Three's power. Buying those medicines alone would cost you hundreds of taels per pill," said Easyflow, assuming that Lady Two thought it was too much and thus explained the pros and cons.As Lian Xuan...Chapter 350 - Decision to Departure (2)
All the ladies were listening quietly without saying anything. After Free-and-Easy finished speaking, they started asking questions one by one, and he answered them each in turn.
"There's something interesting that you have to keep secret; don't tell anyone else." Free-and-Easy said with a slightly serious tone.
"I'm very discreet. I'll even watch over Lady Souxin for you," the eldest Miss said, patting her chest.
…"
The others in the car felt speechless; they should be least worried about her and instead need to keep an eye on her!
"The blood in my body seems a bit special. I have the bloodline of the Devil Sect," Free-and-Easy said.
"You mentioned that before. When you opened the Devil Palace, you dripped your blood there; did you forget That's normal and could possibly apply to us all," Lady Souxin reminded him.
Free-and-Easy shook his head and said, "No, recently something happened that made me realize my bloodline isn't just a little bit pure but extremely so. It’s pure enough for me to become the leader of the Devil Sect without any opposition from its members. However, I might not have real power."
…"
The women fell silent; they hadn’t expected this answer and were shocked that Free-and-Easy could be the leader of the Devil Sect.
No matter if the Devil Sect was good or evil, in terms of influence alone, no one would dare say they’re first when it comes to the entire continent's power, and they do so with a clear advantage.
Even without real authority, he would still be among the most powerful figures on the continent!
This is strange. A little servant could become the most powerful person in the whole of the continent...
"You didn’t expect that, right I didn't either; at that time, Black Snow brought a group of people to have me open a box..." Free-and-Easy accepted his female companions’ shock and continued talking about what happened back then.
"Wait. Black Snow You mean the one from the Devil Sect" Lady Souxin frowned; why was it always that woman
"Yes, I just said I went to Black Wind Fort for information. After finding out a woman from a martial arts sanctuary had come with a child, I poisoned the people at Black Wind Fort and then was blocked by Wan Jian Sect outside," Free-and-Easy replied.
"Wait, you were talking about that Devil Sect's Black Snow; why is Wan Jian Sect coming up now" Lady Souxin wondered curiously.
"This Wan Jian Sect is a branch of the Devil Sect. The Devil Sect has many branches across the continent, some are prestigious orthodox sects and others are empires…" Free-and-Easy said, as he hadn’t told Lady Souxin about this before; it was after all a secret of the Devil Sect.
However, it was only a secret of the Devil Sect, so there wasn't much obligation for him to protect it. In this situation, casually mentioning it to these girls wouldn't be too bad either.
"Branch Empire" Miss Third pondered and concluded: "The Greedy Wolf Empire!!"
"Yes, the Greedy Wolf Empire is one of them," Free-and-Easy nodded.
Miss Third continued to analyze: "I was also wondering why Prince Cheng Li was so friendly towards you. I get it now; they are a branch of the Devil Sect too. Now that the Devil Palace has appeared, these branches want to return but seek to gain some power in the process, which is why they need your support."
"Don’t you find this strange" Free-and-Easy noticed that no one seemed particularly surprised by this.
"I've already picked up on some clues before. The Tang Empire also has ties with the Devil Sect; don't forget, I control their military intelligence organization," Miss Third said with a smile, "investigation will reveal something!"
“You’re right about that,” Free-and-Easy nodded.
This situation isn’t hard to understand. However, he hadn’t noticed it either; usually if you don't pay attention, you wouldn’t realize such things.
"Continue talking. Did Wan Jian Sect accompany Black Snow" Lady Souxin asked indifferently, though her gaze was focused on Free-and-Easy.
Free-and-Easy nodded: "They can be considered to have accompanied her."
Lady Souxin asked offhandedly, “What do you mean by 'can be considered'”
"Why are you asking these things What's so important about it" the eldest Miss asked in confusion. "When did you become such a gossip"
She hadn’t shown much curiosity earlier; she could hold back on many more significant questions.
"I think this is very important!" Nan Gong Susan said somewhat seriously.
Before the eldest lady could continue, Xianyao spoke first: "This is quite interesting. I can say it’s because Black Snow was captured by Fan Gao from the Ten Thousand Sword Sect at that time. Her status back then was a prisoner!"
