I have been slaying demons in the Demon Slayer Division for thirty years

Emperor Jingtai's face was ferocious, veins popped out on his forehead, and his voice was like thunder.

a moment ago.

I was dreaming about the Holy Lord Mingjun, who lived as long as the sky, when he sensed the strange movement of the fairy lotus seeds and rushed over immediately.

As a result, the fairy lotus seeds disappeared.

Li Mu was in the formation, preparing to escape.

"Die! Die! Die!"

With three sounds in a row, Emperor Jingtai pointed his fingers into claws and grabbed Li Mu from the air.

Li Mu had a mocking look on his face without any explanation. When he saw Emperor Jingtai's appearance, he felt a strange pleasure in his heart. .

Emperor Jingtai worked hard to cultivate the fairy lotus, but he didn't even touch it. At least he was able to enjoy it.

When people are unlucky, they will feel comforted when they see someone who is more unlucky than themselves.

"The world has moved!"

Li Mu once again activated the Great Movement Order. Without the forbidden air formation, a gap opened in the void.

At the same time, he gave a little thumbs up to Emperor Jingtai who was chasing him.

"A single man! A thieves! Damn it!"

When Emperor Jingtai saw the Great Movement Order, his expression changed dramatically and he shouted: "My little friend, stay here, I am willing to share the world with you..."

Before he finished speaking, the Great Teleportation made the spiritual light shine, blessing Li Mu to slip into the gap.

"Leave!"

Emperor Jingtai roared angrily and punched the crack in the void.

The void shook, the cracks twisted and then shattered, then quickly closed and disappeared.

"Impossible! This is impossible! My fairy lotus..."

Emperor Jingtai looked ashen and muttered to himself unconsciously.

Looking around blankly, the forbidden formation that has been maintained for hundreds of years still has the aura.

The Nine Nether Immortal Lotus is floating in the sea of ​​bones. The only flower stalk has withered. In three hundred years, new lotus seeds will be born.

"Nothing has changed, only I will die!"

Emperor Jingtai felt that his true energy was reversed, all his internal organs were burned, and a mouthful of blood spurted out.

He vomited blood, and the depression in his heart dissipated a lot. After all, he was an emperor who had been in charge of Daqian for decades, and he would not give up even in desperate situations.

"That little thief looks familiar. He must have seen it somewhere. Find out his identity and let Tianji Palace calculate the traces!"

For ordinary monks, Tianji Palace is a hidden sect that can only be entered by predestined relationship. However, if you want to stay in Daqian territory, you must have a predestined relationship with Emperor Jingtai.

Emperor Jingtai knew that the other party had prepared a large movement order, and there was a high probability that there would be a treasure that could hide the secret.

"I can't die!"

"I want to become an immortal!"

"I want to live forever!"

"As long as there are enough demons..."

Emperor Jingtai suddenly raised his head and looked to the north. There were countless monsters and ghosts there!

…

Sun and moon cave sky.

The birds are singing, the flowers are fragrant, the mountains and waters are beautiful, and it is full of vitality.

After Mao Jiu asked Zhouyi for the secret to enter the cave, many creatures were brought in from outside every day.

It has been cultivated into the magical power of Hutian and is used for transportation, and its efficiency is extraordinary.

Every time Zhou Yi comes in, he can feel that the sun, moon, and sky are becoming more and more like a small world.

Sitting under the fairy peach tree, he took out nine fairy lotus seeds and lined them up.

Mana was poured into the lotus seeds, and after careful inspection one by one, a strong demonic aura was found.

The elixir refined by Emperor Jingtai has a ray of demonic aura, and the demonic aura in the immortal lotus seed is just a ball, which is more than a hundred times richer.

Only when you reach the first level of cultivation and take nine immortal lotus seeds continuously can you break through the immortal chasm.

It is equivalent to taking thousands of elixirs, and the evil energy enters the body, and the consequences are inexplicable.

The laurel tree roots emerged from the ground and transformed into the face of an old man.

"Chang Immortal, this demonic energy is a sign that the immortal plant is possessed by demons!"

"Is the fairy plant possessed by a demon?"

Zhou Yi said: "Tell me carefully what's going on."

"The Immortal Leader should know that the Immortal Plant is a magical medicine that can prove Taoism and become an immortal. Since it can achieve Taoism and immortality, it is natural that there is a true spirit."

