"Having said so much, I also told you my identity before."
Miao Haocang suddenly changed the topic.
"Let me formally introduce myself again. My name is Miao Haocang. I have always been very curious about Mr. Ye before. When I met him today... he lived up to his name."
Ye Wu blinked and nodded.
"Then let me formally introduce you. My name is Ye Wu, um... I've never heard of you before." He followed Miao Haocang's persona.
Miao Haocang smiled, but it was a little more energetic.
Ye Wu said that he had no intention, but he sounded a bit unpleasant.
"Has Young Master Ye never heard of the Holy Son of the Demon Cult before?" He stared at Ye Wu.
"I heard it! If you hadn't said this, I wouldn't have agreed to go out to eat with you. Ah Jing said you were here. Oh, do you need me to tell Ah Jing and ask her to reimburse you for the meal?
?”
Ye Wu was obviously not on the same page as him.
Miao Haocang felt that he couldn't hold back his smile for a moment.
What does this mean?
No, I should say, what does it mean?
First, he kept talking about his power in front of him, and then he bluntly said that he had never heard of him, and then he asked the mirror hall master to reimburse him for his meal money?
Does this mean you already think of yourself as a demon lord?
He took a deep look at Ye Wu.
"The Holy Son's status in the church is no lower than that of the Hall Master, so the Mirror Hall Master is not qualified to reimburse me," he said.
Ye Wu scratched his head and said: "Is that so? Although I heard them mention the Holy Son and the Holy Daughter, I don't have any idea about it. I'm not sure."
Miao Haocang nodded and said: "It doesn't matter if you don't know, I can tell you."
"Our religion used to be very famous. Especially three hundred years ago, it was even more famous. There were also a large number of believers among the people who believed in our religion. Have these Mr. Ye ever heard of it?"
Ye Wu shook his head. The Mirror Hall Master and the others had never told him systematically about the Demon Cult.
Miao Haocang glanced at him and said slowly: "What do you think Young Master Ye is like now about my teaching situation?"
Ye Wu was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect that the topic would turn to him.
"Well...it's not good." He said honestly.
"Master Ye, please tell me in detail?"
Ye Wu thought for a while and said everything he saw.
"The Demon Cult seems to have always been in a position of being beaten and killed. It seems that no matter what happens, it will be framed on the Demon Cultivator. No matter what the Demon Cultivator does, people will think that killing the Demon Cultivator first will solve the problem.
matter."
"That's right, with the status of our religion now, we can't walk openly in the sun. Unless we conceal our identity, otherwise we will be surrounded and suppressed once we are discovered."
Ye Wu nodded in agreement.
"Yeah, it's really not easy."
Miao Haocang smiled and looked out the window, overlooking the city below.
"These thousands of miles of mountains and rivers are so majestic and beautiful, but now our divine sect can only look at it from a distance and hide in a corner. Mr. Ye knows that our sect was not like this before."
"Then tell me." Ye Wu said.
"Three hundred years ago, when I was elected as the Son of God, I came into contact with many religious leaders. I still remember that the number of members of the entire divine religion at that time, including believers, was as high as one million. How great the divine religion was at that time
Brilliant? How dare those ten sects to throw dirty water and suppress us as easily as they do today?"
"Back then, we were as famous as the ten sects. How could the three major dynasties dare to kill easily or even be wanted here today? When I go out, thousands of people will come out in droves. No one dares to disrespect me.
! They even called our religion a divine religion, how could it be called a demonic religion like today?"
Ye Wu listened and nodded repeatedly to show that he understood.
Such a comparison is really quite miserable.
"Further back, a thousand years ago, our religion was even more popular. It was once named a holy religion by various dynasties. Could Mr. Ye imagine such a respected status?"
Miao Haocang turned around and looked at Ye Wu, his eyes full of meaning.
Ye Wu nodded.
"sure."
Their status in the Qijue Palace is even greater. As the young master of the Qijue Palace, he has grown up in such an environment since he was a child. No matter where he goes, he is respected and worshiped by people.
"Don't go that far, it was still three hundred years ago. When those disciples of the ten sects went out, they never dared to take the initiative to provoke those in my sect. Even those powerful people had to speak kindly to us."
"However, even though I taught tens of millions of people in the past, it had dropped to a million hundreds of years ago, and now there are only a few hundreds of thousands of followers. Every time I think about this, I feel deeply disgusted!"
A flash of cruelty flashed across his face, and he clenched his fists, then reluctantly released them.
"There were quite a lot of people at that time." Tens of millions of people, this is really impressive.
"Yes, how powerful our sect was at that time! Who dares to offend one person? Mr. Ye, maybe you understand?"
Miao Haocang leaned on the back of his chair and sighed.
Ye Wu touched his nose.
In fact, he has no idea.
After all, no matter how strong he is, he cannot be as strong as Qi Jue Gong, so he thinks about the power of low levels from a high position. For him, this question is a bit over the top.
But you can’t say nothing at this time, right?
He could only say again: "There are quite a lot of people, and they are quite powerful."
Miao Haocang looked at him, and the expression on his face became a little lighter.
"When I heard about you before, I actually thought about a lot of things." Miao Haocang said.
"There are a lot of things in it. I think I need to meet you first. I want to know what you think and see."
Miao Haocang approached Ye Wu and looked at him.
"But you disappoint me a little."
"You have no sense of belonging to the divine religion at all. You don't belong here."
Ye Wu didn't know how to answer.
He has never been in contact with them, so it is of course difficult for him to develop feelings for them, but as far as Hall Master Mirror and the others are concerned, he is absolutely willing to protect them.
Miao Haocang sat upright again.
"But one thing I'm quite surprised about is that you don't seem to be very keen on rights."
"Those are boring." Ye Wu said.
If he likes it, it would be better to just go back and become the Young Palace Master of Qijue Palace. Of course, even if his sisters don't abolish his cultivation, he may not be willing to go back.
This has nothing to do with the sisters, it's because he doesn't want that kind of life.
"Yeah, it's very boring."
Miao Haocang smiled with unknown meaning.
"But more often than not, only by mastering powerful rights can we have more things, right?"
Ye Wu thought for a moment and did not refute.
"If you want to make the world respect you and fear you, you can't just have strength. Only power can convince people."
"That's not necessarily the case." Ye Wu said. He felt that if he was like he did before, even if he became the master of Qijue Palace, he would only rely on his sisters.
Such rights are quite unnecessary.
Miao Haocang looked at him, picked up the flask and poured a glass of wine without arguing.
