Building a sect from scratch.

Chapter 382 Killing a Taiyin Sect Disciple?

Just as Fang Xianyu was beginning to doubt his own existence, feeling increasingly that his system was some kind of "Nuwa Box," the Dragon King of Zhenhai sighed heavily.

"Alas, if only we could find the Nuwa Box! Over the years, the cracks in the Five-Colored Array have grown wider and wider. I'm truly afraid that one day the Gate of Return to Nothingness will be opened, and that would be terrible! If we had the Nuwa Box, perhaps we could still salvage the situation!"

Upon hearing this, Fang Xianyu's expression immediately turned serious: "A crack in the Five-Colored Array? What is that?"

"The Five-Colored Array contains many caves, which can trap the evil spirits that wander in, but also make it difficult for them to leave."

The Dragon King of Zhenhai explained, "Moreover, those demons are different from the Nine Nether Demons. Although they originated from the same source, most of the demons in the Five-Colored Array are true demons, or even demon lords. My two sons lost their lives while eliminating several demon lords."

“Over the years, the number of demons in the Five-Colored Array has increased. Our Dragon Clan and Quanxian Clan have lost members inside year after year. Qingqiu Kingdom, Wuyan Kingdom, and even Chiyuan Cave in your Central Continent have sent people to help us all year round. Even King Duguang has been sending several of his officials to assist us. Unfortunately, compared to the ever-increasing number of demons, it is just a drop in the ocean. Alas!”

As the Dragon King of Zhenhai spoke, he sighed again.

Fang Xianyu's heart stirred—she had previously discussed with the Quanxian Clan about having players help in the Five-Colored Array, but firstly, the players' levels were too low and their skills too poor at that time, and secondly, she hadn't had the time to design a "secret realm" or "dungeon" specifically, so she had kept putting it off.

Now that the Dragon King of Zhenhai mentioned this matter, it's just old news to her. She now has a whole game operations team that the Chinese nation helped her recruit! It wouldn't be difficult for them to design a large-scale random team dungeon by working overtime, right?
Thinking of this, she smiled slightly and said arrogantly, "Why not let my Taiyin Sect disciples help me?"

"?"

This time, not only Yinglong King, but even Pingjun and Zhenhai Dragon King, who were usually quite friendly and polite, looked at Fang Xianyu with shock and confusion.

Pingjun couldn't help but kindly remind them: "The demons lingering in the Five-Colored Array are mostly true demons and demon lords, all of whom are sentient beings, quite different from ordinary Nine Nether Demons. Even if our Flood Dragon Clan were to confront them, it would be difficult for us to come out on top!"

The Dragon King of Zhenhai also politely declined, saying, "We appreciate Sect Leader Fang's kindness, but guarding the Five-Colored Array is a responsibility left to us by the ancient gods. How can we drag others down with us?"

King Yinglong wanted to make a sarcastic remark, but when he thought about how his dragon clan had indeed received a favor from the other party, he had to restrain his urge to complain and reluctantly pursed his lips.

Fang Xianyu smiled again and said, "Although the disciples of my Taiyin Sect have mediocre cultivation, their cultivation methods and techniques have their own unique aspects. Moreover, they have a major advantage that none of you have—they are not afraid of death. If the puppet is destroyed, a new one can be attached, so there will be no casualties."

The Dragon King of Zhenhai hesitated for a moment—being unafraid of death was indeed a great advantage, and seeing that Fang Xianyu really wanted to help, he nodded and said, "Well... then, why don't we have them come with me to be responsible for relaying messages and transporting supplies!"

Unexpectedly, Fang Xianyu was still very dissatisfied with what the others considered a very compromise. However, this time she did not simply refute, but instead suggested, "How about this, our Taiyin Sect will conduct a 'military exercise' tomorrow. You Dragon Lords can stay for the night, see the strength of the Taiyin Sect disciples tomorrow, and then we can discuss this matter again."

"Even if..." King Yinglong couldn't hold back any longer and opened his mouth to say something sarcastic, but was pulled behind him by the usually gentle and polite Pingjun.

Pingjun spoke first, "Then we shall respectfully comply!"

Having said that, Fang Xianyu led the group... cough, the dragons, to arrange several relatively large courtyards—at least so that when they transformed into their original forms, they wouldn't be too restrained in their claws.

"Oh, right, there's something I need to tell the three Dragon Lords," Fang Xianyu said suddenly as he was leading the Zhenhai Dragon King, first escorting the Yinglong King and Pingjun into the arranged courtyard, "The disciples of the Taiyin Sect can sometimes be... too lively, to the point that they might offend you..."

The Dragon King of Zhenhai quickly assured him, "Sect Master Fang, rest assured, we won't hold such a grudge!"

"No, Lord Zhenhai, you misunderstand. What I mean is, if any Taiyin Sect disciple offends you, you can simply kill them!"

The Dragon King of the Sea was so frightened that he could barely speak: "Kill, kill, kill, kill them all!?"

Fang Xianyu nodded emphatically: "Yes, otherwise they won't learn their lesson. You can set up an isolation array outside the courtyard, but if there are any Taiyin Sect disciples who are too curious, they might still try to break down the door and climb over the wall... Well, in short, if they do anything inappropriate, the three Dragon Lords don't need to worry. Just kill them directly. Anyway, they can be resurrected."

The Dragon King of Zhenhai felt his worldview crumbling. He stammered, "This...this...can everyone in the Taiyin Sect be resurrected?"

Fang Xianyu said, "Oh, that's not it. Only disciples of the Taiyin Sect can do it. If they are demon cultivators or from other sects, they can't... However, there is actually one exception in my Taiyin Sect—a disciple I took in in the Guixu Realm. He can't do it either, but he is kind-hearted and won't cause trouble."

Seeing that the two were going back and forth without getting to the point, King Yinglong couldn't help but interject and summarize: "Actually, what you're saying is that anyone who can be identified as a puppet can be killed?"

Pingjun scolded, "Jinyi! How can you say that! They are just children who are not even a hundred years old. Even if they did something inappropriate, how can you make a fuss about it!"

King Yinglong tugged at Pingjun's hand, feeling somewhat aggrieved: "That's what Sect Leader Fang said, I was just saying it!"

Fang Xianyu quickly nodded and emphasized, "What the Dragon King said is correct. The three Dragon Lords don't need to give me face. In short, if any Taiyin Sect disciple who walks in a puppet form offends you, just kill him!"

She couldn't even imagine what outrageous things these players would do after they found out these three "people" were actually dragons, without her watching over them!

Not to mention that even though she was always watching and lowering her favorability rating, and Jun Chou was always watching and helping to lower her public morality rating, players still kept trying to break down her door, touch her skirt, and some even dared to pull her hair!

If, by some chance, a dragon lord were to suddenly relax and transform into its original form, and this were seen by everyone, many players would probably risk being locked up in a dark room just to try and get some "rare materials" like dragon scales!
