Chapter 171 Wudang Sect Acknowledges Defeat, Eagle King Requests to Return to the Sect
Withdrawing his gaze, Xu Qing glanced at the numerous sect experts he had blasted into serious injury and coldly ordered, "Take them all down!"

"Yes, Sect Master!"

Yang Xiao, Wei Yixiao, and the others obeyed the order and led a group of Ming Cult disciples forward. These heavily injured and immobile masters were all held back with their weapons.

The Wudang Sect members looked extremely solemn upon seeing this scene.

The six major factions joined forces to besiege the Ming Cult.

Nowadays, the Emei Sect has been nowhere to be found, and no one knows what happened to it.

Only the Wudang Sect and the five major sects including Shaolin were present.

Currently, apart from the Wudang Sect, all the masters from other sects are seriously injured, and these disciples are even less likely to be able to withstand the power of the Ming Cult.

At this point, it can be said that the slogan of the so-called six major sects besieging Bright Peak and annihilating the Ming Cult has become an empty promise.

Xu Qing stopped paying attention to the defeated and turned his gaze to the Wudang Sect members.

Of these sects, only the Wudang Sect can be considered a truly prestigious and righteous sect.

Of the seven disciples taught by Master Zhang, one is dead, one is crippled, and the five present are not badly off.

When they saw Xu Qing looking over, Song Yuanqiao and the others felt a chill in their hearts.

If they continue, they will be no match for this Master Xu.

After all, even the four great Shaolin monks, who were stronger than them, suffered such a crushing defeat.

With fewer members, the Seven Heroes of Wudang were unable to unleash the true power of the True Martial Seven Intercept Formation, and they were not confident they could stop such a young grandmaster.

"Are you still going to put up a stubborn resistance?"

Xu Qing spoke slowly. Not to mention for the sake of Master Zhang, even considering his disciple Zhang Wuji, he really didn't want to fight the Wudang Sect.

There wasn't much of a grudge between the two families.

The Wudang disciples remained silent, not daring to look Xu Qing in the eye.

Song Yuanqiao, the leader of the Seven Heroes of Wudang, sighed, clasped his hands in a salute to Xu Qing, and said:
"Master Xu's skills are unparalleled. Our Wudang Sect knows that we are no match for you, and we are unwilling to continue to be enemies with the Ming Cult."

Zhang Songxi, Mo Shenggu, Yin Liting, and the others all looked gloomy; this time, they were indeed powerless to fight against the Ming Cult.

If they continue to resist stubbornly, their fate will not be any better than that of the other four factions.

They all agreed with Song Yuanqiao's approach, thinking it better to just admit defeat.

After all, they didn't have any deep-seated hatred or grudges with the Ming Cult.

Unless they are mortal enemies, there is absolutely no need to escalate the situation to the point of mutual destruction.

Xu Qing nodded slightly. These Seven Heroes of Wudang were quite sensible and intelligent.

"Take them all away."

He waved his hand, signaling Yang Xiao and the others to capture all the Wudang Sect members as well.

"Yes! Sect Master!"

Wei Yixiao, Wu Sanren, and the others were all excited. As expected, the sect leader's intervention directly reversed the situation.

A crisis vanished in an instant!

All the Ming Cult disciples present looked at Xu Qing with a mixture of awe and joy.

It was precisely because of Xu Qing, the leader of the Ming Cult, that they were able to achieve victory in this battle with almost no casualties.

Xu Qing's victory was a resounding success.

No one in the Ming Cult disapproved of him as their new leader.

"Master, what are you going to do with the Wudang Sect? Those are Wuji's uncles, aunts, and fellow disciples. Wuji really doesn't want them to suffer."

Could you please forgive them for their crime this time?

At this moment, Zhang Wuji saw that all the members of the Wudang Sect had been captured and taken to Bright Peak.

He quickly went to Xu Qing's side and asked her questions.

Xu Qing smiled calmly: "I will not leave the Wudang Sect. You may come up with me and recognize them."

"Thank you, Master!" Zhang Wuji said with delight.

Then, he pulled Zhu'er along and chased after them.

Xu Qing glanced at the group of Ming Cult disciples who were cleaning up the battle, nodded slightly, and then walked towards the White-browed Eagle King.

"Is the Eagle King injured?"

Xu Qing had a good impression of the White-browed Eagle King, who was over seventy years old, which was considered quite old.

Even after leaving the Ming Cult, he was still willing to do his best to help the Ming Cult.

