387: Chapter 387 Ying Xuanzi: Are you testing me? First Meeting with Ying Huanhuan

Ying Xuanzi felt that his Opportunity had arrived.

A Samsara Realm powerhouse had arrived at the Dao Sect politely.

If he could establish a connection, he would only need him to preach a few times to have a chance to touch upon Reincarnation.

A Wheel Turning Stage powerhouse who had touched upon Reincarnation could easily deal with three Wheel Turning Stage powerhouses who had not, all at once.

Their Dao Sect's Enshrined Elder was about to have a Breakthrough to the Wheel Turning Stage; if he himself touched upon Reincarnation, the Dao Sect would have absolutely nothing to fear from the Yuan Sect in terms of high-level combat power.

By then, he wouldn't dare say he could seek justice for his once most valued Disciple, Zhou Tong, but at the very least, getting back the corpse detained by the Yuan Sect would not be a problem.

"I am Gu Han, Hall Master of Xuanwu Hall. Sect Master Ying, you may address me by my name, or just call me Fellow Daoist," Gu Han said with a smile.

"Then I shall be bold and address Your Excellency as Fellow Daoist." Ying Xuanzi followed the flow, smiling as he spoke: "May I ask what you need help with, Fellow Daoist, that brought you to our Dao Sect?"

If the Dao Sect could help Gu Han, that would be establishing a connection.

"I have come to the Dao Sect for three things." Gu Han held up three fingers: "First, I intend to take away the Great Desolation Tablet."

"Second, I intend to take a young woman as my personal maid."

"Third, it is to exterminate an Otherworld Demon."

Hearing this, Ying Xuanzi's heart tightened.

The Great Desolation Tablet contained the Dao Sect's strongest Cultivation Technique, the Great Desolation Scripture. Although since the Dao Sect's founding, the number of people who could comprehend it could be counted on one hand, the power of the Great Desolation Scripture was known to the whole world.

Gu Han said he wanted to take it away right off the bat, which made it feel like he had come with ill intentions.

As for wanting to take a young woman as a personal maid.

To tell the truth, being a maid for a Samsara Realm powerhouse was, in terms of future prospects, a pie falling from the sky.

The last point left him shocked and trembling. As a Wheel Turning Stage powerhouse, he naturally knew about the Otherworld Demons that had once ravaged the Tian Xuan Continent and unleashed a disaster of slaughter.

Yet he had never known that an Otherworld Demon actually existed within the Dao Sect; he hadn't sensed a trace of it.

He had once accepted an invitation from the Palace Master of the Nine Heavens Taiqing Palace to exterminate demons together.

He couldn't possibly have had no sense of such an evil existence.

Unless... the opponent's strength was far above his own.

Thinking of this, a chill ran through Ying Xuanzi's Primordial Spirit.

"Sect Master Ying, do not overthink it." Gu Han saw his thoughts from the change in Ying Xuanzi's expression and spoke in a cool tone: "The first and third matters are actually the same thing."

"Sect Master Ying should have heard that there exist Eight Great Ancestral Symbols and Nine Great Divine Objects in this world. In the ancient era, this Great Desolation Tablet was one of the top-ranked super Divine Objects."

"The Great Desolation Tablet is here specifically to suppress an Otherworld Devil King. That Otherworld Demon Emperor is equivalent to a Samsara Realm powerhouse who has passed one Reincarnation Tribulation."

Sect Master Ying: !!!

If he hadn't misunderstood.

Gu Han was saying that his Dao Sect was built on top of an Otherworld Devil King comparable to a First-Stage Samsara Realm powerhouse!?

If not for the Great Desolation Tablet suppressing it, the people of the Dao Sect would likely have all been wiped out.

"I know that one of the Dao Sect's four great ultimate arts is the Great Desolation Scripture. This is a top-tier Heavenly Martial Art created by the Spirit of the Great Desolation Tablet. After I take away the Great Desolation Tablet and resolve that Otherworld Devil King, I will leave this Cultivation Technique behind." Gu Han continued.

"Thank you!" Ying Xuanzi immediately cupped his fists to thank him.

Given Gu Han's strength, he could have just taken it by force; explaining so much meant it was impossible for him to be lying.

Helping the Dao Sect resolve a hidden danger like the Otherworld Devil King, and taking the Great Desolation Tablet as compensation was only right and proper.

