Demon Lord Tang Dynasty

Gao Yi reappeared within the tribe.

With Zhao Deyan's departure, the soldiers and troops that had gathered naturally dispersed, and peace returned to normal.

Compared to before, the tribe is now half the size, but everything is well-organized and full of vitality.

Gao Yi strolled toward the camp, his brows furrowed the entire time.

Zhao Deyan's departure signifies that a major problem has been resolved, at least temporarily.

However, the telepathic message Zhao Deyan sent before leaving undoubtedly brought another problem.

This also left Gao Yi extremely puzzled.

Yin Gui School.

He certainly knew that name.

But Gao Yi didn't know how the Yin Gui Sect was connected to his Maitreya Sect.

Zhao Deyan of the Demonic Image Sect knew about them, so there were still clues to follow.

After all, Gao Yi had caused quite a stir before.

It was not surprising that Zhao Deyan, who was in Turkic territory, heard about them.

But the Yin Gui school.

There was no direct contact between the two sides.

It should be noted that even Yang Lin, who was hit on the head by Gao Yi, might not know of Gao Yi's existence at this moment, let alone the Maitreya Sect under his control, which is the ancient Mahayana sect.

Is it Zhao Deyan?

Gao Yi did not believe that was possible.

Although they belong to the same two factions and six paths, the Demonic Appearance Sect and the Yin Gui Sect have been separated for many years.

Let alone exchanging goods and services, it would be good enough if the two sides didn't stab each other in the back.

It's worth noting that Zhao Deyan has always been dissatisfied with the ranking of the eight masters of the Demonic Sect.

"World Honored One!"

Just as Gao Yi was deep in thought, the White Protector's fawning voice rang out.

This also caught Gao Yi's eye.

This person is a living fossil of the Maitreya sect. Regardless of his merits, he certainly worked hard.

Although all the resources in the other party's hands have fallen into Gao Yi's hands, and even his subordinates have been taken away by Bai Yue'er, now only Bai San, who is full of rebellious spirit, is left.

But no matter what, Protector Bai has been in the Maitreya Sect for so many years, so he must know a lot of information.

Previously, due to various matters, Gao Yi had not had time to investigate Bai Hufa's secrets.

Of course, Bai Hufa's previous actions had also diminished Gao Yi's interest in these matters.

But now, Zhao Deyan's words have made him realize his oversight.

"Protector Bai," Gao Yi said with a smile.

This gentle, even slightly intimate voice sent a shiver down Bai Hufa's spine.

He was instantly overjoyed.

Could it be that his loyalty and ability have finally been recognized by the World Honored One, and he is about to be given an important position?

After much anticipation, the time has finally come for Old Bai to rise to prominence.

"World Honored One, I am here. If... if there is anything, please tell me. I will do anything, even die for it." The White Protector stammered.

Do you know about the Yin Gui School?

Gao Yi didn't mince words; he asked directly.

Because if the question is ambiguous, the person on the other end is very likely to not understand.

"Of course I know about the two factions and the six paths."

Protector Bai nodded decisively.

"World Honored One, you may not know, but my Maitreya Sect has a great connection with the two sects and the Six Paths. In fact, we are their predecessors," said the White Protector proudly.

It must be said that, putting everything else aside, the White Protector still has a strong sense of belonging to the Maitreya Sect.

Of course, Gao Yi didn't want to hear any of this, and simply waved his hand:

"Continue talking about the Yin Gui School."

"The Yin Gui School?"

Protector Bai was taken aback: "The Yin Gui Sect is a well-known sect in the martial arts world. Among the two demonic sects and six paths, the Yin Gui Sect is currently the most powerful. Its sect leader, Zhu Yuyan, is terrifyingly strong, and almost no one in the martial arts world dares to provoke her."

Gao Yi shook his head slightly in disappointment; what the other party said did not contain what he wanted.

But just as Gao Yi temporarily put his mind at ease, Protector Bai suddenly approached.

"Your Majesty, you don't know, but I have even met the Yin Queen Zhu Yuyan," the White Protector boasted proudly.

As soon as he finished speaking, Gao Yi turned his head sharply, his eyes piercing Bai Hufa with a sharp light.

"You've seen her? When?"

The White Protector was so frightened that he shuddered, his face turned pale, and he answered tremblingly:

"It's been more than ten years. I originally had two adopted daughters, one of whom was taken by Zhu Yuyan... uh, she took a fancy to her and made her her apprentice."

"Oh?" Gao Yi's eyes widened in surprise. "So, Yue'er has a sister?"

"Yes, her name is Bai Qing'er. She is Bai Yue'er's older sister, but they are actually about the same age."

Protector Bai shook his head and said, "Originally, I named them Qingfeng Mingyue, but the two girls had no taste and threw a tantrum in protest, so I changed them to Qing'er and Yue'er."

Gao Yi narrowed his eyes. Now he understood where the connection between the Yin Gui Sect and the Maitreya Sect came from.

But then a look of confusion flashed in his eyes.

It is quite obvious that the Yin Gui sect has its sights set on the Maitreya sect.

However, Bai Qing'er had been a disciple of the Yin Gui Sect for over ten years, even if she didn't know it at the time, she only realized it later.

Zhu Yuyan has known about the Maitreya Sect for at least a considerable period of time.

With such a long time, given Zhu Yuyan's abilities, she should be able to easily obtain whatever she sets her sights on.

With Protector Bai's limited abilities, let alone Zhu Yuyan, he couldn't even stop a random elder from the Yin Gui Sect.

But to this day, the Maitreya sect is still thriving, and it was Zhao Deyan who came knocking on their door first.

"After that, did you have any contact with Zhu Yuyan or Bai Qing'er?"

Upon hearing this question, Protector Bai shook his head vigorously.

After shaking his head, seemingly afraid that Gao Yi wouldn't believe him, Protector Bai quickly explained:

"Your Majesty, I truly have no connection with the Yin Gui Sect. I am utterly loyal to Your Majesty and to the Divine Sect, and would never do anything to harm the Divine Sect."

"Besides..."

Protector Bai gritted his teeth and finally spoke the truth:

"That Yin Empress Zhu Yuyan is truly terrifying. We only met briefly, and she beat my subordinate half to death and abducted Qing'er without even exchanging a word."

"Afterwards, I took Yue'er and fled overnight. I never returned to the Great Sui Dynasty, let alone contacted them again."

Gao Yi nodded. It seemed that it was Protector Bai's cowardice and fear of death that prevented Empress Zhu Yuyan from finding any trace of him.

"Alright, let's leave it at that. Come with me now."

Gao Yi waved his hand, temporarily putting the matter out of his mind.

Whether it's the Empress Yin or the Demon General, what the Maitreya Sect can attract is nothing more than its lineage, whether it's Zhu Faqing or Ni Huihui.

Zhu Yuyan is certainly powerful, but as long as it's not right in front of us, we don't need to worry about her too much.

Time and the future are only on his side.

Given time, whether it's the Queen of the Underworld or anyone else, they'll all be crawling on the ground calling for Daddy.

"World Honored One, if we need anything, just instruct your subordinates. There's really no need for you to personally come out." The White Protector followed closely beside Gao Yi.

"It's about time; it's time to get down to business."

Gao Yi chuckled softly, looked up at the horizon, his eyes filled with coldness.
