Chapter 690 Bitter Wine Enters the Throat

Although Li Xuan's pie was big and round, Nilubaier just smiled politely and was not too moved.

As a saint of a religion, she was not the first to venture into the world, so she would not be deceived by these sweet words.

Nilubaier needed to see more than the beautiful future outlined by Li Xuan.

"Master Xuan, let me be clear with you."

"I will be the only one leading the missionary work in Daxing this time."

"The subsequent main missionary team will arrive in Daxing in autumn at the earliest."

Nilubaier's words made Li Xuan frown.

Now it is only halfway through spring. If the missionary team of the Holy Fire Religion arrives in autumn, it will take at least three or four months, and the daylily will be cold by then.

It is obvious that the Holy Fire Religion does not want to wade into the muddy water of Daxing and get involved in the dispute between Emperor Yongyuan and King Zheng.

At least, they don't want to get involved too deeply.

"Emperor Yongyuan promised your Holy Fire Sect to preach in Daxing, but didn't expect that you would only get this attitude in return?"

Li Xuan stopped talking and sent a voice message directly.

Seeing Li Xuan shaking his head in disappointment, Nilubaier smiled and said nothing.

Seeing Nilubaier not saying anything, Li Xuan also lost the will to continue the conversation.

"Since you have nothing to say, then you Holy Fire Sect should wait until autumn, until everything is settled."

"But I have to tell you that I will never offer this price again at that time."

"You will never get it again!"

Since Nilubaier is hesitant and unwilling to bet on them, Li Xuan doesn't have to waste his words, as if they are begging the Holy Fire Sect.

People who dare to bet only when they have a full chance of winning are just icing on the cake, and such allies are dispensable.

No matter what the outcome between Emperor Yongyuan and King Zheng is, Li Xuan will definitely protect the people around him, otherwise he is not the man of destiny!

Li Xuan turned and got into Princess Ankang's arms, looking like he was going to leave.

Ayimu, who was standing by, couldn't help but look embarrassed when she saw the sudden breakdown of the conversation.

"Master Xuan, Master."

She called both sides, trying to get them to talk and negotiate.

But Li Xuan and Nilubaier had reached the critical moment of the negotiation, and neither of them was willing to give in first.

If they give in now, it would be difficult to talk in the future.

Princess Ankang also believed in Li Xuan very much. Seeing that Li Xuan didn't want to talk anymore, she immediately hugged him and stood up.

"Since the conversation has been finished and there is nothing else, we will leave first."

Princess Ankang's words stunned Nilubaier.

Ayimu and Xie Qingmo also looked at Nilubaier anxiously.

Nilubaier thought that Princess Ankang was Li Xuan's master and would persuade him to think more about Daxing, but she didn't expect Princess Ankang to be so straightforward. She stood up and hugged Li Xuan and was about to say goodbye and leave.

Nilubaier immediately smiled again and said to them:

"Princess, don't worry. When you arrive at the Holy Fire Religion, I have to show my hospitality as a host."

"Or is it that Nilubaier doesn't have the honor to entertain you?"

Nilubaier suddenly changed her attitude. Although she didn't mention the business of cooperation, she looked like she was sincere in keeping them and entertaining them.

Since Nilubaier had said so much, Princess Ankang naturally had to give her face.

Nilubaier waved to Ayimu, and Ayimu went down to make arrangements happily.

In Ayimu's opinion, as long as they could keep communicating, there was hope of easing the relationship.

She knew her master very well. If she hadn't been sincere enough, Nilubaier would not have come here in person.

And Nilubaier came alone, obviously she wanted to hide something from other people in the Holy Fire Religion.

In Ayimu's opinion, the master didn't care about Li Xuan as much as he seemed.

It's just that the master always schemes with the people in the sect, and seems to have forgotten how to be honest with others.

In this regard, Ayimu thinks that the master is wrong.

"How can you be so rude to Master Xuan?"

In a moment, a sumptuous banquet was placed on their table.

Not only that, a door of the private room was opened, revealing a small and exquisite stage behind.

On the stage, several skilled singers performed dances as a condiment for their meal.

The restaurant is elegant, with golden voices and beautiful music.

The banquet and performance were carefully arranged, and the three little ones, who were not very happy, were in a much better mood at this time.

No wonder people who do business always like to talk in such occasions.

This bad mood can also become good, and once the mood is good, it will be decided.

