The next morning, Ellie came over, and there was a special guest who came with her.

This person has curly black hair, tall figure, and looks very different from those of the Central Plains.

Zhang Yuelu took Qi Xuansu, Lingquanzi, and Shangguan Dun to meet the two of them.

After a little greeting, Ellie introduced the identity of this person. His name is Arthur, and he is the first bishop from the Holy Court refereeship department.

Arthur took out a document similar to the Taoist sect and handed it to Zhang Yuelu... .??.

After Zhang Yuelu confirmed that it was correct, she returned it to Arthur.

Qi Xuansu knew the lower level of the world, but was not familiar with these higher-level things, so he couldn't help but ask: "What is the referee department?"

Zhang Yuelu explained: "The Holy Court is the Taoist sect of the Western countries, and the referee department is approximately equivalent to Beichen Hall and Tiangang Hall."

"The first bishop is probably equivalent to the fifth-rank Taoist priest on our side. There are also archbishops and master bishops, corresponding to our fourth-rank Taoist priests and third-rank Youyi Taoist priests. Further up, there is the "cardi" corresponding to the "Golden Que". Ordinary real people correspond to the cardinal deacon, the Shenzhi real people correspond to the cardinal priest, Pingzhang Dazhen person corresponds to the cardinal bishop, the deputy head priest, and the great head priest."

Qi Xuansu immediately understood that this was a colleague, and he must have found Aili before them, otherwise he would not have appeared here by such a coincidence. From this point of view, the rumors that the Ai family had close contacts with Western countries were not groundless.

In fact, the Taoist sect and the Holy Court had a certain degree of exchange, which can be traced back to the Xuansheng era.

Xuan Sheng had three teachers, one of whom had traveled to Western countries and had a wide range of friendships, which had a great influence on the later Xuan Sheng. Xuan Sheng and the great masters of all generations of later generations had sent special envoys to communicate with the Holy Court. Because the two sides were far apart and were both powerful, they were mostly in the water of wells and did not interfere with the rivers. Without substantial conflicts of interest, they could "get from far away". As for Buddhism and shamanism, they were "close attacks".

Therefore, Zhang Yuelu did not have much hostility towards this fellow sacred court, but instead held an attitude of being able to cooperate.

Arthur's Daxuan official words were stumble and translated by Ellie.

Ellie said: "Arthur followed the orders of the Archbishop to pursue the footsteps of a group of sinners and came to the Western Regions. But he was alone and was not a match for this group of sinners, so he wanted to ask for help from the Taoist sect."

This really coincides. Zhang Yuelu immediately said, "There is an old saying in the east, "Know your enemy and your own, and you will never be defeated in a hundred battles." So before that, I want to know the sinful people you mentioned.

”

Arthur was also very frank and introduced the origin of this group of demons immediately.

Ellie slowly translated: "The Taoist sect called him a demon, the Holy Court called him a sinner, and they called him a blood clan, but ordinary people prefer to call them vampires or blood-sucking demons, who make a living by sucking human blood. They have a real body, no heartbeat, no body temperature, no breathing, and immortality, which is quite similar to the zombies in the East."

"The difference between them and zombies is that their minds are no different from humans, they can think, talk, and even because of their long lifespan, they are knowledgeable, better than ordinary people, and they are good at using spells."

"This group of sinners exists in the form of a family, with a total of thirteen families. It is said that their ancestors were cursed for eternity and had to suck the blood of living people for their lives and never die. Later, he learned from an ancient witch to control the power of blood for his own use, creating the second generation of sinners. The second generation of sinners produced thirteen third generations. It was they who established thirteen major clans, and later rebelled and eliminated the second generation of sinners."

"The thirteen clans are divided into three factions, namely the Secret Alliance, the Magic Banquet Alliance, the Neutral Clan, also known as the Secret Party, the Demon Party, and the Neutral Party."

"The sinners involved this time came from the Reverno family of the neutral party."

"The vast majority of sinners are not born as sinners, but are transformed by the acquired. Sinners make a living by sucking human blood. If they inject their own blood into others, they will degenerate into sinners. This is the way the sinners develop new members, which they call "first embrace."

"Before the members of the Refno family were travelers and thieves, they were scattered throughout the Western continent like straw in the wind. Every country can find the footprints of the Refno family, but their place is erratic and at ease. Many tribes and wandering handymen, unpopular people travel together."

"It is not easy to find many Refnos at the same time in one place. They like to be alone and would rather use trace marks to contact their companions. The wandering Refnos are known for their ability to manipulate amazing illusions."

When Zhang Yuelu heard this, she interrupted: "As far as we know, there is not only one demon this time."

Shangguan Dun translated Zhang Yuelu's words to Arthur. After Arthur replied, Ellie said: "Because they were not traveling, but running away."

