Chapter 4

As soon as Hua Yu and Wei Xiu returned to the Demon Cult's residence, Feng Yi greeted them: "My lord."

Hua Yu looked at Feng Yi's expression and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Yes, there is something wrong with the sea of ​​emptiness." Feng Yi replied.

"My lord, I'm going back to rest first." Wei Xiu greeted Hua Yu, and went back to the room humming a tune he heard from somewhere.

Hua Yu took Feng Yi to the conference hall and asked, "What happened to the Sea of ​​Void?"

"Blood-drinking Valley saw that the Lord was not in the sea of ​​emptiness, and felt a little restless. After killing a few demon cultivators outside the valley to draw blood, those demon cultivators each had their own sects, and the two sides immediately started to quarrel." Feng Yidao.

Hua Yu's complexion remained unchanged, and his slender index finger tapped twice on the table and said: "I see, I happened to have some unexpected gains when I went out today, so I called several Yuanying elders, Feng Er Feng San also called over, I There's something to say."

"Yes." Feng Yi replied.Feng Yi blew a few times in the lobby with a special whistle. After half a stick of incense, he sealed one letter, two letters, three letters, and all the elders above Yuanying gathered in the meeting hall.

"There is a temporary change in the plan." Hua Yu glanced around on the main seat: "The blood hand brings twenty Golden Core killers from the Meteor Department, and Ziyue brings twenty Golden Core Stage monks from the Magic Star Department. The [-] golden core stage secret guards from the Hidden Star Department will stay, Feng Yi and A Heng will stay. Everyone else will follow Feng San back to the Xuxuhai headquarters to stand by."

"Yes."

"In addition, I heard that Blood Drinking Valley didn't follow the rules during my departure. I said that the Fanxingfall organization belongs to, and internal fighting is not allowed. When I left, I violated the precepts, and the crime was aggravated." Hua Yu looked at the meeting room One corner: "Shadow Chase?"

A black shadow slowly appeared all over the body.Ying Zhui was dressed in black, even his face was covered with a black veil, only his right eye was exposed.At this moment, he bowed slightly, looked at Hua Yu with his right eye, and waited for orders.

"After arriving at the Void Sea, you lead people to slaughter the Blood Drinking Valley, leaving no one behind. After you're done, come back to me, understand?" Hua Yu ordered.

Ying Zhui put his right fist against his chest to show his understanding.

"My lord, is Tu Gu too much? After all, only a few people made mistakes, and most of them are innocent." A Demon Sect elder who had some friendship with Blood Drinking Valley couldn't help but said.

"Oh, innocent?" Hua Yu looked quietly at the elder of the Demon Cult who spoke, "Which of the 130 people in the Blood Drinking Valley has no life in their hands, and which one has not drank human blood, are they innocent? What should we do before joining Starfall?" I don’t care what happened, but I have to abide by my rules when I enter the Stardrop. During the time I left, they killed eleven people in total, seven of them were from other sects in the Stardrop organization. Every action is a collective Every time you hunt, the spoils are also shared. Oh, I heard that they also hold a blood feast. If you, elder, are surrounded by them, cutting up your flesh and bleeding it for three days and three nights, you may not feel innocent. "

The elder of the Devil's Cult who spoke resentfully closed his mouth and did not speak again.

Hua Yu then coldly glanced at everyone's faces: "The matter of the Blood Drinking Alliance can be regarded as a reminder to everyone. I know that my qualifications are low, and I am not in the sea of ​​emptiness. Some people have thoughts in their hearts, thinking I don’t know what I did, and I don’t have time to care if I know it. If anyone really thinks so, then you can try it, as long as you can afford the price.”

When Wei Xiu returned to the room, he collapsed on the bed. Although the body of Tian Ling was in good health, he still felt a little tired after running around for a day without cultivation.Originally, I just wanted to take a little rest, but I didn't expect to fall asleep directly.

Today's dream is different from the usual ones. In the dream, he is only eight or nine years old. He was born in a small country. He has a strict father and a loving mother. His father hoped that he would become an official in the court and invited the best. teacher taught him.But he lacks interest in reading, but is particularly interested in drawing symbols and fortune-telling.His father reprimanded him for not doing his job properly, tore up his talisman book, and smashed his hexagram plate, and his mother was also wiping away tears, as if he had compromised.

