Forget it, let's take them out first. What they do is entirely up to them.
The leaders of the five sects—Daoyuan Sect, Qingyuan Sect, Yuantian Sect, Hongtian Sect, and Yuantian Sect—reunited after more than a decade. Aside from noticing that they had all aged considerably, they felt no other particular emotion. Such was the way of the world; no matter how much ambition or dream they had, it had all vanished into nothingness. In truth, long ago, they had all chosen to accept their fate.
With the opening of the Heavenly Gate imminent, Tianyuan Sect's actions have indeed displeased the five major sects. Fortunately, Dao Fang invited them, and everyone gathered together.
"I wonder what important matter Fellow Daoist Daofang has invited us here to discuss?" The speaker was the sect leader of Qingyuan Sect.
Dao Fang revealed Ye Xiruo and Xiu Qiyu's secrets to the four of them, and also told them about Xiu Qiyu and Ye Xiruo's plan to go through Tianmen, as well as their plan to go deep into Tianyuanmen to investigate information.
The other four sect leaders were stunned for a long time after hearing Dao Fang's words. The two brilliant young men, their cultivation levels that only appeared in ancient books, and their decision to recruit Dao Yuan Sect to learn about Tianmen, quickly led these old monsters to deduce that the two people might not be from Earth, but rather people who were transported to Earth by Tianmen or a similar place. That's why they were so focused on finding Tianmen, in fact, they were looking for their way home.
These old Taoist priests had cultivated for many years, and their skills were not particularly profound, but their knowledge was far beyond that of ordinary people. They were able to guess the backgrounds of Ye Xiruo and Xiu Qiyu quite well.
After learning about the two's cultivation levels, the old foxes abandoned their inappropriate thoughts. Befriending such young geniuses was the wisest choice; only a fool would provoke them and try to exploit them.
"The two seniors have already gone to scout ahead. We should hurry over and wipe out the Tianyuan Sect in one fell swoop."
"Brother Dao is right. If we displease those two, there may be more unexpected events at Tianmen this time."
The sect leaders left in a hurry. This time, Dao Fang and Tai Shi from Dao Yuan Sect planned to go together to lend their seniors a hand.
However, when they finally gathered their forces and marched in a grand procession to Tianyuan Gate, intending to demand an explanation, they were deeply shocked by what they saw before them.
Everyone's first reaction was, "No way, have we come to the wrong place?" This place of ruins and corpses lay before them was utterly incompatible with the grand and solemn Tianyuan Sect, which had always proclaimed itself the number one sect in the world. What human tragedy had occurred here?
Dao Fang quickly realized that the two seniors had probably made their move beforehand. He didn't know what Tianyuan Sect had done to provoke them, causing them to act so hastily and in such a way.
"Let's go in and see if the two seniors are injured." After all, Tianyuan Sect is a prestigious sect with a history of thousands of years. Although Li Qiong has made things chaotic, who knows how many more schemes and tricks he still has? We must make sure that the two upright and righteous seniors don't fall into Li Qiong's trap.
This seemingly massive army of annihilators was actually only about twenty people. Of course, they were all experts at the Golden Core stage or above, which was enough to demonstrate the determination of the major sects to completely destroy the Tianyuan Sect.
Upon entering, it was discovered that, apart from the library, all the buildings had been burned to the ground, leaving only some black charcoal.
The entire Tianyuan Sect was utterly desolate and lifeless, with not a single survivor. Just two people had destroyed an entire sect. Everyone reassessed the terrifying strength of Ye Xiruo and Xiu Qiyu once again. Such people were absolutely not to be trifled with; otherwise, Tianyuan Sect might very well suffer the same fate.
Where did Ye Xiruo and Xiu Qiyu go? Naturally, to the basement. Li Qiong had left himself many secret passages. All of Li Qiong's men were killed, and the entire Tianyuan Sect, except for the library, was destroyed.
Only about thirty people remained in the entire Tianyuan Sect. Their expressions were a mixture of shock, confusion, and sadness, but none of hatred. Although Ye Xiruo and Xiu Qiyu had destroyed the Tianyuan Sect, it was precisely these two who had rescued them, giving them the chance to see the light of day again.
"Our target is only Tianmen. We will no longer interfere in the affairs of your Tianyuan Sect. However, if you do anything so outrageous again, the other sects will not let you off the hook."
"Yes, yes, yes, Li Qiong is guilty of heinous crimes and almost destroyed the entire Tianyuan Sect because of his own selfishness. Thank you both for your kindness in preserving the Tianyuan Sect's flame. From today onwards, the Tianyuan Sect will close its doors and remain hidden from the world."
"This is your own business."
Ye Xiruo had no good feelings towards the entire Tianyuan Sect. After speaking, she pulled Xiu Qiyu away, saying, "Did we go too far? The sect leader and the others should be here soon."
“Go out and see, they’ll only be grateful to you.” After all, the two of them had done everything for a group of people outside.
"Do you want to go out and meet your fellow disciples?" Ye Xiruo asked the oldest man.
"It is right. Li Qiong has committed evil deeds for many years, bringing great disaster to the entire cultivation sect. We are also to blame and should go out and apologize to our fellow disciples."
"Let's go together then."
So, Ye Xiruo, Xiu Qiyu, and the old man went outside together. The flames outside were ordinary fire mixed with Ice Heart Flame, and they wouldn't stop until everything was burned away.
The once scenic Tianyuan Gate has now become a scene from a disaster movie. Ye Xiruo's lips twitched a couple of times, as if she had gone a bit too far. After all, the mountains, rivers, flowers, and plants here were innocent, and they were all burned down in one fire.
The old man couldn't help but burst into tears at the sight of the tragic scene before him, but he had no complaints about Xiu Qiyu and Ye Xiruo.
"Don't cry. The future of Tianyuan Sect depends on you. The founder is watching." Ye Xiruo's awkward way of comforting him made Xiu Qiyu burst out laughing.
Not far away, Dao Fang and Tai Shi led a group of old men, who all rushed up and surrounded the three of them.
The old men's eyes seemed to be glowing with a green light as they looked at Ye Xiruo and Xiu Qiyu as if they were looking at mysterious and rare protected animals. The old men from Tianyuan Sect were completely ignored by them.
"Young friends, we are late."
Xiu Qiyu gave a faint "hmm" and said nothing more. Ye Xiruo took out a jade slip and handed it to Dao Fang: "Take a look, everyone. People like this don't deserve to live in this world."
