Xue Wei hesitated for a moment and decided to hold his ground for now. He could not lose his composure and fail to live up to the trust of his predecessors and his own efforts. He said, "Send someone to lead them to the hall first and give them a good reception. Do not neglect them. I will be there soon."
"Yes." The person who reported it clasped his fist respectfully, and then added: "Deputy Altar Master Han is already in the front porch to receive the Holy Envoy."
Xue Wei put down the pen in his hand, walked out from behind the desk, and strode out, saying, "Since the deputy leader is already here, it would seem arrogant if I don't go."
The status of the Holy Envoy is extremely high, and generally speaking, there is always a process for receiving him. The Holy Envoy, who has traveled a long way and condescended to come here, is allowed to rest in the front hall first, and then the person in charge of the inspection will tidy up his appearance and receive him respectfully.
It is actually against the rules and shows disrespect to just approach someone with your eyes wide open.
He didn't expect that Han Tianyi, who usually looked so arrogant, would rather break the rules and go up to curry favor with him so eagerly.
Xue Wei had just come here not long ago to take over the position of the leader of the altar, and had just figured out the whole Wuyin Cliff - of course, what he was thinking about was how to eradicate this cancer that had buried countless righteous people.
Han Tianyi is one of the only two deputy masters of Wuyin Cliff, a cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Stage. In terms of his position, he is a guardian of the same level as Xue Wei. However, his father was the previous deputy master of Wuyin Cliff and one of the twenty-four elders. Invisibly, he has a bit of the arrogance of a second-generation cultivator.
Moreover, the leader of Wuyin Cliff is always changing, but the deputy leader is fixed all year round. He is called an assistant, but in fact he is the real local boss of Wuyin Cliff. He is very familiar with the people here, and the successive leaders who come to succeed him are always polite to him.
But when Xue Wei walked to the door of the front porch and saw the true face of the Holy Envoy, he finally understood why Han Tianyi, who always looked arrogant, was so anxious.
As the rumors said, she was indeed a beautiful girl.
Black hair, white clothes, snow-white skin, red lips, a pair of phoenix eyes as calm as a deep well, with a chilly feeling. In the dark rain all around, the whole person seems to be covered with a faint glow, not like a real person.
However, the Holy Envoy seemed a little exhausted at the moment, and there were two younger girls following behind him, who should be maids and they were both good-looking.
But Xue Wei had seen Ning Xiangrong, a beauty as beautiful as a flower in a mirror and a moon in water, in Shuiyuewu. The impact of that beauty was on a completely different level, so he calmed down after a moment of distraction.
He took a deep breath and walked forward, only to see Han Tianyi, who was leading the way in front of the girl, had a smile on his face, but his eyes were full of covetousness and greed.
This ugly stuff again...
Disgust and hatred arose in Xue Wei's heart. What he saw most often in the Demon Sect was the ugliness of human nature. The more he saw, the stronger his determination to eliminate demons and defend the righteousness became.
In the past few months, he has killed several evil cult members by creating personal grudges. Whenever he thinks of it, he feels extremely happy.
The reason why "Silver Thunder Demon" became famous quickly was also due to his mad dog-like ruthless behavior. However, because he always did things legitimately and cleanly, the top management appreciated his cautious style.
If we talk about the first target in this Wuyin Cliff, it is undoubtedly Han Tianyi.
As long as this deputy leader is killed, Wuyin Cliff will collapse by at least 30%.
After just a few months of training, Xue Wei had undergone tremendous changes both inside and out. His mind became more resolute, and he hid his murderous intent well. He smiled and walked forward: "I am sorry for not welcoming you, the Holy Envoy..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw the young saint's eyes change slightly. She looked at him and said seriously, "The King of Heaven and the Tiger of Earth."
Because of these five words, Xue Wei's heart was suddenly in uproar.
This was clearly the secret code that his senior had told him about the meeting!
Chapter 270: The Best Punishment for the Holy Maiden of the Demon Cult
Before saying goodbye to Liu Yuan, Xue Wei had a profound conversation with him, discussing what they should do in the Demon Sect in the future and how to achieve their goals.
That conversation had a great impact on this ambitious young man at the age of sixteen, which led to his current achievements.
