Having been given a second chance at life, I choose to join the Demonic Sect!

Cao Meng became interested upon hearing this. So it was Ma Zouri, Liu Ruyan's good younger brother!

"That's easy to say!"

Cao Meng and Ma Zouri had no grudges in their previous lives; to be precise, they had never even met in their previous lives.

Cao Meng felt that if he had known about the relationship between Ma Zouri and Liu Ruyan in his previous life, he could have simply accused Liu Ruyan of colluding with a demonic sect and eliminated her.

In her previous life, Liu Ruyan falsely accused herself of colluding with demons, but it turned out that she was the one who had colluded with demons.

This Liu Ruyan colluded with Tang Shang, a traitor of the human race, and Xiao Wu, a demon beast, and even addressed Ma Zouri, the younger brother of the Demonic Soul Refining Sect, as her sister.

That's a brilliant tactic!
"Fellow Daoist Xing Lan, have Ma Zou use the daily divination tool to contact me. I have something to ask him to do."

If he doesn't ask for divine guidance, send him to the neighboring Moon Chasing Dynasty; I'll arrange for someone to deliver the divine guidance to him!

Cao Meng is now very interested in Ma Zouri.

wrong!

He planned to use Ma Zouri to have some fun with Liu Ruyan, his senior from his previous life.

In his previous life, he didn't have any special abilities and couldn't defeat Liu Ruyan, who had the template of an eternal scumbag emperor.

Now that he has his cheat code, he's ready to play with Liu Ruyan. He hopes that Empress Ruyan can handle the fun!
At this moment, Cao Meng noticed a very serious problem and asked Xing Lan and Nalan Youruo:
"But why are you two together? Are you two plotting something?"

According to what Cao Meng knew, the Soul Refining Sect and the Blood Demon Sect were not close to each other.

The two women are now together, with members of the Soul Refining Sect and the Blood Demon Sect following behind them. Something's not right here!
Nalan Youruo rolled her eyes at Cao Meng through the interrogation machine and said irritably:
"Lord Cao, your Joyful Union Sect and Beast Soul Sect have gone all out this time. You're reaping the rewards, but we should at least get a share!"

The Joyful Union Sect and the Beast Soul Sect have a good relationship, while the Blood Demon Sect and the Soul Refining Sect have a good relationship.

The Blood Demon Sect and the Soul Refining Sect have a good relationship, mainly because they complement each other.

The Blood Demon Sect wants blood essence, while the Soul Refining Sect wants soul essence!
The two companies have absolutely no conflict of interest; in fact, they complement each other perfectly.

Adding to the alliance between the Joyful Union Sect and the Beast Soul Sect, it's possible that Old Demon Lu of the Netherworld Palace might become a Nascent Soul stage ancestor someday.

In a short time, the relationship between the Blood Demon Sect and the Soul Refining Sect improved, and they had already formed a secret alliance.

The Blood Demon Sect and the Soul Refining Sect felt that the Joyful Union Sect's actions were profitable, so the two sects conspired to take advantage of the situation.

One wants the essence and blood, the other wants the soul.

"Lord Cao, where are you now?"

Nalan Youruo asked Cao Meng about his location with a smile, but before Cao Meng could answer, she spoke up again:

"I heard that the patriarch of the Xuantian Sect said that as long as you are captured alive, you can become the sect leader of the Xuantian Sect!"

"Why don't you let me capture you once, and I'll send you to the Xuantian Sect then?"

Even if their patriarch doesn't give me the position of sect leader, he should at least give me a lot of resources. Then we can split them 50/50?

When Nalan Youruo made this suggestion, Cao Meng was immediately dumbfounded.

"Witch, you've got a good plan!"

Cao Meng wanted to know how the other party came up with this ingenious plan, and even more so, how they had the nerve to say it out loud!
You should know that Cao Meng is always the one who sells others, but this vixen Nalan Youruo is thinking of selling him, Cao Meng.

I sell myself and still have to split the profits 50/50 with others. This vixen has the talent to be an entrepreneur!

"Nalan witch, how many spirit stones would you be worth if you were sold to a righteous sect?"

