Chapter 287: Each One's Own Calculations
Xie Mingzhu has not had an easy time these days.
At the beginning, she joined forces with several demon cultivators who were interested in her, and finally gained a foothold in the garrison city and became the leader of the demon cultivator team.
But before Xie Mingzhu could be happy for long, the monster siege began.
It was because they had been in chaos for too long that they had no time to contact the world of cultivation, unlike the righteous side who received many new supporters.
They had already lost a lot of people due to the ghost incident, and suddenly they had no ability to fight against monsters.
Fortunately, the skin-covered ghost was discovered by the righteous path. The demons hated the righteous cultivators even more, so the number of demons sent to the side of the demon cultivators was not large, and they were able to barely hold on.
As the leader of the demon cultivators, even if Xie Mingzhu no longer wanted to contribute, he was forced to stand in the front and help others to clear out the monsters.
Xie Mingzhu, who had never suffered such hardship in her past or present life, was naturally extremely dissatisfied, but she had no other choice now. After all, the monsters would not give her much preferential treatment just because she was the reincarnation of an immortal.
After two sieges, Xie Mingzhu suffered a lot of injuries.
Especially in the second siege, if there hadn't been a few demon cultivators and evil cultivators who were fond of her and came to her aid, Xie Mingzhu would probably have died long ago.
After experiencing this kind of danger, Xie Mingzhu was completely frightened.
She regretted being so impulsive, running to Senluo Realm just after hearing a little news. But now the special teleportation talisman was still ineffective, and she had no way to leave here.
Helplessly, Xie Mingzhu could only continue to endure and pray that the whereabouts of the sacred object would be found soon.
However, the demon cultivators she arranged to go out were never very obedient to her. Every time they were sent out on a mission, they would just wander around outside the garrison city and never really searched for the magical object for Xie Mingzhu.
Xie Mingzhu became more and more annoyed, but there was nothing she could do about it. She was feeling depressed when she heard the news from the righteous side.
Others might not believe that Zhengdao was looking for treasure, but as soon as Xie Mingzhu heard it, she felt that this must be related to the magical object she was looking for.
It is estimated that the treasure that the righteous path wants is the divine object. This news is probably obtained from a sect leader or city lord of the righteous path.
The other party didn't want his disciples to know this secret, so he deliberately used the excuse of treasure to cover it up.
Thinking back to the sudden arrival of a group of new people from the righteous side, Xie Mingzhu became more certain of his guess.
This must be the righteous who got wind of the news about the divine object and sent newcomers to look for the treasure.
Thinking of this, Xie Mingzhu couldn't help but feel proud. As expected, her people were more reliable and knew about the divine object earlier than the righteous side.
It’s a pity that she has too few people to use, otherwise she wouldn’t have learned the whereabouts of the divine object from the righteous side.
However, Xie Mingzhu was also a little puzzled as to how the clues about the divine object could be leaked so easily from the righteous side.
She secretly asked someone to investigate, and finally found out that a famous cultivator in Quege City had a grudge against a female cultivator in Qingxiao Sect.
Ever since coming to the Senluo Realm, he has been keeping an eye on the other party, looking for an opportunity to exact revenge.
He unexpectedly discovered that the man's whereabouts were strange, and then he secretly found out that they were going to the monster's lair.
This news was spread deliberately by the cultivator, hoping to lure the demon cultivators and evil cultivators over there, so that the female cultivator would suffer a great loss and get injured.
This explanation was quite reasonable. Xie Mingzhu had heard about the incident in Quege City before and knew that the monks in that city had a mediocre reputation outside.
It is perfectly normal that they would be at odds with the Qingxiao Sect, which has always claimed to be the leader of the righteous path.
After dispelling the doubts in her heart, Xie Mingzhu eagerly prepared to go to the monster's nest to learn.
The demon cultivators who admired Xie Mingzhu couldn't bear to reject her, and agreed to go on the adventure with her without thinking.
However, one of the evil cultivators from the Ten Thousand Beasts Alliance was a little worried. He felt that there might be something fishy going on and did not want Xie Liuyin to act impulsively.
However, his caution was regarded as cowardice by others. Several demon cultivators mocked him without hesitation: "Ji Yan, if you are afraid, just say it directly. There is no need to make so many excuses."
"That's right. We are not the only ones going to the monster's nest this time. There are also people from the righteous side. They are not afraid. Are you not as good as them?"
Even in the Senluo Realm, where both sides had a common enemy, the demon cultivators still rejected the righteous path and spoke in a sarcastic manner.
The evil cultivator named Ji Yan wanted to make an acquaintance, but Xie Mingzhu had already stepped out to appease everyone: "Okay, everyone, don't say that about Brother Ji. He is definitely not a coward, he just cares too much about me."
"Mingzhu, what you said is wrong. We care about you too. We also know that the monster nest is dangerous, but we will protect you with our lives and will never let danger get close to you." A demon cultivator said, and deliberately looked at Ji Yan provocatively, "Unlike some people who are unwilling to contribute and are afraid of death. Just for their own sake, they are unwilling to help you."
This time, Xie Mingzhu stopped talking and just looked at Ji Yan with an embarrassed look on her face.
Among Xie Mingzhu's group of admirers, Ji Yan is relatively important. He has two extremely powerful magical beasts under his command, which are said to have been snatched from a powerful beast-taming monk.
Because of these two magical beasts, Ji Yan had to flee the world of cultivation to avoid being hunted down by his enemies.
These two monsters have been trained by Ji Yan to be very powerful over the years, and their strength is comparable to that of the God Transformation Stage.
Before, Xie Mingzhu was able to survive the tide of monsters thanks to Ji Yan.
She felt that if Ji Yan was willing to go to the monster's nest with her, her chances of survival would increase a lot.
So even if the man in front of her is unwilling, she will force him to agree.
Ji Yan frowned, feeling uneasy.
He actually has a special ability, which is to have a premonition of what is about to happen. It is precisely because of this premonition that he avoids many dangers and saves him countless times.
But every time Ji Yan thought about going to the monster's lair, he would feel a strong sense of fear in his heart.
This is why Ji Yan didn't want to agree to Xie Mingzhu.
But there was no way, he really liked Xie Mingzhu too much. It could be said that Ji Yan had given all his kindness in his life to Xie Mingzhu. How could he bear to make things difficult for her?
Finally, under Xie Mingzhu's expectant gaze, Ji Yan finally nodded.
Seeing Xie Mingzhu's instant smile, Ji Yan raised the corners of his mouth happily, and at the same time kept comforting himself in his heart: It's just a bad premonition, it doesn't mean that something will definitely go wrong.
Besides, even if an accident really happened, I could use my premonition to escape the danger with Mingzhu.
After repeating this silently several times, Ji Yan actually relaxed.
So, the action was decided.
At the same time, Xie Liuyin, who received the news of the actions of the demon cultivators, was silently wiping his sword.
She knew that her chance had come.