"In the Western Continent, people are divided into nine camps, namely: orderly and kind, neutral and kind, chaotic and kind, orderly and neutral, absolutely neutral, chaotic and neutral, orderly and evil, neutral and evil, chaotic and evil. I believe that Master Mage can already understand the meaning of these nine camps literally. Although the Reverno clan adheres to neutrality, it is chaotic and neutral."

"They attach great importance to their own freedom and rights, but are not committed to protecting the freedom of others. They despise authority, resent and challenge traditions, and many of their behaviors are difficult to predict. They tend to follow their hearts, usually ignore the rules of the law and secular traditions, and only think about their own will. Although they hold a wild ideal, freedom is always in the first sequence in terms of belief concepts, good and evil, right and wrong, and moral concepts are secondary to their own freedom."

"For this reason, the Refno family often causes chaos within the Thirteen Clans, causing dissatisfaction and accountability among other families. However, the Refno family often responds with a more contemptuous attitude, making the relationship between the two parties as strong as fire."

Zhang Yuelu had already understood: "Did they take off this time?"

There is no need for Zhang Yuelu to give instructions, Shangguan Dun has translated Zhang Yuelu's words.

Arthur nodded and responded in a low tone. Ellie sent an interpretation in a simultaneous manner: "Just last year, the Bruch, Gangro, Maikawi, Nofile, Toredo, Reimer, Vandao, Lesenba, and Tsmithi joined forces to launch an attack on the Reverno family. The war lasted only three months. The patriarch and most of the elders of the Reverno family were all killed in battle, and the rest of the members fled in scattered. The Holy Court took this opportunity to completely destroy the family and began to search for its members everywhere. Most of the remaining members of the Furno family took a boat to sea, but the group of people crossed half of the Western Continent and fled to the Western Regions between the Eastern Continent and the Western Continent."

Zhang Yuelu thought about something.

Qi Xuansu spoke, "According to your words, these demons are just sucking blood, but why do they want to take away the souls?"

After hearing Shangguan Dun's translation, Arthur was slightly stunned, and then translated by Ellie: "The sinners are not interested in souls. The ones who really like souls are demons. They often take away other people's souls in the form of transactions. If this matter is true, it means that these members of the escaped Refno family are trading with demons and need to be eradicated as soon as possible."

Seeing that Zhang Yuelu had no intention of stopping her from asking questions, Qi Xuansu asked again: "Since that's the case,

Why did the Holy Court send only one first bishop?”

Arthur's expression was a bit strange, but he still said through Ellie: "Because according to the treaty between the Taoist Sect and the Holy Court, archbishop or above shall not enter the jurisdiction of the Taoist Sect at will without permission or invitation. Similarly, Taoist priests of the fourth rank or above of the Taoist Sect cannot go to the jurisdiction of the Holy Court without permission without permission. In order to cause unnecessary misunderstandings, the jury only sent four first bishops to come this time, and my other three companions died one after another. Two died at the hands of members of the Refno family, and one died unfortunately because he accidentally intervened in the conflict between local forces."

Qi Xuansu really didn't know these things, so he couldn't help but look at Zhang Yuelu.

Zhang Yuelu was in the ancestral court and knew more about this kind of thing than Qi Xuansu. He nodded and said, "There is indeed such a treaty. Western countries, including the Rakshasa Kingdom, are all divided into the holy court. Our Taoist Sect is based on the territory of the Daxuan, including Fenglin Prefecture, the Western Regions, the Jinguan and some Posa Prefectures. Although Wuge Mountain Li is not under the jurisdiction of the Western Regions Taoist Sect, when the treaty was signed, it was divided into the name of the Taoist Sect."

"This matter involves the Holy Court, and I need to ask the real person in the hall."

After saying that, Zhang Yuelu claimed the crime and took out a mother-child talisman from the Sumeru object that went straight to the real person in the palm of the hall and left for the time being.

A moment later, Zhang Yuelu returned and said, "The real person in the palm of the hall agreed to join forces with this friend of the Holy Court to eliminate this group of wandering demons. However, before this, we must determine the specific location of the group of demons hiding."

Ellie immediately said: "I have mobilized half of the soldiers in the city to investigate this matter. As long as they are still within the jurisdiction of Wugo Shanli, I can definitely find their location."

Zhang Yuelu looked at Arthur again and asked, "Since you have been sent to the East, you should be more familiar with the rules of our East. I wonder what level of cultivation you are at?"

Arthur could understand the simpler Daxuan Mandarin and answered in very awkward and strangely accented Mandarin: "If, according to the Taoist standards, I am in the stage of returning to the truth."

Zhang Yuelu said again: "Generally speaking, this level of cultivation should be the archbishop. Why is the first bishop?"

Arthur shook his head helplessly: "Because, you made a mistake."

Qi Xuansu had a conspiracy in his mind. This person was probably another person like Xu Kou, but Xu Kou did not come this time, otherwise the two would be able to make friends.
