Chapter 23: Youxian Sect War Deception Bureau

Tianjian Peak Master Li Wanji heard Liu Ruyan mention Han Yu and immediately recalled all the news about the latter.

"Reporting to the Sect Master, are you referring to Senior Brother Han Yu killing a Primordial Spirit Realm powerhouse with Immortal Platform Realm cultivation? Rest assured, I have already issued a 【Gag Order】 to the relevant personnel, and the news will not spread too widely."

As the Youxian Sect's intelligence organization, Tianji Peak was not only responsible for collecting news but also for preventing news and other matters.

When Li Wanji learned that Han Yu had killed an enemy two levels above him, his first thought was that a tall tree catches the wind, so it shouldn't be too publicized and should be done gradually.

Only in this way would it not bring disaster to the Youxian Sect and give Han Yu enough time to grow.

Just as Li Wanji finished speaking, Liu Ruyan shook her head.

"You misunderstood. I mean there is no need to block the news, and you can't block the news either."

"Not only did our Youxian Sect people see what happened that day, can you block the mouths of outsiders if you can block the mouths of your own people?"

"Instead of that, it's better to publicize it widely, so that everyone in the world knows that our Youxian Sect has produced a peerless genius!"

Liu Ruyan's voice was clear. Li Wanji was stunned upon hearing this, and his brows locked instantly.

"Sect Master, isn't that too ostentatious? It might cause hostility from powerhouses in the surrounding prefectures!"

"Even if other prefectures sit idly by, the Dayan Dynasty cannot sit by and watch our Youxian Sect grow stronger, thereby affecting their ruling status."

Hearing Li Wanji's worry, Liu Ruyan shook her head again.

"If we hide it, it might bring disaster. The more open and aboveboard we are, the more those snakes, insects, rats, and ants will be afraid!"

"Listen to me slowly, there are some details you need to pay attention to..."

Li Wanji listened carefully, his eyes getting brighter and brighter, and his gaze toward Liu Ruyan changed.

Sect Master, oh Sect Master, I thought you were delicate and pretty, but I didn't expect you to be so insidious, even more 'Old Six' than me, who works in intelligence!

Liu Ruyan's plan was very simple: weave some stories for Han Yu, such as him being a disciple of a super family from the Shangzhou, who came to the Qingzhou Youxian Sect because of some changes.

In short, throw out some smoke bombs to fool those who are curious about Han Yu.

If they can't see through it, they will definitely not easily take action against the Youxian Sect.

There was no way; the talent Han Yu displayed really shocked everyone.

Even Liu Ruyan, who had always had expectations for Han Yu, did not expect her nephew to be so heaven-defying.

Immortal Platform killing Primordial Spirit, only the legendary Immortal Body genius could do it.

Liu Ruyan, who was observing in the dark at the time, was scared until her delicate body trembled. After forcing the Dayan Dynasty people back, she spent a long time calming her mood.

"Nephew, oh nephew, you really gave me too big a surprise!"

After sending Li Wanji away, Liu Ruyan sighed with emotion.

"Looking at it this way, I guessed right. That brat seems to have nothing to do, only knowing how to drink and sleep all day, but actually, he has been cultivating bitterly in secret. This should be the legendary Wine God Path!"

Liu Ruyan guessed in her heart.

"I just said that with Junior Sister's mystery, how could her disciple be an ordinary person!"

While Liu Ruyan was thinking, Li Wanji had already started to spread the news obscurely according to her instructions.

Among the various peaks of the Youxian Sect, disciples were in groups of three or five, exchanging strange stories that had happened recently.

"Have you heard? Uncle-Master Han of Tianjian Peak is not a waste; his cultivation has already reached the Immortal Platform Realm!"

"Cut, it's just the Immortal Platform Realm. Our first genius of the same generation should have already reached the Primordial Spirit Realm, right? He is even a generation older than us. What is there to be proud of in the Immortal Platform Realm?"

"Hehe, don't look down on Uncle-Master Han. Although he is in the Immortal Platform Realm, he can kill Primordial Spirit Realm powerhouses two levels above him!"

"You're just blowing it. Immortal Platform killing Primordial Spirit, why don't you say he can kill Wang Realm powerhouses?"

"It's true. I was flying on my sword and passed by Tianjian Peak that day. I saw the Huike Peak Master take people from the Dayan Dynasty there. I saw with my own eyes Uncle-Master Han kill several Primordial Spirit Realm powerhouses, and later our Sect Master took action and killed one of their Wang Realm powerhouses!"

"Fake, why are you only saying it now if it happened a few days ago? I don't believe you could hold it in?"

"It's only just been unsealed. I didn't have time to communicate before I was found by Tianji Peak and given a gag order, so I couldn't say it at all!"

"It's true, I can testify. I saw it too, and I was also given a gag order, and it's only just been unsealed!"

In the Youxian Sect, Han Yu's name was mentioned again, but this time it was not as a negative example, but as positive praise, and it became more and more mysterious as it was blown up.

And Han Yu was completely unaware of all this. He almost never interacted with disciples of other lineages, and now he was addicted to drinking and sleeping, not knowing at all that he had become famous in the Youxian Sect again.

