After the Battle of Luoyang City, Gu Nan's life returned to "peace" — he stayed in the manor every day. There were people serving him when he went in and out, and there were also people delivering information about Extraordinaires. All he needed to do was go out and harvest Sin Points.
But just as he was enjoying his comfortable life, the Immortal Demon World was in turmoil.
Ming Lou's years of preparation had finally paid off. The moment they launched their attack, it was as fast as lightning. With Gu Nan's interference, the elites of the Six Evil Paths fell one after another. Very few of them were able to fight back.
In terms of foundation, professionalism, and control over the natives, the Samoyed Sect couldn't compare to Ming Lou in any aspect. Their defeat was already set in stone.
As time passed, the righteous sects won one battle after another. Although some Transcendents died, it didn't affect the overall situation.
Another month passed, more than half of the Evil Path Sects were wiped out. Sects of all sizes suffered countless casualties. Even the leading Six Sects were scattered.
In the propaganda of the righteous sects, the Evil Path Sects were like stray dogs, fleeing in panic, waiting for the righteous cultivators to surround and kill them.
"Teacher, there's a letter for you."
Gu Nan sat alone at the side, sipping his tea and reading the frontline battle report. Yan Xiaoxiao suddenly rushed in and said.
"Oh?" Gu Nan raised his eyebrows slightly, showing some curiosity on his face.
Ming Lou hadn't sent him a letter for a long time. It seemed that the unceremonious scolding of Ye Zhiyu still had some effect.
Of course, this was also because of the situation. Ever since the battle at Jing Nan, Gu Nan's reputation had spread to both sides. It wasn't easy to secretly attack him anymore.
On the other hand, when Transcendents started to flee, it wasn't easy to catch them.
Even if they could catch up, they wouldn't be able to wait for Gu Nan.
So Gu Nan didn't force it. He waited for the main mission to be completed and received a considerable reward.
At this critical moment, Ming Lou sent him a letter. What was it about? When Gu Nan opened the letter and read it, he couldn't help but burst into laughter. His laughter made Yan Xiaoxiao, who was beside him, curious.
Gu Nan noticed her expression and handed the letter over to her. "Take a look."
Without the slightest hesitation, Yan Xiaoxiao quickly read through the contents, then exclaimed, "The Demon Lord has already been captured alive? Are they going to hold a ceremony? "
The content of the letter, however, informed Gu Nan that the Demon Monarch had been captured, and the people of the Righteous Faction wanted to behead the Demon Monarch in the Righteous Faction's ceremony three days later as a sacrifice to the ancestors.
At the end of the letter, he invited Gu Nan to go with him.
"Teacher, are you going?"
"Of course … I'm not going." Gu Nan shook his head firmly.
"Ah …"
Yan Xiaoxiao didn't quite understand Gu Nan's thoughts. Now that the world was settled, the Righteous path was in power. With Master's strength, he naturally did not fear anyone. But participating in the Righteous path's grand ceremony was also a way to establish his own position.
As long as Master went, he would definitely obtain the corresponding position and become famous overnight … As expected of Master, he was not even tempted by such fame and fortune …
Gu Nan wasn't as complicated as she thought. He patted her shoulder and said, "The Holy Son and Holy Maiden of Yinhua Tree Gate, have you found them?"
"No." Yan Xiaoxiao shook her head calmly. "The war was too chaotic, we couldn't find any traces of them. Perhaps they have already died in the chaos …"
Speaking of this, Yan Xiaoxiao suddenly smiled. "Actually, Teacher, I no longer care about the family feud from back then."
"It's best if you can think that way." Gu Nan nodded. "This world is very big. Strive to advance to the Transcendence level as soon as possible … Oh right, do you want to know why I didn't go? "
Yan Xiaoxiao couldn't quite accept his jumping train of thought. After being stunned for a while, she hurriedly shook her head.
"They invited me to kill people, but I won't kill people without any benefits."
"Kill people? The outcome has been decided. Who else do you want to kill? "Yan Xiaoxiao suddenly thought of something. She even felt that the remnants of the Evil Path still existed and would make a comeback.
"Of course we're going to kill those of the Righteous path!" Gu Nan said matter-of-factly. "You don't think that we, the Immortal Diviners, are really just here to help, do you?"
…
Three days later, the Righteous Path's grand ceremony.
Countless heroes of the Righteous path gathered. After a long sacrificial ceremony, the Heaven-Seeking Sect's leader personally cut off the head of the Demonic King Wang Yutong, announcing the official end of the year-long battle between the Righteous and Evil paths.
The disciples and followers of the various sects celebrated and cheered that the era of the Righteous path was coming.
However, extreme joy turned to sorrow. Countless unknown killers suddenly appeared and massacred the upper echelons of the Righteous path.
This battle only lasted for a few hours, but all the upper echelons of the five sects were killed. From then on, the Righteous path declined, and they were no better than the Evil path, which had become the target of scorn.
No one knew where these killers came from. The few people who knew about the existence of the "Immortal Diviners" also unknowingly decreased until they completely disappeared.
…
In the manor of the Blue Dragon Hall headquarters, Gu Nan sat in the guest room. Opposite him was a rare guest.
"I thought that you would be busy hunting down the Righteous path's experts and wouldn't have the time to come here," Gu Nan said with a relaxed expression as he looked at the person in front of him with a faint smile.
This was the first time that Tang Xuan had come to Gu Nan's lair. If she could, she really didn't want to come here.
"The people of the Samoyed Heaven have all retreated. It's only a matter of time before they hunt down the natives." Tang Xuan's expression was calm. "For us, your attitude is the most important thing."
"Me? I don't have any attitude! "Gu Nan said innocently." Whether you want resources or talents, it's none of my business. I'm just raising a disciple here and have the time to come here for a vacation. "
Tang Xuan looked at him deeply and said in a low voice, "I hope you can remember what you said today. About Mo Jiaqi … "
"I haven't seen Mo Jiaqi in a long time," Gu Nan interrupted and spread his hands.
Tang Xuan gritted her teeth, feeling a little annoyed. Gu Nan was too cunning. Every step he took was right on the line. It made people feel annoyed if they didn't flare up, but if they did, they would feel that the gains weren't worth the losses.
Whether it was killing Mo Jiaqi or injuring Ye Zhiyu, they were all within the scope of the mission. The organization didn't suffer any substantial losses.
Under such circumstances, the organization wouldn't put in the effort to kill a Transcendent expert like him.
She didn't know that digging out the benefits from the mission was something that players were best at.
Since Gu Nan didn't want to admit it, Tang Xuan didn't say anything else and immediately stood up to leave. But before she left, she suddenly smiled.
"Right, when we were killing the Righteous path's experts, someone said that he knew you, so I brought him along. Treat it as a farewell gift."
"Huh?" Gu Nan was stunned. After thinking for a long time, he really couldn't remember who he knew from the Righteous path.
And even if he knew him, why would Tang Xuan be so kind as to specially bring him over?
The next moment, Gu Nan couldn't help but laugh.
A carriage slowly drove over. The curtain was lifted, revealing the figure of a woman. This woman's body was glowing with white light. Very few people could get close to her.
But her expression was abnormally pale. It was obvious that it wasn't easy to support this white light. She was already an arrow at the end of its flight.
