Venerable Wisdom had followed Xin Youxuan into the Death Canyon, but had suddenly disappeared.
It turned out that this ravine appeared to be deserted on the surface. However, the Underworld Gate had set up many hidden guards. Before Xin Xiaoyuan and the others had arrived here, they had already notified the Hell's Gate Sovereign.
Thus, when they arrived at the Death Canyon, the Archdevil had already set up a trap to deal with them.
The leader of Hell's Gate took advantage of the fact that the Wisdom Master was walking at the back and used his unique skill of the Hidden Fragrance Arrow to quietly shoot out under the cover of the dim sunlight in the forest.
Both of them were masters of the present world. So the amount of 'Soul-Reaping Powder' used in this hidden weapon wasn't much. However, it was different from the one used by the Holy Envoy in April. As long as there was a small amount of them, they would instantly fall into a coma. Their weakness was that they wouldn't be able to persist for long. Those who were struck by the technique would quickly wake up.
The Underworld Sect Master was well aware of the pros and cons of his unique secret weapon. The instant that Venerable Wisdom was shot, she immediately carried her away from behind.
Xin Youxuan had been paying attention to the situation in front of them. When she turned around, this Sir Wisdom was nowhere to be seen.
The Lord of the Infernal Realm had always been extremely conceited with his appearance. However, after seeing the person whom he had captured, Venerable Wisdom, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion at the existence of such a beautiful woman.
Somehow, a wave of jealousy rose in his heart.
It was at this moment that Venerable Wisdom was in a daze as he shouted out Xin Youxuan's name.
Originally, the Hell's Gate Sovereign only knew that someone was about to barge into his Death Canyon. He didn't know about the relationship between Xin Youxuan and the Wisdom Lord.
However, after hearing the shouts of concern from Venerable Wisdom, as an experienced person, he understood that there was a high chance that the two of them were a couple.
An odd idea popped up in his mind, and he decided to confuse Xin Xiaoyuan himself.
When Venerable Wisdom woke up, the head of the Holy Envoy, Lianyue, was already waiting for him.
After this wise man woke up, he didn't open his eyes. After secretly cultivating for a week, he realized that he wasn't doing anything strange. He used the technique of seizing and grabbed hold of Xiyue's pulse.
When Venerable Wisdom was awake, she had only purposely pretended that she didn't know what had happened.
After Venerable Wisdom was able to hold her, Lianyue pretended to be unprepared and was caught by him. She pretended to be innocent and said, "Sister, why are you doing this?"
"Hmph. Didn't you capture me here? There are no good people in this Death Canyon. What are you pretending for?" Venerable Wisdom said angrily.
Lianyue said, "Little sister, you have truly misunderstood. I only saved your life because I was in the canyon picking medicinal herbs and met you for the evil."
"You saved me?" Venerable Wisdom asked doubtfully.
Lianyue said, "Of course."
After that, he explained it to Venerable Wisdom and realised that it was all a bunch of lies.
One of them was her, who lived her life by gathering herbs in the canyon. The other group, other than their strong martial arts, they were also good at using knockout drugs and could unknowingly knock people unconscious.
Normally, these two forces would be within their sphere of influence. However, today, in order to gather a precious medicinal herb, they had ventured into their sphere of influence. It just so happened that they had bewitched Venerable Wisdom and were preparing to bring them back to their lair.
Initially, he had not intended to interfere in this matter. However, he had acted out of righteous indignation and saved Venerable Wisdom.
After he finished speaking, Sacred Envoy Lianyue pretended to be worried and sighed. He said, "Although this group of people are hateful, they didn't disturb us sisters. Today, we've offended them in order to save our little sister. I'm afraid there won't be a peaceful day in this valley!"
Seeing how sincere Lian Yue's words were, Venerable Wisdom couldn't help but believe it a bit. He apologized, "In that case, I was wrong about big sister. I'm so sorry."
"It's nothing. It's only right to be cautious when travelling in the martial arts world." Lianyue pretended to be understanding.
After speaking, Lian Yue asked, "In this Death Canyon, there are very few people who come, and there aren't even many who have heard of it. Little sister, how did you come here? Is there something you need?"
Venerable Wisdom was a straightforward and kind girl. He thought that since she had saved him, there was no need for him to hide it from her, so he should just tell her everything.
Thus, he told the other party his purpose for coming here.
However, he didn't reveal his identity. After all, he still had the heart to let them go.
After Sacred Envoy Lianyue heard this, he thought to himself, "This woman's background is definitely not small. Otherwise, there's no way he would know about the matter of the Magic Cube jade." In fact, in the Underworld Sect, aside from the four of them, only they, the four holy emissaries, knew about it. It was because it was related to a secret of today that not even the current great father of the Persian Manichean Church knew about it.
Thinking of this, the envoy's killing intent began to rise. He felt that it was no longer appropriate for this Wisdom Master to continue living in this world. However, when she recalled the orders of her master, the head of the Hell sect, the murder, had only flashed through her heart.
Seeing that the envoy had stopped talking, Reverend Wisdom once again asked, "Sister, there's another companion who came with me. Do you know where he is?"
Venerable Lianyue naturally knew about this. It was the four sisters who had captured Xin Xiaoyuan.
However, Venerable Lianyue definitely wouldn't want Venerable Wisdom to explain this secret. Thus, he denied that the area was vast and he himself wasn't too sure either. He would send his men to investigate and see what the situation was.
Venerable Wisdom was extremely worried about Xin Youxuan's condition, and wanted to look for her personally.
Venerable Lianyue would definitely not allow him to do so. With the fact that Venerable Wisdom was not familiar with the situation here, it was best to let her subordinates handle this matter first.
Thinking that this was, after all, their trump card and it was not too easy to go against their intentions, Venerable Wisdom was left with no choice but to do so.
After Senior Lianyue had comforted Venerable Wisdom Master, she continued to rest. After that, he left her room and headed for the Hell's Gate Sovereign's room.
By this time, the Lord of the Infernal Realm was already waiting for her in her room.
Venerable Lianyue should have been extremely generous just now. She said coquettishly to her master, "Sect Leader, are you satisfied with this young man that I have dedicated my life to you?"
Although his heart was filled with joy, he was, after all, the ruler of this place. In front of his own disciple and subordinate, he still pretended to be very dignified and said, "Lianyue, come over here."
After he finished speaking, he whispered a secret message into the ears of the man who walked over.
