Infiltrating the righteous path? Just another place to be a sycophant.

Both sides froze at that moment.

Why are there people here?

Why did this person suddenly start moving?

Shouldn't I be a little more polite?

So Lu An raised his hand, ready to say hello.

The other person, just like him, raised their hand, ready to greet him.

In a place like this, someone with unfathomable strength must be some kind of master, right?

So both sides raised their hands and waved.

"Hello?"

"Hello?"

Chapter 41 Fellow Daoist, you may join my sect!

At this moment, the people on both sides felt as if they had seen each other in the middle of nowhere, both wary and afraid, but also very curious.

They are wary of the other person, afraid of them, yet extremely curious about them.

Lu An never expected that Li Nayue, who seemed to have made a lot of grand pronouncements, would fight that dragon to the death.

In the end, he only managed to block the dragon's breath, and then, with the increased strength from the Heavenly Demon Annihilation Formation, he betrayed his disciples and escaped.

What a shameless person! Lu An had to admit that only a shameless person could be the sixth in line.

Compared to Li Nayue, his level of respect for the elders was ultimately a bit lacking.

It's true what they say, "It's better to sacrifice your fellow Daoists than yourself." This woman is truly ruthless.

The reason I've been single for so many years has been found: if I were her Daoist partner, I'd probably be sold off like this too, right?

So Lu An watched helplessly as countless people were melted into ashes by the dragon breath spewed out by the Ancient Thunder Dragon. Some of the stronger individuals managed to escape using some unknown method.

I'm also within the range of the Ancient Thunder Dragon's breath attack, so I guess I'm going to lose this one too.

In this situation, I should consider the shipment to have been successfully delivered, right?

It seems that places like the underworld and hell are just like this.

These people must have come to pick up their messengers from the underworld, right?

What a waste of his promising future as a demonic master, he died before even getting started!

"You've arrived?" Lu An asked casually, giving the impression that he had already taken life and death in stride.

The group was taken aback; clearly, Lu An's question had stumped them.

Since it's already been sent, let's face death with equanimity.

Also, shouldn't the ones coming to pick him up be Ox-Head and Horse-Face? Why do these people look like cosplayers?

Could it be that Ox-Head is actually Ox-Horned Woman, and Horse-Face is a beautiful horse-woman?

Interesting, so interesting!

But these people don't seem like it either.

"May I ask who you are and why you are here?" the leading woman asked respectfully, bowing with her hands clasped.

"Don't you know why I'm here?" Lu An's eyes were full of indifference. "I already know what you're here for. Make your move."

Since it's going to be sent sooner or later anyway, and it's already dead, why bother caring so much?

Isn't it just death?

See through things, and let go!

The others were secretly alarmed after hearing what Lu An said.

Did that reveal their purpose? They didn't say anything or reveal their identities!

The group remained silent, unable to discern Lu An's true intentions.

Lu An was also puzzled. What were these guys doing? Shouldn't they be taking him to the Bridge of Helplessness, drinking Meng Po's soup, and preparing for his next life?

Do I have to get up myself?

So Lu An got up, intending to go with them on his own initiative, mainly to be obedient.

"Fellow Daoist, please wait a moment." The leading female cultivator cupped her hands and said, "Fellow Daoist possesses an extraordinary bearing, and one must also be exceptionally strong. May I ask where your master is and who he is?"

"Are you going to interrogate me? I am a member of the Heavenly Demon Sect," Lu An replied sincerely.

They're all dead, why bother hiding them?

Everyone was instantly startled.

This person is actually a remnant of the Heavenly Demon Sect!?

So the group placed their hands on their weapons, preparing for battle.

Someone whose strength is unfathomable must be some kind of super demon, right?

I've heard that some old masters of the demonic path, despite their great age, look incredibly young and youthful. Could these be the old masters?

If that's the case, then we're doomed.

Trouble is brewing, it's really brewing.

Lu An touched himself and felt something was wrong.

If I am dead, then why am I still breathing, and why can I still feel the energy and strength within my body?

Still stuck at the fourth level of the Golden Core stage? Does it not reset even after death?

I'm giving this world's underworld a bad review; I won't come back next time.

Lu An circulated his cultivation technique, and then his righteous energy surged forth instantly.

Oh no! He learned the Righteous Qi Gong and can generate Righteous Qi just by casually circulating his energy. Who would believe him if he said he was a member of the Heavenly Demon Sect?

"Fellow Daoist, we are members of the Righteous Path Alliance, not the Demonic Path!" The leading woman replied with a cupped hand. "Fellow Daoist, I know you are only saying you are from the Heavenly Demon Sect to protect yourself!"

"Huh...?" Lu An was a little confused. What was this beautiful woman talking about?

What about self-preservation? What about the righteous alliance...?

Wait, the Righteous Alliance!?

Lu An seemed to realize something, and his heart started pounding.

Perhaps I didn't die at all, but just survived by sheer luck.

And what was next to it wasn't hell, but a valley swept by the dragon's breath.

Although it looks like hell, this is the place where I used to hide.

Holy crap, how did I survive?!

