Chapter 199

"Those should be the followers of the Desolate God Sect. They are here on a pilgrimage. Let's stay away from them. They are all lunatics."

Ji Lanchu's beautiful eyes were filled with fear. The two of them were already besieged. She did not expect to meet this famous crazy sect.

Desolate God Valley was named after the ancient Desolate God.

It was said that a long time ago, the Desolate God had fallen here. Since then, there had been all sorts of extraordinary phenomena.

The majority of the people in the Land of the Nine Prefectures did not agree with the Desolate God. The majority of the cultivators believed that it was an evil god.

However, there was a small group of people who stubbornly worshipped the Desolate God as their legitimate god. Only the Desolate God could save them from their suffering.

When there were many of these people, the Desolate God Sect was born. It was a crazy and extreme sect. It was a troublesome organization that even the Imperial Court had a headache over.

After Ji Lanchu briefly introduced the various incredible doctrines and alms of the Desolate God Cult to Gu Chen, the two of them decided to stay away from them.

It was already difficult to pass through Desolate God Valley. If they were to encounter this group of people, they would not be able to return.

The two of them maintained a distance from the followers of the Desolate God Sect and sneaked towards Desolate God Valley.

"Reincarnation never ends, suffering never ends! Have mercy on the people of the world. Gods descend from the heavens! Infinite Desolate God, send me home! "

The group of followers of the Desolate God Sect continued to shout their slogans. They shook their bells and weapons as they walked towards Desolate God Valley unhurriedly.

Gu Chen and Ji Lanchu circled ahead of them. After passing through a hundred miles of no-man's land, they quickly saw the entrance of Desolate God Valley.

When they saw it, their expressions changed.

A group of soldiers from the Heavenly Mirror Prefecture had actually sealed off the entrance and were waiting for them!

"Damn it. I underestimated the Heavenly Mirror Prefecture's meticulousness. They even sent people to guard the entrance of Desolate God Valley!"

Ji Lanchu's face turned cold. After being pressured for the past few days, she was almost at her limit.

Gu Chen looked at the army in the distance. His eyes were filled with purple light. He immediately saw the number of people and their strength.

"There aren't many guards here. It looks like the Heavenly Mirror Mansion doesn't place much importance on this place, and they don't think that you will pass through here. If the two of us make a move, we can finish them off quickly, but that way, our whereabouts will be completely exposed. "

Gu Chen said in a low voice.

"The road inside the Desolate God Valley is not easy to walk. If that's the case, it's very easy for them to catch up. They can even go around to the other side of the valley and wait for the rabbit."

Ji Lanchu's face darkened.

"If that's the case, there's only one way left."

Gu Chen turned around and looked at the group of crazy followers of the Desolate God Cult.

…

"The world of mortals is like a prison, and all living things are suffering! Reincarnation never ends, suffering never ends! "

A group of Desolate God Sect disciples dressed in hemp clothes arrived at the entrance of Desolate God Valley barefoot.

Instantly, the group of Heavenly Mirror Mansion soldiers looked nervous, as though they were facing a formidable enemy.

"Stop right there! This place is strictly prohibited! "

"Take pity on the people of the world, a god will descend from the heavens! Boundless Aragami, send me home! "

The group of believers ignored him and continued to chant their slogans as they walked forward.

"Stop, all of you, stop right there!"

A few soldiers became anxious and raised their spears.

Dong dong dong dong.

The group of believers immediately started a strange dance, stomping their feet on the ground. The sound was orderly and rhythmic, as though it could strike one's heart.

"Make way! Otherwise, I will send you home! "

The leader of the Desolate God Cult disciples shouted angrily. The other believers also had ferocious expressions and stomped their feet on the ground, as though they would kill their entire family if they disagreed.

Many of the soldiers' faces turned pale instantly.

"Forget it! Let them go in. Don't you know how crazy these believers are? "

"There was once a Sect Leader of a powerful sect in Liang Province who doubted the Desolate God Cult. In less than five days, the entire sect was killed by the Desolate God Cult disciples!"

Many of the soldiers became timid and tried to dissuade the few soldiers who insisted on guarding the valley entrance.

"But, there's an order from above …"

The few of them instantly revealed a troubled expression.

"Why do you care so much? Do you think that Princess Lanchu and her lover might have entered Desolate God Valley to seek their own deaths? Is it possible that they are among these people? "

Another soldier said angrily.

The few of them looked at the fanatical faces of the believers, who looked like they had gone mad. They also felt that it was impossible for the princess to be hiding among them.

"Alright then."

The soldiers hurriedly retreated and opened up a path.

The group of believers chanted a slogan and bowed every three steps as they entered Desolate God Valley.

Among this group of people, there were two unfamiliar faces, a man and a woman. Their actions were obviously not familiar, but the group of soldiers could not see it.

Once they entered Desolate God Valley, the two people in the group heaved a sigh of relief.

"I feel that I have really gone mad."

Ji Lanchu was speechless. Only God knew why she agreed to Gu Chen's stupid idea. They had disguised themselves as believers and even did so many embarrassing actions …

"Oh, what they said earlier was quite interesting. They even said that I was a murderer. When did I become your lover? "

Gu Chen's point was different. He smiled and teased her.

Ji Lanchu immediately rolled her eyes at him. That gaze was somewhat captivating.

"This is great. I managed to escape from the marriage, but I ended up eloping with a guy like you who I have never seen before. Who knows, maybe even his name is fake."

She complained. They had been hiding for the past few days and had heard some rumors about them.

Ever since Gu Chen saved her that day, the rumors seemed to have gotten out of hand.

Gu Chen rubbed his nose and did not say anything. Ji Lanchu was right. His appearance was fake, and his name was also fake.

"Alright, let's study this valley and see how we can get out."

The two of them landed behind the believers and sized up the infamous Desolate God Valley.

The first impression they had was that it was strange.

The Desolate God Valley was shrouded in a faint gray fog. It was unknown what it was made of, but smelling it did not make one feel uncomfortable.

Outside the valley was a hundred miles of wasteland. All the trees were bare, but after entering the valley, it was filled with the fragrance of green grass and blooming flowers.

The vegetation here was too exuberant. The flowers were bright and colorful, and they were blooming too brightly.

The strong contrast between the inside and the outside, and the natural beauty that was so bright that it was exaggerated, caused people to shiver.

"You two."

The leader of the Desolate God Sect believers walked towards Gu Chen and Ji Lanchu. He was a middle-aged man with an abnormally fair complexion.

Gu Chen and Ji Lanchu looked at each other. At the same time, they imitated the other believers and made a gesture in front of their chest. "Infinite Desolate God."

Seeing this, the middle-aged man revealed a satisfied smile.

"The two of you have just joined my Desolate God Sect. Although you are sincere, you still have to complete the ceremony."

He said, his voice was a little sharp.

"What ceremony is it?"

The two of them asked.

In order to sneak into the Desolate God Sect's group, they had pretended to be believers and asked to join. That was why everything went so smoothly.

"We are the third branch of the Desolate God Sect. We follow the ancient method of serving the master wholeheartedly. So, once we join the sect, the women have to shave their hair, and the men have to shave their roots."

The middle-aged man said solemnly.
