Chapter 11 Save Some Dignity for Your Senior Brother
Gu Min nodded his head and said in a deep voice, “So it is a true elite disciple. Forgive this old man for being blind just now. May I ask if it is the daughter of Ning Master, Wide Ocean Pearl Su Feng?”
Su Feng looked at Gu Min with some surprise. She did not expect that this person in the secular world would know about her. She nodded and said, “I am under the orders of my father to come and assist you two junior brothers.”
As she said this, she did not even look at Cao Dong's corpse on the ground.
Mao Li, who was beside her, smiled and fought with a smile on his face. He said in a frightened tone, “Yes... Senior Sister Ning lowered her head and came to supervise our mission. I, I will take Senior Brother Yue in first. Uh, clean it up.”
He squatted down and picked up Cao Dong's corpse. Cold sweat dripped down from his forehead. It could be seen that he was quite frightened.
As for the matter of betraying the sect... Didn't you see that Cao Dong was still lying on the ground?
As long as nothing happened.
“Wait.”
However, Guo Fan reached out his hand and stopped Mao Li from leaving.
A young man around fifteen or sixteen years old raised his head, as if he didn't dare look at Guo Fan, who had just casually killed someone. He stole a glance at Su Feng, who was still indifferent, and smiled embarrassedly. He said submissively, “This Senior Guo, do you have any other instructions?”
Mao Li called Senior Guo because of Guo Fan's cultivation base. He was only at the Qi Cultivation Stage, so it would not be a problem to call him senior Guo Fan, who was at the Foundation Establishing Stage.
His timid look and his round face, as well as his respectful tone, made people not be on guard.
Guo Fan looked at his face and thought to himself, This spy from the Devil Cult is really good at acting.
At least, it was much better than Student Liu's rigid and rigid performance in front of Gu Yaling.
That's right, it was mentioned before that behind the Wide Ocean Sect, there was also a devil cult that was secretly controlled.
And Mao Li was precisely the scout that the devil cult sent to Frost River Manor to scout.
As for how he managed to sneak in, it was naturally because the upper echelons of the Wide Ocean Sect had been infiltrated as well.
Guo Fan pointed at Cao Dong's corpse and said, “No instructions, but Cao Dong is good at using poison, so it is inevitable that there are some poisonous things hidden on his body. Ordinary. Bury will definitely cause the poisonous things to spread out and harm the nearby mortals. You are his fellow disciple, ___ said, pointing at ___'s corpse. You should know that.”
Mao Li's eyes flickered and he nodded.” I know, I know... I will carefully search Senior Brother Yue's body to see if there are any poison on him. ”
Guo Fan said in a serious manner, “Even if a person dies, he still needs to search his body. How can we Immortal Cultivators do such an insulting thing?”
Mao Li looked at his righteous face and said hesitantly, “This... Then what should we do?”
Guo Fan sighed. “Let's just cremate it.”
... “”
“...”
The hall was silent.
What the f * ck! Isn't it even more insulting to search your body and burn your corpse with fire? Ah?
His gaze fell upon Guo Fan as if he had seen a ghost.
Mao Li opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but Guo Fan reached out and patted his shoulder.
Looking at each other, Guo Fan said earnestly, “We Immortal cultivators should have compassion for mortals. Find a secluded place and save face for your senior brother.”
Looking at the crowd of mortals around him, Mao Li had no choice but to hold back his words. He said with difficulty, “Alright...”
Mao Li's face was full of tears. Cao Dong, who was at the eighth level of Foundation Establishment, could naturally look down on these mortals, but he was only at the eighth level of Qi Refinement (at least on the surface). If he was not careful, he could even be beaten by Gu Yaling, who was at the seventh level of Pace Stimulating.
In this world, the early stages of martial arts could suppress cultivators, but after the Foundation Establishing Stage, the situation was completely reversed.
Guo Fan withdrew his hand. “Then you can go.”
Mao Li stood up and carried the corpse out of the hall. He had just reached the door.
Guo Fan waved his sleeve and the Spiritual Energy condensed into a butterfly. It danced in the air and landed on Mao Li's shoulder. He said, “This spirit butterfly can prevent any living poisonous things from exploding on Cao Dong's body. It will help you block an attack. Remember to deal with it properly.”
“Illusion Spirit Technique!”
Mao Li turned his head to look at his shoulder, and his pupils suddenly shrank.
On the back of the wings of the spirit butterfly, a faint golden pattern could be seen.
It was a ring-shaped Ouroboros, and in the middle was a ghost face surrounded by flames!
This was the symbol of the Holy Cult!
Mao Li's figure paused, then he quickened his pace and walked out of the door.
Guo Fan looked at Mao Li's back as he left.
Mao Li was the biggest devil religion in the south of Middle Continent - “Luo Shengtian” had sent a spy to the Wide Ocean Sect.
This devil sect believed in an eight-armed god named “Luo Tian,” and believed that he would one day descend into the world and bring destruction and new life.
The specific form was reincarnation.
Therefore, they had been searching for the whereabouts of “Luo Tian.”
Of course, at the same time, they also did some part-time jobs of slaughtering sacrifices and developing believers.
This was a very subtle hint in the storyline, but in the eyes of the players who used magnifying glasses to play games, there was nothing they could hide.
After the players had investigated the Frost River Manor and found out about the end of the engagement, they would naturally fight with Cao Dong. If they defeated him, Mao Li would also escape with Cao Dong.
But not long after, Cao Dong would appear again.
In the form of a puppet.
At this time, the players would check Cao Dong's condition again and it would show that he was a devil puppet. The following plot also showed that Mao Li had refined Cao Dong's corpse into a corpse puppet.
That's right, this was Mao Li's true combat technique. Although his cultivation base was low, it was a rare encounter where he had a thick soul constitution. It was enough for him to spare some effort to control a puppet with a much higher cultivation base than himself.
The mess in the hall was gradually cleaned up.
Gu Min sat at the head of the table and made an inviting gesture with his hand. “Please take a seat, both of you.”
Gu Yaling originally wanted to pull Guo Fan to sit beside her, but Guo Fan shook his head. After all, it was not proper etiquette. The girl could only puff her cheeks and obediently let go of his hand.
Guo Fan sat beside Su Feng and heard Su Feng's surprised voice transmission. “Why are you so cautious?”
It was obviously referring to how to deal with Cao Dong's corpse.
Guo Fan's expression remained unchanged. He replied via voice transmission, “I just found out that Cao Dong is a spy of the Devil Cult. He might have left some tricks behind. Send the information to the Devil Cult... Rong Rong, I'm afraid that the Devil Cult is involved in the engagement. ”
Fortunately, he was able to send a Foundation Establishing Stage sound transmission through the air.
Su Feng's finger on the armrest moved slightly, then she said without batting an eyelid, “Manor Master Gu, this matter is Cao Dong's own fault, but since we have seen blood, let's delay the date of the marriage.”
Gu Min nodded, “If that's the case, I will have to trouble the two envoys to stay in my manor for a while.”
His gaze paused on Guo Fan for a while, then coughed twice and added, “And Mr. Xiaobo, if you have been neglectful before, I hope you can understand. From today onwards, Sir will be an honored guest of my manor.”
Guo Fan shook his head. “I was seriously injured before, so I have no way to cultivate. It is already very good that I am able to live as a freeloader. I will not blame you.”
Su Feng said, “I am fine too. But I have a small request.”
Gu Min coughed twice and raised his hand. “This old man is terrified. I will try my best to satisfy it.”
“Where does he live?”
Su Feng tilted her head to look at Guo Fan. Under the hazy white veil, her eyes seemed to be filled with splendor. “I want to live with him.”
