Chapter 167 Farewell
The sun sets in the west, setting in a semicircle.
Lu Yunze remained silent and turned Wang Luo's body into ashes, which was blown everywhere by the wind.
He finally learned the cause and effect of all these things from Wang Luo's mouth.
As early as the moment when the Spirit Beast Mountain defected and the seven factions on the front line were defeated, the newly appointed elder of the Hidden Moon Sect had already contacted the Ghost Spirit Sect.
She used all the information about the Yue Kingdom that the Hidden Moon Sect had and cooperated with the Ghost Spirit Sect to take over the Yue Kingdom, in exchange for the Ghost Sect being able to cover up the Hidden Moon Sect in front of other demon sects and helping the main force of the sect leave the Yue Kingdom safely.
In order to prevent the other five sects from noticing this, the newly appointed great elder decisively abandoned some of the monks in the sect and notified the Ghost Spirit Sect to let these people die in battle.
Among them, Qiong Wuji's strength and reputation can be used to prove that the Hidden Moon Sect really suffered heavy losses this time.
The key is that he is approaching his life span. Even if he dies on the battlefield, it is not an unbearable loss for the Hidden Moon Sect.
In addition, Lu Yunze also asked from Wang Luo that Qiong Wuji seemed to have taken the initiative to die.
According to Wang Luo, with Qiong Wuji's invisible escape method, if he really wanted to leave, it would be impossible for the Ghost Spirit Sect's army to keep him. But at that time, he came forward and faced the entire ghost army openly.
The main force of Lingmen.
Wang Luo couldn't understand this matter, but Lu Yunze thought it all clearly.
With Qiong Wuji's ability and status, if he insists on not doing something, even the Great Elder cannot force him to do it.
Therefore, there is a high probability that Qiong Wu really went to death voluntarily. As for the reason, Fairy Nishang has already told him.
At that time, he felt that the new great elder could not be so kind, and Fairy Nishang's attitude was too positive, but it was only now that he connected all the things.
Lu Yunze must admit that he underestimated Elder Zhou's ambition and desire for power.
Qiong Wuji volunteered to die, but the condition was that Lu Yunze would become the disciple of the great elder, and the Hidden Moon Sect would fully support him in forming pills and condensing infants.
In this way, Lu Yunze's future cultivation path will be smooth. As a former disciple of Qiong Wuji, now the direct disciple of the Grand Elder, and a candidate for the future Grand Elder, he is almost a natural leader of the casual cultivators.
Not only can the casual cultivator forces express their interests through him, but in the future, they may also support a great elder who is a casual cultivator to become a leader. They simply cannot refuse this condition.
Elder Zhou also used this method to control both the casual cultivator forces and the family forces. From then on, the entire Hidden Moon Sect was completely under her control.
And Qiong Wuji also used his old life, which was short of time, to give his only successor the mantle of the Hidden Moon Sect in exchange for its full support in cultivation, the identity of the leader of the casual cultivators, and the future of the Hidden Moon Sect's great master.
Candidacy quota for elders.
Everyone was satisfied except Lu Yunze.
Looking at the sunset in the distance, Lu Yunze sighed.
It was as if the illusion of Mohu had reappeared through the thick glass. Without his presence in the environment, the troops led by Wang Luo encountered Qiong Wuji, who had no intention of dying.
Although Wang Luo's strength was still not bad, he still died at the hands of Qiong Wuji.
Qiong Wuji also returned to the Hidden Moon Sect and evacuated with the large army. Before he passed away, he kept the inheritance of the Invisible Escape Technique, closed his eyes peacefully, and ended his life.
Lu Yunze was silent, and the illusion of the lake was played repeatedly in front of his eyes, as if it was a provocation.
He ignored it, but picked up a black storage bag, tipped it down, and a white light shot out.
Qiong Wuji's corpse appeared on the ground, with a peaceful expression, exactly the same as the sitting Qiong Wuji in the illusion.
Wang Luo did not destroy Qiong Wuji's body. He originally wanted to wait until he returned to the Ghost Spirit Sect and then slowly study the secrets of the invisible escape method from Qiong Wuji's body, but he did not expect that he would fall into the hands of Lu Yunze. inside.
Along with Qiong Wuji's body, there was a small seven-color needle that came out of the storage bag.
