Pantheon, at the entrance of the Punishment Department.
Lu Xuanji, covered in blood, slowly walked out of the door.
He sighed and was about to leave when his eyes suddenly turned and fell on the ghost-faced maid at the side of the gate. His signature ingratiating smile immediately spread across his face: "Isn't this Miss Shu'er?"
"You are really lucky."
The ghost-faced maid showed disgust and snorted coldly: "Look at the blood spots on your body. You must have been punished by being thrown into the Green Snake Well?"
"Miss Shu'er has good eyesight."
Lu Xuanji praised her and walked up to the ghost-faced maid: "It's not that I'm lucky, it's just that I've been punished enough times to gain experience. I can always save half my life, right?"
"It stinks, stay away from me!"
The ghost-faced maid took a step back and said in a cold voice, "The master wants to see you, please follow me."
Lu Xuanji nodded and smiled.
A moment later, Lu Xuanji followed the ghost-faced maid to a strange stone palace.
The plaque on the palace door was very new, as if it had just been hung up not long ago, with the words "Nightmare" written on it.
Lu Xuanji glanced at the plaque and entered the hall. Seeing the heavily made-up woman lazily leaning on the throne, he knelt down without saying a word and shouted respectfully:
"Greetings to the Fifth Palace Master, Lord Nightmare Heart!"
When Yan Xin heard this address, he immediately laughed happily: "Lu Xuanji, you let me take over Yue Jiao's body, which caused me to lose a part of my consciousness, but also allowed me to get what I wanted and obtain the position of the Fifth Palace Master.
Tell me, what reward do you want? As long as it's not too excessive, I can agree to it."
Lu Xuanji raised his head and smiled modestly, "Your Excellency is too kind. I just proposed an idea, it's nothing special. If you can reward me with anything, I will be satisfied."
"oh?"
Yan Xin raised his long eyebrows, and the smile on his face became more and more intense. "Everyone says that you, Lu Xuanji, are a jinx. Wherever you go, your colleagues die. But to me, you are a lucky guy."
As she spoke, she thought for a moment and threw out a storage ring. "The resources in here are enough for you to cultivate to the late stage of out-of-body cultivation."
Lu Xuanji's face lit up with joy as he quickly took the ring and said, "Thank you, Palace Master!"
"Um."
Yan Xin waved his sleeves, changed his posture, and said slowly: "The Second Palace Master ordered me to continue tracking the whereabouts of the fourth divine beast. What are your thoughts?"
Lu Xuanji's expression tightened slightly. "I think the Rift Demon Valley is a lesson for you. Your Excellency must not get involved in this matter."
Yan Xin's beautiful eyes narrowed immediately, "Do you think so too?"
A trace of fear appeared on Lu Xuanji's face, and he said sincerely: "I heard that the battle in Rift Demon Valley seems to be related to the third divine beast.
Yin Bufeng and Du He were both killed there, and to this day, the perpetrators haven't been found. It's truly terrifying."
Yanxin's eyes sank slightly. As the palace master, she knew more than Lu Xuanji.
More than a thousand years ago, Yin Bufeng killed a monster from the Wanmai Sword Sect and made a great contribution. He was given the Blood Pool Method by the Holy Lord. Even if he died outside, he could be resurrected through the Blood Pool.
But now so many days have passed, and Yin Bufeng shows no signs of resurrection.
The message behind this was truly terrifying. Therefore, when the Second Palace Master ordered her to track down the whereabouts of the Fourth Divine Beast, she had already begun to back out.
Now that Lu Xuanji said so, she was even more certain that she must not get too involved, otherwise, she would probably die miserably like Yin Bufeng and Du He.
Thinking of this, Yan Xin raised her red lips and said, "In that case, I'll leave this matter to you.
After this trip, you will most likely be accused of incompetence, but you can atone for your sins by killing more geniuses from the Myriad Veins Sword Sect."
When Lu Xuanji heard this, his smile froze. "Sir, I just came out of the Punishment Department. My strength is less than half of my peak. I'm afraid I can't lead the troops there."
As soon as these words came out, the smile on Yan Xin's face instantly turned cold, "You dare to disobey orders?"
"I dare not."
Lu Xuanji's face showed fear, "I heard that the Wanmai Sword Sect has recently closed its mountain gates, and there are very few disciples walking around outside.
Although I want to share your worries, I cannot rush into the Sword Sect's mountain gate to kill people.
Therefore, I decided to go to the territory of Wuji Immortal Sect to complete the instructions given by the master.
At this point, Lu Xuanji smiled awkwardly: "By the way, I can also heal my wounds while traveling. What do you think, sir?"
Upon hearing this, Yan Xin's expression immediately eased up a lot: "Your plan is quite good. I agree. Let's set off immediately."
"I obey your command!"
…
After coming out of the Nightmare Palace, Lu Xuanji looked up at the gloomy sky in the secret realm and sighed again.
He regrets it now, very much.
call--
Black light condensed on his shoulders, and the figure of a crow quickly emerged, opening its blood-red eyes, also dejected.
"Are we going to starve?"
Lu Xuanji rolled his eyes in annoyance. "It's good that you know. If you weren't so greedy, would I have touched that Bifang and caused such a disaster?"
The crow was so anxious when he heard it, "It's obviously you who wanted to eat it!"
"Ah, none of this matters."
Lu Xuanji waved his hand and said, "Let's go quickly. The first place the Tianyi Clan will investigate is definitely the Rift Demon Valley.
Let's hurry to the Wuji Xianzong as soon as possible to find some food to fill our stomachs."
The crow looked dejected, "That's all we can do."
At this moment, it really misses the days in Dongzhou.
Ninety-nine percent of the geniuses hunted by Tianqing Pavilion ended up in its stomach, and each of them was a delicious delicacy.
Especially the leader of the Puppet Sect, Lu Xuanji.
Her fate is so delicious that it is hard to forget until now.