Laurel Tree said: "If the true spirit of the immortal plant is enshrined by pure incense, the true spirit will merge with divine power to produce spiritual wisdom, it will be like an old man. If it is corroded by the Yin Qi of resentment, the true spirit will become possessed by demons and produce demonic energy."

Zhou Yi frowned slightly, the demon-slaying division's resentful spirit had condensed into spiritual evil, which could be said to be the most intense evil spirit in the world.

The Nine Nether Demon Lotus has been trapped in prison for five hundred years, and has been force-fed to ripen three crops of demons. Now it seems that it has begun to become a demon.

"What are the consequences of a fairy plant becoming possessed?"

Zhou Yi asked continuously: "What impact will the demonic energy have on the monks when it enters the body?"

"If the immortal plant becomes a demon, it will be difficult to reincarnate as an immortal plant, which means the road to immortality will be cut off."

Laurel said: "As for the demonic energy entering the body, different immortal plants have different dangers. If the old man is possessed by the demonic spirit, the person affected by the demonic energy will have some talents of physical immortality."

Zhou Yi wondered: "Isn't this a good thing?"

Laurel explained: "The demonic energy corrodes the soul, and they will unknowingly become the slaves of the old age."

"This is troublesome..."

Zhouyi first thought of Emperor Jingtai, refined many pure Yang elixirs, and rewarded hundreds of officials and relatives.

The smart ones don't dare to take it, and they will find ways to steal the salted eggs, and then they will flow into various places in Daqian. It is difficult to find out which guy finally fell into the mouth.

There are gamblers who know the world is a trap but are willing to take risks in order to extend their lives.

What's more, the prince of the prison country has taken it and has become dozens of years younger. Could it be that your majesty would still harm his own son?

"Emperor Jingtai is so cruel that he used his own son to test the medicine!"

"That guy Li Mu really has great luck. If Pindao hadn't taken away the fairy lotus seeds, once he took the lotus seeds, he would have become a slave of the demon lotus. Pindao spent so much thought, but in the end he saved the life of the destined son!"

"Luck and God's will are really unpredictable?"

Zhou Yi shook his head and sighed, took out the alchemy furnace, put nine fairy lotus seeds into it, and activated the spiritual fire to start refining.

The demonic energy is difficult for ordinary people to detect and eliminate, but in Zhou Yi's eyes, it is nothing more than that. If he were not worried that the fairy lotus seeds would be damaged, they could be crushed in an instant with great magic power.

"Fairy lotus, magic lotus..."

Zhou Yi thought about how to solve the matter.

There are many forbidden formations underground in the Demon Slaying Division, and there is also an unknown Daqian Taizu, so the consequences of breaking in are unpredictable.

…

Longevity Palace.

The Duke of Chu reported to Emperor Jingtai.

"Li Mu, 23 years old, from Qingyuan County, Luozhou, serves as a junior official in the Ministry of Things..."

"I am blessed with great luck and fall off the cliff at the age of one..."

"I currently live in the Xianyun Courtyard of the East Palace and work as an aide to the Crown Prince. During His Majesty's birthday banquet, the Crown Prince and Li Mu attended the ceremony..."

The Chamberlain was very efficient. In just one hour, he investigated Li Mu thoroughly, including the fact that he asked a pure immortal to tell his fortune.

"The child of destiny! It turns out to be the child of destiny!"

Emperor Jingtai had just regained his calm expression, but became ferocious again, and said in a hateful voice: "I have never imagined that something is wrong with the prince!"

"Let Li Hong come and see me!"

"As commanded."

Eunuch Chu bowed down and went to summon the prince himself, lest he see father and son become enemies and disgrace His Majesty's declaration.

Soon after.

The prince came to the Longevity Palace, kowtowed three times and bowed nine times and shouted long live his father.

Taking the elixir from time to time, the prince's appearance returned to that of a man in his thirties or forties, and he seemed to be in his prime.

Emperor Jingtai looked at the prince's appearance, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and his voice was cold and gloomy.

"Li Mu is yours?"

"Report to Father..."

The prince was frightened when he heard this, but he did not dare to lie: "Li Mu is a branch of the royal family, and his ancestor is the King of Qin. Li Mu has no residence in the capital, and I thought that he was of the same royal family, so I let him live in the East Palace temporarily."

