Chapter 24: You Did Well, You Did Well

Qingshan Sect.

At this moment, Wanzhu was bowing respectfully in front of an old man with white eyebrows.

This old man with white eyebrows was the head of Qingshan Sect, the White-bearded Elder.

He looked old and frail, but his actual age might not be older than that of a young-looking cultivator.

A cultivator’s appearance is born from the heart; when your heart is young, your appearance will be young.

The old man with white beard appeared so aged because his state of mind was that of an “old man.”

At this moment, he was sitting on a chair, his eyelids drooping as he looked at Wanzhu, “Wanzhu, do you really think Tianyan Sect is worth your actions?”

Wanzhu had already told the old man with white beard all of Tianyan Sect’s demands, including the matter of voluntarily retreating to protect the disciples of Qingshan Sect.

“I think it’s worth it,” Wanzhu said in a deep voice, without raising his head, “But if the sect leader wants to punish me, I am willing to accept it, as my actions indeed brought disgrace to Qingshan Sect.”

“If I needed to punish you, I wouldn’t have gone to the authorities in Baicheng to withdraw the wanted order for that demoness,” the old man with white beard chuckled. He wasn’t actually angry at Wanzhu’s actions.

“I’m quite curious, how could the sect leader of Tianyan Sect force you into such a situation?” The old man with white beard stroked his beard and asked.

“If he were truly that powerful, Tianyan Sect wouldn’t have remained obscure until today.”

Wanzhu was silent at first, then he let out a long sigh. This was something he couldn’t understand either.

However, with the Three Pure Ones above, he absolutely believed his judgment was not wrong.

Wanzhu said with a stern face, “His cultivation is very low, only at the Foundation Establishment stage.”

The old man with white beard slightly raised his eyelids, the crow’s feet at the corners of his eyes moving as if something had awakened.

His robe moved without wind, giving the impression that he could strangle the person in front of him at any moment.

If Wanzhu couldn’t give the old man with white beard a reasonable explanation, he would likely suffer a heavy blow from him.

A group of Qingshan Sect disciples along with an elder were forced to retreat by someone at the Foundation Establishment stage. This was more than just a disgrace to Qingshan Sect.

This made the old man with white beard feel like he was being toyed with.

The strong have their pride. In Baicheng, the old man with white beard’s Nascent Soul stage cultivation was enough to look down on everyone.

He absolutely wouldn’t allow himself to be toyed with, no matter who it was.

“Sect leader, please calm down, I haven’t finished speaking,” Wanzhu felt immense pressure, estimating that if he didn’t continue, he would be severely injured by a slap.

But at this moment, Wanzhu had a very absurd thought, that the pressure brought by the old man with white beard was not as great as that from the demon in Youzhou.

However, he definitely couldn’t say such things, otherwise, the old man with white beard’s robe moving without wind would be the least of his worries.

“Although his cultivation is only at the Foundation Establishment stage, the sword in his hand is likely an unparalleled divine weapon,” Wanzhu said, “The pressure I felt was not from the demon himself, but from that sword.”

“I’m afraid that with that sword, he could kill all of us on the spot,” he said, sighing.

“Oh?” The old man with white beard’s robe suddenly fell, no longer floating.

Moreover, the old man with white beard resumed his kind and benevolent appearance, completely different from the person who wanted to severely injure Wanzhu with a slap just now, “I see, so it’s a divine weapon that allows a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator to slaughter those at the Core Formation stage.”

“That’s right, they’ve been dormant for so many years, but recently started to become active, likely because of this divine weapon,” Wanzhu thought for a moment and said.

He found that his reasoning just now seemed quite logical.

A demonic sect that had been in decline for over twenty years reappeared because they found an unparalleled divine weapon. There was nothing more reasonable than this.

No wonder they dared to shelter that blood-sucking demoness. With this divine weapon, even Core Formation stage cultivators couldn’t do anything to them.

It’s likely that the sword could give the demon leader of Tianyan Sect power equivalent to the Nascent Soul stage, and the strongest cultivator around Baicheng was only at the Nascent Soul stage, so his arrogance was not without reason.

“Wanzhu, do you think he deserves to wield that sword?” the old man with white beard suddenly asked.

“This… people from the demonic sect are naturally unworthy of using such divine weapons.” Wan Zhu hurriedly said, “If this divine weapon is used by the sect leader, I think in the area of Baicheng, you will be invincible.”

“Hehe, you’re exaggerating, Wan Zhu.” Although the white-bearded old man said so, the smile on his face could not be concealed.

“However, you have indeed made a great contribution this time.” He said, “A man of virtue cannot possess a jewel. This divine weapon should also change its owner.”

The white-bearded old man did not believe that a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator was qualified to use such a divine weapon. He was the one who was qualified.

“By the way, that little devil from Tianyan Sect said his disciple would come to the rookie competition, right?” The white-bearded old man had already added a “little” to He Youzhou’s title.

“Yes, he told us not to stop Tianyan Sect from participating in the competition. This is one of the conditions for him to let us go.” Wan Zhu said respectfully.

“Good, very good, you did well, Wan Zhu.” The white-bearded old man stroked his beard again, a trace of greed flashing in his eyes.

Since the disciple is coming to the competition, the master will naturally come to watch.

As long as that devil comes to Baicheng, after the rookie competition is over, he will catch him like a turtle in a jar.

Originally, he had no interest in the fights of these low-level cultivators, but now it was different. He was very interested in this rookie competition.

This rookie competition is really wonderful.

“Don’t tell other sects about this matter. You know, I know, that’s enough.” The white-bearded old man looked at Wan Zhu, the threat in his eyes was self-evident.

“I understand.” Wan Zhu was not a fool. He understood what the white-bearded old man wanted to do. “Sect leader, I will take my leave now. Rui Cai is injured, I want to go see him.”

“Go ahead, your love for your son is truly sincere.” The white-bearded old man laughed, “By the way, send someone to give Rui Cai some top-grade healing medicine. He suffered a lot in this expedition against Tianyan Sect.”

“Thank you, sect leader.” After thanking the white-bearded old man, Wan Zhu quickly left the place.

After Wan Zhu disappeared from his sight, the white-bearded old man couldn’t help but pull his beard a few times, “Divine weapon! Hahaha, divine weapon!”

A Foundation Establishment cultivator holding it could fight several levels higher, so if he, a Nascent Soul cultivator, got it, he would be invincible.

Qingshan Sect could no longer be content with being one of the top three sects in Baicheng. It was time to aim for the first place.
