Without a sense of belonging, why would the main lineage trust me?
After all, we haven't just surrendered yet. The most important thing is that we were enemies before. How could they improve our treatment if they don't trust us?
If we don't do anything good, why would people like us?
If they don't like us, how can they give us extra rewards?
It's good to be able to get a guaranteed minimum!
But then again, who would only think about the guaranteed minimum if they can get more?
These words...
Lu Ming said nothing.
However, the elders, at this moment, understood it thoroughly on their own.
More insightful than anyone else!
They looked at each other and saw the shrewdness in each other's eyes.
But no one said anything.
Hmm~~~
You don't say it, right?
If you don't say anything, I won't say anything either.
Anyway, as long as we understand it in our hearts, it's OK.
So~
A rather strange contest began.
Compare who can appease their own lineage first, and then compare whose lineage has a stronger sense of identity with the main lineage...
When it comes to a sense of identity, in fact, it should be extremely difficult to improve it.
Especially when most of the disciples have never even been to the Lanyue Sect or the main branch.
But...
The problem is that the main vein gave too much and the pills were too fragrant.
Although it may not make them instantly identify with it, it can at least instantly soothe their unpleasant emotions.
I don't hate it, and with my elders constantly working hard to find ways to improve it, this sense of identity... really came up in an instant.
Not to mention how high or how great it is.
But after all, there was a little bit of it.
Moreover, it is slowly growing over time.
The growth rate is not fast, but it is stable.
Especially when the second month's allowance is paid on time...
This sense of identity suddenly came as a surge.
Especially among disciples.
"Actually." Su Lie, the eldest senior brother of the outer sect, sighed, "I think it's not bad for us to be affiliated with the Lanyue Sect. Although the treatment is a little worse than that of the main sect, it is still a world of difference compared to before."
"Not really, right?"
Someone retorted: "Didn't Elder Lu also refine pills for us before?"
"That's just us!"
Su Lie shook his head: "It's limited to our outer sect. The brothers and sisters in the inner sect don't have it, right?"
"Besides, there is only one Elder Lu. How much can he refine? Even if he works himself to death, he can't possibly provide for the entire sect alone! You don't know how exhausted Elder Lu was when I went to ask to see him."
"Now, the alchemy lineage is responsible for the supply of elixirs and they are distributed on time. Elder Lu doesn't have to work so hard anymore. Isn't this a good thing?"
At this time, a petty-minded junior sister said: "That is true, but then again, originally only our outer sect had elixirs. If we are given some time, we may be able to surpass the inner sect brothers and sisters."
"But now everyone has it, and the inner sect has more and better elixirs. Isn't it true that we will never get ahead?"
"Isn't this... a bad thing?"
"I feel that joining the Lanyue Sect is worse than before."
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at her.
Eyes...
It's like looking at an idiot.
Su Lie's face darkened instantly, and he stepped forward and waved his hand.
Bang!
With a fierce fight, he knocked the junior sister to the ground, and her face was swollen. At the same time, Su Lie shouted angrily: "Asshole!"
"Can't you be more considerate of Elder Lu... who is now the Chief Deacon?!"
"You want to tire him to death?!"
"As for the fact that the treatment of the inner sect disciples is better is a bad thing... it is nonsense. The inner sect disciples have better talents, stronger willpower, and stronger strength. Why can't they eat the elixir?"
"In which sect are inner disciples treated worse than outer disciples?"
"It's simply the opposite of Tian Gang!"
"Moreover, instead of complaining about yourself and blaming others here, why don't you practice hard, become stronger, and strive to enter the inner gate as soon as possible?"
"As long as you enter the inner gate, you will be able to enjoy better treatment and get more resources. By then, will you still think that there is nothing wrong with the inner gate having more resources than the outer gate?"
"No, you certainly won't!"
"If that day really comes, you will only curse in your heart, cursing the mere outer sect disciples or even menial disciples for having the right to enjoy such excellent resources."