He was definitely a very loyal and righteous hero.

Such a person, he naturally hoped that he could return to the Ming Cult. "It's just that his internal energy was too depleted, but it's not a big deal."

The White-browed Eagle King's face was somewhat pale, but his eyes shone brightly and were extremely piercing.

"It was truly thanks to Master Xu's intervention that the situation was reversed this time!"

White-browed Eagle King was secretly relieved. If it weren't for Xu Qing, the Ming Cult would have inevitably fought the five major sects to a standstill.

The result would inevitably be extremely heavy losses.

The entire Ming Cult is very likely to be destroyed as a result.

As a veteran of the Ming Cult, White-browed Eagle King was truly unwilling to see the Ming Cult perish.

Therefore, he felt both fortunate and grateful to Xu Qing.

"As the leader of the Ming Cult, I shall naturally suppress all enemies!" Xu Qing said calmly and indifferently.

"What a magnificent display of suppressing all enemies! A hero emerges from among the young! Master Xu, your martial arts are unparalleled. With someone like you leading the Ming Cult, it is bound to grow stronger!"

The White-browed Eagle King exclaimed excitedly, then bowed to Xu Qing and said, "Master, the White-browed Eagle King Yin Tianzheng requests to join the sect. Please grant his request!"

He saw hope for the Ming Cult's resurgence once again, and no longer wanted to remain independent; he desired to rejoin the Ming Cult.

With this aged body, I will assist Xu Qing in overthrowing the Yuan Dynasty!

Xu Qing quickly helped the White-browed Eagle King up, his face serious, and said, "I am naturally very happy that the Eagle King is willing to return!"

"We pay our respects to the leader!"

Upon seeing this, Yin Yewang and other disciples of the Sky Eagle Sect also knelt down on one knee before Xu Qing, clasped their hands in a fist salute, and shouted excitedly.

"Rise, all of you. There's no need for such formalities."

Xu Qing slightly raised his hand. The return of the Eagle Sect would make the Ming Cult even stronger.

The forces that had overthrown the Yuan Dynasty had also increased, which pleased Xu Qing.

"Master, was that young man your disciple? I noticed his martial arts were superb, and his features seemed somewhat familiar. He even called himself Wuji..."

The White-browed Eagle King then voiced the question that had been lingering in his mind.

When he saw Zhang Wuji, he was somewhat dazed, but the situation was serious at the time, and it was not the right time.

Now that everything is over, he couldn't help but ask.

“Eagle King, your guess is correct. My disciple is your grandson Zhang Wuji.”

Xu Qing smiled upon hearing this and then spoke directly.

"It really is Wuji!?" The White-browed Eagle King's face lit up with surprise.

"What?! The sect leader's disciple is my nephew Zhang Wuji?!"

Yin Yewang was also shocked; his sister Yin Susu's child was still alive.

And he's the cult leader's disciple!
He also possesses exceptional martial arts skills!

He had witnessed Zhang Wuji completely suppressing Yin Liting, demonstrating that Zhang Wuji was far stronger than his uncle.

This is absolutely incredible!
Xu Qing nodded slightly and briefly recounted Zhang Wuji's experiences.

"My poor grandson is really suffering."

White-browed Eagle King sighed. After hearing about Zhang Wuji's plight, he, as the grandfather, felt truly heartbroken.

"Fortunately, Wuji was able to gain the attention of the sect leader and become his disciple. Wuji's suffering has finally come to an end."

Thinking of these things, the White-browed Eagle King's emotions rose slightly.

Xu Qing smiled, chatted for a few minutes, and then asked the White-Browed Eagle King to go and recognize Zhang Wuji.

After so many years apart, the grandfather and grandson were bound to have a long chat.

At this moment, Wei Yixiao used his light-footed skill to arrive at Xu Qing's side. He was very fast. After escorting those people up the mountain, he immediately arrived at Xu Qing's side.

"Master, the Wudang Sect has been moved to a courtyard by your subordinates, while the other sects are all imprisoned in the dungeon," Wei Yixiao reported.

He nodded slightly. This time he didn't kill many people. Apart from Xianyu Tong, the leader of the Huashan Sect, not many people died at his hands.

Killing these guys would only exacerbate the feud between the Ming Cult and the martial arts world.

The main focus of the Ming Cult should not be on martial arts disputes, but on overthrowing the Yuan Dynasty.

This is the general direction, and it won't change.
