The Third Princess?
Li An was extremely puzzled.
The Third Princess... that is, Li Weixue, the third daughter of the King of Zhenbei.
This kind of person is extremely powerful in Tianyang City and has an extraordinary status.
Why would she come to visit him?
With doubt, he immediately went out to greet her.
But he saw that there was only a carriage parked outside the door, and there were no guards and entourages following. Even the carriage did not look luxurious and could not be recognized at a glance on the street.
The other party was so low-key when traveling, and Li An immediately realized that the other party did not want others to know about his visit this time.
"Zuo Wen respectfully welcomes the Third Princess to my humble home!"
Li An bowed deeply at the door.
In the carriage, a pretty maid came down first. The maid respectfully opened the curtain, and a very beautiful woman poked her head out and walked down slowly.
This person should be the Third Princess Li Weixue.
"I am really sorry to visit you late at night and disturb Master Zuo's practice."
Li Weixue was polite.
"My humble home is honored by your presence, so why would I bother you - please, my humble home!"
Li Weixue and her maidservant followed her in immediately.
Li An served tea carefully and personally.
"Master Zuo, I came here to ask for something."
The third princess got straight to the point.
"Please tell me what you want. As long as I can do it, I will do it!"
"I heard that Master Zuo is an expert in poison and has a lot of knowledge about poisons in the world?"
Li An pondered for a moment, "I do have a poison technique, but it's just a side skill."
The third princess stretched out her delicate hand, "Can Master Zuo help me treat the poison in my body?"
Li An was surprised. Was the third princess poisoned?
Poisoned... The palace has so many resources and so many experts, why would she need help from him?
He was alert, but he still put his hand on the third princess's white wrist.
He sensed it. "The same breath as mine?!"
Li An was shocked.
The Third Commandery Princess also had the same breath as him, invisible and intangible, and much stronger than him.
If he hadn't been able to detect it before, he had observed this breath repeatedly through his life seed and was very familiar with it.
How could there be such a thing in the Third Commandery Princess...
Two possibilities.
One, she, like Li An, had unknowingly become a furnace of the Demon Cult.
Two, she herself was a member of the Demon Cult!
At this moment, countless thoughts flashed through Li An's mind.
He thought it was probably the latter.
After all, from the destruction of the Xuanyang Sect to the siege of the White Tiger City, and even now, the Demon Cult seemed to be well-organized and well-planned, and it could still grow so strong on the territory of the Zhenbei King -
It would be too unreasonable if there was no backstage.
Is the Demon Cult itself the black glove of the Zhenbei Palace? Doing some dirty work for the palace?
Very likely. If the Third Princess is a member of the Demon Cult, and the Palace is the backer of the Demon Cult...
Everything can be explained!
Li An's heart sank. Was the Third Princess' visit to him related to the cloaked man during the day?
Did the other party also think that Li An might find out and there was a possibility of escape, so they deliberately let the Third Princess appear?
If Li An didn't find the existence of that aura, that would be the best.
If Li An found out, the appearance of the Third Princess would be a warning and a threat - the entire Tianyang City is the sphere of influence of the Demon Cult!
How can Li An still run?
Previously, the method of changing appearance with the Yin-Yang Demonic Aura did work, but now there is an additional mysterious demonic aura in Li An's body.
Does the Demon Cult have the means to track this demonic aura? Under the surveillance of the entire Tianyang Palace, can Li An still leave successfully?
If he wants to run away, it may backfire!
Whether the Demon Cult did it intentionally or unintentionally, Li An really seems to have no way out now.
They can only stay in the city, develop and grow according to the other party's ideas, and then be picked for the fruits of their cultivation.
Li An's heart had sunk, but he still acted very calmly, without any waves, and carefully checked the physical condition of the Third Princess.
Pretending to be indifferent.
"She is full of poison!"
After carefully checking the physical condition of the Third Princess, he was still a little surprised.
He practiced the Cold Yin Finger, and only accumulated cold poison on his fingers.
But the Third Princess was really amazing, she seemed to have turned herself into a poisonous body.
It was precisely because of this that there were three kinds of toxins in her body that conflicted with each other, which had affected her qi and blood, and her cultivation.
"Master Zuo, can you tell?"
Li An pondered, "It seems that there are several toxins conflicting with each other..."
"Can it be solved?"
Li An said: "Yes, but it is quite troublesome. You need to prepare a lot of spiritual medicines to gradually dissolve one or two toxins. This conflict no longer exists, and it will be fine."
The Third Princess nodded and waved her hand. The maid next to her took out a storage bag and handed it to Li An.
"Master Zuo, please, I will come to visit you again in a month."
After saying that, the Third Princess turned around and left.
"By the way, if Master Zuo needs anything, you can always tell the owner of the spiritual meat buns in front of your door, and I will know immediately."
Before leaving, the Third Princess said another sentence lightly.
After she left.
Li An's heart became heavier.
The spiritual meat buns shop in front of his door looked very normal. Li An had not paid much attention to it for so many years.
But it turned out to be the spy of the palace!
Sure enough, the control of the palace over Tianyang City is unimaginable.
"At present, I can't leave easily..."
Li An thought.
He has been calculated dead by the other party and has become a trapped beast.
The only way to break the situation is this life-nourishing immortal art.
The Demon Cult would never have thought that the life seed that Li An cultivated could actually refine the mysterious demonic energy.
This is his biggest trump card.
After thinking about it, Li An decided to stay and pretend that he didn't know about it. After all, he is not in danger at present. If the other party wants to kill him, he can do it now. According to his prediction, the real danger will come when he forms a pill.
He opened the storage bag given by the third county lord and took a look. He was surprised that there were as many as 20,000 spirit stones in the storage bag!
How generous!
He couldn't help but feel a little cold in his heart. He was being raised like a pig.
Fattened up and slaughtered at all costs?
He accepted all the spirit stones and began to make subsequent plans...
The improvement of life seeds and the refining of mysterious demonic energy cannot be rushed. They can only be done slowly with time.
But in terms of resources, they must be strengthened comprehensively.
Especially runes and formations, the more the better!
Prepare dozens of second-level formations and thousands of second-level talismans...Even if a big man who has formed a pill comes, he will be skinned!
...
And at this moment.
In a secret room in the city. The Soul-seeking Horse-Faced Demon was trembling all over, his face was pale, his chest was almost split, he roared in pain, sweating profusely.
"Senior, save me, save me..."
He begged, and a hole appeared in his palm, from which a blood-colored bead rolled out.
In the pillar, blood was everywhere, forming a vague figure, vaguely a woman. The woman waved her hand, and an inexplicable force fell on the Soul-seeking Horse-Faced Demon. The pain of the Soul-seeking Horse-Faced Demon suddenly subsided a lot, and even the holes in his body gradually healed...
"Thank you, thank you, senior..."
The Soul-seeking Horse-Faced Demon felt like he had survived a disaster.
"I've already said that with your qualifications, you are not worthy of practicing two magic skills at the same time. You insist on asking for it. You are really asking for death!"
The vague female shadow seemed to speak contemptuously.
"Yes, I overestimate my own abilities..."
The Soul-seeking Horse-Faced was extremely humble, "Senior, is Li An really born with a demonic body?"
"Do you have the right to question the person I chose?"
The woman's voice was very faint, "Throughout the ages, only those born with a demonic body can practice multiple demonic skills at the same time without dying."
