After repelling Xiahou Zhen, Guan Siyu turned her gaze to Chu Xiu.
Chu Xiu hurriedly stood up and cupped his hands, "Many thanks for helping me, Hall Master."
Guan Siyu nodded and said faintly, "The Guanzhong Torture Room has helped you deal with this matter. Next time, think twice before you act. Although the Guanzhong Torture Room has stabilized, it hasn't reached the point where we can expand at will."
After reminding Chu Xiu, Guan Siyu directly left with her people.
After nightfall, Chu Xiu didn't go to sleep, nor did he choose to cultivate. Instead, he waited in the room.
Since Guan Siyu had come, then Mei Qinglian should have also come. He still remembered that Mei Qinglian had said that she had something for him to do.
Sure enough, not long after, Mei Qinglian's figure walked out of the black mist. She had a lazy smile on her face, "The trouble has been resolved. You can relax now."
Chu Xiu shook his head and said, "It wasn't a big trouble, but this time, I really didn't expect Hall Master Guan's strength to be this strong."
Mei Qinglian glanced at Chu Xiu and said, "What else do you think? If Guan Siyu was really mediocre, do you think Chu Kuangge would have stood his ground and helped him become the new Hall Master before he died? "
Chu Xiu smiled and said, "Saintess, you can play Guan Siyu in the palm of your hand. Your strength is even more terrifying than Guan Siyu's."
Mei Qinglian tidied up the hair in front of her eyebrows and snorted, "There's no need to probe. My Yin Demon Sect's martial artists are good in this aspect. If I were stronger than Guan Siyu in a head-on fight, why would I need to hide by his side? By the way, you haven't forgotten what I told you last time, right? "
Chu Xiu said, "Of course I haven't forgotten. Saintess, please tell me if you have any instructions."
Mei Qinglian said, "Don't worry, what I want you to do will be good for you. It will help you make a name for yourself in the demonic path. Have you heard of the World Sword Sect Conference? "
Chu Xiu nodded and said, "I've naturally heard of this. The centennial grand meeting is a grand occasion for sword cultivators in the Jianghu. But what does this have to do with my Demonic Path?"
The so-called World Sword Sect Meeting was a grand ceremony of Sword Principle held by the Five Major Sword Sects. Whether it was the Five Major Sword Sects or the numerous Rogue Cultivators in the Jianghu who used swords, they could all participate in it. They could compete in swordsmanship, discuss Dao, and learn from each other. Moreover, they would also give out some rewards to the most outstanding young Sword Principle experts in the meeting.
As for the World Sword Sect Meeting, Chu Xiu vaguely remembered that in the original plot, the scale seemed to be quite large. However, because only swordsmen participated, other than the Five Major Sword Sects and some warriors who used swords, very few people paid attention to this matter.
Mei Qinglian sneered and said, "Originally, it had nothing to do with it. The Five Major Sword Sects closed their doors and played internally. We Demonic Path people are not that bored, so naturally, we won't interfere.
But this time, the Five Major Sword Sects insisted on making a big move. This time, not only Sword Cultivators can participate in the World Sword Sect Meeting, but the warriors and elites of other sects can also participate. The most important thing is the reward.
In the past World Sword Sect Meeting, there were almost only two rewards. One was the world famous sword, and the other was a very high grade sword manual.
And this time, because they invited other people, there were a few more rewards. One of them was the ancient Demonic Path's secret treasure, the damaged Heavenly Demon Creation Flag.
You should know what the Good Fortune Heavenly Devil Flag means to us demonic cultivators. Those swordsman's actions are simply a slap to the face of our demonic cultivators. If our demonic cultivators were to swallow this insult, that would be the biggest joke in the world.
So this time, we Demonic Path people, whether it's the Bright Devil or the Hidden Devil lineage, have decided to put aside our prejudices and join forces to do something big. "
When Chu Xiu heard this, he raised his eyebrows. If that was the case, then the one who took the initiative to cause trouble this time was really not the Demonic Path.
Chu Xiu knew about the reputation of the Heavenly Demon Creation Flag. This thing actually had nothing to do with the Kunlun Devil Cult. It was the symbol of the entire Demonic Path.
According to legend, after the great calamity of ancient times, the Taoist and Buddhist lineages had actually left behind a very comprehensive inheritance. However, the Demonic Path was relatively loose, and the entire thing was fragmented.
Later, someone found the Ancient Demonic Path's Ancestral Land in the ruins. From there, they found many powerful Demonic Path cultivation methods. Only then did the Demonic Path recover its former glory.
The Heavenly Demon Creation Flag was found in the Ancient Demonic Path's Ancestral Land. It was the symbol of the Ancient Demonic Path's Ancestral Land. A large flag was a formation, and cultivating demonic techniques under the flag would yield twice the results with half the effort.
Moreover, in the era after the great calamity, the Demonic Path's inheritance was almost severed. The Heavenly Demon Creation Flag was the symbol of the orthodox Demonic Path. Countless Demonic Path sects had obtained it before. Almost all the Demonic Path sects who had once held onto the Heavenly Demon Creation Flag claimed that they were the orthodox Demonic Path. However, none of the sects had kept the flag for too long.
So, in general, the Heavenly Demon Creation Flag's status was similar to the dynasty's Imperial Jade Seal. Although it did not have much use, its symbolic meaning was great.
