Chapter 716 The mastermind behind this is you!
Because Zhou Qing was also present, the heavenly master secretly did not take action directly.
This is not to say that Zhou Qing's strength has reached such an earth-shattering level that even the masters of the Heaven Realm do not dare to mess around.
But people of his background usually have some protective items given by their elders.
Master Shuiyue Peak did give him this before he left Xuandu Temple and went to Yujing.
Once other heavenly masters attack him, the protective shield will naturally be touched, and the power of Lord Shuiyue Peak will be manifested.
Of course, the power left by Shuiyue Peak Master in the protective amulet cannot resist a true master of the heaven realm.
That power can manifest itself as the Lord of Shuiyue Peak. When facing an overly powerful enemy, its real role is not to fight, but to negotiate with the enemy.
This is my disciple of Xuanduguan. My power left here is no match for you, but if you insist on killing him, you must also consider the consequences of offending Xuanduguan. Why not let him go? Isn’t it wonderful that we can make money by being harmonious?
This kind of protective object, to be precise, is used to activate the face ability...
According to the story, a person with great luck like Zhou Qing generally does not have these things on his body. On the contrary, the villains who are enemies of people with great luck have more amulets given by their elders.
Then they start beating the younger ones, and then the older ones, and so on, and this is an endless cycle, but the background of the lucky person is of no use, as if he has no background...
But That was just a story after all. In reality, it was okay for Zhou Qing not to have a Heaven Realm backer, but the current situation was that he did, and the Lord of Shuiyue Peak had not been subdued. Of course, it was impossible for her not to make preparations when Zhou Qing went out.
Now that there is such a protective object, the problem arises. For Tianjing, the distance between Tai'an County and Yujing City is very close.
If Zhou Qing's protective amulet is touched, this power will speed up the arrival of Shuiyue Peak Master.
The second problem is that the characteristics of heavenly masters from each family are very obvious. No matter how much you hide it, you can't hide your identity from another heavenly realm, unless your situation is extremely special.
For example, it has the ability to change so realistically that no one can tell the difference at all.
In this ambush, the murderers each covered their faces with masks and covered themselves with black robes, just to avoid revealing their identities.
But if Tianjing takes action directly, Dijing’s identity is concealed, but Tianjing’s identity is exposed, it’s still a shame...
If Zhou Qing is being If a disciple of a similar power to him is killed by force, it can only be said that his skills are not as good as others, and he blames himself for not living up to his expectations. He has to make a grudge to settle a grudge. Everyone knows that life and death are determined by life and death, and wealth is in the sky.
But being bullied by the big ones and killed by the small ones in the heavenly realm, unless you are a member of the devil's path and Xuandu Temple can't find you, otherwise the nature of it is serious.
If you are in the Rogue Cultivating Heaven Realm, have no worries, and run fast enough, then you will spend the rest of the days being wanted, but if you are from any Taoist tradition, then you will definitely I can find you and settle the score.
Even if the secret Tianjing did not take action against Zhou Qing, he would only kill Taoist Tiemu and then leave immediately.
The leader of Shuiyue Peak was able to get a glimpse of the situation at the scene from the protective object given to Zhou Qing afterwards, and then identify the identity of the hidden heaven.
It’s also hard to hide.
If word spreads about ambushing a famous person in order to snatch his inheritance, his reputation as well as his orthodoxy will be ruined and he will encounter a crisis of trust.
This is something that many orthodoxies do not allow. The more orthodox it looks like, the more careful it is.
There are some things we can do but you can’t say.
As for the three men in black robes who have been captured by Shuiyue Peak Master, it can be seen from the current situation that they are obviously abandoned children who can be abandoned at any time.
Even if they have the ability, if they really kill Zhou Qing, there is a high probability that they will not be able to involve the forces of the Dark Heaven Realm.
Taoist Tiemu has figured out all this, so he is now very grateful to Zhou Qing and Master Shuiyue Peak, and expresses his sincere thanks again, extremely sincerely.
It was so close that he would lose the inheritance he just received along with his life.
At the same time, Taoist Temu could not help but feel a little curious.
Just now, his communication method has been restricted by the formation, and he cannot contact the outside at all.
But he did not expect that the master of Shuiyue Peak would come to support him. No wonder Zhou Qing would always be so calm.
I just don’t know whether it was Zhou Qing who contacted him, or whether the master of Shuiyue Peak was prepared.
Master Shuiyue Peak said: "There are many heavenly masters in Yujing City. I have not really met him and cannot understand his identity. Can you identify the person who escaped?"
