Keqing, it’s just cultivating immortality, is it that difficult?

This female cultivator is so arrogant. How on earth could she attack the Immortal Alliance?

"Why don't you come and capture her for me? How dare you cause trouble in the Immortal Alliance."

However, no one responded to the shrill cry.

"Pooh!"

After spitting out a mouthful of blood, Ma Qian looked around viciously, only to find that the usually obedient foundation-building cultivators were standing there obediently, not saying a word.

"What are you doing? Standing there? You can't get up yet!"

"Do you want to commit treason?!"

Ma Qian said angrily.

"I think you are the one who is committing treason! Ma Qian."

A voice was suddenly heard, and a figure walked out from the Immortal Alliance.

"I told them to stop, what do you have to say?"

A familiar voice came from behind him. Ma Qian's body trembled, and surprise appeared along with a forced smile, but it looked a little funny on his abnormally red and swollen face.

"Captain Lu, why are you out today?"

Hasn't the other party been in seclusion? Why is he...

"If I hadn't come out, I wouldn't have known that you were so arrogant and actually attacked your superiors!"

The middle-aged man's eyes sharpened and he snorted.

"He tied me up, and all these people

Tie it up."

"Yes!"

No one knew where other people appeared from, and they tied up Matthew and the vendor, but Matthew was still confused.

"The envoy? What envoy? Senior Ma, you are not fooled by this woman's appearance, are you? Senior Lu, you can't do this! This woman is obviously..."

Seeing that Ma Qian was still refusing to repent and was trying to instigate something, Lu Xiang snorted coldly and a torrent of spiritual power rushed over, slapping Ma Qian hard in the face.

"cough cough"

Ma Qian was beaten so hard that he felt dizzy and dazed.

"Open your eyes and look. The envoy is wearing the Green Lotus Token. What? Do you think my eyes are frightening?"

When the drowsy Matthew heard Lu Xiang's words, he subconsciously opened his eyes and looked carefully.

Suddenly, his whole body trembled and his face turned pale.

At the girl's waist, a familiar pattern of a blooming blue lotus suddenly appeared before his eyes.

"How could it be... obviously..."

Matthew could never have imagined that this female cultivator was actually the envoy from heaven. Suddenly he understood why the other party was so fearless and why she came in again. It turned out that she was also a member of the Immortal Alliance!

It’s over! Completely finished!

Looking at Matthew with a pale face, Lu Xiang waved his hand and had him taken away without even looking at him, then bowed and smiled.

"I didn't know the envoy was coming, and I was sorry for not welcoming him. Why didn't the envoy inform me in advance?"

Keqing didn't reply to him, but suddenly asked.

"them……"

"Don't worry, they will receive the punishment they deserve. Although their lives will not be harmed, they will be severely punished for doing evil for so long."

At this point, Lu Xiang sighed.

"Ah, it's all my fault for staying in seclusion and not caring about the world. Otherwise, this group of people wouldn't have taken advantage of the situation and committed such evil. I feel really guilty about this."

It was a very tactful answer, and he even separated himself from the situation just right. As for whether the other party really knew about it or acquiesced to it, how could he know?

Keqing looked at him and didn't pursue the matter further, but mentioned another matter.

"Without further ado, I came here this time on the orders of the Venerable to investigate the mass death and disappearance of cultivators in the secret realm. I would like to ask for your help, Fellow Daoist Lu."

Lu Xiang was slightly surprised.

"Venerable? Which venerable?"

"Guang Heng Zun of Xiao Cang Mountain, what's wrong? Is there any problem?"

"No, there is no problem. I thought the envoy was sent by the higher-ups to replace me, but I didn't expect that he came here specifically to investigate the matter. Lu Xiang breathed a sigh of relief."

Relieved? Isn't it a good thing to replace him? Why do I feel relieved subconsciously?

There was a hint of suspicion in her eyes, but Keqing didn't say anything, but asked.

"Please help me, fellow Taoist, and bring out the recent records of the secret realm, as well as the alliance records of the past few decades, for me to review."

Decades ago, the number of monks who died in the secret realm increased, and the number of people who went missing near the secret realm also increased. Perhaps the alliance that recorded all the major and minor events in the vicinity would have detailed records.

I thought Lu Xiang would cooperate with my work.

Keqing didn't take this matter seriously, but unexpectedly Lu Xiang looked puzzled.

"Your Excellency, are you here to investigate the disappearance of a monk? But I've never heard of a monk going missing?"

