Chapter 141
"Master Fu, it's been a few days since you came back, but you have never discussed with us about dealing with the Netherworld, we are here today in the hope that you can take this matter seriously, draw up a plan to capture it as soon as possible, and don't find any excuses to escape." The sun had just risen, and the main hall of the firmament gate was full of people, Fu Baizhi sat on the main seat with her head propped up, drinking the tea in front of her boredly.
It has been dozens of days since she returned to the Firmament Gate from the Cold Courtyard, and she is indeed as these people said, except for practicing in a daze every day, she has not done anything practical. After the farce between her and Hua Yeyu in the Firmament Gate last time, no one in the Firmament Gate has come to apprentice again in the past half a year, compared to the prosperity of the past, it is indeed much colder, and those famous and decent families are even more dangerous to themselves, and it is not enough to prevent the Underworld Palace, let alone recruit new disciples.
"There hasn't been any movement in the Underworld Palace these days." Fu Baizhi replied in a low voice, looking at those decent old men who stared at the graybeard after hearing this, looking like they dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak, they were inexplicably comfortable.
"Master Fu, it's not that we have to sit back and wait if they don't move, we let you come back to preside over the overall situation, just to let you formulate a plan to attack the Immortal Palace, they now..."
"Oh no, Master Fu, everyone, it's not good! That cult demon girl, the Immortal Palace, is crazy, crazy! Just as a group of people were surrounding Fu Baizhi and wanted to ask for an explanation, suddenly a disciple of the Firmament Gate ran over in a panic, his body was covered with dirt and blood, and his face was terrified. Xu ran too quickly, and he fell into the main hall, muttering the same words all the time, obviously frightened.
"Don't worry, what's the matter, what did the Hellworld Palace do!" Seeing that disciple running in, people from other sects asked one after another, and the man immediately began to cry. "Back to the heads, Master Fu... That Hellworld, they are really not human. Today, the disciples and other disciples passed by Xishan Town, and they saw that the Immortal Palace was slaughtering the city! They threw a lot of poison into the city, and when they entered the city, they killed everyone, even the children, and if it wasn't for the disciple's timely escape, I was afraid that they would have died at the hands of the Hades Palace like other senior brothers. ”
"What? The Immortal Palace actually slaughtered the city, how dare they do this! It's so cruel and inhumane! Master Fu, things have come to this point, what are you waiting for? Even if that Hua Yeyu used to be your junior sister, now that she has escaped into the demon path, she actually did such a thing as slaughtering the city, if such a demon girl is not killed, let alone martial arts, I am afraid that the whole country will be ruined. ”
The old man said excitedly, but Fu Baizhi couldn't believe that Hua Yeyu would do that, looking at the room of people waiting for his reply, Fu Baizhi got up and walked towards the door. "Let's go." When the words landed, she had already taken the first step to carry her internal strength and left quickly, and everyone looked at each other and followed closely.
They are all people in the martial arts, and if they want to reach their destination quickly, they are naturally the fastest to use light skills. Within a few hours, the group came to Xishan Town. Because they were moving forward at the fastest speed all the way, not to mention ordinary disciples, even some elders with profound internal strength couldn't help but be tired and weak, but Fu Baizhi stood at the entrance of the city as if he had no one.
Xishan Town was originally a wealthy town, but now, this place of people has no signs of life. The whole town was on fire, and even spread to the western yam forest on one side, burning the entire forest to ruins. The poisonous miasma floated over the town, blood stained the walls and floors of the town, and even some stumps were thrown to the ground. This kind of scene is indeed like a purgatory on earth, and people can't bear to look at it anymore.
Even if she can't feel the seven emotions and six desires, seeing such a scene, Fu Baizhi still has to be moved. She didn't expect Hua Yeyu to really do such a thing, even if it had been so long in ancient times, she was still a modern person in her bones. The people of a city, if not ten thousand, but thousands, are now all bones.
She didn't feel much fluctuation in her heart, but she wanted to know the reason for what Hua Yeyu did, she was like this, not only would she become the public enemy of the martial arts, but the court would not let her go. Thinking of this, Fu Baizhi couldn't help frowning, she had always been selfish, she was obviously more concerned about the safety of Hua Yeyu than the lives of the people in this city.
