The banquet came to an end.
Li Chunfeng entered the back hall, and in the blink of an eye, he transformed into a cloud and soared into the sky.
A moment later, we arrived at the Nine Rivers and Great Marshland, at the very center of the giant mountain.
At that time, the night was cool as water, and the moonlight was like a long river, surging down.
"To devour stars and drink the moon, how carefree!"
"Is this the demeanor of Daoji Zhenren?"
Even though it wasn't the first time he had seen it, Li Chunfeng still felt a strong attraction to it.
When did Chunfeng arrive?
Not long after, Yuan Tiangang finished his practice and descended from the mountain peak under the moonlight.
"Disciple greets Master!"
Li Chunfeng bowed deeply and said, "Your disciple has some doubts and has come to ask your master for guidance."
Yuan Tiangang looked at the extremely respectful Li Chunfeng, his eyes filled with an inscrutable expression, "Have you come for Bai Cang?"
Li Chunfeng said, "Yes and no, I'm just curious why he deserves the favor of the True Lord."
Yuan Tiangang sighed, "Do you know what we, or rather the entire Heshan Sect of Xia Kingdom, mean to a True Lord?"
Li Chunfeng hesitated for a moment, then tentatively asked, "The guard dog of the True Lord's Daoist temple?"
Yuan Tiangang sneered, "What a load of bull! Do you think we're worthy to be dogs for a True Lord?"
"The entire Xia Kingdom's Heshan Sect is nothing more than a game played by the True Lord."
"They play with it on a whim, and discard it like trash when they're in a bad mood. What kind of logic is that?"
Isn't this still a dog?
It's just the difference between a watchdog and a pet dog!
Li Chunfeng cursed inwardly, but outwardly wished he could bury his head in his crotch and cover his ears tightly, ideally becoming deaf.
To speak ill of the True Lord is to have your entire family wiped out!
"You mean: the favor of the True Lord is not reliable?" Li Chunfeng forcibly changed the subject.
"You will only be favored if the True Lord remembers you; if he doesn't remember you, no favor will be of any use."
Yuan Tiangang said irritably, "We are merely nominal disciples temporarily registered in the register. What qualifications do we have to warrant the True Lord's concern?"
"Han Qinhu may be remembered by the True Lord as an experimental subject, but he is still far from becoming a true disciple of the True Lord."
"If Han Qinhu is like this, what about his disciple?"
Upon hearing this, Li Chunfeng was not pleased but shocked, even feeling as if he had been struck by lightning. "Masters, aren't you personally taught by the True Lord?"
I always thought I was the direct descendant of the True Lord, but now you're telling me that I'm not only not a "blood relative," but not even a "son of a maid," but actually the flesh and blood of "Master Qin the gatekeeper."
This is worse than death! I can't accept such a huge "contrast"!
"When the True Lord still wanted the Heshan Sect, we were his personal disciples. If he no longer wants the Heshan Sect, what will we have left besides a few remaining incense offerings? What will we be?"
Yuan Tiangang said quietly, "How do you feel about seeing the True Lord's carriage today?"
Li Chunfeng subconsciously revealed an expression of "I am proud to share in this," and said with great pride, "The floodwaters burst through the four seas, surging into the Milky Way. Such a magnificent spectacle is no less than that of the True Lord of the Mysterious Gate!"
Yuan Tiangang scoffed, "What do you mean by not inferior to the True Lord of Xuanmen? He is the True Lord of Xuanmen, just using the name of Heshan Dao to do some things."
"Do you really think the True Lord is also a member of the unorthodox sect? We are the unorthodox sect, not even worthy of his attention..."
Halfway through his sentence, Yuan Tiangang seemed to realize his lapse in composure and abruptly changed the subject, "What did you just say?"
Li Chunfeng was a little unable to keep up with his master's leaping thoughts. "I mean, if Bai Cang has been wronged, could he ask a True Lord to come and support him?"
Yuan Tiangang chuckled upon hearing this, "Why would he need a True Monarch to back him up? Isn't Han Qinhu's ferocity in killing a Foundation Establishment cultivator with the power of Qi Refining enough to frighten you?"
