Wu left the valley and quickly reported to the Martial Sect about his encounter with the cultivators. After that, he rushed back to the Martial Sect without stopping, only to find that the atmosphere had become much more solemn. [Set up.]
She walked into the meeting hall and saw the sect master sitting high up in the middle of the hall, with two elders sitting on his left and right. Her expression couldn't help but turn cold, she had not seen such a big scene for many years.
All the people in charge of the Martial Sect were gathered together, it must be for an important matter. This time, they were obviously waiting for her, which meant that the matter of the demon clan had attracted their attention.
Wu bowed to everyone with a serious expression, then stood in the middle of the hall like a javelin, waiting for everyone to ask.
The Martial Sect's Sect Leader was not old, in his forties, he was in his prime. His thick eyebrows were raised high, his face was resolute, and he had an imposing aura that was not angry.
In addition, his skin was extremely good, sparkling and translucent. It was a level that many women could only dream of.
However, in front of an expert, this point was enough to show that his martial arts had reached a superb level, because this was the effect of washing the marrow.
Only by cultivating to the Grandmaster Realm would one be able to wash their marrow, but not everyone in the Grandmaster Realm would be able to wash their marrow. This required luck.
When a person washed their marrow, all the impurities in their body would be completely expelled, and the inner strength in their body would circulate faster, and they could store more inner strength.
Every time Wu saw the Sect Leader, he would not hide his admiration for him. He did not know when he would be able to have the same cultivation as the Sect Leader.
"Wu, we have a rough understanding of your situation this time, but there are still many details that we need to verify with you." The Sect Leader said with a loud voice.
Wu bowed respectfully. "Yes, Sect Leader."
If Tang Zheng saw her respectful appearance, he would definitely be shocked. He had always thought that this arrogant woman would not bow her head to anyone.
The Sect Leader nodded to an elder below. The elder accepted the order and asked in a deep voice, "Wu, have the demons you encountered been completely annihilated?"
"Yes, all the demons present have been completely annihilated." Wu said with certainty.
"Is that Demon God the same?"
"Yes, the Demonic God was struck by that mysterious person's arrow, exploding and dying, turning into bloody light that filled the sky." Wu described.
The Elder turned his head and looked at the Sect Leader. The Sect Leader's face darkened as he sighed and said, "Wu, do you know that the Demon God is not dead?"
"He didn't die? How is that possible?" Wu was shocked. "I saw him being shot by an arrow with my own eyes and exploding to death."
The Sect Leader shook his head and said, "Cultivators have many secret techniques, especially when the other party is a Demon God. How can he die so easily?"
He had not seen it with his own eyes, but he had such confidence. Martial could not help but be surprised, but he did not dare to doubt the Sect Master's words, because she had always believed in his words since she was young.
"Sect Master, doesn't that mean that this Demon God will come out in the future? That will set off a bloody storm." Martial said in fear.
The Sect Leader sighed and said, "Although this Demon God is not dead, he must have been seriously injured. It won't be easy for him to recover, so from now on, we must pay attention to the information from everywhere."
An elder said, "Speaking of intelligence, the one with the most complete intelligence system in the world is the Li Palace. Why don't we send someone to the Li Palace and deepen our cooperation?"
The Sect Leader pondered for a moment, then agreed: "This suggestion is not bad, the Li Palace has been the closest to the secular world these years, the intelligence is perfect, since the cultivators have invaded, then we should join forces with the Li Palace and guard against them, we must not let these cultivators act recklessly."
"Then who should we send?"
The Sect Leader looked at Wu and said, "The Li Palace has never received male guests, so, Wu, you should make another trip to the Li Palace."
"Yes, Sect Leader." Wu accepted the order.
"Also, did you find out anything about that mysterious person?" The Sect Leader asked again.
The elders all shook their heads, then looked at Wu. Wu said, "This mysterious person's cultivation is not low, and he also has that divine bow, as if he is being assisted by a god. Furthermore, he is very different from the Demon Clan."
"Hmph, what's the difference? Cultivators are all jackals of the same tribe, don't be fooled by him and speak up for him. "An elder said angrily.
The others nodded their heads: "Martial, cultivators are incomparably cunning, don't be fooled by them, if you meet them in the future, you must do your best to kill them."
"Yes sir!" Wu did not refute, but his mind could not help but recall that ordinary face without any special features, as well as his attitude towards the Demon Clan.
He … It seemed that he did not wish to see the people suffer. It was not a pretense, but a sincere one.
"Are cultivators really as despicable and shameless as the Sect Leader and the elders said?"
This question surfaced in her mind, and she was instantly shocked. In front of the Sect Leader and the elders, how could she doubt them in her heart?
She felt that this was blasphemy towards the Martial Sect, and hurriedly lowered her head in shame.
"Also, go to the Li Palace and inquire about the identity of this mysterious person. Maybe the Li Palace will have some clues, since this person is a cultivator, and his cultivation is not weak, we naturally cannot let him go." The Sect Leader said.
