After listening to Dongfang Yuejian’s account, Xu Taiping frowned and said:
”Why are these people in such a hurry?”
Under normal circumstances, even if the reward in the battle merit book is extremely generous it should at least wait for a month or two, and go there after investigating and preparing fully.
Dongfang Yuejian seemed to have guessed the confusion in Xu Taiping’s heart, and immediately transmitted a voice to Xu Taiping to explain:
”Brother Taiping, you have had an epiphany under the spirit bone tablet this time, and nearly a month has passed.”
”One battle viewing day has passed.”
Xu Taiping’s heart moved, and he opened his eyes and looked at the spirit bone tablet in front of him and said:
”It has actually been a month?”
However, upon careful thought, the cultivation methods and supernatural powers enhanced by the Spiritual Bone Tablet this time contain cultivation formulas that can be simply described as vast and numerous. It indeed takes a lot of time to read them completely once.
With such thoughts in mind, Xu Taiping immediately stood up and continued to transmit his voice to Dongfang Yuejian:
“Which three families are imprisoned this time?”
And just as Xu Taiping asked this question, the figure of Dongfang Yuejian had already arrived in front of the jade platform.
Dongfang Yuejian first congratulated Xu Taiping with a happy face:
“Brother Taiping, congratulations on your comprehension of the Martial Dao Source Law, the Demon Ancestor Shaking Heaven Fist, from the Spiritual Bone Tablet!”
Xu Taiping smiled at Dongfang Yuejian and said:
“Thank you.”
As he spoke, he had already flown down from the jade platform and stood in front of Dongfang Yuejian.
Dongfang Yuejian then directly opened her mouth and explained to Xu Taiping:
“Regarding the three teams of Dragon Slayers imprisoned by Yuan Lingzi, the Merit Book did not disclose it. However, we went out to inquire a few days ago.”
“If the villagers near Yushu Tun didn’t see it wrong, among the three teams of Dragon Slayers imprisoned this time, one team should be the North Guo family.”
Xu Taiping frowned and said:
“The Li family? Could it be the Li family where Li Xueqing is?”
This Li Xueqing is exactly the woman whom the ancestor of Xuandan Palace, Feng Tianxing, in this life incarnation as Bei Guo Xiao, has a crush on.
The Li family behind her is not as good as the Bei Guo family, but it is also a great family on Chenglongtian.
Dongfang Yuejian said in surprise:
“Brother Taiping, you also know this Li Xueqing?”
Xu Taiping nodded and said:
“I’ve heard of it.”
Dongfang Yuejian didn’t ask any more questions, but nodded and said:
“That’s right, this Li family is exactly the Li family that was previously involved with the reincarnation body Bei Guo Xiao of Patriarch Feng Tianxing in this life.”
She continued:
“This Li family, like us, is in Chaoyun Country, not far from Yushu Tun. They should not want other dragon slayers to get there first, so they chose to take action in advance.”
Xu Taiping nodded slightly, and then asked again:
“The news of the other two teams has not been inquired about. I only know that one of the dragon catchers in one team is a woman.”
“However, among the nineteen dragon catchers this time, the number of women is also quite a lot, so it’s not easy to judge.”
Xu Taiping nodded.
But immediately, as if he thought of something, he immediately looked at Dongfang Yuejian and asked:
“Yuejian, you just said that you found the cave entrance connecting the cave to the outside world?”
Dongfang Yuejian immediately nodded with a smile and said:
“That’s right, Brother Taiping.”
She explained:
“Just during the days when you were comprehending the cultivation method and supernatural power, I asked Cao Sixi to show the way and led us to search in the caves deep in the cave. As a result, we really found an exit directly leading to the outside world.”
Xu Taiping also said happily when he heard the words:
“This really saves us a lot of trouble.”
Xu Taiping then asked Dongfang Yuejian:
“How is Gu Yu doing?”
The corner of Dongfang Yuejian’s mouth raised slightly and said:
“As expected of the body with the bones of a divine being, in just one month, that specific soul has been able to skillfully display all the saber forms of the Thousand Slaughter Saber.”
Saying this, Dongfang Yuejian looked at a cave not far away, and then continued to introduce to Xu Taiping:
Now he is concentrating on comprehending the Burning Yuan Sutra of Feng Tianxing, the ancestor of the Wind Clan. Presumably it won’t be long before he can leave the customs.”
Xu Taiping looked at the location of that cave, and then said with some emotion:
“The accumulated fortune of the Burial Immortal Ruins for hundreds of thousands of years is really not to be underestimated. In the outside world, not to mention the Burning Yuan Sutra, even the peerless saber technique Thousand Slaughter Saber, it is difficult to achieve a small success without three to five decades of time.”
Dongfang Yuejian nodded in agreement and said:
“The cultivation talent of this Gu Yu is the only one I have seen in my life.”
