Five Immortal Sects

Chapter 495: Li Yan's depression and the kind-hearted old man in gray robe

Views:

As he spoke, Hua Siwang raised his palm and pointed it at the old man in gray robe. At the same time, the object hanging on his waist disappeared, flashed a red light, and then reappeared in his palm.

It was a blood-colored token with two ancient copper characters "Pure Land" written on it. On the other side was a row of unknown scriptures carved from it, which emitted a "buzzing" sound, as if they were constantly chanting in a low voice.

"Pure Land Sect Recruitment Order!"

The old man in gray robe had actually already seen the red token hanging around Hua Siwang's waist, but he only spoke in a low voice deliberately at this time.

Afterwards, the grey-robed old man also bowed in return, "Li also has a job to do!"

As he spoke, there was a flash of light in his hand, and an equally small golden token appeared in his hand. On the front was the same two ancient seal characters "Pure Land", and on the back was a venerable figure holding a vajra to subdue demons, who was none other than the Buddhist Vajra.

After Hua Siwang saw the token, he finally felt relieved. "Demon-Slaying Token!" Now the battle with the demons was in full swing, and he had to be on guard. However, the tokens they held were signed by dripping blood to recognize the owner. Once the owner died, the token would also turn into powder at the same time, so there was no need to worry about the enemy killing people and using them.

Then, Hua Siwang did not continue to ask the gray-robed old man what mission he was carrying out here. These things were kept confidential. It was enough to confirm that the other party was someone who had been included in the summons of the four major sects.

Hua Siwang then turned his gaze to all the people behind the grey-robed old man. The grey-robed old man sighed in his heart. These monks holding the red "Conscription Orders" were different from them. They could check the identities of other monks at any time and some of them had great power.

Seeing this, the other six cultivators except Li Yan all looked nervous and immediately slapped the storage bags on their waists. Each of them had six more tokens in their hands. All six tokens were light gold in color and emitted a trace of great and righteous power.

Its surface color was much lighter than that of the gray-robed old man, and the word "Pure Land" was also written on the front. Hua Siwang then nodded and signaled them to put away the token.

The gray-robed old man and his men were carrying out a mission to fight the enemy, so they would not hang the token directly around their waists as ostentatiously as Hua Siwang's, as if they were afraid that others would not know about it.

Finally, Hua Siwang locked his eyes on Li Yan, who was standing there at a loss as to what to do.

"Just now, Hua happened to have his spiritual sense sweep over here, and heard Senior Brother Li say that this young friend was going to Daning City, and there were words of conscription. It seems that this young friend has not been included in the list of conscription by the four major sects."

Li Yan looked at Hua Siwang with some fear, then looked at the gray-robed old man with a pleading look, and did not dare to answer.

But before the gray-robed old man could speak, Hua Siwang's eyes shot out two sharp rays of light, and then he spoke again.

"Oh, by the way, what is this young friend's name? Senior Brother Li just said that this young friend has an old relationship with his master? But I wonder who this master is? I think his master must have at least reached the Golden Core stage."

There was no flat story, just a series of questions, as if the "criminal" was being pressed step by step.

After hearing this, the gray-robed old man couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart. How could he not understand the implication of Hua Siwang's words? It seemed that even the other party's master had taken him into consideration and wanted to recruit him as well.

However, the old man in gray robe actually hoped that the master that Li Yan mentioned would really appear here. How could Hua Siwang easily control a master who could easily kill two demons

"I'm Jiang Hai, my master is Wu Youzi. I'm just here to do some work for him. I don't know what's going on in the outside world now..."

Li Yan showed fear on his face and spoke hesitantly.

"Wu Youzi? Who is this? Why haven't I heard Senior Brother Li mention this person?" Hua Siwang thought about it, but couldn't remember such a person at all. He looked at the gray-robed old man in confusion.

"He is a fellow disciple of mine. He just doesn't like to go out. Why? Does Brother Hua think that Mr. Li is lying?"

The grey-robed old man said with some displeasure that he had already spoken just now, and Hua Siwang just replied with a faint "Oh", and then there was no further words.

Then Hua Siwang looked over and seemed to have forgotten his previous question, and asked Li Yan directly. This was clearly not giving himself any face, which made the gray-robed old man unhappy.

If it were more than a hundred years ago, this cultivator who had just reached the stage of Dan would have flattered me upon seeing me.

"Hehehe, Senior Brother Li, what are you talking about? How can I doubt your words? However, my duty is to recruit cultivators according to your orders. All Jindan and foundation-building cultivators who see this order must go to the assembly point according to the order, otherwise they will be regarded as enemies of the four major sects.

Isn't it? Since the recruitment of monks from Huangxuan Valley began two years ago, no monks have been sent to gather at Lingtian Sect, using the excuse that the chief elder and the head of the sect were in seclusion and there was no one in charge.

Previously, when the situation was not too serious, it was fine, just a fine of some spirit stones, a slight punishment. But now it is still the same, the Pure Land Sect has issued an order, strictly prohibiting any sect from violating it, even the monks in seclusion must come out to meet the enemy.

This time when I went to Huangxuan Valley, I had already forcefully sent the secret order to their great elder’s retreat. After receiving the order, the two of them will gather at the designated place in a few days. Look, these are the foundation-building monks in their sect, so…”

Hua Siwang chuckled and raised the red token that he had not put away yet again. Without arguing with "Uncle Li", he spoke slowly. Finally, he slightly turned his face to signal Li Yan and the others to look at the eight people who were still on the giant sword in the air.

