Qin Chuan as if they were looking at a monster.

"I said... what do you mean?"

"Oh... No. 1 in the Thirteen Continents Tournament, No. 1 in the entire Blue Rain Great World Golden Core Stage, tsk tsk... amazing, amazing!"

"So it's brother worship, I accept your admiration!"

"Look how beautiful you are!" She rolled her eyes three times.

After some jokes, the unfamiliarity that had not been seen for decades dissipated a lot. After three rounds of wine and five flavors, the atmosphere became more harmonious. The three of them wanted to know more about Shisanzhou Dabi and Lan Yuxian Mansion , while Qin Chuan inquired about the ghost hand.

Kong Ming deserves to be called "Jianghu Baowen". He has vividly described several major events that Guishou has done in recent years, as well as some reactions of the Artifact Refiner Alliance. Judging from this information, the Artifact Refiner Alliance is not real. The fundamental purpose of wanting to avenge the dead is still to refine the treasure tome.

After the banquet, he stayed for a while, and then arrived at Tongyou City via the teleportation array.

Instead of going back to the sect first, he sent a sound transmission talisman to Mu Yilian, but there was no reply for a long time, and he sent another one to Shen Danian, but within a stick of incense, the other party had already approached him.

"Okay, brother, you are in the limelight this time!" Shen Danian exclaimed as soon as they met.

"You mean the Thirteen Continents Competition?"

"What else can there be?"

Qin Chuan smiled wryly, "How did the sect react?"

"Haha, don't worry, although you are representing the world of cultivating immortals in the vast sea, you are still a disciple of our Pluto Sect. Of course, this honor belongs to the sect, but you are probably going to bleed a little. If you don't return for ten years, you must give the sect an explanation!"

"Well, I see, I haven't congratulated Brother Shen for advancing to the middle stage of Nascent Soul yet!"

"Don't just talk about it, do you have anything to say?"

Qin Chuan took out three flying knives, thought for a while and took out a blank jade slip, engraved the two secret techniques of feast of ghosts and gods and curse of darkness on it and handed it over.

A complete set of fake spiritual treasures is naturally worth a lot, but what really surprised Shen Danian was the two sets of secret techniques, "This is..."

"Two sets of Pluto 48 secret arts, brother Shen, what will happen if you hand over these two sets of secret arts?"

"What... you said this is the secret method inherited by Pluto?"

"That's right, Brother Shen, you probably haven't seen these two sets before?"

Shen Danian's face was full of shock, and it took him a long time to say: "Brother, who are you, why are you in possession of the secret technique lost by the Hades Sect?"

"Brother Shen, I'm afraid you don't know that Pluto's inheritance has a branch in the vast sea continent, right?"

"Branch, isn't there another Hades sect?"

"That's not true. It's a long story. A long time ago, Hades Sect established a sect called Yan Luo Sect in Hanhai. I am a monk from that branch, but I got the secret from other places..." Qin Chuan Skipping over the matter of Pluto's Palace, he directly said that Dalun Pluto had left an inheritance, and even deliberately mentioned Feiyun Sanren.

Shen Danian suddenly realized, "No wonder you said that Wanhun Banner is not the unique magic weapon of Hades Sect, so it is so!"

"Although we belong to different branches, the inheritance we received is from the same root, and the school over there is declining, so I came here not far away!"

These words are purely making up a story. Qin Chuan had already thought about it before coming here. He can no longer hide his identity as a Hanhai cultivator. He must give the sect an explanation, and the explanation just now is the most reasonable and inspirational. The disciples of the brother sect come Although there are some concealments for further studies, everyone is considered a family and belongs to the category of distant relatives, and everything can be forgiven.

"You are right, since everyone comes from the same origin, not only will the sect not embarrass you, but it will even pay more attention to you!"

Qin Chuan didn't want to dwell on this issue any longer, so he changed the subject and said, "Brother Shen, do you know about Mu Yilian's recent situation? I sent her a sound transmission talisman just now and there was no reply!"

"I knew you wanted to ask this!" Shen Danian's expression was a little strange.

"Don't be foolish, just say it!"

"Hehe, Mu Yilian was punished to face the wall and think about it!"

