There is a progress bar in my cultivation of immortality

Chapter 23 Encounter (please read and collect)
  Tea room private room.

"Let me tell you, talking to Mr. Guan is a waste of time. It's better to move on to the next mission." Zuo Suzi couldn't wait to express his thoughts as soon as he sat down.

Xia Yao was still thinking calmly, but she didn't express an opinion. Feng Miao seemed very unwilling, but she was also considering Zuo Suzi's proposal. They were doing the task to exchange for foundation building materials, not because they had any deep grudges.

Wang Ping looked at the silent crowd and asked: "What mission did you take on, and why did you come here after me?"

"The task of missing persons is a task entrusted by the Mozhou Road Governor's Yamen. When one county was investigating two cases of missing persons, it accidentally hit the black market for human trafficking, which also involved..."

Feng Miao frowned when she said this, obviously thinking of a bad scene, and then continued: "You should know that there are monsters who have always used people as food, just like we eat chickens, ducks and fish."

Now Wang Ping and Zhao Qing also frowned slightly, knowing what Feng Miao said about human trafficking.

"We followed this line and found an underground warehouse. When we raided and arrested people, the snake demon they were in charge of ran away. He swam along the underground undercurrent to the Five Gods River. We followed closely behind him and chased him for ten seconds. Ten nights later, we finally let him hide in the mountains and forests in the north of Shu County. We chased him in and encountered a lot of monsters blocking the way. When we rushed out, we immediately wanted to ask the county government to organize people to search the mountain, but they refused. "

As Feng Miao spoke, she lightly knocked on the Eight Immortals table with her fist. Every time she hit it, she left a scorched black mark on the table.

"Sister, fellow Taoist, don't be angry. Don't give me money when the task is not completed." Zuo Suzi hurriedly persuaded people.

"There has to be an explanation for this..."

Xia Yao finally spoke, and she said calmly: "Since we discovered the matter, we can't settle it like this. If we turn around and leave now, I'm worried that we will be devoured by inner demons while building the foundation, causing all our efforts to be in vain!"

Zuo Suzi was a little annoyed when he heard this, walked to the window and swore.

If the three of them hadn't had a bad breath in their hearts that they couldn't swallow, they wouldn't have pursued them so far.

"Is it okay to use Daozang Hall to search the mountain by force?" Wang Ping asked.

Feng Miao stared at Wang Ping and replied: "It's okay, but if we delay it any longer, we might as well go back to Mozhou Road and look for clues again..."

"I have the authority of the sixth seat of Daozang Palace. I can issue orders in Fucheng to recruit all Qi Refiners in the surrounding areas..." Wang Ping's words made the other three people stunned.

"Haven't you been practicing hard in the mountains?" Feng Miao was a little jealous.

"Some time ago, we heard that two Sixth Seats were killed in the battle against the dragon in the north. We are still discussing who can become the new Sixth Seat!"

Zuo Suzi also sat back, "I didn't expect one of them to be you."

Wang Ping was a little embarrassed by the reaction of the three people. He explained: "Qianmu Temple originally had two seats."

When Feng Miao heard this, her jealousy was already reflected on her face. After all, she was a disciple of the Zhenyang Sect and had worked hard for Daozang Hall for ten years without even seeing the shadow of the sixth seat.

Zuo Suzi sighed repeatedly and muttered "unfair".

Xia Yao was still as calm as water, staring at Wang Ping and said: "You can issue orders, but you have to pay corresponding remuneration. We cannot afford this money."

Hearing this, the other two people nodded quickly.

Wang Ping looked at Zhao Qing, who smiled and said: "Brother, there are actually other ways. There is no need to use the power of Daozang Palace."

"What method?" Feng Miao asked.

Zhao Qing tugged on his clean and tidy sleeves and explained: "There is a saying...Courtesy first, then troops. When we are doing things on other people's territory, etiquette must be done first. If etiquette doesn't work, then we can only recruit troops." He met the eyes of the three people and showed a confident smile, "Sanhe Temple in Sanhe Mansion is an ally with us. If you are willing to come forward, senior brother, I can invite them to be the head of the inner courtyard. As long as we talk about Sanhe Temple, Shu County It’s just a matter of moving your fingers.”

"But...there's something to say first..."

Zhao Qing looked at Feng Miao, "The reason why Shu County is blocking Sou Shan is simply because the clans in the county have business dealings with the monsters. Therefore, it is best for everyone to turn a blind eye when Sou Shan is here."

"Okay, we only want that snake demon!"

Feng Miao made a decisive commitment.

At this time, Xia Yao, who had always acted indifferently, had a flash of displeasure on his face, but he quickly hid it, but was caught by Wang Ping. This Taoist nun turned a blind eye to Dissatisfied with the approach.

When Zhao Qing saw Feng Miao's statement, he stood up and cupped his hands and said, "Okay, I'll rush to Sanhe Temple to deliver my greetings. I promise to invite the master of Sanhe Temple within two days!"

Xia Yao looked at Zhao Qing's leaving figure and seemed to want to say something, but she didn't say anything until Zhao Qing left completely.

"Taoist Master Changqing, do you Qianmu Temple still accept disciples?" Zuo Suzi asked in a joking tone.

"I have been recruiting disciples recently."

"Can you see me?"

Just as Wang Ping was about to answer, Xia Yao stood up suddenly and said, "The river shrimp I arranged in the Five Gods River detected the aura of the snake demon."

When she finished speaking, people had already jumped out of the window of the box, and the other two followed closely behind. Wang Ping, who stayed at the end, put down the tea money and jumped out of the window, while the three in front had already crossed the city wall.

Wang Ping first woke up Yu Lian, did a divination for himself, and confirmed that there was no problem. He then applied an 'invisibility technique' to himself, and then pursued the three of them in the direction they were going.

The 'Invisibility Technique' is very simple to use. You only need to use the compatibility between yourself and the spiritual energy to hide your body in the flowing spiritual energy, making it invisible to ordinary mortals.

As soon as they crossed the city wall, Yu Lian warned: "There are so many demonic scents!"

Wang Ping performed divination again, then his spiritual energy circulated throughout his body, and he kicked hard with his feet...

The next moment, his ears were filled with the sound of howling wind, and his dynamic vision changed rapidly. More than ten breaths later, he saw a wide river. At the end of his sight, dozens of monsters were causing mischief in the river, and Feng Miao and the three people on the river were Confrontation.

After hesitating for a moment, Wang Ping used his strength with his feet and jumped a few times to land on Xia Yao's side, revealing his body.

A snake demon in the middle of the river saw Wang Ping landing on the ground and said in a sharp voice: "Hey, we even found helpers. It doesn't matter. No matter how many helpers come, you will all die today. Don't blame me, blame... "

Before the snake demon finished speaking, Xia Yao seized an opportunity, quickly pulled out a magic spell with his left hand, and shouted at the snake demon who was talking wildly: "Bind!"

The calm river water around the snake demon's body suddenly seemed to be alive. In the blink of an eye, it turned into long ropes, tightly restraining the snake demon and throwing him to the shore!
  Zuo Suzi and Feng Miao looked happy. Feng Miao had an idea in her hand and took out something like a fishing net from her storage bag. She jumped up and opened the fishing net, catching the snake demon in the blink of an eye.

At this moment, Yu Lian suddenly said: "I feel strong malice, we have to escape!"

Wang Ping was startled, and while fleeing, he was ready to warn the three of them, but at this moment, he smelled an unpleasant fishy smell in his nose.

The next moment, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a huge bloody skull crashing towards him...
