"Yun Jin knows. As long as I can exchange a fairy fate for Di Wu and Le Feiyang, I am willing." Yun Jin whispered.
"well"
After hearing this, the white-bearded old man closed his eyes and was silent for a long time.
"Since this is your own wish, I will grant it to you. However, you have to go back and report this matter to the sect master. I'm afraid it won't be possible to bring them into our 'Hua Lei Sect', but the sect master can come forward and recommend them to the 'Tiansha Pavilion'
' and 'Shuiyue Palace', although these two sects are as famous as our sect, they do not have high qualification requirements for entry-level disciples, and they may betray the sect leader to save face."
"Thank you so much, Master Immortal!" Yun Jin was overjoyed and kowtowed again and again.
"Still called 'immortal master'?" the white-bearded old man said with a smile.
Yun Jin reacted and immediately said respectfully: "Thank you, Master!"
"Hahaha!"
The old man twirled his beard and smiled, waved his sleeves, and a spiritual light swept the two of them, and soon disappeared into the night in the courtyard.
Time and space change, and the stars move.
Endless darkness came, and I don't know how long it took, until a ray of dawn broke through the darkness.
The scene appears in a valley, filled with poisonous miasma and billowing mist. Various poisonous insects and beasts can be vaguely seen, as well as man-eating demonic flowers.
The sounds of fighting, roars, and screams kept coming from the valley.
I don’t know how long it took, but all the sounds gradually weakened, and the entire valley returned to eerie silence.
After a moment, a bloody hand reached out from below and grabbed a stone on the edge of the cliff.
With the force of his fingers, a young man covered in blood crawled out from below the valley.
This man was tall and thin, and his face covered by blood was vaguely handsome, especially his eyes, which shone with a lively brilliance.
There were people waiting on the edge of the cliff for a long time, including a middle-aged man in red robe, a strong man with bare breasts, an old man with white hair and beard, and a beautiful woman in palace attire.
"It seems that he is the leader this year." The man in red robe said expressionlessly.
The beautiful woman in palace clothes nodded slightly and said calmly: "This boy is not easy to come by. I have been observing him for a long time. It is definitely not a fluke that he can stand out from the many named disciples."
"Haha." The shirtless man smiled slightly and said disapprovingly: "The 'Ominous Valley Trial' is the only way for registered disciples to be promoted to outer disciples. They have to work hard. Besides, these registered disciples have mixed spiritual roots and qualifications.
They are inferior, if their character is no longer good, then why does our sect have the need to accept them?"
"alright."
The white-haired old man who had been silent before suddenly spoke, and the other three fell silent when they saw him speaking.
I saw the white-haired old man stepping forward, coming to the young man, caressing his head, and said with a slight smile: "My child, what is your name?"
The man wiped off the blood on his face and bowed to the old man in front of him: "Reporting to Uncle Master, my disciple's name is Di Wu."
"Di Wu...Okay, from today on, you are my outer disciple of Tiansha Pavilion. There is only one quota for a named disciple to be promoted to outer disciple every year. It is not easy for you to get this opportunity. The sect will ask you later
We will distribute the elixirs, talismans and magic tools needed for cultivation, and we will also give you three months to go home and visit your relatives."
Tiansha Pavilion is a demonic sect. Different from Hualei Sect, it recruits more than ten times as many disciples every year and does not pay much attention to spiritual root qualifications.
However, the competition in Tiansha Pavilion is extremely cruel. Not everyone can learn advanced Taoist techniques. Registered disciples are only taught some entry-level techniques during the Qi training period. If they want to be promoted to the outer sect, they must participate in the annual "Fierce Valley Trial"
, fighting each other inside, and the last person who survives can be promoted.
Before participating in the "Evil Valley Trial", all disciples are not allowed to leave the sect. They must either work hard in the sect until they die of old age, or participate in the trial and fight to the death. Registered disciples have only these two options.
Di Wu joined the sect more than five years ago and managed to reach the sixth level of Qi Refining. His strength was not the strongest among all the registered disciples. However, with his deep scheming, meticulous actions, and ruthless character, he finally had the last laugh.
"Thank you, uncle!"
Di Wu once again bowed and saluted the white-haired old man in front of him, a glint of excitement flashing in his eyes.
