Chapter 124 The troubles of Lord Chengsi
"Brother Lu, what are those paintings?" Zhou Dao pointed to the carvings on the city wall and asked.
"Most of those paintings are ancient legends, and some are rubbings from Taoist temples. There is no way to verify them." Lu Xianyang replied.
Pingjiang City has a long history, and those paintings have been on it since the city was founded.
To this day, even the most prestigious old scholar in the city cannot explain its meaning.
"What's wrong?" Wang Xuanzhi turned around and asked.
"Nothing?" Zhou Dao shook his head and fell into deep thought.
…
Pingjiang City, Chengsi Mansion.
The crystal lamp swayed with long shadows, and the half-open door slowly opened.
"Lord Cheng Si, they are back, Li Shantao suffered..."
"I already know." Shang Tianzheng put down the letter in his hand and interrupted the report below.
He pinched his brows, narrowed his eyes slightly, and remained silent.
Xiao Nanfeng's expression froze. As one of the three commanders of Pingjiang City, he knew that whenever the City Secretary made such an action, it meant that he was encountering a problem.
"Lord City Secretary, Xiang Nang has been executed, so there won't be any trouble."
"Trouble?" Shang Tianhe sneered, "Do you believe this?"
"The human phase bag is something only found in Zhenmo Si's "Hundred Demons Illustration". It appears in the boundary of Pingjiang City. Do you think there is no shadow of Zhenmo Si behind it?" Shang Tianhe said coldly.
The Demon Suppression Division sounds like its name is the same as the Demon Control Division, a special agency of the imperial court.
In fact, it has nothing to do with the Monster Control Division or even the imperial court.
This is an extremely mysterious and powerful force.
It existed even before the Demon Control Division.
Everything about the Demon Suppression Division is top secret, and the outside world does not even know that such a thing exists.
For the Monster Control Division, the people who come out of there are even more fearful and difficult to deal with than the monsters.
The so-called "Illustrated Book of One Hundred Demons" is the undisclosed secret of the Demon-Suppressing Division.
It is said that there are one hundred kinds of monsters that do not exist in the world and their refining methods recorded on it.
Renxiangnang is one of them.
The presence of such a monster in the realm of Pingjiang City means that the masters of the Demon Suppression Division are also here.
This is what gives Shang Tianhe a headache.
"Have you found out who killed that man Xiang Nang?" Shang Tianhe asked in a deep voice.
The relevant information about the human phase bag is top secret, and others are not qualified to view it, but as a city secretary, he is well aware of the horror of this kind of monster.
Otherwise, the dignified commander would not have been carried back.
"I don't know, that man is extremely powerful and he killed him with just two moves." Xiao Nanfeng said solemnly.
Judging from what Lu Xianyang and others said, the person who took action was extremely powerful, far superior to the commander Li Shantao.
It's really incredible to kill someone before they arrive with just two killing moves.
"Blood gas turns into a spear, and the wind blows through the wind like ice and fire... This inner divine weaponry is called "Ice Fire Poison Dragon Spear", and it is the inheritance of the Paradise Sect." Shang Tianhe murmured softly.
The Paradise Sect is a rather ancient existence among Taoist sects, but it has been extinct for many years and has lost its incense.
According to records, there are three most famous inner-god war techniques in the Paradise Sect, namely "Ice Fire Poison Dragon Spear", "Great Sword of Paradise" and "Sage's Mahamudra".
There are no people in the world today who are proficient in these three inner divine arts of war.
"As for the fire pill..." Shang Tianhe's eyes narrowed slightly, with a solemn look flashing in his eyes.
"Check it out for me. We must find out who it is."
As a city commander, he needs to control everything. The presence of such a mysterious existence in his territory really makes him feel uneasy.
"I have already given the order..." Xiao Nanfeng knew Shang Tianhe's temper well, and he had already made arrangements before coming.
"Nanfeng, I must be too cautious. In fact, these are extraordinary times recently." Shang Tianhe sighed.
Some time ago, Li Zangfeng, one of the [Nine Divine Pillars], actually accepted a disciple, which caused an uproar among the upper echelons.
This matter may be known to the whole world.
But there are some things that people below don’t know.
Li Zangfeng was extremely domineering and had already set a quota for his disciples to participate in the [Yuanwang Dharma Assembly].
This is a breakthrough.
The King Yuan Dharma Assembly is very important, and its quota has already been divided among all parties.
Now that we have to forcefully squeeze out a quota, someone must give it up.
The involvement is huge, involving all parties, and it’s complicated.
Now all parties are refusing to give in and want to find out this mysterious disciple of Li Zangfeng. It would be best if they could solve it once and for all.
However, this is not very realistic.
Who is Li Zangfeng?
If he doesn't say it, no one can force him.
Since he asked for this spot, no one can make him spit it out.
Nowadays, various forces are competing, and the undercurrent of internal fighting continues, and it has already affected Shang Tianhe.
If at this critical moment, there will be another trouble in Pingjiang City.
Shang Tianhe's official career ended here.
"Official career..."
Shang Tianhe rubbed his eyebrows. At his age, he still wanted to work hard and jump up.
"Let Wang Xuanzhi and others be settled first, and let me think about it again."
"Yes!" Xiao Nanfeng bowed and retreated.
…
Pingjiang City.
In the dark underground chamber, the stark bones formed an altar, and there was a small copper tripod on the top, which was pitch black and deep.
There were nine crimson candles burning around him, and strong blood energy rose from the candle flames and submerged into the copper cauldron.
"Damn it, you actually killed my man, Xiang Nang." Black-robed Taoist Lu Yinshan roared sternly.
The human phase bag was refined by him personally, and he spent countless efforts and efforts on it, and it was almost connected by blood.
Originally, he planned to reverse the method of refining demons, pick the fruits, and devour them all to increase his own power once the human phase bag reached the [Ten Thousand Phases] state.
For this reason, Luyinshan traveled around the country, capturing living people to refine demons, but now his success fell short.
"Dead?" Yuan Shaoqing's face turned a little ugly when he heard this.
These days, his cultivation has improved by leaps and bounds after taking the [Ren Yuan Great Pill]. Now that he does not have the [Ren Xiang Bag], he can no longer cultivate pills.
Originally, Yuan Shaoqing wanted to succeed in his cultivation, so he took Luyinshan with him to Ping'an Town to settle old accounts.
Now it's delayed again.
"Who did this?" Yuan Shaoqing gritted his teeth.
"I don't know." Luyinshan said coldly, "But I feel that that person has already entered Pingjiang City."
He was connected by blood to Ren Xiangnang, and although the latter died, the ray of resentment before his death clung to the person who killed him.
"Could he be a master of the Demon Control Division?" Yuan Shaoqing's heart skipped a beat.
If it was really the Demon Control Division who took action, it would be troublesome, and he would have no choice but to settle the matter.
"Huh, no matter who it is, they will die." Luyinshan showed a cruel smile and his eyes fell on the small bronze tripod.
"Don't forget, this is Pingjiang City." Yuan Shaoqing reminded.
He knew very well that the Taoist in front of him was much crazier than him.
"So what? When my [Tiger Fetus] is completed, what will Pingjiang City mean?" Lu Yinshan sneered.
He is proficient in the art of refining demons, and the demons he refines are all from the "Illustrated Book of One Hundred Demons".
Human Xiangnang is only ranked 93rd in the "Illustrated Book of Hundred Demons".
However, [Tiger Fetus] is ranked 69th, and the gap between the two is incalculable.
Once he masters [Tiger Fetus], he will truly have nothing to worry about.
Chapter completed!
