Chapter 33 First Move Arrangement
Chapter 33 First Move Arrangement
Wang Chan's face was deathly pale, her head bowed even lower, her voice trembling with sobs: "Father, I only wanted to bring glory to the sect, I didn't want to lose to Su Mixin of the Thousand Illusions Sect..."
"Bring glory?" Wang Tiansheng sneered, his eyes full of disappointment. "You're bringing trouble to the sect! You saw Qi Danyan's attitude when the Thousand Illusions Sect left this time. Although he didn't say it explicitly, his resolute attitude clearly showed that he held a grudge for today."
Wang Chan trembled all over, his robes soaked with cold sweat, and he couldn't utter a single word.
Looking at his nephew's state, Wang Tiangu felt sorry for him and stepped forward to persuade him, "Brother, Chan'er is still young and just made a mistake this time. Please forgive him this time."
"Foolish?" Wang Tiansheng glared at him. "It's because you've spoiled him too much that he's become so lawless and arrogant!"
He looked at Wang Chan and said sternly, "For the next six months before you go to the Yan family in Yue Kingdom, you must not leave your cave. Behave yourself and focus on your cultivation."
Wang Chan's heart skipped a beat: "Yes, Your son obeys."
Wang Tiansheng waved his hand, his voice weary: "You may all leave."
Wang Chan felt as if he had been granted a pardon. After bowing respectfully, he quickly left the cave.
Wang Tiangu also slowly walked away.
Silence returned to the cave. Wang Tiansheng stared at the dark night sky outside the window, his brows furrowed.
……
The group returned to the Thousand Illusions Sect, with Su Mixin first taking care of Su Han and following along.
After everything was settled, the Myriad Transformations Demon made the first move.
He took out a Buddhist magic weapon shaped like a vajra, its light clear and bright, exuding a righteous Buddhist aura that could purify evil and filth, and was specifically designed to subdue the malevolent and malevolent energy of the world.
The magical artifact shimmered with spiritual light, gently covering Su Han's empty, severed arm wound. The dense, lingering evil energy that had been entrenched in his flesh and meridians was gradually and thoroughly cleansed and eradicated, preventing the evil energy from invading his body and corrupting his cultivation.
Once the malevolent energy dissipated, the sect's on-duty disciples immediately arrived as ordered, presenting several rare Bone-Setting and Flesh-Regenerating Pills.
Finally, Qi Danyan personally sat down and cast a spell, activating a mysterious and unpredictable demonic art.
Strands of black and gold magic light wrapped around Su Han's severed arm wound, reconnecting tendons and bones, regenerating flesh and blood, and harmonizing meridians. After the spell was performed, the severe injury to his arm was completely healed, as if he had never suffered such a serious injury.
Seeing that Su Han's injuries had completely healed and there were no more hidden dangers, Su Mi's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down, and she then returned to her Mi Xin Palace.
After a short rest, he sent a palace attendant to summon Li Chongyue and Lu Xin to come before him.
Inside the Mi Xin Hall, the tea room was elegant and the aroma of tea wafted through the air. Su Mi Xin sat upright in the main seat at the head of the table, her fingertips lightly tapping the edge of the table as she pondered the next steps, her expression calm and collected.
The hall was silent. Li Chongyue and Lu Xin stood at the lower end, both holding their breath and looking intently, waiting quietly for his instructions.
After a long while, Su Mixin raised her eyes and looked at Lu Xin first, and said slowly, "Elder Lu, there is a task that I need you to do in person."
Lu Xin immediately cupped his hands and replied, "Young Master, please give your orders."
"I received intelligence that the mortal emperor of Yue Kingdom, the Yue Emperor, has obtained some demonic inheritance and established a cult called the Black Fiend Cult."
"Go to Yuejing, find this Yue emperor, force him to hand over a tattered map that looks like a white brocade handkerchief, is slightly yellowed, and is made of an unknown material, and then bring it back to me."
