Chapter 94 The masterminds behind the scenes deserve to die.
Chapter 95 The masterminds behind the scenes deserve to die.
Boundless pain surged forth, engulfing Shi Yexing like a tidal wave.
People often use the phrase "eighteen levels of hell" to describe the horror of punishment.
The Blood Shadow Cult has set up a Netherworld Prison, and even more sinister arts that can make the world lose its color, turning it into a sea of blood, dragging the spirits of living beings into it to suffer the corrosive effects of the blood sea and the torment of being torn apart by a thousand cuts.
Shi Yexing had always known this sorcery was terrifying, but he hadn't known just how terrifying. Now, however, he truly understood what the eighteen levels of hell meant.
His soul was torn apart, his eyes bulged, and blood flowed from his seven orifices.
An indescribable pain swept over his entire body; Shi Yexing was torn between life and death.
They didn't even know who was behind it all.
After an unknown amount of time, when Shi Yexing felt that even survival was torture, a voice finally came from mid-air: "Do you want to die?"
"Yes, let me die quickly!"
Upon finally hearing the voice, Shi Yexing's eyes lit up as if he had seen a savior, and he shouted.
"You dare to claim death as a gift?"
Bai Xuan did not appear, but with a clench of his hand, another soul impacted Shi Yexing's soul.
Shi Yexing screamed again, saying, "My lord, please tell me! As long as you allow me to die, I will do whatever you want!"
""
Upon hearing Shi Yexing's words, Bai Xuan withdrew his magical power and asked, "In October, the Blood Shadow Sect's Liangzhou branch, under your command, attempted to assassinate the Prince of Zhenbei at the Jade True Temple. Who gave the order, and what was their purpose?"
"The Prince of Zhenbei?"
Upon hearing this, Shi Yexing's face showed a look of shock.
He suspected many people, trying to figure out who was behind it.
First, there's Blood Heavenly Lord of the Blood Shadow Cult. The Blood Shadow Cult's trickery, Asura Prison, can achieve a similar effect.
Secondly, there is the abbot of Wuxiang Temple. Wuxiang Temple is also proficient in soul secret techniques. Their secret techniques can pull the opponent's spirit into the cycle of life and death of countless past lives, allowing them to experience the joys and sorrows of hundreds of lifetimes in an instant, causing their mind to change drastically and achieve enlightenment. Wuxiang Temple has used this method to convert many demonic masters.
He even considered becoming the leader of the Qinghua Sect.
But they never expected it to be someone from the Prince of Zhenbei's mansion.
Has the Prince of Zhenbei gone mad?
I didn't kill you, I just killed the people in your Taoist temple.
As for why they're so relentlessly pursuing us, even sending out such a skilled expert.
"Um?"
As Shi Yexing pondered this, Bai Xuan let out a soft snort, which resounded in Shi Yexing's mind like a muffled thunderclap. Shi Yexing's face contorted with fear, and he dared not utter another word. He trembled as he said, "Reporting to my lord, this is an order from the main altar. Left Envoy Xue Qiansha has come to Wuwei in person. I do not know who the employer is. You can go and find Xue Qiansha."
"In other words, you're completely useless. Then continue," Bai Xuan said coldly.
As soon as he finished speaking, another wave of domineering pressure swept over them.
"No, sir, although I don't know who gave the order, it's most likely someone from the Loyal Heart Alliance."
A terrifying pressure swept over him, and Shi Yexing was so frightened that he almost lost his mind. He hurriedly said...
"The Loyal Heart Alliance? What kind of force is that? What is its relationship with the Prince of Zhenbei?" Bai Xuan frowned upon hearing this.
Loyal Heart Alliance?
This faction is not listed in the intelligence network of the Prince of Zhenbei.
"They have risen to prominence in recent years and are extremely mysterious, never revealing themselves, but they are all members of the underworld. We have still managed to find out their origins. They are descendants of the three kingdoms of Northern Yan, Western Shu, and Southern Chu. On the day of the Crescent Moon Gorge, eighteen experts at the Tongtian Realm surrounded and killed the old Zhenbei King. Six of them were from the demon race, seven were from the Northern Wilderness, two were from our Blood Shadow Sect, and the other three were from the Danxin Alliance," Shi Yexing hurriedly replied.
