230, Seventh Prince

"Miss, Master..."

"Recruiting medicine men?"

Xu Xing, who was covered in a black cloak, heard these words, his eyes flashed slightly, squeezed into the crowd, and looked at the shop where the shouting was.

Although Qiku Island is large, the market trade is not prosperous, with only two or three streets.

The shops on the streets of the market are all regulated equally.

It's just that a "Nan" banner is inserted diagonally on the plaque of this shop.

At the door of the shop, there is a long table, with a sallow-faced middle-aged monk dressed as a housekeeper, and monks holding pens to register.

Here.

Most of them are monks who sign up for medicine. There is only one master of Gu Shu in a dozen people.

"Nan is the surname of Qiku Demon Lord, and this is the property of the Demon Lord's Mansion."

Xu Xing first speculated about the origin of the shop with the Nan banner.

In the seven demon domains of the Mingquan Sect, each demon domain has a demon lord in charge of governance, and the demon lord in charge automatically uses the name of the demon domain as his Taoist name. The demon king of the Seven Bitterness Demon Realm is the Seven Bitterness Demon King.

The name of the Seven Bitterness Demon King has always been inherited by the Nan family cultivators of the Nether Spring Sect.

The Nan family is equivalent to one of the five palaces of the Feiyu Immortal Palace.

"It seems that there are quite a few people who have signed up as medicine men. Is there any benefit in this?"

Xu Xing's eyes flashed a few times, and he was curious.

If you sign up as a medicine man, you will immediately get a reward of 100,000 spirit shells, but these registered cultivators are basically around the Dan, and there are few immortals. 100,000 spirit shells are not tempting enough for the Dan cultivators.

It's not to the point of selling yourself.

Medicine men, people who test medicine, think about it and know that it's not a good job.

Xu Xing thought about it, left the crowd, came to a nearby shop, and walked in.

This shop specializes in selling magic tools.

There are some magic tools on the shelves.

"Shopkeeper, the third lady next door is recruiting medicine men. I see many fellow practitioners have signed up. Is there any benefit here?"

Xu Xing pretended to choose a magic weapon, and talked to the shopkeeper while choosing.

He saw that the shopkeeper remained silent, and immediately handed over a blood pill.

The blood pill is a relatively common pill under the rule of the Mingquan Sect. The price is medium, and one pill costs several thousand spirit shells.

It is suitable for him, the "Huandan Zhenren", to take action.

On the way to Qiku Island, he bought some magic pills such as blood pills on the spiritual islands along the way to facilitate bribery of magic monks.

With a blood pill to lead the way, the shopkeeper's face also had a few more smiles.

"It does have a lot of benefits."

The shopkeeper nodded slightly, "The third lady of the Demon Lord's Mansion is kind-hearted. Even if she recruits a medicine man, she will not give him a fatal drug."

"If you catch the third lady's eye and become her guard, then you will have the opportunity to become her lover."

Speaking of this, the shopkeeper paused and whispered, "Many people think that the third lady's drug testing is a cover, and the real role of the medicine man is to provide her with yang and yin."

"It seems that the medicine man is a good place." "No wonder so many people signed up,"

Xu Xing nodded, showing a look of relief, and smiled. The magic way means subverting the order.

The reputation and chastity of the righteous way are nothing to the magic way.

Leaving the spiritual weapon shop.

Xu Xing did not go to the Nan family store to recruit medicine men, but went to the inn instead, preparing to rent a cave and stay in Qiku Island for a while.

Finding Nan Lu.

Can't be rushed.

However, when Xu Xing just walked to the door of the inn, he saw a group of monks flying towards him from the distant sky.

These monks were dressed in the same uniform, which was generally the uniform of some force. They wore a silver robe with seven black bamboos embroidered on it.

Xu Xing hurried to the side of the street to avoid colliding with this group of people, so as not to cause unnecessary

trouble.

The magic way believes in the naked law of the jungle.

If you are not careful and are killed by a strong man, you can only blame yourself for your bad luck. There is a forbidden flying array on the Seven Bitterness Island.

The monks who can fly in the air on the Seven Bitterness Island are by no means ordinary. Either they have strong cultivation or strong power.

As this group of monks landed, the atmosphere in the streets of Fangshi suddenly became much quieter.

You can hear a pin drop around you.

"Seventh Master has ordered that all cultivators with a cultivation level above Huandan must hand in a Gu worm as an island tax within three years."

