The Eight Treasures Spiritual Lord died for no reason, causing many disciples of the Sky Heart Demon Sect to die as well. This change not only caused the hearts of the other disciples of the Devil Sect to waver, but also caused a huge earthquake in the entire Devil Dao.
After that, the Sky Heart Demon Sect chased after The Witch and sent out the Sky Demon Order, summoning all the major sects to kill her. The reason was that The Witch killed her master to break free from the blood oath and betray the Diabolism.
As an elder of the Yin Ming School, the Demon Dragon Body received the news very quickly.
Ji Feichen was talking to Yuan Xi in a mansion in the capital. There was a bronze mirror in front of him and his senior brother, Yuan Xi, was on the other side.
"Senior Brother, do you mean that I have to do this?"
"How would the Black Source and the others dare to interfere? Moreover, the Spiritual Sect's Holy Lady is still unknown, so they won't dare to act rashly. "
Ji Feichen played with a purple sand lotus root and sneered, "So, they're pushing this troublesome matter to me?"
Yuan Xi was also very comfortable on the other side, with two maids massaging his back and legs. He said, "The order sent by the Sky Heart Demon Sect is considered a project that the Elder of Foreign Affairs is responsible for. You control the subsidiary forces of the Black Sect and have many subordinates. You're also the elder in charge of external relations. The sect wants you to be in charge of this matter. Although I tried to stop them, I couldn't stop them. "
At the end of the day, the two of us don't have much say in the Black Sect.
Ji Feichen understood what Yuan Xi meant and asked, "What does Master want me to do?"
"Master wants you to suggest to the Human King that Tong Guan be demoted to a criminal of the imperial court so that she can't have a foothold in the cultivation world or the mortal world."
"So ruthless? What did she do to anger the Sky Heart Demon Sect? It's not just about killing her master and blood oath, right? "
Killing her master?
What a joke. How much affection did the relationship between master and disciple in the Demon Sect have?
Blood oath? This was indeed a key point, but it was not enough for the Sky Heart Demon Sect to deal with her.
"I heard that she ambushed a Martial Lord of the Sky Heart Demon Sect and performed an ancient blood sacrifice to kill hundreds of her fellow sect members. That's why the Spirit Sect sent out an edict, calling upon all the major sects to lend a helping hand, so that she can no longer tolerate Yuandao. " Yuan Xi sneered, "Of course, this is just what they say. As for the specific reason, it's not easy for us outsiders to find out."
"I understand —" Just as Ji Feichen finished speaking, someone barged in from outside.
"Ji Feichen, do me a favor!" Wei Qingchen barged in hurriedly. Ji Feichen waved his hand, gesturing for him to keep quiet for now. Then, the young elder continued to talk to his senior brother, "I'm clear about the matter. I'll communicate with the Emperor first. Luo Qingyi would be the one to handle the matter of hunting them down. After all, her mother was from the Heavenly Will Sect, so it was easier for them to interact. Of course, I still need to borrow Senior Brother's spies. "
"Mm, it's good that you're prepared. In any case, we don't really need to catch the culprit. We just need to do our part and express our attitude. As for my subordinates, feel free to use them. "
Yuan Xi also knew that Ji Feichen had other matters to attend to, so he shut off the communication.
Qing Hong flipped the mirror upside down, and the light disappeared automatically. He asked Wei Qingchen, "Are you also here for Tong Guan's matter?"
"Mm, you also know about the contents of the Spirit Sect's edict?"
"I just heard about it."
"What do you think?"
Ji Feichen's expression was cold. "Killing her teacher, breaking the blood oath, and sacrificing her fellow disciples. In order to protect the rule of the Primordial Sect, she must die under the three sins. "
Wei Qingchen frowned. "I don't think that Junior Sister would do this for no reason."
"It doesn't matter if she did it or not. According to the Heavenly Will Spirit Sect, she must die. "Ji Feichen smiled and asked," Do you want to save her? "
"Junior Sister is with us after all. It doesn't seem right not to save her, right?"
"What do you think about breaking the blood oath? If the blood oath was still there, she would never be able to break out of the door. In other words, killing her teacher and sacrificing her fellow disciples might not be true. But breaking the blood oath is definitely true. "
Ignoring the other two, this alone was enough to take Tong Guan's life!
