"Little sister, you don't understand. The cult is not that simple. Besides, the mission we received this time is to investigate the branch of the Ancient God Cult. You will know when you actually meet it."
Jiu Jiu shook his wine glass and smiled bitterly. It was precisely because he was teaming up with Jiu Lin'er that he was a little worried. Jiu Lin'er's strength was pretty good, but he was too confident.
But being overconfident will often pay a heavy price when facing an actual enemy.
Looking at Jiu Lin'er with a look of disdain, Jiu Jiu was silent for a moment, gritted his teeth and looked up at Chai Jiangcui,
"Miss Chai, do you have anything important to do recently?"
After saying these words, Jiujiu's cheeks turned red. He didn't know if this was taking advantage of his friends.
But last time at the Lu family in Yingya County, Jiujiu had some guesses about Chai Jiangcui's strength. The only thing that could scare away the peak cultivator of the God of Refining was Huaqi. If she could be roped in, the strength of his team would undoubtedly be greatly enhanced.
"You want me to do a mission with you? If it were someone else, I might not be free, but Brother Jiujiu can consider it."
"really?!"
Jiu Jiu was overjoyed when he heard this. He didn't expect Chai Jiangcui to agree so readily. He immediately added:
"Since Miss Chai is willing to help, I, Jiujiu, will not take advantage of you. All the spoils obtained in the mission will be divided into 28% for us, 80% for you, and 20% for us brothers and sisters."
"Brother Ninth!"
Jiu Lin'er on the side became a little anxious when he saw that Jiujiujiu had divided his own interests so much.
Although she, Jiu Lin'er, is a direct descendant of a restaurant and doesn't value the trophies of cult demons very much, she can't accommodate this casual cultivator like this!
Jiu Jiu pressed Jiu Lin'er's right hand, stared at her firmly and said:
"Little sister, don't forget what your father told you. Just do what I tell you about all tasks."
Jiu Lin'er wanted to break free, but found that Jiu Jiu's hand was like an iron clamp and she could not move at all no matter how hard she struggled. When she looked up, she saw Jiu Jiu's eyes were unusually clear and bright, with no trace of drunkenness at all.
"...Okay. Then...listen to Brother Ninth."
Feeling the gaze that penetrated people's hearts, Jiu Lin'er nodded involuntarily.
After Jiu Lin'er was taken care of, Jiu Jiu no longer hesitated and informed Chai Jiangcui of the details of his mission.
Compared with sects, families have advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that the monks in the family are connected by blood, so there are far fewer backstabbings.
But the disadvantage is that no matter how the family develops, it always follows the elite route, and the number of people who can enter the world of cultivation is never as good as that of a sect that embraces all rivers. Especially for practitioners with low-end cultivation levels, the gap is particularly obvious.
The destination of Jiujiu's trip is Dongshi Town, five hundred miles south of Hexi City. According to the information from the Yuwen family's secret guards, there is a branch of the Ancient God Cult in Dongshi Town.
Because the Dongshi Town branch is close to Hexi City, it is one of the many outposts used by the cult to detect intelligence, and it is also a supply point for the demons who infiltrate Hexi City.
"The two of us are working with us this time, as are two disciples from the Tu Xing Sect. However, the monks from the Tu Xing Sect are not good at fighting, and are mainly responsible for sneak investigation."
After listening to Jiujiu's story, Chai Jiangcui suddenly had a doubt in his heart.
"I generally understand the mission. But there is one thing I don't understand. Wu Dewei monitors the world, why would they miss this opportunity to completely eradicate the cult?"
It stands to reason that the two major families are taking action against the Ancient God Sect. If Wu Dewei takes this opportunity to take action, another one from the Heart Refining Sect may not be able to stop Wu Dewei's attack, right?
"Now that the royal family is in chaos, how can they still have the energy to take care of the grievances in the spiritual world. As long as the Ancient God Sect and the Heart Refining Sect do not affect their fundamental interests, Wu Dewei will pretend that they have not seen anything."
Regarding Chai Jiangcui's question, Jiu Jiu's face was full of helplessness. He was also a member of the Wu De Guard before, so he never thought of asking the Wu De Guard to help.
But when entering the court, the practitioners in the Wude Guard will inevitably be a little bit official. Now is the time when the imperial power is changing, and the people above are mainly thinking about how to stand in line and seek greater benefits for themselves. No one wants to have someone under his command.
losses.
Gold and silver treasures are of no use to practitioners, but the trace of dragon energy obtained from the dragon power is something that countless monks who are stuck in a bottleneck pursue crazily.
"I see……"
Chai Jiangcui was a little enlightened. The royal family was in chaos and plotting against each other. It was not surprising that the control over the local area was at its weakest. It was not surprising that everything was focused on maintaining stability.
…
After drinking and eating, they picked up Bai Yuan, who had a round belly, and the three of them went straight to the South City Gate. Looking at the time, the two monks from Tu Xing Gate should already be waiting there.
Arriving at the South City Gate, Chai Jiangcui recognized the monks from the Tu Xing Gate at a glance. The reason was that the earth aura in these two people was too strong.
However, unlike the types of Tu Xingsuns imagined by Chai Jiangcui, although the two male cultivators from the Tu Xing Sect have ordinary looks, their bodies are still very normal, and they do not show symptoms of dwarfism.
"Young Master Liquor, here you are, who is this girl?"
Seeing Jiu Jiu approaching, the taller male cultivator from Tu Xing Sect quickly came up to him, but looked at Chai Jiangcui with a confused look.
"Oh, let me introduce to you. This is my friend Miss Chai Jiangcui. Her cultivation level is probably Huaqi. These two are brothers Liu Lun and Liu Jie from the Tu Xing Sect."
"Huaqi monk?"
Liu Lun was slightly startled when he heard this, and his eyes when he looked at Chai Jiangcui instantly became a little more passionate.
"I've met Taoist friends."
Chai Jiangcui bowed his hands towards the two brothers and said hello politely.
"Okay, now that everyone is here, let's set off now."
After exchanging a few words of greetings, Jiu Jiu brought the yellow horse that had been prepared and called everyone to get ready to set off.
Although the speed of the yellow-haired horse raised by the Yuwen family is not as fast as that of the monks, it is better because of its endurance. Dongshi Town is hundreds of miles away, so it would take a lot of effort for a few people to use the sprinting technique to travel.
At sunset, Jiujiu and his party finally arrived near Dongshi Town. However, they did not enter the city immediately. Instead, they dismounted twenty miles away from the town.
This place is the branch office of the Ancient God Religion, so be careful in everything you do.
Dongshi Town has a small population. It was sunset, and many people who had gone out to farm were returning to the town in twos and threes.
"Please be careful, there is something wrong with these townspeople."
In a small forest outside the town, Jiu Jiu carefully looked at the townspeople passing by, his eyes filled with solemnity.
Jiu Lin'er heard the words and observed carefully, but after looking for a long time, he couldn't see any clues. So he couldn't help but asked depressedly:
"Something's wrong? I don't think there's anything wrong. The expressions on the faces of these townspeople are normal, and they don't look like they believe in evil gods at all."
