The zodiac signs left the main hall one after another. Bai Mengjin sat alone for a while, raised the corner of his mouth and smiled softly, got up and returned to the back hall.
"Your Majesty." Hua Ruzhuo stepped forward and saluted, "The water is ready, you can take a bath."
Bai Mengjin said "Huh" and stepped into the side hall.
The side hall is not big, and there is a pool in the middle with gray mist rolling in it.
She took off her clothes, walked in step by step, and was submerged in the mist.
The mist seemed to be alive, rolling and tumbling, completely covering the water surface.
Hua Ruzhuo bowed his head and saluted, then went out to guard the door.
As the mist evaporated, the magic pattern on Bai Mengjin's neck appeared for a while, then disappeared without a trace, constantly changing.
At some point, there were two more people in the side hall.
They watched quietly for a while, and one of them sighed: "This Demon Lord is really not something ordinary people can do. How many people can withstand practicing with water boiled with Wangchuan grass!"
The King of Medicine leaned against the low cabinet in the corner and replied quietly: "You also said that she is now the Demon Lord."
Hu Erniang suddenly remembered something and said with a smile: "I remember you said a joke before, telling this girl to set up her own business and unify the demonic path as a demon king, and we will be her team. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a prophecy."
Medicine King also laughed: "You are too flattering. The Demon Lord is indeed the Demon Lord. What kind of team are we?"
"That's true." Hu Erniang paused and then said, "Senior Wu Nian is hiding out of sight. He has a grudge in his heart!"
"After all, he is from an orthodox immortal sect and cannot compare to us." Yao Wang said in a calm tone.
Hu Erniang glanced at her and asked with a smile: "Speaking of which, what are your plans for the future? After all these years of Wen Yang, your soul has almost recovered, right?"
Medicine King said casually: "I've always been a casual person. When I got tired of staying in the palace, I went to travel around the world. I was too lazy to leave and started a sect on the spot. If I don't want to be a ghost cultivator in the future, it's not too late to reincarnate."
At this point, she glanced over: "But you, originally for the sake of your daughter, now you know that she is probably reincarnated, do you still want to stay?"
Hu Erniang raised her gaze, looked at the bathing pool, and said quietly: "We have been together for sixty or seventy years, and it seems like we have raised a daughter again. I can't feel relieved if we leave like this."
Medicine King nodded: "Although I haven't been as long as you, but in total, it only takes this long to raise a disciple."
The two were speechless for a moment, until a sound of water came from the bath, and they both turned into light smoke and floated back to the parasol placed next to them.
When Bai Mengjin stepped out of the bath, the magic marks on his body were instantly covered up, and his clothes flew back to put on.
When passing by the parasol, she lowered her eyes for a moment and then walked away.
------------------
When Ling Bufei arrived, Ziyun Palace was already crowded with people, and everything that was supposed to come had almost arrived.
Ning Yanzhi was sitting in the middle. He was wearing the Taoist priest's uniform and his face was expressionless. The immortals around him were talking enthusiastically, but he was the only one who was out of place like the cold moon in the mountains.
In recent years, Ling Bufei had not seen him much. They were too young, and in order to secure their positions and achieve their goals, they were both frantically improving their cultivation. Even if they happened to meet, they would be speechless.
——No, they care about the same thing. In fact, they have a lot to say, but they all know that they have different positions. If they talk too much, they may not be able to maintain the superficial peace. The Immortal Alliance cannot withstand any turmoil and can only avoid it.
this topic.
"Sect Master Ling is here!"
Hearing the call-call from the chief, the hall was quiet for a moment, and everyone looked towards the door.
Ling Bufei looked calm and led Ying Shaoguang, Ji Xingge and others in.
"Sect Master Ling, long time no see."
"Long years no see, Master Ling has made great progress!"
"It turns out that Sect Leader Ling is out of seclusion, congratulations."
The Immortal Lords in charge stood up one after another to salute and exchange polite greetings.
Ling Bufei responded with a smile: "Master Fan, I haven't seen you in a few years. How are you?"
"Master Xu, you are in great spirits, but your injuries are greatly healed?"
"Guan Jianjun, I see that your sword power is stronger. I think your swordsmanship has improved a lot. Please give me some advice when you have time."
He was very at ease, neither overly enthusiastic nor cold, and took good care of everyone.
Ji Xingge was dumbfounded and whispered from behind: "When did this kid practice superficial skills? He talks to people and talks to ghosts."
Ying Shaoguang twitched the corners of his lips and whispered back: "He already knows how to do it, but you underestimate him too much."
Ji Xingge couldn't help but reflect. She was slightly older than Ling Bufei by two years, and she had seen him suffer from severe vein problems since she was a child. She always thought of him as a pitiful young man who didn't understand the world. Now thinking about it, maybe she was wrong from the beginning. He might
Sometimes weak, but never pitiful.
Ling Bufei walked all the way to the table. Ning Yanzhi stood up and the two of them greeted each other.
"Headmaster Ning came so early. I thought you wouldn't come so quickly because you are busy with family affairs."
Ning Yanzhi said calmly: "Underworld is related to the great cause of eliminating demons, so it is naturally the first priority. Sect Leader Ling, I thought you were most concerned about this matter, but I didn't expect you to be so unhurried."
Here comes the smell of gunpowder.
The Immortal Lords in charge were refreshed, and their eyes returned to the two young Immortal Sect leaders.
Ling Bufei was not angry at all, and said with a smile: "As Master Ning said, this matter is related to the great cause of exterminating demons, so I naturally have to be prepared."
Ning Yanzhi stared at him for a while, and finally raised the corner of his mouth, showing a fleeting smile, then turned back with a straight face, sat back and said: "Since Sect Leader Ling is here, let's start discussing things!"
…
Huo Chongxiao was a step late, and it was almost over when he arrived at the meeting hall.
He watched the immortal monarchs walk out of the meeting hall and nodded in greeting one by one. When Ling Bufei arrived, he said a few words and saw Ning Yanzhi coming out.
He smiled apologetically, and Ling Bufei felt relieved and walked away from him.
Huo Chongxiao felt sad in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on his face. He walked over and called: "Senior brother."
Ning Yanzhi walked out side by side with him and said, "I have never prohibited you from interacting with Sect Master Ling, so there is no need to be so careful."
Huo Chongxiao replied: "I know senior brother won't be offended, but now I am senior brother's arm, and every word and deed represents your attitude. If you interact with Sect Master Ling a lot, it will inevitably make others think too much, so it is better to avoid suspicion.
"
After a pause, he smiled again and said: "Besides, junior sister has to maintain the private friendship without delay."
Ning Yanzhi nodded: "Junior Sister Yue was thanks to them for taking me in. If you want to repay this favor, you can slowly look for opportunities. However, one code must be the same, and we cannot give in on the Demon Lord's matter."
"Yes." Huo Chongxiao agreed without any qualms. Seeing the two of them entering the courtyard and all irrelevant people being isolated by the formation, he finally asked the topic, "Did today's meeting go smoothly? Has Sect Master Ling agreed to attack Huangquan?
?”
Ning Yanzhi nodded: "Ling Bufei is very easy to talk to. He answered everything we asked."
"Then..." Huo Chongxiao looked at his senior brother's face and didn't know why he looked so solemn.
Ning Yanzhi continued the second half of the sentence: "But I feel that he is acting against his will. You should keep an eye on them these days and report any movement immediately."