"Fellow Daoist, don't panic. Although this is near the Heavenly Demon Sect, we are from the Righteous Path Alliance and are here to investigate!" The burly man patted his strong chest muscles, as if to say, "You're safe now! We'll protect you!"

"Such a powerful and righteous aura! May I ask where this fellow Daoist is from?" the woman in red asked curiously.

Such a powerful and righteous spirit should not belong to an unknown person.

Cultivation can be cultivated, and strength can be trained, but this noble spirit of righteousness is not something that everyone can possess.

When heaven and earth were first separated, they were divided into two energies: pure and turbid. The pure energy is the righteous energy, and when this righteous energy reaches a certain concentration, it turns golden-white.

A layer of golden-white light was now shimmering around Lu An.

They're obviously righteous people! What Heavenly Demon Sect? That's just an excuse!

Lu An scratched his head, unsure how to answer.

Claiming to be a disciple of the Heavenly Demon Sect? Pure and untainted by the mud? A unique flower of the Heavenly Demon Sect?

He's really a weirdo. While others are cultivating how to kill and demonic energy, he's cultivating how to show off and how to create righteous energy.

They don't look like members of the Heavenly Demon Sect at all now, let alone claiming to be true disciples. Who would believe that?

"I am... a rogue cultivator..." Lu An hesitated for a long time before finally speaking with a forced smile.

"A rogue cultivator? Does that mean you have no sect or affiliation?" The woman in red's eyes lit up instantly, as if she had discovered some treasure.

The woman in gold and white standing to the side sensed something was amiss.

Is this guy about to start?!

"I wonder if you, fellow Daoist, would be interested in visiting my Taiqing Holy Sect? I am their Supreme Elder!"

The others immediately understood what was going on.

Good grief, they haven't even figured out the person's background, and they're already poaching talent!

Is the Taiqing Holy Sect so short of people that it has to recruit just anyone?

“Hong Xuanyun, you haven’t even figured out his background yet, and you’re already…” The woman in gold tried to persuade her, but the woman in red waved her hand, indicating that she should not say anything more.

"We'll figure things out once we've recruited them!" Hong Xuanyun said, then scurried over to Lu An. "Fellow Daoist, please consider it! My Taiqing Holy Sect is one of the most outstanding partners of the Righteous Path Alliance!"

After saying that, Hong Xuanyun started to flirt with Lu An, especially with her bottomless abyss of breasts...

It looks not only very full, but also very unfathomable.

I haven't even become an undercover agent yet, and I'm already being tested like this?

These upright people use this to test their cadres!

vulgar!

Lu An suppressed the urge to continue watching and shook his head: "Fellow Daoist, I am not that kind of person. Please have some self-respect."

His eyes rolled involuntarily a couple of times, and he glanced at it a few more times.

Not bad, she's comparable to her cross-dressing master.

"Fellow Daoist, why not join my Zhen Tian Holy Sect? We are a very loving sect, and you can get the best resources there!" The burly man flexed his muscles and said, "Inside, we can freely sweat it out and gain friendship and passion among men!"

Lu An glanced at the burly man with a look of disdain.

He could tell just by listening to the background that there were a lot of gay people there, and that it would definitely be very gay-ish, so he wasn't going.

But something seems off. How did I suddenly get recruited? The plot twist was a bit too fast.

"Fellow Daoist, those kinds of places are no fun. My Taiqing Holy Sect has a rich heritage, and most importantly, we have some beautiful female elders and disciples!"

Hmph, without attractive members of the opposite sex, who the hell would cultivate immortality? An idiot is an idiot, trying to attract people with male friendships, what rubbish!

Recruiting people is so difficult these days, let alone recruiting such a mysterious, powerful, and righteous rogue cultivator. If we don't recruit him quickly, he'll be recruited by someone else!

Lu An glanced at Hong Xuanyun and nodded silently in his heart.

This woman has captured my heart...

Chapter 42 Trying to make empty promises? Impossible!

Hong Xuanyun felt a surge of pride as she watched Lu An nod at her, his attention focused on her.

It looks like we're about to succeed. We really need to strike first!

“Fellow Daoist, you may also consider our Yuantian Holy Sect. We are the number one sect of the righteous path! Our name is known throughout the world and unparalleled throughout history!” the woman in gold and white said very politely.

Everyone else is trying to recruit him, so it seems like I'm missing out if I don't.

This fellow Daoist looks very strong! It would be a loss not to recruit him!

Lu An turned his head, his eyes lighting up.

Yuan Tian Sheng Zong!? That's the sect my master sent me to infiltrate!?

Although it's unclear how she, as the sect leader of the Heavenly Demon Sect, obtained that letter of recommendation for entry, the name of the Guangyuan Heavenly Saint Sect sounds very prestigious.

Also, other righteous sects all have four characters, and they often add "Holy Sect" to their names. Why is my sect just called Heavenly Demon Sect?

It should be at least four words; that sounds a bit pretentious.

Their prestige has dropped. No wonder they're being suppressed by the Righteous Alliance and are hiding behind Yunsha Mountain.
