True Immortal of the Netherworld

The grand event of the princess of Qingtan Kingdom's martial arts competition to find a bride came to a perfect conclusion.

Prince Yu Yang of the Haori Kingdom and Princess Tan Muyu of the Qingtan Kingdom finally got married.

The wedding celebration of the two is scheduled for three months. After all, the marriage of the prince and the princess needs to be more grand and dignified. The entire Qingtan Kingdom was filled with a festive atmosphere as Princess Qingtan was about to get married.

In the imperial city of Qingtan Kingdom, the restaurant where green-clad boy Yu Yang and Princess Qingtan Tanmuyu used to go was booming.

"Shopkeeper, bring me a jar of green sandalwood wine. Let's drink good wine to celebrate good things."

"It turns out that the young man in green is actually the prince of the Haori Kingdom. I have noticed that he has an extraordinary appearance and a dignified appearance."

"If you have a good life, you will be a prince when you are born. A princess and a prince are a perfect match. I would be satisfied if I could marry Wang Xiaohua next door."

"Hehe. Doesn't the prince also drink this green sandalwood wine? Come and drink!"

...

At noon that day, an old man with a silver beard and white hair came into the store generously. The old man was wearing a gray satin robe, embellished with a number of sapphires, which sparkled like stars.

The old man in gray robe is energetic, his eyes are bright, and he naturally exudes a noble temperament without using words.

Behind the gray-robed old man were two young attendants wearing star-patterned brocade uniforms.

The shopkeeper is a businessman, and one can tell from a person's appearance and dress that he has a good status. He quickly led the waiter beside him to greet him.

"This distinguished guest, please come inside. This is the first time I see you coming to our store. You must have come from afar. The green sandalwood wine in my store is a tribute designated by the royal family. You are at the right place. If you like it, please Go sit in the private room on the second floor," the shopkeeper said with enthusiasm.

The old man in gray robe seemed not to be interested in the topic of the princess. He glanced around as if no one was watching, as if he was looking for someone.

At this time, an attendant next to the old man in gray robe came over and said seriously: "Shopkeeper, we are here to find someone."

As he spoke, he took out a portrait from his arms, pointed at the portrait and said, "Shopkeeper, have you seen the person in this portrait?"

The shopkeeper took a closer look and saw that the portrait was of a handsome young man in green, "Isn't this Prince Yu Yang of the Haori Kingdom who is getting married to Princess Qingtan?"

The shopkeeper was well-informed and saw that the other party was a stranger, so he didn't show his face.

The waiter at the side looked at it and recognized the person in the portrait, and immediately opened his mouth and said: "This person..."

Halfway through his words, the shopkeeper interrupted him and said, "We don't know this person. He has never been to our store." Then he secretly winked at the waiter.

The waiter said quickly: "This person has never been here before. He has never been here before."

"Hmph!" The guard snorted coldly and put away the portrait in his hand.

The old man in gray robe did not say a word from beginning to end, as if others were nothing in his eyes, and then turned around and left the restaurant with the two guards.

Looking at the three old men in gray robes disappearing outside the door, the shopkeeper winked, then dipped his finger in wine and wrote a line on the table.

"Quickly go out the back door, go around to the Tanxiang Pavilion on the back street, and tell us that trouble is coming."

It turns out that Princess Qingtan was afraid that what happened to the prince of March Kingdom would lead to investigation and revenge from March Kingdom. Therefore, I specifically asked the owner of this shop that if a stranger inquires about Yu Yang's whereabouts, please inform her in advance.

The waiter understood the words, nodded repeatedly, then turned and ran towards the back door.

Outside the door of the restaurant.

The old man in gray robe stood on the street with his hands behind his hands and looked around.

But his powerful consciousness instantly swallowed up the entire street like a tide. The faces of the hundreds of people on the street, regardless of gender, old or young, were all clearly seen in every detail.

The gray-robed old man's ability to understand the mysteries with his ears and eyes has reached its extreme.

The old man in gray robe looked at the crowd coming and going in front of him, shook his head slightly, and thought in his mind: "From the news I received before, the March Sword of the Prince of March Kingdom was broken near the capital of Qingtan Kingdom, but his memory He was wiped out. I saw in the Ball of Fate that the young man in green had a wine gourd hanging on his waist. He must be an alcoholic. Now, we have searched all the wine shops in the city, but we can't find it. he."

Thinking of this, the old man in gray robe spread his palms and his consciousness moved.

A white light flashed in his palm, and a strange insect with no face and only one mouth emerged. It was the life- usurping spiritual insect.

The old man in gray robe stared at the life- usurping spirit insect in his hand, secretly activating the secret technique, and star-like patterns appeared in his eyes.

After receiving the instruction, the life- usurping spirit insect began to bend and twist, spitting out golden threads. After a moment, a strange and twisted character was drawn in the palm of the gray-robed old man's hand.

The gray-robed old man's eyes lit up, and he seemed to understand the meaning. Then he clasped his palm and hid the life- usurping spirit insect again. He turned around and ordered the attendant beside him: "The young man in green has been to the wine shop behind us."

When the attendant heard this, a murderous intent suddenly appeared in his eyes, and then he whispered: "Master Xingguan, the shopkeeper just now is lying. He has seen the young man in green. I will go and capture him right now, and search him with You will know the art of soul.”

"It's not appropriate to do this. Be careful not to alert the snake. Go to the back door of this store to see if someone ran out to report the news. If you follow the clues, you can find the whereabouts of the young man in green." The old man in gray robe said wisely.

"Yes." After the waiter accepted the order, his figure turned into a shadow and disappeared. He was obviously a person with profound martial arts training.

