Seeing these sycophantic people interrupting so quickly, Qu Jinshang almost cried.

In the brief moment he was distracted, well, the Qu family fell to the bottom again: "Our Qu family swears to live and die with the Dan Sect!"

"Pah! You're the one who's dead! Your whole family is dead! If you can't speak properly, shut up! Nobody thinks you're mute!" Xi Que immediately exploded.

Huang Daohong, Jun Luoying, and other representatives all looked at Qu Jinshang with eyes full of concern for the mentally challenged.

Qu Jinshang felt a burning sensation on his face, as if he had been slapped a hundred or eighty times.

He was furious and wanted to scold Xi Que, but when he saw Ji Fengyao's obviously protective and warning look, he didn't dare to utter a word.

Cultivators can abstain from grains and other foods, but they still need to take a fasting pill every three to five months!

The only product that Danzong did not ban from sale during the Tianshan Grand Celebration was the Abstinence Pill.

Therefore, it is no exaggeration to say that the Pill Sect is the provider of sustenance for the entire Pill Spirit Continent. He dared not offend them and could only force a smile.

After asking around, it turned out that these people had no other way to screen and identify demons except by using energy stones and spiritual energy.

Ji Fengyao then briefly revealed that she was attempting to break through to the Pill Saint realm, and told them to return to Tongcheng to rest first.

“Junior Nephew Yun Yao, are you really planning to attempt to become a Pill Saint?” Jiang Daili cautiously advised with concern, “Even if that demon Jiu Yue infiltrates the Pill Sect, we Pill Masters all have spiritual fire protecting us, so he can’t cause too much trouble.”

Moreover, although there are many doubts about the Yun family's affairs, it is not up to us, the Dan Sect, who have always been neutral, to take the lead in this matter.

Why take such a big risk and rush things?

If anything were to happen to you, how could the four of us face your deceased master?

Have you considered the future of our Dan Sect?

Ji Fengyao felt a warmth in her heart upon hearing this, and she put away her nonchalant expression, her smile becoming gentle: "Senior Uncle, I understand what you've said, and I won't joke with my own life."

There are some things that you and the other three elders don't know right now, and it's not convenient for me to tell you them either.

But I believe that before long, you will all understand and comprehend me.

Jiang Dailu thought back to how Mo Linxian's personality was like that in the past; he never disappointed people when it came to truly important matters.

Throughout the entire process, Mo Linxian also protected the Dan Sect very well.

Yun Yao now is just like Mo Linxian back then, keeping everything to herself.

But anything she did that was even remotely related to the Pill Sect was something that would benefit the Pill Sect.

With a long sigh, Jiang Daili gave Ji Fengyao a deep look and said, "Since you've made up your mind, then so be it!"

However, Junior Sister Yun Yao, your senior master hopes you will remember that you are the acting sect leader of the Dan Sect, and also the future sect leader of the Dan Sect.

You represent the Dan Sect, and everyone in the Dan Sect is your helper, not a burden.

You can rely on the Dan Sect, just as the Dan Sect can rely on you; our relationship is mutual.

"Master Uncle, don't worry, I know," Ji Fengyao's smile grew even warmer.

"Tsk, you old man, you were the one who spoke the harshest when we first arrived, but now you're the one whose words are becoming more and more pleasant to hear. You've made great progress!" Xi Que couldn't help but tease Jiang Daili with a grin. She had quite a good understanding of his stubborn temper, which was cold on the outside but warm on the inside.

Jiang Daili, however, couldn't bring himself to argue with a little girl. He pretended to be serious, stood up, flicked his sleeves, and turned to leave.
