"What's the matter, the Demon Emperor is used to it, and he doesn't want to be the first seat?" Gu Qingyun said sarcastically. In the struggle for interests, the lecture hall lost to the empirical institute, which made him very unhappy. The tone of the two houses is different, and it is certainly easier for the empirical institute to pin its head to its waist at any time.

"Of course not. Su Fu didn't care either, and smiled, "As long as I am the first seat of the Empirical Institute for one day, the alliance between the two states will be unbreakable, which is beneficial to both sides and should be maintained." However, in my absence, the Institute needs someone to perform its duties on my behalf. ”

"The depletion of the aura, the division of commerce, and the establishment of the Chamber of Commerce are known changes and actions that are about to begin. Leaving aside the unknown changes that are hidden, the Empirical Institute will definitely be very busy with trivial tasks such as guarding and running errands, and if the group of dragons is leaderless, it is easy to fall into chaos. ”

"Who do you want to be the acting head?" asked Lee Do-chun.

"I thought Brother Lozee was good. Su Fu smiled and looked at Shui Luoze.

Shui Luo Ze was already tired of arguing, and he was a little out of the world, and when he heard his name, he hurriedly responded: "Ah, what?"

After hearing it clearly, he thought for a moment and said, "I'm fine, but I'm not a member of the Empirical Academy, and for the sake of prestige, wouldn't it be more appropriate for a Jechen or a Shidao to serve as a priest?"

"I'm already the head of the Flying Dust Branch. "Absolute dust succinctly refuses.

"I'm already the head of the Liuyan Branch. Jia Shidao also refused.

"That being the case, then Luo Ze will serve as the acting head of the Empirical Institute, and when Su Fu is not there, he will exercise the first authority on his behalf. Lee Do-chun made the final decision.

Shui Luo Ze had no choice but to respond: "Yes." ”

......

The headquarters of the Empirical Institute was located in Goat Palace, which was originally owned by the Discipline Academy.

At present, there are a total of 300 disciples in the Empirical Academy, and their cultivation ranges from Condensation to Xuanzhen, and it is divided into three combat branches: Liuyan, Feichen, and Haoran.

The Liuyan Branch is a disciple who mainly practices the "Liuyan Blazing Sword Technique", and Jia Shidao, a true disciple, is the head of the Academy.

There are all kinds of cultivation in the Feichen Branch, and the true disciple Jiechen is the master of the courtyard.

The Haoran branch is a disciple who mainly practices "Haoran extinction", and Liu Mu, an inner disciple, is the master.

This is just the usual compilation. Once the time of war arrived, the disciples of each ministry and academy were to be assigned to the Empirical Academy, and the Empirical Institute would be uniformly deployed.

"When this seat is not there, Senior Brother Luo Ze will take over the first seat, you can't be taken lightly, remember?"

Three hundred disciples were lined up in the hall, and beside Su Fu stood the branch master and the acting head Shui Luoze.

"Remember!" replied three hundred in unison.

"Also, remember to step up your cultivation during this time, okay, just go down. Su Fu waved his hand.

The three hundred disciples dispersed, and Jiechen had never liked to gather in groups, so he also took his leave.

Liu Mu's face is not very good-looking, and it seems that the "confession" is not very smooth.

Jia Shidao patted him on the shoulder and took him to drink.

There were two people left in the hall, Shui Luo Ze sat on the chair with a butt, and said with a wry smile: "Senior brother, senior brother, I don't remember where I am sorry for you, why do you want me to take on this heavy responsibility." ”

"Those who can work harder. Su Fu sat opposite, "I think the sword master also has this meaning, so that the senior brother will not be idle all day, it is better to find something to do." ”

"You've hurt me. Shui Luoze made a bitter face, "When I think of so many trivialities in the Empirical Institute, I feel like throwing up." It's good that you can easily get out of the way, and you should be in a state of wonder when you shake off the shopkeeper. ”

"If my brother doesn't go to hell, whoever goes to hell. Su Fu gloated and smiled, "Don't complain, at most you will come to the Demon God Palace, and I will arrange a beautiful demon girl to serve you, and you will live as long as you want, and I will ensure that you will not want to return." ”

"How can one be enough. Shui Luo Ze was tempted at first, and then scolded with a smile, "Bastard boy, then I can find another generation leader, to put it lightly!"

"Forget it, everything is settled, it's useless to say more. Shui Luo Ze shook his head, "I'm busy tomorrow, so let's rest early!"

"yes, some of them are busy!"

......

After the meeting, Su Fu sent various instructions to the demon country, and the monk distribution centers such as Purple City, Mingyue City, and Lushan Mansion began to guard a large number of spiritual jade, pills, treasures and other cultivation needs.

