Two treasure maps

As the night deepened, the lights in the Golden Snake Garden flickered, and the figures of the two people appeared and disappeared in the light and shadow.

Mo Yan closed his eyes slightly, and began to carefully recall every detail he saw in the training field. His thoughts flowed like water, gradually settling on a girl of about seventeen years old.

The girl was dressed in a yellow dress, like a young willow in early spring, fresh and delicate. The sunlight fell on her, making the yellow dress shine brightly, as if the whole person was shrouded in a golden halo. Her figure was elegant and upright, like a carefully carved jade sculpture, and every line revealed a unique charm.

The most eye-catching thing is her contracted guardian, a red fox. Other demon cultivators mainly transform into human form, but he can transform into a human form, but he still maintains the form of a fox. Its fur is like fire, shining with a brilliant luster, and its eyes are smart and deep, as if they can bewitch people.

The interaction between the girl and the red fox was very harmonious, and they seemed to have an unspoken understanding. The girl gently stroked the red fox's fur, and the red fox docilely nestled at her feet, occasionally looking up at her, with eyes full of dependence and trust.

Mo Yan recalled the girl's posture when she was practicing. Her every move seemed so natural and smooth, as if every movement contained endless charm. She seemed to be practicing the art of seduction. The charming temperament that emanated from inside out was irresistible.

However, the more he thought about it, the more doubts Mo Yan had. Who prepared this girl for him? Why did he have to let her enter the palace? What purpose was hidden behind her? Mo Yan knew that all this was not accidental, and there must be a complex calculation and conspiracy behind it.

He slowly opened his eyes, with a look of doubt and inquiry in his eyes, and asked, "What's so strange about Guo Yangli?"

Chang Tianlong's face became solemn. He took a deep breath and spoke slowly: "In order to disrupt their plan, I have been instigating Guo Yun to arrange a marriage for her over the past three years. However, what is puzzling is that no matter who is arranged, the person will eventually die mysteriously not long after. At first, I thought it was just a coincidence, but as time went on, this situation happened again and again, and I began to suspect that there must be something fishy going on."

He paused and continued, "Later, by chance, the Guo family actually betrothed Shen Shi, a young general from the Qian Kingdom. Originally, it was thought that this time might be different, after all, Shen Shi was in another country and might be able to escape this disaster. However, who would have thought that even if he went to another country, the engagement would be cut off. What's even more shocking is that the young general should have died on the battlefield and died gloriously, but he died of illness. Moreover, no one could find out the real cause of his death."

Mo Yan was shocked when he heard this. He naturally knew the name of Shen Shi, the young general of Qian State. A year ago, Shen Shi suddenly got a strange disease, and famous doctors were sought all over the country. Xiu State also received a letter to seek doctors. However, Shen Shi died of illness in the end, and his death was extremely tragic. Everyone said that he was possessed by evil spirits. Only immortal cultivators knew that Shen Shi died because his inner elixir was stripped and his essence was extracted.

Thinking of this, Mo Yan couldn't help but frown. He knew that the struggles between immortal cultivators were often cruel and ruthless, but it was the first time he heard of a case like Guo Yangli's, where the other party died strangely just because of an engagement. What kind of secret was hidden in this? What was so special about Guo Yangli that could trigger such a chain reaction?

Mo Yan closed his eyes, and his mind began to quickly replay every detail related to Guo Yangli, especially her interaction with the contracted guardian. He knew very well that he had always been biased towards males in the cultivation of demon cultivators, and there were almost no female demon cultivators under his command, which made him feel quite difficult when investigating women's affairs. After all, it is more appropriate for women to investigate women's affairs. Men are often careless and it is difficult for them to see through the complexity and delicacy of women's hearts.

Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind. He opened his eyes suddenly, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes: "Is Guo Yangli's contracted guardian a man or a woman?" When this question was asked, even he himself was a little surprised. He recalled the scenes he had seen before. Guo Yangli's contracted guardian always appeared in the form of a beast, and he had never seen its human form. Could it be that this guardian is actually a man? If so, then there is a reasonable explanation for the successive deaths of Guo Yangli's fiancées.

He turned to look at Chang Tianlong, with a bit of urgency in his eyes: "When was Guo Yangli's contracted guardian signed?"

Chang Tianlong seemed to have thought of a possibility. He frowned and pondered for a moment before saying, "I have thought about this carefully. But the strange thing is that Guo Yangli's contracted guardian Hong Hu came to the Guo family with Yun Xin. He didn't even know Guo Yangli before he made the contract with her."

Mo Yan frowned upon hearing this. He muttered to himself, "If it's not this reason, what else could it be?" He felt an inexplicable irritation in his heart. Someone prepared a woman for him, the emperor of Xiuguo. What does this mean? What can a woman do in the harem?

As his thoughts turned, he suddenly thought of a possibility. What if this person was not preparing a woman, but a group of women? Then everything became meaningful. It seemed that he really needed to pay more attention to the selection in the future. This was not only related to his harem, but also likely involved an unknown conspiracy and contest.

Mo Yan took a deep breath and said slowly: "Let's ignore this matter for now. Since someone wants to send her to the palace, let her go. I want to see what tricks they want to play?" There was a flash of determination in his eyes, as if he had seen through the conspiracy behind it all.

Chang Tianlong accepted the order, but his heart was full of doubts. He knew that his master's mind was unfathomable, but this matter seemed to be beyond his expectations.

"The dog demon from Guojiazhuang will also stay this time." Mo Yan suddenly said, "You must contact him in time. He may be able to provide some secrets that we don't know."

Chang Tianlong frowned when he heard this. He thought of the dog demon, and it was indeed a little strange. He stared and thought, not knowing whether to tell his master. Mo Yan saw his hesitation and said lightly: "Just tell me what you have to say, no need to hide it."

Chang Tianlong hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke: "Speaking of this dog demon, it is also very strange. Before he met you, he was just an ordinary demon cultivator, but after meeting you, he actually had the shadow of a Buddhist cultivator. It is obvious that he was contracted by the Buddhist cultivator in time."

Mo Yan was shocked when he heard this. He knew that he could control the demon cultivators, but he would not contract them all. It was understandable that they were contracted by others. But who was it? And why did he want to contract the dog demon of Guojiazhuang? Did he also come to explore the secrets of Guojiazhuang?

Mo Yan began to ponder. Guojiazhuang was obviously related to the Heavenly Palace. How could a Buddhist cultivator suddenly be interested in Guojiazhuang? Could it be that in addition to Guo Lin being the son of the Jade Emperor who came down to earth to experience the tribulation, there were also people in Guojiazhuang who were from the Buddhist world who came down to earth to experience the tribulation? A name flashed through his mind - Guo Lingli. She was born one day before Buddha's birthday. Could it be that she was from the Buddhist world who came down to earth to experience the tribulation?

This idea shocked Mo Yan a little. If this was true, then everything would become even more complicated.
