"I'm here today as the Maoshan Sect Leader. This has nothing to do with the Imperial Court," Lu Yuanshan said to the crowd with a smile. "Master Gesang, please rise. Fellow Daoists, please rise."
He was very pleased with the respect everyone was showing him.
On the surface, he appeared to be modest and polite, but in reality, he was overjoyed and overjoyed.
He only had one purpose in attending the Demon Slaying Conference, and that was to use this unprecedented Spiritual Conference to show his face. He wanted to let all the heroes and sects know that he was not only the Maoshan Sect Leader, but also the Imperial Court's Imperial Advisor. He was second only to one person!
"The Imperial Advisor is low-key and magnanimous. I'm impressed," Gesang Douji said as he extended his hand toward the Spiritual Platform. "Please, Imperial Advisor!"
"Master, please!" Lu Yuanshan smiled.
The two of them walked side by side toward the Spiritual Platform as they spoke.
The Eight Yin Yang Disciples and the three hundred enemies automatically made way for them with respectful looks on their faces.
Although Lu Yuanshan said that he was attending the Spiritual Conference as the Maoshan Sect Leader, his status as the Imperial Advisor was still respected. No one dared to be disrespectful.
"Big Brother, there seems to be something wrong with the person following behind Lu Yuanshan." The sharp-eyed Di Kun rushed to Tian Qian's side and whispered into his ear.
"I've already seen through what you said," Tian Qian said to Di Kun as he looked at Lu Yuanshan and his disciple. "However, this has nothing to do with us. Our goal is to get rid of Eldritch. We don't care about anything else."
Di Kun nodded slowly.
"Is this person the reincarnation of Eldritch?" Lu Yuanshan asked with a frown as he led the crowd to the Eight Extreme Spell Pillars and looked at Ye Fan who was tortured beyond recognition.
The severity of the punishment the person in front of him had been subjected to made him slightly surprised.
"Sect Leader Lu is right. This person is the reincarnation of Eldritch," Gesang Douji replied.
Lu Yuanshan raised his head and looked at the Golden Buddha Treasure Bowl floating above Ye Fan's head. He then looked at the Eight Extreme Spell Pillars behind Ye Fan and nodded slightly.
No wonder they were able to capture this Eldritch. It turned out that they had the help of magic tools.
"Master's Dharma is superb. The people of Tibet can be said to be bathed in Buddha's grace," Lu Yuanshan said to Gesang Dorji with a smile.
"Sect Master Lu is too polite. Please come in." Ge Sang Doji continued to invite Lu Yuanshan inside.
Lu Yuanshan smiled and followed Gesang Doji onto the thirty-feet-tall platform.
After a series of pretentious excuses, Lu Yuanshan sat next to Gesandoj.
This was the Tibetan area. Almost everyone believed in Buddhism. The Dharma Assembly was held in front of the Sweet Dew Temple. Although he was the Great Ming's State Preceptor, he was still a Taoist after all. If he sat on the main seat, it would be unreasonable. Moreover, Eldritch was captured by Gesang Doji. Gesang Doji was the main character.
While drinking the fragrant butter tea, he asked Gesang Dorj about the customs of the Tibetan people, pretending to be sympathetic to the people.
After all, he was now the State Preceptor of the Great Ming. His status was different from before.
Gesang Doji answered carefully, not daring to neglect.
The Savage Corpse King's incarnation, Dao Xian, stood quietly behind Lu Yuanshan, looking at Ye Fan on the Eight Extreme Spell Pillars expressionlessly.
He was the Millennial Corpse King. He had heard about Eldritch's incident.
Looking at Ye Fan, who had lost all his cultivation and was tortured, he felt a little uncomfortable.
To be honest, he admired what Eldritch had done in the past. He appreciated Eldritch's crazy and unruly character very much and sympathized with him.
He had always wanted to meet Eldritch, but he never had a chance.
When he was alive, he was deep in the wilderness, dealing with the affairs of the country and had no time to spare. After he died, he turned into the Savage Corpse King and hid in the dark all day, living a life of savagery. It was even more impossible for him to meet Eldritch.
Now, he finally met Eldritch, who was rumored to have heaven-defying strength, but he didn't expect to see him on such an occasion.
He didn't expect that Eldritch, who even the immortals of the Heaven Realm couldn't do anything about back then, would fall into such a situation now. It really made him sigh.