"We shouldn't give it to them. We should save it all and give it to you inner sect, right?"
Su Lie's words were very impolite, sharp as knives, and aggressive.
The sister's expression changed again and again, but in the end, she still said stubbornly: "Everyone can speak the truth, but... but putting aside the facts, isn't what I said wrong?"
Everyone: “…”
Oh, yes, yes!
You are right, everything you said is right.
God damn, let's put the facts aside.
"This selfish idiot... is hopeless." A disciple who was usually on good terms with Su Lie shook his head and sighed, "Give up."
"I think it's best to expel this kind of thing from the sect."
"~"
"yes."
Su Lie's eyes lit up: "Let's go tell the deacons and elders that this bastard is simply rebelling against Tian Gang. He will only be a disaster if he stays here. No matter how many resources we waste, he will be an ungrateful wolf that we can never tame."
"No!!"
The female disciple finally got scared and screamed, "No, you can't do this."
"I am also a disciple of the Lanyue Sect. I am eligible to receive the monthly allowance. I..."
"Whether you are qualified or not is not up to you, humph!"
“···”
Su Lie's heart was as hard as iron, and he wouldn't listen to her.
He immediately went to the outer sect deacon elder to report the matter.
This outer sect elder was just worrying about having no place to show his presence or add a few entries to his resume, so when he heard about this, his eyes lit up immediately.
Isn't this a coincidence?!
Eliminate this black sheep for Lanyue Sect...
I can't say it's a great achievement, but at least it's some achievement, right?
By then, wouldn't I be able to get more pills? !
He said quickly: "Su Lie, you have done a great job. Now that our Lanyue Sect has finally settled down and has such good resources, it is a great time for rapid development."
"This kind of black sheep will only hinder the group if it stays, and it should be eliminated!"
"Well, I'll give you a task."
"After you go back, keep silent for the time being and observe quietly to see how many black sheep there are. Once you have figured it out, I will eliminate them all!"
"So as not to alert the enemy and make them hide."
"this···"
Su Lie hesitated slightly: "Okay, but we have already said that we will come to complain. If nothing happens when we go back, is this... reasonable?"
"Why is it unreasonable? You go back and say that I, the deacon, have no business dealing with this matter, and that we are all disciples of the Lanyue Sect and have the right to freedom of speech. At the same time, you have to pretend to be very unhappy and angry."
"Only then will those people have the courage to expose themselves..."
"Yeah, that makes sense!" Su Lie understood: "Let's do it now."
“···”
······
Su Lie looks big and strong.
In fact, it is rough but also detailed.
After some operation...
He actually found thousands of outer disciples who had evil intentions and were black sheep.
Half a month later.
The outer sect steward attacked aggressively, expelled them from the sect, destroyed all their cultivation, and threw them out of the sect.
These disciples burst into tears instantly.
What to do...
It's too late to regret!
Afterwards, the outer sect steward was not idle either, and immediately ran to report to Lu Ming. After he finished speaking, he did not forget to add: "Such a black sheep must not be allowed to stay in our Lanyue Sect!"
"But... ahem, this is just my personal behavior. I don't know what the main vein and the sect master think."
"But don't worry, Chief Deacon. This matter is a one-person job. You just need to report it truthfully. If the sect master has any punishment, it will be me alone."
"I will never implicate you, Chief Deacon, or any of the elders!"
What he said was righteous and stern.
He was so loyal and devoted to serving the sect.
Lu Ming...
But I wanted to laugh when I heard it.
This suddenly reminded him of a sentence: "Dunking and breaking the basket? Full compensation is fine, but the whole school must be informed~!"
"However, this outer sect deacon is also a smart man."
"I want to use this method to attract the attention of the main vein, and take the opportunity to make merit and increase my presence."
"I···"
"How about giving you this chance?"
The intention of this outer sect deacon was too obvious.
Isn't it because he wants me to tell Lin Fan that he is emphasizing this? What kind of punishment? Only a patriarch with a hole in his brain would punish his own steward for such a thing.