"You have low qualifications, and it is not easy to achieve this. This time when you go down the mountain, the dust is rolling in, and you are blinded by flowers. Don't make any mistakes. Remember! Remember!" the white-haired old man said with profound meaning.
"Disciple understands."
Di Wu smiled slightly and didn't seem to care much.
He said goodbye to the four people on the cliff, then turned around and left, walking slowly down the mountain road.
Looking at Di Wu's retreating figure, the four of them were thoughtful.
"Although this boy has a good nature, he still seems to have an obsession in his heart." The man in red robe said thoughtfully.
"Senior Brother Tianxuan's parting words, this guy doesn't seem to have listened at all!" the shirtless man said in a rough voice.
"It doesn't matter."
The white-haired old man's face was calm, and he said, "Everyone has his own destiny. The three-month visit to relatives is a compliment on the surface, but it is actually an assessment of our sect. If he goes down the mountain from this trip and falls into the world of mortals, he will not be able to kill him.
Cutting off the front edge is what his destiny should be, and he is not counted as a disciple of my Tiansha Pavilion."
"What senior brother said is absolutely true." Everyone else nodded.
Di Wu packed his bags, left Tiansha Pavilion, and headed north. It was already a month later when he arrived at Yaohua City.
Visiting the old place again will leave you with a special feeling in your heart.
Eighteen years ago, I was still a rich man, with no worries about food and clothing, and loving parents. It can be said that those days were carefree.
Until that day, everything was ruined!
Yu Guanhai!
It was this man who executed everyone in their Di Mansion, from the eighty-high hall to the newborn baby, and spared no one!
Poor his father, a weak scholar but a proud man, who could not bear the humiliation in prison and finally chose to commit suicide. And his mother, who had been frail and sick since giving birth to Di Wu, could not withstand such a prison sentence and soon followed his father.
Already.
Di Wu no longer has any blood relatives in this world.
From that day on, his life was full of suffering. Fortunately, God opened his eyes and did not let the Di family die. Not only did Di Wu survive, he also became a member of the Immortal Sect and practiced several spells. Now he has reached the sixth level of Qi Refining.
Cultivation.
Looking at the world, there are only a handful of martial arts masters who can defeat him. Even if there are, they are in the palace compound and cannot appear in this remote town.
Di Wu came here for revenge.
Although he had killed Yu Guanhai with a poisonous needle back then, instead of dissipating, the resentment had become stronger and stronger over the past eighteen years.
"The prefect who dispatched troops to Yu Guanhai, the accomplices who participated in framing my father, and the jailers who tortured my mother. I, Di Wu, will not let any of them go!"
Di Wu clenched his fists, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes!
In the next three days, Yaohua City seemed to be calm, but in fact, there was an undercurrent.
Di Wu used his own methods to find out all the accomplices who participated in framing his father in the shortest possible time.
In the dead of night, the door of a large courtyard was closed, but there was a strong smell of blood inside.
Among the corpses on the ground, a handsome man in white was smiling.
In front of him, there was a gray-haired couple and a child under five years old, who was crying behind them.
"I'm begging you! I was indeed sorry for your father back then, but you have wiped out my whole family, and now only this grandson is left. Can you leave some incense for my Wang family?" the old man begged.
His wife protected her grandson behind her and said in a harsh voice: "There is always a wrongdoer and a debtor. We were the ones who harmed your father back then. This kid wasn't born yet at that time. He is innocent! Please show mercy to us."
I can take my life at will, but I just want to spare my grandson!"
"hehe."
The man in white smiled so strangely that half of his white robe was dyed red with blood.
"Yes, your grandson did not participate in what happened back then, but I would like to ask, did any of you ever think of leaving an incense for my Di family back then?"
This question made the couple froze in place at the same time, not knowing how to answer.
"He is not innocent at all! Because being born in your family is his biggest sin!" The man in white's eyes became colder and colder. "If you want to blame him, blame him for being born in the wrong child!"
"I'll fight you!"
The old man suddenly burst out with astonishing strength, pulled out a short knife from his sleeve, and pounced towards the man in white.
However, before he could get close to the man in white, a ray of light pierced his chest, his eyes widened, and he fell down with a look of reluctance on his face.
"Beast!" The old woman cried beside her, her voice pitiful and pitiful.
However, the man in white's eyes did not waver at all.
The next moment, he pinched the magic technique with both hands, and the ray of light went away and came back again. "Thud! Thud!" twice, beating the old woman and the five-year-old child behind her into a pulp!
