Chapter 528

Half a month later, Tao Zi finally got in touch with Xing Zhan and others.

Compared with before, Xing Zhan and others seemed much calmer and wealthier.

Liu Yue took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "The city lord has passed on the message that the aristocratic families will not be involved in this matter, and they have no spare energy to participate in this matter. However, the disciples who have already entered the sect can only obey the sect's arrangements."

Tao Zi was not surprised by the family's decision. After all, it is impossible to put two eggs in one basket.

She simply asked, "How are you and the city lord?"

Liu Yue said, "I'm apparently dead, but the City Lord still made things easier for me. Besides, my people in the City Lord's Mansion haven't been completely withdrawn."

Tao Zi nodded slightly, then asked, "What do you decide to do next?"

The three of them were stunned for a moment, and finally Xing Zhan spoke up, "I'll follow Senior Sister's instructions."

Tao Zi asked, "What if I don't make any arrangements? What do you want to do?"

Wu Yue blurted out: "Practice, and then wait for Senior Sister..."

Before he could finish the rest of the sentence, Liu Yue stepped on him and successfully shut him up.

Tao Zi was silent for a moment before she said, "Senior Sister's greatest revenge has been taken, and the Ming Lan Sect is gone. You should have your own ideas. How can you just follow my instructions for everything?"

Wu Yue hesitated for a moment, then looked at Liu Yue and the others before saying, "Senior Sister, we know what you mean, but we really don't know what to do."

Liu Yue suddenly said, "Senior Sister, we have never stopped practicing, but it seems to be useless. Whether in the past or now, we can never keep up with you. We want to move forward on our own, rather than being dragged along by you. We can never help you."

Tao Zi turned her gaze to Cheng Wuchou, who looked at Cheng Luo silently.

Cheng Luo was originally laughing, but when he noticed the gaze, his smile suddenly stopped and his eyes drifted around, refusing to meet Tao Zi's gaze.

Tao Zi sighed deeply and said, "Did you receive the news?"

Xing Zhan nodded calmly and said, "Yes. But we only know that Senior Sister has a method that can make us stronger, but it may require a lot of sacrifice. Senior Sister, we are not afraid of sacrifice."

Liu Yue's eyes were bright, and she didn't say much, but just called out, "Senior Sister."

The same is true when there is no moon.

Tao Zi smiled helplessly and said, "Don't worry, I originally planned to let you handle this. What I just said was just to let you make the decision on your own instead of just thinking about me."

Liu Yue stood up and said solemnly, "The way of the world is that the strong are respected. Sister, we want to become stronger, no matter what the cost. This is not only for you, but also for ourselves."

She looked at their serious expressions and said, "As long as this is something you sincerely want to do, I will naturally support you."

Tao Zi took out the blueprint and the medicine, pushed them in front of them, and briefly explained their usage and consequences.

Liu Yue's eyes lit up and she said, "Senior Sister, we are body cultivators and can withstand much more torture than those mortals."

Xing Zhan said, "Don't worry, Senior Sister. We will use it with caution and try not to cause any deaths."

Tao Zi looked at the liquid medicine and suddenly said, "Yu Niang, if you have time, go find Yu Niang next to Shao Hua Jushi. She might be willing to lend you a hand."

"Yes, Senior Sister."

After they left, Cheng Luo said slowly, "Even if I hadn't leaked the news, their choice wouldn't have changed. In the world of immortal cultivation, who doesn't want to become stronger?"

Tao Zi said: "Of course I know, but I'm still worried."

Cheng Luo rolled his eyes secretly and said, "Those who know you will say you are my senior sister, and those who don't know you will think you are my mother-in-law."

The next second, Cheng Luo was kicked by Cheng Wuchou.

Tao Zi thought about it seriously and felt that she had indeed thought too much about this matter and should change it.

Not long after, Wangxu also came. He did not come alone, but came with a man and a corpse.

Looking at the familiar corpse, Tao Zi was silent.

Wang Xu said, "The Sword Sect promised to give you Qinglan's body, and they will naturally do it."

"Thank you very much."

She collected the body and decided to erect a tombstone for her master regardless of whether he was dead or not. If he came back to life in the future, she would dig up the grave and throw the body on his head.

Wang Xu then added, "I can't stay too long, lest the Tiandao Sect notice. To make a long story short, regarding the matter of Xujia Sect, the Jian Sect cannot and will not take action. Although the Tiandao Sect has concealed something in this matter, the Xujia Sect does deserve to die."

Tao Zi nodded: "This, you have said it before, and I understand it."

Cheng Luo sneered, "You make it sound like Xujiamen needs your help."

Wang Xu smiled slightly and said politely, "There is no Xujia Sect anymore."

Cheng Luo choked up, his temper rising: "Our sect has been doing this for a long time. If your Sword Sect was really as upright as you say, you would have taken action long ago!"

Wang Xu's expression remained unchanged, and his tone was calm: "Didn't the Sword Sect warn the Xujia Sect? They warned once, corrected once, and then what? You know your mistakes but refuse to change them. That's exactly what I'm talking about, the Xujia Sect."

"Hey, then why don't you just take action directly like the Tiandao Sect? You're the ones I'm talking about as hypocrites!"

Wang Xu glanced at them and said, "On the surface, you are arresting evildoers. If the Sword Sect stands up for them, even if they are right, they will become wrong."

Cheng Luo continued to taunt: "The Tiandao Sect can come forward, but you can't?"

"The Tiandao Sect didn't reveal what those victims did."

Cheng Luo choked again, and said with a dark face: "Yes, yes, your Sword Sect is the most upright."

Wang Xu didn't bother to pay attention to this guy who was in a bad mood and deliberately looking for trouble. He looked at Tao Zi again and said, "Junior Sister Qingling and the others were looking for you, but they didn't deal with the problem properly. As for Qingya, I asked him to stay in the Sword Sect recently to avoid some petty guys from causing trouble for him."

"Thank you very much."

Wang Xu waved his hand and said, "You're welcome. Qingya is also my friend, and I must protect him. By the way, Master asked me to pass on a message to you."

"Please go ahead."

"The one from the Tiandao Sect, what he does is destiny and the way of heaven. He has similarities with Qingya, but there are also differences."

Tao Zi reacted immediately and her face gradually turned worse.

Wang Xu saw her react, sighed softly, and said: "Qingya's luck is too strong, we have to watch. As for you, as the one chosen by the heaven, it won't be much better."

Cheng Luo sneered, "Isn't he afraid of going too far and being forced to nourish the Heavenly Dao?"

Wang Xu lowered his eyes and said, "He has lived for so long, he must have his own methods."

Cheng Wuchou looked puzzled and said, "I thought the Tiandao Sect was controlled by the Heavenly Dao, but I never thought that he was actually the one sucking the blood of the Heavenly Dao."
