In an era where everyone is cultivating immortality, the system wants me to become a demon?

Chapter 392: Using this to test the blond guy? Which blond guy can't withstand such a test!

After giving her numerous instructions and handing over the county magistrate duties to Qi Hanyue, and sending her to the county magistrate's secluded retreat, Su Yuan returned to the Yaksha.

At this moment, Mortis had already taken out a flying boat made entirely of white bones, waiting for Su Yuan to board it before setting off.

On the deck of the Yaksha, Chen Nuoyi looked at Su Yuan, who already had one foot on the airship, and instead of saying anything sentimental, made a final confirmation:

"From now on, the Phoenix Pirates will use the excuse of the breakdown in negotiations with Mortis to sail the Sea of ​​Law, oppose the Blood God Cult at every turn, and strike at all pirates on the sea, especially those pirates with ties to the Blood God Cult."

"At the same time, the Longcheng County Navy, led by the county magistrate, will set sail within half a month, also with the mission of suppressing pirates."

"Once the pirates in the surrounding waters have become insignificant and unable to capture enough people for blood sacrifice, thus attracting the attention of the Blood God Cult, you and Mortis will seize the opportunity to act and try to maintain the fragile balance on the sea."

"That's the general direction of our plan, right?"

Su Yuan nodded slightly and added:
"If the Blood God Cult goes all out to raise one million offerings, and we are powerless to stop it, then Saintess Mo and I will do our best to prevent the flames of war from reaching the civilians."

After saying that, Su Yuan smiled again and said:

"We all bear heavy responsibilities, so we must each do our best."

"See you on the Blood God Cult's holy island in a month."

Upon hearing this, a hint of gentleness appeared in the girl's golden eyes, and she nodded softly.

See you on the Holy Island.

Su Yuan took one last deep look at the blue-haired, golden-eyed girl, his face changing from Su Youlin back to Su Yuan's true appearance. Then, he turned around and entered the Bone Flying Boat without looking back.

The flying boat took off and sped towards Fazhou.

Su Yuan and Mortis sat facing each other, and the latter glanced at Su Yuan's face:
"Is this what you really look like?"

"Yes, you can call me Su Yuan in front of others."

If you want to infiltrate the Blood God Cult, you definitely can't use County Chief Su's connections.

Fortunately, this was Su Yuan's first appearance in the Heavenly Law World, so there was no need to devise a new identity; he could simply use his original appearance and name.

However, he did not remove the Immortal Skin Mask, because this treasure could effectively conceal Nascent Soul level or even higher level magic weapons such as the Calamity Moon Pearl, the Crimson Yuan Sword, and the Mysterious Abnormal Sword.

The White Bone Flying Boat flew very fast, arriving at Fazhou in about ten hours.

Along the coast of this region lies a city called 'Sanyuan Prefecture', a bustling metropolis that conceals the headquarters of the Blood God Cult.

Outside the city of Sanyuan Prefecture, Mortis put away the White Bone Flying Boat and entered the city with Su Yuan. They soon arrived at a building that was not particularly conspicuous.

The building bears the three large characters "Nine Lotus Sect".

"That's the headquarters of the Blood God Cult inside. Blood Soul True Monarch and some of the cult's high-ranking members are there."

As she spoke, Mortis stepped inside.

How dare they mingle in the bustling areas of Sanyuan Prefecture with a fake name? The Blood God Cult is quite arrogant.

Su Yuan muttered to himself.

He guessed that the celestial officials of the Three Yuan Prefecture might not be unaware of the Nine Lotus Sect's true nature, but were simply pretending not to know out of some tacit understanding.

For example, taxes, and the livelihoods of millions of laborers...

They're all bad birds.

After passing through the seemingly normal reception desk, and directly entering a wall that appeared to be solid but was actually an illusion, a new world appeared before Su Yuan.

This is a huge palace with an overall dark red architectural style, and a grand scale, resembling a secret realm.

Inside the palace, there was a faint, sweet-smelling scent of blood after it had been treated. Blood God Cult disciples dressed in blood-red or black robes moved through the hall, each performing their duties.

Upon seeing Mortis, they immediately stopped what they were doing, bowed respectfully, and addressed her as the Holy Maiden.

Mortis did not linger outside the main hall, leading Su Yuan straight to the center of the hall and stopping in front of an antique-style study.

Just then, a steady and deep voice rang out from behind the door:
"Xiao Mo is back after finishing his business? Come in."

"Yes."

Mortis responded softly, but did not rush to go inside.

Her pale gold eyes flickered, and her gaze suddenly became lively from a stagnant stillness. A small, soft red hat also appeared on her head.

Immediately afterward, she wrapped her arms around Su Yuan's arm with lightning speed, and said with a grin:

"Hehe, Xiao Mo is indeed not good at handling these kinds of situations. This is the time for me to step in."

Su Yuan: "..."

Sister, can we please not do such intimate things in front of Blood Soul True Lord?
Even if it's fake, it won't work.

I always feel like doing this is teetering on the edge of death.

In the end, Su Yuan said nothing, trying his best to maintain a cold and aloof demeanor, and followed Mortis as she pushed open the study door. Then, he felt himself locked onto by a cold and sharp gaze, causing all the muscles in his body to involuntarily tense up.

