Liu Wen was stunned and immediately asked, "How?"
"Sect Master, just pretend that you don't know anything and act as usual." Lu An said seriously, "Since they want to control the Four River Country, they won't take the initiative to attack you in the Sacred Land. Otherwise, they won't be able to obtain the power of the Sacred Land to manage the country. They might find an excuse to lure you out of the Sacred Land and make their move in a deserted place or the Endless Desert. "
"…"
Liu Wen's eyes became nervous. He knew a lot about the Spirit God Cult's strength. If the Spirit God Cult was determined to kill him, they definitely wouldn't send a level-seven Heavenly Master!
"I will stay here." Lu An looked at Liu Wen and said, "When they lure you away, I will go with you. Sect Master, you just need to remember not to trust anyone. The Spirit God Cult will use their divine consciousness to interfere. Anyone can become the enemy's puppet. "
Liu Wen nodded, but he was still worried. He said, "What if … a lot of people come?"
"As long as they are level-seven Heavenly Masters, it will be fine." Lu An said softly, "If there are level-eight Heavenly Masters, we can only act according to the situation."
Hearing the masked man's calm words, Liu Wen took a deep breath. He couldn't be looked down upon by an outsider after so many years of experience. He said loudly, "Okay!"
When Li heard that Lu An was going to stay in the Sacred Land, he quickly asked, "Are you not going back to the Spirit God Cult?"
"I'm not going back." Lu An looked at Li and asked, "What about you?"
"…" Li bit his lips and said, "I'm afraid that I will alert the enemy if I don't go back."
That's right. Li knew a lot. If Lu An didn't go back, it would be a temporary betrayal. After all, he had just joined the Spirit God Cult a few days ago. However, if he didn't go back, the Prime Minister might be suspicious and delay the operation against the Sacred Land.
"I'd better go back." Li took a deep breath and looked at Lu An. "This way, they can make their move with peace of mind."
Lu An nodded slightly and said, "As long as the Prime Minister and the Spirit God Cult make a move against the Sacred Land, you can leave the Spirit God Cult and go to General Tan's residence and wait for me to find you. If the Prime Minister suspects you, come find me in the Sacred Land. "
"Yes!" Li nodded and said, "I'll remember it."
Liu Wen looked at the two of them and asked Lu An, "But how are you going to stay in the Holy Land? If a friend suddenly appears by my side, it will make people suspicious. "
"They don't have to be friends." Lu An looked at Liu Wen and said, "Senior, you can say that I'm your disciple outside. That way, it won't arouse any suspicion."
Disciple?
Liu Wen was stunned. Even he was embarrassed. He laughed dryly and asked, "Is this … okay?"
"It's nothing. Don't worry about it." Lu An said softly, "When the time comes, I will take off my mask, but I will disguise myself a little. I don't want to show my true face."
Liu Wen was startled. He didn't know why this expert was hiding his face, but everyone had their own secrets, so he didn't care. He nodded and said, "Okay, since that's the case, I'll have to trouble you!"

The next morning.
After the conversation last night, Li had left the Holy Land and returned to the Royal City to report on his mission. Lu An naturally stayed in the Holy Land. He took off his mask and painted his whole body black with black dye, making him look like a young man who had grown up in a farm.
Although Lu An's face was considered handsome, other than his eyes, he was relatively ordinary and not easy to remember. After being painted like this, it was even harder to recognize him. In fact, Liu Wen had gone to the Apothecary Conference to meet Lu An, but Lu An didn't recognize him at all.
However, although he couldn't recognize Lu An's identity, such a young face was right in front of him. Liu Wen looked at Lu An, who was so young, and couldn't help but take a deep breath. Could it be that this expert had deliberately changed his appearance to this appearance in order to pretend to be his disciple?
However, it was impolite to ask such a question. In Liu Wen's opinion, this was the truth. He said, "By the way, I still don't know your name."
"You flatter me," Lu An said. "Sect Master, you can call me Little Six."
Little Six?
