Quick Wear: Heaven Always Favors Me

Murong Zhao also agreed with this reason, and the two of them set off directly to find Lu Qingyao.

"Let's go, Zhaolang,"

Lu Qingyao thought that Jiang Yao and Murong Zhao would take a lot of time, so she was a little surprised when she saw the two people coming to her house.

Jiang Yao only explained: "After all, we still need to prepare some materials for the weapon refiner, so we just happened to come to meet Fairy Lu."

Lu Qingyao didn't say much, and asked Jiang Yao and the other two to follow her to the meeting hall.

On the way, Lu Qingyao talked about some things about fighting demons. Near the demon stronghold in Bian City, they found many demon cultivators. Normally, if demonic energy entered the body of a cultivator, his spiritual roots would be damaged, but that was not the case for those demon cultivators.

The demonic energy greatly improved their cultivation. So far, the lowest demon cultivator Lu Qingyao and the others had seen was at the great perfection of the foundation building stage, while the one with the highest cultivation was Jin Qi whom they saw today.

"If we want to go deeper into the demon-killing site, I think there are demon cultivators with a cultivation base as high as the Nascent Soul stage. However, most of the disciples in our major sects are in the late Foundation Establishment stage. There are not many disciples in the Golden Core stage, and even there are only a few Star Lords in the Nascent Soul stage." Lu Qingyao sighed slightly and said, "So I am very grateful for the two of you joining me."

Jiang Yao seemed to agree on the surface, but secretly she couldn't help but wonder, if the matter was so serious, why didn't Lu Qingyao report it to the sect.

She sent a voice transmission to Murong Zhao and asked, "Master, has our sect received any feedback from Lu Qingyao?"

Murong Zhao replied: "No, Xuanyuan Li did not report it either."

After Murong Zhao replied, he looked at Lu Qingyao and asked, "If that's the case, why don't you report it to Wuji Sect?"

Lu Qingyao was silent for a moment and said, "I have passed the news to the sect, so the sect sent Master to accompany me."

Lu Qingyao is lying! But why?

Jiang Yao and Murong Zhao looked at each other calmly, and then showed expressions that showed they believed in Lu Qingyao.

When the three of them arrived at the meeting hall, they found that it was already full of people, with Xuanyuan Li sitting in the very middle of the hall.

Lu Qingyao stepped forward, saluted with both hands and said: "Master, these two are the cultivators who helped me capture Jin Qi today. They have high cultivation levels, so I would like to ask you to join us in the fight against the demons."

Xuanyuan Li was dressed in white, with an indifferent look on his face. He glanced at Jiang Yao and Murong Zhao and said, "It's up to you, but the matter of exterminating the demons is urgent. Several people who went to the demon stronghold today have disappeared."

"Yes, I also know about this matter, so I plan to gather everyone together in the next few days to go to the demon stronghold to find out what's going on." Lu Qingyao replied to Xuanyuan Li in a flat tone, but the respect and dependence she had shown to Xuanyuan Li before were completely gone in her words.

Next, Lu Qingyao told everyone in the meeting hall about the arrangements for the demon-killing war.

Jiang Yao noticed that in the entire meeting hall, there were very few disciples from the Wuji Sect, and most of them were from the Dao Sect and the Baihong Sect. Among them, the Dao Sect had the largest number of people, about a hundred in total.

The departure date for the demon-killing expedition was set for five days later. Once the five days were up, Lu Qingyao would lead the team to the demon stronghold in Biancheng.

That night, Jiang Yao and Murong Zhao were assigned to the same room.

"Master, I always feel that this matter is a little weird." Jiang Yao frowned. Whether it was the matter of slaying demons or the fact that Xuanyuan Li and Lu Qingyao did not report it to the sect, Jiang Yao felt it was very strange.

After all, dealing with the demons has a huge connection with the entire world of immortal cultivation.

"I have no clue about this matter." Murong Zhao also felt that this matter was strange, but he did not understand it. He comforted Jiang Yao and said, "It's okay. Your master will not let you be in danger. Keep this."

As he spoke, a beam of white light sank into Jiang Yao's sea of ​​consciousness.

"It's just that my spiritual mark can withstand three attacks from the Nascent Soul stage." When Murong Zhao emitted a ray of white light, his face turned slightly pale. The spiritual mark with a protective function would at least split a part of his spiritual consciousness. This feeling must be uncomfortable.

What's more, resisting three attacks would consume even more energy and practice.

Jiang Yao also knew this, and quickly grabbed Murong Zhao's hand, frowning and saying: "Master, it would be great if you can resist once..."

Murong Zhao comforted Jiang Yao and said, "It's okay. In their eyes, I am just a Jindan-stage cultivator. This level is no problem for me."

Seeing Jiang Yao's still tense face, he chuckled: "I've already given it to you, and you haven't come back yet, so you might as well smile more for me."

"Next time you do this, tell me in advance." Jiang Yao also knew that Murong Zhao wanted to protect her, but she would feel guilty if Murong Zhao got hurt due to the loss of his spiritual awareness and cultivation.

Murong Zhao agreed: "Okay, I'll let you know next time, don't be angry."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and stroked Jiang Yao's frowning brow.

Jiang Yao squinted at him, but still relaxed her expression: "I'll forgive you this time."

During the next five days, Jiang Yao and Murong Zhao collected a lot of information.

Those disciples who came to fight the demons were all those who had some talent but were not valued by the sect. Even the star gods of the sect were about to die and wanted to seek an opportunity or to contribute their remaining strength.

In the past few days, Lu Qingyao also brought several Jindan-stage cultivators to join the demon-killing team. In the end, there were more than 500 people, including about 100 Jindan-stage cultivators.

Five days later, Jiang Yao and Murong Zhao followed Lu Qingyao and his party to the entrance of the demon stronghold.

"Please make sure to wear the communication jade pendants on your waist and communicate in time if there is any danger." Lu Qingyao instructed before entering.

"Yes." Disciples and star gods from various sects responded one after another.

Jiang Yao followed Murong Zhao and stepped into the entrance together.

A white light flashed in front of them, and Jiang Yao and Murong Zhao disappeared at the entrance together. The person who appeared beside them was Xuanyuan Li.

Jiang Yao frowned slightly, then took a step back and said politely, "Greetings, Lord Zhize."

Xuanyuan Li hummed, then his right hand suddenly cut through the void and pulled out his natal spiritual weapon - the Frost Cloud Sword.

Jiang Yao felt something was wrong, and she subconsciously used her spiritual power to retreat ten meters away. However, the spiritual mark given by Murong Zhao in her sea of ​​consciousness had already been triggered, and she directly resisted Xuanyuan Li's sudden attack.

"What does this mean, Star Lord Zhi Ze?" Jiang Yao's face turned cold and he summoned his own spirit sword in his hand.

If it weren't for the spiritual mark Murong Zhao left her, she would have been seriously injured if not dead.

There is indeed something fishy about this demon-killing expedition, and it is closely related to Lu Qingyao and Xuanyuan Li!
