Chapter 261 Everything is ready, only the east wind is lacking
"Do you wish to be loyal to me, or to the Blood Soul Holy Land?"
Lin Hanzhou's indifferent voice, like a cold wind from the depths of hell, gently echoed in Su Muqing's ears, yet every word carried immense weight.
This question, which may seem like a simple multiple-choice question, is in fact a choice that could determine her life or death.
Su Muqing's forehead was covered in cold sweat, and her mind raced with thoughts.
Loyal to the Holy Land of Blood Soul?
That was where she grew up, the source of her strength and status.
Logically speaking, as a member of the "saintly order," she should have sworn to be loyal to the death.
But the person before them was incredibly powerful and unfathomable.
Since this person dared to ask this question, it means that his relationship with the Holy Land may not be as harmonious as it appears on the surface, and there may be high-level power struggles and factional disputes!
If she answers "loyal to the Holy Land," will this capricious adult immediately consider her a dissident and kill her on the spot?
But if she answers "loyal to the master," and the Holy Land finds out later, she will also face certain death!
"call……"
Su Muqing took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the fear in her heart.
She slowly raised her head, and in her beautiful eyes, there was no longer any confusion, but instead a kind of almost fanatical determination.
"Report to your lord!"
Su Muqing's voice was clear and resolute.
"Mu Qing, loyal to my lord!"
Before Lin Hanzhou's expression could change, she quickly added in a matter-of-fact tone:
"Because, in Mu Qing's heart, you, my lord, are the very heaven of the Blood Soul Holy Land!"
"To be loyal to the Lord is to be loyal to the Blood Soul Holy Land!"
These words surprised even Lin Hanzhou slightly.
Although the other party's words had a clear hint of flattery, logically they perfectly bound him to the behemoth that was the Blood Soul Holy Land.
This is exactly what he wanted.
Since in the eyes of the other party, he is the embodiment of the Blood Soul Holy Land and an inseparable part of its high-level leadership.
Wouldn't this backstab talent allow him to be identified as a cultivator from the Blood Soul Holy Land?
However, Lin Hanzhou still felt that relying solely on verbal agreements was not enough to ensure security.
Who knows if that talent is playing some kind of "word game" with him, judging him as not being a member of the Blood Soul Holy Land, and thus refusing to issue the backstab reward?
Therefore, just to be on the safe side, he decided to go through the "formal process" of joining the Blood Soul Holy Land.
Even if it's just a nominal position.
"very good."
Lin Hanzhou nodded slightly, a hint of admiration flashing in his deep eyes.
"You have shown me your loyalty."
"In that case, I will certainly not treat you unfairly."
He paused, his tone suddenly becoming serious and unquestionable.
"Now that Li Daoyi is dead, your mission has been successfully completed."
"This secret realm is about to descend into chaos. You should also seek an opportunity to return to the holy land and report back."
"Yes! It's all thanks to your guidance!"
Su Muqing quickly kowtowed, overjoyed.
She knew that she had now completely latched onto this "incredibly powerful figure".
"but……"
Lin Hanzhou changed the subject.
"After your return, I have one more thing to entrust to you."
"This matter concerns one of my top-secret plans. You must handle it perfectly for me, without the slightest mistake!"
"otherwise……"
A chilling killing intent flashed by.
Su Muqing trembled and quickly replied, "Please speak, my lord! I am willing to go through fire and water to repay your kindness! I would never dare to slacken in the slightest!"
"Um."
Lin Hanzhou nodded in satisfaction.
"I instruct you, upon your return to the Blood Soul Holy Land, to use your authority to officially register this person's identity information in the Holy Land's register!"
"As for status, it doesn't need to be too high, an outer disciple will suffice."
Lin Hanzhou knew that if his status was too high, such as an inner disciple or elder, it would definitely attract the attention of the Holy Land's higher-ups, and he would easily be exposed.
On the contrary, those inconspicuous, low-level identities are the easiest to manipulate and the least likely to be noticed.
In any case, all he needs is an official identity from the Blood Soul Holy Land.
"Outer...outer sect disciple?"
Su Muqing was stunned for a moment, clearly not following Lin Hanzhou's train of thought.
But before she could think about it further...
"call out--!"
Lin Hanzhou flicked his finger, and a stream of light containing profound information entered Su Muqing's sea of consciousness.
Su Muqing's delicate body trembled slightly, and she quickly calmed down to check.
But it turns out that the information in that stream of light was just an identity resume?
Name: Lin Hanzhou
Bone age: 22 years old
[Cultivation Level: (You'll have to find a way to disguise it)]
[Place of Origin: (You should also try to fake it)]
The information was shockingly rudimentary; aside from a name and an age, everything else was blank.
"this……"
Su Muqing was extremely surprised.
She couldn't understand why this powerful figure would go to such lengths to obtain a false identity and infiltrate his sacred ground as a lowly outer disciple.
Is this some kind of unusual fetish?
Or is there something hidden here, a grand scheme targeting the Holy Land's interior?!
"Use a fake identity to infiltrate the holy land...start from the bottom...play dumb to outsmart the enemy..."
In an instant, countless possibilities flashed through Su Muqing's mind.
But no matter which one it was, it all left her feeling bewildered yet impressed!
"You can make up the rest of the information yourself."
Lin Hanzhou's indifferent voice interrupted her reverie.
"As long as it gets included in the register smoothly, understand?"
"Yes! I understand!"
Su Muqing didn't dare to think any further and quickly agreed.
After all, with her current status as a "heroic undercover agent," her position will inevitably rise after returning to the Blood Soul Holy Land!
It would be incredibly easy to place an unknown disciple in the chaotic outer sect.
Even if the information is false, she has a hundred ways to make it true.
"very good."
Lin Hanzhou felt relieved when he saw that the other party had agreed.
Everything is ready, except for the east wind.
Lin Hanzhou slowly turned around, no longer looking at Su Muqing who was still kneeling on the ground.
He stood with his hands behind his back, his blue Taoist robe fluttering in the scorching wind.
His deep eyes, seemingly containing the stars and the sea, looked over the ravaged mountain peaks and over the layers of clouds and mist, gazing at the distant horizon hundreds of millions of miles away.
The sky there was painted in two completely different colors at that moment.
On one side, there was a dazzling golden light and crisscrossing sword energy, as if countless celestial palaces and divine halls were floating in the clouds!
That was the sword energy unleashed by the combined efforts of the seven eighth-level elders of the Taiyan Holy Land.
On the other side, demonic energy soared into the sky, and six giant beast phantoms roared to the heavens!
That was the primal ferocity released by the six demon lords within this [Void Cave Secret Realm].
