Chapter 294 Fraud
The master of Wuji Palace is an old man with a head full of white hair and an indescribable sense of vicissitudes on his face.
He is tall, but his back is a little bent.
"Buddhist cultivator..." The Wuji Palace Master cast his eyes on Ning Ruoxi as sharp as an eagle.
Most people would not dare to look directly at the might of the Wuji Palace Master, but Ning Ruoxi is different. She can remain calm even when facing a catastrophe.
She wouldn't even frown even if she died.
"Are you a Buddhist practitioner?" The master of Wuji Palace asked Ning Ruoxi bluntly.
Ning Ruoxi would naturally not admit it at this juncture, "No, I am practicing the way of the sword, the Sword Master can testify for me, and the Sword Master even wants to take me as his disciple."
The Wuji Palace Master raised his eyebrows and said, "You are quite courageous. You know how to use the Sword Master to suppress me."
"Then have you taken the Sword Master as your master?"
"No."
"Since you are not the Sword Master's disciple, it doesn't matter if I kill you. The relationship between Wuji Palace and Jian Pavilion has always been good. The Sword Master will never cause trouble to me because of an unrelated dead person."
Ning Ruoxi knew that what the Wuji Palace Master said made sense. The Sword Master just admired her, but it was not to the point where he had to have her as his disciple.
"Senior, I am still the seed disciple of the Seventh Palace. If you kill me by mistake, the Palace Master will definitely cause trouble for your Wuji Palace."
The master of Wuji Palace had a blank expression on his face. "I'm not someone who can be frightened. Would the master of the Seventh Palace attack my Wuji Palace just for you?"
"That's hard to say, senior, please don't be too confident." Ning Ruoxi continued.
"The Palace Master has high expectations of me. As expected, I will be the designated Palace Master of the Seventh Palace."
Anyway, these people don’t know the inside story of the Immortal Temple, so Ning Ruoxi just needs to exaggerate.
"You, the next Palace Master?" The expression of the Palace Master of Wuji Palace finally changed, but he didn't quite believe what Ning Ruoxi said.
"That's right. As for me, I have a very high talent in swordsmanship. The Sword Master once said that my future achievements would not be inferior to his. After the Hall Master knew about it, he designated me as the next Hall Master of the Seventh Hall. That's why I didn't take the Sword Master as my master."
"Although the Sword Master is strong, he is only one person strong! The Immortal God Palace is different. As long as they are the Palace Masters, everyone is strong. There is also the strongest Grand Palace Master, who is the number one person in the Immortal World!"
"Senior, have you heard about the loss of the Demon Suppression Pass in the Immortal Realm and the invasion of the demons? My Immortal God Palace dispatched a hundred peak Immortal Emperor Realm powerhouses to suppress the demons and re-establish a line of defense in front of the Demon Suppression Pass!"
Ning Ruoxi never thought that one day she would take advantage of the power of the Immortal Temple to deceive others.
"One hundred peak Immortal Emperors?" The Wuji Palace Master looked at the black-robed man beside him, "Is the news she said true?"
The black-robed man nodded and said, "She is right. I haven't had time to report this to you, Palace Master."
The master of Wuji Palace was not panicked. He said to Ning Ruoxi, "Let's make a bet. Since you think the Immortal God Palace will come to rescue you."
"Then how many Immortal Emperors do you think will come? Or will it be only your Palace Master who will come to save you in the end?"
The Lord of Wuji Palace felt that Ning Ruoxi was not as important as the safety of the fairyland, and it was impossible for the Palace of Immortal Gods to send multiple peak Immortal Emperor realm masters to rescue her.
At best, the people who came were invited by Fu Liyang using his connections.
Ning Ruoxi could only change the subject and said, "Senior, are you going to listen to the words of someone whose origin is unknown? He might want to kill someone with a borrowed knife and want Wuji Palace to offend Xianshen Palace!"