But soon, Dongfang Yuejian looked at Xu Taiping with a serious face and said:
“However, when we went out this time, we also inquired that just half a month ago, General Pang Zhong of the Tianlang Kingdom defeated the army of the Yan Kingdom that came to attack the city, completely relieving the siege.”
Upon hearing this, Xu Taiping’s heart immediately tightened and he said:
“Once the siege is relieved, it means that the cultivation bases of Wu Xin Demon Emperor and the other two have completely recovered. I’m afraid there will be a bloodbath in the Burial Immortal Ruins next.”
Dongfang Yuejian nodded, and then asked Xu Taiping:
“Brother Taiping, do you think we need to take on this task?”
As she spoke, she handed the military merit book in her hand to Xu Taiping.
Xu Taiping took a look at the military merit book and then said in surprise:
“This reward is actually three thousand military merits?”
“Not only that.” Dongfang Yuejian shook her head and then pointed to another reward and said:
“The military merit book has directly increased the reward for capturing Yuan Lingzi to nine thousand.”
Xu Taiping looked at the reward of the previous reward and found that it was really as Dongfang Yuejian said, increased from six thousand military merits to nine thousand.
Xu Taiping took a deep breath and said:
“It seems that the list spirit of the Dragon-Slaying List has also realized that Yuan Lingzi is not an ordinary blood cultivator.”
After seriously thinking about it for a while, Xu Taiping finally shook his head at Dongfang Yuejian and said:
“We still can’t take on this reward for the time being.”
Dongfang Yuejian asked with some confusion:
“When can we take it then?”
Xu Taiping replied with a serious expression:
“At least wait for another one to two months.”
In the confused eyes of Dongfang Yuejian, Xu Taiping explained:
“After one month, Gu Yufen’s Yuan Jing should at least have achieved a small success, and my Demon Ancestor Shaking Heaven Fist should also be able to deliver a punch. At this time, the chances of winning in Yushu Village will be greater.”
“You know, what we have to deal with is not just one Yuan Lingzi, but also the Blood Ancestor behind him and the Demon Dragon Ao Yan who is planning all this in the dark.”
Actually, compared to the Blood Ancestor, what Xu Taiping cared more about was that Ao Yan.
Because this Ao Yan, like him, has the divine power to deduce future good and bad fortunes.
Once that Ao Yan deduces the existence of the three of them, the means they currently have will definitely be targeted.
So before taking action, we must master as many new means as possible.
Dongfang Yuejian nodded at this time and said:
“Since that’s the case, then I will also use this one-month time to see if I can draw two more Immortal Talisman-level Demon-Breaking Talismans.”
Xu Taiping was a little surprised when he heard this and asked Dongfang Yuejian:
“Yuejian, you have already drawn two Immortal Talisman-level Demon-Breaking Talismans?”
Dongfang Yuejian nodded with a smile and said:
“Otherwise, I wouldn’t dare to take that reward.”
Xu Taiping said with joy on his face:
“It seems that your attainments in the way of talismans have improved a lot, Yuejian.”
Dongfang Yuejian looked at the Linggu Tablet not far away and said with a smile:
“This is also thanks to the Innate Sixteen Talismans deduced by the Linggu Tablet.”
Xu Taiping suddenly fell silent for a moment, and then quietly transmitted a voice to Dongfang Yuejian using the method of sound transmission into the secret:
“Yuejian, if possible, prepare one more Demon-Releasing Talisman. The same goes for other talismans. Leave more backups.”
Just as Dongfang Yuejian was about to ask Xu Taiping why he said this, Xu Taiping immediately transmitted a voice to remind:
“Don’t ask anything, and don’t tell me which talismans you have prepared.”
Dongfang Yuejian’s heart trembled, and she suddenly realized something. She immediately casually looked at the Linggu Tablet not far away and replied in her heart through voice transmission:
“I understand, Taiping-ge.”
……
One month later.
Xuandan Palace.
Zhenjianping.
“Why didn’t Taiping-ge and the others take on that bounty this time? Clearly, Hongling Town is only over a hundred miles away from Yushu Tun!”
The princess Chu Xiaoxiao, who had come to the viewing attic of Chunyu Pavilion early, was suddenly very confused when she saw that on the list under the two bounties on the Zhanlong Tablet, there were no names of Xu Taiping and the others.
The little princess Chu Tiancheng, however, said indifferently:
“Presumably, Junior Martial Uncle Taiping and the others have their own considerations.”
Duan Xiaoyu, who was sitting at the same table, also nodded at this time and said:
“Although the rewards for these two bounties are very rich, they are also very dangerous. Big Brother Taiping and the others are fine, but I’m afraid the Dragon Catchers will hold them back.”
Zhang Moyan on the side also agreed at this time and said:
“That’s right. Before, because the Dragon Catchers held back, the Li family was all captured by that Yuan Lingzi.”
Just as the two were talking, suddenly, the Golden Light on the Dragon Slaying List flickered again.
Seeing this, Chu Xiaoxiao immediately said excitedly:
“Someone has taken on the bounty again! It might be Big Brother Taiping and the others!”