These are things he shouldn't have known, given his level of authority.
But having been based in Liangzhou for many years, he naturally had access to information that others couldn't.
"The Loyal Heart Alliance? That's the remnants of the Three Kingdoms. How do we contact them?" Bai Xuan asked.
That makes sense.
The three kingdoms of Northern Yan, Western Shu, and Southern Chu were all destroyed by the Prince of Zhenbei.
In particular, the Northern Yan, whose Youzhou cavalry once roamed the world, was defeated by the iron cavalry of the Prince of Zhenbei. The Liangzhou iron cavalry trampled Yanjing, forcing the last Yan emperor to commit suicide by burning himself.
Everyone in Northern Yan hated Prince Zhenbei, with Han Zhou, who ranked among the top three in the martial arts list, being the most vehement, having attempted to assassinate him several times.
Although they were unsuccessful, they all escaped unscathed.
It is understandable that the remnants of the Three Kingdoms period hated the Prince of Zhenbei.
Loyal Heart Alliance?
loyalty unto death.
"Well, I don't know either. I only judged from their martial arts, clothing, and conversation that they came from the Three Kingdoms. But they are the Left Envoy in charge of liaison, and I am just a branch leader." Shi Yexing replied with a fearful expression, afraid that Bai Xuan would punish him again.
However, he dared not speak recklessly because he was deeply afraid of Bai Xuan.
He wouldn't have been able to find out this information if it weren't for the fact that this was Wuwei.
Bai Xuan nodded upon hearing this, believing Shi Yexing on this point. If they were truly remnants of the Northern Yan, Western Shu, and Southern Chu kingdoms, even as remnants, as members of the legitimate royal family, their individual strength would not be much inferior to the Blood Shadow Cult. If they were an alliance, they would surpass it.
To communicate with them, one must be among the highest levels of the Blood Shadow Cult. Although the leader of the Liangzhou branch is not low in status, he is still somewhat inferior.
However, finding someone from the Danxin Society is not difficult; just look for Han Zhou.
Regardless of what kind of organization the Danxin Society is, it cannot be unrelated to Han Zhou, a top-three martial arts master.
The foundation of the Northern Yan royal family was destroyed in the battle that year by the old Zhenbei King. It can be said that Han Zhou was the first person in Northern Yan to be destroyed.
This so-called Danxin Society may even have been established by Han and Zhou.
Before ascending to immortality, the Danxin Society must be destroyed to eliminate any worries Yuhua may have.
"Then how did you, the branch leader, manage to survive until now? Who's helping you?" Bai Xuan asked Shi Yexing.
Upon hearing Bai Xuan's words, Shi Yexing was startled and gritted his teeth, saying, "It is Abbot Guangming of Longxiang Temple and Duan Hongwen, son of Duan Qingjiang of the Wuwei Duan family."
"Guangming and Duan Hongwen?" Bai Xuan raised an eyebrow upon hearing this. "Why would those two dare to risk offending the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion to help you?"
Guangming is the abbot who protected the group of lewd monks.
Duan Hongwen was no stranger either; he had just had both of Duan Hongwen's legs broken.
But why should they help Shi Yexing?
"Because they have no choice." Shi Yexing gritted his teeth and said, "The abbot of Longxiang Temple, Master Kongsang, is a high monk who disdains the Joyful Zen. He believes that although this path is not evil, it has too high requirements for martial artists. It is too difficult to use desire to control desire and achieve the union of emptiness and bliss. On the contrary, one may sink into the sea of desire, just like the White Bone Contemplation. It is not suitable for cultivation."
