"You immediately and respectfully apologize to the White Cultivator! You brat, you're utterly ignorant and arrogant! Don't think that just because you've reached the Golden Core stage, you can look down on everyone. You're still far from it. Quickly apologize honestly!" The Crane Cloud Sect Master's face was full of anger as he stared intently at Wang Qiuchi. As he spoke, he kicked him.

Upon hearing this, Wang Qiuchi's body stiffened abruptly, a fleeting look of undisguised embarrassment and resentment crossing his face. However, his master's imposing presence pressed down like a mountain, leaving him utterly powerless to resist. He bit his lower lip so hard his teeth almost dug into his flesh, his hands unconsciously clenching into fists inside his sleeves, his knuckles turning white from the force.

After a brief standoff, he finally turned his head reluctantly to face Bai Ying, and squeezed out two words through gritted teeth: "I'm sorry!"

Seeing that his disciple had apologized, the sect leader of Heyun Sect quickly walked up to Bai Ying, bowed slightly, and said with a sincere smile, "It's all because my disciple is ignorant and has made a big mistake. I hope that Cultivator Bai will be magnanimous and forgive them this time." As he spoke, he bowed slightly and performed a deep bow.

Bai Ying remained calm, nodded slightly to the sect leader of Heyun Sect, and then said, "Consider this the first time, and hopefully the last. If such rudeness occurs again in the future, please leave my group. At that time, I will not offer any assistance."

The sect leader of Crane Cloud Sect nodded hurriedly, saying repeatedly, "Yes, yes, yes, don't worry, Cultivator Bai, there will never be a next time."

Wang Qiuchi frowned deeply, his gaze shifting back and forth across Bai Ying, trying to find even the slightest trace of a powerful person in her, but apart from her indifferent demeanor, he found nothing.

So young, so ordinary, it's simply unbelievable.

Previously, when Wang Qiuchi heard of the White Cultivator's name, he was indeed filled with admiration, a heartfelt respect for the strong.

But now that he has seen Bai Ying in person, he really can't convince himself.

At this moment, a faint doubt arose in his heart. He wondered if this so-called white cultivator was just a figurehead, or even a fraudster.

After all, in the cultivation world, where strength reigns supreme, whenever a powerful individual displays astonishing power, the resulting battle scenes are bound to be recorded and circulated. But for the White Cultivator, aside from the praise from the crowd, not even a single scene of his battle has been leaked.

Suddenly, a phrase he had heard from a senior brother flashed through his mind. That senior brother had confidently asserted that the reason the white cultivator was able to kill so many Nascent Soul stage experts was merely due to a stroke of luck.

She used the corpse of a True Immortal and relied on the powerful residual energy of the True Immortal to defeat those experts. The truly powerful one was the corpse of the True Immortal, not Bai Ying herself.

At that time, when Wang Qiuchi heard these words, he secretly mocked his senior brother for being narrow-minded, thinking that he must be jealous of Bai Xiushi's illustrious reputation to fabricate such nonsense. But now, seeing Bai Ying's excessively youthful appearance with his own eyes, and recalling the arduous journeys of many powerful figures in the cultivation world to fame, his belief began to waver.

Perhaps what my senior brother said is actually true...

Thinking this, Wang Qiuchi's nerves, which had been as tense as a bowstring because of facing Bai Ying, quietly relaxed a little. The stiff expression on his face gradually eased, the corners of his mouth turned down slightly, and a barely perceptible hint of contempt flashed in his eyes.

Finally, after the sect leader of Heyun Sect finished apologizing to Bai Ying and turned to leave, Wang Qiuchi couldn't wait to quickly return to his sect's ranks.

As soon as he returned to the group, he quickly gathered his fellow disciples and poured out all his thoughts.

“Let me tell you, I now understand what’s going on. That white cultivator might not be anything special after all.” Wang Qiuchi spoke with great enthusiasm, his expression exaggerated. “She was able to defeat those Nascent Soul stage experts entirely thanks to the help of True Immortal corpses.”

"Is that really true?" A fellow disciple stared wide-eyed, his face full of surprise, and asked in disbelief.

"But how can this be proven?" Another fellow disciple frowned, his face full of doubt, and raised the question in his mind.

Wang Qiuchi's lips curled into a cold smile, a hint of malice flashing in his eyes. Without saying a word, he immediately took out several Beast-Attracting Pills from his storage bag.

He stared intently at Bai Ying not far away, as if he wanted to devour her alive.

"This Cangmang Mountain secret realm is teeming with demonic beasts. My master said that the beasts there are extremely terrifying. In that case, once we enter the secret realm, I will immediately use this beast-attracting grass to lure the demonic beasts out. I want to see if this White Firefly can handle them."

When Wang Qiuchi entered the Cangmang Mountain Secret Realm, his master specifically instructed him not to use Beast-Attracting Pills inside. This secret realm had been isolated from the world for many years, and the demonic beasts inside were completely different from those outside, exceptionally ferocious. They could only use Beast-Repelling Pills to conceal their auras so that the demonic beasts could not detect them. If they attracted the demonic beasts inside the secret realm, they would be doomed.

But at this moment, Wang Qiuchi's disgust for Bai Ying made him disregard everything else.

He was now at the peak of the Golden Core realm, and had long since led his fellow disciples to countless secret realms. He wasn't afraid of mere demonic beasts at all; he wished he could lure them all out and teach Bai Ying a good lesson.

—

After Bai Ying led them into the Cangmang Mountain Secret Realm, Wang Qiuchi immediately took out all the Beast-Attracting Pills. He even crushed one of them, and the fragrance of the pill filled the air.
