After the old locust tree fell into an eerie stillness.
Jian Zhongyu looked at Yan Jiu as if she were a rare and exotic object. She could neither see the spirit of the locust tree demon nor hear its words, but she could clearly hear Yan Jiu's words.
Yan Jiu seemed different from other people in the Xuanmen sect; she didn't start fighting at the slightest disagreement.
A thought suddenly popped into Jian Zhongyu's mind.
If Yan Jiu can have good intentions towards the old locust tree, then he will surely be able to have good intentions towards other demons as well.
Just then.
Yan Jiu suddenly clasped his hands together.
She stood atop the tree canopy.
As he chanted, the black robes billowed behind him, appearing as if plated with gold in the dim light.
The spirits under the locust tree, under Yan Jiu's guidance, entered the underworld and went to the place they were meant to go.
The weather is getting colder.
But Jian Zhongyu did not feel the cold.
She was warmed by Yan Jiu's actions.
Jian Zhongyu firmly believes that Yan Jiu must be a good person, and perhaps the kind of person who can seek justice for her parents.
She no longer needed to rely on appeasing or awakening the old locust tree to achieve her goal of showing the Xuanmen that there are good demons among demons.
Until the last spirit enters the underworld.
Jian Zhongyu was about to approach the old locust tree.
Several powerful auras appeared inside the villa.
moment.
The spacious villa was unusually crowded.
Make sure you can see who it is.
Jian Zhongyu's heart sank.
Nowadays, the Xuanmen sect is controlled by five major families. Apart from the reclusive Elder Hui, the sect has very little say.
In order to appease the sentiments of some sects.
The Xuanmen sect has established a special ranking system.
All those ranked in the top ten, regardless of their background, have the opportunity to run for deacon elder. There are two types of deacons elder: those outside are generally called deacons, while those inside are called enforcers.
When Jian Da saw that the elders of the Xuanmen sect had actually arrived, he was as proud as if he had finally found someone to back him up.
He quickly got up from the ground.
Jian Da pointed to Jian Zhongyu and Yan Jiu in turn: "Reporting to the elder, our Jian family has been ordered to investigate Jian Yang and his wife’s daughter, Jian Zhongyu. We have discovered that she and this person are in cahoots and colluding with demons. We hope that the elder in charge can help our Jian family to bring the two to justice on the spot."
The elder deacon's eyes flickered.
When the light fell on Yan Jiu's face, she froze for a moment.
He then revealed a wildly arrogant and lawless smile.
He was a member of the Yun family, who got on the list by spending money and became a steward elder by having powerful connections.
The Yun family has always adhered to the practice of dual cultivation.
Putting aside Yan Jiu's physique, her looks are definitely a plus, making her an excellent vessel for absorbing nourishment.
With just over twenty days until the grand competition between the Xuanmen and the Special Bureau, he was ordered to send one of the nine true magical artifacts, the peach wood sword, to the competition venue to keep watch in order to confuse others. Unexpectedly, this detour led to some unexpected gains.
Yan Jiu crossed his arms and remained silent.
The mystical sects in this world are quite lawless.
In today's society where laws are widely known, some people still try to cover up the truth and act arrogantly, showing no regard for human life.
Now you're looking at her with such filthy eyes.
Shouldn't this person be sent back for retraining?
The elder in charge revealed a lecherous grin: "How can such a beautiful and delicate woman be subject to the law so easily?"
Of the five major families in the Xuanmen sect, excluding the Lang family who didn't want to get involved, the top two are the Chen family and the Yun family.
This means that if someone is favored by the Yun family, even a furnace or cauldron can soar to great heights.
Jian Da is a member of the eldest branch of the Jian family.
He naturally didn't want Jian Zhongyu, the only surviving descendant of the third wife, to have any future.
Jian Da urged, "Elder, they've colluded with evil demons. If we don't kill them, it'll be hard to explain ourselves."
While Jian Zhongyu was gritting his teeth.
Yan Jiu smiled faintly: "Since you say so, why not let this prosperous era be as you wish?"
With her arms outstretched, she revealed her wicked nature of colluding with demons as she spoke and laughed.
The Locust Tree Demon: "..." Who is the evil demon?
Jian Zhongyu: "..." What wish?
Yan Jiu jumped down from the locust tree.
While the elder was stunned, Yan Jiu kicked him.
The elder in charge was kicked 10 meters away.
He looked at Yan Jiu blankly, not understanding why anyone would dare to attack a deacon elder of the Xuanmen sect.
Aren't you afraid of being hunted down by the Xuanmen (Taoist sect)?
He felt his reputation was damaged.
He actually took out the peach wood sword that was supposed to be escorted back to the clan from his spatial ring, hoping that Yan Jiu would back down.
Then I saw it.
A glint flashed in Yan Jiu's eyes.
Peach wood is considered the essence of wood, and is known as immortal wood or ghost-fearing wood. The most superior magical artifact is lightning-struck wood, which is the color of purple copper and has a pleasant fragrance, and can ward off evil.
The peach wood sword in front of me, about 1 meter long, was perfect and clearly a superior magical artifact.
Yan Jiu looked at the person holding the peach wood sword: "Is this the peach wood sword, one of the nine great magical artifacts?"
After obtaining the Sanqing Bell.
Yan Jiu had learned about the nine magical artifacts, and it was said that the peach wood sword was controlled by the Xuanmen (Taoist sect).
then.
She also wanted to take some time to visit her neighbors.
He picked up a sword casually.
Who knows?
The person was delivered right to my door.
This trip was definitely worth it!
The elder deacon pressed his sword to the ground.
After standing up.
He arrogantly said, "You're smart to surrender now and you'll avoid a beating!"
Yan Jiu rubbed his hands together excitedly and said, "Just when I was sleepy, this is it! How did he know I wanted to collect all nine magical artifacts to summon the dragon? I clearly didn't tell anyone."
System: [...] The host is good at everything except being a decent person.
Jian Da corrected, "Collecting all nine magical artifacts can only grant immortality."
System: [...] Is now the time to correct my host? Running away is the only right thing to do! This group is hopeless!
Yan Jiu instantly became serious.
