Chapter 342 Snow Falls All Over the City
Yin Jun looked at Li Weiyi with a smile in his eyes: "I know you have a lot of doubts in your heart! The Deputy General Zhou in front of you is a hidden person of the Yin Sect for sixty years, responsible for lurking in the court."
Li Weiyi was completely relaxed, clasped his fists and said with a smile: "Greetings, Elder Zhou!"
All the hermits in the past sixty years were elders.
The hermit who lived for the previous sixty years is called the Supreme Elder.
Zhou Bi Da forced a stiff smile, obviously he was a serious person at ordinary times.
Li Weiyi asked, "Is there a flaw in my disguise technique? How did Yin Jun know it was me?"
Yin Jun smiled at him.
Li Weiyi understood: "So, she told you?"
The person she was referring to was naturally Yao Qingxuan.
With Yinjun appearing here, Yao Qingxuan's identity is self-evident.
"She didn't dare to speak clearly. I guessed it."
Yin Jun sighed, "If you are in her position, you will be wiped out if you are not careful. You have the Death Spirit Fire in your body. And she wants to gain the trust of the top leaders of the Dao Sect. There is also a layer of confinement in her body, which is more mysterious. Everything she says and does may be sensed."
Li Weiyi finally understood that Yao Qingxuan was obviously an elder of the hidden people, but he was always cold to him and could only protect him in an obscure way.
Li Weiyi is at the Rice Education Forum and has her as his backer.
But she has no one to back her up and can only rely on herself. She is walking on thin ice and the enemies she faces are even more terrifying.
"Then isn't she in danger?" Li Weiyi was very worried.
If it weren't for Yao Qingxuan's care, he would have suffered a lot after losing the Twin Rice Sect. He would not have been much better off than Tuoba Butuo and the others, even though he was worthy of growing golden rice.
Yin Jun said, "Who is not in danger? I personally came to Nanyan Pass, which is also a huge risk. The Dao Cult has great ambitions and wants to subvert the entire Lingxiao habitat. Hiding anywhere at that time will be a dead end. If the strong do not take the initiative to shoulder responsibilities, take risks, and find a way to survive, and rely on others, everyone will eventually be ruined in selfishness."
"There's nothing I can do! In fact, she should be the Hidden Lord, and I should go to the Dao Sect. It was already decided that year... Oh..."
As he was talking, Yin Jun couldn't hold back his emotions. He paused before asking, "Where are the things?"
Li Weiyi took out the one-foot square iron box and placed it on the long table in the pavilion.
Yinjun untied the runes on the iron box, opened the lid, and a red light emanated from inside.
The first layer contains a fist-sized fruit with a strong fragrance and crystal clear appearance.
"Zhuxia Fruit is a rare treasure that can extend your life for thirty years." Li Weiyi recognized it.
Zhou Bi said: "This is the request I made to the Twin Rice Sect. With an extra thirty years of lifespan, the chances of achieving immortality will be even greater."
Yinjun didn't even look at the Zhuxia Fruit and quickly opened the second layer.
There was golden light shining inside, and there was a peanut-sized elixir of immortality, with countless scriptures floating on it.
The elixir of immortality is not the elixir of immortality, but the elixir cultivated by martial artists who have reached the realm of immortality.
The fruit of the Tao is the golden elixir, which is the state of immortality.
The Hidden Lord threw the immortality elixir aside, searched everywhere, and even opened the iron box layer by layer: "No, why is it gone?"
"What is Yinjun looking for?" Li Weiyi asked.
Yin Jun said: "She sent you to Nanyan Pass, first, to send you out of the main altar and give you freedom. Secondly, she must have brought out something extremely important that we urgently need. Did she give you anything else?"
"No, before leaving, I only gave you this iron box... If there is anything else..."
Li Weiyi took out the golden smiling Buddha mask and handed it to Yin Jun: "But she gave this mask to me a long time ago!"
The Hidden Lord took the mask and immediately activated his spiritual light, and the mask suddenly burst into a dazzling brilliance. Looking carefully, the inside of the mask showed array diagrams and array texts, which were densely packed and extremely profound.
