Chapter 174 - A Hot Cake That Everyone Is Fighting For
Chapter 174: A Hot Cake That Everyone Is Fighting For
Originally, there was no need for so many people to be sacrificed, but they were too afraid of the black mist. If they reduced the number of people, they could reduce the burden of the array, which was why they did such a stupid thing.
As a result, some people organized themselves and formed gangs. The first ones to be thrown out were those with low cultivation levels, and some of them were even from their own sect.
In the end, everyone was numb to it. It was fine as long as they survived.
The elder asked in disbelief, “Even so, how could you–”
He didn’t know what words to use to describe the actions of this group of people.
“We had no choice. If we tried to stop them, we would be the ones being thrown out…”
The faces of the sect masters and elders of the major sects turned ashen. They almost fainted from anger because their own disciples were among these people.
To have such a scandal exposed in public, it would become a laughingstock.
“Slap!”
The sound of a slap resounded in the air.
The disciple was slapped to the ground. His teeth mixed with blood and foam were spat out. One could imagine how heavy the blow was.
“You evil creature! Our Infinity Sect has been known for a hundred years, but we’ve never seen anyone as cowardly as you. You’ve harmed your fellow sect members. Today, I’ll clean up the sect!”
In the end, he was still stopped by the others. After all, more than one person was doing this, and he couldn’t kill everyone.
The dead had already passed away, and leaving behind these people who were on their last breaths could also be considered as using the rest of their lives to wash away their sins.
Even if there was a reason for this, the sect probably wouldn’t dare to take in a person with such character.
After Shen Changling and the others learned of this, they sighed. If they didn’t leave with Ye Xuan, they would have become one of them.
No matter if it was the perpetrator or the victim, they would not have a good ending.
At this moment, they couldn’t help but rejoice at their initial decision.
Ye Xuan still didn’t know what was happening in the outside world. When the dust settled, he finally opened his eyes.
“Ye Xuan is awake!”
With a cry of surprise, more than a dozen pairs of eyes stared at him as if they were looking at some rare treasure. They were all the grand elders and sect masters of the major sects.
It was as if he had had a long dream. When he woke up, he felt refreshed and also advanced in rank.
The system’s notification tone rang out in his mind.
[Congratulations to the host for completing the mission of consuming 1000 filth removal pills.]
[Mission Reward: 10000 prodigal points]
[Congratulations to the host for successfully advancing. The system is currently upgrading.]
Ye Xuan’s awakening was like a signal, and everyone moved upon hearing the news, gathering in front of him.
“How do you feel, little friend? Are you feeling any discomfort? I have a sky rank pill here that can help you replenish your energy and focus your mind. It might be of some help to you.”
“A sky-rank pill like yours is nothing. You’re so petty. Why don’t you come to my Heaven Sect? We have a special hot spring for healing. It’s the most effective place to heal.”
It was said that there was a magical hot spring in the Heaven Sect. It was an ancient spring water that had been passed down to this day. Even though it was only a small pool, it had magical effects. Usually, it was like a treasure to them, and they were not willing to use even a drop.
Only people with the status of the grand elder or those who had made great contributions could use it. Normally, it would not be easily shown to others, let alone letting others take a soak. Yet, they were so generous today.
The sect leader of the Infinity Sect couldn’t help but smile sarcastically. “Forget it. It’s difficult to stuff an arm or leg in that small hot spring of yours. You should keep it and make your own tea.”
“We have a supreme-grade magic weapon here that can nourish the soul and temper the body. I’m sure our little friend will need them.”
In the past, these high and mighty sect masters and grand elders had their eyes on top of their heads, but they were so kind to a cultivator who had just stepped into the earth rank.
If news were to spread outside, it would definitely make many people’s jaws drop. However, this was the truth.
Ye Xuan was their disciples’ savior. If it wasn’t for him repelling the black mist and taking out the filth removal pill, even if they could open the secret realm in the end, there wouldn’t be many people alive.
If all these disciples were to die, it would be a huge blow to the entire sect. Not to mention how great the favor was, Ye Xuan’s performance in the secret realm alone was enough to attract attention.
Many people were determined to get him, wanting to take him under their wing.
Someone immediately went straight to the point and showed his greatest sincerity, “Elder Ye, I admire you very much. I wonder if you are interested in joining our sect. You can name your conditions.”
The others were not to be outdone either. “Elder Ye, as long as you come over, you can choose any position below the sect master!”
“I was the one who said it first. You can go and stay somewhere else.”
“What first come, first served? Elder Ye can go wherever he wants to go. It’s not your turn to point fingers here.”
The crowd almost started a fight over him, but in the end, Mo Jianming had to step in.
“To think you’re sect masters, what’s with all the noise! Our friend just went through a huge battle and just advanced, so he needs to rest now.”
When everyone heard this, they also felt that his words were quite reasonable. In addition, Mo Jianming was pressuring them, so they had no choice but to leave even if they didn’t want to.
After the people of the major sects left, only the people of the Seven Great Sects were left.
After all, they were different from the others. Even if they admired Ye Xuan, they didn’t show it as explicitly as the others before. Not to mention, there were a few people here who had some connections with Ye Xuan.
The people from the Misty Illusory Manor flicked their sleeves and left. Before they left, they even glared at Ye Xuan with hatred, clearly blaming him for Bai Haoyu’s death.
Among the people from the Seven Great Sects, only the Misty Illusory Manor had suffered the most losses. Bai Haoyu had died at Ye Xuan’s hands, and there were only a few disciples left alive.
Even if they wanted to take revenge, they had no way. They were even stopped by people from other sects, saying that there was a reason for this.
There was a reason for this!
Ye Xuan was simply abusing his power for personal revenge.
