There were many large and small sects in the Demon Cult, and they were messy. Although they were all branches of the Demon Cult, they were not harmonious. They schemed against each other just to have a strong force and get a hundred responses from the Saint Cult in their hearts. However, there were very few people who could reach this level. The black-hearted old man could be considered one of the successful ones.
Although there were many branches of the Demon Cult, they all belonged to the same cult. They had the same main hall and sacred hall, the same worshipers, the Dark Bright Holy Mother and the Heavenly Fiend Ming King, and the same cult master, the 42nd cult master of the Demon Cult.
Although the Cult Master was the leader of the Demonic Sect, he didn't have any power. He couldn't mobilize any of the people of any sect, couldn't command the situation for even a moment, and couldn't even step out of the gate of the Divine Palace. He could only end his life in the Divine Palace like a puppet,'protected' by the experts sent by the sects to guard the Divine Palace.
In fact, the reason why the dignified Demon Cult Master had fallen to this state was because of the self-harm order given by the second generation Demon Cult Master.
It was said that when the first leader of the Demonic Sect founded the sect, the entire sect was united and went through great ambitions to build the world. At that time, in order to strengthen the foundation and expand the scope of the sacred cult, the first cult leader sent out his trusted followers who had made contributions and divided them into different groups. Unexpectedly, he planted the root of trouble.
Death was inevitable for everyone, and even the sect master with shocking power was no exception. The first cult master died of old age and ascended to heaven, and the second cult master Chali succeeded to the throne. The various factions were arrogant and gradually became dissatisfied with Chali, and it became more and more intense, often disobeying orders. Perhaps Cha Li had seen the Demonic Sect's development too quickly, or perhaps the heavens were bored and deliberately made fun of the Demonic Sect, Cha Li finally used force and some extraordinary methods to suppress the various sects in a fit of anger. After a bloody battle, although Cha Li won the final victory, he also lost the trust of his subordinates.
Eighty years after Chali's victory, he had been so pleased with himself that he had lost his prestige as a monarch by ordering his subordinates around. First, his Left General led his troops to form another faction. Although it was still a branch of the Demon Cult, it no longer listened to Cha Li's commands. Just as Cha Li was about to use force to suppress him, his right-hand general suddenly rebelled and raided the Divine Temple to capture Cha Li, forcing him to hand over the position of Hierarch in front of everyone.
Cha Li knew that he would die if he advanced or retreated, so he thought of a self-mutilating order at the critical moment. The content of the order was to acknowledge the existence of the branch of the Demonic Sect and support the exhibition. In order to remove the worries of the various sects, the leader was willing to give up all his rights and no longer ask about all matters. He would stay by the side of the Sacred Lady of Youming and the Heavenly Demon Ming King for life, and the branch of the Demonic Sect would take over the exhibition.
With the mutilating order, Cha Li finally managed to keep his life, but he also lived his life as a producer. However, the self-mutilating order had not been changed until now. Although the sect masters of the later generations wanted to change it, they were powerless. Because the branches of the demonic sect were afraid of repeating the scene of Chali Blood Pressure, they did not forget to send people to 'guard' the sect master during the internal strife.
Although the previous cult masters had no power or influence, there had never been a case of killing a cult master to replace him. This could be considered a blessing for the Demonic Sect. Eight hundred years ago, the black-hearted old man had expanded the Blood Refinement Hall to become the largest sect in the Demonic Sect. However, he did not want to be cursed as a sinner of the Demonic Sect, so he killed the Cult Master and replaced him.
In short, the Demon Cult Master being able to pass down to this day was also considered an anomaly. Currently, the 41st Puppet Cult Master of the Devil Cult, who was also the 42nd Cult Master of the Devil Cult, Duan Yan, was sitting in the main hall of the Devil Cult. He was recalling the tragic history of the Cult Master of the Devil Cult and sighed.
" Ka!" The door of the Demon Cult Hall opened wide, and four people walked straight in. The first person was wearing a light purple dress and a black veil. She gave off a dignified aura. She was You Ji.
A little behind her was a young man. He didn't look outstanding, but the ring on his finger caught the attention of Sect Leader Duan Yan. It was made of green jade and had a dragon body on it. It was the relic of Azure Dragon that White Tiger found in the southern border, the Cosmos Clear Light Ring. The young man with the ring was Azure Dragon's first disciple, Saint Envoy Yan Zhong, who had replaced Azure Dragon.
The last two people were Duan Yan's old acquaintances, the muscular White Tiger and the Black Tortoise dressed in brocade clothes.
"Greetings, Cult Master."”After that, they found their own seats and sat down.
Duan Yan was already used to their rudeness. He revealed a fake smile and said softly,""What is it that made the four Saint Emissaries come personally? Haha, if there's anything, just let someone know.”
You Ji didn't stand up. She said seriously," Reporting to Cult Master, the Ghost King Sect has been here for several days. They have brought countless murders to the Divine Temple. The whole sect feels guilty and doesn't dare to stain the Holy Land with blood. Therefore, we have come to ask for your resignation."”
How could Duan Yan not allow it? What was the use of him not allowing it?
The Ghost King Sect could come and go as they pleased. How could he, the sect master, control it? He could only console them." It's good that the Ghost King Sect doesn't stay here any longer. Anyway, the enemy of the Holy Church is in front of us. It won't be good if we hurt the people of the Ghost King Sect. Let's go."”
