Ye Fan returned to his ancestral home with the information given by Lin Xuanyi, made a copy, took a photo of the information, and sent it to Shangguan Liuyun.
Shangguan Liuyun immediately investigated the location in the intelligence and sent many professional investigation teams to the target location.
Lin Xuanyi sneaked back to the secret realm of Wuyuan where they were hiding and continued to practice in seclusion.
Two days later, the secret realm suddenly became noisy.
He woke up from his cultivation state, then left his residence and came to the central square of the secret realm.
This secret land is very small, only forty or fifty acres, with some residences built around a square, just like a small village.
This is the emergency refuge of the Blood Demon Sect and can only accommodate a thousand people at most.
At the beginning, there were about 180 people who escaped from the Blood Demon Sect, including dozens of saint sons, saint maidens, elders, hall masters and other senior members, as well as more than 100 core disciples.
These people are the mainstays of the Blood Demon Sect's future, and the future of the Blood Demon Sect depends on them.
However, since the great elder Hua Gonglin came back from the foreign continent half a month ago, he took away all the elders, hall masters and other eight-fold limit members.
At this time, there are only seventy or eighty disciples below eight times the limit left living here.
As the Blood Spirit Saint of the Blood Demon Sect, Wu Yingqing stayed in the secret realm to take care of these people.
Lin Xuanyi is her deputy.
Today, Hua Gonglin and the second elder came to select disciples again, preparing to take them out of the secret realm and go to other places for individual training.
They never talked about the content of the training, but none of those who went out came back.
Wu Yingqing asked several times, but Hua Gonglin was unwilling to tell her, and even treated her with an unusually cold attitude.
This time, Wu Yingqing couldn't bear it anymore and led several core disciples to stop Hua Gonglin and the second elder in the square.
"First Elder, Second Elder, where exactly are you taking these children?"
Wu Yingqing held a sharp sword in her hand and shouted in a deep voice.
"I have said many times that in accordance with the sect master's last wish, I will review whether these disciples can accept the inheritance of my Huagu Secret Realm."
Hua Gonglin said coldly: "Sage Wu, you have received the inheritance of the saint, don't you want other disciples to be like you?
Think about how prosperous the four elders, the three saint sons, the three saintesses, the twelve martial pavilion elders, and the eighteen branch hall masters were back then! But now, my Blood Demon Sect is at the end of its rope! These remaining children
, is the future of our Blood Demon Sect, and only by letting them try to accept the inheritance can we lay the foundation for the comeback of our Blood Demon Sect!"
"Great Elder, I never meant to stop you.
However, I have also experienced the inheritance of the saint, and although there are some casualties, the probability of survival if the inheritance fails is not small!"
Wu Yingqing narrowed her eyes slightly: "You have taken away more than thirty disciples so far. Even if they all fail, they won't all be able to survive, right?
Great Elder, it’s okay for you to continue selecting successors, but I hope you can bring back those failed children!”
"Saint Wu, since you have accepted the inheritance test, you should also know that failure in inheritance will have some sequelae.
Coupled with the injuries sustained during the inheritance, they must stay with us to recover."
Hua Gonglin looked around and sneered: "The spiritual energy here is too weak and is of no benefit to them."
"Okay, then I hope the great elder will take me to see their situation."
Wu Yingqing said: "The materials here are quite abundant, and the children are capable of taking care of their daily lives.
And Xuan Yi is also here. He has ten times the ultimate strength and is not much weaker than me. I think he can take good care of everyone."
"you?"
Hua Gonglin's slightly red eyes flashed with luster, and then he shook his head: "It's not that time yet..." "Huh?"
Great Elder, what do you mean by this?"
Wu Yingqing's expression changed and she asked quickly.
"I mean... you are not suitable to come with us yet."
Hua Gonglin said coldly: "Saint Wu, although the sect leader is dead, our Blood Demon Sect has also been forced to a dead end.
But matters of inheritance have always been presided over by us, the Presbyterian Council, and I don’t want you to interfere with us as a saint!"
Wu Yingqing was blocked by Hua Gonglin's words and didn't know how to refute.
Indeed, the inheritance of the Holy Son and Holy Lady has always been presided over by the Presbyterian Church.
Last time Dong Yuejun unilaterally accepted Shen Biqiong's "Blood Demon Saint" inheritance, which was actually breaking the rules of the Blood Demon Sect.
If it weren't for Hua Longhuang, I'm afraid the Presbyterian Council would forcibly deprive Dong Yuejun of his inheritance as a saint.
Now that the Blood Demon Sect has reached this point, the Presbyterian Council is very afraid that Wu Yingqing will take over the Presbyterian Council.
After all, every leader of the Blood Demon Sect is chosen from among the saints and saints, and the Council of Elders cannot become the leader of the Blood Demon Sect.
Wu Yingqing and Hua Gonglin looked at each other for a while, then stepped aside slightly, gritted their teeth and shouted: "Okay! Forget it this time, but next time, I will definitely go with you!"
"no problem."
Hua Gonglin grinned, revealing a strange smile.
"You, you, and you!"
He stretched out his hand and nodded casually in the square, "You three, follow me!"
"ah?"
Among the crowd in the square, Liu Suyang suddenly came back to his senses and pointed at his nose in disbelief.
"Great Elder, I...I am not a disciple, I am, I am the protector of the Holy Son!"
Wu Yingqing frowned and said, "Yes, he is Protector Liu.