In the blink of an eye, ten years have passed, and he has grown into a teenager. In that year, he went to high school in one fell swoop, rode a horse through the streets, dressed in fresh clothes and angry horses, and the scenery was endless.But he was not happy, and his expression seemed lost.For another two years, he circled in the officialdom, struggling in the vortex of intrigue and intrigue.He watched the endless wars in the world, the displacement of the people, the lavish life of corrupt officials and their corpses, and the burial of soldiers and soldiers.

After three years as an official, he finally ran out of patience and resigned.He knelt in front of his parents and begged for a fulfillment: "Fame and fortune are not what I seek, and joining an official career is not what I wish. I have been obsessed with astrology since I was a child, and I like alchemy, drawing symbols, arranging arrays, and fortune-telling. Don’t change your ambition, even if the road is bumpy, you will end up being martyred and don’t regret your heart.” In the end, he bid farewell to his parents, packed his bags alone, and went to seek Taoism.He didn't know where to go, and he didn't know what to do, but he had a very distant wish in his heart.He wants to figure out a glimmer of life for the world, he wants to find a peaceful world for the common people.

When Wei Xiu woke up, the emotions in his heart had not completely dissipated. He wiped his face with his hands and found that tears were streaming down his face.Sniffing, wiping away tears with his sleeve, he turned his head to look at Hua Yu's practice room.Hua Yu was meditating in the practice room, half of the silver mask reflected the cold light of the Haoyue Stone on the wall.Haoyue Stone is a stone specially used for lighting. In general underground palaces, a piece is embedded on the wall or ceiling, so that the house will be as bright as day, but it will not feel dazzling. .When you don't need lighting, you only need to turn the Haoyue stone into the stone wall.

"Hua Yu." Wei Xiu called out softly, he should have been called Lord, but at this moment Wei Xiu didn't want to call him that.

Hua Yu opened his eyes and looked at Wei Xiu who was standing at the door. He saw his eyes were red with tears, his lips were slightly pursed, his red nose twitched with his breathing, and his brows were slightly wrinkled, as if he had been hurt. What a grievance.Hua Yu asked in as gentle a tone as possible: "What's the matter?"

"I just had a nightmare." Wei Xiu said with a flat mouth.

Hua Yu opened his mouth, but comforting people is really not his forte.After a pause, Hua Yu said, "Don't worry, I used to have nightmares too."

"Well, I am, I didn't slow down all of a sudden." Wei Xiu seemed to have just woken up, thinking about his act like a baby, and immediately felt a little embarrassed: "I interrupted your practice."

"It's okay, if you don't practice, you can only live a few years." Hua Yu didn't care, maybe the other party could relieve the pain in his soul, and he couldn't help but be extra tolerant towards this baby-faced young man. some.

"Well, the previous soul power should be almost exhausted, and I will lose some more to you?" Wei Xiu asked.Every time he thought that Hua Yu was cultivating Cang Jue's broken pages, he felt a little sad in his heart. He always thought that giving Hua Yu more soul power might extend his life.

"Thank you." Hua Yu signaled Wei Xiu to enter the room, took off his mask, and revealed his handsome face.Although you can use your soul power without taking off the mask, there will be some loss to some extent. Wei Xiu has seen it before, and Hua Yu no longer deliberately hides his appearance in front of Wei Xiu.

The joy of seeing his sweetheart's true face again completely washed away the sadness left in the previous dream, Wei Xiu's tear-stained face once again put on a heartless smile.Wei Xiu walked up to Hua Yu in three steps and two steps, and quickly pinched a hand trick, and punched a soul power into Hua Yu's eyebrows.

The warm feeling enveloped Hua Yu's soul again, and his slightly frowned brows gradually flattened.Wei Xiu stared at Hua Yu and thought to himself, I must make you live well.

Starfall's large army quickly returned to the Sea of ​​Void, and they pretended to be leaving with great fanfare.Hua Yu took the remaining few hundred people and pretended to be a caravan, and moved to Luoxia Town, which is the closest to the Lihuang City, and settled down in a secluded Zhuangzi.

Wei Xiu didn't have the benefit of living with his sweetheart, so Hua Yu left him a separate room in the main courtyard, which was furnished very comfortably, like the kind of young master living in a mortal family.Wei Xiu's life is still leisurely, every day besides giving Hua Yu his soul power, he just reads the script and teases Hua Yu's subordinates.Because Hua Yu had explained that Wei Xiu was a guest of Xingzhuo, not a prisoner, the others could only be polite to him patiently.Fortunately, Wei Xiu just likes to be lively, so he hasn't caused any trouble.