During the banquet, Nilubaier was no longer as difficult as before, but talked and laughed, making the atmosphere at the banquet relaxed and happy.

In addition to talking about the details of life with the three children, Nilubaier mainly talked with Sharon.

"Senior sister, how have you been doing these days?"

"I heard that Ignis is dead?"

As a witness of what happened that year, Nilubaier was also very curious about it.

Sharon nodded, and drank some wine during the banquet.

She talked about what happened before, how Ignis died in her arms, and how she woke up in the palace, where she was taken care of by Li Xuan and the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and now she lives a good life in Jingyang Palace.

At the beginning, when Sharon and Ignis met, they were both very young.

At this time, there were only two sisters left.

"I didn't expect that Ignis could practice to the second level with the skills he had learned, and even reached the stage of transformation into armor."

Nelubair was deeply shocked.

The Holy Fire Sect's Immortal Body is truly remarkable, and it is one of the few remaining yin and yang techniques in the world.

But the first half of the Holy Fire Immortal Body can only be practiced by saints specially selected by the Holy Fire Cult, and it is of little use to a man like Ignis.

But by secretly learning the first half of the Holy Fire Immortal Body, Ignis actually understood the technique that suits him.

Although it was a magic skill that caused his character to change drastically after practicing it, and even Sharon wanted to kill him, no one could deny his solid second-level strength.

But even a genius like Ignis suffered a lot of humiliation when he first joined the Holy Fire Cult.

Their master was afraid that Sharon, who was new to the world, would be influenced by men, so he tried every means to drive Ignis out. If Sharon hadn't been fond of Ignis at the time and always protected him, she would have been kicked out long ago. Killer.

But in the end, this incident eventually became the cause that pushed the two of them, and even the entire Holy Fire Sect, into the abyss.

Originally, people like Ignis could stay in the Holy Fire Cult and become a couple with Sharon, and the Holy Fire Cult's strength could be further improved.

Ignis was born in a small country in the Western Region. If he could make a name for himself in the Holy Fire Cult, it would also be beneficial to the Holy Fire Cult's control of the Western Region.

Even a holy place of martial arts with faith like the Holy Fire Sect is not immune to vulgarity.

It is inevitable for disciples in a religion to form cliques.

Where there are people, it is impossible to avoid this kind of group behavior.

Therefore, birth is a very useful label.

The country, region, family a person comes from...

These factors will become a key consideration for the Holy Fire Sect when selecting new disciples.

After becoming a disciple of the Holy Fire Sect, one has the more distinctive labels of master and inheritance.

The only difference Ignis had was that he was born in a small and unknown country in the Western Region. His family did not have enough strength, and he himself was not able to break out of the siege on his own.

After joining the Holy Fire Cult, there were Sharon and Nelubair's masters, people who regarded him as an unstable factor.

There are also other cultists who view Ignis as an external threat.

After all, if there is an outsider in the teaching, more power and resources will be taken away.

At that time, Sharon was still too young and had a smooth journey to become a saint. She could not understand the difficulties Ignis faced after joining the Holy Fire Cult.

And Ignis also has the dignity of a man and does not want Sharon to solve all problems.

After he lost to Sharon, it was enough to dampen his confidence.

After that, I even wanted to regain some face in front of this outstanding girl of the same age.

And all of this leads to a tragedy with no winners.

On his way out of the Holy Fire Cult, Ignis killed many Holy Fire Cult members who had bullied him.

This is also why Ignis has such a high-profile fatwa.

As a witness of that year, Nilubair couldn't help but feel sad after hearing what happened to Ignis.

"Sister."

Seeing Sharon crying silently, Nelubair also felt a little distressed.

Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!

"Well, there are some things I didn't understand until now."

Sharon sighed as she wiped away her tears with her fingers.

Nelubair didn't know what to say to comfort Sharon, so she just held her hand silently.

"Master, how are you doing now?"

Sharon wiped away her tears and asked Nilubair.

"Fortunately, even though I am old, I am still very angry when I am scolded." Nilubair gave a wry smile.

At the same time, a hint of concern flashed vaguely in her eyes.

"Sister, Master, she was doing it for your own good back then."

After hesitating for a long time, Nilubair finally persuaded him.

She was afraid that Sharon would be angry with the master because of what happened to Ignis.