"rest assured!"
Lu Ming responded: "I will inform the main vein about this matter."
Not only do I have to notify you, I also have to give you a reward.
You want to make achievements and get more benefits, and I want to use you as an example and publicize it.
Hey!
"It's troublesome."
The outer sect deacon went there happily.
Then···
The monthly payment period is next month.
Lu Ming directly and publicly stated that this outer sect deacon had made great contributions and was rewarded by the master, with his monthly salary doubled!
"boom!"
In just a moment, everyone was furious.
Especially the elders and deacons, their eyes were red.
The look he gave this outer sect deacon was filled with depression.
Damn it!
You got a way but you don't tell me?
Are you still one of us?!
no!
I must ask him later how he achieved this achievement. I have to learn from him!
They kept muttering this in their hearts.
After all, this person is the first person in the Haoyue lineage to "achieve merit", and the reward is so reliable, how can he not be tempted? !
Just do it!
soon.
The outer sect deacon was "surrounded".
If you don't tell me, I won't let you leave!
This made him look confused and helpless before he had time to get excited for long.
at last···
I can only tell the whole story.
"Hurrah!!!"
The other outer sect deacons and elders were furious: "Why didn't you tell us about this good news? We are also outer sect deacons and elders!"
"You've driven them all out, how can we achieve merit?"
"You old man, you are eating alone! Aren't you afraid of getting rotten in the ass?"
Different from the anger of the outer sect deacons and elders.
The inner sect elder's eyes were shining at this moment.
Yes~!
Inner door...
Aren’t there black sheep in the group?
Is it difficult to get this credit?
"Well, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first!"
In just a moment, more than a dozen inner sect elders simultaneously expressed that they would leave first. Upon hearing this, they looked at each other, and each of them saw the vigilance and anger in the other's eyes.
Damn, these guys thought of it too.
No, I have to go quickly!
They turned into streams of light, running faster than each other.
·······
Next month.
More than ten elders from the Haoyue lineage received rewards!
It is not just about eliminating the bad apples and disciples with ulterior motives.
Some even took out their own treasured secrets to contribute to the sect...
There are many different ways to make meritorious contributions.
And the main vein is also very respectful.
As long as you have made a contribution, no matter how big or small it is, you will be rewarded.
As a result, the enthusiasm of the elders was instantly boosted.
The sense of identity also rises accordingly...
······
Jiuxiao Fairy Mountain.
A space crack quietly appeared.
Ji Haoyue broke through the void and appeared, his eyes full of coldness.
At the moment, he is in a very bad condition, but...
I survived after all.
After being trapped in that formation that seemed to be isolated from a small world, I fought with the people from the Shadow Demon Palace for nearly three months. Finally, I held on to the end and survived!
Never hunted!
Moreover, all the elders of the Shadow Demon Palace were killed by him, leaving only the Palace Master and three supreme elders to flee in a panic.
Afterwards, it took some effort to finally escape from that small world.
Breathing in the fresh air, Ji Haoyue, who had almost exhausted all his resources and trump cards, remained silent.
He had thought about encountering this kind of thing.
But he didn't expect that the Shadow Palace was so well prepared. They were really out to take his life!
If he wasn't strong enough and had enough trump cards, there would be absolutely no way for him to survive.
But even though he was prepared, he almost died.
Even the storage bag exploded.
All the treasures he carried with him, and even his own magical weapon, were destroyed!
"call···"
He shook his head fiercely, discarded all distracting thoughts, and whispered, "There is no time to delay."
"My condition is too bad now. I must recover and break through as soon as possible, and then return to Haoyue Sect. Otherwise... something terrible will definitely happen!"
Ji Haoyue felt nervous.
I always feel very uneasy.
Especially...these people from the Shadow Demon Palace, who came to surround and kill me in such a way, how could they not know that I am not in the Haoyue Sect now?
The devil cultivators are those who will do anything to achieve their goals.
