"Oh no, could it be that the Holy Maiden is going to expose me?" Xue Ruyun was startled. His hand slowly tightened its grip on the dagger as he prepared to escape.

At this time, he saw two Senior Servants encircle him from left to right. Xue Ruyun tried his best to appear calm, but in reality, his heart was already in turmoil.

"You, come out." A mama walked to the side of Xue Ruyun and loudly yelled.

Xue Ruyun glanced at the mama, and after confirming that she was being called, she walked over with slow steps.

"En, not bad. Follow me." The mama sized up Xue Muyun and couldn't help but praise her after seeing her stunning appearance.

Xue Luoyun didn't know what she meant by this, so she just followed her to the Holy Maiden's side.

The Holy Maiden didn't even look at her, directly walking towards the back of the screen. Xue Ruyun peeked out of the corner of his eye and saw that the others had already been brought out by the Ghost-Masked Man. As for Xue Muyun, he was led by the mama to walk behind the screen by the Holy Maiden.

There was a very large secret passage behind the screen. Two mama each took out a piece of stone and pressed a button on the wall. The door of the secret passage was opened.

Xue Ruyun followed the Holy Maiden into the secret passage, and then the mechanism outside the door was closed. The secret passageway turned pitch black, and after a while, the walls lit up with a faint light.

With this light, Xue Ruoyun looked around.

He only saw that it was a very solid and sealed secret passage. On both sides of the walls of the secret passage, many malevolent looking deities were carved. Xue Ruoyun looked at these deities carefully, and on their heads, there was the mark of fire. Presumably, this was the god that this evil cult worshipped.

Xue Ruyun followed the others and continued to walk forward. This secret passageway was moist and very long. Taking advantage of the mama's inattentiveness, Xue Ruyun turned his head to take a look. He saw that he couldn't see the end of it from the front and back. The deeper they went, the narrower they became, so narrow that they could only pass through one by one.

"Just where are they bringing me to? They can't be going to punish or kill me, right?" Xue Ruyun looked at these few people that were deeply in love and solemn, and his heart began to beat like a drum.

She calculated that if she wanted to escape through this secret passage, it would be difficult for her to even turn around with Ben, let alone use a weapon. If they were to fight, how would he win?

Xue Ruyun calculated in his heart what he would do in the middle of a duel; which one would be easier to defeat with a single move? Luckily, after walking for a while, they finally arrived.

"There's a thick wall in front of us. What's going on?" Xue Ruyun also stopped.

The two mama took out the stone tools from before and took it out on an unremarkable wall. Following that, two discs appeared. The mama's stone instrument was placed on a plate and fitted perfectly.

With a bang, the wall moved aside. Xue Ruoyun followed her out, the light somewhat dazzling. She had actually arrived at a room. Xue Ruyun looked at the furnishings in the room. This was clearly the cell of the Holy Maiden that she had seen from afar.

"Why did you come here?" Xue Luoyun was astonished.

"Where do you think you are going?" The Holy Maiden's eyes were lifeless as she sat down, faintly uttering these words.

"Who exactly are you?" Xue Luoyun saw that she seemed to know everything, and was also locked in this place. In her heart, she was even more confused about her identity.

"Puchi …" The Holy Maiden suddenly laughed, stretching her muscles and revealing her lively nature. This turn of events was too sudden, causing Xue Ruoyun to be even more baffled.

"Could it be that she is the person with dual personality that we modern times speak of? One body and two people? " Xue Ruyun looked around her once, carefully sizing her up.

"What are you looking at? Is there something wrong with me?" The Holy Maiden asked.

"No, why did you bring me here?" Xue Ruyun came back to his senses and vigilantly asked.

"Kill you." The Holy Maiden's eyes suddenly revealed a murderous light as she approached with a gloomy face.

"Stop joking. If you wanted to kill me, you could have exposed me just now. Why bother putting in so much effort to bring me here?" Xue Luoyun sat down with his hands folded across his chest, not afraid at all.

"It seems that I did not choose the wrong person. You really are the messenger sent by the Heavenly Mother to save our Solitary Faction." The Holy Maiden once again revealed a pleasantly surprised expression.

"After waiting for so long, I thought that the Heavenly Mother had abandoned us because of our sinful nature. I didn't expect her to still care for us." As the Holy Maiden spoke, she prostrated herself on the ground and muttered some words. When the women in the surrounding cells saw this, they also followed and kowtowed to Xue Ruoyun.

These people were somewhat stupefied, unable to understand a single word she was saying.

"What envoy?" Can you tell me why you're worshipping me? " Xue Ruyun quickly pulled her up, somewhat overwhelmed by the unexpected favor.

"Envoy, you just came from the sky, the Heavenly Mother sent you in a hurry, and asked me to slowly explain to you the situation." After the Holy Maiden devoutly paid her respects, she sat cross-legged on the side.

"Eh, go ahead."

"We were originally a single faction, worshiping Liushan Heavenly Mother. "Normally, when he cultivates the Dao, he hoped to break free from the shackles of the mortal world and ascend to the Immortal Realm." The Holy Maiden remembered.

