369. Temptation (2nd update 4k, please subscribe~)

Five days later, the Eastern Federation.

Ma En stood in front of the main entrance of an independent villa, raised his hand and pressed the doorbell.

After a while, rapid footsteps came from behind the door. Then Tang Xueluan opened the door and looked at the young man standing in front of his house with a curious expression:

"What's matter?"

What she was confused about was actually that Ma En came here to find her in person. They had been contacting and communicating with each other through mobile phones in the past few days.

Ma En asked:

"Do you still remember that Xiaoyao said that you could go see him first and then consider whether to agree to become a disciple?"

Tang Xueluan showed surprise:

"You want to see him?"

In fact, when he said that he still wanted to think about it, Tang Xueluan felt that Ma En would definitely agree in the end. But when Ma En said in person that he really wanted to see Xiaoyao, she still felt strong joy from the bottom of her heart.

Although it was not the method she originally imagined, Ma En still proved that her vision was correct. The investment can now be said to have basically paid back, and this seems to indicate that her future in politics will be smooth.

.

And this actually means that maybe she can indeed do what she wants to do, use sincere means to bribe these smart and powerful people and achieve a win-win situation with them.

Ma En nodded:

"Yes, I have thought about it carefully these days. In fact, what you and Mr. Zhao said are very reasonable. Although it is not good for the federation to do this, Shenxiao has said that reality is cruel. In addition to accepting it, I also

There is no other way.

"Since everything is like this, I think we can test Xiaoyao's meaning first."

Tang Xueluan said with joy:

"Wait a minute, I'll notify the federation and ask them to arrange for you to meet Xiaoyao."

As she spoke, she also took out a special mobile phone, and Ma En also watched her dial a certain number.

There was naturally a reason why he came here. As he said at the time, he had indeed chatted a lot with Tang Xueluan in the past few days.

After that conversation, Shenxiao's negotiations ended neatly, and the Federation did not try to ask her to give anything again. According to Tang Xueluan's information, this was because both parties knew that there was not much suspense in this matter.

Shenxiao showed a high level of understanding of this matter through repeated negotiations, preventing the Federation from deceiving him with any pretense.

When Tang Xueluan was talking to Ma En, he also hinted that he actually understood Ma En's "failure" quite well, because by then they all knew that Ma En might not be able to persuade Shen Xiao, and by the way,

I comforted him a few words.

About two days later, Tang Xueluan also received the news that the plan had been finalized. They planned to suppress Shenxiao's reality distortion index to 37% of the original through various existing and non-existent restriction devices, and force her to enter.

Undersea missions.

The time when she entered the bottom of the sea was not a secret to Tang Xueluan. Ma En successfully learned the specific date through insinuations. Obviously, the Federation did not highly suspect that this was his target as he feared most. After all,

As a former member of the Salvation League, it was quite reasonable for him to be curious.

It will be a month before Shenxiao fights against the Hai clan. During this period, the Federation will continue to repeatedly debug and inspect the equipment to suppress and control her. Although she voluntarily gave up resistance, the Federation is still worried that Shenxiao can find any way to escape.

Opportunities for bondage.

After confirming this, Ma En began to think about Xiaoyao. Although Xiaoyao may indeed have evil intentions, Zhao Guanwu's statement at the time was actually correct. This was indeed an opportunity that he could not miss.

But unlike what the old man said at the time, what he cared about was not the opportunity to advance to Level V, but anti-psychic metal.

Because something small happened during this period, that is, Ma En lost his memory of Cao Yan again. However, before the countermeasures he prepared took effect, the memory of Cao Yan quickly disappeared in him again.

It came to life again in my mind.

This incident not only made Ma En feel the power of Cao Yan's immortality, but also made him worry more about his memory problem. Now that the opportunity is in front of him, he should try to get feedback even if he takes risks.

Mind metal.

Because if he doesn't get the anti-psychic metal as soon as possible, there's no telling when the remaining power of the Unmemorable will be victorious again, and he doesn't know if the Unmemory itself can detect this anomaly, and if he does, will it be possible?

