Chapter 148 The Mystery of Blood Talisman
Long Qi took out a yellow talisman from his arms. The talisman was shaped like a human, and the runes on it were dark red, unlike the cinnabar color seen every day. Now it was glowing purple.
Just as Long Qi was wondering why he had this thing on him, Mai Dong was shocked. Seeing the purple light getting brighter, she hurriedly snatched it from Long Qi's hand and threw it to the ground.
At the moment when the talisman fell to the ground, the phantom of the spiritual fragrance appeared where it landed, and the phantom changed between reality and illusion, and from time to time it turned into a solid entity.
"Oh my, the blood talisman is indeed more powerful. It can be activated from such a long distance." Lingxiang looked at Maidong in admiration, "Next time, even if it's your master, he will definitely not say that it's because my cultivation is not enough and I can't withstand his spiritual power."
Although it was just a joke, Maidong had some knowledge of the art of talismans. Drawing talismans with blood would shorten one's lifespan. What was so important that required the use of blood talismans?
Seeing the worry on Maidong's face, Lingxiang looked unconcerned.
"Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures. If I can help the Kunwu Sect this time, they will owe me a big favor. I will never do business at a loss, so I will naturally ask for it back, right? Don't worry."
But these words made Long Qi confused. What on earth was this little girl planning?
Xinyi, who had been silent, looked over when he saw Lingxiang. Seeing the expression on his face, Lingxiang knew that he must have found out something.
"But something was gained?"
Xinyi frowned, but remained silent for a long time before speaking: "It's not just as simple as just harvesting..."
Upon hearing this, Ling Xiang became interested and sat next to him: "That's interesting. Now I use blood talismans to replace my spirit. I have plenty of time to listen to you. Tell me in detail."
"That person is a female general beside the Demon Lord, named Yinghua, who is good at the art of punishment and transformation..."
……
"You are! Yinghuan!" Xinyi was horrified. Yinghuan always stayed beside the Demon Lord and had never been seen coming out. Why would she take the risk and come to Yuanqing in person?
Isn't she afraid of Yuan Qing's elders?
"Oh my~" Yinghua sighed, her tone full of seduction, "I didn't expect you to recognize it was me just now. I thought you would know after watching me for so many days."
"How can you enter Yuanqing? This Yuanqing sect clearly has..."
Before Xinyi finished speaking, Yinghuan interrupted and said, "The mountain guarding formation~" Yinghuan said, and walked to Xinyi with a sigh.
"The Yuanqing Sect is really getting worse with each generation. When Ling Xiao was the head of the sect, there wouldn't be any mountain-guarding formations like this. How could they be afraid of demons like us? But none of his disciples are useful, yet they still set up these things without any hesitation. Besides, these things are useless, how can they stop us?"
As she spoke, Huanhua placed a hand on Xinyi's shoulder and whispered into his ear, "Don't you agree, Lu family boy?"
This look seemed to be teasing Xinyi, but Xinyi did not move at all, just closed her eyes: "What are you doing here?"
However, Yinghua looked extremely aggrieved, and she even wrapped her arms around Xinyi: "After all, I am also your master, and I have taught you for many years. I haven't seen you for a long time, but you are so stiff. It makes me sad! Or..." As she spoke, she even sucked Xinyi's earlobe, "Or you have a new master, so you dislike me, your old master."
Xinyi clenched her fists, still standing firm like a pine tree. "You went to great lengths to enter Yuanqing, just to find out about Elder Fu Cang?"
Upon hearing this, Yinghua let go of Xinyi and covered her mouth with one hand as if she was very surprised: "Oh my! Is it Elder Fu Cang? Listen to this name, how unlucky it is, it is really an unlucky name!" Xinyi couldn't help it this time, and pushed her away with a wave of her hand: "How did you hide it from the elders of Yuanqing Sect? What is your purpose in coming here? With your personality, it is definitely not as simple as finding out about Elder Fu Cang."
Yinghuan leaned against a tree nearby and chuckled. Her laughter was frivolous and her posture was extremely charming. "You, you, even though you have grown up so much, your concentration is still so poor. Fortunately, I have trained you since you were young. I just want to see what kind of ability this Elder Fu Cang has. She can actually refine the life-extending pill. If she can really refine it, then I will kidnap her and make medicine for the Demon Lord every day, right?"
Xin Yi frowned upon hearing this: "Do you think you can succeed in front of all the elders?"
"How can you know if you will succeed or not if you don't try?"
……
"So, she is coming for me." Lingxiang said, pinching her chin, with no worry on her face at all.
Long Qi, who was standing by, was unwilling to hear this: "Since you have found out about this, why don't you tell the headmaster about it and kill the monster as soon as possible to prevent future troubles?"
Mai Dong, however, had a different idea: "I find it very strange. Although Master Zhao Ming's cultivation is not as good as Master's, this mountain guarding formation was instructed by the old man with the bamboo stick. It is impossible for him to let any demons in. How could the one called Acorus be a demon?"
"You won't let any demon go? Have you forgotten what happened during the martial arts performance?"
Lingxiang pulled Long Qi beside her when she heard this. She knew the reason for the previous incident. She had just confronted Xinyi for a while, but she had never told anyone about it. To be honest, it was not Master Zhaoming's fault.
"The demons have always had many methods, but what is certain is that Acorus is definitely not a demon."
Xinyi was very confused when he heard this. He had clearly seen her before and was sure that she was the transformed form of Yinghuan, so how could she not be a demon?
"what do you mean?"
Ling Xiang smiled and said, "I don't mean anything. I just want to make sure she is not a demon."
Just when everyone was wondering why she was so sure, she turned to Long Qi and asked, "I asked you to go to the ancient bamboo forest to ask for the Cizhu Sword. Did you get it?"
Long Qi was shocked when he heard this. Was he going to get the sword or not?
If it is coming, Lingxiang will ask for the flute back, but if it is not coming, what should she do if Lingxiang really wants to use it to exorcise the devil?
Long Qi hesitated for a long time, and Ling Xiang became impatient. She pulled him and asked again, "Are you going to get it or not? This is a matter of life and death, and there can be no room for carelessness."
Hearing this, Long Qi was cruel and answered as if he had suffered a great injustice: "Of course I had to come, and I was beaten up by that old man! He looked skinny, but I didn't expect him to be so strong. My head was swollen!"
Lingxiang was a little confused when she heard this. Although the old man with the bamboo stick had a strange temper, he was not an unreasonable person. Besides, she had asked Long Qi to take the jade flute with him, so why would he hit him?
As soon as she thought of the jade flute, Ling Xiang immediately understood. Her face turned red and she said to Long Qi unhappily:
"Since it's coming, hurry up and get it!" He said with a sullen smile: "It's time to teach that Yinghuan a lesson!"
