"Do you want to go to Yanjiang County with me?" Lu Yang asked Meng Meng Jingzhou.

Meng Meng Jingzhou was clearly tempted, but he still shook his head and refused: "I still have to train my shadow, I won't go out for now."

Meng Meng Jingzhou felt that if he were to be spot-checked by the Third Elder and discovered that he had neglected his cultivation, it would likely be more ominous than auspicious.

The path of cultivation is full of dangers, as can be seen from this.

"Alright." Lu Yang curled his lips; it was inevitably a bit boring to be alone.

"Hey, Junior Sister Tao, over here." At the foot of the mountain, Lu Yang saw Tao Tianye not far away. Judging by her idle pace, she probably didn't have anything to do.

"Senior Brother Lu, is there something?" Tao Tianye had a faint smile on her lips, which was very pleasing to the eye. Her manners carried a natural beauty, and one could foresee what a graceful and charming beauty she would be in the future.

"Do you want to join our Heavenly Court Sect?" Lu Yang invited her enthusiastically. As the Young Sect Leader, he had to recruit more geniuses for the Heavenly Court Sect.

"You probably haven't heard of the Heavenly Court Sect. It is the number one sect in the world..."

"Sure."

Lu Yang was stunned for a moment, and Tao Tianye agreed with a smile.

Zhifash

"Have you heard of the Heavenly Court Sect?" Lu Yang thought to himself, could it be that the Sixth Elder had told Tao Tianye about this?

"No."

"Then why did you agree so quickly?"

Tao Tianye showed a cunning smile and blinked her eyes: "Would Senior Brother Lu trick me?"

"Of course not!"

"Then that's it. Senior Brother Lu asked me to join the Heavenly Court Sect, it must be for my own good. Since it's for my own good, why should I refuse?"

Lu Yang was rendered speechless; he had never considered it from this angle.

"Then what exactly is this Heavenly Court Sect?" Tao Tianye asked curiously.

"The number one sect in the world today. The eight elders of our sect and my master are the Heavenly Kings of the Heavenly Court Sect, the Eldest Senior Sister is the Sect Leader, and I am the Young Sect Leader. We believe in the omnipotent Dou Dou Dou Tianzun!"

Tao Tianye automatically ignored the Dou Dou Dou Tianzun, whom she had never heard of, thinking to herself that she finally understood why her master had been troubled about naming things recently, saying he should name himself some kind of Heavenly King.

"Besides that, there are Meng Meng Jingzhou, Li Li Haoran, and Li Li Haoran's former daughter, Qin Yanyan."

Tao Tianye's expression was strange; she felt that the members of the Heavenly Court Sect were very complicated.

And why establish the Heavenly Court Sect? Is Senior Brother Lu not satisfied with killing the Demonic Sect and wants to replace them?

"The specific matter is like this. At first, Meng Meng Jingzhou, Li Li Haoran, and I were just out catching ghosts..." Lu Yang told the story from beginning to end, leaving Tao Tianye stunned.

As expected of Senior Brother Lu, his thinking is active, and he could even come up with the method of fabricating a religion to deceive the Nine Serenities Sect into trusting them. This is much more proactive than infiltrating the Nine Serenities Sect as an undercover agent.

"Our Heavenly Court Sect at least claims to be the Ancient Heavenly Court to the outside world. We must have a few geniuses who can be shown off. I see that you, Junior Sister Tao, are very suitable to be an ancient genius."

Tao Tianye was a little happy, feeling that she had been acknowledged by Lu Yang.

"Now I happen to be going to see the high-level officials of the Nine Serenities Sect. Are you coming, Junior Sister?"

"Yes."

Yanjiang County, Come Again Barbecue Main Store.

The barbecue shop business is booming and expanding rapidly. The figure of the Come Again Barbecue Shop can be seen in the counties around Yanjiang County.

If it weren't for the lack of grills and fire sources, the barbecue shops would have blossomed everywhere long ago, forming a chain industry.

