Chapter 502: Xuanming Sect (Added for "Lu Chen Lu Chen who likes diamond wood")
Jing Zhui took down the heavy sword that was pressing on the matchmaker's neck and looked at her inquiringly.
The matchmaker said, "Look at my attire, and you'll know my sideline is as a professional matchmaker. I can help you find your mistress."
Jing Zhui said: "No need, she will definitely marry me."
"Really? Then why didn't you bring her home to meet the elders this time? She didn't want to come." The matchmaker saw through everything. "You killed her husband, and she resents you."
Jing Zhui remained silent, and the matchmaker further broke through his defenses. "You might be thinking that you can just snatch her away. But you know your mistress's character. If she doesn't want to, no one can force her to do anything."
Jing Zhui admitted: "Yeah."
He asked, "Can you convince her to marry me?"
The matchmaker quickly assured, "No problem."
She took out the incense burner and said, "As long as you talk to the incense god..."
Before she could finish her words, she was split into two by Jing Zhui and fell straight to the ground. Jing Zhui snatched the magic weapon from her hand.
The Taotie beast was both angry and afraid, cursing furiously in its heart. The two bodies of the matchmaker stubbornly merged into one, and she climbed up from the ground with disheveled hair. "This magic weapon was refined from my demon pill, and only the master can use it."
Jing Zhui's fingers brushed over the activation runes on the surface of the incense burner and began to decipher them. "Not necessarily."
Despicable and shameless.
The matchmaker was helpless and furious. "So what if you can use it? This stove is a magical tool based on rules. You must pay a corresponding price to make your wish come true."
"It is true." After Jing Zhui confirmed it, he threw the incense burner back to the matchmaker without interest, as if he was throwing away a useless piece of garbage, which deeply hurt the matchmaker's self-esteem.
The matchmaker took the stove back, held it preciously in her arms, and breathed on it while wiping off the dust with the hem of her clothes. Suddenly, she became afraid. If Jing Zhui had crushed the demon pill directly, wouldn't she have died immediately?
After all, Jing Zhui acted as if he didn't care much, but deep down he still wanted to keep her to help him find a match.
The matchmaker understood Jing Zhui's heart and immediately became arrogant again.
"I think it would be better if you were to show some respect to me. I am your marriage messenger."
"Let me tell you the truth, I don't just do business with you."
"Your master is not dead. His Nascent Soul has transformed into a new body. Although he has lost his status and identity, he plans to find his wife again and has asked me to act as a matchmaker."
After the matchmaker finished speaking, she observed Jing Zhui and saw that his expression was still indifferent, but his fists were clenched at his sides.
"Master is still alive?"
"Yes. A living person cannot rob a dead person. Moreover, this dead Bai Yueguang has been resurrected. The joy of regaining what was lost is so great. Your master and your mistress may even love each other even more."
The matchmaker handed a stick of incense to Jing Zhui.
"You don't have much time left. What do you think? Do you want to become a real couple with your master's wife before your master does?"
Jing Zhui finally took the incense.
"Let her marry me willingly?"
"Oh my Lord Demon God, I've told you so many times that the Furnace God will make your wish come true," the matchmaker said with a cunning smile. "As a reward, I only want half of your cultivation."
"Half of your cultivation?" Jing Zhui sneered and neatly inserted the incense into the incense burner. "Deal."
If you lose your cultivation, you can still cultivate it back again, but there is only one Ye Xiaoman. If you lose her, you will never have her again in this life.
He can tell what is important and what is not.
From then on, the Taotie beast obtained half of the demon god's cultivation and became invincible in the world!
Demonic Realm.
Xuanming Sect.
Countless flying boats took off and landed on the sect’s landing platform.
The flying boats of the demon clan, after nearly a thousand years of modifications by the demon clan weapon refiners, have developed into something completely different from those on other continents.
It is not activated by array stones or talismans, but the people or monsters are kept in a half-dead state and integrated with the flying boat. Normally, the journey is made by human power and monsters. It can enslave others for fun and intimidate the enemy, and it can also save energy to the greatest extent. After all, the demons have been engaged in war for many years and are not rich.
They are often accused by humans of being "too cruel" and "inhumane".
The newly promoted inner disciple Cang Lie jumped off the flying boat after it came to a steady stop.
The four phoenixes that were carrying the flying boat were covered in wounds, half of their scales and feathers had fallen off, and they fell to the ground in exhaustion.
After Cang Lie got off the flying boat, the other demons who were on the mission with him landed on the ground one after another.
The demons were clearly a group, having just completed a dangerous mission together and were returning to the sect. However, after getting off the flying boat, they dispersed in all directions silently without a word of hello.
This is the atmosphere of the demon clan, which is very different from the love and harmony in the human world.
