She glanced at Guan Ning dimly and said, "You have passed my test."

"That was just a test from me."

Guan Ning smiled and thought, if I was frightened, the Holy Lotus Sect would probably go along with it, right?

He said this because he was not scared, but he saw through it but did not say it out loud.

"Thank you for your understanding, Master!"

The old woman waved her hand: "Sit down."

Guan Ning sat down again and subconsciously covered his chest.

The old woman said, "You have suffered serious internal injuries. I'm afraid you won't be able to walk for a while."

"I will wait here until Mei Niang wakes up, and then make plans for the next step." Guan Ning said frankly.

The old woman nodded, her expression becoming more agreeable. Suddenly, she said, "Over the years, Taoist Wuxu has relied on Zhao Tai to hunt down our Holy Lotus Sect. Over three hundred people have been captured and tortured, and some have even been made into human pills."

"They say we are demons, but they are the real devils."

"By eliminating Zhao Tai and Taoist Wuxu, you have helped my Holy Lotus Sect eliminate a major threat."

"Shall I give you a gift?"

Guan Ning was surprised: "Gift?"

"Master, this is unacceptable."

"This action was a joint effort between our two families, and Mei Niang even took the blame for me. No matter how shameless I am, I am embarrassed to accept your gift again!" He was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

The old woman smiled and said, "You will definitely like this gift."

"Of course, it's not given to you for free."

Guan Ning was curious: "What gift?"

"Zhao Tai's personal arsenal!" the old woman blurted out.

Guan Ning was shocked. Private arsenal?

Then he was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. It turned out that he was giving Zhao Tai's things to himself!

The old woman said, "Half a year ago, the Holy Lotus Sect's spies discovered a big secret of Zhao Tai."

"This man harbored ulterior motives and secretly built a private arsenal in Guangling, storing a large amount of supplies and weapons. Although the exact number is unknown, based on the information we have gathered, the amount inside must be astonishing!"

“And the number of people who know about this is no more than a handful.”

"Now that Zhao Tai is dead, Guangling City is leaderless. It will take at least a month for the capital to take over. This window of opportunity is a good opportunity for you."

"I know that you have great ambitions and you definitely need this thing." The old woman's eyes were meaningful, as if she knew a lot about Guan Ning.

Guan Ning was startled and thought to himself that this old leader was indeed a veteran of the world!

"Ahem." He coughed twice. He was indeed tempted and asked tentatively, "Then may I ask, Master, where is this arsenal?"

The old leader immediately revealed a meaningful smile.

Guan Ning chuckled and did not deny it.

"Also, you just said it wasn't free, what do I need to give you?"

The old leader said calmly, "I don't ask for much. All I need is your promise to support the Holy Lotus Sect."

Hearing this, Guan Ning was stunned.

To support the Holy Lotus Sect? This is a simple statement, but it also has a lot of profound meaning.

The old leader muttered to himself, "Over the years, the Holy Lotus Sect has been unacceptable to both upright people and the imperial court. We have been hiding here and there, and finally found a place to stay outside the Yumen Pass."

“But we are Han Chinese.”

"It's hard to leave your hometown. It's something you can't let go of."

"Besides, I don't want my descendants to live a life of wandering and uncertainty."

"So I hope that the Holy Lotus Sect can live under the sun." Her eyes were full of emotion.

Guan Ning nodded secretly, meaning to clear his name.

After all, the Holy Lotus Sect is a cult. If someone leaves and his identity is known, he will be attacked immediately. How could a parent with a conscience want his descendants to be in such a predicament?

But it is easier said than done to whitewash the Holy Lotus Sect, but it is difficult for it, because those so-called upright people do not care whether the Holy Lotus Sect is good or not, or what it is.

They only know the two words "Demon Cult" and believe that as long as they kill the Demon Cult, they can gain fame and wealth.

In fact, there are no absolutely evil or good people in this world. Most of them just have different standpoints.