The blood oath was the unshakable foundation of the Demon Sect. Everyone who betrayed the sect would be killed by the major clans of the Demon Sect to cut off the disloyalty of the other disciples.
"If you and I want to rebuild the sect on behalf of the founder in the future, we can't avoid the blood oath. What do you think of this idea? "
"This …" Wei Qingchen hesitated.
The source of the blood oath was the founder of the Demon Sect. As a dependant of the founder, how could Wei Qingchen dare to oppose the tradition of the blood oath?
Seeing through his thoughts, Ji Feichen sighed inwardly. They're not the same kind of people after all.
He looked down at the patterns on the back of the bronze mirror and no longer looked at Wei Qingchen. "Alright, I understand what you mean. I'll help you handle this matter with Tong Guan. At the very least, I'll help you take back the legacy of the Western Saintess. "
He had to save her after all.
Ji Feichen smiled bitterly in his heart. Since he had agreed to Auntie Qiu's request, he still had to take care of Tong Guan. Not to mention that Wei Qingchen was involved.
"It's just right. Let Wei Qingchen pull her into the Western Fiend Sect and cause a conflict between the Spirit Sect and the Barbarian Sect. It will further weaken the power of the Demon Sect. Then, let's see if her future actions can resolve the grudge between the two sisters. "
He thought about what had happened to Auntie Qiu and her sister, and then looked at Li Jingxun and her sister. Ji Feichen naturally did not want the past to repeat itself.
"You represent the Western Sect. I'll go to the palace to look for His Majesty first."
The two of them stood up and walked out of the mansion at the same time. When they saw the snow outside and the entire capital city was covered in silver, Ji Feichen was stunned.
Wei Qingchen pursed his lips and said, "Logically speaking, it shouldn't be snowing. The weather is getting weirder and weirder. "
"As long as someone is willing, so what if it snows all year round?" The mansion that Ji Feichen lived in was the Imperial Tutor's mansion that the Emperor had deliberately given to him. During the pursuit of the Immortal Dao, Ji Feichen did not lower his impression of the Emperor because he had discussed the Dao with the Emperor in the palace. Instead, he took the opportunity to win the Emperor's favor and became one of the spokesmen of the Primordial Dao in the imperial court. He was in charge of passing on the communication between the Emperor and the Primordial Dao aristocratic families.
When the attendant beside him saw him standing outside, he quickly put on a fur coat and opened an umbrella to shelter him from the snow.
"Prepare a sedan chair. I want to enter the palace to see His Majesty."
"I'll go look for her first." Wei Qingchen greeted him and hurriedly left the capital to try to get in touch with Manager Tong.
Then, Ji Feichen entered the palace in a sedan chair and met Consort Chen in the back garden. That person was wearing a snow ferret coat and was admiring the plum blossoms with a group of palace maids.
Consort Chen happened to see Ji Feichen as well. Her eyes moved slightly and she sent someone to invite Ji Feichen over.
"This fellow returned so quickly." Walking to Consort Chen's side, Ji Feichen realized that this person was Tushan in disguise and not his substitute.
"This person greets Your Highness."
"The Imperial Tutor is a man of great virtue. There's no need for such formalities." Consort Chen ordered the Imperial Tutor to accompany her to a Warm Spring Pavilion to watch the wind and snow outside. The palace maids brought over a charcoal basin and the Warm Spring Pavilion was quickly heated up. Consort Chen took off her fur coat and revealed her beautiful figure.
"Imperial Tutor, you are well-versed in the mysteries of heaven. Do you know how long this snow will last? "
The Rain Master was in charge of the rain and snow of the four seasons. This snow had a lot to do with him. Tushan's question was to ask how long the snow would last.
Ji Feichen said seriously, "The snow will stop at noon tomorrow."
"Is it going to be another day?"
"Your Highness, the snow is white and elegant. Don't you like it?" Ji Feichen was born during the snow season and loved the wind and snow.
"There's no life in the cold snow. What's there to see?"