"This Gu worm must be at least level two. If there is any delay, a fine of 200,000 Lingbei will be imposed each year.

"Those who extend the deadline to more than five years will be expelled from Qiku Island."

A woman covered in white gauze flew into the air, looking down at the cultivators on the street, and said in a cold voice after a cold glance.

"Level two Gu worm?"

"It is not easy to cultivate a level two Gu worm within three years? "The cultivators on the street kept complaining, with a look of dissatisfaction on their faces. However, they only dared to complain about the difficulty of cultivating poisonous insects, and did not dare to directly name the Seventh Young Master mentioned by the masked woman.

Xu Xing, who was avoiding on the side.

Hearing this, his face was a little uncertain.

It's just that he was wearing a black cloak, and the displeasure on his face was not noticed by others.

He didn't expect that he would encounter the Demon Lord's Mansion forcibly levying taxes as soon as he came to Qiku Island.

Sustainable exhaustion of fish.

It is a common thing for demon sects such as Mingquan Sect.

The huge city entry tax he paid when he entered Qiku Island just now was one of the evil policies of the Demon Lord's Mansion.

"Why don't they look worried or scold, but look relieved instead?"

Xu Xing paid attention to the expressions of the cultivators in the market and found that the cultivators who had just signed up to be medicine men looked at the others with confidence and jesting as if nothing was wrong.

"Could it be?" He pondered briefly.

A solid guess came to mind.

He should become the medicine man for the third lady of the Demon Lord's Mansion. During this period, he would not have to worry about taking on all kinds of exploitation in the Demon Lord's Mansion.

In other words. It is more comfortable to be a slave than a free citizen.

"The owner of the spiritual weapon shop is dishonest. Not long after I arrived, I was deceived once. This is indeed the territory of the devil.

Xu Xing shook his head and sighed.

The difference between demonic monks and righteous monks is by no means only the difference in their skills, but also in their actions and thoughts.

Just like the spiritual weapon shop owner just now, telling the truth would do no harm to him, but he chose to conceal it.

There is only one possibility.

That's deceiving, it's his nature.

Soon, the actions of the monks in the Demon King's Mansion confirmed Xu Xing's guess.

A strange insect like a mantis appeared in the palm of the leading masked woman. She held the strange insect and said to the cultivators:

"This is a soul-eating insect..."

"It will continue to swallow spiritual energy and grow." "Each one has the divine consciousness brand of the Demon Lord's Mansion.

"You are responsible for cultivating this soul-eating insect to level two within three years."

"Of course, you can also hand over other Gu insects." Next.

The masked woman ordered her men to distribute this strange mantis insect to the cultivators. In addition to the medicine man, all the monks who were not from the Demon Lord Mansion were present. Xu Xing also received one.

"Once the soul-eating insect's spiritual brand disappears, or it leaves a thousand miles of Qiku Island, it will be regarded as absconding."

"When the time comes, the Demon King's Mansion will dispatch law enforcement teams to hunt you down." The masked woman continued.

This sentence fell.

The cultivators present immediately gave up the idea of ​​escaping with this strange insect.

Facing the pursuit of the Demon King's Mansion, Zhenjun is almost certain to die, but even if Daojun can escape, it will probably be difficult.

One after another, the soul-eating insects were quickly dispatched by the masked woman and her men.

"Luo Ying, why did the Seventh Young Master suddenly change his mind and not let the Gu Master cultivate the soul-eating insects, but instead let outside monks cultivate them?"

At this time, the sallow-faced middle-aged monk who had been dressed as a housekeeper in front of Nan's shop came to the masked female monk and started chatting with him as if no one else was watching.

"Gu masters are hard to find. Soul-devouring insects eat the same kind of magic power and have difficulty growing. They have to swallow different magic powers to evolve into that kind of strange insect.

The masked woman said.

The conversation between the two fell into Xu Xing's ears. "Luo Ying?"

Hearing this, Xu Xing raised his eyebrows and looked at the masked female cultivator again.

The first time he saw this masked female nun, he felt that her face was somewhat familiar, but he thought he had mistakenly recognized her.

After all, the world of immortality is vast and there are many people with similar faces. Recognizing people mainly relies on breath.

"Second Immortal Luoying, it's really her, but where is her Taoist companion?" Xu Xing touched his chin.

He first met Luoying Erxian through his network with Jiang Yan, the steward of Lushi Pavilion.

Later, the Second Immortal Luoying accumulated enough spirit shells and established connections in Feiyu Immortal Palace. From the monk stationed abroad, he became the steward of the gate.

