Chapter 151: Shadow of the Clone
Xuan Shang and Qing Ming received news that the person behind the scenes would take action tonight, and came to inform Pei Cangli.
I saw that there was still blood on her chest and she was lying there, her life or death unknown.
"Little White Flower! What happened to her? Why is she hurt?"
"Si Yunzhou, didn't you have something to do with her tonight? Tell me, why did she become like this?"
Qing Ming went straight forward and grabbed Si Yunzhou's injured arm, asking, "Is this how you take care of her?"
Cang Cang hurriedly stepped forward to pull the two apart and explained what happened in the evening. Only then did they realize that Pei Cangli was still affected by the illusion.
Fortunately, she took the spiritual weapon that had been contracted, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous. Several people also understood that they could no longer ask Pei Cangli about the illusion.
Xuan Shang told them the news he had received, and they all began to discuss countermeasures. Although Pei Cangli was currently injured, the person behind the scenes still had to be caught.
Xuan Shang and Qing Ming started arguing again about Pei Cangli's safety, and finally decided that Cang Cang would stay and be responsible for protecting Pei Cangli.
When Xuan Shang, Qing Ming and others arrived that night, there was only a phantom of the clone there.
Seeing that Pei Cangli was not among the visitors, the clone laughed and said, "Where is Pei Cangli? Why didn't the proud son of heaven that you mentioned come?"
"My sister is delayed by something, we are enough to deal with you."
"The sacred beast Suzaku, even you chose her. But it's a pity that the master you chose doesn't seem to be very good."
Hongyu threw a ball of fire at him and cursed, "Sister is a thousand times and ten thousand times stronger than you, but you don't even dare to show your true face to others."
"Really? I heard that after she practiced the ruthless way, she became a completely different person. Is she starting to have problems with her memory now?"
Xuan Shang and the others looked at each other. Their first feeling was that there was a traitor among them, but because of their memory problems, even Qing Ming didn't know.
They had just heard Pei Cangli mention it himself, and then they received news in the afternoon that the person behind the scenes had taken action.
"It's you? What did you do to Pei Cangli?"
Xuan Shang quickly reacted and realized that in addition to the traitor, there was another person who was also very clear, and that was the person who actually harmed Pei Cangli.
"Yes, there are smart ones. To tell you the truth, I deliberately exposed the flaw last time. I didn't expect that Pei Cangli's weakness was this."
Qing Ming stared at the phantom of the clone viciously, gritting his teeth and asked, "What did you do to her?"
"Isn't this the Demon Emperor? I didn't do anything to her. I just used the illusion to let her practice a set of exercises. I guess she was the one who survived the thunder tribulation in the Void Refining Stage last time."
"I gave her a great gift, but this gift has a small flaw. Does she still think that she is practicing the Way of Mercilessness?"
"You sinister villain, if anything goes wrong with Xiaoli, I won't forgive you."
"You are just a weapon spirit, and you dare to speak so arrogantly. Without further ado, three days later, one of you will come here and bring Tianqingzhu with you. I will tell you how to save Pei Cangli."
Qing Ming asked in confusion, "What is Tianqing Bamboo? And why should we believe that you will save Pei Cangli?"
"What is Tianqing Bamboo? Someone among you will know it. As for saving Pei Cangli, you can only choose to trust me. If you don't believe me, you can go back and see if her cultivation level has started to decline at this time."
After saying this, the phantom of the clone disappeared, and everyone hurried back to check on Pei Cangli's condition.
Sure enough, it was exactly as that person said. Although Pei Cangli had not woken up yet, his cultivation had dropped to the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm.
Because Cang Cang and Si Yunzhou didn't go, they didn't know Pei Cangli's cultivation level at this time, and why he suddenly fell down.
After knowing the whole story, Cang Cang and Zi Mei looked at each other. They knew that Tian Qingzhu and the others did have it. It was stolen by their master a long time ago after the auction at Tianxin Tower.
It was a task of the system at that time. Only they and Hongyu knew about it. Now Pei Cangli has not woken up yet, and they also know the importance of this thing.
But if they were to disregard Pei Cangli's life for this thing, they would never do it.
But that phantom clone may not really have a way to save Pei Cangli. What should I do?
Qingming was still racking his brains over what the green bamboo was that day and how to get it within three days?
Then Xuan Shang said, "Tianqing Bamboo, also known as Jinzhiyu, appeared at the Tianxin Tower auction in Xianrenju many years ago. Unfortunately, someone took it away and it has disappeared."
Qing Ming asked, "Have you also looked for this thing?"
"That's right. It was a mission assigned by the Ghost King back then. Unfortunately, I was a step too late. At that time, I also searched for the soul of the monk who took the photo of this item, but unfortunately, I found nothing."
"Even you haven't found it? Then isn't this Tianqing Bamboo even harder to find now?"
Xuan Shang nodded silently, but he didn't know what the magical use of this sky blue bamboo was and why so many people were looking for it?
"What should we do after three days? Besides Tianqingzhu, there are other candidates."
Hearing the question raised by Si Yunzhou, everyone fell into deep thought. Now no one knew where Tian Qingzhu was, so they might have to compete for the selection again.
As expected, Xuan Shang said that he would go alone as soon as he finished speaking. Qing Ming was unconvinced and asked why shouldn't he go?
The people under the ghost and demon tribes also began to argue fiercely for their masters.
Cang Cang gave Hong Yu a wink, and he and Zi Mei quietly went out. Hong Yu pulled the Nether Flower and also retreated.
The four of them went straight into the space and began to discuss the matter of the Azure Bamboo. When Youminghua heard that the Azure Bamboo was actually obtained by the boss, he instantly felt very proud.
After all, something that even Lord Rakshasa couldn't find was obtained by the boss who was only in the Foundation Establishment stage at the time. How could he not be proud?
But in the current situation, we can’t just tell anyone about it. The Tianqing Bamboo is with them. Otherwise, if we ask them why they have this thing, what will they say?
If only the master were awake, his puppet technique has been perfected, and with the power of chaos, he can make the fake look real.
It has been a long time since I last saw the master's puppet. Thinking of this, Cang Cang asked the others, "Have you seen the master's puppet recently?"
"It seems that I haven't seen Xiaoli's puppets since the last time I personally instructed the demons."
"Me too. My sister used to use puppets to keep watch at night, but now it seems like I haven't seen her use one for a while."
"What about puppets? Boss has changed a lot since he started practicing that technique. It's normal that he doesn't need puppets anymore."
"The key now is what to do in three days? Should we hand over the Azure Bamboo? And the boss's cultivation keeps decreasing. In the end, will he..."
"Youminghua, don't say those discouraging words. Sister will be fine."
"Yes, Master, you made it through such a difficult time last time, so you will definitely be able to do it this time too."
"Xiao Liji has her own destiny, we have to believe in her."
