Chapter 249 The Infernal Threat
Chapter 249 The Infernal Threat
In the corner of the room, in the twisted shadows, presented a hooded man with gray robes, his back turned to Lu Chang'an.
On the back of that gray and white robe, an illusory door to the temple was inscribed.
Lu Chang'an's heart was flabbergasted, although he was not intentionally on guard, he only realized the presence of the other party after stepping into the room.
For a brief moment, the mysterious man's reality could not be seen.
This person turned his back to him, obviously with absolute confidence.
"Lu Chang'an, you've had an incident!"
The voice coming from the mysterious hooded man with his back to him had the power to shock the mind. "Which one of those things, Your Excellency?"
Lu Chang'an inevitably felt weak and tried.
He had quite a few hidden matters in his past and was completely clueless.
For example, assassinating Master Hua Dan, the Huang Clan's Foundation Establishment, and the grandson of the Elder of the Li Fire Palace, and diverting his attention to the Demon Cult or Xiang Jinglong.
Another example is disguising as Master Cheng and exchanging inferior crystal condensation pills with Fu Xuemei for the genuine ones.
In the ancient ruins, he killed two fake pills and finally got the treasure of Xuanmu Gourd Vine, Five Elements Earth and so on.
After coming to Jing Country, he used Xiang Zhenzhen's vest to kill Tiger Xiao Zhenzhen of Ten Thousand Beasts Chamber of Commerce, and maintained an unknown friendship with Cold Jade Zhenzhen of Snow Fox Chamber of Commerce.
"Which thing?"
The mysterious hooded man standing with his back turned, his pupils shrunk slightly, and he could not help but freeze for a moment.
Lu Changan had committed such a great event, did he not have a little count in his heart?
The mysterious hooded man snorted coldly, this kind of hold a lucky cultivator, in front of the absolute crime handle, will soon be able to break through its psychological defense.
"More than ten years ago, you traveled by turtle, on your way to leave the Mu Family of Fei Yue Lake, you encountered a team of Golden Sun Sect scouting cultivators who infiltrated Liang, among them there was also the son of your late friend, Mu Jiu'an."
"At that time, you killed three Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Golden Sun Sect!"
"And now that the Immortal Cultivation War is over, and the Golden Sun Sect has moved north to enter the Liang Kingdom, you should know the consequences of 'liquidation'."
After listening to the mysterious man's revelation, Lu Chang'an was slightly shocked, and then secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The killing of several Foundation Establishment Cultivators of the Golden Sun Sect happened during the war.
After coming to Jing Country, Lu Chang'an had paid attention for many years and realized that he was not wanted at all, and there were no relevant deeds to spread out.
Later, Li Erqing sent a letter through his grandson, and similarly did not mention this matter.
He basically confirmed: the shameful scandal of that year, Mu Jiu'an and others unified tone concealment, the news will be pressed down.
The first time, Mu Jiu'an and others infiltrated behind enemy lines, the danger was very high.
The loss of a few cultivators in battle was easy to hand over to the clan, and a generous pension could be exchanged for the descendants of the deceased.
"Your Excellency is a secret scout of the Golden Sun Sect?"
Lu Chang'an's eyes flickered as he asked in return.
"Golden Sun Sect? No!"
The voice of the mysterious hooded man transmitted a faint hint of disdain.
Lu Changan cursed: the Golden Sun Sect itself didn't pursue the matter, so what does it have to do with you?
Purely a mother hen hatching ducklings!
Of course, this person will probably use this matter to blackmail himself.
If it was an ordinary Foundation Establishment Cultivator facing a wanted man from the Golden Sun Sect, he would probably be terrified and fearful.
For Lu Chang'an, there would be a little trouble at most, no danger to his life.
In the Immortal Cultivation War, the Golden Sun Sect lost an unknown number of cultivators, how could they have that much energy to go all out and close the net one by one.
The normal casualties on the battlefield, not important people, most of them will not be settled.
Even if the revenge, a lot of individual cultivator's private behavior, or through the mission of the clan, let the members of the door to do.
It's impossible to let a YuanYing or True Dan cultivator personally chase and kill for this matter, right?
