Chapter 994 -288: The Secret of the Blood Lion Sect

They were testing each other simply to learn about the other’s background, and both were talking in circles, spouting a lot of nonsense.

Knowing that this would only waste time, Feng You cleared his throat and said, “Mr. Gouchen, since we are fated to meet today, I, as an old Daoist, will speak plainly. The monk and the Daoist Priest have gathered in Beimang for the Wuyi Sect, but I don’t know why you have come here, Mr. Gouchen. What business do you have?”

Finally getting to the point after much intriguing and strategizing, Tang Luo picked up his teacup and said indifferently, “I have only ever worshipped heaven, earth, and my ancestors in this life; I do not revere all the gods and Buddhas everywhere. This Southern Emperor founded the Wuyi Sect, claiming to be divine yet remains hidden, never showing his face. I just want to see what virtues and abilities the Wuyi Sect possesses!”

“Mr. is really…”

Recalling the meeting half a year ago in the Wilderness, Feng You had a bitter smile on his face. It seemed like this man was born to oppose the celestials. With the support of Buddha’s Country, the Feitian Sect was destroyed at a moment’s notice, not even offering face to the Victorious Venerable Liaoyin, truly leaving others at a loss. “Mr., are you aware that half a year ago, the Esoteric Sect dispatched several Vajra Masters, and even the Dutian Heavenly King has sent his spies to investigate. As soon as there is any news of Mr., the strong members of the Esoteric Sect will appear in no more than half a month. When the Dutian Heavenly King’s net covers Beimang, how will Mr. handle himself?”

“How do the Vajra Masters compare to Liaoyin? Are the Dutian Heavenly King’s spies not afraid of death?”

Tang Luo said chillingly, “Has the Daoist Priest ever seen a hawk hiding from a sparrow?”

“…”

Feng You fell silent for a moment. At this point, the Esoteric Sect had deployed several master-strength Vajra Masters to Gouchen, and he himself certainly wouldn’t have been so high-profile in their shoes. But the other party seemed hell-bent on causing trouble for the Wuyi Sect, utterly disregarding the strong members of the Esoteric Sect and even the Dutian Heavenly King, leaving Feng You to wonder whether it was confidence or arrogance.

Yet, an existence without a specific target, intent on overturning just for the sake of it, and possessing formidable strength, was exactly the kind of outstanding ally one sought.

The Bone Taoist’s attitude became even more respectful as he sighed, “With Mr.’s martial skills that scorn the world, naturally, you can come and go freely as you please. However, the monks of the Esoteric Sect have many mysteries, and Mr. must still be cautious. If there is any need for assistance, just speak, and as long as the Ancient Blood Tower can help, we will not refuse!”

“Isn’t the Ancient Blood Tower an assassination organization? I stand alone, I can’t afford to hire an assassin.”

“You jest, Mr.,” Feng You said with a laugh as he took out a piece of Blood Jade from his bosom, placed it on the table, and slid it towards Tang Luo, “With the union of Buddha’s Country and the Dutian Heavenly King, with Mr.’s strength, no one can restrain you as long as you do not engage in direct conflict. However, the Dutian Heavenly King’s influence is widespread, and some of their vile methods must be guarded against. Having more friends opens more paths, and the sincerity of the Blood Tower is as clear as the sun and the moon. Why must Mr. refuse others several miles away?”

Tang Luo pinched the exquisite and translucent Blood Jade between his fingers and toyed with it for a while. He discovered a micro-carved formation within the jade, through which a mysterious red Spiritual Power circulated.

Although Tang Luo only had a superficial knowledge of formations, he could tell that to carve such a formation inside a jade of finger size required the skill of a formation grandmaster. Blood Tower was said to be a place of lost souls, yet upon closer contact, he realized that the foundation of the Blood Tower far surpassed what one would expect of an ordinary noble family.

This piece of Blood Jade alone, from a technical standpoint, must be far superior to Xuanji Jade by an inestimable amount. What’s more valuable is that the Blood Jade, with its carved formation, is a piece of reusable Divine Jade.

“One should not take a reward without rendering services; such a valuable item should be taken back by the Daoist Priest.”

