Chapter 49 Chapter 49 Exposed +1, Exposed +2.
The Righteous Alliance saw from afar that there were actually a hundred or so people, all of whom were representatives of various sects. Of course, these people were not all. The door to the secret realm would be open for five days, which meant that during these five days, there would still be cultivators from various sects coming.
Qin Zhou spotted a familiar face among the crowd.
"Is the reason why the Righteous Alliance doesn't join forces with the Sword Sect because of her?" Some of the casual cultivators were already discussing this.
"Zhengdao actually invited her!"
Qin Zhou followed their gaze and it seemed that the person these casual cultivators were talking about was a 'familiar face' to him.
"Who is that?"
"The first master of Xuanmen, Fairy Xuanji, Xuan Yiling."
"Unlike Elder Qianji, Qianji Divine Sect only looks at the future, while Fairy Xuanji has no sect or school, and is proficient in fortune-telling formations. She has been famous in the world of immortal cultivation for thousands of years."
"Xuan Yiling's position is not right. I heard that some people have seen her interacting with the Demon Sect, and some people say that she is also on good terms with the righteous sect. Some people also say that Xuan Yiling is a money-grubber, and as long as enough spirit stones are given, Xuan Yiling will come out. I originally thought it was fake, but I didn't expect..."
“I don’t know how many spirit stones the Righteous Alliance gave her to ask her to come out and help unlock the secret realm.”
In the secret realm, there are not only treasures, but also endless dangers. With the help of Xuan Yiling, a master of the Xuan Sect, the Righteous Alliance has a much greater chance of competing for the treasure.
The people from the Demon Sect also discovered Xuan Yiling in the Righteous Alliance.
The right guardian of the Demon Sect frowned, "Master, this is not good."
Xuan Yiling was a powerful person in the era of the Supreme Sect Master. Not to mention his combat power, just his Xuanmen skills...
As expected, Lu Xiao also became serious.
He stood up directly from the beast sedan chair, stepped lightly, and came in front of everyone.
He was dressed in a dark purple robe, had a slender figure, and could be described as dashing and elegant.
He is Lu Xiao, Qin Zhou thought.
Lu Xiao looked towards the Righteous Alliance from afar and said, "I was wondering what magic weapon the Righteous Alliance had to win this year. It turns out that they invited Aunt Xuanji."
Being called Aunt Xuanji by the leader of the Demon Sect, Xuan Yiling was not humble at all. She walked through the huge crowd of righteous monks and came to the front.
After exchanging a glance with Lu Xiao, she said calmly, “The righteous ones have more spirit stones.”
The implication is that she doesn't take sides.
"My father would be angry if he knew." Lu Xiao sighed, "Aunt Xuanji, our Demon Sect has invited you more than once."
Xuan Yiling: "The Demon Sect doesn't give enough. Your father is stingy, not as generous as you guys in the righteous sect."
When everyone heard this, they were all speechless.
How many spirit stones did the righteous path give?
However, the dozen or so major sects of the Righteous Alliance still have some foundation.
Only the major clans of the Righteous Path knew how much money they had spent to invite Xuan Yiling to help. Just looking at the dark faces of the clan leaders of the Righteous Path Alliance, they must have paid a lot.
Qin Zhou stared at Xuan Yiling's face, making sure he was not mistaken.
Xuan Yi Ling, little one hundred.
"I'm afraid the Demon Sect won't be so arrogant this time."
"The Righteous Alliance has quietly invited a powerful ancestor."
"What's going on with the Sword Sect and the Righteous Alliance?"
Qin Zhou could still hear the sounds of the casual cultivators eating melons, but he felt very surprised.
He remembered that Xiao Baishi was a fighting type of villager, but like Lao Shi, he turned to practicing Taoist magic.
There were few girls among the villagers, and those who survived in that chaotic time were all extremely tough. Xiao Yibai was no exception.
Xiao Baiyi was rescued by him and Lu Yi from the mouth of a spirit beast.
Later it was discovered that she was born with supernatural powers and a strong talent in fighting.
Although he is ranked 100th and the youngest, his fighting power should even be in the top 20.
It would be a pity to waste his talent in martial arts if he switched to practicing Xuanmen.
Of course, I have been a little bit of a money-grubber since I was a child.
But I didn't expect that Xiao Baiyi has become the "big boss" in the eyes of these cultivators.
Seems to be doing better than many.
This way, he felt much more at ease.
There were fewer girls among the villagers, and perhaps because of his modern thinking, he always cared more about the girls, although he also knew that the girls among the villagers were more capable than the others.
"Go, move a stool for Aunt Xuanji." Over there, Lu Xiao was already ordering people to move a stool.
Although the strong men of the Demon Sect were puzzled, they still did as they were told.
Xuan Yiling was not polite. After sitting down, he asked, "Is your father not coming?"
Lu Xiao: "Come. Coming right up."
