At this time, Mu Chongran and others who were walking all the way towards the official road could not sense any news about Xiao Junqing.Mu Chongran's mood became more and more impetuous.

Shangguanqing couldn't bear it anymore and grabbed Mu Chongran, saying: "If you can't calm down, we won't be able to find him."

Mu Chongran was about to speak with red eyes when he was suddenly taken aback and his eyes lit up.

A yellow light and shadow in the distance approached them at an extremely fast speed. An Ming's first reaction was to draw his sword, and then he felt that the aura of that light and shadow was very similar to Xiao Junqing.

The galloping Ji Xiaomeng ran headlong into Mu Chongran's arms, and conveyed the message to Mu Chongran regardless of dizziness.Although Mu Chongran couldn't communicate directly with Ji Xiaomeng, he could sense the message from Ji Xiaomeng.He looked up at several people: "Imperial Palace. Demon Cultivator."

An Ming was taken aback: "A demon cultivator? The one who took him away was a demon cultivator?"

Shangguanqing frowned: "It seems that the demons are hiding deeper than we thought, but it is better for demon cultivators to fool people in the mortal world and gain a certain status." After a pause, he seemed to suddenly think of something: "If there are Demon cultivator, if he wants to sneak into the palace directly to find Jun Qing, he will definitely alarm the other party. If this demon cultivator has any connection with the demon clan, we will be exposed soon. We must find a way to conceal our identity and enter the palace."

Mu Chongran thought for a while, and said: "Junior brother once told me that if necessary, you can find a person named Ye Quan. That's right! Junior brother also left the token with me."

Looking at the ring pendant in Mu Chongran's hand, Shangguanqing clicked his tongue: "This guy is too prescient."

After a few people discussed it, they went straight to the direction of the imperial city.

……

Royal Palace.

Above the main hall, a Taoist with white beard and hair and a kind appearance, but with a chilling look in his eyes stood below.Mo Shu, the new emperor of the Mo clan looked at him, and said after a long time: "Master Huayan has served my father for a long time, but my father has not had time to reward you. Today, I called you here, and I want to ask you What reward do you want?"

Hua Yan bowed slightly, and his hunched figure appeared even thinner and humbler: "It is Hua Yan's fortune to serve the late emperor and His Majesty, so I dare not ask for more."

Mo Shu laughed lightly, removed the look from his eyes, and said kindly: "How can this be so? The mage has worked hard for our Mo family, so naturally he should be rewarded. I have never appointed a national teacher in my dynasty, but the mage's magic power is boundless." , and worked for the emperor for a long time, I don't know if the mage is willing to accept the appointment?"

Hua Yan didn't raise his head, but bowed solemnly: "It's His Majesty's grace, I dare not refuse."

Mo Shulang laughed, and said, "Pass down the order, and immediately after the lantern festival, the Grand Master Conferment Ceremony will be held!"

In the altar.

Hua Yan changed back to the gray hooded cloak, bowed his knees to a man wearing a black mask, and said cautiously: "My lord, look at this man..."

The man was silent for a long time through the light curtain that showed Xiao Junqing's figure, and Fang said: "The emperor just said that he wants to canonize you as a national teacher?"

Hua Yan said: "That's what he said, the little emperor must have listened to the suggestions of those courtiers. From this point of view, the little emperor has nothing to fear."

The man snorted coldly, and said: "The little emperor is naturally nothing to be afraid of, but you have been unable to find out the person behind the little emperor. If you continue to delay, that person must be your biggest obstacle."

Hua Yan trembled all over, and said with fear and sincerity: "My lord taught me that I will order someone to investigate again. It's just... my lord... what should I do with this person?"

The man looked at the light curtain and said, "Did he break the soul-destroyer array?"

Hua Yan replied: "Yes. When I arrived, I only found his aura, and all the living souls were missing."

"This person has already cultivated at the golden core stage, so breaking your soul-absorbing formation will not be a problem. It's just that the living soul is missing, and there must be some magic weapon for gathering souls on him. Since the little emperor has decided to appoint you as the national teacher, recently So don't act on your own initiative, so as not to be discovered by others. This person's soul is pure, but he can be used by me alone, so you don't have to worry about the things here."

"Yes."

Hua Yan, who had exited the altar, looked at the huge iron gate, snorted coldly, and turned to leave.

The demons have never been loyal, only the weak eat the strong.

In the altar, Xiao Junqing sensed that someone had entered, so he sealed the weak aura between his eyebrows again.

A figure in black stepped into the altar, staring at him with fanaticism and greed.

It was just a long time, and the two of them didn't speak any words.It's just that the figure in black raised his hand lightly, and the flat altar ground suddenly cracked, and gullies appeared, each of which just extended to the stone pillar behind Xiao Junqing.

The man chuckled softly, "It's your honor to fall into my hands as a cultivator who is beyond his control."

A black liquid slowly flowed out of the strangely mottled ravine, slowly flowing towards Xiao Junqing, but Xiao Junqing found that he could not move at all.It was also at this time that solemnity appeared in the eyes that had always been indifferent, but there was no fear...

