Lu Xiuming was shocked!
Master Shang Ding is a monk in the golden elixir stage. The leader of the cult actually cut off his head without blinking an eye and sent it back to the enemy for demonstration!
Logically speaking, prisoners of this level should be dealt with through multi-party negotiations and lengthy negotiations. Such a temporary decision would be a bit hasty.
However, as a subordinate, he just obeyed the leader's arrangements unconditionally, and he had no right to question it.
"As you command!"
He immediately got up and went out to arrange for the death of the dead. It can be expected that Master Shang Ding would have a tragic ending.
"Alliance...Leader, this, me, that..."
Master Ruyi stammered, not knowing what to say.
Don't look at Lin Shan's sudden change of expression just now, but now he immediately changed back and comforted her kindly.
"Master, don't worry. I believe that Ruyifang's stance definitely has no intention of harming our Lujiang Alliance."
"That traitor, Ruyu Zhenren, must have been planned for a long time, or Shangyang Academy has secretly tried its best to cultivate him and become a nail in my Lu Xi."
"She didn't rebel before, but now she suddenly rebels. I don't know what she thinks, but her personal behavior will definitely not sow discord within our alliance!"
"You can rest assured on this."
Master Ruyi breathed a sigh of relief, almost thinking that Lin Shan was going to liquidate Ruyi Fang!
After all, this young alliance leader was ruthless, and she had seen it with her own eyes.
Now I have to lean over to express my gratitude on the spot. Anyway, I am about to die and my body is about to be buried. It doesn’t matter whether I am embarrassed or not. The most important thing is that I can continue to live safely in the Lujiang League.
Lin Shan supported her and told her that she didn't have to do this.
With more powerful subordinates, he would encounter everyone, and accidents might happen every day. He didn't even take it to heart if he was just a real person named Ruyu.
Killing Master Shang Ding this time was just a shock, and it also showed and flaunted his attitude within the alliance.
The allies saw it in their eyes and naturally understood their intentions, no need to say anything more.
"The alliance leader is so big-hearted that I am not as good as my old age, so I am so grateful!"
Ruyi, an old man, suddenly encountered bad news and couldn't help but reveal his true feelings, tears bursting down his face!
It all made Lin Shan wonder, could it be that her granddaughter ran away a few days ago and deliberately performed a show in front of her today, fearing that she would be liquidated?
"I have spent most of my life cultivating such a young person in the Golden Core stage. After I die, I am afraid that there will be no successor to Ruyifang..."
While talking and crying, in fact the drunkard's intention was not to drink, but to test the wind in Linshankou.
Even a fool can understand this intention.
Lin Shan told her on the spot that if Ruyifang no longer has Jindan Zhenren in charge after her, it will have to be removed from the thirteen guardianship seats and will no longer have the right to speak and vote within the alliance.
This is an iron law and cannot be changed.
Considering that the girls of Ruyifang are the most popular ones, they provide dual cultivation for the majority of lower-level disciples in the alliance, and they are also a valuable asset of the Lujiang Alliance, so he will provide appropriate protection to avoid being bullied by other forces.
Master Ruyi burst into tears now!
Without Jin Dan Zhenren to take over, the Dharma Protector seat cannot be kept. There are a bunch of weak women in his sect, and they all practice dual cultivation techniques. How will he survive in the future!
Lin Shan couldn't bear the woman's crying, so he simply left her to Master Zhankong and let the old boy deal with it.
I turned to find the Black Skeleton Demon Lord and others, just in time to ask them if they had gained anything after being out for half a year.
...
In the main hall.
A large urn is placed in the center.
A huge oval stone egg is lying quietly inside.
"Is this the innate spiritual fetus found?"
Lin Shan frowned. He had just tried all the methods, but he couldn't detect any life breath at all, and there was nothing abnormal. It was no different from a dead stone!
If we really want to talk about the difference, then there is one thing.
It's so strong that it can't be destroyed, let alone refined or even refined.
In this regard, it is a bit similar to the broken ancestral bowl that Master Pu left for him in Qinghe County, southern Xinjiang of the Song Dynasty!
Another thing is that although broken bowls can be identified, this stone egg reinforced panel cannot be identified.
Ancestor Lu Que also retracted his big furry bear paw at this time, shook his deer head, and gave up continuing to explore.
"I have used all means, and I can't find any soul fluctuations in it. It's just like a dead thing."
"impossible!"
The Black Skeleton Demon Lord, Brother Chicken, and the Pig-Headed Monster all shook their heads, shouting that it was impossible.
"That day we were in eastern Shandong, going thousands of miles deep into the Taishan Mountains, continuously crossing the Yueguan Peak, the Eight Immortals Bridge, and the Eighteen Pans, and arrived at the Yunshui Stream..."