If they could contact some people to deal with Haoyue Sect...
"!"
Thinking of this, his heart beat faster.
"No, you can't scare yourself."
"It's okay. The Haoyue Sect has existed for so many years and has a deep foundation. How could it be so easy to deal with?"
"Don't think too much. Find a place to recover and break through immediately!"
“···”
He completely put aside all distractions and carefully found a relatively safe place to heal his wounds.
After spending several days, he finally recovered. Afterwards, he did not dare to rest for even a moment and immediately went out to look for immortal energy to prepare for a breakthrough...
I don’t know if it was because of the bad luck that he had suffered from being besieged for several months and almost being killed, or if it was Ji Haoyue’s good fortune that had come.
Everything went smoothly after that.
It was so smooth that Ji Haoyue couldn't believe it and even felt panicked!
The fairy spirit was found smoothly without any accidents.
I was originally very cautious, fearing that something might go wrong during the breakthrough process and that I would get hurt, but unexpectedly, it went extremely smoothly and there were no problems at all.
It seems to happen naturally and smoothly.
It is even as simple and natural as eating and drinking.
Ji Haoyue···
Successful breakthrough.
The bottleneck that I thought would hold me back for a long time didn't exist at all.
When I absorbed the first ray of immortal energy into my body, I thought it would be very dangerous.
result···
He didn't even feel much as he combined the immortal energy with the energy in his body and successfully transformed it into his first ray of immortal energy.
It went so smoothly!
After everything went smoothly and he succeeded, when Ji Haoyue opened his eyes, his face and eyes were filled with confusion.
in the end···
What happened?!
He was completely confused and had no idea what was going on.
Feel and discern carefully...
"oh!"
“So I made a breakthrough.”
"Now, it's already the ninth level?"
"Could it be that the inner demon broke out and entered the inner demon illusion? Otherwise, how could it be so smooth?"
“···”
This is fucking...
It went so smoothly that I couldn’t believe it!
It took a while before I finally accepted it and calmed down, saying to myself, "Don't panic, don't panic!"
"This is a good thing, a very good thing!"
"This is God's mercy on me and my Haoyue Sect!"
"It's my destiny to break through so smoothly."
"Next, we need to consolidate our cultivation and improve it as much as possible. We will improve it to whatever level we can reach, and then rush back to Haoyue Sect to take charge."
"Then···"
"Clear the enemies and destroy the Shadow Demon Palace."
"Next, let's start by making the Haoyue Sect a top-notch sect."
"everything···"
“Nothing will go wrong!”
"With my current strength, I am very sure of this!"
He clenched his fist slowly.
The power that far exceeded his previous strength gave him more confidence.
The next half month.
Ji Haoyue was still surprisingly successful.
Whether it was searching for immortal energy or refining it for his own use, there were no problems. In the end, he had refined hundreds of immortal energies, and his cultivation had successfully broken through to the middle and late stages of the first level of the ninth realm.
At this point, Ji Haoyue finally felt a little overwhelmed.
“Have you reached your limit?”
"It's pretty good to be able to reach this level right after the breakthrough."
“It’s time…”
“It’s time to return!”
Ji Haoyue stood up, and his whole body suddenly crackled.
His aura was much more ethereal than before, and he seemed like a completely different person with ethereal air.
at the same time.
An unparalleled confidence spreads at this moment.
"The first-rate sect, Haoyue Sect, is right before our eyes!"
"besides···"
"Shadow Demon Palace, you... are finished!"
"Hahaha!"
At this moment, Ji Haoyue couldn't hold back any longer and laughed three times, then strode down the mountain.
As the saying goes, I laugh out loud and go out, how can I be considered a weed?
Self-confidence is overflowing at this moment!
Blind confidence?
What is blind?
I!
Ji Haoyue!
The ninth ascent to wonderland!
Although he has not yet become an immortal, he has already embarked on the path to immortality.
you···
Why do you want to fight with me?!
