Section 152

Draw the sword!

His movements were only three steps, simple, precise, and swift. The moment the emperor's sword was pulled out, it did not show a magnificent image, but an evil force mixed with blood and demonic energy. It was like a demon had broken the seal and could not wait to pierce the enemy's heart.

A burst of golden light spread from the place where the sword tip touched the heart, spreading to Yuan Liu's whole body.

All the demonic energy in his body was sealed up at once, and he fell to the ground, turning into an ordinary squirrel, lying there powerlessly.

"Take him away!"

The emperor ordered, and the last guard immediately stepped forward and locked the gray squirrel in the cage that had been prepared long ago.

The blood shadow in the air also dissipated after a few breaths, turning into a ball of black blood that fell down, and was scooped up by the emperor with a strange jade and put away again.

He did not care about the dead demon-banning guards. As long as the source blood is still in hand, it is not difficult to create this kind of "half-demon" that can be sacrificed at will.

"Princess Yuhua" has been watching all this in surprise, and finally her eyes fell on the squirrel that was locked in the cage and fainted. Li Mo, hidden under Princess Yuhua's skin, could hardly restrain his greed.

——Only by swallowing the demon soul of this big demon can he have the power to protect himself and have the opportunity to restore all his strength!

Although he was also surprised that there was such a force he didn't know about around the emperor, the most important thing now was to repair his demon soul, so that he would have the opportunity to plot against others. This big demon, he must get it!

"Father, why don't you just kill this demon?" She pretended to be puzzled and asked tentatively.

"You also saw it just now. The demons are so powerful. If mortals want to deal with them, they can only rely on the power of the demons." The emperor explained patiently, "This demon is temporarily useful to me, and it won't be too late to kill it later!"

How long is later? Li Mo didn't want to wake up to find the monster dead. He had to get the monster's soul as soon as possible before the emperor ordered it to be killed.

Thinking about this secretly, Li Mo remained calm on the surface. He suddenly realized something and said "oh", with a girl's light and lively smile on his cheek.

The emperor's goal today has been achieved. Although many people have been sacrificed, at least Yuhua's trump card has not been revealed. Maybe there will be a chance to use it later.

He was satisfied and his smile became more loving.

The "father and daughter" who had their own thoughts smiled at each other and returned to the palace with their spoils.

Not long after, the ancient and dilapidated Taoist temple ushered in a group of imperial guards to search. But after several searches, there was no one in the Taoist temple, so they had to leave in a hurry.

"Senior, what kind of tricks are you using? It's so powerful!"

In the courtyard of the Taoist temple, two people were sitting under a tree. A little furry ball squatted on the stone table between the two people, echoing in a baby voice: "Awesome, really awesome!"

A group of soldiers who were ordered to search the Taoist temple searched back and forth, but they seemed to be blind. They did not see the living person under the tree. When they hurriedly swept past this side, it was like sweeping through the air.

Until watching the backs of this group of people disappear at the entrance of the Taoist temple, Yuan Liu finally couldn't help but exclaimed in admiration.

It is not a particularly profound method to make ordinary people ignore themselves like this. Those who have deep attainments in illusion can do it. Therefore, Yuan Liu's main sigh was not this, but the previous battle.

When the emperor arrived, he was sitting here drinking tea. Before he had time to go out, this big guy somehow threw something out of his sleeve, and then, a Yuan Liu suddenly appeared outside? ? ?

At that time, Yuan Liu himself was stunned.

In other words, the one who had ridiculed the emperor, fought with him, and was finally captured was not the real Yuan Liu. Even Yuan Liu didn't know what it was.

...Puppet, magic weapon, or clone?

Recalling the battle just now, Yuan Liu was still a little scared. The fake Yuan Liu's strength was not worse than his. In other words, if he had gone out just now, it would most likely be him who was captured now.

Thinking of this, Yuan Liu felt a little guilty: "Junior is ashamed. If it weren't for helping me, you wouldn't have caused the senior to lose a puppet..."

"No loss, and it's not for helping you." Yuan Buwei interrupted him, his lips curved lightly, "I let them catch me on purpose."

Yuan Liu was stunned for a moment.

"If you want to catch big fish, how can you have no bait?"

At first, Yuan Buwei thought it was a door-to-door delivery, and wanted to solve the problem directly, but then he changed his mind.

Because he found that Li Mo's state was much more interesting than he thought. For some reason, this person actually has a slight fit with the filthy Daowen. The filthy Daowen placed in Li Mo's demon soul is like a seed buried in fertile soil, absorbing nutrients.

In other words, Li Mo is now a tool for Yuan Buwei to cultivate the filthy Daowen for free.

How could he bear to deal with the other party so early?

And there is another reason for deliberately letting the emperor take his puppet away. That is the demon guard.

When Yuan Buwei sensed the breath of these people, he realized that the emperor was still cultivating half-demons in private. Then he must have a secret place that is unknown to others. If these half-demons were not cultivated with the help of Li Mo, it means that the emperor may have other demons or talented people under his command.

For some reason, Yuan Buwei suddenly thought of Li Sanyuan!

For the emperor at that time, perhaps Li Sanyuan was the first person he had come into contact with who was beyond mortals. If he put himself in the emperor's shoes, it would be too wasteful and meaningless to kill him directly. If he could subdue the other party, it would undoubtedly be the maximum value of use.

The Yandang Mountain was directly razed, but it did not mean that all the monsters had been killed. Even if they were all dead, there were still Princess Shurou and her son. Did they really die?

