She narrowed her eyes, thought about it, walked to a remote place, took out the sound transmission note, muttered a few words, and the note turned into a ray of light and disappeared.

At the same time in the City Lord's Mansion.

"Hey, you want to see me?"

Chapter 857 Asking for help (5000)

"You want to see me?"

Keqing finally met Diao Mu, who was wearing a thin light pink shawl, a green diamond-colored double-breasted skirt, and a Qing Dynasty longan jade pendant around her waist. She looked simple but full of vigor and vitality.

His once heroic face now had a bit of softness, no longer as gentle and comfortable as before. The look in his eyes as he looked at me flickered slightly, with a bit of indescribable complexity.

On the other side, Diao Mu looked at Keqing in front of him and was secretly shocked!

As the rumors said, this woman had already reached the level of Divine Transformation. Her aura seemed calm and unfathomable, and even she couldn't figure out her depth.

Obviously, he possesses divine power, and his soul power is also beyond ordinary.

How did she practice? Does she still have the power to turn things around?

A feeling of powerlessness suddenly rose in my heart, and I regretted my arrogant self.

He should not have offended the other party in the first place and wanted to poison him with the Heart Gu. As a result, he is now under his control. In just one year, the other party has been promoted to a god and became his predecessor.

If it was a Nascent Soul, she could still secretly swear in her heart that if something happened, she would die with her. But if it was a Spiritual Transformation, let alone dying together, she would be afraid that she would not be able to resist a single move from the other party.

Even though he was a cultivation genius who made the list, the other party was even worse than him.

Diao Mu's mind was full of random thoughts and he was quite absent-minded.

Keqing was wondering why this person was so stunned and silent when he saw her.

"You asked me to come here just to see you in a daze?"

She reminded him, and Diao Mu raised his head slightly, pursed his lips, and looked at the other person with a complicated expression.

"How should I call you?"

"Just call me Keqing normally. If you hadn't used the Heart Gu on me before, it wouldn't have backfired."

Keqing doesn't care about group Lu Jiu Si; ⑨ San Lu]① San Wu as long as it's not the master or something like that.

Because he can control the other party due to the Tongxin Gu, he is now also forcing the other party to do things for him. This is the price of attacking him and is a necessary countermeasure.

But she will give the other party the respect they deserve instead of treating them as objects.

"Well... Fairy Keqing... I came to you just now because I want to ask for your help."

"Looking for my help?"

Keqing looked at her strangely.

"You are the daughter of the Lord of Guiyi City, you are of noble status, what can I help you with?"

Diao Mu looked embarrassed, then gritted his teeth and burned his thoughts.

"I want you to deal with someone who is a hindrance to me..."

As he spoke, he told the other party his plan, feeling quite nervous as he didn't know whether the other party would agree.

"You want to deal with him? As far as I remember, isn't he the True Lord of your Guiyi City? Are you, a young lady of Guiyi City, going to deal with your own people?"

Seeing Keqing’s confusion, Diao Mu smiled bitterly.

"Although my father is the mayor of Guiyi City, you also know that the greater the power, the more factions there are. And that person happens to be from another faction, and the power behind him is not small."

At this point, Diao Mu sighed.

“And my father intends to

I have formed a marriage relationship with them to attract them... Fairy, you also know that this kind of marriage will not have any good results." Diao Mu hesitated for a while, looked at Keqing, and then said, "And my physique is a Qinghui body. This physique relies on a wisp of pure air to cultivate. Once a relationship occurs, the cultivation speed will drop sharply!"

Diao Mu's tone was slightly cold, even a little indifferent, and Keqing was also surprised to hear it.

This is indeed somewhat unreasonable.

"You... isn't your father the Lord of Guiyi City? Could she be willing to sacrifice you? You are a genius who can be on the Heavenly Ranking..."

"Huh? My father, the fairy probably doesn't know that I had ten brothers and sisters before... but they all died... they were exploited completely."

"Those with poor talent die at birth, and those with good talent can be used if they are kept and raised. The Desolate State is not as vast as the Central State. The resources here are scarce. The powerful families, unless they have few offspring, are extremely pampered. Basically, the fittest will survive, and I just happened to be the one who made it."

Diao Mu sneered when he said this.

"As for geniuses? So what if they are geniuses? Can we afford to support them? Does the family lack geniuses? The more outstanding they are, the higher they are promoted, but the faster they die. In the end, they still become the prey of that person..."

When he said this, he suddenly realized something and stopped talking.

"Anyway, Fairy Keqing must understand the secrets of a large family, especially in a place like Desolate State where supplies are scarce. Even Guiyi City is no exception."

Keqing could clearly see the disgust in Diao Mu's eyes. She had never expected that this man would hate her family so much. Keqing also knew that Guiyi City had no shortage of talents or manpower, but what did she mean by the more outstanding one was, the faster one would die? And if she heard correctly, what she hadn't finished just now might be...

Become someone's meal?

Using the food on the plate as a metaphor will definitely not lead to good results.

And to be able to make the city lord's legitimate daughter and even a genius a meal, the status must be very high, a True Lord... no, above a True Lord.

Thinking of this, Keqing's expression became subtle.

"Fairy Keqing, if you can help me get rid of him, my father, who is so particular about profit, will definitely think twice and cancel this marriage."

Seeing that Keqing didn't say anything, Diao Mu thought she was hesitating and spoke quickly.

"Although my father takes advantage of his children, my status as the eldest daughter of Guiyi City is real. I can help you with both my connections and reputation."