Mentioning the identity of the mysterious person, Wu could not help but think of the jade tablet. His heart skipped a beat, and just as he was about to say something about the jade pendant, he glanced at the few elders and forcefully swallowed his words.
The Sect Leader noticed her expression and said without batting an eyelid: "Alright, that's all for today. Elders, go back and send people to keep an eye on the situation. The situation is getting worse and worse, the Demon Clan must have left behind more than one backup plan. Perhaps there are other people who have obtained the inheritance of the Demon Clan and summoned the Demon Clan from other places to this world.
"Yes, Sect Master, we were really lucky this time. If we hadn't accidentally found out that the terrorists might have the support of cultivators and followed the clues to find the melon, then we might not have found the terrorist's base camp and thus destroyed their sacrificial summoning." An elder sighed.
Back then, she had been wondering why the Sect Leader would send her to the military. It turned out that he had long sensed that the terrorist organization was related to cultivators and was only borrowing the power of the military to investigate this matter.
However, this was indeed a fluke. However, if not for the fact that Tang Zheng had killed all the leaders of the terrorist organizations in the courtyard, she would have been able to find out about this news earlier. Perhaps she would have been able to act before the sacrifice and successfully stop the sacrifice.
Therefore, she did not have the slightest good impression of this Tang Zheng.
However, she did not think that if they had arrived at the valley one step earlier, the terrorists would have fought back. Furthermore, the demons would have taken the opportunity to escape and disappear without a trace. Then, they would have been able to summon sacrifices in other places. That way, the Demon God would have been able to silently and peacefully descend into this world.
The elders retreated, and the Sect Leader walked towards the back of the meeting hall. Wu followed closely behind him, and when the two of them reached a garden at the back, the Sect Leader stopped and looked at the blossoming flowers in the garden. He said, "You seem to have something to say to me?"
"Yes, Sect Leader. This time, I almost couldn't come back. The mysterious person clearly wanted to kill me, and he didn't hesitate to kill me."
"Oh." The Sect Leader was slightly surprised. "Why did you come back alive?"
"Because I saw a jade pendant." Wu was silent for a moment, then said.
"What jade pendant? It can actually save your life."
"A jade pendant with the word 'Martial' carved on it." After Wu finished speaking, he stared at the Sect Leader.
His entire body froze, and his originally abyss-like aura suddenly changed. He turned around and looked at Wu, and his gaze seemed to be able to pierce through time and space, landing on Wu's body.
Even though she was a precelestial martial artist, she still felt as if she was about to be suppressed into the ground by this gaze. A trace of fear spread out from the bottom of her heart.
She didn't know why her words would cause such a huge reaction from the Sect Leader, but at this moment, she didn't dare to say anything. She could only lower her head deeply.
After a long while, the pressure disappeared. She slowly raised her head and found that the Sect Leader's expression had returned to normal. He looked at her and asked, "You're saying that cultivator has that jade pendant on him?"
"Yes, it's hanging around his neck." Wu said.
"Describe his appearance again."
Wu Gong tried his best to recall every detail of the other party's appearance, and then tried his best to restore this face with words.
The Sect Leader muttered to himself, but his eyebrows were tightly knitted together.
"Sect Leader, this jade pendant seems to be very similar to the one on your body." Wu said carefully, and then his gaze landed on the jade pendant on the Sect Leader's waist.
This jade pendant was the same size as Tang Zheng's jade pendant, and the patterns on it were exactly the same. It was obvious that it was carved by the same sculptor, and the only difference was the word on it. On this jade pendant, there was not the word "Martial", but the word "Sect".
Wu had seen this jade pendant since he was young, which was why he was able to recognize the jade pendant on Tang Zheng's neck with a single glance. If it wasn't for the different word, the two jade pendants would be exactly the same, and it would be hard to tell if they were real or fake.
The Sect Leader took off the jade pendant from his waist and stared straight at it. His eyes became exceptionally deep, as if he was immersed in deep memories.
"Sect Leader, is that jade pendant also a Martial Sect item?" Wu asked carefully. Back then, she had insisted that Tang Zheng's jade pendant was a Martial Sect item. It was a preconceived notion, but now, in front of the Sect Leader, she did not dare to be so arbitrary.
The Sect Leader muttered to himself for a long time before nodding heavily. "It is indeed a Martial Sect item. It is a pair with this jade pendant. One martial, one sect. The name of the Martial Sect is because of these two jade pendants."
"What, the Martial Sect is actually named because of these two jade pendants?" Even though Wu was calm, he was still extremely shocked by this news.
She had grown up in the Martial Sect since she was young, but she had never heard of this matter. There was actually such a saying about the origins of the Martial Sect, and more importantly, how could that cultivator have such an important jade pendant to the Martial Sect?
Countless questions surfaced in her heart, and she really wanted to ask the Sect Leader clearly.
"What are you two whispering about here?" Suddenly, a voice rang out.
