Chapter 500: Chapter 256: Feng Jue’s Allegiance, Twin Corpses Tier Two Peak
A moment later.
The three exchanged glances, and after confirming everything was in order, they swiftly fled. Even after entering the Celestial Demon Sea, they remained unsettled.
The initial plan to immediately report the decision to the Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect was quickly shelved, as it was uncertain whether the sect could help them deal with the other party. However, it seemed that Master Du wouldn’t find it difficult to kill them.
What enemy is the most terrifying?
One that comes and goes without a trace.
Otherwise, how could the Hidden Kill Sect, with only a handful of members, become one of the top three sects, standing on par with Yin Kui and Jue Ying, which boast millions of disciples and millennia of heritage?
"We must meet with our superior immediately and request Fellow Daoist Yin Yang San Yuan to use fate techniques for divination," Mo Palace hurriedly suggested, and then glanced at the Sect Leader of Jue Ying Sect beside him. "The matter of the Evil Yin Spiritual Medicine is in your hands."
The Sect Leader of Jue Ying Sect nodded, "Rest assured, once I meet with the Sect Leader, I will take care of it right away and resolve it within half a month."
"The sooner the better, lest he finds another reason to extort us," Mo Palace added after a moment of contemplation.
The two nodded.
They deeply agreed.
...
Meanwhile.
Feng Jue had returned to Lengxi Mountain and ordered his servants not to see anyone. His first priority was still to meet with Wen Jiu.
"Brother Han."
Outside the cave residence.
Feng Jue raised his hand in salute.
Wen Jiu stepped out leisurely from the cave, "Actually, Brother Feng, you don’t need to come to see me the first thing every time."
"It’s what I should do." Feng Jue saluted once more, "If not for Brother Han’s help today, it definitely wouldn’t have gone so smoothly. Master Pei has already allowed me entry into the Dark Evil God’s Cave Heaven; Feng Mou will not forget Brother Han’s commission."
He said this.
Feng Jue unexpectedly made a Heart Demon Oath on the spot to show his determination.
Wen Jiu did not stop him, nor did he say much, "I trust Brother Feng’s ability to handle matters. If there are any changes, I will also inform Brother Feng at the earliest opportunity to minimize the risks and dangers of Brother Feng’s journey."
"Thank you, Brother Han." Feng Jue gratefully began, hesitated before finally asking, "Brother Han, what is your relationship with Master Du? To be honest, I noticed a slight similarity in the aura of that senior and Brother Han... so I couldn’t help but be curious."
"About Master Du, Brother Feng doesn’t need to concern yourself with my relationship with him, just know that if what you’re doing for me gets discovered by Master Pei, Master Du will certainly support you."
In Wen Jiu’s view, how could Feng Jue have the ability to detect the familiar presence of East Spring Undying Bone Corpse Qi? It was most likely due to the soul within him. Therefore, Wen Jiu offered no explanation nor fabricated an identity for Master Du. He chose to keep it as a mystery, persuading the soul within and motivating Feng Jue to work diligently.
"Understood." Feng Jue suddenly realized, convinced in his heart that Han Li did not originate from the Celestial Demon Sea.
At that moment.
Feng Jue’s gaze became especially determined, and the thoughts he had begun preparing as he arrived poured out.
He desperately needed a backer.
He needed it in the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks.
He would also need it after entering the Hundred Floating Domains.
Master Du was the immediate and best choice, primarily because of his deep connection with Han Li.
"Brother Han, could you pass a message to Master Du for me? If there’s anything he needs from Feng Jue, he can just let me know."
Upon hearing these words, Wen Jiu was somewhat surprised by Feng Jue’s courage and boldness.
Even if Feng Jue hadn’t said it, Wen Jiu had the same idea, though he had not wanted to rush it. But since Feng Jue had already brought it up, he certainly would not ignore it.
"Brother Feng, to be honest, I have already introduced you to Master Du. After this battle, Master Du is quite pleased with you and has given his word; if you make a Heart Demon Oath now pledging loyalty for a millennium, you will be admitted to the Longevity Celestial Ruins."
After finishing his sentence.
Wen Jiu gradually revealed the aura of his late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivation, not for anything else but to make the fictional force of the Longevity Celestial Ruins seem more real. What better proof of all this than the rapid rise in cultivation?
Feng Jue’s expression suddenly froze.
The soul within him was equally speechless.
Late-stage Foundation Establishment!
"Brother Han..." Feng Jue knew better than anyone when Han Li had entered the Foundation Establishment, so he understood all the astonishment.
"Master Du already promised that if you make a Heart Demon Oath, when you reach Core Formation, the Longevity Celestial Ruins will not only protect you during the process but will also support you in establishing a vast Golden Core influence upon your achievement. Whether it’s in the Divine Fall Mountain Range or the Hundred Floating Domains!"
Wen Jiu continued, "By then, Brother Feng will no longer need to live under anyone’s roof. Moreover, the Longevity Celestial Ruins will not restrict you from doing anything, nor will it bind you or seize that opportunity within you. Because the Longevity Celestial Ruins have no interest in such things. The tragedy of the Moon Extreme Sect will never repeat."
After saying all this, Wen Jiu fell silent, quietly waiting for Feng Jue’s response, whether he nodded or not. Wen Jiu didn’t mind. If Feng Jue agreed, then he would support him, making him his "white glove."
As for why it was limited to a millennium.
In fact, the millennium was the time Wen Jiu gave himself. After a thousand years, he should no longer need Feng Jue with his strength.
Wherever Feng Jue decided to go, it wouldn’t matter.
"I trust Brother Han!" When Wen Jiu mentioned the opportunity within, Feng Jue felt a sudden jolt, and then without hesitation, nodded.
The soul within him was also greatly astonished, for it had never heard of any Longevity Celestial Ruins, so Feng Jue vaguely felt this was a great opportunity.
In the next moment.
Feng Jue immediately made a millennium-long Heart Demon Oath but added a clause that if the Longevity Celestial Ruins were to act against the Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks, he would instantly withdraw.
In this regard, Wen Jiu was unconcerned, "Brother Feng, should you encounter any obstacles or difficult matters in the future, feel free to approach me. However, I hope Brother Feng considers some matters carefully; the Longevity Celestial Ruins do not need incompetence."
