The sixth volume of the dance of demons 1416 Sword Intent
"Elder Yupo, I didn't expect that the Demon Abyss Secret Realm and his team would be a blessing in disguise for you to break through the bottleneck. Now that your strength has greatly improved, it is really gratifying." Huangfu Zhantian glanced at the masked woman beside him and said with a smile.
"It was just a lucky break." Huangfu Yupo's tone was rather cold.
Huangfu Zhantian smiled faintly and didn't care about Huangfu Yupo's attitude.
"By the way, I wonder how Princess Ying is doing lately? This time we were able to successfully form an alliance with the three major families, but it was thanks to Princess Ying's water mirror technique." Huangfu Zhantian said as if pointing to something.
"Thanks to Elder Zhantian's concern. Ying'er has made great achievements this time. Fortunately, the Demon Emperor gave her two soul-washing pills. Now she has been practicing hard in seclusion at my place. I believe it won't be long before her cultivation will be further improved.
Even breaking through to the late stage of celestial phenomena is not impossible." Huangfu Yupo said calmly.
Huangfu Zhantian's eyes flashed when he heard this, and he nodded calmly.
Next, the two chatted casually for a few more words, quickly walked out of the corridor, said goodbye to each other, and left.
Huangfu Zhantian saw the outline of Huangfu Yupo's figure gradually blurring until it disappeared, his eyes flickering slightly.
On that day, in order to ensure a smooth trip to the Demon Abyss, the Central Dynasty sent three great sages to Hanzhou together. Although Huangfu Zhantian did not enter the Secret Realm of the Demon Abyss, he stayed outside the entrance to the secret realm.
He has also heard about the things in the Demonic Abyss Secret Realm from Huangfu Yupo and Zhao Qianying, and he even knows a little about the situation in the Demonic Abyss Tower.
With his keen sense of smell, he could vaguely feel that Zhao Qianying and Huangfu Yupo seemed to have concealed some of the contents, but Huangfu Yong did not seem to have the intention to ask further questions.
Huangfu Zhantian stood there and pondered for a moment, seeming to be thinking about something.
In addition to contacting the three major families, there are more important things to do in this tribute hall. It can be said that it involves the foundation of the Central Dynasty.
When he thought of this, he shook his head, turned around and walked away.
…
Huangfu Yupo bid farewell to Huangfu Zhantianhou. He walked around in a familiar manner in the palace, and soon arrived outside a secluded hall.
She stood in front of a simple stone door, stretched out her hand and patted the stone wall next to it a few times, and the stone door slowly moved away.
Behind the stone door is a door of purple light, which leads to nowhere.
Huangfu Yupo stepped into the light door, and the scenery in front of him suddenly transformed and appeared in a wide space.
The space here has undulating hills and mountains, and it is extremely wide as far as the eye can see.
The space is filled with lavender light everywhere, and pieces of lavender auspicious clouds are suspended in the mid-air, as if in a dreamland.
Huangfu Jade Soul flew away, and after a few breaths, he arrived above a lake.
In a small suspended pavilion in the center of the lake, Zhao Qianying is sitting cross-legged, surrounded by purple light, and from time to time there is light flowing like water waves, as if she is practicing some kind of secret technique.
When Huangfu Yupo saw this, the corner of his mouth curled up slightly, and he quietly floated down in front of the small pavilion without causing the slightest disturbance.
However, Zhao Qianying still sensed something and opened her eyes.
"Master." Seeing Huangfu Yupo, Zhao Qianying showed a smile and stood up quickly.
"Ying'er, your spiritual sense has become more and more acute, and you can actually sense me. It seems that your cultivation has improved a lot in these days." Huangfu Yupo said with a happy face.
"Thank you, Master, for your good teaching." Zhao Qianying smiled, stood up, and took Huangfu Yupo's hand.
Huangfu Yupo stretched out his hand and gently stroked Zhao Qianying's hair, a look of kindness flashed in his eyes.
"By the way, I have something to tell you." Huangfu Yupo suddenly remembered something and said.
"Master, please tell me something." Zhao Qianying was startled.
"Silly boy, have you forgotten the date? In three days' time, the day of tribute will be paid once in a hundred years. That boy Liu Ming has already arrived in the imperial city." A smile appeared on Huangfu Yupo's face.
Zhao Qianying's eyes lit up, but then she snorted softly, curled her lips and said:
"What does it have to do with that romantic and unlucky man coming here?"
"Silly Ying'er, judging from my experience as a teacher, Liu Ming is definitely not a romantic and unlucky person. On the contrary, if he was really such a person, he would not even be able to cover it up, and he would not do it in front of you and me.
To tell this matter so openly." Huangfu Yupo said with a hint of a smile but not a smile.
When Zhao Qianying heard this, her beautiful eyes flickered, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
"Speaking of which, with Liu Ming's ability, it's normal to have a few confidantes. If he doesn't have some charm, how can he attract our Ying'er's attention?" Huangfu Yupo saw the expression on Zhao Qianying's face and chuckled.
"Bah, who said I like him!" Zhao Qianying blushed and spat.
