In a secluded small courtyard on Qiushui Peak, under a big banyan tree, Xu Honghu fiddled with the chessboard alone as if making a score.

"Why have you been there for so long?"

Hearing the footsteps coming from outside the door, he asked without raising his head.

"I encountered a strange thing."

The person who came was Xiao Yicai who came back from Wangyan Palace.

"Sit down and drink a tea first and say slowly."

Upon hearing this, Xu Honghu finally raised her head and looked at Xiao Yicai, then pointed to the small stone bench in front of her.

"Thank you, Master."

Xiao Yicai nodded and sat down.

"I asked you to help Li Yunsheng rescue the situation, but it went smoothly?"

Xu Honghu dropped a black piece on the chessboard and asked.

"Apart from Zhu Bailian being a little unreasonable, everything else is fine."

Xiao Yicai took a sip of tea.

"It's obvious that he wants to put the name of collusion with the demons on Baiyunguan's head."

He squeezed the cup in his hand hard and said.

"I'm afraid it's not just Baiyun Temple."

Xu Honghu smiled.

"He still wants to press this head on Qiu Shui's head?"

Xiao Yicai frowned.

"Xuanwu Pavilion is the closest lineage to our Qiushui and the Immortal Mansion family. Now the Immortal Mansion wants to deal with Qiushui, and his attitude is reasonable."

Xu Honghu did not answer directly.

Hearing this, Xiao Yi stood up with a whirlwind, turned around and was about to leave.

"What are you doing?"

Xu Honghu asked.

"I'll kill this ungrateful guy."

Xiao Yicai's words were not casual. At this moment, his body was filled with murderous intent.

"No hurry."

Xu Honghu patted the table.

"I haven't finished speaking yet."

He smiled.

"I actually don't quite understand."

Xiao Yicai sat down and said with confusion:

"Now the demon clan is eyeing us, why does the Immortal Palace still try every means to cause trouble for us?"

He said as he looked at Xu Honghu.

"The blessed land of spiritual veins in the ten states was divided up by major sects a thousand years ago. If the Immortal Palace wants to continue to grow, it will naturally start from us old guys. Our Qiushui occupies the largest spiritual vein in the ten states. They are envious of it for more than a day or two."

Xu Honghu held his chin with one hand and stared at the chessboard slowly and said.

"Isn't this internal strife that the demons can reap the power of the fisherman?"

Xiao Yicai was puzzled.

"My good disciple."

Xu Honghu patted Xiao Yicai's head and said:

"The ten states are no longer the ten states hundreds of years ago. The relationship between cultivators and demons is no longer simply the relationship between good and evil, enemy and friend."

"I still don't understand."

Xiao Yicai shook his head.

"It's good if you don't understand."

Xu Honghu threw the remaining chess pieces in his hand into the chess box.

"Didn't you say you just encountered something strange?"

Xu Honghu asked.

"I almost forgot."

Xiao Yicai slapped his head and said:

"Look at this."

As he said that, he put a brocade box like a sword box on the table.

"White water ruler?"

Xu Honghu found that there was a white water ruler inside.

After hearing this, Xiao Yi took out the Baishui ruler from it and handed it to Xu Honghu and said:

"Look at it."

He pointed to the golden air channel swimming like silk thread in the white water ruler.

"Golden true essence?!"

Xu Honghu naturally recognized this Baishui ruler and knew more about the function of this Baishui ruler to identify spiritual energy and turbid air.

"Whose is this?"

He asked.

"Li Yunsheng."

Xiao Yicai looked at Xu Honghu with sharp eyes and said.

"I had already gone down the mountain, but Song Shuwen hurriedly called back to Wangyan Palace, and then he showed me this."

So Xiao Yicai told Xu Honghu about the process of Song Shuwen and Liu Qingqing discovering this golden true essence.

"Everyone knows that this clear and spiritual energy cannot be compatible with the turbid energy, but the turbid energy of Li Yunsheng clearly swallowed the spiritual energy of Lord Liu."

Xiao Yicai looked puzzled.

Xu Honghu looked at the golden true essence in the Baishui ruler and said nothing for a long time.

"That can only be said that the true energy sent in by Li Yunsheng is not turbid air."

After a long time, Xu Honghu put down the white water ruler.

"The spiritual energy and the turbid energy will only repel each other and cannot be compatible. This is the ultimate truth of the great way."

He said lightly.

But even though that was said, the things in the Baishui ruler in front of him made him shake a little about the truth of this great truth.

"Actually, even if this is not the case, I originally had a strange thing related to Li Yunsheng to tell you."

After a moment of silence, Xiao Yi looked up at Xu Honghu and said.

"What's the matter?"

Xu Honghu asked.

"If you hadn't asked me to help him rescue this time, and because he saved several disciples from Lingyun Pavilion, I actually wanted him to live in Baiyuan for a while."

Xiao Yicai said with a wry smile.

"Why?"

Xu Honghu asked.

"After returning from Fengtai Mountain, I always felt like I had forgotten something, and this forgotten thing was probably related to Li Yunsheng."

After hesitating for a moment, Xiao Yi spoke.

"Forgot what?"

Xu Honghu's eyes became colder.

"right."

Xiao Yicai nodded.

"Although I don't know what I forgot, I'm sure I've definitely forgotten something, and the thing I forgot is related to Li Yunsheng."

He said extremely sure.
