“It might not be as serious as you make it out to be,” Jun Luoying said, ignoring Jun Xianji’s exaggerated ramblings. She turned to Jun Qianren and asked, “Brother, what exactly happened?”
"I didn't see anything wrong with this matter at first. We had just arrived at the Zhou family's residence when the Zhou family's steward rushed in and reported that two disciples from Tongcheng had returned."
When the manager saw that we were there, he remembered to switch to telepathic communication to speak with Zhou Zhaonan.
Upon hearing the steward's words, Zhou Zhaonan's expression changed drastically. She then claimed that there was an emergency at home and sent someone to bring them back.
Jun Qianren finished speaking slowly and took out a storage ring in his hand: "In order to apologize to us, Zhou Zhaonan even forced Siam Ji to have one of these. It is full of spirit stones and spirit fruits."
“Then it seems that something really important has happened to the Zhou family.” Jun Luoying pondered for a moment and analyzed, “I heard that the Zhou family and the Dong Dan family offended the Dan Sect during the last Dan Sect’s grand celebration. The Dan Sect didn’t even allow the two families to participate in the seven-day grand celebration.”
Afterwards, the two main clans were very slow to react. Even after the seven-day celebration ended, neither clan came up with any effective solutions to repair their relationship with the Dan Sect.
Since both of their disciples returned from Tongcheng, it's most likely related to the Dan Sect again. Moreover, I suspect this matter seems much more serious than the last one.
"Auntie, are you saying that the Zhou family and the Dongdan family may have offended the Dan Sect to death?" Jun Xianji raised an eyebrow and quickly said, "Then we must sever ties with them, lest the Dan Sect think that we are in league with these two families and hold a grudge against us as well."
Jun Qiancheng originally agreed with Jun Xianji's opinion and wanted to leave Wu Yongcheng immediately.
Jun Luoying's eyes darted around as she began to make her own plans, and she said, "No, we can't follow in the footsteps of the Pill Sect."
"Why? What if we incur the wrath of the Pill Sect and they ban our pills as well?" Jun Xianji asked, puzzled.
"What if our families and the other families unite as one side?" Jun Luoying asked rhetorically.
This time, not only Jun Xianji was stunned, but even Jun Qiancheng was taken aback: "What do you want to do?"
"The way the Dan Sect has acted since it opened its gates is very strange. It has adopted an attitude of being above all other clans since the opening of its gates. Moreover, it has changed the usual practice of freely selling pills and directly restricted the number of times and the quantity of pills sold starting from fifty years ago."
In the past, if any tribe had a need, they could invite alchemists from the Dan Sect to their tribe's territory to specially refine one or more kinds of pills. Now, the Dan Sect has strictly forbidden alchemists from going down the mountain, so even if each tribe has the materials, they can no longer invite alchemists from the Dan Sect to go down the mountain.
If people want to use pills, they can only line up to buy them from the Pill Sect. Whether they can buy them, and how many they can buy, depends entirely on the Pill Sect's mood!
As Jun Luoying spoke of this, she recalled Ji Fengyao's bright and cheerful smile and the words "the lotus in the pond cannot compare to the clouds in the sky," and a wave of bitterness welled up in her heart.
Then I remembered what Chonghua said: the Black Owl of the Pill Sect was the reincarnation of Ling Qing, and Ji Fengming was the reincarnation of Yunxiao.
Ji Fengming and the current Yun Yao are siblings...
Jun Luoying's heart felt like it was being gnawed by ants and scratched by a cat, and she spoke through gritted teeth: "Apart from the Zhou family and the Dongdan family, who were excluded by the Danzong from the beginning, the Bishuizong, the Lan family, the Gu family, the Shangguan family, the Qu family, and even the Jin family, which has been wiped out, are actually quite dissatisfied with the Danzong's actions."