During the conversation, Liu Yuan also mentioned that Xue Wei might meet some "comrades within the organization" in the Demon Sect in the future.
——It is impossible to completely eradicate the Demon Cult relying on Xue Wei's strength alone. Only with the cooperation of many parties and internal and external forces can this huge organization that has been entrenched in the five continents of the Upper Central Realm for many years be uprooted.
So of course Liu Yuan had to develop more undercover agents, connecting the dots into lines, and finally weaving a net to defeat the Demon Cult in one fell swoop.
Although Vihara, the Holy Maiden of the Demon Cult, is Liu Yuan's wife, Liu Yuan will not change his goal to supporting the Demon Cult because of this.
His position has never been to take one side.
It's impossible to stand on either side.
Otherwise, if he agreed to Ling Yao's request to let her take the position of Yuxu Sect Leader while at the same time expanding the Demon Sect, he would be simply the ultimate traitor and would not please either side. I'm afraid even Ling Yao would be disappointed.
When Ling Yao raised the three questions, he was encouraging Liu Yuan to take all those women into his pocket, including Vihara, but not Vihara himself, instead of asking him to take in the Demon Sect as well.
Even in Liu Yuan's eyes, the evil cult that has committed numerous bloody crimes is doomed to die, because the empathy aroused by a part of the cruel plot of the game has left a deep impression in the players' hearts - the evil of the evil cult is real.
As for Vihara's evil, the tens of thousands of dead souls in her hands, both innocent and innocent, are naturally real. There is no way to whitewash them, nor is there any need to whitewash them. However, her so-called responsibility for the Demon Cult is mostly due to her father, the current leader of the Demon Cult, Lu Tianyi.
So even if the Demon Cult was destroyed, Liu Yuan was sure that she would not feel sad about it.
The best punishment Liu Yuan could think of for the Saint of the Demon Cult was to imprison her by his side forever... to keep her pregnant all the time, and to give birth to seventeen, eighteen or even more children for her to raise.
For the Holy Maiden of the Demon Cult who had committed numerous crimes, this kind of life without dignity would be the cruelest punishment (very realistic).
All in all, according to Liu Yuan's plan, the destruction of the Demon Cult is only a matter of time.
Xue Wei is just one of the initial points, and it is a point that Liu Yuan did not deliberately choose. There will be many more hidden pieces in the future.
In order for these hidden players to recognize each other, some distinctive codes were needed. At that time, Liu Yuan had not thought of it yet, so he just mentioned it to Xue Wei.
During that period of time, Zhiying was following and protecting Liu Yuan in secret all the time, so he naturally heard everything clearly.
Seeing that Xue Wei was actually the leader of Wuyin Cliff, he subconsciously uttered this very classic sentence which no one in this world knew.
Xue Wei's expression was full of surprise for a moment, but fortunately, he was now much more sophisticated than before, so he immediately asked, "Could the Holy Envoy also be from Jiang? How come he can speak the dialect there?"
As he spoke, he stepped forward and stretched out his hand to make a gesture of invitation, first stopping the stunned Han Tianyi aside. His movements were so natural and smooth that he had no room to react.
"I've been there, but I only got half a sentence."
By the time Han Tianyi heard the indifferent reply from the young Saint Envoy, she had already walked away for a while. Xue Wei said respectfully, "I see. This is actually a common saying that refers to the customs over there. 'The king of heaven covers the tiger of earth, and the pagoda suppresses the river monster.' If the Saint Envoy doesn't mind, I can explain it to her..."
This one-on-one answer was something Liu Yuan came up with on the spur of the moment and was later invalidated.
There is no fourth person in the world who knows this.
Xue Wei had a moment of doubt as to whether the senior had been accidentally captured by the Demon Cult, but if so, why would he just kill him and be done with it? After much thought, there was only one possibility left - the Holy Envoy was actually what the senior had said, a "comrade in the organization"!
As expected of a senior!
Xue Wei had been in this cult for a few months, and originally thought that he had performed well enough as an undercover agent. However, he never expected that the chessboard set up by his predecessors had already been unfolded, and the chess pieces were mysterious and unpredictable. The deep plans and foresight behind them were beyond his ability to guess!
