In those years when I was a mortal and a demon

"Senior Brother Xiang, are you willing to accompany me? Aren't you usually unwilling to interfere in the affairs of the world of immortality?"

"That's for others. Junior brother Lu, you have been friends with me for hundreds of years, and you are still willing to call me 'senior brother'. Now that junior brother is in trouble, how can I, as a senior brother, stand by and watch?" Xiang Laogui shook his head and said evilly. Something happened.

"Just tell me what you want from me. As long as I can do it, I won't shirk it." Naturally, Lu Yuan didn't think that Old Ghost Xiang would be so kind. There must be something waiting for him, so he simply made it clear.

"Junior Brother, why are you looking at someone like this? I don't mean to threaten you, I just have a small matter that I want to know about. If Junior Brother tells you the truth, I will accompany you."

"As long as it doesn't involve my personal privacy, I won't hide it from you." Lu Yuan thought for a while and decided to see what Xiang Laogui had in mind first.

"Uh..." Hearing that Lu Yuan was so careful, Xiang Laogui's face, which had been calm just now, became a little embarrassed.

"Hmph! I wonder how could Senior Brother Xiang be so kind? His feelings are really trying to get in my way." Seeing this, Lu Yuan couldn't help but tease.

"Junior brother, I misunderstood. It's just something I want to ask. I don't know if it involves your privacy.

Forget it, I'll just say it straight away, it's up to you whether Junior Brother is willing to answer. Of course, it's up to me whether to help. "Xiang Laogui hesitated for a while, and then said simply.

"Senior brother, please tell me first."

"I want to know how the Purgatory Tower came to be in the hands of my junior brother. This Purgatory Tower was originally brought from the lower world by Demon Concubine Linglong in ancient times. However, after the First World War in ancient times, Demon Concubine Linglong was suppressed in Kunwu Mountain, but the Purgatory Tower was Missing.

The most important thing is that the Purgatory Tower is different from ordinary Tongtian Lingbao. Not to mention you, junior brother, even if I, senior brother, am at the stage of becoming a god, I cannot exert one-tenth of the power of this treasure.

Unless you have a monk who has surpassed the level of a god to help you with the sacrifice, it is impossible for your junior brother to win with the Purgatory Tower in a battle with Hu Lao Mo. "When Xiang Laogui said this, he suddenly stopped and looked at Lu Yuan with a half-smile.

Xiang Laogui's words and gestures really shocked Lu Yuan's heart.

How does this old guy know so much!

"I don't quite understand what Senior Brother Xiang said. I got the Purgatory Tower inadvertently in an ancient place. I really don't know the origin. As for the god-transforming monks who can't exert their power, that means that my Purgatory Tower has nothing to do with Senior Brother Xiang. It's not the same treasure he's talking about, maybe it's an imitation." Lu Yuan thought for a while and found a reasonable reason.

"Junior brother, please stop doing this. Do you think I can't tell if it's a replica? Do you want me to make it more clear?" Xiang Laogui glanced sideways at Lu Yuan.

"What else does senior brother know?" Lu Yuan thought for a while and asked tentatively.

"I have been to the Falling Demon Valley and saw the Nine True Demon-Suppressing Formation, the Northern Yuanguang Passage, and the abandoned Lingmiao Garden behind it. The little power of space left in it is the same as when the Linglong Demon Concubine broke through the world with the help of the Reverse Spirit Passage. Very similar, but different.

If my guess is correct, when you were in the Fallen Demon Valley, there should have been at least one senior from the lower realm in ancient times who returned to the spirit world. This Purgatory Tower should be the one who helped you perform the sacrifice. "After speaking to the old ghost, he looked directly into Lu Yuan's eyes.

"How did Senior Brother Xiang know these things!" Lu Yuan looked a little gloomy.

As for what happened in Falling Demon Valley, looking at the human world, only Lu Yuan and Brother Tie Zi, as well as Dayan Shenjun, who was imprisoned in Qiling Island by him, knew.

