Chapter 224: Conspiracies Abound

It is just that this news did not spread; it was suppressed by Tian Guilong and Tian Vice Dean.

Once the outside world finds out, it will be very disadvantageous to the Joyous Union Heaven Sect.

Tian Vice Dean stepped forward just now to force out Lu Tianyu's Protector, to see this person's strength, and then formulate a countermeasure.

But he did not expect Dongfang Shu to appear, and that Lu Tianyu's Protector solved the crisis without appearing, which exceeded his expectations even more.

Murong Vice Dean was suddenly startled: "Are people from a Hidden Ancient Sect this formidable?"

He was also very puzzled: "When I performed Soul Searching just now, that brat suddenly used a soul secret technique on me, causing me to suffer a great loss."

"In that case, this child has obtained a great opportunity in the Forbidden Abyss."

His eyes were cold: "This child's actions today were seen by many people, and it will inevitably make everyone participating in the selection wary."

"But it has also buried a root of disaster; everyone in the Yaoshou Senlin will attack this person whenever they have the chance to seize the opportunity on him!"

Tian Vice Dean nodded: "That may be so, but this child's trump cards are mysterious, and ordinary people would not dare to attack him easily."

"My Tian family no longer has anyone to lead the team, how sorrowful!"

Murong Vice Dean gave a cold snort: "The entrance to the Yaoshou Senlin is controlled by us; we can sneak our men in ahead of time. Killing that brat shouldn't be a problem, right?"

"Besides, his Protector cannot enter the Yaoshou Senlin; that brat will surely die!"

Tian Vice Dean's expression was grave: "That is excellent; leave this matter to you to arrange."

"Dongfang Shu is personally supervising this selection, and the Law Enforcement Team this time is all his people. We must find a way to add our own people, otherwise, it won't be easy to kill that brat."

Murong Vice Dean gave a cold, sinister smile: "That is easy. Before the hunt, we Vice Deans will meet. We will unite with other Vice Deans to pressure Dongfang Shu simultaneously. One Law Enforcement Team is not enough; we need two or three."

"When the time comes, we will turn this selection into a home field controlled by us. Even if that brat had three heads and six arms, he would still die!"

"Additionally, I will secretly notify the students of Guangmu Academy that this brat has a great treasure on him, making him the target of everyone!"

Lu Tianyu made him lose all face in public; he must kill Lu Tianyu to be satisfied.

Tian Vice Dean nodded: "Good, let's do it that way. Go and arrange it immediately. Tomorrow we will hold a meeting to emphasize this Yaoshou Senlin mutation and the need to increase the Law Enforcement Team to ensure safety."

"Presumably Dongfang Shu will not disagree. When that time comes, hmph!"

After Murong Vice Dean left, Tian Vice Dean entered a secret room underground from the main hall.

He took out a blood-red Sound Transmission Talisman and activated it.

Hum!

A red glow flickered, illuminating the entire room, and a blood-red phantom appeared.

Tian Vice Dean bowed to the blood-red phantom: "Greetings, Venerable One."

The blood-red phantom's features could not be seen clearly; one could only see the person's blood-red eyes, and a mouth with black holes opened to say: "What, have you encountered a problem?"

Tian Vice Dean said respectfully: "Venerable One, the overall situation of this Changheng Academy selection can be controlled by us."

"There are many students participating in this selection, and their overall strength has improved by a grade compared to the last time."

"I suggest we seize this opportunity to turn the best among them into people of our Blood Shadow Sect!"

Outsiders all know that the cultivation technique practiced by the Joyous Union Heaven Sect is the Joyous Union Technique, which is a crooked and evil path.

However, outsiders do not know that the Joyous Union Heaven Sect has always been a branch of the Blood Shadow Sect, controlled by the Blood Shadow Sect.

Refining copper corpses, yin corpses, and gold corpses are all methods taught to the Joyous Union Heaven Sect by the Blood Shadow Sect.

"Agreed!"

The blood-colored figure spoke indifferently: "I will immediately dispatch people from the Blood Shadow Sect to the entrance of the Yaoshou Senlin; tell your people not to obstruct them."

"Of those participating in this selection, count them one by one; kill all who do not submit, and keep those who do."

"Additionally, that one called Lu Tianyu, it is best to win him over; if that fails, kill him immediately."

Tian Vice Dean was slightly stunned upon hearing this: "Venerable One, this child has already been taken into the fold by the Tianjia Sect and is unruly; I estimate he cannot be used by us."

"Hehehe!" The blood-colored shadow laughed strangely, "No matter how formidable he is, he is still human. Plant the Blood Demon Shadow in him and force him to step onto our boat."

"If he does not submit, kill him. You do not need to worry about this matter; just do your job at Changheng Academy well."

Tian Vice Dean had no choice but to agree: "Yes!"

However, he felt very regretful that he could not kill Lu Tianyu directly.

But thinking about it, it is understandable; everyone wants to get their hands on a heaven-defying monster like Lu Tianyu.

However, the way of doing things is different; some people give up if they cannot win someone over, but for the Blood Shadow Sect, if they cannot win them over, they kill them.

They never allow any threat to exist; it must be nipped in the bud.

Lu Tianyu did not know about these things.

He followed Dongfang Shu into the main hall of the Academy, then went to a side hall at the very back, and passed through a hidden portal into an underground space.

An old man with white hair and beard was already waiting there.

Seeing Lu Tianyu and Dongfang Shu arrive, his gaze immediately locked onto Lu Tianyu, and he did not say a word.

Lu Tianyu bowed to Lao Mo: "Greetings, Senior!"

Lao Mo nodded: "Not bad, a heroic youth; my Changheng Academy has gained another hope."

"I heard you are the Sect Master of the Luofeng Sect; may I see your Sect Master Token?"

Lu Tianyu extended his right hand and opened it.

Caw!

Accompanied by the sound of a phoenix cry, a miniature phoenix flew out with its wings spread, and a red glow illuminated the entire underground hall.

Wherever the phoenix passed, it left behind streaks of scorching afterimages.

Lu Tianyu looked at Lao Mo in surprise.

The moment the phoenix flew out, he felt that a Fenghuang Yinjie also appeared on Lao Mo's arm, faintly glowing, echoing with his Phoenix Ring.

"It is true!"

Lao Mo nodded, then knelt down before Lu Tianyu: "Old servant greets the Sect Master!"

Lu Tianyu hurriedly supported Lao Mo's arms, attempting to help him stand up.

It was a pity, however, that he could not budge him at all: "Senior, those are things of the past; the Phoenix Gate of old has already disbanded."

"I obtained this ring by chance."

Lao Mo shook his head firmly: "My Phoenix Gate has been passed down for hundreds of thousands of years, how could it possibly have disbanded!"

"In years past, although the number of people in my Phoenix Gate was small, every one of them was an elite, and their strength was no worse than any major sect in the Zhongyang Xingyu."

"From the moment I, Lao Mo, joined the Phoenix Gate, it was destined that I would be a person of the Phoenix Gate for this entire life."

"That the Sect Master was able to obtain the Phoenix Ring means there is a karmic connection with my Phoenix Gate; it is Heaven's arrangement for the Sect Master to be the master of my Phoenix Gate."

"With the Sect Master's heaven-defying talent, you will surely be able to lead our Phoenix Gate to rise again!"

Lao Mo's voice was resonant and powerful, his tone extremely firm.

Lu Tianyu took a long breath: "Alright then, I ask that Senior please refrain from bowing in the future."

He always felt very uncomfortable being bowed to by an old man.
