Should he be let go, or should he be killed?
Xue Ying spoke very slowly. Although her expression was still calm, there was a hint of seriousness in her eyes as she stared unblinkingly at True Lord Tian Lan.
Old Ma, who was in the corridor, seemed to be holding his breath as he looked nervously at the fatty sitting in the courtyard.
True Lord Tian Lan was silent for a while, then said lightly, "Don't worry about him, let him be."
Xue Ying nodded and agreed. Old Ma, who was beside her, let out a long sigh and wiped his forehead with his hand.
True Lord Tian Lan's gaze seemed to inadvertently sweep over the corridor, but it quickly moved away. He looked at Xue Ying and said, "Mobilize the people from the Disorienting Lands and send them back to the Immortal City in several batches. You also go back there to oversee things and prepare carefully. In about half a year to a year, I will send out the 'Heaven' Token."
Xue Ying had been very calm all along. Even when it came to dealing with Hei Lang, she did not show any change in her expression. However, when she suddenly heard the words' Heaven 'Token', her body shook violently. She could not help but ask True Lord Tian Lan, "My Lord, are you talking about the Heaven's Token?"
True Lord Tian Lan nodded and did not say anything. Xue Ying lowered her head, as if she knew that she had lost her composure. However, after taking a deep breath, her expression had already calmed down. There was even a hint of excitement in her eyes.
True Lord Tian Lan saw the change in Xue Ying's expression but did not say anything.
After a while, Xue Ying asked carefully, "My Lord, about the reorganization of Fuyunji that you mentioned before …"
"Let's begin." True Lord Tian Lan did not hesitate and said straightforwardly, "Just do as I told you before. The Immortal City has basically been arranged, you just need to follow the plan. I still need to reorganize the Kunlun Party for a while, but it should not take too long. When the time comes, I will come and tell you. "
"My Lord is wise." Xue Ying bowed deeply. At this moment, the face of this charming and beautiful woman did not seem to have the usual fierceness. Instead, there was a bit of heartfelt admiration.
However, Perfected Lord Tian Lan was probably the only person in this world who could make a woman like her have such an expression.
After a while, when all that needed to be said was said, Xue Ying bade farewell and left. Supreme Lord Tianlan naturally sat there without moving. It was Old Ma who sent Xue Ying out of the deserted Black Hill Pavilion.
Just as she was about to step out of the door, Xue Ying suddenly stopped and turned to look at Old Ma.
Xue Ying's expression was different from her previous humble and obedient demeanor in front of True Lord Tian Lan in the courtyard. At this moment, Xue Ying's expression had returned to her usual self. The sharpness hidden in her beautiful face seemed to be released once again as she looked indifferently at Old Ma.
Old Ma stepped aside and quietly lowered his head.
"Old Ma," Blood Oriole called out.
"I'm here," replied Old Ma.
"How long have you been with Hei Lang?"
Old Ma hesitated for a moment, but still answered honestly, "More than ten years. If we count from the time when he was still in the Devil Cult, then even earlier."
Xue Ying hummed and said, "You are also an old person in Fuyunji. Moreover, Hei Lang's identity is special. Back then, even I could not ask about him. Only you and Supreme could contact him. What do you think of this person? "
Old Ma was silent for a moment, then said, "It doesn't matter what I think. The most important thing is what Supreme and you plan to do. As long as there is an order, we, as subordinates, will naturally follow it."
Xue Ying stared at him for a moment, then nodded and left without saying anything else.
…
After watching the charming yet vaguely fierce woman leave, Old Ma stood alone for a while before returning to the backyard.
Supreme Tianlan was still sitting in the same place. At this moment, he was looking up at the sky. Old Ma walked to his side and stood there. He also looked up and saw a dark cloud floating in the small sky above his head.
"Do you blame me?" Supreme Lord Tianlan suddenly asked.
Old Ma shook his head and said, "No, it was Hei Lang who couldn't get over it and insisted on walking down the road of no return. It's not your fault."
Supreme Tianlan snorted and shook his head without saying anything.
Old Ma continued, "That night, on the long street of Kunwu City, I already told him everything that should be said. Hei Lang himself should know how serious the consequences of his actions were and how troublesome it would be."
Supreme Tianlan was silent for a long time before he said, "After staying in the Devil Cult for a long time, his temperament has probably changed."
Old Ma's body trembled slightly and he subconsciously blurted out, "But he's absolutely respectful and loyal to you!"
Supreme Tianlan turned to look at Old Ma.
That gaze was calm and emotionless, but it seemed as heavy as a mountain. At that moment, Old Ma felt as if the entire Kunlun Mountain was pressing down on his shoulders and back, making him feel suffocated. He almost knelt down.
Fortunately, this feeling disappeared in the blink of an eye. In the end, he clenched his teeth and endured it. But after a while, the back of his clothes was already wet.