"I saw with my own eyes that you are a Buddhist practitioner. Don't try to make excuses anymore!" Zhu Yan responded.
The head of Wuji Palace asked Zhu Yan, "You said you saw it with your own eyes, so tell me when and where you saw it?"
Zhu Yan spilled out the words he had prepared, "I saw her fighting with someone in the Tianyuan area. She used Buddhist Dharma. Oh, yes, she is also a living Buddha."
Upon hearing this, the Lord of Wuji Palace looked at Ning Ruoxi again, as if he wanted to see through her.
"Why do you believe what he said but not what I said? I have only been to the Sword Pavilion since I came to the Tianyuan Domain, and I have never fought with anyone. But in the Chenxiang Domain, I fought with the Third Saint Son of the Guiyuan Holy Land."
"Guiyuan Holy Land? Do you mean that this person is from Guiyuan Holy Land?" The Lord of Wuji Palace was not making subjective assumptions. He was really carefully analyzing every word that Ning Ruoxi and Zhu Yan said.
"That's for sure. I defeated the Third Saint Son and used the Tianhuang Pool of Guiyuan Holy Land. Someone in Guiyuan Holy Land holds a grudge against me, so they want to use Wuji Palace to get rid of me. This way, Guiyuan Holy Land will not offend Xianshen Palace."
Ning Ruoxi sneered and looked at Zhu Yan, "What a trick to kill with a borrowed knife. You wrongly accuse me of being a Buddhist cultivator by claiming to be a casual cultivator."
Zhu Yan's face looked very ugly. When he was about to refute again, the master of Wuji Palace spoke again, "But why did Guiyuan Holy Land want to get rid of you without any other means, but had to come to Wuji Palace and say that you are a Buddhist practitioner?"
"You two are both telling the truth, so you are very confident! But your truths also conceal things that are disadvantageous to you."
"You are not a casual cultivator, but a person from Guiyuan Holy Land. And you are not only a sword cultivator but also a Buddhist cultivator."
Zhu Yan was very frightened. The Lord of Wuji Palace had seen through the two of them after these two interactions.
“Someone, take him away and search his soul. He is just a casual cultivator anyway, so if he dies, he dies. If he was someone from Guiyuan Holy Land, I might be a little afraid of him.” The Lord of Wuji Palace ordered the black-robed man beside him.
The man in black robe walked towards Zhu Yan.
Zhu Yan's face changed. How did things develop completely differently from what he had imagined? Why did they have to search his soul?
Seeing that the black-robed man's hand had already grabbed him, Zhu Yan became extremely panicked. His cultivation was sealed and he could only be at the mercy of others.
"Palace Master! I am from the Saint Alliance of Guiyuan Holy Land. Everything I said is true. She is a Buddhist practitioner!" Zhu Yan gritted his teeth and revealed his identity. He did not want to be dragged away for a soul search.
The Lord of Wuji Palace looked at Zhu Yan with amusement.
Zhu Yan suddenly realized that the Lord of Wuji Palace might not care whether he was from Guiyuan Holy Land or not, but wanted to trick him into telling the truth by searching his soul.
"Guiyuan Holy Land... this trick of using a knife to kill someone is really good. Take him down, search his soul, and then send him to the slave farm."
It is even more impossible for the Lord of Wuji Palace to let Zhu Yan go. No one would be able to bear this if they knew they were being used.
"No, Palace Master, please spare me! Palace Master, please spare me!" Zhu Yan was panicked. He had never expected that the Palace Master of Wuji Palace would be so suspicious and anxious.
Since they were going to search Zhu Yan's soul, the Wuji Hall Master closed his eyes and rested. He did not ask Ning Ruoxi any more questions, so that he would not have to distinguish which words were true and which were false.
A quarter of an hour later, the black-robed man came back. He saluted the master of Wuji Palace and said, "Master, that man is from the Saint Alliance of Guiyuan Holy Land. This woman... is indeed a living Buddha."
