Shen Xuening, who looked young, was actually older than Mister Lu.
Shen Xuening was a martial arts grandmaster from the Scarlet Demonic Sect. Although he wasn't famous in the Hidden Devil Lineage, he wasn't insignificant either. It could only be said that he was very low-key.
However, the Scarlet Demonic Sect was a standard example of a person who didn't speak much.
Usually, they didn't reveal themselves, and they might not even make a move for more than ten years. However, once they made a move, it would definitely be a matter of family destruction.
Moreover, the Scarlet Demonic Sect was an elite sect. Although they didn't have many disciples, they were all elites.
The old ancestor of the Scarlet Demonic Sect had a good relationship with Yuan Tianfang, so in Mister Lu's opinion, he should be following Xing Situ. Why would he follow them?
Shen Xuening smiled and said, "The one who has a good relationship with Yuan Tianfang is my old ancestor, not me.
Xing Situ is a scheming person. If I don't say anything, I'll feel depressed. If I say anything, it will definitely cause a rift between me and Xing Situ. I might as well not be with him.
Moreover, I have confidence in Brother Chu. Even my old ancestor said that among the younger generation of the Hidden Devil Lineage, Brother Chu has the most potential.
Those who are valued by Senior Wei are not mediocre. "
Shen Xuening wasn't flattering Chu Xiu. The old ancestor of the Scarlet Demonic Sect really said that.
Wei Shuya was famous in the Yinmo Clan not only because of his qualifications and identity, but also because of his judgment of people.
Earlier, Chu Wuji and Mei Qinglian were all discovered by Wei Shuya. Later, when he visited the Phaseless Demonic Sect, he met Mister Lu and said that Mister Lu would become a great person in the future.
Those who were valued by Wei Shuya were almost all mediocre, and the same was true for Chu Xiu.
Hearing Shen Xuening's words, Mister Lu nodded and didn't mind.
The Scarlet Demonic Sect was low-key and neutral in the Hidden Devil Lineage, so it wasn't annoying.
Chu Xiu nodded and said, "Since that's the case, I welcome Brother Shen. Such a small matter actually doesn't need to be calculated."
Putting everything else aside, Shen Xuening was a person who knew the rules very well.
His actual age was older than Mr. Lu, and in terms of seniority, he was also higher than Chu Xiu. But now, he called Chu Xiu "Brother Chu" and directly used strength to determine seniority, which made people feel comfortable.
Shen Xuening nodded and said, "Xing Situ is well prepared. I'm afraid he has been planning everything since yesterday. What do you plan to do, Brother Chu?"
The rest of the demonic path martial artists were also staring at Chu Xiu.
Since they had followed Chu Xiu here, their interests were naturally tied to Chu Xiu.
Although they didn't expect to get any benefits, it was still good to have some soup to drink.
Chu Xiu narrowed his eyes. "Plan before you act. Xing Situ did a good job. Since he has prepared the information, we naturally have to understand the current situation of the Earth Demon Hall. "
Shen Xuening slapped his head and said, "That's right, I almost forgot. Brother Chu, you are good friends with Xie Xiaolou, the disciple of the World Alliance's Chenqing Di. The World Alliance is located in West Chu, so it should be very easy for you to obtain this information."
Chu Xiu shook his head and said, "Professional matters should be handled by professionals. Even if the World Alliance can obtain some information, it's only superficial information. Even if Xing Situ sent people to inquire about it, they only found some general information. The real details are not in West Chu, but in Eastern Qi. "
"Where?"
"Wind Sweeping Building!"
… …
At this time, in the headquarters of Wind Sweeping Building in Eastern Qi's Nanliang City, Vice Floor Master 'Three Eyed God' Qi Yuanli was leisurely basking in the sun. Beside him was a pot of hot tea and a stack of fennel beans. From time to time, he would pick up a bean and throw it into his mouth, then take a sip of tea.
For Qi Yuanli, this kind of leisurely life was the most enjoyable. Although there were many people in the Wind Sweeping Tower who criticized him for being too idle, Qi Yuanli handled the matters that needed to be handled in an orderly manner. In fact, he was even more capable than the other Vice Building Masters.
At this time, the door was knocked open. Qi Yuanli frowned and said, "Didn't I say not to disturb me when I'm basking in the sun? It's not like the war between the righteous and demonic factions has started. Why are you all panicking?"
At this time, Qi Yuanli suddenly felt that something was wrong. He turned around and saw a disciple of the Wind Sweeping Building standing there with a bitter smile. Chu Xiu and the other martial dao masters were all standing there looking at him.
"Floor Master Qi, long time no see."
Chu Xiu greeted with a smile.
Qi Yuanli wiped his cold sweat and said with a forced smile, "Vice Floor Master, it's just a Vice Floor Master. Why did Official Chu come to my Wind Sweeping Building?"
To be honest, Qi Yuanli did not want to see Chu Xiu at this time, especially during this sensitive period.
A storm was brewing in the Pugilistic World. Wind Sweeping Building specialized in intelligence, how could they not know what state the righteous and demonic factions were in? It was like a barrel of gunpowder that could explode at any time.
However, Wind Sweeping Building was a neutral force. They did not want to help the demonic factions, but at the same time, they did not want to offend the righteous factions. Therefore, they could only keep a low profile, afraid that the two factions would come knocking on their door.
