Chapter 287 Dao Master

Long Jiaonan's scalp split to the sides, making a creepy sound. A woman was struggling to crawl out from the cracked skin.

Ling Yuxiu and Si Yunxiang screamed in surprise, and suddenly realized that the two girls were hugging each other, and they quickly let go.

Qin Mu took out his Qin jade pendant from the Taotie bag and put it on. The jade pendant and the Emperor's Disc were tied together and thrown into the Taotie bag by Long Jiaonan. One of these two things involved his life experience, and the other was a treasure given to him by the cripple to ward off evil spirits.

It was so scary when Long Jiaonan crawled out of his own skin, and the Emperor Disc was just the right thing to do to ward off evil spirits.

After a while, the upper body of a naked woman crawled out of Long Jiaonan's skin, and some broken bones were squeezed out of the skin.

The woman was naked, with disheveled hair, and crawling with great difficulty, coughing up blood as she crawled.

"Turn around and don't look!" Ling Yuxiu woke up from her shock and urged Qin Mu.

"It's not like I haven't seen it before..." Qin Mu muttered, but still turned around.

After a while, Long Jiaonan finally crawled out of the human skin, but she was still dying and had no strength. She looked older. She was a young woman before, but now she looked like she had grown up to a dozen years old.

Si Yunxiang took a piece of clothing and covered her body. While putting on the clothing, she quietly pinched the woman's body. With a flickering gaze, she whispered to Ling Yuxiu, "There are still broken bones in her body that have not been completely spit out."

Long Jiaonan reluctantly sat up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and said weakly: "I was injured too badly. This time I shed my skin to heal the wound on my heart and repair some bones. If I want to recover completely, I need to shed my skin several times. Every time I shed my skin, I will age by dozens of years, which will greatly reduce my lifespan. You can rest assured that I am not a threat to your strength now."

Ling Yuxiu looked at the two huge red snake bodies on the beach and suddenly shuddered: "This big snake can also..."

Long Jiaonan's face was gloomy, and he shook his head and said, "Xiaohong has been cut into two pieces, and her head has been damaged. She can't recover..."

"That's good!" Si Yunxiang and Ling Yuxiu both breathed a sigh of relief.

Qin Mu turned around and smiled kindly: "Sister Long, may I ask where your father is? Where is he hiding? Who is with him? Why do you want to see me?"

Long Jiaonan said nothing.

Qin Mu smiled slightly, stretched out his index finger, a wisp of energy flew out, cut a piece of snake meat and roasted it on the campfire. The snake meat was roasted until it was oily and dripped onto the fire, sizzling and emitting smoke.

Long Jiaonan's eyes fell on the piece of snake meat and his pupils suddenly shrank.

"There are 361 halls in our Tiansheng Church, one of which is called the Punishment Hall. It has always been strict in punishment and has hundreds of methods to make people confess."

Qin Mu's face flickered in the light of the campfire. He said, "Yankang State has a Ministry of Justice. You should have heard of its methods. The Minister of Justice is the emperor's man, and the Vice Minister of Justice is the head of the Punishment Hall of our Tiansheng Sect. I want to know these things from you, so I just need to trouble him to do it himself. Will you tell me on your own initiative, or will you torture me to extract a confession?"

Long Jiaonan sneered, "Yankang State is so deeply involved with the Heavenly Demon Sect that it is truly a country founded on the devil. Sect Leader Qin, although my invitation to you this time is threatening, it is also a courtesy, right? I did not embarrass you, otherwise it would not be difficult for me to cut off the Sect Leader's legs, cut off the Princess's hands, and blind the Saint's eyes. Now that the situation is different, I have fallen into your hands, and I hope I can also be treated with courtesy."

Qin Mu shook his head and said, "I can treat you with courtesy on the way, and I won't make things difficult for you. But since you are rebelling, it is only natural to hand you over to the Ministry of Justice for interrogation. You used to have an official position, so it is not impossible to hand you over to the Dali Temple for investigation, but there are also people from my Tiansheng Sect in the Dali Temple."

Long Jiaonan's expression was uncertain, but he didn't say anything.

Qin Mu couldn't get any information out of her, so he snapped his fingers and sealed her soul in his body with the Creation Heavenly Demon Art. He said to the two girls, "Fan Yunxiao's ship is fast, so it shouldn't be too difficult for them to find us here. They can find us tomorrow at the earliest, or in three to five days at the latest. Let's stay on the island for a few days to see if these Huangjing can come back to life."

