I sell demon meat in the city

Chapter 186 An unexpected surprise
"So you gave him the longevity pill and then let him leave?"

Yuan Zhen shook his head. "No, that's not it. I pressed him repeatedly before my senior brother finally told me the truth."

At this point, Yuan Zhen hesitated, then looked at Xiao Qi and asked very seriously, "Are you really from that world?"

To prove herself, Xiao Qi took out a bag of spicy strips from her storage ring and handed it to him, saying, "Thank you for the tea and spirit fruit. This is a return gift."

Lu Xiaowu stared blankly at the bag of spicy strips, saying nothing.

But Yuan Zhen was relieved to see the bag of spicy strips. Then he took out a bag of instant noodles from his storage ring. Both were packaged in plastic bags, so they were obviously from the same place.

Meng Qi's mouth dropped open in surprise.

"This was given to me by my senior brother just now. He said it was given to him by Qin Yuanheng's disciple. He didn't touch it because he didn't know if it would be good for his health."

“It was right not to touch it,” Lu Xiaowu said seriously. “This stuff is addictive and has absolutely no benefit to cultivating immortality.”

"Huh? Is that so?" Yuan Zhen was startled.

Lu Xiaowu nodded solemnly, "That's right, give it to my junior sister and let her take it back."

He had long wanted to try it after seeing his master eat it so deliciously. Once he condensed his true form, he would cook it first.

Yuan Zhen hurriedly handed the instant noodles to Meng Qi, who twitched her lips and put the noodles away.

"Brother Xingyun, I only dare to tell you this because your junior sister comes from that world. Please don't tell anyone else."

"Don't worry, you don't know me well enough. I'm very tight-lipped."

Upon hearing the words "keep your mouth shut," Yuan Zhen gave his brother Xingyun a complicated look.

However, considering that the two were sworn brothers, he did not hold back, "In our Sanqing Palace, there is an ancient teleportation array that can connect to another world, oh, the world of Junior Sister Xiao Qi. When my master gave Qin Yuanheng the longevity pill, he originally planned to send him away through the teleportation array. He agreed at the time, but who knew that he would run away with his disciple that night."

Meng Qi was shocked. "You actually have a teleportation array here? What's the deal with the Wansheng Valley in the Demon Realm?"

"The Valley of Ten Thousand Saints in the Demon Realm?" Yuan Zhen was also surprised, wondering how the Demon Realm had been brought up.

Lu Xiaowu had only briefly described how he was unexpectedly taken to that world by his master, without mentioning that a large number of monsters had also gone there.

This is the perfect time to bring up this matter, and also to explain why Qin Yuanheng is wanted.

"This is outrageous! No wonder Master said he had impure thoughts. It turns out he had already colluded with the demon realm. This bastard! I should have killed him back then and cleansed the sect!"

Lu Xiaowu asked, "Is your master here?"

"He is in seclusion, and my senior brother also has guests to entertain, otherwise he would have come with me just now. Brother Xingyun, please don't leave yet. Let my senior brother see his guests off and let him meet Junior Sister Mengqi."

Of course, that's no problem.

Meng Qi was very excited. She never expected that her trip to Sanqing Palace would lead her to find a way back home.

What a pleasant surprise.

"Brother Yuanzhen, do you know where this teleportation array leads?"

After Lu Xiaowu finished asking his question, Meng Qi looked at him with hopeful eyes.

“Sanqing Mountain, our Sanqing Palace’s founding ancestor came from there, so there’s a teleportation array there too.” Meng Qi’s smile froze. If Yuan Zhen was referring to the teleportation array in Sanqing Temple, then it was bad news, because it had already been destroyed.

"Don't worry, Xiao Qi. Maybe the teleportation array here doesn't correspond to the one there."

This is unlikely, because if there were other teleportation arrays, Yu Qingge would definitely have discovered them.

About two hours later, the two were greeted by Yuan Zhen's senior brother, Yuan Ren.

When Yuan Ren saw his junior brother take out the spicy strips that Xiao Qi had given him, he immediately believed 90% of Xiao Qi's background.

He had met Qin Yuanheng and his apprentice, and seen their food; it was indeed extraordinary and not easy to imitate.

However, he didn't have a good impression of Qin Yuanheng and his disciples. Now, hearing that they had brought a large number of demons into the ordinary modern world, he frowned even more. "This is simply outrageous! Such behavior is a disgrace to our sect. Junior Sister Mengqi, are you saying that they are currently in the demon realm?"

"It should be, if the membrane wall is not opened again."

Because the membrane wall will close automatically, Meng Qi is not so worried about the Three Pure Ones and Three Falls. With her master, parents, and Uncle Zhang there, even if a few demons pass by the moment it opens, they can be stopped and killed.

"I only found out about the teleportation array in the Valley of Ten Thousand Saints in the Demon Realm when Qin Yuanheng came last time. But he's really despicable. He only said that he came through that teleportation array, but didn't mention that he sent a large number of demons there. He deserves to die!"

Yuan Ren spoke with some self-reproach, acknowledging their negligence in failing to investigate the truth and letting Qin Yuanheng go.

However, there's no point in talking about this now, and it won't be easy to catch Qin Yuanheng. He's hiding in the demon realm, and who knows how he got involved with it.

Thinking of this, Yuan Ren sighed helplessly, but still said, "Don't worry, Junior Sister Meng Qi. From today onwards, our Sanqing Palace will arrange for several disciples to go to the towns near the Demon Realm. Once we find Qin Yuanheng, we will kill him at all costs."

Meng Qi nodded, not taking it too seriously, because she felt that Qin Yuanheng was unlikely to come out of the demon realm.

But it doesn't matter, once their senior brother has condensed his true form, they will return to the demon realm.

She knew it was better to rely on herself than on others, so she decided to capture Qin Yuanheng herself.

As for whether the teleportation array of the Sanqing Palace is still usable, and where it leads, we'll only know once their sect leader emerges from seclusion.

They naturally couldn't wait there. Lu Xiaowu told Yuan Zhen that he would send him a message after his master came out of seclusion, and then he left with Xiao Qi.

After the two left, Yuan Ren asked Yuan Zhen, "Are they really disciples of Yu Qingge, the Nascent Soul cultivator of the Jade Void Sect?"

“It’s absolutely true. My fourth junior brother and I are sworn brothers with Brother Xingyun. You can ask him about this when he returns.”

"So Yu Qingge really went to that world?"

"should be."

Yuan Ren frowned and said to Yuan Zhen, "Do you know that Master plans to destroy that teleportation array after he comes out of seclusion?"

"Ah? Why?"

Yuan Ren pointed to the sky and said, “Master believes that since the Heavenly Dao has separated that world from us, it means that we should not be connected with it. For whatever reason, we should sever ties with it.”

It was because Qin Yuanheng's arrival caused their master some trouble, and not wanting any further consequences, that they came up with the idea of ​​simply destroying the teleportation array.

But this was merely self-deception, because Qin Yuanheng hadn't passed through the Sanqing Palace's formation. It was precisely because of this that the Sanqing Palace Sect Master had hesitated to act, and was also considering a way to resolve the problem once and for all.