"This time, he told me to make as many longevity pills as possible. If Fairy Rushi can help me get rid of him, and let me take the longevity pills back, I can gather all the credit. Then my status and importance will surely increase. If Licheng wants to gain a foothold in Huangzhou, it cannot do without Guiyicheng. If my status is improved, I can also help Licheng and provide a lot of convenience."

"But if that's what you said, even if I help you solve it, you still have to...?"

"That at least helps me buy some time. Plus, my status has improved, so the candidates he selects will definitely improve. He might even give up the idea of ​​marriage. After all, if I can befriend you from the Celestial Empire and win your favor, he will definitely value me!"

Diao Mu spoke up hastily, fearing that Keqing would refuse.

Heir to the Celestial Empire?

Keqing's eyes moved slightly, but she didn't refute. However, in Diao Mu's opinion, she had already admitted it.

No one knew what kind of power was behind this heir from the Celestial Empire, but she already knew her abilities and talents, which were indeed extraordinary. If she could get on this path...

This is her chance!

Diao Mu has been thinking about it these days. After some analysis, she suddenly felt that this Tongxin Gu might not be a crisis, but an opportunity!

Sometimes you want to curry favor with someone but you can’t, but now by chance you have established such a relationship.

Guiyi City is indeed strong, but I am just a puppet of it. If I want to jump out and don’t want to be exploited, I have to find a bigger force.

It is obvious that this fairy Keqing is it.

She was confused before, and only thought that her pride could not allow her to be subservient to others and become a slave without freedom.

But when she thought about it carefully, wasn't she actually in the cage? Beneath the flowers and brocade around her was the malicious intent that wanted to devour her completely.

If you want to get out, you have to let go of your self-esteem and face.

You can't hug someone's thighs just because you want to. Now that the opportunity has come, if you still refuse to change your mind, you would be stupid.

You deserve to be exploited.

"I don't know... Would Fairy Keqing be willing to help me?"

Diao Mu whispered.

In fact, it's not that she can't solve this problem by herself, but if she has the help of the other party, it will definitely be a lot easier, especially if she wants to get close to the other party, then she naturally has to ease the relationship, and this is a good opportunity.

"how should I do?"

After a long time, Keqing spoke, and Diao Mu's face lit up with joy.

"You don't need to do anything, fairy. All you need to do is to deliberately delay the invitation to the auction house and express some concerns about the threat from Master Minghui to you to other cities."

"You don't have to do anything, just leave it to me afterwards."

So simple?

Keqing thought that the other party wanted her help, that kind of substantial fighting power, so she thought that the other party might want to use the two seniors to deal with it secretly.

"In that case, there is no problem."

Keqing nodded.

"that……

As for the longevity pills, how much can you give me?"

“Of course, the price is definitely worth it.”

Diao Mu added that no matter how poor Huangzhou was, as the number one power, how could Guiyi City not have some foundation? Keqing's identity was special, and the longevity pill was even more special, so they really had to show some sincerity.

Of course, this was mainly suggested by Diao Mu. After all, in order to get more longevity pills in the future, it is best to make friends.

However, Minghui held a different opinion. He repeatedly used his status as an elder to make comments along the way. He even felt that Licheng was able to enter the Hundred Cities because of Guiyi City, so there was no need to be so polite.

Diao Mu was annoyed about this but could do nothing about it.

After this time, I don’t have to worry anymore.

"Outside the auction house, I can give you... five."

"Five!"

"Yes, five. That's all for now."

Too many are not good either, five is just right. Although the longevity pill is special, it must also remain scarce. It is not good to be too easy to obtain.

Keqing shook her head slightly.

"Five is enough!"

This is such a pleasant surprise...

I didn't expect there were five of them, not counting the auction house.

Diao Mu thought, when the time comes, I will use some tricks to make Ming Hui return empty-handed, and he will definitely cause trouble afterwards, and then...

When I return after an accident, that person will surely be furious. At that time, I will show my friendly attitude towards the fairy and offer her these five longevity pills. Then my plan will succeed.

After some thought, Diao Mu sorted out the plan in his mind.

"Fairy Keqing, please see what you need."

She handed over a storage bag and Keqing took it and took a look.

"Guiyi City is indeed a big city, why is it so short of resources?"

Not to mention the other things in here, their value is indeed very high, several times higher than the auction house's price.

Diao Mu smiled.

"After all, it's tens of thousands of years of accumulation. Are you satisfied, fairy?"

"Yes, I'll give you the longevity pill later. I'm afraid you'll have to wait for a while."

"That's no problem, Fairy. Are the longevity pills at the auction house not also in stock?"

Keqing nodded, and Diao Mu seemed to be thinking about something.

If this is the case, it will be more conducive to my plan. Then...

"Do you have anything else to do? If not, then I will..."

"Wait, can you please act out a scene with me... I don't mean to act out a scene, I just want to show that I have a good relationship with you, at least in public for everyone to see..."

"Sure, I'm going to check out the market, so you can come along."

Before she could finish, Keqing nodded, knowing what she meant.

He just wanted to create the situation that he had a "close" relationship with her. It didn't matter. After all, after he left, Licheng really needed her secret care. Since she regarded herself as a person from the Celestial Empire, she was afraid that they would think so too. It was not impossible for her to borrow this power.

Although... Keqing only knew that she was not the so-called heir to the Celestial Empire, she did not lie.

Keqing nodded in her heart.

He was indeed not the heir, because he himself held the so-called Imperial Seal of the Celestial Empire.

The place where she governs is the Celestial Empire...
