Chapter 470: Eating is too ugly
Yun Qingqing looked in the direction of the voice and saw that the person speaking was an old man in a white robe.
The old man had white hair and a youthful face, looking like an immortal. His eyes were as sharp as an eagle. He glanced at himself lightly and then fell on Xiao Changheng.
"The young man has a good appearance, and I don't know what magical weapon he used to conceal his cultivation level. But he thinks he can compete with the entire Leihuo Sect based on this alone. Isn't that too much of a disdain for our thirty-six sects in Baiheling?"
After he finished speaking, Yun Qingqing raised her eyebrows.
Xiao Changheng: ...
Kong Zhao and the dozen or so elders of Shuihua Sect: ...
The black jade amulet refined by Yun Qingqing hid Xiao Changheng's aura, constitution and other information strictly. The old man could not see anything and instead mistakenly thought that he was a cultivator who concealed his aura.
Yun Qingqing herself did not hide anything, and ordinary cultivators could tell at a glance that she was a girl only in her teens.
However, her aura was extremely restrained, and her spiritual power did not leak out at all. This was something that only practitioners with extremely profound cultivation could achieve. Outsiders did not understand why, and often thought that Yun Qingqing had some magical tool on her body to conceal her aura.
The old man just glanced at the two of them and subconsciously felt that Xiao Changheng, who was a few years older and a man, was the one with higher cultivation.
Yun Qingqing didn't show any emotion. She just threw the Qingfengzi in her hand to the ground, looked at the old man calmly, glanced at the people around her, and asked calmly:
"What do you mean?"
Yun Qingqing had an impression of the so-called thirty-six sects of Baiheling. She had seen them before when she was reading ancient books.
Baiheling is an entire mountain range nearby, covering a vast area. The thirty-six sects distributed here are all small and medium-sized. Shuihua Sect is one of them, and Leihuo Sect is also one of them.
Given the current situation, Yun Qingqing had already roughly guessed what was going on.
As expected, a middle-aged man in a yellow robe stood out from another camp and said loudly:
"The Thunder Fire Sect kidnapped our disciples, a display of arrogance. We are here to seek justice. However, we didn't expect that something went wrong within the Thunder Fire Sect, leading to its annihilation. Naturally, we must compensate for our losses with the resources and treasures left behind by the Thunder Fire Sect!"
The white-robed old man in front echoed:
"That's right! I didn't expect you two juniors to get the upper hand first. Don't you know that such behavior will bring disaster? I advise you to be more sensible and quickly hand over the remnants of the Thunder Fire Sect. We will forgive you for what happened!"
As the old man spoke, his eyes were fixed on the bound Qingfengzi. He had obviously determined that he was the "remnant of the Leihuo Sect" and thought that he could pry out the whereabouts of the Leihuo Sect's secret treasures from this person.
Yun Qingqing understood that these people were originally here to rescue disciples just like the Shuihua Sect.
But when they arrived here, they found that the mountain was full of corpses of people from the Leihuo Sect. They thought that something had happened inside the sect and they had destroyed themselves.
I think that I have been delaying Xiao Changheng's treatment in the small world for so long, Kong Zhao should have explained the whole cause and effect to them.
But obviously these people don't believe it.
Now that he saw that there were only two juniors on his side, his previous guess became more certain. He felt that he had just accidentally stumbled upon the internal strife among the top leaders of the Leihuo Sect, where they killed each other and suffered heavy casualties, and he finally got the upper hand.
As if to verify her guess, many people around her stood up and spoke at once:
"In recent years, the Leihuo Sect has relied on strange magical instruments obtained from who knows where to bully sects like us. Now that the Leihuo Sect has been wiped out, the legacy should naturally be divided equally among the other sects!"
"That's right. The remnant of the Thunder Fire Sect in your hands must be the key to the sect's treasure. Why don't you hand him over immediately!"
