Chapter 178 Demon Cult Witch 7

Yao Rong was walking on a deserted mountain road, and the system suddenly popped up: [How can you be sure that she will help you? ]

The memories and plots received by the host were all transmitted by it, so how could it not know that the original body and the head of Zhaotian Sect were in the same group.

Yao Rong seemed to guess what the system was thinking: "She and I are not in the same group, but she and my second brother are in love. If Yaojiabao hadn't had an accident, she would have become my sister-in-law long ago. I didn't ask her to betray the righteousness of the martial arts world, nor did I ask her to cooperate with me from the inside and outside. I just made a small request. For the sake of our past friendship, she would not refuse."

The system still couldn't quite understand Yao Rong's approach.

If you say she was hiding her identity, she did indeed do a lot of disguises.

But she didn't pretend at all, and even dared to meet the head of Zhaotian Sect in her true form.

[So many years have passed, you are no longer the third daughter of the Yao family. If you go to see her, aren't you afraid that she will report you?]

"Why does she want to report me? Just because I am the leader of the Demon Cult?"

The system wanted to reply "Yes".

"If we can use the simple righteous and evil ways to distinguish good and bad, there won't be so many grudges and hatreds in the world."

Yao Rongrao said with interest: "Who do you think determines the so-called righteous and evil ways?"

[This... wait for me to check...] The system began to track the data of this world.

"What I want to say is that the so-called righteousness and the evil sect are divided by people. Whoever has the right to speak can speak loudly."

"For example, if one day I lead Juexian Pavilion to unify the martial arts world, I say Juexian Pavilion is the righteous path, then Juexian Pavilion is the righteous path. I say Xuyang Sect is the evil sect, then Xuyang Sect is the evil sect. Anyone who opposes what I say is a traitor to the righteousness of the martial arts world, and all righteous people can attack him."

System: [……]

"Don't you believe it?"

[No, I found it.]

The steady mechanical sound of the system fluctuated slightly.

[Sixty-seven years ago, the head of the Xuyang Sect did this. After he became the first person in the martial arts world, he listed the ten major crimes of Juexian Pavilion and called it a demon sect.

Yao Rong's lips curled up with a hint of sarcasm: "It is true."

But I don't understand why they must do this and must distinguish between good and evil.

Some sects are extremely evil and it is indeed okay to be labeled as a demon sect, but Juexian Pavilion has never done anything evil to oppress the people and lose its conscience. The more criticized thing is that it has taken in some vicious and extremely evil people.

But those famous and upright sects have done fewer dirty things.

"Of course it is for the benefit of Xuyang Sect."

The sun came out, and the water vapor in the mountains and forests gradually faded. Since

he was free, Yao Rong casually broke off a branch, sharpened the front end of the branch, stood by the stream, and stared at the water surface wrinkled by the wind.

"First of all, the Xuyang Sect controls the discourse power of what is the righteous sect and what is the evil sect. As long as the sect is not on good terms with the Xuyang Sect, they have to worry about whether they will be labeled as the evil sect or the evil sect's accomplices one day. Therefore , even if these righteous sects will not try to please the Xuyang Sect, they will not go against many of the Xuyang Sect's decisions."

In this regard, Yaojiabao where Yao Rong was located was the best example.

Just because Yaojiabao was on good terms with Juexian Pavilion and never showed any intention of surrendering to the Xuyang Sect, it was suddenly destroyed.

"Secondly, every few years or more than ten years, the Xuyang Sect will stand up and call on everyone to attack the Juexian Pavilion."

"No matter how powerful the Juexian Pavilion is, it is still a sect. Can it defeat the entire martial arts world?"

"Once the Xuyang Sect leads everyone to defeat the Juexian Pavilion, what do you think will happen to the prestige of the Xuyang Sect in the martial arts world?"

The system said: [After a few years or more than ten years, the prestige of the Xuyang Sect may decline, but as long as the Xuyang Sect raises its arms and calls for action, it can re-establish its prestige in the martial arts world]

Just like six years ago, the prestige of the Xuyang Sect in the martial arts world had already declined a lot.

But the leader of Xuyang Sect killed the former leader of Juexian Pavilion, so Xuyang Sect regained its position as the top leader of the righteous path.

The fish in the mountain stream swam very slowly, and Yao Rong hit them with his fork: "What would happen if Xuyang Sect was a little less ruthless when attacking Juexian Pavilion, such as sending masters or excellent seedlings from other sects to the most dangerous place to fight against the people of Juexian Pavilion?"