Cao Meng has already decided that the day he encounters Nalan Youruo, this enchantress, he will capture her directly.

This vixen wants to capture me and sell me for money, so don't blame me for being impolite.

"Lord Cao, what brings you here to arrest them?"

Facing Cao Meng's threat, Nalan Youruo showed no fear, her beautiful eyes revealing a captivating charm:
"When you come to the Blood Demon Sect as a guest that day, tell them so they can close the cave's restrictions and make it easier for you to come in!"

Nalan Youruo, the Holy Maiden of the Blood Demon Sect, is seducing Cao Meng even through the screen, just like an ordinary woman saying, "My house is unlocked tonight!"
"Nalan, you witch, stop playing with fire, or you'll go too far!"

Cao Meng was a little angry at Nalan Youruo's flirting. This vixen was flirting with him through the screen. How annoying!
When the opportunity arises, I must capture this demoness and let her know whether my Dragon Spear is sharp or not.
Cao Meng remembered that the demoness Nalan Youruo had claimed that she was still a virgin and her virginity was intact, but he didn't know if it was true or not!

You should definitely try it when you have time!

"Lord Cao, I really want to test your True Sun Fire."

Since they were separated by a screen, Nalan Youruo wasn't afraid of Cao Meng and continued to tease him.

Wasn't Cao Cao ignoring me before?

Once she has seduced the other party to the point of no return, it will be time for her to close the net. Cao Cao will not be able to escape her clutches.

"is it?"

"Then you look good!"

Cao Meng chuckled coldly, snapped his fingers, and a spark flew out. With a series of explosions, several mountains were blasted to pieces and leveled to the ground!

"You have absolutely no sense of romance!"

Nalan Youruo rolled her eyes at Cao Meng with her beautiful eyes. Did she want to test this "real fire of the sun"?
What she wanted to try was liquefied solar fire, not this explosive solar fire!
She wanted to test just how powerful the Furnace Body really was!
But this Cao scoundrel is so clueless about romance, I curse him to be dumped by Xia Yulan and never find a partner in his life!
"Fellow Daoist Xing Lan, remember to have your junior brother Ma Zouri contact me."

If I haven't received any contact from him by the time I've finished dealing with things on my end, don't blame me for not giving you face!

Cao Meng was too lazy to pay attention to this vixen Nalan Youruo, and instead started chatting with Xing Lan.

There's no way to chat with that vixen Nalan Youruo; she only knows how to flirt with me.

This vixen isn't around, yet she's stirred up a fire within me that I can't extinguish!

If I were to find someone to put out the fire, Nangong Yan would definitely find out, and she would surely tell the female demon!
Moreover, with that traitor Hong Qi watching from the side, if I continue chatting with Nalan the demoness, that fox spirit will definitely tell the great demon Xia Yulan!
"Rest assured, Fellow Daoist Cao Meng!"

Xing Lan thought that the matter with Ma Zouri should be left as it was.

Since I've already given the other party a chance, if they don't seize it, they can't blame me!

As for the fifty million souls that Ma Zouri promised him, he had to give them to Ma Zouri regardless of whether the deal went through or not.

If Ma Zouri dares to renege on his debt, he shouldn't blame his senior sister for turning her back on him. She will then refine Ma Zouri into a malevolent spirit!
"Fellow Daoist Cao Meng, my Soul Refining Sect recently wants to purchase a batch of Immortal Inquiry Machines!"

Xing Lan stated her request: the batch of Immortal Inquiry Machines she had previously purchased had been dismantled by the Refining Soul Sect's weapon refiners.

After dismantling it, the refining method was not figured out; only some of the materials were analyzed.

To continue researching the Inquiry Machine, we need to keep ordering more stock and continue disassembling and experimenting!
In addition, according to what the Soul Refining Sect knows, the Joyful Union Sect has already begun to popularize the Inquiry of Immortals on a large scale, and the higher-ups of the Beast Soul Sect have also begun to popularize it.

The Hehuan Sect has already established a sect chat group, and the Beast Soul Sect has also established some high-level chat groups.

