Chapter 396: Chan Sect's actions, Burning Lamp goes to Xiqi
While Gu Xiu was accompanying Qiong Xiao to see the various states of the world and broaden her state of mind, the Chan Sect also took action.
Mount Kunlun.
Inside Jade Void Palace, the Dao laws flowed, solemn and solemn.
Yuanshi Tianzun sat high on the Qingyun, his expression solemn.
He asked the boy Bai He to summon the Burning Lamp Daoist and Antarctic Immortal to Jade Void Palace.
After a while, the Burning Lamp Daoist and Antarctic Immortal came to visit together.
"I wonder why the Sect Leader called us here?" said the Burning Lamp Daoist.
Yuanshi Tianzun sat high above, his gaze indifferent, looking down at the two below, and said slowly, "Currently, the Investiture of the Gods is full of variables and has escaped our control. Kong Xuan appeared at Jinji Ridge, blocking Jiang Ziya's path to conquer Shang, making him unable to successfully assist the Zhou Dynasty to raise troops to conquer Shang."
Hearing this, the Burning Lamp Daoist and Antarctic Immortal had different expressions, but they both knew that the current situation of the Investiture of the Gods was quite tricky.
After a pause, Yuanshi Tianzun continued, "Kong Xuan is the son of Yuan Feng and possesses the unique magical power of the Five-Colored Divine Light, which can collect everything within the five elements. The Golden Immortals of my Chan Sect are all difficult to deal with. Therefore, I hope that you, Fellow Daoist Burning Lamp, can go to Xiqi to assist Guang Chengzi and a group of Golden Immortals of my Chan Sect."
When the Burning Lamp Daoist heard this, he frowned slightly. This was a bitter job.
He secretly complained in his heart. He joined the Chan Sect to seek the Dao, but he never thought that the Twelve Golden Immortals would trigger a calamity. Currently, the situation of the Investiture of the Gods was unfavorable to the Chan Sect, and it could not give him a chance to fish in troubled waters. If he was involved in the calamity, he would also be very dangerous. He thought about whether he could decline it.
Showing a difficult look, he said, "Sect Leader, that Kong Xuan has great magical powers and possesses the powerful magical power of the Five-Colored Divine Light. Even the Golden Immortals of my Chan Sect are not his opponents. Even if I go, I am afraid the chances of winning are slim."
It seemed that he had long expected that the Burning Lamp Daoist would have this excuse, so Yuanshi Tianzun's expression was calm and he said slowly, "It doesn't matter. This time I will hand over the Pangu Banner to you to deal with Kong Xuan, and take the opportunity to probe his bottom line."
When the Burning Lamp Daoist heard this, he knew that he could no longer refuse. With no other choice, he had to bow slightly and bow to Yuanshi Tianzun, "I will obey the Sect Leader's arrangement."
Yuanshi Tianzun nodded, summoned the Pangu Banner, and a group of magic power surrounded and sent it to the Burning Lamp Daoist.
The Burning Lamp Daoist respectfully took the Pangu Banner, looked at Yuanshi Tianzun and guaranteed, "Sect Leader, don't worry, with the Pangu Banner in hand, I will definitely probe Kong Xuan's bottom line well."
Yuanshi Tianzun nodded slightly, "Go."
"Burning Lamp says goodbye." The Burning Lamp Daoist said goodbye and left Jade Void Palace.
Subsequently, Yuanshi Tianzun looked at Antarctic Immortal standing below.
"Antarctic, you said before that the three tombs of Xuanyuan didn't seem to listen to orders. Have you properly admonished them and let them do their duty to cause chaos in the court and destroy the luck of the Shang Dynasty?"
At this question, cold sweat broke out on Antarctic Immortal's forehead.
Before, he discovered that the three demons of Xuanyuan Tomb in Chaoge did not listen to the orders of the Chan Sect at all to cause chaos in the court, and Yuanshi Tianzun asked him to handle it.
Antarctic Immortal went to threaten the three demons, but it had no effect at all. The three demons still went their own way and didn't listen to orders at all. Later, too many things happened, and he was busy and didn't go to manage the three demons of Xuanyuan Tomb again.
After hesitating for a while, Antarctic Immortal informed him truthfully.
"Teacher, the three demons of Xuanyuan Tomb are stubborn and difficult to tame. The disciple previously threatened them in the name of my Jade Void, but it seemed to have no effect. Later, the affairs were complicated, and the disciple really couldn't spare time to manage them again."
After saying that, Antarctic Immortal bowed deeply, not daring to raise his head.
Yuanshi Tianzun's face was gloomy, and he was silent for a long time.
