Chapter 91 How can righteousness be such an inconvenient thing?

Ying Hongye was almost laughed at by Ji Changsheng.

Because Ji Changsheng's tone was very sincere.

She was so sincere that she was a little dazed. She subconsciously began to seriously consider Ji Changsheng's proposal: Become a concubine? Then she exploded.

"I can't kill you!"

Ji Changsheng let Ying Hongye's fancy punches and kicks hit him - the illusion's body.

Then he stood aside and commented: "Hongye, you are still very self-aware. You really can't kill me."

You can't even tell that you're punching the air.

She really felt sorry for me, and I cried my heart out.

Ying Hongye turned her head.

Seeing Ji Changsheng commenting on the gossip, his mentality became even more explosive.

"Ji Changsheng, stop right there."

Ji Changsheng argued: "Hongye, have you ever heard of this saying?"

"What?"

"I'd rather be a hero's concubine than a mediocre man's wife."

"No, I've only heard one other saying."

"What?"

"No man is good!"

Ji Changsheng was unhappy: "How can you say that about your father?"

Ying Hongye: "If you let me fight, I will consider becoming your concubine."

Ji Changsheng smiled: "Hongye, you think I am Li Daoyan."

Ying Hongye: “…”

"By the way, Hongye, don't you think I'm sincere?"

Ying Hongye nodded in a trance.

But a clear light flashed on his body, and Ying Hongye quickly came to his senses.

He looked at Ji Changsheng warily.

"What the hell are you doing to me?"

Ji Changsheng was a little surprised.

"Hongye, do you have a magic weapon to protect your soul?"

Ji Changsheng just tested the "Devil's Desire Sutra" on Ying Hongye, wanting to see if it would work on Ying Hongye.

Normally, if Ying Hongye has a good impression of him, then the "Devil's Desire Sutra" will magnify Ying Hongye's good impression of him.

It turns out that it did play some role.

But the princess of Ying Kingdom is a treasure.

Took the divine equipment.

No martial ethics.

Ying Hongye reacted and was a little surprised: "Changsheng, have you really practiced magic? Only the magic skills can shake other people's emotions... Wait, ordinary magic skills can't do it, only the top skills of the Hehuan Sect can do it."

When Ying Hongye said this, she looked at Ji Changsheng with a look of enlightenment: "No wonder Changsheng, you took out the handwritten letter from Saint Hehuan and framed the princess. Are you really connected with Saint Hehuan?"

Ji Changsheng was a little silent.

This girl... is a little too smart.

I miss my nephew Li Daoyan and senior brother Cao.

Ji Changsheng feels more secure when he is with them.

They believed whatever he said.

Ying Hongye is too prejudiced against him.

"You actually used the magic of the Hehuan Sect on me."

Ji Changsheng didn't expect that after Ying Hongye realized that he was in touch with the Holy Maiden Hehuan, this was the point she was most concerned about.

"Hongye, is there something wrong with where you are focusing?"

Ying Hongye was furious: "You have already used the magic of the Hehuan Sect on me, what are you still trying to argue about? Do you want to ruin my innocence?"

"Wait a minute, is the Hehuan Sect's skills so evil?"

"Why else do you think I carry a magical weapon to protect my soul?"

Ji Changsheng blinked.

He didn't feel that "The Devil's Desire Sutra" was so evil.

It's nothing more than a magic weapon to amplify the seven emotions and six desires.

"Hongye, who do you think I am? I don't even know how to practice the real Caibu Mei Gong. I just picked up a book of the top secret techniques of the Hehuan Sect."

Ying Hongye sneered and said, "You might as well say that you are practicing the Devil's Desire Sutra."

Ji Changsheng: “…”

This girl is smarter than he thought.

"You can guess this?"

Ying Hongye laughed out loud: "Changsheng, you are the most shameless person I have ever seen. In the past five hundred years of the Hehuan Sect, only the Holy Maiden of Hehuan has mastered the Devil's Desire Sutra. If you can master the Devil's Desire Sutra, you will be the next leader of the Hehuan Sect."

Ji Changsheng was startled.

The Devil's Desire Sutra is so powerful? It seems that I still haven't developed this technique to its full potential.

Last time, Ji Changsheng tried out the "Devil's Desire Sutra" and controlled the Queen Mother.

If this idea is feasible, and the "Demon Desire Sutra" is practiced to perfection, it is very likely that one will be able to control the life and death of others, including their seven emotions and six desires during their lifetime, and completely turn the other person into one's own puppet without them knowing it.

