Miss Demon Lord will never surrender to the Saint

I have money, and lots of it!

With the help of the ambush prepared by the Nan family, Qian Lin and her friends' assets increased dramatically, and their originally tight days suddenly became more affluent.

Venerable Huanyue was thinking about whether or not to grab a piece of land and set up a branch of Hehuan Valley in the southern border. Anyway, she and the chief elder didn't get along well, and she wouldn't get a good reception if she returned to the Hehuan Valley headquarters in the northern border. It would be better for her to hide in the southern border.

But this was just an immature idea of ​​hers, and she just thought about it and let it go.

"The things are not in the hands of those people over there. It seems that I have to go to the Fire Lotus Sect..."

There is good news, and naturally there is bad news. Qian Lin searched through the storage bags of the young master and the two masters of the Fire Lotus Sect, but did not find the stolen key. It is estimated that they left it in the Fire Lotus Sect.

So the next step is to go to the Fire Lotus Gate to ask for the key.

"Your Majesty, there are some cultivators fleeing towards us from behind, and our people are chasing them. Should we..." A body-tempering realm cultivator from the Hehuan Valley appeared beside Venerable Huanyue and asked in a low voice.

After the Fire Lotus Sect's sneak attack failed and all the top leaders were captured, the Fire Lotus Sect monks who remained at the Nan family's side were in complete chaos. Some wanted to rush to the Nan family to rescue the young master, but most of them just wanted to escape quickly.

The young master brought so many experts to launch a surprise attack on the Nan family, and now the entire army has been wiped out. Is he still expecting the small fish and shrimps who stayed behind in their hometown to turn the situation around?

Ninety-nine percent of the Fire Lotus Sect monks who were left in the base were in the Mind Cultivation and Essence Training stages, with only a handful in the Body Tempering stage, and none of them had strong combat power.

The strong ones all followed the young master to die.

So when Qian Handan came over with the aggressive Nan family cultivators, the cultivators of the Fire Lotus Sect did not even put up a resistance and immediately fled in all directions.

Qian Handan also acted completely according to Qian Lin's instructions. Instead of killing them all, she stayed far behind these fleeing monks, giving them a sense of crisis that was enough to drive them crazy.

It would be a piece of cake for a master to catch up and wipe out these defeated soldiers, but Qian Handan did not do so because these people could still be of great use.

While escaping, several elite monks from the Hehuan Valley had already sneaked into the defeated army of the Huolian Sect monks. They were proficient in the art of disguise and had identification documents seized from the attackers. These low-level Huolian Sect monks could not recognize them at all.

They will become a sharp knife, stabbing fiercely into the heart of the Fire Lotus Sect.

"No need, just pretend, scare them a little and make them run away faster." Venerable Huanyue shook her head. She already knew Qian Lin's plan, so of course she had to cooperate with him now.

As she spoke, her gaze turned into the distance. The old man from the Fire Lotus Sect was still wandering nearby. It seemed that he was still determined to break through her defense.

It’s a pity that the current Venerable Huanyue is no longer the former Venerable Huanyue. She is now fearless!

Wherever that old man ran, Venerable Huanyue would block him. He didn't attack directly, but blocked the opponent's way forward. His thoughts were obvious. You want to get through? Then defeat me first!

The Venerable of Fire Lotus Sect could not defeat Venerable Huanyue, and could only continue to compete with Venerable Huanyue in wits and courage here.

The Venerables all cherish their lives. What Venerable Huanyue is doing now is not something that will cost him his life. The Venerables of the Fire Lotus Sect naturally will not think of fighting to the death with Venerable Huanyue.

"He's coming over. I'll go fight him and you guys go and act out the show."

Perhaps sensing something, the Fire Lotus Sect's Venerable suddenly rushed over here. Venerable Huanyue immediately dropped his men and went to meet him fearlessly.

She could probably guess what the other party wanted to do. He must want to save his disciples.

Although Venerable Huanyue was about to let these people go, she still had to play the role of the play. She had to fight with this old man for a few more moves before she could let those defeated soldiers go naturally.

boom! boom! boom!

The two venerables used all their strength as soon as they fought. The two extremely powerful auras collided fiercely in the sky. The aftermath of the attack could directly tear apart a master monk of average strength.

