Originally, with Sister Lingyue able to take action, not to mention some ordinary demonic cultivators, even if Li Yezhu came in person, Xu Taiping would not be afraid.
But now that he has eight Demon Emperor Soul Seals on him, the immortal peach born from the Earth Fruit can only be used to cover the consumption when Fairy Lingyue, in her physical form, takes action. To suppress the backlash of the Soul Seals, it still has to be the Hidden Immortal Brew.
The problem is that his Hidden Immortal Brew is almost gone.
“I just calculated that the Hidden Immortal Brew you have left is only enough to suppress the Soul Seals for half a stick of incense.”
“But if you can borrow the power of the Lotus Pupil to deduce some of the arrangements of the demonic cultivators outside, and with the help of your current physical form, half a stick of incense is enough to kill all those demonic cultivators.”
Fairy Lingyue transmitted her plan to Xu Taiping through voice transmission.
When he heard the word “kill all” from Fairy Lingyue, Xu Taiping’s hairs all over his body stood up inexplicably.
He only felt that the killing intent in these two words was heavier than that of those demon generals when he first met them.
“However, before that, we have to use the corpse of the Yellow Dog Demon Seed to exchange for Gold Essence Coins from the master of the Pearl Legacy Building. If we can gather the materials for the Hidden Immortal Brew, that would be even better.”
Fairy Lingyue then added another sentence.
“Naturally.”
Xu Taiping replied through secret voice transmission.
“Wuyou… Young Master Wuyou!”
Just then, the voice of Shopkeeper Yang beside him sounded.
It could be seen that when he shouted at Xu Taiping, his face was full of fearful expression.
“How did the master of the building respond?”
Xu Taiping looked over in response to the gaze Shopkeeper Yang cast at him.
”The building owner, the building owner asked me to give this jade slip to you… He has something to ask you.”
The shopkeeper Yang, with a look of extreme fear on his face, carefully handed the sound-transmitting jade slip into Xu Taiping’s hands.
”Young Master Wuyou, forgive the old man for being so bold, but dare I ask if this Yellow Dog Demon Seed was really, really killed by you?”
Although the shopkeeper Yang only relayed Xu Taiping’s words to the owner of Yizhu Building verbatim, he still guessed something from the words of the owner of Yizhu Building.
”I was lucky that day.”
Xu Taiping took the jade slip and then nodded to the shopkeeper Yang.
Although Xu Taiping answered lightly, after getting the confirmation, both the shopkeeper Yang and Lu Bugong, who had been listening intently beside them, showed expressions of horror on their faces.
At the beginning, Lu Bugong only knew that there was a corpse of a demon seed on Xu Taiping, but he didn’t know that it was the famous Yellow Dog Demon Seed.
Later, he knew that it was the Yellow Dog Demon Seed, but it was only at this time that he learned that the Yellow Dog Demon Seed was actually killed by Xu Taiping.
”I am Zhang Wuyou, paying my respects to the owner of Yizhu Building.”
Under the gaze of the complicated eyes of the shopkeeper Yang and Lu Bugong, Xu Taiping picked up the jade slip and paid his respects to the owner of Yizhu Building on the other end of the jade slip.
”Zhang Wuyou, this isn’t your real name, is it?”
The somewhat cold voice of the owner of Yizhu Building Immediately sounded from the other end of the jade slip.
“Lord Building Owner is making fun of me.”
Xu Taiping prevaricated.
“Seeing that you are so calm, I guess you have already guessed that someone is using the name of assassinating me to lure you out?”
The Owner of the Pearl Building did not pursue Xu Taiping’s true identity but confirmed it with Xu Taiping.
“The Building Owner has discerning eyes. I have indeed guessed it.”
Xu Taiping nodded.
“I don’t care what grudges you have with those people outside. As long as you don’t cause trouble in my Pearl Building, I will pretend that I didn’t see anything.”
The Owner of the Pearl Building said in a cold voice.
“The Building Owner can rest assured. I can handle those people outside by myself and will never delay the business of your Pearl Building.”
Xu Taiping nodded, and then his gaze once again looked at the figure of Zhuang Mu in the virtual shadow cast by the spiritual mirror and said:
“However, please do not alarm the person behind this Zhuang Mu for the time being. Regarding everything in front of us, just pretend that nothing has happened and everything remains the same.”
……
The Pearl Building.
The top floor.
“He didn’t ask you for help but asked you to pretend that nothing had happened?”
In the study of the Owner of the Pearl Building, a voice came out from the spiritual mirror in front of him.
In that spiritual mirror, the figure of an old man with sunken eye sockets and a long face was currently manifested.