Following this line of logic, the temple master once said that Saint Hehuan is the second most powerful person in the Demon Cult, but her strength is not as good as that of Old Demon Yu. What is more powerful is her influence, connections and intelligence.

Isn’t this how Saint Hehuan got her connections?

My stepmother has used the Devil's Desire Sutra to lay many hidden plans? Ji Changsheng thought thoughtfully.

"What are you thinking about?"

"I wonder if I am a hidden chess piece controlled by Saint Hehuan using the Devil's Desire Sutra?"

"Won't."

"Why?"

"There are rules in the cultivation world, mainly set by Fairy Linglong. You can't bully the weak. Saint Hehuan is much higher than you. If she does something to you, once our Xuandu Temple finds out, the entire Hehuan Sect will suffer."

At this point, Ying Hongye analyzed emphatically, "In fact, not everyone follows this rule, but no one dares to touch the disciples of Xuandu Temple or the bigwigs of both the righteous and evil ways. Xuandu Temple's reputation as the best in the world was not earned by the righteous and evil ways, but earned through fighting."

Ji Changsheng could understand what Ying Hongye said.

When we were on Blue Star, few countries dared to kill Eagle Sauce people for no reason.

But few does not mean none.

"No exceptions?"

Ying Hongye spread his hands, "Of course there have been accidents. There are always people who don't believe in evil. There used to be a top demon sect called Ghost Domain Hall, which was once as famous as Huangquan Sect. The last Taoist of Ghost Domain Hall had evil thoughts about a female senior sister of our Xuandu Temple in a forbidden area, and eventually obtained the body of that female senior sister with a higher realm by two major realms. Ghost Domain Hall is good at controlling ghosts, and the last Taoist turned that senior sister into a ghost slave, but the death of the senior sister alarmed the top leaders of Xuandu Temple. The temple master who had not yet ascended the throne was responsible for investigating the matter, and the investigation led to Ghost Domain Hall."

Ji Changsheng asked: "What happened next?"

Ying Hongye asked back: "Changsheng, have you ever heard of the name Ghost Domain Palace?"

Ji Changsheng shook his head: "I have only heard of the Huangquan Sect."

He also killed all the direct descendants of the Huangquan Sect's founder who were left in the human world.

He also planned to grind Bai Shizhi to ashes tomorrow.

He had never heard of the Ghost Realm Palace.

Ying Hongye smiled, "You're right that you haven't heard of it, because after the temple master found out about the Ghost Domain Palace, he told Fairy Linglong. Then, led by Fairy Linglong, Xuandu Temple's apparent strength was fully deployed. Three days later, the Ghost Domain Palace was wiped out of the world. In the Ghost Domain Palace's old nest, Xuandu Temple held a grand funeral for that senior sister and invited all the high-ranking officials from both the righteous and evil paths to attend the ceremony."

Ji Changsheng was fascinated by what he heard.

No wonder he killed Bing Ziping before, but the temple master said that Old Demon Yu might not dare to retaliate against him.

Xuandu Temple actually has such a glorious history.

If only Old Demon Yu was not Old Demon Yu, but an ordinary demon, he might have really had to swallow his anger when Ji Changsheng killed his son.

After all, Xuandu Temple has a history of annihilating entire clans.

Ying Hongye also said: "From then on, no one dared to bully the weak when Xuandu Temple disciples walked around the world. Xuandu Temple would not care if they competed with people of the same realm or even got killed. However, if Xuandu Temple disciples were tricked by people of a higher realm, Ghost Domain Palace would be a lesson. Although the Hehuan Sect is strong, it is not much stronger than the Ghost Domain Palace. Unless the Hehuan Saint had done something to you before you joined Xuandu Temple, she would definitely not dare to touch you after you joined Xuandu Temple. Xuandu Temple's record is there. Among all the top sects in the world, only our Xuandu Temple has completely wiped out another top sect. The Hehuan Saint would never dare to take risks with the Hehuan Sect."

Ji Changsheng was sincerely convinced: "Once I am a disciple of Xuandu Temple, I will be a disciple of Xuandu Temple for my whole life. I will always accept the leadership of Fairy Linglong, loyally support the senior management of Xuandu Temple headed by Fairy Linglong and the temple master, and dedicate everything I have to the development of Xuandu Temple."

Ying Hongye laughed out loud at Ji Changsheng's teasing: "Changsheng, why are you pretending in front of me? I'm not a high-ranking official at Xuandu Temple. Besides, I've been sent to Danqing Pavilion for exchanges."

