With enough spirit stones added, the spirit boat ran much faster than when powered by artificial spiritual energy, and soon, guided by the small mirror, it arrived at the Tiangang Gate.
Fang Ruotang and her group's spirit boat stopped at the foot of Tiangang Sect's mountain.
As soon as their spirit boat appeared near the Tiangang Gate, disciples of the Tiangang Gate began to keep a close watch on their movements. As soon as they disembarked from the spirit boat, disciples guarding the mountain gate immediately surrounded them.
Who is it?
"Qin Bao'er, a disciple of the Tianyi Sect, has important business to discuss with the Sect Master of the Tiangang Sect."
"Tianyi Sect?"
The sect's reputation has not yet been established. Even though the sect leader and elders of the Tiangang Sect saw Fang Ruotang's appearance in the last message from the Supreme Elder, they still do not know her identity.
Therefore, the kill order only contained Fang Ruotang's appearance; no one knew anything about her background.
"Qin Bao'er, are you the young patriarch of the Qin family?"
The Qin family is one of the eight great families, and Qin Bao'er is the family's favored heir, achieving fame at a young age.
Those who follow these matters have all heard of her.
"Yes, but I have already joined the Tianyi Sect and am now the third disciple under the sect master."
Qin Bao'er solemnly introduced her identity.
The gatekeeper was quite respectful to the Qin family, and sent the message up the mountain without asking any further questions.
Before long, they were allowed to climb the mountain.
In order to meet the leader of the Tiangang Sect, Fang Ruotang remained silent throughout the meeting and used the props provided by the small mirror to conceal her true appearance.
Therefore, the group, riding on their flying swords, arrived smoothly at the main hall of the Tiangang Sect and met the sect leader who was waiting for them.
"Young Master Qin, what brings you to our Tiangang Sect?" The sect leader of the Tiangang Sect was very polite.
There are interactions between various sects.
The leader of the Tiangang Sect also knew the patriarch of the Qin family.
This was the first time I had met the young patriarch of the Qin family, and I heard from his disciples that he had joined a small, unfamiliar sect.
"I have received news that your Tiangang Sect is wanted by someone, and that is why I have come to visit you."
The originally cheerful faces of the Tiangang Sect members immediately changed color.
"Young friend, do you know the inside story?"
Qin Bao'er took out the image-recording stone and gave it to the Tiangang Sect Master.
"The sect leader will understand once he takes a look."
The sect leader of the Tiangang Sect took the recording stone and immediately infused it with spiritual power.
Even after watching it again, Fang Ruotang and her group still felt physically uncomfortable.
The sect leader of the Tiangang Sect's expression changed drastically, and he loudly questioned, "Young friend, where did you get this recording stone? Have you shown it to anyone else?"
Qin Bao'er calmly said, "If you want to kill me to silence me, I'm afraid you won't be able to. The person you are chasing is the sect leader of my Tianyi Sect. I am here on the orders of my master. If I die here, my Tianyi Sect and the Qin family will surely make this matter known throughout the entire Yun Shen Continent. At that time, your Tiangang Sect can expect to be wiped out!"
The leader of the Tiangang Sect was taken aback for a moment, then gave a wry smile, "Young friend, there's no need to be so wary, it's not necessary."
Fang Ruotang kept her eyes fixed on the leader of the Tiangang Sect.
Since coming into contact with spiritual energy, Fang Ruotang has realized that she is very sensitive to these things.
She had been keeping a close eye on him, fearing that the sect leader of the Tiangang Sect might try to silence him. If he gathered spiritual energy, she could save Qin Bao'er immediately.
But from beginning to end, he truly had no intention of gathering spiritual energy to kill Qin Bao'er and silence her.
"It was my fault for being so disrespectful to the sect leader. I hope the sect leader will forgive me. My cultivation is low, and the sect leader could take my life with a single thought. I have no choice but to make this clear beforehand."
The sect leader of Tiangang Sect had little interest in talking to Qin Bao'er. He solemnly replied, "I am aware of this matter, and the arrest warrant issued against your master will be withdrawn."
"There are urgent matters to attend to inside, so please leave without further ado!"
Seeing the way the leader of the Tiangang Sect was, Fang Ruotang had a pretty good impression of him; at least in her eyes, he was a rare normal person.
They didn't start by shouting for war and killing.
Qin Bao'er, whom she had taken in, also possessed characteristics of this continent when they first met.
“Master Wei Ren used a secret method to cover up the deaths of disciples from several other sects. Now that Master Wei Ren is dead, I believe the sects behind those disciples have also received the news. Even if we keep quiet about this matter, they will eventually trace it back to you.”
The sect leader glanced at the person who spoke, whose face was somewhat obscured, and knew that this person was using a magical artifact to disguise his appearance and was not showing his true face.
The sect leader didn't care about that, and forced a smile, saying, "Thank you for reminding me, young friend. I already know."
That's because I understand this principle.
The Supreme Elder has killed too many people to hide.
Even if he kills everyone in front of him, it will only add to the karma and won't change the outcome.
If killing these people could ensure the safety of the Tiangang Sect, he wouldn't hesitate to act. But when these people no longer affect the overall situation, there's no point in him taking action.
After leaving the Tiangang Gate, we boarded the spirit boat.
Fang Ruotang removed the magical artifact that concealed her face and looked at Gu Yanjin and the other six people who hadn't said anything.
"Didn't you say you wanted to take this opportunity to recruit talented disciples from the Tiangang Sect into our Tianyi Sect?"
"Silly, even if you want to think about it, it can't be now." Cui Shixu chuckled softly, looking at Fang Ruotang with doting eyes.
Ye Wuxia chimed in, "If we say it now, they won't be grateful. They might even become our enemies. After all, when the sect is on the verge of collapse, anyone with a backbone will stand with the sect through thick and thin. Those who desert when the sect faces trouble are not the kind of people our sect wants."
Fang Ruotang nodded in agreement.
She also dislikes being betrayed.
“We’ll handle this, you don’t need to worry about it!” Gu Yanjin said, and the other five all agreed.
Fang Ruotang's brain isn't suited to thinking about such complicated things.
"Alright! If you have any problems, contact Little Mirror yourselves. He's more useful than anything else."
"It's my fault for not being able to be by your side like Little Mirror was before, but that won't be the case anymore. I can still stay by your side and help you solve your problems. But I'm not a spirit after all, and I don't have Little Mirror's abilities. Little Six, you won't think I'm useless, will you?" Ye Wuxia's handsome face showed a faint sorrow.
Fang Ruotang immediately snuggled up to Ye Wuxia like a sweet little bun and said coquettishly, "How could that be! Wuxia, you're already amazing! Look at people your age who have reached such high positions, how many can do that?"
"Really? Don't you think I'm useless? Especially after coming to the Cloud Deep Continent, I don't know anything, I feel like a piece of trash." Ye Wuxia looked dejected, her once dazzling appearance now shrouded in a layer of dust.
"How could you think like that? Have you forgotten that we are already married in Dayong? There is no rule that says a man must protect a woman. We are a couple, and taking care of each other is the normal way for us to get along."
