It had to be said that Bai Ze was very efficient. In just three days, he had brought back a person.
This person was called Wu Liang, the Divine General in charge of the Fifth Spiritual Palace. He was in charge of dozens of Divine Generals and Immortal Soldiers.
Wu Liang was just like his name. He was extremely ugly, and he acted like a villain when he did things.
It could be said that with his appearance, it would be difficult for him to survive among the Divine Generals. However, he was good at flattery and treated his Divine Generals and Immortal Soldiers very well. Ji Yinyang was a Yin-Yang person and did not have many requirements for his appearance. This was why Wu Liang became the Divine General of the Fifth Spiritual Palace.
Of course, even though Wu Liang was a shameless villain, he had friends. His only friend was Bai Ze. The two of them had been through life and death together.
"Greetings, Ninth Spiritual Son."
When Bai Ze quietly brought this person into the Ninth Spiritual Palace, Wu Liang bowed his head and kowtowed to Ye Xuan. He even lowered his posture to the extreme.
"You are Bai Ze's brother. That makes you my brother. Get up." Ye Xuan said with a smile.
"Thank you, Spiritual Son."
Wu Liang quickly got up and looked at Ye Xuan. However, when he saw Ye Xuan's deep eyes, Wu Liang's heart suddenly tightened.
This person is not simple!
In an instant, this sentence flashed across Wu Liang's mind.
Although Wu Liang's cultivation was not high, he was very good at reading people's expressions. With just a glance at Ye Xuan, he was very sure that the Ninth Spiritual Son standing in front of him was not simple.
Not simple was not referring to Ye Xuan's cultivation, but Ye Xuan's eyes. His eyes were deep and reserved, and contained a look that made his heart palpitate.
This also showed that this Ninth Spiritual Son was very shrewd and was definitely not an ordinary person.
"Spiritual Son, you guys talk. I will take my leave for now."
Bai Ze was someone who knew when to advance and when to retreat. He bowed to Ye Xuan and strode out of the Ninth Spirit Hall, leaving only Ye Xuan and Wu Liang in the Ninth Spirit Hall.
"Bai Ze must have told you everything, right?" Ye Xuan looked at Wu Liang indifferently as Bai Ze left. A deep light flashed through his eyes.
There was an old saying that a person's eyes were the window to the soul. Ye Xuan could tell at a glance that Wu Liang was different from Bai Ze. He was an extremely cunning person.
To be honest, Ye Xuan could not help but sigh at the fact that an honest and loyal person would actually become friends with a scheming and cunning person.
"I already know everything." Wu Liang nodded slowly, but there was a hint of hesitation in his eyes.
"You're a smart person. I don't want to say too much. As long as you complete this task, I won't mistreat you," Ye Xuan said calmly.
"Can I refuse?" Wu Liang smiled bitterly. There was deep helplessness in his eyes.
He wasn't Bai Ze, and he didn't have any so-called loyalty to Ye Xuan. When Bai Ze told him about this matter, his original intention was to refuse. However, Bai Ze had begged him, so he had no choice but to come to the Ninth Spirit Hall. From the bottom of his heart, he didn't want to do this at all.
The Fifth Spiritual Son, Ji Yinyang, was an existence that he could never hope to reach. Asking him to poison him was no different from courting death.
"Of course you can refuse," Ye Xuan said calmly.
"Spiritual Son, please understand. This matter is of great importance. I am only a little Divine General. I really don't dare to get involved. However, Spiritual Son, you can rest assured that I will keep this matter to myself and never speak of it."
Wu Liang bowed, turned around and walked out of the hall.
One step, two steps, three steps … nine steps!
When Wu Liang took his ninth step, he would leave the Ninth Spirit Hall as soon as he stepped through the door. However, at this moment, his footsteps suddenly came to a halt. He was rooted to the spot.
Suddenly, after three breaths, Wu Liang slowly turned around. However, his face was filled with helplessness. He walked towards Ye Xuan again.
"Why aren't you leaving?" Ye Xuan was not surprised at all. Instead, he looked at Wu Liang indifferently.
Wu Liang smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Spiritual Son, you must be joking. If I had really taken that last step, I would have become a missing person in the next moment."
"I just said that you're a smart person. It looks like I wasn't wrong," Ye Xuan smiled.
"Spiritual Son, you're the one with great wisdom. I'm not worthy of your praise," Wu Liang shook his head bitterly.
In fact, it was just as Wu Liang had said. If he had really walked out of the Ninth Spirit Hall, the only outcome for him would be death. This was because in Ye Xuan's creed, only the dead could keep secrets.
"I really like to deal with smart people. You're very smart. As long as you're loyal to me, you'll get whatever you want," Ye Xuan smiled gently.
"Wu Liang kowtows to Spiritual Son. From now on, I will recognize you as my master. I will never betray you. If I violate this oath, my soul will scatter and I will die," Wu Liang knelt on the ground and solemnly kowtowed three times to Ye Xuan. He even swore a heart demon oath.
Perhaps some people would question why Wu Liang would so easily pledge his loyalty to Ye Xuan.
The reason was very simple. This was where Wu Liang was smart.
This was because he knew that his only choice was to pledge his loyalty to Ye Xuan. Otherwise, he would only end up dead.
This was because Wu Liang could sense that Ye Xuan was a vicious person. This was where he was truly smart. If he didn't swear a heart demon oath to pledge his loyalty to Ye Xuan, Ye Xuan would never be at ease with him.
This was why Ye Xuan really liked dealing with smart people. This saved him a lot of effort.
Bai Ze was different from Wu Liang. Bai Ze was an honest person. Ye Xuan could only show him kindness to achieve Bai Ze's goal of pledging his loyalty to him.
"Come find me here in seven days. You can leave now," Ye Xuan said indifferently.
"Yes, Spiritual Son."
Wu Liang hurriedly stood up and wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. He then hurriedly left the Ninth Spirit Hall.
"This person is clearly a despicable person. He won't be loyal to you. Aren't you afraid that he'll leak the secret to Ji Yinyang?" Gai Tianyuan reminded him.
"He wouldn't dare because he's afraid of death. This kind of person is the best weapon in my hands. It's much more comfortable to use him than Bai Ze." Ye Xuan smiled slightly.
"I've already done what I need to do. The final step is up to you," Ye Xuan reminded him.
"I do have the poison you want. It's called the Ten Thousand Poison Powder. It's colorless and odorless. It's extremely insidious. However, you'll have to find the ingredients to make it yourself," Gai Tianyuan said in a deep voice.
"There's a Medicine King Pavilion in the Ten Thousand Spirit Heavenly Palace. It can definitely make the Ten Thousand Poison Powder." Ye Xuan smiled.
…
Medicine King Pavilion.
This place was an important place in the Ten Thousand Spirit Heavenly Palace. Not only did it contain countless spiritual items, but it was also rumored to be a chaotic sacred medicine that could allow one to enter the Yin Yang Realm after consuming it.