"There are plum blossoms in the snow. They are proud and upright. They are the elites of the world." Glancing at the plum forest in the distance, Ji Feichen smiled and said, "White Fox often appears during the snow season. They are the spirits of the snow. Isn't it good to be in this world of white snow? "
"The White Fox appears in the snow. It's just looking for food." Consort Chen frowned and said, "The plum blossoms are proud of the snow. It's just a far-fetched idea from scholars. It's not convenient to have fun in this heavy snow. "
Suddenly, a gust of cold wind blew and picked up the withered leaves into the Warm Spring Pavilion. They landed on Consort Chen's hair bun.
Seeing the withered leaves, Ji Feichen and Tushan were shocked.
Why would withered leaves fly over for no reason and coincidentally land on her hair bun? The two vaguely felt that there was a deeper meaning behind this.
"Your Highness, please forgive me!" Seeing the withered leaves stick to her hair, the palace maid beside her quickly reached out to pluck them. But in a flurry, the jade hairpin on her head was knocked off. It fell to the ground and broke into pieces.
Broken jade? Consort Chen's face darkened and she remained silent.
Seeing this, Qing Hong glanced into the distance. He seemed to see a figure and reached out to help Consort Chen pluck the withered leaves.
Coincidentally, the Emperor walked over and saw Ji Feichen plucking the withered leaves. He frowned and walked into the Warm Spring Pavilion with a displeased expression. Consort Chen glared at Ji Feichen and hurried forward to welcome the Emperor. "Your Majesty, why are you here?"
"I just finished court and came to see my beloved Consort. You guys are … "He stared at Ji Feichen with disgust on his face.
During this period of time, the Emperor had been suspicious and suspected that someone was spying on Consort Chen. He had to personally look after Consort Chen every day.
"You caused this trouble, so clean it up yourself." Consort Chen leaned against the Emperor and ignored Ji Feichen's gaze.
Ji Feichen pondered for a moment and smiled. "Just now, the palace maid accidentally knocked off Your Highness' jade hairpin. Your Highness almost flew into a rage. I want to ask for a favor and save this impatient palace maid. What do you think, Your Highness? "
Consort Chen looked at the trembling palace maid beside her and smiled. "Imperial Preceptor. This withered leaf landed on my hair bun. It's an ominous sign. The palace maid also broke my hairpin. How can I keep such a person? "
"Withered leaf? Broken jade? " The Emperor finally saw the withered leaf in Ji Feichen's hand and the broken jade on the ground. He flew into a rage. "Someone, drag this lowly maid out and behead her!"
"Wait." Ji Feichen stopped the Emperor. The Emperor's face was gloomy. "Imperial Preceptor is an otherworldly expert. What do you think of this omen?"
"When this jade hairpin saw the leaf flying over, it felt ashamed and fell to the ground to shatter. What does this have to do with this palace maid?"
"Hmph, Imperial Preceptor, are you saying that this jade hairpin is inferior to a withered leaf?"
"Of course. Don't underestimate this withered leaf. This is His Majesty's vast land." Ji Feichen held the withered leaf in his hands. When he took it out, there was a map of mountains and rivers on it.
Seeing the map, the Emperor's expression changed. The mountains and rivers on the map weren't just Da Hong's current territory. The territories occupied by Qi Di and the other rebellious kings were also marked on the withered leaf.
"A withered leaf falling to the hair bun and a jade hairpin shattering isn't an omen. This is an auspicious sign. Consort Chen is a rare lucky star in the world. The unification of the land is due to her. Thus, this jade hairpin saw that the spirit leaf contained heavenly secrets. When it landed on Consort Chen's hair as a hair ornament, it fell to the ground and shattered in shame. "
Ji Feichen's reversal of the truth made the Emperor beam with joy. Consort Chen burst into laughter. She looked at the palace maid beside her and shook her head. "Hurry up and thank Imperial Preceptor. For you, Imperial Preceptor spent so much effort to show off his leaf carving technique. It must have been hard on him. "
"I thank Imperial Preceptor for saving my life." The palace maid hurriedly kowtowed to Ji Feichen.
"Forget it. When you serve Consort Chen in the future, don't be so rash." Ji Feichen then brought up the reason for his visit. He asked the Emperor to issue a decree to capture Tong Guan.
The Emperor saw the painting of mountains and rivers on the leaf. Although he knew that it was Ji Feichen's doing, he was still delighted. He agreed to Ji Feichen's request and sent someone to post a notice.