Not to mention, Gu Han also promised to leave behind the Great Desolation Scripture.

His Dao Sect had never been the owner of the Great Desolation Tablet from beginning to end; otherwise, the number of people who could be recognized by the Tablet Spirit to comprehend the Great Desolation Scripture would not be so few.

And now, Gu Han said he would leave behind the Great Desolation Scripture, which meant that as long as he was willing, he could allow Elders and Disciples with sufficient merit or good talent to learn it.

It was simply a profit.

"Fellow Daoist mentioned wanting to take a personal maid; I wonder if you have chosen one?" Ying Xuanzi thought of the one remaining matter Gu Han had mentioned.

Being taken as a personal maid by Gu Han was, in a sense, an Opportunity to ascend to the heavens.

"I have." Gu Han nodded slightly, his eyes unreadable: "It is precisely your youngest daughter, Ying Huanhuan."

Sect Master Ying: ?

"This..." Ying Xuanzi instinctively wanted to refuse.

Admittedly, being a personal maid for a Samsara Realm powerhouse was an Opportunity.

But Ying Huanhuan had him, a Wheel Turning Stage powerhouse, as her own father. She could live the life of the Dao Sect Master's daughter, the Second Young Miss; why go be a maid for someone else, serving others and having to read their expressions?

But he was also afraid that if he refused, he would anger Gu Han.

"My strength is at the Peak of the Third-Stage Samsara Realm." A smile appeared in Gu Han's eyes.

Terrifying!!!

Ying Xuanzi's legs nearly went weak.

Peak of the Third-Stage Samsara Realm; that was an existence standing at the very pinnacle of this world!

It was no exaggeration to say that if the eight super Sects of the Eastern Xuan Region were tied together, they wouldn't be enough for him to wipe out with one hand.

With such a powerhouse choosing Ying Huanhuan as a personal maid, he would have to find time to see if the graves of his Ying family ancestors were shrouded in smoke.

"If she becomes my personal maid, I will gift this item to you." Gu Han took out a bodhi seed: "This comes from a spiritual plant in my possession called the Bodhi Ancient Tree, and it is called a bodhi seed."

"The Bodhi Ancient Tree is also a creature at the Peak of the Third-Stage Samsara Realm. It has another name called the Wisdom Reincarnation Tree, which is naturally able to help people with Reincarnation."

"If you refine this bodhi seed, you can reach the Samsara Realm!"

Sect Master Ying: !!!

You are using this to test a Wheel Turning Stage powerhouse.

What Wheel Turning Stage powerhouse could withstand such a test.

"Fellow Daoist, no, Hall Master Gu, I have no objections to letting Huanhuan be your maid." Ying Xuanzi's gaze was burning, and he swallowed hard.

Feeling the Reincarnation fluctuations emanating from the bodhi seed, he could feel the Samsara Realm beckoning to him.

By then, even if the three sons of the Yuan Sect came together, they would be nothing more than three dogs on the side of the road.

But the last shred of reason kept him from agreeing immediately; after all, that was his beloved youngest daughter.

"Huanhuan has been pampered and spoiled since she was young; I have indulged her until she is lawless, and her temper is quite arrogant. I fear she might not make a good personal maid, and she may resist doing this."

"Regarding this matter, I feel it needs to be her own decision. What do you think?"

"That is only right." Gu Han nodded with a smile: "Then let us go see Ying Huanhuan and let her decide for herself, how about that?"

Ying Huanhuan was now sixteen, exactly the age of innocence and carefree joy.

"Please!"

Sect Master Ying made a gesture of invitation.

Gu Han lifted his foot and followed him into the Dao Sect.

The two went directly to the main hall. Ying Xuanzi immediately took out spiritual tea and fruit to entertain Gu Han, sent a message to his two daughters, and did not forget to send a message to the Enshrined Elder to explain the situation.

The Enshrined Elder appeared immediately to accompany Ying Xuanzi in entertaining Gu Han.

Before long, two figures appeared at the entrance of the main hall. A lively voice arrived before the person: "Daddy, why are you looking for me? I was just reasoning with that dull-witted Great Desolation Tablet, wanting to learn the Great Desolation Scripture."

"I felt like I was about to succeed, but my sister interrupted me."

"She is really... Ouch!"