"After going through many difficulties and dangers, and tracking down the camp for several months, we finally found clues..."
"That night, there were thunderstorms, lightning and thunder, dark clouds, and no moon. Only a huge hazy shadow twitched in the sky..."
"Under the night, in the storm, only when the thunder lights up, can you see clearly that it is a huge stone tire!"
...
These guys described it vividly.
The Black Skull Demon Lord’s tone trembled,
The pig-headed monster jumped up and down, and the chicken brother screamed!
"Later, relying on the memory of that night, I searched everywhere for several months and finally located this stone egg!"
"I can't say they are exactly the same, I can only say there is no difference!"
"According to me, this guy must be pretending to be dead!"
The three guys were spitting like wildfire, and they were all dealing with the stone eggs.
However, the other party is like a dead thing, lying quietly in the stone urn motionless, as if the sky is falling and the earth is falling. The destruction of the world has nothing to do with me.
Ancestor Lu Que felt that this thing was not like an innate spirit fetus, because it had no life characteristics or soul characteristics at all.
However, the Black Skeleton Demon Lord, Brother Chicken, and the Pig-headed Monster believed in what they saw with their own eyes and believed that this guy was mentally activated and was completely pretending to be dead.
"Although nothing can be seen, the hardness is still there, there is no doubt about it."
The magic weapon can only leave a white mark when stamped on it, which is enough to show that at worst it is an incredible spiritual material.
Because the enhanced panel did not respond, Lin Shan doubted whether it was really a living creature and had doubts about the judgment of the Black Skeleton Demon Lord.
"Ignore it for now, put it away and look at it later."
"..."
The three of them immediately fell silent, staring at each other.
"What's wrong?"
Lin Shan was confused and didn't know what they were doing.
Ancestor Lu Que next to him said:
"This stone egg is weird and cannot be stored in the storage space."
Lin Shan asked in confusion:
"Then how did you bring the three of them back in the first place? Don't tell me that they carried them back all the way?"
"You're right, you really got it back."
He turned around and looked at the thin bodies of Black Skull Demon Lord and Chicken Brother. These two guys held their heads high and seemed to be showing off their strength.
The pig-headed monster on the side was simply ignored.
"What should I do if I can't put it away? I can just leave it in the church without fear of being stolen by others."
"It's not a big deal if you steal it, I'm afraid it will run away on its own!"
The Black Skeleton Demon Lord circled the stone urn, and was also worried about how to place the stone egg.
Lin Shan happened to remember at this time, didn't the Demon King of the Insects just give him a Insect Nest?
Ordinary storage bags and spirit animal bags can't be stored in them, but this demon king's silk fabric may not be stored in them.
He took out the hexagonal insect nest and tried it. Unexpectedly, a green light was projected down and the stone eggs were actually taken in!
"Shua~"
The stone urn on the ground disappeared, leaving only a circular mark.
The Black Skull Demon Lord was thinking about it and almost lost his back!
"What the hell? What is that you are holding in your hand? Is it the treasure that the demon king of insects gave you?"
"Okay, okay, don't think about it, it has nothing to do with you."
Lin Shan knew that this skeleton was greedy and did not want to overexplain anything to it.
"Putting aside the matter of the innate spiritual fetus for now, let's talk about the aftermath of Xuchan Cave Master. How are you doing?"
As soon as he finished asking, he found that all three of them were hesitant and immediately frowned.
"You won't forget, right?"
"How is that possible? I definitely haven't forgotten it!"
The Black Skeleton Demon Lord came out to explain.
It turns out that after the master of Xuchan Cave was killed by an adulterer, the eldest disciple and his wife, the bloody feud fell on Ren Shan, the only heir.
After a series of escapes, Ren Shan, the son of Xuchan Cave Master, defected to the Yang family and told Yang Zhenren about the innate spiritual fetus. Yang Zhenren couldn't find it himself, so he simply reported it to Lin Shan.
Before the three Black Skull Demon Lords went out, they promised that they would bring the innate spirit fetus back and avenge the Master of Xuchan Cave.
After all, when people give you news, they have to express it, right?
But it's a good thing that these three guys were just looking for treasure, and they got the information for nothing without taking revenge!
"We're a step too late!"
"When we came out of the Ludong Mountains and inquired along the way to find the Xuchan Cave, we found out that the couple had already left!"
"According to the disciples who stayed behind, it was merchants from northwest Shandong who came to visit them specially and invited them away."
"The merchant and I are looking for ancient religions, but the Lujiang League won't deal with it, and those two adulterers also want to eradicate it and kill the son of Xuchan Cave Master!