The solution may be to personally deal with this fish that slipped through the net.

At this time, he was not so comforted, and it was obvious that the Federation would not give him anti-psychic metal through normal channels, so now Xiaoyao Taoist was his only remaining option. Of course, Ma En did not really believe in Xiaoyao.

Even if Xiaoyao really wants to deal with himself, he will probably give the Federation Longevity Pill before he takes action, and he will also get the anti-psychic metal before then. Theoretically, he will not be too defensive about the anti-psychic metal he gets, because he can't

Think about how you can use it, and Xiaoyao itself is not good at the spiritual field.

In other words, there is actually a small possibility that he will run away after getting the sea-overturning scepter and the anti-psychic metal, and if Xiaoyao really wants to deal with himself, then he cannot stop just because he refuses to become a disciple.

I still have to run away, so I might as well try to see if I can cheat the anti-psychic metal before Xiaoyao takes action.

If Xiaoyao wants to deal with himself, then it would be a better choice to contact him on the bright side according to his ideas. After all, what is hidden in the dark is actually himself with the Abnormality Control Bureau and employees, and he can also identify it through the Control Bureau at all times.

If Xiaoyao is up to no good, he can use the containment room to check himself and the things Xiaoyao gave him, so that he can get information before he actually takes action.

If Xiaoyao really wanted to take action, he could use the control bureau to escape at any time.

So Ma En decided to slowly contact Xiaoyao and try to find out what he wanted to do. If possible, he would obtain the anti-psychic metal as quickly as possible in the process. He could also lower Xiaoyao's guard through lies and let him

Hand over the elixir early.

Of course, Qin Lan is actually monitoring him at all times in the control bureau to ensure that he can be teleported immediately when in danger.

"alright."

Tang Xueluan Jiang put down the phone, and then Ma En felt something behind him.

When he turned around, he saw the shadow standing behind him. At the same time, his eyes seemed to look past Ma En and Tang Xueluan to a corner in the room, but he immediately focused his eyes on Ma En again.

Then a gentle smile appeared on his body:

"Glad to see you changed your mind."

Mahn replied:

"I haven't made a complete decision yet, I'm just trying to follow Xiaoyao's words and see him with my own eyes for the time being.

"But you are right, who can resist the temptation of being promoted to Level V?"

Shadow quipped half-jokingly:

"Then I would like to congratulate you in advance on becoming my colleague."

Then he turned to look at Tang Xueluan:

"Then I'll take him away."

As he spoke, the shadow under the shadow quickly rushed towards Ma En, and then pulled him into the semi-spiritual dimension of the shadow. The surroundings around them instantly fell into deep darkness, and Ma En could still feel the surroundings.

The darkness is flowing.

After leaving Tang Xueluan, Shadow asked curiously:

"What made you change your mind? Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't want to say it."

Mahn replied:

"Aren't you very clear? The Federation has cut off my chance to obtain anti-psychic metal. They forced me to come here. I have discussed it repeatedly with Tang Xueluan in the past few days and know that you will never give me another chance.

"I have no choice, just like when I went to see Shenxiao."

Shadow curled his lips noncommittally, and then asked curiously:

"Why do you want anti-psychic metal? Are there any telepaths in this world who want to deal with you? But as long as your enemies are not the strongest psychic entities, I may be able to help you.

Provided you are willing to say it.

"Remember, I still owe you a favor."

Ma En shook his head slightly, and then said sincerely:

"You have no idea why I need it. If I could rely on you to solve the problems I'm facing, I would have spoken out long ago."

Shadow nodded:

"All right."

The moment these words fell, the surrounding darkness immediately faded away, and he appeared in the mist-shrouded bamboo forest.

The moment he and the shadow appeared, a confused sigh came from the bamboo forest.

After they waited in place for a few seconds, the surrounding mist began to surge in front of them, and began to rotate and shrink, and then slowly formed the Taoist Taoist Taoist Xianfeng Daogu, and he immediately exposed himself to Ma En

gentle smile:

"It seems you have some new ideas."

