Chapter 136 Widow
While Lan Nu was serving tea, Ren Suqiong took the opportunity to tell Ji Changsheng about the forces behind the other four true disciples.
As I said, if you want to make it in this day and age, 30% depends on your ability and 70% depends on your background.
Only Ji Changsheng relies 100% on himself.
The five true disciples all have followers behind them.
"That Wan Rusong's father was once the leader's senior brother, and he was also a supreme elder of our Holy Church. Twenty years ago, the leader and Fairy Linglong had a duel, and the leader fled back to the Holy Church, but Elder Wan happened to be outside the mountain protection formation at the time, and was hit head-on by Fairy Linglong's sword."
Ji Changsheng: "...So it simply became the merit of Fairy Linglong's sword?"
Ren Suqiong nodded, speechless.
"But Elder Wan's sacrifice was valuable. It was because he blocked Fairy Linglong's sword that the mountain protection formation had time to be activated, thus preserving the foundation of the Holy Church. Therefore, Senior Brother Wan has a special meaning to our Holy Church."
Ji Changsheng understood.
This is the descendant of a hero.
No, this is the descendant of a demon.
"Su Qiong, let me sort this out."
Ji Changsheng organized his words and then realized the truth of what happened that year.
"Twenty years ago, the leader challenged Fairy Linglong to a duel. He originally intended to defeat her completely and become the best in the world. But later, Fairy Linglong became more powerful than the leader expected, so he strategically moved to the main temple of the Holy Church. This is not a failure, just a small win.
"The leader's original intention was to lure Fairy Linglong into the Holy Church's mountain protection formation, and then strike back to kill Fairy Linglong once and for all, thus eliminating a great enemy for our Holy Church.
"The leader had a good plan, but all of it was seen through by that Wan. Wan was an undercover agent sent by Xuandu Temple to our Holy Church. He sacrificed himself for the safety of Fairy Linglong.
"On the surface, he protected the foundation of the Holy Church. In reality, he saved Fairy Linglong's life.
"If there hadn't been this Wan, our Holy Church would have been invincible twenty years ago.
"He is the biggest traitor in the history of our Holy Church. His son is also a traitor. Everyone in the Holy Church has the right to kill him."
Ji Changsheng understood everything and his eyes became clearer.
Ren Suqiong: “…”
I feel more and more that the leader's vision is better than mine.
The Holy Religion indeed needs talents like Changsheng.
The only drawback is that talents like Changsheng are somewhat useless to the Holy Religion.
But survival of the fittest is the law of natural selection, and this is probably the law of survival of the fittest in the Holy Religion.
Ren Suqiong could only comfort herself in this way.
Finally, she reminded Ji Changsheng: "Because of Elder Wan's contribution, the leader accepted Wan Rusong as his adopted son. He is more valued by the leader than me."
"Adopted son?"
Ji Changsheng's expression suddenly became solemn.
"Since ancient times, adopted sons have been required to kill their fathers. The leader is still too inexperienced. How can an adopted son be trusted? The one who can be trusted must be a biological son."
Ren Suqiong: "...The leader's own son was spoiled by his wife."
"The leader must have an illegitimate child."
Ren Suqiong: "Indeed, there was. The leader told me privately before, but he was killed."
Ji Changsheng coughed lightly and said, "Su Qiong, don't worry. The leader must have other illegitimate children. Wan Rusong has a traitorous mind. For the safety of the leader, he can't be kept. Tell me about the background of Wen Renjiayu who is having a ghost marriage with Wan Rusong."
"Ghost marriage?"
Ren Suqiong didn't keep up with Ji Changsheng's pace.
Ji Changsheng patiently explained: "Wan Rusong is going to die soon. Wen Renjiayu wants to marry a dead person. Isn't that just a ghost marriage?"
Ren Suqiong: "...Changsheng, you...I..."
She really didn't know what to say.
"Forget it, don't ask anymore."
Ren Suqiong gave up persuading and explaining.
"I can see that no matter what their origins are, you are determined to kill them. Let's stop talking nonsense and hurry up."
Ji Changsheng continued patiently: "Su Qiong, as long as they are willing to be my friends, they don't have to die. Even if they really want to die, I want to know the origins of their families so that I can continue to investigate. Otherwise, what if we leave the Holy Church in the future and the family forces behind them seek revenge on us? We must be prepared for any eventuality."
"What you said makes a lot of sense." Ren Suqiong was increasingly speechless.
Changsheng is thinking of eradicating the problem completely, he is really thinking ahead...
Why did Xuandu Temple cultivate such a murderous disciple?
She didn't understand and was greatly shocked.
"Wenren Renyu is the second daughter of the current patriarch of the Wenren family. Like the Lou family, the Wenren family has a long history within our Holy Church."
Before Ren Suqiong could finish her words, she was attracted by the sound in the cave.
“Good tea.”
"It's worthy of being called Mantuo tea."
“It’s as good as it sounds, but it tastes a bit weird.”
"puff."
