Elder Jinchen was the last person Su Rui notified. After he took his seat, all the people from the various sects united by the Wutai Sect arrived. However, no one present discussed the small sword duel. Instead, starting with Elder Jinchen, they all began to compliment Taoist Bai Gu.
Elder Jinchen, the representative of the Wutai Sect, sat next to Bai Gu Taoist. As soon as he sat down, he immediately bowed to Bai Gu Taoist to express his respect. His eyes were filled with awe and admiration, as if Bai Gu Taoist were an unrivaled hero.
Representatives from other sects followed suit, offering their own praises to the Hundred Gu Taoist Priest. Statements like, "When the Immortal appears, even Qi Qiuchan, the head of Emei, would surrender," and "With the Immortal around, the younger generation of the righteous are nothing but weaklings" were endless.
Their words were filled with admiration and respect for the Hundred Gu Taoist Priest, as if he were a mythical being. Some representatives were so excited that their faces flushed and their voices trembled, as if they had met their idol. While these words were exaggerated, they indirectly demonstrated the immense power of this Southern Demon Cult leader, as imposing as Mount Tai, impossible to ignore.
Su Rui sat nearby, nearly gnashing his teeth at the compliments. As a righteous spy, he'd heard many compliments about Bai Gu Zhenren and felt a mountain of pressure from him. But Su Rui felt only a hint of madness in his every move, not a hint of fear.
Of course, on this occasion, he couldn't stand out too much and could only hypocritically join everyone in paying respects to Master Bai Gu.
After a round of flattery, Bai Gu Taoist finally spoke. His voice was sharp and hoarse, his tone harsh. He said to the crowd, "As for the sword fight, Emei and Kunlun will be mine. The rest will be divided among you!"
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement, like chicks pecking at rice. Emei and Kunlun were widely recognized as the "most powerful" and "most righteous" factions of the righteous path, and had always been tough opponents in swordfights. Since Master Bai Gu was willing to take on this responsibility himself, that was of course the best option.
Taoist Bai Gu's face was gloomy as he continued, "Although this sword fight isn't the one of a hundred years, it's our chance. If we kill all the disciples led by Emei, Emei's rise will become a joke. Therefore, this not only concerns the reputation of our various sects, but also our future. I hope everyone here will use their most effective means to kill all those who claim to be righteous, leaving no one alive!"
His words were full of warnings and reminders. Everyone nodded in agreement and echoed in unison: "Kill them all, leaving no one alive."
Bai Gu Zhenren nodded with satisfaction, then sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, as if he was practicing meditation.
Seeing this, everyone immediately fell silent, staring at each other in dismay, not daring to speak loudly. It was Elder Jin Chen who first broke the silence. He stood up gracefully, bowed respectfully to Bai Gu Zhenren, and then left the guest hall. Then, one after another, others stood up, followed suit, bowed respectfully to Bai Gu Zhenren, and quietly left the hall.
Su Rui followed Elder Jin Chen out of the guest hall, and Taoist Yuan Huai signaled him to stay outside and arrange for the guests. Su Rui suspected that he and Elder Jin Chen had something shameful going on, but he was the master and he was the apprentice, so he had to listen to him.
Su Rui didn't recognize the first person who walked out. He only knew that he was an elder of the Bamboo Mountain Sect. He did remember the person behind him. But regardless of whether he knew him or not, Su Rui had to go and meet him.
"Greetings, Elder. You have come from afar. If you have any requests, please feel free to ask. As the host, our Wutai Sect will do its best to meet them!"
"Prepare some iron ore for me. I need to forge a mechanical man!" The Bamboo Mountain Sect elder said this and hurried away. The Bamboo Mountain Sect disciples behind him bowed and hurriedly followed him.
The second one to come out was the Blood Demon. When he saw Su Rui, he just sneered and turned into a streak of blood light, disappearing without a trace. No one knew where he hid.
The third person to come out was the Saint of the Naked Cult. The two burly men behind her were like two iron towers, following closely behind her. She smiled at Su Rui, opened her red lips, and spoke in a voice as sweet as an oriole: "You dare to come back? Aren't you afraid that I will reveal your true identity?"
Su Rui shook his head and gave her a provocative look. The Saint of the Naked Cult raised her eyebrows, snorted, and left.
The fourth one who came out was a disciple of the White Bone God. He was not a fool like Hu Juwan, but a real core disciple. He had a flying sword and magic weapons in his hands. He looked like someone who was not easy to mess with.
The fifth one...
Su Rui trembled as she inquired about their needs one by one. After sending them all away, she saw Bai Gu Zhenren still meditating in the hall, so she carefully closed the door. Just as she felt relieved, a hoarse and low voice suddenly rang in her ears: "Send a cow!"
The voice was ghostly and eerie. Su Rui was so frightened by the sudden and eerie voice that he broke out in a cold sweat. Before, when facing a group of people, Su Rui had not noticed anything unusual, but now facing him alone, he was really scared.
He did not dare to delay for even a moment and immediately responded, "Yes, Master." Then he hurried out.
"Junior Brother Ma Huai, the elder wants to see you?"
Su Rui looked up and saw that it was a disciple of Zhushan Sect.
"Please wait a moment, senior brother. True Man Bai Gu has some instructions. I will come to you after I have taken good care of him!" Su Rui responded.
