Chapter 177 The Sword God is furious

After returning home, Zhao Mu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Tang Qing was practicing meditation, apparently preparing for the Sword Test Conference.

Zhao Mu pretended to be calm and walked in front of her: "Registration for the Sword Test Conference has begun. It will last for three days. We can still go on the last day. You don't have to force yourself."

Tang Qing opened her eyes slightly: "Where did you go last night?"

"I met an acquaintance and drank some wine. I didn't want to disturb you, so I didn't come back."

Tang Qing didn't doubt it, but said: "There are many people outside now, so don't take it lightly."

Zhao Mu nodded, and then handed the file that Xing Ziyue got to Tang Qing for her to review.

After reading the file, Tang Qing was thoughtful.

"Something must have happened to my father. As far as I know, when he left Shengyuan Demon Sect, he did not practice any trickery, let alone an evil demon. I must ask the Sword God Qu Liu about this in person."

"There is another thing. In addition to you, there are three other powerful people who have passed the tribulation in this sword test conference. I am worried that your identity will be recognized."

If your identity is exposed in this situation, Kong Miaoyin will definitely receive the news, and then it will probably increase the variables.

"It doesn't matter. I rarely leave Shengyuan Demon Sect. The outside world only knows my name as the Qingyun Queen, but other than that, outsiders don't know anything about me. There are not many powerful people who have passed the tribulation on the Xianwu Continent, but there are definitely more than you think. No one will guess my identity with very little information."

"But..." Zhao Mu told Tang Qing that the formation was tampered by the demon clan before, and suspected that there were demon clan spies in the Sword Immortal Pavilion.

"This seems to be a trick that some demons would use, but Kong Miaoyin's hand should not reach here. As for the Blue Dragon Supreme behind her... With his strength, he would not use such means. It should be that other demon forces are lurking in the Sword Immortal Pavilion."

This seems to be right.

Kong Miaoyin has just taken over the family, and the foundation is not yet stable. How can she be qualified to reach out to the human race's territory.

Blue Dragon Supreme is the first supreme of the demon race, and it is even more impossible for such a low-level method to come from his hand.

Zhao Mu is indeed overly worried.

"But your worry is not unreasonable. In short, at the sword test conference, I will try my best to hide my strength and keep a low profile, and I will not show my true face to others."

As he said, a white mist enveloped Tang Qing.

When the white mist dissipated, Tang Qing's face and even her body shape changed.

From the stunning empress, she instantly became a petite, dull and speechless girl. Although her facial features have not changed much, the overall feeling given to people is like a completely different person.

The most amazing thing is that this transformation is not a disguise, but a complete change of the physical appearance.

Zhao Mu was amazed and asked: "What kind of skill is this?"

"This is the art of changing appearances, which was created by my father. There are many ways to disguise appearances, but the art of changing appearances can not only change appearances, but also imitate auras. My father also specifically told me that if this art falls into the hands of bad people, there will be endless troubles, so I should not pass it on to others."

"Then can I learn it?" Zhao Mu looked expectant.

"You... are not an outsider, so you can learn it. After returning to the Demon Sect, I will teach you, but you have to promise me that you will not use this technique to do evil." Tang Qing said with a serious face.

"What if it is used on evil people?"

"Of course, it is okay to fight evil with evil."

Zhao Mu nodded: "Then I can promise."

Zhao Mu suddenly laughed.

"What are you laughing at?"

"It just suddenly occurred to me that if the world knew that the dignified Demon Sect Empress was actually a person who could distinguish between good and evil, would anyone believe it?"

"As cultivators, we only seek to be clear in our consciences and do not need to care about other people's opinions."

"Madam is right."

Tang Qing rolled her eyes at Zhao Mu, but did not refuse the title of Madam.

She is a person who will never look back once she decides on something.

"For some reason, I suddenly want to eat the food you cook." Tang Qing looked at Zhao Mu with some expectation in her eyes.

At this moment, Zhao Mu suddenly remembered the foodie Little Tangdou.

He suddenly thought that Tang Qing was willing to let him become the prince of the Demon Sect. Could it be that he was also influenced by Tangdou's will?

"Okay, I'll do it now."

For the next two days, Zhao Mu did not go out. He spent most of his time at home with Tang Qing. In his spare time, he taught Wu Miaomiao the formation, and brushed a lot of return experience. He was not far from breaking through the ninth-grade formation master.

Now that Xing Ziyue and Shi Rui have left the Sword Immortal Pavilion, Wu Miaomiao has become Zhao Mu's intelligence tool, reporting back all the big and small things that happened in the Hidden Sword Valley, as well as a lot of intelligence information about the dark horse characters in this Sword Trial Conference.

Unknowingly, it was the last day of registration.

That afternoon, Zhao Mu and Tang Qing left home and went to the registration office.

Because the registration deadline was approaching, there were not many people at the registration office at this time. After paying two hundred medium-grade spirit stones, the two successfully registered for the Sword Trial Conference and received the player cards.

The Sword Trial Conference was divided into four groups: Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, and Black Tortoise, which were completely randomly arranged.

Of course, after Zhao Mu spent a little bit of spirit stones, he and Tang Qing were randomly assigned to the Black Tortoise Group.

The Black Tortoise Group was the last group of the preliminaries, which would be held four days later.

Zhao Mu arranged it in the Xuanwu group to buy more time for Tang Qing to recover his strength.

It is better to be cautious.

Although it is only a preliminaries, the preliminaries are the most intense. Tens of thousands of people participated, but in the end only less than a thousand people could successfully advance. The elimination rate exceeded 90%. It would be best to buy more time.

Moreover, Wu Miaomiao had already investigated that the other three monks who had passed the tribulation were all in the first three groups. As the last group, the Xuanwu group generally had weak players, which was more suitable for hiding their weaknesses.

The registration process was very smooth. After finishing the work, Zhao Mu and Tang Qing went home.

Unexpectedly, they met Master Ye Chengming just after returning home.

He seemed to come to Zhao Mu specifically.

"Master Ye, what do you want?" Zhao Mu asked.

Ye Chengming said: "The situation is urgent. Follow me to the Starry Holy Land. I will explain the situation to you in detail on the way."

Seeing that he was so anxious, Zhao Mu did not dare to delay. He said goodbye to Tang Qing and followed Ye Chengming to the Starry Holy Land.

"Old Ye, what happened? Why are you so panicked?"

Ye Chengming lowered his voice and said, "The great elder of the Sword Immortal Pavilion, Wen Xingluo, was assassinated. It happened in the Starry Holy Land. This incident made the Sword God furious. He asked me to mobilize all the formations in the Starry Holy Land to find the assassin's clues. This is a huge workload. I can't handle it alone, so I thought of you."

Wen Xingluo was assassinated?

It happened right under the nose of the Sword God Qu Liu.

Who is so bold!