Both dads should be here soon.
"Fairy Xuanji, don't forget what you promised us..." When the righteous sect leaders saw her chatting with Lu Xiao, the leader of the evil sect, they couldn't help but remind her with a gloomy face.
The person who was invited with so many spirit stones cannot be from the pro-demon faction.
"What I promised were only matters concerning the secret realm. Now that I am talking to my nephew, do you have the right to interrupt?" Xuan Yiling frowned, a hint of unhappiness on his cold little face.
"This... I dare not." The sect leader who spoke was obviously shocked.
There's no way. I can't afford to offend him.
"I told you not to look for Xuan Yiling, you don't believe me." The people in the Orthodox Sect could not help but speak. Xuan Yiling's stance was unclear, and he might suddenly change sides while walking in the secret realm.
"Without the Sword Sect, if you want to find the treasure, you can only look to her. Otherwise, if you go to look for it, you might die on the way before you even see the treasure!"
"So! Why not call on the Sword Sect!"
"What do you know! Shut up!"
There was actually an internal conflict.
But since there were so many monks present, they only said a few words before stopping.
The Righteous Alliance was the only one that did not notify the Sword Sect, the leader of the Righteous Alliance, this time. This is really hard to understand.
But it was also strange that the Sword Sect didn’t say anything about it.
It seemed as if the two had reached an agreement not to interfere with each other.
"People from the Thousand Machines Sect are here!" someone suddenly shouted.
At the same time, a group of blue-robed monks appeared in the sky, riding on magical cranes and coming in the mist.
The Qianji Divine Sect might not be as powerful as many of the great sects in the upper realm, but no one dared to offend them. Firstly, the Qianji Elders were able to explore the secrets of heaven, and no one wanted to offend the Xuanmen people. Secondly, it was because of the large groups of spirit beasts.
Elder Qianji, who can communicate with all spirits, has raised a mountain of high-level spirit beasts in the back mountain of the sect. If there is an order, these spirit beasts will flatten a sect in an instant.
Simply put, you can't afford to offend.
But a few days ago, Elder Qianji was abducted by the devil and was released not long after. No one knows what happened in the meantime.
Even in the end, the Qianji Divine Sect did not give an explanation to the immortal cultivation world. What did the demon say to the Qianji Elder... No one knows. Even others who came to ask were turned away by the Qianji Divine Sect.
As a result, the Qianji Divine Sect, which originally belonged to the righteous path, has recently been in an awkward position in the world of immortal cultivation.
Who could have thought that this group of free and easy blue-robed monks would actually come to the secret realm.
It seems that something must have happened when the devil abducted Elder Qianji.
Everyone raised their eyes immediately.
The people from the Thousand Machines Sect floated down.
But he walked to the side of Cang Yun Sword Sect.
"We have come to help the Sword Sect. Thank you for the Sword Sect's care before. The Thousand Machines Sect will definitely help the Sword Sect's cultivators seize the treasure." said the leading Thousand Machines Sect disciple.
When the Righteous Alliance heard this, their faces turned dark.
Before coming to the secret realm, they had invited the people from the Thousand Machines Sect, but they refused.
I didn't expect that at this point, he would actually come to help the Sword Sect on his own initiative.
Wasn't it because they came to ask a few more questions about the incident in which Elder Qianji was abducted by the demon? This group of vengeful Xuanmen disciples!
Seeing this, the Sword Sect's leader was naturally grateful, "It is a blessing for the Sword Sect to have the help of the Thousand Machines Divine Sect."
It turns out that all the secret realms in the past have been populated by the righteous and evil sects, plus a third group of independent cultivators.
This time, even before the secret realm was opened, there was already a hint of a four-way confrontation.
The Sword Sect split from the Righteous Alliance, and even had the help of the Thousand Machines Divine Sect. The Righteous Alliance, I'm afraid, can't dominate alone.
What’s more, there is the Demon Sect.
"It's the Fairy Xuanji and the Qianji Divine Sect again. It seems that everyone has made sufficient preparations this time. Unfortunately, our Demon Sect does not have many Xuanmen disciples."
An eternal sound came from far away and everyone immediately looked up.
A powerful pressure had already come, and dark clouds were pressing down from overhead, making people dare not look directly at that figure.
A figure appeared in the black cloud and finally stopped in front of the powerful men of the Demon Sect.
Sect Master Lu Xiao, who had led the crowd to applaud, had already stood up, walked behind the black shadow, and said respectfully -
"Meet the Grand Master."
"Greetings to the Supreme Master!" All the powerful men from the Demon Sect shouted in unison.
Everyone couldn't help but hold their breath.
Demon Sect, Supreme Sect Leader.
It’s coming this year too.
Qin Zhou felt the voice was familiar, and at first glance, he was also stunned.
Lu Qi?
Watch it again.
It’s Lu Qi for sure.
