Time Travel: Did My Sister-in-Law Get Slapped in the Face Today?

"Why must the Holy Son do this?"

A soft sigh escaped his lips. In his last moments of lucidity, Xin Yunhe finally saw the Holy Maiden Miao Wuyu, the Cihang Saintess, emerge from the thatched hut.

……

"We've received the message, it'll be tomorrow!"

Within the Demonic Cult.

Xia Zilong was overjoyed when he saw the secret letter sent back. He exclaimed, "Grandpa, tomorrow is the day you become the Holy Lord!"

But Demon Eleven sighed and said, "Unfortunately, the Holy Church... will also perish in my hands!"

According to their plan, at tomorrow's conference, they will first get Li Lan to defect and cast the crucial vote, making Demon Eleven the Demon Lord. Then, the Demon Lord will have the power to control the entire secret realm and open it—

At that time, the forces of the Ziwei Holy Land will surge in like a tidal wave, and the entire Demonic Sect will vanish into thin air.

"The Holy Church has always acted against the will of Heaven. Back then, the leader and the Supreme Elder were on a crooked path!"

Xia Zilong said, "Grandpa, from now on, we're back on track. You will become an elder of the Ziwei Holy Land. This is your final destiny!"

Mo Shiyi hesitated for a moment, then said, "But I always feel that everything has gone too smoothly..."

Having been a veteran figure for many years, he sensed something unusual: "Is that Nan Mo really a useless coward as you say? Why would the Great Demon Supreme choose such a person?"

“Grandpa, you’re overthinking it. This is a letter written in the handwriting of the Holy Son Yunhe. How could his aura and seal be fake?”

Xia Zilong smiled and said, "You don't need to worry. Now that Saint Yunhe has found Saintess Cihang, it's clear that what Nanmo said was true. Besides, didn't the Saint also say in his letter that he personally brought a statue of a deity this time? If we have any problems, we only need to forcefully break through a corner of the secret realm, and he will descend!"

He knew all too well how difficult it was to use a divine statue, but this time, Xin Yunhe was supporting them so much, which clearly showed that he was extremely satisfied with the matter of the Holy Maiden Cihang!

Steady!

Mo Shiyi nodded in agreement. That's true. As long as the Ziwei Holy Land is willing to use its resources, no one within the Holy Sect can overturn the heavens.

……

The next day.

The Demonic Cult convened an elders' meeting.

Inside the main hall, fourteen elders sat facing each other.

"The discussion among the leaders has been going on for many days. Fifteenth Prince, it's time to make a decision today."

Mo Shiyi spoke calmly.

Mo Shiwu said, "That's right. After thinking it over, what the eleventh brother said is indeed true. The Holy Sect cannot be without a leader for a day. Now that the Ziwei Star Region is in turmoil, it is indeed necessary to choose a Holy Lord in order to unite the people's hearts."

Upon hearing this, the others were somewhat surprised. Before this, Mo Shiwu had always opposed the current appointment of a new master and instead encouraged the rescue of Xin Yizi.

"However, besides us, there is another fellow Daoist who should also participate in the vote—"

After saying that, he waved his hand and said, "Please—"

Outside the main hall, Li Lan immediately walked up.

"This is Nanmo, the successor of the Great Demon Supreme Master!"

These words startled everyone present.

"The Great Demon Supreme is still alive?"

Where is he now?

Many of the elderly were excited at this moment. Even around the Eleventh Elder, many people asked questions. Clearly, although they were currently siding with the Eleventh Elder, they still had deep feelings for the Supreme Elder and the Sect Leader.

"I met the Great Demon Supreme a few days ago and came to the Holy Church according to his decree!"

Li Lan took out the token given to her by Bodhidharma.

"It is indeed the token of the Great Demon Supreme; it cannot be faked!"

"It seems there's no mistake."

"Young friend, how is the Great Demon Supreme now? What does he say about the affairs of the sect?"

Everyone spoke up.

"Everyone!"

But Demon Fifteen said, "We can discuss the matter of the Great Demon Supreme later. Since the Eleventh Elder insists on choosing a Holy Lord, we will vote first. The successor of the Great Demon Supreme should naturally be counted as a vote!"

Everyone nodded in agreement.

“We have discussed this many times before, and it has always been seven against seven, with no clear winner. How about this, since our young friend has come here on the orders of the Great Demon Supreme, then whoever he chooses will be the Holy Lord. We will have no objection. What do you all think?”
