Chapter 123: Rebellion
As a disciple of one of the most prestigious sects in Zhongzhou, had Jiao Xueling ever been threatened like this by someone from another sect?
But since she was able to take the lead in running away in the middle of the night, she must be a rare hero - the kind who knows how to adapt to the times.
She took a deep breath and said with a fake smile: "Brother Baili is so willful, I wonder where he got the power from?"
You can't really blame her for being cowardly. She's not blind. She can't see that the golden rope that killed Bai Zhongqi is not an ordinary thing! Bai Zhongqi is her senior brother who entered the sect more than ten years earlier. His talent is not top-notch, but he is also diligent in his practice. He is at least a cultivator in the Golden Core Stage. With more than two hundred years of practice, he is only one step away from the Nascent Soul! If it weren't for the impending heavenly tribulation, in order to successfully pass the tribulation and become a Nascent Soul, Bai Zhongqi would not be so eager to make meritorious deeds in order to exchange for the middle-grade tribulation pill that can resist the Nascent Soul heavenly tribulation, and he would not want to get a share of the pie as soon as he heard about the Taiyin Sect - although her senior brother has always been aloof, this time, he is really too hasty!
But even so, such a Jindan stage cultivator was killed silently at the hands of the Taiyin Sect disciple in front of him, and ended up with his soul torn to pieces in the blink of an eye. How could Jiao Xueling not be terrified?
That golden rope must be some kind of magical weapon above the Earth Rank. Ordinary small sects and schools cannot get such a treasure! Not to mention that even if Bai Zhongqi did something unkind, he was still a member of the Taiyi Ziwei Sect. How could ordinary sects dare to offend him? Even if she was threatened to keep her mouth shut, would she dare to agree? Would the Taiyin Sect disciple across from her believe it?
Obviously, he is not afraid of being exposed! To act so recklessly, he must be a rare madman, or he really has someone behind him! At this time, Baili Shuang had already retracted the golden rope as if nothing had happened.
She showed no emotion on her face, and spoke slowly: "I know you, Jiao Xueling. You have water and wood spiritual roots, mainly wood and supplemented by water. You have cultivated a secret method that allows you to listen to the sounds of grass, trees, flowers and trees. Even among the ten continents and three islands, you are an extremely rare existence."
Jiao Xueling asked warily: "What do you mean?"
"Because you have mastered this secret method, you must know what a filthy place your Taiyi Ziwei Sect is."
Before Jiao Xueling could say anything, the two Taiyi Ziwei sect disciples following behind her became angry and said, "Don't say such nonsense!"
"The three sects of our Taiyi Sect are blessed by the Supreme God Taiyi. How can a small sect like yours slander us?"
Baili Shuang did not take what the two said as an offense, and simply said, "The sun rises and the moon is the moon. There are countless immortals and gods in the world, but how dare a firefly compete with the bright moon?"
"No wonder! No wonder you dare to call yourself 'Tai Yin Sect'!"
Jiao Xueling suddenly realized, but immediately had new doubts: "Even if the Taiyin Sect is backed by the Taiyin God, the gods and immortals do not descend to the mortal world, and everyone knows it! You are just a newly established sect, how dare you..."
Baili Shuang sneered at Jiao Xueling's words and interrupted her rudely, "Do immortals really not come down to the mortal world? How did the Penglai God kill thousands of disciples of the Piaomiao Immortal Sect? How did the Piaomiao Golden Immortal massacre two cities on Penglai Island? Yes, your Taiyi God has been enlightened for a long time and rarely interferes in worldly affairs. In the past hundred years, you haven't even issued an oracle. Why do you think that is?"
Jiao Xueling was shocked when she heard this. The fact that the Supreme God Taiyi had not given any oracle for a long time was a secret of the three sects of Taiyi Sect, and few people knew about it. Even the disciples of the three sects of Taiyi Sect, who were not the trusted confidants of the elders, had never heard of it. But how did the newly established small sect of Taiyin Sect know about it? And...