Upon hearing this, Li Chunfeng was struck by lightning a second time, his body trembling violently, his face filled with disbelief, "Killing a Foundation Establishment cultivator with Qi Refining skill?"
How come I've never heard of this before?
"Haven't I told you these things?"
Yuan Tiangang glanced at his disciple with some surprise. "No wonder you had such a foolish idea. I thought you weren't afraid of death!"
"But it doesn't matter. Anyway, if Han Qinhu forges a high-grade Dao foundation, I can't protect you. Your life and death are in your own hands. What does it have to do with me?"
Li Chunfeng had no idea why his master had broken through his defenses today; he hadn't noticed it at all during the day.
But he also knew that he could no longer stay by Yuan Tiangang's side.
Have you not heard the saying: When the city gate catches fire, the fish in the moat suffer as well?
So he forced a smile and said, "Master is a powerful expert in the Gang Sha Realm, what is there to fear from Han Qinhu?"
"Perhaps in the future, Master can become a true disciple of the True Lord."
Do you think I still have a chance? I only want to be a "grand-disciple of the True Lord"!
"Heh, your delusional thinking is quite similar to that idiot Han Qinhu."
Yuan Tiangang waved his hand, "Get lost! You can't even see a shadow of the Heavenly River Orthodox Law, yet you dare to dream of becoming a True Lord's personal disciple?"
Li Chunfeng didn't know whether Yuan Tiangang was cursing him or Han Qinhu.
But they still slunk away in disgrace!
Maya! Master is probably going crazy!
………
Meanwhile, at the Moonflower Cave.
Bai Cang also cursed, "Damn it! Has that old scoundrel Han gone crazy from poverty?"
Looking at the empty, suspended mountain and the cave that could starve a rat.
Bai Cang gained a new understanding of Han Qinhu's poverty and shamelessness.
No wonder he wouldn't even go inside; he just gave directions and then ran away.
So he had already emptied the entire Moonflower Cave beforehand!
"Pah! You know this kind of thing is dishonorable? At least leave me a few pieces of furniture, okay?"
Bai Cang spat in the direction Han Qinhu left, "If I weren't so badly defeated, I would have made you, you shameless old thief, understand why flowers are so red."
As he continued cursing, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.
We've struck it rich! We've made a fortune!
With a wave of his sleeve, Bai Cang displayed a dozen corpses, along with various magical artifacts and objects, lined up in front of him.
Putting aside the rewards from the True Lord, the "gift" he received today alone is enough to make him rich overnight.
Especially the Pure Yuan Magic Water, Moon Dew, and Taiyin True Water, which are worth at least tens of thousands of spirit pearls.
In addition, there was a storage bag and a token for withdrawing five thousand spirit pearls, gifts from the two "senior uncles," and a thousand talisman coins given by Master Qian from the miscellaneous courtyard.

Bai Cang quickly sorted out the "gifts" and then looked at his "spoils of war".
"The Five Yin Qi Bag and the Eighteen Forbidden Techniques can be kept; it just so happens that we have Pure Yuan Magic Water."
Bai Cang tossed the gloomy, ghostly-patterned brocade pouch into the small cauldron containing pure Yuan magic water. "Mysterious Feather Iron Wings, eight forbidden spells, trash. A broken magic artifact, trash. Another broken magic artifact, still trash..."
"This is interesting. The Heavy Profound Turbidity Furnace? It has eighteen restrictions and is a magic artifact of the alchemy furnace type. It's perfect for replacing the Primordial Chaos Cauldron."
After sorting through everything, Bai Cang kept only Wang Chao's two magical artifacts. He threw all the other "miscellaneous items" into his storage bag along with the corpse, intending to dispose of them together.
"It's a pity that in order to crush Wang Chao, he self-destructed twenty or thirty magical artifacts!"
Bai Cang was delighted, but also a little heartbroken. "Moreover, most of Wang Chao's defensive magic artifacts were already damaged. Otherwise, it would have been an even bigger profit!"
"But now, I can finally cultivate properly!"