Lu Yuan believed that Brother Tiezi and Dayan Shenjun would never be revealed. Could it be that Xiang Laogui took action against them and obtained part of the inside story by some means?

After all, Xiang Laogui has unpredictable powers, so it's hard to say whether he really has such a method.

Thinking of this, Lu Yuan was a little cautious. The mind is locked on the golden gourd, and the second Yuanying is ready to leave the body at any time.

If it is as expected, then you must take action!

The atmosphere in the stone pavilion was so solemn for a moment that Xiang Laogui's expression began to change.

"Junior brother, please don't get me wrong. What I said today was all confirmed by my guesses after reading some of the ancient books and taking a trip to the Fallen Demon Valley.

Although many thousands of years have passed since the ancient battle, the incident was forgotten many generations ago. However, some hidden sects that have been passed down to this day still retain records about the battle that year. "Xiang Laogui obviously didn't want to fall out with Lu Yuan, so he quickly explained.

After hearing what the old ghost said, Lu Yuan's wariness relaxed a little.

Xiang Laogui's expression softened, and he said kindly again: "Junior brother, I am not plotting your treasure. You also know that for me now, there is nothing more important than ascending to the spiritual world.

I just want to know how that person broke through the boundary and left, and can I also use this method? "After saying that, Xiang Laogui said nothing more, as if waiting for Lu Yuan's answer.

Lu Yuan, unable to figure out Xiang Laogui's thoughts, fell silent for a while. He knew that Xiang Laogui would not give up until he pried something out of his mouth. If you refuse to answer on the grounds that your privacy is involved, I'm afraid there is a real risk of breaking up.

It seems that I can only make up some half-truths and lies to fool me. Anyway, even if I tell the truth, I'm afraid Xiang Laogui won't believe it all.

After a while, Lu Yuan sighed.

"Forget it, since senior brother has already guessed it, there is no need for me to hide it."

Next, he talked about the things that should have no regrets back then, avoiding the important ones, and telling the whole thing basically confirmed Xiang Laogui's guess.

As for how Ying Wuhui returned to the spirit world, Lu Yuanyan said that he borrowed a boundary-separating magic weapon like an inverse spirit plate. Important secrets such as Ying Wuhui's identity and how Brother Cheng finally risked his life to follow him were not revealed at all.

"A magic weapon similar to the counter-spiritual disk?" Xiang Old Ghost murmured, with disappointment and suspicion in his eyes, obviously not fully believing what Lu Yuan said.

"Didn't that senior leave any backup plan for his junior brother to ascend to the spiritual world?" Xiang Laogui suddenly said slowly and logically.

"No, but he also mentioned the method of space nodes. It's just that at that time, junior brother, I had just advanced to Nascent Soul, so I didn't take it to heart." Lu Yuan said, showing a look of regret.

Lu Yuan also knew that Xiang Laogui might not even be able to hear a single punctuation mark when talking nonsense like this. He quickly said: "Brother Xiang, I have said everything that I should say. Of course, there are still some things that I shouldn't say. Due to the senior's instructions, I will not say it anyway. Brother Xiang, what happened on Sanxian Island It’s best if you’re willing to help, if not I’ll go by myself.”

After speaking, Lu Yuan closed his eyes and acted as if he was not prepared to say more on this issue.

Seeing this, Old Ghost rolled his eyes, but for some reason he didn't bother anymore, and his face returned to its original smiling expression.

"Okay, junior brother, if you don't want to say it, there should be difficulties, so I won't make it difficult for you. As for Sanxian Island, now that I have spoken, how can I go back on my words?"

This result surprised Lu Yuan, because judging from various signs, Xiang Laogui seemed to have some back-up plans. But he still gave up questioning easily, not to mention readily agreed to accompany him to Sanxian Island.

"Thank you so much, Senior Brother Xiang." Although Lu Yuan had doubts, he could only put them aside for the time being.

The most important thing today is to get the ancient demon's true blood.

As long as he advances to become a god, even if Xiang Laogui really has some plans, there is no need to be afraid of him.