"Thinking about the wall? What happened?" Qin Chuan's face darkened.

"Don't worry, brother, it's nothing serious, it's just that he severely injured Elder Lu's grandson in Baihe Peak..." Seeing that he was going to have a fit, Shen Danian hurriedly explained what happened.

The cause of the incident is not complicated. Lu Huan, the grandson of Elder Lu in Baihe Peak, fell in love with Mu Yilian. He felt that he was in the golden elixir period, and the two parties were "well-matched", so he started a crazy pursuit. Mu Yilian met suitors over the years. There were too many, so he refused decisively, but this Young Master Lu knew the old saying "a good girl is afraid of being entangled", and she was as sticky as brown candy, which made Mu Yilian anxious, and then beat her into pieces by mistake. seriously injured.

As a master, Liu Xiangdong went to Baihe Peak to make an apology with a heavy gift, and that Elder Lu was considered enlightened, not to mention that his grandson Jin Danqi was beaten by others in the Foundation Establishment Period, which in itself was very embarrassing, and he accepted the gift and promised not to pursue it, but Fighting privately and injuring others in the sect must also be punished, so he was fined to face the wall for two years.

Hearing that this was the case, Qin Chuan breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time was a little speechless. It seemed that Mu Yilian had always encountered such things since she was a child. Could it be that she was a natural beauty?

After chatting for a while, Qin Chuan returned to the sect accompanied by Shen Danian. The first thing he did was to report to Lu Yangtian, the leader of Tianlu Peak, after all, this is his immediate boss.

When Lu Yangtian saw him, he reprimanded him, to the effect that he was disorganized and disciplined, and he went out privately for decades without returning. He became amiable, "Assuming you have a conscience, tell me, why did you go to the Hanhai Continent and compete for them in the Thirteen Continents Competition!"

Qin Chuan retold what he had said to Shen Danian again. The story was more logical than the first time, and no one could find any flaws.

When Lu Yangtian saw the two sets of formulas, his reaction was much greater than that of Shen Danian, "Come on, follow me to see the head teacher!" After speaking, he directly dragged him to Tiandu Peak to meet Tian Chengzhi.

When the same story was told for the third time, even Qin Chuan himself believed it, that he was the inspiring young man who traveled hundreds of millions of miles away to study.

Tian Chengzhi walked up and down the hall with the jade slips, and it took him a long time to suppress his excitement, "Qin Chuan, there are only these two sets of formulas, is there anything else?"

"Others? Are you talking about exercises?"

"Yes, it's the exercises. How many layers do you know of the Xuanming Sutra and the Heavenly Fiend Pluto Art?"

"I don't know the Heavenly Fiend Pluto's Art, but as far as I know, the Xuanming Scripture can be cultivated to the late stage of transformation!"

Tian Chengzhi was slightly disappointed when he heard this, but he still did not give up, "Can you write down the exercises silently?"

"No problem!" Qin Chuan quickly burned the entire set of Xuanming Scriptures on the jade slips.

Tian Chengzhi inspected it for a long time, and ordered someone to go to the Cangjing Pavilion to compare the original Xuanming scriptures in the collection, and found a slight difference between the two. With his eyesight in the stage of transformation, he quickly judged what Qin Chuan provided. The Xuanming Scripture seems to be more authentic.

"Part of the secret method you said comes from the iron sheet, show me the iron sheet!"

Qin Chuan handed over the iron plate that recorded the Five Elements Corpse King's Combined Strike Technique and the Deceitful Sword Art. Tian Chengzhi took it and looked at it carefully, and then handed the iron plate to Lu Yangtian, "Junior Lu, what do you think?"

"This piece of iron should be Huangquan black iron. There is a magic weapon passed down in the treasury, which is made from this material!"

"Well, it seems that it is indeed the inheritance left by the Great Wheel Pluto on purpose, that Feiyun Sanren, no matter what, he must try to arrest him, and see if he can get the most complete inheritance!"

"I'm afraid this matter is not easy to handle. According to Qin Chuan, this person is a half-step ghost-level existence. He comes and goes without a trace, and he is in a place like the Vientiane Space. Trying to catch him is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack. !"

"Well, this matter is of great importance. I will notify the elders later and let them decide!"
