"Where did she go?" Zu An's heart skipped a beat, and he asked hurriedly.
Qiu Honglei shook her head slightly: "I didn't know at the time either. Later, the Yin Yang Venerable came after hearing the news. He originally wanted to subdue me, but he didn't expect that I had learned the Heaven and Earth Sacrifice Dance. He realized the danger and hurriedly told me to stop and chose to negotiate with me."
Zu An's heart stirred. The Heaven and Earth Sacrifice Dance was the first of the seven skills of the Immortal Lord Baopu, possessing the unpredictable ability to communicate with heaven and earth. Fortunately, Hong Lei obtained this for self-defense in the last secret realm, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable. You must know that the four Venerables of the Demonic Sect are all figures on par with Yun Jianyue, and they all have the ability of a Grandmaster.
“Originally, I didn’t want to talk to him, but I didn’t expect him to take out a token of my master’s identity and say that my master was in their hands. I was worried that something might happen to my master, so I decided to talk to them.”
"Yue... cough cough, your master has fallen into their hands?" Zu An's expression changed slightly.
Qiu Honglei shook her head slightly: "It shouldn't be. With Master's abilities, the Yin Yang Venerable doesn't have that kind of skill. Based on my later investigation and speculation, Master should be trapped somewhere by them. They can't catch Master for the time being, but Master can't escape either."
Zuan couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, "You actually found so much information!"
Qiu Honglei spread out her delicate hand, and a yellow talisman radiating red light floated quietly in the air: "Have you forgotten the red talisman you gave me last time? I secretly dealt with a few people who were monitoring me and used their souls as a sacrifice to activate this red talisman. I wanted to find my master's location, but it seems that the place was covered by something, so I couldn't find the exact location. But the only thing I can be sure of is that she is still within the main altar area."
"So you agreed to marry Hendrik Willem Van Loon in hopes of finding out your master's whereabouts from them?" Zu An asked with a stern face.
Qiu Honglei cupped his face with a smile: "Oh my, you look so cute when you're jealous."
Zuan snorted in dissatisfaction.
At this moment, Qiu Honglei explained, "Don't worry, I would never really marry that guy. I just want to keep them calm for now and use this time to investigate more information. Those things just now were what I found out during this period."
Zu An's expression softened: "With your master's cultivation level, that Yin Yang Venerable could never be her match. Who else was involved?"
He knew Yun Jianyue's cultivation level all too well. With her current combat power, she could even protect herself against an Earth Immortal. Given time, becoming an Earth Immortal was just around the corner.
The Yin-Yang Venerable was merely a Grandmaster; how could he possibly deal with her?
“That’s right, he’s definitely not the only one,” Qiu Honglei said with a hint of coldness in her eyes. “If I’m not mistaken, there’s also Vice Master Lu Sanyuan.”
“Lu Sanyuan?” Zu An’s heart stirred. There were two most famous people in the Demonic Sect: one was Yun Jianyue, the leader of the Demonic Sect, and the other was Lu Sanyuan, the leader of the “Righteous Army.”
To some extent, the imperial court was more wary of Lu Sanyuan.
After all, over the years he led 100,000 rebel troops, roaming everywhere, and who knows how many government troops he had defeated in his suppression campaigns.
Qiu Honglei nodded: "Lu Sanyuan is the vice leader and also the sect leader of the Ruthless Path. His status in the sect has always been extraordinary. Originally, Master didn't mind coexisting peacefully with him, and even actively cooperated and supported the righteous army under his command."
"As a result, last time in Zishan, Master suddenly discovered that Lu Sanyuan led a large army to cooperate with other forces to deal with Zhao Hao. As the leader of the sect, she didn't know anything about it beforehand. She originally came back this time intending to investigate this matter thoroughly, but she didn't expect that the man surnamed Lu would strike first."
"I just didn't expect that even the Yin Yang Lord would be won over by him. You know, the Yin Yang Dao has always been on good terms with our Heavenly Demon Sect."
Zu An's expression was strange: "I'm afraid it's not just the Yin Yang Dao. I see that they've won over quite a few people within your Heavenly Demon Sect, like that Elder Xi."
He then recounted what he had just discovered about Pan Qiaoqiao and Elder Xi.
Qiu Honglei's expression changed: "Pan Qiaoqiao has always been jealous of me. She thinks she is no worse than me in any way, but she can't become a saintess. It's just because her master is biased. I never thought she would dare to betray the Heavenly Demon Sect."
Her mind raced, and she gradually realized: "It must be because my master has been restraining the people of the Yin-Yang Path all these years, forbidding them from forcibly taking innocent women, and at the same time imposing various restrictions on the rules of the Heavenly Demon Sect. This has led to their dissatisfaction, which is why Lu Sanyuan was able to pull them away so easily."
Zuan stood up and said, "Now that we know who the culprit is, let's go and settle the score with them."
Qiu Honglei hurriedly grabbed him: "No, we don't know the specific situation of Master yet. If they become desperate and something happens to Master, it will be troublesome."
