Chapter 1549 He Xiao's Backhand
Although Emperor Jiuyou cleaned up the scene after killing Xue Zongwu and Qi Yunsheng, who dares to say that it was 100% traceless?
Others may not be able to discover it, but Bai Ziqi may not be able to.
Mirror muttered: "If you had received this information earlier, you could have made some arrangements in advance. Now..."
Now I don’t know if it’s too late.
Fifteen days, they missed the most precious fifteen days!
The mirror asks the core question: "How are you going to find him?"
How much did Bai Ziqi find out about Emperor Jiuyou?
Will he do anything bad to He Lingchuan?
But when Bai Ziqi walked on the vast golden plain, he was like invisible. Who could find out his path?
"If he goes to Yao Country, it will be difficult to deal with him."
He had been doing well in Tianshui City for several months, but when Bai Ziqi came, his old problems were exposed again, which was -
The foundation is not deep and there is no local influence.
If it was in Julu Port, Pengguo or even the Allied territory, He Lingchuan would have plenty of ways to conduct a reverse investigation on Bai Ziqi.
But in Yao State, this is a huge problem.
Talking about such a heavy topic, He Lingchuan stood up and stretched, his bones crackling, and at the same time changed the subject:
"But I think that Shiro is very busy. How can he come here so quickly?"
He said this calmly, effectively calming Mirror's emotions. Mirror also heard the subtext of his words: "Hmm? What do you mean?"
Isn't Bai Ziqi busy tracking down the Jiuyou Emperor?
"Luckily I had a trick up my sleeve." He Lingchuan murmured, "I wonder if Bai Ziqi jumped in?"
He was the one who built the Yangshan Islands from small to large, and he was also the one who turned around the situation in the Shining Gold Plains. It can be said that He Lingchuan is dealing with "people" all the time. Now he is in charge of tens of thousands of people, and is involved in cross-regional, multi-departmental, and multi-group cooperation.
Outsiders always think that once an organization is established and rules and regulations are formulated, it can run as precisely as a machine, without any mistakes, and resolutely implement the will of the leader.
And no matter what the problem is, it can be solved by just sneezing.
Naive.
The fact is that when an organization does things, there will always be unexpected oversights, inexplicable mistakes, all sorts of strange problems, and even a sudden big bomb that makes you see stars, your head buzzing, and doubt your life.
The more links there are, the more troubles you will encounter.
The more people involved, the greater the chance of error.
Any organization is run by people, and people are the most likely to slack off and make mistakes. The bigger the organization and the more diverse the personnel, the more difficult it is to coordinate and do a good job.
So much success or failure ultimately comes down to the individual.
Therefore, the most taboo in making plans is to make them fit perfectly. You must leave room for maneuver and ensure downward compatibility. This is the experience He Lingchuan summed up from his experience as a superior.
He had a backup plan, which was to dig a trap for the expected pursuer, called "diverting trouble away".
He Lingchuan stroked the medicine ape's head and said, "Good Lingguang, help me keep watch. Don't let anyone in."
"Yeah." Lingguang jumped out of the window and stood on the roof.
He Lingchuan closed the doors and windows before placing the soul-catching mirror against the wall.
"Open your mirror world."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a faint light on the wall, a door appeared out of nowhere, and the mirror disappeared.
He Lingchuan's mind moved, and black armor appeared out of thin air, covering his entire body.
He then took out the dragon head mask and put it on, and the gentle and kind Island Master He instantly turned into the majestic and mysterious Emperor Jiuyou.
The next second, he opened the door on the wall and stepped in.
Heat rushes to my face.
The space behind the door was a huge sky cave. The ground was black rock, but not far away there was a red light flowing, more brilliant than blood. Hot air gushed out from the soles of the feet, filled with the smell of sulfur.
This place is either purgatory or a crater.
He Lingchuan's voice came from under the mask: "Do you have to be so exaggerated?"
The Soul-Capture Mirror has been with him for many years, and he has consumed countless natural treasures, so the world in the mirror is no longer the same as it used to be. It can even open up a separate small space or world in the mirror for his temporary use.
This function is exactly what he needs right now.
The voice of the mirror sounded from all directions, unusually empty: "You are the Lord of the Netherworld, so you must be in Purgatory when you appear?"
Its owner needs a lavish display to match his status.
He Lingchuan sighed helplessly: "Where is it?"
"Right in front of you, next to the lava pool." The mirror kindly reminded him, "Don't be afraid, the lava won't burn you."
The temperature of the lava in the mirror world is also real, but it will not burn the owner of this world.
He Lingchuan walked forward and saw a wooden stick stuck next to the bubbling lava pool.
This staff is very old, and the body of the staff has been polished to a patina. The top of the staff is carved with a ferocious-looking human head, with eyes closed but a pair of big teeth exposed at the corners of its mouth.
He Lingchuan walked to the staff, lit seven incense sticks on it, and muttered a few words to himself.
The incense sticks straight up and the wind disappears.
Then, He Lingchuan took out a dragon-punishing pillar, opened the lid, and placed it under the head of the pillar.
A wisp of red smoke emerged from the pillar and flew outwards as if it had consciousness, as if it wanted to quickly move away from He Lingchuan and the wooden staff.
The first ray successfully flew away.