Zhou Qing and Taoist Tiemu shook their heads together, and the latter also explained:
“That man deliberately hid his identity, whether it was a divine weapon or a Taoist method. As far as I know, it is not comparable to the masters of the Great Luo Realm in Yujing City, and it is not the famous Taoist method of each family."
"The top-grade divine weapon he uses is not the native divine weapon. , Although the power of those Tao methods is very good, the attainments he has shown are not in line with his realm, and he probably doesn’t have much time to practice normally.”
Zhou Qing nodded thoughtfully, "Whether it's the top-quality artifact or the Taoist techniques he used, they were all deliberately changed to avoid his usual magic tools and Taoist techniques in order not to be recognized."
“So, Many people should know his true identity.”
If the master of the Daluo Realm is an unknown ghost in Yujing City, then there is no need for him to use the word "unfamiliar" just now. Earthly artifacts and Taoist magic.
Didn't use his native artifact or his best Taoist method, which had some impact on the black-robed man's strength, so that the golden puppet held him back for a longer time.
The reason why we have to change even if our strength is affected is only one thing.
Either his true identity is very famous, or his natal artifact and the Taoist arts he majors in are very unique. As long as he uses them, people can tell where he comes from at a glance.
“But even if he is not very accomplished in Taoism, his grade is not low. There are several Daluo realm practitioners I know who are not as good as him in Taoism. That top-quality artifact is also quite powerful."
Tiemu Taoist said in a deep voice:
"On its own. In addition to his main practice of Taoism and magical powers, he can also practice many high-level magical powers. He can conceal his identity at any time, and he is protected by heavenly masters. He can perfectly change the power of breath and hide his appearance with black robes and masks..."
“Not many forces in Yujing City have such a foundation.”
Zhou Qing nodded in approval, "Yes, this background is really deep."
At least the Ling family's Daluo realm would not be able to behave like this.
In addition to majoring in Taoism and magical powers, he also has another extremely high-level Taoism system that conceals his identity. It is conceivable that the Taoism he majors in will only be more powerful.
He randomly took out a top-quality artifact, but no one recognized it.
A force at the level of the Ling family does not have that ability.
Although the Ling family is not a top-notch force, it is not a bad one in any case as it has a heavenly realm master at its command. There is no doubt that it is a famous family.
But the best artifact is also a valuable treasure to the Ling family.
In Yujing City, there are only a few forces with such deep foundations.
Master Shuiyue Peak said again: "There are still three souls, do you know them?"
The three people who were captured were only in the state of souls at this moment, and their true appearance has been revealed. .
Taoist Tiemu glanced at them and became extremely angry.
"Jian De, Feng Ya, Dao Ri, it's you three! You actually betrayed me!"
Hearing these three names, Zhou Qing understood clearly.
In the information about Taoist Tiemu that he had read before, there was information about these three people. They were considered to be Taoist Tiemu’s friends.
Although they were not the ones with the best relationship, they still kept close contact with each other. Unexpectedly, they stabbed Taoist Temu in the back.
Taoist Temu's face was ashen, and he felt like he was gritting his teeth when he spoke.
"No wonder the Taoist and martial arts you used in the battle just now are all very ordinary, none of them are in line with your realm. It turns out that you are afraid of being recognized by me!"
Hear it! After saying this, Zhou Qing suddenly realized that this was indeed the case.
When I was fighting the black-robed man just now, the opponent either used ordinary attacks or used ordinary martial arts, and there were no powerful moves at all.
It turns out that he is also in hiding.
But the same is true for Zang. There is a big gap between these three people and that Da Luo realm.
People don’t need to major in Taoism, there is also a set of high-level Taoism that can be used. The three of them don’t major in Taoism and martial arts, so they can only use some low-level, mediocre methods.
Taoist Tiemu is good friends with these three people, and he must be aware of their famous magical powers, but it is definitely impossible to say that he knows all the small methods.
Zhou Qing thought of another thing and said in surprise:
"That black robe and mask are so powerful. They actually changed the breath and power of these three people to the pavilion." Even the Lord cannot recognize it.”
Friends must be very familiar with the nature of other people's powers. Even if they don't use their signature magical powers, they can basically recognize them as soon as their true power is revealed.
Like Bai Ruoyue, even if she is disguised as another person, as long as Zhou Qing feels a ray of true energy, he can directly identify her true identity.
It’s just a physical disguise, but it’s actually of no use.
Zhou Qing glanced at the three black robes and three masks that had not been crushed by Shuiyuefeng. These things were interesting and it was impossible for ordinary forces to come up with them.
To a certain extent, such a rare treasure can better demonstrate the foundation of Taoism and martial arts than the artifact.