"Wen Zhong has already set off for the East Expedition to suppress the King of Pingling. You go and find the three demons of Xuanyuan Tomb and let them try their best to cause chaos in the court during this period. As long as they agree, you might as well give them some benefits."
"Obey the decree!" Seeing that Yuanshi Tianzun did not blame him, Antarctic Immortal breathed a sigh of relief and responded in a deep voice.
After Antarctic Immortal received the order, he did not dare to delay at all.
He left Jade Void Palace, immediately performed magical powers, turned into a stream of light and flew straight toward Chaoge. Not long after, he arrived above Xuanyuan Tomb.
Seeing the gloomy Qi lingering below, Antarctic Immortal frowned slightly.
"This kind of place is only for those with fur and horns to stay."
He gave a light shout, "The three demons of Xuanyuan Tomb obey the order, why don't you come out and see me quickly!" The voice was like a bell, echoing in this gloomy place.
Not long after, a burst of black smoke surged out of the tomb, turning into the appearance of two young women.
They were the Nine-Headed Pheasant Demon and the Jade Stone Pipa Demon who stayed in Xuanyuan Tomb to cultivate, with the aliases Hu Ximei and Wang Guiren.
The leader, Hu Ximei, had a graceful figure and a beautiful face, but it revealed a bit of charm. She opened her red lips and smiled, "Yo, isn't this Antarctic Immortal? Why are you free to come to the little demon here today?"
Wang Guiren behind her also covered her mouth and giggled.
"Immortal, after the last farewell, I thought you wouldn't come again. I didn't expect you to come to find our sisters so soon."
Antarctic Immortal's face sank, and he snorted coldly, "Don't play dumb in front of me. My Sect Leader ordered you to go to Chaoge to cause chaos in the court and destroy the luck of the Shang Dynasty. Why did you ignore the order again and again and delay taking action?"
"Don't forget how you promised my Sect Leader at the beginning. Do you know the consequences of deceiving a Saint? Can you afford it?"
As he spoke, Antarctic Immortal erupted with terrifying pressure.
Hu Ximei and Wang Guiren were suddenly scared pale.
"Immortal, you don't know, we three demons didn't not listen, it's just that there are many capable people in Chaoge City, so we have to be careful in our actions, right?" Hu Ximei said.
"Immortal, Sister is right. We sisters have also spent a lot of thought in Chaoge, but our demon power is low, and the effect is not significant." Jade Guiren said.
Antarctic Immortal naturally didn't believe the words of the two, but the karma involved in the three demons of Xuanyuan Tomb was significant, and he didn't dare to do anything to the three demons.
He could only threaten, "The situation is urgent now. I order you to enter the palace immediately to help Su Daji, confuse Di Xin to make him waste government affairs, and kill a large number of loyal officials. You don't need to do anything else. As long as it is done, my Chan Sect will not treat you badly and will give you some benefits. If you dare to slack off again, don't blame me for taking action to destroy you."
Hu Ximei and Jade Guiren heard this and couldn't help but look at each other.
They were currently controlled by Gu Xiu. Without Gu Xiu's order, how could they dare to cause chaos in Chaoge.
But they couldn't help but be curious about the benefits promised by Antarctic Immortal.
Hu Ximei turned her eyes and asked curiously, "I wonder what kind of benefits? Immortal might as well reveal a little first, so that our sisters can have something to look forward to."
Antarctic Immortal was annoyed, but he patiently said, "If you can successfully complete the mission and help my Chan Sect achieve its goal, after the Investiture of the Gods, besides ensuring you a place in the immortal class, I will also give you two immortal pills to help you become immortals."
After pondering for a while, Hu Ximei smiled charmingly, "Since that's the case, our sisters will try our best. But Immortal also knows that causing chaos in the court is not something that can be done overnight. I hope Immortal can give us more time."
Seeing that the attitude of the three demons had loosened, Antarctic Immortal nodded slightly, "Enter the palace quickly. My Chan Sect has given you many opportunities. I hope you will do it yourself. If you dare to disobey again, don't blame me for being ruthless!" After speaking, he turned into a ray of light and left.
After Antarctic Immortal left, Wang Guiren was a little worried, "Sister, what should we do now? We can't complete the Chan Sect's mission at all, but if we don't go to Chaoge to cause chaos, the Chan Sect won't let us go."
Hu Ximei smiled lightly, "What are you afraid of, sister? Let's follow them for now and see what happens. But Xuanyuan Tomb cannot stay. We have to go to the palace to find Big Sister and ask her if she can contact Gu Xiu and inform him of the current situation."
Wang Guiren nodded when she heard this, "Sister is still thoughtful." ===== CHAPTER 397 =====