"What a royal bloodline!"

Emperor Jingtai asked: "As a descendant of Zhongzong, don't you know the affairs of King Qin?"

"My son will die!"

The prince looked horrified and quickly fell to the ground to plead guilty.

At that time, Emperor Guangming used a branch of the royal family to seize the throne, which aroused opposition from many clans. Among them, King Qin was the biggest supporter of Taizu's direct bloodline.

The result is obvious. Now Taizu's direct line has become a side branch, and the Prince of Qin's Palace has all the members killed.

This kind of scandal of clan killing each other was almost never mentioned by Emperor Jingtai in order to continue the royal family.

If you say it now, you can only be angry!

"Of course you deserve to die!"

Emperor Jingtai waved his hand, grabbed the prince's neck, and said coldly: "Li Mu sneaked into the palace and stole the royal family's treasures, causing the country to become unstable. What do you think we should do?"

"Cough cough cough..."

The prince was breathing hard, his face turned red from holding it in, and he begged: "Father, please calm down... I will definitely find my son..."

"Retrieval? Why do you find it?"

Emperor Jingtai became even more furious after hearing this. He had just asked Supervisor Tiansi to make a calculation.

Yuan Jianzheng studied under the Tianji Palace, and his divination skills were second only to those of the Four Elders of Tianji. As a result, he did not calculate any information from Li Mu.

Inferring from this, even if the Tianji Palace is asked to perform divination, there will be no trace of Li Mu.

Emperor Jingtai thought of the missing Xian Lianzi and his decades-long plans had come to nothing. He became angry and threw the prince away with his hand.

Bang!

The prince's forehead hit the courtyard pillar, blood spattered everywhere, he twitched a few times and then fell silent.

"Hmph! You have caused so much trouble for me, so it would be easy to die!"

Emperor Jingtai's eyes were cold as he looked at the corpse of the prince without any regret.

In the eyes of Emperor Jingtai, the prince was just a puppet and a shield, and in terms of status, he was not as good as Eunuch Chu.

"Big companion."

Emperor Jingtai's voice fell.

"The slave is here."

Eunuch Chu appeared behind him and bowed his head, not looking at the prince lying in a pool of blood.

"The prince... overdosed on pills and died suddenly."

Emperor Jingtai said slowly: "Check the alchemy room to find out who plotted to kill the prince and kill the nine clans!"

Originally, Emperor Jingtai wanted to say that the prince committed suicide, but then he thought that forcing his son to death just because he lost the treasure would lead to rumors of being cold-hearted, so he simply took this opportunity to check the alchemy room.

Li Mu is alone in Beijing, how can he know the maturity date of Xianlian?

There are remnants of fairy lotus petals in the alchemy room, which may be related to this.

Emperor Jingtai is now suspicious of everyone or anything related to Xianlian, and he wants to search for all the souls to refine them.

"As commanded."

Eunuch Chu paused and asked carefully: "Your Majesty, will the news of the prince's death be announced to the public?"

"Well, let's announce it."

Emperor Jingtai said: "At the same time, my decree is conveyed, and the prince's taking the elixir will be a warning to the ministers, royal family and clan of the court!"

"As you command!"

Eunuch Chu prided himself on being ruthless, and upon hearing this, his heart beat faster and he quickly left with the prince's body.

Your Majesty said that the prince died suddenly after taking the pill, so he must really take the pill, and the bloody appearance cannot be spread. There are experts in torture in the Chamber of Servants, who can make corpses traced and confess, and of course the prince can be made to take elixirs.

In the Longevity Palace, silence fell again.

Emperor Jingtai forgot about the death of the prince in a blink of an eye, and settled down to think about the scenes of ripening the fairy lotus.

"Forcing generals to rebel, using disasters to attract demons, expelling people to catch demons, hunting demons for political achievements, and the Northern Xinjiang rebels are all under control from beginning to end!"

"Xu Ni rebelled in southern Xinjiang, and some accidents happened, but in the end it was not too out of control!"

Emperor Jingtai murmured: "Since then, the Holy Mother White Lotus has suddenly fallen, and the land inventory has been too smooth, and there is also the list of monsters with inexplicable origins..."

With all this happening, it seems like there is a big hand behind the scenes.