In case of an incident, Lu Changan estimated that at most there would be two False Dans, and if he was even more unlucky, at most there would be an early stage True Dan.
"Your Excellency is referring to this matter?"
Lu Chang'an's tone was calm and unmoving as he probed.
The mysterious hooded man frowned slightly, sensing that Lu Chang'an wasn't flustered in any way.
Are these things not enough to pin down the other party?
That's right, Lu Chang'an's ability to protect himself was not bad, and he was holding on to his luck. As long as the Golden Sun Sect's manhunt isn't too strong, he can completely change places and hide his name.
"Of course it's not just this one thing!"
The mysterious man finally turned around, the shadowy face under the hood, the corners of his mouth spread with an inscrutable smile.
"Back then, you entered the Ancient Ruins together with the Master Fairy! When Shifu Fairy came out and became a third-order array master, you ran off to Jing Country alone."
"Although the inside of the relic collapsed, Lu Changan...... you think that our intelligence doesn't know what you got from inside the relic?"
Lu Chang'an's heart jumped slightly and he said expressionlessly: "What did I get?"
"You have misappropriated the chance to end the dan, as well as treasures of great value, and have since parted ways with the Master Fairy!"
The mysterious hooded man, with a sneer, stared at Lu Changan's expression.
"What conjugation chance? There is no such thing!"
Lu Chang'an was stunned, his pitch rose, and he denied somewhat eagerly.
Taking in his expression, the mysterious hooded man appeared calm and collected, victorious.
Lu Chang'an's heart breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that the mysterious man's power is only a definite source for the first piece of information.
The second piece of information is partly speculative and not 100% certain.
The first information could not suppress Lu Changan, so he used the second information to bluff Lu Changan.
Even so, the intelligence gathering behind the mysterious man is extraordinary.
Luckily, the secrets of the Xuan Tian Gourd Vine were not leaked.
From the other party's mouth, he learned that the collapse of the center of the ancient ruins should be attributed to Fairy Shifu's departure.
This, on the contrary, made Lu Chang'an's heart drop to the ground.
As for the chance to form a dan, there are good and bad chances, and there is no shortage of true upper echelons.
Lu Chang'an had the protection of a True Dan Great Demon, and his cards were strong, so he could easily cover such a chance.
......
"Lu Changan, you killed the Golden Sun Sect's cultivator and got the news of the opportunity to form a dan from the ancient ruins. If these two things were to spread out, would you still hold on to your luck?"
Saying these words, the mysterious hooded man's body emanated a spiritual pressure if nothing else.
Admittedly, just killing the Golden Sun Sect's Foundation Establishment Cultivator would not be a very strong manhunt.
But if you add the chance to form a dan, Lu Chang'an will definitely become the object of key attention, and it will be hard to escape.
Not only will the Golden Sun Sect actively hunt down and kill him, but other cultivators will also be motivated to participate in the bounty.
"Huh! Only a false dan cultivator?"
Lu Chang'an could tell the real cultivation level from the other party's mana fluctuation at this time.
Let this guy pretend to!
He thought he was a mysterious True Dan big shot.
The hooded man's aura-containing means is very clever, when not using magic power, the early stage of the True Dan could be deceived.
When Lu Changan was in his normal state, his divine sense was at the level of a False Dan.
The ground-rock rats are not as vigilant as they are on a normal day when Xia Wenyue is celebrating her foundation-building ceremony.
This person should have taken advantage of the crowded foundation ceremony to sneak into Autumn Wind Island and try to blackmail Lu Chang'an into doing something.
"Who are you? What do you want Lu to do?"
Lu Chang'an was silent for a moment, his face did not look good.
"I come from the 'Infernal Sect', one of the Six Great Sacred Sects, and I am prepared to recruit you to become an outside member of our sect."
The hooded man carried his hands behind his back and smiled faintly.
"Lu Chang'an, this will be an honor for you in this life."
Infernal Sect?
Lu Chang'an had never heard of it.
The six holy sects in the other party's mouth, he presumed that they should be the rumored six sects of the Devil's Way.
