Looking at Heitu Immortal, and those two 'Left and Right Dharma Protectors', Yuwen Cuojin and Situ Ding, they simultaneously took a deep breath.
It's in the bag.
Leaving aside those two fifth-realm small fries, there were two Palm Profound realm combatants, one of whom was an Ancestral God incarnation.
This level of assistance far exceeded their expectations, not to mention the unfathomable Heitu Immortal, although it seemed he might not necessarily take action himself.
More than just in the bag, the two deputy sect masters couldn't even see how they could lose! If Heitu Immortal were willing to act, they'd dare to attack the Imperial Capital itself!
"We pay our respects to the Ancestral God. This disciple failed to welcome you from afar, please forgive this offense."
At Situ Ding's command, the strong members of the Summoning Demons Sect all rose to their feet.
The Dream Dao had no lineage inheritance; otherwise, such a powerful martial art would never have been lost within the Summoning Demons Sect. Qin Yuzhi's identity was beyond doubt.
"All rise. I have now entered the service of the Immortal. Address me as Left Dharma Protector."
Qin Yuzhi stood behind the young Li Immortal, giving a slight nod:
"During official matters, use the title."
"Yes."
Situ Ding and Yuwen Cuojin exchanged a glance, inwardly sighing with relief.
The former sect master had awakened, and was an Ancestral God incarnation at that. Considering seniority and origins, if Qin Yuzhi had any intention of returning to the Summoning Demons Sect, the current sect master's position would become awkward. Even if he didn't abdicate, he'd have an extra patriarch above him.
Fortunately, Qin Yuzhi's words contained not the slightest hint of wanting to meddle in the sect's authority.
However, what capability did this Heitu Immortal possess, to make Qin Yuzhi willingly serve him...?
Thinking of this, their expressions grew much more respectful.
Yuwen Cuojin cupped his hands and said, "Speaking of which, we are all one family. Once we obtain the Cycle of Life and Death Formation, the first one will be presented for the Immortal's inspection."
"Let's get it first. What is your plan?"
Li Mo seemed quite satisfied with their attitude.
"Besides that formation, we have another important matter."
Seeing they were still exchanging pleasantries, Mo Chaozong couldn't hold back any longer.
Situ Ding nodded, his expression turning serious:
"Immortal, on this trip, we also need to deal with Li Mo and Ying Bing. Geniuses like them, if not eliminated, who knows when they might grow to become a threat."
"So, Sect Master Mo and I will handle Li Mo and Ying Bing. The task of retrieving the formation will be entrusted to you. How does that sound?"
Li Mo: "?"
Looking at the grave expressions on the faces of the two Palm Profound experts and one Physical Law cultivator, a question mark slowly appeared above the young Li's head.
Wait, what had he done to deserve this?
"Immortal, you may not know. Our sect has an ancestral teaching: 'Even a lion must use full force to catch a rabbit.' Last year, a Genius at the Observing Spirit realm made an enemy of our Divine Sect. This old man personally went to exterminate his clan, shook the eggs until the yolks were scrambled, and even castrated the dogs."
"...That seems a bit excessive." Li Mo's mouth twitched slightly.
"You don't understand that bizarre kid. If you did, you wouldn't think so."
"Oh? Aside from being handsome and having exceptional swordsmanship, what other strong points does he have?"
The young Li Immortal frowned.
"His rate of advancement is terrifying, faster than even the Great Yu Martial Emperor in his day. His methods are bizarre, completely unlike someone from the Inner Scenery realm. He can traverse tens of thousands of miles in an instant, and can make his body shine with crystalline light, impervious even to Palm Profound attacks."
Situ Ding pulled out a small notebook, reading out the characteristics he had recorded.
Li Mo hadn't expected the Summoning Demons Sect to know so much about him.
"Even though we have higher realms, dealing with this kid requires a careful, plotted approach, winning through strategy. Fortunately, the kid probably isn't too bright. After all, those who play with hammers don't have much brains..."
Snap—
Mo Chaozong, hearing the sound, was startled:
"Immortal, why did your chopsticks break?"
"Heh... nothing. Just surprised that among the world's countless heroes, this youth truly has an unusual aura about him."
