Chapter 2309: Chapter 2304: Bing Yao’s Visit

The corners of the Divine Envoy of the Blood Ancestor Divine Sect held a faint smile. This city will once again embrace the Blood Ancestor.

And the traitors, along with those who slaughtered the Blood Ancestor’s Divine Envoys and followers back then, will naturally be punished.

"People of the Blood Ancestor, rise up, for the Blood Ancestor will protect you. You are born to fight for the Blood Ancestor, and in death, you will be embraced by the Blood Ancestor."

The Divine Envoy waved his hand to those around, making them even more excited.

Tang Ming, standing in the courtyard, suddenly felt a surge of dense Immortal Energy coming from the city gate, and his expression turned serious. He leaped onto the roof, just in time to see the Blood Ancestor’s Divine Envoy at the city gate.

At this moment, the window of the front hall’s pavilion was also pushed open from inside. Bing Yao and her senior sister were also staring outside.

"Is this the power of the Blood Ancestor? It’s indeed a bit formidable."

Hu Mei’er raised her eyebrows and then said.

Tang Ming’s gaze fell upon Gehou, who had just come over with him: "What do you think?"

"It’s nothing but petty tricks, using the power of blood to condense into Blood Poison. Those people seem to have enhanced their strength, but in reality, their souls have been corrupted. In a world, the fallen will return to the embrace of the world’s Law and will eventually be reborn in this world, though they won’t retain memories of their past lives. But those tainted by Blood Poison are like demons of the Abyss; haven’t you noticed that the longer they are soaked in Blood Poison, the more grotesque they become?"

Gehou’s voice became aged, which greatly surprised Hu Mei’er, who stood beside Tang Ming.

Tang Ming smiled and then said: "This is the Nine-headed Goose Deer, whom I’ve introduced to you before."

"Oh, so it’s Senior Nine-headed Goose Deer. Do you have a way to reveal the Blood Poison?"

Sparkling eyes, Hu Mei’er suddenly asked.

Gehou’s lips curled slightly, then said: "Heh heh, you little girl, you are indeed smarter than Tang Ming. Tomorrow, aren’t they planning to sacrifice the Bing Family’s Family Head and Great Elder? Then let’s give the followers of the Blood Ancestor something interesting."

"Senior, speaking of the Abyss Plane, aren’t you also considered a Blood Ancestor?"

Tang Ming’s gaze fell on the Nine-headed Goose Deer, and then he asked.

According to the Demon Slayer Prophet, a Blood Ancestor is equivalent to an incarnation or servant of a Plane’s Sovereign.

The Nine-headed Goose Deer was once the Sovereign of the Demon Abyss Plane and now governs the Qiankun Nine Palace Realm.

Gehou’s body paused, remaining silent for a long time before finally speaking: "I no longer need the power of faith. It’s like the old Prophet of the Demon Slayer Clan, whose legacy is reincarnation. My legacy is the Qiankun Nine Palace Realm. When I was refined into the Qiankun Nine Palace Tripod, I no longer needed faith."

"I see. But faith can make the strong of a Plane more loyal and closer in heart, right?"

Tang Ming’s gaze fell on Gehou.

Gehou grinned, then said: "You’ve only seen the good and not the bad. Everything has its pros and cons. Religion, this thing is inherently traceless, and with the incident of the Blood Ancestor Divine Sect, I advise you, it’s best not to start any religion in Taoyuan World."

Tang Ming’s eyes narrowed.

Previously, when he brought this up with the Demon Slayer Prophet, even those in West Continent City reported it and seemed unwilling for him to establish a religion.

He always couldn’t figure it out, but now the Nine-headed Goose Deer said the same, which made Tang Ming determined not to create any religion.

"Let’s talk about those fun things for tomorrow."

Tang Ming’s gaze fell on Gehou.

The Nine-headed Goose Deer shook its head: "This can be handled by Gehou. When it’s time to save people, you and Hu Mei’er just need to step in. I have to go prepare now."

Gehou’s eyes slowly filled with spirit, and she bowed slightly to Tang Ming and Hu Mei’er: "Master, Madam, Gehou is going to help Lord Nine-headed Goose Deer prepare things."

Tang Ming nodded. The Nine-headed Goose Deer now valued Tang Ming’s feelings more than ever. In the past, matters like this with Gehou were not discussed with Tang Ming.

Seeing Tang Ming nod, Gehou disappeared from the rooftop. Tang Ming let out a long breath and jumped down into the courtyard.

Just as he returned to the courtyard, a knock came from the door.

"Please come in."

Tang Ming’s gaze fell at the door.

Bing Yao, along with her senior and junior sisters, entered, first observing Tang Ming and Hu Mei’er: "Where is that servant of yours?"

"She had something to attend to. Why, do you need something from her?"

Tang Ming looked at Bing Yao with some surprise, then asked.

Bing Yao shook her head: "No, I’m here for you. Earlier, you saw at the rooftop, right? That was the Blood Ancestor’s Evil Technique, which not only grants cultivators power, strengthening them, but also controls them. You two aren’t believers of the Blood Ancestor, right?"

Upon hearing Bing Yao’s words, Tang Ming realized that she was concerned about the scene he witnessed at the gate and feared he might betray them, hence she came to show her prowess.

Tang Ming pointed to the stone table in the courtyard, then smiled and said: "Miss, please sit. If there’s time, we might as well have a chat."

Tang Ming’s expression made Bing Yao raise her eyebrows, but her senior sister, the current Holy Maiden of the Holy Maiden Palace, patted Bing Yao’s shoulder with a smile and sat down: "Then we shall accept the offer graciously.

"Miss, since you have a grudge against the Blood Ancestor Divine Sect, I think we are on the same side."

Tang Ming nodded at Bing Yao and the Holy Maiden, then said.

"Same side? Do you also hold a grudge against the Blood Ancestor?"

Bing Yao exclaimed excitedly, while the Holy Maiden sitting next to her furrowed her brows.

Realizing her wording might be off, she coughed once, but still looked at Tang Ming with anticipation.

Tang Ming nodded, then said: "Yes. I am a friend of the Twin Clan. So, you should understand, right?"

"You come from Source Stone City?"

When Tang Ming mentioned the Twin Clan, the Holy Maiden of the Holy Maiden Palace looked up at Tang Ming.

Tang Ming nodded: "That’s correct. I am friends with Clan Leader Murong and Master Yao Jian."

Tang Ming stretched out his hand, revealing a dark yellow Gold Token in his palm.

This dark yellow Gold Token is a Protective Immortal Qi refined by Yao Jian, only owned by the guests of Iron Sword Inn.

Seeing the Iron Sword Gold Token in Tang Ming’s hand, the expression of joy appeared on the Holy Maiden’s face: "Great. So you are indeed a friend. Just now, I apologize on behalf of Wan’er for being on guard. Master, may I know how to address you?"
