Chapter 145: The Birth of a Great Demon
Xue Yan’s journey to find the demon sect was not smooth. Although he had been used by the Righteous Path and developed into a tool by the Demon Path, the demon sect was very cautious about epting its true members.
After all, if I can nt spies in your ce, you can also nt spies in my ce.
They were all traitors, so who could look down on the other?
The demon sect people were the first to doubt his identity and motives.
The people in the branch did not have any intention of observing him. They wanted to capture him and interrogate him, but not only did Xue Yan not get caught, but he also used his Lightning-Absorbing Body to kill many people in the branch.
The conflict became more and more intense, and Xue Yan discovered that the branch was built on the ‘Eye of Wind and Lightning’.
ording to the records of the Lightning Maniption Art, this was one of the most suitable terrains for cultivation.
In addition, it was located in the mountains, so it was covered by dark clouds all year round, and often shed with lightning and thunder.
It was probably in pursuit of a very conspicuous sound and light effect to create a scene that should be the base of the viinous demon sect.
When one arrived at this ce, with one look, it was a gloomy and terrifying scene with dark clouds overhead, which was very atmospheric.
However, at this moment, these environmental factors had be a curse.
ording to Liu Yuan’s teachings, Xue Yan used the guerri tactics of kiting and several signals that weremonly used by the demon sect to confuse the other party, luring the group of demon sect people who were chasing him away.
Although the process could be said to be dangerous and exciting, in about three days, Xue Yan’s life was on the line several times.
But surprisingly, Xue Yan felt more and more excited.
The feeling of gaining new insights between life and death or defeating an opponent was simply addictive.
In the end, Xue Yan dragged his heavily injured body inside of the demon cult’s sub-altar.
By the time the people from the demon sect came to find him, he had already started to draw lightning in the Eye of Wind and Lightning!
It was all thanks to the pill that Liu Yuan had given him that he was able to hold on until that point. Otherwise, he would have died countless times in the past three days.
As a result, the sky changed color. After the lightning and thunder, the demon sect’s people also changed their expressions, and more than half of the pursuers were killed or injured.
Of course, in the end, the demon cult elder ‘Thousand-Hand Demon Eye’ Pei She, who was in charge of this ce, appeared and stretched out his hand to suppress the thunderclouds in the sky. Only then did the matter calm down.
However, after Xue Yan was caught, he still said spouted a load of nonsense. He said stuff like he was determined to join the demon sect, and that it was all the demon sect’s fault for going too far, that the Demon Path cultivators were no different from the Righteous Path cultivators. Moreover, a group of people could not even catch him, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, and that they were all good-for-nothing trash.
When Pei She heard this, he found it interesting and actuallyughed out loud. He immediately covered the face of the demon sect disciple who was reporting on Xue Yan’s actions these past few days.
“Altar Master, please spare me! Please… Mmmm!!”
Creak…!
A sound that made one’s teeth ache rang out. Pei She pinched the disciple’s cheeks so hard that the veins on his hands popped out. Something happened in his palm, and he blocked the disciple’s words.
After a series of squeaking sounds, Pei She let go of his hand and that disciple fell to the ground.
The entire face had disappeared, leaving only an empty skull, which made people shiver.
“You’re really useless.”
Pei Sheughed coldly and looked at Xue Yan, who had fainted from his injuries. He ordered people to clean up the mess and investigate his background.
After Xue Yan fainted, he thought that Senior Liu was right. The branch elders here loved interesting changes and their unruly characters.
Everything was just as Senior Liu had said! Divine foresight!
The young man’s admiration for Liu Yuan grew even stronger. After this incident, his admiration risen to a fanatical level.
When Xue Yan woke up and felt that his injuries had already healed, the first demon cult disciple he saw handed him a demon cult robe and congratted him for bing a branch altar Guardian.
Xue Yan was stunned for a moment. After he asked the servant to leave, he picked up the clothes and put them on. Looking at the young man in the mirror, who had a calm and steady posture, he felt that the past ten days and life and death seemed to be a lifetime away. He shook his head andughed at himself that this was just the beginning.
Without Senior Liu’s guidance, he would not even be able to enter the demon sect.
He was still far from good enough!
This was only the first step into the demon sect. There was still a long way to go.
Pei She was extremely satisfied with his new Guardian.
Even though his current level of cultivation was still very low, he had managed to fool around with more than half of the branch, and he also had a cultivation technique that could cause thunderclouds with power that was even close to Lightning Tribtion. His talent and future were limitless.
And there was no problem with his identity.
The demon sect’s investigation efficiency was also very high. Very quickly, they discovered that there was indeed an elder undercover at Water Moon Dock who was exposed. There was also a downline who had been trained and developed. However, because of a person called Liu Yuan, the two of them did not have a good end.
Xue Yan had indeed yed the role of being used by both sides, and because of this, he had enough reason to cast aside the Righteous Path.
Previously, he had ignored him and humiliated him in every way possible. Later, when the situation changed and he became stronger, he immediately ttered him. How hypocritical!
As for Liu Yuan’s persuasion, Xue Yan did not hide it. However, when he faced the people from the demon sect, he said that he coveted their cultivation techniques and cooperated with them for the sake of benefits. When he got the benefits, he immediately left.
Pei She asked him, “This Liu Yuan is considered to be your benefactor, but do you really not feel any gratitude?”
Xue Yan’s reason was that he had put in a lot of effort, but Liu Yuan was the only one who benefited in the end. As for him, some people even said that he was only relying on Liu Yuan.
This guy just wanted to use him as a foil to show off his wisdom and martial prowess. He was really hateful.
Xue Yan’s greed and hatred for the Righteous greatly pleased ‘Thousand-Hand Demon Eye’ Pei She.
However, he did not immediately hand over the matters of the branch to Xue Yan. Instead, he gave him some missions, which he said were to make contributions to the sacred cult.
Most of them were about the destruction of the Righteous sects and the dirty acts of blood sacrifice.
Xue Yan had some hesitation and reluctance, but Senior Liu had told him that nothing was perfect. If he wanted to be an undercover agent, he had to be prepared to enter the darkness with his hands stained with blood.
Perhaps he could make an indelible contribution to justice in the future, but his sins would not be offset by this.
If he died one day, people would only remember the evil side of him and not know everything he had done for this cause.
But what was he doing this for?
It was for the morality in his heart, for a better future.
But even after experiencing countless difficulties and obstacles, Xue Yan’s heart still had a firm belief.
“Senior, I will definitely not let you down! I will destroy the demon sect from the inside!”
That day, when he put on the robes of the demon sect’s Guardian and stepped out of the door, he had already made up his mind that he would not turn back or retreat.
