Substituting one thing for another

Substituting one thing for another

Aug 09, 2024

"There are hundreds of families in the wilderness. They can stand in this chaotic land because of their own strength. The more inner masters a family can have, the greater its strength."

Master Liao said slowly.

"But there are only a handful of families that master the inner master's cultivation method, so some inner masters jointly created a sect. There is no connection between the sect and other families. Only free inner masters can enter the upper echelons of a sect. This is also tacitly agreed by everyone."

"Among all the sects, only a few can be ranked. The seven sects in the wilderness are the ceiling. The goal of my Tianyin Sect at this time is one of them-Xuanzong!"

Xiang Luoxi nodded as if he understood. After he was tied here by a group of people inexplicably, the ferocious-looking uncle in front of him began to tell him about the outside world, completely ignoring whether Xiang Luoxi could understand.

Xiang Luoxi did not dare to resist at all. His whole body was stuffed in a sack and his legs were kneeling on the ground. He could clearly smell the blood in the air, and the smell made him sick. Coupled with the ferocious uncle in front of him, it was hard not to associate the two together.

This group of weird people suddenly appeared and kidnapped him here. No wonder the old man of the clan often warned him not to sneak out of the village. It turned out to be this reason.

It seems that he can only save his life by being obedient. Xiang Luoxi doesn't think he has lived too long. Since his parents left him alone in this world, he has cherished his life very much. This time he sneaked out of the village, he also made a lot of preparations. I just didn't expect that someone else would kidnap him.

"In this case, this uncle, why are you arresting me? I'm not from Xuanzong. I'm just an innocent passerby. Let me go, okay?" Xiang Luoxi said carefully, making a pitiful expression at the same time. He felt too innocent. Is there any crime in feeding a mouse with sweet potatoes?

Lord Liao was stunned. He didn't expect that this kid was tied up and arrested, but his little mouth was still talking nonstop.

"Boy, this is also your blessing."

Lord Liao stepped on Xiang Luoxi's shoulder, and with a little force, Xiang Luoxi fell to the ground.

"It is said that the wife and children of the inner sect elder of Xuanzong had died in a war before, leaving only a grandson who escaped by chance. The kid was lost in the market when he was a child, and only found his whereabouts recently. Of course, it was the news we released. At this time, the inner sect elder may be anxiously looking for him."

Xiang Luoxi's eyes showed a trace of confusion, "His grandson is missing, what does it have to do with me? I am not his grandson..."

Xiang Luoxi became more and more confused as he listened. What is the connection between him and this matter? Why is he looking for trouble with himself?

"Hehe..."

Lord Liao laughed sinisterly, and a huge conspiracy emerged in his mind.

"That kid has been missing for so many years, let alone how much he has changed. Even if he is placed directly in front of the inner sect elder, he may not be recognized. As long as we do some disguise, won't the old man take the bait?"

Xiang Luoxi's age seems flawless, and he looks like a rich kid. Using him to pass off the real thing as the real thing must be enough to deceive the old man.

It's strange to say, why

(This chapter is not yet finished, please turn the page)

Why would Xiang Luoxi appear in this uninhabited Beiyuan Peak? He doesn't have much strength, he is just an ordinary person. Regardless of how he came here, Xiang Luoxi can't guarantee his own safety.

"I'll borrow you for a while. If you succeed in killing the inner sect elder, you can stay in Tianyin Sect. I'll give you some cultivation techniques. Wouldn't it be great to be a small outer sect guardian?"

At this time, Lord Liao wanted to use Xiang Luoxi's existence to set up an ambush and kill the inner sect elder in the outside world!

Xiang Luoxi also understood that he was used as bait. He used earthworms to catch fish in the creek behind the village. But now, he has become an earthworm, ready to catch a big fish!

"I see, no wonder the address was chosen here at Beiyuan Peak. If the people of Xuanzong dare to attack in a large scale, the monsters in the mountain alone will cause it to suffer heavy losses. If the inner sect elders want to rescue their grandsons, they can only come here alone!"

"If we take down an inner sect elder, can't we be promoted directly to Dharma protector? This is a rare and valuable opportunity!"

In the Tianyin Sect, the hierarchy is strict, and only those who have made great military achievements can be promoted. If they can successfully be promoted to outer sect Dharma protectors with this opportunity, then they, the Tianyin believers, will have a good life.

Lord Liao glanced at the delighted Tianyin believers, sneered, and didn't say anything, but despised them in his heart.

"An ant who is not even an inner martial arts master, and whose combat power is only one level higher than that of an ordinary person, is fantasizing like this? He also wants to get involved in the position of the outer sect guardian? Humph, overestimating his own abilities."

