Pei Suoyu said softly, and Lu Jinan nodded and walked outside.

Pei Suoyu and Xiao Yinruo were still drinking and seemed to be in a good mood.

Qiu Qingtang lowered his brows in thought, and seemed to move closer to Xiao Yinruo intentionally or unintentionally, then found an excuse to leave.

Zhu Nanzhi frowned slightly: "Does she want to go find her husband?"

"It's no use looking for it." Mu Qingyue took Lu Jinan's bowl and chopsticks. Zhu Nanzhi glared at her: "What do you want to do?"

"Have a meal."

"Don't you have any dishes?"

"If you treat everything related to your junior fellow apprentice as food, your body will be satisfied."

Zhu Nanzhi suddenly understood why Mu Qingyue and Qiu Qingtang had become closer.

She rolled her eyes speechlessly and said, forget it, she was too lazy to bother with it.

Just don't invite this vixen into your home.

Lu Jinan had just walked a short distance when he began to pinch the magic formula with his fingertips, preparing to eliminate the scent of Aunt Ruo that remained on his body.

Since it is an affair, all traces that may be exposed must be eliminated.

"What does Mr. Lu want to do?"

A clear voice suddenly came from below. Lu Jinan looked down and saw a cute little pink fox had climbed up his trouser leg.

He took a look at the glowing earrings worn on the little fox's ears - a space-based magical artifact.

Then, he kicked forward with force to shake off the fox on his leg, calmly completed the spell, and continued walking.

The fox in the air turned back into the innocent-looking Qiu Qingtang when it landed, but this time the fox spirit smiled a little cunningly.

"What is Master Lu using his spiritual power to clear?"

Qiu Qingtang put his hands behind his back and walked around Lu Jinan with a smile: "There's no stain on your body, right?"

Lu Jinan laughed and said, "I don't like to have their scent on me when I'm at work."

"Do you believe it?" Qiu Qingtang raised his right hand, and the demonic energy in his palm was like a cloud of misty smoke, hiding the fragrance of Xiao Yinruo that was like gardenia.

"Why does Mr. Lu have such a strong body fragrance of Palace Master Xiao?" Qiu Qingtang deliberately brought the cloud of smoke close to his nose: "It seems that there is also some smell of Mr. Lu———

Why do Mr. Lu have two different smells on his calves?

Qiu Qingtang's eyebrows curved: "Palace Master Xiao's legs are really long."

Lu Jinan's footsteps did not pause at all, and his expression did not change at all. What could this prove? Especially since this vixen had not yet been ruled out as a suspect in the letter, who would believe her lies?

Qiu Qingtang's smile faded slightly. Looking at the unmoved Lu Jinan, he suddenly blew away the smoke in his hand and asked, "Aren't you panicking at all?"

"It's just groundless speculation, why should I panic?" Lu Jinan smiled noncommittally, "Now I really suspect that the letter was your masterpiece."

He glanced at Qiu Qingtang and said, "They are all trying to sow discord."

"I'm not threatening you." Qiu Qingtang's steps were still brisk: "I just want to know--" - How can you describe the excitement of having an affair?

Is it the feeling of being frightened when you hear footsteps approaching while you are comforting yourself?

"You know the saying that curiosity kills the cat?"

"I'm a fox."

"It's all the same." Lu Jinan smiled: "I still like the way you talk dirty."

Qiu Qingtang happily wagged her tail a few times: "Master Lu, are you trying to silence me? So you really are with Palace Master Xiao—"

"Yeah." Lu Jinan nodded: "You guessed right, that's it."

As they walked out of the Taichu Palace and were about to descend the stairs, Lu Jinan paused: "What about you? Is your purpose in coming to the Taichu Palace just to understand this kind of thing?"

Qiu Qingtang's smile faded slightly: "Doesn't Mr. Lu enjoy music and dance every night?

Lu Jinan said lightly, "From our respective standpoints, you are more anxious than me, otherwise you wouldn't have taken the initiative to come to Wandao Sect."

"What do you want to say?"

"What are the origins of those new demonic beasts that appeared at the Two Worlds Pass?" Lu Jin'an asked slowly. "Among them are several fox demons from Qingqiu. You're also from Qingqiu, did you know that?"

Qiu Qingtang tilted his head and looked at Lu Jinan: "Is it appropriate for Mr. Lu to ask me this kind of question?

"I know that although your Qiu clan foxes are friendly to humans, you are still foxes after all, otherwise you wouldn't live in the demon world." Lu Jinan said, "But as for cooperation, if you can cooperate, then cooperate. If you can't, then forget it."

Qiu Qingtang's eyes lit up slightly: "You agree to let me observe?"

Lu Jinan shook his head: "I wouldn't trade something like this. You have other purposes, don't you?"

"I don't need to discuss what I want to do with you." Qiu Qingtang shook his head: "As for what you want to ask me, I don't know."

Lu Jinan nodded and started walking again. Qiu Qingtang stood there looking at his back, as if thinking about something.

If he could find evidence that there was something going on between Lu Jinan and Palace Master Xiao, he wouldn't be so calm, right?

As soon as Lu Jinan stepped into the threshold of the Executive Court, Jiang Wuya came to greet him with a serious expression: "Son, something happened."

"Where?" Lu Jinan asked as he walked.

"At the Two Realms Pass, several elders and disciples of the Linyuan Sword Sect were captured. One of them was Ji Jianxian's younger sister, Ji Xiao."

Lu Jinan stopped and thought for a moment before asking, "Qi Xingyu's aunt?"

"Ok.

"The demon tribe wants me to rescue people?" Lu Jinan continued to ask, otherwise Jiang Wuya would not have specifically emphasized this matter to him.