Emperor Jingtai had previously focused on ripening the fairy lotus, and even if he noticed something strange, he didn't care much about it.

The immortal lotus matures, the place becomes holy immediately, and all plots and schemes come to nothing.

"If there is really a mastermind behind the scenes, Li Mu is most likely the scapegoat, and there is someone else who stole the fairy lotus..."

A cold light flashed in Emperor Jingtai's eyes. He believed in his martial arts intuition and began to think about how to investigate the person behind the scenes.

There must be traces wherever he passes by. Compared with Li Mu, who works alone, the mastermind who has continuously controlled many things will leave more traces, making it easier to investigate.

As for whether the prince's death was unjust or not, it was not within the scope of Emperor Jingtai's consideration at all.

…

The prince of the prison country overdosed on pills and died suddenly!

As soon as the news came out, all the officials in the court and the royal family thought it was a rumor.

It was not until the nine-foot-long white flags were hung in the East Palace and the grandson held the coffin and cried bitterly that it caused turmoil in the capital.

All the officials in the court looked down upon the prince who was overseeing the country and regarded him as less than a human king. However, they all hoped that the prince would be in power so that the king and his ministers could be harmonious.

The royal clan members didn't care who was in power, they were concerned about how the prince died. If it was as guessed, they all began to think about leaving Luojing temporarily.

Jian Guo died, and Luo Jing remained in peace.

Emperor Jingtai personally issued an order to hold a funeral in accordance with imperial etiquette to commend the prince for his meritorious service in supervising the country.

According to news from the palace, Emperor Jingtai heard that the prince died suddenly, and the great leader of the generation actually covered his face and shed tears.

These secrets from the palace were widely circulated in the capital, and the people praised Emperor Jingtai one after another for being both a holy master and a wise king, and a father who had lost his beloved son!

The only strange thing is that after the death of the prince, no one took charge of the government, and all the officials in the court went to court in front of the empty dragon throne every day.

All the officials stood in the Hall of Supreme Harmony for two hours. After hearing that nothing happened, they left one after another.

No one wrote a letter asking for a new king or to supervise the country.

This day.

Yan's study room.

Many civil servants gathered together to handle matters reported from various places, and it became like a small court.

It was like this when the former prince was in charge of the country. Officials from the six departments would handle the matter and then hand it over to the prince to draw a circle and seal it.

The voice of a servant came from outside the door.

"Sir, Prince Kang has sent another invitation to invite you to the banquet tomorrow."

Yan Gao closed the memorial, coughed slightly and said.

"If you refuse, just say that I have been feeling unwell recently, so I can only accept King Kang's kindness."

"As commanded."

After the servants left, the civil servants in the study whispered among themselves.

In the past few days, several princes have invited Yan Chief Fu to the banquet, as well as several secondary assistants and officials from the six ministries.

The princes have only one idea. They hope that all officials will report to His Majesty to preside over the government. Whether it is returning to the court or appointing a grandson or other prince to supervise the country, the clan government will fully support it.

Yan Gao and several secondary assistants seemed to have reached an agreement. They all complained that they were ill and were willing to go to court in front of the empty dragon chair.

The Minister of Civil Affairs couldn't help but asked: "Master Chief Assistant, the country cannot be without a king for a day. Shouldn't we make a memorial and establish a new king as soon as possible?"

"Who said that the country has no king? Isn't His Majesty in the Longevity Palace?"

There are strict confidants in the study, so there is no need to be too scrupulous about what they say.

"His Majesty has a strange mind now. He needs to be cautious in everything he says. If he misunderstands his holy intention, the servant will be here tomorrow."

Yan Gao snorted coldly and said: "According to the laws of the Qian Dynasty, the clan government has the right to respond to emergencies. Every old fox dare not come forward and just want to leave it to me to wait for the fire pit. To put it bluntly, everyone with the surname Li There’s no rush, why are we in a hurry?”

There was a sudden silence in the study, and the last sentence seemed to be overstepping and making unreasonable remarks.

The Minister of Works quickly changed the subject and said: "Sir, now the Internal Affairs Department is arresting people everywhere, which is beyond the scope of its authority. Do you want to join us in reading a book?"

"No need to bother, wait a few more years, maybe it won't take a few more years."

"I still have a hundred years to live, why bother to be angry for a while..."