At this time, the glow dissipated, and it turned out to be a black iron cone, which was withdrawn into the sleeve of the man in white.
The bright moonlight flickered across the courtyard, and Di Wu stood in a pool of blood, his numb eyes seemed to have a slight fluctuation.
"Mom and dad, have you seen it? My son has become successful in cultivation. The enemy who harmed our family back then will not let go of any of his enemies!"
After muttering to himself, Di Wu's eyes gradually turned cold.
He took out a piece of white paper from his sleeve, which was full of names, most of which had been crossed out with bright red crosses.
After a moment of silence, Di Wu knelt down, dipped his hand into the blood on the ground, and drew a cross on the name "Wang Youde".
At this point, almost all the names on the white paper were covered with red crosses, except for one name left. Shangguan Wenfeng!
This person was the prefect in charge of this area, and he was the one who sent troops to Yu Guanhai back then.
According to Di Wu's investigation over the past three days, Yu Guanhai seemed to have been favored by the legitimate daughter of the Shangguan family, and finally succeeded in getting married, and it was because of this that he became a villain.
However, this person is not in Yaohua City, but lives in a larger town nearby.
"Shangguan Wenfeng must die!"
Di Wu's eyes narrowed slightly, with murderous intent boiling over him.
Under the moonlight, he slowly turned around and embarked on the final journey of seeking revenge.
At the end of the night, the scene turned to a quiet street.
At the end of the street, there is an elegant house.
This house occupies a very large area and is of extraordinary grandeur. There is a tall and mighty stone lion on the left and right sides of the gate. There is a plaque hanging on the lintel with the three characters "Shangguan Mansion" written on it.
Two guards in red robes stood at the door.
These two men had long knives at their waists, tall and straight figures, thick calluses on their hands, and glints in their eyes. At first glance, they were people with good martial arts skills.
It was noon, and the sun was shining brightly. Even though the heat was unbearable, the two of them were not tired at all, but in high spirits.
"Have you heard? The master's granddaughter came back last night." One of them said.
"Well, the master likes this granddaughter the most. It is said that there will be a big feast tonight, and those of us who are servants can also receive a lot of reward!" Another person laughed.
"That's great, we brothers can go to 'Yichun Courtyard' again to listen to music." The man from before said with a wink.
After hearing this, the other person laughed and showed an understanding expression.
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps suddenly coming from the end of the street. The two of them looked around and saw a man in white walking out from the corner at the end of the street.
This man was about twenty-five or six years old, with handsome features and strong features, and a faint smile hanging from the corner of his mouth. He looked very kind.
Not long after, the man in white came to the door of the house.
"stop!"
One of the guards shouted: "Who are you? Don't you know this is the prefect's mansion? How dare you wander around here!"
"Prefect."
The man in white murmured, raised his head and looked at the plaque on the lintel. After a long while, he said, "To be fair, I can be considered an old friend of the official family."
"Old friend?" The guard on the left raised his eyebrows and asked with some suspicion: "Who do you know in the mansion?"
"Shangguan Wenfeng." The man in white spit out these four words.
"Be bold!"
The two guards shouted loudly at the same time.
The person on the left scolded: "How dare you, a pickled person like you, call me by my first name? You also said that you know me, I think you are crazy!"
Another person also scolded: "Go, go, go! While my brothers are in a good mood today, get out of here or you will be beaten!"
"hehe."
The man in white was not angry when faced with the humiliation of the two people, but instead showed a strange smile.
The next moment, he suddenly opened his mouth and spit out a ball of black gas!
The two guards originally wanted to scold him again, but when they saw this scene, they couldn't help but widen their eyes with disbelief.
"you you!"
The two people's minds were blank, and they didn't know what to say for a moment, and the black energy was so fast that it came through the air at this time, giving them no time to react!
Just hearing a "whoosh!", the black air split into two in mid-air, piercing through the eyebrows of the two people almost at the same time.
The two fell silent instantly.
There was a mass of evil aura between their eyebrows, and the look in their eyes had disappeared, as if they were corpses, standing straight on the spot.
The man in white smiled slightly and stepped into the door of Shangguan's house.
Behind him, the two guards were still "loyally" guarding the door. If they didn't look carefully, people outside would not be able to notice anything strange, and would not know that these two people were actually dead.
