“Is this the Seek Tao Sect?” Qin Yanyan stood in front of the gate of the Seek Tao Sect, expressing her astonishment.
As one of the five major immortal sects, the Seek Tao Sect was extremely active in the cultivation world. Even Qin Yanyan, a cultivator who rarely left home, had heard of the sect’s reputation and heroic deeds. They vanquished demons and defended justice, and these actions were enough to demonstrate the strength of the Seek Tao Sect.
Even her mother, Su Yiren, couldn’t stop praising the strength of the Seek Tao Sect, saying that it might be the strongest among the five major immortal sects.
After passing through the sect’s protective array, she could clearly feel the difference between this place and the outside world. The temperature and humidity were artificially controlled to the most suitable levels, and the concentration of spiritual energy had significantly increased, almost comparable to her own home.
You should know that only she and her mother, Su Yiren, lived in their home.
Su Yiren, as a powerful cultivator at the Body Fusion stage, could only increase the spiritual energy concentration of a mountain to this level.
But the Seek Tao Sect, covering a hundred thousand miles, had a spiritual energy concentration almost the same as her home, which was terrifying.
“Is this the foundation of twelve thousand years?”
As three men and a woman entered the gate and passed through a bamboo forest, the babbling river flowing through the forest rippled, and a River Spirit formed on the surging river.
“Halt, Lu Yang, Meng Jingzhou, who are you bringing into the Seek Tao Sect?”
The River Spirit, holding a pair of gold and silver axes, stared at Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou with a displeased expression.
The River Spirit was the defense line of the Seek Tao Sect, preventing the entry of petty individuals.
When the two vice-leaders of the Immortal Sect entered the Seek Tao Sect, the River Spirit did not stop them because Yun Zhi had secretly instructed him not to interfere.
Otherwise, even with Lu Yang leading them, the two vice-leaders of the Immortal Sect wouldn’t have been able to enter the gate.
“This is Qin Yanyan, a relative of Junior Brother Li,” Lu Yang introduced generously.
“A relative?” The River Spirit looked suspiciously at Qin Yanyan, whose cheeks were slightly red, and then at Li Haoran, who looked strange.
“I have information on all the disciples of the Seek Tao Sect. How come I’ve never heard that Li Haoran has a relative named Qin Yanyan?”
Li Haoran thought to himself, I didn’t know either two months ago.
Lu Yang simply explained, “You should know that Junior Brother Li has a fiancée.”
The River Spirit nodded.
“The daughter of Junior Brother Li’s fiancée is Qin Yanyan.”
The River Spirit: “!”
When Meng Jingzhou heard the River Spirit say that he had information on all the disciples of the Seek Tao Sect, his eyes lit up. Without thinking, he blurted out, “Then you must know the age of the senior sister…”
Lu Yang suddenly felt a sense of danger, reacted swiftly, and kicked Meng Jingzhou away, interrupting his question.
If you want to die, don’t drag everyone down with you!
“Li Haoran, is he telling the truth?” Considering his experience, the River Spirit couldn’t fully trust Lu Yang’s words.
Li Haoran hesitated and nodded, “It’s true.”
The River Spirit showed respect to Li Haoran and let the four of them pass.
“Go in. You know the rules of the sect. You can’t enter certain places without permission.”
The first place the four of them arrived at was the mission hall.
After all, their initial purpose of leaving the sect was to complete a mission.
Although they had experienced some changes, they had ultimately completed the mission.
“Dear niece, wait at the door. The mission hall is special. Without the permission of the elders, you can’t enter,” Lu Yang said apologetically to Qin Yanyan.
Qin Yanyan waited at the entrance of the mission hall. She was a new face, and the disciples passing by would unconsciously glance at her. She was naturally shy and couldn’t stand this kind of torture. Her toes were almost digging holes.
Suddenly, two figures caught Qin Yanyan’s attention.
“I heard from Senior River Spirit that Brother Lu is in the mission hall. Let’s go and ask him for some guidance!”
“Sister Tao, there’s no need to rush. If we wait at the entrance of Tianmen Peak, we’ll eventually run into Brother Lu.”
A man and a woman were talking and walking towards the mission hall.
“Huh, a new face.” The woman noticed Qin Yanyan, who was awkwardly not knowing where to put her hands and feet, and greeted her warmly.
“My name is Tao Yaoye, and this is Man Gu. Who are you?”
…
“Senior Brother, we’re here to report on the mission,” Lu Yang said to the senior brother on duty at the front desk.
“The mission of the female ghost in Guhuai Town, right? Please wait.” Behind the senior brother were piles of files. He turned around and skillfully pulled out a thin file from the bottom.
Strangely, even though he pulled out the file from the bottom, the mountain-like files on top were not affected at all, not moving in the slightest.
Lu Yang noticed keenly that these files were not stacked one on top of the other, but were floating in the air. They just looked like they were piled together because they were so close.
Lu Yang handed over the process of the event, the proof provided by Mayor Fan, and the proof of the harmlessness of the female ghost.
The senior brother who had been on duty at the front desk of the mission hall for a long time had seen a lot and knew a lot. Although using a female ghost as a gimmick to boost the local economy sounded outrageous, according to what he knew, what Mayor Fan did was not the first case.
However, such things could not be widely publicized, so they were rarely known.
“Junior Brother Lu, your request in the report for the three female ghosts to be registered with the Seek Tao Sect will be followed up by someone for an on-site inspection.”
The Seek Tao Sect vanquished demons, but they didn’t kill all monsters and ghosts. For those that didn’t harm people, the Seek Tao Sect would register them after ensuring they had no history or danger of harming people, to prevent them from being harmed by some righteous cultivators who couldn’t distinguish right from wrong.
If a righteous cultivator insisted on getting rid of the three ghosts, they only needed to show the registration certificate from the Seek Tao Sect, and the other party would know better and back off.
“You also said in the report that the three female ghosts were absorbing yang energy under someone’s instruction. What’s going on?”
“This matter involves the Demon Sect. I need to report to Senior Brother Dai,” Lu Yang said seriously.
“Wait a moment, then I’ll report it.”
“Lu Yang and the others want to report to me again?” At this time, Dai Bufan was shrunken and wrapped in a giant water ball. In the water ball, there were not only Dai Bufan, but also sharks, whales, octopuses, and other monsters, baring their fangs and staring at Dai Bufan.Upon hearing that Lu Yang wanted to see him, he detached himself from the water sphere, his body returning to its original size. He opened his mouth and swallowed the water sphere along with the ferocious beasts inside.
This was one of his combat methods, capable of dragging enemies into the water sphere and letting the beasts within tear the enemy’s body apart.
“Let them in.”
Dai Bufan pondered. This time, besides Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou, there was also Li Haoran. Could it be that this situation was related to the Jiuyou Sect?
“Why is it that every time these two undertake a mission, it’s related to the demonic sect?” Dai Bufan was puzzled, suspecting that birds of a feather flock together, and Lu Yang and his companion were mutually attracted to the demonic sect.
However, no matter what situation Lu Yang reported this time, he wouldn’t be surprised.
What could it be? At most, they had successfully joined the Jiuyou Sect.
The trio, Lu Yang, found Dai Bufan. Lu Yang honestly confessed:
“Brother Dai, the three of us have established a new demonic sect.”
