Early the next morning, as soon as Dan Qing set out to find She Luo, Fan Ji appeared in front of me not long after.
The first thing she said when she saw me was: "Two people came from Yi Zong in the early morning."
"Who?"
"I don't know. Anyway, they are two new faces. One looks to be in his thirties and his Taoism is average. The other is in his early forties and his Taoism is not bad. Taoist priests like Kunlun will definitely not be able to defeat him."
She twirled her fingers as she spoke: "But they have a high status and Danxin came out to greet them personally. I guess these two people are the so-called special envoys of Hades."
"It came very quickly."
When I first heard the news, I was quite surprised, but after thinking about it, it actually didn't matter: "It doesn't matter, just come. As long as Danqing and She Luo get in touch with us, we can start it. It won't have much impact."
"Well, I'm just telling you."
Fan Ji stretched out: "It's still early, I'm going back to continue practicing."
After saying these words, she disappeared. I closed my eyes and continued to ponder the Heart Sutra.
At noon, a faint evil spirit drifted in from outside the door.
Then came Danqing's voice: "Master, I have brought this person back."
As soon as he said these words, the originally quiet mountain peak suddenly became very lively.
Several piercing sounds were heard, and the figures of the Xin Sect, including Xuan Zhen, appeared in the open space in front of the cave of the Sutra Pavilion. They all came, and I could only get up and walk out.
As soon as he went out, he saw She Luo with a cold face and his hands behind his back in a very pretentious manner. Although the demonic energy on his body was restrained, he still intentionally or unintentionally released the pressure that belongs to the demonic cultivator.
The two demon guards around him were even better at showing off. They did not conceal their aura of demon cultivators, and black mist continued to evaporate from their bodies. This corrosive demonic aura made all the flowers and plants in the courtyard wilted.
Quite a few.
"Hey, isn't this the little Taoist priest who was in charge of negotiating with me that day?"
Seeing me going out, She Luo started to taunt me: "How come you're not dead after you received a slap from me?"
I also sneered cooperatively: "The slap I gave you will be enough to make you feel comfortable for several days, right?"
She Luo rubbed his shoulders: "Your palm is not strong enough, and you are not even qualified to unblock my muscles and bones. Next time, try harder so that I can feel comfortable."
I squeezed out a sentence through my teeth: "Okay, next time I will beat you to death with a slap."
Seeing the tit-for-tat confrontation between the two of us, Danqing began to come forward to make peace: "This is Mr. She Luo from Tianxin Island who is responsible for contacting Kunlun. Business matters are important. Shouyan and your personal grudges will be put aside for now."
"What kind of personal grudge can I have against a little guy like him?"
She Luo sneered and turned his attention to Xuanzhen: "Looking at it this way, Fairy Xuanzhen's injury is not serious?"
Xuanzhen also had a cold face: "Why didn't the woman traveling with you come?"
"She? Hasn't she been in your heart sect for a long time?"
With a smug sneer on her lips, She Luo shouted: "Huan Ji, looking at the tense posture, if you don't show up, these little Taoist priests from the Heart Sect will besiege me."
With a "creak", the door of a monastery on the left side of the mountain was pushed open.
Fan Ji, who had disappeared from everyone's sight since last night, slowly walked towards the crowd, faced everyone's astonished eyes and stood in front of Xuan Zhen, and greeted her with a smile: "Fairy Xuan Zhen, Huan Ji of Tianxin Island is polite."
Different from the behavior of everyone who met Fan Ji yesterday, Xuan Zhen's face did not show any expression.
But I could also see the shock and confusion hidden in her eyes, and her tone was no longer as calm as before: "When did you fall in love with Xu Wenwen!"
"As soon as you arrived in Gilgit, I took over this girl's body."
Perhaps in order to give everyone a show of confidence, Huan Ji started to play tricks on her: "I thought all the Kunlun Sanxian were masters, but I didn't expect that you didn't see the flaw for a long time. To be honest, I'm a little disappointed."
Xuanzhen didn't offer any excuses, and just sighed softly: "I admit that I am not your opponent, but I have heard of your name, Fan Ji, the number one person under the Tianxin Island Elder's House, and you are indeed well-deserved."
"You don't have to belittle yourself. I have been practicing for longer than you, so my cultivation level is naturally higher than yours."
Fan Ji glanced around at everyone present: "But I'm a little curious, why do you think of cooperating with me? To be honest, I have been lurking in Xinzong for so long and I haven't found any decent bargaining chips from you.
In terms of relationship, the relationship between Yi Zong and Hades is much closer than yours; in terms of strength, even the dozen masters of Yi Zong are not something you can fight against, and in terms of the number of people... Do you have fifty disciples of the Heart Sect in total?
With these dozens of people, a few ancient artifacts and a loose immortal, are you going to fight against the Yi Sect?"
After scolding her for a while, Huan Ji rubbed her temples: "I might as well tell you the truth, if it weren't for my interest in this little Taoist named Shouyan, I would not have agreed to let She Luo meet you.
After all, the task assigned to me by the Elder Council is to pressure Kunlun to force the Lord of Hell of the Seven Palaces out of the underworld. There is no need for me to sacrifice the near and seek the distant and risk damaging the relationship between the two parties by cooperating with you, right?"
What Fan Ji said was very straightforward. It means that you are too good at heart, so it is not impossible for me to help you. The premise is that you must first take out the chips and benefits.
At this time Danyang intervened: "The Heart Sect has an advantage that the Yi Sect cannot compare with."
Fan Ji chuckled: "What are the advantages? The leader might as well tell you about it."
"Yan Jun is the ancestor of my Heart Sect. If the Yi Sect can't invite him, it doesn't mean that my Heart Sect can't invite him either."
I suspected that Danyang was starting to make up lies, and this guy said without changing his face: "Your mission is to force Patriarch Duan Tian to show up. It's simple. You help me deal with Yi Zong, and I arrange for you to meet with Patriarch. How about that?"
"Not very good."
Fan Ji shook her head slightly: "The whole of Kunlun knows that the relationship between Yi Zong and Hades is much closer than the Heart Sect. Why should I believe that you can do something that even Yi Zong can't do?"
"Just because the 'Taiwei Heavenly Realm' where the Scripture Collection Pavilion is located is the former dojo of the ancestor."
Danyang pointed at the cave where the Sutra Pavilion is located: "The Patriarch left his spiritual imprint there. With it, I can communicate with the Patriarch at will and report what happened here to him. If you don't believe it,
You can go to the 'Taiwei Heavenly Realm' in person to have a look.
However, communicating with the Patriarch requires the leader’s token, and the token is with me. If you have the intention of bypassing me and communicating with the Patriarch directly through that mark, then I advise you to give up this idea as soon as possible.”
When Danyang said this, I really felt that this boy was not making it up, because a few days ago in the 'Taiwei Heavenly Realm', Duan Tian did personally tell me that he had left a so-called spiritual imprint there.
But there is still a question in my mind. The mark was left by Duan Tian when he was still the leader of Kunlun. If Danyang really used the leader's token, was he the real person or Duan Tian's inner demon that he contacted?
I was very curious, so I quietly sent a message to Fan Ji: "The acting is almost done, promise him, and find out what the mark is about by the way. Don't just play around, that Yan Jun killed him from the Sutra Pavilion."
It will be ruined if you come out."
Fan Ji hummed, then nodded to Danyang: "Yes, but you have to prove that you can do it first."