"So we hit it off immediately, so we joined forces and got involved!"
...
The Taoist companions and eldest disciples of Xuchan Cave Master have also come to Lujiang League before, but they failed to get a good deal from Master Yang. This time they simply joined the merchants and planned to use external help!
They obviously overheard a few words from the innate spirit fetus before the master of Xuchan Cave was alive, so they wanted to find clues about Ren Shan!
"So what you're saying is that those two people should be in the store now?"
"Most likely."
Lin Shan nodded and no longer blamed the three of them.
"Very good. If these people were hiding outside, it would be difficult to chase them one by one, but now they are all together, which saves me most of the trouble."
At this time, footsteps were heard outside the hall.
Master Zhankong and Lu Xiuming came in together, followed by more than ten hall masters and deacons from various foundation-building stages.
"Leader, something serious has happened!"
When Lu Xiuming came up, he quickly reported the latest news. Master Zhankong was dragged along by him on the road.
As for the real person Ruyi of Ruyi Square, they probably also dealt with him.
"What's the matter? Tell me slowly."
Lin Shan turned around and walked up to the hall, leaning on his leader's throne.
The senior executives below also took their seats.
"Just now, the latest news came from Chixiao City on the front line. The leader of Mu Yanmu Hall has disappeared!"
The whole place was in an uproar.
Everyone knows that Mu Yan, as the most talented young generation of the Xun Gu Sect, has been in charge of Chixiao City for thirty years, firmly preventing merchants from infiltrating southward, and even gaining the upper hand.
If something suddenly happens now, there must be something wrong with it!
"What's going on? Tell me in detail!"
Lin Shan cheered up and paid more attention.
Because he also had high hopes for Mu Yan, thinking that this boy was not an ordinary person, he would train and train him as a sign of the Xun Gu Sect, hoping to become a mainstay in the future.
He would still feel very sad if he lost such a talented person.
"Just last night, a big battle broke out in Chixiao City. The aftermath destroyed a quarter of the city. More than a thousand monks were killed and injured, and countless properties were lost!"
"According to witnesses at the scene, the person responsible for all this should be a Golden Core monk!"
"According to reports from my disciples of the Xun Gu Sect, Hall Master Mu was practicing in the City Lord's Mansion at that time, and was suddenly secretly attacked by an unknown cultivator of the Golden Core Stage!"
"After hearing that there was an assassin, the disciples in the sect hurriedly gathered together, only to find that the person who came was Jin Dan, who was killing Hall Master Mu!"
"Just when the situation was urgent, a mysterious Golden Core monk suddenly appeared and stopped the assassin. The two took off to fight!"
"Afterwards, a quarter of Chixiao City was destroyed. The leader of Mu Hall seemed to have also participated in the Golden Core Stage war. The disciples in the sect couldn't see clearly."
"After that night, both the pastor and the two mysterious golden elixir monks disappeared, and there was no news..."
...
Lu Xiuming stated the frontline information in detail. Although the words were brief, it is not difficult to imagine how tragic a battle happened that night.
The disappearance of Mu Yan is equivalent to the loss of the backbone of Chixiao City.
Both the disciples of the Xun Gu Sect and the supported Lord of Chixiao City are now in a state of constant panic, fearful and on tenterhooks.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! According to the news this morning, the merchants and the supporting deputy city lords, as local indigenous people, did not send people to prepare for post-war disaster relief work, but directly responded to the rescue work.
The city lords supported by the ancient religion launched an attack!
If you said there was no contact before and after, others would not believe it!
"So, the merchant still violated the previous agreement and brazenly sent out high-level monks to sneak attack on the junior?"
Master Zhankong's eyes widened in anger, and he was very disdainful of this.
All the hall masters and deacons were filled with indignation when they heard this.
Jindan Zhenren secretly attacked the monks in the foundation building stage. Being able to do this shows how shameless the merchants are!
Lu Xiuming added at this time:
"To be precise, we haven't signed any agreement with the merchant before. Their move just broke the unwritten tacit understanding."
"That's unforgivable!"
Master Zhankong has now reached the golden elixir stage and has been immersed in it for decades. He feels that his waist has become a little stronger and he takes the initiative to challenge.
"Leader, since the other party is the first to ignore the rules, we must retaliate in kind and show them some color!"
Lin Shan nodded, acknowledging this sentence, but motioned for him to sit down first and not to rush.
"If the one who attacked Mu Yan at the beginning was the merchant's golden elixir monk, then who was the other mysterious golden elixir who showed up to fight with him later?"
Lu Xiuming read the information:
"Reporting to the leader, no relevant information has been found about this person yet. We can only judge based on the on-site witnesses. It seems that... he is on the side of the pastor..."
