Chapter 28
Another half year later, Pei Du finally had a clear idea of what he was investigating.
It took Pei Du two years to use the identity of the scholar who died of illness to successfully move from a civilian to a position inside the central core. He also made inquiries from inside and added his undercover investigation to learn a lot that was unknown and had not been rumored. The secret of the past.
Pei Du was certain that Pei Yu was not responsible for sealing Chi Ze.
After Chi Ze was sealed, Pei Yu disappeared and his life and death were unknown. He has disappeared from people's sight since then.
In order to stabilize the situation at that time, they directly announced that Pei Yu had died in the sealing battle, and immediately supported the new emperor on the throne.
And this new emperor is Xiang Beichen. He was once just a small personal guard, but he suddenly became the new emperor of the North. No one questioned or objected here, which is enough to see that there are a lot of tricks in it.
Today, Pei Du originally wanted to look for evidence.
But they saw Xiang Beichen mysteriously walking into a secret passage, and guessed that he might be going to meet the mysterious person behind it.
He followed cautiously, but due to his cultivation, Pei Du could only follow from a distance.
But I still saw the mysterious man.
The mysterious man wore a black robe that covered his entire body, and a black skull mask covering his entire face.
His voice was rough, as if it was done on purpose so that no one could hear his original voice.
"System, please send me what they said."
"Okay, host."
After a while, the conversation between Xiang Beichen and the others was clearly transmitted.
Pei Du first heard Xiang Beichen's voice:
"Owner."
This title made Pei Du slightly stunned. He had only guessed that Xiang Beichen and that person might be in a cooperative relationship, but what he didn't expect was a master-servant relationship, which surprised him.
"It's been two years, and you still haven't gotten rid of Chi Ze." The voice of the man in black robe was full of dissatisfaction, and there was a hint of chilling chill in his heart.
With a "bang", Xiang Beichen knelt directly on the ground. His face no longer showed the hypocrisy that Pei Du had seen before. Now he was truly panicked, and his voice was trembling: "Master, what do you want?" , you have to believe me, I will definitely get rid of Chi Ze."
He knelt and moved to the feet of the man in black robe, trying to grab the corner of his clothes, but he was dodged directly, his movements full of disgust.
The man in black robe sneered, and then asked slowly: "How do you want me to believe you?"
A black medicine bottle suddenly appeared in the hand of the man in black robe, with a deep black mist exuding from the medicine bottle.
When Xiang Beichen saw the bottle, his face instantly turned pale. At this moment, he no longer looked as dignified as before, and now he was full of embarrassment.
"Master, since I made Pei Yu disappear from this world in the first place, I will definitely make Chi Ze disappear this time." He said confidently, not seeing the slight sarcasm in the black-robed man's eyes.
The reason why Pei Yu could be killed was not because Pei Yu never guarded against the personal guard who had been with him for many years, but he died in the hands of this person in the end, so things like feelings are not allowed. .
I just miss them, not just because of my feelings, otherwise how could I let him take advantage of them?
The man in black robe looked at him, stretched out a finger, and finally said: "One month, I'll give you one month. If Chi Ze can't disappear, you will be the one who disappears."
Xiang Beichen lowered his head and said excitedly: "Thank you, Master. I will definitely live up to this mission."
As he finished speaking, the man in black robe disappeared into the secret passage.
Pei Du watched Xiang Beichen punch the ground hard, his eyeballs bulged slightly, and his face was full of ferocity.
Finally after a while, he perhaps calmed down and stood up calmly, his face regaining its previous gentle expression.
After patting the dust on his body and straightening his clothes, he saw the aloof Northern King again.
It wasn't until Xiang Beichen walked out of the secret passage that Pei Du came out of his hiding place.
It was indeed him, Pei Du thought to himself.
"Host, can we go see the hero?"
The sound of the system revealed a hint of joy, which was an excitement that could not be concealed.
"Um."
Pei Du nodded, it was time to go to the Demon Realm to take a look.
But he didn't expect that Pei Du would receive a letter from Mu Qingci, his master, the next day.
Pei Du's calm expression cracked slightly when he saw the contents of the letter.
He didn't expect that Pei Yuzhen was the father of this body.
Before, I just thought they looked similar.
Pei Du looked at what Mu Qingci wrote for him.
He introduced his life experience in detail, and the reason why he was raised by Mu Qingci was because Pei Yu gave him to Mu Qingci as a baby and asked Mu Qingci to raise him.