After a while, Supreme Tianlan seemed to be a little dispirited and said, "Forget it. Anyway, it's already like this. Let him be. I don't know if he really came back from the Land of Chaos alive … "
…
Xue Ying went all the way out of Kunwu City and came to a secluded place outside the city. There were already people from Fuyunji waiting for her, and they welcomed her.
Xue Ying ordered people to stand guard outside while she walked alone to a quiet place. She then took out a bright yellow talisman from her bosom and directly lit it up.
This was the highest grade sound talisman, and each one was extremely valuable. But compared to the secret treasure of the Kunlun Party, the Wind Whisper Disc, it was naturally still a bit inferior. But sound talismans were more convenient and easy to use. Although there were some limitations, such as the fact that two people couldn't communicate with each other and could only transmit a single message, over the years, sound talismans were still quite popular among the higher-ups of Zhenxianmeng.
As the fire lit up, several magnificent spirit lights flickered, forming a ring that kept rotating. Xue Ying's expression was solemn as she said to the ring of spirit lights, "Give up on the pursuit and return to the Immortal City."
As soon as she finished speaking, the magnificent ring of spirit lights suddenly trembled with incomparable intensity. There were faint tiny waves of air in the air that rushed towards the surroundings with incomparable speed, faintly emitting ear-piercing whistling sounds. This continued for a little less than the time it took to drink a cup of tea before it gradually calmed down. Then, the ring of spirit lights disappeared, and the sound talisman was completely burnt at this moment.
Xue Ying swung her hand, and the last bit of ash fell from her white palm and floated in the wind.
At the same time, in the faraway Land of Chaos, in a river valley that was blooming with a large expanse of bright flowers, a similar sound talisman was also burning in the hand of a woman in red.
The strange ring of light flickered with a magnificent luster, flashing on her fingertips, causing her beautiful face to become a little bright red, as if she was a little excited.
The woman in red stood in the river valley not too far away from the Bloodthirsty Demon Flowers. If there were people familiar with the strange and cruel habits of these demon flowers, they would probably be able to see that she just happened to be standing on the edge of that invisible boundary. If she just went a little further, the Bloodthirsty Demon Flowers would be alarmed, and they would start hunting for food.
Under the clear sky, this scene of a beautiful woman and a beautiful flower was really beautiful, but in the dark, danger lurked everywhere, and life and death were only an inch away.
Further away in the river valley, there were quite a few people standing. These people seemed to be wearing different clothes, but each of them was valiant and capable. They were all part of the elites of this hall in Zhenxianmeng and Fuyunji.
For so many years, the Devil Cult had been on the decline, and Zhenxianmeng had been peaceful for a long time. Only Fuyunji, a hall that specialized in dealing with the Devil Cult, had all kinds of powerful people.
At that moment, the red-clothed woman was looking at the ring of spiritual light in her hand the entire time. As for the surrounding people, they had all made way for her. All of them were quite a distance away from her. Evidently, this red-clothed woman's status in the Floating Clouds Department was not low.
After a short moment, the spirit light ring suddenly shook violently, and dazzling light flickered. Immediately after, a sentence came out of the light. It was unexpectedly the same sentence that Xue Ying had said through the sound transmission talisman outside Kunwu City in the Western Continent.
This voice wasn't loud, and only the woman in red standing next to the spirit light ring could hear it clearly. After hearing this sentence, she nodded slightly, then flicked her finger. The sound transmission talisman floated up and burned, scattering like dust on the ground behind her.
She turned around and walked towards the entrance of the river valley. At the same time, she waved her hands, and the people in the surroundings of Fuyunji quickly gathered around her.
"Miss Hong, did Hall Master Xue Ying send an order?" someone asked from the side.
The woman in red, who was addressed as Miss Hong, smiled and nodded. "Yes, Sister Xue Ying sent me a message just now. She has given me instructions on this matter." Speaking up to here, she paused for a moment, then continued, "You all probably know that she has been in the Western Continent's Kunlun Mountain for the past few days, so this order is most likely the order of that True Monarch Tian Lan above us."
The people around her immediately became restless. Even in Zhenxianmeng, the largest power in the cultivation world, a Soul Formation True Monarch was still an unreachable existence. It was enough to make people feel awe and respect. Not to mention that True Monarch Tian Lan was actually the legendary figure who founded Fuyunji. For so many years, he had always led Fuyunji to fight against the Devil Cult. He was a god-like figure in the hearts of almost everyone present, an existence that was a level higher than the other True Monarchs in Zhenxianmeng.
Seeing the expressions on everyone's faces and eyes, the woman in red smiled with satisfaction and said, "So everyone must do your best to follow this order. Don't be lazy."
Everyone burst into laughter. Someone laughed and said, "Who dares to be lazy? Isn't Miss Hong here to watch? What order is it? Just say it."
The woman in red nodded and smiled. Then, her expression suddenly became solemn. She said, "Receiving the order from Hall Master, we will use all our strength to chase after the Devil Cult's Black Wolf. When we find him, we will kill him without mercy!"
