The fire inside the cave slowly goes out and the light from the sky outside faintly penetrates the cave, bringing a hint of light.
A night has pa*sed.
On this reunion night of the 15th of August, Qing Yu accompanied an unconscious and beautiful girl plus three corpses and spent the night with his eyes closed in martial arts study.
“Almost done.”
Qing Yu stood up, his true qi lifted up the unconscious Ling Yanshui and walked out of the cave.
“Coax–”
In the cave, flames burst forth, enveloping the three corpses that were nothing more than skin and bones. As always, the flames would cover up all traces of the corpses.
Qing Yu took Ling Yanshui over the mountains, pa*sing more than ten miles before finally stopping at a small lake.
The fresh breeze blew on the lake, and under the weeping willows on the shore, Yun Wuyue, dressed in white, stood in a pavilion.
“Young Palace Master of the Guang Han Immortal Palace, I have brought you.”
True Qi automatically lifted Ling Yan Shui and brought it to Yun Wu Yue.
“So, what about my request?” Qing Yu eyed this Yun Wu Yue holding Ling Yan Shui, who had lost his true qi support, and asked.
“On the ninth day of the ninth month, this Daoist Discourse meeting of the Buddha Sect will also be concerned. I should say that the Buddha Sect will also send someone there at that time, because everyone knows that the Blood Demon Sect will definitely not sit back and watch the Daoist Sect open a Daoist Discourse meeting in Jeju peacefully.”
After a pause, Yun Wuyue continued, “Before the Daoist Conference, is your chance. At that time, someone will deal with the others and help you take what you want.”
‘Before the ninth day of the ninth month?’ Qing Yu mused in his heart.
Just as Qing Yu had guessed earlier, the Daoist Conference was bound to have an unexpected ripple effect. The resurgent Blood Demon Sect was now full of unrelenting vigour, so would it allow the Daoist Sect to hold a Daoist Conference at the Taizhen Palace in Jeju? It was also in the form of a discussion on how to deal with the Devil’s Way.
This was something that not only Qing Yu could guess, but others could too.
In this way, the Buddha Sect, which is the main opponent of the Blood Demon Sect, will definitely react as well. I heard that recently the “Blood Demon Heart Transformation Technique” has reappeared, and all the monks of Jeju Guantang Temple have been enchanted by the “Blood Demon Heart Transformation Technique” and their personalities have changed drastically.
This martial art is not a brainwashing martial art, but more like a brainwashing martial art.
Instead of brainwashing someone into a loyal puppet, the “Blood Demon Heart Transformation Technique” uses blood energy to penetrate the brain and nurture the dark side of the recipient.
Those affected by the Blood Demon Mind Transformation Technique will not have their memories affected, and their martial arts skills will be enhanced as a result, but their personalities will be inclined towards madness and bloodlust.
To put it simply, if a person is forced to practise the Blood Dao martial arts, his or her true qi will be transformed into blood dao true qi. The Blood Demon Heart Transformation Technique will not be used because it requires too much blood energy and true qi. But once it is used, it is basically destined to create an additional Blood Dao master.
Moreover, past experience has proven that people from the Buddhist Sect are more susceptible to the “Blood Demon Heart Transformation Technique” than those from the Daoist Sect, so the Blood Demon Sect’s experts would generally target people from the Buddhist Sect to use the “Blood Demon Heart Transformation Technique”.
Now that the Blood Demon Sect has been found to have resurfaced, the Buddhist Sect is the one who is most anxious.
“Then let’s set it for the seventh day of the ninth month.” Qing Yu said as such.
————————
“I understand, you go down.”
Feng Jiuyu waved away the young eunuch who had come to report the situation before rubbing his brow somewhat wearily.
“Your Majesty,” Eunuch Leng said at the side, “the people of the Devil’s Path have become more and more unrestrained recently, is it necessary to send someone to warn them?”
