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

Ye Qiao shook the mustard bag. Although she wasn't sure how many trump cards Yun Que had, she had at least gathered a lot of resources by using whatever she could find.

Even if they can't compare to Yunque, they're not without a chance of winning in terms of resources.

……

For the next few days, Ye Qiao followed Mu Chongxi closely. Rumors circulated in the sect that she liked Mu Chongxi, and Ye Qiao's expression became distorted. It's hard to imagine how those people were pointing fingers at her.

Not only did they steal from the medicinal herb fields and empty the canteen, but they also dared to target the direct disciples of their Changming Sect. They are utterly shameless!

She gets glared at frequently whenever she goes out.

Ye Qiao: "...Damn it."

Mu Li was speechless: "How did you manage to get worse and worse reputation the harder you worked?" His dislike for Ye Qiao did not mean that he would deny Ye Qiao's abilities. After all, which great master in the Tribulation Trial was not arrogant and domineering?

When Mu Li was undergoing trials, he didn't care whether the world was real or fake; to him, all living beings were like ants.

At the peak of the Integration Realm, one can look down upon the entire cultivation world; if you're not happy, just kill them.

Whether you ask yourself the truth or seek answers from the moral high ground, he has nothing to be ashamed of.

He didn't know whether to sigh or find it rare: "To be able to become a rat crossing the street in the Tribulation Trial is the first time I've ever seen anyone do this."

She said, "...I didn't want to either."

Ye Qiao was genuinely worried about Mu Chongxi, but to outsiders, that wasn't the case.

Xie Chuxue must have memories of witnessing the destruction of the Changming Sect many times before, but he couldn't do anything about it. His intervention was futile. The only one who could intervene was Ye Qiao, the outsider.

He wanted to test her, which is why he was trying to probe indirectly.

However, Ye Qiao, by feigning madness and acting foolish, never revealed a single word of her purpose to him.

Not only did Xie Chuxue distrust Ye Qiao, but Ye Qiao was also wary of Xie Chuxue.

After all, this was not just a rescue operation, but also her trial to overcome a tribulation.

In this world, Xie Chuxue could only describe her as having a slight affection for her as a martial uncle, but not much of it.

She simply couldn't believe him.

And as expected, a month passed, and the novel's plot unfolded.

Ye Qiao followed Mu Chongxi even closer, but Mu Chongxi's cultivation level was much higher than hers, and he also had several more years of combat experience. If he really wanted to run away, Ye Qiao wouldn't be able to keep up with him at all.

The moment he slipped down the mountain, Ye Qiao breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a sense of relief that everything had finally settled down.

Fortunately, he wasn't going to find Yun Que this time, but was taken down the mountain by Xie Chuxue. That junior uncle was up to some strange trick and handed the sect leader's token to Zhou Xingyun.

The senior disciple and she exchanged glances, then the senior disciple leaned down and whispered, "The special circumstance you're referring to, is it this time?"

She said it.

Zhou Xingyun never told anyone.

Ye Qiao nodded.

One month.

It's been exactly one month now.

The time is just right.

"Then I will go find Ye Qinghan and Qin Huai." Without hesitation, he chose to trust Ye Qiao immediately.

Zhou Xingyun's brain circuits are unusual, but surprisingly simple.

He was the only one who believed her unconditionally. Ye Qiao almost couldn't help but pull him aside to explain that being too trusting of strangers could lead to encountering bad people.

But in the end, she held back.

The sect definitely needs to retain people, and the sect affairs are entrusted to Xue Yu for arrangement. The cultivators of the Amorous Path are generally more intelligent and have an extraordinary talent for management, and they can manage the sect in an orderly manner. Zhou Xingyun asked her to pass it on to Xue Yu.

In the absence of a leader, the token is handed over to the one with the highest cultivation level.

Then only Xue Yu is left in the sect who can take on the responsibility.

Zhou Xingyun tossed the token to her and gestured for her to give it to Xue Yu.

Ye Qiao: "..."

No, wait.

So they left her and Xue Yu behind?

Ye Qiao took the token and pondered, "Could it be that Xie Chuxue took Mu Chongxi away because she knew in advance that there was going to be a fierce battle outside, so she deliberately left her in the relatively safe sect?"

Damn, you look down on her, don't you?

Moreover, the battles within the sect are no easier to deal with than those outside the sect. Outside the sect, it's a major battle between the Green Hat F4, while inside the sect, it's a guessing game to see who the undercover agent is. Not only might you not be able to guess, but you also risk being exposed by the undercover agent at any time.

"This token," Ye Qiao examined it from head to toe, "is it said to belong to whoever is strongest? Does it have the power to command the elders?"

Ye Qiao felt that this restriction was unreasonable.

Whoever is stronger gets to keep it.

What if they have ill intentions?

Didn't they consider this issue?

"In fact, the contract for the tokens is a two-way agreement. It's simply a matter of mutual checks and balances."

Mu Li smiled: "As long as the sect exists, you exist. If the sect ceases to exist, what do you think will happen to the person holding the sect leader's token?"

Therefore, no one would risk their own destruction.

Ye Qiao sighed, but she was afraid of encountering abnormal people.

Currently, the strongest person in the sect is Xue Yu, who is at the Void Refinement stage.

The elders were all around the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, while Elder Zhao was at the Void Refinement stage, but in terms of overall strength, he was inferior to Xue Yu.

Ye Qiao tossed the token up and down, stared blankly for a while, and then prepared to give it to Xue Yu.

But as she touched the token from both sides, her expression suddenly changed: "Something's not right."

Mu Li: "Hmm?"

Ye Qiao also possessed a sect leader's token.

Elder Zhao from her world asked her to pass it on to her senior brother, but Ye Qiao had been in the Cloud and Mist Secret Realm and had forgotten about the token in her storage bag.

She subconsciously found the Lord's Decree of her own world.

After carefully comparing the two tokens, it would have been fine without comparison, but with comparison, the difference between the two became apparent.

It is known that Xie Chuxue's possession could not possibly be fake.

After all, since Qin Fanfan left, the token has always been in the control of Junior Uncle. He would not give Zhou Xingyun a fake token, as that would not benefit Changming Sect at all.

...Then it can only mean that the token in her world is fake.

Ye Qiao stared thoughtfully at the two tokens.

Fake ones are naturally useless.

But it would be a shame to throw it away.

Since Elder Zhao's token could be switched without anyone noticing, it means that person will come back to exchange the two tokens.

Ye Qiao swapped the two tokens, tossing the real one into her storage bag and casually returning the fake one to Xue Yu.

Xue Yu naturally had no doubts.

After all, it was the first time he had ever touched a token, and he didn't know what secrets it held.

After hanging it on his waist, the boy blinked and smiled, "I've been looking for you for a long time."