In this way, Juexian Pavilion became the "helper" of Xuyang Sect, helping Xuyang Sect to weaken the strength of other sects.

Moreover, if Xuyang Sect killed people from other sects, would other sects let it go?

These people have wives and children, fathers and mothers, and fellow disciples.

Even if there was no hatred between the two parties before, once the killing begins, the hatred will never be cut off.

They will fight each other until one of them dies.

The system clicked its tongue twice, lamenting the sinister intentions of the Xuyang Sect.

However, the old doubts were answered, and new doubts surfaced.

[According to what you said, Juexian Pavilion is a target specially set up by the Xuyang Sect. Then why did the current head of the Xuyang Sect insist on eradicating Juexian Pavilion? ]

Yao Rong had reason to doubt that the child she wanted to raise was not only Su Yingxi, but also her family system.

However, it was a good thing that Tongzi was studious and inquisitive.

"After cutting the same bunch of leeks for decades, it's time to cut a different bunch of leeks. After all, even if Juexian Pavilion is gone, there are still Linxian Pavilion and Fengxian Pavilion. Xuyang Sect can use the merit of destroying Juexian Pavilion to consolidate its position in the martial arts world again."

[Is it possible that no one who can see through these tricks has appeared after so many years? ]

"Maybe."

Yao Rong stopped after forking three fish. She walked to the shore, took a banana leaf to wrap the three fish, and walked towards the cave.

On the way, she also picked some herbs that can be used for seasoning.

"They may not think so far ahead and see through the sinister intentions of the Xuyang Sect, but they all sneer at the idea of ​​the righteous path and the evil path."

"But, either they are not strong enough to change the status quo; or they simply choose to protect themselves and do not want to cause trouble for themselves and their sect."

If Juexian Pavilion wants to completely change its situation, it still depends on Juexian Pavilion itself.

***

Axi slept until the afternoon. As soon as

she walked out of the room, Man Banxue came over with a box of cakes: "Are you up? Haven't had lunch yet?"

"Why are you here, Miss Man?"

"I was free and thought it was inconvenient for you to move around, so I came to chat with you and relieve your boredom."

Axi made a cup of mint tea for Man Banxue: "Miss Man, please sit down."

Man Banxue put down the bag of cakes and drank a sip of the cold mint tea: "This cake is a specialty of our place, try it and see if it suits your taste."

Axi tasted a piece and her eyes lit up: "Delicious!"

The two chatted casually while drinking tea and eating cakes.

Unlike Axi who seldom left the sect, Man Banxue had been running around outside with his master and senior brothers since he was five years old, so most of the time it was Man Banxue who was talking and Axi who was listening.

As they were talking, Man Banxue mentioned the free clinic: "Zhaotian Sect holds a free clinic at the foot of the mountain every month. On that day, even people who live dozens of miles away will rush over with their families and ask Zhaotian Sect to help them with medical treatment."

"Dozens of miles away?" Axi was surprised, "Isn't that too far?"

Man Banxue sighed, "It is far, but ordinary people can't afford to see a doctor. Sometimes, in order to catch up with the free clinic, they will leave two days in advance and bring some dry food on the way."

If the family is not really poor, why would they go through so much trouble.

As a doctor, he would be more compassionate than ordinary people, Axi sighed softly.

Man Banxue talked about the plague disaster in Xiangcheng some time ago.

Xiangcheng was originally a very prosperous city, but some time ago, Xiangcheng suffered a flood, and after the flood, the plague was rampant. In order to prevent the spread of the plague, the prefect of Xiangcheng directly sealed off the city and did not allow any citizen in the city to escape.

But as early as the flood, Xiangcheng had almost used up all the stockpiled medicinal materials.

Without medicinal materials and a lack of doctors, the measure of sealing the city was undoubtedly to let all the people wait to die.

Ah Xi couldn't believe it was true: "How could they do this... Obviously, many people in Xiangcheng are not desperate..."

Man Banxue smiled bitterly: "If you say that the Xiangcheng prefect is a bad guy, he is indeed a bad guy. He deprived the people in the city of their chance to survive. But when the city was closed, he had the opportunity to leave, but he not only chose to stay, but also refused to send his relatives away, and vowed to live and die with Xiangcheng..."