He had lost half of his corpse core and was living under someone else's roof. It was already hard enough, but compared to Eldritch, he was already living in happiness.
"That Lu Yuanshan, who let him come?" In the crowd outside the venue, a young man dressed as a scholar frowned and asked an old man beside him.
This person had a dignified appearance and looked like Bufan. Although he was disguised, he still couldn't hide his noble aura. He was none other than the current Crown Prince!
Looking at Lu Yuanshan, who was sitting high on the ritual platform with a smug face, he was a little dissatisfied.
"Your Highness, you don't know. Although he is already the current Imperial Advisor, he is still the Maoshan Sect Leader," the old man dressed as a servant said. "Spiritual gatherings like the Demon Slaying Conference have always been attended by the various Sect Leaders to show that they are subduing demons and promoting justice."
This old man was the Crown Prince's special technique expert. On this trip to Tibet, he was in charge of the Crown Prince's daily life and personal guard.
"Where are our people? Has everything been arranged? "the Crown Prince asked the old man in a low voice.
"Everything has been arranged," the old man replied. "Gunpowder has been buried under the ground 100 feet around Ye Fan. More than 30 experts have all disguised themselves and are scattered in the crowd. As long as there is a chance, I will send out a secret signal to detonate the gunpowder and let them take advantage of the chaos to save him."
The Crown Prince nodded slowly.
Just as the Crown Prince and the old eunuch were discussing how to rescue Ye Fan, the gatekeeper at the door shouted, "Zhang Shaoyang, the Sect Leader of Zhengyi, and Yu Xingchen, the Sect Leader of Quanzhen, have arrived!"
Gesang Dorji, who was talking to Lu Yuanshan, heard that Zhang Shaoyang of Longhu Mountain and Yu Xingchen of Quanzhen Sect had arrived. He stood up again and went down the stairs to welcome them.
The Eight Yin Yang Disciples followed closely behind.
Zhengyi, Quanzhen, and Maoshan were known as the three major sects of Taoism, especially Zhengyi Sect, which was the leader of Taoism. Naturally, they didn't dare to slight them.
Lu Yuanshan, who was sitting in his seat, narrowed his eyes and drank his tea quietly.
According to the rules, he should also stand up to welcome them. After all, Zhengyi and Quanzhen Sect's status in Taoism was higher than his Maoshan.
However, that was all in the past.
Now that he was the Imperial Preceptor, his status was respected. As a result, the status of the Maoshan Sect naturally skyrocketed. It was no longer the same as before.
At the entrance of the venue, two Taoists in gold-threaded robes slowly walked in.
The Taoist on the left was eight feet tall, handsome, and chiseled. His eyes were like torches. He was Zhang Shaoyang, the Sect Leader of Zhengyi Sect of Longhu Mountain.
The Taoist on the right had dark eyebrows, starry eyes, and a handsome face. He was none other than Yu Xingchen, the Sect Leader of Quanzhen Sect.
Zhang Shaoyang cursed in a low voice as he walked in, "What bad luck! I saw that Lu guy as soon as I came in!"
"He's the Imperial Preceptor now. You should keep a low profile." Yu Xingchen, who was walking side by side with Zhang Shaoyang, advised Zhang Shaoyang, "It doesn't matter if you offend him, but Zhengyi Sect will suffer."
Zhang Shaoyang snorted and glanced at Lu Yuanshan.
Lu Yuanshan looked at Zhang Shaoyang coldly and drank his tea quietly.
He was no longer the old Lu Yuanshan. Not only was he the Imperial Preceptor now, but his cultivation was also incomparable to before.
"Celestial Master Zhang, Sect Leader Yu." Ge Sang Duoji, who came to the door, greeted Zhang Shaoyang and Yu Xingchen.
He had once met the two of them. At that time, the Emperor of the Great Ming Dynasty had once held a Buddhist prayer assembly, gathering the abbot of all the famous temples and Taoist temple masters to pray for the prosperity of the country. It was also at that assembly that he met the two famous Taoist masters in Jianghu.
"Master Ge Sang." Zhang Shaoyang and Yu Xingchen stopped and greeted Ge Sang Duoji.
"The Eight Yin Yang Masters greet the two sect leaders." Tian Qian, along with the other seven disciples, bowed to the two as a Taoist.