"But Guangming was a lewd monk. In the past, many women came to this temple to pray for children, and he would take the opportunity to have sex with those women. He got addicted to the taste and longed for the Joyful Zen. He secretly practiced this skill, absorbing yin to replenish yang, seeking the opportunity to live long and break through to the Tongtian Realm. Later, he even secretly abducted women, but his methods were too crude and I discovered it very quickly."
"So, you're helping him find it?" Bai Xuan asked Shi Yexing with a cold gaze.
"Yes," Shi Yexing admitted frankly. "This is an excellent opportunity for the Blood Shadow Sect. After all, Kongsang is getting old and his control over Longxiang Temple has greatly weakened. Many daily affairs are now managed by Guangming, the abbot."
Longxiang Temple is the premier Buddhist temple in Wuwei, frequented by numerous powerful figures, and has close ties with the Duan family of Wuwei. Therefore, I seized this opportunity to form a cooperation agreement with Guangming: he wanted women, I provided them, and he would facilitate my communication with the powerful figures of Wuwei.
"So, you turned the back of Qiongri Mountain into your den of iniquity?" Bai Xuan asked.
"This was Guangming's decision. He enjoys Zen practice and can't live without women." Shi Yexing tried hard to distance himself from the matter.
"With his current state of being consumed by lust, he still wants to achieve the ability to control his desires with desires. At most, he can go a little further in the eighth realm. To enter the ninth realm is nothing but a pipe dream!" Bai Xuan sneered.
"What about Duan Hongwen?" Bai Xuan asked again.
If it were just Guangming, he couldn't protect Shi Yexing; the more crucial factor is the Duan family.
The real local tyrant of Wuwei.
It would be incredibly easy for them to hide someone.
"He and Guangming are birds of a feather, or rather, Guangming plotted against him, letting him see the Joyful Zen, and step by step making Duan Hongwen practice the Joyful Zen, so that they could enjoy bliss together," Shi Yexing said.
"This is it? Duan Hongwen, Duan Qingjiang's only son, does he lack women? Even if we give him Huanxi Chan, it's just a gift to him." Bai Xuan said.
"Of course, it's not just that. Duan Hongwen is a member of the Duan family, and he is indeed pampered and has no shortage of women. But even so, he doesn't look down on ordinary women. He likes women who don't obey him, women with strong personalities, and women from virtuous families who would rather die than submit. He can't take these women by force, otherwise he would break the Duan family's rules, and even if his father loves him, he would still be punished by the family law," Shi Yexing said.
"So, you snatched it for him? But even here, it's not enough. In Wuwei, it's incredibly easy for the Duan family to settle things," Bai Xuan said.
The term "local tyrant" is not a joke.
These powerful families were local tyrants.
Even the governor of Wuwei had to give him some leeway.
The abduction of women is a serious matter, but the Duan family of Wuwei can suppress it if they want to.
"If it were any other time, that would be the case, but among the women he forced was his cousin, Duan Shuying. Duan Shuying's father is Duan Qingshan, the head of the Pingya branch of the Duan family. So I can't die. If I die, these things will spread the next day, and Duan Hongwen will be killed by Duan Qingshan, and Guangming will be executed by Kongsang. They must protect me!" Shi Yexing said.
"So that's how it is. What a fool he was, he deserves to be executed by slow slicing."
Upon hearing this, Bai Xuan said coldly.
He had already thought Duan Hongwen was both stupid and wicked when he first saw him, but now he could only say that it would be an injustice if such a person didn't die.
"Yes, damn it," Shi Yexing quickly echoed.
"However, you should die too!"
Bai Xuan glanced at Shi Yexing, then pressed down with his large hand. A sharp pain struck, and Shi Yexing was plunged into darkness.
Bai Xuan casually tossed Shi Yexing back into the cave, leaving a mark on him so that he could find him no matter where he fled.
This man is to be sent to my mother to be killed.
It originally had some value and could be used to lure out Xue Qiansha, but with Mo Lichun from Cangjian Villa, it became useless.
Go to hell soon.
Bai Xuan glanced at the Longxiang Temple, then flew back to the Peony Pavilion, his primordial spirit returning to his physical body.
