"A total of three hundred people are missing. Why has no one discovered it before?" Sheng Qi asked the royal family member sent by the Northern Tang Dynasty with an angry face.
Because of the special situation, even Sheng Qi had to bring people back.
Although his own strength is at the ninth level of the Immortal Realm, no matter whether he is a monk in the Xuan Realm or the Tianyuan Secret Realm, he knows that no matter how strong a military monk is, he cannot achieve the same level as a martial arts cultivator, sword cultivator, or even a Buddhist monk or a Taoist monk.
Like Xiu, he can kill powerful opponents of the same realm by himself, but he must rely on the concept group of "soldiers" to truly display his own strength.
In the Tianyuan Secret Realm, military monks with strong cultivation are able to exert greater strength with the help of fewer soldiers.
Of course, if there is a choice, then the more requirements for soldiers, the better.
There must be guards around Sheng Qi, but it is not the critical moment now. They are disguised as ordinary soldiers and hidden in the crowd. Naturally, others will not be ignorant and insist on digging out these guards.
"This...I don't know either."
This uncle of the current emperor of the Northern Tang Dynasty originally thought that his job as the representative of the dynasty was a fat job, but after he arrived, he found out that he was here to be the grandson and scapegoat. His whole mentality was already exploded.
, so the follow-up work processing and arrangements cannot be done so wholeheartedly, and they are all directly left to the people below to take responsibility. Anyway, even if something goes wrong, he can pass the blame.
But what he didn't expect was that whether it was Sheng Qi, the three elders of the Kunlun Sect, Lord Shenlei Daojun, Qingyu, Su Anran and others, they were all experienced and experienced people. Naturally, they were very aware of the actions and actions of the envoy from the Northern Tang Dynasty.
Thoughts. It was easy to talk about it when nothing happened before, but now that something has happened, it is impossible for him to shirk the blame, so he directly attacks him, regardless of his words of blaming the blame.
"You don't know anything, how are you responsible for coordinating these things?" Sheng Qi said with an angry look on his face, "Three hundred people just disappeared under our noses, if it hadn't been for the disciples of the Wenxiang Sect who discovered the smell of blood this time
If so, how many fewer people will be discovered by then?...Do you know what it means to have three hundred less monks in the sixth and seventh realms of immortality?"
The person who discovered the smell of blood this time was a disciple of the Wenxiang Sect.
Beiling Wenxiang Sect is not a big sect. According to the standard size of Tianyuan Secret Realm, this sect is barely even a medium-sized sect. But this sect has a very good reputation in Beiling.
status, just because the main practice of this sect can greatly
It greatly enhances the sense of perception and smell, which is very advantageous in finding spiritual plants, capturing monsters, etc. In addition, the Wenxiang Sect is not good at force and has no ambition to dominate, so the disciples trained by the Wenxiang Sect usually
Become a guest that other sects and aristocratic families are eager to invite.
Even Zhongzhou has heard about this unique sect in Beiling.
"The cultivation level of the sixth and seventh realm of the Immortal is enough to be transformed into the first-generation parasite by the Soul-Splitting Demonic Mountain Spider." Qingyu said slowly, "And the scale of three hundred people is not too much, not too much.
Quite a few. If we hadn't discovered it this time and waited for them to sneak into the city and cause chaos, then we would really have had a serious chaos break out."
"I can only be responsible for registration. These monks come from all over Beiling, some are fast and some are slow, so isn't it normal that I didn't notice this at first?" The person in charge of the Beitang royal family was still evading at this time.
"Furthermore...and this plan was led by you, the Taiyi Sect. Now that such a problem occurs, there is no reason why our Beitang royal family should be responsible, right? Don't you Taiyi Sect people not be responsible? This is your consideration
Isn’t it thoughtful?”
The expressions of Lord Shen Lei Taoist and the third elder of Kunlun Sect changed slightly.
They had met in private before and had guessed some problems. Tang Xin'an was also aware of these things, but what they didn't expect was that the person in charge of the Beitang royal family would be so stupid.
"Even if the Taiyi Sect is responsible for this, it's just because the plan was not thorough enough, but the one who really needs to review and take responsibility is your Northern Tang Dynasty." Sheng Qi shouted angrily, "The arrangement of the route is not clear enough, and the manpower rationing is not clear enough.
It was not clear enough, and there was no observation or guidance set up along the way, so it gave the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of it."
Sheng Qi is not stupid.
