Even if a fisherman enters an infinite game, he still has to cast a rod

Judging from the emperor's tone, he has obviously adapted well to his new identity.

Huo Hu held his forehead with his hand and whispered: "Zi'an..."

Seeing his father's embarrassed expression, Huo Zian seemed to have just realized it and said in surprise: "It turned out to be you. Sorry, I didn't recognize you because you were wearing a mask."

Jiang Yuan asked: "So, you plan to stay and become the sect leader?"

"How is this possible?" Huo Zian straightened his father's slightly wrinkled sleeves:

"I had no choice but to kill that monster, but this does not affect my position. We will work together with everyone to complete the game and return home."

He said it easily and innocently, as if he had not just murdered his father and usurped the throne, but had just picked up a toy.

But the two words "go home" sounded particularly harsh to the players' ears.

Someone sighed: "Hey, actually it's okay for you to stay."

"It's good to be a sect leader."

"Yeah, the Security Department isn't a good thing anyway."

Some players even cast envious glances at the father and son, which left Prime Minister Huo puzzled.

"Ah? What nonsense are you talking about?" He looked at Yu Du in confusion:

"Captain Yu, what happened to them?"

Yu Du said calmly: "This is what happened..."

He briefly explained what happened to everyone in the Tianshanfang, the long-standing conspiracy of the Security Department, and the revenge suffered by Huo Guangyao.

Hearing that Huo Guangyao was still alive, Huo Hu looked around the crowd and asked anxiously:

"What about the Fire Team members? Where are they now?"

Wuqu: "When I first came out, I wanted to persuade him again, but he kicked me and ran away. Now I don't know where he is."

He then pointed to the big bump on his head and said, "Look, this bump on my head is his masterpiece."

Jiang Yuan observed the reactions of the Huo family father and son, and asked with interest: "You don't seem particularly surprised?"

"Well, actually we have found some clues here."

Huo Hu honestly took out a sterling silver ring from his pocket and showed it to everyone:

"I found a set of pilgrimage chimes made from the finger bones of tens of thousands of people in the gift that the Northern Emperor of Heaven was preparing to give to the Queen Mother of the West. There was a wedding ring hidden inside, and a name was written on the inner circle: Pan Xin."

Wu Qu: "Isn't that... the former captain of the 18th detachment?!"

Huo Hu nodded and said solemnly: "Yes, I originally thought it was just a coincidence, but now combined with the clues from your side, things may not be that simple."

According to the official regulations of the Security Department, any strange hole where an executive officer was sacrificed must be recovered, and there must be no loopholes that slipped through the net. This captain was obviously also hidden.

Ouyang Ming: "Could it be that not only Tian Peng, but all the sect leaders who came to attend the Peach Banquet were raised by the Security Department!?"

"It is very likely." Zhuge Jing deduced:

"The Security Department probably didn't expect that these ghost caves would aggregate to their current size. The initial plan was just to raise the ghost caves, conduct experiments, and raise props normally."

"But the Peach Banquet caused them to lose control of these ghost caves and failed to feed them, so they sent us here. In name, we are here to recover the ghost caves, but in reality..."

Wu Qu said viciously: "Just wipe their asses!"

But no matter how angry one is, one has to finish the game to settle the score. The most urgent thing is to continue the game and poison all the gods who attend the banquet.

But before setting off, Yu Du told the players, "Mo You and Xu Lulu are the only ones missing. They should be nearby. Please look for them when the food is served. If you can save them, please save them. If you can't, please signal me."

Some passengers complained: "Forget it, sir. Who will care about them now that things have come to this?"

"A stupid saint and a vicious woman, these two women will only hold us back!"

"Don't sacrifice more of our people just to save two people."

"The Security Department won't care whether we live or die anyway, so Captain Yu, don't waste your time worrying about it."

The executive officer of the Seventh Squadron also said, "Although it is the executive officer's responsibility to do his job and save the people from danger, but Chief, that flight attendant Xu is indeed not a good person. We don't need to be too picky about the details and can just muddle through it."

Yu Du only said: "It is my responsibility to take everyone out."

