Upon hearing Guo Feng's words, Ji Yun offered no further explanation, and the group soon arrived at the main hall on the summit.
When Yuexi saw Zuo Xintao, she immediately rushed into her arms and said with a sob in her voice, "Master, I missed you so much."
Zuo Xintao stroked her head and asked softly, "What's wrong?"
"Ugh, that lecherous man wants me to have five kids with him..."
"Cough cough!" Ji Yun coughed a few times and said, "I took Yuexi to the outer realms so that she could see the world there. It will be good for her cultivation."
Zuo Xintao was somewhat confused by her disciple's words and asked, "What did you just say? What lecher? Did something happen to you in the outer realms?"
Yuexi released Zuo Xintao, blushed, and whispered, "I went to the outer realms for a while, and my cultivation level broke through two levels when I came back."
Zuo Xintao, Ye Wudao, and Guo Feng: "..."
They were filled with envy. This disciple was so lucky. He broke through after only a few days. They themselves had cultivated for decades and barely managed to break through to the first level. It was truly infuriating to compare oneself to others.
Suddenly, Ye Wudao's communication talisman lit up, and he quickly checked it.
Seeing his furrowed brows, the others asked, "Is something the matter?"
Ye Wudao: "The Purple Flame Immortal Sect and the Lingxiao Sword Sect have brought people here to demand an explanation."
Zuo Xintao asked, "How could this happen? Is something wrong?"
"It seems to be because of Lin Shengwen. They say Lin Shengwen killed several of their disciples."
Noticing Yuexi's gaze, Ji Yun nodded, indicating that it was true.
In the story, Lin Shengwen is in a secret realm when two sect disciples try to seize an opportunity from him. Lin Shengwen takes direct action and kills several disciples from those two sects.
At this moment, Bai Xiao rushed over in a panic and asked immediately upon landing, "Sect Master, Lin Shengwen is not in the sect right now. What should we do?"
Ye Wudao pondered for a moment, then looked at Ji Yun and asked, "Senior Ji, can you help with this matter?"
Ji Yun smiled and said, "Why do we need others' help? We can handle our own sect's affairs. Let's go out and confront them directly. If they want to fight, then let them fight."
Ye Wudao: "This... our sect is no match for those two great immortal sects. The difference in strength is too great. How can we possibly fight them?"
“They didn’t come with their entire sects, it must have been just one or two elders with some disciples. Also, I’m afraid more people will come later. I deduce that Lin Shengwen has provoked more than just these two sects this time, perhaps the Moon Palace has also brought people.”
Ji Yun paused for a moment, then continued, "They might already be on their way."
Bai Xiao felt dizzy and his face showed a bitter expression: "This traitorous disciple has brought such a great disaster to the sect."
The Ten Great Immortal Sects have now provoked three of them. How can our small sect possibly withstand this? If we don't handle this properly, it could bring immeasurable consequences to our sect.
Ye Wudao frowned and continued to ask, "Senior Ji, now that two of the ten great immortal sects have arrived, what should we do?"
Ji Yun waved his hand and said, "Don't panic, Elder Bai Xiao. You will split up into two groups and head to Jiaoyue Palace and Ningxiang Pavilion."
Bai Xiao was taken aback and said, "How can I split up into two groups by myself?"
Ye Wudao, Guo Feng, Zuo Xintao, and Yue Xi: "..."
This statement confused everyone. Why couldn't they understand what Senior Ji was saying?
Ji Yun continued, "Go to the Bright Moon Palace first. If you encounter anyone on the way, explain to them that Lin Shengwen did not bully their Holy Maiden. Then send a message to Lin Shengwen, asking him to take Chu Muxi back to the Bright Moon Palace. Otherwise, the Bright Moon Palace will think that Lin Shengwen has abducted their Holy Maiden..."
"Finally, go to Ningxiang Pavilion and summon a woman named Jiang Xue. Tell her that Lin Shengwen is in imminent danger and ask her to come and explain what happened in the secret realm that day. Otherwise, these two major sects will insist that Lin Shengwen coveted the opportunity and killed their disciple."
After hearing Ji Yun's words, everyone suddenly understood what was going on. After all, they all knew that fighting was inevitable in the struggle within the secret realm, but without concrete evidence, nothing usually happened.
However, some powerful sects are not so easy to talk to. After all, they need to protect their sect's reputation and certainly cannot let their disciples die in vain. They are determined to seek justice.
"I'll go now." Bai Xiao left immediately.
Ji Yun said, "Let's go, let's go out and see those people."
At the mountain gate, both major immortal sects arrived with an elder and a dozen or so disciples, all eyeing Lingyun Sect with predatory intent.
Many disciples were already at the mountain gate, each with a worried expression.
Ji Yun and his group arrived at the mountain gate and met the two elders.
One of the elders from the Purple Flame Immortal Sect shouted sternly, "Your Lingyun Sect must give us an explanation!"
Ye Wudao responded, "I am aware of the matter of your sect's disciple being killed. The situation was complicated at the time, as you all know. Fighting is inevitable when vying for treasures in a secret realm."
Another elder from the Lingxiao Sword Sect interjected, "Hmph! Do you think a simple 'it was inevitable' can cover up the fact that you killed your disciples?"
Ye Wudao calmly said, "Of course not, but I have some understanding of the situation. It was because the disciples of various immortal sects were vying for Lin Shengwen's possessions that the fight broke out. Moreover, people from other sects also witnessed it. We have already sent people to invite them to seek justice."
The elder of the Purple Flame Immortal Sect said coldly, "Could it be that you've only brought your own people to fool us?"
The four elders and many disciples of Lingyun Sect all looked grim after hearing this.
Yuexi tugged at Ji Yun's sleeve: "I'm afraid this won't end well. Is there any way to resolve this?"
"They've made up their minds to cause trouble. I thought these sects would be reasonable, but who knew they'd be so domineering."
Ji Yun spoke directly: "Are you two great immortal sects coming to our door to cause trouble without even knowing the facts?"
The elder of Lingxiao Sword Sect carefully examined Ji Yun, but found that he could not see through the man's cultivation level. He was somewhat surprised and uncertain, so he said, "If a disciple of ours is killed, can't we come up here to seek an explanation?"
"The answer is simple: he deserved it!" Ji Yun said firmly.
The crowd erupted in uproar. This person must be tired of living to dare to speak to the Lingxiao Sword Sect and the Ziyan Immortal Sect like that.
The elder of the Purple Flame Immortal Sect glared angrily: "Do you know what you're saying? Are you trying to make us your enemy, a fight to the death?"
Such threatening words filled the Lingyun Sect disciples with panic. How could they possibly contend with such a behemoth?
Of course, there are also some who are not afraid of death. As long as the sect leader gives the order, they will fight to the death with the invading enemy.
A barely perceptible glint flashed in Wang Haoran's eyes as he loudly proclaimed, "Sect Master, this matter was caused by Senior Brother Lin. Let him resolve the trouble he caused; do not involve the sect."
A disciple of Lingyun Sect suddenly realized, "Yes, this is trouble caused by Senior Brother Lin. Why should we risk our lives for him?"