It's so much easier for other sects to send out messages and notifications, unlike their Soul Refining Sect which still uses one-on-one communication jade talismans.

It's impossible for other sects' high-ranking members to be using the Immortal Inquiry Machine while their Soul Refining Sect is still using outdated sound transmission jade talismans, right? The pile of sound transmission jade talismans in my storage ring is almost more than the number of spirit stones; they're really an eyesore and take up a lot of space!
The sound transmission jade talisman works like this: only those jade talismans made in the same batch can transmit sound to each other.

The sound transmission jade talisman cannot be used for multiple purposes and cannot be used to contact sound transmission jade talismans that were not made in the same batch.

Therefore, Ye You, the sect leader of the Soul Refining Sect, arranged for his granddaughter Xing Lan to purchase a batch of Immortal Inquiry materials from Cao Meng!

Of course, Ye You had his own ulterior motives in asking Xing Lan to source goods from Cao Meng.

Ye You had long seen through Cao Meng's greed, so he planned to take this opportunity to bring Cao Meng and Xing Lan together.

If Cao Meng and Xing Lan get together, Cao Meng will be considered half a member of the Soul Refining Sect.

When Cao Meng's cultivation level rises in the future, won't he have to take care of Xing Lan's maternal family, the Soul Refining Sect?
"That's easy, I'll take care of things here first!"

Cao Meng was overjoyed when he heard that Xing Lan had come to deliver spirit stones to him.

After dealing with this matter, he will spend all his time refining the Immortal Inquiry Machine to help himself escape poverty.

Chi Liyu: Cao thief, you still want to escape poverty?

You should pay off the debt you owe the Corpse Yin Sect first!

When the topic of Wenxianji's business came up, Nalan Youruo jumped out again:
"Lord Cao, they also want to buy a batch of Immortal Inquiry Machines. How about we give them a discount? They like kickbacks!"

The Blood Demon Sect and the Soul Refining Sect are in the same boat; whatever the Soul Refining Sect is in, the Blood Demon Sect is in the same boat!
Nalan Youruo wanted to line her own pockets and take kickbacks, and Cao Meng wanted to take some too.
"no problem!"

"Nalan Youruo, I'll give you a 10% discount!"

Cao Meng smiled on the surface, but in his heart he was cursing Nalan Youruo's sister.

I've already done more than enough by not raising prices, and this demoness Nalan still wants me to give her a discount? How ridiculous!

If we were to discuss business in bed, I might consider it.

You can't expect a discount just by opening your mouth through the screen of the fortune teller! Dream on!
A 10% discount?
Isn't this just because there was no discount?

In a fit of anger, Nalan Youruo unilaterally ended the video call.

"You bastard, I didn't expect you to be such a hot commodity. Even the Blood Demon Sect has their eyes on you, and they actually sent their juniors out to seduce you!"

Just as Cao Meng ended the communication, Nangong Yan appeared behind him instantly.

Did they really think she was resting in the cabin and didn't know what was happening on deck?

ridiculous!

You should know that her divine sense covered the entire flying boat; she knew even the smallest detail about Cao Meng!
Cao Meng was video chatting with someone else, and he thought he could hide it from her? Dream on!
"Grandmaster, there's nothing we can do, his talent is what it is!"

Cao Meng was also troubled, because being too outstanding makes one an easy target for others to covet!
Back when he was still in the Golden Core stage, the great demon Xia Yulan and the female demon Duanmu Fei already had their eyes on him!
Shen Aoxue, who possessed the innate sacred body of a living person, also began to have her eyes on him.

Seeing that Cao Meng was still putting on an act, Nangong Yan gave him a good roasted chestnut!
"You bastard, do you really think people are after you for who you are?"

"They're just greedy for the immortal's refining method!"

Nangong Yan dared to say that all the top sects were probably eyeing Xianji right now.

The Xuantian Sect's desire to capture Cao Meng alive is likely also to inquire about the method of refining the Immortal Secret!
To put it bluntly, even within the Hehuan Sect, some high-ranking members and elders are somewhat envious of the Immortal Refining Method.

If it weren't for the threats and warnings from the elders of the Suqin Peak lineage, the Void Refinement stage elders within the sect might have already taken action against Cao Meng.