Ji Changsheng couldn't help it.
"Su Qiong, let's go inside and talk."
Ren Suqiong shook her head helplessly.
She felt that after she met Ji Changsheng, the most common emotions she felt were helplessness and speechlessness.
The two of them walked into the cave side by side, just in time to see Lan Zhujun smiling as she watched the other four people sipping tea.
I have been caught in the rain before, and I will tear all your umbrellas into pieces.
A righteous witch is a witch.
Not a bit better.
After confirming that the four guys had already drunk the "Mantuo Tea", and seeing Ji Changsheng coming in, Lan Zhujun immediately said: "Master, Lan Nu has made them all drink the 'Mantuo Tea'."
Lan Zhujun's words made all four people alert.
"Owner?"
"Lannu?"
"Lanzhu-kun, what's going on?"
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
After all, they are the four true teachings of the Demonic Cult.
They are not so unresponsive to this.
The problem was that they quickly checked themselves and found nothing.
"There are no signs of poisoning."
"Lanzhu-kun, what are you doing?"
"Ji Changsheng, what do you want to do?"
Wan Rusong and the other three were ready to take action.
But no one took the first step.
They are still confused.
The main reason is that they can't figure it out. Even if this is really a trap, the four of them joining forces will definitely be able to defeat Ji Changsheng, Lan Zhujun and Ren Suqiong.
I have the advantage. What can the other party use to frame me? Just rely on their mouth? Ji Changsheng did not intend to explain it to them.
He just nodded to Lan Zhujun and praised: "Well done, next time I will reward you by letting you wash my feet."
Lan Zhujun clenched her pink fist subconsciously again.
Then his face was filled with smiles again: "Thank you for the reward, Master."
The other four true disciples looked at each other.
Ren Suqiong whispered, "Changsheng, Lan Zhujun must be eager to grind you into ashes."
Ji Changsheng said calmly: "It doesn't matter. It's more comfortable to train a fierce horse. I've seen too many people who obey everything, but I don't feel anything. I think Senior Sister Wenren is also like a fierce horse, especially since she has a ghost marriage with Wan Rusong. I like the identity of an additional widow."
Ji Changsheng swore to heaven that his nature was very pure.
He just came to the Demonic Sect and had to adapt to the local customs so as not to be out of place with the demons in the Sect.
It is difficult for Ren Suqiong to comment on this.
Wen Renjiayu, who was commented on by Ji Changsheng, had a gloomy expression on his face, but chose to remain silent again.
But it was different from the silence at the cave entrance before.
The previous silence showed that he did not take Ji Changsheng seriously.
The silence now was because she took Ji Changsheng too seriously. She was not stupid and could clearly see that something was wrong.
Since Ji Changsheng can subdue Lan Zhujun, he has the power to threaten her.
Because her strength is not as good as Lan Zhujun's, and her background is actually not as strong as Lan Zhujun's.
Compared to being taken as a foot-washing maid, she could endure this kind of verbal insult.
However, Wen Renjiayu thought about it and realized that he could endure it, but Wan Rusong could not.
So Wen Renjiayu looked at Wan Rusong and said quietly, "Senior Brother Wan, are you just going to let Ji Changsheng insult your fiancée?"
Ji Changsheng was amused by Wen Renjiayu's misdirection: "It seems that Senior Sister Wenren also has the potential to return to the right path. Su Qiong, tell me in detail about Senior Sister Wenren's origins. Lan Nu, come here and massage my shoulders."
Lan Zhujun gritted her teeth, smiled, and walked behind Ji Changsheng to massage his shoulders and back.
Even though he wanted to strangle Ji Changsheng to death.
But I dare not.
The sight of Lan Zhujun swallowing her anger in silence made the four true disciples tremble in their hearts.
They still don't know exactly what happened.
But obviously, things went beyond their expectations.
Ren Suqiong was the most adaptable, and she answered whatever Ji Changsheng asked.
"The Holy Church has a long history, and many cultivation families have emerged around us. The Lou family is the most powerful, and the Wenren family is in the second tier, but their strength should not be underestimated, and their foundation and connections are beyond imagination. Changsheng, if you want to secure the position of young master, I suggest that you don't kill Wenren Renyu, but take her in as your dog."
Lan Zhujun's eyes lit up, and she served Ji Changsheng more attentively: "Master, let her serve me, and I will serve you. I came here first, Master, you have to spend a lot of money to buy horse bones, so that you can set a good example for the disciples of the Holy Church."
Ji Changsheng smiled and lay in Lan Zhujun's arms, saying calmly: "It depends on what Wen Renjiayu means. If she wakes up quickly, just recognize me as her master like you do. If she wakes up slowly, let her serve you."
Lan Zhujun didn't care that Ji Changsheng was taking advantage of her, and looked at Wen Renjiayu with hope: "Junior Sister Wenren, you must resist. Believe me, Old Demon Ji is just bluffing."
Wen Renjiayu looked at Wan Rusong again and said faintly, "Senior Brother Wan, you are a man."