Xue Wei was amazed and felt awe in his heart at the same time. The Holy Envoy came to him at this moment. Could it be that there was finally an important task for him to complete?
With this thought in mind, he spoke firmly, "If you have any orders, Xue Wei will go through fire and water, even if it means death!"
Zhiying was a little surprised. When Liu Yuan sent this person to the Demon Sect, she, who had grown up with Vihara, thought he was just being sent away. But she didn't expect that he would actually do this...
My father has almost never failed in his grasp of people's hearts, but he often fails when it comes to women.
She thought for a moment and said, "Give me a quiet and deserted place near the Hualing River."
Xue Wei naturally agreed and ordered preparations to be made immediately.
A group of people who received the Holy Messenger also left in a mighty procession.
Han Tianyi watched as Xue Wei, relying on his identity as a Jiang citizen, was able to easily approach the extremely cold young saint envoy.
"Damn it! Why does he do that?!"
Han Tianyi's eyes were sinister, and his gaze seemed to be spitting fire.
He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. As the son of an elder, he had the honor of seeing the little girl beside the saint when he followed his father to the main temple. The little girl was quiet, expressionless, but as delicate as a porcelain doll. He has been thinking about her since his youth.
Finally, when he heard the news of the Holy Envoy's arrival, no one knew how ecstatic he was to the point of going crazy. The naive love he had in his youth, after being distorted by the demon cult environment over the years, had turned into greed and desire.
But he still tried his best to restrain himself, not wanting to scare the eternal white moonlight in his heart.
But! This Xue Wei who just came to take over not long ago!
A while ago, they had a conflict because of a show of force, and now they are trying to take advantage of the situation to grab the Holy Envoy's attention.
Han Tianyi naturally didn't think that the Holy Envoy would be interested in this kid, but this kind of flattery had already touched his sensitive nerves at the moment.
"Xue Wei, huh... In this Wuyin Cliff, I have thousands of ways to make you die without a burial place!"
Han Tianyi stared coldly into the dark rain and waved his hand: "Is everything ready?"
A dark figure emerged silently in the darkness. "In seven days, Mount Xumi will get clues about the missing disciples and come to Wuyin Cliff. All the facts will point to Xue Wei. It was this newcomer who started the job and started a fire that burned Mount Xumi and killed three true disciples."
"Okay." Han Tianyi smiled grimly.
If you want to take credit, you must first consider whether you are qualified!
Chapter 271: So Good, So Good
Xue Wei dismissed the others, turned around and said in a deep voice: "Did Senior Liu ask you to come to me? If there is anything you need me to do, I will definitely..."
Zhiying looked at the tumbling Hualing River outside the window and said, "That's enough."
"Hmm?" Xue Wei was stunned and said, "What do you mean by enough..."
"boom!"
A dark shadow suddenly rushed in, interrupting his words.
Xue Wei's face turned grim, and he immediately clenched his fists, lightning gathered on his hands, but he was stunned the next moment.
The black shadow spread its wings, and it turned out to be a white crane. Two people walked down from the crane's back, one of them was a very beautiful and cold Taoist nun, so that suddenly, the room seemed to be lit up.
Xue Wei, who had officially entered the world of cultivating immortals, was not unfamiliar with the appearance of this Taoist nun. After all, her face would be reprinted on the wanted poster of the Demon Cult every month.
"Nun Lingyao!" Xue Wei was stunned.
The next person to come down was a man in purple, whose face was covered by a bronze ghost mask. His awe-inspiring majesty was chilling. Xue Wei had also seen him in the information of various sects - the Lord of Biluo Mansion, Huang Quan!
How could these two people appear at the same time?! What on earth happened?!
Xue Wei's thoughts went into a stagnation, and cold sweat broke out on his back.
But immediately, Ling Yao turned around and gently helped a man down from the back of the squatting white crane. He was very intimate and there was no sign of avoiding suspicion in his behavior.
The man leaned on Ling Yao. Almost all of his hair had turned white, with only a layer of light gray left at the roots. The exposed skin on his hands was full of wrinkles of age, so much so that Xue Wei didn't recognize who he was at first.
