Imperial Demon Slayer Division

While the two were talking, Zhan Ying hurried in, clasped his fists and bowed to Gu Yan, then said solemnly:

"Your Highness, something serious has happened."

After hearing Zhan Ying's words, Gu Yan paused for a moment while drinking tea and asked:

"what happened?"

"News just came in that Dao Sect has appointed a young leader."

After Zhan Ying finished speaking, Gu Yan shook his head helplessly and said

"Appoint a young patriarch, then appoint a young patriarch. I thought Dao Zun was also transcendent."

Mo Ziyuan smiled slightly and said

"Your Highness may not know that Dao Sect, like the Holy Land, has not appointed a successor since ascending to the upper realm. But now it has suddenly appointed a young sect leader, so the War Eagle Commander was so solemn just now."

War Eagle nodded and said

"Yes, Dao Sect was so low-key in the past few years, but now it has suddenly announced to the world that it has appointed a new young leader, and will hold a grand ceremony to celebrate next year. I don't know if this is a good thing for the human race in the world."

"Oh, by the way, Your Highness, I heard that this Dao Sect's Young Master also came from the lower realms, and it seems that he brought someone with him when he came."

When Gu Yan heard Zhan Ying's words, a gentle smile appeared on his lips and he asked

"Is the Dao Sect's young master surnamed Chen and given the name Guixu?"

Zhan Ying was shocked when he saw Gu Yan directly called out the name of the Dao Sect's young master.

"Your Highness, how did you know this? Did Ding Changqing tell you?"

Mo Ziyuan, who was sitting opposite Gu Yan, was quick-witted and immediately understood the whole story. With shock in his eyes, he said:

"Brother Ding went out on a mission after returning to the Holy Land. It's impossible that this is what Brother Ding said."

"That young master came from the lower realm, and your highness also came from the lower realm. Ziyuan dares to guess that your highness and that young master knew each other in the lower realm."

Hearing Mo Ziyuan's speculation, Gu Yan chuckled and said

"The one who understands me is Ziyuan"

"That's right. I have known Taoist Chen for many years and we are close friends. I went to see him before he ascended to the upper realm. At that time, he was receiving the Taoist inheritance, so I didn't disturb him."

"As for the person he brought with him, he should be the head of the sect that Taoist Chen belonged to when he was in the lower world, Pure Yang Taoist Qinghao."

Click!

The teacup in Mo Ziyuan's hand suddenly fell to the ground. His face was filled with shock, and his jaw almost dropped to the ground.

Originally, he guessed that the two of them just knew each other, but he didn't expect that they had such a good relationship. So, although Gu Yan had just ascended to the realm not long ago, the power behind him was already so terrifying and abnormal.

Apart from the hidden Heavenly Palace, the human race has a total of five top forces, the Wanfa Holy Land, Dao Sect, Qingkongtian, Huangji Dongtian, and Changshengjie. Among these five top forces, only Gu Yan has two people standing behind him.

If Mo Ziyuan knew that Gu Yan was also acquainted with Cui Jue, the judge in the Heavenly Palace, he would be so shocked.

Thinking of this, Mo Ziyuan couldn't help but feel lucky. Fortunately, he knew the time and came to surrender early. If he had tried to compete for the position of the Holy Son without knowing his own strength, he would have gone to bed with a head but not a head.

Even though he was a true disciple and was treated as a guest of honor wherever he went in the outside world, in Gu Yan's eyes, he was no different from an ordinary person and could be crushed to death at any time.

Gu Yan looked at Mo Ziyuan, who was shocked, with a teasing smile on his face, and said

"What's wrong, Ziyuan? Is there something wrong with the internal Qi flow?"

Mo Ziyuan then noticed his situation and quickly stood up and bowed, then used his true energy to collect the tea, tea leaves and teacup fragments on the ground into his space ring.

"Ziyuan just seemed to see His Highness standing at the top of the upper realm ten thousand years later."

Mo Ziyuan was right. As long as Gu Yan didn't die young, he would definitely be at the top of the upper world in the future.

"Ziyuan may not know that the tea we drank just now was grown by the grandfather of the young master of Dao Sect."

Gu Yan's words stunned Mo Ziyuan who was about to sit down.

"Your Highness, you are not joking..."

"Your Highness, Ziyuan wants tea again now, can you still give it to him?"

......

After the two chatted for a while, Mo Ziyuan took his leave. Although he was no longer competing for the position of the Holy Son, he still had to work hard on his cultivation.

After Mo Ziyuan left, Gu Yan took out the Nine-Star Bodhi Fruit, played with it for a while, and then threw it to Zhan Ying, saying

"Let someone carefully examine this fruit to see if there is anything else inside."

After Zhan Ying took the Nine-Star Bodhi Fruit, he looked at Gu Yan with a complicated expression, nodded, and walked out.

This Saint Son was cunning and extremely cautious, while Zhan Ying was straightforward and didn't like conspiracies. Following Gu Yan, he sincerely felt a little tired.

Gu Yan noticed the helpless look on Zhan Ying's face, shook his head and sighed.

"Alas, a man as deep-minded as Mo Ziyuan suddenly came to me to surrender, how could I not be on guard?"

"If you had walked the path I have walked, you would understand why I am so careful. If I had not been more careful over the years, I would have died in some corner of the netherworld, and no one would have collected my rotten body."

At this moment, Gu Yan thought of Lin Wu who was in Yezhou in the lower world. He was better. No matter his character or temper, he was very compatible with Gu Yan.

"It seems that I have to go back after the Holy Son Ceremony."

......

In the afternoon, Zhan Ying came back and placed the Nine-Star Bodhi Fruit on the table next to Gu Yan, saying

"This fruit is very clean. Mo Ziyuan did not use any tricks to get it."

Gu Yan nodded gently, put the Nine-Star Bodhi Fruit back into the space ring, then formed a seal with both hands, and a stream of purple air flew out of the seal and floated towards where Mo Ziyuan was.

Zhan Ying looked at the purple air flying away, scratched his head, and asked

"Your Highness, what is this?"

"The method to resolve the Midnight Soul-Breaking Gu"

"Midnight Soul-Breaking Gu?"

Gu Yan nodded slightly and said

"Mo Ziyuan came to give me the Nine-Star Bodhi Fruit. I don't know if he has bad intentions or if he really wants to surrender, so I put a poison in his tea to keep it for later use. If something happens, I can take the initiative."

Hearing Gu Yan's words, Zhan Ying felt a sense of powerlessness. If it weren't for Gu Yan's noble status, Zhan Ying would definitely point his middle finger at Gu Yan and then say, "You have a dirty heart."

"Your Highness, a small force has come from outside the Holy Land. It is called Xuan Gui Men. The disciples in the sect are very good at controlling corpses. Its leader is at the peak of the Sainthood Realm and wants to join you."

Gu Yan raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard Zhan Ying's words and asked

"A sect that is good at refining corpses came to me on its own initiative? Are they so bold? Doesn't they know that I am a demon slayer in the lower realm?"

"Bring him here. I want to see who has such courage."

War Eagle clasped his hands together

"Your Highness, please wait a moment. I will bring him over for you to examine."
