Chapter 485: Senior brothers, linked together
Ye Anping followed Kong Huayuan to a separate room on the third floor of the Hongyan Pavilion. The interior furnishings were a bit ostentatious, and there were several slightly scantily clad maids waiting in the corner with their heads lowered.
After Kong Huayuan took his seat, he called the waitress to serve a bottle of wine. His eyes couldn’t help but look at Feng Yudie, who was standing behind Ye Anping at this moment, looking down at her toes. He paused for a moment and said with a smile:
“Please forgive me for what happened on the street before. That boy just did bad things with good intentions. You were walking on the street with the immortal nun. I really thought you were an immortal cultivator who sneaked in.”
“The spirit ring around her neck is so conspicuous, but Master Kong’s subordinate’s eyes are not very easy to use…”
“Haha… That’s true.”
Kong Huayuan looked indifferent, stared at Ye Anping for a while, narrowed his eyes, and asked:
“I don’t know what to call you?”
Looking at his eyes, Ye Anping immediately understood that this should be a test. The evil spirit exuding from his body at this moment was from Gu Mingxin. Low-level cultivators might not be able to feel it, but Nascent Soul cultivators like Kong Huayuan could almost see it at a glance. They could tell that it belonged to the Heavenly Demon Sect.
Ye Anping thought for a while and replied calmly:
“Liang Liu.”
“Hmm… Nascent Soul cultivator named Liang.” Kong Huayuan flattened his lips and narrowed his eyes to test, “May I ask which sect you are a disciple of?”
“Elder of the Heavenly Demon Sect’s Prison Hall.”
Kong Huayuan’s eyes darkened slightly, hesitated for a moment, and asked:
“The elder of the Heavenly Demon Sect’s Prison Hall shouldn’t be Zhou Huxing, what about Elder Zhou?”
“Ha…” Ye Anping sneered and raised his head disdainfully, “Master Kong, if you doubt my identity, you can just say so. When the Ghost Spirit Sect invaded Donghuang, Elder Fu from the Heavenly Demon Sect’s Prison Hall died. With Young Master Gu’s plot, I’m just taking over Senior Fu’s mantle.”
With that said, Ye Anping pinched Gu Mingxin’s left hand at the back of his waist again, making the evil aura around him thicker.
After listening to Ye Anping’s words, he noticed that the evil spirit around him had become much stronger. Kong Huayuan was too busy and stopped asking questions. He held up his hands to express his apology:
“Brother Liang, please calm down. I have to guard against this situation now. I heard that the Immortal family seems to have plans to take back Donghuang, not to mention that the young master of the Heavenly Deon Sect has rebelled against demonic cultivators… I just want to be careful.”
“…”
Ye Anping’s expression remained calm. After thinking for a while, he raised his hand and grabbed the visor on his face, took it off, and put it on the table.
With just such a movement, Kong Huayuan was obviously more vigilant. After seeing Ye Anping’s face, he was slightly surprised:
“Hey… Brother Liang is quite handsome.”
“Certainly.”
Kong Huayuan was choked. After hesitating for a while, he looked at Feng Yudie beside him and asked:
“Then I dare to ask Brother Liang, why do you, the Elder of the Heavenly Demon Sect’s Prison Hall, appear in the Central Domain with an immortal cultivator?”
“I just came back from the Southern Domain and just passed by here.”
Ye Anping looked calm, raised his right hand, directed Kong Huayuan’s eyes to Feng Yudie, and was about to tell the reason he had made up a long time ago.
As a result, as soon as he raised his hand, Feng Yudie suddenly took a step forward and placed her chin on his palm.
?
Ye Anping was stunned for a moment and looked at her:
–What are you doing?
Feng Yudie replied weakly with her eyes:
——Isn’t she pretending to be your maid?
Ye Anping didn’t understand Feng Yudie’s brain circuit, but he reacted quickly and quickly used his trick. He gently touched Feng Yudie’s chin twice with his fingers, then grabbed Feng Yudie’s collar and pulled it off to let her lie on his lap.
Ye Anping put on a playboy smile, touched the back of her head like a pet, faced Kong Huayuan at the opposite table, and said:
“I was originally ordered to go to the Southern Domain to find the hiding place of Young Master Gu. When I passed by the Xuannu Sect, I met this girl. Seeing that she had good qualifications and good looks, I simply brought her back.”