The aftermath of the attacks fell from the sky, adding some obstacles to the escape of the Fire Lotus Sect monks. Some unlucky guys were even directly killed by the aftermath.

But the aftermath can kill people, but it can also save people. These aftermaths do not care whether the people below are enemies or friends. The Fire Lotus Sect monks want to escape, so naturally they dare to shuttle through this dangerous place regardless of the consequences.

But the monks from Hehuan Valley who came to chase and kill the encircled monks did not have such courage. Besides, the order they received was not to kill them all. Now seeing that the monks from Huolian Sect had already rushed into the influence range of the fight between the Venerables, they stopped chasing them.

The Fire Lotus Sect's Venerable looked down and saw that his sect's disciples were already some distance away from the pursuers. He immediately slapped out with his palm, pushing Venerable Huanyue back two steps.

"Fellow Daoist, we will meet again!" After saying this, he did not care about any response from Venerable Huanyue, and simply waved his sleeves, picked up the Fire Lotus Sect monks who were dizzy from the aftermath, and turned into a red light and flew away.

He could not defeat Venerable Huanyue, but he wanted to take his people away, and Venerable Huanyue could not stop him.

"You run really fast." Venerable Huanyue snorted lightly, waved his sleeves, and led his men to closely catch up with the escaping red light.

She would not give the Fire Lotus Sect time to calm down and rest. Qian Lin eliminated so many of the Fire Lotus Sect's backbone forces at once. The Fire Lotus Sect was absolutely weak now. If she didn't take this opportunity to defeat them, would she have to wait for them to recover?

The saying "Don't chase a desperate enemy" is not suitable for this moment. Venerable Huanyue wants to give the fallen enemy a beating now!

The two venerables transformed into streams of light, chasing and fleeing across the land of the Southern Territory, alarming countless Southern Territory sects during the process.

It's rare that such an exciting thing happened, and these are two venerables!

After running for a day and a night, the Fire Lotus Sect's venerable finally ran back to his old nest, a lotus-shaped building standing on a volcano.

As he fled into the mountain gate in a panic, a red protective formation immediately rose up, blocking the pursuing Venerable Huanyue outside the formation.

Venerable Huanyue was also not at all vague. He immediately summoned a bright moon to smash heavily onto the sect protection formation, apparently intending to storm the Fire Lotus Sect.

But the Fire Lotus Sect is worthy of being a major sect with a long history in the Southern Territory. The great formation steadily took on the bright moon that was thrown down by Venerable Huanyue, and also made Venerable Huanyue realize that he might not be able to do anything about this great formation for a while.

So she was not in a hurry, and asked the monks from the Hehuan Valley she brought with her to find a habitable place nearby to build a temporary base, and waited quietly for Qian Lin and the others to arrive.

The speed at which the Venerable travels is totally incomparable to that of the Grandmaster. For Venerable Huanyue, a journey that takes one day and one night would probably take Qian Lin several days.

In addition, Qian Lin had to bring a group of people with him. Venerable Huanyue estimated that it would be good if Qian Lin could arrive within ten days.

In this case, she might as well torture the Fire Lotus Sect's protective formation every day to consume its durability. The chaos caused by each attack could also create opportunities for the undercover agents who had infiltrated the Fire Lotus Sect.

……

"Alas, ancestor, what should we do? Are we just going to watch this woman show off in front of us?" The leader of the Fire Lotus Sect was a middle-aged man with a face full of flesh. The condensed aura of the late Grandmaster realm showed that he was no mere show-off.

But he was no longer a show-off. Now facing the venerable man outside, he was almost worried to death.

There are many sects in the Southern Territory. The Fire Lotus Sect, which originally had three masters and an old ancestor as its trump card, was one of the most powerful sects in the Southern Territory. But now two of the three venerables are gone, and the old ancestor cannot defeat the other side's venerable.

The Fire Lotus Sect seemed to be in a dead end all of a sudden.

Ask for help from other good sects? Ha, those 'good friends' would be so happy to hear the news that the Fire Lotus Sect was in trouble!

Expecting them to come and help the Huo Lian Sect survive the crisis of extinction is probably wishful thinking.

"We can only hold on. We still don't know where the enemy comes from and what their purpose is. Only after we figure these things out can we come up with a solution." The old ancestor stroked his white beard, with a hint of fatigue in his eyes.