According to the rules of our Blood Demon Sect, the protector is not qualified to accept the inheritance assessment."
"In extraordinary times, do extraordinary things."
Hua Gonglin shook his head: "The Blood Demon Qi on his body is very strong, and he must have practiced the skills of my Blood Demon Sect to a certain extent.
Saint Wu should know that the more skilled the disciples who are undergoing the assessment are in practicing my Blood Demon Sect's techniques, the higher their success rate will be.
Although this Protector Liu is not qualified enough, he is a hero regardless of his origin. If he gets the inheritance of the Holy Son in the future, wouldn’t it also be an inspiration to other people in our Blood Demon Sect?”
Wu Yingqing was a little moved and was about to say yes when suddenly Lin Xuanyi came from a distance.
"Guardian Liu is mine. No one is allowed to take him away without my nod!"
In the blink of an eye, Lin Xuanyi's figure appeared in front of Liu Suyang, looking at Hua Gonglin with burning eyes.
Liu Suyang is a confidant who was left by his grandmother Shen Biqiong for him. He is down-to-earth and loyal, and his strength has reached the peak of seven times the limit, and is only one kick away from reaching the eight times limit.
With this kind of strength, it is also the position of an elder in a branch hall.
Regardless of whether Lin Xuanyi stays in the Blood Demon Sect in the future, Liu Suyang is a very rare and good helper.
Moreover, Liu Suyang has a very good relationship with Dong Yuejun.
When Dong Yuejun left the Blood Demon Sect, he specifically told him to take good care of Liu Suyang.
Regarding Dong Yuejun's explanation, how could Lin Xuanyi relax?
Hua Gonglin narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Shengzi Lin, the last few times I came to choose someone, you also stopped me again and again.
My Blood Demon Sect is going through a trough, and it is a time when we are thirsty for talents. Are you having second thoughts by being so difficult?"
"Oh, Sect Leader Hua has shown me the kindness to rebuild, so naturally I will not watch the Blood Demon Sect collapse.
It’s just that Protector Liu is mine, you can just choose someone else, but he just can’t do it!”
"Hmph..." Hua Gonglin snorted heavily, with blood in his eyes. He was about to take the person away by force, when the second elder beside him suddenly grabbed him.
"Brother, time is running out, we can't delay it any longer."
The second elder's voice was very low.
"Um."
Hua Gonglin suppressed the blood in his eyes, turned to look at the other person, and said, "Then just follow me!"
"yes!"
The young warrior who was named was overjoyed and hurriedly came out of the queue and followed Hua Gonglin.
"May I have your name?"
Hua Gonglin asked.
"Back to the Great Elder, my name is Chen Yanbing, and I am the thirty-eighth generation disciple of the Blood Demon Sect! My master is Yu Feng, Elder Yu!"
The young warrior said.
"It turns out he is Elder Yu's apprentice, not bad!"
Hua Gonglin nodded and smiled.
"I will take you to meet your master. If it is possible, and you are recognized by the Holy Son's inheritance, the future of the Blood Demon Sect depends on you! Chen Yanbing, don't let me and your master down!
"
"Back to Great Elder, I will definitely live up to your trust!"
Chen Yanbing clasped his fists and replied with an extremely firm tone.
Hua Gonglin nodded and left with the three young warriors very simply.
Lin Xuanyi looked at their disappearing figures and had a bad feeling in his heart.
It has been ten days, and they have taken away dozens of core disciples, but none of them can come back.
Lin Xuanyi always felt that the disciples Hua Gonglin selected were not to accept the inheritance, but had other ulterior motives! Even the senior members of the Blood Demon Sect who left Hua Gonglin at the beginning were likely to have suffered
Something unexpected happened.
Otherwise, Hua Gonglin would not bring back only the second elder every time.
Wu Yingqing looked at Lin Xuanyi and asked in a low voice: "Xuan Yi, are you out of seclusion?"
"Aunt Wu, you have worked hard these days."
Lin Xuanyi cupped his hands and said, "I still have some thoughts to summarize, so I will take my leave now."
"Go ahead."
Wu Yingqing's eyes were complicated and she nodded gently.
"Protector Liu, let's go!"
Lin Xuanyi waved to Liu Suyang.
"yes!"
Liu Suyang quickly followed Lin Xuanyi's footsteps.
The two returned to Lin Xuanyi's residence. Lin Xuanyi suddenly closed the door tightly and took Liu Suyang to the study.
Liu Suyang was confused, "Lord Shengzi, what's wrong with you?"
"Hufa Liu, I have a very important thing that you need to do now."
Lin Xuanyi's face was stern.
"Please give me your orders, Lord Holy Son!"
"You betrayed the Blood Demon Sect tonight!"
Lin Xuanyi said word for word.
"ah?"
Liu Suyang's face changed greatly, "Lord Shengzi, stop joking, I..." "Don't worry, I have arranged your family properly, there will be no problem."
Lin Xuanyi took out a space key from the space stone and handed it to Liu Suyang.
"I will make an appointment with Aunt Wu in the evening and take the opportunity to give her some medicine. You can sneak up on me and then use the space key to leave the secret realm and go to Miss Dong in Binhai! This is the secret message I gave her. You must bring it to me!
I told you in the letter that you will stay by her side to protect her from now on! Guardian Liu, you are familiar with Miss Dong and know her character, she will not treat you badly!"
