() At this time, a middle-aged man in his forties who was slightly fatter and wearing a purple collared shirt stepped in.
This middle-aged man had a kind face, a smile, and even a humble expression.
After entering, everyone clasped their fists, saluted, and passed by while greeting each other.
When he was in Yunyao County, Liu Xia found out that this person's name was Yue Qingshan.
Immediately, the door to the hall was slowly closed.
At that moment, everyone in the hall knelt on the ground, kowtowed and shouted: "I bow to the elder Tiancan."
Liu Xia naturally followed the others and knelt on the ground. At this moment, she couldn't help but be secretly surprised.
As expected, this fat man who looked so friendly turned out to be an elder of the notorious Infant Training Sect.
It seems that his status in the sect is not low.
Ordinary people only think that he is a businessman full of money. Who would think about this?
"Everyone, please get up. This urgent summons for you is really a big deal. Thank you for your hard work."
Yue Qingshan groaned and said.
At that moment, everyone in the hall stood up one after another.
At this time, a man wearing a Phoenix mask came out from behind the screen in the hall.
Seeing this, Liu Xia couldn't help but be stunned.
"Why do people from the Holy Religion appear here?"
Liu Xia had suspicious suspicions in her heart, but she was relieved immediately.
Aren't Xuan Jing and Jing Hong, who once wanted to deal with him, both members of the Tianyin Demon Sect? They must have colluded with this holy sect for a long time.
"This is the Master of Yuanyin Hall of the Holy Religion. We are short of manpower this time, so I specially asked people from the Holy Religion to help."
Yue Qingshan hurriedly introduced him.
"See Elder Vowel."
At that moment, everyone in the hall held their fists and saluted.
Obviously, this is not the first time that the Holy Cult has cooperated with the Lian Ying Sect. It seems that their relationship is very close.
"Everyone, thirty-five years ago, an elder of our sect accidentally got the news that in the Bodhi Temple in Tianheng Mountain, not far from here, a Holy Demon Highness of our sect was sealed. However, not long after he got this news,
An accident happened. Fortunately, people from the Holy Religion discovered the elder’s body two months ago. Therefore, we
Knowing this news, we are the descendants of the demon clan, and it is our duty to rescue His Highness the Holy Demon. Therefore, this elder has summoned everyone to take action together. Your lord, the sect leader, has given me full authority for this operation. He, old man, in the past few days
I will arrive soon as well. Please join me in welcoming His Highness the Holy Demon out of the gate to enhance the power of our sect."
At this moment, Yue Qingshan said excitedly.
As soon as he finished speaking, the people practicing Yingzong below all looked horrified.
Immediately, they became excited one by one, and their eyes were filled with fanatical admiration, which made Liu Xia feel a little shuddering.
Liu Xia had heard before that some demon sects enshrined the demons as their ancestors and called themselves the descendants of the demons.
He acts as cruel and tyrannical as a demon, and has long been looked down upon by people in the world.
Unexpectedly, this Lian Ying Sect was actually one of them.
Could it be that the Holy Demon Highness they spoke of was a demon that was sealed in ancient times?
Liu Xia thought anxiously.
"Senior, did you hear that just now?"
Liu Xia asked hurriedly.
"I heard, they are really a bunch of lunatics. The holy devil they talk about is probably a demon. No matter what they say this time, they will not succeed."
Ao Cangqiong said angrily.
"It seems that we have to summon the northwest sects, otherwise something bad will happen."
Liu Xia was thinking silently in her heart.
"We will follow the elder to the death and welcome His Highness the Holy Demon of our religion."
At that moment, everyone in the hall knelt on the ground, clasped their fists and shouted.
"Okay, let's invite a few of us to stay here for a few days. I have already personally inspected the seal. In five days, there will be the Lunar New Year that happens every ten years. At that time, the seal that seals His Highness the Holy Demon will be the most fragile.
At that time, we will destroy the Bodhi Temple in one fell swoop. Okay, everyone, go and have a rest. You are not allowed to catch babies nearby in these days, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble. If anyone ruins the good things of this sect, don't blame me for being ruthless.
"
After saying this, Yue Qingshan's expression changed and he solemnly warned.
"As commanded."
At that moment, everyone in the hall clasped their fists and saluted, and then left.
Naturally, a servant then arranged for them to go to the guest room.
After a while, Liu Xia found an excuse and ran out, then went straight to the inn in Yunyao County and quit his disguise.
"Brother, with the strength of the three of us alone, I'm afraid something will happen. There are so many people on the other side. Obviously, those attending the gathering today are all the backbones of the Lian Ying Sect. There are also many disciples who are not qualified to attend, but I'm afraid
Everyone is already gathering here."
Caiwei said worriedly.
"The Infant Training Sect is not in trouble, but the Holy Sect is in trouble. God knows how strong they are in the northwest right now."
Liu Xia said thoughtfully.
"In this case, Wen Xin, you should leave now and go to Weiyang City to find Dabao immediately. Tell him what is going on here. He is a disciple of the Cihang Yin Sect and is very convincing in the northwest sect. I want Qingxu
They will not sit idly by and ignore it."
"Caiwei, follow me back to Lingkong Mountain immediately. With my status, I'm afraid I won't be able to deal with the Holy Cult. But Liu Xia can."
At that moment, the three people acted separately and disappeared on the vast official road in the blink of an eye.
Late at night, Liu Xia brought Caiwei to Lingkong Town. Liu Xia's honor guard was still parked here.
After getting past the guards, Liu Xia easily entered Zhang Tianhu's room.
Zhang Tianhu has been worried about Liu Xia's safety these days.