After the Taoist couple became stewards, Xu Xing didn't know much about their funeral affairs.

I only know that he once competed for the monks stationed abroad under Jiang Yan, and there was a gap.

However, it seems at this moment that the Second Immortal Luo Ying must have defected from the sect, switched to the Mingquan Sect, and became a monk under the Demon Lord Qi Ku.

"Returning to the Late Stage of Dan"

"If she develops steadily in Feiyu Immortal Palace, based on her qualifications, it is estimated that she will be in the early stage of Dan Return at most."

Xu Xing thought to himself.

He guessed that the Second Immortal Luo Ying probably also defected from the sect after the sudden change in Feiyu Immortal Palace.

The two Immortals Luo Ying are not from aristocratic families. After the heavenly change, Feiyu Immortal Palace will have little influence on the upper echelons of the master and apprentice lineage, but the interests of the lower levels are difficult to guarantee.

"Maybe we can start with her."

Xu Xing thought for a moment.

Luo Ying's prestige in Qikudaofang City is not small. Xu Xing got some information about Luo Ying after a little inquiry.

But to prevent being deceived by the devil again.

Xu Xing disguised himself, and after asking several times, he dared to confirm that the information was true. "Qionghai Pavilion is right here."

Two days later, Xu Xing, who transformed into a burly man, escaped from Qiku Island and came to the neighboring island of Qiku Island, Black Stone Island.

He stopped in front of a shop in Heishidaofang City, glanced at the store's plaque a few times, and then walked in.

"Your Excellency, do you want to buy a magic weapon, a pill? Or a land deed?" The maid stepped forward to welcome him, bowed and asked.

Qionghai Pavilion is a kind of chamber of commerce similar to Baibao Pavilion, selling everything.

It's just not as powerful and wealthy as the Baibao Pavilion that opened all over Donghuang Province.

Qionghai Pavilion only exists in the Seven Suffering Demon Realm.

"Yan has a treasure that he wants to sell to Qionghai Pavilion, but this treasure needs Mrs. Qionghai's eyes."

Xu Xing muttered.

"Mrs. Qiong Hai is the master of the pavilion. She has to deal with a lot of important tasks every day, and she has no time to spare."

"There is a treasure appraiser in the pavilion. Why not let the appraiser take a look first? If the value is high, then ask Mrs. Qiong Hai."

The maid declined Xu Xing's request. Just as she said.

Everyone wants to see Mrs. Qionghai, and no matter how free Mrs. Qionghai is, it's hard for her to find time to come over.

"Why don't you want to see me after hearing about the Demon God Flower?" Xu Xing calmly smiled slightly.

"Dear guest, please wait"

"I'll go and notify the steward right away, and ask the steward to inform Mrs. Qionghai." The maid was startled and said hurriedly.

The Demonic God Flower is a rare spiritual object. Although it is not as precious as the Ningying spiritual object, it plays a vital role in Mrs. Qionghai's magical power.

Collecting Demon God Flowers is a crucial task for Qionghai Pavilion. A quarter of an hour later.

Xu Xing was invited to an elegant wing on the second floor of Qionghai Pavilion.

.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw Mrs. Qiong Hai in palace attire, lying lazily on the Arhat bed, as if she were sleeping for the first time in Begonia. Her behavior was very casual.

The white jade shoulders seem to be exposed but not exposed. Half of the round body wants to jump out. Dignified and charming.

"This fellow Taoist, if there is no news about the Demon Flower, I am not someone to tease."

"Killing you to make flower fertilizer is also a good place."

Mrs. Qionghai stretched, stood up slowly, covered her mouth and yawned, then smiled.

She stared at Xu Xing with her almond-shaped eyes, waiting for Xu Xing's reply. If a sentence was false, it would not lead to murder, but it would make Xu Xing's memory long, so she would still do it.

It's not that she's kind.

But as a businessman, if you kill your customers, you will inevitably be criticized. However-

The next moment.

What Xu Xing said completely stunned her, and she almost lost her mind. "Since the lady said so"

"Then Yan has no choice but to strike first." The words fell.

Mrs. Qionghai saw the burly man in front of her disappearing into nothing in an instant. In the wing room, there was no longer the same atmosphere as before.

Immediately afterwards.

A sharp sword hung on her neck.

Several layers of mysterious formations, with her as the starting point, slowly bloomed to the outside world like flowers.

