I saved the entire sect by playing idly by letting things fall apart.

Just as Song Hansheng had predicted, the cultivation world was full of all sorts of people, and there were countless sects below the Five Sects. It was rare for a sect leader to be absent from the sect. Once they got the chance, they would pounce like hyenas smelling meat, trying to tear off a piece of flesh.

Several cultivators gathered around the Moon Purity Sect's gate were also discussing the matter.

They each have their own sects, all of which are below the Five Great Sects. Hidden among the crowd are also elders of smaller sects, whose cultivation levels are generally at the Nascent Soul stage.

The discussion is also revolving around the five sects.

"Which of these sects do you think is stronger?" They all understood the principle of picking on the weak. It wasn't shameful to want to get a share while the five sect leaders were away, and the surrounding smaller sects were all eager to try.

"Each has its own unique characteristics, but if we're talking about something truly mysterious and extraordinary, then it has to be the Changming Sect."

"None of those who come out of their sect are good-for-nothings."

An old man closed his eyes slightly in deep thought. "It is said that even that unreliable senior uncle of the Changming Sect is invincible below the Tribulation Transcending level."

Even renowned sects like the Five Sects would have to think twice before trying to take advantage of the chaos.

The Azure Water Sect is the easiest to deal with, but they are too rich. They have made countless powerful figures owe them favors by selling pills, and their connections and backing are too strong. They are too powerful to offend.

Therefore, after weighing the pros and cons and giving it careful consideration, they decided to target the Yueqing Sect, which was entirely composed of talisman cultivators.

Anyway, none of the talisman cultivators in their sect have the guts to hurt anyone.

Didn't they see that the elders and disciples were completely at a loss when faced with a huge group of rogue cultivators blocking the barrier outside?

Su Zhuo was extremely agitated by the current situation. He rubbed his hands together, suppressing the dangerous urge to kill all the cultivators blocking the barrier, and asked, "What is Ye Qiao planning to do?"

No one would want to not cooperate with Ye Qiao; who wouldn't like to be friends with a strong person?

However, the other party's ability to cause trouble is obvious to all, making it hard not to suspect that she came to their door with some special purpose.

Song Hansheng's expression was strange. After hesitating for a moment, he spoke the other party's words, "She asked us to go and find out what's inside the forbidden areas of the Changming Sect, the Wenjian Sect, and the Bishui Sect."

"She single-handedly and skillfully used the 'Ten Thousand Swords Return to One' set with Ye Qinghan." The young man's eyes widened slightly. "And in the end, she actually sent you into a forbidden area like that?"

Su Zhuo has lived for over a decade and has never been imprisoned in a forbidden area. Does he really think everyone is like the five members of the Changming Sect, who can enter the forbidden area as easily as going home?

He certainly didn't know who those two sword techniques came from, nor had he ever seen what Ye Qiao's sword energy was like. This unexpected news was told to them by Dai Zhiye.

Dai Zhiye had been taken to the Ming family by Ming Xuan before, and Ming Xuan personally admitted that it was his junior sister's sword technique. As Ye Qiao's senior brother, he must have witnessed her sword aura.

"Let's settle things first, before Ye Qiao arrives." Song Hansheng's voice was slightly indifferent.

He didn't want to have to wait for the other party to come to his rescue every time.

This is probably the subtle competitive spirit between close disciples.

"How should we set it up..." Su Zhuo hadn't even finished speaking when he saw his rational and calm senior brother raise his hand without warning. The Bright Moon Arrow materialized in his hand, and a spirit arrow condensed at his fingertips, suddenly aiming at the area below.

Su Zhuo's voice trembled slightly: "What are you doing?"

Song Hansheng said calmly, "Didn't you notice?"

"I'm going to shoot them all dead."

He didn't even stop making a sound.

With cultivators below, making no attempt to conceal their true intentions, how could they not hear what he was saying?

A large, densely packed group of people.

He was clearly not trying to scare those people; after saying that, he walked out of the barrier.

With a dozen or so talismans hovering around him in a defensive posture to ensure he wouldn't be attacked unexpectedly, Song Hansheng let out a breath. The pent-up frustration from the past few days successfully overwhelmed his reason, and the young man unceremoniously fired his arrows, hitting the target every time.

"Who is it?"

Song Hansheng sneered: "Your father."

Su Zhuo's lips twitched violently. "Don't follow Ye Qiao's example, Senior Brother."

The moment the arrow pierced his body, the person in front of him collapsed without warning.

It looked like it was dead.

This is the effect of the Moon Arrow; it won't kill, but it can knock a person to the ground.

"Song Hansheng!!" Someone below immediately roared in anger, "What do you intend to do? Shoot cultivators at will?"

Song Hansheng stared at them coldly.

"Aren't you going to give us an explanation?" someone asked immediately. They didn't care about the life or death of a stranger; all they wanted was to force these sects to compromise.

"What kind of explanation do you want to hear? I don't need an explanation, nor do I need to reflect on myself." Song Hansheng felt that their thinking was wrong. "I just need to blame others."

Su Zhuo: "..."

Well, the Yueqing Sect is indeed hypocritical, and they rarely reflect on their own actions when things go wrong.

But damn it, anyone can say nice things, right? Song Hansheng used to be able to put on a dignified act, so why is he letting loose today?

"Are you looking down on us? You attacked us without even offering an explanation? Do you really think you can act with impunity?"

"Yes," he readily admitted, "I do look down on you all."