"Just wanted to talk to you."

"When?"

"Tomorrow." Jiang Wuya said, "They specifically called your name."

Lu Jinan sat back in his chair: "The Linyuan Sword Sect is not that weak, right? They can't save even one person?"

"We've organized several operations, but they all failed." Zhao Shize had already handed Lu Jinan the intelligence about the Two Worlds Pass. "It's a stalemate now. Those monsters just want to see you."

Lu Jinan quickly browsed through it and asked: "What time tomorrow?"

"Noon."

"Then let's take a walk."

Lu Jinan put down the intelligence in his hand, and asked as if he remembered something, "Has Sect Master Qi gone?"

"No."

Lu Jinan was silent for a while and then asked, "Where is Ji Jianxian?"

"nor."

"In other words, Ji Xiao isn't particularly important to them, right?"

"That's not clear."

Lu Jinan nodded: "Let's finish today's work first."

Author: I'm a bit stuck in writing. I haven't finished 300,000 words this month. Including the monthly votes, I owe 80,000 words. I'll start paying it back next month.

Chapter 259: Being courteous for nothing

To the west of Liangjie Pass is the demon clan’s Northern Demon Saint Army camp.

Although the Northern Demon Saint is not on the demon clan's front line, as one of the four guardians of the demon clan's royal court, he naturally has his own personal army at the front line of the two worlds.

But now, in this military tent with the flag of the Great Peng flying, sitting on the first seat is a burly figure with a lion head and mane, wearing armor.

The Lion King who occupied the tent was holding a cow leg in his hand and eating it with big mouthfuls, with blood splattering everywhere.

Beside him, the bull demon was trembling with fear in his eyes, but when the Demon King looked at him, he still endured the severe pain and offered his other leg.

The ferocious appearance, burly figure and thick smell of blood filled the tent with oppression, and made the black-robed figure below involuntarily clench his hands.

The man in black robe clenched his hands slightly as he looked at the new Demon King of the Lion Clan.

The scene of eating a live cow did not scare her. She was just surprised by the appearance of the demon king.

Although it was not the first time she had seen this demon king, every time she saw him she felt confused and shocked.

Is this the method used by the demon race to transform?

The demon race's transformation can conceal a lot of demonic aura, but this demon king clearly looks like he has transformed, but demonic aura is overflowing.

This pervasive demonic aura is a unique characteristic of the demon race's original form, but this Demon King's body is clearly in its transformed form, so why can he emit the demonic aura of his original form?

During this period of time, she had seen many such monsters, so she was shocked.

In silence, the Lion King had already picked up the human-like bull demon and started eating it from the beginning, making a crunching sound.

The man in black robe closed his eyes and said in a slightly hoarse voice, "Lu Jinan will come tomorrow."

After sucking the flesh from his fingers, the Lion King casually said, "You guys were able to find out the news about the Wandao Sect so quickly?"

"The Wandao Sect didn't hide anything." The black-robed man said expressionlessly, "And didn't Lu Jinan accept the challenge before?"

The Lion King licked the corner of his mouth and said, "The Holy Son of Wandao Sect should taste even better."

The black-robed man sneered, "Although you are strong enough to occupy the Dapeng clan's military camp, I don't think you are a match for Lu Jinan."

"This emperor has never thought of fighting him."

Hearing the Lion King's voice, the man in black robe's face darkened a bit: "Then what's the point of doing so much? You should know how big the risk of being exposed is by cooperating with you!

It's no secret that the Wan Dao Sect is now actively searching for those who have taken over bodies from the upper realms! "

The Lion King walked down from his seat, his armor rubbing against each other, but there was no sound of footsteps.

"That's why we have to deal with it." The Lion King patted his belly and said slowly, "You will know tomorrow."

The man in black robe looked at the Lion King silently, with a flicker of suspicion in his eyes.

Not because of his words, but because of his tone.

This demon king has well-developed limbs and a fierce appearance, but he seems to be quite calm - which is not common among demons.

But thinking of the scene where the lion king had just eaten his subordinates alive, the man in black robe couldn't help but clench his hands.

Whether it's this Lion King or the other Demon Kings, there's something weird about them.

Where did it come from?

"I hope you can succeed." The man in black robe turned around and said, "If you fail, neither of us will look good.

The Lion King showed a noncommittal look, then walked out of the tent and looked at the monster beasts patrolling not far away.

He glanced over and grinned: "You, come here and bet with this emperor."

He pointed to a roc.

Dapeng's face changed and he immediately looked around, but all he saw were eyes filled with pity.

Everyone knows that this new Lion King likes to gamble.

And the stakes are your body...

The loser voluntarily offers his body to be eaten alive by the winner.

Then, eat and gamble.

At night, I live in Fuyao.

Lu Jinan sat on a chair beside the table in the outer room, looking expressionlessly at the images recorded by the Shadow Catching Stone and transmitted back from the front line of the Two Worlds Pass.

In the picture, a figure in armor comes and goes like the wind on the battlefield of Liangjie Pass, unstoppable.

Even among the monsters at the border between the two realms, very few are wearing armor, because most of them will transform back to their original form during battle, and the armor on their bodies will become a burden at that time.

Those who like to wear armor are all superior monsters, because even if they maintain their transformed form, they can still fight back and forth with the elites of the human race.

However, the monsters recorded in the Shadow-Catching Stone are different from the monsters Lu Jinan is familiar with.

The armor on these monsters covers their entire bodies without any flaws, but this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is the style they show in battle.

Lu Jinan repeatedly observed how they fought, and wrote a few words on paper while pondering.

"Humanoid fighting style..."