"Ying'er, don't be petty. This Liu Ming is a rare good match. Moreover, you asked me to conceal the matter between you and Liu Ming. The Demon King still doesn't know about it. A few days ago, the Demon Emperor
Lord Huang has mentioned to me that he wants to choose a marriage for you, don't you plan to marry someone else?" Huangfu Yupo asked with a solemn expression.
"No!" Zhao Qianying's face changed when she heard this, and she blurted out.
"Okay, you and Liu Ming can no longer hide the matter from the Demon Emperor. I will find a suitable time tomorrow to mention this matter to the Demon Emperor. Then I will have a good meeting with Liu Ming. Even if you
We have no intention of practicing together for the time being, so we have to decide this in advance." Huangfu Yupo said calmly.
Zhao Qianying's beautiful eyes flashed with strange color, but she said nothing.
…
At the same time, Liu Ming also left Zhenxin Garden and walked around the imperial city.
From the jade slip given by the city gate guard, we learned that the hierarchy of the Central Imperial City was quite strict. The higher the level of demons, the closer they lived to the inner city.
Naturally, the shops are more upscale the closer they are to the depths of the imperial city. Large-scale chambers of commerce and well-established shops are also concentrated in the second city district. As for the third city district, it is where the Huangfu family lives, but no chamber of commerce dares to open their shops.
It's open there.
Zhenxinyuan is relatively remote in the Second City District, but with Liu Ming's footsteps, it didn't take long to reach a bustling street.
At this moment, there are countless generations of family members gathered in this second city, and the streets more than ten feet wide are also bustling with people, making it seem quite crowded.
The shops on both sides of the street each looked very spacious and grand, much more prosperous than any city Liu Ming had ever seen before.
Liu Ming restrained his aura from the Celestial Realm and walked aimlessly on the street, occasionally walking into one or two shops to take a look around.
Although the Central Imperial City is known as the largest city in the Ten Thousand Demons Continent, it is not easy to find one or two things that are useful to you when your cultivation level reaches the level of Liu Ming.
After Liu Ming walked around for a long time, he only found a few spiritual herbs and materials that were of some use to him in one or two large shops, which made him quite disappointed.
It's no wonder that things that can be useful to late-stage Celestial Demons like Liu Ming can be regarded as treasures among treasures. Even if they occasionally leak out, they will be placed at auctions or some black markets, and are rarely placed on the market.
In the shop on the bright side.
However, he was not without gains. During this period, he intentionally or unintentionally obtained some useful information. For example, some large merchants planned to take advantage of this moment when countless aristocratic families gathered in the Central Imperial City to hold some auctions and exchange meetings.
He has made it clear that three auctions will be held in the next two days and plans to go and take a look.
Time flies, the sky gradually darkens, and bright lights appear on both sides of the street, dazzlingly shining.
Liu Ming wandered around for half a day. He was almost done with his fun and was about to go back home.
At this moment, he raised his eyebrows and looked at an inconspicuous shop on the street, which seemed to sell magic weapons and other items.
The shop's facade is only two or three feet wide, which is considered a relatively small shop in this area. There were no people inside at this time.
Liu Ming frowned slightly, a look of doubt flashed in his eyes, and stepped in.
This shop doesn't look big, but it's very clean inside. There are rows of shelves with shining swords, axes and other weapons, all covered with restrictions.
The owner of the shop was a middle-aged man in a white robe, who was in the early stage of true elixir cultivation. When he saw Liu Ming coming in, he hurriedly greeted him.
"Dear guest, do you need to buy some magic treasure? Our store has a special master of refining it. If you need it, we can also customize it according to your requirements." It is not easy for the store owner to open a store here.
It was obvious at a glance that Liu Ming was not weak in cultivation, so his tone was very humble.
"I just want to take a look around." Liu Ming said calmly, walking past the shelves in the store and looking around.
"Okay, take your time and take a look." There was a hint of disappointment in the shopkeeper's eyes, but he still followed Liu Ming and said with an apologetic smile.
Liu Ming ignored him and walked casually through the store, looking around constantly with a trace of doubt in his eyes.
Just now, he felt a wisp of extremely pure sword intent coming from the shop.
The sword intent was so pure that it was still vaguely on Liu Ming's sword pill. In the Ten Thousand Demons Continent, there were always very few demons who used the flying sword magic weapon. This naturally aroused Liu Ming's interest.
However, as soon as he stepped into the store, the sword intent disappeared without a trace.
After a while, Liu Ming suddenly stopped and his eyes fell on a separate shelf, on which lay a green flying sword.
This sword is about a foot long, with a shimmering light on its surface, and extremely small scale-like patterns appearing on the blade, which is quite extraordinary.
"Your Excellency, you really have a good eye. This flying sword is called the Seven Evil Wind Spirit Sword. It is made from the wing bones of a wind spirit demon bird in the celestial realm. It was then tempered in the Nine Heavens Gang Wind for decades before it was refined.
It is the treasure of our store and only costs two million magic crystals." The store owner enthusiastically introduced it to Liu Ming.
Liu Ming glanced at it for a few times, nodded, and looked away.
The shop owner also had sharp eyes, knowing that Liu Ming was not dissatisfied with the price, but did not like the flying sword, so he quickly introduced several better magic weapons in the shop to Liu Ming one by one.
As a result, Liu Ming showed a noncommittal expression, and then continued to walk around the store.
