The Journey of Immortal Cultivation Chapter 604 - 344 Analysis2
"The so-called rabbit does not eat the grass at its burrow edge. Since he plans to nest here, he won’t spread the plague in Chiming City for the ti being. Just don’t know how long this ’temporarily’ will last." He paused, then continued, "Of course, this deduction will still take tens of two hours to verify. I have already made arrangents. Once soone gets infected, they must be isolated and treated imdiately."
Her eyes sparkled: "Did you specifically co to Chiming City to catch him here?"
"No." Contrary to her expectations, Miluo shook his head, "He must be lured out of Chiming City. He dares to hide here so brazenly because he knows there are too many mortals in Chiming City, and I am reluctant to move against him. Otherwise, if he causes an outbreak, it would infect hundreds of thousands."
Ning Xiaoxian pondered: "Why does this person want to head west? The Central Northern Region of the Southern Continent has many states and counties that are richer and more populous." There are many wealthy cities in the Central Northern Region of the Southern Continent, so even boasting populations over two million. Spreading the plague there would be like dropping a bio-bomb, potentially having a better effect.
Miluo gave her a deep look: "I was also skeptical at heart until you solved the puzzle for ."
"?" She raised her eyebrows. Solve the puzzle? She herself was still confused.
"You ntioned that in the Cave Mansion of Chi Ru at Sky Lake, you saw new holes dug into the stone wall? So, sothing was originally hidden there." Miluo’s thin lips curled into a cold smirk, "Perhaps the belongings of Chi Ru were taken by him. However, this mansion is hidden in the deep waters of Sky Lake in The Great West, which is extrely secretive. When he was in Bing State, how could he possibly know about the items hidden in Chi Ru’s Cave Mansion that’s hundreds of thousands of miles away? This Chi Ru was at most seven to eight hundred years old and moved to Sky Lake less than four hundred years ago, unless this person has the ability of foreknowledge, or unless..."
He dragged out his tone, then delivered his deduction: "Unless such a thing originally belonged to him. This westward journey, was just to retrieve what was his!"
She held her breath for a mont. Miluo’s reasoning was sound, far too sound. This guy, with just this sliver of information, could dig out so many secrets; he truly was talented. It really is impossible to let him catch any clues; otherwise, who knows what evidence might fall into his hands. Thinking this, her gaze towards him grew even more mysterious.
And this guy leaned back, smiling, "I like the way you look at . Won admire the strong." He Miluo was overconfident in his intellect, but always felt an enigmatic feeling facing this young lady—it was truly curious and strange. She must carry a big secret, always unknown to him. He has always enjoyed peeling layers from a mystery and one day he will see her through and through.
He looked at her again with that strange, inquiring look. Ning Xiaoxian choked up: "I don’t like the way you look at . Now that we know the spreader of the plague is in the city, what is your plan to deal with him? Don’t shake your head, I know you have tricks up your sleeve!"
"The characteristics of this plague are too distinctive. So I perused the secret archives of Fengtian Prefecture and finally found out that over eleven thousand years ago, the Southern Continent also had an outbreak that claid over twenty-one million lives. Keep in mind, the population of the entire continent back then was far less than today, so this number is quite significant. More importantly, the symptoms of that epidemic and this current one are almost identical." His smile faded, and he spoke word by word, "The chief culprit was a Plague Demon."
She suddenly understood. No wonder this guy seed to know everything—he just had far more information than her. "So, this outbreak also occurred more than ten thousand years ago? How was it treated then?"
"Back then, soone developed a cure, but it has been lost over ti." Miluo said, "Now, if we gather a group of Alchemy Masters to work together, we might just be able to cure it, but let’s set this aside for now. The archives ntioned information about the Plague Demon, so today we could rearrange things based on this and must capture it in one fell swoop."
There’s only one chance, and if we let this guy escape, Chiming City will not escape his retaliation. "What should we do?"
Miluo casually said: "Join to watch a play, how about it? But you need to suppress your cultivation to the Foundation Establishnt Stage, Brother Tu as well."
She looked at him curiously: "Sure. But what’s your trick this ti? Are the actors ready?"
"Hmm, it was already arranged. Now, there’s an even more suitable candidate." Miluo spoke deeply.
Afterwards, the group talked in detail for half an hour, Miluo requested Ning Xiaoxian to withdraw the Barrier, and then soone gently knocked at the door.
A man in black entered: "My lord, that person has finished eating, about to leave." Behind him stood another person.
The fragile and beautiful Butterfly Demon, Ru Ji.
Ru Ji, with wide eyes, obviously felt very grateful that Miluo let her go just like that.
Miluo imdiately stood up and gave Ning Xiaoxian a deep look: "The show starts now." He then waved Ru Ji over: "You know what to do?" His voice was calm, neither happy nor angry. Ru Ji’s eyes reddened slightly, and she quickly nodded. Miluo then walked out, the Butterfly Demon closely following his steps.
This fox demon looks beautiful, but she has a ruthless heart. Ning Xiaoxian thoughtfully watched the silhouettes of this pair looking like jade statues. With the magic from Changtian to mask their true cultivation, she and Tu Jin both disguised their cultivation as Foundation Establishnt Stage, and slowly followed. Tu Jin followed behind her, without uttering a word. (To be continued. If you like this work, we invite you to vote at qidian with your recomndation ticket and monthly ticket.