With not a hint of greed in his eyes, Tang Luo flicked the Blood Jade with a snap of his fingers, sending it precisely back in front of Feng You.

“Mr. must not misunderstand. This jade is not intended to buy your favor, we merely wish to ask for Mr.’s help.”

The Bone Taoist said with a smile, “The carving in the Blood Jade is merely a Formation Stake for sending messages to the Blood Tower. Mr. must have heard of the grudge between the Blood Tower and Buddha’s Country. If Mr. encounters monks from the Esoteric Sect or negotiators from the Dutian Heavenly King, simply inject Spiritual Power into the Blood Jade, and the old Daoist and the monks will receive the message and come quickly. The Blood Tower will not miss any chance to weaken the forces of the Dutian Heavenly King and Buddha’s Country. Please make it convenient for Mr.”

As he spoke, Feng You pushed the Blood Jade back towards Tang Luo and said reverently, “In return, I, on behalf of the Blood Tower, promise Mr. a free Heaven-ranked mission. What does Mr. think?”

Glancing at the Blood Jade presented once again, Tang Luo said with a smile, “This is the first time in my life that I have met a Daoist Priest who can speak so eloquently. I will accept this jade!”

“Then I must thank Mr. Gouchen for his kindness.”

Feng You smiled and nodded her head, ready to strike while the iron was hot to further establish relations; however, suddenly she received a transmission from the Corpse Refiner and quickly changed the subject, “The news about sir killing Wuyi Sect’s General Yunhui will probably spread throughout the Beimang territory before long. Wolf Fang Mountain is no longer a safe place to stay. May I ask what sir plans to do next?”

“You need not worry about that, Daoist Priest.” Tang Luo placed the Blood Jade into his sleeve and stood up, saying, “But your words do remind me. It is indeed unsafe to stay at Snake Fang Mountain any longer. I shall take my leave now!”

“That might be for the best.” Feng You also stood up, “I look forward to our next meeting, sir.”

As they passed by each other, Tang Luo, who was approaching the door, suddenly stopped in his tracks and said indifferently, “Daoist Priest, has anyone ever told you that compared to a martial artist or a Daoist priest, you’re more like a merchant?”

Behind the white bone mask, Feng You’s expression suddenly changed, “Sir does enjoy his jokes.”

“Is that so? Perhaps.”

Having left the tent, Tang Luo rose into the air with the wind, while Feng You, who remained inside the tent, wore a grim expression.

After a while, the Corpse Monk entered the tent, carrying a corpse that had been refined, with a look of satisfaction on his face.

“Daoist Priest, come and see the intelligence the monk has found!”

Throwing the corpse to the ground, Gu Han laughed and said, “The monk intercepted a secret letter from the Ji Family and caught a spy from the Ji Family. Do you know what intelligence this spy had uncovered?”

“It seems the master has made quite the discovery!”

Feng You, having composed herself, smiled toward the Corpse Monk.

“It’s more than that!”

Gu Han said with emotion, “The Ji Family truly deserves to be the overlord of Beimang. Their spies are everywhere, penetrating every secret. Ten years ago, Ji Xuanyuan sent spies into the Wuyi Sect and even managed to become one of the three leaders on Hui Ling Mountain!”

Kicking the corpse that had become a refined corpse, Gu Han continued to Feng You, “After returning to the Wuyi Sect, this person was highly valued by the Grandmaster. But what the Grandmaster never expected was that this fellow was no ordinary spy. He was born with a peculiar talent; his sense of smell was dozens of times that of a normal person, and everyone has their unique scent. As long as he had met someone once, he could identify them by smell alone!”

“There are countless talented and extraordinary people in the world; it’s indeed a shame that the Ji Family turned such a unique individual into a spy!”

Feng You sighed, which made Gu Han wave his hands repeatedly in disagreement.

“It’s not a shame at all!”

The Corpse Monk proudly declared, “Had this spy not been such a person, the entire Beimang would have been played by the Grandmaster of the Blood Lion in the palm of his hand.”

“How so?”

“The young man who came to Beimang to preach ten years ago, and the Grandmaster of the Blood Lion ten years later, are one and the same person!”