The four holy emissaries were not ordinary people, and anyone could hear the pejoling in their words. Faced with Duan Yan's sarcastic words, the four of them did not change their expressions, as if they had not heard anything. Duan Yan saw that the four of them did not answer. It was obvious that they did not take him seriously. He was even angrier in his heart, but his expression did not change and he still smiled.
"You can leave. I will definitely defend the Holy Cathedral and never abandon this place.”Duan Yan said with a smile. Anyway, he couldn't leave even if he wanted to, and there was no danger in staying in the Divine Temple.
Looking at the four holy emissaries, they were still the same. They did not express their stance or answer.
"I can deal with the enemy alone. You guys should leave quickly so that you won't be implicated.”Duan Yan said again, but no one paid attention to him. It was as if he was putting on a one-man show and asking for a snub. Duan Yan was so angry that he did not say anything else. The hall was instantly very quiet.
The four holy emissaries ignored Duan Yan because they were worried about the situation outside. As for Duan Yan, who was an unimportant person, they naturally did not want to be distracted by him.
A moment later, Yan Zhong noticed the awkward atmosphere and said to Duan Yan,""Cult Master, what do you mean? Could it be that the people of my Ghost King Sect are afraid of death and deliberately abandoned the Saint Sect?”
Duan Yan knew that this new Saint Emissary was not easy to deal with, so he smiled apologetically.""Haha, Saint Envoy Yan Zhong misunderstood. When did I say that?”
Yan Zhong snorted coldly." The enemy is from our Ghost King Sect. Now that we have left, the enemy is also from the Holy Church. Naturally, they will not attack the Divine Temple again. This crisis will be resolved. Even if they enter the Divine Temple, they will not disrespect the Youming Holy Mother and the Tiansha Ming King, nor will they attack you. Why do you need to deal with them alone?”
Yan Zhong's face was filled with anger and his tone was heavy. Duan Yan was controlled by others, so he naturally wouldn't be foolish enough to provoke Yan Zhong. He fell silent on the Cult Master's seat and didn't say anything else.
Yan Zhongyu's anger hadn't subsided yet. He suddenly stood up and was about to scold her when You Ji looked at him coldly."Sit down and be quiet."
Yan Zhong didn't dare to offend You Ji, so he sat down. You Ji saw that he was unwilling and said coldly,""You must always remember your identity.”
Yan Zhong sat down and was stunned. He had actually gotten angry over a small matter just now, while the other three Sacred Emissaries were calm. It seemed that his self-control was not enough.
The four holy emissaries sat quietly, each thinking about their own matters. Duan Yan did not say anything else. If they were angered, they would not have a good ending. It was good that he was quiet. Anyway, the four holy emissaries ignored his existence.
The door of the main hall was wide open. From afar, she saw Yan Hui running in from outside.
Yan Hui ran all the way here, but he didn't seem to be panting. After running into the hall, he reported in an extremely stable voice,""Four Holy Emissaries, everyone in the Ghost King Sect is ready.”
White Tiger and Black Tortoise were both delighted. You Ji's face couldn't be seen due to her veil, so she probably smiled as well. She, Yan Zhong, and the other three stood up at the same time and said to Yan Zhong,""Alright, I'll do it immediately."
He replied and retreated. You Ji replied to Duan Yan with a trace of respect,""Cult Master, we'll take our leave now.”
Duan Yan stood up and smiled.”
The four holy emissaries returned the greeting and walked out together, not even closing the door. Duan Yan stood alone in the main hall and watched them leave. Yan Yan muttered to himself,""Why? Why should I be bullied? I'm the cult master of the number one cult in the world. Why is my fate so unbearable? I refuse to accept this, I refuse to accept this! I must change my fate! I swear!"
Outside the temple, everyone from the Ghost King Sect was ready.
The four holy emissaries slowly walked out and stood on a high spot in the temple, looking down at everyone. Everyone from the Ghost King Sect was delighted. They cheered for the four holy emissaries, and their faces were full of pride.
You Ji looked at Yan Hui, who was standing at the front, and said softly,""Is everyone here?"
"Everyone is here, but…" Yan Hui replied respectfully.
"But what?" You Ji asked.
" What?" Yan Hui's face stiffened." I just haven't informed the Deputy Sect Leader yet."”
"Don't worry about him, he will escape on his own.”"Let's begin," You Ji said to Yan Zhong beside her.”
Yan Zhong walked at the front and pressed his hand toward the Ghost King Sect. The Ghost King Sect immediately quieted down and watched Saint Envoy Yan Zhong's every move.
It was these people who had led them out of the dangerous place and to this place.
It was these people above that gave them the ability to survive, and they escaped from battle after battle.
It was these people above who were going to bring them from the land of peril to the land of hope today.
These people were their hope.
They were silently, quietly, and pitifully waiting for them to lead them.
Yan Zhong stood on a high place with his hands behind his back. He looked down at the people below and shouted,""Today, I will take everyone out of the Divine Temple and go to a place where we will no longer be afraid of the Ghost Extermination Sect. That place will be where our headquarters will be located.”
Everyone from the Wang Clan shouted in unison.
Yan Zhong smiled and pointed into the distance."" Target, deep valley of Hu Qi Mountain."