Seeing that everyone wanted to persuade him again, Ouyang Ming couldn't hold back any longer: "Oh, our captain has always been like this, otherwise how could he be known as the CEO with a 100% rescue rate!"

Zhuge Jing pushed up his glasses and said, "You don't want to be abandoned when you are trapped, right?"

After these words were spoken, the players were speechless.

Listening to the conversation, Jiang Yuan stood aside, folding his hands in silence.

What Xiao Yuer said was [my responsibility] instead of [executive officer’s responsibility], because what he followed from beginning to end was not the Security Department, but the back of a certain coward.

No wonder he could teach a stubborn disciple like Mo You.

Oh, what a sin I have committed, Jiang Yuan thought.

At midnight, the moon is at its zenith.

Amid a series of shrill trumpet sounds, the Queen Mother of the West finally arrived. Green feathers fell from the sky, and the gates of the Yaochi Palace opened to welcome the gods.

As guests of honor, the Huo family father and son followed the deformed gods and entered the Yaochi Palace, stepping on the light green mist that emerged from the palace.

The sound of shrill and noisy dance music came from the palace. The fairy children covered their ears and stood at the door to resist the devilish sound. A pheasant dressed as a steward jumped out of the palace, saw them, and said in surprise:

"What are you doing here???"

Jiang Yuan replied honestly: "Waiting for you to call for the food."

The chief steward of pheasants was so angry that his hat tilted. "Send, send, send your grandma's food! Those six fat worms went to pick peaches, but they haven't been delivered yet. The Queen Mother just killed a group of immortal officials who didn't do their job well! Send the food in quickly!!! Do you want to be beheaded too!!!"

"Yes Yes Yes!"

The players immediately picked up the food boxes, lowered their heads and ran into the palace through the side doors on both sides.

As you step over the high threshold, you will see eighteen freshly carved dragon spines supporting this heavenly palace, which is even more sinister than the Senluo Palace.

The fairy mist is blue-gray, and the intricate treasures are dazzling and sparkling.

In the middle of the dance floor, there was a pile of freshly torn corpses. They were all immortal officials who were affected because the peaches had not arrived.

The head of the God of Land in Pantao Garden was tilted on the ground, with a bloodshot eye hanging out, staring blankly at the players coming in.

The graceful fairies were jumping barefoot on the pile of corpses, making blood fly. Their bodies had long been hollowed out and filled with wax, their hair was burning like candle wicks, and their skins were still dancing.

The legendary Queen Mother of the West was at the highest point in the hall, hidden behind a curtain made of living eyeballs. Green mist constantly permeated from inside, making it impossible to see her true appearance.

Hundreds of immortal sect leaders, according to their ranks, lined up on both sides of the palace, watching the show with their necks shrunk in fear, fearing that they would be the next to be torn to pieces.

The fairies came in, opened the lacquer food boxes in an orderly manner, and cooperated with each other to place the prepared delicacies on the table one by one.

They were originally quite nervous, but now these level-extinction gate masters were frightened into quails by the Queen Mother of the West. They were all stunned and looked even more nervous than them, which relieved a lot of pressure on the players.

Jiang Yuan and Yu Du carried the largest food box, walked up the high stairs, and set up the table for the Queen Mother of the West.

This carved jade table was thirty meters wide. Yu Du took the dishes from the Qiankun food box, and Jiang Yuan was responsible for setting the table. While they were moving, they took advantage of the highest point and glanced around the venue, but they did not see any trace of Mo You and Xu Lulu.

The most likely place for people to hide now is behind the curtain of Queen Mother of the West.

However, the fairy boy’s status is low, so it is difficult for him to get in.

At this moment, a sharp voice that could not be distinguished between male and female came from behind the curtain.

“Why are all the dishes you serve covered?”

Jiang Yuan calmly bowed his hands and said in a hoarse voice, "Your Highness, Chief Chef Tianpeng said that this is a new dish that he has painstakingly developed for a hundred years to entertain the immortals. He wants to give Your Highness a big surprise."

"A big surprise?"

The voice inside teased, "Interesting, come in and let me see how big the surprise is."
