How did you know I was coming back today?
On the way back to the sect, Bai Hao asked.
He didn't inform Fan Ziming in advance when he would be back, so how did Fan Ziming know he was coming back?
"I heard the commotion over here and thought some disciple had been ambushed, so I rushed over to check. I didn't expect it to be you, Brother Bai. I was just worrying for nothing," Fan Ziming said, scratching his head a little embarrassed.
He had originally thought that if his junior sister were ambushed, he could show his heroic spirit.
Unexpectedly, it was Bai Hao.
"What's going on here? Why are the people from the Divine Sea Sect lying in ambush at the foot of our mountain? And why is it that an elder is leading the team personally?" Bai Hao asked in confusion.
It's true that the Divine Sea Sect and they are at odds, but no one expected them to be so crazy as to come directly to their doorstep to ambush them, and with an elder personally leading the team.
Thank goodness it was Bai Hao today; anyone else would have been dead long ago.
"That's exactly what I wanted to tell you." Fan Ziming's expression turned serious.
"About half a month ago, I don't know what went wrong with the Divine Sea Sect. They mobilized the entire sect to intercept and kill our disciples everywhere. They were ruthless and completely aimed for a fight to the death. During this period, more than a dozen of our disciples have already suffered at their hands."
Bai Hao was startled.
"So crazy? Have they lost their mind? Or are they going to start a full-scale war with us?"
The Divine Sea Sect's actions are no longer minor skirmishes; they're serious now, and this is essentially a feud between sects. Is the Divine Sea Sect really that principled?
"Feng Qingjue is crippled, where do they get the confidence to fight us? Shouldn't we just have the sect leader take action and wipe them out in one fell swoop?"
Without Feng Qingjue, the mere Divine Sea Sect is like a tiger without its fangs—it possesses brute strength but poses little threat.
Even if it were a real tiger, I wouldn't be afraid of it. Why would I be afraid of a toothless tiger?
"That's where the problem lies," Fan Ziming sighed softly.
"Didn't the sect leader open the ancestral land a month ago? She hasn't come out since she went in, saying she's going into seclusion for two months. The Divine Sea Sect dared to make a move precisely because of this time. If the sect leader hadn't had the foresight to set up a sect barrier, those lunatics from the Divine Sea Sect would have already attacked."
If Su Yuewan were here, the Divine Sea Sect wouldn't dare to be so arrogant even if they had ten times the courage.
But now they've taken advantage of Su Yuewan's absence during this period, which is why they're retaliating so fiercely.
With Feng Qingjue gone, the strength of the Divine Sea Sect has been greatly reduced. In the short term, it may even face threats from other sects, just like the Falling Sea Sect back then. Su Yuewan only went into seclusion for a few decades, and the once glorious Falling Sea Sect was devoured beyond recognition.
The current sect leader of the Divine Sea Sect is now crippled, and his fate will definitely not be much better than that of the Falling Sea Sect back then.
Now they're acting like madmen, partly to avenge Feng Qingjue, but also largely because they want to take advantage of the fact that the power of the Divine Sea Sect hasn't completely dissipated and turn against the Falling Sea Sect.
If they could manage to take a bite out of the Falling Sea Sect, they might be able to preserve the prestige of the Divine Sea Sect, allowing them to recover and regain their position as a first-rate sect.
Judging from your current situation, it seems their last desperate attempt has failed.
Yue Jiu has already been killed by Bai Hao, and the loss of another elder is a heavy blow to the Shenhai Sect.
But they brought this upon themselves, so they can't blame anyone else.
"The sect leader has gone into seclusion again. Didn't you call all the other disciples back and tell them not to go out during this time? How come so many disciples were ambushed?" Bai Hao asked.
“When they first made their move, we never expected them to go this far. Many disciples were captured at that time. Now, almost all the disciples are still in the sect and haven't left. Only when the sect leader comes out and wipes out the rest will we be truly safe. Also, before the sect leader went in, he asked me to give you this letter.” Fan Ziming said, taking out a folded piece of paper from his pocket and handing it to Bai Hao.
"A letter? Is there something you can't just pass on directly? Why did you have to write a letter? That's weird."
Despite his complaints, Bai Hao still accepted the letter.
Unfold the letter; it was written in delicate, small handwriting:
"You brat, after you buy the pills, distribute some to each disciple, and then bring the rest to the ancestral land to find me. I'll be waiting for you on the highest peak in the ancestral land. Remember, don't tell anyone."
The content is a bit strange.
What's this guy up to now? He can't even let anyone know he's sending a medicinal pill?
"Little Fatty, have you read the contents of this letter?"
Fan Ziming shook his head: "No, how could I dare to peek at what the sect leader instructed me to give you? What's written on it? Can I take a look?"
He craned his neck to take a look, but Bai Hao slapped him back.
"It's good that you haven't seen it. This content is not suitable for children, so you'd better not read it." As he spoke, he pinched the letter with his fingers and exerted a little force. The entire piece of paper instantly turned into countless fragments, which drifted into the air with the wind.
Hmm, it's starting to sound a bit mysterious.
"If you don't want me to watch, then don't. Why did you have to destroy it? I wasn't going to peek." Fan Ziming expressed his dissatisfaction with Bai Hao's actions.
Did he think I would peek, which is why he destroyed it? Is he that kind of person?
"Stop talking nonsense, do you know what kind of pills I have in my car?" Bai Hao said.
"I don't know, the sect leader never told me."
"These are all healing medicines. There are words written on the bottles. When we get to the sect, you're in charge of giving each disciple twenty Rejuvenation Pills and ten Bone Growth Pills for backup. The Bone Growth Pills are more effective than the Rejuvenation Pills, so tell everyone to use them as needed," Bai Hao instructed.
Although there are many pills, we can't just give them all out at once, can we?
"Everyone gets it?"
"Yes, there are plenty of Rejuvenation Pills and Bone-Growth Pills, more than enough. After distributing them, put the rest back in the warehouse and have someone keep an eye on them," Bai Hao said.
"Me? What about you, Brother Bai?"
"I still have some things to do, you just need to finish these things first."
As they were talking, the carriage had already returned to the Luohai Sect. Without saying a word, Bai Hao took a bottle of Rejuvenation Pill, a bottle of Bone Growth Pill, a bottle of Longevity Pill, and a bottle of Nine-Turn Pill from the carriage, and then headed straight for the ancestral land.
Before leaving, he didn't forget to give Fan Ziming another piece of advice.
"Remember, don't send too many. It's better to send fewer and wait for me to come back to make a decision than to send too many!"
"Understood, Brother Bai, you can go in peace!"
Fan Ziming took the reins and drove the carriage back to the warehouse in Bai Hao's place, where he began to have the goods unloaded...