"Yes." Ji Changsheng was a little surprised: "Hongye, since Xuandu Temple is so strong, why do you still want to go to Danqing Pavilion? Isn't this a loss?"

Ying Hongye shook his head: "You may make a lot of money, but we, the Ying family, will never lose money."

Ji Changsheng was an honest child, so he stabbed him directly with his knife: "Emperor Ying has failed, isn't that a loss?"

Ying Hongye's face flushed, "How can our ancestors fail? That was a strategic retreat. For the sake of the people of the world and world peace, our ancestors laid down their weapons and did not force people to suffer. Our ancestors did not fail."

"Okay, you win. I'll pretend to believe it. Hongye, go on. Why didn't you lose by going to Danqing Pavilion?"

Ying Hongye was so angry that his liver ached.

"The Ying family must always win and cannot accept the word lose. How can I win you if I stay in Xuandu Temple? Xuandu Temple is good, but it is not suitable for me after all. Besides, I am just going to Danqing Pavilion for exchanges, and it does not mean that I will not return to Xuandu Temple."

Ji Changsheng nodded: "But even if you go to Danqing Pavilion, it seems that you can't be the first. There is already a person who is the first in Jindan in Danqing Pavilion."

Ying Hongye kicked him out.

"If you can't speak, just shut up."

Doesn't she want to save face? "Okay, Hongye, one last question."

"If you have something to say, say it now. If you have to fart, fart now."

"Do you mind being a concubine?" Ji Changsheng said seriously, "As long as you are willing, I am willing too."

Ji Changsheng’s approach to life is to treat people with sincerity in return for their true love.

The night wind blows.

The world is quiet.

After a moment.

A murderous aura rose up in the Xuandu Temple office.

"Ahhh, Ji Changsheng, I must fight you to the death!"

"It's a deal. Let's fight for a life first. Hongye, you must keep your word."

“…”

"Ji Changsheng, I swear, I will kill you!!!"

…

Of course Ji Changsheng would not be killed.

But the Du family saw blood today.

A rare wonder of a prosperous country.

Although the Du family was not as powerful as the Bai family in Sheng Country, it was definitely one of the top aristocratic families.

And now, the Du family is more powerful than the Bai family.

After Bai Shizhi's death, the Bai family was quickly suppressed by Xuandu Temple, but due to time constraints, it had not been completely wiped out.

What Ji Changsheng didn't know was that half of the Bai family's assets in Sheng Country had been swallowed up by the Du family.

With the support of Du Zongsheng, the number one golden elixir master and the "crown prince" of Danqing Pavilion in everyone's mind, the Du family's position in Sheng State is as stable as Mount Tai.

Du Zongjiang never thought that he would be threatened with death when he was in Sheng Kingdom.

What he didn't expect was that this death threat actually came from someone he knew.

"Cao Ziming, are you crazy? I am Du Zongjiang."

Du Zongjiang is the outer sect elder of Danqing Pavilion.

In terms of status, he is naturally not as good as an inner disciple like Cao Ziming, but because of Du Zongsheng's relationship, Du Zongjiang and many geniuses including the big guys of Danqing Pavilion are familiar faces.

There was still a seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister, not to mention that Du Zongjiang was not the prime minister's steward, but Du Zongsheng's younger brother.

In Danqing Pavilion, Cao Ziming met Du Zongjiang and treated him with courtesy.

Du Zongjiang never expected that Cao Ziming would point a sword at him.

Moreover, he exuded an undisguised murderous aura, which made him feel the crisis of death.

He knew Cao Ziming.

Once Cao Ziming becomes stubborn, he really dares to kill people.

The disciples of Danqing Pavilion are probably the practitioners who are least afraid of power in the cultivation world. Du Zongsheng can scare many people, but he certainly can't scare a swordsman like Cao Ziming who has forged a loyal heart.

But Du Zongjiang still didn't understand.

"Brother, is there any misunderstanding?"

Du Zongjiang took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

We still have to negotiate peace.

After all, Du Zongsheng is not here.

Moreover, Du Zongsheng and Cao Ziming have a good relationship in the cabinet, and Cao Ziming's talents and means do not pose a threat to Du Zongsheng.

In everyone's estimation, Cao Ziming should become a capable general under Du Zongsheng in the future.

He couldn't break an arm for his brother.

"Junior brother, has anyone in the Du family committed a crime? Tell me and I will help you find them."

Cao Ziming looked at Du Zongjiang and sneered, "Who do you think you are? Are you worthy of calling me your junior brother?"

