‘The Lingyun Sect’s actions this time had informed everyone in the Divine Phoenix Region that they were going to greatly raise the strength of their sect.
At this time, in the Shangguan Family located in Canglan Region.
“The Lingyun Sect has already begun to widely accept disciples?” Shangguan Li, who was sitting in the main seat, had a somber expression.
In the past few days, there had been quite some matters in the family that he had needed to deal with.
Now that the complicated matters had been dealt with, the only matter that was hanging in his heart was the matter of Shangguan Qingyun.
When Sima Zhen had returned to the family back then, he had reported the general situation to him.
The matter with Shangguan Qingyun had actually started to become somewhat troublesome.
“Lingyun Sect’s sect leader, oh, Lingyun Sect’s sect leader. You and I had no enmity, yet why did you have to come and provoke me?”
Even if it was just as Sima Zhen had said and the Lingyun Sect’s sect leader had already entered the Incarnation Realm, the Shangguan Family was definitely far more powerful than the Lingyun Sect.
It was just that compared to before, the matter had become much more troublesome.
Currently, the Shangguan Family wasn’t at peace either.
His action of snatching the title as the family head by force had attracted a lot of gossips.
“My Lord!” A man rushed into the hall, looking quite flustered.
“What is it now?” Shangguan Li was quite tired today and was not in the mood to yell at his useless subordinates.
“I, Ihave found out that the Lingyun Sect’s sect leader had not been in the sect these few days!”
“What?!” Hearing this, Shangguan Li slammed his hand on the table and stood up, “Why didn’t you inform me about this earlier?!”
The Lingyun Sect’s sect leader was not in the sect! This was a great opportunity!
“Thad only just found out about it. These few days…” The lackey’s face was full of panic, “These few days, the Lingyun Sect has just upgraded from a fifth-rank force to a fourth-rank force. During their sect trial, although the sect leader of the Lingyun Sect hadn’t personally made a move, he had been
watching all the time below the arena.”
‘What the lackey had said was indeed true.
After all, after a sect’s upgrade was completed, usually, the sect leader would arrange to take in disciples and hold feasts.
However, no one had expected that Jiang Yiming would actually set off to settle his disciple’s affairs right on the next morning after his sect’s upgrade.
Until yesterday, when the Lingyun Sect openly took in disciples, they hadn’t seen Jiang Yiming’s figure, so they speculated that the Lingyun Sect’s sect leader might not be in the sect!
“Such a thing! Bastard!” When Shangguan Li heard this, he was already filled with anger as he roared, “Well, what are you all standing around for? Go and bring Shangguan Qingyun back to me!”
“Yes, yes,” The few lackeys didn’t dare to say anything and quickly left.
They had been gathering intelligence about the Lingyun Sect.
Even though the Lingyun Sect’s sect leader wasn’t around, his few disciples were also quite powerful.
They were only in the Core Formation Realm, so if they were to go over by themselves, they might be courting death.
“Sigh, let’s bring a few Nascent Soul Realm cultivators with us. I really don’t know what to do,” After leaving Shangguan Li’s sight, the leader of the lackeys sighed.
They didn’t dare to tell the truth about the situation of the Lingyun Sect’s disciples.
If the “family head” knew about it, they were afraid that once he got angry, their lives would also be lost.
The others nodded and followed their leader to look for the Nascent Soul Realm cultivators in the sect.
They weren’t enough to invite the Incarnation Realm cultivators yet, but the matte should be a sure thing by bringing two Nascent Soul Realm cultivators with them.
After the group finished their discussion, they got up and headed for the Divine Phoenix Region.
Along the way, other than the two Nascent Soul Realm cultivators who remained calm and composed, the others in the Core Formation Realm were all worried.
“You guys are so cowardly!” When the two Nascent Soul Realm cultivators saw that the others were trembling, they jested.
“It’s just as you said. If the Lingyun Sect’s sect leader was in the sec, then we might be a little scared.”
The Core Formation Realm lackeys trembled as they raised their heads and said, “Hehe, yes, yes, yes, sir, you’re right!”
“Look at your pathetic appearance! To concede before a fight! You’re really embarrassing the Shangguan Family! All of you, chin up!” One of the Nascent Soul Realm cultivators said angrily, “A few disciples who’re only in the Core Formation Realm, and there’s not even a Nascent Soul Realm among them!
No matter how talented they are, it’s impossible for them to defeat us if we join forces!”
“Yes, yes, sir, you’re right…” The lackeys looked at each other in dismay.
After the Lingyun Sect’s selection on the next day had ended, most of the people had already dispersed.
The disciples stretched their backs.
They hadn’t gained much today.
Although many had come, they were all rather average.
Their Master wanted quality, not quantity, which also gave his disciples a headache.
Gu Lingfei stretched as he said, “Sigh! Why haven’t Master and junior brother returned yet!”
“Exactly! They’re really making us wait!”
Night had arrived when a few rays of light came from the sky and a few figures arrived, standing in the training ground before the Lingyun Sect’s disciples!
“Eh? Hi? We’re already done to…” Before Gu Lingfei could finish his sentence, the man in the lead waved his hand, and the slap was aimed directly at Gu Lingfei’s face!
Gu Lingfei was quite tired, to begin with, so even though he had hurriedly dodged, he was still hit by the spiritual energy.
“Who are you? ! How dare you behave atrociously in the Lingyun Sect?”
The disciples of the Lingyun Sect were furious.
They attacked together.
It seemed that these people were not good people at all.
They were here to challenge them!
“Humph! A bunch of rats! I advise you to put away your ridiculous moves!” The leader of the opponents easily blocked the attack.
“Stop talking nonsense! Come on!”
How could Gu Lingfei bear such a grievance?!
From the aura that the person in front of him was emitting, he could tell that the opponent was probably in the Nascent Soul Realm.
But it wasn’t like he hadn’t fought against someone in the Nascent Soul Realm before!
Since someone had come to find trouble, if they didn’t make a move and show the opponent their place, wouldn’t they be laughing stock if the matter were to spread?!
“Junior sister! Junior brother! You don’t have to make a move! Let me deal with this guy alone!”
The cultivation technique circulating in Gu Lingfei’s body was supported with a basic cultivation technique and an offensive-type cultivation technique.
On of that, he was at the peak of the Core Formation Realm!
So it wasn’t like he didn’t have the strength to challenge a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator!
“Oh? I had wondered how profound the Lingyun Sect was!” The opponent laughed, “It turns out you’re just a bunch of ignorant fools!”
“Don’t be rude!”
Huang Chaoyu and Ye Yunfan couldn’t stand it anymore and joined the battle.
The moment they exchanged moves, the invading Nascent Soul Realm cultivator that although the Lingyun Sect’s disciples could be considered to be outstanding, they were obviously not as strong as their Master.
At least their Master could make up for the difference in realms with some low-class techniques.
Shangguan Qingyun was in his residence just now.
‘When he heard the commotion on the training ground, h rushed out quickly.
Such a huge commotion shouldn’t be a simple spar!
