Chapter 778 Taking advantage of him, waiting for him to come again.
The visitor was none other than Sun Cheng, who had risen to prominence in the sect in the past few days.

Everyone in the Longevity Sect knows that this Junior Brother Sun has had a great stroke of luck, climbing up to the mysterious Yang Marrow under the Ma Yi Ancestor, and now has a lot of pills waiting to be used. He has now made a name for himself.

Which cultivator at the Divine Transformation Realm within the sect could have such an opportunity?
Yao Ning'er and Sun Cheng were originally disciples of Ma Qi, and could be considered "fellow disciples". Although the relationship between fellow disciples in the Changsheng Sect, a demonic sect, is often distorted, there is still some bond between them.

Sun Cheng greeted his senior brother with a smile.

"Senior Brother Yao, Senior Brother Dugu, we've met before."

He bowed and then said, "Judging from Senior Brother Dugu's demeanor, the pivotal moment of establishing the dynasty is just around the corner. We should take advantage of this situation and quickly call him Senior Brother, otherwise he'll become Uncle Dugu in a few days."

Dugu Rou simply smiled, her eyes filled with a feminine charm.

"Old Yao, didn't you realize that Junior Brother Sun has climbed up to Elder Yang? He's not the same as before, and he's here to make fun of us."

“That’s right, Junior Brother Sun isn’t that kind of person.”

Yao Ning'er grinned and said, "You saw this kid raise it just now?"

"No no."

Sun Cheng said, "I must have been seeing things."

Dugu Rou still wore that sinister smile, while Yao Ning'er frowned and spoke.

"If you can't see it, you can't see it."

"Senior brother, have all these people been eliminated?"

Sun Cheng asked Yao Ning'er.

"That's good. What, Junior Brother Sun, do you have other plans?"

"It's nothing. It's just that Lingyu Hall is short-handed. Mr. Yang instructed me that if any new disciples are eliminated this time, I should not be picky and should bring them all to him for service."

As Sun Cheng spoke, he pointed to Lü Zheng, who was still kneeling below.

"Senior brothers, if you're done here, I'll take them and leave now."

The entire venue was silent.

Although Sun Cheng's voice wasn't loud, everyone present could hear him clearly.

All the disciples who were eliminated in this examination will be taken away by him to Lingyu Palace for service.

Although most of the newly initiated disciples did not know what the Lingyu Hall was or what the words "Yang Sui" meant, they all sensed a subtle change in the atmosphere.

Perhaps following this Uncle Sun to Lingyu Hall as a servant would be much better than suffering torment here in a routine manner.

Those disciples who had been eliminated wanted to cheer, but under the ruthless gazes of Yao Ning'er and Dugu Rou, they dared not make any further moves.

The disciples who had gone to great lengths to stay behind were still whispering among themselves, but there were some things they kept to themselves and couldn't say directly.

Yao Ning'er and Dugu Rou also remained silent.

"Since that person needs them, Junior Brother Sun, you should find some useful people. What's the point of having these scoundrels?"

Yao Ning'er then laughed and said, "They're just a bunch of good-for-nothings..."

The disciples below all glared at him angrily.

"What you say is true, but at least they can join our sect, which is better than being good-for-nothings."

Sun Cheng was inwardly cursing the two people in front of him.

If you need people for your Yang marrow, just let go and that's it. What are you babbling about with me for?

"Elder Yang, do you want all of these substandard ones?"

Dugu Rou asked another question.

Su Che's current position within the Longevity Cult is very special.

According to the Demon Lord in Hemp Robes, Yang Sui was his attendant, or servant.

Although they were called servants, they were treated in the same way as the two masters of the Void Steps, Hua Gu and Jin Yunu.

This has no place in the original doctrines and regulations of the Changsheng Sect.

To make up for it, Hua Gu gave Yang Sui the title of Elder of Offering.

Although this position is not as prestigious as that of the Eight Meridians Chief, who is the actual head of the Longevity Sect, it still represents respect for a master of the Void Step.

This position was originally reserved by the Longevity Sect for outsiders who were not from the sect but were capable enough to fight.