He was simply too old and not as strong as young people. The many battles in recent days had made him feel overwhelmed.

If I were still young, how could that venerable man who used strange spiritual energy be my opponent?

"I suspect that the other party might be a demon cultivator. The disciples I brought back all said that the power of the demon seems to have infiltrated recently, and they seem to be very interested in this matter. And that woman is not the southern cultivator I know. I'm afraid she is really a demon from the north."

"But what do we have here that is worthy of the Demonic Path's attention?" The Sect Master sighed again. Apart from some real lunatics, the Demonic Path actually also follows the instinct of seeking profit and avoiding harm. And directly confronting their Fire Lotus Sect is not a cost-effective deal in any way.

Unless... the Nan family gave Mo Dao a reason that he couldn't refuse.

No, no, the people of the Nan family are all stubborn. The current head of the family is even cooperating with the Huolian Sect. He would never sell out the secrets of the Nan family to others!

If you cooperate with the Fire Lotus Sect, at least your life is guaranteed, but if you cooperate with the Demon Sect, that would be like seeking the skin of a tiger, especially one that has eaten humans and is notorious for its ferociousness. Everyone knows what to choose.

"Could it be that the Demonic Path knew something? That's impossible. This secret is clearly known only to us..."

Just when the leader of the Fire Lotus Sect was in trouble, a disciple of the Fire Lotus Sect ran into the hall quickly and shouted, "Master, ancestor, there is someone outside the formation who wants to see us and wants to negotiate terms with us!"

Negotiate terms?

The sect leader and the ancestor looked at each other and saw a hint of relief in each other's eyes. It would be good to negotiate terms, but they were afraid that the other party would not be willing to negotiate terms.

Just a quarter of an hour later, a cultivator from the Hehuan Valley who was in the state of cultivating his mind followed the inner sect disciple of the Fire Lotus Sect into the main hall and saluted the two big men of the Fire Lotus Sect in a neither humble nor arrogant manner.

After the ceremony, he took out a finely crafted round plate from his sleeve and stuffed a spiritual stone into it.

As the spirit stone gradually dimmed, an illusory figure was projected above the disc, and then a slightly distorted voice came out from the disc.

"Hey, can you hear me?"

The sect leader and the ancestor were silent.

The illusory figure cast his gaze towards the two people who seemed to be petrified, and blinked in confusion.

"Strange, is there something wrong with this little thing? Hey you, come over here and take a look, it seems to be broken."

The shadow waved to the side, and another blurry figure appeared on the disc. He seemed to be holding something in his hand. After fiddling with the disc for a few times, he muttered quietly: "There's nothing wrong, it's just that the signal is a little bit bad... Hey, people over there, can you shut down your sect protection formation? This formation is interfering with the signal too much."

Close the sect protection formation? Great, so the trap is here! The sect leader was immediately filled with anger. Do these people think he is a fool?

Once the sect protection formation is broken, how can we stop the opponent's master?

"No, what exactly do you want to do? Why don't you speak frankly?" But the current situation really doesn't allow the sect leader to lose his temper. He could only suppress his anger and asked in a cold voice.

He didn't believe that these people surrounded the Fire Lotus Gate just for fun. They must have a purpose.

The Huo Lian Sect has never offended the other party, so there may still be a chance for this matter to be resolved peacefully.

"I want all the treasures and spiritual stones from your Fire Lotus Sect."

"My fellow Taoist, you can't joke like that." Upon hearing this, the sect leader's expression froze. Did he look so gullible?

If the Fire Lotus Sect agreed to such conditions, all its treasures and spirit stones would be disbanded in the next moment!

Those things are the foundation of the Fire Lotus Sect. Without these things, the sect leader has no doubt that the disciples within the sect will immediately defect to other sects.

Other sects were also happy to accept these disciples who escaped from the Fire Lotus Sect.

"Fifty percent. I can only give you fifty percent at most. If it's more, then let's get ready and fight with real weapons!"

323. Sincerity

When Qian Lin led a large combined force from the Hehuan Valley and the Nan family to the gate of the Huolian Sect, Venerable Huanyue was still bargaining with the Huolian Sect. By now, both sides had negotiated the price to 70%.

