The captured people in the palace were worried. After a long time, Feng Baochen came in again. When everyone saw him coming back, they immediately greeted him.
"How is Fellow Daoist Feng?" the old practitioner asked.
Feng Baochen nodded and said: "Fortunately, I have convinced the Lord of Lingkong Mountain to agree to our request. He only has one condition."
"What conditions?" everyone asked.
Feng Baochen said: "He wants all the sects in the southern sects to recognize Lingkong Mountain as our superior sect. The sects of several of our arrested sects should come to Lingkong Mountain in person to plead guilty, and then officially join Lingkong Mountain. Belongs to the sect!"
"Okay!" The old practitioner nodded in agreement.
Another person looked at the old practitioner and said hesitantly: "Mr. Sun, the southern sects are not just ours, there are other neutral sects. Lingkong Mountain wants us to convince those neutral sects. This is not a simple matter.”
Mr. Xie next to him also nodded slightly and said: "This is indeed not a simple matter, but it is not impossible, it just takes some time. But if we do not agree to Lingkong Mountain's conditions, I will wait for the sect, I will wait for you The inheritance of the Demon Sword Palace will completely disappear in the Lingkong Mountains! You guys should have figured out which is more important and which is less important, and you don’t need me and Old Sun to remind you!"
Everyone fell silent, and Feng Baochen did not urge them. He knew that these people were not heroes. If they were really not afraid of death, they would not surrender.
Hard spirit and bones are never the choice for those who are greedy for life and afraid of death.
"good!"
As the first person agreed, voices of agreement sounded one after another.
"That's all."
"Alas, a thousand years of prestige has been ruined."
Feng Baichen smiled and comforted: "Fellow Taoists, the people of Lingkong Mountain have said that the sect is just a name. Lingkong Mountain will not care what we do. As long as we maintain respect for Lingkong Mountain, the rest will be done." Lingkong Mountain doesn't care at all, and even Lingkong Mountain lowered the tribute we paid."
When everyone heard this, they all looked at Feng Baichen, and the tribute was lowered, which was indeed a benefit.
Originally, as the dominant sect of Lingkong Mountain, everyone had to hand over 30% of the spiritual crystals and elixirs to Lingkong Mountain because of the evil reputation of the five Taoists.
Feng Baichen said: "Lingkong Mountain is only half-performed now. It is a symbolic payment. It is to warn the sects that Lingkong Mountain is a superior sect, not a sect of the same level as ours."
"Half completed!" Several people said in surprise.
Half percent is really satisfying, but only half percent is not worth mentioning at all.
"It seems that Lingkong Mountain has really changed its behavior, and the Lord of Lingkong Mountain is really a compassionate person." Mr. Xie smiled and was somewhat grateful to Chen Ke.
Feng Baochen only showed a smile. Other sects handed over half of it, but Daxue Sect handed over 30%. Feng Baochen didn't feel sorry for Lingjing at all, but was very happy.
Because the treatment for handing over 30% of the tribute is different from that for handing over half of the tribute. Turning over 30% means surrendering to Lingkong Mountain. The subordinate sects have independent rights, but if they are in danger, they can ask for help from Lingkong Mountain.
If you hand over half a percent, you can only use the name of Lingkong Mountain to scare people. Lingkong Mountain will not send any people to support the subordinate sects.
Chen Ke doesn't need to remind him of this kind of thing, these southern sects can understand it themselves.
Someone asked: "Fellow Daoist Feng, I wonder if the Western Sect can agree?"
Feng Baichen said: "Because of Zhang Zonglei's incident, the western sects were afraid that Lingkong Mountain would anger them, so they had already agreed in advance. Now they have gone down the mountain to persuade all the sects in the west to join Lingkong Mountain's subordinate order in accordance with Lingkong Mountain's orders."
"What, they are actually one step ahead of us. If not, I'll go quickly! We must complete Lingkong Mountain's instructions faster than the Western Sect." Someone reminded.
The southern sect was originally a small culprit, and the culprit was Zhang Zonglei who escaped, not their southern sect.
Originally, the southern sects only wanted to form an alliance with the western sects and establish mutual protection between the south and the west. However, Zhang Zonglei was arrogant and dared to challenge Lingkong Mountain because of his breakthrough to the realm of condensation.
Therefore, the fault lies with Zhang Zonglei!
So this group of people immediately agreed to Lingkong Mountain's request and led people down the mountain. As for ignoring Lingkong Mountain after returning, they would never dare to do so. Lingkong Mountain's strength had already made them understand that stubborn resistance would only lead to death.
On a peak of Lingkong Mountain, Chen Ke and Xuanxuan watched the people from the southern sect leave Lingkong Mountain.
Xuanxuan said: "Let them go like this. They have betrayed Lingkong Mountain and dare to come back to replace you, the treasonous person who is the Lord of Lingkong Mountain."
Chen Ke said: "There are endless people to kill, and they have no blood feud with me. They are just worried that Lingkong Mountain will destroy their sect, so they unite. Only Zhang Zonglei really dares to take action, and the others are just fighting. Just a supporter."
