Early the next morning.

Li Xuan accepted the invitation and came to Hu Yulou early.

In Ayimu's room, Xie Qingmo and Ayimu were also ready for everything.

Coming to Hu Yulou with Li Xuan was Sharon who woke up this morning.

Sharon's body is no longer as weak as before, at least walking on the ground is not a problem.

Outside Hu Yulou, there were also eunuchs from the Ministry of Internal Affairs in disguise monitoring.

After all, this is a contact between two forces, and nothing can be done carelessly.

Li Xuan had personal contact with Hu Yulou before and was his personal friend, but now there has been a subtle change.

Li Xuan now represents a considerable part of Emperor Yongyuan.

The Holy Fire Sect has also vaguely guessed this through the identity of Princess Ankang.

Therefore, although this time is not a formal contact between the two forces, both sides are extremely cautious.

Li Xuan took Sharon into Ayimu's room, and the two immediately stood up and saluted.

"Lord A Xuan."

"Miss Sharon (Uncle)."

Li Xuan nodded lightly to Ayimu and Xie Qingmo.

Sharon, on the other hand, looked at the two of them curiously.

Of course, Ayimu and Xie Qingmo also cast their eyes on Sharon.

They had all seen Sharon before, but never had they seen such a calm expression on her face.

"I recognize you two."

"You are my junior sister's alien brother." Sharon said to Xie Qingmo.

"Alien brother?" Li Xuan felt strange about this title.

He looked at Xie Qingmo and muttered in his heart: "I just said that Xie Qingmo doesn't have many characteristics of people from the Western Regions, but he is an elder of the Holy Fire Sect and the biological brother of the Holy Girl..."

"Is it a case of having the same father and mother?"

Except for his eyes, Xie Qingmo looks like an out-and-out Daxing native, unlike Ayimu and Sharon who have obvious appearance features from the Western Regions.

Xie Qingmo didn't pay much attention to Sharon's name, and just smiled at Sharon.

But in fact, there was already a storm in his heart.

When had Sharon ever been so sober and able to clearly explain his identity as the alien brother of the Saint?

Xie Qingmo had only heard Li Xuan say that Sharon was about to die, but he didn't remember saying that Sharon's mind had become so clear.

Xie Qingmo was shocked and could remain calm, but Ayimu honestly widened his beautiful eyes and opened his mouth slightly, unable to close it.

Sharon turned to Ayimu and said, "Are you Junior Sister's disciple?"

Ayimu nodded silently, but said one more sentence: "Hello, uncle."

Seeing Ayimu's silly and obedient appearance, Sharon smiled softly, said nothing, and sat down aside.

Li Xuan immediately sent a message: "Sharon also has something to tell you, the saint."

"Are they ready?"

Hearing Li Xuan's deep and deep voice, Sharon couldn't help but tilt her head slightly, but then she just lowered her head and smiled without saying anything else.

"Master Axuan, our side is ready. I will contact the main altar right away."

Xie Qingmo said, picking up a wooden box half a person's height from the ground.

There was a mechanism on the wooden box. Xie Qingmo moved it a few times, making a series of clicking sounds. Then the wooden box opened on its own, revealing a stone lamp inside.

A small flame burned quietly on the treasure lantern, emitting an orange-red light, making people feel warm.

Seeing the flames on the lantern, Sharon, who had been sitting down, stood up again.

Ayimu and Xie Qingmo looked at each other, not hiding the surprise in each other's eyes.

Then, without stopping, Xie Qingmo first took out a small packet of something like medicinal powder and burned it into the flames. The flames suddenly became much stronger, from the size of a fingernail to the size of a basketball.

But even after the flames grew bigger, it still gave people a sense of calm.

The fire on the treasure lantern burned quietly, and even the flame did not fluctuate much. Only the color became brighter and closer to gold.

Seeing that the time was right, Xie Qingmo burned another special talisman paper.

As the talisman was burned to ashes, the flame on the lamp began to become unstable and began to change shape with a specific rhythm.

The flame suddenly grew larger and smaller for a while, and then slowly began to stabilize again. However, when the flame stabilized again, it turned into a lifelike human face.

It was a beautiful and mature face with long fiery red hair.

The flame on the treasure lantern turned into a human face and burned steadily.

Although this looks a bit weird, it does seem to be some kind of special communication method.

"The Holy Fire Cult's communication method is still video calling!?"

Although Li Xuan tightened his expression, he was actually shocked.

The Holy Fire Cult does have a way of using the Holy Fire.

Seeing that the Holy Fire's communication was established, Xie Qingmo immediately saluted and said:

"Lord Saint, Xie Qingmo, the elder of the Daxing branch, initiated a communication."

