Fairy, don't try to mess with my filial piety

"We can't do that yet. We can just spend money to find guides to buy information, or look for some escort agencies that are familiar with the local area, just like what Fu Guanyin did in the past."

"Then I'll leave it to the Imperial Master to arrange. Thank you~"

The young female imperial teacher with purple hair and purple eyes just mentioned Fu Guanyin, and Chu Wuji immediately recalled Wardfa and the others. They were indeed a group of very capable escorts.

Chu Wuji asked curiously:

"National Master, have you been paying attention to the escort agency run by Fu Guanyin? Or are you simply aware of it but have been too lazy to pay attention?"

White Peacock, feeling a little tired from standing, sat sideways on the bird-beast transformed from the divine water bead, her legs spread out. A dry breeze swept through the sky, and her charming purple hair swayed with her dress, creating an elegant and sexy scene.

After a brief recollection, the white peacock said:

"Not that I'm always keeping an eye on her. Sometimes, Fu Guanyin's team runs away, and I lose track of her. I've even asked her escort agency to deliver a token of my loyalty and helped with her business twice."

It sounds like... you've been keeping an eye on him since he lost his whereabouts?

Xuan Yi said, "Why don't you take advantage of the situation to eliminate and annex them? If you take away the Holy Fire Pearl, your Divine Water Sect should be even more powerful now."

"I don't think her escort agency will be able to succeed. There's no need to worry about it. Just let her run into obstacles. Besides, the Holy Fire Pearl won't be of much use to me."

Even in the early days of the Water and Fire Sect, White Peacock had a greater affinity for the Divine Water Pearl. Getting the Holy Fire Pearl in advance would only distract her.

After all, the Holy Fire Bead is placed there. If you don't touch it, you will feel uneasy and think that you are wasting the opportunities around you.

Many times, having few choices is not scary. God is helping you eliminate options in disguise so that you can focus.

The most terrifying thing is to have too many bad choices. Not only will it distract you from worrying about the decision, but in the end, when you are exhausted after making the decision, you will find that it is terrible.

Chu Wuji recalled the conversation when he first brought Fu Guanyin to Sun Moon Country and asked:

"The Holy Fire Bead has no effect on you, so why did you persuade Fu Guanyin before, asking her to think it through and bring the bead to you?"

"It's symbolic. They're declaring the Divine Water Sect the legitimate successor of the Water and Fire Sect, and then absorbing all the talented people who sided with the Holy Fire Sect."

The former saint, Bai Kongque, has a very clear understanding of the influence of the Water and Fire Sect. It is the "white moonlight" in the eyes of most people in the Western Regions.

There must be some extremely talented independent cultivators who appear neutral on the surface, but in their hearts they side with the Holy Fire Sect and resist her Holy Water Sect.

If White Peacock obtained the Holy Fire Pearl in a peaceful manner and Fu Guanyin joined the Shenshui Sect, then the obstacles to the development of the Shenshui Sect would be completely eliminated.

The seeds spread by the Water and Fire Sect in the past, and the wise and independent cultivators cultivated imperceptibly, will gradually gather in the Divine Water Sect, which is equivalent to completely accepting the legacy of the Water and Fire Sect. They no longer have to follow the old principles, and everything will be done according to the new rules she established.

Chu Wuji admired Bai Kongque's strategy and planning. He himself didn't have such thoughts anyway.

He gave a thumbs-up to express his admiration, then poured cold water on him, saying:

"However, there are now so many demonic sects in the Western Regions, and their strength is far greater than that of the Divine Water Sect. If the Divine Water Sect grows any stronger, I'm afraid it will have to face these sects."

The white peacock looked into the distance, shrugged her fair shoulders, and her shawl almost slipped off. She did not deny:

"That's foreseeable, but it's a headache for the future. A thirsty person in the desert shouldn't worry about dying from drinking too much water."

Aunt Green Snake was idle, so she listened for a while and was puzzled:

"Hasn't the Demonic Sect been here for a long time? Why don't they attack the Divine Water Sect now? Why wait until you become stronger?"

White Peacock really didn't want to explain this kind of problem. She sighed sadly:

"The current Shenshui Sect is only the state religion of the Sun and Moon Nation. To put it bluntly, it is not strong enough and has not yet entered the eyes of the demonic sects. So there is no need to deal with it~"

From an internal perspective, the Shenshui Sect has long surpassed the foundation of the state religion and cannot be said to be weak. It has no problem expanding and conquering foreign countries.

The White Peacock stopped its expansion, probably because it planned to make a fortune quietly. It would keep a low profile first, as the tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind.

The Sky Fox Lady was half resting, half listening to the conversation. She did not show up, but said in the Yuanshen Cave:

The entire Western Region is dotted with demonic sects. It wouldn't be difficult for White Peacock to stand out on its own, but if it wanted a new faction to stand out, it would probably have to take a different approach.

