Chapter 181 The Price of Showing Off

Perhaps, using my own disguise technique, I should try?

While Su Han was contemplating,

Suddenly, he heard a black-robed priest shout!

"The Saintess has arrived..."

With a shout, everyone rose.

Bowing towards the woman in front!

"Welcome, Saintess!"

"Greetings to the Saint Cult's Saintess."

"Greetings, Saintess..."

At this moment, the woman in purple nodded slightly, signaling everyone to be seated.

At the same time, a pleasant voice came!

"Esteemed uncles and elders, leaders of the major sects and elders, please be seated. As before, I am here to reward merits! For the extermination of the corpse monsters, the greater the merit and the greater the effort, the greater the rewards from the Holy Cult..."

"However, if anyone dares to betray us, the Holy Cult will not hesitate to strike with thunder!"

After her speech.

Everyone present trembled. It was evident that although the Saintess was young, her prestige among the elders and disciples was extremely high.

"Rest assured, Saintess. Killing corpse monsters is our duty. Even without rewards from the Holy Cult, we will do our best!"

"Indeed, with the corpse monsters present, there is nothing more to say. The only way is to fight them. If we martial artists do not step forward, are we waiting for ordinary civilians to do so?"

"Haha, Saintess, you don't need to say it. We are not here for rewards. In fact, it's fine if there are no rewards!"

Even though they said so.

Their impassioned words could not conceal their inner yearning for this grand event.

After all, this was the legendary mysterious Holy Cult!

Even a single cultivation technique or secret treasure from them was enough to elevate an ordinary force into a towering tree. Their power was unimaginably strong.

"Heh heh, I am relieved that you all say this."

With a bell-like laugh, Saintess Qin Shiya immediately took out a roster. This roster contained the representatives of various forces!

Scanning through it, many were familiar faces!

Of course, there were also some unfamiliar ones... Suddenly, Qin Shiya spotted Su Han, with his clear and handsome face, among a group of old men, as well as a dashing and elegant man in his thirties.

These two were the highlights of the crowd!

Especially the young master in his thirties, known as the Qilin Hermit, who was dressed in ancient style, holding a folding fan with a dashing demeanor.

And he was the pavilion master of the Qilin Pavilion!

Speaking of which, the Qilin Pavilion was quite an odd sect. They had no achievements against the corpse monsters but were aggressive towards female martial artists.

They were considered an evil sect in the martial world.

However, with the corpse monsters currently present, everyone needed to unite, so this person was allowed to enter!

"I am Shen Yifan, the Pavilion Master of the Qilin Pavilion, also known as the Qilin Hermit. I greet Your Highness, the Saintess. Your Highness is radiant and ethereal, radiating immortal energy. I am truly unable to suppress my excitement and would like to invite Your Highness to personally taste a bowl of my newly developed Yangchun noodles later. May I?"

"Hmm?"

Qin Shiya asked with a hint of confusion, seemingly curious, and said lightly, "Hmm, you want to make food for me? Within the castle?"

"Precisely."

"You are indeed thoughtful. However, I cannot guarantee if there will be time after the meeting!"

"Thank you for your favor, Saintess!"

Su Han's eyes widened, thinking that this was acceptable. It seemed that Saintess Qin Shiya was not as terrifying as rumored, and she was also a foodie!

At this moment, Su Han seized the opportunity and immediately stood up with the others, intending to offer a dish he was good at to be made for the Saintess later.

However, at this moment, a priest beside Qin Shiya suddenly reminded her, "Your Highness, Yangchun noodles are similar to the plain boiled noodles made by our cult's chefs, with just an extra egg. Please forgive him."

"What!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Shiya immediately frowned.

"Hmph! A mere trick, daring to deceive this Saint!"

A murderous glint appeared in her eyes, and she let out a cold snort!

Almost instantly.

Su Han saw the Qilin Pavilion Master beside him turn pale, spitting out a mouthful of blood. Somehow, he had suffered internal injuries!

"Sit down. How dare you try to fool this Saint with mere Yangchun white soup noodles? Today, I will cripple your cultivation and reclaim fifty years of your lifespan as punishment. If there is a next time, I will ensure you suffer forty-nine kinds of torture before dying!"

Gulp.

None of the other sect leaders dared to speak. Some even shook their heads secretly, lamenting that this newcomer truly did not know the immensity of heaven and earth, daring to provoke the Saintess for no reason!

For this capricious Highness, it was like trifling with his own life.

Su Han's body suddenly went cold!

He immediately wanted to sit down.

But at this moment, the Saintess had already spoken!

"This... Grand Elder of the Mysterious Bureau, do you have something else?" Qin Shiya asked coldly.

"I..."

Su Han was filled with emotion. He had only been in office for less than a week, and Qin Shiya could directly call out his name, showing how swift her intelligence network was.

His mind racing, Su Han immediately thought of the Second Elder!

He then asked, "When I was clearing out the house earlier, Your Highness the Saintess took my bureau's Second Elder away for questioning. What is the situation? He is now a wanted criminal in my bureau!"

After saying this with neither humility nor arrogance.

The surrounding big shots were all terrified, worried that Su Han might accidentally anger this fiery Saintess, leading to his demise.

However, to everyone's surprise, the Saintess did not say much this time.

She merely nodded slightly and said indifferently, "Second Elder Song Long colluded with the corpse monsters. I am currently investigating. Hmph, once any clues are found, if there are any implicated individuals in your Mysterious Bureau, I hope the Grand Elder will not shield them!"

Su Han immediately nodded solemnly.

Inwardly, he was already terrified. He had finally passed this crisis!

Standing up this time, he truly felt like he had been on a roller coaster. This was simply like accompanying a tiger. Did he really have to go on the mission now?

Suddenly, as Su Han hesitated!

He saw the mission prompts: [Ding, there are 2 hours left until the end of the first mission, 1.5 hours left until the end of mission 2, 3 hours left until the end of mission 3...]

Pfft!

Su Han instantly spat out a mouthful of blood!

Damn it, the system meant for him to go all out!

Suddenly!

Looking at the Qilin Pavilion Master being carried out dejectedly, Su Han's mind raced!

"I'm sorry, Brother Shen! You are so dashing, and you even left your jacket and folding fan here. If I, Su Han, do not accept this kindness, it would be truly difficult to repay Brother Shen's good intentions!"

With this thought, Su Han immediately clutched his stomach and cried out in pain.

"Reporting to the Saintess, I can't hold it anymore. I need to use the restroom..."