"This, this is simply not a human thing! Hades Palace, they are simply mutilating innocents and poisoning unrelated people. Master Fu, things have come to this point, if the Hellworld Palace is not eliminated for a day, the entire rivers and lakes and even the entire Jiangshan Sheji will be in danger, and please quickly gather all the martial arts decencies as the master of the Firmament Gate, discuss the killing of the cult demon girl Hua Yeyu, and return the martial arts to a stable one. ”
This messy empty city angered all the martial arts people, and they knelt on the ground one after another, begging Fu Baizhi to preside over the overall situation. Seeing this, she knew that she had no way to shirk it, so she could only nod and return to the Firmament Gate with everyone.
A few days later, all the martial arts sects gathered, including some people from the imperial court. They got together for only one purpose, that is, to eradicate the First Cult Immortal Palace and kill the cult demon girl Hua Yeyu. Listen to what they say about how vicious, ruthless, and extravagant they are. Fu Baizhi covered her heart without any reaction, but found that she didn't have any discomfort in her heart.
If before, when she heard someone say this, she would definitely be angry and retort, but now, she can only care about Hua Yeyu, but she can't worry about this person from the bottom of her heart. Such a change made Fu Baizhi feel pale and powerless, and she was so engrossed in her mind that she didn't notice that everyone had focused on herself, waiting for her answer.
"Master Fu, now the martial arts dragons have no leader, and you are the strongest martial arts among us, you deserve to succeed as the leader of the martial arts alliance, cooperate with us, and kill the rebellious demons of the Underworld Palace together."
"It's... I'm still young, so I'm afraid something is wrong. Fu Baizhi didn't want to take the position of the leader of the martial arts alliance, she still hated trouble, and after practicing the Ice Heart Technique, her temperament was much soothed and lighter. Who wins and who loses in martial arts, and what this country is, has nothing to do with her. She was just worried about Hua Yeyu before she came out of the cold courtyard.
"Master Fu's words are wrong, the leader of the martial arts alliance has always been a capable person, and it has nothing to do with age. Your skills are obvious to all, and please let go of those personal emotions and think about big things. Seeing that those people were going to kneel down again, Fu Baizhi was tired of this kind of sanctimonious words, she thought about it for a long time, if she didn't mention the troublesome things after taking over the alliance leader, if she sat in this position, it would be more convenient to help Hua Yeyu solve this farce that shouldn't have happened. In the end, Fu Baizhi still nodded and responded to this position.
As the token of the martial arts alliance leader was handed over to her, at this moment, Fu Baizhi felt a little trance. She should be the one who knows the world best than others. She is the author who created this world, but she came here inexplicably and messed up the original trajectory. The token in her hand should have been held by Hua Yeyu, but now she wants to be her enemy in such an identity.
Thinking of what happened now, Fu Baizhi shook her head. She has always been just an ordinary person who wants to live an ordinary life, but the normality she longs for is getting farther and farther away from her.
"Congratulations to the head of the sect for becoming the leader of the martial arts alliance." After Fu Baizhi succeeded to the throne, the heads of those other sects naturally left the main hall to rest, seeing Mu Ziying half-kneeling in front of her, although Fu Baizhi was still unwary of her in her heart, she didn't say anything, only sighed. The atmosphere was awkward for a while, and at this time, another person in the room spoke again.
Following the voice, Fu Baizhi found that this person didn't seem to have appeared for a long time, and she almost forgot about him. I haven't seen him for almost a year, this man is still used to wearing white clothes and smiling gently, he is the hero of this world, Helian Sheng.
"Master Fu, I really didn't expect that every time I see you, you will change your identity, and in the future, I'm afraid that I won't even be able to call the head of the house, and I will change my name to the master of the Fu League."
"Helian Gongzi laughed, I don't know why you, a businessman, came here." Fu Baizhi has never liked to give Helian Sheng face when she speaks, but she is curious, this person clearly does not know martial arts, and he has not participated much in martial arts, so he came to join in the fun.
"Isn't Master Fu unaware? Now not only the rivers and lakes, but even the imperial court has heard of the disaster done by the Hades Palace, and plans to send someone to interfere in this matter. Although I am only a businessman, I should at least contribute at this time and provide some necessary materials to help, and I came with your father, Mr. Lu Qilu, didn't you see it? ”
Helian Sheng said with some confusion, but Fu Baizhi was stunned by his words. No wonder she always felt that there was a look at her for a while, if she was not mistaken, it should be the original owner of this body, Lu Jili's biological father, Lu Qi.
