I imitate others' cultivation, and I will never reason with you.

Chapter 188 The Demon Cultivator Arrives
Ruan Xing was thinking about going out one of these days to visit Qin Taihe in Xizhou to ask him about fish farming, and to think of a way to get the Shenhua technique from the Tongxuan Sutra.

Suddenly, the air around me appeared like ripples.

Jian Lai came out.

During these three years, he stayed in the charity cemetery with the demon disciples in the Xumi Realm, practicing with the rich Yin energy and improving his cultivation to the Nascent Soul stage.

This is the advantage of puppets. There is no need to go through tribulations, no bottlenecks, and everything will come naturally when there is enough Yin energy.

However, the puppet could not use the heavenly tribulation to condense the golden elixir, nor could it rebuild its physical body.

Otherwise, Jian Lai would have been able to free himself from the restraint in his throat and speak.

However, after reaching the Nascent Soul stage, Jian Lai's puppet body became much stronger and no longer broke arms or limped as easily as before.

If there is a chance, maybe we can do some research and change the runes on Jianlai's body. Maybe Jianlai will become more powerful.

The runes on his body were drawn by the Red-headed Taoist priest. How deep could a mortal like him understand the Heavenly Rank Technique? He was just copying. Now the runes could no longer keep up with Jian Lai's puppet nature. When he repaired Jian Lai's body two days ago, he had to add a few more strokes.

I just want to completely redraw it, but I don't have any ideas yet.

"What's wrong, Jianlai?" Ruan Xing touched Jianlai's face with his hand.

His skin was as smooth and cool as jade, as if he was handling a piece of the finest white jade.

Jianlai rubbed her affectionately, then told Ruan Xing his purpose.

"Master...someone is looking for you down the mountain..."

If it was simply someone looking for her, such as the matter in Yunyang City and Huayang City, Jian Lai would not come back to Xumi Realm to find her. Hu San would let the disciples guarding the mountain gate stop that person and let them wait.

Ruan Xing narrowed her eyes, as if the person she had been waiting for had finally arrived.

She said softly, "Is it a demon cultivator?"

Jian Lai nodded.

The fairy was a little angry when she heard this, "How dare the demon cultivators come to the Immortal Sect to cause trouble? I will go and meet them."

Just now, when Ruan Xing and Sun Xian were discussing finances, the fairy couldn't get a word in. She knew nothing about it and could only listen silently.

Now that I hear that a fight might happen, I feel a sense of mission.

Under Ruan Xing's control, the evil disciples of Fengling Yueying Sect have only been practicing in the Yizhuang Cemetery until now, and have never had the opportunity to commit crimes.

But the demon cultivators in the outside world are different. Which demon cultivator who can cultivate to a high-level cultivator is not a cold-blooded, ruthless, and cruel demon?

Based on the stereotypes from thousands of years ago, fairies hate those evil demons.

Ruan Xing held his forehead with his hand. He didn't expect that the fairy who looked so cold and elegant was actually a warmonger.

Also, why are you speaking in a gangster style? Don't learn strange words from the gangster disciples under you!
"It shouldn't be. If a fight really broke out, Jianlai wouldn't come and tell me. Instead, he would tell me directly through telepathy." Ruan Xing said.

Jianlai couldn't speak, and even when he ran in front of Ruan Xing, he still used his mind to sense. He came over just so that Ruan Xing would touch him while talking.

It looks like a cute puppy acting coquettishly to its owner.

"If I really need you, I will call you through the mind link. Don't worry, the Demon Lord is still here if worst comes to worst." Ruan Xing comforted the fairy and got up to leave the Xumi Realm.

Although Ruan Xing did not teach the Demon Lord the skills of the Netherworld Ghost Record, the Demon Lord was extremely smart and learned how to use the devouring method to convert into Yin Qi without any instruction.

In the past it was about converting magic power, then it was about converting spiritual power, and now it has become about converting Yin energy.

It can be imagined that the Demon Lord has studied his own skills very thoroughly, which allows him to control the transformation at will.

Unfortunately, it was not convenient for him to appear in the outside world, and Ruan Xing would not allow him to enter the underground bubble of the Xumi Realm. He could only eat some soil with the scent of the barrier tree dug out from the underground palace, and some miscellaneous useless things such as the materials that Ruan Xing scrapped when refining equipment. After a lot of hard work, he could only reach the late stage of the Golden Core.

This also made the Demon Lord depressed and full of resentment.

If Ruan Xing was not in the late Nascent Soul stage and suppressed him by a large realm, he would not know the secret of controlling the puppet, otherwise he would have rebelled and stepped on Ruan Xing long ago.

After returning to Fengling Yueying Sect, Hu San was already waiting in front. After seeing Ruan Xing, he followed.

"Where is the person?" Ruan Xing asked.

