Chapter 344 At All Costs
Li Weiyi frowned and asked, "Who are you following?"
"Venerable Nan...ah..."
Xu Xiangu had just uttered three words when Li Weiyi's spear pierced through the palm of her hand. Half of her body was numb and twitching in pain.
She quickly changed her words: "A year ago, the Yang family secretly took over everything in Yuntian Xianyuan and the four major city gates. The elders of the mansion have already surrendered to them, and we were forced to do so."
Li Weiyi squatted down and asked: "Have you seen anyone from the Yang family?"
Xu Xiangu shook her head: "They are very cautious. I only heard the elders of the palace mention it once, and then I knew that the Yang family of Suizong is also a force under the Divine Religion."
Li Weiyi was disappointed. Even with Xu Xiangu's high status, she knew very little about the upper-level personnel. No wonder it was difficult for all parties to find out the core secrets of the Twin Rice Sect.
It seems that I must go and meet the elder of the mansion.
"Who is the elder of the mansion?" Li Weiyi asked.
"Jiang Xin, one of the top masters of the third generation of the Jiang family, is the chief of the Nanyan Pass Attendant Hall."
This time, Xu Xiangu did not hesitate to tell the information of the mansion elder, sneering in her heart. She was indeed no match for him and had to give in, but the mansion elder was a person of great cultivation.
If this kid dares to come to my house, he will be walking into a trap.
Xu Xiangu was imagining how she would avenge Li Weiyi when he fell into the hands of the elders of the mansion...
"puff!"
Li Weiyi thrust his spear hard, piercing her head.
Use fire to burn the body to ashes, leaving no trace.
I didn't dig up the Dao Lotus for fear of exposing my flaws.
But he took away the bag from her.
Unexpectedly, the amount of Yongquan coins, silver coins, and various treasures including thousand-year-old elixir in the bag was huge, worth at least one million Yongquan coins.
Obviously, the Dao Cult's purse in Nanyan Pass is in her hands.
Li Weiyi walked out of the backyard formation.
Outside, many Dao Sect masters who had heard the noise had gathered there, each holding a magical weapon and with unfriendly looks in their eyes.
Li Weiyi had already made up his mind and no longer had to restrain himself. He walked forward calmly, took out the evil camel bell and started shaking it. The surrounding Dao Cult masters suddenly became confused and screamed.
The sound of the bell should be controlled within a certain range.
Li Weiyi walked out of the door and quickly blended into the crowd.
Behind him, the backyard of Guanlan Pavilion was filled with roars, killing, madness, and crazy laughter. The minds of the Twin Rice Sect's martial artists were filled with negative emotions. The power of evil and evil spread, and magic weapons collided and killed each other.
The stronger the evil thoughts a person has, the greater the impact he will suffer.
"Bang! Bang..."
One body after another was beaten so hard that it broke through doors, windows and walls and fell out onto the street.
Upon seeing this scene, the Twin Rice Sect's spies stationed outside Guanlan Pavilion immediately went forward to report the news.
Li Weiyi did not go far away. He climbed up a watchtower three streets away from Guanlan Pavilion and took out a set of women's clothing from Xu Xiangu's bag. After hesitating for a moment, his eyes darkened, and he put it on.
The art of disguise can naturally change one's appearance into that of a woman.
This is the best way to hide. Li Weiyi used to resist it.
For now we can only do it under duress.
He took out a golden smiling Buddha mask and put it on his face. He looked at Guanlan Pavilion from afar, quietly waiting for the arrival of the elder of the palace "Jiang Xin".
The Attendant Hall is under the jurisdiction of Luantai.
In every palace of Lingxiao Habitat, there is a palace, which is commanded by the palace master.
It also has "Shou Ya", "Yu Ya" and "Zhua Ya".
The chief yamen is the think tank, responsible for offering advice and making decisions.
Yu Ya is responsible for all kinds of intelligence, espionage, and lurking.
The Claw Ya, composed of martial arts masters, is responsible for the operations.
The person in charge of the three yamen is the chief official.