The man looked at him and laughed loudly: "Cultivator, for the sake of your pure and powerful soul, I will let you live for a few more days. Use your last life to experience the pain of this purgatory." !Ha ha……"

The black shadow disappeared in place, Xiao Junqing looked at the slowly approaching liquids, and found himself a little scared.The slowly flowing black liquid seemed to be slowly stretching towards his claws, carrying unknown fear.

Not long after, a mournful howl suddenly sounded in the empty hall...

……

They were very lucky, just after they entered the imperial city, they found out about the man named Yequan.

Yehua Building.

"Who are you? Why are you here?" The man wearing the black mask looked up at them with a burning gaze.

Mu Chongran raised his hand to show off the ring pendant in his hand, and said, "I have something to ask you for."

Ye Quan's eyes tightened, and he said, "Who gave you this ring?"

Mu Chongran smiled and said, "Of course it's the person you thought of."

Ye Quan was startled, then suddenly smiled and said, "Since he told you to bring this thing to find me, it must be difficult for you to ask for each other. However, for his sake, Ye Quan is willing to do his best."

Mu Chongran also stopped being polite, and went straight to the point: "We want to enter the palace."

Ye Quan thought for a moment, and said, "Is it to save people?"

Mu Chongran and Shangguanqing and the others looked at each other, and said, "How do you know, Your Excellency?"

Ye Quan smiled and said, "Although Hua Yan's demon way is good at magic, after all, this capital city is under my Ye Quan's control. Although it was silent, but after all, he brought back a living person. But... It may not be easy for you to save that person, Yequan can only help you by sending you to the palace."

Seeing the few people heaved a sigh of relief, Ye Quan said: "In a few days there will be a lantern festival in the capital, there are not a few people coming and going in and out of the palace these days. However, if you want to get Huayan's attention, you must get the emperor's attention." cooperation."

Shangguanqing raised his eyes and asked, "I don't know what you mean by your words?"

Ye Quan said: "Your Majesty's establishment of the National Teacher is a helpless move. If there are a few capable people, Ye Quan begs a few of them to help His Majesty."

Several people nodded upon hearing this.Mu Chongran clasped his fists and said, "Thank you for your help."

Ye Quan smiled slowly: "It should be me thanking a few of you. I'm afraid that the Mo family's royal family will depend on a few of them."

After finishing the greetings, they were about to leave when Ye Quan suddenly said, "Wait a minute."

Mu Chongran turned around and found that Ye Quan was looking at him and asked, "I wonder if he's alright?"

Mu Chongran was startled, and then realized: "This item was also handed over to me by someone else. If Mr. Ye wants to know the condition of the owner of the ring, we have to wait until we rescue him."

Ye Quan smiled helplessly: "Forget it, let it be. Please invite me, my people will arrange for you to enter the palace."

They entered the palace with envoys from all over the place.On the carriage, An Ming looked at Shangguan Qing and said, "We are also cultivators after all, it's shameful to go around like this."

Shangguanqing looked at him weakly and said: "The Mortal Realm has its own rules of survival. If you and I are exposed casually, it will not be a disaster? Besides, at this time, the demons are in the dark, and we don't know their movements." , let alone Junqing’s situation. Once something happens, I’m afraid it’s not something you and I can solve.”

Yin Lu, who hadn't spoken much all the way, suddenly said, "The imperial palace has demon energy, but it's very weak."

Qin Kong blinked and said, "It's not the one who took Senior Brother Xiao away."

Mu Chongran suddenly became nervous, Shangguanqing stopped Mu Chongran who wanted to do something, and said: "It seems that the demon cultivator has already served the demon clan."

An Ming also became a little nervous: "Isn't Junqing very dangerous?"

Shangguanqing looked thoughtfully at Ji Xiaomeng who was sitting on Mu Chongran's shoulder, and said, "He should be Junqing's spirit beast. If Junqing really has something to do, he shouldn't be unresponsive."

As a result, as soon as the words fell, Mu Chongran suddenly covered his chest, his face was frighteningly pale.Shangguanqing was shocked, his appearance at this time was exactly the same as when he realized Xiao Junqing was taken away.

An Ming quickly turned to him and asked, "What's wrong? What do you feel?"

Mu Chongran shook his head blankly, and said, "I don't know, I just feel flustered suddenly. It's much stronger than before."

Shangguanqing looked at Ji Xiaomeng, who was sitting on Mu Chongran's shoulder with two paws waving without any reaction, and rubbed between his brows weakly: "He didn't respond at all."

As if feeling that he was talking about him, Ji Xiaomeng looked up at everyone, blinked blankly, then lowered his head and continued playing with himself.Every move, like a child who doesn't know the world.

As the carriage got closer to the palace, Mu Chongran's expression became uglier.Yin Lu was afraid that something would happen to him, so he used spiritual energy to nourish his heart over and over again, but it didn't work.
