After Favorability Is Maxed

270 It’s Not Easy for Guardian Zhu

Netherworld choked for a moment, and she choked on the anger in her heart. She felt terrible, and in the end, she could only blame Liu Yuan for her own mistake.

If he had not provoked her first, why would she make such a stupid mistake?

The way Netherworld stared at Liu Yuan fully expressed her thoughts.

However, Liu Yuan was speechless and helpless. It felt like he was looking at a cat that was chasing after its tail and biting it. She thought that she had caught the prey, but she didn’t expect that she was the one in pain. That kind of shocked and confused expression was really funny.

Indeed, Liu Yuan almost laughed out loud. If not for the fact that he had to control his expression in front of Su Lanfeng, he would have laughed out loud.

!!

This Mansion Master who shared souls with Mei Sheng seemed to be quite interesting.

After the brutal impression of killing people as soon as they came up was removed, the similarity between Netherworld and Mei Sheng also emerged – they were very good at tricking themselves.

This girl seemed to have a very ‘stupid and cute’ side, and at this moment, she seemed even more naive than Chuichui.

At the very least… the proud Chuichui had always felt that she was the world’s one and only Scarlet Mist Flowing Scaled Wrym with noble status. She would praise herself every day, so how could he bear to scold her?

Facing such a cute and stupid Mansion Master, Liu Yuan’s desire for revenge was greatly reduced. He shrugged his shoulders and continued to speak in a dark tone to Su Lanfeng, “Hurry up and thank the Mansion Master and the Holy Messenger for showing mercy.”

Su Lanfeng seemed to have just woken up from a dream as she hurriedly kowtowed in thanks. The despair in her heart instantly turned into hope as she felt a sense of excitement that was like a roller coaster ride. At the same time, she felt that her status might rise greatly in the future.

From a spy to an emissary of communication between the two sides, this change in identity was worth celebrating.

Thinking of what the man in front of her had said earlier, which seemed to be a ‘reminder’, she hesitated for a moment and knelt down to Liu Yuan. “Many thanks, Guardian Zhu.”

She was quite tactful and was better at judging the situation than the Mansion Master… Liu Yuan teased her with a smile and continued to fool her, “What you mean is that you’ve agreed to cooperate with Bi Luo Mansion. We’ll take advantage of the Jade Mirage Sect’s internal strife and the loss of combat strength to capture them all.”

As he spoke, he glanced at Zhiying. The girl’s face was tense, but she calmly nodded and knocked on the table.

Even though Netherworld’s face was unsightly under the mask, she could only snort disdainfully.

Su Lanfeng hesitated. “However, the higher-ups told us to bide our time. The branch over there has already attacked the Jade Mirage Sect. With the Poison Sect elders like ‘Ten Thousand Maple Rivers’ helping out, I’m sure that the Jade Mirage Sect is currently in a terrible state. The strength of the branch at the Wuyin Cliff is limited. I’m afraid they won’t be able to help much.”

In her opinion, Zhu Ren was someone close to the Lord Netherworld, so he probably did not know much about the situation of the demonic sect’s branch, Wuyin Cliff. Therefore, she immediately explained the power composition of Wuyin Cliff.

As for the fact that Bi Luo Mansion wanted to cooperate with Luo Shengtian, it was not a very surprising thing. In the eyes of the Righteous Path, evil sects and demonic sects were all a nest of snakes and rats. On the contrary, they should bring out the best in each other.

Thinking about it carefully, it was normal for them to discuss how to wipe out the Jade Mirage Sect and the Orthodox Dao at this time.

The only thing that confused Su Lanfeng was that the Bi Luo Mansion was still cooperating with the Jade Mirage Sect. It was against the Bi Luo Mansion’s usual principles to sell her out.

As an organization that worked for others, the Bi Luo Mansion naturally had to be based on its own credibility. Although it had a bad reputation among the Orthodox sects because it accepted tasks without any restrictions. The fact that even the Jade Mirage Sect was now working with Bi Luo Mansion was a testament to the mansion’s credibility.