Bai Sujin would never speak ill of others to their faces. In the Yuanshen Cave, she was less secretive:

"I think so too. Once the Divine Water Sect grows so strong that it can no longer be concealed, the evil cultivators will target it. I feel that in the end, Bai Kongque will inevitably make the same choice as Fu Guanyin."

Aunt Green Snake was confused. She was distracted from time to time and didn't know what they were talking about:

What did Fu Guanyin choose?

Bai Sujin was tired. Fortunately, Xiaoqing did not go to the private school of the human race to experience it. Otherwise, if she suddenly asked the private school teacher "Where were you at?", she would probably be very angry.

[Give up on expanding the organization, face reality, and choose to cultivate alone. The environment in the Western Region is such that it is difficult for an individual to change.]

The results of the two saints, Fu Guanyin and Bai Kongque, are probably the same.

The difference is that the former took over the mess left by their fathers and tried to revive the Holy Fire Sect, but struggled in the early stages and had to give up. The latter continued to grow until it was strong, then encountered an attack from all sides and collapsed midway.

Chu Wuji did not express his opinion. He suddenly thought of what Ning Xianzhi's mother said.

Those monks who are unwilling to be limited are likely to go astray, because there is no hope if they follow the rules.

As an elder of the Immortal Clan, Ning Xianzhi did not simply accuse the evil cultivators of being "innately evil" or "having evil intentions".

Rather, it means that as long as many "reluctances" remain, the so-called evil practitioners will always exist and it will be impossible to eradicate them.

It is inevitable that the Shenshui Sect will be targeted by the evil forces in the future.

I just don’t know how “reluctant” the white peacock will be in the future.

......

After walking for an unknown amount of time, the surrounding scenery had changed.

The white peacock served as a guide and reminded his companions:

"If we go any further, we'll enter the territory of Liangjin Kingdom. The monks have many eyes and ears. If we want to get intelligence, we have to stop in Jingjue Kingdom."

Chu Wuji had no objection and would definitely follow the arrangements of Bai Kongque, the local. He looked puzzledly at a large city five miles away and said:

"Master, that should be the capital of Jingjue Kingdom, right? Why don't we go there?"

"The Jingjue Kingdom has a strong tradition of sacrificial offerings. Outsiders are forbidden from entering the capital. Anyone who sees the Jingjue Queen's toes must gouge out their eyes and apologize. We can only buy intelligence in the surrounding small towns."

Chapter 450: Socialite Chu Wuji

The gathering place of the immortals is Kongtong Mountain. The magic weapon used for this surprise attack was provided by Kongtong Mountain. When they returned, they also returned to Kongtong Mountain and discussed the matter of the witch tomb here.

The number of great immortal monks present here is so large that it may take hundreds of years.

Regarding this great victory, the monks who used to be indifferent couldn't help but smile and couldn't hide their joy.

This is really because we had too little contact with the witch tomb before, and so many things happened one after another, and the immortals have been like headless flies, and we don’t know their true faces. It is really unacceptable!

The sword practitioners in Xiaoyao Valley were in a great mood. From time to time, they would use their sleeves to wipe the edges of their swords to calm their minds.

Their beloved swords are extremely sharp. As long as they get excited and cut their hands, they will naturally calm down.

"After searching for the Witch Tomb for so long, we finally have a direct encounter. A few days ago, my disciples in Xiaoyao Valley were so frustrated with their patrols, as they always returned empty-handed."

"It's the same for everyone. Everyone suspects we're heading in the wrong direction, patrolling the wrong area. Otherwise, why would we still be missing?"

Some time ago, the three immortal families outside Kunlun Ruins did arrange their disciples to go out intensively, but they basically gained nothing. Occasionally, they could bring back some rumors about the spirits of ancestors, which were considered clues.

After a long time, the disciples will inevitably feel frustrated, as if they are wasting their time practicing to do useless work.

The elders who arranged the tasks also felt bad because they were unable to give their disciples an explanation, as if they were ordering them around blindly.

Many elders could only go out with the team in person, which was considered a useless effort along with the disciples.

In this battle, the immortal cultivators attacked with extreme ferocity and severity, all of which were caused by their personal resentment.

After the excitement, the elders of each family led their disciples to review and assess the overall strength of the Wuzhong members.

Their expressions gradually became serious.

"This is really not easy. There are not many weak members of the Wuzhong. We have only wiped out a part of them this time. The rest are hidden dangers."

"When the Four Directions Sky Map was unfolding its barrier, I sensed the approach of several powerful auras. They were all members of the Witch Tomb. They took one look and ran away!"

"It's not that I want to destroy my own prestige. Even for those of us who are elders, if we fight alone against the beasts of the Wuzhong Tomb, we will probably get into trouble!"

