After the mind-reading cripple junior sister, the entire sect rose to prominence.

Chapter 252

After receiving this recognition, and learning that their sect had been bullied in the past and was about to have a "battle" with the other party, the disciples were all excited and cheered for their sect.

The news of the two sects' upcoming battle order competition spread from within the sects themselves to the outside world.

"Have you heard? The Immortal Sect has issued a challenge to another sect!"

"Really? What's the other sect?"

"It was called something like the Liuren Sect or something, oh dear, I can't remember, it was just a small sect anyway."

"I've heard about it too. It's not the Liuren Sect, it's the Xianliu Sect!"

"What?! It's clearly the Liuxian Sect!"

"Whatever sect it is, I know they have old grudges. The reason why only a few people are left in the Immortal Sect is because other sects have sabotaged them and turned their people away."

"What? That's truly despicable."

"Yes, the Immortal Sect has just gained momentum and they immediately launched a revenge attack. It's really exciting."

"I wonder who will win?"

"It must be the Immortal Sect! I've never even heard of the Liu Sect, how could it be a match for the Immortal Sect?"

"Since we have nothing to do, why don't we go check out the excitement together?"

"Very good."

When outsiders heard about this, almost everyone sided with the Immortal Sect and had no confidence in the Immortal Sect, which infuriated the Immortal Sect members.

Sect Leader Gao had a gloomy face, while Du Wangquan sat below him, watching him cautiously.

"Sect Master, these messages are mostly spread by people bribed by the Immortal Sect to undermine our morale. We must not fall for their tricks."

"Hmph, the little Immortal Sect, I thought their days were numbered, but I never expected them to be so... If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have spared those people in the first place!"

The High Sect Master gritted his teeth, deeply regretting that he hadn't eradicated the threat completely back then, how could he have left so many remnants behind!

Now look what's happened! Everyone outside looks down on the Liuxian Sect and completely sides with the Xianlai Sect. Why is that?
It is hateful that the Immortal Sect has maintained its reputation for so many years, only to have it ruined by the Immortal Sect!
"It's alright. If they have any skill, they'll show it to us. This competition will also let everyone see it clearly." Du Wangquan sneered.

He simply didn't believe that the Immortal Sect had any special abilities, such as heaven-level cultivation techniques or heaven-level sword techniques. The rumors were just too far-fetched!
If they really had that kind of ability, would the Immortal Sect have almost starved to death?
Du Wangquan now even felt that these words were all rumors deliberately spread by the Xianlai Sect in order to suppress the morale of his side and allow them to win without a fight.

Otherwise, how could the timing be so coincidental?

"By the way, let's put aside the Heavenly-level cultivation techniques for now. What exactly is going on with their Heavenly-level alchemist?" Sect Master Gao asked, frowning.

His thoughts were similar to Du Wangquan's; he also didn't believe that the Xianlai Sect could possess such powerful techniques and swordsmanship, because such precious things were simply beyond the reach of the Xianlai Sect.

As for that Heavenly-level Alchemist, he can not only make Breakthrough Pills, but also cure so many people's illnesses, so it doesn't seem fake.

The reason why the Immortal Sect is so famous now is almost entirely due to this alchemist!

"I've inquired, but all I've heard is that the other party is a reclusive master who doesn't like to show his face," Du Wangquan said with a wry smile. "After inquiring many times, I still haven't found out the person's name or even whether he's male or female."

"A reclusive master? Ha, what reclusive master is this! If he were truly reclusive, why would he re-enter the world, and even side with the Immortal Sect?" Sect Master Gao was furious just thinking about it. "They probably aren't very close, otherwise they wouldn't have only appeared now. The Immortal Sect went through so many hardships before, and we still didn't see this person's face."

"what do you mean?"

"I think the Xianlai Sect may have managed to invite this person through some means, but he will only stay briefly, and will leave after helping out, rather than staying at the Xianlai Sect indefinitely."

Du Wangquan said with great certainty.

That alchemist was indeed skilled; after all, the breakthrough pill couldn't be faked.

But precisely because he was so powerful, it was impossible for him to have any deep relationship with the Immortal Sect.

It might be because of profit, or it might be because of personal relationships... that's why the other party had no choice but to help the Immortal Sect.

When the time comes and the favor is repaid, that person will definitely leave without any hesitation!

So don't be fooled by the current prosperity of the Immortal Sect, which is mentioned everywhere you go; it's nothing but a mirage, and it won't last long!
"That makes sense." Sect Master Gao thought about it and felt it was very likely. "It's a good thing that's the case, otherwise the Immortal Sect would be completely out of control."

That senior wasn't from the Immortal Sect at all. The Immortal Sect was just using someone else's power to intimidate others and was even putting on airs!
If the seniors are really from the Immortal Sect, then they would be even more arrogant!
"Send some more people to make contact with that Du Yue." Sect Master Gao thought of something, his eyes gleaming. "Give her some benefits and get her to tell us where that senior is staying. Try to get in touch with him."

"Does Du Yue know where the senior is?"

"She may not know the details, but she knows more than others. Didn't the Immortal Sect spread rumors that she was a senior's disciple? She should have had some contact with her."

Even as he spoke, Gao Zongzhu almost laughed, finding the lie utterly absurd.

Du Yue had long been a disciple of the Immortal Sect, but her aptitude was mediocre. She didn't know how to refine pills before; she had only learned it in the last few years.

How could someone like that catch the eye of a senior? It's truly laughable!
This also shows that the Immortal Sect is full of lies, and their words are completely unreliable!
"Okay, I'll send someone over."

Soon, it was the day before the battle order competition.

As the sect leader, Xu Yihan did not intend to personally lead his people to Liuxian Sect, as that would be giving them too much face.

So Liu Feng was still to lead the team, selecting some disciples to take with him to prepare for tomorrow's battle.

But deciding who to take with me is a bit of a dilemma.

"I wonder what they want to compete in. Why don't we bring three to five people with each skill? That should be enough," Hu Jiu suggested.

"Didn't they say that alchemy wouldn't be a competition? Then it's just about talismans, weapons, and swords. Besides, they said that only those below the Golden Core stage can participate, which means we only need to bring disciples who have completed Qi Refining or Foundation Establishment stages."

“That’s perfect, we’re all at the Foundation Establishment stage,” Hu Jiu said.

No, no, the other side is being sneaky; just the few of you definitely won't be enough.

Mo Jiuwei suddenly spoke up, looking up from a plate of food with a disapproving expression, "Bring more people!"

A thought struck everyone, and they all turned to look at her.

"How could I forget? Junior Sister is our lucky star. In my opinion, why don't we let her choose the people for us?" Du Yue said with a grin.