Temu Taoist asked: "Why? Why do you do this?"
The Chedi warrior named Jiande begged for mercy:
"Temu, we were deceived, we I don’t want this either.”
“Who bewitched you? Who is the person who came with you? "
"We don't know his identity either. When we communicated with him, we never saw his real body. Not long after you and Feng Ya borrowed the puppet five years ago, that person came to find him. Feng Ya, let him keep an eye on you, and then Feng Ya contacted us again... It's Feng Ya, they all belong to Feng Ya..."
The leader of Shuiyue Peak waved his hand, and the three of them died immediately, and the light spots scattered. She stared at these light spots, and finally shook her head and said:
"As they said, the three of them have never seen behind the scenes. The appearance of the person, and I don’t know his identity.”
With the background of the power behind that person, it is impossible to trace the cause and effect through memory.
“The three of them were attracted by the benefits provided by the person behind the scenes, and became the eyes and ears placed beside you. After this incident, each of them will get a top-quality earthly artifact and a technique. "
Zhou Qing thought to himself, it was quite generous.
Taoist Tiemu closed his eyes slightly and took a deep breath. "I don't know people well, it's because I don't know people well."
Zhou Qing said from the side: "Knowing people, knowing their faces, but not their hearts, I can't blame you, Pavilion Master."
This time, he was purely implicated and suffered a terrible disaster. If he had not come here with Taoist Tiemu, he would not have encountered such a problem at all.
However, Zhou Qing didn't have any objections to Taoist Tiemu because of this. He was also a victim, so he couldn't be blamed.
All I can say is that the opportunity is touching.
The inheritance of a heavenly puppet master is indeed worth taking action.
Da Qi Puppet Dao is not prosperous, and the inheritance of Tian Puppet Master is already at the top.
Master Shuiyue Peak said, "Let's go back to Yujing first."
Zhou Qing nodded and prepared to leave, but Taoist Tiemu was silent for a moment and said:
"I won't go back to Yujing."
Zhou Qing looked over and asked, "What does the Pavilion Master mean?"
Taoist Tiemu looked serious and said:
" There are very few forces in Yujing with such foundation. There are very few. Although their identity has not been exposed this time, they have already targeted me. This is for sure.” Safe again.”
"No matter which company is targeting me, if they continue to stay in Yujing, as long as they don't give up, they will always find an opportunity to take action against me. Compared with them, I am too weak and have no power to resist."
Yujing Mingshang is indeed bright, peaceful and orderly.
But the bigger the place, the more darkness there is behind the scenes. If the people behind the scenes are really determined to win over Taoist Tiemu, then staying in Yujing is actually a slow death.
Rules have always restricted the weak. Even if the forces behind the scenes do not directly trample on the rules, there are countless ways to circumvent the restrictions of the rules.
Zhou Qing thought for a while and said, "Has the Pavilion Master made any guesses about the identity of the person behind the scenes?"
Taoist Tiemu was silent, glanced at Shuiyue Peak Master, and then said:
"I suspect it is the royal family."
"..."
What a coincidence, Zhou Qing I am also very suspicious of Qi Bai.
In Yujing, there are not many forces with this background, and the most famous among them is undoubtedly the Qi Bai family.
To be honest, even if other forces forcefully killed Taoist Tiemu, and the matter was eventually exposed, people would only talk about it behind his back. For them, it would not have much impact, and no one would avenge Taoist Tiemu. .
Xuan Du Guan killed Taoist Temu, so what?
Some people may say that Xuandu Temple is overbearing and cruel, but it does not affect the status and development of Xuandu Temple.
Reputation is only useful when I care about it. If I don’t care, it doesn’t matter.
But the royal family is different. As the head of the dynasty, they need reputation and must be as majestic and upright as possible.
Jin Sima's reputation is not good. It is difficult to attract others to serve him loyally. Most people who are loyal to Jin Sima have to worry about whether they will be stabbed in the back one day. They often go out of work and fail to contribute. This is Lessons from the past.
The imperial court, the sect, and the normal family are still different.
In Zhongzhou, the strongest is the royal family.
It is reasonable and reasonable to list him as the first suspected target.
Of course, this does not mean that other forces are not suspected, but the royal family is the most suspected and the first suspect.
As for the royal family, why would they covet the inheritance of Taoist Tiemu?
You have a lot of money, are you not interested in another amount of money?
Furthermore, even if the royal family as a whole is not interested in the inheritance of Taoist Temu, people within the royal family may not be.
"I know that there is a person in the royal family named Bai Yuncheng, who is in the Daluo realm. He is a more powerful puppet master than me."