The waiter walked out of the back door of the restaurant and checked the direction. Seeing no one around, he followed the shopkeeper's instructions and headed straight for the Tanxiang Pavilion on the back street.

Sandalwood Pavilion is a shop specializing in sandalwood products, and the boss behind it is Princess Qingtan herself. One is a hobby, and the other is having an extra secular identity to facilitate travel.

But the waiter didn't know that in the darkness behind him, a pair of snake-like eyes had been quietly following him. He was one of the attendants of the old man in gray robe.

...

The next day, in the Grand Palace of Qingtan Kingdom.

The king of Qingtan Kingdom, who was sitting on the throne, was looking at a round purple gold token in his hand.

The front of the purple gold token is engraved with the pattern of "Southern Gate", with a trace of brilliance exuding from the surface, and the back is engraved with the word "三".

"It is indeed a third-grade Nantian Order." King Qingtan frowned, "There is someone here. I'm here to invite you."

Not long after, the old man in gray robe who appeared in the restaurant before was led by the palace guards and entered the main hall of Qingtan Palace with his head held high.

The old man in gray robe came to the main hall and saw King Qingtan with no intention of saluting him.

When King Qingtan saw the gray-robed old man entering the door, he secretly scanned it with his spiritual consciousness, and was shocked, "This gray-robed old man's physical cultivation is far superior to mine, and he is also holding a third-grade Nantian Order. I didn’t receive any advance notice from Emperor Nantian’s envoy. Could it be that the person who came here is evil?”

Thinking of this, King Qingtan smiled and immediately stood up to greet him.

"It turns out that the third-grade Immortal Official of the Nantian Immortal Domain is visiting. Why didn't you send someone to inform him in advance so that we, the Qingtan Kingdom, could welcome him grandly?" King Qingtan said politely, cupping his fists.

The old man in gray robe slightly cupped his fists and returned the greeting: "I am the third-rank immortal official "Xingqi" of the Southern Heaven Immortal Domain. I have met King Qingtan."

"Come, please sit down."

Both parties sat down for an interview.

"May I ask what the Immortal Official is here for?" As he spoke, King Qingtan handed back the Nantian Token with both hands.

The gray-robed old man generously took the Nantian Token, and then said: "This time I came to the Qingtan Kingdom just to investigate a case that happened in the Qingtan Kingdom. Please make it convenient for the king."

"We, the Qingtan Kingdom, are part of the Nantian Immortal Domain. We are safe under the protection of the Nantian Emperor. Since the case happened in the Qingtan Kingdom, the Qingtan Kingdom should give its full assistance. I don't know what the case is, but it has alarmed the immortal officials. Your Excellency is here in person.”

The old man in gray robe simply said: "After investigation, the prince Yue Lanran of the March Kingdom and the prince Yu Yang of the Haori Kingdom had a private fight within the boundaries of the Qingtan Kingdom and destroyed the treasure of the March Sword given to the March Kingdom by the Emperor of Nantian. , which is a great disrespect to the supreme and noble Emperor Nan Tian. As a rule, if someone deliberately damages something given by Emperor Nan Tian, ​​the offender should be killed! But I just heard that the prince of Haori Kingdom should be killed. Yu Yang and the princess of Qingtan Kingdom are engaged. King, what do you think I should do?"

King Qingtan's face suddenly turned livid when he heard this.

Then he tried to squeeze out a smile and said: "I would like to ask Sir Immortal Official to be aware that my daughter and I have absolutely no knowledge of this matter, and there has never been any talk of cover-up. The Prince of Haori Kingdom, Yu Yang, did use the form of martial arts competition in the ring to attract a bride. I have won the marriage contract with my daughter. But if what you just said is true, just take this person away and interrogate him. If he did not do it intentionally, please be kind and convict him of negligence according to the law. ”

"So, the Prince of Haori Kingdom, Yu Yang, is in your palace?" The old man in gray robe said seriously with a cold look on his face.

"It's unfortunate. He was still there three days ago. Now he has left to return to Haori Kingdom to report back to his parents and prepare for his daughter's marriage. He will be able to return in about a month. If you can't wait, sir, you can Go directly to Haori Kingdom to find him," King Qingtan said.

"No need, if I don't see this person in a month. According to the rules of the Nantian Immortal Realm, King Bao, you and your daughter will be convicted of harboring the crime." The old man in gray robe said coldly.

After finishing his words, without waiting for King Qingtan's reply, the old man in gray robe stood up and walked away, then without looking back he said: "I am waiting for the good news from your lord the king."

King Qingtan looked at the gray-robed old man's leaving back, rubbing his hands constantly, as if his heart was on fire.

"What should we do? We have caused such trouble. Looking at the unkind appearance of this Immortal Official, if this matter is not handled properly, I am afraid it will bring disaster to the Qingtan Kingdom."

Three days later, in the main hall of Qingtan Kingdom's palace.

The King of Qingtan Kingdom and the Chief Assistant of Qingtan Kingdom were having a close conversation.

"According to reports from spies, many unidentified people have come to the capital in recent days. None of these people have been registered by the Capital Entry and Exit Department, and each of them seems to be in good health. There are about thirty people. They should They are all subordinates of this immortal official. With such a large number of people dispatched, it seems that they are determined to capture Yu Yang. There are various signs that this may not be a simple case of damaging a treasure given by the Emperor of Nantian. "The Chief Assistant of Qingtan Kingdom said.

King Qingtan frowned and nodded, not knowing what decision to make.

Seeing that King Qingtan was hesitant, the Chief Assistant said: "Your Majesty, if you lose your soldiers, you will save your commander."

King Qingtan thought for a moment, then said with an ugly face: "I'll leave this matter to you, don't let my precious daughter know."