"Is the world outside so chaotic?"

"Don't you know the situation outside?"

A Xi shook his head: "I have never been down the mountain. My understanding of the downhill situation comes from my senior brothers and sisters. But what they usually tell me is what happened in which sect, and what bad things the Demon Cult has done."

Man Banxue sneered: "I can probably guess what your senior brothers said to you. They can only see the chaos in the martial arts world, but not the suffering of the people. That's because the martial arts world is closely related to them, and what does the suffering of the people have to do with them?" After all,

she was still in the territory of the Xuyang Sect, so Man Banxue couldn't say too many bad things about the martial arts sects. She complained a few words and then skipped the topic.

Ah Xi took Man Banxue's words to heart: "Senior Sister Man, can you continue to tell me about the situation outside?"

Man Banxue told Ah Xi about her experiences along the way.

Ah Xi added some water to Man Banxue's teacup from time to time.

Man Banxue was so dry from talking that she raised her cup and drank it all in one gulp: "I seldom go out normally. This time, I was in a hurry and passed by many interesting places but didn't have time to take a good look at them."

Ah Xi blurted out: "I also want to go down the mountain to take a look."

"Then go ahead. You are already sixteen years old. You can walk down the mountain at this age."

Ah Xi's words were just impulsive. Seeing that Man Banxue not only did not oppose her but also showed her approval, she could not help but start to think seriously about this possibility: "But I have never been down the mountain in these years. I know nothing about what is happening down the mountain, and I don't have any ability to protect myself..."

Man Banxue felt that this was not a problem: "After the sword-fighting conference is over, you can go to Zhaotian Gate with us. We will go together, and our safety is still guaranteed. If you are tired of playing, you can work as a doctor at Huwei Escort Agency for a period of time in exchange for rewards, and then ask the escorts of Huwei Escort Agency to send you back."

"Is it still possible?"

Man Banxue smiled, "Doctors are very popular everywhere. In Zhaotian Sect, besides my master, only I and a fellow apprentice have studied medicine. No matter what we do, everyone protects me and my fellow apprentice. Occasionally, when someone goes down the mountain, they will bring us all kinds of food when they come back." "

The atmosphere in your sect is really great."

"Because I helped them a lot when they were injured. They benefited from me, so of course they would take better care of me." Man Banxue narrowed her eyes and finally realized what was wrong. "Your senior sister and junior brother are not nice to you, how do other fellow disciples treat you?"

Ah Xi shook her head: "I am just a little doctor in the Xuyang Sect. I don't have much presence in the sect and I don't know many people." Man

Banxue snorted coldly: "Then have you ever boiled medicine for your fellow disciples, or treated their wounds?"

She was used to her fellow disciples' lack of enthusiasm for Ah Xi. But until she heard what Man Banxue said, Ah Xi suddenly realized that the things she took for granted were not always right.

"What's going on with the Xuyang Sect?" Man Banxue was furious and felt more sorry for Axi's situation. "They must think you're easy to bully because you have a good temper."

For the next two days, Axi stayed with Man Banxue.

She heard Man Banxue talk about a lot of things outside and witnessed how Man Banxue interacted with her fellow disciples.

This kind of natural intimacy that comes from within cannot be faked.

With Man Banxue's introduction, Axi also met the head of the Zhaotian Sect.

The head of the Zhaotian Sect treated her very kindly. Not only did he give her a jade pendant as a gift, he also asked about her progress in learning medicine, taught her medical skills, and felt sorry for her situation in the sect.

Once, the head of Zhaotian Sect said, "You have great talent. If you want to become a famous doctor, you still have to travel more outside. Staying in Xuyang Sect will only limit you."

It was just a whim at first, but now Ah Xi really wanted to go out and see the outside world.

Moreover, if she didn't stay in the sect often, Senior Sister Xie wouldn't have to worry about her taking the position of the head of the clinic.

When the sprain was almost healed, Ah Xi returned to the clinic and told everyone about her plan while everyone was there.

After a moment of daze, Doctor Xie immediately jumped out and retorted loudly: "No, you are a weak doctor and a weak woman. What if you encounter danger when you go out?"

Senior Sister Xie and A Xi thought of the same thing. If A Xi didn't stay in the sect often, wouldn't the threat to her be smaller? So Senior Sister Xie persuaded A Xi: "Dad, you are really worrying too much. A Xi is a member of the Xuyang Sect. Who would not give face to the Xuyang Sect when she goes out?" Doctor

Xie got angry with his daughter for the first time: "No! Absolutely not!"