Later on, the Heavenly Demon Creation Flag naturally fell into the hands of the Kunlun Devil Cult. The Kunlun Devil Cult was also the sect that had held onto the Heavenly Demon Creation Flag for the longest time. However, as the Kunlun Devil Cult was destroyed, the Heavenly Demon Creation Flag was lost. Now, the people of Jianghu knew that the flag had fallen into the hands of the Five Great Sword Sects.
In truth, even if the flag fell into the hands of the other Demonic Path sects, they would only keep a low profile and hide it. They would not take it out to claim that they were the orthodox Demonic Path. Doing so would simply be courting death.
Without the Kunlun Devil Cult's strength, it was best not to get involved with the Kunlun Devil Cult's matters. Otherwise, they would die a terrible death.
Even so, the Heavenly Demon Creation Flag represented the orthodox Demonic Path in the past. It was the symbol of the Demonic Path. Now, however, it was treated as an item, a reward. It was simply a humiliation to the Demonic Path.
Chu Xiu frowned, "What are the Five Great Sword Sects trying to do by provoking the Demonic Path? My Devil Dao lineage did not provoke them. They should know the consequences of doing so. My Devil Dao will definitely not let this matter rest. Their World's Sword Sect Conference shouldn't be held so peacefully. "
A cold light flashed in Mei Qinglian's eyes, "What are we doing? Of course, we are preparing to establish our might. We want to see who is qualified to be the head of the Five Great Sword Sects.
Among the Five Great Sword Sects, Swordking City and Forgetful Sword Hut were the strongest on the surface. Windcloud Sword Tomb had the deepest foundation. No one knew how strong Windcloud Sword Tomb was.
Only Hidden Sword Villa and Yue Nu Palace were slightly weaker. They were not qualified to fight for the position of the head of the Five Great Sword Sects.
The other three sects all wanted the position. Under normal circumstances, they would fight each other. However, that would only waste their own strength and make others laugh at them. Even if someone won in the end, the loss would be the entire Five Great Sword Sects' strength.
The Five Great Sword Sects said that they were united. Although it was just words, infighting rarely happened.
Since there was no infighting, they could only choose another opponent to establish their might. The Five Great Sword Sects did not dare to think about the Daoist and Buddhist lineages. Since it was like this, the Demonic Path that had completely weakened and collapsed was a good choice.
The Five Great Sword Sects are not afraid of us causing trouble. They are afraid that we will not cause trouble. Only then can they show their strength and see which sect is qualified to be the head of the Five Great Sword Sects.
In the past, when the Kunlun Devil Cult was still around, our Demonic Path suppressed the world. Demonic flames overflowed the sky. How awe-inspiring was that? At that time, let alone provoking us, these righteous sects could only shout the slogan of exterminating demons and defending the Dao carefully in private. How could they be as sullen as they are now?
This is an overt plot. If we don't go, the Demonic Path's reputation will fall and we will be trampled underfoot again.
If we go, it will be exactly what the Five Great Sword Sects want. Anyway, our Demonic Path will suffer. "
Chu Xiu spread his hands and said, "In the end, our Demonic Path also chose to go, didn't it?"
Mei Qinglian snorted coldly and said, "The Kunlun Devil Cult is gone, but the other Demonic Path sects are still there. When it comes to our Demonic Path, how can we retreat? Don't the Five Great Sword Sects want to see the strength of our Demonic Path? Then this time, we will let them see just how much strength our Devil Dao has left! Without the Kunlun Devil Cult, once our Bright Demon and Hidden Demon join forces, even if we are not as good as the Daoist and Buddhist lineages, ordinary people will not be able to humiliate us! "
Chu Xiu asked doubtfully, "By the way, what are Bright Demon and Hidden Demon?"
Mei Qinglian pointed at Chu Xiu and then pointed at herself and said, "You and I belong to the Hidden Demon lineage. The mark of the Kunlun Devil Cult on us is too strong. We belong to the kind of people that the Righteous Path sects must kill. We have to hide in the dark, so we are called Hidden Demon. The people of the Phaseless Demon Sect also belong to the Hidden Demon lineage.
As for the Bright Demon lineage, they are sects like the Northern Plains Evil Pole Sect and the Miaojiang Moon Worshipping Cult. When the Kunlun Devil Cult was destroyed, they had nothing to do with the Kunlun Devil Cult, so they could walk in the Jianghu aboveboard and not be chased by the Righteous Path sects.
Previously, the Hidden Demon lineage had a lot of complaints about the Bright Demon lineage, thinking that they had betrayed the Demonic Path, so the two sides could be said to be incompatible like fire and water.
But now, because the five sword sects were provoking the entire Demonic Path, the two lineages of Demonic Path temporarily put down their prejudice and prepared to join forces this time.
I'm the only one left of my Shadow Demon Sect, but as you can see, I can't leave Guanzhong, so you will represent my Shadow Demon Sect to participate in this Demonic Path Conference.
When the time comes, as the representative of my Shadow Demon Sect, no matter how much effort you put in, you will get a share of the profits after the conference. It can also increase your prestige in the Demonic Path. Anyway, this is a good job. "
Chu Xiu nodded and asked, "When is the World Sword Sect Conference? Where is it? "
Mei Qinglian said, "Two months later, West Chu's Floating Jade Mountain. But you have to go to the Bone Tree Villa next to Floating Jade Mountain in a month to participate in the Demonic Path Conference."
At this time, Chu Xiu's expression did not change, but his heart was in turmoil.
He finally remembered what had happened. In the original plot, this was not called the World Sword Sect Conference, but the famous Righteous Path and Demonic Path Conference on Floating Jade Mountain!