The Nine Serenities Sect has put a lot of effort into opening barbecue shops, and the Sect Leader strongly supports it, proposing to put down current work and temporarily stop killing people everywhere. The current goal of the Nine Serenities Sect is to focus on opening barbecue shops.

This is much safer than taking out loans as a sect member.

The Sect Leader is so happy all day long that he can't close his mouth, and he even laughs out loud while meditating.

Vice Sect Leader Shi does not know that the sect has been in deficit for nearly a thousand years, nor does he know why the Sect Leader has temporarily shelved the sect's doctrines and urged him to open barbecue shops well.

Perhaps the Sect Leader loves money, or perhaps there is some other reason.

The Sect Leader's purpose has nothing to do with him; he is opening barbecue shops to solve the problem of the one billion loan.

Even if his cultivation is profound, he can't withstand a heavenly thunder strike every month. If he makes a mistake one time and fails to resist it, he's finished.

He is determined to make the barbecue shop bigger and stronger.

And he knows that there are two key points to opening a shop: one is to have a secret recipe, and the other is to have a good business environment.

The first point goes without saying; the barbecue shops are booming, all relying on the secret recipe.

There are many things that can be done for the second point, such as building a good relationship with the government.

Bribery is risky and cannot be done, and bribery is not reliable. If the bribed official is caught, wouldn't their barbecue shop be finished?

Vice Sect Leader Shi changed his thinking. What the government needs is stability and order.

Their barbecue shops can help the government catch criminals and punish them.

When it comes to crime, who can be more professional than the Demonic Sect?

Current crimes are all things they played with in the past, and they couldn't be simpler to deal with.

Of course, this kind of thing cannot be done openly; it's too conspicuous. The best method is to do it secretly, letting the government suspect that they did it themselves, but without evidence.

This is the best situation.

In this way, the government will suspect that the barbecue shop is an undercover business of some righteous force.

The barbecue shop also often punishes evil and promotes good, maintaining stability.

Under the influence of these two factors, the government will inevitably tend to protect the barbecue shop.

Facts have proven Vice Sect Leader Shi's idea. The order in Yanjiang County is unprecedentedly stable, the prison is quite empty, and the government does not spot-check from time to time, nor does it imply anything.

In the dead of night, the barbecue shop headquarters closes. The sect members clean up the main hall and the backyard. Vice Sect Leader Shi lies on the table and writes furiously, organizing the experience of opening the shop over the past month.

"Sect Leader, the people from the Heavenly Court Sect have arrived." Huo Soul Transformation said respectfully. He is the manager of the main store, and he is the one executing Vice Sect Leader Shi's policies.

It has been three days since the news was sent out. During these three days, Vice Sect Leader Shi hasn't gone anywhere and has been waiting at the main store.

"Sect Leader Shi, long time no see!" Lu Yang and Tao Tianye pushed the door and entered. "It seems that your sect's business is very good; you need new grills and fire sources so soon."

"Not at all, it's all luck." Seeing that it was Lu Yang, Vice Sect Leader Shi did not dare to be arrogant. This person is the Young Sect Leader of the Heavenly Court Sect and a direct disciple of the Dou Dou Dou Tianzun; he cannot be neglected.

"This is..." Vice Sect Leader Shi looked at Tao Tianye suspiciously.

"This is also a member of our Heavenly Court Sect, Tao Tian. Her talent is so strong that both Master and the Sect Leader have praised her." Vice Sect Leader Shi was filled with awe: "So it is the genius Tao."

Tao Tianye didn't show it on her face, but she was secretly surprised in her heart.

She knew that Senior Brother Lu was going to meet the Nine Serenities Sect, but she didn't expect Senior Brother Lu to meet the high-level officials of the Nine Serenities Sect right away, and to communicate as an equal.

Is this Senior Brother Lu's usual social circle?

Communicating with elder-level figures in the sect, and with sect-leader-level figures when going out, all of them are in the Integration stage!

Lu Yang and Vice Sect Leader Shi talked and laughed freely, not feeling that the other party's status was terrifying at all.
