Lu Xueqi followed Li Qingan with a smile in her eyes.
She ignored the demonic sect below and unconditionally trusted Li Qing'an.
...
The next day,
It is located several dozen miles outside Fengyue Pass.
The news that the Ghost King Sect disciples killed a squad of Ten Thousand Poisons Sect disciples yesterday spread throughout the demonic sect disciples of Fengyue Pass within an hour.
The two sides continued to clash, but no major casualties were reported.
"Holy Envoy, the situation has completely changed. If we continue with our previous strategy of not going all out, we fear we will suffer heavy losses!"
The Ghost King Sect disciple bowed to You Ji.
"Have you found out why we suddenly started fighting with the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect and why several disciples died?"
"Holy Envoy, I have some news. According to the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect, it was my Ghost King Sect that struck first, and both sides suffered heavy losses. However, one disciple of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect named Li Fen managed to escape back, and he has been spreading the news extensively!"
"How is that guy named Li Fen doing now?" You Ji sensed something was wrong when she heard a name.
"do not know."
"But the most important thing right now is our disciples. They all believe that the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect is slandering them, and they are now fiercely planning to take revenge!"
"Has the message been conveyed to the sect leader?"
Yu Ji turned her head and looked at the stagnant atmosphere outside.
She has to be careful, or a fight might really break out.
The relationship between the four major sects of the Demonic Cult is not so harmonious. If it weren't for the righteous path suppressing them, this would not be such a simple test.
"The message has been sent, but judging by the timeline, it should take a few more days for the sect leader to reply. This matter still needs the Holy Envoy's decision!"
"I see!"
Youji nodded, "Be prepared! If they make a move, there's no need to be modest!"
"As the Holy Envoy commands!"
The Ghost King Sect disciples bowed respectfully and then slowly departed.
Thus, the war at Fengyue Pass began.
However, perhaps all three factions are rational, and the elders of Shangqing Realm have not yet made a move.
"Saint Envoy of Vermilion Bird, I never expected the Ghost King Sect to invite you here. It's truly a waste of your talent!"
Ancestor Duanmu stood on a mountain peak outside Fengyue City, watching the figures on the other two mountain peaks.
Wherever it goes, grass, trees, flowers, and stones are all corroded.
"Enough with the idle talk. Your Ten Thousand Poisons Sect disciples are now killing my Ghost King Sect disciples. How are you going to resolve this? If you don't give us an explanation, I'm afraid we'll have to fight here!"
Youji placed her hands together on her abdomen, her whole body enveloped in flames.
"I don't understand what you mean, Holy Envoy. According to my disciples, it was your Ghost King Sect that struck first!"
Old Ancestor Duanmu was not to be outdone. His two friends in the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect, Bai Duzi and the Blood-Sucking Old Demon, both died on Liubo Mountain.
All of this was proposed by the Ghost King Sect.
Because of that damned Kui Niu, he is now practically all alone in the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect.
Logically speaking, he should hate Li Qing'an, but anyone who has witnessed Li Qing'an's formidable power at Liubo Mountain would feel fear towards him.
Therefore, the only people he could hate were those from the Ghost King Sect, and right now there was one right in front of him!
He bullies the weak and fears the strong; this is something he can easily do with the Demonic Sect!
Although You Ji is not exactly an easy target!
On the other side, the elder of the Hehuan Sect chuckled:
"Hey, you two, don't get so angry!"
Judging from her voice alone, she is undoubtedly a stunningly beautiful woman, but unfortunately, that is not the case.
This woman was plain-looking, but her voice was exceptionally captivating.
This seemed especially strange in the Hehuan faction, which was full of beautiful women.
Therefore, it is evident that this woman must have expended a great deal of energy to cultivate to the Shangqing Realm!
Moreover, judging from his words and actions, although he tried to dissuade the two, he seemed to be showing signs of joining forces with the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect.
But Youji didn't see the Hehuan Sect elder's eyes filled with a hint of disgust as he looked at Ancestor Duanmu.