Barely suppressing his discomfort, Su Yuan slightly raised his head to look at the person in front of him. It was a middle-aged man wearing a red robe with gold dragon patterns, a golden crown on his head, and a strong, imposing presence.

In the world of Heavenly Law, there is no concept of emperors, dragon robes, or python robes; therefore, the clothing of middle-aged men is not considered taboo.

However, judging from his demeanor, he really does carry off this outfit; in a period drama, he would at least be a prince, if not an emperor.

Needless to say, this person must be Blood Soul True Monarch.

After staring at Su Yuan for a few seconds, Blood Soul True Monarch turned his gaze to Mortis, as if he wanted to ask something.

But before he could speak, Mortis pouted in dissatisfaction:
"Master, why are you looking so fierce? You'll scare Su Yuan."

Blood Soul True Monarch opened his mouth slightly, then slowly closed it again.

Mortis freed one hand from her grip on Su Yuan's arm and pointed at Su Yuan, saying:
"Let me introduce you. Su Yuan is a rogue cultivator I met when I was contacting those big pirates on the sea. He and I really got along very well, and we became good friends in just a few days."

“He has been alone for a long time and longed for a place to belong, so I brought him to our Blood God Cult.”

"Please, Master, you must accept him as your disciple. He will surely bring glory and honor to our Blood God Sect in the future."

Blood Soul True Monarch remained silent, but the deep handprint he made on the table and the furrowing of his brows revealed the turmoil in his heart.

The atmosphere in the study suddenly became somewhat stiff.

Seeing this, Su Yuan had no choice but to bite the bullet and cup his hands in a respectful gesture, saying:
"Junior Su Yuan greets True Lord."

At this moment, Blood Soul True Monarch finally spoke.

He coldly said to Su Yuan:
“My apprentice is inexperienced and easily deceived by bad people, but that doesn’t mean I will be deceived by shady characters.”

"If I discover that you are an undercover agent planted by the righteous forces, I will make you experience all the punishments in the world."

"Now I'm giving you a chance. As long as you obediently leave the Blood God Cult, I can let it go."

It would be strange if they didn't investigate. If I really dared to run away, I would be stabbed ten times in the back as soon as I stepped out the door, which would be suicide.

Su Yuan thought to himself, but said solemnly on the surface:
“True Lord, I am prepared to endure any test. As long as I can work with Saintess Mo and spend every day with her, I am willing to do anything.”

Before he finished speaking, the temperature in the entire study suddenly dropped several degrees.

Su Yuan knew, of course, that his words were tantamount to courting death, but that was exactly the effect he wanted.

He had to give Blood Soul True Lord a reason, a reason to stay in the Blood God Cult even at the risk of death.

These words could be considered a valid reason by Blood Soul True Monarch, regardless of whether he thought Su Yuan was a young punk toying with his disciple's feelings, an ambitious schemer trying to seize the Blood God Cult's assets, or a pure-hearted war god who would do anything for love.

Only someone with ulterior motives can avoid unnecessary suspicion.

More importantly, these words were also intended to emphasize the close relationship between himself and Mortis.

As long as Blood Soul True Monarch values ​​this disciple, he cannot kill Su Yuan on trumped-up charges.

As expected, Blood Soul True Monarch was furious, but he showed no intention of attacking. Instead, he laughed in extreme anger:
"You want to stay in the Blood Soul Sect, seduce my disciples, and quickly rise to power, is that it? I, the sect leader, will grant your wish."

He flipped his hand, and a blood-red jade slip appeared in his palm. He threw it in front of Su Yuan and said coldly:
"The jade slip contains the core inheritance of my Blood God Sect, the Blood Transformation Divine Blade. I give you three days to master it."

"If you can master it, I would even accept you as my personal disciple. If you cannot, you can become a menial disciple, which would also fulfill your wish to join the sect."

Hearing this, Mortis, who was standing nearby, said angrily:

"Master, you've gone too far! Why are you being so malicious in making things difficult for Su Yuan? He hasn't done anything wrong!"

Blood Soul True Monarch remained silent, his expression cold and stern.

Su Yuan unfolded the blood-red jade slip and began to read it carefully.

After glancing at it a few times, Su Yuan immediately understood the Blood Soul True Monarch's intention in using this top-tier demonic technique to test him.

The Blood Transformation Divine Blade is a blood-based divine power unique to the Blood God Cult. To cultivate it, one must kill someone and steal their essence and blood to refine the blade's energy, gradually imbuing each blade's energy with the power of blood transformation.

The entire cultivation process is extremely difficult, but more importantly, it is accompanied by moral pressure and incompatibility with orthodox cultivation methods.

In other words, if Su Yuan is indeed an undercover agent of a righteous force, then he would be exposed as soon as he started practicing this demonic art.

Either they couldn't bear to kill others, or their righteous power clashed with the Blood Transformation Divine Blade, causing them to explode and die.

Blood Soul True Lord is very clever.

After Su Yuan examined the jade slip for a while, Blood Soul True Monarch smiled knowingly and asked:
"Boy, are you confident you can master this supernatural power?"

Su Yuan slowly closed the jade slip, looked up and smiled:

"Reporting to the True Lord, there is no need to trouble you to wait three days; I can give you an answer now."

"And my answer was... The Blood Transformation Divine Blade is very simple. I only looked at it once and I had already mastered it."
