When Xie Wenxuan saw Sheng Ning, it was as if he had seen a fellow villager, and his eyes welled up with tears.
He strode forward, shoved aside Xi Zhen who was blocking Sheng Ning's way, and pulled Sheng Ning into a tight embrace.
"Waaaaah, I've finally seen you again! I'm so glad! I almost thought I wouldn't make it out of the secret realm alive."
Caught between the two, Bai Ze said, "...Could you let go first?"
Xie Wenxuan completely ignored his words, which he had spoken through gritted teeth.
Ignoring the presence of Qin Chuan and the others, he recounted his experiences in the secret realm.
"You have no idea, the Taixu Sect is a complete jinx. I get to eat spiritual fruits when I follow you, but when I follow them, I just keep getting beaten up."
As he spoke, he loosened his arms from tightly holding Sheng Ning, reached down and pulled open her collar, revealing a bruise the size of a fingernail underneath.
"Look, look! I was almost killed by those monsters! I'm the top disciple of the Dingtian Sect!"
"Do you know how much damage that slap from the monster did to a child like me who's over a hundred years old?"
Xi Zhen, pushed aside, gritted his teeth and endured it.
It wasn't until he saw Xie Wenxuan pull open his perfectly intact clothes, revealing a small bruise underneath.
That was something he accidentally bumped into while trying to steal the inner core of a demon beast.
Xi Zhen could no longer tolerate it.
He gritted his teeth and stepped forward, about to speak, when Xie Wenxuan covered his face with his hand. "Say what you have to say later. It's impolite to interrupt people."
Xi Zhen: His mother...
Xie Wenxuan's expression changed drastically; he started crying again when facing Sheng Ning.
He pouted, and his wailing grew louder and louder, "I can let it go that I got slapped by a monster, but Qin Chuan almost died there, so I'm just okay with it."
“But her!” He pointed at Shi Yueyao, “She said she knew the exit of the secret realm, and led us astray, almost getting killed by other demonic beasts.”
"Fellow Daoist Sheng, I've sold myself to you, so you have to stand up for me!"
Sheng Ning's head throbbed from his howling.
Hearing him say that he had sold it to her, a vein throbbed on her forehead. "I didn't."
"Well, Sheng Ning, so it was you who sent this idiot to our side to sabotage our plans."
Even with his face covered, Xi Zhen could not hide the anger in Xie Wenxuan's eyes from his large hands.
They had been wondering how a fool like Xie Wenxuan could possibly find the entrance to the treasure cave.
Unexpectedly, he went in with Sheng Ning.
Did Sheng Ning know he was stupid, so she deliberately arranged for him to wait for them at the door to disrupt their plans?
A person was standing in the yard when a pot fell from the sky...
Sheng Ning took a deep breath and turned to look at Qin Chuan and the others. "He got lost on his own."
Xie Wenxuan paused in her sobbing, then said with a puzzled look, "Yes, Yu was shouting 'There's a ghost!' behind me, which scared me so much I didn't dare to move."
"Who knew you guys would run so fast? I couldn't find you, so I had no choice but to follow the Taixu Sect. And that's when my bad luck started."
“My master said I’m a fool with a fool’s luck. I’ve never been as unlucky in my life as I was in the secret realm.”
He choked up, but there wasn't a single tear on his face. "Fellow Daoist Sheng, you must seek justice for me."
Sheng Ning raised his hand and rubbed his throbbing head, saying, "Shall I give you another fifty spirit fruits?"
"make a deal!"
Taixu Sect members: ......
Sheng Ning and Bai Ze: ......
Yu Ye and the others also gave up their cultivation because the outside world was too noisy.
As soon as the five of them stepped out the door, they saw that the courtyard was bustling with activity.
Yu Ye looked Qin Chuan and the others up and down. It was the first time he had seen his personal disciples so disheveled. He curled his lips and asked them a question.
"Hey everyone, did you just come back from collecting trash?"
Su Daiyuan, however, immediately noticed Qin Chuan's cultivation level, "Nascent Soul stage?"
Before the Invincible Sect was wiped out in his previous life, Qin Chuan was always at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage.
I never imagined that Qin Chuan's cultivation speed would be so fast in this lifetime.
Presumably, these are a series of changes that occurred after their rebirth.
Previously, he was able to fight Qin Chuan.
Now that Qin Chuan has reached the Integration stage, a chasm has formed between the two of them, and it seems that he will not be able to defeat him in the short term.
Thinking that if Qin Chuan wanted to destroy the Invincible Sect right now, the chances of the brothers surviving in his hands were less than 50%.
His expression was stern. He looked up and met Qin Chuan's gaze. The overwhelming hatred in his eyes made the latter frown.
Guan Yunchuan was even more decisive than before.
He pulled out a Gatling gun and pointed it directly at Shi Yueyao, saying, "Shi Yueyao, prepare to die."
As he spoke, he had already pulled the trigger, and the bullet hurtled toward Shi Yueyao's face at an invisible speed.
In the blink of an eye, a protective shield suddenly appeared in front of Shi Yueyao.
The bullet struck the protective shield and instantly turned to dust.
It's Qin Chuan.
Guan Yunchuan's expression was cold and stern, and his gaze towards Qin Chuan was as if he were looking at a dead man. "Get out of the way!"
Qin Chuan didn't speak to him, but instead turned his gaze to Su Daiyuan, "Fellow Daoist Su, is the Invincible Sect declaring war on the Taixu Sect?"
Su Daiyuan's expression quickly darkened.
Just as Junior Sister said before, the Taixu Sect has a large and powerful force. Even if each of them spat, they could drown the Invincible Sect.
Now is not the best time to take action. Su Daiyuan raised his hand and lowered the muzzle of his gun, saying to Qin Chuan, "I dare not."
Shi Yueyao stood behind the protective shield, her back covered in a layer of cold sweat.
Fortunately, nothing happened.
She looked up and gave Qin Chuan a grateful smile, "Thank you, Senior Brother."
A soft voice rang out in the courtyard. Guan Yunchuan ground his teeth, about to fire again, when he heard Su Daiyuan's stern shout.
"Yun Chuan, calm down!"
Su Daiyuan remained calm and simply communicated with him telepathically.
Knowing that he couldn't cause trouble for the Invincible Sect right now, Guan Yunchuan had no choice but to put down the Gatling gun in his hand.
However, his gaze toward Shi Yueyao still carried a chilling, deathly intensity.
Three disciples from different sects stood in the small courtyard, which had been somewhat spacious not long ago but now felt cramped.
Sheng Ning put Bai Ze down from her arms. As soon as Bai Ze's feet touched the ground, Sheng Ning heard him speak in a childish voice, "I'm here."
What's coming?
She turned her head and saw a cloud of dust flying outside the courtyard.
One after another, intangible, gray-black spirits rushed towards this side.
"Delicious monk, delicious monk, delicious monk..."
"It's an evil spirit!"
As Xie Wenxuan's exclamation rang out overhead, Sheng Ning had already run to her senior brothers' side with Bai Ze in her arms.
She frowned and asked in a deep voice, "What's going on? Wasn't it said that the Taixu Sect was exorcising evil spirits in Youyun City? Why are they here?"
Yu Ye pursed his lips, his fingers flying behind his wide sleeves. "Who knows? Maybe it's like what Fellow Daoist Xie said."
He raised his eyelids and glanced at Shi Yueyao, "The Taixu Sect might be a jinx."