However, all of this was well concealed.
Even neither Ancestor Duanmu nor Youji could see anything!
Chapter 172 Lu Xueqi and Su Yue depart!
"Holy Envoy, what is your opinion?"
"Old Ancestor Duanmu asked."
"That disciple named Li Fen from the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect is definitely suspicious. Hand him over, and my Ghost King Sect will give you face!"
Yu Ji's cool voice reached their ears.
"To the Holy Envoy's dismay, he is dead! He returned to our camp and succumbed to his wounds!"
Ancestor Duanmu looked apologetic.
The elders of the Hehuan Sect understood immediately, "That's right, Holy Envoy, since the person is already dead, let's stop for now!"
"That's it!"
Looking at the two of them, You Ji knew perfectly well that it didn't matter whether Li Fen lived or died.
This incident became an opportunity for the two factions to unite.
It seems this battle is unavoidable!
At most, we'll see how far the fight goes and when to stop.
But that's not something she should worry about.
When she's out in the world, she has to be adaptable and also consider the attitudes of the Ghost King Sect disciples.
When to stop is something the Ghost King needs to consider.
Say it.
The Vermilion Bird, formed from flames, cried out and hurtled straight toward Ancestor Duanmu.
"Sister Zhuque, why are you in such a hurry? Wouldn't it be better to discuss it some more?"
The elder of the Hehuan Sect was extremely affected and pretentious, his whole body radiating a pink glow, with peach blossoms faintly falling.
Despite Li Qing'an's occasional dominance over You Ji, You Ji is one of the four holy envoys of the Holy Sect.
The patriarch Duanmu was much older than Youji in his cultivation, but cultivation is not just about age.
Given You Ji's strength, only by joining forces with the elders of the Hehuan Sect can Ancestor Duanmu contend with her, and even barely defeat her.
If we want to defeat You Ji, we will have to resort to his hidden methods.
Ancestor Duanmu conceived the idea of experimenting on people. He also wanted to see if experts at the third or fourth level of the Shangqing Realm could escape the effects of his highly nourishing substance.
However, being a smart man, he naturally couldn't use it openly and honestly; he needed a perfect scapegoat.
As he pondered, a strange smile appeared on the aged face of the Old Ancestor Duanmu.
Not far from the three of them, in the sky, on a white cloud.
Su Yue was shocked to see the dazzling light through the array set up by Li Qing'an. She hid behind Li Qing'an and cried out.
"Master, run! They're fighting!"
"If you say another word, I'll throw you down so you can see it up close!" Li Qingan said helplessly.
My eldest disciple is far too cowardly!
Upon hearing this, Su Yue's face paled with alarm, and she quickly covered her mouth.
Then he moved away from Li Qingan and walked behind Lu Xueqi.
"Master's wife, sister, let's go back. It looks too dangerous here!"
Su Yue said to Lu Xueqi in a coquettish tone.
The sight of mountains collapsing and rocks splitting below terrified her.
If my small body were to get hit by one, wouldn't I be dead instantly?
Lu Xueqi was somewhat embarrassed and turned to look at Li Qingan.
Su Yue blinked her small eyes at Li Qing'an, her eyes glistening with a hint of moisture.
Looking at the two of them, Li Qingan had no choice but to nod in agreement.
Perhaps I was indeed a bit too strict with Su Yue.
Li Qingan thought to himself.
"Sister Master's wife, you are the best in the world!"
Su Yue bounced around behind Lu Xueqi.
Li Qingan continued, "You all go back first, I'll stay here and see what's going on."
He was curious about how the three factions would end things now.
"Oh? Never mind then, I'll wait for Master!"
Su Yue hesitated for a few moments, looking at the unsettling magical fluctuations below, then gritted her teeth and decided to wait and leave with Li Qing'an.
Li Qing'an felt somewhat gratified, knowing that his disciple still cared for his master.
"No need. Your master's wife isn't worried, so why are you? Just go to Tianzhen Peak and wait for me to come back!"
