destiny eternal calamity

Chapter 163 I'm determined to handle this matter!

The two chatted and soon arrived at the North Mountain Gate.

Several elders from the Yang clan were already waiting at the mountain gate.

They received a message from Shang Xueyan yesterday, informing them that she had found the Holy Son and would be coming today to exorcise the demons from the Yang Department's demon-possessed disciples.

The elders were naturally shocked by this, so they waited in front of the mountain gate early in the morning.

They saw that Shang Xueyan was accompanied by a man, and they began to make some guesses.

The man wearing the white iron mask must be His Highness the Holy Son.

Li Wei noticed that two of them had not only curiosity in their eyes, but also some complicated emotions.

Li Wei quickly realized that it was jealousy.

After all, the youngest of these elders was only a dozen years older than Shang Xueyan, who was the renowned Fairy of Kongsang. As men, they must have had some designs on her.

However, Shang Xueyan's status as a saintess left them only able to look on with envy.

And now, Li Wei, this holy son, has appeared.

According to the rules of the Kongsang Sect, Shang Xueyan will be Li Wei's Daoist partner from now on.

How can we prevent them from being jealous?

Despite their jealousy, they dared not show any sign of displeasure openly.

"Sect Leader, Your Highness the Holy Son, good day."

The group bowed and greeted each other.

"Good day, elders. Let's go there as soon as possible to perform the exorcism."

Without wasting any more words, Shang Xueyan led Li Wei toward the dungeon.

The elders quickly followed.

The dungeon in the north mountain was clearly larger than that in the south mountain, and the cells inside were also three-story, with twelve rooms on each floor.

But it still couldn't hold all the demon-possessed disciples, so six extra iron cages were placed in the middle of the dungeon.

A total of forty-two disciples who had fallen into demonic possession.

There is also a Dharma-manager guarding this place.

The guard had already been notified, and when he saw Shang Xueyan and her group of seven arrive, he handed them the keys.

Li Wei took the key and began the exorcism.

This took a full six hours, and it was already night when it ended.

The forty-two disciples were gradually moved to the North Mountain Medical Hall by several elders for care.

Li Wei also followed Shang Xueyan back to Nanshan by air.

Although he was a man, the Holy Son had the privilege of staying overnight in Nanshan.

The two elders sighed inwardly, lamenting that their goddess had finally found a partner.

All they could do was offer their silent blessings.

Not long after Li Wei returned to his room, he saw Yao Yue suddenly appear in the air.

He quickly pulled the haughty aunt to the bedside.

Shang Xueyan came here to demand an explanation, but just as she was about to use her identity as Yaoyue to question Gu Meng and Yan Ruyu about their affairs, Li Wei said, "Good sister, I plan to form the Holy Son Party in the Kongsang Sect."

Afterwards, Li Wei told her about how he had subdued Yan Ruyu, and even told her about how he had asked Yan Ruyu to spread the word that he was the Lord of Reincarnation.

Shang Xueyan was taken aback when she heard this. This brat really didn't hide anything from his woman, making her unsure how to cause him any trouble.

"You have special feelings for those two female disciples, don't you?"

She said it in an icy tone.

"Not now, but maybe in the future," Li Wei replied seriously after thinking for a moment.

His words were so sincere that Shang Xueyan was speechless for a moment.

This lecherous bastard brazenly and openly opened his harem, as if it were his own business.

Unfortunately, given her identity as Yaoyue, she had already accepted this situation and couldn't easily make a scene.

"Yan Ruyu is alright, but as far as I know, Gu Meng was originally engaged to the heir of the Prince of Dai in Wei, but she seems to hate this marriage. Her choice to follow the path of the Holy Maiden's succession may have been to rebel against the engagement."

"If she can defeat Yan Yatou, she can naturally escape the marriage contract as the Holy Maiden. But if she fails to be chosen as the Holy Maiden, her family probably won't let her go easily."

Shang Xueyan frowned and said.

Gu Meng and Yan Ruyu were considered her prospective disciples, and she had naturally investigated their family backgrounds and life experiences in detail beforehand.

Upon hearing this, Li Wei frowned slightly.

He wasn't blindly arrogant; he knew that in the eyes of the Gu family, this Holy Son of Kongsang might not necessarily carry the same weight as a prince of a secular dynasty.

After all, the Holy Son is only the Holy Son of the mountain, while the Gu family has been a family for thousands of years, and most of the Gu family members live in the secular world.

He could certainly force Gu Meng to stay on the mountain, but she also has family in the secular world, and her elders are among the elders on the mountain.

If things get too ugly, it will inevitably make him, as the Holy Son, seem somewhat arrogant, domineering, and unreasonable.

Sure enough, as long as you establish and deepen your connection with this world, you will encounter a constant stream of troubles.

This is cause and effect.

Li Wei felt a surge of irritation.

At this point, the easiest thing for him to do was to ignore Gu Meng. He didn't lack a subordinate like her, nor did he lack women.

Moreover, Gu Meng is not his subordinate or woman yet.

But he felt very uncomfortable doing that.

No wonder Gu Meng cared so much about the position of Holy Maiden; it turned out that she felt that her Holy Son couldn't help her get rid of the marriage contract.

Her resentment stemmed from her unwillingness to accept being at the mercy of others in controlling her fate.

[Still too weak. If I were an Eternal Tribulation cultivator, I wouldn't need to worry about this.]

Because of his core mission of suppressing the Demon Clan, the Holy Son of Kongsang holds a high position in the Kongsang Sect, but the Kongsang Sect also has a Supreme Elder at the Eternal Tribulation Realm.

However, the Holy Son and Holy Daughter of Kongsang may not necessarily be able to break through the Eternal Tribulation, so the Kongsang Sect is not a one-man show by the Holy Son and Holy Daughter.

He and Shang Xueyan were merely influential figures in the decision-making process.

Status is ultimately just an external thing; if you want people to obey, having a big fist is still the most reliable way.

"I'm determined to handle Gu Meng's matter!"

Li Wei said with a sharp look in his eyes.

This wasn't him deliberately causing trouble; rather, he was helping someone in need.

If she fails to be chosen as the Holy Maiden, she may not like Li Wei, the Holy Son, but Li Wei will not allow her to be forced into a marriage by someone else.

If this happened to someone he knew, it would disgust him to death.

That was the real reason he pointed out the way to the two women that morning.

But he didn't expect that Gu Meng was already engaged, so he didn't count on him as a lifeline.

He thought Gu Meng was simply arrogant.

"There's no rush. They're only at the Divine Realm. It'll be at least a few more years before a winner is decided," Shang Xueyan comforted her.

"That's true, in a few years I might be doomed."

After being enlightened by "Inviting the Moon", Li Wei suddenly understood.

His cultivation speed is extraordinary, and time is on his side. The longer it drags on, the easier it will be to resolve this matter.

However, Li Wei thought that resolving this matter would definitely involve wrangling with the Wei Kingdom, and coupled with his desire to steal Wei Kingdom's military secrets, an idea gradually formed in his mind.

That was an undercover agent in the Wei Kingdom.

He buried this thought in his heart and went to bed with Yaoyue in his arms.

Because the other person hadn't recovered their energy, he didn't do anything inappropriate, but he did indulge in his groping.

Now, when Yaoyue is in his arms, her expression is no longer so cold.

It lacked a bit of fun.

As he gently stroked Yaoyue's hair, lost in thought, a familiar voice suddenly echoed in his mind: "Husband, are you there?"