Not to mention him, Sheji Academy could not bear the charge of "endangering Tianyuan Continent", so when the other party opened his mouth, Sheng Qi had already realized that the person in charge of the Northern Tang Dynasty would probably drag himself into it.
He had to speak up and confirm his position in advance to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings and conflicts. After all, the last discussion actually ended on bad terms.
"It's meaningless to say this now." Although Qingyu didn't know why Sheng Qi's attitude changed so quickly, she didn't take it to heart. "The other party was able to sneak attack so unnoticed, and the battle ended very quickly.
So fast that we couldn’t react. It was obvious that the other party was well prepared...but luckily, they still exposed some clues."
Sheng Qi glanced at Qingyu.
During the last discussion, he knew that Qingyu was not incompetent, but her behavior was too surly and she did not take the lives of other monks and mortals into consideration at all. This indifferent style really made him, a Confucian disciple,
Somewhat difficult to accept - in the Tianyuan Secret Realm, although the Sheji Academy has created many doctrines, in essence they all consider themselves scholars, that is, Confucian monks.
This point is actually somewhat similar to the performance of Xuanjie - hundreds of schools of thought are called Confucian cultivators, which shows the status of the word "Confucianism" in the eyes of these monks. It's just that Xuanjie is because Baijiayuan and Zhuzi
Due to the division of the academy, monks under this system do not respect Confucianism as much as those in Tianyuan Secret Realm.
"They know our existence, and they also know that if the battle is delayed for too long, we will definitely receive a message asking for help, and they will be able to escape easily by then, so they did not attack the monks above the seventh realm of immortality..." Sheng
Qiye said, "I've looked through the list. Among the three hundred people, basically all of them are on the list.
A small part of the monks in the sixth realm of immortality are in the fifth realm, and only four or five are in the seventh realm. In addition, another thing they have in common is that the size and number of the teams of these monks who were attacked are all
There are less than twenty people, and there are even a few teams from the Seventh Immortal Realm, and the team size is only five to eight people."
"The opponent is short of manpower." Shen Lei Taojun immediately reacted, "They have a certain amount of manpower left in Feng'an Country, but these manpower are very small, so they are not enough to cause harm to large-scale teams. They can only choose small-scale teams to attack.
.”
"Could the Soul-Splitting Demonic Mountain Spider be hiding somewhere in Feng'an Country?" The third elder of the Kunlun Sect also proposed a new angle of thought.
"It's possible." Qingyu nodded, "The Soul-Splitting Demonic Mountain Spider is very large, and as its strength increases and its age increases, its size will only get bigger and bigger. So it is so huge.
With such a size, if it keeps moving, it is very easy to be discovered, so the possibility of lurking in Feng'an Country is very high."
"Do you have a way to find it?" Sheng Qi looked at Qingyu, "Feng'an Country's territory is not large. If we dig three feet into the ground..."
"It seems simple, but in fact it is not easy." Qingyu shook her head, "The Soul-Splitting Demonic Mountain Spider has an innate ability, which is to lurk. Through this ability, it can camouflage and hibernate to a large extent.
And once it enters the dormant state, unless we see it with our own eyes, it is impossible to determine its location through conventional means, because the Soul-Splitting Demon Mountain Spider in the dormant state is no different from a dead object."
Su Anran has already heard from Tang Xin'an that the Soul-Splitting Demon Mountain Spider has a very special ghost ability. This ability is reflected in its body, that is, it can enter a state of suspended animation, so that people mistakenly think that it is
A dead thing.
"It would be okay if it disguised itself as a mountain..."
There are many mountains in Beiling. With the huge size of the Soul-Splitting Demon Mountain Spider, once it enters Beiling, as long as it enters a state of dormant suspended animation and disguises itself as a mountain range, it is generally difficult to find traces of it. But Feng'an Country
The territory is very small, so if we only narrow down the search target to mountains, we still have a high chance of finding it.
The real difficulty is...
"I'm just afraid that if it doesn't disguise itself as a mountain range within the territory of Fengan Country, then we will be doing useless work. It can even be said that if it continues to lurk underground, it will be impossible for us on the surface to enter a state of dormant suspended animation.
You can't find it unless you happen to find its underground lair."
After hearing Qingyu's words, everyone fell into silence.
But just giving up this rare clue at the moment, Sheng Qi seemed quite unwilling: "Can we just watch them continue to sneak attacks?"
