Since then, Witch Jiang has never come to visit, which makes Wei Dongliu miss her a little.
I have a mysterious character, so I need someone to refresh my synchronization value...
Not only Wei Dongliu missed her, Wang Jun also missed his future master's wife. He just didn't dare to mention it in front of Wei Dongliu. However, he complained to Guo Jin several times in private, saying that it must be the master who pissed off his master's wife and drove her away.
On this day, Jiang Li'an suddenly visited again and brought a message.
"Assist the Donghuang Sect?" Wei Dongliu asked in surprise.
"That's right." Witch Jiang said with a smile, "Other Mortal Dao cultivators have been communicating with each other for many days and have already received the news. Why does Fellow Daoist Wei still need me, an outposted cultivator, to tip him off?"
"Ahem." Wei Dongliu was a little embarrassed.
This identity was used to lurk inside the Demon Cult and gather intelligence, but in the end, he was not as well-informed as Jiang Li'an...
Seeing that Wei Dongliu didn't say anything, Jiang Li'an didn't continue to pester him, but just continued:
"Every winter, when the miasma in the Shiwan Mountains dissipates, the Shushan barbarians will go south to plunder and rob."
"The Donghuang Dao asks us for help every year, but they are not from the Jiejiao sect and are unwilling to offer a suitable price, so no one cares about them. Only the madman from the Shura Dao is willing to help."
"This year is different. Firstly, Shushan suffered a great loss of strength after the previous riot in the Locking Demon Tower. Secondly, Donghuang Dao is willing to open up the Hundred Thousand Mountains as a reward. Therefore, we have made an agreement with Donghuang Dao to ambush Shushan this time."
"I see." Wei Dongliu nodded. "Wouldn't it be better for Donghuang Dao to make up their mind earlier? Why did they have to wait until they were suppressed and beaten by Shushan for so many years before they reluctantly gave up their territory?"
"It is said that the founder of the Donghuang Dao was once a beast slave of the Beast Taming Dao, and was not even an outer disciple." Jiang Li'an covered his mouth and laughed, "If the founder is like this, how can we expect the descendants to have any strategic vision?"
"In the final analysis, the ones that truly support the Demon Sect today are nothing more than the Heavenly Demon Sect, the Yin Ghost Sect, and the Mortal Sect."
Wei Dongliu listened calmly, sneering in his heart.
If we really want to talk about the pillars of the Demonic Cult, there are actually only the Heavenly Demonic Sect and the Yin Ghost Sect.
As for the Mortal Dao, as far as Wei Dongliu knew, there were indeed a few powerful giants, but the whole was a mess. They looked bloated and huge, but were actually weak, so it was better not to mention them.
"In that case," he asked without comment, "Do I need to report to the sect if I want to participate in the hunting in the Shiwan Mountains?"
"Report?" Witch Jiang chuckled, "Of course not. Have you ever heard that joke, Brother Wei?"
"What's the joke?"
"Joining the Fansheng Dao, there are only two things you need to deal with the sect for." Jiang Li'an smiled and blinked, "One is to establish a sect, and the other is to change the station."
Wei Dongliu: ...
So your Fanshengdao is the Civil Affairs Bureau, right? They only show up when you need to collect money and handle formalities!
"Let's not talk about this for now. I wonder if Brother Wei is willing to join forces with others?" Jiang Li'an said with a smile on his face.
"Join hands with others? Didn't they join hands with you?" Wei Dongliu was slightly startled when he heard this, and then he realized, "You also called others, right?"
"Since this is an ambush, of course we must make the most of our advantages." Jiang Li'an was guessed right by him, his expression unchanged, "A one-on-one fight is something only the reckless men of Shushan would pursue."
"Who is traveling with you?" Wei Dongliu asked for confirmation.
"Fellow Daoist Wei dealt with Wen Yang, the judge of the Yin Gui Dao, last time." Jiang Li'an said with a smile, "In addition, there are Gu Lie of the Shura Dao and Long Qi of the Donghuang Dao. They are all very easy to talk to."
Very easy to talk to... Wei Dongliu immediately understood that it meant that the attitude was rather bad.
"It doesn't matter." He said calmly, "One more or one less, it doesn't matter."
Jiang Li'an was a little surprised and started muttering to himself.
Although Fellow Daoist Wei doesn't like socializing, he does act very arrogantly... No, judging from various signs in the past, this guy is probably confident in his own strength and really doesn't care.
Well, Wen Yang is not easily tricked, but Gu Lie gets carried away once provoked. It is a good opportunity to use that young man to test the strength of Fellow Daoist Wei.
"In that case, Brother Wei, please come with me." She said with a smile, "Let's rush to Southern Xinjiang first, and then meet up with the three fellow Daoists."
Wei Dongliu called Guo Jin and Wang Xun and said:
"I have to go out on business in the next few days. You can practice here on your own. I will not accept any visitors."
"If someone comes without notice, activate the sect's protective formation. Wang Jun, have you memorized the formation formulas I taught you before?"
"Master, I will remember it." Wang Jun said obediently.
Jiang Li'an was listening nearby, feeling extremely curious.
A sect-protecting formation? If it was really a formation of that level, it would require a cultivator who specialized in formations to set it up. It was not something that an amateur could do.
Could it be that they were just being mysterious by calling the small formation a "big formation"?
Wei Dongliu naturally would not explain to her. As for Guo Jin and Wang Quan, due to their limited vision, they could not see the exquisiteness and complexity of the "Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation", so they just agreed honestly.
After leaving Shiping Mountain, Jiang Li'an finally found an opportunity and asked casually:
"Is Fellow Daoist Wei's sect protection formation reliable? If not, I can let the two disciples stay in my Biyan Palace temporarily."
"No need." Wei Dongliu waved his hand and said.
Jiang Li'an couldn't tell his attitude, and seeing that he refused to say more, he could only mutter to himself, and the synchronization value of his mysterious personality increased sharply.
The two men flew south on swords and arrived at Dali City in southern Xinjiang.
Perhaps because the day when the miasma of the Ten Thousand Mountains would dissipate was approaching, there were many more monks in the city.
Some of them openly carry sword cases on their backs, and you can tell at a glance that they are Shushan sword masters; others have tattoos on their faces, wield snakes and play with poisonous insects, and they don't look like they are from famous and upright families.
The two sides maintained a very tacit peace and kept to themselves, not because they could not confirm their identities, but because there was no dispute of interest for the time being and there was no need for conflict.
Wei Dongliu followed Jiang Li'an to a restaurant in the city. When they went up to the second floor, they saw Wen Yang and two monks sitting together drinking.
Wen Yang was still dressed extremely gorgeously, with gorgeous and complicated clothes and her long hair fixed with a hairpin. As long as she didn't speak, she would be a perfect beauty.
The other two monks were an old man and a child.
The old man was dressed like a foreign monk, with a bald head and no scars on his forehead. He had large earlobes with earrings and looked around fiercely.
The child was dressed like a girl, with her hair tied into two pigtails and an innocent expression... However, how could she be a good person if she could sit at the same table with Wen Yang and the old foreign monk?
Jiang Li'an went over to greet them with a smile, and then introduced them to everyone:
"This is Brother Wei Dongliu from the Fansheng Dao. He is very powerful. I can guarantee that he will join us and act together this time."
"Fellow Daoist Wei is indeed trustworthy." Wen Yang said lazily, holding the wine glass with his slender fingers.
The two men vouched at the same time, and the old monk and the little girl looked over.
It's just that the old monk's eyes were full of hostility, while the girl was just looking at him curiously - at least on the surface.
