Chapter 676: Changes in Lingzhou
Yuan Wuwu had no intention of attacking, but just looked at Duan Qing in silence.
After a moment, he chuckled and said, "Haha, there is a long time to come, Yuan is not in a hurry."
The confusing conversation between Duan Qing and Yuan Wuwu made Yu Fan and the woman in blue skirt beside them confused.
"Daoyou Duan, you two are playing dumb!" Yu Fan couldn't help asking.
"Nothing, Daoyou Yuan is an old friend of Duan, just chatting about the past!" Duan Qing explained casually.
Bai Hao didn't attack, which inevitably made him a little disappointed.
To be honest, based on the grudge between him and Bai Hao in the past, he didn't mind killing Bai Hao at all.
But he also knew that this was obviously not a good time to kill Bai Hao.
From the logo on Bai Hao and the woman in blue skirt's clothes, he had recognized that Bai Hao and the woman in blue skirt were both from the Huanjian Sect.
As they were both from the seven super sects, and in front of outsiders, if Bai Hao didn't attack him first, he wouldn't be able to kill him first.
He couldn't possibly have killed the blue-skirted woman and Yu Fan together.
Yu Fan looked at Duan Qing and Yuan Wuwu suspiciously, obviously not believing Duan Qing's explanation.
"Brother Yuan, who is he to you?" At this time, the blue-skirted woman asked Yuan Wuwu curiously.
"I only know his name is Duan Qing." Yuan Wuwu said calmly.
"Duan Qing from the Shinto Sect, may I ask your name?" Duan Qing bowed to the blue-skirted woman.
Since the blue-skirted woman asked, Duan Qing simply introduced himself directly.
By the way, it would also be a good opportunity to find out the details of the blue-skirted woman.
Hearing the name of the Shinto Sect, the blue-skirted woman's face changed slightly, and her eyes looked at Duan Qing more seriously.
"Wu Fang from the Illusion Sword Sect, meet you, Daoist Duan!" The blue-skirted woman Wu Fang looked at Duan Qing carefully and curiously while speaking, with a hint of light in her eyes.
It was indeed the Illusion Sword Sect.
"So it's Fellow Daoist Wu from the Illusion Sword Sect. I'm sorry!" Duan Qing was polite to Wu Fang, but he was thinking about Bai Hao in his heart.
Senior Yuan Wuwu was the head of the Wanxing Sword Sect, which was famous for its swords in the Central Plains.
After Bai Hao got the memory of Senior Yuan Wuwu and called himself Yuan Wuwu, he joined the Illusion Sword Sect, which is now the number one swordsman in the Central Plains. I don't know if it was a coincidence or he did it on purpose!
"How can my Illusion Sword Sect be compared with the Shinto Sect? Fellow Daoist Duan is too polite!" Wu Fang obviously understood the gap between the two.
Duan Qing didn't want to dwell on this issue anymore, so he changed the subject and said, "By the way, Fellow Daoist Wu and Fellow Daoist Yu, why are you in Diling City?"
Before Wu Fang spoke, Yu Fan on the side looked surprised and suspicious. "After hearing what Fellow Daoist Duan said, didn't he know that Lingzhou had changed?"
Duan Qing's face changed slightly. "Duan really doesn't know, please help me, Daoist Yu!"
The leader of Wuxiang Sect, Hua Ying, only asked him and Hu Yanheng to come to Lingzhou to deliver something to Shui Daozi, but he didn't mention anything about the change in Lingzhou.
Yu Fan sighed heavily and explained: "Not long ago, the Five Elements Sect sent a message for help to all the major sects in the Central Plains, mentioning that Lingzhou had changed and ghosts were rampant, and requested all the major sects to quickly go to Lingzhou for support and eliminate the ghosts."
"In order to get to Lingzhou as soon as possible, dozens of people from my Tiangong Sect chose to teleport directly to Diling City."
"But when we arrived at Diling City, we found that Diling City had become a ghost town!"