Two months passed in a flash.

Tianhuo Peak, secret realm entrance.

Space fluctuated rapidly, a rich flame aura permeated, and a red-clothed silhouette walked out from it.

She wore a waist-cinching long dress, her breasts were full, her figure was tall, and there was a touch of arrogance on her pretty features, like a noble fire phoenix.

Behind her, another red-clothed silhouette followed closely. Although her appearance was slightly inferior, she carried a heroic spirit and tied her hair in a high ponytail, looking very capable, like a female general.

These two were naturally Ji Yanling and Zhao Hongying.

Zhao Hongying smiled and said.

"Congratulations, Your Highness. According to your cultivation speed, it shouldn't be long before you break through to the Condensing Dan Realm!"

Ji Yanling nodded, her tone indifferent.

"Congratulations to you too. You should be close to the late stage of the Condensing Dan Realm, right?"

Zhao Hongying was not dissatisfied with Ji Yanling's attitude, but instead very happy, and nodded immediately.

During this period, the two had been training in the Flame Mountain Secret Realm, killing many fire-attribute demonic beasts, and also obtained many inheritances from Tianhuo Peak.

The relationship between the two had also become much closer.

Ji Yanling didn't like Zhao Hongying approaching her at first, but over time, she found that the other party had been releasing goodwill without asking for anything in return, so she was not that resistant anymore.

The two walked together, talking as they walked.

Just as they walked out of the coverage of the secret realm array, a young girl hurried to Zhao Hongying.

"It's bad, Sister Hongying, something happened in the dynasty. The eldest prince is about to ascend the throne and is preparing for a major purge of the Zhao family!"

"The General's Mansion has been surrounded. They have set a condition that you must bring the Ninth Princess back to the Chihuo Dynasty to recognize her ancestors, otherwise..."

Before the girl could finish speaking, she was slapped in the face by Zhao Hongying, who grabbed her by the throat and said with an icy tone.

"Who told you to say these things?"

The girl's face turned pale, not expecting Zhao Hongying to see through her scheme at a glance.

"Let... let me go, I have already delivered the words, it has nothing to do with me!"

"I am already the Eldest Prince's person. If something happens to me, the Eldest Prince will definitely not let you go!"

Zhao Hongying was not stupid. She looked at the girl coldly.

"It couldn't be the Eldest Prince. No matter how bold he is, he couldn't possibly have ideas about Her Highness. Your master is someone else, right?"

"Speak quickly! Which prince of the Dayan Dynasty is it!"

The girl didn't expect Zhao Hongying to be so smart and couldn't hide it from her at all, so she could only grit her teeth and shout.

"So what if I don't say it? I am also a Tianhuo Peak disciple, do you dare to kill me?"

Zhao Hongying narrowed her eyes, killing intent appearing in them.

Just at this moment, a figure appeared beside the few, and then snorted coldly.

"She doesn't dare to kill you, but what about this Peak Master?"

This person was Tianhuo Peak Master Sun Huowang, who had been spying in the dark for a long time.

"You colluded with outsiders and wanted to harm your fellow disciples. If you don't confess honestly, this Peak Master will naturally send you to Tian Yu Feng. I hope you can withstand the interrogation methods there."

Hearing the name Tian Yu Feng, the girl was greatly startled.

Tian Yu Feng was notoriously fierce in the Youxian Sect, specifically targeting disciples and enemies who had committed great mistakes.

"I... I will speak!"

"It is the Dayan Dynasty..."

Before the girl could finish speaking, her eyes suddenly widened, her vitality withered rapidly, and she died on the spot.

Sun Huowang was stunned for a moment and immediately saw the cause of the other party's death.

"This was placed with a prohibition, or a life-and-death prohibition. It seems to be the Confucian Sect's 【Sanqian Qikou】. Looking at her appearance, she should not have known that she had been placed with a prohibition. It was mostly placed secretly."

"When the prohibition was activated just now, I didn't notice it, which means it was a Wang Realm Confucian cultivator. In Qingzhou, the Confucian cultivators who can have this means are all directly under the command of the Dayan Dynasty Imperial Lord. A prince absolutely cannot mobilize them!"

Zhao Hongying was stunned upon hearing this and exclaimed: "Are you saying that the Imperial Lord of the Dayan Dynasty wants to take action against Her Highness?"

"It is very possible. Alright, you don't need to worry about this matter, I will report it to the Sect Master."

Sun Huowang said and left this place.

Ji Yanling frowned, and a look of severity appeared in her eyes.

"Why is that person targeting me?"

Zhao Hongying certainly knew who Ji Yanling was talking about.

Apart from her heartless father, there was no one else.

Zhao Hongying wanted to speak but stopped, shook her head, and still didn't say it.

Ji Yanling's gaze was cold, staring at Zhao Hongying, and she said in a deep voice.

"Do you know something?"

Zhao Hongying sighed and said: "Your Highness, you must think clearly. If you know about this, I'm afraid you won't have a peaceful life anymore."

"Speak."

Ji Yanling was concise, and Zhao Hongying nodded and began to tell the story.

"Sigh, if you hadn't awakened the Fire Phoenix Saint Body, perhaps you could have escaped this disaster!"
