As soon as he finished speaking, Guang He raised his leg and kicked Lu Xuanji hard without saying a word. With such a huge force, Lu Xuanji was kicked far away and hit directly on the stable railing of the formation. He raised his head and spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Who was it that spoke to me yesterday, guaranteeing that there was nothing wrong with the monks from that mountain sect?"
Guanghe strode to the railing, looked down at Lu Xuanji who was coughing up blood, and murderous intent reappeared in his eyes.
"Palace Master, it is said that fortune and misfortune go hand in hand."
Lu Xuanji bit his teeth hard, stifling a cough and said, "I was panicked and confused for a moment, so I chose to conceal it. However, this matter has no impact on the plan, and it is even a major discovery!
That Mountain Sect cultivator might be the mysterious individual we're looking for. If Lin Qingfeng can lead him to the secret realm of the Medicine Garden and capture him alive, it would be a great achievement.
"And Palace Master, don't forget that the Mountain Sect monk has two children with him. As long as we can lure the Mountain Sect monk away, even if we can't catch him, catching the two children will guarantee us credit and we won't be punished by the Palace."
Every word Lu Xuanji said in his defense was not without reason.
Guang He listened to it, his anger subsided a little, and he snorted coldly with a flick of his sleeve: "Waste! If your plan didn't sound useful, I would have destroyed you today.
Immediately send a message to Lin Fengqing and tell him that as long as he succeeds in this matter, even if the Medicine Garden Secret Realm fails, he will still be able to enter my Pantheon and be granted the secret elixir of longevity."
Lu Xuanji leaned on the railing and struggled to stand up, nodding repeatedly and saying, "I'll do it right away."
"Also, I will personally capture those two little immortal seedlings."
Guang He gave a warning look, "Once you have dealt with Lin Fengqing, go to the Medicine Garden Secret Realm to help, and do not interfere in the affairs of the Mountain Gate anymore."
Lu Xuanji's face was bitter, "I understand."
"Now that you understand, why don't you get out of here?"
Guanghe flicked his sleeves, scaring Lu Xuanji so much that he turned around and left.
Guang He looked at his fleeing back, and a hint of joy gradually appeared on his cold face.
He was finally released from the Palace of Remnant Souls, but his soul was not yet complete. If he wanted to fully recover and secure his position as the Tenth Palace Master, he could only find a way to reward him for his merits.
Over the past hundred years, their plans to secretly harm geniuses and evildoers have been repeatedly foiled by a group of mysterious people. The palace has tried several times to capture them but failed, and instead plotted against them, causing considerable losses.
Therefore, a bounty has already been issued. Any clues leading to this mysterious individual will be rewarded handsomely!
It was precisely because of this that he had been secretly spreading rumors about the Red Fruit from the very beginning to attract mysterious people to join the game.
Now it seems that this strategy was successful.
Not only was the other party attracted here, but he also arrogantly brought the two juniors to his side to train them. Now all he needs to do is lure the tiger away from the mountain...
Guang He licked his lips, greed flashing in his eyes.
He was reluctant to share this great achievement that was already certain to be accomplished with Lu Xuanji.
…
Lu Xuanji walked slowly along the path at the mountain gate, his expression calm and composed, without any trace of the panic he had just felt when facing Guanghe.
He raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, looked at his bloody hands, and casually wiped them on the crow's feathers on his shoulder.
The crow immediately jumped up with a scream, flapping its wings back and forth on its shoulders in disgust.
"Quack! My feathers!"
Lu Xuanji laughed at what he saw. "My blood is so hard for ordinary people to get, and you still despise it?"
The crow pecked the corner of Lu Xuanji's mouth lightly, then spat it out.
"Fake blood, dirty!"
Lu Xuanji laughed, "Of course it's fake blood. How could Guang He make me vomit blood and get hurt?"
The crow's black feathers shone with light, and the blood beads faded away. Finally, it calmed down, regained its footing, and asked in a hoarse voice:
"Are we really going to the secret realm and ignoring this place?"
"What else?"
Lu Xuanji looked helpless. "We've done what we should do. Whether it will be a blessing or a curse next depends on Guanghe's luck. We should get away from this place as soon as possible to avoid getting into trouble."
"Get away and watch the show?"
The crow flapped its wings excitedly and said, "That's right. Let's go now."
"No rush."
Lu Xuanji casually took out a wooden mask and smiled meaningfully: "Add more fuel to the fire."
…
When Li Wansheng got up early in the morning and opened the door, he saw a middle-aged monk sleeping soundly against the roots of a tree in the yard.
Seeing the sallow face of the middle-aged monk, Li Wansheng was stunned.
Isn’t this the monk from the Mountain Sect who came here yesterday to promote the immortal seedlings? Why is he back again?
"Fellow Daoist..."
He had just opened his mouth when he saw the middle-aged monk straighten up and yawn. He said lazily, "It's you, Junior Brother Li. I've been working hard all night and I'm exhausted. Do you have any tea?"
"have."
Li Wansheng responded subconsciously, and then his face darkened, "Fellow Daoist..."
Bang!
The gate of the courtyard was suddenly kicked open. Li Wansheng turned around and saw Lin Qingfeng striding in. He was surprised and suspicious.
Why didn’t Senior Brother Lin go to the secret realm of the medicine garden?
While he was shocked, he suddenly heard a chuckle in his ear.
"It seems that this tea will not be drinkable for a while."