"Master A-Xuan and Miss Sharon are on the side."

"The communication status is good and direct communication is possible."

After Xie Qingmo finished speaking, her beautiful face made of flames on the treasure lamp and her red lips slightly opened, and she let out a magnetic and steady voice.

"very good."

Then the face on the lantern turned slightly and looked at Li Xuan.

"The Holy Fire Sect's Saint Nelubair has met Lord A-Xuan."

"May the holy fire bring you warmth."

Li Xuan nodded towards that face, but did not speak.

It seems that Nilubaier is also very polite to Li Xuan, at least she did not show any hostility.

This is enough, at least it is a good start.

Li Xuan believes that Aimu and Xie Qingmo have told Nilubaier about his affairs.

As for whether Nilubaier will think that Li Xuan is the savior of the prophecy like them, that is her own business.

This is not a factor that Li Xuan can control.

Therefore, Li Xuan is not in a hurry to show his ability.

These details are very important for the first meeting between the two sides.

Because this will determine who will dominate the relationship between the two sides in the future.

"Senior sister, are you awake?"

Nilubaier turned to Sharon and asked, with a complex tone.

I am afraid that Nilubaier has heard that Sharon will die soon.

As for the relationship between them, Li Xuan is not sure.

"Junior sister, I have caused a lot of trouble to the church for so many years, and now it is finally over."

Sharon's words made the flames on the treasure lamp fluctuate a few times, and the face composed of flames was distorted a little.

But soon the fluctuations recovered.

"Senior sister..."

Nilubaier was about to say something, but was interrupted by Sharon.

"Junior sister, I saw the guidance of the Holy Fire at the last moment of my life. I plan to spend the rest of my life peacefully beside Master Xuan."

"I will not return to the Holy Fire Church. You can tell those people not to worry."

Sharon's tone was calm, but her eyes were particularly firm.

This matter was not a temporary decision made by Sharon, but a determination made after he woke up.

She told Li Xuan yesterday that she did not want to return to the Holy Fire Church to spend the last few days of her life, and she might not be able to survive the long journey, so she asked to die peacefully in the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

After Sharon woke up from her deep sleep this morning, this decision became more firm.

She was sure that the guidance given by the Holy Fire to her was not to become a saint, but to have other arrangements.

Now, Sharon has seen this fact clearly.

Nilubaier seemed a little uncomfortable with Sharon who was so considerate.

After all, Sharon had been crazy for decades, and she became so rational when she woke up, which made it difficult for people who knew her to adapt.

Moreover, even Sharon before she went crazy was not so easy to talk to.

As a junior sister who grew up together, Nilubaier also knew this very well.

In this regard, she could only think that the senior sister had a great enlightenment at the end of her life and obtained the mercy bestowed by the holy fire, allowing her to accept her own end calmly.

Thinking of this, Nilubaier couldn't help but sigh for Sharon's end.

Therefore, Nilubaier also directly agreed to the senior sister's last request.

"Senior sister, I accept your request as a saint."

"As for the other people in the church, I will tell them that you have completed the sacrifice of the holy fire."

Sharon smiled slightly and solemnly performed a holy fire ritual to Nilubaier:

"Thank you, junior sister."

"May the holy fire shine on us forever!"

Sharon stared at the flame on the treasure lamp and said very seriously.

Nilubaier was obviously stunned for a moment, but soon said:

"May the holy fire shine on us forever!"

"May the holy fire shine on us forever!"

Ayimu and Xie Qingmo also sang along and bowed.

Li Xuan looked at them blankly. For some reason, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became much more solemn.

Among the four members of the Holy Fire Church present, except for Sharon who was smiling, the expressions of the other three were a little solemn.

Just when Li Xuan was curious about the reason, the atmosphere became relaxed again with Nilubaier's opening.

"Master Xuan, I heard from my unworthy disciple that you helped her a lot. Here, I, as a master, thank you on her behalf."

Nilubaier's tone suddenly changed and became relaxed. She talked to Li Xuan as if chatting casually.

Li Xuan immediately replied in a voice transmission: "It's just a matter of convenience, not worth mentioning."

Nilubaier heard Li Xuan speak for the first time. While she was slightly surprised, the smile on her face became stronger.

Next, Nilubaier did not mention any in-depth topics, but just kept getting closer to Li Xuan around Aimu and Xie Qingmo.

As the Holy Lady in charge of the Holy Fire Religion, Nilubaier really had no airs in front of Li Xuan, and she seemed very relaxed when she spoke.

Even though Li Xuan knew that this was intentional, he was very happy.

During the conversation, Li Xuan also asked Nilubaier some sensitive questions, such as how she viewed the reformists in the religion, whether the Holy Fire Religion had expanded its missionary scope, etc.