"Oh, they are really willing to give it up." After listening to her good sister's story about the past few days, Qian Lin immediately showed a money-grubbing expression, "If my goal was not this, I would probably really accept it."

70% of the resources of a major sect in the southern border, this is enough to make Qian Lin excited.

With so many resources, she can simply walk around the southern border with ease.

Unfortunately, what she wanted most were not these material things.

Of course, the more spirit stones you have, the better, but when the number reaches a certain level, it is just a number. Coincidentally, for Qian Lin, spirit stones are just a number.

She usually uses a lot of resources for her daily cultivation, but she is the lord of three cities in the northern border. With the resources supplied by the three cities and the Qian family, Qian Lin will not live a tight life in this regard.

Although she had lost contact with the Nan Family and Yao Chi during these three years, she turned a disaster into a blessing by being listed as a big boss, Venerable Huanyue, and she did not lose out on cultivation resources.

Therefore, for Qian Lin now, the resources of the Fire Lotus Sect are not that important.

"Their sincerity is quite sufficient. They will do everything they can to save the sect." Venerable Huanyue nodded. After the negotiations over the past few days, she also figured out the bottom line of the Fire Lotus Sect, which is that they are willing to give anything as long as the Fire Lotus Sect can survive.

"Then what about the key that was snatched from the Nan family? This thing definitely has nothing to do with the survival of the Fire Lotus Sect, right?" Qian Lin's eyes rolled and he hammered his palm.

It is true that Hehuan Valley has surrounded Huolian Sect now, but it is difficult to break through the sect protection formation.

The monks from Hehuan Valley who had infiltrated the Fire Lotus Sect could only transmit some insignificant information, which was of no help in breaking through the protective formation of the sect.

Moreover, the impact of breaking the formation and slaughtering the sect is really too bad. If this matter were to spread, the major sects in the southern border would probably unite as one and come together with the righteous holy places in Zhongzhou to strangle the evil sect.

Qian Lin still wants to live a peaceful life and doesn't want to be chased and hide from others like in his previous life.

"Let's solve it peacefully if we can. Send someone to tell the people of the Fire Lotus Sect that we are treating their young sect leader and two grandmasters well. As long as they know what's good for them, we don't have to destroy them."

……

"Ancestor, do you think these evil ways are trustworthy?" The leader of the Fire Lotus Sect touched his chin, and his trembling hands showed his inner unrest.

There is new news coming from the Demonic Path. As long as the Fire Lotus Sect is sensible and pays a compensation that satisfies the Demonic Path, the Demonic Path will not only retreat immediately but will also return all the Fire Lotus Sect captives.

Also sent over was a long list of names containing the names of the Fire Lotus Sect captives currently in the hands of the Demonic Path.

At the very beginning were the sect leader’s biological son and the other two masters of the Fire Lotus Sect.

In addition to the two grandmasters, there are dozens of disciples in the Body Tempering Realm. These are the backbone of the Fire Lotus Sect. As long as they can come back, the Fire Lotus Sect will still be the leading sect in the Southern Territory!

"It should be credible. They probably don't dare to be too harsh on us, the Fire Lotus Sect. If we are destroyed by them, the Holy Land of Righteousness will definitely use all its strength to strangle them." The old ancestor pondered for a long time and answered softly.

If it was other sects of the Nan family who put forward the conditions, the ancestor would probably wonder if there was some conspiracy behind it. However, when it was the demons who put forward the conditions, he found it somewhat credible.

In today's world, the evil ways are suppressed by the righteous ways. After several major events in recent years, the evil ways have gone from being unable to win to being completely unable to win.

In just a few short years, Venerable Blood Butterfly of the Blood Sea Sect died, Venerable Youtong of the Xuanyin Sect disappeared, and the Hehuan Valley was the worst hit, as its sect leader was gone.

On the other hand, geniuses are emerging one after another on the right side, and the general trend of the world is clearly shifting towards the right direction.

In this environment, even if the demons wanted to cause trouble, they would not dare to make too much noise.

"If it can help to avoid disaster by spending money, it can be considered a solution..."

The ancestor was already very tempted. If he could use some spirit stones and resources to exchange back the disciples who fell into the hands of Hehuan Valley and make Hehuan Valley withdraw its troops, that would really be a great thing.

The Fire Lotus Sect has already been defeated, and what they need to do now is to minimize the losses.