The Holy Fire Cult is already in enough chaos. If there is any more chaos, Nelubair will want to break the pot.

"Junior sister, don't worry." Sharon smiled slightly.

"Let bygones be bygones."

"Now I just want to serve Master Axuan with peace of mind."

Sharon spoke sincerely, and Nelubair breathed a sigh of relief.

But then Nilu Baier changed the topic and changed the topic:

"Senior sister, according to what you just said, Master Axuan led people to kill Ignis, who is in the second-level realm?"

"That's right, it's just that I wasn't conscious at the time. I only remember the scene when Ignis was beheaded."

Nilubair nodded and didn't ask any more questions, not wanting to mention Sharon's sadness too much.

But this incident forced Nilubair to reconsider the strength of Li Xuan and Emperor Yongyuan.

A second-level master cannot be killed just because he wants to.

If the other party is determined to escape, it is impossible unless they are fully prepared.

But according to what Sharon said before, there were actually not many second-grade warriors present at that time, and it was just a two-on-one situation.

At most, including Sharon's early consumption, it's just three against one.

But Sharon was delirious at the time, and there was no possibility of cooperation at all. Instead, she was a threat that needed to be guarded against.

In this case, kill Ignis, who can turn his realm into armor?

Nilubair put herself in his shoes and felt that it might be difficult for her to do it herself.

"It seems that Emperor Yongyuan's strength is not as bad as the outside world says."

Nilubair secretly thought.

There is no way, she is a saint of the Holy Fire Cult, so she must think more carefully.

Otherwise, if the Holy Fire Sect is really destroyed in her hands, she will become a sinner for the ages.

"Senior sister, Ignis's technique..."

While the two sisters were talking, they couldn't help but look at Li Xuan.

Li Xuan heard their conversation clearly, but he pretended not to hear and just immersed himself in eating and drinking.

The two girls also followed suit. Accompanied by Ayimu and Xie Qingmo, they just enjoyed the food and the songs and dances, and they were almost too happy to miss Shu.

"The skill is in the hands of Lord Xuan, it is his trophy."

Sharon said clearly.

Nilubair also understood that it was impossible to ask for it with empty teeth.

"Junior sister, I feel sorry for you when it comes to this matter."

"If it weren't for me, you wouldn't be facing such a difficult situation as a saint now."

"If possible, I still hope you can consider cooperating with Master A Xuan."

Sharon said apologetically.

In fact, when a saint is passed on, the previous saint will teach the next saint the skills.

But due to Sharon's accident, the handover between her and Nelubair was not smooth.

Nerubair was originally a naughty disciple in the eyes of the master, inferior to Sharon in all aspects.

But something happened to Sharon later, and Nirubair had no choice but to take over the task at the critical moment. However, the inheritance did not go smoothly, so she could only practice the exercises by herself without the help of the previous saint.

As for their master, his character has become even stricter since Sharon's accident, and he doesn't believe that Nilubair has the ability to be a good saint.

This is also one of the reasons why the Holy Fire Religion is now full of factions.

Speaking of this, Nilubair finally had a chance to complain after so many years, and immediately said to Sharon:

"Senior sister, my senior master has always disliked me since I was little."

"You have always been praised and I have been scolded."

"I thought I would just mess around like this for the rest of my life."

"I never thought that a big responsibility would suddenly come from the sky. It would crush me."

"You don't know, the Holy Fire Sect now..."

Nilubair is getting more and more excited here.

Seeing that her voice was getting louder and louder, Xie Qingmo hurriedly invited everyone to eat and drink to cover up her sister's ugly appearance.

Ayimu didn't know these past events of his master, so he curiously pricked up his ears and eavesdropped.

The three little ones were no better.

But Nerubair was a master after all. He soon noticed that everyone had become quiet and realized that he had lost his composure. He quickly coughed and put on his airs again.

Sharon couldn't help feeling sad and sorry when she saw that her former naughty junior sister was now trying to act like an adult.

"Junior sister, I've suffered a lot from you these past years."

Nilubair had just regained her composure, but Sharon's words made her eyes red again.

"Sister, the test of the Holy Fire is too painful for us."

Nelubair said, drank the wine in one gulp, and sighed bitterly.

After saying that, she turned to look at Li Xuan.

"Lord Axuan, I want Ignis's technique."

"You give me the skills, and I, Nilubair, will do my best to help you deal with Prince Zheng in my own name."