There are also some arrogant people among the immortal cultivators, especially the disciples. They are not happy to hear such remarks that will boost the morale of the enemy, but they have no chance to speak.

The strength of the Wuzhong members varies greatly. Just looking at the group that was killed not long ago, there was a clear gap between the strong and the weak. If we meet less powerful Wuzhong members outside, how come we can't beat them?

However, they also admitted that the reason why this encirclement and suppression went so smoothly was largely due to the overwhelming number of personnel...

The few extremely powerful members of the Wuzhong group were unable to display their full strength and were directly overwhelmed by the dense magical powers.

Kunlun Jade Girl is not familiar with everyone, so she can say things that are inappropriate without any scruples, and she doesn't have to worry about other people's expressions:

"I think we should all express our own opinions and discuss the Wuzhong faction itself. Unfortunately, no one knows much about it.

We successfully wiped out a large number of Wuzhong members, but we didn't take any prisoners to torture. Alas!

Otherwise, why do people say that Kunlunxu is not sociable?

You'll make everyone's excitement seem superficial...

As the Jade Maiden finished speaking, the audience seated with the immortal masters fell silent, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.

The elders fell silent. Those with beards stroked theirs to ease the awkwardness, while those without beards drank their tea as if nothing had happened.

Ning Xianzhi withdrew her attention from Chu Wuji. She opened her eyes, looked at her friend next to her, and asked what they had just talked about.

Taoist Jiuwu showed a guilty expression, shook the new wine jar in his hand, and laughed:

"I don't know either. I was just looking for wine in Kongtong Mountain!"

Ning Xianzhi knew this was the case. Fortunately, she had just heard what the Jade Girl said, otherwise the two of them would have been "absent-minded in class".

"I have some information about the Witch's Tomb, and I want to share it with you..."

Everyone's eyes were focused on Ning Xianzhi. The elders of the Shenxiao Sect were wondering why Elder Ning had some inside information but didn't share it with his family until now.

Soon, everyone learned from Ning Xianzhi about the internal strife and fighting in Wuzhong.

Tsk amazed.

"To murder their colleagues like this is simply a large-scale demonic sect."

"Those who didn't sacrifice themselves to prevent the catastrophe have now become a great threat. They might act recklessly, and the future will be turbulent!"

"By the way, how did Elder Ning Xianzhi know all this? It seems there were no survivors at the time, right?"

At that time, several elders of the immortal family were ready to go down and capture the two captives, but unfortunately they failed. Those members of the Wuzhong were too powerful. They could continue to fight even when they were seriously injured. The more they fought, the more fierce they became and they would not stop until they died!

Ning Xianzhi explained:

"Wu Ji just told me this and asked me to pass it on to all the teachers and seniors."

Among the disciples and cultivators who accompanied him to the battle, only a few knew Chu Wuji, while most of them did not know him. They were wondering who the elder was and why they had never heard of his name.

But when it comes to the elder level, almost everyone knows this guy!

Gu Wangshu, the senior sister of Kongtong Mountain, simply said to Chu Wuji:

"This time, it may seem like Kongtong Mountain made the greatest contribution, but in fact, it was Young Master Chu who was the primary contributor. If he hadn't risked his life to personally lure over so many members of the Wuzhong Clan, our strength would have been useless."

Xianhe Tingqin was the elder of almost all the monks present. She praised:

"Last time we met, I simply reminded Little Qilin that there was a communication pattern on the bone knife. I never thought he would bring about such great progress later on!"

Kunlun Jade Girl said regretfully:

"Mr. Chu, are you just here to deliver a message? It seems he won't be here today. If I had known he was at the Hehuan Sect's Holy Land, I should have looked for him nearby."

Others understood something. They were curious about why Kunlunxu came here, but then they thought that Kunlunxu's behavior was strange, and it was possible that he suddenly came up with this idea. Why did he need a reason?

Now it seems that the Kunlun Jade Girl came for Chu Wuji's sake!

After comparing with the various immortal sects, they were surprised to find that Chu Wuji had such a good relationship with all the immortal sects, even Kunlun Ruins was no exception!

Even though the immortal elders present had been active for hundreds of years, they were only acquaintances who could call each other by name, but their friendship was not really deep.

How can a young person be so popular nowadays?!

......

Chu Wuji didn't know the situation on the immortal side. He stayed in a small town in Jingjue Kingdom and waited for the next day's morning market.

When they arrived, it was already dusk. There was not even a single restaurant open in the town; all were closed.

If they hadn't cast a little magic, they would have nowhere to stay until now.

Aunt Green Snake was always looking for trouble. She had heard that the laws of Jingjue Kingdom were strict, and she wanted to take advantage of her situation to challenge the authority.