On this day, Wei Xiu blocked Feng Yi, who came to deliver the letter, at the gate of the main courtyard as usual. "Brother Feng." Wei Xiu greeted Feng Yi with a smile.

"Young Master Wei." Feng Yiyang nodded at him expressionlessly.

"Ah, isn't this the envelope from our Star Observatory?" Wei Xiu looked at Feng's first hand, "Second senior brother is very efficient, and we have news so soon. I guess the master must have agreed to cooperate. First brother Feng , from now on we will be our own people." Wei Xiu said while raising his hand to climb the shoulder of Feng Yi who was a head taller than him, looking like a good brother.

"Young Master Wei, the suzerain is still waiting for me to deliver the letter," Feng Yi seemed not used to Wei Xiu's approach, as if he turned sideways.

Wei Xiu withdrew his claws, let the door open and said with a smile, "Okay, okay, it's important to deliver the letter, go quickly."

Feng Yi walked quickly towards the house, but heard Wei Xiu suddenly say: "Brother Feng, the imperial city is no different than other places, you need to be more careful." Wei Xiu took out a mirror-sized object from his arms as he spoke Stuffed it into Feng Yi's hand: "This is a heart mirror made of ancient unicorn scales. The master specially found it for me to save my life. I will lend it to you for three days. Remember to return it to me later."

After Wei Xiu finished speaking, he left. Feng Yi took the breast-protection mirror, which was very expensive at first glance, and was a little dazed. Finally, he put it in his arms, thinking that it was important to deliver the letter, and strode towards Hua Yu's practice room.

Hua Yu had already received a message from Mu Yue from the communication talisman the night before, saying that Guanxinglou was willing to provide some convenience for his revenge, but he would not participate in Hua Yu's actions. This was roughly the same as Hua Yu expected. After all, Xinglou is the largest cultivation sect on land, and he has a lot of information and various resources, which will greatly save his revenge time.Mu Yue said that just giving him a list might not convince him, so he will send the secret scroll to him tomorrow morning.

Therefore, Hua Yu waited in the room early in the morning, and when he sensed someone entering the room, Hua Yu opened his eyes and looked at Feng Yi: "What's the matter."

"Sovereign, a letter from Guanxing Tower." Feng Yi presented the letter in his hand.

Hua Yu took the letter and opened it, and inside was a yellowed scroll, which recorded the past events in detail, which was completely consistent with what he learned from the old department of the Hua family, and it was even more detailed.

According to the secret volume, General Hua returned to the imperial city to report on his duties that year, and brought a pair of inner alchemy from the phoenix beast in the Nascent Soul stage as a tribute.There was an adjutant beside General Hua, named Yue Zhige, who was later bought by Emperor Mu and became the eyeliner that Emperor Mu placed beside General Hua.General Hua should have known about this, but because he had no guilt in his heart, he didn't take too much precaution against this person.

When Yue Zhige told Mu Huang about the tribute, it coincided with the prophecy that "the lone star appears and the world is in chaos." After destroying the Hua family, he ordered Liu Xi, the head servant, to prepare a bottle of scale poison and give it to Yue Zhige, and asked Yue Zhige to find an opportunity to smear the poison on the inner elixir of the Phoenix Yuan Beast to be offered.Scale poison is a deep-sea fish toxin, colorless and odorless, it can penetrate into the inner alchemy of monsters, the skin of the poisoned person will produce scales like fish scales, and the bones in the body will grow long thorns, and eventually the poisoned person will be pierced through the internal organs and died.

General Hua returned to the imperial city and entertained a businessman who had donated food, grass and weapons to northern Xinjiang many times in the tavern.The next day, Emperor Mu summoned him to the palace to face the saint.When he took out the prepared brocade box and was about to present the tribute, Yushi Yang Fengwei suddenly launched an attack and accused him of poisoning the tribute in order to plot rebellion.