The emperor had too many weights in his hands to subdue Li Sanyuan, and killing him was just a bad strategy.

The idea was clear, and Yuan Buwei knew what he should do. That was to let the emperor take "Yuan Liu" away, so that he could follow the clues to find the secret place where the emperor secretly cultivated the forbidden monster guards and expose his old background!

Yuan Buwei likes to do things like exposing people's past, ruining people's good deeds, and overturning the chess game:)

But there is no need to tell Yuan Liu about these. He just said lightly: "I suspect Li Sanyuan is still alive."

"How could my third brother still be alive?" Yuan Liu was surprised and blurted out subconsciously.

"Then are you willing to let me calculate it?" Yuan Buwei smiled slightly, his eyes turned between Yuan Liu and Xiaotuanzi, "Anyone can give a few drops of blood."

Although Yuan San has been reincarnated, the karma between the brothers has not been broken. It may not be possible to sense the location, but it is no problem to calculate life and death.

Yuan Liu was still sighing at the great power of this senior, when he suddenly felt a pain in his finger. He looked down and saw that Xiaomaotuanzi had jumped up from the table and bit his finger, "Ah Wu".

"Xiao Qi, what are you doing——"

The little fur ball came to Yuan Buwei with its big tail swinging happily. It put its two claws together and raised them high above its head, giving him a few drops of suspended blood. This posture was like holding hazelnuts as tribute.

Yuan Liu, who was backstabbed by his younger brother, was stunned, but saw the little fur ball staring with round eyes and said confidently: "Here! Use Sixth Brother's! Sixth Brother is fat and has a lot of blood! I am still young and have less blood!"

Yuan Liu: "???"

... It makes sense, so is this the reason why you backstabbed your brother?

Seeing Yuan Liu looking over with a "ferocious" look, the little fur ball cleverly rolled two steps towards Yuan Buwei, grabbed his sleeve at once, and lay here pretending to be dead.

Yuan Buwei chuckled.

Without seeing how he moved, the suspended blood floated away in the air, gradually turning into blood mist, and then drawing into strange runes, and finally dissipating like smoke.

"——He is indeed still alive."

After a moment, he made such a judgment.

"It seems that this time we can really gain a lot."

Chapter 129 Tanhua 14

Three days later.

Deep in the palace, in an extremely secret underground passage, pearls are embedded in the wall, and soft and hazy light pours down, illuminating the dim passage.

The hidden array pattern continued to extend forward along the walls on both sides, all the way to a rusty bronze door. When the emperor placed his hand on the door, the heavy and ancient bronze door suddenly opened slowly.

Endless light shone along the open door, and the inside of the door seemed to be a brand new world.

Looking around, you can see the end of the sky and the earth, and large areas of abrupt and broken traces like cliffs.

Old buildings are scattered on the land, some are still intact, and some are only ruins. It seems like the relics left over from ancient times.

The emperor stepped over the bronze door and immediately appeared in a closed palace, appearing on a slightly quaint golden throne. He gently knocked on the armrest of the golden throne.

The next moment, it seemed that some mechanism was triggered, and accompanied by a buzzing sound, the palace door opened wide.

Suddenly, someone came in like the wind, wearing red armor, with red eyes, showing some demonic features. He bowed his head respectfully: "Meet Your Majesty."

"The matters Your Majesty instructed have been completed, and the new materials are being held in a cell alone."

The so-called new materials mentioned by this person naturally refer to "Yuan Liu" who was sent in three days ago.

The emperor nodded imperceptibly: "Very good."

He stood up: "Bring the person out, I can use him."

This palace complex is not small, and one of them was specially transformed into a prison cell, where all the demons and talented people who were secretly captured over the years were imprisoned. Most of them are diehards who refuse to obey. And they are the source materials for transforming the source blood of the forbidden demon guards.

At the emperor's command, someone soon brought out a special cage from the cell. In the cage with array runes painted on it, a fat squirrel was lying dejectedly. Its fluffy tail drooped, and it slumped on the ground, looking listless, as if it had lost its soul.

——In short, it looked like a defeated dog.

The emperor glanced at it and showed an unexpected look. He stepped forward, walked through a piece of ruins, and finally stepped on the cracked stone road to another palace independent of the other palaces.

The attendant carried the cage and followed him respectfully.

Mysterious patterns were all over the palace door. The emperor took out a bronze key and inserted it in the center of the palace door. The door of the palace opened with a sound as the rays of light intertwined.

The messy bamboo slips, jade talismans, and ancient books were all over the palace, so that it was almost difficult to find a place to stand on the ground. In the center of the bamboo slips and jade talismans, a young man was sitting on the ground with his back to the palace door.

His black hair was extremely messy, as if it had not been cut for a long time. At this time, it had spread to the ground, and his figure was extremely thin. As the palace door opened, the light from the outside world fell in, casting a long shadow for him.

"Brother Fang Yuan, how are you?"

The emperor's peaceful voice slowly came into the palace, and the young man trembled and turned around suddenly.

If the officials in the court were here, they would definitely recognize the identity of this person. This is the talented and top scholar who won the top three prizes many years ago, Li Sanyuan, whose name is Fang Yuan.

The moment he saw the emperor, the young man's thin face showed no sadness or joy, as if all his thoughts were suppressed in his eyes: "Your Majesty never comes to the Sanbao Palace for no reason. I wonder what you want me to do this time? This palace is full of talisman making methods, alchemy techniques, ancient secrets... I