······
The journey down to the Nine Heavens Fairy Mountain was also exceptionally smooth.
Until the foot of the mountain, no unexpected incidents occurred, which made Ji Haoyue even more satisfied: "Sure enough, when the time comes, heaven and earth will work together. Now it seems..."
"The era that belongs to me, Ji Haoyue, has arrived!"
“Although I am not a peerless genius of the contemporary era, in the Golden Age, it is not just the young people who can make a difference. We old guys also have great potential.”
"And I..."
“It is bound to stir up trouble again.”
"My Haoyue Sect will also bravely scale new heights and enter a brand new era."
"The unbelievable success in this short period of time is proof of this."
“Hmph~!”
Ji Haoyue immediately tore through space and hurried on his way.
With his current strength, the distance of teleportation is naturally dozens of times farther than before.
However, the Xianwu Continent is still too large, and relying solely on teleportation is somewhat insufficient.
He planned a route that was most suitable for his current situation. He teleported, flew, and used the teleportation array at the same time, and finally returned to Haoyue Sect in the shortest time possible.
In the beginning...
He was still extremely nervous.
It was not until he returned to the vicinity of Haoyue Sect and scanned the area with his spiritual sense that he found that although there were some traces of a battle around Haoyue Sect, the situation was generally fine. Only then did he finally feel relieved.
"Sure enough, my guess was correct."
"The era that belongs to me and the Haoyue Sect has arrived!"
Ji Haoyue straightened his clothes and confirmed again and again that there was nothing wrong with his current condition before he smiled slightly and appeared in front of everyone.
His face was calm and he seemed to be so nonchalant.
only···
His eyes, which were unable to suppress the joy, still slightly betrayed his current mood.
Not far away...
Several inner disciples were practicing against each other.
Hehe, haha, quite an eye-catching performance.
Ji Haoyue just took a look and nodded continuously.
"Yeah, not bad, not bad!"
"Your spirit and energy are very good, and you have never brought shame to the reputation of our Haoyue Sect."
He laughed out loud, and at this moment, he could no longer hold back his laughter.
My mood has reached a very good level.
It's just amazing!
I have successfully broken through, and there is no problem for the Haoyue Sect. Moreover, the conditions of these disciples are also very good, much better than before, both in terms of strength and spirit.
Good news on all fronts.
How can I not be happy?
but···
He had barely finished speaking when the laughter started.
The two inner disciples on the stage suddenly changed their expressions.
"Don't dare to say anything."
"What is Haoyue Sect?"
"Who is so bold as to make things difficult for us? If our monthly salary is reduced next month, will you be held responsible?!"
The two men immediately stopped fighting and started accusing each other.
Ji Haoyue’s smile froze on his face: “(O_O)???!”
The two inner disciples also saw Ji Haoyue and were immediately shocked and their scalps went numb: "???!"
"old···"
"Old Sect Master?!"
The two looked at each other and were panicked for a moment.
He had no idea what to do, and even forgot to run away. Ji Haoyue caught him red-handed: "What the hell are you talking about?!"
"What is the Haoyue Sect?!"
At this moment, Ji Haoyue was really confused!
Besides being confused, I also felt very nervous for no apparent reason.
This is...
What is going on?
Why can't I understand what they are saying?
I was just talking about the Haoyue Sect, how come it became nonsense?
You're crazy!
I'm going back to my own Haoyue Sect, and you guys say I'm talking nonsense? The master of this sect is dumbfounded, okay, what the hell is this?
besides···
What the fuck is the old master called?
"Explain it clearly to this Sect Master!!!"
The smile on Ji Haoyue's face disappeared instantly, leaving only anger: "What happened during the time when this sect master was away?"
"What did you mean by what you just said?!"
"this···"
The two inner disciples were almost frightened. Looking at the angry Ji Haoyue, how could they dare to say anything more?
In case I'm wrong...
Wouldn't he kill him?!
“We don’t know about this either.”
