Fairy, you call this repaying a debt of gratitude?

Shen Wei followed the direction Wen Jingxing had left and walked quickly. Before long, he found the flower hall of the Wen residence.

The so-called flower hall is not a regular hall, but an elegant pavilion surrounded by blooming flowers. The fragrance of flowers wafts through the air when the wind blows, making it a quiet and elegant place.

Brother Shen, it seems you have a story with that Miss Qin...?

"We're just acquaintances."

Seeing this, Wen Jingxing knew that Shen Wei was unwilling to talk about this matter. Although he was curious, he wisely did not ask any further questions.

After Shen Wei sat down, Wen Jingxing instructed a maid to bring over the Moonlit Immortal Wine.

Moonlit Immortal Brew is a top-tier immortal brew passed down through the Fuyou Sect. Nourished by the moonlight of a thousand years and made from spiritual roots of ten thousand years, the brewed liquid flows like moonlight. It not only has the effect of prolonging life, but also helps low-level cultivators cleanse their meridians and transform their marrow.

Of course, for cultivators like Shen Weiwen and Jingxing, whose cultivation levels are already considered high, this Moonlit Immortal Brew is merely a fine brew with excellent taste.

"This is Moonlit Immortal Wine, a gift from the sect when I became an inner disciple."

When he said this, Wen Jingxing seemed to have a bitter expression on his face.

After filling the glass, Wen Jingxing got straight to the point:

"A few days ago, Brother Shen captured two members of the Jade Dew Sect at the Wind and Moon Pavilion. Do you know what astonishing secrets we extracted from them?"

Tell me about it.

"Those two were very stubborn. At first, they refused to speak no matter what we did. We had to use some interrogation methods, and even used the Soul Searching Technique, before we could barely pry them open."

Wen Jingxing lowered his voice to a very low hue:

"That woman was indeed from the Jade Dew Sect, but that man dressed in simple clothes and looking like a rogue cultivator was actually a direct disciple of the Soaring Cloud Sect!"

"How could this be? Doesn't that mean...?"

As expected, the Wen siblings were genuinely unaware of the connection between the Fuyou Sect and the Yulu Sect.

Although he already knew what was going on, Shen Wei still cooperated by showing an incredulous expression.

Wen Jingxing was very satisfied with Shen Wei's reaction, because his reaction when he first heard the news was similar to Shen Wei's.

"I should be the one who finds this hardest to accept... but that's the truth."

As Wen Jingxing finished speaking, he took a large sip of the immortal wine, indicating that this matter had indeed dealt him a significant blow.

The fact that those sects had stood idly by had already made him disillusioned with the so-called morality of the cultivation world. Now, learning that the Fuyou Sect, which had nurtured him, was actually secretly supporting the Yulu Sect in attacking Qingyun City, his disappointment was compounded.

Upon hearing this, Shen Wei could only offer advice from another angle:

"Brother Wen, please rest assured. At least we have found out who is providing assistance to the Jade Dew Sect. It is better than being completely ignorant and waiting for our doom. We can also plan a countermeasure in advance."

Wen Jingxing nodded in agreement, "That's for sure. No matter who is secretly helping us behind the scenes, no matter their identity, as long as the safety of the people of Qingyun City is threatened, I will draw my sword against them, even if it is the Fuyou Sect that nurtured me and for whom I owe a debt of gratitude, I will never tolerate it!"

These words were spoken with force and great momentum.

He seems to be a man of great integrity, Shen Wei thought to himself.

"Brother Wen's righteousness is truly admirable. Since that's the case, Brother Wen must have something important to tell me by summoning me here. Please speak frankly."

"That's right. During the interrogation a few days ago, we not only learned that the Fuyou Sect and the Jade Dew Sect were involved, but more importantly, we found out that an elder from the Jade Dew Sect was going to meet with an elder from the Fuyou Sect to discuss the specific details of the subsequent attack on Qingyun City. This is also the reason why those two appeared at the Fengyue Pavilion."

"so......"

"I think we shouldn't sit idly by and wait to be killed; this is the best opportunity for us to strike."

Shen Wei thought to himself, "Has Wen Jingxing lost his mind? Although he doesn't know much about the Jade Dew Sect, the Fuyou Sect is one of the five great immortal sects. The elders there must be at least at the Nascent Soul stage. With such strength, even if they launch a surprise attack, they wouldn't be a match for them. Could it be that he has some trump card?"

"Brother Wen is absolutely right. Taking the initiative is always better than being on the defensive. But I'm afraid we alone would be no match for the elders of the two major sects. After all, the strength of the elders of the Fuyou Sect is far beyond that of ordinary cultivators."

"Brother Shen is absolutely right. With our current strength, it is indeed a bit of a stretch," Wen Jingxing frankly admitted. "But if Brother Shen were here, I think this matter could be accomplished much more easily."

Shen Wei thought to himself, he always felt that Wen Jingxing had some kind of misunderstanding about him. Was it because he had acted too mysteriously, and Wen Jingxing imagined him as a peerless master in the martial arts world who was burdened with a shameful past and kept his true abilities hidden?

It's true that he carries a heavy past, but he's not some unparalleled master. At least, he's not confident that he can fight against a Nascent Soul stage cultivator on his own.

Seeing Shen Wei's hesitant expression, as if he had some concerns, Wen Jingxing quickly added:

"Of course, we are not acting rashly. After my father told Miss Qin about this matter, she agreed to provide a magical artifact to help us. With that artifact, we will have the confidence to compete with them and have a better chance of winning."

A magical artifact? If it came from Qin Yunshang, it's no wonder Wen Jingxing was so confident.

"This magical artifact is called the 'Synchronization Seal,' and its effects are extraordinary. It can suppress the target's cultivation level to the same level as the user's, and the effect lasts for half a quarter of an hour. The only limitation is that the user's and the target's cultivation levels must not differ by more than one major realm, and they must be within a certain distance for it to take effect."

Same as Xuan Yin.......

He hadn't heard of the name before, but from the description, the effects of such a magical treasure were indeed extraordinary. With this treasure, they could certainly have the strength to contend with the elders of the Fuyou Sect.

"I observe that although Brother Shen is a rogue cultivator without a sect or school, according to Yu Tang's praise, Brother Shen's swordsmanship is superb, and his martial arts techniques combine the strengths of various schools to form his own unique style, which is extremely exquisite. I believe that few people of the same realm can be Brother Shen's match."

While this was a compliment, it was also true. Shen Wei had been through countless battles in the martial arts world since he was a child, and he had come into contact with people from various sects. In addition, he was extremely studious at that time in order to seek revenge, and his most exciting thing was to find out the martial arts techniques he had never seen before from other people's storage rings.

Furthermore, with the blessing of the Evil Dragon, his already high comprehension allowed him to cultivate techniques and study sword skills several times faster than ordinary people, making him virtually invincible at the same level.

"However, this magic weapon is still in Miss Qin's possession. Since Brother Shen and Miss Qin are old acquaintances, why don't you go and retrieve it yourself?"

Wen Jingxing smiled gently.

Shen Wei knew perfectly well that he was doing this on purpose.

This saves me the trouble of showing up myself, and also allows me to test the relationship between the two of them.

Before Shen Wei could answer, Wen Jingxing added to his own words.

"The meeting is scheduled for three days from now. Brother Shen can come to my Wen residence then to meet and discuss the matter further."