Isolated everything in the wing.

"Your Mightiness"

Mrs. Qionghai forced a smile and looked at the burly man standing in front of her, "I don't know why you are looking for me. I will do my best to help you."

She couldn't imagine it.

In an instant, she became a prisoner.

You know, she is also the True Monarch of Dao Dan and has a great reputation in the Seven Suffering Demon Realm.

Otherwise, we would not be able to create such a huge foundation as Qionghai Pavilion. "There's no rush yet."

Xu Xing shook his head, casually pulled out a strand of Mrs. Qiong Hai's hair, and then poured the breath from it into his quiet spring on the other side. Mrs. Qionghai was just an ordinary Taoist cultivator in the early stage, and she belonged to the category that he could easily suppress.

Although he has a lot of wealth.

But there are some things that wealth simply cannot buy. For example, it is a life-saving method used by the disciples to press the bottom of the box.

If monks in the same realm don't have the means to fight the enemy beyond the Dao Dan level, they won't be able to fight him.

[Cui Shimei: Master of Qionghai Pavilion and concubine of the Seventh Young Master (in this life). 】

[Previous life:? ? ? (It exceeds the upper limit of the mirror master’s magical power detection and cannot be detected). 】

[This life:? ? ? (It exceeds the upper limit of the mirror master’s magical power detection and cannot be detected). 】

"What did you do to me?"

Mrs. Qionghai's delicate body trembled slightly, and her eyes looking at Xu Xing were full of fear. It was clear that Xu Xing was just standing there, not doing anything, but at this moment, Huang Ting, Zifu, and Dao Dan all showed signs of breaking apart in her body.

A trace of black energy wrapped around her body.

"I didn't do anything, I just planted a slave mark on you." Xu Xing explained calmly.

He would still feel unbearable for attacking good people like Xi Yunling, but he didn't feel any guilt at all for attacking demon cultivators like Madam Qionghai. "Slave mark?"

"How could you plant a slave mark on me, obviously?" Mrs. Qionghai frowned.

She already had a slave mark on her body, which was planted by the Seventh Young Master of the Demon King's Mansion.

If Xu Xing plants a slave mark on her, it will definitely disturb the Seventh Young Master. "Haha, this is another method. The world of immortality is so big that it is not just a way to portray slavery."

Xu Xing muttered nonsense.

His quiet spring on the other side is the magical power of destiny, and using it to cast spells is the art of hating victory, not a slave seal.

"So that's it." Mrs. Qionghai believed most of it. She couldn't help but not believe it.

Xu Xing almost destroyed her cultivation in an instant just now.

"I heard that Mrs. Qionghai was in contact with the Seventh Young Master of the Demon King's Mansion, so Yan came uninvited and disturbed Mrs. Qionghai. Please don't blame Mrs. Qionghai."

Xu Xing took back the magic sword hanging on Mrs. Qionghai's neck, lifted up the front of her robe, sat at the round table in the wing, and said.

When he was investigating Luo Ying, he accidentally learned about the relationship between Luo Ying and Mrs. Qiong Hai. He also learned that Mrs. Qiong Hai was not on Qiku Island, so he had a move in his heart and came to "rob" Mrs. Qiong Hai.

On Qiku Island, he didn't dare to make any moves for fear of attracting the attention of the Demon King's Mansion, but on Black Stone Island, he had no such scruples.

Even if there is a Yuanying Daojun chasing him.

With his blood escape speed, he can still escape unscathed. "You want to attack the Seventh Young Master?"

Mrs. Qionghai showed a playful look on her face.

"The Seventh Young Master is not comparable to a woman like me."

"Every young man and young lady in the Demon Lord's Mansion is an elite selected by the Nan family. Each of them has at least the cultivation of Daodan, and the Seventh Young Master has even proved the Yuanying Daojun."

She said in a deep voice.

Although she thought Xu Xing was equally mysterious and powerful, she did not think Xu Xing was the opponent of the Seventh Young Master, otherwise Xu Xing would not have to be so sneaky and attack her.

So she emphasized the power of the Seventh Young Master to tell Xu Xing not to cause trouble for himself.

It doesn't matter whether Xu Xing dies or not.

The key is that Xu Xing has planted a slave mark on her now. Once Xu Xing dies, she will not be able to get away with it.

"Seventh Young Master"

"Yan wants to live a few more years." Xu Xing shook his head.

"That's good."

Mrs. Qionghai breathed a sigh of relief.