If it were just ordinary offerings, that would be one thing. The problem is that, whether it's Hua Gu or Jin Yunu, everyone knows that the origin of Yang Sui is too special and absolutely cannot be treated as an ordinary outsider.

Everything will have to wait until the Demon Lord in Hemp Robes emerges from seclusion in three months, and only then will the outcome be clear. Dugu Rou, as a rather "shining" figure within the Hanako-ryu lineage, knows more about Yang Sui.

He knew Elder Yang's attainments in alchemy. The Five Dragons Locked in the Netherworld Pill had not been seen in the sect for many years, and it was a crucial step for someone like him, who had reached the Divine Realm, to advance towards the Returning Elixir.

The two sides are currently negotiating a big deal, with Fatty Wen and Sun Cheng in the middle.

If it succeeds, one of the three Netherworld Lock Five Dragon Pills will belong to Dugu Rou.

He clenched his fist and looked at Sun Cheng, asking a question.

"Does that include this kid too?"

Sun Cheng glanced at Lü Zheng on the ground.

His knees were probably ruined, and his whole body was covered in blood. He was speechless and lay on the ground like a stubborn rock, his eyes coldly staring at the large cauldron in front of him.

This kid...

"So it depends on what you two senior brothers think. If you two don't want this good-for-nothing, then I'll take him away. If he continues to stay in the sect, then it has nothing to do with me."

Yao Ning'er frowned.

He couldn't figure out what Sun Cheng meant.

The reason why Lü Zheng was in such a difficult position was because he had accepted a bribe from Dugu Rou.

This doesn't mean Yao Ning'er has to follow the wishes of the Hanako-ryu lineage. By eliminating this kid, he has already given Dugu Rou an explanation.

Is Sun Cheng's stunt at this time because Lingyu Palace is genuinely short of manpower, or is he trying to use this kid to rebel?
Yao Ning'er really couldn't guess.

“This kid was acting strangely just now, and his strength was inexplicable. Let’s keep him here and examine him properly.”

Dugu Rou looked at Sun Cheng's face and said.

It must be eerie, otherwise Yang Sui wouldn't have specifically asked me to bring him back.

"This kid couldn't even lift the cauldron, what's so strange about him? Did I just see things wrong?"

Sun Cheng still had a smile on his face.

"Senior Brother Dugu, you wouldn't say that I, Senior Brother Yao, am being unfair and deliberately targeting these new disciples, would you?"

What the hell is it to me?

Yao Ning'er cursed under his breath, but he was also a notorious mad dog, so he immediately cursed back.

"Old Sun, who the hell are you trying to blame? You've climbed up the social ladder, so you're going to trample on your own brothers?"

"My dear senior brother, I was just joking."

Sun Cheng said with a smile, "The main problem is that they are in dire need of people over there. They just refined some poison pills and are waiting for people to test them. That Mr. Yang said that since I can't find anyone to come, I should take them myself. Please have pity on me, senior brothers."

Why would I stop you?

Yao Ning'er changed the subject: "Take them away quickly. If you don't have enough people, come back to me. I can't be fair to everyone, so I'll always give you some."

"Yes."

Sun Cheng smiled and looked at Dugu Rou on the other side, saying, "We are the real brothers, even though we are not from the same father or mother, my brother."

Dugu Rou returned the smile.

"Since Mr. Yang is of use, Junior Brother Sun, please do as you see fit."

"Easy to say."

Sun Cheng cupped his hands in greeting and called out to the onlookers.

"What are you standing there for? Lift this kid up, let's go to Lingyu Palace together."

The disciples who had been eliminated responded in unison, and two of them immediately dragged up Lü Zheng, who was still muttering to himself on the ground, and followed Sun Cheng away in a swaggering manner.

Yao Ning'er frowned and asked Dugu Rou beside her.

"What did you hear that guy surnamed Lü mutter just now?"

Dugu Rou's face remained calm.

He said, "Again."

Yao Ning'er spat viciously to the side.

"Then let's wait for him to come again."