Kong Huayuan was not surprised when he looked at this. It was not a big deal to cultivate one or two dual-cultivation cauldrons in demonic cultivation. He had seven or eight of them since childhood.
However, looking at Feng Yudie wearing a mask, he raised his eyebrows and asked:
“Then are you willing to sell it?”
“…”
“I’ve always wanted an immortal cauldron, but it’s a pity that it’s hard to find.” Kong Huayuan gestured with his hand and said, “How about Brother Liang make a price and buy this girl?”
Although Ye Anping had some psychological expectations and knew that it was common for demonic cultivators to buy and sell cauldrons, when he heard this, he felt inexplicably angry.
He looked at Feng Yudie lying on his lap like a puppy, and said with a smile:
“I really like this girl, and I won’t sell her.”
“Forget it then, I won’t force it, haha…”
Kong Huayuan looked a little pityful but he shrugged and felt relieved, and his tone changed:
“Brother Liang, you said before that you were going to the Southern Domain to capture the Young Master Gu…”
“Gu Mingxin has defected to the Southern Domain since the last time in Donghuang. This is not a secret to the Ghost Spirit Sect, right?”
“That’s true.” Kong Huayuan thought for a while, “I once went to the Heavenly Demon Sect, and I met her once. This blood-evil aura was adopted by the ancestor Yu Yan since childhood, but I didn’t expect that she was actually It would be a shame to betray the Heavenly Demon Sect…”
“Who knows what kind of benefits the Immortal Family has promised her? Hehe… I have orders from the Ancestor Yu Yan that she must be brought back to the Heavenly Demon Sect regardless of life or death.”
“Then Brother Liang has any clues?”
Ye Anping was silent for a while, then stared at Kong Huayuan and raised his eyebrows:
“Naturally.”
Kong Huayuan saw his eyebrows raised and immediately understood what he meant. He probably wanted to help himself, so he smiled immediately and said:
“Brother Liang, do you need help?”
“I originally planned to find the leader of Qulong Village, but I happened to meet Master Kong…”
“Um…”
“Gu Mingxin will come to Donghuang in the near future, and there is a high probability that she will pass by Qulong Village, so I want to set up an ambush here to capture her. But Master Kong, since you have met her, you must also understand that Gu Mingxin is not a fuel-efficient lamp…”
“Indeed, I saw her with my own eyes in the Foundation Establishment stage, beating the third son of Elder He of the Heavenly Demon Sect until he knelt down and begged for mercy in public… Now I’m afraid she is already a late-stage Core Formation cultivator.”
“So, I would like to ask you for a favor. I wonder if Master Kong can lend me some Ghost Spirit Sect disciples. If I can capture her here…”
After hearing this, Kong Huayuan held his chin and thought for a while:
“It doesn’t matter if I help, but can Kong ask my father for permission on this matter?”
Ye Anping smiled and nodded:
“Elder Kong Da is now in charge of Donghuang, so he should be informed of this matter.”
“Haha…” Kong Huayuan raised his wine glass and said in greeting, “Brother Liang, Kong will give you a toast first.”
Ye Anping glanced at the blood-colored wine in the glass in front of him, and then he quickly raised his glass in return. He and Kong Huayuan raised their heads and drank the wine in one gulp. However, before the wine fell down their throats, they wrapped it in the corners of their mouths with spiritual energy.
The waning moon outside the window crossed the sky more than twenty degrees.
After drinking a glass of wine, Kong Huayuan seemed to no longer doubt his identity. He relaxed completely and talked about almost everything with Ye Anping. As the sky was approaching dawn, he reluctantly bid farewell to Ye Anping:
“I will go back to Donghuang first. When I come next time, Kong will bring two beautiful girls to Brother Liang. How are you looking for them?”
“I won’t give it away.”
Ye Anping held up his hands and watched Kong Huayuan leave the room with a smile.
The moment the door closed, the smile on his face disappeared without a trace.