Nanyan Pass is not a provincial capital and has no palace master. As the chief yamen, Jiang Xin is already the supreme commander of the Attendant Palace.
Li Weiyi would naturally not go to the Attendant's Hall, as that would be tantamount to walking into a trap.
But since something happened at the largest stronghold of the Dao Cult, it was impossible for Jiang Xin not to come.
Just a quarter of an hour later, a large number of troops arrived and surrounded Guanlan Pavilion. All the formations in the surrounding city areas were activated, and the formations and light veils covered the sky and the earth.
Not long after, another gorgeous exotic beast carriage drove towards Guanlan Pavilion at high speed, followed by two rows of cavalry from the Attendant Hall.
The strange beast carriage stopped outside Guanlan Pavilion.
An old man in a purple robe got off the car quickly. Jiang Xin was not old at all, except for a few strands of white hair on his temples. He stood straight, with sharp eyes, and gave off an aura of authority without even getting angry.
"Master Yamen!"
"Master, how did you alarm the attendants?"
The soldiers of the city defense army saluted and bowed.
"The Attendant Palace has already discovered that Guanlan Pavilion has a close relationship with the cult and has been secretly monitoring it. They have not acted rashly because they want to catch the big fish behind the scenes. Withdraw your people and leave this place to us."
Jiang Xin said this calmly, fearing that he would be found out by the city defense forces, so he could only make excuses like this, and then quickly walked in.
Li Weiyi did not act rashly and continued to wait.
Another half an hour passed, and Jiang Xin dealt with the hidden dangers in Guanlan Pavilion before walking out. His eyes were restrained and gloomy, and it was obvious that he was filled with rage.
Who is it?
The means are too evil.
Li Weiyi imitated Yao Qingxuan's tone and sent a voice transmission through his magical energy into his ears: "Elder, if you rush to Guanlan Pavilion in such a hurry, it will definitely catch the eyes of those who have ulterior motives and arouse suspicion."
This voice...
Jiang Xin, who was standing outside Guanlan Pavilion, suddenly raised his head, his pupils shrank, he looked around, and became nervous.
He has lived for nearly a hundred years, with extremely strong cultivation and pride in the world. He is one of the top masters of the third generation of the Jiang family and one of the twenty-eight elders of the Rice Cult in Lingxiao Habitat.
But the other party was Yao Qingxuan.
Anyone at the same level can easily kill him.
Yao Qingxuan could send the magical energy into his ears, which would allow him to die with one strike.
Li Weiyi saw that Jiang Xin did not dare to act rashly, and knew that Yao Qingxuan must have a great deterrent effect on him, so he said: "Don't watch, and it's better not to play tricks in front of me. I can guarantee that you will die before Yao Qian arrives. Even if he arrives, I can send him away."
Jiang Xin quickly calmed down and had a plan in mind. Then, following the instructions of "Yao Qingxuan", he avoided everyone and climbed up the sentry tower step by step.
Li Weiyi knew very well that fighting with an elder of Tianxia Palace was like dancing on the edge of a knife. Once his identity was discovered, or the other party took a risk, he would be in great danger.
But he had no way out.
"He should be more nervous than me! He has to worry about being purged by Yao Qingxuan, and also about his identity being exposed."
Li Weiyi calmed down completely and listened to the sound of Jiang Xin's footsteps climbing the stairs.
Since Jiang Xin used to obey Yao Qingxuan and only surrendered to the Sui Zong Yang family a year ago, he must not have entered the core layer of the Yang family.
"You can stop now!" Li Weiyi said lightly.
Jiang Xin stopped on the stairs on the lower level. He looked up and saw a corner of Yao Qingxuan. He quickly pretended to be terrified and bowed, saying, "Your Excellency, Your Excellency... I know nothing about it. It was all those people from the Sui Sect who did all the evil things. They must have wanted to eliminate dissidents. I was also kept in the dark and only learned the news just now..."
Li Weiyi was too lazy to watch his acting: "Eliminate dissidents? Jiang Xin, are you stupid, or have you sided with them? Zhou Bida is dead, right?"