Although there was a tacit agreement with the four sects of the Devil’s Way, the people of the Devil’s Way were most in need of people who did not follow the rules.
Recently, after having tasted certain sweetnesses, certain people could no longer restrain their desire to (prevent harmony) and frantically tried their luck at treading the edge of the line.
“There’s no need to be so formal, it would reveal our relationship with the Devil’s Path. Apart from the Yin Demon Sect, the other three sects only think that we are watching from the wall and have no ties to the Devil’s Path.
They are not aware of the cooperation involved. Besides, these days, the only one who doesn’t disregard the rules is Purgatory Peak.” Feng Jiuyu shook his head and said.
The Devil’s Sword Dao was, to put it bluntly, a group of sword madmen who pushed the limits, and what interested them was a powerful opponent, not much of a breach of imperial regulations. In fact, the Devil’s Sword Sect preferred to go to Great Qian, where there were many experts, to cause trouble.
The Desperate Life Hall and the Yin Devil Clan run two of the oldest human trades – a*sa*sins and female supporters – and although they belong to the dark side, they have their own order.
Only Purgatory Peak, a group of barbarians who sharpen their flesh, ate that which was weak and strong. The Northern Zhou court’s forbearance has caused these muscular barbarians to get a bit ahead of themselves.
“A tacit agreement with the Devil’s Way is still needed,” Feng Jiuyu said indifferently, “If you want to teach Purgatory Peak a lesson, there is no need for us to do it, just leave it to the Buddhists.”
In the past, when the Buddhists had acted too much, then they would knock the Buddhists and give them repression. Nowadays, due to the chaos in Da Qian, the Buddhist Sect’s power is mainly concentrated in Da Qian, and its power is somewhat insufficient in Northern Zhou.
If this is the case, then we should help the Buddhists and help them deal with the Devil’s Way. At the same time, it can also be used to wear down the power of the Devil’s Way.
This is the most basic tactic of an emperor’s heart to maintain balance by containing overpowering forces. Whether it was the fight against the Buddha Sect in the past or the Devil’s Path today, there was not much difference between the two for Feng Jiuyu.
“In the future, for Purgatory Peak, don’t give it convenience, but for the other three sects, it is a place of greater convenience.” Feng Jiuyu went on to say.
Pulling a group of people to fight one another would not harm the friendship between Northern Zhou and the Devil’s Dao at all, and at the same time, it would teach Purgatory Peak a lesson.
”Your Majesty’s imperial mind technique is being used more and more comfortably.” Eunuch Leng nodded secretly with some relief.
When his majesty first ascended the throne, although he had an extremely deep mind, some of his methods were still a little young. He was still extremely talented in this area, and in less than a year’s time, he had already become comfortable with these necessary tactics and mind tricks.
Although he is still not as good as the late emperor in some aspects, he can match or even surpa*s him in the future.
If ——
not trust that demon dao so much, it would be even better.
Thinking of that white-haired Daoist, Eunuch Leng also frowned slightly.
The Qingtian Supervisor Qing Yu, a Taoist priest who was called a “demonic dao” by the people of the Northern Zhou, had a little too much trust in him. No, not a little, but far beyond the limit of trust.
Eunuch Leng had followed four generations of Northern Zhou emperors, and as he had survived for nearly 300 years, his knowledge of the emperor’s mind and methods far exceeded that of most emperors.
In Eunuch Leng’s opinion, His Majesty’s trust in and respect for that Qingtian Supervisor was indeed somewhat abnormal. If that Daoist Master Qing Yu had broken through to the Tong Shen realm, His Majesty might even have directly appointed him as the State Master.
“Your Majesty, I wonder what Daoist Master Qing Yu is doing these days? I haven’t seen him enter the palace for a long time.” Eunuch Leng asked with a smile.
“He ——” Feng Jiuyu paused and said, “There is no need to care about him.”
“Yes.” Eunuch Leng buried the doubts in his heart deeper.
