Chapter 491: Leading Dragon Fragrance [Ask for monthly pass! ]

When the carriage stopped, it had just arrived at the city gate.

Liang Yue got out of the car and watched Shen Guizang's car leave. He frowned slightly and pondered, "This person is not very kind... He took the car while I walked, and he took advantage of his own convenience and left me here..."

However, compared with Shen Guizang's character, what he said is more worthy of thought.

He came to see Liang Yue specifically for two reasons.

One is to tell him why Guo Fuming died, and the other is to let him buy dragon-attracting incense...

This should be an attempt to divert Liang Yue's attention. After careful consideration, Liang Yue felt that what he said should be true.

Because Guo Fuming's case was an old case, even if he didn't say this, Liang Yue would have already run out of clues, so there was no need for him to specifically divert his attention.

I'm telling you the truth just to stop wasting my time.

As for this inexplicable dragon-attracting incense?

I'm afraid I'll have to go and investigate to find out what's going on.

But why did Shen Guizang come to me?
After thinking about it, Liang Yue felt that this must be related to a difficult matter, and he couldn't find anyone willing to do it. And he had Liang Fuguo's backing and was not afraid of death, so this became his goal.

This was something that even Shen Guizang would find difficult. Liang Yue vaguely felt that this matter should be more complicated than an ordinary case investigation. However, as a condition for others to tell him the truth, he had to go and see the situation.

There was no one he was afraid of in the current Longyuan City. If he provoked someone, the worst that could happen was that he would fake his own death and escape when the time came. Then he could roam the world with Senior Sister Wen and become a pair of heroic lovers. That would be a wonderful thing.

From now on, there will be no Liang Yue in the world, only the Great Eagle Hero in the Jianghu...

While he was lost in thought all the way, he kept walking and finally arrived at the West Market of the Divine Capital.

He didn't know what Yinlongxiang was, but there were many idle people on the West Market Street who made some money by leading people on the way and soliciting customers. Those who had connections could even get discounts from shop owners.

Liang Yue randomly found someone who looked experienced, and after a quick inquiry, he found out what the Dragon-Attracting Incense was and which stores sold it.

The so-called "Dragon-Attracting Incense" refers to the fact that this incense can gather the qi and concentrate the spiritual energy in a space.

This item is extremely expensive. Usually, when alchemists are refining elixirs, or when wealthy practitioners are at the critical moment of breakthrough, they will light a few dragon-attracting incense sticks to gather spiritual veins and make the surrounding spiritual energy richer.

After getting a general understanding, Liang Yue found one of the stores recommended by that person and went to visit.

"Hey, sir, what could you buy in our shop?" When the shop owner saw the visitor dressed in luxurious clothes and with an extraordinary demeanor, he immediately perked up and greeted him with a smile.

Liang Yue asked, "I have recently made a breakthrough in my cultivation, and I would like a few Dragon-Attracting Incense to help me. Shopkeeper, do you have any in your shop?"

"Oh my." The shopkeeper sighed, "Sir, you have come at an unfortunate time. Normally, we may not be able to sell many of these in a year, but recently they have all been bought up."

"Is that so..." Liang Yue turned around and said, "Then I'll go ask somewhere else."

"Sir, even if you go all over the East and West Markets, you probably won't be able to buy it." The shopkeeper reminded, "As far as I know, that customer has bought up all the dragon-attracting incense in the entire Divine Capital. If you want more, you'll have to find an alchemist to make it yourself."

"I heard that this thing is difficult to refine, and it will take at least three to five months." Liang Yue frowned and asked, "Boss, who bought such a large amount of Dragon Attracting Incense? Let me see if the elders in my family know it. If they do, maybe I can go to him and ask him to share some with us."

"I don't know about that." The shopkeeper looked embarrassed. "The customer came mysteriously and was very generous. He didn't want anything else except the dragon incense. I really don't know who he is."

"Okay." Liang Yue nodded, "Sorry for bothering you."

After leaving the shop, he went straight to the Zhuxie Yamen. It seems that there is some secret behind this Yinlongxiang. Since this customer is so hidden, we have to think of some ways.

……

That night, there was a Rakshasa ghost market.

