Zhong Xingyu nodded coldly and said, "Lin Xuan's Divine Lotus Dao has now become the largest power in the southeast region of Middle Earth.
However, this strength is only on the surface. The Divine Lotus Dao's foundation is too shallow. They lack the combat power of the Divinity Realm and are still far from being on par with those super sects.
Therefore, I guess that Lin Xuan summoned us this time to make up for the lack of Divinity Realm combat power. "
Yin Nanzi furrowed her brows and coldly snorted, "Does this brat really think we're his puppets? That he can do as he pleases?"
Zhong Xingyu smiled playfully, "So, you don't plan to meet Lin Xuan?"
Yin Nanzi's face showed hesitation. After struggling for a while, she sighed helplessly, "Let's go and take a look!
The shackles of the Dragon Emperor's Golden Book are still there. Even if it doesn't take our lives, it is enough to make us pay a hefty price.
As long as he keeps his promise five years later and returns us our freedom, it doesn't matter if we help him for these few years. Of course, the prerequisite is that it doesn't endanger our own safety. "
Zhong Xuan nodded his head, "I think so too. However, if you want to see Lin Xuan, it's best to bring others along with you. This way, Lin Xuan will have more misgivings."
"Alright, let's split up. Two of them actually joined Daye and became the dynasty's consecrators, officials of the same court as Qing Xuan. I wonder if Lin Xuan will go crazy when he finds out. Haha … "
Yin Nanzi laughed mockingly. Her figure gradually sank into the ground and disappeared.
These nine people were originally sent to kill Qing Xuan. However, they were intimidated by Qing Xuan's strength and methods. After suffering a few losses, they gave up.
In these few years, the nine of them followed Qing Xuan to the capital of Daye. They hid themselves and planned to wait for an opportunity.
However, they waited for five years. The nine of them were usually busy with their own things. The mission given by Lin Xuan was gradually forgotten by them.
If it wasn't for the summons from the Dragon Emperor's Golden Book, they would have almost forgotten about their dispute with Lin Xuan.
Yin Nanzi and Zhong Xingyu split up and soon found the other seven people. After reaching a consensus, the nine of them rushed to Shuo Prefecture's Taiyi City.
The nine of them were all in the Divinity Realm. Their cultivation was in the middle and late stages of the Divinity realm. Their speed was naturally very fast. In just one day, they arrived at the foot of Taiyi Sacred Mountain.
The nine people did not conceal their identity and aura. They hovered hundreds of feet high in the air, looking down at the countless Taoists coming and going, as well as the tens of thousands of pilgrims below the Greater One Sacred Mountain. They could not help but be secretly surprised.
Zhong Xingyu sighed and said, "Lin Xuan sacrificed the Daqian dynasty. I thought that he was deeply obsessed with the devil and would never be able to stand under the sun again in this life. Unexpectedly, not only did he withstand the suppression of the Emperor's slaves, but he was also able to create such a big scene in such a short time. He really is a dragon and phoenix among men."
Yin Nanzi nodded and said, "Lin Xuan is best at taking advantage of others. With the support of the Lotus Demon and his heaven-defying fate, it is enough for him to be in an invincible position most of the time. This boy really can't be underestimated."
Yin Lihua glanced at Yin Nanzi and said with deep resentment, "Humph, I'm afraid that among us, only you, Yin Nanzi, dare to underestimate Lin Xuan. Back then, for a medicinal pill, you betrayed a heavenly talent with a strong fate! To be honest, we are all unlucky to have followed you! "
Yin Nanzi's face darkened and he retorted sarcastically, "If you want to blame someone, you can only blame your bad luck!"
"You!"
Yin Lihua was suffocated with anger.
"Enough!"
Zhong Xingyu shouted to stop the two's meaningless quarrel and said, "This is already an important place in the Divine Lotus Road. Let's hurry over. If Lin Xuan misunderstands that we are provoking him, I'm afraid that no one wants to see the result."
The nine Transcendent realm experts did not hide their cultivation at all. Their tyrannical aura spread over a hundred li and had already caused the Divine Lotus Road to be on guard.
Everyone knew that Zhong Xingyu's words were reasonable and did not want to anger Lin Xuan, so they flew towards the peak of the Divine Lotus Mountain.
"Who are you?"
A group of divine guards rose into the air and stopped the nine people. The leader of the group asked with a vigilant face.
Zhong Xingyu said indifferently, "The nine of us are former subordinates of Lord Lin. We have been summoned by Lord Lin to report on the completion of the mission. Please pass on the message!"
Before the leader of the divine guards could reply, Lin Xuan's voice came from the Dragon-Sealing Pagoda in the distance and floated in the sky.
"Let them in!"
"Understood!"
The divine guards immediately made way for them.
Zhong Xingyu, Yin Nanzi, and the others looked at the Dragon-Sealing Pagoda, and a trace of seriousness appeared between their brows. After hesitating for a moment, they finally walked over.
In the ninth floor of the Dragon-Sealing Pagoda, the nine of them finally saw Lin Xuan again.
After six years, Lin Xuan's cultivation had not improved much and was still at the late stage of the Heavenly Transformation realm.
But for some reason, the nine of them could clearly feel that the young man above them had become more dangerous and unfathomable compared to a few years ago. The nine Transcendent realm experts felt an irresistible sense of oppression.
Of course, this was mainly because of psychological reasons. After all, at least half of their lives were still in the hands of Lin Xuan.
"Subordinate Zhong Xingyu greets the Dao Master!"
"Subordinate Yin Nanzi greets the Dao Master!"
"..."
The nine of them stood in the middle of the hall and respectfully bowed to Lin Xuan.
At least on the surface, the nine of them were very respectful.