However, perhaps the higher-ups considered the fact that the Jade Mirage Sect would not dare to disclose their relationship with the evil sects even if they were backhanded, or perhaps they were confident that the Jade Mirage Sect would be reduced to dust in history after this deal was done.

However, this was the consideration of the higher-ups. Now that the mysterious Netherworld Mansion Master was right in front of her, she was just a small spy who had just been spared. If she raised her doubts again, wouldn’t she be courting death?

However, Su Lanfeng’s words were already filled with the intent of rebuttal and offense. Furthermore, she had subconsciously used her identity as a Deputy Altar Master of the demonic sect, which had greatly angered Netherworld.

“What?” the Master of Bi Luo Mansion asked coldly. “The days in the demonic sect were too comfortable, so now, you’re subconsciously thinking of joining them? I asked you to contact the people and forces of the mansion in the vicinity, not tp tjoml for the demonic sect, upi idiot!”

Su Lanfeng’s face turned pale as she tried to calm herself down to save her own life. She thought to herself, ‘This time, the Mansion Master is really meeting with the Holy Messenger in secret. She only brought one Guardian with her. She probably has to rely on me to pass on the news to the lower levels.’

‘The Mansion Master is indeed as vicious and brutal as the rumors say. It must be tough for Guardian Zhu…’

On the other side, Liu Yuan was shocked by the fact that the demonic sect had attacked the Jade Mirage Sect. He thought that it was not in the original plot, but he quickly realized that it was most likely related to Pihuan Luo.

“Who gave the order?” Liu Yuan asked.

Su Lanfeng looked at Zhiying and lowered her head, “It’s said that the Holy Maiden has issued a secret order… It’s about that Liu Yuan, who has risen to fame recently. It concerns the rise and fall of Luo Shengtian. At any time, the people of the sect must put his life first and do their best to help him succeed.”

As expected of the demonic sect…

Liu Yuan found that even though he had only met Pihuan Luo once at the beginning, he could still feel the love from her. From Zhiying who had always been by his side, to being helped by her when he was in trouble.

The complicated emotions in his heart disappeared in a flash. He said, “Seeing the Holy Messenger is like seeing the Holy Maiden. If it wasn’t for the Sect Master’s order, I don’t think there’s any other order that can overshadow the Holy Messenger, right?”

Su Lanfeng could only agree.

Liu Yuan then said slowly, “Furthermore, I’m not asking you to help the other side. You’re just courting death with your current strength. The most important thing now is another matter. With the incident with the Jade Mirage Sect, all the forces are paying attention to it. We can take the opportunity to get what we want.”

He looked at Su Lanfeng and said, “For example, the Nirvana Secret Realm that has been lost for so many years…”

Su Lanfeng could only feel the pressure from his gaze and could not help but exclaim, “A phoenix?!”

“That’s right,” said Zhiying cooperatively.

Liu Yuan did not know whether to laugh or cry at his daughter’s perfunctory performance. Fortunately, she’s the Holy Messenger, otherwise, such simple acting would be exposed in minutes.

Netherworld watched as Liu Yuan very naturally instructed her subordinate with things like ‘The Mansion Master already knows the location of the Nirvana Secret Realm. This cooperation with the Jade Mirage Sect is just to create chaos so that we can act in secret’… And other nonsense.

When Su Lanfeng left the room respectfully, she represented a handwritten order to ‘Find the Nirvana Secret Realm’ and Netherworld’s token.

In the room, Netherworld was expressionless. She really did not expect Liu Yuan to be so bold as to ‘use Netherworld’s name’ to send people to find the Nirvana Secret Realm.

But what surprised her even more was that Liu Yuan was so calm and confident when he marked out the general area, as if he already knew where the Nirvana Secret Realm was.