"Prisoner What does that mean" The eldest lady couldn’t help but feel curious.
“Fan Gao wanted to seize power, and Black Snow was naturally his biggest obstacle. Besides, the box originally belonged to Black Snow; he had to capture her if he wanted the credit for it,” Xianyao explained.
"How could Black Snow be caught so easily" The eldest lady wondered, since Black Snow was a female demon leader with many skilled followers.
“She was betrayed. It’s some internal strife within the Evil Sect that you wouldn’t find interesting! Let's get back to the point: their box has been around for over three thousand years and hasn’t been opened until now. Only someone with a pure Evil Sect bloodline can open it. At that time, they all tried, leaving me as the last option. They approached me out of curiosity, but unexpectedly, I managed to open it!”
Xianyao continued: "Don't ask why, I don’t know either. But based on a journal within the box, I’ve deduced something – it said that the Evil Sect originated from beyond this continent, which makes me think that this must be the Martial World Holy Land because my parents might have come from there, and they were of that bloodline."
"No way! The Evil Sect comes from the Martial World Holy Land They are evil!" The eldest lady immediately responded, not believing it.
“This is just a guess,” Xianyao replied. "And the Evil Sect isn’t evil; have you seen them do anything evil Previously, they weren’t called the Evil Sect but the Mo Yun Sect!”
"That doesn't seem to be the case. Regardless of this, your point is that you could open the box because your bloodline originates from the Martial World Holy Land, indicating the Evil Sect might also originate there." The eldest lady didn’t delve too deeply into whether or not the Evil Sect was evil since it wasn’t important to her.
"Right! It’s also possible they don’t. Fang Chunxue and Princess Zhu Yue's men might be part of a hidden branch of the Evil Sect; perhaps one of them gave me this bloodline, but so far, it seems more likely that my bloodline comes from the Martial World Holy Land as time, place, and people align."
"However, we don’t even know what those martial world holy land individuals are called. This is quite troublesome," Nan Gong Susan said.
“This isn’t a problem; we have their portraits, so we can ask around,” Xianyao stated.
"Right, correct. The Martial World Holy Land shouldn’t be that big and should be easy to find." The eldest lady nodded.
“Indeed!”
Almost everyone then felt the Martial World Holy Land was not large, but they didn't realize it surpassed their expectations in size.
The conversation continued for a bit before shifting. Sometimes it revolved around Xianyao’s experiences, other times about Lone Star's life, and sometimes centered on alcohol, which the eldest lady initiated.
Since there wasn’t much to do, everyone just chatted casually. Time passed quickly this way, and the feeling was pleasant, like a family sitting together.
The only problem was that if these people were to be considered a family, it would certainly be an entertaining one...
Deep into the night, the carriage continued its journey. The old man outside as an Imperial Martial Artist found staying up all night no issue for him; even with Xianyao inside, he could easily drive.
He didn’t intend to have Xianyao take his place because it wasn’t out of kindness but so that the carriage would reach its destination sooner by driving faster himself. Even if this time was only a little earlier, any earlier arrival meant something to him after waiting for such a long time.
Xianyao originally wanted to switch places with the old man since he had already made the bags – five in total, one for everyone including the old man outside.
At this moment, the Third Miss of Nan Gong wasn’t thinking about not having a bag because she considered it as hers; otherwise, she would have questioned Xianyao why he hadn't made one for her.
The reason was quite simple: You’re a talented lady, weak and delicate. Is it suitable for you to carry this They are different—they are all Imperial Martial Artists with abundant strength!
“Xianyao, if we find your parents, how do you plan on introducing us” Nan Gong Susan suddenly asked Xianyao when everyone was about to sleep.
"Introduce what" Xianyao asked in confusion.
"Introduce us!" Nan Gong Susan pointed at herself and the other girls around her.
“You can’t introduce yourselves What do I need to say, really boring, I’m going to sleep now. Goodnight,” Xianyao thought Nan Gong Susan was a bit silly for asking such a dull question.
"Stupid, Xianyao! She means how will you explain what we are to them," the eldest lady said.
“Moyu, what do you mean by introducing me Don’t I need an introduction” Nan Gong Susan snapped irritably.
"Of course not. I’ll tell them I’m his brother! No need for Xianyao to introduce us; I will do it myself!" The eldest lady said casually.threatening Mo family interests more than ever before.Knock down the grand lady's due honor.