As soon as he came out, he circled back and forth around Qiong Wuji's body with extremely psychic energy, uttering mournful screams one after another.
"Come on." Lu Yunze gently waved to the invisible needle. As if it knew Lu Yunze, it fell obediently into his hand and remained motionless.
Lu Yunze looked at Qiong Wuji's corpse, his eyes suddenly turned red, but he forced himself back.
After a while, Lu Yunze silently put Qiong Wuji back into his storage bag.
A series of escaping lights lit up in the sky, and Dong Xuan'er rushed here with the Hehuan Sect's troops.
"Senior brother, are you okay?" Dong Xuan'er asked quickly as soon as he landed.
Lu Yunze shook his head and looked at the people behind her.
"I have troubled you all this time. I will definitely show my merits to you in front of my master in the future."
"Hahaha...Brother Lu is so happy!" The skinny man laughed strangely like a night owl and said happily.
Lu Yunze nodded, and just when he was about to say something else, Dong Xuan'er suddenly came up to him.
"Senior brother, let's go back to Huanzong together. Master will be very happy to see you."
Dong Xuan'er spoke with a smile, but there was pleading in his eyes.
Lu Yunze remained silent for a while, then suddenly showed a calm smile and spoke softly.
"Junior Sister Dong, I am a madman, and a very sick madman. You should understand what the consequences will be if I run to the devil."
"Either I drive them crazy or they kill me. There is no third option."
Lu Yunze stretched out his hand and after hesitating for a moment, he put it on Dong Xuan'er's shoulder.
"I'm a lunatic, so I'd better stop causing trouble to you."
Dong Xuan'er lowered his head and slapped Lu Yunze's arm off.
"You lied to me again."
Dong Xuan'er raised his head and looked at him, his eye circles slightly red.
"Senior Brother Lu, I have seen what real lunatics look like. They are so crazy that they dare not accept themselves or accept that there are people who are different from them in this world."
"I think I am wise and mature, but in fact I am mediocre and follow the trend. I am trapped by the world without realizing it. Instead, I feel proud that I have become a stereotyped puppet."
"They don't even dare to take a closer look at you. They can only pretend to be disdainful and contemptuous, for fear that they will feel ashamed if they think about it any more."
Dong Xuan'er took a step back, looked at him with a smile, and said:
"Brother, this world is so big, there is really no need to shrink into a small corner. I have to go back to the sect to retreat, and I'm afraid I won't be able to leave with you."
"Let's do this. When you come back, senior brother, be sure to remember to find me and tell me about the scenery in other places." Dong Xuan'er's charming eyes were playfully bent into the shape of a waning moon, and the corners of her mouth were raised briskly, as if the two of them would meet again tomorrow. .
Lu Yunze looked at her delicate and beautiful face, nodded calmly, and then looked at the others.
"I have one more thing for you to do. The Ghost Spirit Sect colludes with the Hidden Moon Sect in an attempt to monopolize the Yue Kingdom. I found a secret letter of communication between the two parties from Wang Luo's storage bag, which can be used as evidence."
Lu Yunze took out a few jade slips, placed them solemnly in Dong Xuan'er's hand, and shook them vigorously.
"Next, you must publicize this matter as soon as possible and try to attract other sects to the scene. You must not let the Ghost Spirit Sect become the only one in Yue State, let alone let the plans of the Hidden Moon Sect and the Ghost Spirit Sect proceed smoothly.
"
"Do you understand everything?"
Everyone nodded in agreement with solemn expressions.
Lu Yunze took one last look at Dong Xuan'er, then turned into a five-color escaping light and soared into the sky, quickly disappearing in the air.
Dong Xuan'er's smile gradually disappeared, turning into a kind of alienation that made people feel distant from thousands of miles away. She turned around and said to everyone:
"Let's go, we still have a lot to do."
Lu Yunze used his invisible escape technique and flew towards the southwest of the Hidden Moon Sect.
Before leaving, he had to pick up something.
At the same time, Yellow Maple Valley.
Han Li frowned and looked at a foundation-building disciple not far away who was covered in black robes.
For some reason, his heart was beating very fast, as if something terrible was about to happen.
"All the disciples from Huang Maple Valley are coming to gather."
A middle-aged man in the alchemy stage said coldly:
Chapter completed!
