Chapter 457: Chapter 175: No, what does "Auntie" written on this portrait mean?
"Enough!" Hou Mountain stepped forward, pulling on that burly man, said to everyone from the Five Sects, "My brother is somewhat rude, please don’t mind him, we will leave the rest to you!"
Cao Zhengyang and the others nodded, although they were somewhat dissatisfied with the attitudes of the two Demon Kings, it was not appropriate to act out at this moment. They then each took their sect members back to the flying ship and departed.
After boarding the ship, they didn’t dare to delay and immediately took out the Imaging Stone to watch the footage.
But no matter how many times they watched it, they still couldn’t find any subtle clues.
"Let’s disperse first, and start the investigation with Canglan Mountain as the center!" After a brief consideration, Cao Zhengyang suggested.
Since there were no more battles between the Five Sects, and Hou Mountain had ordered that the demon beasts in this mountain range were not to obstruct them, the danger level of Canglan Mountain had greatly reduced now.
They decided to use the most straightforward method to conduct a search first, and then call in more people from their sects to search between cities and sects for people with similar large bellies, hoping to find something.
Facing Cao Zhengyang’s decision, Lei Wuji and Immortal Xuan You had no objections.
Suddenly—
At that moment, Immortal Xuan You suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, startling the two men.
"What’s going on?" Cao Zhengyang hurriedly asked.
Could it be that Sikong Yan had secretly done something to her?
In the face of their concern, Immortal Xuan You waved her hand repeatedly and said, "I’m fine, perhaps I made a mistake in recent cultivation. I just need some rest."
As she spoke, she forced a smile.
Then, she wiped the blood from her mouth and continued, "Then let’s proceed with Cao’s plan, I will arrange for people to handle it right away."
After finishing, Immortal Xuan You turned and hurried away.
The two men looked at each other, wondering if it was an old injury from the previous siege by Cangyan Daoist Palace that hadn’t healed yet?
Soon, Zhou Qing and others received orders to pair up for an investigation towards the east of Canglan Mountain.
"Senior Brother Zhou, can I go with you?" Lu Yaoyao ran over immediately, her big eyes looking expectantly at Zhou Qing.
Zhou Qing glanced at Yan Xiaohu, who was chatting intimately with Lei Luo, and helplessly smiled and nodded.
"Alright, wait for me!" Zhou Qing said and went to find Cao Zhengyang, making a copy of the Imaging Stone to examine the next day and see if there might be any discoveries.
Afterwards, Zhou Qing greeted Yan Xiaohu and left with Lu Yaoyao in a certain direction.
"Senior Brother Zhou, where are we going next?"
"After watching the footage, did you come up with a plan?"
"I knew you were the smartest. Yaoyao is stupid and couldn’t find any clues. Can you tell me a bit?"
......
Not long after leaving, Lu Yaoyao began chattering incessantly by Zhou Qing’s side.
This left Zhou Qing speechless, thinking how her personality was quite similar to that of the silver-haired woman.
In the eyes of outsiders, as a Core Disciple, she always appeared cold and aloof, rarely talking to others, even to people like Li Daoxuan.
After breaking through to the Nascent Soul, she became more graceful and elegant.
Especially after cultivating the Ice Purity Skills, her whole body seemed to be enveloped in a layer of transparent icy aura, making her even more cold.
Her every move exuded aloofness, naturally making her the secret crush of countless disciples in the Taiqing Sect. Many True Inheritors and Inner Sect Disciples were too nervous to speak in her presence.
But why does she talk so much when she’s with me?
"We all saw the same thing, nothing came out of it. Now, I’m more worried about something..." Zhou Qing looked ahead, suddenly showing a worried expression.
Lu Yaoyao was puzzled.
Zhou Qing analyzed, "That Fusang Lingkui is currently missing and hasn’t been refined yet. I don’t believe other Demon Kings wouldn’t be tempted."
After hearing this, Lu Yaoyao seemed to understand something.
"You mean, the two Demon Kings who appeared today might take advantage of the situation?"
Zhou Qing nodded.
Those two Divinity Transformation Realm Demon Kings appeared to vent Hou Mountain’s anger, but their real purpose was likely to investigate whether the Holy Medicine was truly lost.
Of course, he also did not doubt that if they couldn’t find the Spirit Medicine, they might unite and launch another beast tide against the Five Sects, gaining significant benefits.
It would just be for a different reason!
If they truly find the Holy Medicine, there would be three potential dangers.
First, the Demon Kings who might already be secretly watching them.
Killing to silence witnesses and taking the medicine back to refine it and increase their cultivation.
Whether Demon Race or Human Race, strength is ultimately what matters.
Such a great opportunity to enhance their strength wouldn’t be easily missed by those Demon Kings.
Second, would be Cangyan Daoist Palace and Phecda Sect, especially someone like Master Xuanji whose divination skills are quite eerie sometimes.
Everyone wished to use this opportunity to draw Hou Mountain and other Demon Kings over, preventing them from helping the rival side.
Third, would be Demon King Hou Mountain.
He hadn’t found it after a year of searching, so how come you found it just after helping him? This was quite intriguing.
Could it be intentional, and without refining, it was just to drag the Demon Race into the battle against the Five Sects?
If they couldn’t find it, although they could prove their innocence, an enraged Demon King would still act unpredictably.
Thus, it was a deadlock, or perhaps he was overthinking it.
Either way, it’s an undeniable fact that Demon King Hou Mountain is desperate to find the Holy Medicine he’s been cultivating for a thousand years.