Three days after the meeting, on the 24th of the midsummer month, the Chamber of Commerce was established in Golden Scale City, and Ji Xuanqing came back from the robbery and joined the busy brigade.

On the fourth day after the meeting, the Northern Sect secretly received the news of the "scourge of the tides" and began to prepare for the establishment of the Chamber of Commerce.

On the 28th day of the midsummer month, all the large and small sects in the world flocked to the city of Sunrise, all trying to "participate in the grand event". Although the invitation is limited to a few gates, it does not prevent them from joining in the fun.

Jianzhai was headed by Xiao Nanli, Taiyi Holy Land was headed by Yunxiang, Yunshan City was headed by Yunzhaoling, Fatai Sect was headed by Fahe Zen Master, and Dongdu was headed by Evil Venerable, and also began to set off to Rixi City.

The gathering of the five people who were known as the strongest heroes back then caused a large number of scattered cultivators to begin to flock to Sunrise City.

......

On the same day, Juzhou Longya Mountain ushered in an uninvited guest.

Despite the midsummer season, Longya Mountain is still frozen for thousands of miles.

Just on the edge of the Demon Binding Lake, a man in a blue robe fell, he looked at the lava that was about to solidify, and sneered: "Lu You, count yourself lucky, let me catch up!"

As he spoke, he gently took off his robe, revealing his half-human, half-beast body, and then jumped into the lava lake.

It was still very hot under the lake, and according to the location of his memory, he found a head. Most of the body next to the skull has been ablated by the lava, and it is obviously unusable. The skull, on the other hand, is guarded by a mysterious power, and it does not look like a dead person.

Such a hot lava can only be resisted by the body after condensation. But time is a pig-killing knife, no matter how strong your body is, you can't withstand the moment of lava.

"The body is no longer usable!" the man pondered to find him an intact corpse, and when he swam to the center, his heart suddenly moved, and he saw a headless corpse standing proudly in the lava.

The corpse held a scabbard in its left hand, and still held his knife in its right hand.

"Zhao Tiandao?" The man was very surprised, and took the corpse out of the lava lake together.

Came to an ice peak, gently lowered the body to the ground, pressed Lu You's head on it, looked at it in the air, and suddenly smiled: "Interesting, this is also your creation!"

He fell, stretching out his right arm, covered in silver-gray scales, and a raging force poured out from his body, breaking through the mysterious power that protected his skull.

His left hand pressed against the abdomen of the corpse, and the same vitality poured out, and countless tiny tentacles sprouted at the interface between the skull and the corpse, and the two were entwined together.

The eyelids of the head moved slightly, first for a while, and then opened completely, the eyeballs rolled, looked around, and then froze on the headless corpse, with a frightened look on his face: "Li Yuanyou, I'll go to your mother, this is not my body!"

"I advise you not to greet my mother again, or you will regret it!" The man's face sank, and suddenly a terrifying threat emanated from him.

"Yes, yes, I was wrong, don't care...... But this body is not my ......."

The man said coldly: "Your body is burned out, this is Zhao Tiandao's body." Through his thousands of tempering, the true intent of the sword path he cultivated was crisscrossed between the meridians, and he was able to protect the immortal, which is cheap for you!"

"No, it's not...... I was miserable by you, and if his body has the true intention of the sword, his will will will not perish, you ...... You ......"

He was suddenly speechless, and his eyes rolled upwards as if he were about to faint in pain.

"Otherwise, how can you say that it is your creation!" the man bared his teeth and sneered, "With your original qualifications, even if you have the help of the Heaven Devouring Demon Yuan, you will at most break through immortality, and it will be of little use to me." ”

Half an hour later, the head and body were in perfect contact, and the two wills seemed to have gone through the first round of confrontation.

He opened his eyes again, and suddenly said with a fierce expression: "Zhao Tiandao, if you want to live in peace with me, I will let you use my head, you want to fight with me, I am not afraid of you, it's a big deal that the fish will die and the net will be broken!"

"Okay, don't, don't, I'm afraid of you, grandpa......" His eyes rolled again, and his expression instantly changed to extremely indifferent.

He stood up and sheathed his knife: "You saved me." ”

"Yes, you will do what I tell you to do in the future. The man looked at him as if he were a masterpiece.

A small opening opened in the right neck of the corpse, opening and closing like a mouth, and a human voice sounded: "Li Yuanyou, you ...... It's so damn......"

The man's eyes flashed with silver, and the little mouth suddenly let out a miserable scream: "Stop...... Stop, I can't afford to mess with you, can't I still hide......"

"Be careful when you talk to me in the future. The man smiled coldly, "Next, let's go to Shenzhou!"