"Everyone, please rise!"
Lin Xuan's gaze was indifferent, and the corner of his mouth hooked up in a faint smile.
He stood up from the throne and looked down at the nine of them, saying, "Everyone, in order to work for me these past few years, you have been running around outside. It's been hard on you."
Everyone said that they did not dare.
Zhong Xingyu said with a guilty expression, "Dao Master, although we have been wholeheartedly trying to complete the task that you have given us and eliminate Qing Xuan, we are not strong enough and have been defeated by Qing Xuan several times. We had no choice but to hide in the capital of Daye and wait for an opportunity to find Qing Xuan's weakness. Unfortunately, we have not done anything yet. This subordinate has let down the Dao Master's trust, please punish us!"
"This subordinate has not done well, please punish us!"
Yin Nanzi, Yin Lihua, and the others also put on a look of guilt on their faces. Anyone would think that they were a group of loyal and brave warriors.
This little trick might be able to fool the average person, but if he wanted to fool Lin Xuan, it was still not enough.
Lin Xuan sneered in his heart, but on the surface, he waved his hand generously and said indifferently, "Everyone, there is no need to blame yourselves. As the saying goes, man proposes, and God disposes. You have not been able to eliminate Qing Xuan until now, perhaps it is not his time to die. I believe that everyone has done their best, you have done well and not made any mistakes!"
Zhong Xingyu, Yin Nanzi, and the others heard this and could not help but feel happy. They were most worried that Lin Xuan would not let go of this matter and use it as a pretext to make a fuss and abandon the ten-year agreement that was previously set.
But at this moment, it seemed that Lin Xuan did not intend to blame them for this matter, which made them feel greatly relieved.
Zhong Xingyu said with tears of gratitude, "Dao Master is so tolerant to this subordinate, this subordinate is even more ashamed! This subordinate is willing to ask you to kill Qing Xuan again. As long as Qing Xuan is not dead, this subordinate will not have the face to see Dao Master! "
Looking at Zhong Xingyu's performance, Yin Nanzi, Yin Lihua, and the others could not help but be slightly stunned.
But after all, they were all people who had lived for hundreds of years, and instantly understood Zhong Xingyu's plan.
Zhong Xingyu did this to show his loyalty, and on the other hand, if Lin Xuan really agreed to his request, he could continue to laze around outside, and also avoid being ordered around by Lin Xuan in the Divine Lotus Path like a donkey.
As the saying goes, being in the king's company is like being in the tiger's company. If they were to hang around in the Divine Lotus Path headquarters all day, what if one day Lin Xuan gave them a life-threatening mission, should they accept it or not?
In the end, only by staying away from Lin Xuan could they continue to be carefree. Otherwise, how would they live if there was always a pair of eyes above their heads watching over them?
After thinking this through, the old demons followed Zhong Xingyu and began to express their opinions.
"Dao Master! If we don't kill Qing Xuan, we are not human! "
"If we don't kill Qing Xuan, this subordinate will be ashamed to face Dao Master! Not only must we kill Qing Xuan, we must kill Qing Xuan's nine generations! "
"Qing Xuan caused this subordinate to be seriously injured last time, and this subordinate had to recuperate for four years to recover. This subordinate will not be satisfied if this grudge is not avenged! Dao Master, please allow us to continue to kill Qing Xuan! "
"..."
One by one, the old demons swore solemnly and sincerely, and one after another, they requested to continue to deal with Qing Xuan. Their words were sincere, as if they could not wait to dig up Qing Xuan's ancestral grave.
Lin Xuan seemed to be moved by everyone's loyalty. He laughed loudly and nodded approvingly, "Everyone's loyalty is commendable, I have seen it all with my eyes. With your help, my Divine Lotus Path has no need to worry about not prospering!
For Qing Xuan to be able to survive until now, he must have some tricks up his sleeves. Tell this seat what tricks that old thief has up his sleeves. Maybe our Divine Lotus Dao has a way to counter Qing Xuan. Next time when you go, you will be prepared. "
Zhong Xingyu's eyes flashed, and he said, "Qing Xuan's attainments in wisdom path and sword path are extremely deep, and his battle prowess far surpasses those of the same level. However, just based on this point alone, we are not afraid of him.
The most troublesome part is that Qing Xuan has a divine material of rules in his hands, and he can unleash some of the power of rules, causing us to suffer losses time and time again.
The power of rules is truly terrifying, and it is extremely difficult for Transcendent realm martial artists to resist. This is also the biggest obstacle for us to eliminate Qing Xuan. "
"Oh? I wonder what kind of divine material of rules Qing Xuan has? "Lin Xuan asked with interest.
Zhong Xingyu said, "Qing Xuan has a Luminous Divine Stone in his hands, and it contains a sealing rule. Qing Xuan can use a special method to activate some of the sealing power, making it difficult for us to resist. Perhaps, perhaps, only someone with the same power of rules can contend against it. "
"I see."
Lin Xuan's sword-like eyebrows twitched, and he nodded in realization.
He was not surprised that Qing Xuan had a divine material of rules in his hands. He even suspected that Qing Xuan might have more than one type of divine material of rules in his hands. This made his desire to kill Qing Xuan and seize his treasures even stronger.
However, Zhong Xingyu's thoughts made him secretly sneer in his heart.
Not only did this guy want to break free from his control, he actually had delusions of having ideas about the chaotic true gold in his possession.
There was really no one else with such guts.
The matter of him possessing the chaotic true gold was still unknown to the outside world for the time being, but these guys had seen it with their own eyes.
Even if it was to keep a secret, he would not allow these guys to escape from his control.
Now that he knew what he wanted to know, he could not be bothered to feign civility with these nine guys.