However, you can't carry it with you in Lingkong Mountain all the time. Although Lingkong Mountain has beautiful scenery, you can't stand to wander there every day.
At this moment, I am crawling on the table, looking at the map of the northwest, worrying about it and making plans for one stop.
Suddenly hearing someone push the door open and come in, Zhang Tianhu couldn't help but be startled, and then he said with an overjoyed smile: "Your Majesty, why are you here?"
"It's a long story, and now is not the time for small talk. We said it on the way. We will start driving immediately and go to Yunyao Mountain."
When Zhang Tianhu saw Liu Xia's expression and dared to ask more questions, he hurried out and asked the honor guard to prepare for departure.
Immediately, Liu Xia changed into the prince's court clothes and returned to his room.
In less than half an hour, Liu Xia's honor guard set off from Lingkong Mountain in a mighty manner.
In the middle of the night, the cars and horses rustled, causing local residents to watch through their windows.
"Your Majesty, what happened?"
Zhang Tianhu asked quietly in the car.
"I got the news a few days ago that the Holy Cult and the Infant Training Sect are going to release a demon clan. I have already had someone notify the northwest sect, but I still feel uneasy. I will go and see if anything happens.
Very easy to deal with.”
"Demon?"
Zhang Tianhu frowned and asked.
"Well, it should be. Has Mr. Zhang ever heard about the demon clan?"
Liu Xia asked curiously. After all, he was in the northwest and rarely heard about demons. If he hadn't seen Yao Wenxin with his own eyes this time, he even thought that demons had disappeared from the Dragon Soul Continent.
I believe that many people have the same idea as Liu Xia.
However, Zhang Tianhu is your minister in Longdu after all. News from all over the country will be gathered in Longdu, so naturally he will hear much more than Liu Xia.
"Over the years, Wei Chen has heard some things about the demon clan. In the past ten years, it seems that the activities of the demon clan have become more frequent inexplicably. However, most of them have been dealt with."
Zhang Tianhu said calmly, and then reminded in a low voice: "Your Majesty, this kind of matter is always handled jointly by the local Supervisory Office and the Tianxia Sect. It seems inappropriate for us to come forward."
"Does the Inspectorate still care about this?"
Liu Xia asked curiously. In Liu Xia's impression, the Inspectorate was indeed responsible for handling disputes between sects in various places, but he did not expect that they still had this authority.
"The Inspectorate is directly under the jurisdiction of the Holy One. When things go dark, they are the ones who come forward to deal with it."
Zhang Tianhu hurriedly explained.
"I see. The situation this time is special. If I hadn't gone, Fu Jianfei alone wouldn't be able to deal with the Holy Cult. The Holy Cult will be more careful when I'm there."
Liu Xia smiled lightly.
"Since the prince has decided, I will give my full assistance."
Zhang Tianhu, you immediately cupped your fists and said with a smile.
Caiwei on one side gave Liu Xia a meaningful look.
Liu Xia knew that this girl could read minds, and probably knew some secrets.
But Caiwei's red hair was too eye-catching, so she asked in a low voice: "Junior sister, you can disguise yourself later. If people find out that you are following me, my other identity may be revealed."
"It's okay, I know."
Caiwei said impatiently.
Immediately, the honor guard set off towards Yunyao Mountain in a mighty manner.
Several county towns, state capitals, and local officials that he passed along the way came out to greet him and see him off. However, Liu Xia was rushing along without stopping.
It was too late for those officials to hide from Liu Xia at this moment. They still wanted to see Liu Xia, so they just made a show of it.
There were many people in the honor guard, so the movement was slow. It was not until ten o'clock in the evening the next day that they arrived at Yunyao County.
The local magistrate never dreamed that Liu Xia, the god of plague, would come back. When he heard the news, he almost pissed himself with fear.
He hurriedly took the people from the county government out of the city to greet him.
After some pleasantries, Liu Xia moved into the magistrate's mansion.
Immediately, the entire mansion was surrounded by water, and the county magistrate was afraid that something would happen, so he specially mobilized a part of the militia to patrol.
For a moment, the quiet city of Yunyao County suddenly seemed nervous, as if facing a formidable enemy.
Yunyao County is neither a transportation thoroughfare nor a distribution center for commercial goods, so Liu Xia's sudden visit will naturally arouse suspicion.
Early the next morning, Liu Xia took hundreds of followers and headed straight for Bodhi Temple under the leadership of the magistrate in the name of sightseeing.
In the morning, Liu Xia entered the Bodhi Temple.
The abbot of the temple hurriedly came out to greet him.
"Amitabha, poor monk Huikong, see the prince."
Zen Master Huikong put his hands together slightly, bowed his waist slightly, and hurriedly saluted Liu Xia.
"Abbott, you're welcome. I passed by your temple today and heard the evening drums and morning bells. You suddenly felt like you were enlightened, so you came here to have a look. If you are bothering me, please don't blame me, abbot."
"Amitabha, I don't dare. Your Majesty is old and our temple is full of glory. Please invite Your Majesty to serve tea in the side hall."
Zen Master Huikong was extremely polite and took Liu Xia and the magistrate into your bedroom.
After some pleasantries, Liu Xia smiled and said: "Master Zhou, I have some private matters to ask the Zen Master. I would like to ask Master Zhou for your convenience."
When the magistrate heard this, he hurriedly left.
At this moment, only Cai Wei and Liu Xia were left in the Zen room.
"May I ask the abbot, is there a demon clan sealed in Bodhi Temple?"
Liu Xia asked straight to the point.
When Zen Master Huikong heard this, he couldn't help being surprised, but then he smiled very calmly and said: "Amitabha, the poor monk doesn't understand what the prince said."