"At the beginning, they may not know our goals and plans, but now they have discovered our goals, so they must not be able to sit still." Su Anran suddenly said, "These three hundred people who were missing after the attack
The data for monks seems to be three months, but in fact it must have only been discovered within this one month. If it had been as long as three months, they must have started to take action against mortals and low-level monks by now."
"You think they won't attack mortals?"
"It's not that it won't happen, it will definitely happen, but they didn't expect that we wouldn't follow their rules before." Su Anran shook her head, "But they may think that we are bluffing.
The conclusion of the war between the dynasties is that there will definitely be several massacres to force us to take action."
"What do you want to say?" Sheng Qi suddenly raised his eyebrows, and his voice was somewhat solemn and frightened.
Lord Shenlei Taoist and the third elder of Kunlun Sect were a little confused, but they looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes - if Sheng Qi, the grand master of Sheji Academy, could show such a look, then
It's no longer a trivial matter.
Su Anran didn't speak, just stared into Sheng Qi's eyes.
"Are you crazy?!" Sheng Qi exclaimed, "I don't agree!"
"We have no choice." Qingyu said in a deep voice.
"Don't you Tianwai Immortals treat the people in this world as human beings?!" Sheng Qi roared angrily, and his aura erupted without concealment.
It was a bright golden brilliance.
As soon as the brilliance left the body, it turned into a burly and muscular warrior in golden armor.
This warrior was holding a long sword, with a majestic and angry look on his face. He actually assumed a fighting posture, with the blade pointed directly at Su Anran and Qingyu.
“Say it carefully if you have something to say!”
Lord Shenlei and the third elder of the Kunlun Sect exclaimed and immediately stepped forward to stop him: "There is no need to make such a fuss... Grandmaster Sheng, for the overall situation! For the overall situation!"
"Do you know what they are going to do?" Sheng Qinu pointed at Su Anran and Qingyu. The golden-armored warrior on his body also burst out with powerful momentum, and his features became clearer and more realistic, as if he was about to turn into a real
"people" in general.
As a military monk, when Sheng Qi's momentum exploded, the thousands of military disciples who stayed outside naturally sensed it immediately, so they immediately formed a formation outside. Their momentum was solid and powerful, and they continuously sent it towards Sheng Qi.
Coming over, in the blink of an eye, the aura emanating from Sheng Qi's body was actually slightly stronger than that of Shen Lei Taojun, almost reaching the level of Tang Xin'an.
The troops resonate!
"Grandmaster Shengda!" Lord Shenlei shouted angrily, "If you want to break out of internal strife at this moment, don't blame me for being ruthless."
"Oh, don't forget, they are immortals from outside the world, and you are the creatures of this world." A trace of sarcasm appeared on Sheng Qi's face, "Do you know what they want to do? They want to destroy the parasite of the Soul-breaking Mountain Spider.
Take action, and the price is to send away hundreds of thousands of mortals...and even...the tens of thousands of monks who haven't had time to enter the city yet!"
Lord Shenlei and the third elder of the Kunlun Sect were stunned for a moment, and then turned to look at Su Anran and Qingyu.
Su Anran did not speak.
To be honest, he was still a little confused because this approach was not in line with his character.
But Qingyu didn't have so many worries.
"I can't find that beast, and I want to end this disaster as soon as possible. Is it possible without paying the price? Do you think that just because of your murderous intention and hatred for it, the Soul-Splitting Demon Mountain Spider will die suddenly on its own?
"Don't be naive." Qingyu sneered, "Also, don't secretly change your concept... Our Taiyi sect will not bear the debt of mortal death, because it was destined to happen from the beginning. It's just that
It's just a little ahead of schedule now, after all, he is a good apprentice you taught."
Sheng Qi's face turned green and white, and everyone could hear the sound of his teeth gritted.
"I have also read the list. There are still about 5,000 people who have not arrived. We are not sure whether these people are safe at this time because we lack the means to check. So instead of letting these unstable factors enter the city
, it is better to keep them under centralized supervision and prevent them from contact with other people." Qingyu said slowly, "But there are some things that you and I both know, that is, once infected by parasitism, it is impossible to become a human again."
"If these people are fine, then everyone will be happy. If they really become parasites..." Qingyu shook her head, "How do you explain to the nearly 60,000 other monks in the city?"
"Report——"
At this moment, a long and shrill howl broke the atmosphere of everyone's confrontation.