"Two people came, a man and a woman. Their cultivation was about the same as mine, and they didn't use any magic to hide or cover up. Anyone who saw them could tell they were demon cultivators. They said we could wait in front of the mountain gate, but I was afraid of being seen, so I asked them to come in and wait in front of the square. Hall Master Cui knew how to hide, so I asked her to hide aside and watch over the two of them."

Hu San said in a low voice.

Ruan Xing praised him, "Well done."

It is indeed necessary not to let the two of them be seen by others in front of the mountain gate.

It would be terrible if the Fengling Yueying Sect was identified as colluding with the devil cultivators.

At present, she does not have the strength to go against the entire world of immortal cultivation.

I just don't know what the purpose of these two people meeting her is.

Looking at the pitifully few points in the simulator, she sighed, recharged the last 12,000 spirit stones in her storage bag, and then opened the real-life simulation.

[Simulation in progress]

Ruan Xing walked to the front of the square and waved to let Hu San step aside. Then he saw two demon cultivators in front of the square looking around boredly.

Hu San had taken all of his disciples to other places, and the square was empty except for them and Cui Yurong who was hiding somewhere.

The man had an ordinary appearance, with slightly upturned eyes, which gave him a sinister temperament. The woman had her hair tied up high in a side bun, with a few brown stone tassels hanging down, and her dazzling red lips were slightly raised, "The Sect Master is so arrogant."

Ruan Xing did not respond to this, but tried to pull the rhythm of the conversation back to his side, "You guys come here so openly, are you really not afraid of death at all?"

From the northern border to the southern province, there are so many sects and towns to pass through along the way.

I don't know if they have been discovered.

The female cultivator chuckled, "Who wouldn't be afraid of death? The Sect Master doesn't need to know how we got here, but the Sect Master must know that being open and honest shows our sincerity. This time, we are here only for negotiation, not for anything else."

"Are you so sure that I will meet you, instead of notifying other sects to kill or capture you right before the mountain gate? It is difficult for demon cultivators to move out of the northern border on Xianyuan Continent now."

now?

Ruan Xing used this word deliberately. The female cultivator had indeed noticed it, and a light flashed in her eyes, and her smile deepened a little, "If the sect master wanted to call for notifications from other sects, he should have done so long ago when he occupied Liuyang Study and discovered the Xumi Realm. He would never have waited until now."

Ruan Xing sighed, "You are here for the Xumi Realm."

"Isn't it the same for the Sect Master? Otherwise, why would we waste our efforts to annex a small Liuyang Study, which has neither treasures nor money? Besides, a few decades ago, there was no Fengling Yueying Sect in Nanzhou. I'm afraid they are just using this to attract attention, right?"

Ruan Xing's eyes flashed.

This female cultivator seemed to think that she was a member of a certain force that concealed her name and occupied the Xumi Realm.

After all, it would not be nice to tell others about the matter of Xumi Realm, as it would affect the reputation of the sect.

Ruan Xing then put on the identity that the female cultivator had given her and coughed lightly, "No need to waste words, just tell me why you're here."

The two demon cultivators looked at each other, and the male cultivator said, "We have to see the Sumeru Tree first."

They were originally here to inspect the Sumeru Tree under the orders of the Holy Demon Lord. Regardless of whether today's talks were successful or not, they had to at least see the Sumeru Tree.

"No."

But there was no way Ruan Xing would agree to that.

What a joke! I have the initiative in my hands now, why should I give in?

Moreover, the barrier tree is already dead, and there are only a few ashes left. The small seeds are only slightly larger than the small ones, so they cannot be fake.

The demon cultivator also knew that the Fengling Yueying Sect was not the Liuyang Study and had no cooperation with them, so it was impossible for them to easily agree to go see the Sumeru Tree.

What they don't know is which force released the Fengling Yueying Sect to pick peaches, and how much the sect leader knows about the Sumeru Tree.

There was a long silence.

The male cultivator asked again: "Master, do you know the origin of the Xumi Tree?"

Ruan Xing smiled coldly, turned around with his hands behind his back, and a strong wind passed through the square, instantly sweeping the male cultivator into the air. Caught off guard, he could only adjust his posture in mid-air and tried to use his magic power to stabilize his body, but he was interrupted by the Source Breaking Technique. He could only fall heavily to the ground, and a trace of blood flowed from his tightly pursed lips.

"It turns out that the strong are no longer respected in the North." Ruan Xing turned his back and said, "I am asking you, not you asking me, do you understand?"

This show of force surprised the two demon cultivators, but also made them more cautious.

Both of them are only in the Jindan stage, why do they speak in such an attitude in front of the Yuanying stage?

The female cultivator lowered her head slightly, a barely perceptible venom flashed in her eyes, but she said respectfully: "Master, please don't blame me. I'm used to being lax in the North. It's us who are being rude."

