Inside the Lingxiao Sect, the residence of the Grand Elder was already surrounded by a group of people, including the sect leader, the elders, and the core members.
Everyone's face was extremely grim. They looked at the Grand Elder sitting in the middle of the group, their eyes filled with reluctance.
Although the Lingxiao Sect is an extremely powerful sect with five Nascent Soul stage cultivators, it only has one Deity Transformation stage cultivator.
This Nascent Soul stage cultivator is the Lingxiao Sect's greatest asset.
Now that their reliance is about to disappear, how can they not be heartbroken?
Without Nascent Soul stage cultivators, the Lingxiao Sect is no longer the top sect, and it doesn't even know when it will be attacked and retaliated against by hostile forces.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were filled with grief.
The elder sitting in the middle had a pale, ashen face and dry, parched skin. This clearly indicated that his lifespan was nearing its end.
"Everyone, don't be sad. Life and death are predestined. I have lived in this world for over two thousand years. That's far longer than the average cultivator. Now, I am content."
As he spoke, the Grand Elder was already making his final arrangements. He wrote down all the insights he had gained throughout his life and presented them to the Sect Master.
The core disciples behind them had already started sobbing.
Having resolved his concerns, the Grand Elder said to the crowd, "You may all leave now."
He wanted to pass away alone, rather than have his death witnessed by those close to him.
The crowd slowly withdrew, but just as everyone had left and the Grand Elder was preparing to pass away, Wang Qi's master suddenly rushed in.
The Grand Elder smiled upon seeing him. "Have you already given the cultivation technique to Wang Qi? You must teach him to cultivate diligently. He is exceptionally talented, but also very arrogant. You must remind him that there are always people more powerful than you..."
Before the Grand Elder could finish speaking, his master quickly took out several Qi-Nourishing Pills and handed them to him, saying, "Grand Elder, take a look at these. Can they save you?"
The Grand Elder looked at the few Qi-Nourishing Pills and thought his junior disciple had gone mad with desperation to save him. These were just Qi-Nourishing Pills, the most ordinary kind of pills. How could they possibly save him?
He reluctantly accepted the Peiyuan Pill from his junior apprentice, but his eyes widened suddenly the moment his fingers touched it.
His previously cloudy eyes instantly became bright and alert.
He actually felt a surge of vitality emanating from the Peiyuan Pill.
Where did this come from?
"I found it on my disciple Wang Qi's desk. I just contacted him, and he said a friend gave it to him, saying it might be useful, so he gave it to me. Elder, please try it!"
The Grand Elder nodded and quickly swallowed the Qi-Nourishing Pill.
In an instant, he felt life coursing through his body. It was like throwing a person who was about to dry up from lack of water directly into a clear spring.
The elder's heart began to pound, and then, at an astonishing speed visible to the naked eye, his skin instantly became plump, and his complexion quickly turned rosy.
The elder opened his eyes in disbelief, feeling that his lifespan had increased by at least one year.
Seeing him like this, his master's breathing became rapid, and he cautiously asked, "Was it effective?"
The Grand Elder nodded excitedly at him. The Master quickly gave the Grand Elder the other pills and told him to take them.
One Qi-Nourishing Pill increases lifespan by one year; four pills would increase it by four years. The Grand Elder simply couldn't imagine how many more years he could gain if he had more of these pills.
He immediately grabbed his master's arm and said to him:
"Quickly, go and ask Wang Qi who gave him these Qi-cultivating pills?"
After contacting Wang Qi, the master immediately told the Grand Elder: It was given to him by a young female cultivator named Bai Ying from the Huayang Sect.
"Let's go find that young friend right away."

At that moment, Bai Ying was striking Fu Ziyi, the chief disciple of the Lingxiao Sect, with a powerful palm strike.
Fu Ziyi was at the Golden Core stage, and his cultivation was far superior to Bai Ying's. Logically speaking, defeating a cultivator like Bai Ying should be as easy as crushing an ant.
However, he was completely overwhelmed by Bai Ying. Even though he brought out his most powerful natal magic weapon, he was still blasted away by Bai Ying with a single palm strike.
Fu Ziyi could hardly believe it. He covered his chest with his hand and gritted his teeth, saying:
"You do have some skills, but you're just an ant. I'll show you that an ant can't compete with the sun and moon!"
Fu Ziyi popped a pill into his mouth that could instantly double his cultivation level. He angrily threw the magic weapon at Bai Ying.
But with a loud "bang," before he could even see what had happened, he was already kneeling on the ground.
Fu Ziyi suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, feeling as if his whole body was about to split open.
He was utterly horrified. As the chief disciple of the Lingxiao Sect, he had been defeated before, but being defeated by a cultivator with such low cultivation level was something that had never happened before.
Not to mention he didn't even see clearly what happened; he didn't even know how he got injured!
This guy is really too weird.
Bai Ying's sword was pointed directly at him: "Didn't you say you were going to kill me? Today we'll see who kills whom."
Fu Ziyi struggled to stand up. He had no intention of continuing the fight and only wanted to go back to find his master, the head of the Lingxiao Sect, to severely punish Bai Ying.
He came to ask for the Purple Jade Ganoderma for the Grand Elder, but this bastard not only refused to give it to him, but also dared to injure him.
She's dead!
Just as Fu Ziyi was about to utter some harsh words and go back, he suddenly felt a powerful pressure coming from above.
He looked up and saw that his sect leader, the Grand Elder, and several other elders had all arrived.
Fu Ziyi glanced at Bai Ying, and a sinister smile instantly appeared on his lips.
Isn't this bastard supposed to be powerful? Can she even beat these people?
The sect leader of Huayang Sect, having received a notification from Lingxiao Sect, has also arrived. Now, the most powerful figures from both sects are gathered together. Many cultivators from the surrounding area have also come to watch the spectacle.
A large group of people stood around.
Seeing everyone fly down from the sky to the ground, Fu Ziyi quickly got up and bowed to them. After bowing, he immediately said, "Sect Master, I came here to find the Purple Jade Spirit Mushroom for the Grand Elder. Who knew that Bai Ying not only refused to hand over the Purple Jade Spirit Mushroom, but also injured me."
This bastard is utterly wicked! She attempted to embezzle the Purple Jade Ganoderma, completely disregarding the friendship between sects, and tried to single-handedly incite conflict between the two major sects. I beg the sect leader to punish her, and I also urge the Huayang Sect not to protect her, but to expel her from the sect!