"Yes, old... old master, we are just ordinary inner disciples, how could we possibly know so much? We just say what the higher-ups say."
"That's right, old master. If you want to know more, you should go find the elders."
"Yes, yes, the elders must know this very well."
Seeing that the two of them obviously knew something but were evasive and didn't dare to speak, Ji Haoyue was immediately furious.
“You…you guys!”
"Good, very good, it's really good!"
"roll!"
boom!
A low shout.
The two disciples were suddenly struck by lightning, blood gushed out of their seven orifices, and their breath became weak.
He was already seriously injured.
but···
The two did not dare to delay for even a second and immediately supported each other and ran away.
As for opening...
I dare not say even a word.
Damn, I almost died just now!!!
······
Ji Haoyue withdrew his gaze from the two people, but did not immediately look for the elders. Instead, he walked through the interior of the Haoyue Sect, watching...
Soon, he discovered a fact that shocked and angered him.
The mental outlook of the disciples of Haoyue Sect has undergone a drastic change!
Everything became positive!
The strength has also obviously risen to a small level.
Logically speaking, this is a good thing and you should be happy.
But this is not normal!
And it is obviously abnormal.
How is it possible that such earth-shaking changes could have taken place in the Haoyue Sect within such a short period of time?
There is a problem!
There's definitely a big fucking problem!
even···
He swept his spiritual sense and found that many elders had made breakthroughs!
Although it is just a small realm, or even just a small step, the number is astonishing!
It's a complete breakthrough.
Okay!
I can understand the disciples’ breakthroughs, after all, their realms are low, but you old guys have also made breakthroughs?!
this···
What went wrong?!
Ji Haoyue could no longer hold back, and appeared in the meeting room in a flash. At the same time, he swept his spiritual sense and sent a message to all the elders: "Come to the meeting room to see this sect master!"
······
Come to the consciousness hall to see this master!
All the elders, including Lu Ming, received Ji Haoyue’s telepathic message.
Lu Ming narrowed his eyes slightly: "This day has finally come."
"It seems that Ji Haoyue has successfully broken through."
"Whether we can defeat him and allow our Lanyue Sect to have its first ninth realm depends on us today."
"Also, it's time to verify whether my efforts during this period have been effective~"
“···”
He stood up and walked slowly to the meeting room.
······
Lu Ming...
A little nervous.
The other elders were even more worried.
After all, the things that have happened recently are not a question of whether they are glorious or not, but a question of whether they are acceptable.
Although they were forced to do so at the beginning and had no other choice.
But...
After joining the Lanyue Sect, especially in the past two months, this...
Almost everyone is madly trying to improve the recognition of the main vein, and trying every possible way to make merit, plus the elixir is really good...
Therefore, now, the elders all know one thing very clearly - they can no longer go back.
Haoyue Sect? There was no way back.
What's more, there is still an oath.
What else can I do?
"well."
Several elders gathered together, their faces bitter: "To be honest, I have been deliberately avoiding this topic during this period of time, and trying my best to restrain myself from thinking about it."
"But what is coming will eventually come."
"Old Sect Master, you are back after all, and it seems that you have successfully made a breakthrough."
"There will definitely be trouble." The others nodded, "I just don't know if we can get through it safely."
"This is inevitable, but I am a little undecided and don't know what to do. How do you think we should deal with it?"
"Well..."
"What do you think?"
“···”
Everyone looked at each other and said nothing.
But in fact...
But I already had an idea in my mind.
Even most of the elders did not communicate or discuss with each other in advance, but at this moment, they had more or less a tacit understanding in their hearts.
Or...
consensus.
It has come to this.
The rice has already been cooked.
The fiancée is someone else's...
What else can I do?
Besides, now, I still feel pretty good...
Cough cough cough.
choose?
There is no choice at all, I can only go down this path till the end!
As for how to face the old sect master, or how to deal with it if the old sect master gets angry...
Um···
Of course~~~
Let’s face it together.
They said no more and rushed to the meeting room.
······
Soon, everyone gathered.