If he wanted, he could take the lives of everyone present with one hand, and the people above would not blame him. After all, he has done such things more than once. But at this time he calmed down. At this time, this group of people still needed to release the news to the outside world as soon as possible, otherwise, how could the powerful inner sect elders be successfully hooked?

Sometimes, some ants are still useful.
I saw Lord Liao stand up. He was two meters tall. Although he was wearing a long gown, the thick lines of his body were still looming, and the cold and dangerous aura emanated from his body, which made people shudder. Seeing Lord Liao standing up, a group of Tianyin believers also lowered their heads.

"After leaving Beiyuan Peak, spread the news and say that the boy is in my hands. If you want this boy to leave intact, let him stand in front of me in person."

"Yes!!!"

The Tianyin believers did not dare to pause for a moment. After a few breaths, only Xiang Luoxi and the other two were left here.

Although Xuanzong was thousands of miles away, they had a unique information network. It might only take an hour for the news to reach Xuanzong thousands of miles away.

Lord Liao walked straight to the pine tree beside him, sitting cross-legged, with his fists clenched and flat on his thighs.

"You kid, don't think of running away while I'm meditating. Although I won't kill you, it's more than enough to take your arm."

When Xiang Luoxi heard this, his hair stood on end. He didn't expect that this fierce-looking uncle was so domineering. Not only did he kidnap him here for no reason, but he also threatened his freedom.

"Oh, I should have stayed in the village earlier. Why did I run around? I'm such a fool!" Xiang Luoxi complained in a low voice

(This chapter is not yet finished, please turn the page)

, fearing that he would wake up Lord Liao.

"Hiss~~" Xiang Luoxi's pupils suddenly contracted, and he couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. In the solid sack, his fingers felt a tingling sensation.

Suddenly feeling the tingling sensation, Xiang Luoxi's stress reaction was still a bit big. His legs kicked out directly and hit the sack, but this seemingly ordinary sack was not damaged at all. It was very tough. No matter how Xiang Luoxi kicked it with his legs, it was safe and sound.

In the sack, Xiaogua hugged Xiang Luoxi's right hand and bit his fingers hard, just like the way he bit the sweet potato before. His vicious expression made people laugh.

After all, he was also kidnapped by Xiang Luoxi, so how could he not have any resentment?

"What are you doing? Let me tell you, the fate of the two of us... oh no, one person and one rat is tied together. If anything happens to me, they won't let you go!" Xiang Luoxi whispered, not daring to raise his voice. Once he woke up the fierce uncle in front of him, he would surely not have a good ending.

However, Xiaogua did not relax at all, but continued to bite Xiang Luoxi's fingers viciously. Without waiting for Xiang Luoxi to speak, a sentence of complaint came to Xiang Luoxi's mind.

"Why are the fates of the two of us... oh no, one rat and one person tied together? Don't you know? Why did you catch me when you were in danger? I just ate a few of your sweet potatoes. There's no need to risk my life, right?" In Xiaogua's view, his current situation was no different from death.

"I was caught with someone like you... No, I was caught by you! I was not caught by wild cats and poisonous snakes, but by a sack. It's a shame for rats! I have no face to live in this mountain..."

After saying that, Xiaogua's voice became weaker. Xiang Luoxi noticed something was wrong and pinched Xiaogua's body. Unexpectedly, Xiaogua spit out a big breath with a hiss. Xiang Luoxi could hear its rapid breathing.

"Ahem, you damn human, I want to suffocate to death, but you won't help me? I'm about to vomit the sweet potato I just ate!"

Xiang Luoxi was stunned. A mouse wants to suffocate itself to death?

"Are you really a mouse?"

"You should die in a dignified way in a fight with a cat, not by suffocating yourself. Wouldn't you feel ashamed if you died like this?"

"Ahem... I feel... it would be even more ashamed if I were strangled to death by you..."

Xiang Luoxi realized that he had used too much force and had squeezed Xiaogua so hard that he couldn't breathe, so he let go and gave it a way to live.

Xiaogua was completely desperate at this time. He didn't expect that he would fall into such a dangerous situation because of his greed for those sweet potatoes. Is this the end of greed?

"It's okay, Xiaogua, you just heard it, that strange uncle said that I won't be in any danger. So you are as safe as me. After they let me go, I will take you to eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks."

Xiaogua couldn't listen to these nonsense at this time. It was thinking about how to escape from this human being, which was related to its own life.

Xiang Luoxi was not worried about his situation at all. Perhaps it was because he had never seen the methods of the man in black before, so he felt very safe. Little did he know that he was already in danger.