A few days ago, Lu Qi, who was still helping him in the fields and always called him the village chief.
"Xiao Yibai, if you go to help the righteous path without saying anything, I will be really angry." Lu Qi looked at the female cultivator who was sitting there carelessly in the Righteous Alliance with a half-smile on his face.
"You are too stingy." Fairy Xuanji looked calm, as if nothing could stop her from making money.
Obviously, there is a friendship between the two.
But Fairy Xuanji's position was originally with the third faction, and no one dared to say anything.
Before he could finish his words, there was other movement from the Sword Sect.
All the solemn and dignified Sword Sect members bowed their heads with their hands clasped—
"Sword Sect disciples, welcome the Sword Immortal Master."
An obvious cold look flashed across Lu Qi's face.
The next moment, Lu Er's figure also came from a distance.
The sword energy directly broke through the dark clouds above his head, and all the gloom was transferred to Lu Qi's face.
Seeing this, Xuan Yiling, who had been sitting there, frowned. Second brother is here too?
"What are you going to do in the secret realm this year?" she asked.
All the brothers are here.
Lu Qi licked his lips and said, "I'm not planning on doing anything, I just agreed to have a fight."
"Mad man." Xuan Yiling shouted.
"Who asked you to get involved?" Lu Qi spoke to her, his eyes fixed on Lu Er who had already arrived.
When Lu Er arrived, his eyes flashed across everyone and then fell on Lu Qi.
Never moved away.
To outsiders, this seems like a confrontation.
The various sects of the righteous path were quite powerful, but everyone in the world of immortal cultivation knew that the only one who could compete with the Demon Sect was the Sword Sect. The only one who could suppress the Demon Sect's unfathomable Grand Master was the Sword Immortal Cang Yun.
Before Qin Zhou could react, the casual cultivators around him couldn't wait to shout, "The Cang Yun Sword Immortal is here! He is the senior I admire the most!"
"The Cangyun Sword Immortal is here too. This year's secret realm is really grand."
"What do you think? Could it be that Elder Qianji foresaw that this secret realm would be extraordinary? Otherwise, how can we explain the Demon Sect's Grand Master and Cangyun Sword Immortal's simultaneous presence?"
Cang Yun Sword Immortal.
...Lu Er?
Qin Zhou did not look at him again, because he would not mistake his face. He was absolutely sure that the Cang Yun Sword Immortal they were talking about was undoubtedly his villager Lu Er.
After all, a few days ago... these two people who were at loggerheads were still being "loving" in the village.
Suddenly, he remembered the secret that Wen Jue had told him.
The Cang Yun Sword Immortal of the Cang Yun Sword Sect had an affair with the Demon Sect's Supreme Sect Master in his early years.
Qin Zhou's gaze fell on Lu Xiao's face between the two of them.
Then he is...
"Dad." Lu Xiao stood between the two of them and suddenly shouted.
If there is anyone who is not afraid of these two, he is one and Fairy Xuanji is one.
Lu Er looked at Lu Xiao without saying anything, then looked at Lu Qi.
"What are you shouting about? Does it reveal you?" Lu Qi glanced at his son, thinking that he didn't know who the brat was shouting.
Lu Xiao smiled and pulled Lu Qi over: "Dad, calm down, it's not time to fight now."
No one noticed the strange atmosphere between the three people.
After all, no one could tell anything from Lu Er's dead face. And Lu Qi's expression of wanting to eat him up was hostile to anyone.
Lu Xiao's tone sounded normal, but there was always a hint of a smiling tiger, as if he was advising his father to be patient first, and then kill all the righteous people after entering the secret realm.
Perhaps the only ones who know the truth are Xuan Yiling and Qin Zhou.
Xuan Yiling didn't have too many thoughts. Now that her brothers had all arrived, she began to regret getting involved in this secret realm.
Only Qin Zhou lowered his eyes.
Even someone as calm as Qin Zhou would need some time to digest this huge amount of information.
Lu Er is the forefather of the Cang Yun Sword Sect and the legendary Cang Yun Sword Immortal.
Lu Qi is the founder of the Demon Sect and the Demon Sect's Supreme Leader.
And they have a son.
The son was probably born after one of them took the fertility pill he made. Right in front of him was the Demon Sect leader Lu Xiao, who had grown into a young man.
Not only that, the unpleasantness that Lu Er and Lu Qi showed when they were getting along in the village a few days ago was not because of a quarrel and estrangement between the two, but... their positions had long been hostile.
The once loving couple turned into enemies who were ready to fight whenever they met.
Qin Zhou felt his head was a little tired.
The game save file showed that I had been running for nine thousand years. When I came back to my senses, all the villagers had become legendary bosses.
What about Lu Yi?
He no longer dared to think about what role Lu Yi should play in this world of immortal cultivation.
…
At the same time, without Qin Zhou's knowledge, a summoning button in the villager character list was quietly lighting up.