"You scoundrel, remember to watch your mouth. Don't fall for someone's honey trap. It's fine to play with others, but don't hand over the method for refining the Immortal Inquiry!"

Nangong Yan was very worried about Cao Meng, because this scoundrel was an absolute lecher.

Why do you see it?

This bastard doesn't even respect his elders, his master, or his uncles, which is enough to explain everything!

!!!

Beauty plan!
Free of charge!

Cao Meng was suddenly startled. His grandmaster, Nangong Yan, was really teaching him to take advantage of others, sleep with them, and then forget about them afterward!

As expected, my grandmaster is indeed a female demon who has cultivated for a thousand years; her methods are truly impressive!

"Grandmaster, don't worry, even if I hand over the method for refining the Immortal Inquiry Machine, no one else will be able to learn it!"

To reassure Nangong Yan, Cao Meng immediately made a promise.

Having absolute authority to obtain divine secrets is useless if you don't have the authority to refine them yourself; even if you have the method to refine divine secrets, it's still useless!
Nangong Yan and Han Sijing, back then they only learned how to refine the Immortal Inquiry Machine by watching me refine it, but they still couldn't refine it themselves.

"You bastard, I told you your method of refining the Immortal Quest Machine was flawed!"

It would have been better if Cao Meng hadn't brought it up, because once he did, Nangong Yan got furious. She had been tricked by Cao Meng for a long time back then.

That jockey, that damned bastard, is utterly despicable and deserves to die!
Nangong Yan pinned Cao Meng to the deck and began to threaten him:

"Hand over the true method for refining the Immortal-Asking Machine, or I will rid the Hehuan Sect of this scourge and annihilate you, you bastard jockey who has destroyed your ancestors!"

When it came to the method of refining the Immortal-Asking Machine, Nangong Yan became quite angry.

Within the forbidden area, when the weapon refiners and Void Refining Ancestors of the Hehuan Sect were researching the Immortal Inquiry Machine, they were often asked by Nangong Yan, the sect's grandmaster, whether she knew how to refine the Immortal Inquiry Machine.

In order to save face for her grandmaster, Nangong Yan naturally had to grit her teeth and say yes!

Can she say no?

Her traitorous disciple, Consort Duanmu, knows it, and so does that scoundrel Cao Meng!
If she, as a master and grandmaster, couldn't refine the Immortal Inquiry Mechanism, she would be laughed to death by the other Void Refinement stage elders!
Every time those Void Refinement stage elders flattered her and asked her to refine a few Immortal Inquiry Machines to show them, she could only use the excuse of Suqin Peak's secrets to get away!
If one day she were exposed as someone who doesn't know how to refine the Immortal Inquiry Machine, she would be too ashamed to face anyone!

Therefore, she must know how to refine the Immortal Inquiry Machine so that she won't be exposed.

Hongqi watched as Cao Meng was pinned to the deck by Nangong Yan, and she almost danced with joy. That wretched Cao traitor was finally going to get his comeuppance.

Seeing Cao Meng being bullied, Shi Shi was secretly delighted, knowing that her chance to shine had come.

"Don't you dare bully Cao Meng! Release Cao Meng, or I'll kill you!"

Shishi threatened Nangong Yan with the unsheathed Azure Rain Divine Sword, saying that today she would tell Cao Meng that only Shishi could protect him!
As for Shishi's lack of ability to kill Nangong Yan?

The answer is, of course, yes!

Of course, Shishi didn't really want to kill Nangong Yan. She knew about the relationship between Cao Meng and Nangong Yan, so she just wanted to use Nangong Yan to show off in front of Cao Meng!
"You damned bastard, make her put away the Azure Rain Divine Sword right now!"

Shishi drew her Azure Rain Divine Sword, and Nangong Yan was already sweating profusely.

She quickly released Cao Meng so that he could comfort Shi Shi; she didn't want to be killed by the Azure Rain Divine Sword.

She's only a little over a thousand years old, with several thousand more years to live. It would be such a waste if she were killed because of a joke! (End of Chapter)
