Start flat, cut off the wife of the five-star empress

Lu Yuan pushed open the teahouse door and saw a spacious and bright hall in front of him.

Purple curtains hang from the high and luxurious ceiling, and the monks are full of people enjoying wine and refreshments.

He noticed that a chessboard for people to play was placed in the corner of the hall.

An old man and a young man are planning a competition.

Lu Yuan glanced around and found no trace of Su Liyan.

He decided to find a seat and wait.

Just when Lu Yuan was about to sit down, a clear and sweet voice came from the corner: "Lu Yuan, please come here."

He looked towards where the sound was and saw Zi Xi'er sitting in a corner.

Wearing a lavender dress, she exuded elegance in her movements.

Like the most dazzling dancer in the city.

Lu Yuan quickly walked over and sat down next to her.

"Zi Xi'er, what's the matter with our meeting today?" Lu Yuan asked.

Zi Xi'er smiled slightly, her eyes like stars: "Lu Yuan, there's something I've been thinking about recently."

"The forces of the Red Lotus Sect and the Blood Moon Sect seem to be flourishing around us."

"They are hiding in the dark and it is difficult for us to get accurate information."

Lu Yuan nodded and listened to her words carefully.

Zi Xi'er continued: "Our clan has a huge intelligence network, but in the past we only used it to protect the clan itself and never thought about it outside."

"I think if we can use this advantage to collect the movements of the Red Lotus Sect and the Blood Moon Sect, we can respond in time and protect the family."

Lu Yuan thought about it and responded: "You are right."

“Intelligence is critical to planning ahead.”

"Perhaps we can send an elite team to explore the enemy's raid route and pass the collected intelligence back to the family."

Zi Xi'er's pupils shrank slightly, "It's a good idea to send an elite team."

"They can use the power of your combination to explore dangerous roads and send back key information."

"This way, we can better worry about the safety of our family."

Their conversation took place quietly in the teahouse.

Zi Xi'er raised her head high, with a look of determination on her face.

Just as Lu Yuan was about to continue the discussion, a family elder hurriedly walked up to them: "Lu Yuan, Zi Xi'er, something important has happened in the Ziyun family. Please go to the secret meeting hall of the Ziyun family immediately."

After hearing the news, Lu Yuan and Zi Xi'er immediately stood up.

They couldn't help but look around, and all the cultivators in the city were talking about it.

Apparently, the news has spread.

Entering the secret meeting hall with the family's senior officials, Lu Yuan saw that some important people had gathered in the room, including some powerful and experienced elders.

Zi Cuiling looks graceful and graceful, with nobility and scorn between her brows.

She is the leader of the Ziyun family, and so many elders and family members will attend the orders she sends.

"Does anyone know the purpose of our gathering?"

Zi Cuiling looked around, expecting the responses from everyone around her.

After a while, no one dared to speak.

At this time, Lu Yuan stood up and said, "I heard that someone is plotting to attack our family?"

Everyone was shocked and woke up.

Zi Cuiling ordered with a restrained expression: "We must obtain information as soon as possible to stop their plan."

Lu Yuan said: "I suggest sending an elite team to explore the enemy's possible raid route." "At the same time, you can consider using the family's advantage to collect the trends of the Red Lotus Sect and Blood Moon Sect."

Zi Cuiling nodded solemnly: "Good idea."

"Lu Yuan, you and Mody will lead an elite team to take charge of this mission."

In the deepest part of Cangqiong Temple, Hong Laitian stood in front of Lu Yuan and introduced to him in detail the secret operation that the Ghost Sect was about to launch.

His voice was low and firm, revealing a sense of determination and crisis.

"Lu Yuan, the Ghost Sect plans to raid the secret meeting hall of our Ziyun family."

A solemn look appeared on Hong Litian's face, "They are preparing to use necromancy to create chaos. I am worried that my life will be in danger."

Lu Yuan frowned and thought, and said to Hong Litian, "This plan sounds quite dangerous."

"That's why I need your support."

Hong Litian looked determined, "I know you are good at lightning magic and detection magic, which will be very helpful to our plan."

Lu Yuan nodded slightly: "I can provide you with a batch of specially made necromancy talismans, which can enhance the power of your necromancy spells."

A flash of joy flashed in Hong Litian's eyes: "Thank you very much!"

"That way, we'll have a better chance of winning during the operation."

Lu Yuan was thinking about how to combine the talisman with the power of thunder and lightning to make it more powerful.

He knew it was a very difficult challenge, but he believed he could find a solution.

Hong Litian couldn't help but feel relieved when he saw Lu Yuan's expression.

He knew that with Lu Yuan's help, their chances of winning against the Ghost Sect would be greatly increased.

"Thank you for your support, Lu Yuan."

Hong Litian said gratefully, "We must act as soon as possible."

Lu Yuan nodded firmly: "I will complete the undead talisman as soon as possible and consider how to combine it with the power of thunder and lightning."

The two shook hands in tacit understanding, and saw in each other's eyes their determination to challenge together in the future.

As they were about to leave the Sky Temple, a sudden ghostly aura filled the air.

"They've discovered us!"

Hong Litian's expression changed and he reminded Lu Yuan.

Along with this ghostly aura, a group of men in black quietly appeared in the temple.

Everyone wears a mask with a huge black animal head, making it impossible to tell their true identity.

Lu Yuan tightly held the Tiangang Thunder Fire Sword in his hand and stared at the man in black.

Hong Laitian raised the ghost staff in his hand, exuding a faint light.

"We can't let them ruin our plan!" Hong Laitian said with a look of determination on his face.

Lu Yuan's heart was full of fighting spirit. He knew that only by defeating these people from the Ghost Sect could he and his family be protected.

The two people attacked the man in black together, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense and intense.

They intertwined at lightning speed, sparks flying and thunder appearing with every swing.

Lu Yuan, who was agile and his sword was as bright as lightning, and Hong Litian, who was wielding his staff and releasing the power of ghosts, formed an insurmountable barrier.

The men in black were besieged inside the temple and were in a clearly suppressed situation.

As the bell rang deep in the Cangqiong Temple, Lu Yuan and Hong Litian teamed up to defeat the last man in black.

In a hidden space near the Heavenly Court, Taishang Daozu and Lu Yuan stood face to face.

Taishang Daozu's eyes were profound, revealing a sense of solemnity and mystery. (End of chapter)