Keqing frowned slightly.

"No?"

Yes, I, Lu, have never heard of this.

As he spoke, it suddenly dawned on him.

"The news you received should be from more than ten years ago. Lv was assigned here more than ten years ago and has been doing well ever since. I have never heard of him going missing, and I have no idea of ​​any deaths in the secret realm. According to our statistics, the number of deaths in the secret realm is no more than 10%. This should be within a reasonable range, right?"

One percent is indeed not high for a secret realm...

Before Keqing could say anything, Lu Xiang shook his head.

"I think you may have been deceived. Since I came here, none of the things you said have happened. Everything is fine. After all, this is the mortal world, and there are not many resources. How can there be so much fighting and killing? I think it must be a lie made up by the previous helmsman in order to leave here and attract people's attention!"

Lu Xiang said confidently.

Chapter 97: The Unknown Plan (Part 2)

"be honest!"

Just then, a law enforcement team from the Immortal Alliance came in with a group of cultivators.

"Captain..."

The monk saluted and then glanced at Keqing beside him.

"This is the envoy."

"Your Majesty!"

Salute respectfully.

"Ah."

Keqing nodded, then looked at the monk beside her in confusion.

“Who are these people?”

"They were looking for trouble and were fighting outside the market. We saw them and stopped them and escorted them back."

"Is this so..."

There were not many people outside the market, so where did the fight come from? Keqing looked puzzled and stared at those people for a moment.

Seeing this, Lu Xiang's breathing stagnated, and then he coughed.

"Well, in that case, take them back."

"Yes!"

The man quickly pushed the person behind him in.

Keqing paused and made her previous request again.

"Let me take a look at the Alliance Records first."

"Since the Lord Envoy does not believe me, then I can only cooperate with your investigation."

There was a hint of sarcasm in these words, but Keqing's expression did not change, as if she hadn't heard it.

"Then please take me there, Brother Lu."

吕祥

He smiled and then said please. Keqing followed him and came to a small room filled with books.

“These are all recorded in the county annals.”

"So many?"

"Ahem, after all, there have been frequent fights between monks over the past few decades, so it is inevitable that there are more. So, does the envoy need help?"

"I can find someone to ask them to pick out the key ones."

Lu Xiang made thoughtful suggestions

"no need."

What's the point of being singled out?

Keqing shook her head.

Seeing this, Lu Xiang narrowed his eyes.

"In that case, I will take my leave first. I came out of seclusion this time because I have some other things to do. I cannot accompany you. Please forgive me, Your Excellency."

"Um…"

Keqing ignored his attitude and picked up a copy of the Alliance History and started flipping through it.

Lu Xiang closed the door and walked out. He looked at the room behind him, curled his lips slightly, then quickly walked into a room and performed some magic spells.

As the spiritual power was released, a dark entrance to an underground cave opened at the door of the room. It looked extremely eerie, but Lu Xiang was used to it and walked in expressionlessly. As he went deeper, the atmosphere inside became darker.

He could have lit a lamp to illuminate the place, but it seemed like he did it on purpose, or maybe he didn't like light. As the sand and stones were grinding, Lu Xiang came to an altar with dim incense burning. What was placed on the altar was not a clay statue, but a string of hearts hung together!

The heart was thin and black, and extremely alive. It was even beating. As it beat, faint evil spirits emanated from it and were then sucked back in.

"What is the matter with you, my lord? Is there something wrong in the secret realm?"

"How is the sacrifice prepared?"

A voice that sounded neither male nor female was heard. Lu Xiang paused and bowed his head respectfully.

"The sacrifices are almost ready, don't worry."

"Um…"

The atmosphere suddenly stagnated.

"Has anything big happened recently?"

"Big deal? It's nothing big..."

Lu Xiang frowned slightly. Did the master wake him up just for this? But nothing happened.

"By the way, an envoy from the Immortal Alliance came today and said he wanted to investigate the disappearance of the cultivator."

"Yuan Ying Master?"

"No, it seems that he is just a foundation-building cultivator."

Lu Xiang paused.

"Why do you think the other party is a Yuanying?"

"..."

"A few days ago, I used my clone to trigger a drought in the Mortal Kingdom based on the three emotions and six desires. I thought I could collect enough resentment, but who would have thought that a heavy rain would ruin my arrangement."

"I sensed traces of the art of summoning wind and rain..."

"The art of calling the wind and rain!? That's not something that only Nascent Soul cultivators can do. Could it be..."