Lu Ming thought about it and decided to sit in the main seat.
The elders saw it but kept silent. After all, they were used to it.
But Ji Haoyue frowned immediately: "Okay, okay, okay, no wonder those disciples call me the old sect master now... Elder Lu, can you explain it to this sect master?"
"Although you are one of the candidates for the clan leader, and this position will be yours sooner or later, you don't have to be so impatient, right?"
"Do you think this master is dead?"
"I don't dare."
Lu Ming looked innocent and sighed, "In fact, I have no idea about the position of sect leader. The reason I sit here and take this position is completely because I was forced to do so."
“I was forced to do this.”
"Forced?" Ji Haoyue was confused, his head buzzing: "Who forced you?"
"Who can force you, who will force you?!"
"joke."
"Could it be that the elders of my sect forced you to do so?"
Ji Haoyue was almost laughing out of anger.
He really has high hopes for Lu Ming, and he really wants Lu Ming to be the next sect leader, but the way you are playing it... is really a bit too much!
It's like the succession of the throne...
Yes, I do want to pass the throne to you, but as soon as I leave the house, you're going to make me the emperor emeritus... isn't that too much?
And he said he was forced!
The elder is like my concubine.
How could my concubine betray me and force you to become the clan leader?
It's a joke!
You think I'm a fool!
However.
Before Lu Ming could say anything in response to his question, he heard the Grand Elder Gu Qingyun say in a low voice, "Sect Master, this... this matter was indeed forced upon us elders."
Ji Haoyue was confused.
He suddenly turned around, with a puzzled look on his face: "(O_O)???!"
He was extremely surprised: "You... forced me?"
The second elder nodded: "Indeed, we forced him to do it."
"This matter... has nothing to do with the Archdeacon."
"The situation was critical at the time, and the sect couldn't be without a leader for a day. We had no other choice but to let the chief deacon temporarily take over the position of sect leader and lead our sect to resolve the danger of extinction."
"!"
"etc!"
Ji Haoyue's expression suddenly changed: "Danger of extermination of the clan?"
"what happened!"
"This matter..."
Lu Ming sighed, "It's a long story. It has to start from when you, the old sect master, left the Haoyue Sect and went to Jiuxiao Xianyue to seek a breakthrough."
“···”
While explaining, Lu Ming suddenly thought of a question.
The annual little disaster is today~
so···
It should be on Ji Haoyue?
If it is not handled properly, this will not be a "small disaster".
"Three sects are besieging us, and our sect is in danger."
"At that time, we couldn't contact you, old sect master, and your life tablet had cracks, so you couldn't protect yourself."
"We have no other options but to risk everything..."
The Great Elder took over the topic and said, "At this moment, we asked the Chief Deacon to take the position of Sect Master. The Chief Deacon refused in every possible way, but under our insistence, he had no choice but to agree."
"Then···"
“···”
Ji Haoyue was numb.
He scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "In that case, it is understandable."
"cough."
"land···"
"Master Lu, I was too impatient and wrongly blamed you. I'm sorry."
Ji Haoyue was really embarrassed at the moment, but he was more worried about the crisis, so he asked, "What happens next?"
"After Lu Ming became the sect leader, he successfully resolved the crisis?"
"It's not that simple."
Lu Ming sighed: "The elite troops of the three sects have all come out, and they have also brought a large number of independent cultivators. The number of eighth-level cultivators has exceeded 300, which is several times more than us."
"Even though I almost died from the backlash, I could only join forces with the elders to kill a few of them."
"Afterwards, he was forced to retreat into the formation and not come out."
"I wanted to hold on until you, the old master, returned..."
Lu Ming glanced at Ji Haoyue.
The latter suddenly felt even more embarrassed.
"I···"
"Well, I also encountered danger at the beginning. The people of the Shadow Demon Palace were well prepared. The palace master brought a lot of elite soldiers and used strange formations to surround and kill me. I could not protect myself..."