Seeing that Ruan Xing had no expression, she continued, "We came to Liuyang Study to inspect the progress of the Xumi Tree under the order of the Holy Demon Lord. After entering Nanzhou, we learned about the change of ownership. But if we return now, it would be a wasted trip. We have to wait for more than 30 years before we can enter Nanzhou. We can only take the initiative to meet with you, Sect Master."

She was very sure that if the Fengling Yueying Sect did not expose the Xumi Realm, they would definitely meet them, so she boldly revealed her identity as a demon cultivator in front of the mountain gate.

"It's really bold." Ruan Xing smiled, "Who is your current Saint Demon Lord?"

A look of pride emerged on the female cultivator's face, "It's Demon Lord Hong Zhao Xie Yao."

Demon Lord Hongzhao? Xie Yao?
Who is that?
Ruan Xing felt a little confused.

But he didn't show it, and naturally changed the subject, "Besides seeing the Sumeru Tree, what else did you originally have as your mission?"

“This…” The female cultivator was a little embarrassed, but she still said it out loud, “If the Xumi tree still only grows roots without sprouting new buds, Liuyang Study will have to hand over the Xumi tree, and let us in the North Territory find a solution.”

"Oh?" Ruan Xing raised an eyebrow, "What if he refuses to hand it over?"

The female cultivator said sternly, "Our Saint Demon Lord is a powerful being in the Guixu period. The small Liuyang Study Room can't even match him. Even in today's cultivation world, how many immortals in the Guixu period can be found? If Liuyang Study Room refuses to return the Xumi Tree, then within ten years, the Saint Demon Lord will definitely flatten Nanzhou!"

"What a big tone! I won't return it. Just let her conquer Nanzhou!" Ruan Xing laughed and was about to drive the two out of Fengling Yueying Sect.

Seeing Ruan Xing so confident, the female cultivator's eyes became uncertain.

Shouldn't it be? She had heard accurate news that there were no living people in the Guixu stage in the world of immortal cultivation.

The closest one to him was Immortal Lord Guangyou of the Xuanbing Sect, but news of his ascension spread decades ago and there has been no news of him since.

Ascension? Who would believe that? It must be the return to the abyss.

But the young sect leader in front of her was so stubborn that she felt a little unconfident. Could it be that there really was a hidden Guixu Stage in the world of immortal cultivation?

If there is, it must have come from the Hidden Sect. Only the Hidden Sect has no source of information.

Or maybe, the leader of the Fengling Yueying Sect is from the Hidden Sect!
Well, this time, not only might she not be punished, but she might even be able to make a contribution, because she has found a way to contact the Hidden Sect!
The female cultivator suppressed her ecstasy and spoke anxiously, "I spoke out of turn, Sect Master. I was talking about Liuyang Study just now, not you! Even if the owner has changed, our deal can still go on. Liuyang Study has not been able to make the Xumi Tree sprout new buds for thousands of years, which shows that they are incompetent. If Sect Master has a way, our Saint Demon Lord will naturally support it!"

"How to support?"

The female cultivator sorted out her thoughts and said slowly, "Six Suns Study has asked the North for spiritual stones many times, saying that they are for the Xumi Tree. In order for the Xumi Tree to sprout, Saint Demon Lord has invested too much and will never allow the possibility of failure. If you need anything, you can tell me one by one, and I will report to Saint Demon Lord when I return."

"Tsk, that's too troublesome." Ruan Xing shook his head.

Although this female cultivator has only reached the Golden Core Stage, she seems to be the more respected of the two.

Since she is just a small golden elixir, she should not be particularly old, but she knows so many secret things and can tell them one by one thousands of years ago.

Is it because this matter is no secret in the North?
Or is she actually a relative of the Saint Demon Lord?

However, the family tradition in the North should not be particularly prevalent, right? Judging from Xie Feng's attitude and Xie Huai's experience, they don't seem to attach much importance to their relatives and descendants.

It doesn’t matter if you live or die.

A beautiful state of mind.

By the way, you can ask who Demon Lord Xie Yao is!
Ruan Xing said only one sentence and then fell into deep thought. The female cultivator waited anxiously for the result of Ruan Xing's thinking, while the male cultivator had wiped the blood from his mouth, silently climbed up and stood beside the female cultivator.

After thinking for a few seconds, Ruan Xing said, "Wait a moment, I'll let you meet someone."

After saying that, she summoned the Demon Lord over through the mind link.

The Demon Lord was playing with a snake when he heard it. The snake under him was carrying him half-dead, with no light in its pair of vertical pupils.

Full of hardships in life.

Damn it, it’s too harsh on snakes!
As soon as the Demon Lord arrived at the square, his eyes lit up with some surprise, "Is dinner ready?"