The disciples would not talk to each other unless necessary. There was a tense and vigilant atmosphere among them. They looked around with calculating eyes, as if it was normal for someone to suddenly stab someone else with a sword.
Cang Lie didn't need to look back to feel that his fellow disciples behind him were staring at him with hatred for a long time before leaving.
It’s not their fault. After all, all the treasures they fought so hard to obtain in the underground secret realm were snatched away by him.
The strong can do whatever they want, and the weak should accept reality as soon as possible.
Cang Lie seemed to be walking back to his cave with ease, but in fact he was holding an attack talisman under his sleeve.
He can rob weak fellow disciples, and other powerful senior sisters and brothers can also rob him on the road.
Although he has become a disciple of Elder Youman, ordinary disciples would not be so blind.
It’s better to be cautious.
Passing by a pavilion, a group of disciples gathered inside to chat.
Cang Lie caught a glimpse of one or two familiar faces inside. He had done all sorts of bad things and suspected that they might be planning to murder him, so he injected his ears with the supernatural power of hearing and eavesdropped on their conversation.
"The day of the Six Realms Contest is getting closer and closer."
"All sects are making intensive preparations."
"I heard from my uncle that our Xuanming Sect has already selected ten seeded players."
"Haha, Junior Brother, according to my inside information, our sect will hold a competition to select the geniuses for the competition, rather than relying on internal recommendations. You deliberately revealed the so-called internal list. Are you trying to make the people on the list vulnerable to attacks and plots?"
"Hey, what good will it do me if I do something so immoral?"
"If someone is assassinated and dies, leaving a vacant spot on the list, wouldn't that be your chance?"
"The Six Realms Tournament offers generous rewards and fame, so everyone wants to go. I understand your ill intentions, Junior Brother. Can you please tell me the list?"
Cang Lie stopped to listen and heard his name.
His fellow disciples listed several of his great achievements, and the corners of his mouth curled up as he listened.
"Why do you all think that our Xuanming Sect can win the championship this year? In front of Ye Xiaoman in the human world, Zhang Lie and Cang Lie pale in comparison!"
Cang Lie stepped forward and flew to the pavilion. "Who is Ye Xiaoman?"
"Senior Brother Cang."
When everyone saw Cang Lie coming, they were afraid of his bad reputation and the atmosphere of gossiping disappeared.
Cang Lie interrogated: "Who is Ye Xiaoman?"
Someone replied: "Senior Brother Cang has been in a secret realm and isolated from the world for the past two years, so I haven't heard of him. Ye Xiaoman is a recent celebrity in the cultivation world. She is a female cultivator from the mortal world, born in the Qingzheng Sect, and the master of the Nameless Sword."
Cang Lie wrote down the name: "Is she very powerful?"
"Amazing, incredibly awesome!"
Ye Xiaoman didn't know that the rumors about her were becoming more and more outrageous day by day.
Even the demons in distant regions regard her as a competitor on the road to growth.
"I heard that she reached the Great Perfection of the Qi Refining Stage within three months of drawing Qi into her body. In less than half a year, she's already in the middle stage of the Foundation Establishment Stage and is already striving for the Golden Core Stage!"
Seeing that Cang Lie looked unhappy, everyone immediately changed the subject.
"But I heard that she has recently fallen into the ghost world. I'm afraid she will perish."
"Yes, the Konghou Patriarch asked a disciple of the Divine Calculation Sect to deduce a fortune. He said that Ye Xiaoman is a short-lived person and will face a great disaster in the near future. There is a 90% chance that she will not survive."
"oh?"
"The hexagram says 'fall into the mouth of a beast.'"
"Wow."
Suddenly, someone shouted Cang Lie on the mountain road below the pavilion.
"Junior Brother Cang, Senior Uncle Youman asked you to go to the Demon Valley."
Cang Lie flashed and landed in front of the messenger. Standing two steps away, he asked cautiously, "Where is Master's token?"
It is not uncommon for senior brothers and sisters to falsely convey instructions and lure rising talents to remote places and kill them.
Cang Lie repeatedly confirmed that the token was correct before heading to the Demon Valley.
There is a Demon God Temple in the Demon God Valley, which houses a statue of the Demon God Jing Zhui.
Life-size, standing, with silver hair, a ferocious ghost face, dark black armor, and a hand on a heavy sword, he looks so majestic and awe-inspiring, his demeanor is so grand that even demons dare not look directly at him.
Elder Youman was offering sacrifices to the demon god. When he saw Canglie come in, he waved at him.
"Come here and kowtow to the demon."
"The demon will give you unlimited power."
Cang Lie immediately knelt down and kowtowed three times respectfully.
When he was burning incense, he glanced at the statue of the demon and was stunned.
Two years after leaving Xuanming Sect, the statue of the Demon God has changed.
It seems like he's coming back to life?
