Li San’s teeth were bloodstained, revealing a neurotic smile.
Just then, footsteps sounded, and an Enforcent Leader walked over, saying coldly: "al ti."
He placed a rough wooden tray on the ground and pushed it into the cell.
On the tray was a porcelain bowl, containing so kind of inedible porridge.
After serving the al, the Enforcent Leader glanced at Li San and turned to leave.
Li San lay on the ground, motionless, as if waiting for death to descend in the darkness.
For a Demon Cultivator like him, entering the Taoist Prison only ant death.
With a heart full of despair, a very faint, yet familiar vibration reached his ears.
"Is that... Sect Token?"
Li San’s vacant eyes showed a glimr of spirit, sowhat incredulous.
He struggled to crawl on the ground, inch by inch, toward the source of the sound in the darkness.
Finally, he reached the tray and pulled a token from the bottom of the porcelain bowl.
This token was so familiar to him; it had been with him since he entered the Sect, the Demon Sect Token.
When he was thrown into the Taoist Prison by that damn Gu-nad Supervisor of the Taoist Court, this Demon Sect Token was also confiscated.
But now, soone had returned it to him?
Li San’s heart trembled, using his remaining weak Divine Sense, he perceived the words within the token:
"All suffering is a test for you."
"As long as you’re loyal enough, you won’t die."
"Henceforth, in the Qian Learning State Boundary, changes are brewing, you must lie low in the Taoist Prison and work for . When the ti is right, I will give you guidance."
"This is a heavy responsibility; only those of resolute mind and proven loyalty can undertake it..."
Li San’s pupils gradually dilated, his body trembled, and suddenly endless strength surged within him. Monts later, his expression changed, muttering:
"No, no..."
"He’s deceiving , he’s already deceived once, he’s still deceiving now..."
"No," Li San thought, "No, he’s not deceiving ."
"Because I’m not dead..."
"I should have died, Gu Changhuai didn’t kill , the Taoist Court didn’t kill , I was thrown into the Taoist Prison, but no one killed , and soone secretly handed the Demon Sect Token back to ..."
"All suffering is a test."
"As long as you’re loyal, you won’t die."
"I’m not dead, so Elder You didn’t deceive , he’s testing , sending to the Taoist Prison is also part of the ’test’."
"And the reason for sending to the Taoist Prison..."
"It must be because Elder You has a grand sche, such a sche is unfathomable, far beyond my guessing."
"Yes, Elder You didn’t deceive !"
In an instant, Li San’s gaze turned obsessive and loyal, with trembling hands, he held the Demon Sect Token and transmitted:
"Disciple Li San will go through fire and water for the Elder, even at the cost of his life!"
Then he lay on the ground, gazing at the prison ceiling, with a fla reigniting in his eyes.
...
Taixu Gate.
Mo Hua saw Li San’s words and nodded slightly.
This Li San was a Demon Cultivator. Originally, Mo Hua intended to dispose of him after using him, letting the Taoist Court finish him off.
But as the thought arose, it faded away unconsciously.
It seed this Demon Cultivator’s "Life Chart" was sowhat special, destined to be useful in the future, not yet ti for him to die.
This was just a vague feeling.
Mo Hua couldn’t say clearly, he didn’t even know what "Life Chart" was.
But for a mont, the premonition from the Heavenly chanism Causality conveyed this to him.
"Li San... Life Chart..."
"Since he isn’t destined to die, let’s keep him for now..."
As for whether he lives or dies, whether he survives in the Taoist Prison, that depends on his own fate.
Mo Hua put away the Guest Elder Token and organized matters related to the Demon Sect.
The next day, early in the morning, he went to visit Elder Master Xun.
There were so things he needed Elder Master Xun’s approval for.
"Exterminate the Demon Sect?" Elder Master Xun said unexpectedly.
Mo Hua nodded, "Information has been gathered, the Taoist Court has a plan, but manpower is lacking, needs so reinforcents."
Elder Master Xun said: "Is this sothing you’ve discussed with the Taoist Court?"
"Yes," Mo Hua didn’t hide, replying candidly, "After consulting with Uncle Gu from the Gu Family and Sister Xia from the Xia family, I decided."
"And the other matters?"
"All arranged," Mo Hua said, "Relevant intelligence, the Taoist Court is verifying, personnel are being mobilized in secret, other preparations are also underway..."
"But without the support of Taixu Gate, the plan to encircle and obliterate the Demon Sect would be difficult to implent. If the Demon Cultivators scatter without a thunderous strike, the consequences would be severe..."
Mo Hua spoke leisurely and thodically.
Elder Master Xun raised an eyebrow, deeply looking at Mo Hua.
"Unknowingly, Mo Hua, this child has grown, his aura has changed, even subtly taking on so strategic planning, mapping and organizing, with an air of calm confidence..."
Elder Master Xun felt pleased, nodding: "Good."
He pondered for a mont, then said directly: "Go find Ziyou, say it’s my order, have him allocate so Elders to go with you to exterminate the Demon Sect."
"Specific matters, you’ll handle them with the Taoist Court."
"If there’s anything you don’t understand, you can also ask Ziyou and those Elders..."
Mo Hua roughly guessed that Elder Master Xun should not refuse matters like demon-slaying and demon-removal, but didn’t expect his elder to agree so readily.
Mo Hua smiled, "Thank you, Elder!"
Elder Master Xun nodded slightly, reminding: "Take care of yourself."
"Alright!"
Afterward, Mo Hua acted as the "middleman," connecting and bridging, pushing the Taoist Court and Taixu Gate to join forces to encircle and eliminate the Demon Sect.