After Hua Siwang said this, the eight foundation-building cultivators who were still standing in the air couldn't help but show bitter expressions. They were all cultivators from the Huangxuan Valley. This fierce man had come to the sect early this morning and wanted to see the grand elder and the sect leader immediately without any explanation.

But these two have been in seclusion for several years, so how can they come out at will? The Great Elder said before the seclusion that no one is allowed to trespass into the seclusion area without permission.

Even under the summons from Lingtian Sect two years ago, the senior disciples in the sect only had the right to handle daily affairs and did not dare to transfer a large number of cultivators away from the sect.

Finally, after Lingtianmen sent ten cultivators, they fined Huangxuan Valley tens of thousands of spirit stones and forcibly went to the warehouse to confiscate the spirit stones and the matter was brought to an end.

But today, this vicious man not only has unfathomable cultivation, but also refuses to listen to reason with them. With a sweep of his spiritual sense, he flew to the place where the great elder was in seclusion.

This shocked all the disciples of Huangxuan Valley. They were about to stop him, but the big man just turned around and snorted lightly. All the monks who came forward were immediately as if they were cast under a spell. The first few people even vomited blood from their mouths and fell directly to the ground, unconscious.

The big man then turned around and left, leaving only a few words in the air: "Ignorant youngsters, if you were not still useful, I would have killed you all right here just for the crime of treason."

As the disciples were filled with shock and fear, they heard a series of explosions coming from the place where the Great Elder was in seclusion, followed by the Great Elder's angry roar that shook the whole area.

Then, the familiar aura of the Great Elder and the Sect Master came from behind, which made the disciples in the sect very happy. This unknown cultivator came up without any reason and acted recklessly, and he would end up either dying or escaping in a short while. They had absolute confidence in the strength of the Great Elder.

But soon, silence suddenly fell in the rear, which made all the disciples look at each other in bewilderment. Half an hour later, the Great Elder came from the rear with a tired look on his face, followed by the Sect Leader who also had an embarrassed expression, and the big man.

Next, the Great Elder gave an order that made no one believe it. The Great Elder specifically left three Foundation Establishment cultivators in the sect to guard outside the sect, and the rest of the Foundation Establishment cultivators were to follow the big man.

For a moment, the monks in Huangxuan Valley didn't know what was going on, but seeing that the Great Elder had a sullen face and was obviously unwilling to say more, no one dared to ask.

Finally, the Sect Master pulled all the foundation-building monks to a side hall and explained everything. Only then did everyone realize that the demons from the outside world had already invaded. Not to mention them, even the Great Elder and the Sect Master would have to gather at the designated location after finishing their work in two days.

This huge change made everyone in Huangxuan Valley, from top to bottom, feel insecure. Their sect was deliberately set up in such a remote place because they didn't want to be involved in the outside world's disturbances. However, there were still many disciples in Huangxuan Valley, so its strength and influence had long been recorded in the Pure Land Sect.

Although there was a call from "Lingtian Sect" last time, just like Ding Yushan and others at that time, it was estimated that except for the level of the Grand Elder who could vaguely guess it, the disciples below would not think of the so-called demons unless someone told them.

For a while, the Huangxuan Valley was in chaos from top to bottom. Many people wanted to find a way out and did not want to go on a long journey to fight. However, apart from the three direct foundation-building cultivators designated by the great elder who were able to lead a group of Qi Condensation disciples to stay in the sect, the other foundation-building cultivators had no chance to make any concessions. In just half an hour, under Hua Siwang's fierce momentum, all of them mounted the giant sword.

What these disciples didn't know was that the fact that the sect was able to keep three foundation-building cultivators was because the Great Elder had bargained with the other party and offered a lot of benefits. It was only with the Great Elder's heart bleeding that the other party showed some mercy.

In this way, Huang Siwang walked all the way from Huangxuan Valley. Unexpectedly, Hua Siwang was alert on the way and just casually swept his spiritual sense, and coincidentally heard the words of the gray-robed old man.

The grey-robed old man had long heard that these cultivators holding the "recruitment order" were very ruthless and would often extort a large sum of money from the sect being recruited, or else they would kill all the cultivators in the other sect who were at the foundation-building stage or above.

If the battle ahead is fierce with heavy casualties, the future inheritance of a certain sect may be in trouble. Now that Hua Siwang said this, he wanted to make a profit from the sect behind this "Junior Brother Jiang".

For a moment, the gray-robed old man began to hesitate whether he should continue to offend Hua Siwang in order to make friends with a cultivator. At the same time, he was carrying out an ambush mission, and he could not tell the other party that his master had killed the demon here.

Moreover, he also hoped that the outsiders here would leave quickly to avoid delaying his work and causing the mission to fail.

It also couldn't explain how powerful the mysterious monk behind Li Yan was, which made Hua Siwang feel afraid. However, the old man in gray robe couldn't spend a large amount of spirit stones to open up this relationship for Li Yan.

He had just spoken for Li Yan. After all, he was not the one who offended the mysterious monk. After thinking about it, he still moved his lips slightly and sent a message to Hua Siwang, "Junior Brother Hua, this kid's master is from a prominent family. He should be in the False Infant Realm, so..."

However, although Li Yan did not hear the other party's voice transmission, he could guess the general situation by looking at the expressions of the two people. He felt depressed in his heart, "Who said it's good to enjoy the shade under a big tree? I don't want this coolness!"
