Starting as a Son-in-law to Establish an immortal Family

Chapter 2575: Chapter 838: Bountiful Gains, The Shock of the Five Venoms Sect Hierarch and Heavenly Corpse Sect Master (1W1)_4

”Hmm.”

Lu Changsheng nodded, continuing to wait for Ayoudo and the Heavenly Corpse Sect Master’s arrival.

...

At this moment, Ayoudo and the Heavenly Corpse Sect Master were heading towards the Yiming Ghost Sect.

She was filled with confusion.

Unexpectedly, she had just entered the Heavenly Corpse Sect, barely finishing a cup of tea, when Lu Changsheng sent a message, stating that the matter was resolved.

This left her a bit puzzled.

No matter how astounding Lu Changsheng’s strength, to breach the Yiming Ghost Sect and kill Ming Sha True Monarch, it would take three to five days, wouldn’t it?

After all, the operation of a Fourth-tier Forbidden Array would require at least three to five Nascent Soul True Lords to break through.

In her view, even with Lu Changsheng’s Fourth-stage Mid-stage Body Refining and the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng, such a Fourth Rank Demon King, along with a monkey that restrains ghost kings, it would still take three to five days to break through the Yiming Ghost Sect’s Mountain Protection Array.

The only possibility was that the latter used some means to lure Ming Sha True Monarch out and then kill him.

But even so, Ming Sha True Monarch could escape back to the Yiming Ghost Sect through his Nascent Soul and rely on the array for a few days to wait for reinforcements, right?

As for completely annihilating Ming Sha True Monarch outside the Yiming Ghost Sect’s gate, she didn’t dare imagine it.

It seemed too incredible to her.

Not just her.

The Heavenly Corpse Sect Master beside her was also filled with doubts.

He didn’t know why the Five Poisons Cult Leader suddenly visited, and then suddenly summoned him to the Yiming Ghost Sect.

Although he felt something was off with the Ayoudo before him, they had been dealing with each other for hundreds of years and the two sects had an alliance, he still had a certain trust in Ayoudo.

Time passed little by little, as the two gradually approached the Yiming Ghost Sect’s territory.

At that moment, the Heavenly Corpse Sect Master’s figure suddenly froze, his pupils dark as ink, gazing in the direction of the Yiming Ghost Sect.

He sensed a surge of Demon Evil Qi.

Demon Qi soared to the sky, spreading for thousands of miles.

This was the sign of a Fourth Rank Demon King!

A Fourth Rank Transformed Demon King was in the Yiming Ghost Sect!?

”Cult Leader, why have you brought me to the Yiming Ghost Sect!”

The Heavenly Corpse Sect Master’s face was pale as if dead, devoid of any vitality or color, and he spoke out.

”Fellow Daoist Yan, you’ll know once we arrive.”

Ayoudo sensed that the Demonic Evil Qi belonged to the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng.

But she wasn’t sure about the current situation in the Yiming Ghost Sect.

”At this moment, a surge of Fourth Rank Demon Evil Qi is winding around the Yiming Ghost Sect, dispersing the ghostly Qi. Something is obviously wrong.”

The Heavenly Corpse Sect Master had already realized something was off, the strange runes on his black robe flowing as he coldly said, ”The Cult Leader suddenly summoned me here, shouldn’t you explain the situation clearly?”

Ayoudo remained silent, not knowing how to explain.

After all, she didn’t know about the current situation in the Yiming Ghost Sect.

But if she didn’t explain, the Heavenly Corpse Sect Master would obviously turn around and leave.

Although she practiced the ”Myriad Calamities Poison Spirit Secret Scripture,” it would be difficult to keep the Heavenly Corpse Sect Master.

Besides, among the Jin Kingdom’s Three Great Demon Sects, in addition to the age-old alliance, she had also signed a cooperation and mutual protection pact with the Heavenly Corpse Sect Master, and wouldn’t easily resort to violence.

”I bear no malice towards Fellow Daoist.”

Ayoudo said as such.

Her master intends to unify the Jin Kingdom, which is a major trend that she cannot interfere with.

If the Heavenly Corpse Sect Master chooses to submit, he might still have a path to survival.

If not, he might face the same fate as the Yiming Ghost Sect.

Although she stands to gain, she is keenly aware that the Demonic Seven Sects’ Great Tribulation has long been brewing, with hidden currents surging below.

Though she has sided with the Immortal Lotus Sect, and now has Lu Changsheng on her side, he may not fully consider her.

In such circumstances, she must also make some preparations to stabilize the Jin Kingdom.

Therefore, she still wishes to maintain the ally relationship with the Heavenly Corpse Sect.

”Since this Sect has come here with the Cult Leader, I naturally trust the Cult Leader.”

The Heavenly Corpse Sect Master’s face was stiff, his tone a little cold as he said, ”But without an explanation, how can this Sect recklessly proceed?”

Just as he finished speaking, he sensed spatial ripples ahead.

”Not good!”

The Heavenly Corpse Sect Master was extremely vigilant, his complexion flowing with a bluish-black sheen as a grayish-black Magic Pearl filled with Corpse Evil Qi shot out from his Heavenly Spirit Cover.

It was his Lifebound Spiritual Treasure—the Heavenly Corpse Bead!

”Fellow Daoist of the Heavenly Corpse, long time no see.”

A gentle voice came.

But a figure clad in a Mysterious Robe, holding a Five-Colored Banner appeared through a breach in the void.

”Yangming True Master!?”

The Heavenly Corpse Sect Master saw through the Five-colored Radiance, recognizing the person’s appearance, and was suddenly shocked.

He naturally knew Yangming True Master and remembered him well.

Back during Jiang Country’s expansion wars, he, invited by Liang Country, went to attack alongside the Five Poisons Cult Leader and Heavenly Fiend True Monarch.

Although they fell into Xuanjian True Monarch’s ambush.

Had it not been for Yangming True Master’s intervention, the three wouldn’t have ended up so miserably and disgracefully.

Especially since he had been held back by Yangming True Master, not only did his Lifebound Corpse King fall into the hands of the Heavenly Sword Sect, but he also became Yangming True Master’s stepping stone, mocked by many.

It wasn’t until the Vast Sand Illusion Realm, where Yangming True Master dueled multiple Nascent Soul True Lords along with Azure Phoenix True Monarch, that mockery gradually subsided.

So Yangming True Master, he remembered him very deeply!

”Yangming True Monarch had Ayoudo summon this Sect over, but for what purpose?”

The Heavenly Corpse Sect Master noticed that the Yangming True Master in front of him had already broken through the Nascent Soul stage and quietly took a few steps back, ready to escape.

He remembered early rumors that the Five Poisons Cult Leader and Yangming True Master had a close relationship.

He had inquired about it with the Five Poisons Cult Leader.

The latter explained that Yangming True Master was close with the Five Poisons Cult’s Sky Spider Envoy, so she took the opportunity to rope the person in, without a deeper connection.

Now noticing the sudden invitation from the Five Poisons Cult Leader, and the unexpected appearance of Yangming True Monarch, he immediately understood the situation.