He took a sneak peek with his consciousness and saw that Kong Huayuan had indeed left Hongyan Pavilion and the flying sword had left. He was completely relieved and quickly blocked the door latch of the wing, then took out a bucket. Pour out the wine that he and Kong Huayuan drank from their mouths and throats.
“…”
When Feng Yudie, who had been standing by just now, saw him, she quickly ran over and patted him on the back:
“Young Master Ye…”
“Huh…” Ye Anping spit out the wine that had been wrapped in spiritual power, and looked back at her, “Why did you just put your chin on my hand?”
“Isn’t that more like an obedient maid…”
Ye Anping was speechless, sighed and said:
“Remember it later, you are the cauldron that Liang Liu captured from the Xuannu Sect in the Southern Domain. If there are outsiders present, just don’t say a word and just stand next to me with your head down. Also! Next time! Don’t put your chin on my hand…”
“Oh, hehe…” Feng Yudie nodded, glanced at the door, and asked, “By the way, what did you say to that person just now… Setting up an ambush?”
“When Gu Mingxin arrives, we will bury him together with Gu Mingxin. The elder of the Ghost Spirit Sect, Kong Xiangmo, is in charge of Donghuang. After killing Kong Huayuan, I can use his identity to act.”
“Hmm…” Feng Yudie thought for a while and asked, “That is… The dove takes over the magpie’s nest?”
“Almost.”
Ye Anping glanced at Feng Yudie, and after thinking for a while, he stood up and took out a roast chicken from his storage bag and placed it on the table:
“No, take it and eat it.”
“Hehe… Thank you, Master Ye~”
“Sigh…”
Ye Anping threw away the roast chicken and didn’t care. He put the mask he had taken off before back on his face, then walked to the window of the wing and looked up outside.
Then he took off Gu Mingxin’s hand from her waist, spread her fingers, and wrote on the palm of her hand:
——The plan has changed, come to Qulong Village.
…
——
After a while, the sun rises in the east.
Dragging the bloody spirit sword, it drove from the south of Donghuang and landed in front of a seven-story attic in the center of the city.
The Ghost Spirit Sect disciples who were running around the attic at the moment saw the people on the flying sword and quickly ran over and saluted:
“Senior Brother Kong.”
Kong Huayuan glanced at them with a smile on his face and asked:
“Excuse me, is my father be in the cabinet?”
“Yes, Elder Kong Da is concentrating his energy in the pavilion.”
“No need to announce, I’ll go up myself.”
“Uh… Yes.”
Kong Huayuan waved his hand, opened his folding fan, pushed open the wooden door of the attic, and walked up the stairs one by one.
Arriving at the inner door on the top floor of the attic, he gently knocked on the door twice:
“Father.”
Kong Xiangmo’s irritated voice came from the pavilion:
“…Come in!”
After Kong Huayuan pushed open the door of the pavilion, he saw an old man in black with a depressed look on his face, as if he hated iron but could not become steel, glaring at him angrily.
When Kong Xiangmo smelled that his son was full of alcohol, he immediately knew that he was fooling around again. His eyebrows trembled slightly, and he gritted his teeth and slapped the table:
Snap–
“You smell like alcohol, and you know how to fool around all day long!! I asked you to come from the Eastern Domain just to give you a good exercise. Think about what you have been doing for more than a year!!”
“Hey…” Kong Huayuan was not surprised. He smiled and said, “My son just went to Qulong Village. The Red Mansion and the wine there are much better than those in Donghuang. My son will give you my old wine. I brought some with me…”
With that said, Kong Huayuan directly sent the wine in the storage bag to his father and said with a smile:
“Father, my son came here to discuss something with you.”
“Discuss? Lack of spirit stones? Or lack of furnace cauldron?!”
Kong Xiangmo flipped his sleeves and knocked the wine bottle on the table to the ground, but Kong Huayuan was not surprised at all, as if he had known that it would turn out like this, and used his spiritual power to knock the pieces off the ground nonchalantly.
Seeing him like this, Kong Xiangmo gritted his teeth with hatred and asked angrily:
“Why do you think the Ghost Ancestor allows me, the Great Elder of the Ghost Spirit Sect, to take charge of Donghuang?”
“Are you interested in your old man’s abilities?”
