In the courtyard of Qiyue Xuan.
“So, Bai Yu is currently not in danger, but is just lurking near the courtyard where the Peacock King is imprisoned, right, Sister Lingyue?”
Xu Taiping stood in the middle of the courtyard and looked at the spirit body of Fairy Lingyue manifested in the bamboo forest and asked.
“Right.”
Sister Lingyue nodded, and then smiled and explained to Xu Taiping in detail:
“He should have sneaked out when I used my divine sense to help you deal with the remnant body of that devil. But before that, I had secretly hidden a bamboo leaf on him. As long as the distance is not out of Yunlu Mountain, I can sense every move of his.”
Upon hearing this, Xu Taiping completely relaxed.
“But just now I heard Bai Yu whispering that within three days, the Immortal Law Department will escort out that Peacock King, and then there may be the Peacock Demon clan robbing the prison.”
Fairy Lingyue added.
“Then it’s a good time for me to come back.”
Xu Taiping nodded.
“Is there any problem with your body?”
Fairy Lingyue looked at Xu Taiping with some worry.
During this period of time, Xu Taiping was in the Immortal Gourd Secret Realm. He not only dealt with the demonic cultivators, but also fought against the disciples of other sects. He really didn’t stop for a moment.
“With this pot of spiritual spring given by Layman Yuqing, and soaking in a medicinal soup tonight, I should be able to recover almost.”
Xu Taiping replied with confidence.
He had tasted this spiritual spring on the way back. Although the medicinal power was not as strong as that of the Dragon Gallbladder Wine, it had the advantage of being mild, and was very suitable for conditioning the body after a big battle.
“Your current physique and recovery ability are indeed stronger.”
Fairy Lingyue also nodded.
“However, after my observation these days, I feel that the matter of the peacock might be a setup.”
She suddenly looked at Xu Taiping with a serious expression on her face.
“Sister Lingyue, you mean that someone is using the Peacock King to set up a situation to draw out certain people?”
After having these experiences several times, Xu Taiping’s way of looking at problems was no longer as simple as when he just went up the mountain, so he quickly understood what Sister Lingyue meant.
“Yes.” Sister Lingyue nodded.
“The one who can set up this situation must be either the Sect Master or the Peak Master of the First Peak. The key lies in who they are setting this situation for. Bai Yu? They should not think highly of Bai Yu. Could it be…”
Xu Taiping lowered his head and thought for a while. After a moment, he suddenly raised his head and looked at Sister Lingyue: “Could it be Uncle Bai Hong?”
“Previously, your second senior brother said that Bai Hong had had an opportunity with Ninth Uncle in the Northern Region. I suspect that he should be about to break through to the Demon Venerable Realm, and your Sect Master obviously also knows this. He is afraid of Bai Hong’s revenge, so he set up this situation to lure Bai Hong into the trap and wants to take this opportunity to get rid of him.”
Sister Lingyue guessed.
“Did Bai Yu also guess this?”
XuTaipingsuddenly She frowned head.
“He is not stupid and should have also seen some clues.”
Sister Lingyue nodded and said.
“So that’s why he is in such a hurry to kill the Peacock King, because even if he can’t kill it, he can still disrupt the Sect Master and their plans.”
Xu Taiping muttered.
“Actually, your sect leader is using the method of fishing with a hook, but the problem is that neither Bai Yu nor Bai Hong can refuse the bait on his hook.”
Fairy Lingyue said with a bitter smile.
“That’s right. The hatred of killing their mother and wife, they father and son must seek revenge, and Bai Yu even more can’t just watch his father Bai Hong fall into the trap of the sect leader and the others.”
Xu Taiping nodded and said.
“So I suggest that instead of going with Bai Yu to be the mantis that catches the cicada, you and I might as well wait and see the changes from behind and be the oriole that appears last. In this way, we can not only help Bai Yu and his father in a critical moment, but also master the initiative to retreat completely.”
Fairy Lingyue suggested.
“No problem.”
Xu Taiping nodded.
“Actually, there is another reason why I asked you not to rush to find Bai Yu.” Fairy Lingyue smiled and pointed to the two straight-growing bamboos beside her. “At the latest tomorrow night, these two bamboo fruits will be completely ripe. At that time, you take the weapon in the bamboo fruit, and I regain my freedom, and we will have a better chance of winning.”
“It will be ripe tomorrow night?”
Xu Taiping said in surprise.
If it weren’t for Sister Lingyue’s reminder, he would have almost forgotten about these bamboo fruits.
“If there are no accidents, it will be a spiritual weapon. The probability of it being a sword is higher, but it could also be a knife or other weapons. The worst-case scenario is that it is a spiritual treasure-level armor.”
Fairy Lingyue said.
Even if the required nutrients are prepared, no one can be sure what will grow inside the earthly fruit.
“It would be best if it’s a weapon, but if it’s something else, there’s nothing we can do about it.”
Xu Taiping was very open-minded about it.
“It’s best that you can think like this.”
Fairy Lingyue nodded.
Actually, she really wanted to say that no matter what was produced by that bamboo, the harvest from the maturity of this earthly fruit this time was huge.
Because thanks to this bamboo fruit, her soul had completely stabilized, and she no longer had to worry about the situation of it shattering.
In this way, there would be more things she could do to help Xu Taiping.
“Taiping!”
“Little junior brother, why didn’t you say anything when you came back.”
“Junior brother, come and open the door quickly. We brought wine and dishes.”
Just then, outside the courtyard of Qiyue Xuan, the shouts of Zhao Linglong and several senior brothers suddenly rang out.
Upon hearing this, Xu Taiping’s originally somewhat serious face suddenly softened.
Sister Lingyue, I’m going and meeting my senior brothers first. Later, I still have some things to ask you for advice.
He looked at Fairy Lingyue with a smile and said.
“Hmm, I also need to make some preparations for leaving seclusion.”
Fairy Lingyue nodded.
……
At the courtyard gate.
Xu Taiping walked quickly to the door and opened the courtyard door.
“Sister Linglong, Big Sister, Second Senior Brother, why are you all here?”
To his surprise, not only Zhao Linglong and Qing Xiao came today, but also the Big Sister who rarely showed up on weekdays, and several other senior brothers and sisters also came.