The soul-eating insect on his body had been on him since birth. Mu Qingci did not find a solution, but only found a way to suppress it.
Pei Du now relies on those pills to survive the attacks of soul-eating insects in the middle of each month, but after all, they treat the symptoms rather than the root cause.
In the letter, Mu Qingci wrote that after Pei Yu put him at Mu Qingci's place, he said before leaving that if he grew up in the future and the soul-eating worm in his body broke out, he would let him go. Come to the North, where there will be the answers he wants and a way to completely eliminate this soul-eating insect.
That's why Mu Qingci let Pei Du come to this northern region.
Mu Qingci did not expect that Pei Du met Chi Ze.
Pei Du closed the letter expressionlessly, and in an instant the paper turned into powder.
It seemed that he wouldn't be able to leave for a while. After all, it was better to deal with the bug in his body as soon as possible.
Judging from the current clues, the only person who may be related is Xiang Beichen. After all, he should be the last one and the person who has the most contact with Pei Yu.
He originally thought that he would be delayed for some time in the northern border, but what Pei Du didn't expect was that Xiang Beichen was actually gathering troops to head towards the Demon Realm.
He issued a call order throughout the cultivation world, hoping to gather some people to go to the Demon Realm. The rewards were very generous, and many people were ready to move.
This seemed to suit Pei Du's heart. After all, he would have to go to the Demon Realm sooner or later, and Xiang Beichen just provided him with an opportunity.
So Pei Du took advantage of the situation and got into Xiang Beichen's team again, and followed them towards the Demon Realm. It could be said that he killed two birds with one stone.
The people gathered at Beichen this time are all Jingwei, about thirty or forty people, and their cultivation level is at least Nascent Soul. In the past two years, Pei Du has relied on unremitting training and occasional promotions from the system. Now he is The peak of Nascent Soul is still one step away from the stage of becoming a god.
But this step should be the most difficult step, and Pei Du is not in a hurry about it. After all, sometimes you need to wait for the opportunity.
Pei Du hid in the team, walked behind the team, and blended into a group of people.
The group of them traveled for three days and finally arrived at the entrance of the Demon Realm.
The junction between the Demon Realm and the Northern Realm is an extremely cold place.
The sky and the earth have been covered with ice and snow all year round, and everything between the sky and the earth is a silvery white. People with low or no cultivation simply cannot bear the severe cold here, because this kind of cold air is vaguely aggressive and needs to be resisted with spiritual energy.
Deep in the snow-capped mountains, there is a cave, and that is the place leading to the Demon Realm.
This place is covered by a seal all year round. This seal is to ensure that low-level demons will not escape from the demon realm and cause harm to the world, and to maintain the balance between the human and demon worlds. However, it is not an obstacle at all to the humans and demons with high cultivation levels.
They passed through the cave, and as the temperature continued to warm up, this meant that the Demon Realm was getting closer.
Until he took the last step, the environment in front of Pei Du changed instantly.
It should have been a sunny day, but at this time the air in front of me had a hint of darkness, and a faint black mist filled the air.
As soon as he stepped into the Demon Realm, it was not as uncomfortable as he imagined, but the weather was a little gloomier, and the rest was not much different from the world outside the Demon Realm.
The hawkers' cries were just like the outside world, and there was an endless stream of pedestrians on the street, and the demons coming and going were full of anger.
In order to deceive others, Xiang Beichen divided the team into several small groups. He asked everyone to enter in batches and finally meet at a location.
Pei Du followed the team at the end and watched them enter an inn, then acted alone.
He originally wanted to inquire about some young people, but he didn't expect that at the next corner, he saw a slightly familiar figure.
Not far away, stood a young man. The young man was wearing a black robe with red dark lines on the cuffs. The belt outlined the young man's slender waist. Just standing there was an attractive sight.
There is a pair of beautiful eyes on the fair side face. The young man has clear eyes, slightly pursed pale pink lips, and a light expression on his face.
There seemed to be a person standing opposite him, but because it was blocked by something, Pei Du couldn't see clearly.
Not sure what the person opposite said, Pei Du saw the corners of the young man's lips raised slightly, revealing a faint smile.
Pei Du narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at that figure closely, not leaving for a moment.
Suddenly, he sneered in his heart.
It seems that he is doing well in this demonic realm.
That young man was none other than the male protagonist who had not appeared in front of Pei Du for two years, Feng Yunjing.
The author has something to say: He is angry, he is angry, he is going to be angry to death, hehe.