Du Zongjiang: “…”

His face gradually turned red.

Cao Ziming is Du Zongsheng's junior fellow apprentice, this is for sure.

But he is an outer sect elder.

Cao Ziming is from the inner sect and is now at the peak of the Golden Core realm. Once he breaks through the Nascent Soul realm, he can basically reserve the true teachings.

The outer sect elders really can’t get the inner sect disciples to do anything, let alone the true teachings.

Cao Ziming had given face to Du Zongsheng before, so he was willing to give him face and support Du Zongjiang.

Now Cao Ziming doesn't even want to give face to Du Zongsheng, so naturally he won't give face to Du Zongjiang either.

"How dare you speak to the young master like that."

A loyal servant of the Du family jumped out.

"Do you know the background of our Du family? How dare you cause trouble for our Du family? You must be tired of living. And you, Xiao Weizi, you have grown wings and dared to bring people to our Du family."

The loyal servant looked at Wei Zhongxian and sneered.

It is obvious that the Du family's power before Shengguo was enormous.

He didn't take the eunuchs in the imperial palace seriously at all.

But think about how the Du family was able to suppress Zhuo Fanghua’s death.

It allowed the Six Gates to help Du Zongjiang pick it out so clearly.

It can monopolize Danqing Pavilion’s blessed land business in Sheng Country.

The Du family does have this power.

In addition, Du Zongsheng has a special status.

Cao Ziming looked at Wei Zhongxian.

"What does this guy mean?"

Wei Zhongxian glanced at the loyal servant and reported in a low voice: "Mr. Cao, on the night Zhuo Fanghua died, this man was guarding outside the door. No less than ten people died at his hands. But due to the background of the Du family, no one dared to touch him."

"Is there any evidence?"

Senior Brother Cao is still too polite.

If Ji Changsheng were here, there would be no need to ask Wei Zhongxian. From the moment this loyal servant jumped out to show off his skills, he was a dead man.

Cao Ziming still needs to see the evidence.

Fortunately, Wei Zhongxian really had evidence.

The reason why many criminals are at large is never because of a lack of evidence.

It is because their power can suppress the evidence.

When greater power or force appears, these people are immediately finished.

Cao Ziming saw the ironclad evidence that Wei Zhongxian had produced, and then glanced at this loyal servant. He thought of what Ji Changsheng had told him before he left Baohe Hall:

"If the Du family members dare to resist, they will be killed without mercy. If the Du family members do not resist... you can also kill the person in charge of Danqing Fudi to establish your authority. Believe me, it will be very helpful for you to cultivate your righteousness."

Of course Cao Ziming believed in Ji Changsheng.

This loyal servant indeed disgusted him.

Thinking of this, Cao Ziming's sword mind became clear, and he no longer hesitated, and swung his sword out.

The sword shines fiercely.

The next moment, the loyal servant's head fell to the ground.

Cao Ziming only felt that his thoughts were clear, his sword heart became clearer, and he felt a sense of satisfaction from his chest to his whole body.

What Junior Brother Ji said was indeed right.

Killing a few more "evil cult monsters" will be very helpful for me to cultivate my righteous spirit.

Thinking of this, Cao Ziming looked at Du Zongjiang.

"Du Zongjiang, your story has been exposed, come with us. If you dare to resist..."

Cao Ziming raised the sword in his hand.

"Kill without mercy!"

Du Zongjiang was stunned.

"Cao Ziming, are you really crazy?"

When he was in Danqing Pavilion, he had never seen Cao Ziming like this.

How can you be so unreasonable?

"What on earth happened?"

Cao Ziming said coldly: "Do you still remember the name Zhuo Fanghua?"

It’s not easy to search for Danqing Fudi right away.

Moreover, Danqing Blessed Land is different from Taiping Blessed Land.

Sheng Taiping is a piece of shit. He is doing something shameless with the house that has already been sold.

Although the way Fudi's business is done is ugly, Sheng Taiping is the type who would force others to overturn the table and rebel.

Danqing Fudi is not that exaggerated.

At least after Danqing Fudi is sold, the money and goods are settled and there will be no "after-sales" service.

On the surface, there seems to be no problem with a transaction where both parties are willing.

But there is something very problematic about Zhuo Fanghua’s case.

It is entirely possible to follow the vines and pull out the radish and bring out the mud.

Sure enough, when he heard the name "Zhuo Fanghua", Du Zongjiang's face changed suddenly.

"How do you know this person?"