Until the man raised his head and revealed his still young face, he asked in surprise: "Xue Wei?"
Before he could say a few words, he coughed up some blood and looked like he was in critical condition.
"Senior!" Xue Wei blurted out, his confusion and shock suddenly disappeared, his eyes lit up as if he had found his backbone, and then he showed a worried look, and immediately stepped forward to support him: "Senior, what's wrong with you?"
Hong Fu, who was behind the figure, rushed forward and hugged Liu Yuan, tears as big as beans falling from her eyes. No one knew what the tear glands of this little doll were made of, but she kept crying and did not forget to stand on tiptoe to kiss his cheek.
As for words, I don’t know if it was because of the constant sobbing or the fear and panic in my heart, but I couldn’t utter a single word.
Liu Yuan could only reach out his hand and wipe the smooth face of the little doll to clean all the precious golden beans. However, when Hong Fu felt the rough and old touch of his palm, she became so anxious that she cried even harder.
Hu Zhizhi has transformed and is supplying him with pure power of mountains and seas, which is countless times stronger than ordinary spiritual power treatment. The girl's face is serious, which is very different from her usual cute appearance. From her performance in front of the ruins of the Nine Ding Secret Realm, it can be seen that she is actually the most mature among the several "daughters". At this moment, she also showed a calm psychological quality, and methodically extended Liu Yuan's life and checked his condition by the way.
But she still showed a bit of anxiety between her brows. Liu Yuan's current situation was like a candle in the wind, and he was in great danger. If they were even a minute later, they would have to go to Fengdu Realm to find him.
Zhizhi took a deep breath and closed her eyes. A bead emitting a light green light floated out from the center of her chest. The room was instantly filled with vitality. The wooden furniture in the corner even came to life and sprouted new leaves.
This is what Liu Yuan really needs to hatch the Golden Crow True Yang, the spiritual core of the spirit of mountains and seas.
The bead slowly floated into Liu Yuan's heart. In an instant, a strong heartbeat sounded in the room. Light green spiritual patterns spread across Liu Yuan's body, quickly healing the aging symptoms on his body.
Huang Quan's eyes flashed behind the mask, and he murmured, "It turns out that he really has the spirit of the mountains and the sea... Humph!"
She groaned, turned around and glared at Ling Yao angrily.
The cold Taoist nun spread out her five fingers, tugged at the invisible ropes, and said calmly, "Don't try to have any bad thoughts. I don't think you would like to be led around like a dog... to let others see what the Lord of Biluo Palace looks like now."
Huang Quan was ashamed and angry at first, but then he calmed down and said with a smile: "I should be considered his forbidden delicacy now. He probably won't allow others to see his things, right?"
Ling Yao smiled faintly and said, "So, you are admitting your status as a slave?"
Huang Quan was speechless for a moment, and subconsciously looked at Liu Yuan. After realizing his action, he immediately turned around and spat: "I don't..."
Ling Yao interrupted, "If it's not, it's just a dog at most. What's the problem if I take it out for a stroll?"
Huang Quan: "..."
The Lord of Biluo Palace glanced at Ling Yao's expression. This woman's hatred for her had reached its peak because of what happened not long ago. With Liu Yuan's guidance, she has now gone off track and is heading in an unknown direction... She has already gotten into the role.
Although the Taoist nun Lingyao is detached from the world and has a simple and indifferent mind, a woman who is angry because of a man is irrational.
This woman with a cold and beautiful appearance told Huang Quan with her icy eyes that she would keep her word. If Huang Quan said no now, then perhaps in the next second she would take her to visit the Wuyin Cliff Demon Cult branch.
I was just influenced by Mei Sheng, Huang Quan said to himself, and then whispered coldly and humiliatingly: "I am."
Ling Yaoqing smiled coldly, distant yet gentle: "Good boy, good boy."
The hair is creepy.
Huang Quan was silent for a moment, feeling that perhaps something was wrong with this world-famous righteous fairy, and the culprit was not actually her, but the dying man.
She once again cast a complicated look at Liu Yuan. The power of the mountain and sea spirits was so amazing that the young man's condition quickly stabilized.