Speaking of this Lu family, it is also a strange merchant. It is clear that the family has money, but he wants to send his daughter to this firmament gate to learn what martial arts, and later he ignores this daughter for several years. Fu Baizhi once inquired about the Lu family, and also symbolically sent a letter to report safety, at that time she was just to prevent the Lu family from suspecting that Lu Jili was no longer there, who knew that she sent a letter, and what she received was just the big words "Don't send a letter" if there is nothing to do.
Thinking about Lu Jili's status in the Lu family, it was not high, after all, the Lu family had other heirs, and it was ignored like this, Fu Baizhi was also happy, and simply changed back to his name. I didn't expect that I would become the leader of the martial arts alliance, and this Lu Qi also came to give good things, it was really... Power.
"Oh, there's nothing you can do first, I want to rest." Fu Baizhi hated Helian Sheng and Mu Ziying, these two people appeared in front of her together, she hated it even more, she didn't even think about it, she directly issued an eviction order, and was driven away by Fu Baizhi together, Helian Sheng and Mu Ziying did not show disgust, but turned around and walked out, taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, they left the Sky Gate separately, and finally met in a remote mountain forest.
The two men walked silently to the cave in the mountain forest, which was not easy to find, and just after entering, they smelled a pungent and disgusting smell of blood, and in the innermost part of the cave, a man dressed in black sat in it, his hands were all cut off, and he moved with prosthetic limbs made of iron. The pale hair, stained with blood, covered his face and made it impossible to see his face.
He was now eating a dead baby, covered in blood, with half of its head gnawed off, perhaps a few hours ago he was a lively child, but at this moment, it became food for other people's mouths. The sound of bones and meat being chewed was particularly obvious, and the whole body was numb when I heard it, Mu Ziying couldn't help retching*, but on the other hand, Helian Sheng's face was not very good.
"Master, everything is under your control. Fu Baizhi was indeed elected by the righteous faction as the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance, and planned to start a war with the Netherworld. Mu Ziying respectfully half-bent her body, not daring to look up at the person who was eating the baby. After a while, the half-eaten body of the baby was thrown to the ground with a muffled thud, followed by the man's maniacal laughter.
"Hahaha, good, good, you two did a good job, if it weren't for you, the plan wouldn't have been completed so quickly. It's just that Hua Yeyu was too cunning, and it directly destroyed Xishan Yaolin and Xishan Town. Thousands of medicine people who had been trained by the teacher with great difficulty were actually killed by her so easily. The man spoke, his voice fierce. He wiped the blood of his prosthetic leg with his clothes, and his eyes were bloodthirsty with cruelty.
"Master, we didn't expect that Xishan Town would be slaughtered this time, but the Hellworld Palace was also attacked because of this, and the imperial court actually sent people to intervene when fighting against foreign enemies, so it must have been angered by this slaughter of the city. This time, that Hua Yeyu will definitely be eradicated, and the personnel of the imperial court will also suffer a great loss. When the time comes, the Hades Palace and the Aoi Hailin will be in the master's pocket. If the matter is done, I hope that the master will not forget what he promised me, if the dead man is trained, my Helian family will control the world, and naturally there will be more money to fund you. ”
Helian Sheng said respectfully, there was already a sly smile on his face, Helian family was not an ordinary businessman, in Helian Sheng's grandfather's generation, he was the famous town king Helian Duan. Originally, this throne should have belonged to Helian Duan, but he was defeated by the first emperor in a move and was beheaded by the whole family, fortunately, Helian Sheng's father was secretly taken away by a heartfelt servant to avoid death, and never asked about the affairs of the court, but did business in the rivers and lakes in a low-key manner, and secretly recruited troops and horses. They have been dormant for so long, colluding with their neighbors, and creating this calamity, just so that they can one day obtain this throne.
Helian Sheng thought about it beautifully, but saw that the person sitting suddenly stood up and slowly approached him. With his arrival, the surrounding air condensed with a burst of bloody smell, Helian Sheng and Mu Ziying couldn't hold back the desire to vomit*, and looked up at the comer.
"Ah Sheng, you are my disciple, I will naturally treat you well, and please rest assured that Mr. Helian can rest assured, if I win the Hades Palace, I will naturally train ten thousand dead soldiers for him first. However, this plan should not be taken lightly. After all, this Fu Baizhi and Hua Yeyu were both my apprentices, and the two of them are thoughtful, so it's really not easy to fool. Especially Fu Baizhi, she is Fu Baizhi, not the previous Lu Jili, you have to remember carefully. ”
"Yes, master."
"Well, go and help me catch a few babies back, as a teacher's magic skill, you can practice it right away."
