Xu Taiping and Lu Rushuang looked at each other.
The two guessed something, but tacitly did not reveal it.
“Mansion Master Qiu, you are flattering this junior too much. Please sit down and speak slowly if you have anything to say.”
Xu Taiping stood up and invited Qiu Shanyuan to sit down again.
“Could it be that the two of you have also recognized that thing？”
Qiu Shanyuan was a bit surprised by the reactions of Xu Taiping and Lu Rushuang.
“Lord Qiu, please tell us first why you want Taiping to kill that Ink Crow Chick in the next match.”
Lu Rushuang neither admitted nor refuted.
Hearing this, Qiu Shanyuan first nodded and took out a gold essence coin from his bosom and placed it on the table.
Under the illumination of the candlelight, on this old gold essence coin, one could faintly see circles of halos spreading out.
Immediately afterwards, Xu Taiping and Lu Rushuang only felt that their divine soul was cut off from the outside world.
Youdaoplaceholder0, this gold essence coin was also a treasure used to isolate the outside, and its rank was not low.
“Manager Lu and Young Master Xu should have both heard of the Demon Seed, right？”
Qiu Shanyuan came straight to the point.
Xu Taiping once again looked at Lu Rushuang.
The guesses in the two people’s hearts were correct.
“Taiping, don’t speak. I’ll talk to him.”
Lu Rushuang transmitted a voice to Xu Taiping in a secret way.
“Thank you, Little Martial Aunt.”
Xu Taiping responded in his heart.
No matter what purpose Lord Qiu had for asking him to kill the Crow Chick, letting Little Martial Aunt talk first about this matter could leave him a lot of leeway.
“Of course, but Lord Qiu, what does this have to do with the next match？”
Lu Rushuang looked at Qiu Shanyuan with a very confused expression in her eyes.
“There is a Nine Abyss Demon Seed hidden on that Mo Yachu. Once that demon seed completely awakens, not only the entire Youyun Heaven of Southern Chu may be plunged into a disaster.”
Qiu Shanyuan did not hide anything from Lu Rushuang and Xu Taiping.
This frankness made Lu Rushuang and Xu Taiping feel a little more at ease.
“May I ask the prefect, how did you discover this matter？”
Lu Rushuang poured a cup of tea for Qiu Shanyuan.
As far as she knew, the Mysterious Knowledge Master also only informed the Youyun Prefecture through the Yunyin Temple that a demon seed had sneaked into the Golden Scale Association. At that time, everyone didn’t know which person the demon seed was specifically attached to.
And the calm expressions on the faces of Lu Rushuang and Xu Taiping at this moment once again made Qiu Shanyuan confirm that the two people in front of him also noticed the demon seed on Yachu.
After confirming this point, Qiu Shanyuan’s gaze towards the two people and the considerations in his mind became more cautious.
“At the beginning, the Golden Scale List sensed the aura of the Monster , but we didn’t know that the Monster had already sneaked into the disciples participating in the Golden Scale Association.”
“A few days ago, the abbot of Yunyin Temple sent someone to remind us, and then we began to narrow the scope of the investigation from all the cultivators in the city to the disciples who are still participating in the competition.”
“It was only when Mo Yachu used the Celestial Art of Creation during today’s competition that the current head of the Mo family in Xuanyuan Heaven transmitted a message to this old man, saying that there was something wrong with this Yachu. Only then did this old man ask the old dragon king who has been sleeping at the bottom of the Golden Scale Pond to investigate, and as a result, the old dragon king really smelled the breath of the Nine Abyss Demon Seed on him.”
Qiu Shanyuan truthfully told the two of them the process of discovering the Nine Abyss Demon Seed, almost without any concealment.
“Actually, before this, I also asked the old dragon king to investigate, but the breath of that demon seed was hidden very well, and even the old dragon king didn’t sense it.”
He then added another sentence.
Upon hearing this, Lu Rushuang nodded with a look of sudden realization, and then continued：
“Master Qiu, forgive me for speaking first. Leaving aside the many great cultivators currently gathered in the capital city, just relying on your Youyun Mansion, there should be many means to deal with that demon seed, right？”
Upon hearing this, Qiu Shanyuan sighed and said：
“The demon seed that appeared this time is different. It is an extremely rare Nine Abyss Mysterious Calamity Demon Seed. This kind of demon seed has a power of calamity on it. Once released, not to mention ordinary people, even some cultivators may not be able to resist it.”
“But fortunately, this Mysterious Calamity Demon Seed is mostly asleep most of the time. As long as it is not disturbed, the power of calamity will not be released.”
“And it will only wake up its own power step by step by using the person it possesses to defeat the opponent.”
“If it loses in a competition or battle with others, this demonic seed will abandon that physical body and continue to sleep until the next person who can be possessed appears.”
“So the way to deal with this demonic seed with the least cost is to defeat it before it wakes up.”
Because it involves the reason for asking Xu Taiping to kill that crow chick, so when explaining this matter, Qiu Shanyuan said it very carefully.
This point is almost the same as Lu Rushuang’s explanation to Xu Taiping.
“But Lord Prefect, you also saw today’s competition. The power of that Mo Yachu may not necessarily be inferior to Taiping’s. And this round he won against Miss Dongfang, and his power may increase exponentially.”
So this competition is simply incomparable, and it is probably impossible for you to want Taiping to kill that demonic seed.
Lu Rushuang sighed and said.
Her words at this moment were both said to Prefect Qiu Shanyuan and to Xu Taiping.
If possible, of course she wanted Xu Taiping to try his best to win the next round. After all, this would be of great benefit to both Xu Taiping and Zhenwu Tian and Qingxuanzong.
But since it is a competition that is bound to lose and even a sure death, she thinks it is unnecessary to bet.
As long as the green mountains remain, there will always be firewood. After all, it is most important for people to be alive.
“Young Master Xu, if Miss Dongfang hadn’t summoned that Illusory shadow of yours in front of the Heavenly Customs at the end, this junior would never have come to look for you.
Qiu Shanyuan didn’t give up. Instead, he turned his head and looked at Xu Taiping with a solemn expression.
“Why would Lord Qiu say such a thing？”
Xu Taiping was a bit feel uncertain .
