Holding a child-bearing system, seducing all the handsome male cultivators in the wilderness

"Oh? What exactly did you encounter this time? Why were you so badly injured?" Ye Wushang asked with a frown.

Hongdie took a deep breath, as if she was recalling the scene at that time, and her face became even paler.

"Master Wen and I disguised ourselves as disciples of the demon sect and successfully sneaked into Fengquan territory. However, we didn't expect that the old fox Ximen Yan had been prepared. We were ambushed not long after we entered the territory."

"Ximen Yan sent out an elite ANBU team. The leader is extremely powerful. Even if Master Wen and I join forces, we are no match for him."

When Hongdie said this, a hint of fear flashed in her eyes.

"In order to cover my evacuation, Master Wen did not hesitate to self-ignite his inner elixir and detonate his spirit core with his severely injured body, hoping to die together with the leader. We were able to escape with the help of Wan Ji's secret realm."

Ye Wushang and others were shocked when they heard this.

The spirit core is the foundation of a cultivator. Once it explodes, one will pay a very heavy price. At the very least, all cultivation will be lost, and at the worst, the cultivator will die on the spot.

Wen Daochen was willing to go to such lengths to protect his companions. This friendship was truly too great.

"Master Wen..." A hint of worry flashed in Hongdie's eyes.

"Don't worry, Miss Hongdie. Fortunately, the Nine-Turn Soul-Restoring Pill provided by Miss Wanji is extremely effective. Brother Wen's life is saved." Mo Yunting comforted.

"Wan Ji, thanks to your generous donation of medicine. If Master Wen had died because of this, I would have felt guilty for the rest of my life." Hong Die looked at Li Wan Ji with gratitude in her eyes.

Li Wanji shook her head slightly and said softly, "Miss Hongdie, there is no need to be like this. Brother Daochen is a lucky man. It is his own blessing to be able to escape from danger."

"I'm really sorry, Lord Ye. Not only did Hongdie fail to complete the task you assigned me, but I also caused Master Wen to be seriously injured. I am really ashamed of your trust." Hongdie said guiltily.

Ye Wushang waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Hongdie, you don't have to blame yourself. This mission is full of unknowns and dangers. You are lucky to be able to come back alive."

"Ximen Yan is very cunning. This time, he has already alerted the enemy. Next time, it will be even more difficult for him to go deep into Fengquan to find the location of the Spirit Mine Mountain."

Hongdie nodded, agreeing with Ye Wushang's statement: "Master Ye is right. Although we failed to find the location of the Spirit Mine this time, we are not completely unsuccessful."

"Oh? What do you mean?" Ye Wushang raised his eyebrows and asked.

"The leader who severely injured us was no other than him. I heard his subordinates call him 'Lord Rakshasa'. His true identity is Taotie. He holds a very high position in the Fengquan dark department. I think he is also a descendant of the Ximen family." Hongdie said in a deep voice.

"Lord Rakshasa?" A gleam of brilliance flashed in Ye Wushang's eyes. He stood up and paced in the room, as if thinking about the meaning of this information.

"Taotie...Fengquan Anbu...Lord Rakshasa..." He whispered to himself, as if trying to connect these clues.

Li Wanji and Mo Yunting were also thinking about the information provided by Hongdie. They knew that this information might become the key to their next actions.

"That is most likely Ximen Yan's second son, Ximen Qing." Li Wanji suddenly spoke with a serious look in her eyes.

"Ximen Qing?" Ye Wushang turned around and looked at her, "Wan Ji, do you know anything about this person?"

Li Wanji had previously studied the Ximen family through the "Xianyuan Map" and knew that only the direct lineage Ximen disciples were the true incarnations of Taotie, while the rest were merely collateral descendants or illegitimate children with impure blood, and their true incarnations were mostly ordinary exotic beasts.

"Ximen Yan has two sons and one daughter. The eldest son, Ximen Hao, is the heir to his father's title of Western Ghost King. He sits in Fengquan and is in charge of Senluo Hall on Jiemie Peak. He is the apparent ruler of the Ximen family." Li Wanji began to analyze.

"Although Ximen Yan's second son Ximen Qing rarely shows up in public, he holds a very high status within the Ximen family."

"It is said that this person has a sinister and ruthless personality and cruel methods. He is deeply loved by Ximen Yan and has high hopes for him. He secretly controls the Anbu power of the Ximen family."

"The Rakshasa Lord you met this time is most likely this Ximen Qing."

After listening to Li Wanji's analysis, Ye Wushang's eyes flashed with a cold light: "Ximen Qing... If this person is really the leader of the Anbu, then it will be a big trouble for us."

"That's right." Li Wanji nodded and continued, "Ximen Qing is a very difficult person. The Anbu has been running the business under his control for many years. His power is huge and secretive. If we want to find the location of the Spirit Mine, I'm afraid we still have to plan for the long term."

When several people were in distress, Hong Die suddenly remembered that before encountering Lord Luosha, she and Wen Daochen had accidentally heard some young men in Fengquan discussing privately.

"Lord Ye, there is a piece of inside information that may be useful to us." Hongdie struggled to sit up, a look of determination on her face.

"Oh? Tell me quickly." Seeing this, Ye Wushang immediately moved closer, wanting to hear clearly what Hongdie said.

"If this Lord Luosha is really the Ximen Qing that Wan Ji just mentioned, then the entire Fengquan area is now preparing for his marriage."

"Preparing for a wedding? Ximen Qing wants to get married at this critical juncture?" Ye Wushang and others were all surprised when they heard this.

"Yes, I also heard this news accidentally from the children of Fengquan. I heard that this marriage was arranged by Ximen Qing's elder sister Ximen Xue herself. The woman's background is extremely powerful."

"This seems to be done for the purpose of marriage, to consolidate the Ximen family's position in the underworld. But I don't know which powerful family's daughter he married."

Hongdie told him everything she had heard.

"Xi Men Xue..." Ye Wushang kept repeating the name.

"The eldest daughter of the Ximen family, Ximen Xue, is now the legal wife of Cang Hao, the son of Cang Yuan, the Lord of the Underworld. This woman is extremely famous in the underworld. Not only does she have a high level of cultivation, but she is also extremely beautiful." Li Wanji added.

"She is personally in charge of preparing the marriage for my brother. I think the woman's status should be extremely noble, at least not worse than the Ximen family." Ye Wushang said in a deep voice.

Li Wanji chuckled: "This is actually not difficult to guess. Apart from the three great ghost kings of the East, South, and North, the only force that can marry into the Ximen family is the direct bloodline of the Underworld Lord Cangyuan."

Ye Wushang said thoughtfully: "Well, although this news seems to have nothing to do with our purpose of finding the Spirit Mine, it may be a starting point."

"Ximen Qing is preparing for his wedding, so there will definitely be a large amount of material transfer and personnel exchanges. We can take this opportunity to sneak into Fengquan again and observe secretly. Perhaps we can find clues about the Spiritual Mine."

Li Wanji and Hongdie nodded in agreement.

At this time, Mo Yunting had already checked Hongdie's injuries. He frowned and said, "Although Miss Hongdie's injuries are serious, fortunately, she has not suffered any serious damage. As long as she recuperates for a period of time, she should be able to recover."