Jiang Xin nodded: "Yao Qian doesn't dare to let him live. Once he really speaks, the risk is too great."
Li Weiyi felt a pain in his heart and tried to control his emotions: "So this Venerable said that you are stupid and Yao Qian is extremely smart."
Jiang Xin showed a bewildered look: "Please explain clearly, Your Excellency?"
Li Weiyi said, "I don't care whether you have surrendered to them or not, but the most important thing for a person is to live wisely. Zhou Bida is the deputy general. How important is his position? How much effort did the Divine Cult spend to persuade him to rebel? After his death, three months later, the Divine Cult and the demon tribe will attack Lingxiao City. Who will help us break through? You?"
"What? Attack Lingxiao City?" Jiang Xin was really shocked.
This matter was finalized only a few days ago. As a person of special status, Jiang Xin had to be cautious in passing on information, so naturally he didn't know it so quickly.
Li Weiyi grasped Yao Qingxuan's tone and said, "Now you know why they killed Zhou Bida, right?"
Jiang Xin's expression changed again and again: "But they said, Your Excellency, there is something wrong with you..."
"You're saying I have ulterior motives?"
Li Weiyi knew that Jiang Xin must be in a state of panic when he said this, so he struck while the iron was hot: "So, I said you are stupid. Why would I have any disloyalty towards the Divine Religion? Is it of any benefit to me?"
"The one who really has ulterior motives is Yang Shenjing."
"The Sui Sect was able to grow rapidly thanks to the support of the Divine Religion. But now, they have joined the Second Palace Master and can get whatever they want. They can sail freely throughout the entire Lingxiao Habitat. In just two years, they have grown rapidly."
"When Yang breaks through the realm of the gods and becomes transcendent, the Sui Sect may become a sect with tens of millions of members in the future, controlling the lifeline of transportation in the entire Lingxiao. That would be a glorious time."
"For the future of the sect, if they can turn against the Jiuli tribe, they can also turn against the Divine Religion."
"Now you understand why you didn't know about such a big thing as the attack on Lingxiao City. Because the headquarters didn't even tell Yang Shenjing, they were on guard against them! You submitted to them, so naturally they were also on guard against them."
"Master, are you going to choose the Sui clan and rise to prominence with them?"
As he said this, Li Weiyi gently patted Dafeng who was hiding in her clothes.
Suddenly.
A terrifying aura of the Immortal Realm burst out from Li Weiyi, shocking Jiang Xin so much that he knelt down with a thud, and said in a trembling voice: "Venerable, save me... I didn't know, I was kept in the dark, how could I know that Yang Shenjing was really a wolf that could not be tamed, and I would not dare to betray the Divine Religion even if I had ten guts... I still have the Death Spirit Fire of Dao Zu in my body, I dare not, absolutely not..."
Li Weiyi could only rely on the information gap to quickly confirm that Yang Shenjing and Sui Zong had betrayed the Twin Rice Sect and put everything on them in order to save Yao Qingxuan of the headquarters.
Suizong, a retainer of the Jiuli tribe, had a clean background and it was difficult to trace his relationship with the Dao Sect.
There weren't even many people under the Sui Zong in the main temple. Yang Qingxi had to seize the followers of Wang Shu in order to build his own team.
This is the advantage of the Sui Zong, but also their disadvantage.
This shows that Sui Zong and the Twin Rice Sect do not have such a close relationship and are not the direct descendants of the Rice People, so it is possible to put the blame for the betrayal on them.
Moreover, Yang Qingxi dealt with Wang Shu in order to prevent Daojiao from inserting forces into Suizong again to check and balance the Yang family. From this, it can be seen that there must be someone in Daojiao who is wary of Yang Shenjing.
If we cannot rely on the imperial court to get rid of Yang Shenjing and Yao Qian.
Then let the Twin Rice Sect clean up the mess.
This is just the first step.
Next, Li Weiyi vowed to find ways to prove all this and make them shoot themselves in the foot for today's game.