"I don't mean to blame the old sect master." Lu Ming sighed: "It's just..."
“I really had nowhere else to go.”
The Great Elder nodded and said, "We are indeed at our wits' end. The most frustrating thing is that there is still that damned Water Jumper causing troubles, repeatedly destroying the core of the sect protection formation, causing our sect protection formation to be constantly weakened."
“At that time, it was really precarious.”
The elders blinked.
They all looked at the Great Elder quietly.
this···
Is it the thief crying "stop thief"?
Should you eliminate your own suspicion first?
"Water jumper?!"
Ji Haoyue's expression changed, and then he suddenly realized: "That's right, if it weren't for Shui Tiaozi, how could the Shadow Demon Palace know my whereabouts so clearly..."
"And what happened next?!"
"How did you resolve the crisis afterwards?"
Thinking of that situation, Ji Haoyue felt nervous.
There are wolves lurking around and tigers watching us eagerly.
There are also water jumpers causing trouble inside...
Internal and external troubles!
If you are not careful, the clan will be destroyed and people will die.
"I'll tell you what happened next."
The second elder sighed and stood up: "Everyone has his own responsibility. Since I was the one who proposed the proposal, I should bear the responsibility."
"If the old sect master has any dissatisfaction or wants to take action, just come at me."
"you···"
Ji Haoyue's expression kept changing. Although he didn't know what exactly happened, this tone, these words... were obviously problematic!
He felt panic for no reason: "What did you do?"
"Nothing."
The second elder said calmly: "It's just to find a way out for Haoyue Sect."
"And it is..."
"The only way to survive."
"At that time, we had no other choice. Our sect could only choose to join and merge with the Lanyue Sect, become a part of it, and seek the protection of the Lanyue Sect to survive the disaster."
“???!”
Ji Haoyue was completely confused.
His eyes were wide open and his head was buzzing.
he···
I couldn't believe everything I heard and saw at the moment, and there was only one thought in my mind.
damn it···
I am really trapped in the illusion of my inner demon, right?
Otherwise, how could we hear such news?
"Old Sect Master, please don't be anxious."
The second elder sighed again and said, "I know this is hard to accept and outrageous, but given the situation at the time, it was indeed the only way to survive."
"Just listen to my analysis..."
He recounted his original analysis in detail and clearly.
Then he added: "Lin Fan also swore to give us enough sovereignty, dignity and power. Moreover, it was only after that that we learned that the people from the Lanyue Sect had already arrived."
"And it's not just the Lanyue Sect!"
"They called on their friends and brought more people with them than the three sects."
"But before that, they are not thinking of coming to help us or save us, but are preparing to take advantage of our misfortune and kill us while we are sick."
"If we had not merged into the Lanyue Sect by accident and became the Haoyue branch of the Lanyue Sect, they would have definitely taken action after the formation was broken."
"In other words, if we don't do this, our Haoyue Sect will definitely have no way to survive."
"you···"
"I···"
"this?!"
Ji Haoyue was numb. For a moment, his heart was in a mess and his mind was a mess.
"Wait, let me sort it out."
"so..."
"My Haoyue Sect is gone?!!"
Staring at everyone, Ji Haoyue was completely dumbfounded.
My head is buzzing.
I am Haoyue Sect...
What the hell is the big Haoyue Sect, but it disappeared just because I left for a few months???
It's not that simple.
Isn't it so outrageous?
"Besides, it's not the kind where the clan is exterminated by others, but..."
"Deserted to the enemy and became a branch of the Lanyue Sect???"
"this?!"
reason?!
What a bullshit reason.
No matter how good the reason is, it can't be like this!
How can I face my ancestors?
How can I face people in the future?
It would be better if we all died together!
Ji Haoyue immediately became furious: "Okay, okay."
"You guys are doing great!"
"It has only been a short time since I left, but the Haoyue Sect has already been destroyed. If I come back later, I am afraid they will not even recognize me, right? Ah?!" (End of this chapter)
