When the people around saw the divine fire appear, they immediately knelt down and worshiped.
Wei Xiyin held up the flame and sighed, "The world is filled with sin. Qiongqi is causing chaos. My Qilin Sect has received the mandate of heaven to help the people and apprehend Qiongqi. You are so foolish and ignorant that you dare to neglect me like this. There must be remnants of Qiongqi among you..."
The people knelt on the ground and repeatedly apologized.
They didn't know the difference between the Qilin Sect and the Shifang Sect, they only knew that they couldn't provoke the wrath of heaven again.
Qin Shan lowered his head very low, and the expression on his face was really wonderful.
No one can match the girl's ability to deceive people.
I'm afraid that the Ten Directions Religion is far inferior.
The commotion outside alarmed Taoist Qifang. He had heard that the Qilin Sect could also summon the sacred fire, and the people were all kneeling in worship. He, who had just looked indifferent and wanted to drive people away, finally could not sit still anymore.
These people were the believers he had recruited with great difficulty. If they were instigated to rebel, all his mission would be in vain.
He shouted angrily: "Go and drive those people away!"
"Taoist, they didn't come in. Outside the village, the Qilin Cult members were saying in front of their followers that there were remnants of Qiongqi in the village..."
Taoist Qifang waved his hand impatiently and said, "Then kill them all!" With so many people around, are they really afraid of just a few dozen people outside?
The person who answered looked hesitant. "But, they can also summon the divine fire, and they are currently preaching outside. If we take action in front of the believers, I'm afraid they will incite the people to revolt..."
They had gathered believers with great difficulty, but now there were no living people outside, and survivors were hard to find. They had originally planned to wait until they had dealt with the children of the aristocratic families before taking the believers back...
Taoist Qifang lowered his head and thought when he heard this, and he really couldn't take action in front of his believers.
"Please invite him in. I want to see who he is."
"yes."
The pretty boy was not there, and a man in black holding a machete was standing in the room.
He stared outside with sharp eyes and said calmly, "I'm afraid the people who came here don't have good intentions. Is the altar ready?"
"Don't worry, everything will be completed within three days to avoid any unnecessary complications."
It was difficult to subdue those ignorant people. Although they claimed that the imprisoned children of noble families were the source of evil, it was impossible to kill them in front of them.
You have to know that there are women and children in there. Being too cruel would scare people. So Taoist Qifang found an excuse for sacrifice and planned to get rid of all the prisoners in the name of offering sacrifice to heaven.
After dealing with them, he took the believers back.
"Where's the stuff? The head of the family is already asking if you got it."
Taoist Qifang was about to reply when he saw someone coming in.
The person leading the way was a new believer of the Ten Directions Religion. Not long ago, he was just an ordinary villager. Seeing that the woman in front of him also had the same abilities as the Seven Directions Taoist, he did not dare to be negligent at all and nodded and bowed as he led the way.
The group of people were dressed in strange clothes and had three flame shapes on their eyebrows, which looked very weird.
Taoist Qifang sat in the room and said with an unhappy look on his face: "So you are all from the same sect. It's a pleasure to meet you."
Wei Xiyin glanced at the two people in the room calmly, hummed lightly, and ignored him with an extremely arrogant attitude, and went straight to find a place to sit down.
Qin Shan was wondering whether he should speak up to negotiate.
The guard beside him shouted, "Who are you? You don't even bow to our leader!"
Qin Shan: “…” He is not good at speaking. The twenty guards selected this time are all smart people, but who knew that each of them is too smart.
Wei Xiyin was very satisfied with this.
Taoist Qifang's face stiffened slightly, and he was almost unable to suppress his anger.
These people were so arrogant that they actually dared to speak to him like that!
He wanted to ask someone to arrest all these people, but the man with the scimitar beside him stopped him with a look.
Taoist Qifang took a long time to catch his breath and said stiffly, "It is an honor for you to stay in our village. However, our temple is small and we generally do not accept outsiders. I am afraid that we will not be able to provide adequate hospitality. Please rest well and leave as soon as possible."
His original intention was to ask the person to leave immediately.
Wei Xiyin looked at the layout of the house with disdain, but said, "It is indeed an honor for you. This shabby place is not worthy of my status. After I have a good rest, I will leave tomorrow morning."
The guard nodded in agreement very enthusiastically.
Taoist Qifang's face flushed red, and he was afraid of being angry to death on the spot. He didn't want to say another word. He was even too angry to refuse her request for accommodation. His head was buzzing, and he quickly asked someone to take them downstairs to settle them down.
Wei Xiyin stood up leisurely and followed the person leading the way down to settle down as if no one was around.
As soon as the others left, Taoist Qifang immediately cursed, "Where did this woman come from?! She's so arrogant and domineering, she looks down on everyone!"
After cursing, he looked at the man with the machete and asked, "Why don't you let me capture him and kill him?"
The man with the scimitar stared at him as if he were an idiot. "Those people just showed off their skills in front of the people, and you killed them the next second. Just because the people are ignorant doesn't mean they can't think. If you want to take action, you should wait until night."
He's obviously here to cause trouble.
Since you refuse to leave, don't blame them for being rude.
The man leading the way was the one who had just presided over the prayer at the village entrance. He took Wei Xiyin and the others to a remote house at the end of the village and left without saying anything.
The environment was really not good. There was nothing in the room except a bare bed and a set of tattered tables and chairs.
Of course, the show had to be done in full, and soon the guards started coming in and out looking for people and asking for things.
Sometimes he asked for hot water, sometimes he asked for clean bedding, and he was picky about the house. Everything he said and did was unworthy of their status as the leader.
The noise was so loud that it even alarmed the people outside the room where they were imprisoned.
The villagers were ordered around by them.
Taoist Qifang heard the noise and endured it again and again. He decided to let them jump around for a while and see if they were still alive and capable of being arrogant at night.
It was not until after noon that the house was fully furnished.
Wei Xiyin closed the door and left several guards guarding the door.
"Girl, the place where people are being held is in the three village houses in the northeast corner. Those guarding there are all from the Ten Directions Sect." Sun Qian said immediately when he saw that there were no outsiders.
"We don't know what's going on over there. When we first lived here, the people from the Ten Directions Sect came and wouldn't let us go."
Wei Xiyin's expression changed again after she entered the room. She asked calmly, "Why didn't you kill him immediately after you caught him? Wouldn't it be a nightmare if you kept him locked up?"
Food is precious now, and we have to feed them after they are captured. What on earth do these people from the Ten Directions Sect want to do?
Sun Qian replied awkwardly: "This...we don't know."
The guard at the side carefully took out five tightly sealed small boxes from his bag and placed them on the table.
The box was very small, only as big as a pocket, filled with hay, and five pieces of gunpowder lay quietly inside.
It was the first time that Wei Xiyin saw the true appearance of gunpowder.
Isn't this a 'bomb'?
How did Chu Yu get it done?
