Late at night, candlelight illuminates the darkness of the house, and the valuable clairvoyant light array plate lights up, projecting the back of a man in an ancient black sacrificial robe.
“Great Witch Priest.” Xuan Guang gave an odd salute to the back figure and said respectfully.
“Qing Yu fought the Blade God in the Nine Heavens and Conference, he was not badly injured, but he should have gained something, and he should be attending to the gains from this battle for some time recently.”
The Great Witch Priest still turned his back on Xuan Guang and faintly spoke words that were extremely frightening for those in the Nine Heavens.
He, to his surprise, knew what had happened in the Nine Heavens Conference!
“The spies I left behind in the True Martial Sect reported that Qing Yu had indeed closed down yesterday, and all the affairs in the True Martial Sect were left to Xuan Zhen to preside over.” Xuan Guang said.
Although he had left the True Martial Sect more than ten years ago, his spies still remained in the Sect. Although he could not hear any confidential information, he could still keep abreast of the news of the True Martial Sect.
Then, Xuan Guang said, “During this period of time, the Daoist Sect and the Buddhist Sect have clashed a lot, but they have been kept within certain limits. He wants to demand stability, at least for now, he doesn’t have the time to deal with the affairs of the Daoist Sect.
Now that Qing Yu is in seclusion, I can also step in.”
Since his narrow escape from Qing Yu’s men last time, Xuan Guang really did not dare to appear in front of Qing Yu again, especially at this time when Qing Yu had become the supreme power.
In his life, if there was anything he regretted the most, it was not killing Qing Yu back in Yangcheng. That was the most vulnerable period for Qing Yu, and after that period, Qing Yu, who knew the way to protect his life, had meticulously kept to himself and would never show his face when his safety was unknown.
Anyway, Xuan Guang was really afraid of Qing Yu, and he would never dare to face him again.
“Well,” said the Great Witch Priest, nodding gently, “I’ll leave it to you to stir up strife in the Buddhist path. Qing Yu’s retreat is a good time to make sure that the hatred between Buddhism and Daoism is intensified before he comes out of retreat.”
“I understand.” Xuan Guang returned.
————————
The next day, in the Taiji Hall of the True Martial Gate.
Xuan Zhen stood in the centre of the head of the hall, looking at the disciples in the hall who were half kneeling on the ground, his soft voice carried a hint of cold killing intent, “Has Xuan Guang already known about the news of the Sect Leader’s retreat?”
“Yes, my disciple has already pa*sed the news of the Sect Leader’s retreat to Xuan Guang yesterday, and he instructed my disciple to keep an eye on the movements in the sect, and to inform him immediately if there are any movements in the sect.” That disciple bowed his head and replied respectfully.
This disciple was none other than Xuan Guang’s spy, or one of his spies, who had been placed in the True Martial Sect.
Only at this time, while he was Xuan Guang’s spy, he was also someone loyal to Qing Yu, the so-called double agent.
The fact that Xuan Guang had kept a spy in the True Martial Sect was something that Qing Yu had naturally thought about, even Xuan Chen, who had thought about it before.
Back when Xuan Chen was still alive, he had cleared the area several times and found a number of spies. However, Xuan Guang was once a member of the True Martial Sect and was extremely familiar with the sect, so the scouts he left behind were not easy to catch and difficult to catch.
So after all, there were still a few fish left behind.
But when Qing Yu came to power, the situation was different. All the spies were found by Qing Yu and were brainwashed into double agents to serve Qing Yu.
“According to current information, it seems that the Southern Witch Tribe is trying to stir up strife between Buddhism and Taoism. Xuan Guang was once a member of my True Martial Sect and is proficient in the Four Elephants of the True Martial Sect. If he wants to stir up strife, framing tactics are the preferred choice.”
Xuan Feng said from the sidelines.
Using martial arts to frame the True Martial Sect, this tactic seemed a little rough, but it was practical. Especially in the current situation, the relationship between the two sects of Buddhism and Daoism was like an explosive barrel that would blow up at the slightest point.
And if Xuan Guang, a Tong Shen realm, really wanted to a*sa*sinate other low realm martial artists, he wouldn’t be able to defend himself.
“What should we do? If we really want to start a big war, I’m afraid that Sect Leader’s retreat will have to be abandoned halfway.” Xuan Feng said with some concern.
“All hands, secretly keep an eye on the Buddha Sect. Once you find any trace of Xuan Guang, surround him directly with all your might and make him pay the price for his betrayal.
As for the Buddha Sect’s side ——”
Xuan Zhen said coldly, “Someone will take care of it.”
“Xuan Guang wants to intensify the hatred, then as long as there is a force that kills more fiercely and sharply to make the Buddhists hate each other more, there will be no need to worry about a great war starting between Buddhism and Taoism.”
The cold words were filled with cold killing intent, Xuan Guang jumping out at this time to do bad things was completely inspiring the True Martial Sect’s anger, and this time, he would not be given the chance to escape with his life.
————————
Meanwhile, on the Northern Zhou side, a disguised Yun Zheng approached the Yin Devil Sect.
Inside the Immortal Pavilion, Yun Zheng marched into the main hall of the lobby and, under the gaze of several senior members of the Yin Devil Sect, presented a black sunken wooden box with both hands.
“The gift from the Daoist Monarch is in this box.”
This wooden box seemed to contain something extremely important, and even a cold and hard man like Yin Tianxia showed a trace of eagerness as he raised his hand to take the box into his hand.
When he opened the wooden box, a cold air seeped out of it, and what he saw was a crystal bottle, through which he could see an unknown liquid of dark gold.
“Is this —— the demon source blood that Qing Yu spoke of?” Ye Lingxiang peeked over, with a hint of inquisitive eyes, staring at the bottle.
Several senior members of the Yin Devil Sect, Yin Tiandi, Ye Lingshuang, Yue Zhaohua, and Young Patriarch Yun Wuyue had gathered together, and what they were after was naturally not Yun Zheng, the delivery man.
What they were waiting for was this source blood that could transform a demon body.
“The source blood has been personally processed by the Daoist Monarch, and with this transformation of the demon body, the practitioner will not be affected by the will of the Daoist Monarch. Patriarch Yin can also test a thing or two to see if what the poor dao says is true.” Yun Zheng said.
The so-called source blood was refined from Qing Yu’s holy demon essence blood, and naturally, one could transform the demon body with the help of this blood. But unlike the devil blood given directly by Qing Yu, this processed source blood would not affect the user’s mind.
In the battle of the gra*sland, the devils had already proved the strength of the devil’s body. And for Xiao Qiye to be able to accumulate enough reserves so quickly to impact the Tong Shen, the devil body also played a large part.
It would be false to say that the devil clan was not moved by such a practical and powerful method.
But the effect of demon blood on the mind was something that could not be ignored. If he were to really use the devil blood given by Qing Yu directly, with his realm, as long as he was not a supreme power, he would basically be affected to some extent.
People in the devil’s clan were moved to the devil’s body, but not yet moved to the point of devoting their loyalty.
So, there was the matter of Yun Zheng’s gift today.
“I will check it out,” said Yin Tian Tian as he closed the wooden box, “and after I confirm that the source blood is true, what I promised Qing Yu, the Demon Sect will proceed immediately.”