The Zhengyi Sect and the Quanzhen Sect were famous Taoist sects with orthodox lineages. The eight of them did not dare to slight them.
The Eight Yin Yang Masters?
Tian Qian's words made Zhang Shaoyang and Yu Xingchen frown and look at each other.
They had heard about the Eight Yin Yang Masters before. Now that the other party called themselves the Eight Yin Yang Masters, they were a little confused.
Tian Qian smiled and told the two of them about the situation.
Zhang Shaoyang and Yu Xingchen suddenly understood. They nodded slightly and returned the greeting.
Although the two of them had some opinions about the Eight Yin Yang Masters' actions back then, they were from the same sect after all, so they had to put on an act.
"Sect Leaders, what a rare guest. Please come in!" Ge Sang Duoji put his palms together and greeted the two of them warmly.
"Master, you're too polite," Zhang Shaoyang replied. "You don't have to greet us. We'll just sit on the side."
Except for the entrance in the southeast corner, the entire venue was surrounded by tables and chairs. Zhang Shaoyang did not want to sit with Lu Yuanshan, so he proposed to sit on the side and refused to sit on the main altar.
"How can this do?" Ge Sang Duoji did not know that the two of them had a grudge with Lu Yuanshan. He said, "If I let the two of you sit on the side, wouldn't I be guilty of not treating my guests well? Please take a seat on the altar. "
As he spoke, he invited the two of them to the altar.
"We appreciate the master's kindness," Yu Xingchen said to Ge Sang Duoji. "The two of us are used to being free and undisciplined. We don't like formal occasions. The side seats are quieter. Please let us sit casually."
Yu Xingchen was a calm person. He knew when to speak and when to act, unlike Zhang Shaoyang, who was straightforward.
"This … Okay …" Ge Sang Duoji thought for a moment and said, "It's convenient for others and convenient for ourselves. Since the two of you prefer peace and quiet, this old monk will follow suit."
"Thank you, master," Zhang Shaoyang said to Ge Sang Duoji. He turned and walked to the side seats, ignoring the Eight Yin Yang Masters.
Yu Xingchen nodded to the crowd and followed closely behind.
Ge Sang Duoji looked at the backs of the two and frowned slightly. He then turned and led the Eight Yin Yang Masters to the altar.
"The Eight Yin Yang Masters are not good people either," Zhang Shaoyang said to Yu Xingchen as he walked.
"What do you mean?" Yu Xingchen asked.
"Aside from them, who else would be able to use such a vicious punishment?" Zhang Shaoyang said as he looked at Ye Fan, who was tied to the Octupole Spell Pillar and deformed beyond recognition.
"How do you know they did it?" Yu Xingchen asked as he walked.
"Can the motley crew on the altar make these pillars?" Zhang Shaoyang turned his head and asked Yu Xingchen.
Yu Xingchen shook his head.
The Eight Extreme Spell Pillars were obviously set up by a Taoist master. The mountain spirits and wild monsters on the altar did not have this ability at all.
"Among the Eight Yin Yang Masters, did you notice the horsetail whisk and sword of the second Taoist?" Zhang Shaoyang turned his head and asked again.
Yu Xingchen shook his head again.
"The tip of his horsetail whisk is white with a hint of red. The blood stains are too deep. The sword on his back is also faintly glowing with blood," Zhang Shaoyang said with a frown. "If I'm not wrong, the injuries on Eldritch's arms and eyes were caused by him."
Yu Xingchen frowned and turned his head to look at Di Kun. At the same time, he used his Heavenly Eye Technique!
Buzz …
Two golden lights flashed across Yu Xingchen's eyes!
Yu Xingchen's frown deepened when he saw this.
The sword on Di Kun's back was glowing with blood, while the swords of the other Seven Yin Yang Masters were all normal.
Zhang Shaoyang's analysis was completely correct!
"Look at the crowd again," Zhang Shaoyang said in a low voice.
Yu Xingchen immediately turned his head to look at the crowd and scanned back and forth.
Yu Xingchen's expression changed immediately when he saw this!
Among the crowd, a young man with the appearance of Bufan stood there quietly. His body was surrounded by a golden light that shone through the top of his head!
"Emperor Star!" Yu Xingchen blurted out!
"Shh …" Zhang Shaoyang put his index finger to his lips, indicating for Yu Xingchen to keep quiet.