Lu Xin cupped his hands in greeting: "Young Master, rest assured, we will bring this incomplete map back intact."
Su Mixin nodded and reminded him, "Be careful. First, don't give this Yue Emperor any time to forge or switch things. He's treacherous and cunning, so be on guard. He should be keeping this incomplete map in his storage bag, carrying it close to his body."
"Secondly, don't kill him directly, and don't destroy the organization either. Be a bit aggressive and arrogant, and with your late-stage Core Formation cultivator, you can directly intimidate them, and they won't dare to resist."
"This way you can pretend to be a cultivator from the Ghost Spirit Sect and cause some trouble for the Ghost Spirit Sect when they try to recruit these scumbags in Yue Kingdom."
Upon hearing this, Lu Xin immediately laughed: "Young Master is brilliant; this plan is excellent."
Li Chongyue interjected, "Senior Brother Lu, I happen to have a Soul-Capturing Banner magic artifact here, with a few demon souls inside. You can borrow it to demonstrate your ability to exorcise ghosts and command demons, making your impersonation of a Ghost Spirit Sect cultivator even more convincing."
Lu Xin's eyes lit up. "This is the perfect plan, nothing could be more suitable!"
In fact, Su Mixin did not want to kill Emperor Yue or let Lu Xin destroy the Black Fiend Sect, mainly because she was too lazy to intercept this small opportunity that originally belonged to Old Demon Han, since she did not think much of the incomplete Xuan Yin Technique.
Of course, they won't hesitate to seize any great opportunities they set their sights on.
After assigning Lu Xin the task, Su Mixin turned to look at Li Chongyue.
"Old Li, can you arrange for a few spies to infiltrate Yue Kingdom and gather intelligence?"
Li Chongyue was somewhat puzzled and asked, "Young Master, our Thousand Illusion Sect has already deployed quite a few people in Yue Kingdom, and secret reports are sent up regularly."
Su Mixin frowned slightly and continued, "The main target of this batch of spies sent to Yue Kingdom is the Yan family, the number one Core Formation family in Yue Kingdom, in Linzhou."
"Keep a close eye on the Yan family, especially Yan Ruyan, the member of the Yan family with the Heavenly Spirit Root who has now joined the Hidden Moon Sect."
"Any slightest disturbance should be reported back immediately."
Li Chongyue quickly cupped his hands in greeting: "Yes, young master."
Su Mixin nodded and continued, "Also, find someone to help me send a message to Tian Buque, the young master of the Hehuan Sect, and tell him that I will be waiting for him in the capital of Jiang Kingdom in six months. I have something very important to discuss with him. Also, tell him not to cause any trouble and to spread the word."
Li Chongyue nodded in agreement: "Yes, young master."
To deal with Wang Chan, Su Mixin planned to call on Ueda Buque, who had already appeared in the Yanlingbao incident.
Why not win this person over to work for Wang Chan?
After Lu Xin and Li Chongyue left and she carried out his instructions, Su Mixin got up, thought for a moment, and decided to go to Milian Palace. There were some things she needed to report to her father.
In the Mi Lian Palace, Su Yunluo was studying a chess manual in the tea room.
For Su Yunluo, who was already stuck at the peak of the mid-Nascent Soul stage, meditation and cultivation had reached a dead end.
He needs that opportunity to break through, or a rare and precious treasure to help him break through the barrier between realms.
Su Yunluo, who was engrossed in the game of chess, suddenly smiled and raised the corners of his lips, because he sensed with his divine sense that his son had entered the Mi Lian Palace and was slowly walking towards him.
Footsteps lightly landed on the steps of the tea room. After Su Mixin pushed open the door and entered the tea room, she composed herself and bowed slightly to Su Yunluo, who was seated at the head of the table.
"Father."
Su Yunluo closed the old chess manual in her hand, her fingertips lightly touching the edge of the chessboard. Her gaze was gentle as she looked up at him and said, "Come here. Dan Yan has already told me everything about your encounter with the Ghost Spirit Sect during your trip. I know the cause and effect, and what happened during the battle."