Each of the Six Sects of the Devil's Path is a behemoth, and their strength far exceeds that of YuanYing sects like the LiFire Palace and the Golden Sun Sect.
Lu Chang'an was alert: how could he have been targeted by the Six Sects of the Devil's Path, and how could he have been caught by the Infernal Sect among them.
This matter is a bit troublesome.
"What does your sect see in Lu?" Lu Chang'an said, seemingly unwillingly.
"Because you are a 'good old man' with good connections. Not only are you integrated into the Jing Kingdom, but you also have hundreds of years of friendship with the Liang Kingdom's Third Order Formation Master, as well as Zhang Tieshan, the True Dan Elder who secretly returned from the Golden Cloud Valley."
"A natural hypocrite like you, and with the secret handle held by my 'Infernal Sect', you are the best candidate for an undercover agent."
The man in the hood spoke the truth without hiding it.
According to the usual practice, a loose cultivator like Lu Chang'an, who was not a member of the sect, had no loyalty to speak of, and could easily be turned against and work for the Infernal Sect.
When the target experiences the terrifying strength of the Six Sects of the Devil's Path and conquers the boarders of the major immortal cultivation forces, he will eventually become a loyal member of the Infernal Sect.
"So, the Infernal Sect intends to blackmail Mister Lu into selling his life?"
"You can understand it like this. This is this seat taking a liking to you and giving you the opportunity to change your destiny."
The hooded man's condescending tone.
"Lu Mou hates being threatened in his life." Lu Chang'an's face turned cold as he glanced outside the room.
At this moment, there was an invisible layer of light black light that isolated the entire interior of the room.
The Ground Rock Rats were coming from the distant underground by utilizing the Earth Escape, and it would take them a few moments to arrive.
"Don't presume to escape! With the restrictions placed here, even if a Pseudo-dan level battle breaks out, the outside world won't be able to detect any movement."
"Today, you only have two choices. One is to submit to my Infernal Sect, and the other is to die!"
Before the words fell.
A black and gray beam of light with arcs of electricity flickered, instantly arriving in front of Lu Chang'an.
The speed was too fast and beyond expectation.
In a closed room, even with Lu Chang'an's quasi third-order physical body, he couldn't completely dodge it.
Pfft!
Lu Chang'an's late stage Foundation Establishment body shield instantly broke, his shoulder was numb, and his body's mana stagnated.
"Forbidden secret technique?"
Lu Chang'an's mana was imprisoned in half, Evergreen mana was being cracked quickly.
At the same time, the quasi third-order talisman prepared in Lu Chang'an's hand was activated, forming a thick crystal blue water shield on his body surface.
"Good reaction!"
The hooded man in the field of vision, his figure blurred and disappeared. What remained in the same place was only a phantom.
Thud--
A shadowy blade, from the virtual to the real, as if from an unknown space, without warning.
The crystal blue water shield that could withstand the full force of a False Dan's strike was easily sliced through.
Lu Changan couldn't help but be moved, this False Dan from the Infernal Sect had strength beyond imagination. His assassination tactics could even threaten the early stage of True Dan if he had the intention to do so.
The shadowy blade, flickering with a cold blue aura, with half of its remaining power, chopped at Lu Changan's ribs.
What?
The shadow blade in the hooded man's hand encountered great resistance, and after cutting through Lu Changan's robe, it was difficult to advance an inch.
Ka!
Lu Chang'an's body drew up and swelled, emitting a terrifying physical aura, his elbow lifted up, and he threw back a fierce hammer.
The sound of cracking wooden boards rang out.
Boom!
The hooded man spat blood from his mouth, his body bent into a shrimp and flew out backwards, his back ruthlessly hitting the wall covered by the forbidden system.
"False Dan level body refining?"
The hooded man's pupils condensed, his heart shook, and the moment he flew out, he came to a conclusion.
"It seems that your Infernal Sect's intelligence is not detailed enough to choose to tackle Lu in close quarters in a small room?"
Affected by sleep, the word count of this chapter is a little less. Because the more yards, or the better the state, the spirit is easy to hyperactivity. It's the kind of exhaustion that has an effect on sleep. I'm not sure if I can make up a 2000 word chapter, but I can't guarantee it.
