Chapter 1778 Come out to greet me
Chapter 1778 Come out to greet me
After Palace Master Cao returned from the Four Symbols Holy Land, he had been thinking about how to get 100 million spirit stones from Feng Xi.
He remembered that Fengxi said she wanted to talk to him by the pond, so he decided to call her over and see what happened next.
So he sent someone to call Fengxi.
Just as he was thinking about how to trick Fengxi when she came, someone came to visit.
He opened the gate and saw that it was Elder Fan.
Palace Master Cao was a little puzzled. Why did Elder Fan, who was usually taciturn, suddenly come to see him?
However, Elder Fan is from Ziwei Palace, and he is also the Palace Master of Ziwei Palace, so he naturally cannot turn people away.
Sect Master Qiu now dislikes him. If he doesn't protect his subordinates well, his position as Palace Master will be even less secure.
So, he smiled and let the person into the house.
As soon as he entered the room, Elder Fan explained his purpose.
"Palace Master, I went out traveling some time ago and got some good stuff. Since you are free today, I brought it to you."
When Palace Master Cao heard that there was something good, he smiled more sincerely than before.
Elder Fan immediately took out a jade box and opened it carefully. Inside was a small purple fruit, about the size of a fingertip.
Palace Master Cao stood up suddenly!
"Purple Spiked Scrophulariaceae Fruit?!"
Elder Fan nodded: "Palace Master has good eyesight, it is indeed the Purple Spiked Scrophulariaceae Fruit! If it weren't for this fruit, I wouldn't have been injured by the guardian monster..."
Palace Master Cao recalled that Elder Fan was indeed injured when he returned from his last trip and had been recuperating in seclusion recently.
He immediately pretended to refuse, "Old Fan, you worked so hard to get this purple spiked fig fruit, how can I have the nerve to take it? You should take it back and use it yourself!"
Elder Fan hesitated for a moment before saying:
"Palace Master, I am here for a request. I have been promoted to elder for many years, but I have never made any contribution to the sect. If it is convenient for you, please assign me some work some other day, and I will feel at ease."
Palace Master Cao understood immediately!
This is a wish for a lucrative job!
Then it is natural for him to harvest this fruit!
So, he smiled and said, "Old Fan, this is easy to say. I heard there is a vacancy in the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall. I will talk to the Sect Master in a few days and let you go."
Elder Fan was surprised and delighted. He thanked him repeatedly and said:
"Palace Master, this purple spike ginseng fruit should not be kept for a long time. Why don't you swallow it now and I will protect you?"
Palace Master Cao remembered that he had just sent someone to call Feng Xi, and was about to refuse immediately, but he heard Elder Fan lower his voice and say:
"Palace Master, although few people know that I got this fruit, if someone reports it to the Sect Master..."
Before he could finish, Palace Master Cao quickly swallowed the Purple Spiked Scrophulariaceae fruit.
If the sect master knew, he would have to give it up, so where would his share go? !
When Elder Fan saw Palace Master Cao eating the fruit, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.
After a moment, Palace Master Cao felt his mind was a little dazed. Just when he was wondering, a new spirit appeared in his sea of consciousness.
Before he could react, the other party had already launched an attack.
Palace Master Cao had not yet fully recovered from the injury he suffered outside the forbidden area last time, and now he was inexplicably dazed, and immediately fell into a disadvantage.
He was not stupid and knew that he had fallen into Elder Fan's trap.
But the soul in front of him was obviously not Elder Fan. He angrily asked, "Who are you? Why are you plotting against me?"
The other party ignored him completely. His purpose was very clear, which was to take over his body.
Palace Master Cao tried his best to resist, but he had no idea what the other party had done to the Purple Spiked Scrophulariaceae fruit. His spiritual consciousness was not even one-tenth of its usual strength, and he could only watch his soul being devoured bit by bit.
He suddenly remembered a secret technique of astrology and forced himself to perform it.
The decline was finally stopped temporarily, but it was only temporary.
At this point, he had already lost control of his body.
Unless someone rescues him in a short time, he will be possessed by another spirit sooner or later.
He fell into despair.
Cao Yonglu had seen countless storms and waves, but in the end he ended up being possessed by someone else. How sad and lamentable!
He still had a lot of things to do. He hadn't become the leader of Xingyao Sect yet, he hadn't solved the secret of the Four Symbols Monument yet, and he hadn't dealt with that damn girl Liu Yiyi yet...
Thinking of Liu Yiyi, he suddenly felt a glimmer of hope.
He just sent someone to call Liu Yiyi, and she should be here by now. Will she save him?
However, he soon thought the idea was ridiculous!
The counterfeit could completely keep people out, so Liu Yiyi probably just left.
Besides, even if they met, she wouldn't be able to tell that he had been possessed by someone else.
Even if she figured it out, how could she possibly be a match for that villain?
Just then, Fengxi's voice came from outside.
"Uncle Cao, I'm here, come out and greet me!"
Palace Master Cao: “…”
He was originally feeling a little listless, but after being angered by Feng Xi, he became more energetic than before.
The man who controlled Palace Master Cao at this time frowned, and immediately erased the spiritual mark on Palace Master Cao's storage ring, and put Elder Fan's body into it.
After closing the restriction in the yard, he said to the outside:
"Liu Yiyi, I have something urgent to deal with here. Please go back first and come back another day."
Palace Master Cao thought to himself, I knew the counterfeit would say that, but it’s better to let the dead girl go, so that she doesn’t die in vain.
At this point he didn't hate Fengxi as much anymore.
He also came to his senses at this time. The person who took over the body was most likely in the same group as the one who tampered with the pond. He and Tianyan Dao Zong fought back and forth, but in the end, the fisherman benefited from the quarrel between the snipe and the clam.
If he dies, then he dies. But don't let that damn girl Liu Yiyi suffer with him.
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard Feng Xi say unhappily:
"Uncle Cao, do you think I'm a puppy? I come when you call me and I go when you dismiss me!
I am the Blood Lotus Saint of Xuanji Pavilion, the honorable Master Tianyan, and a distinguished guest of your Xingyao Sect. It is really too much for you to tease me like this!
If you don't let me in today, I will go to Master Qiu to complain! I will complain about him!"
Palace Master Cao's soul lit up a little bit again.
Angry!
The counterfeit obviously didn't expect Fengxi to say that. Other things didn't matter, but he was mainly worried that Fengxi would really go to find Master Qiu.
Sect Master Qiu would have to call him over for questioning, as he hadn't completely taken over the body yet, and if his flaws were discovered, all his efforts would be in vain.
Thinking of this, he had no choice but to open the gate and said with a smile:
"I'm just joking with you, come in!"
Feng Xi snorted coldly and then entered the yard.
When the impostor saw that the disciple whom Palace Master Cao had sent to call Fengxi was also there, he sent him away and reopened the restriction in the yard.
Fengxi walked in and looked around. Wow, I didn't realize Palace Master Cao had such good taste. This yard is nicely decorated!
After entering the house, the counterfeit poured Fengxi a cup of tea and took out some pastries.
Fengxi didn't hesitate to eat two pieces of dessert and drank a cup of tea.
Palace Master Cao thought to himself, you little girl, you have such a big heart!
Aren't you afraid of poison?
Even with her level of skill, I think she can see the flaws in the counterfeit product.
But it’s also good, so that he doesn’t die in vain.