Song Hansheng's prejudice against rogue cultivators has remained unchanged for more than a decade.

Su Zhuo: "..." Confirmed, Song Hansheng has indeed gone mad.

His mind raced. What would become of their Moon Purity Sect in the future? Should they make Zhai Chen the sect leader? No, he didn't have the mind for management. Ming Yi? He seemed quite intelligent, but was actually a bit slow-witted. Even less suitable.

In a short time, he had already figured out how he would support the sect after Song Hansheng went mad.

"..."

crazy?

No matter how much the other disciples misbehaved, at least the five chief disciples of these five sects remained calm.

If Song Hansheng weren't a sword cultivator who wouldn't resort to violence without a word, he would have been so resentful that he wanted to punch through the entire cultivation world.

Major sects have a clear hierarchy, and this situation has never occurred before.

The elder temporarily brought the chaotic situation under control. Dai Zhi, the only swordsman among the direct disciples, put on a deadpan expression, brandished his sword, threatened the rogue cultivators on this side, and then hurriedly ran to threaten the rogue cultivators on the other side, but the effect was not significant.

Miraculously, thanks to Song Hansheng's actions that blurred the lines between friend and foe, the situation was brought under control.

Anyone who utters another word will be met with a barrage of arrows.

Ignoring their unpleasant expressions, Song Hansheng continued, "Survival of the fittest, the strong prey on the weak, and the survival of the fittest."

"Do I need to make myself clearer?" His voice was full of malice, each word clearly transmitted through the barrier, "The so-called talentless idiots are you."

Song Hansheng's words enraged everyone present.

Feeling subtly insulted, they nearly launched a coordinated attack on their protégé. However, Song Hansheng had learned his lesson; before they could act, he stepped into the barrier first.

"Song Hansheng, if you've got the guts, don't hide. I'll tear you apart!" The hot-tempered swordsman shouted first.

Song Hansheng sized the other person up and down, a mocking smile playing on his lips. "You think you can compete with a poor wretch like you?"

Sword cultivators are generally poor. This is not a stereotype. They are not as good as weapon cultivators who can forge weapons, nor as good as pill cultivators who can refine pills, nor as good as talisman cultivators who have a variety of skills. They only know how to fight. In the cultivation world where sword cultivators are almost everywhere, it is difficult for them to earn spirit stones.

This is far too offensive. Even if Changming Sect was poor, Song Hansheng would never use such an insulting term as "poor ghost."

The rogue cultivators, deeply wounded by his words, were teetering on the brink of madness, but reason told them that there was no benefit in confronting these direct disciples head-on.

Song Hansheng was clearly launching an indiscriminate attack; who knows what irreversible damage the spirit arrow might cause once it entered the body?

Seeing that the situation was not going well, the other disciples and elders from the smaller sects who had started the disturbance quietly withdrew.

They hadn't expected that a talisman cultivator would choose such an extreme method.

However, the effect was not bad. Since Yueqingzong had committed murder, they had to give an explanation. They all dispersed in twos and threes, believing that they had achieved their goal.

Seeing that the vanguard had left, the remaining independent cultivators were caught in a dilemma, unsure whether to stay or leave.

At the late Nascent Soul stage at the age of twenty, he could potentially become the head of the Song family and the heir to the Yueqing Sect.

They are all people you shouldn't easily mess with.

The rogue cultivators gathered quickly and dispersed just as fast. Apart from a few stubborn individuals who insisted on guarding the sect's entrance, the current situation was much better than the previous scene of what appeared to be a zombie siege, with a dense, overwhelming crowd surrounding the area.

Seeing that the scene had quieted down, Su Zhuo also breathed a sigh of relief.

With the matters outside the sect temporarily resolved, they still needed to deal with those within the sect, checking to see if any demons had infiltrated the sect. This was undoubtedly a significant test for them.

*

Ye Qiao didn't return to Changming Sect. Instead, she went to Yueqing Sect to borrow the Bright Moon Arrow and then changed course to Wenjian Sect. To her slight surprise, Song Hansheng resolved the situation quite quickly this time.

She thought she would have to wait at least a while.

Borrowing the Moon Arrow went smoothly. Before leaving, Song Hansheng repeatedly told her that the magical artifacts of the Changming Sect were strange, so Ye Qiao felt that it was safe to ask the Sword Sect first.

The spiritual weapons of the Sword Inquiry Sect are nothing more than swords. With four transformed spiritual swords in her hands, she was fairly confident in dealing with them.

Amidst the chaos within and outside other sects, Mu Chongxi and Zhou Xingyun returned to Changming Sect immediately.

There should only be Mingxuan and Xueyu left in the sect. All three of the capable sword cultivators are gone. If the two senior brothers go back, they can at least control the chaotic sect.

Ye Qiao stuffed the Bright Moon Arrow into the mustard seed bag and found that the situation of the Sword Inquiry Sect was much better than that of the other sects. Perhaps it was because the Myriad Swords Return to the Sect was so shocking that no one dared to run wild at the foot of the Sword Inquiry Sect.

Relying on her concealment techniques, she was able to enter the Sword Inquiry Sect without alerting anyone.

But Ye Qiao forgot an important question: she didn't know where the forbidden area of ​​the Sword Inquiry Sect was.

After searching around and still finding nothing, Ye Qiao calmed down for a few seconds and quickly thought about whether it was more likely to be killed or imprisoned in the forbidden area if he ambushed an elder in the Sword Inquiry Sect.