As it turned out, this single faction was originally a famous faction. It had a great number of followers and was spread throughout the west. The person in front of them was called Dan Ling Lin. She was the most respected Holy Maiden in the sect.

Over the past few years, they travelled everywhere to educate everyone. They hoped that everyone could endure this suffering and enjoy their own destiny. They threw away their worries and finally ascend into the heavens, truly free from this calamity.

Six years ago, they heard that there was a mysterious Clear Water River over at Qing Shui County. This river was so clear that the bottom could be seen, and only after being watered by the heavenly water would it be able to flow out. According to the information recorded, this Clear Water River might have been one of the jade springs left behind by Li Shan's Heavenly Mother when she ascended.

After hearing about this sacred land, the Holy Maiden selected a few disciples and followed her to look for the holy spring. After finding it, and after confirming it was the holy spring, she informed all the disciples to come pay their respects.

Walking from the vast yellow sands to Qingshui County, he found that the mountains were clear and beautiful, lush and verdant like a paradise.

When they found the sacred spring, they heard that the statue of the mother of Lishan had sunk to the bottom of the spring, so the Holy Maiden sent fifteen disciples to dive into the water and fetch the sacred chariot of the mother of Lishan.

However, when they went deeper into the spring, they did not find the sculpture of the Heavenly Mother. Instead, they found a huge lake at the bottom of the well. The Holy Maiden sent people to continue searching and found that the lake was moving elsewhere. As the saints swam to the end of the lake, they found a small gap that could fit several people.

The saint went through the gap and down the waterfall, and found this blessed cave. There were strange flowers and herbs everywhere. The ground was covered in golden sand, glittered with light, and there were even hot springs emitting immortal auras. There was also the spirit beast, the Sika Deer, that they worshipped. This was simply a holy land of dreams.

Under the guidance of her mother, the Holy Maiden saw this place. It was spacious and airy, hidden within the deep mountains, isolated from the world. The scenery was beautiful, and it was truly a paradise on earth. This was the place of cultivation that so many generations of them had been searching for.

It seems that the Heavenly Mother had definitely ascended by cultivating here.

The Holy Maiden was overjoyed, leading everyone into seclusion.

They had been here for more than a year, but the good times had not lasted long. Five years ago, an army suddenly broke into this place. They had also discovered the unique environment of the cave and wanted to seize it for themselves. He even coveted the gold on the ground and wanted to open a gold mine here.

This was the place that the Heavenly Mother had pointed out, and also the place where the Heavenly Mother had ascended. The believers obviously couldn't allow the army to destroy this place, so they had to fight with them.

The Solitary Li sect had a lot of followers, and they also had many experts in martial arts. Although the army was brutal, it was not comparable to the Solitary Li sect's many believers, so they pretended to compromise.

The single-minded followers of the sect have a pure mind and take the task of educating all beings. After seeing them compromise, he was certain that it was all a lie and put down his guard against them.

"I didn't expect that I would fall into their trap and end up like this." After the Holy Maiden finished speaking, she felt extremely heartbroken. Her large spirited eyes were filled with grief, causing people's heart to ache for her.

"What did they do? "Why did it become like this?" When Xue Ruyun heard this, he became exceptionally angry.

"They pretend to be my disciples and spy on us."

"What secret."

"You know that everyone I send is loyal to the Holy Maiden, and every Holy Maiden knows that the secret medicine formulas are specially used to punish those who have betrayed the Holy Maiden."

"How? After eating it, you will become a walking corpse, and you will become a tool with no meaning at all? " Thinking of everything that had happened in the cave, Xue Ruoyun probed.

"Indeed, I believe you have guessed it as well." The Holy Maiden was extremely sorrowful. Her long eyelashes drooped as if there were glistening tears that were stuck to them. She continued reminiscing.

"Once, when they pretended to be ill, they sent the Holy Maiden to treat me. After I brought a few Protectors with me, I fell into their trap and was captured. and also forced me to hand over the secret medicine formula, or else I would slowly kill everyone from my sect. "

"I had no choice but to compromise. They want to mine gold here, and even more so, they want to conspire to rebel inside. "

Then they locked me up and lied to the believers outside that I was going to go into seclusion. The Holy Maiden of the past would often go into seclusion to cultivate, so no one doubted her words.

When they received the formula, they would concoct the pills and coax everyone to eat them. At this point, everyone became their slave, the tool of their conspiracy to rebel.

They lived here, constantly mining, making weapons, secretly training the army. In order to make it easier to use water, they even cut off the underground lake and cut off the water to this place. It caused untold suffering to the people outside.

In the whole of Qing Shui County, what used to be a beautiful paradise on earth had now turned into a place that was filled with sand. The beautiful paradise on earth had become a devil's hell.

After turning our sect's people into their tools, they are not yet satisfied, and they continue to increase in size. He continued to bring in strong young men to work from the outside.

After the Holy Maiden finished speaking, her eyes were filled with tears. She was originally a kind-hearted person, and seeing everyone turn into this caused her to feel extremely guilty. Therefore, they prayed earnestly every day that the Heavenly Mother would send messengers to save them.