Yang Fengwei said that the day before yesterday when he was meeting friends in a wine shop, he saw a businessman acting suspiciously, so he paid attention.It turned out that the businessman and General Hua entered an elegant room.He had no intention of eavesdropping, but when he heard them entering the room, they mentioned words such as "lone star", "tribute", and "poisoning", so he couldn't help but quietly followed, and asked the waiter in the wine shop to post a sound note in the room.He heard that General Hua bought a poison from a merchant, and wanted to put it on the tribute to murder Emperor Mu.General Hua said that Emperor Mu is an upright man, and the princes are still young. If something happens to Emperor Mu, he can raise his troops to revolt and coerce the new emperor to order his courtiers.General Hua also said that he was a lone star who came into the world, and it was destiny to change dynasties.

Of course, General Hua categorically denied it, but the scale poison was found in the inner alchemy, and Manchu was shocked.Some old ministers stood up as a guarantor for General Hua, believing that he would not commit regicide and treason.Emperor Mu also pretended to trust General Hua, but ordered General Hua to stay at home temporarily until the matter was clarified.

After General Hua was grounded, Emperor Mu ordered Bei Qiu, the commander of the imperial guards, to kill the businessman at home, and then pretended to commit suicide.It's a pity that Mingyue, the contractor of Dali Temple who was ordered to thoroughly investigate the case, had been instructed by Emperor Mu to pretend to go to the scene a few times, and it was determined that the businessman committed suicide in fear of crime, and "turned over" several bottles of scale poison from his home .

As soon as the case was concluded, Emperor Mu couldn't even wait for Qiuhou, and immediately made a decisive decision. Seven days later, all 170 members of the Hua family fell to the ground.

Hua Yu closed the scroll, remained silent for a long time, and exhaled slowly.He remembered that after his father returned home that year, he entered the palace within a few days.After leaving the palace, the Hua family was surrounded by a group of imperial guards.In those few days, my father must have had a premonition of something, and he was frowning all day long, and the atmosphere in the entire Hua family was also particularly dignified.One night, the servants brought back the entity of a boy who was about his age in a bucket-carrying cart, and then his father asked him to cooperate with him in the scene where the room caught fire and burned to death in his sleep.Burnt body of teenager

In the mourning hall of his family, he was wearing the clothes of a servant, and his face changed. When the day of funeral came, several guards checked the coffin and found that the body was correct, and his name was automatically removed from the Hua family's register. ticked off.Later, the imperial guards outside captured the Hua family, but he was imprisoned in another place with his servants. The old servant who brought him said that he was his distant nephew. It happened to come to see him these few days, and the others believed it. .Until the day when the Hua family executed the execution, he knelt under the stage with all the servants, watching how his family members died wronged, but he didn't even dare to express his sadness too obviously.

On the eve of his exile, he was rescued by the old Hua family. They called him young master, but he tattooed himself with a dead man's face and told them that the young master of the Hua family had died a long time ago, and the one standing in front of you was just a A vengeful ghost.You are all my father's most trusted subordinates. If you are willing to help my Hua family get revenge, you can follow me. If you don't want to, don't force it.

In the end, there were more than [-] people who followed him. These people knew that if they stayed, Emperor Mu would not let them go, so they might as well follow, maybe they could still gain a chance.In the past few days, because the imperial city had lost a seven-year-old young prince, the search was very strict everywhere. Hua Yu was afraid of being discovered, so he got out of the city on the car transporting the corpse.They traveled through the most dangerous northern border and trek all the way to the Sea of ​​Illusion.There are so many demon cultivators who can kill people without blinking an eye. When Hua Yu built the star pendant, there were only less than a hundred of the three hundred people left, forming the hidden star department led by Feng Er.

"Feng Yi, I have something for you to handle." Hua Yu put the secret volume back into the envelope and said, "This letter is returned to the person who delivered the letter from Guanxing Tower. In addition, you go to the imperial city and help me find out a few personal circumstances."

Hua Yu mentioned the names of several participants in the secret volume, but Feng Yi's expression seemed a little astonished.Hua Yu asked, "What's wrong?"

Feng Yi immediately took out the breastplate that Wei Xiu had given him from his bosom, and told Hua Yu what Wei Xiu had told him.Then he said strangely: "It is obvious that the lord just gave the order, why does Wei Xiu seem to know in advance that his subordinates are going to the imperial city?"

"Don't underestimate him just because he has no cultivation. In terms of fortune-telling ability alone, he might be better than his master. Take the heart guard with you. Be careful when you go to the imperial city." Hua Yu was not surprised. Then he took out a bottle of medicine to restore spiritual power from the storage bag and handed it to Feng Yi, exhorting. "If there is any danger, it is important to save your life."