For a moment, Jiao Xueling held her breath.
Baili Shuang's words almost strangled her neck!
Why did the Supreme God Taiyi become less and less involved in the mundane affairs of the sect? Even when the Taiyi Sect split, he didn't care! ? This doubt has long been no secret among the sect's top leaders! If Jiao Xueling hadn't practiced a special technique that allowed her to know many secrets, she wouldn't have thought too much about such things that were unknown to outsiders! "What else could it be? Of course, it's because gods also have heavenly tribulations!"
As Baili Shuang finished speaking, a golden thunderbolt suddenly flashed across the dark night sky, illuminating the entire sky for a moment, and Jiao Xueling's pale face was exposed to the others. The two Taiyi Ziwei sect disciples behind Jiao Xueling didn't quite understand what she was saying, but they were very good at reading people's expressions. One of them trembled while supporting his senior sister, while the other one was shaking his legs, looking like he was ready to fight to the death at any time, staring at Baili Shuang.
"Why do some cultivators have a hard time with the calamity and face death, while others can get through it easily? Do you think it's because of different qualifications or the unpredictable power of heaven?
"Actually, it's because—"
Before Baili Shuang could finish her words, another bolt of lightning flashed down from nowhere. Compared to the previous bolt of lightning that seemed to carry a stronger warning, this one actually struck her directly with the force of thunder! "Gan!"
Baili Shuang frowned and couldn't help but vent his anger at being led astray by a group of evil players. Fortunately, the system's energy points were sufficient recently. In the time of crisis, some of them were automatically consumed and turned into a barrier to resist the thunder.
The consequences of revealing the secrets of the Jindan stage are too serious. Fang Xianyu dared not pretend anymore. Her puppet body wearing the vest of the Taiyin Sect's senior sister Baili Shuang had finally cultivated to the Jindan stage at the same time as the original body. If she got out of control, she would be heartbroken for several days! However, the power of the thunder was very strong. Fang Xianyu's vest Baili Shuang was protected by a barrier formed by the system energy and was not affected. Jiao Xueling, who was a few meters away from her, suffered.
At the critical moment, Jiao Xueling mobilized all the spiritual power in the golden elixir to protect the two junior brothers and sisters, but she herself resisted the damage of the thunderbolt - even if it was just a slight scratch, it knocked her to the ground, and even a few cracks appeared on the golden elixir! "Senior sister!"
The two Taiyi Ziwei sect disciples who were protected by Jiao Xueling were stunned at first, then they rolled and crawled towards Jiao Xueling, shouting at the top of their lungs and with tears in their eyes.
“Alright, alright,” Jiao Xueling tried her best to circulate her spiritual power and regulate her breathing. She panted and said, “You two are still crying! I’m not dead yet!”
"Well, consider it as my apology."
Baili Shuang took out an egg-sized Taiyin essence and pushed it over with a spell: "You saw it too, it's not that I don't want to say it, but I can't say it. Anyway,"
At this point, Baili Shuang smiled meaningfully: "The Taiyi Ziwei Sect and the Taiyi Qiankun Sect are both sinking. If they abandon the dark and join the light as soon as possible, there may still be a chance of survival."
Jiao Xueling accepted the Taiyin Essence without hesitation, and even started practicing her martial arts techniques on the spot, seemingly not worried at all about what Baili Shuang might do to her.
"Senior Sister, you..."
The younger junior sister standing by was stunned by her senior sister's actions and was at a loss as to what to do.
Another Taiyi Ziwei sect disciple pulled her and whispered, "Hush, that person didn't kill us like he killed Senior Brother Bai, which means he has other intentions. It's impossible for him to talk nonsense for a long time and then kill us. Don't make a fuss..."
The younger sister suddenly raised her voice and scolded, "Brother, what are you talking about? What Senior Brother Bai? Haven't we not seen Senior Brother Bai for a long time?"
"Oh, yes! Yes, yes, yes! What Senior Brother Bai? I can't even remember when was the last time I saw him, haha!"