Liang Peng, dressed in a black robe, came to the dirty ditch and looked down. In addition to the familiar mouse, there were more than a dozen scorpions, centipedes, spiders, ants, toads, cockroaches, poisonous snakes and other insects and animals. It was indeed a meeting of ugly creatures.

As soon as they saw him appear, the snakes, insects, rats and ants all spoke in human language and respectfully called out, "Young Master! Young Master!"

These were the remnants of the Wusheng Sect and their descendants, all of whom knew Shadow Master's possession technique and never showed up in person. On the contrary, Liang Peng had to come in person because he had never practiced Shadow Master's magic technique.

However, these former subordinates of Shadow Lord did not think that he was incapable of doing it. Instead, they thought that this young master must be very skilled and courageous, which was why he was not as cunning as they were.

As the disciple of Shadow Master, how could he not know the art of possession?

Although these snakes, insects, rats and ants are not allowed to see the light, Liang Peng has gained another channel to collect intelligence since they came. Not only in the Rakshasa Ghost Market, but also in the entire Longyuan City, except for a few important places, they can come and go freely.

This group of demon cultivators went out to gather intelligence, and even if they were discovered, their main bodies would not be in danger, which was very convenient.

"How is the matter I asked you to investigate going?" Liang Peng asked the demon cultivators as soon as he appeared.

"Young Master, we have been scattered outside the Imperial City these past few days. The city's formations are so strict that it is difficult to enter. However, even through the city walls, we can sense the complex aura inside. There are many sergeants being mobilized, so there must be something unusual."

"There have been a lot of people coming and going in the Song family these days. Song Zhili rarely meets so many guests, and some of them are mysterious and don't look like ordinary people."

"..."

"There is news in the Rakshasa Ghost Market that the Bone Master of the Skeleton Temple will arrive today and will meet with the Mountain Slaughtering Demon Queen in the Ghost Market! This gathering may have been initiated by the Rakshasa King, and he may also be present."

"The Mountain-Slaughtering Demon Queen?!"

The little cockroach who spoke the news was immediately surrounded by shocked gazes.

The reason why they are said to be some remnants of the Wusheng Sect is that after Yingzun disappeared, the Mountain-Slaying Demon Queen took over most of the forces of the Wusheng Sect and took them to Jiuyang for development.

The group of disciples who remain here now are all loyal to Shadow Master and are quite afraid of the Mountain-Slaying Demon Queen.

Many of them even suspected that Shadow Lord was killed by the Demon Queen.

The Demon Queen Tushan was the first wife of the Demon Lord Dong Yuefeng. After the Demon Lord split, each of them was not as strong as the Demon Queen. Especially after she led the Wusheng Sect to grow and develop in Jiuyang, she is now the undisputed number one in the Demon Sect.

These remnants of the old army were naturally worried that the Queen who slaughtered the mountain monster would come back to settle accounts with them.

When everyone was panicking, the mouse waved its front paw and said calmly, "Don't worry, everyone. The Mountain Slaughtering Demon Queen has only returned to Kyushu a few times in the past few decades. Why would she come here specifically to wipe us out? Are we worthy?"

"That's right!" The other demon cultivators heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this, clapping their hands and cheering: "We are not worthy at all!"

"Yes, what are we?"

"We are not even worthy of licking the Demon Queen's feet!"

"Yohoo!"

"..." Seeing this group of demon cultivators cheering for their own weakness and lowliness, Liang Peng and Ying Zun were speechless for a moment.

Liang Peng initially only asked this group of demon cultivators to help him keep an eye on the information about the Skeleton Temple. Later, as the number of them gradually increased, he found that they were very useful, so he asked them to pay attention to the news of the imperial city and the court. After the last feud with Song Zhicheng, he began to ask them to pay attention to the Song family.

Although he has not officially entered the court yet, Liang Peng feels that he can set up his own intelligence network first, which will come in handy sooner or later.

After a moment of silence, Shadow Master gritted his teeth and said, "That bitch Tu Shan sealed me away back then, and now he can sit with that guy Gu Zun? That guy is just a pile of bones, what use is he?"

"But..." Liang Peng replied in a light tone: "Compared to you, you are just a shadow, without even a physical body. You really don't have a single bone that can be used, right?"
