Sikong Zhen smiled faintly: "Since the Taoist priest has agreed, please start the ritual immediately."
"You can't do that now. The statue of Changsheng Tianzun was broken by my evil disciple. You have to wait for me to repair the statue. Also, the efficacy of the three-leaf longevity grass does not take effect immediately after it emerges. How about this, come back in five days."
Sikong Zhen showed an unhappy look on his face: "Master, I have already said that the royal family takes this matter very seriously!"
Taoist Xuanqing blew his beard and glared, "What's the point of taking it seriously? I said five days, and it will take five days. I can't completely absorb the effect of the medicine. What if I calculate halfway and my life span is exhausted and I die!? You don't want to fail to calculate it, do you?"
"In that case, I will come again in five days. I hope the Taoist priest will keep his promise, otherwise..." Sikong Zhen did not say the rest of the words, but the threat was evident in his words.
"Oh, I know, I know. If I say five days, then it means five days."
After Sikong Zhen left, Taoist Xuanqing began to worry as he looked at the three-leaf longevity grass in the box. He was thinking about countermeasures. He certainly could not calculate the cost, because the chief of the seven deadly sins, arrogance, was the messenger of the Eternal Heavenly Lord, and lust was the evil disciple Jun Wushang. Strictly speaking, he was one of the seven deadly sins' own people.
The establishment of the seven deadly sins by the Lord of God must have been instructed by the Eternal Heavenly Lord. As the most devout believer of the Eternal Heavenly Lord, he would never betray him even if he died.
He wanted to ask Lord Sumu, the messenger of God, what to do, but Sumu had gone to the nightmare world and had not returned yet, so he could only delay time temporarily.
.......
.......
In a private residence of the Murong family.
Murong Yun was constantly smashing everything in the room. Those precious vases and porcelains, and costly artworks and statues were all thrown to the ground and smashed to pieces.
He vented for a long time, and finally sat on the sofa with a gloomy face, picked up a bottle of wine and drank it madly.
"Bitch! Bitch! A lowly bastard daughter, a whore born of a slave! How dare she!"
Bang!
The wine bottle was also smashed to pieces.
During this period, Murong Yun's life was extremely frustrating. Ever since Murong Zhuo's death, he began to actively fight for the family property. He worked very hard every day, getting up earlier than the chickens and sleeping later than the dogs. He was busy building relationships every day and didn't even have time to play with women.
But even though he tried so hard, the position of the head of the family was still getting further and further away from him, and the one who caused all this was that damn illegitimate daughter!
Murong Mengli!
Because Murong Zhuo once said that whoever can find the Golden Eye will be the next heir of the Murong family, and Murong Mengli found the Golden Eye. Although it was snatched away by Pride, she found it after all. In addition, she dared to face Pride when everyone was afraid, thus saving some face for the Murong family.
The voices that she is the heir are growing louder and louder because she occupies the dominant position.
Especially the arrogant last comment: I didn’t expect that not all the Murong family are useless, you are very courageous.
The comments from the golden strong man, especially the golden strong man who dared to risk the world's condemnation and killed the nobles in public. When his reputation for arrogance rose, Murong Mengli's reputation also rose.
There were even rumors outside that there were no men in the Murong family, and that only Murong Mengli, a woman, was carrying the banner.
A woman who faced off against the empire's greatest criminal, Arrogance, and survived a catastrophe.
The gossip news also published various chicken soup stories about Murong Mengli, such as her father's dislike for her brother's bullying and the counterattack of her illegitimate daughter.
No one is optimistic about you, but you are the most competitive.
Even more outrageous is a forbidden love where I fell in love with the person who murdered my father.
No matter how outrageous the news was, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Murong Mengli had indeed become the most favorable candidate to be the heir to the family head.
This is indeed the case. No one knows better than Murong Yun how great an advantage Murong Mengli has now.
In addition to fame, Murong Mengli also gained the support of Sikong Zhen because she had already promised part of Murong family's property to Sikong Zhen.
Whenever he thought of this, Murong Yun couldn't control his rage. This damn bitch had already started selling off the family property before she even became the head of the family. In fact, he had also approached Sikong Zhen privately and promised him some of the family property despite the pain, but the other party didn't want it at all. Later, he secretly inquired and found out that Murong Mengli's offer was ten times his!
It can be said that Murong Mengli gave away almost half of the family property in order to become the head of the family. He does not have the courage to do so.
In fact, these are not the decisive factors. No matter how famous Murong Mengli is or how much money she is willing to spend, she still has a fatal weakness, which is... she is not an extraordinary person.
Why would an ordinary person compete with a silver-level second-level transcendent like me?
But this weakness was eliminated today, because Murong Mengli's bloodline was awakened, and the Murong family's silver law [Speed of Wind Shadow] was awakened, and she became a first-level silver transcendent!
This is also the reason why Murong Yun was so angry today. He didn't understand why this damn bitch was so lucky that he awakened his bloodline at the critical moment and made up for the last shortcoming.
Murong Yun knew clearly that if nothing unexpected happened, he would be finished.
Fortunately, the accident still happened.
He sat on the sofa in silence for a long time, and finally dialed the phone in his hand.
"I agree to join you."
A hoarse laugh came from the other end of the phone: "Smart choice, if Murong Zhuo is as smart as you, he would never die like this."
After a long time, a bloody figure appeared out of thin air in front of Murong Yun's eyes. The figure became solid at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally turned into a handsome young man in a burgundy suit.
The man was holding a red wine glass in his hand, which was filled with bright red liquid and emitted a pungent smell of blood.
He looked at the gloomy Murong Yun, an evil smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he drank the blood in the cup, and a look of intoxication appeared on his pale face.
"Sure enough, virgin blood is the sweetest."
Murong Yun raised his head, his bloodshot eyes flashing with the madness of being at the end of his rope.
"Can you really help me become the head of the family?"
The man in the red suit said disdainfully: "Is your ambition to be the head of a small noble family in this small town? With our help, you should look further ahead and return to the imperial capital, the center of power of the Red Flame Empire, just like your father did!"
"Stop talking nonsense to me. Going to the imperial capital is for the future. I just want to know if I can become the head of the family!"
The contempt in the red suit man's eyes became stronger and stronger: "Join us and you will not only become the head of the family, but also gain endless life! Slowly you will understand how weak humans are. Only the vampires are the most superior race!"
Murong Yun sneered: "You vampires from the Blood Moon Empire always boast that your race is superior. If you are really superior, then why is the world's first empire the Longyuan Empire, and not you Blood Moon?"