Su Mixin was not surprised to hear this.
Qi Danyan is meticulous and acts prudently. Upon his return, he will immediately report the changes that occurred while he was away to his father, which saves his father the trouble of repeating the whole story.
He stepped forward and said frankly, "Since Father already knows the general outline, I will not go into the details."
"This time, Wang Chan, the young master of the Ghost Spirit Sect, has been aggressive and has repeatedly provoked trouble. He even tried to kill me and Su Han. The feud between the two sides has been completely severed and there is no room for reconciliation."
Su Yunluo remained calm and slowly nodded: "From your accounts, it is clear that Wang Chan, as the young master of the Ghost Spirit Sect, is ruthless and vicious. He has always been domineering and bullying. Having suffered a loss this time, he must harbor resentment and will surely seek revenge in the future. Do you have any plans in mind?"
Su Mixin's lips suddenly curled into a sly smile, and a calculating glint flashed in her eyes: "Father, I plan to strike first and lay the groundwork in advance to give that brat Wang Chan a good beating."
Upon hearing this, Su Yunluo raised an eyebrow slightly, gave a soft "hmm," her tone calm, but her eyes held a hint of approval, waiting for him to elaborate.
Su Mixin calmly sat down opposite Su Yunluo, picked up the teapot, and leisurely poured herself a cup of tea. She then slowly revealed her plan:
"Several years ago, before I began my demon-hunting journey, I noticed the Yan family, the first Core Formation family in Yue."
"When the spy gave me the intelligence, he noted the historical origins of the Yan family. The ancestors of the Yan family came from the Ghost Spirit Sect."
"During my stay in Yue Kingdom, the local cultivation world had already spread the word that the Yan family had produced a female cultivator with a rare Heavenly Spiritual Root, named Yan Ruyan. At a young age, she joined the major sect, the Hidden Moon Sect, and was the most outstanding and prominent new generation of genius in the Yan family and even the entire Yue Kingdom's cultivation world."
"Father, you know that I have loved studying in the library since I was a child. My Thousand Illusions Sect has secretly and carefully collected information on the first demonic technique, the Blood Spirit Great Art, in the Ghost Spirit Sect's 'Ten Thousand Spirits True Scripture'."
"In my guess, Wang Chan possesses a dark attribute spiritual root, and the Blood Spirit Great Art, such a heaven-defying demonic technique, is most suitable for him to cultivate. The Wang family would never give up such an opportunity."
"As for the Blood Spirit Technique, it is best to have two cultivators, a male and a female, with high spiritual roots cultivate together to prevent backlash. I have already heard the news that the Wang family is looking for a Daoist partner for Wang Chan during my time at the Ghost Spirit Sect."
Su Mixin chuckled, "Within the Yue Kingdom, the Yan family, which has a close relationship with his Ghost Spirit Sect, has produced a woman with a Heavenly Spirit Root, and she is of suitable age."
"I suspect that the Ghost Spirit Sect has already identified the Yan family as a key target for recruitment, intending to use this connection to facilitate Wang Chan and Yan Ruyan's marriage and dual cultivation, thereby solidifying Wang Chan's cultivation foundation in one fell swoop."
"Secondly, winning over the Yan family will not only weaken the power of the cultivation world in Yue, but also make it easier to govern the cultivation world in Yue after the victory."
"Thirdly, we can take advantage of the Yan family's rebellion against Yue to secretly set a trap for the seven factions of Yue and severely defeat them."
"The Ghost Spirit Sect will certainly not miss this opportunity to achieve three goals at once."
Su Mixin gently stroked the warm cup with her fingertips, a sharp glint in her eyes, her tone carrying a confident certainty: "Since Wang Chan and the Ghost Spirit Sect are so eager for this opportunity, then I will deliberately interfere and snatch it away from them."