As he spoke, the surroundings were slowly enveloped by the mist drifting from a distance again.

Ma En nodded:

"That's right."

Seeing that they had established a dialogue, Shadow also said to them:

"Since I have brought Ma En to you, I will leave first. My body still has a lot of teleportation work to be responsible for."

After saying that, he wisely turned into a shadow and passed away, leaving Ma En and Xiaoyao here.

After the shadow left, Xiaoyao also said enthusiastically:

"Come with me, I'll show you where I live.

"I thought you would come back to me sooner or later, but I didn't expect it would be five days, but it's okay, it's the number of the five elements."

Ma En immediately opened his mouth and explained:

"I haven't completely made up my mind to agree to your request, but you said I could come here to see for myself..."

Taoist Xiaoyao nodded:

"I know that Shenxiao is not the only one who can predict the future. Although it is not my strong point, I do know how to do arithmetic. If you come here on the fifth day, it means that you have not made up your mind yet."

Ma En asked somewhat cautiously:

"You also predict the future?"

Xiaoyao said as he led Ma En towards his residence:

"This is why the Federation asked me to see the innate god and demon. Many practitioners are proficient in arithmetic and can vaguely predict the future, but they are completely incomparable to the Shenxiao you once followed. Even the most proficient in arithmetic

The monks could only seek good fortune and avoid misfortune.

"And where we are, arithmetic is a minor way. There is a saying among practitioners that arithmetic cannot save oneself. In fact, this is because this kind of magic can only be effective on people who are far weaker than oneself. It cannot be said that one's own strength is equivalent to that of arithmetic.

, so he cannot use it on himself.

"Only a few monks who are proficient in this way can avoid disasters, but in my opinion, it is just a minor way. If you want to learn, I can teach you, but there are only a few weirdos who can really occupy a place in this way.

"And arithmetic is only somewhat similar to the predictions of the innate gods and demons. Their essences are two completely different things."

Obviously Xiaoyao naturally brought up this topic on purpose, and Ma En could sense that he wanted to talk about topics that might interest him.

And Ma En also followed his words and asked:

"What are innate gods and demons?"

Xiaoyao smiled mysteriously:

"She is the innate gods and demons, the gods and demons who were born and raised by nature. These innate gods and demons are often unable to practice, because practice is to find the 'Tao' that belongs to oneself and the world, but these innate gods and demons are born with their own Tao, and

Also extremely weird.

"If this were not the case, we would not be able to establish heaven."

There is a lot of information in his words, but the most important thing is that innate gods and demons cannot practice cultivation, and it seems that this can be matched by reality warpers, which means Xiaoyao does not think that he is a reality warper.

Or maybe he wanted to think so.

"Sorry." Ma En said deliberately, "I actually don't understand it anymore."

Taoist Xiaoyao smiled and said:

"You are a smart person. Just write down what I say. You will understand it naturally after you listen to it more."

Ma En then asked:

"So if you want me to become your teacher."

Xiaoyao paused and then said:

"I'll tell you the truth. In fact, it's just because you have talent. Other reasons are not important compared to this. In fact, I don't care about Du Jin's death as much as I said in front of them. It's just that they don't understand at all.

Random nonsense.

"If a disciple makes a mistake, his elders will teach him a lesson, and it is not the turn of outsiders to take charge.

"Before Du Jin went in to fight you, I had actually calculated that there were some abnormalities, and that was actually his chance. If Du Jin could break through in the life-and-death fight with you, he would be able to achieve Nascent Soul, but if not...

"I will accept a new disciple."

These words gave Ma En a sense of déjà vu, but the shock was much weaker than hers.

Man said:

"In other words, you actually expected that I would kill Du Jin."

Xiaoyao shook his head slightly:

"No, I expected that Du Jin would seek his own death. After cultivating the golden elixir, he has a thousand years of life, and he still has seven hundred years to live, but in the end he killed you out of greed and fear. I

But I didn't force him.

"This is cultivation. If greed arises, inner demons will arise.

"It's like a demon coming."
