Chapter 260 Was it an auditory hallucination?
"Oh, I see. So you mean there might be a spy in the City Lord's Mansion, and under the control of the monster, the spy brought your daughter here?"
"Yes, yes! That's exactly it! Your Majesty! That monster has committed countless atrocities, burning, killing, and looting! It's utterly wicked! It not only stole my daughter, but also took my wife away!"
At this moment, at the entrance to the underground mine.
City Lord Fu Qingzhou was crying his eyes out.
She knelt on the ground, weeping and pleading.
He begged Xu Nian to stand up for him.
"Immortal Venerable, you may have finally arrived. I dared not tell anyone about these things before, for fear that they would think that the demonic cultivator was too powerful and dare not come. Only you are willing to take on such a difficult task and help me find my child!"
"Hehe, it's nothing."
"Thank you, Immortal Venerable! Thank you, Immortal Venerable!"
Fu Qingzhou kowtowed repeatedly.
But then came the next sentence from the young man in the white robe.
He was almost scared to death.
Do you know this person?
"Immortal Venerable, what, what are you saying? I certainly don't know him. I am the city lord, how could I possibly know such a demonic cultivator?"
"Huh? How do you know he's a demonic cultivator?"
"It's him, it's definitely him. Can't I feel his presence? Haha, hahaha, it's definitely him."
Fu Qingzhou wiped his sweat.
Fortunately, the young man in the white robe was rather simple-minded.
I didn't dwell on it much.
Just nodded.
"Alright, let's keep going. Go on, what's wrong with your wife?"
"My wife and I were deeply in love! But suddenly, a strange creature appeared underground! It broke into my bedroom at night and took my wife away!"
Fu Qingzhou beat his chest and stamped his feet in frustration.
Tears flowed down my face.
She cried uncontrollably.
It looked like he was about to breathe his last.
The whole person is not well.
The young man in the white robe listened with great interest.
The female cultivator, on the other hand, held her head in her hands, looking left and right.
They didn't pay any attention to the situation here.
They were extremely carefree and at ease.
It seems that since they weren't there to handle the strange objects on commission, they didn't need to know anything about the situation.
They seemed to be there to relax and take a stroll.
I've come for a walk in the underground mine.
"Is the Demon Lord's disciple really this weak? He was instantly killed by the opponent's sword. What a show-off! He looks so powerful on the surface, but he's actually so weak?"
Fu Qingzhou complained to Xu Nian.
I was indeed muttering to myself.
Although that disciple was instantly killed.
But he wasn't too panicked.
Although this disciple's cultivation level was already very high, the Demon Lord's strength was actually ten or even a hundred times greater.
He wasn't worried at all that the Demon Lord wouldn't be able to deal with these two people.
I'm just a little worried about whether I can lead them to the depths of that ley line.
Why does this male monk keep asking me questions?
So annoying!
From the moment he started asking questions until now, he hasn't stopped!
Why are you like this? You're such a chatterbox!
"What? My love story with my wife? There's really nothing between us..."
Fu Qingzhou was about to say that.
Suddenly, I noticed the white-robed youth's eyes.
He quickly changed his tune.
"Ah, yes, yes, definitely. It's just a love story, how could it not be? We were together when we were little, and then we were well-matched in terms of social status, so we were betrothed as children. Then we became Daoist partners and had a child. Um, does that count as a love story?"
"Ah, they're childhood sweethearts."
The young man was somewhat surprised. "Then your relationship must have been very good. Your life must have been very happy before, right? After having a child, it must have been very fulfilling."
"Happiness..."
Fu Qingzhou thought for a moment.
He looked confused.
It seems there is indeed some happiness.
Besides his own low talent for cultivation, which prevented him from making progress in his cultivation,
Everything else is fine.
Now, although he has cultivation, it seems that he has lost everything he had before.
However, that's not important.
In the world of cultivation, strength is paramount.
As long as one's cultivation level increases, one can have whatever one desires.
As the saying goes, a spiritual companion is like clothing.
Once your cultivation level is advanced, you can just change your clothes.
You could even get a better one than the previous one.
More gorgeous, more beautiful.
As for his wife's life or death, what did it have to do with him? Life and death were predestined and had nothing to do with him.
"Yes, our relationship is still very good, and we were very happy before, so... sigh, that's why I've troubled so many immortals to come and visit you all. I'm really sorry to have troubled you two."
"It's alright, we're almost there."
"Ah, we're almost there, just a little further."
Fu Qingzhou answered subconsciously.
After speaking, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.
Why does he act like he knows I'm taking him somewhere?
Has he already guessed his identity?
Thinking of this, Fu Qingzhou broke out in a cold sweat.
"Immortal Venerable, what... what did you just say?"
The young man looked around, and seeing that he was being looked at, he pointed to himself and said, "Me?"
"Yes, yes..."
"I didn't say anything just now, Lord City Lord. Are you perhaps hallucinating because you're worried too much?"
"Am I...am I hallucinating?"
Fu Qingzhou was bewildered.
But he clearly heard the other person ask him...
it's wired.
If they had asked, they should already know who I am.
What are we waiting for if we don't take action now?
Why are you so calm?
Do they think they can deal with that demonic cultivator on their own?
What a joke.
That Dharma Protector was incredibly powerful, ranking among the top five of all Dharma Protectors.
It is easy to imagine how powerful his cultivation level was.
His own cultivation level has reached the fifth level of the Void Refinement stage.
This is not even under the condition of consuming demonic blood.
If one consumes a large amount of demonic blood, all consequences will be amplified.
It can even reach the top level of Dao Integration.
If these guys had already guessed their identities.
So why not run now?
Is he paralyzed with fear?
Do they still think they can handle it themselves?
Or perhaps...
Was I really hallucinating?
"You...you really didn't say anything just now?"
Fu Qingzhou thought for a moment and asked again.
The young man in white robes smiled. "No, Lord City Lord, what's wrong?"
He glanced at his junior sister beside him.
"Junior sister, did I just speak?"
"No."
"See, I told you so. I didn't say a word at all."
Fu Qingzhou felt a headache coming on.
For a moment, I began to doubt whether the other party had actually asked.
Or is this place dark and secluded?
Are you experiencing some kind of hallucination?
To be honest, I've been having quite a few hallucinations lately.
Every night, I can hear my daughter crying.
But there is nothing that can be done about it.
After all, the resources have already been repaid.
It's only right that they suffer a bit.
This is not entirely my fault.
After all, you're the one who got noticed.