Li Mo put down the chopsticks, his tone profound:
"You mentioned winning through strategy. What plan have you thought of?"
"We plan to ambush him during his wedding night, but we don't have full confidence."
Luo Yexian sighed: "That kid's methods are too troublesome. If you're not careful, he just slips away. Back at Rotten Ke Mountain, he somehow managed to escape with his life."
Almost unanimously, everyone's gaze turned to the young Li Immortal.
It seemed they were waiting for him to make a decision.
This touched upon young Li's area of ignorance.
He didn't speak. Instead, the Left and Right Dharma Protectors began whispering to each other, discussing what seemed to be quite seriously.
"?"
Wait, are you two actually discussing this for real?
"How about drugging Li Mo?"
Shang Qinqing pondered.
"That kid has a special constitution, immune to all poisons." Situ Ding shook his head.
"Drugging doesn't necessarily mean poison."
Qin Yuzhi added.
Li Mo inwardly gave a thumbs-up to the person and the bird. The Best Actor of the Clear Abyss Sect showed no trace of acting.
This performance was just too...
"Aphrodisiacs."
"Pfft..." Qian Bufan almost sneezed into the hotpot.
"Hiss..."
The sound of sharp intakes of breath filled the room. The demonic sect members all leaned back slightly, a glint of wisdom flashing in their eyes.
"Right! Force-feed him aphrodisiacs, then have him consummate the marriage with the top beauty on the Flower Ranking. Even with all his tricks, how could he possibly handle that?"
"Who could withstand that? That kid would be busy until dawn, wouldn't he?"
"As expected of you, no wonder you are our ancestor. What a brilliant move of using force against force, using the Cold Fairy to restrain the Wife-Blessing Little Tyrant. This method is truly vicious."
"Jiejie, now Li Mo won't be able to fly away even if he grows wings!"
The demonic sect members' train of thought seemed to have been opened up, and they began discussing animatedly.
"I've wanted to do this for a long time." Shang Qinqing puffed out her chest proudly.
Qin Yuzhi: "Mie haha..."
Their expressions were utterly arrogant and overbearing, their laughter sinister and malicious, sending chills down the spines of the demonic sect members. They thought to themselves that these two must have been top-tier great demons before being taken in as Dharma Protectors by the Immortal.
Oh, one of them actually is their ancestor. Never mind then.
Li Mo began to suspect the two might not entirely be acting.
If they really went through with this, that would be disastrous!
Li Mo cleared his throat lightly:
"What about the aphrodisiac? Since he has a special constitution, there are fewer rare treasures that would work on him. This one is a gentleman of integrity and does not carry such curiosities on my person."
"..."
Hearing this, the room fell silent. The demonic sect members looked at each other.
Their gazes turned to Luo Yexian.
"Why are you all looking at me? You don't think I have some kind of problem, do you?" Luo Yexian's eyes widened.
A sect member whispered:
"Hall Master, every time you go to the brothel, you call for three girls, then start a mahjong game and clean them out."
"Yeah, last time the girl who accompanied me cursed you. She said she works herself to the bone with a client for just thirty taels, but after playing with you, the damnable one, all night, she ended up losing over two hundred taels. She'd never had to pay to work in her life."
"The madam said next time, if I don't bring you, she'll give me a discount."
No wonder the sect members thought Luo Yexian had issues in that department.
Otherwise, why would he do something even demonic sect members found excessive?
"I'm not sick! I'm just not interested in women, that's all!" Luo Yexian roared, his face red and neck thick.
Situ Ding waved his hand, stopping the commotion:
"Enough. We can go look for some. Although time is short, it's not necessarily impossible to find."
As soon as the words left his mouth.
"This item... there's no need to search for it anymore!"
Suddenly, a figure who had remained silent all this while stood up, his expression seeming to carry a kind of absolute confidence.
Another expert?
At a glance, Li Mo, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, felt his scalp tingle.
Old Huang, aren't you supposed to be a mole?
Why are you joining in on the excitement?!

spital. Good news: I've bound a system. Bad news: I'm still a baby. "Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river, do not bully the middle-aged for being poor — Divorce Comeback System." "Your marriage may have failed, but your luck in love has never run dry. Your childhood sweetheart, out of contact for twenty years, reappears.

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
