Why am I a villain and still have my own jokes?

"It seems that being elected as a new priest didn't make you feel very excited. Obviously those of your companions seem very excited."

Ling Linhan who pushed open the door realized that someone was already sitting in front of the desk.

"Ex...Senior, aren't you...?"

Qu Qianling leaned on the table with one elbow, and looked at Ling Linhan coldly with her face on her face:

"It's just that little fish wanting to find me, do I still need to hide? But it's been a long time since you left the selection scene with a bad face."

Ling Linhan scratched his head:

"Ah... am I acting that obvious?"

"It's more than that. You were the only one chosen by the statue of the Snake King this year, but you still looked reluctant. Don't you look at the expressions the people below have on you, and don't you care what they think of you?"

"If it was in the past, I would probably be very happy. After all, I just came here to become the priest of the Temple of the King of God and to help An Qi gain a firm foothold in Rukawa."

Probably Qu Qianling's attitude towards people and things other than Ling Yao was considered approachable. When Ling Linhan faced this powerful person, his mentality was unexpectedly calm, and he even felt a little homely with others.

"But since I saw the dungeon...But on the other hand, they don't care what I have experienced and what I think in my heart."

"That's true. But after seeing your little girlfriend, your mood recovered quickly."

"Uh...uh??? Ah, that...she...also...I...not...but actually..."

Ling Linhan, who had just greeted the new batch of people from Anqi Village who came to participate in the sacrificial ceremony, and chatted with Lou Yueniang for a while, suddenly felt guilty, and felt that the originally ordinary atmosphere in the house suddenly became uncomfortable.

Qu Qianling didn't bother to care about a kid's complicated youth love journey, maybe she didn't take what she said just now seriously, and just continued flipping through the books on the case.

This is the material that Ling Yao burned from the library of Shenwang Temple.Although there are not many records about those events 30 years ago, they are not without traces.

And once there is doubt in the heart, certain clues will gradually begin to emerge.

The tear between reality and rumors made her have to wonder whether the "truth" she got from the mouths of people around her was a subjective assumption, or was it the result of being maliciously distorted?

And if there are fallacies at the root, then all these years, she...

"Elder Sister! I'm here, but it's easy for me to find... Oh?"

Suddenly, a familiar yet unfamiliar voice came from outside the door,

"Isn't this the kid from Dragon Academy? Since when did you get the habit of taking hostages, sister?"

Ling Linhan and Qu Qianling looked up at the person who poked his head out of the door at the same time.

"Sword... from Xingyao Peak of Jianmen..."

Seeing Ling Linhan's astonished expression, Liang Yile stared at him for a moment, then turned to look at Qu Qianling solemnly:

"Ah! He recognized me. Do you need to kill me, Senior Sister?"

Although there was no killing intent in the other party's words, Ling Linhan was still in a cold sweat.

"Don't do unnecessary things. I didn't come to you for a joke."

"I know. But elder sister, you suddenly sent me a letter, and the content is so... I really thought it was a joke."

Liang Yile waved his hand,

"But if there is a chance to get it, I'm also very interested in the holy spring. After all, isn't it just for me to find these strange and unique treasures? As long as you don't dislike my fighting power, sister good."

"Why don't you dislike it? But I didn't intend to let you fight. It's enough to find a way to destroy the formation of the sacrificial ceremony. This should be the part you are good at, right?"

Qu Qianling squinted at him,

"Although the information just came that something happened to the Tongtian Snake Spirit; I still feel that the ideas and plans of these brats are too bold and naive. But as long as there is no loss and there are benefits, I don't mind Add more feet."

"Yeah, if it's really that easy to succeed, the Temple of the King of Gods won't fail for a thousand years, and the head of the sect will definitely take over this matter."

Liang Yile, like Qu Qianling, didn't pay attention to Ling Linhan who was dizzy, touched his chin and said,

"However, I don't know what the final result will be. If this thing is accomplished, it will be a masterpiece in the ages, shocking the world, crying ghosts and gods, and it will be recorded in the annals of history in the future. I can't finish talking about it for a few days and nights..."

"If you dare to talk about storytelling in front of me again, don't open your mouth again."

