In the original story, Miao Xiaodie, the current Holy Maiden of the Five Immortals Sect, was a genius of her time. Her witchcraft was unmatched, and even the leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect was probably slightly inferior to her. However, according to the plot, no one knew that the leader of the Five Immortals Sect was such a powerful figure at this time.

Xiao Yuhan knew that this trip to Nanzhou would be fraught with danger, and he had already started to make plans. The most terrifying enemy in this chapter was Long Tu, the leader of the Blood God Sect, so the enemy of my enemy is my friend.

In its early days, when the Blood God Sect was still in power, it was the only dominant force in the Southern Region, and the people of the Southern Frontier suffered greatly from it. The predecessor of the Five Immortals Sect was the Miao Seventy-Two Caves, which formed an alliance to resist the Blood God Sect. After the Blood God Sect was destroyed, the Five Immortals Sect was established in order to dominate the Southern Frontier.

So when they arrived at a Miao village where a family was staying, Xiao Yuhan and Nangong Ling'er discussed things privately.

"Junior Sister Nangong, I think we can seek help from the Five Immortals Sect."

The girl in green was puzzled and immediately asked, "Why? Is Senior Brother Xiao worried about the dangers of this trip?"

"First, this Southern Frontier is still the territory of the Five Immortals Sect. Second, have you heard about Senior Brother Liu's affairs? It's not that I don't trust him, but if the Blood God Sect's affairs are related to Long Xiaoyu, it might become his biggest weakness."

"Long Xiaoyu? I think I heard the sect leader mention her back then. Wasn't she the murderer who killed Master?"

Xiao Yuhan knew the truth, but dared not reveal it at this time. She could only say based on her understanding in the original work: "She was once the Holy Maiden of the Blood God Sect. My master died at her hands. The last time she met Senior Brother Liu was at the Heavenly Sword Sect. That year, Senior Brother was soft-hearted and let her go. The two parted ways. Senior Brother made a solemn vow that he would never show mercy again if they met again."

Nangong Ling'er shook her head. "No matter what Senior Brother Liu thinks, Long Xiaoyu is still the murderer who killed Master. If I meet her, I will not be lenient, no matter what kind of relationship she had with Senior Brother Liu."

Xiao Yuhan sighed, "That's why I said we should seek help from the Five Immortals Sect. It's true that Senior Brother Liu can defeat Long Tu, but if Long Xiaoyu is added to the mix, he definitely won't really go all out."

Hearing this, Nangong Ling'er also became worried, "But... the Five Immortals Sect has never communicated with the immortal sects of the Central Plains, so they may not be so easy to talk to."

"When it comes to hatred for the Blood God Sect, they are definitely more intense than anyone else. Now that Dragon Slayer has returned, the Five Immortals Sect will never sit idly by."

"So, Senior Brother Xiao means we should secretly contact the Five Immortals Sect behind Senior Brother Liu's back?" Nangong Ling'er asked.

"No need for that. But just to be on the safe side, we must persuade him to contact the Five Immortals Sect. After all, you know Senior Brother Liu's arrogant nature, bad temper, and inability to listen to advice. He has always been at odds with me, so he will listen to me even less."

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Jiantang pushed open the door and entered, looking at the two of them. "Don't worry, if I see that person again... I won't show any mercy. As for the Five Immortals Sect you mentioned, we can make contact with them!"

Seeing this, Xiao Yuhan asked awkwardly, "Senior Brother Liu, did you hear everything?"

“I wouldn’t stoop to eavesdropping on your conversation. I came here to tell you to hurry up and get on your way, but I happened to overhear some of it. So next time, you can discuss this kind of thing directly with me. There’s no need to talk about it in private. I’m not so stubborn as to not listen to any advice.” After saying that, Liu Jiantang walked out with his sword, indicating that he would wait for them outside the door.

But he stopped after taking only two steps. "By the way, Junior Brother Xiao, it's not that I don't get along with you, it's just that this is my nature. And you are by no means a kind person. You know in your heart what you have done. Although you have restrained yourself recently, no one is a fool. I hope you have truly repented and not just want to put on an act!"

Xiao Yuhan stood there stunned, knowing that in the original story, Xiao Yuhan and Liu Jiantang had been fellow disciples for decades and naturally knew some of each other's secrets. Moreover, the Xiao Yuhan of the past was not a good person either, and he was able to gain a foothold in the Heavenly Sword Sect by deceiving his senior brother, the sect leader.

Thinking about it carefully, Xiao Yuhan also did a lot of underhanded things for his own benefit in the original work. Once a person's image is rooted in someone else's mind, it is very difficult to change. Therefore, he can understand Liu Jiantang's wariness of him.

However, he was already used to it, and then smiled slightly at Nangong Ling'er, "Senior brother is really aloof, but... was he eavesdropping just now?"

Nangong Ling'er smiled slightly: "I didn't know, but you should do less of talking behind people's backs in the future, Senior Brother."

"Where did I say anything bad about him?!"

"You said Senior Brother Liu has a bad temper and doesn't listen to advice, isn't that a bad thing?"

Xiao Yuhan waved his hand awkwardly, offering no further explanation, then turned and called Bai Yao to join him, "Let's go!"

"System notification: The host has altered the plot. Due to some special reasons, you have triggered a hidden quest. The system will initially reward you with 5,000 points. If the host can complete the hidden quest at the Five Immortals Sect, you will be rewarded with 50,000 points. Does the host decide to accept the hidden quest?"

"What?! Is there such a good thing? I've already been rewarded with 5,000 points before even accepting the mission? And another 50,000 after completing it? Are you kidding me? Now that I have points, I feel much more at ease about the Blood King's Cave storyline. Tell me, what is the storyline mission?" Xiao Yuhan asked.

"The host has only two choices: accept or not accept. Once accepted, it cannot be abandoned unless the host dies. This task has no time limit; as long as the host can complete it, points will be awarded directly!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuhan became even more curious and immediately decided, "Sure! I won't lose out anyway. What impact will it have on me if I can't complete it?"

"Won't!"