Si Yunxiang hesitated and said, "The leader has pity on the lives of these Huangjing, but if Long Jiaonan escapes, I'm afraid she will find this place again and destroy these Huangjing. The leader can't be greedy for her beauty just because she is beautiful..."

"Are you greedy for beauty?"

Qin Mu looked at Long Jiaonan and asked in surprise, "She is not pretty, how can she be beautiful?"

Si Yunxiang was surprised. Although Long Jiaonan had a strange temper, she was still a beauty. Although she was a little older after shedding her skin, she was still a beauty. The Holy Leader of the Tiansheng Sect actually thought she was not beautiful. He was a little too slow.

She asked tentatively, "What does the leader think is beautiful?"

"She looks like my mother-in-law."

Qin Mu said without hesitation: "Or chubby girls like Yuxiu are all beautiful. My mother-in-law said that chubby girls are good-looking, but you must be careful of vixen."

Ling Yuxiu was quite proud. She glanced at Si Yunxiang and secretly fell in love with the cowherd as her confidant.

Si Yunxiang was unwilling to give in and said, "The former leader's wife and I are from the same family. According to seniority, I should call her aunt. Does the leader think I'm pretty?"

"You are too thin and young. Are you younger than me?"

Qin Mu looked Si Yunxiang up and down and shook his head, saying, "My mother-in-law said that skinny girls are not pretty. It's okay to be a little fatter, as they can give birth. The pharmacist also said that it's better for girls to be a little fatter, but everyone in the village calls him an old rogue. Don't be sad, you will be pretty if you gain some weight, but don't get too fat. The pharmacist said that being too fat doesn't look good either."

Si Yunxiang was stunned. According to Qin Mu's aesthetic standards, Long Jiaonan was indeed not considered handsome, and even she herself was not considered handsome. No wonder this guy didn't even look at her even once when she was left with only her underwear. It turned out that he had been led astray by the gangsters in their village!

Their young holy leader was good in everything. His wisdom, talent, aptitude, understanding, and even courage were all outstanding. However, no one knew what was wrong with his aesthetic taste.

Qin Mu did not deliberately lower his voice, and said: "I kept this Sister Long to lure out the Dragon King. The Dragon King is very powerful and has a dragon. After all, he is a leader. I will not be at peace if I don't get rid of him. I will be nervous when I go shopping in the future, worried about being killed. After handing Sister Long to the prince, I will invite the left and right guardians and several guardian elders. If the Dragon King dares to come, he will be killed without a complete body."

His face was solemn, and he said, "He must be killed without a complete body, and his head must be smashed, otherwise who knows if he will come back to life! By the way, I don't know what this Dragon King wants from me... But it's not important. What's important is to kill him!"

Long Jiaonan shuddered several times. Qin Mu's plan was too vicious. As long as the Dragon King came to rescue her, he would surely die. He would definitely not be able to defeat the guardian envoys and elders of the Demon Sect!

"Master Qin, my father asked you to come over for a reason!" she suddenly said.

Qin Mu looked at her and smiled, "Sister Long, are you willing to tell me?"

Long Jiaonan sighed and said, "This time someone found my father and said that he was not in a position to show up, but he wanted to meet with Sect Leader Qin and negotiate peace with him."

Qin Mu was surprised and asked, "May I ask who this person is?"

"Master."

Long Jiaonan said, "The so-called three religions and nine schools, Taoism, the Great Leiyin Temple and the Heavenly Demon Sect belong to the three religions, and our Yulong Sect is only a ninth-class sect. The leader is really too powerful. Not only did he rescue the emperor, but he also killed so many Taoist and Great Leiyin Temple masters in the Temple of Heaven in the Imperial City. The Taoist leader was a little panicked and thought that Emperor Yanfeng and State Master Yankang would join forces with the Heavenly Demon Sect to deal with Taoism. It was inconvenient for him to meet you in person to avoid causing misunderstandings between you and the emperor, so this time he found my father and asked my father to invite you to Tianlong Island for a meeting."

Her face turned cold. "I treated you politely along the way. Do you really think I didn't want to kill you? You killed countless disciples of my Yulong Sect in Tianbo City, and the emperor confiscated your property and exterminated your clan. I hate you more than the sea! But the Taoist Master was kind to my father and saved his life. I dare not disobey him."