This old man was none other than the Great Elder of the Guangling Pavilion, a close friend of the Owner of the Pearl Building.
“Yes.”
In front of the spirit mirror, the Master of Yizhu Building took a sip of tea and then nodded.
“But he still sold the corpse of the Yellow Dog Demon Seed to me, only taking away one million gold essence coins and not asking me for anything else by taking advantage of this.”
The Master of Yizhu Building then added another sentence.
“Knowing that there are demonic cultivators lying in ambush outside, not only did he not ask you for help, but also walked out so swaggeringly that he didn’t even bother to hide. Where did this kid get the confidence to be so fearless?”
The Great Elder Lou in the spirit mirror reached out and rubbed the center of his brows, muttering in great confusion.
“Your littleYoung Master still doesn’t want to reveal the identity of this kid?”
The Master of Yizhu Building’s small mung bean eyes were half-closed, looking intently at another spirit mirror on the side.
In that spirit mirror, Xu Taiping, with a spirit monkey sitting on his shoulder, after putting away a great medicine just bought from the building, was quickly walking downstairs.
“That kid has a very tight mouth. Even when I gave him a good beating, he didn’t reveal a single word.”
Although the expression on the face of the Great Elder Lou was full of displeasure, there was a hint of appreciation in his tone of voice.
“This kid’s cultivation is not good and his talent is average, but his character is still passable.”
Although the Master of Yizhu Building also had a praise on his face when he said this, his tone also had a bit of appreciation.
“By the way, Old Lou, are we really going to stand by and do nothing this time?”
The Lord of Yizhu Building looked at the Great Elder Lou in the spiritual mirror.
The reason why he was so cold to Xu Taiping before was all because of the prior explanation of the Great Elder Lou of Guangling Pavilion. He wanted to test Xu Taiping to see if he could get his true identity out of him.
“Play it by ear. If it really doesn’t work, then I’ll have to ask you, Yizhu, to take action on my behalf. We can’t let the Shangqing cultivation world lose a hero with such cultivation talent for nothing.”
The Great Elder Lou of Guangling Pavilion frowned and said.
“Even if you don’t say it, Old Lou, I will do the same.”
The Lord of Yizhu Building shook his head and said.
“Huh?”
Just then, the Lord of Yizhu Building suddenly saw in the spiritual mirror that Xu Taiping, who had already walked to the door of the first floor of Yizhu Building, suddenly stopped.
“This kid, could it be that he regrets it and wants to ask you for help?”
The Great Elder Lou in the other spiritual mirror also saw this scene from his own spiritual mirror.
The Lord of Yizhu Building didn’t answer, but just quietly watched Xu Taiping in the spiritual mirror.
And at this time, Xu Taiping, who had just stopped in the spiritual mirror, was slowly turning around, and then looked through the spiritual mirror that was monitoring him and smiled at the Lord of Yizhu Building on this side of the spiritual mirror and said:
“Lord Building, I may have to borrow the hidden sword in your building later. I hope Lord Building will let me pass.”
The Great Elder Lou and the Master of Yizhu Building looked at each other.
Then, only to hear the Great Elder Lou say in a very confused way:
“It’s not to ask Brother Yizhu to take action, but to borrow the hidden sword in Brother Yizhu’s building. What on earth does this kid want to do?”
……
“Sister Lingyue, is it really okay just to say hello to the Master of Yizhu Building?”
At the entrance of Yizhu Building.
After Xu Taiping shouted to the Master of Yizhu Building from a distance, while leading Lu Bugong towards the street in front, he asked Fairy Lingyue very curiously.
“If it wasn’t for the sake of him selling you that 700-year-old Bu Jie Root at a cheap price, your sister here wouldn’t even bother to say hello to him.”
Fairy Lingyue said in a very doesn’t care about the manner.
Xu Taiping smiled awkwardly.
And just at this time, Bai Yu, who was standing on Xu Taiping’s shoulder, suddenly transmitted a voice to Xu Taiping and said:
“Taiping, there are quite a few powerful cultivators, sneaking towards you.”
With the Heavenly Eye Technique, Bai Yu could clearly see the situation several streets away, even through the houses.
“Okay.”
Xu Taiping nodded, pasted the storage ring in his left hand on the skin of his left eye, and then let the gold essence coins in the storage ring flow into the Lotus Pupil like a flowing stream.
At the same time, he transmitted a voice to Fairy Lingyue in his heart and said:
“Sister Lingyue, I’m going to open the Lotus Pupil.”
Immediately, the voice of Fairy Lingyue rang out in his mind —
“Taiping, I’m ready. You can open it.”