“That’s what it is!”
The Hidden Lord let out a long sigh, memorized it quickly, and imprinted it into his mind: "There are some things on it that can only be interpreted by the Zuoqiu Menting. Without these formation diagrams and formation texts, if we want to attack the Rice Sect headquarters, the casualties will be less than five to one. No party can afford such a loss."
After writing down everything, Yin Jun erased the battle formation diagram and battle formation text on the inside of the mask and returned it to Li Weiyi: "Did she ask you to convey any message?"
Li Weiyi didn't want to say it, because it meant that Yao Qingxuan might die in the Rice Sect. But there was no doubt that it was her own choice, and she couldn't help feeling extremely uncomfortable.
Li Weiyi sat down gloomily: "It is true that corpses grow rice."
Yao Qingxuan didn't say it explicitly, but that was what he meant.
Yin Jun and Zhou Bida's faces changed drastically, although all parties had already suspected it. To actually confirm it was another matter.
You know, this is not the first time that corpses have grown rice. The last time it did, it directly led to the extinction of all humans in an entire habitat, turning it into a world of rice men.
The Hermit asked in a dry voice, "When will the rice flowers bloom all over the world?"
"Three months later... But she said that we can't take it seriously, so the Rice Cult will try to delay as much as possible." Li Weiyi immediately added: "By the way! By then, the Rice Cult and the demon tribe will join forces to attack Lingxiao City together."
Then, Li Weiyi told them what he had seen and heard in Leiling City, and told them that the demon clan had also joined forces with some forces in the netherworld of the dead.
Yinjun and Zhou Bida had both seen a lot of storms, but they were still stunned by the news Li Weiyi told them. They held their breath and their hearts beat like thunder.
"Three months...is time so tight?" Zhou Bi said.
Yin Jun clenched his fists and said, "All the forces in the world wish that the demon clan would tear Yu Yaozi into pieces, and they also wish that Yu Yaozi would exterminate the demon clan. The demon clan and Dao Cult are too good at choosing their tactics. If they attack Lingxiao City, everyone in the world will applaud and stand by and watch until both sides are defeated."
"I suspect that if I pass this news back to Zuoqiumen, it will backfire."
Li Weiyi asked, "Will the Zuoqiu Sect also sit on the mountain and watch tigers fight?"
"Who knows?"
Yin Jun was very excited: "Now, Zuoqiu Clan and Xuejian Tang Clan have united all parties and intend to attack the underground immortal palace, but the people are not united and are afraid of casualties. If the news spreads back, all parties will probably stop and let the demon clan, Dao Cult, and the court fight first. No matter what, let's go back first."
Zhou Bi said: "Leave the thirty imperial cultivators controlled by Luan Sheng and Lin You to me, and I will report to Luantai."
"Oh, and one more thing. Yang Shenjing and Xu Fudu are the two deputy hall masters of the Dao Sect. Is there any chance to overthrow the Sui Sect first?" Li Weiyi said.
Yin Jun said: "How easy is that? The power of the Sui clan is so great now, and they are deeply trusted by the Second Palace Master. Moreover, they are retainers of the Jiuli tribe, and their backgrounds are very clean."
"The court is now corrupt, with people attacking each other and in chaos. Any news that gets out will be considered a factional dispute." Zhou Bi said.
Yinjun pulled Li Weiyi and prepared to take him back to Lizhou, away from the center of the storm.
Li Weiyi suddenly thought of something: "Elder Zhou's family is in the hands of the Twin Rice Sect?"
Zhou Bi Da's eyes showed a sad look: "Don't worry, I can tell right from wrong when it comes to major issues, and I won't be controlled by them. If they kill my family, I will go to accompany them."
Yin Jun said: "Old Zhou, Yinmen will definitely do its best to rescue you."
Li Weiyi quickly explained: "That's not what I meant! Elder Zhou, I believe that family, country and the world are men's responsibilities, and the love of children is also a man's responsibility. Who controls them, and where are they?"
