Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 3065: Chapter 88: You’re a Tree! Why Do You Need So Much Money? (Part 4)

Her gaze shifted slightly and she inquired about another matter: ”During this time, have you discovered Wang Shouzhe’s background and identity?”

”This matter must be reported to the Master.” The woman in purple dress replied, ”According to our intelligence reports, under the Sacred Master Ziguang of Purple Cloud Taoist Sect, there are no disciples named Wang Shouzhe or Liu Ruolan. I have already sent people to investigate their true identities. Just, I am unclear about one thing, they are merely True Immortals, why should the Master be so concerned?”

”Merely True Immortals?” The Blissful Master had a hint of a smile at the corner of her mouth, ”How do you feel about Youzong and Xuan Ying?”

”Nangong Youzong possesses True Immortal Realm cultivation base, with Class D Saint bloodline, he will most likely become a Golden Immortal and be at the same level as our Blissful Divine Religion’s thirty-six divine envoys, already a dragon among men.” The woman in purple dress was slightly puzzled but still replied, ”And Xuan Ying is the beloved of Tian Yan Taoist Master, it is said that Tian Yan once deduced her fate, claiming she has profound fortune, and could even help Heavenly Dao Sect to break through a crisis, likely to be an extraordinary figure in the future.”

”Haha, but compared to the siblings Wang Shouzhe and Liu Ruolan, Nangong Youzong and Chen Xuanying are nothing at all.” The Blissful Master showed a keen interest, ”I suspect they are hiding their identities, that Wang Shouzhe might very well be the secretly cultivated heir Taozi of Purple Cloud Taoist Sect and has inherited the Tao Book of the sect! Otherwise, it’s hard to explain why, despite their efforts to hide, I can still detect such intoxicating aura.”

The Blissful Divine Religion’s [Bliss Tao Book] is a very magical Cultivation Technique.

It cultivates the Path of Yin and Yang, following the path of dual cultivation, and after cultivation, one can rapidly enhance the cultivation base through dual cultivation with others.

The stronger the bloodline and the higher the talent of the dual cultivation partner, the greater the benefits for the cultivator.

It is precisely for this reason that after cultivating the [Bliss Tao Book], cultivators become extremely sensitive to the bloodline talent, future potential, and can also identify quality dual cultivation partners.

It is also for this reason that Blissful Master unexpectedly discovered the incredibly high aptitude of Wang Shouzhe.

”Secret heir Taozi?” The woman in purple dress widened her eyes in shock, ”Could it be that the Purple Cloud Taoist Sect has already decided the heir Taozi in advance? But if the Tao Book has been inherited, shouldn’t one exercise caution, why dare come to Southern Blaze Divine Continent so boldly?”

”Perhaps they couldn’t suppress their loneliness, sneaked out on their own, thinking that with secret techniques and treasures, others wouldn’t detect them.” The Blissful Master showed a hint of excitement in her eyes, ”If this is truly the case, then it’s a great boon for our Blissful Divine Religion.”

”Congratulations, Master, felicitations, Master.” The woman in purple dress was invigorated, ”If you can capture an heir Taozi who has inherited the Tao Book for dual cultivation, your cultivation might further advance.”

The Blissful Master’s eyes also showed a sense of joy, evidently satisfied with this unexpected delight.

Yet, after all, she was a Taoist Master of esteem, she quickly suppressed her emotions and regained her calm: ”This might be a blessing descending from the heavens, but our current priority is dealing with the [Lord of Underworld Hall]. Go invite Dark One in.”

”Yes, Master.” The woman in purple dress went away as instructed.

Soon after.

A man cloaked in dark robes entered and bowed to the Blissful Master: ”Dark One, paying respects to the Master.”

His voice was deep and cold, yet his tone was very respectful.

”Dark One, you come seeking me at this moment, could it be you have clues on the whereabouts of the Lord of Underworld Hall?” The Blissful Master asked with authority.

”To report to the Master, although the exact location of the Lord is still unknown, I have received a message from the Lord asking me to prepare six hundred Chaos Spirit Stones and wait for her return.” Dark One said in a low voice.

Six hundred Chaos Spirit Stones?

Even one as experienced as the Blissful Master was somewhat astonished hearing this number, and questioned in confusion: ”Why does she need to prepare such a large amount of Chaos Spirit Stones?”

”I do not know, but I can use the excuse of arranging the stones, to find opportunities to probe her return route.” A hint of coldness flashed in Dark One’s gaze, ”Surely, Master wouldn’t miss such a heavenly opportunity?”

The Blissful Master showed a gleam in her eyes, and a cold smile appeared at her lips: ”Indeed, it is a heavenly opportunity. That tree is usually too homebound, staying boxed within the Nether Soul Hall of Demon City, leaving me no chance to act. Now, regardless of why she suddenly steps out, it’s no fault of mine if I strike mercilessly.”

”Master.” Dark One’s eyes lifted slightly, as if a flame ignited within his eyes, radiating a fervent glow, ”I hope you honor your promise to give me the [Nether Soul Tree Heart of the Moon] after killing her.”

”Dark One, I am known to honor my word and deed unwaveringly.” The Blissful Master cast him a glance, a faint trace of displeasure flashed in her eyes, but she spoke solemnly, ”Moreover, you well know that the things I do now are not for personal interest.”

”I understand.” Dark One slightly nodded, his expression turned solemn too, ”As Master said, our Southern Blaze Divine Continent has been chaotic for too long. A powerful figure must rise to unify Southern Blaze to stand against the Demonic Clan. I, Dark One, was also spurred by the Master’s ambition to make this final resolve.”

”So be it, once I unify Southern Blaze and establish the [Bliss Dynasty], I shall confer you as [Tai Ming Divine King], a title that shall be hereditary in your family, similar to the Tranquil Sky Divine King of East Xia. But the prerequisite is that you truly break through to Level Seventeen with the Nether Soul Tree Heart of the Moon.” The Blissful Master said with great solemnity, ”Your family too shall completely rid itself of the miserable fate of serving a tree for generations.”

”Dark One believes in the Master’s vision and shall certainly not disappoint the Master’s expectations.” Dark One’s expression was firm, his cold eyes shining with hopeful light, ”Our Yao family has served the Underworld Tree for over four generations, totaling millions of years, it’s time to demand some severance.”

”However, it seems the Taoist Master of Tian Yan is also hidden in Demon City, should we act against him first?” he remembered something and asked.

”No worries.” The Blissful Master thought for a moment, then shook her head, ”Tian Yan has always been cautious, plenty of rescue tactics in assorted Dao arts, if we struck him now, it might not lead to a fatal blow, and if we alert the snake by striking grass, that’d be bad.”

”After dealing with the Lord of Underworld Hall, I will have a heart-to-heart with Tian Yan. I believe with his intelligence, he will understand the big picture.”

”Dark One, you may begin your actions. Once you ascertain her exact return route, report to me immediately. This opportunity must be seized with a flawless strike, giving the Nether Soul Tree no chance to escape.”

”Yes, Master.”

Dark One bowed his head and slowly retreated.