Cao Ziming said coldly: "Don't worry about how I know this, Du Zongjiang, come with me and help me investigate the matter. Otherwise, Du Zongsheng can't save you."

Cao Ziming no longer calls Du Zongsheng his senior brother.

He is just simple, not stupid.

Two years have passed, and Zhuo Fanghua's death was unclear, with no follow-up explanation.

Logically, Du Zongsheng could certainly not know all this.

But it took two years.

Cao Ziming was unwilling to believe that Du Zongsheng really didn't know.

At least before he found out the truth, Du Zongsheng's idol status in his heart had collapsed.

Now Senior Brother Cao’s new idol is Ji Changsheng.

Climb the wall successfully.

Then stop being a fan and turn against them.

"If you are innocent, I will clear your name. If you really did something shameful like that, I will clean up the mess on behalf of Danqing Pavilion. The sky is clear, and we will not allow scum like you to go unpunished."

Cao Ziming shouted angrily, "Why don't you surrender?"

Du Zongjiang slowly exhaled a breath of foul air and gradually regained his senses.

He looked at Cao Ziming deeply, and in front of Cao Ziming, he sent a message to Du Zongsheng using a sound transmission note: "Brother, Cao Ziming wants to kill me for unfounded reasons."

Wei Zhongxian looked at Cao Ziming.

Cao Ziming did not stop him and just looked at Du Zongjiang coldly the whole time.

He also wanted to know whether Du Zongsheng knew all this, and what he would do after knowing all this.

If you want to sacrifice your own relatives for the sake of justice, then that is naturally good.

If you want to cover up for your younger brother, Junior Brother Ji is not joking.

Junior Brother Ji and Patriarch Li have joined forces, and the burial place of the next successor of Danqing Pavilion is probably Sheng Country.

But Cao Ziming didn't want to stop him.

If Du Zongsheng really abused his power for personal gain and bent the law, how could such a person be qualified to lead Danqing Pavilion?

"Cao Ziming, are you trying to use me to shake my brother's position as a Daoist?" Du Zongjiang suddenly said, "You are trying to seize power, right? I didn't realize you had such a plan when we were in Danqing Pavilion."

Cao Ziming sneered disdainfully: "You judge others by who you are, and a summer insect cannot talk about ice."

"You know exactly why you did this. As for Zhuo Fanghua's matter, the Six Gates of Sheng State had already investigated it two years ago. There are witnesses and evidence. What is there to investigate?"

After a pause, Du Zongjiang said sarcastically, "Let's take a step back. Even if I really have a problem, you want to arrest me with this group of people? Cao Ziming, don't forget that I am an outer sect elder of Danqing Pavilion. How can a cultivator be interrogated by mortals? Do they have the qualifications to arrest me?"

The "Xianmen Convention" not only protects ordinary people, but naturally also has a part that protects practitioners.

After all, cultivators are the most powerful force in the world. How could they betray their own interests when they make rules? When cultivators commit crimes in the mortal world, the human dynasty has no power to enforce the law, so they can only hand it over to the sect behind them for trial.

Therefore, it is reasonable for Du Zongjiang to be fearless.

Cao Ziming had never committed a crime before, so he was not aware of this rule.

Ji Changsheng never followed the rules, so he didn't care about this at all.

After Du Zongjiang revealed the truth, Cao Ziming finally understood.

"Master Wei, what can we do to catch him?"

Wei Zhongxian reminded him in a low voice: "He resisted arrest and injured others, and he resisted the court's law enforcement. We can temporarily detain him. As long as he was the first to attack, we are right."

It is true that the "Xianmen Convention" protects practitioners, but the premise is that practitioners cannot take action against human dynasties at will.

Cao Ziming reacted.

He glanced at Du Zongjiang.

I thought about what Junior Brother Ji would do in this situation.

Afterwards, Cao Ziming resolutely struck himself with a sword.

Before Du Zongjiang could react, Cao Ziming vomited blood and roared: "Du Zongjiang, you attacked your fellow disciples, defied the imperial court's law enforcement, and violated the "Immortal Sect Convention". Lord Wei, capture this beast. If the Du family resists, kill them without mercy!"

Du Zongjiang was stunned and furious, shaking with anger: "Cao Ziming, are you worthy of cultivating the righteousness? Aren't you afraid of being attacked by the righteousness by your behavior?"

Cao Ziming sneered, and his righteous energy soared into the sky, illuminating the entire dark night sky.

"How can the noble and righteous spirit be such an inconvenient thing?"