As the second ray of light came out, the head on the staff actually made a move:
It woke up as if from a dream, opened its mouth and took a deep breath, immediately sucking the red smoke into its mouth!
You can tell from its expression that it is enjoying it very much, just like eating a bowl of snow dumplings in the dog days of summer, or an old smoker who has quit smoking for three days enjoying a puff of chewing tobacco again.
A wisp of red smoke emerged from the Xinglong Pillar again and was immediately sucked away by it.
Zhang Shou was still reluctant to leave, but He Lingchuan tightened the lid and took a step back.
The head on the staff had opened its eyes and looked at He Lingchuan: "It's you again, Emperor Jiuyou! All the gods in the Shining Gold Plain are asking for news about you."
"Let's hurry up." The time limit for summoning the gods in this way is very short. "God Pu Yin, I heard that someone from the Heavenly Palace has been looking for you?"
Before Emperor Jiuyou left last time, he took away the wooden staff in front of the altar of Puin Temple.
This staff follows the god Puin to receive incense and has a deep connection with him, and can be used as a tool to initiate communication.
However, God Pu Yin usually cannot track the whereabouts of the incense stick, because He Lingchuan has kept it in the small world inside the soul-catching mirror, which is completely isolated from the outside world. It is only temporarily used as a transit point when He Lingchuan forcibly summons God Pu Yin.
Before and after the havoc in heaven, the soul-catching mirror could not do this.
It can be seen that Jingzi's extravagant diet in recent years is not right. His hard work and practice have also paid off.
"Oh?" Puin God was curious, "How did you know?"
Emperor Jiuyou suddenly summoned it, and God Pu Yin was also very surprised. His first reaction was to expand his divine consciousness and check the location here.
Eh, it can’t be located.
It only knows that this place is not like the human world.
"Where are you?" It looked around, but the human head could only turn to a limited extent, so it could only see the glowing red lava pool on the side. "Is this a small world?"
If I can summon it into the small world, this guy is really capable.
The Nine Nether Emperor chuckled in a frightening manner.
The intelligence from Julu Port said that Bai Ziqi was going to Shizhoutou and Liuping. Then the Yeshen Temple in Shizhoutou might be the focus of his visit. After all, Bayuan Township was right behind Shizhoutou, and Puyin God would probably know about any disturbance there.
Emperor Jiuyou spoke again:
"Have you told Bai Ziqi about the news about the Thousand Illusions True Man Formation?"
God Puin stared at the Dragon Pillar in his hand and said, "Take another breath."
He Lingchuan stepped forward and let him take another deep breath of nightmare air.
"Ah--I have said it all."
"Then?"
"He was very interested, asked in detail from beginning to end, and then left." Pu Yinshen looked at the black-armored man in front of him. The little secret of Qianhuan Zhenren was passed on to him by Jiuyou Emperor. Otherwise, how could he know everything that happened in Baimao Mountain hundreds of miles away?
"You didn't tell me the source of this secret?"
"Why are you saying this?" Pu Yinshen said lazily, "The news you gave me is not false. Bai Ziqi is also very interested. I will use it to exchange for a few dragon punishment pillars. Lingxu people will also have a chance to dig out Qianhuan Zhenren. Isn't this a win-win situation for everyone?"
It cannot let the God Realm know that Emperor Jiuyou had made a deal with it, otherwise there will be endless troubles.
Besides, both Emperor Jiuyou and Bai Ziqi were generous, so wouldn’t it be good for it to gain an extra Dragon Pillar from both ends?
"Are you still hiding in the God Realm?"
Pu Yinshen was annoyed: "How do you know?"
"There's a conflict between Kshatriya and Lingxu gods. You have the Dragon Punishment Pillar, but you don't want to be cannon fodder." Then you can only hide and live. "Any new information for me?"
"In about twenty days, the unprecedented Emperor's Slurry will erupt."
Emperor Jiuyou: "I already know this."
“That seems to be nothing, right?
"Why did the gods rob the immortal cave?"
"Needless to say?" Pu Yinshen said as a matter of course, "We have been enemies for thousands of years, so we should kill each other if we have a chance, right?"
"What else?" He Lingchuan always felt that the truth was not that simple.
God Puin shook his head:
"With the Dragon Punishment Pillar, killing an immortal can absorb a huge amount of nightmare energy!"
"anything else?"
"Gone."
He Lingchuan asked again: "It's gone, or you don't know either?"
"No more, no more."
Before Pu Yinshen could say more, He Lingchuan reached out and pulled out the incense sticks on the ground.
A small whirlwind suddenly blew up at the spot.
The incense went out, and the head on the staff closed its eyes again.
The dialogue between man and God ends here.
He Lingchuan looked around: "Where is the exit?"
"Inside the magma."
"..."
"I'm serious." Mirror said with a smile, "Next time the Nine Nether Emperor appears, how about rushing out from a lava gate? I can arrange it, and I can also spit fire behind you." Create a bunch of sound and light effects.
He Lingchuan ignored it and jumped straight into the lava.
As expected, his eyes flashed red and black, and he found himself back in the study.
The mirror spoke in his arms, but there was no response: "Hey, the last question, did the god Puin lie?"
"Even you can see it." Is there any need to ask?