“Fart!!” Kong Xiangmo yelled angrily and said, “I originally proposed to Young Master Gui that he should take fifty disciples of the Core Formation stage to chase the Heavenly Execution Sect, but from the fifty core formation disciples, no one from the young master came back!! After the ghost ancestor learned the news, he almost ate me!! Fortunately, Gu Mingxin helped me take the blame, otherwise…”
Having said this, Kong Xiangmo stepped forward and raised his hand to poke his son’s chest:
“You kid, please grow up!”
“Yes, yes…” Kong Huayuan shrugged slightly and said with a smile, “Father, my son wants to borrow some Ghost Spirit Sect disciples.”
“What?”
“To set up an ambush to capture Gu Mingxin.”
“Gu Mingxin…”
When Kong Xiangmo heard this name, he was obviously stunned:
“How to catch her? Do you know where she is?”
“My son has reliable information. She will come to Donghuang in the near future.”
The young master of the Heavenly Demon Sect, Gu Ming Xin, betrayed Yu Yan. This was already a matter known to everyone among the demon cultivators.
After Gu Mingxin escaped, Lord Yu Yan was so angry that he made several elders of the Heavenly Demon Sect into blood pills. He also sent an order to the Six Demonic Cultivation Sects to bring her back to the Heavenly Demon Sect if they saw her, regardless of life or death.
It’s a pity that no one from the Six Demonic Cultivation Sects had found Gu Mingxin until now.
Kong Xiangmo was silent for a while and then asked:
“Reliable news? Where did it come from?”
“My son met the elder of the Heavenly Demon Sect Prison Hall in Qulong Village before and had a few drinks with him, so he told me about this matter.”
“Elder of the Heavenly Demon Sect’s Prison Hall? Didn’t Fu Yuanhua die in the hands of the Demon Emperor?”
“It should be the new one, named Liang Liu.”
“Liang Liu… What cultivation level?”
“I didn’t use my spiritual sense to check, but at least he is a cultivator in the early stage of Nascent Soul.”
Kong Xiangmo stroked his beard and thought about it for a while.
However, no matter how much he recalled it, he never thought of this name.
He was the great elder of the Ghost Spirit Sect and a Nascent Soul cultivator among demon cultivators. He had heard of it more or less, but this Liang Liu…
“Nascent Soul? Liang Liu? Heavenly Demon Sect… Is there such a person?”
Kong Huayuan looked at his father’s face, smiled, and said:
“My son has tested it before. The evil aura on his body is indeed the evil aura of the cultivators of the Heavenly Demon Sect. Maybe he has just formed a nascent soul. What’s more, it’s normal for you not to know about the Prison Hall of the Heavenly Demon Sect…”
“…where to set up an ambush?”
“Qulong Village.”
“Um…”
Kong Xiangmo held his beard and thought for a moment.
If his son was deceived, it would be a good lesson for him. Anyway, the big deal would be to get nothing out of a bamboo basket, and there would be no loss.
However, if this news was true, and his son helped catch Gu Mingxin and sent her to the Heavenly Demon Sect, then he could also please Lord Hell.
Last time Gu Mingxin ran away, Lord Yu Yan was so angry that he killed several elders of the Heavenly Demon Sect…
Kong Xiangmo felt that there would be nothing wrong with agreeing, so he said:
“Go find Elder Chen and ask him to accompany you.”
“…Then father, please give me the sect token.”
“You just go directly. What sect token do you want?! Get out!!”
“Ah… Yes, yes.”
Kong Huayuan shrugged slightly, and then held his hands in a casual manner:
“Then son, please leave now~Father, you are busy.. Hhehe…”
After seeing him leave, Kong Xiangmo recalled his son’s words again, stroking his beard and walked to the window, looking towards the east.
“Liang Liu… The elder of the Heavenly Demon Sect’s Prison Hall…”
After murmuring twice, Kong Xiangmo shouted angrily:
“Someone is coming!!”
Two Ghost Spirit Sect disciples walked in from the door in an instant, knelt on one knee, cupped their hands and clasped their fists.
Kong Xiangmo turned his back to the two of them and ordered:
“Send a letter to the Heavenly Demon Sect and ask about the identity of the current elder of the Heavenly Demon Sect’s Prison Hall…”
“Yes!”
…
