Chapter 322: Seeing the Dagger Hidden in Plain Sight

ey left, mainly during the earthquake.Jaya is almost six years old this year, and he still speaks very fluently. He slowly explained what happened.When the earthquake happened, Liu Zili and his wife w..."It's Wuyou being abrupt!"

Zǐdài spoke up at this moment to smooth things over.

He probably realized that Lu Yao was a member of the orthodox sect of Xuanmen, yet she used Buddhist artifacts. That's why he asked this question.

"Worry-free Daoist friend, you seem a bit distant. We traveled together before. If you want to know the reason, just ask me directly."

The ripples swept over Wuyou's gaze, making Wuyou suddenly regret asking the question.

"Here, it doesn't matter if it's Taoism or Buddhism, all practices ultimately lead to the same goal. Besides, what matters is that evil spirits are eliminated, and the tool used doesn't really matter."

Ripple said carelessly.

At that moment, the string of relics was on her wrist, and she didn't try to hide it.

"These questions are fine, friend. You can ask them another time. It's best we get back to the main topic now."

"Lu Yao Daoist friend is right! Wu You, you continue speaking."

Without further inquiry, Wuyou explained everything about the white pythons they encountered along the way, as well as the matters concerning Ji Le Palace.

After he was finished, he stepped aside and said nothing more.

These things are not coincidences, but because of these fragments at work.

Ripples drew the sealed Spirit Core Box directly from her sleeve, though it was actually taken from within space itself. After opening the box, she pointed at the black shard of an evil artifact inside.

Zi Dai glanced at the broken skin and then focused her gaze on the Spirit Marrow Box. She had clearly never seen anything so full of spiritual energy.

Her brows furrowed in ripples, she directly waved her sleeve to withdraw the thing into space, then asked softly:

"Purple Violet Daoist should be familiar with this fragment, I presume you know what it is."

Zi Dai realized she had lost composure, immediately withdrew her gaze, and said with a smile:

"Lu Yao Dao You, please forgive me, we have also collected some of these fragments."

"Could you please allow Lu Yao to have a look The evil aura attached to this object can cloud one's mind."

“This might be a bit inconvenient, as this item has also been sealed away by us.”

Zidi said solemnly.

"Sealed!"

Ripple, after hearing Zi Dai's words, suddenly realized something. She immediately stood up, her face turning slightly cold, and said directly:

You sealed the fragments of the evil weapon with the entire Purple Rhyme Heavenly City!

After hearing the ripples' words, Zi Dai also stood up, and said with some displeasure:

So what if it is So what if it isn't

"It seems to be true."

The ripples at this time surface as still as water, and said in a cold voice:

"If Ziyungong is incapable of clearing the evil energy upon it, then it would be best to entrust it to someone capable. Use the entirety of Ziyuntiancheng as a formation to seal the evil weapon. Once it breaks through the seal, every living being within Lingyuntíancheng will become nourishment for the evil weapon."

"What do you mean"

You were just staring at the box I carved with my spiritual essence. Is it because your sealing power is weakening, running out of successors, and you need more strength to support it

Liàn Yī kept staring at Zi Dài and continued to ask.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the hall was somewhat heavy. Zi Dai was also a little embarrassed and angry, waving her sleeves and saying:

"This is a matter of my Ziyungong, no need for Daoist friend to worry about it. Since our paths differ, please excuse me, Lu Yao Daoist, and leave first."

"I'd love to leave! But I'm not willing to clean up your mess. If that's the case, then I'll take my leave."

With a flick of her sleeve, she unleashed her aura. As a cultivator at the late stage of Foundation Establishment, her imposing presence instantly spread throughout the entire Ziyun Palace, accompanied by her ethereal and chilly voice:

"Fellow cultivators of Ziyun Palace, please come out and meet me. Lu Yao has something important to ask."

Zidian's face changed drastically, she was suppressed and had no power to fight back. Wuyou on the side was also full of surprise, but the disparity in strength didn't even give him a chance to speak.

In less than a minute, three figures rushed swiftly toward where Ripples was.

"Who are you Why did you come to my Ziyun Palace without reason"

A purple-robed elder entered the hall first, followed by a man and a woman wearing the same purple robes. Ripple retracted her pressure at this time, giving everyone in the hall a chance to breathe. Zijiao took two steps forward, joined the three of them, and then looked nervously at Ripple.

"It was Lù Yuè who was abrupt, but she had some questions she wanted to ask. Fellow Daoist Zǐ Dài's answer was evasive, so she resorted to this underhanded tactic."

"Liàn yī first bowed to apologize, then directly asked: "

"You have used the entire Ziyun City as a formation to suppress a demonic artifact. Now that its seal is likely weakened, could you tell me about its origins"

Four people looked at each other, and the oldest one, Zi Jiang, spoke:

The magic weapon Lu Yao spoke of was brought back by the founder of my Ziyungong. At the time, he was gravely injured and exhausted all his cultivation to seal that dagger with an array right here.

After that, a century of peace passed. However, with the changing times, this place became a city. Thirty years ago, the seal weakened, and the six most powerful senior brothers of Ziyun Palace had to join forces to reinforce the formation again. They incorporated the entire Purple Rhyme Heavenly City into the formation and then disassembled the dagger, dividing its seals.

"You said you broke up, did it shatter"

Ripples chased after, asking.

"No, the founder of the sect brought back was a broken dagger."

But, I only sense one thing. What about the others

The dagger's blade is in Ziyuntian City, while the hilt is elsewhere.

"Where"

"Cough, the capital city!"

Ripple, after hearing this, didn't know what expression to make. She pointed at the four of them and asked:

"Why send it to the capital"

"As you just said, our cultivation is insufficient and our power is not enough. To prevent the seal from failing again, we can only adopt a strategy of dividing and conquering. The capital city is under the Emperor's feet and has the protection of national dragon energy, which is perfect for utilizing its seal hilt."

This time, Zi Dai answered.

"Do you know that one-third of the national dragon qi within the capital city has already been corrupted by evil qi"

The ripples were laughed at by the air.

People: "What"

Wuyou: "How did I not notice"

Zidi: "Purple Cloud, Senior Brother is in the capital city. Why hasn't he sent a message back Did something happen"

Zijian touched his beard and said directly:

"Lu Yao Daoist friend, the things you say we need to verify. You can stay in Ziyungong, and we can discuss countermeasures together."

Purple had seen clearly, the four of them combined were not a match for this girl. If that was the case, then they would invite her to join their side and solve the problem together.

Ripples also helplessly shook his head and waved his hand, saying:

"I give you three days to investigate this thoroughly. Once this is settled, I need to return to the capital as soon as possible."

This is not a discussion, it's an order.

Four people nodded in agreement, and then instructed Wuyou:

"Wuyu, take Lu Yao Xianzi to the guest courtyard."

"Yes!"

After the ripples subsided, the faces of the four people sank. After a long silence, Zi Jiang finally spoke:

"It was Purple Cloud, Senior Brother, who initially proposed dividing the seal on that sinister dagger. He's been in the capital for some time now, and if there were any abnormalities with the demonic weapon, he would surely have noticed."

What if Lü Yao is lying

"Do you think she had a reason to lie"

""ngbang, you go first!Jin Yuan Qing smiled and stepped aside, giving the floor to the two.Hu Xingbang was a little excited. He came from a military family and already knew how to fight in army boxing....