Taoist Tiemu said again: " In the past, Bai Juncheng took the initiative to communicate with me about the Puppet Way, and said he was willing to exchange the Puppet Way inheritance with me, but I refused.”
"I have some doubts that the person who escaped just now is him."
If it is really someone from the royal family who plotted against Taoist Temu, then he would indeed be seeking death if he returned to Yujing.
They are the makers of Yujing’s rules, how can Taoist Temu play with them.
"Where do you want to go, master of the pavilion? Do you want to join Xuandu Temple?"
Zhou Qing said: "Master can introduce you."
Master Shuiyue Peak nodded, "Xuandu Temple welcomes Master Ironwood Pavilion."
Winning a relatively trustworthy earth realm master into the sect is also a credit.
In fact, after Taoist Tiemu became the puppet master, many forces invited him to join. Even the royal family invited him, but Tiemu did not agree.
“Thank you, Senior Shuiyue, for your kindness.”
Taoist Tiemu rejected the invitation, “But I am used to freedom, and I have no plans to join any force for the time being. I just want to Find a place to practice quietly.”
With the inheritance in hand, the next thing Taoist Tiemu needs to do most is to digest the inheritance.
Refining puppets is secondary, the most important thing is to see if you can improve your own realm!
Taoist Tiemu was meditating, thinking about where he should go. He looked into the distance from time to time. At a certain moment, his eyes passed over Zhou Qing, and suddenly an idea came to his mind.
"Zhou Qing, I remember you were born in Heiyun Town?"
Zhou Qing was slightly startled and nodded in agreement.
"Tianzhou, Heiyun Town..."
Taoist Tiemu recited it again, his eyes bright.
“I wonder if I can go to Heiyun Town to stay for a while?”
“Don’t worry, after I go there, I will not reveal my identity, but will hide among the people. Don’t let anyone find out.”
“……”
Zhou Qing was stunned by Taoist Tiemu's idea, but after thinking about it carefully, it was indeed a more suitable place for Qing cultivation.
First of all, it is far enough away from Yujing. As long as Taoist Temu's whereabouts are not exposed, who can know where he will go?
Secondly, there is a Cave Heaven Paradise in Heiyun Town. Once there, if Taoist Tiemu handles things properly and establishes a relationship with the Yun family, he can also use the Cave Heaven Paradise to practice without affecting his path.
If Taoist Tiemu wants to remain anonymous, he will not really return to the mortal world. He will still have to practice and practice puppets later, which places high demands on the environment.
Whether it is to stay away from disputes or to practice puppet training, Heiyun Town is a good choice. It is better than just finding a barren mountain.
"It's natural for the Pavilion Master to go to Heiyun Town, but when the Pavilion Master gets there, please keep a low profile and not reveal his identity."
Zhou Qing said: "That is the territory of the Black Mountain Holy Land. If the Pavilion Master goes there, If you are discovered later, you can say it was me Friends, don’t conflict with the Yun family.”
“I understand, don’t worry.”
Taoist Tiemu has experienced the feeling of betrayal and fought side by side with Zhou Qing. Now. Pay more attention to Zhou Qing.
He saw Zhou Qing's strength and felt a little lucky. Fortunately, he had never had any ill intentions towards Zhou Qing.
Otherwise, before he got the gold and silver puppets, he would probably not be Zhou Qing's opponent...
For such a promising young man, Taoist Tiemu was willing to befriend him.
"When will the Pavilion Master leave?"
"Leave now, hide your identity along the way, and reach Heiyun Town as quickly as possible!"
Ironwood Pavilion The master is not willing to go back to Yujing at all.
"Zhou Qing, after you return to Yujing, I would like to trouble you to go to the Jade Puppet Pavilion and tell my registered disciples in the pavilion that I will not go back. Let them handle the Jade Puppet Pavilion and sell off the property. , or stick to it, let them do it.”
“If anything happens, let them go to my friends to solve it.”
Taoist Tiemu paused and laughed at himself. .
"The premise is that my few friends still recognize me."
Don't worry about this. Taoist Tiemu's friends in Yujing must also be sincere people. It's impossible that they all turned in some spies.
Zhou Qing accepted the matter and said:
"I am from the Taibai Martial Arts School in Heiyun Town. I would also like to ask the Pavilion Master to report a letter to my senior brothers after arriving in Heiyun Town and tell them, My master and his family will be back soon.”
“Don’t worry, I will definitely take care of this.”
Taoist Tiemu said goodbye to the two of them, and then left here and went straight to Tianzhou. Go in that direction without any hesitation.
If I can’t afford to offend him, can I still afford to hide?
Slipping away.