But it was obvious that Nilubaier was a master of Tai Chi, and these questions were vague, and Li Xuan did not give a definite answer.

Li Xuan had heard from Xie Qingmo before that such a communication was expensive, and thought that Nilubaier had a definite purpose to talk to him, but he did not expect that it was just a chat.

Seeing that Nilubaier had no intention of deepening the topic for the time being, Li Xuan also tactfully stopped.

He was not in a hurry about the Holy Fire Religion now.

Because Li Xuan had more important things to pay attention to.

While chatting, Nilubaier found that Li Xuan could actually keep his composure, which made her feel shocked.

It was unheard of that the beast tribe had such intelligence as Li Xuan, so terrifying.

After all, Nilubaier had only heard about Li Xuan's deeds, and Aimu and Xie Qingmo's words were too mysterious, which made her more suspicious.

However, this communication did not reduce Nilubaier's doubts, but made her more curious about Li Xuan.

"Master Xuan, the New Year is approaching, and the hundreds of countries in the Western Regions have sent many teams to offer tribute to Daxing. I think many of them should have arrived in the past few days."

"Many of them are believers of my Holy Fire Church. I hope Master Xuan can take care of these children in a foreign country."

At the end of the conversation, Nilubaier suddenly asked Li Xuan.

This is not a big deal, Li Xuan nodded directly.

"I will take care of them within my ability, the saint can rest assured."

Nilubaier smiled slightly: "Then I'll trouble Master Xuan."

"Although it's a pity, the time for the Holy Fire communication is limited."

"I hope that Master Xuan and I will have the opportunity to have in-depth face-to-face exchanges in the future."

"Then Nilu will take her leave today."

Nilubaier said, nodded to Li Xuan, and Li Xuan also returned a salute.

"Thank you, Qingmo, Aimu."

"You will be credited for what you did today. I hope you will continue to work hard in the future."

Aimu and Xie Qingmo immediately stepped forward and said, "Yes, Saint."

Then, the flame on the treasure lamp began to dim, and the size was also rapidly reduced.

"Farewell, Saint."

As Aimu and Xie Qingmo finished speaking, the flame on the treasure lamp returned to the size of a fingernail, and the color was much dimmer than at the beginning.

Seeing the end of the message, Aimu and Xie Qingmo both breathed a sigh of relief silently.

In front of Nilubaier, they did feel some pressure.

After all, one is her sister and the other is her master. When she beat them up, Nilubaier really didn't hold back at all.

Aimu and Xie Qingmo just heard that Nilubaier was going to give them credit, and they couldn't help but grin at this time.

"Hehe~"

The communication with Nilubaier tonight was a little shallower than Li Xuan expected, but he was not too disappointed.

After all, Nilubaier is a saint of a sect, and controls the Holy Fire Sect, a martial arts holy land. She is not like Ayimu, who is fascinated by Li Xuan.

Anyway, Sharon's request was agreed, and this alone is a big gain.

"Hey, don't be silly."

Li Xuan woke up Ayimu and Xie Qingmo speechlessly.

"Do you know what the tribute team of the Hundred Kingdoms in the Western Region is about?" Li Xuan asked them.

"Master Xuan, the Hundred Kingdoms in the Western Region pay tribute to Daxing every year before the New Year. The date should be almost up." Ayimu thought for a while and answered.

Xie Qingmo on the side also nodded and said: "Many officials of the Hundred Kingdoms in the Western Region are believers of the Holy Fire Sect, and the guards in the annual tribute team are mostly provided by the Holy Fire Sect."

"Every year is very peaceful. My sister should have just mentioned it casually just now. Master Xuan, don't worry too much."

Xie Qingmo said so, and Li Xuan also had an idea in his mind.

"Okay, remember to contact me if you have anything."

"I left a contact person for you outside. The stall selling sugar water at the door is from the Ministry of Internal Affairs. If you notify him, he will pass the news to the palace."

Li Xuan gestured outside the window, and Ayimu and Xie Qingmo curiously leaned over to look.

He went directly to the window and recognized them.

I saw a brand new stall set up opposite Hu Yulou, which only sold sugar water and the food provided was extremely simple.

And at this time, Huajie Street was selling breakfast to hard-working people who worked all night, and this sugar water stall looked a bit out of place.

But this stall was only used for communication, not for surveillance, so it showed the sincerity of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in such a fair and open manner.

Xie Qingmo was well versed in this and quickly understood the meaning.

Aimu said with some dissatisfaction:

"Ah, can't you sell some other desserts?"

"If you only sell sugar water, I can go to the kitchen to make a bowl."

Li Xuan immediately stood up and punched Aimu on the head, criticizing:

"You're ordering dishes!"