"You, the Shuihua Sect, don't even think about taking the treasure for yourself! I advise you to be smart. If a fight really breaks out right now, can you, the Shuihua Sect alone, really stand up to all of us?"
Kong Zhao's eyebrows stood up in anger:
"You guys are so arrogant! I want to ask you, who among you here has the ability to break open the small world?"
As soon as she said this, everyone present was silent for a moment and looked at each other in confusion.
Everyone in the Xuanmen sect knows that the small world can only be created by the ancient powerful ones.
In today's world, even if the ancient great powers have fallen, if someone really accidentally controls the small world left behind by the great powers, wouldn't that be equivalent to controlling a powerful weapon?
Kong Zhao looked at everyone and sneered:
"If it were you who were trapped in the small world today, even if thirty-six sects gathered together, it would be useless!"
"Today, Yun Qingqing single-handedly resisted and suppressed the Thunder Fire Sect. It was thanks to her that you disciples were rescued. Not only are you ungrateful, but you are all blinded by greed and want to get a piece of the action. Why?"
Her words left everyone silent. Many people felt embarrassed, but were also frightened by the events of the small world and didn't know what to say for a moment.
At this moment, the old man in white robe suddenly snorted again and said:
"Don't listen to her nonsense! These two juniors, even if they have many protective magical tools given by the elders, can't possibly fight against the small world left behind by the ancient great powers!"
"I think the so-called small world is simply a lie made up by the Shuihua Sect Leader! Her goal is to allow her sect to monopolize the treasures and magical instruments left behind by the Leihuo Sect!"
After hearing what he said, everyone felt that they had found the truth and responded immediately.
The middle-aged man in the yellow robe nodded repeatedly:
"Oh, what the old Master Fang of Baisha Sect said is correct! Just relying on these two little kids, they dare to boast that they can compete with the small world? Master Shuihua, don't you think this is too outrageous?"
People from other sects also stood up and spoke:
"Don't make me laugh. I've been practicing for decades, and I've never heard of anyone in the entire sect being able to fight against a small world independently!"
"Don't listen to her nonsense. Isn't it obvious? There's no such thing as a small world. She's just made it up to fool us!"
"I think the Shuihua Sect is clearly harboring evil intentions and wants to become the next Leihuo Sect! This matter must not be tolerated!"
"Master Kong Zhao, I advise you to have these two juniors hand over the remnants of the Leihuo Sect and swear never to do anything harmful to the Thirty-Six Sects. Otherwise, don't blame us for being rude today!"
Kong Zhao's expression became increasingly gloomy, mixed with a hint of worry.
Suddenly, a clear voice rang out from the crowd:
"The way you guys eat is so ugly!"
The expressions of the others changed, and they turned to glare at the person who spoke.
The person who was speaking was an old man in a green robe. He had an old face, black hair, a long beard, and kind eyes.
The old man smiled gently, but his words were sharp:
"Regardless of whether the small world story is true or not, the Shuihua Sect broke the mountain protection formation that we have been unable to break, and also rescued many of our sect's imprisoned disciples. This is the fact!"
"You have received favors from others, but you are not grateful enough. Instead, you rely on your numbers and strength to rob others. I really cannot agree with this!"
He stepped forward and saluted Kong Zhao, saying:
"Master Kong Zhao, if a fight really breaks out today, my Cang Yu Sect will definitely help you with all our might, just as a way of repaying your kindness!"
Kong Zhao had never thought that someone would be willing to stand by him in such a situation. He was deeply moved and saluted: "Thank you, Sect Master Cang Yu!"
With Sect Master Cangyu taking the lead, several other sect leaders stepped forward and expressed their willingness to help Shuihua Sect.
The leader of the Baisha Sect sneered disdainfully:
"Have you really thought it through? Even if we add you guys, yes, the remaining thirty sects of ours are like an ant trying to shake a tree! It's just a few more casualties!"
Kong Zhao's expression became increasingly gloomy. She knew very well that what the leader of Baisha Sect said was absolutely right.
