Mortal bone

"Zhao Mou has met Mr. Zhao."

After hearing the question from the original owner of the Pearl, Zhao Mou quickly walked up to Xu Taiping, and bowed respectfully.

The owner of Yi Zhu Tower waved his hand, indicating to him to explain the current situation first.

Zhao Mou nodded immediately and said:

"Sir, seniors, just a few days ago, the monsters that were originally sleeping in the barrier were awakened by a mysterious demon crow that appeared without warning."

The owner of the leftover pearl immediately asked worriedly:

"Did Qu Shuang make him fall asleep again?"

The reason why I ask this is because if the monster had not fallen asleep, this secret realm would never be what it is now.

Zhao Mou nodded and said:

"Senior Qu Shuang, who was responsible for guarding the inner barrier, in order to make the monster sleep again, he forcibly used the Broken Army Sword, entered the monster's territory, and killed the accompanying mysterious crow, and then made it sleep again."

Hearing these words, Yizhu Louzhu and others were shocked.

Master Yunhe was afraid that Xu Taiping and Qingtong Xiejun would not understand, so he introduced to them:

"That monster spends most of its time sleeping in the secret realm. Unless you step into its territory, or like what Zhao Mou said just now, a mysterious demon crow appears in its territory to wake it up."

Qingtong Xiejun suddenly asked out of curiosity:

"Is it possible that you have been fighting that sleeping monster all this time?"

Xu Taiping actually wanted to ask this question.

It's just that he was wary of Zhao Mou and didn't dare to speak.

Fortunately, Qingtong Xiejun helped him ask.

Upon hearing this, True Lord Yunhe nodded helplessly and said:

"Yes, this monster has never really awakened since it was discovered."

True Lord Yunhe smiled bitterly and continued:

"We have always been fighting against the power of the demonic seeds that overflowed in our sleep. The power of the demonic seeds that was transformed just now is one of them."

Qingtong Xiejun said in surprise:

"A sleeping monster has not been killed for so many years?"

The reason why he was surprised was naturally not that he felt that Lord Yunhe and others were not strong enough, but that he was surprised by the power of the monster.

Although they knew that Evil Lord Qingtong did not mean any harm in his words, the faces of True Lord Yunhe and Master Yizhu were still full of shame.

At this time, the owner of Yizhu Tower suddenly asked Zhao Mou again:

"How is Senior Qu Shuang doing now?"

Zhao Mou sighed and said:

"The Pojun Sword is too difficult to control, and Senior Qu Shuang is not a swordsman. After barely killing the mysterious demon crow, under the backlash of Pojun's murderous power, not only his soul suffered heavy injuries, but his physical body was also severely damaged. , separation of flesh and blood.”

"In order to...not to be controlled by the power of the demon species, Senior Qu chose to fight."

Everyone was silent when they heard the words.

In fact, Yunhe, Zhenjun, and the owner of Yizhu Tower had already guessed this ending when they heard that Qu Shuang forced the Pojun Sword to move.

Zhao Mou said again at this time:

"That is, since then, the monster's sleepiness has become lighter, and the power of the monster seed overflows from its sleep from time to time."

"In the past few days, Senior Zhuo Buming and I have used formations to repel the tide of magic mist caused by the power of the demon seeds several times.

When he said this, he looked at the Master of Yi Zhu Tower and said:

"Sir, the power of the demonic seed you encountered just now should have overflowed from the barrier."

After being silent for a long time, the owner of Yizhu Tower suddenly glared at Zhao Mou, snorted coldly and said:

"Forcing Senior Qu Shuang to draw his sword, you are such a waste!"

Zhao Mou immediately lowered his head and said:

"Mr. taught me that."

True Lord Yunhe on the side immediately advised:

"Brother Yi Zhu, it's not Zhao Mou's fault for this. It's not like you and I have never encountered the mysterious crow appearing without any warning."

Elder Lou Da also spoke at this time:

"Brother Yi Zhu, which of the monks here doesn't care about life and death? Don't be too concerned about it."

After everyone's persuasion, the face of Yizhu Tower Master finally softened.

Xu Taiping, who was observing calmly from the side, saw a flash of sinister expression in Zhao Mou's self-blaming eyes.

This Zhao Mou was well hidden.

Even Xu Taiping, if he hadn't seen the picture in the lotus pupil curse seal, even if he saw this change in his eyes, he would definitely not take it to heart.

Xu Taiping murmured in his heart:

"Now it seems that the situation foreseen by Lian Tong's curse seal is correct. There must be something wrong with Zhao Mou."

"If there is really a problem with Zhao Mou, then there should also be a problem with what he just said about the situation at the barrier behind the Green Bamboo Sea."

"Those people who were guarding here before may be dead now."

Thinking like this, he glanced at everyone present, and then murmured in his heart:

"And judging from the attitude of True Lord Yunhe, Elder Lou and others towards Zhao Mou, they all trust him."

"Even the owner of Yizhu, although it seems that he is very strict on the surface, but in fact he has never suspected him."

"It's no wonder that with the strength of the owner of Yizhu Tower and the presence of True Lord Yunhe and Elder Lou, Zhao Mou has been able to succeed in a sneak attack for a long time."

Thinking of this, a new question suddenly appeared in Xu Taiping's mind——

"Then what is Zhao Mou's motive?"

"Why among the group of people on the scene, why do you want to assassinate the owner of the Lost Pearl Tower, your master?"

Judging from the situation that Liantong foresees, Zhao Mou also looked very painful after killing the owner of Yizhu Tower.

So if he just killed for the sake of killing, he would definitely not choose his mentor directly.

And just when Xu Taiping was thinking like this, Zhao Mou suddenly asked the owner of the leftover pearl:

"Master, did it go well when I went to Yingtian Academy to obtain the holy relics?"

The owner of Yi Zhu Tower nodded expressionlessly upon hearing this.

Upon seeing this, Zhao Mou's face suddenly lit up with joy, and then he blurted out:

"That is to say, Master, you borrowed the Chunqiu brush from Yingtian Academy?"

The owner of Yi Zhu nodded noncommittally.

Zhao Mou was overjoyed when he heard this and said:

"With this Spring and Autumn Pen, our chances of winning against the monster this time will increase by at least [-]%!"

On the side, True Lord Yunhe and Elder Lou had equally happy expressions on their faces.

Obviously, this Spring and Autumn Pen is an extremely powerful treasure.

However, when Xu Taiping heard the three words "Spring and Autumn Bi", the look that flashed in his eyes was not joy, but sudden enlightenment.

Xu Taiping murmured in his heart:

"It's no surprise that the reason why Zhao Mou attacked the owner of Yi Zhu Building is because of this Chun Qiu Brush."

At this time, after a few people exchanged greetings, True Lord Yunhe suddenly reminded him from the side:

"Young Master Wuyou, we are going to continue our journey."

As he spoke, he pointed to the green bamboo sea in front of him, and then continued:

"After passing through this sea of ​​green bamboo, there will be a teleportation array out of the secret realm, and we will send you back there, young master."

Xu Taiping smiled and nodded:

"Okay, Senior Yunhe."

Then, while rushing on the road against the wind, he was introduced by True Lord Yunhe and exchanged a few casual greetings with Zhao Mou.

At the same time, he began to silently think about how to deal with Zhao Mou's assassination next.

At this moment, the voice of Evil Lord Qingtong suddenly sounded in Xu Taiping’s mind——

"Boy, you have been distracted along the way. Did you discover something?"