But now, not only did Chu Xiu come knocking on their door, but he also came with three martial dao masters.
Yin Demon Sect's Saintess, Mei Qinglian, was quite famous in the Pugilistic World. Of course, most people only knew her as Madam Mei, but they did not know that she was Saintess Mei.
There was also the Phaseless Demon Sect's new martial dao master, Lu Jin, who addressed others as Mister Lu. He led the Phaseless Demon Sect on many missions, and he was already quite famous before he became a martial dao master.
Finally, Qi Yuanli thought about it and found the corresponding person.
Scarlet Demon Sect's Baleful Yin Demon Sword, Shen Xuening, although she was not famous in the Pugilistic World, every time she made a move, her sword would be stained with blood, and she would die.
There were probably three or four martial dao masters who had died in her hands. She was decisive and ruthless, and she had never lost a single battle.
Four martial dao masters from the Hidden Demon Sect came looking for him together. This made Qi Yuanli feel that they did not come with good intentions, and he no longer had the mood to bask in the sun.
Chu Xiu sat at the table beside Qi Yuanli, poured himself a cup of tea, and said, "Don't worry, Tower Lord Qi. We are not here to look for trouble. We came to Wind Sweeping Tower to buy information."
Qi Yuanli revealed a look of embarrassment. Of course, he knew that they were here to buy information, but the problem was that it was a crucial moment in the war between the righteous and demonic sects. Would Wind Sweeping Tower dare to sell information about the righteous sects to Chu Xiu and the others?
Chu Xiu saw that Qi Yuanli's expression was a little ugly, so he waved his hand and said, "Tower Lord Qi, you misunderstand. I know the rules, and I will not make things difficult for you. I am not buying information about the righteous sects, but about the traitor of the Kunlun Devil Cult, the Earth Demon Hall."
Hearing this, Qi Yuanli immediately heaved a sigh of relief.
There was no problem with people from the demonic sects buying information about people from the demonic sects.
As he said this, Qi Yuanli took out a jade book and kept flipping through it. Finally, he copied it into a jade talisman and handed it to Chu Xiu.
"Thank you, Tower Lord Qi. What's the price?"
Qi Yuanli immediately made a gesture of invitation and said, "The remnants of the Earth Demon Hall do not have much influence in the underworld. It is not considered a big piece of information. Official Chu can just take it and leave."
At this moment, Qi Yuanli did not dare to ask for money. He could not wait to send Chu Xiu, this god of plague, away.
Chu Xiu shook his head and said, "That won't do. I, Chu Xiu, do not have the habit of asking for things for free. Friendship is friendship, and rules are rules. These are elixirs produced by my Zhenwu Hall. There is only one of them in the underworld. Tower Lord Qi, take it. If it is useful, it can be used to promote my Zhenwu Hall. "
As he said this, Chu Xiu threw a bottle of elixirs to Qi Yuanli and left with his people.
The Zhenwu Hall had established a foothold in the Northern Yan and received a lot of filial piety from those aristocratic families. Chu Xiu had people set up a pill shop that specialized in refining elixirs. After all, one should not let one's own fertile water flow into one's own field.
After Qi Yuanli and the others left, he took a look at the name on the elixir and almost vomited blood. It turned out to be an ordinary Blood Recovery Elixir. What was the difference between this and taking it for free?
Qi Yuanli looked at the disciple of Wind Sweeping Building who was still stunned at the side and threw the elixir to him. He snorted and said, "This is your reward. Hurry up and get out!"
Qi Yuanli shook his head unhappily. Chu Xiu's actions had ruined his mood to bask in the sun. It was really annoying.
After leaving Wind Sweeping Building, Shen Xuening, who was following behind Chu Xiu, had a look of interest on his face. He finally understood the gap between Chu Xiu and Xing Situ, and even himself, a warrior from the Yinmo Clan.
This was not a gap in strength, but a gap in the way they acted and the overall situation.
Martial artists like them who came from the Hidden Devil Bloodline, no matter what they did, would always limit themselves to the Hidden Devil Bloodline.
Especially for people like Xing Situ, who was like a wandering soldier. He might have the strength, but he would run after killing people and come back after hiding. He really did not have the overall situation to speak of.
However, Chu Xiu was different. His connections were all over the underworld, and of course, his hatred was also all over the underworld.
Just like this time, Xing Situ could only inquire about the news through other devil path rogue cultivators, but Chu Xiu had already used his connections to get detailed information from Wind Sweeping Building.
Shen Xuening could see that this was definitely not the first time Qi Yuanli and Chu Xiu had met. This was only because it was Chu Xiu. If it was Xing Situ, he would probably put on a good show of breaking into Wind Sweeping Building.
So after so many years, the number of people from the Yinmo Clan who could stand upright in the underworld could be counted on one hand, and Chu Xiu was one of them.
Chu Xiu glanced at the contents of the report, and a strange look appeared in his eyes. He said, "These remnants of the Earth Demon Hall are interesting. All of them have changed their identities and joined forces with the West Chu imperial court. They have become members of a secret organization under the West Chu imperial court."
The methods of the Earth Demon Hall were very similar to those of Chu Xiu. They were also not accepted by the righteous path, so they chose to cooperate with the imperial court, which had nothing to do with the righteous and demonic path.
The only difference was that Chu Xiu had many choices at the time, but the Earth Demon Hall had no choice. This was the only way they could exchange for a chance of survival.