Upon hearing such a casual name, Liu Wen was stunned. After thinking for a while, he said, "That's good too. It's more believable. As my disciple, you can naturally stay on the main peak and stay by my side at all times. However … How strong are you? "
"A level-five Celestial Master," Lu An said. "That's more convincing."
Liu Wen nodded. Indeed, if one's strength was lower, they wouldn't be taken seriously by the dignified Sect Master of the Holy Land and wouldn't be accepted as a disciple.
Lu An released some of his aura, which happened to be at the level of a level-five Celestial Master. With the protection of the Hidden Immortal Ring, others could only sense his aura, but not his true strength.
Then, after the two of them roughly discussed Lu An's background and origin, the Sect Master of the Holy Land gathered all the elders and disciples on the main peak and announced his new disciple to everyone.
Liu Wen didn't have many disciples, only three, and Lu An was the fourth. However, everyone was very surprised that the Sect Master had suddenly brought back a disciple from the outside. After all, they hadn't been vigilant before this. Everyone's gaze was on the person named 'Little Six.' This person's skin was dark and didn't look special. However, his aura was that of a level-five Celestial Master. At the very least, his cultivation talent was not bad.
Naturally, no one objected to the Sect Master's decision. The status of the Sect Master's disciple was much higher than that of the other disciples. Lu An quickly integrated into the environment of the main peak. The other three disciples of the Sect Master were also polite to Lu An and didn't cause any trouble.
In order to build a good relationship with Lu An, the others wanted to have lunch with Lu An, but Lu An rejected them. He wasn't really here to integrate into the environment. He was waiting for the enemy to arrive. Before the enemy arrived, he couldn't waste any time, so he locked himself in the house to cultivate. When the others saw the new Little Six cultivating so diligently, they couldn't help but be speechless.
Lu An's arrival didn't cause too much of a commotion. Even if there were spies from the Spiritual God Cult in the main peak, the ordinary Lu An wouldn't hinder their plans at all. After all, he was a true expert. Why would he lower himself to be a disciple of someone else?
On the other side, after Li returned to the Spiritual God Cult, the Prime Minister was clearly angry when she found out that the masked man had escaped. Li meant that the masked man had been bewitched by that group of righteous people and had listened to their persuasion to escape. She wasn't able to stop him.
Li's words were all lies that he had thought over and over again. There wasn't any problem with it, so the Prime Minister had no choice but to believe it. After all, when she recruited the masked man, this person was also deceived by him with a few words. In her opinion, such chivalrous people were basically brainless people!
"Forget it! It doesn't matter if he's one less! " The Prime Minister took a deep breath and waved her hand. "Recently, I still have other important matters to attend to. Once it's done, the entire Si Jiang Country will be mine! What can a mere level-six Celestial Master do? "
Hearing this, Li's heart jolted. Puzzled, she asked, "What does the Prime Minister want to do?"
Looking at the bewildered Li, the Prime Minister revealed a treacherous smile and said, "Although you haven't been with me for long, I trust you very much. I might as well tell you that in three days, the entire Si Jiang Country will be under my control! At that time, even the king will have to listen to my orders. As long as you wholeheartedly stay by my side, you can do whatever you want in the Si Jiang Country! "
Hearing the Prime Minister's words, Li clearly became even more astonished. Her expression was filled with surprise and joy. She even trembled as she said, "The Prime Minister wants to … wants to …"
"In three days, the Sect Master of the Sacred Ground will die. The king will also die." The Prime Minister's smile became even more treacherous as she said, "Someone will replace the Sect Master of the Sacred Ground. I will also support a puppet prince to become the king. In another one or two years, this puppet will use his inability to manage the country as an excuse and personally issue an edict to pass the throne to me. At that time, I will be the rightful king of the Si Jiang Country! "
With that, the Prime Minister took a deep breath and laughed loudly towards the sky. "At that time, the entire Si Jiang Country will be mine! Hahahaha!!! "
Looking at the Prime Minister's appearance, although Li felt disgusted, on the surface, he had to express a congratulatory look.
Three days …
Li really didn't expect it to be so fast. There were only three days left!