"The elder leading the Tiangong Sect relied on our large numbers and wanted to break through and march to the Five Elements Sect, but he didn't expect that there were too many ghosts in Diling City, and there were a few extremely powerful ghosts. In the end, the team was dispersed!"
At this time, Wu Fang took over and said: "That's right, my Huanjian Sect rescue team was also dispersed by ghosts during the breakout process, and that's why we happened to meet Taoist Yu Fan from Tiangong Sect!"
After listening to Yu Fan and Wu Fang's words, Duan Qing couldn't help cursing in his heart.
Hua Ying, this old thing, knew that Lingzhou was dangerous, but he didn't inform him in advance before setting off!
Thinking of this, Duan Qing suddenly thought of something and couldn't help asking the two of them: "The Five Elements Sect asked for help from all the sects, so they must have guessed that someone would be teleported here. Could it be that they didn't know that Diling City had fallen?"
Yu Fan shook his head blankly. "This Yu doesn't know. Perhaps the Five Elements Sect has lost control of Lingzhou and can't know the situation in Diling City!"
"By the way, since Fellow Daoist Duan doesn't know the situation in Lingzhou, why did he come to Diling City? Could it be that he was looking for Miss Lin?" Yu Fan teased Duan Qing.
The Miss Lin he was talking about was naturally Lin Ziyu.
Duan Qing rolled his eyes at Yu Fan and briefly explained to him the reason why he came to Lingzhou.
But many details were hidden in it.
"I see, I didn't expect the process to be so tortuous!" Yu Fan sighed.
"Duan is also helpless!" Duan Qing sighed and then turned back to the topic.
"The most urgent thing at the moment is to leave Diling City first!"
Although he had some complaints about Huaying, since he had promised Huaying, he naturally had to hand the things over to Shuidaozi.
When saying this, Duan Qing glanced at Bai Hao and Wu Fang, who were transformed into Yuan Wuwu.
After about two years of separation, Yu Fan had already broken through to the early stage of Linghai Realm, while Yuan Wuwu and Wu Fang were only in the early stage of Questioning Heart Realm.
With their cultivation, they were obviously a burden to him.
In addition to the grudge with Yuan Wuwu, Duan Qing only wanted to act with Yu Fan and leave the two behind.
Noticing Duan Qing's eyes, Wu Fang's heart trembled, and she quickly pleaded with Duan Qing: "Please, Daoist Duan, don't leave us two behind!"
She still remembers the scene of Duan Qing using fire magic to clear the way and kill ghosts.
Now if she wants to leave Diling City where ghosts are rampant, she can only go with Duan Qing to have hope.
"We are all here to help the Five Elements Sect. Yu thinks it's better to act together!" Yu Fan suggested at this time.
He didn't know the grudge between Duan Qing and Yuan Wuwu. He said this simply because he thought that more people would have a greater chance of breaking through.
Duan Qing glanced at Yu Fan, then his eyes fell on Yuan Wuwu, and said expressionlessly: "Since Fellow Daoist Yu said so, let's break through together."
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Duan!" Wu Fang hurriedly thanked Duan Qing.
Duan Qing didn't say anything more, took the lead to leave the courtyard, and headed towards the north gate of Diling City.
Since Yuan Wuwu was still stubborn and wanted to kill him, how could he hold back.
He agreed to let Wu Fang and Yuan Wuwu go with him, just to find an opportunity to kill Yuan Wuwu without anyone noticing!
If he didn't find an opportunity to kill Yuan Wuwu this time, with his evil qualifications, he would become a big trouble in the future.
It was inconvenient for Duan Qing to perform Bai Mengxing again when he acted with Yu Fan and others.
As a result, the speed of moving forward was inevitably greatly reduced.
Fortunately, he was cautious enough to avoid the main roads as much as possible and chose the small roads in the city where there were relatively few ghosts, so he was safe along the way.
However, this situation did not last long.
The four people walked about a mile to the north and encountered a problem.
