"The first batch of immortal sect resources has arrived, boss!"

"That's the Baixian Chamber of Commerce's transport convoy. It will pass through the Hailin Mountains in three days and be delivered to Wanchu City."

The message Jia Zhengyi sent back was brief. How to obtain this resource was a question he needed to consider, and it was also a personal test from the Immortal Sect.

For Jia Zhengyi himself, it wouldn't be difficult to come up with a complete solution, but now that Xiao Linlin was nearby, he simply didn't bother to think about it and just passed the problem on to the little big sister.

Anyway, Xiao Linlin had reminded her before that she should be informed of any relevant information and not make decisions on her own.

No sooner had the information arrived than Xiao Linlin decisively arranged her personnel: "Huang Yi, select all the survivors. I will distribute disguise talismans and ammunition, along with concealment tools, and then the Grandmaster will personally lead the team! Go and wipe out this team!"

Upon hearing the order, Huang Yi was immediately alarmed: "Sister Xiao! This is a resource convoy affiliated with the Immortal Sect! Are we going to attack the Immortal Sect? Even the young sect leader might not be able to control this!"

"If you don't tell me, how will anyone know?"

Xiao Linlin smiled with her eyes slightly narrowed: "Even if they find out, as long as the resources are returned to the Immortal Sect, they won't care too much about this matter."

The fact that this convoy was sent out was actually a tribute to Jia Zhengyi's achievements.

But how to achieve this feat depends on Jia Zhengyi's own intelligence and resourcefulness.

On the surface, the young sect leader himself couldn't directly attack the caravan. Even if he wanted to, he would need to have sufficient covert methods and a proper aftermath.

The reason why Xiao Linlin dared to use such brutal methods and was certain that the Immortal Sect would not hold her accountable afterward was simply because the caravan was sent by the [Hundred Immortals Merchant Guild].

The Hundred Immortals Chamber of Commerce is one of the many chambers of commerce under the Tian Shu Organization, and also a large-scale cultivation and commercial force affiliated with the Tian Shu Organization.

From an outsider's perspective, the Hundred Immortals Chamber of Commerce belongs to the Tian Shu organization and, like the Xiao Yun Temple, has a protective umbrella.

However, upon closer examination, it becomes clear that the protective umbrellas for these two are completely different.

Within the Tian Shu organization, the Hundred Immortals Chamber of Commerce is particularly close to the Immortal Sect [Undying Forest], and is one of the money bags personally supported by the Immortal Sect's Undying Forest.

Coincidentally, the Undying Forest and Tianya Mountain don't get along very well.

While the nine major immortal sects appear united on the surface, some of them have experienced friction and conflict due to their long-standing entanglement of interests. However, due to the need to maintain external stability and long-term interests, the nine major immortal sects have not truly broken ties.

The conflicts of interest involved are deep and complex, no less than the open and covert struggles between top dynasties.

However, the fact that the immortal sects don't openly break ties doesn't mean that their affiliated forces and subordinate cultivators won't cause trouble.

Just like proxy wars in the history of Earth's warfare, superpowers do not easily intervene, and the struggles and killings between their subordinates can, to a certain extent, represent their attitude and test the waters.

Clearly, Tianya Mountain deliberately released this news, which is already a tacit approval for the young sect leader to take action against the Hundred Immortals Chamber of Commerce. However, this matter should be done carefully and not too hastily.

Xiao Linlin had precisely grasped this point, which is why she decided to resort to force.

As for the methods of cover-up... Xiao Linlin didn't intend to let Xiaoyun Temple off the hook either, given its own competitors: "I remember, last week the Ruthless Blade Alliance sent people to visit us and reprimand us for our indiscriminate killing, which affected the cultivation atmosphere of this area, right?"

Yes, that's true.

Huang Yi nodded: "The Ruthless Blade Alliance is a medium-sized sect with tens of thousands of people, including three Nascent Soul cultivators. We cannot easily take them down unless Su Shen and the old man personally intervene."

"Hmm, did you finish collecting the hair, fingerprints, and basic techniques of the Ruthless Blade Alliance that I asked you to do?"

"They've all been collected."

"Go to the warehouse and get a few sets of the Ruthless Blade Alliance disciple robes. Just use them to guide the killing line. Try to be as meticulous as possible."

Xiao Linlin sat on the desk in the main hall, offering a reminder without looking up, and then continued to work on the mountain of sect affairs jade slips.

Since Xiaoyun Temple got on the right track, this main hall has become Xiao Linlin's office. She is like a little Zhuge Liang, personally handling everything and quickly reviewing and processing all kinds of internal and external affairs to ensure that Xiaoyun Temple moves steadily and quickly.

"this..."

Huang Yi hesitated, and Xiao Linlin looked up at him with a smile: "Brother Huang Yi, can't you even do such a small thing?"

"Of course not, I can do it."

Huang Yi nodded. Survivors who could reach the B-level zone were all bloodthirsty killers, not innocent victims. They were absolutely adept at framing and slander.

"Then why aren't you going? Are you going to wait for the Hundred Immortals Merchant Guild to run away right under our noses?"

"Okay, I'll go right away."

Huang Yi agreed and turned to leave.

His earlier hesitation stemmed from his astonishment at Xiao Linlin's decisiveness and ruthlessness. He wanted to say: "Little sister, we're still young. There's no need for us to be more cunning and domineering than adults."

But then he thought about it again and realized that apart from Su Lin, no one else had the right to lecture Xiao Linlin.

Even her grandmaster rarely reprimanded Xiao Linlin, mostly showing her respect and indulgence.

This little girl... is far from the naive girl she appears to be; beneath her innocent and beautiful face lies a remarkably mature heart.

As Huang Yi walked out of the main hall, he couldn't help but turn back and take another deep look inside.

He wasn't amazed by Xiao Linlin's nonchalant approach to the scheme of diverting blame, but rather by her extensive knowledge, as if she understood and knew everything.

At this moment, Huang Yi felt a deep sense of awe: "There really are geniuses in this world who are born with knowledge."