Qin Mu was thoughtful, pinching his chin. A few whiskers appeared on his chin, which was really annoying.

"The Taoist Master wants to see me, probably to negotiate peace. The Taoist sect wants to negotiate peace with my Tiansheng Sect, but not with the Yankang Kingdom."

He thought, "The Taoist master is worried that our Tiansheng Sect and Yankang State will join forces to attack the Taoist sect, and he is already old and will not live for many years. If we negotiate peace now, we can still save the Taoist sect. Otherwise, after he dies, the Taoist sect will be destroyed."

The snake meat was very fragrant, and the fish meat was also good, but Long Jiaonan only ate a few pieces of fish and didn't taste a single bite of the snake meat. Qin Mu invited her twice attentively, but when he saw that she really didn't want to eat snake meat, he gave up.

The next day, Si Yunxiang and Ling Yuxiu got up early in the morning and saw Qin Mu walking around the island without stopping, sometimes walking on the beach, sometimes walking on the sea, and suddenly jumping into the clouds.

"You have a higher level of talent and understanding than others, and you work harder than others!"

Si Yunxiang gritted her teeth and thought, "Isn't it just to prevent me from having the chance to kill you? Is it necessary to work so hard?"

Qin Mu was focused, and as he walked, he activated the Three Dan Techniques of the Tyrant Body and practiced the techniques, trying to integrate various techniques into one and comprehend the unified technique of the Six Harmonies Realm.

Si Yunxiang was still wrong. Qin Mu's talent was definitely of the lowest level in the eyes of others. When the people in Canlao Village tested him, they found that he was not even a spirit, but just an ordinary person.

Qin Mu should have lived an ordinary life, but the village chief happened to say something like "dominant body", which not only aroused Qin Mu's fighting spirit, but also aroused the fighting spirit of the people in Canlao Village, and all kinds of elixirs and treasures were thrown at him.

Qin Mu is indeed hardworking, and can even be said to be the most diligent practitioner in the world. He also has an invincible belief and firmly believes that he is the overlord who surpasses others. If he is not as good as others, it must be because he is not working hard enough.

His current level of cultivation was not entirely due to the cultivation of the village chief, pharmacist Granny Si and others, nor was it due to chance, but more to his own efforts.

For an ordinary person, if he is willing to use his brain and work hard, it is hard to imagine how great his potential is.

Before a successful person succeeds, no one sees his efforts and thinks he is extraordinary. Only after he succeeds, do others think he is extraordinary, deify him, and ignore his efforts.

Seeing this, Si Yunxiang and Ling Yuxiu also began to practice vigorously. The two girls practiced their own and did not disturb each other. Long Jiaonan lay under a tree, breathing in and out, trying to shed his skin again, but his injuries were too severe and his energy consumption was too great, so he could not shed his skin.

If she sheds her skin again, she will become a middle-aged woman. If she sheds her skin a few more times, she will probably become an old woman.

At noon, Qin Mu returned to the spiritual spring, intending to take some spring water to water the Polygonatum sibiricum planted beside the spring. Suddenly he stopped and saw an old Taoist priest wearing a Taoist robe that was washed to a grayish white. He was holding water with a leaf and walking carefully in the Polygonatum sibiricum field to water the Polygonatum sibiricum. There was also a young man next to him who was helping to water the plants.

The old Taoist saw a leaf growing on the head of a Huangjing plant, and a smile appeared on his wrinkled face. He squatted down and gently stroked the leaf, saying: "These Huangjing plants can regenerate after death. Life is so wonderful, isn't it, Master Qin?"

His every move was in accordance with the wonders of nature, as if he had merged into one with the sea, the island, the spring, the sky, and the Huangjing, indistinguishable from each other.

"Brother, what you said is absolutely right."

Qin Mu stepped forward and said, "I just don't know if these Huang Jing will still be the same Huang Jing after they come back to life. Tiansheng Sect Leader, I greet the Taoist Master."

The old Taoist priest hurriedly returned the greeting, saying, "This is the first time we meet, so I am polite. Lin Xuan, come and meet the current Human Emperor!"

Lin Xuan Daozi beside him was surprised, but he did not ask any more questions. He bowed to Qin Mu with disciple etiquette and said, "Daozi greets the Human Emperor."