"Oh... TUT"

……

After the results of the election of new priests were released and the "Snake Spirit Messenger" was made public, the sacrificial ceremony held once every ten years was finally held in Shenwang Temple as scheduled.

Except for the few new priests added in the past ten years and the new face of "Yaolin" who appeared on the ceremony, all the processes of the ceremony were carried out as before ten years ago-burning incense and praying, reciting scriptures, and offering sacrifices Products, arrangement of spiritual formations.

Oh, except for the extra project that someone jokingly called "Salted Fish and Snake Dance"-although the appearance of "Snake Spirit Messenger" and "Master Ice Lan" did achieve the goal that the Temple of the King wanted to achieve, Once again, the unshakable position of Shenwang Temple in Rukawa people's hearts was consolidated.

And during the few days when the sacrificial ceremony was going on step by step, the two great masters of Jianmen were not idle.One was observing and analyzing the sacrificial array, and the other was personally searching for the location of the holy spring based on the internal structure diagram of the Temple of the Godly King revealed by Fan Shansheng.

Everyone is busy, everything is calm as usual, but it seems that the undercurrent is raging.

Even Da Xikang, the high priest who hadn't appeared in front of people for a long time, was "busy" with the important matter at hand.

"You mean...do you want to meet that human named 'Yao Lin' in person? Do you need me to bring him before the prophecy?"

The old man in white robe fell on the ground and asked respectfully.

And directly in front of him, the huge snake spirit colossus that soared into the clouds made a low voice in the misty clouds:

"Yes...he has... an aura about him. I need to check for myself. But... don't let him find out, find other reasons to bring him here.

"Also, the newly selected young priest, I also need to find out more about his situation. The two of them...may be the key to whether I can get out of the current predicament. You understand what I mean."

Thousands of thoughts flashed through Da Xikang's mind about the instructions to the Heavenly Snake Spirit, but he still didn't raise his head, and replied in an extremely devout tone:

"Yes, my lord. We will fulfill your entrustment with all our heart and soul. The sacrificial array will be completed soon, and your divine state will soon reappear in the world."

"Go."

The deep voice became more and more erratic, as if it was about to disappear into the clouds and smoke,

"The moment I regain my strength, I will naturally fulfill your wish and grant you the eternal life you are looking forward to."

……

"Ah chirp—ah, who's talking about me, it's annoying."

Ling Yao touched his nose, and said with an irritable face,

"However, I always feel that there is something tricky about that old man Da Xikang suddenly calling us to the main hall..."

"trap?"

Ling Linhan asked.

"It's hard to say. Maybe it's just a test. After all, the sacrificial ceremony is not over yet. If the 'Snake Spirit Messenger' and the newly promoted priest suddenly disappeared, it would be difficult for the Temple of God to explain it. But...be careful.

"Oh, that's right. Where's your silly wolf? Haven't seen you for a few days? Are you braised?"

Facing Ling Yao's thick-skinned and sloppy words, Ling Linhan has calmed down now:

"...I gave it the Fire Spirit Orb, and it should still be in seclusion now. If it can get out this time, it will probably be promoted to the peak of the fifth order."

"That speed is really fast. As expected of the protagonist's favor, the treatment is awesome... Ah, speaking of which, your realm has recovered a lot, right? Dongxumujie? It seems that the energy of the sacrificial ceremony is fed back to you , the benefits to you are really not small."

"Yes... However, if you want to return to the original level, I'm afraid you still need a little chance."

"Don't worry, as the protagonist, the opportunity you want will come to you soon."

Ling Yao patted Ling Linhan on the shoulder, and said something that sounded comforting, but still made Ling Linhan a little confused,

"As long as you can promise, don't 'revenge' me for that Chen Guzi's rotten sesame in the future. I've agreed. You were the one who proposed to void Lao Shizi's 'five-year agreement'!"

"I got it... I told you I won't leave Rukawa! You're so annoying! Let's go now! They're already looking for you, so hurry up and find out what they want to do in the main hall!"

"Good talk good talk!"

Ling Yao happily patted Ling Linhan on the back, thinking:

"Great, now my flag should be unplugged, yeah!"