Doctor Xie's reaction shocked not only Senior Sister Xie, but also A Xi.

Doctor Xie also realized that he had overreacted. He ignored Senior Sister Xie who was running out with her face covered, and softened his tone to persuade A Xi.

A Xi showed an expression of emotion on her face, but she was suspicious in her heart.

In the afternoon, Senior Sister Xie finally returned to the clinic, but her face was unhappy. When she saw Doctor Xie sitting there, she snorted coldly.

Doctor Xie sighed and pulled Senior Sister Xie to the backyard.

A Xi patted the herbal dust off his palm, quietly slipped to the backyard, hid behind a pillar and eavesdropped on the conversation between the two.

Doctor Xie first comforted Senior Sister Xie and then said, "Dad didn't mean to lose his temper with you. It's just that on the day I accepted Axi as my disciple, the master specifically instructed that Axi must not leave Xuyang Mountain."

Senior Sister Xie asked about the confusion in Axi's heart: "Axi is just an ordinary orphan. Why did the master give Dad so many instructions?"

"Dad doesn't know either."

"Could it be that Axi is the daughter of an old friend of the master?" Senior Sister Xie denied her own thoughts, "No, I've never seen the master take special care of Axi."

If the master cared about Axi, she and her father would never dare to do so many tricks behind her back.

"What kind of person is the headmaster? If he arranged this, he must have his own intention. Anyway, you and your junior brother should keep an eye on Axi, tell Axi more about the dangers outside, and try to dispel Axi's thoughts."

Seeing that the two had almost finished talking, Axi suppressed the shock in his heart and ran away quietly.

Not long after, Doctor Xie and Senior Sister Xie came back.

Doctor Xie said, "I have to go out for something. You guys stay in the clinic and keep watch."

Axi didn't know where Doctor Xie went, but in the evening, Mu Wenxuan, who was busy all over, came to the clinic again.

After exchanging a few pleasantries with Axi, Mu Wenxuan said, "I heard that you were going down the mountain to travel."

Axi was stunned: "How could such a small matter alarm you, Senior Brother?"

Mu Wenxuan explained, "I met your master this afternoon. He was very worried about your safety and wanted me to persuade you."

There were more and more things that were wrong, and Axi deliberately said, "I plan to follow the people from the escort agency. With the protection of the people from the escort agency, nothing will happen."

Mu Wenxuan persuaded him gently for a long time, but Axi seemed determined to go out, and in the end, he lost his temper with Mu Wenxuan.

Mu Wenxuan had never been angry with a woman before, and his face turned black.

He went to see Doctor Xie and asked him, "Axi has never thought about going down the mountain before. Why did she suddenly have this idea?"

Doctor Xie didn't know either. Instead, Junior Brother Fu said, "Senior Sister Axi has been in close contact with the people from Zhaotian Sect recently. Maybe the people from Zhaotian Sect said something that made Senior Sister Axi have this idea."

Mu Wenxuan looked grim and asked someone to rearrange Zhaotian Sect's accommodation.

He couldn't control the people from Zhaotian Sect, and he didn't know what ideas the people from Zhaotian Sect would instill in Axi.

The people from Zhaotian Sect couldn't be allowed to continue to contact Axi.

When Axi returned to her residence from the clinic, she saw the people from Zhaotian Sect moving things from a distance.

Man Banxue crossed her arms and seemed particularly angry.

Axi hurried over and asked Man Banxue in a low voice what was wrong.

"I don't know what the Xuyang Sect is thinking. We were living well here, but suddenly someone came to inform us that all the courtyards nearby needed to be renovated, and we had to move to the courtyard in the east."

Man Banxue complained, "Your residence is at the far west, and it's so intertwined. If I come to find you, it will take at least half an hour to go back and forth. It's too troublesome."

Yes, the Zhaotian Sect lived well here, so why did the sect want to renovate the courtyard after she asked to go out?

Was this a coincidence, or did

the sect intentionally separate the people of the Zhaotian Sect from her, and prevent her from contacting the people of the Zhaotian Sect, fearing that the people of the Zhaotian Sect would "corrupt" her?

A sense of horror suddenly rose from the bottom of Axi's heart, making her teeth tremble slightly.