Zhou Bi shook his head, his eyes reddened: "I don't know! The one who carried out this was not the one in our Hidden Sect, but another force in the Rice Sect, perhaps the Yang Shenjing you mentioned."
Li Weiyi looked at Yin Jun: "When I set out, she said that she went to Nanyan Pass to find the mansion elders. The mansion elders are responsible for all matters here. I think she is hinting to me that Elder Zhou's family can be found through the mansion elders. I want to give it a try!"
Yin Jun stared at Li Weiyi: "Why do you think the cult kept everything secret from her and was on guard against her? Do you think you are safe? Oh, okay, okay, I never tried to persuade you to stay. At most, I will wait for you outside the city for half a day. Lao Zhou, do you think our hidden man is qualified?"
"I am not qualified to be a hidden god."
Zhou Bi Da's face was full of gratitude. He packed the Zhuxia Fruit and the Longevity Golden Elixir into a box and handed it to Li Weiyi: "But a humane hidden god is more willing to go through fire and water for you. You must accept it and don't refuse. Please!"
Li Weiyi was not a fussy person, so he accepted the iron box and made a promise to him: "The Hidden Sect will not abandon any of its members, including their families."
…
The Hermit was carrying a great secret concerning the lives and deaths of countless people, and was unwilling to take any risks, so he immediately left the city.
Li Weiyi disguised himself again and headed to the Twin Rice Sect's base at Nanyan Pass.
Guanlan Pavilion, a brothel.
Many beautiful women of the Rice Cult were sold to brothels and had tragic fates. This also made brothels an excellent place for Rice Cult practitioners to obtain intelligence and establish bases.
Li Weiyi had just found Guanlan Pavilion and was looking at the gorgeous and majestic garden architecture in front of him.
“Boom!”
The entire Nanyan Pass shook violently, and fluctuations of magical energy spread throughout the city, activating the light gauze of the formation layer by layer.
It contains the fluctuations of the magical energy of the immortals.
Snowflakes covered the entire city, all the size of goose feathers.
Li Weiyi looked up at the fourth-tier city and discerned that the battle waves were coming from the direction of Zhou's residence.
The sound of fighting was like a bolt from the blue. Li Weiyi's heart stopped beating briefly, and his mind was filled with the question "why?"
Without any hesitation, he immediately turned around and walked quickly towards the city gate.
Inside the Zhou Mansion, large areas of buildings collapsed and the defensive formation exploded, as it was breached from the outside.
"I'm a step too late!"
Yao Qian was dressed in the robes of a Shaoqing official, with an upright posture and handsome face like jade. He shrouded the entire Nanyan Pass in his Taoist heart and appearance, carefully sensing every passerby and paying special attention to the direction of the city gate.
His willpower is not strong enough to lock onto everyone, so he needs to rely on luck.
Around him stood two rows of female officials from the Luantai, all of them had pure immortal bodies and strong cultivation.
On the other side, Zhou Bida was shot through the chest, forming a bloody hole as big as a bowl, and blood was flowing from all his orifices. But his vitality was strong, and he was not dead yet, and was twitching in pain.
The ancestor of the Sheng family released a thread of spiritual light from his eyebrows, which drilled into Zhou Bi's head, trying to take his soul and search for his memories.
"You...don't even think about it..."
Zhou Bi roared loudly, gathering all the remaining strength in his body, and rushed out from the bottom of the pit angrily, punching the ancestor of the Sheng family. The light of his fist was domineering and powerful, causing the energy of heaven and earth in the entire Zhou Mansion to boil.
The Sheng family's ancestor's face suddenly changed and he immediately stepped back.
"boom!"
Yao Qian descended from the sky and crushed Zhou Bi's head into bloody mud with one foot. A pit appeared on the ground again. A loud voice was heard: "Close the city gates, and the whole city is under martial law."
A Luantai female official said, "What if the cult leader who came to contact us has already left the city?"
"The leader of the Sui Sect will take action personally. Even if the person who comes is from the realm of immortality, he will definitely die." Yao Qian said lightly.