"But they took action!" Xuanxuan said with raised eyebrows. It was obvious that she was still very angry about this matter and wanted to kill these people from the Southern Sect to relieve her anger.
Chen Ke smiled, took Xuanxuan's little hand, put it in his palm, rubbed it gently, and comforted: "People from the sects in the west can forgive their sins, and of course the sects in the south can also forgive them. , it’s not their fault in this matter, but we can’t let them go so easily, we must teach them a lesson.”
"Kill half of them!" Xuanxuan's eyes lit up and the corners of his mouth curved up.
"You, don't think about fighting and killing, be careful that God will record your sins and punish you." Chen Ke touched Xuanxuan's hair and said helplessly.
"We demons don't care about heavenly punishment at all. If there is one, I won't sit still and wait to be captured!" Xuanxuan said.
Chen Ke hugged Xuanxuan into his arms and said softly: "But I don't want to see you get hurt. No one cared about you getting hurt before, but now they do!"
Xuanxuan's heart was shocked, and there was tenderness in her eyes. It seemed that no one else had ever cared about her like Chen Ke.
In the demon world, strength has always been respected, and life and death are determined by fate. Everything is done with fists. There was no one who would hold her and tell her not to get hurt. I would feel bad for her.
Xuanxuan also hugged Chen Ke and said, "Chen Ke, I love you so much."
"I love you too." Chen Ke said, "So before you do anything, you have to remember that I still care about you. If you can do some karmic things, do them as little as possible."
"Okay, I promise you." Xuanxuan said with happiness in his eyes.
The feeling of being cared about is really good, it makes people feel warm and gives them a sense of security.
Xuanxuan hugged Chen Ke, closed her eyes, and greedily breathed in the breath in Chen Ke's arms, this breath that belonged to him alone, this breath that made her addicted.
After a long time, Chen Ke let go of Xuanxuan, and Xuanxuan asked, "What is your lesson? I haven't said it yet."
Chen Ke said: "It's very simple, just let the sects in the south and west go back separately, pull all the other neutral sects under the control of Lingkong Mountain, and return to the peak state of the sects in the four directions when Master was here. . A high-level sect cannot fall once it reaches the top, otherwise it will be a disaster."
Once the upper sect falls, what will greet the upper sect will be crazy revenge from the lower sect. They didn't want to see this high-ranking sect come back to power and dominate them.
"Let's go. Suddenly I feel like there's nothing good to see. Let's go practice." Xuanxuan felt a special feeling in her heart at this moment, and the little hand holding Chen Ke softened into a ball.
Chen Ke looked at Xuanxuan's cheeks and said, "What are you doing?"
"You know what you're asking, let's go!" Xuanxuan's peach blossom eyes were full of endless water, as if Chen Ke was going to be submerged in the turbulent water, keeping him in his eyes forever.
"It's broad daylight... isn't it good?" Chen Ke smiled and walked a few steps faster than Xuanxuan.
Returning to Chen Ke's main hall, he was stopped by Xuanxuan, who pulled Chen Ke towards the first hall.
"What are you doing here?" Chen Ke looked confused.
Xuanxuan lay in Chen Ke's ear and said: "Xiaojiu is in the fifth hall. It doesn't seem good for us to practice during the day. Besides, don't you think it is more exciting to be in Ye Mingyue's hall."
Chen Ke also felt a sense of stealing after hearing this. He was not very interested in it, but Xuanxuan was particularly excited.
Chen Ke had no choice but to let Xuanxuan pull him in.
The barrier appears in the inner hall of the first hall.
The purple gown was thrown aside, and there was a torn middle coat next to it.
"I'm going to decide the winner with you today!"
"Xuanxuan, I'm not laughing at you. Every time you scream the craziest, you are the one who fails."
"Huh, little brother! My sister let you go before because she was worried about damaging your confidence as a man. Now, seeing my sister exhaust you, everything is in vain!"
"Witch, today I will suppress you for the sake of the monastic world!"
A silent battle slowly begins...
On a spring day, the sun shines brightly.
The clouds in the sky are swimming with the wind, and the spring scenery is bright. Only in spring can the scenery of the four seasons give people vitality and vitality.
As spring continues to warm the earth, various flowers bloom on the ground, as bright as red, as gorgeous as yellow, as delicate as green, and as charming as purple.
When the wind blows, the flowers keep swaying, welcoming the baptism of spring and feeling the vitality of the recovery of all things.
The young flowers on the mountain raised their heads vigorously in the sunshine, firmly rooted in the earth, waiting for a stunning bloom. After waiting for two seasons and crossing the cycle of a new year, we finally welcomed the spring sunshine. The flowers swayed in the wind and seemed to be smiling silently.
The light shines on the glazed tiles of the first hall.
In the room, Xuanxuan was lying on her stomach, not wanting to move her fingers. She was tired, a kind of tiredness that came from the inside out, but was extremely comfortable.
Her face was pink, her forehead was covered with sweat, and a strand of black hair stuck to her forehead: "Ye Mingyue will be furious if she knows, hahaha!"
