I Just Want to Cultivate Quietly and Farm

Chapter 476: Chapter 273: Unexpected Visitor

The visitor was a Deacon Disciple of the Profound Celestial Sword Sect, greeting Venerable Qingwei with a smile, and taking the opportunity to probe the source of intelligence. To uncover the mass production of Demon Armor by the Nine Demon Sect requires someone extraordinary.

”If you are asking for my source, I cannot disclose it, but I can assure you with my reputation that this information is absolutely accurate. I wonder, what results has your Sect gathered?” Venerable Qingwei politely declined, inquiring with concern.

The Deacon Disciple remained silent for a moment. According to the information provided by Venerable Qingwei, the Profound Celestial Sword Sect not only learned about the Nine Demon Sect’s trap but also that the ambush target was a Tier Six Refining Grandmaster, who was an exceptionally talented ’Sword Immortal Li’ with only Nascent Soul Realm cultivation.

”This matter is of great importance,” the Deacon Disciple said meaningfully, looking at Venerable Qingwei.

Venerable Qingwei shook his head apologetically.

”I truly apologize, I do not wish to offend that presence. Should I accidentally reveal something today and they no longer provide me with intelligence in the future, it would be a greater loss for the South Wilderness Spirit Realm. Moreover, with their methods, even your Profound Celestial Sword Sect must treat them with respect.”

Upon hearing these words, the Deacon Disciple could only leave helplessly.

Since Venerable Qingwei arrived, disciples came daily to inquire with the same question each time.

The Profound Celestial Sword Sect wanted to know the source of the intelligence.

The Nine Demon Sect’s plan had not even emerged yet and was exposed by this individual.

The Profound Celestial Sword Sect initiated this encirclement not due to trusting Venerable Qingwei’s reputation, but because his information precisely matched the intelligence obtained everywhere by the Sect.

Mutual verification confirms the Nine Demon Sect’s plan!

This past half-month, tracing the clues further, the actions of the Nine Demon Sect became clearer.

All these confirmed the authenticity of the information brought by Venerable Qingwei.

Looking back, the key figure who provided this critical intelligence, giving the Profound Celestial Sword Sect the right direction for exerting efforts, becomes extremely important.

Even if the cultivation were ordinary, the sheer insight is worth recruiting.

The Profound Celestial Sword Sect never worries about strength; their biggest challenge has always been dealing with intelligence.

More than half of the South Wilderness Spirit Realm’s intelligence is too complex.

Useful and useless information mixed together, wanting to grasp the key, grabbing the seed of turmoil, is like an impossible dream!

Even with the aid of a Spirit Treasure for divination, the Profound Celestial Sword Sect feels constrained.

A person like Li Mu, who can see the key plan of the Nine Demon Sect at a glance, causing the Nine Demon Sect to treat him seriously, risking exposure to set traps, is precisely the core member the Profound Celestial Sword Sect desires yet cannot obtain.

If they could get him, it would indeed be a great fortune for the Profound Celestial Sword Sect!

However, their continuous inquiries over half a month demonstrate their sincerity.

Unfortunately, their sincerity was directed at someone intent only on self-preservation, destined to be a fruitless effort.

...

Three days later, within the Profound Celestial Sword Sect.

An elderly man with white hair kneeled halfway in the great hall, reporting to the Sect Master busy handling affairs.

”Reporting to Sect Master, Steward Fang organized the people of the South Wilderness Spirit Realm to confront the Nine Demon Sect three days ago.”

”No significant matter, thus did not interrupt the Sect Master’s cultivation.”

The Sect Master slightly raised his eyes.

The Nine Demon Sect of the South Wilderness Spirit Realm?

With a sweep of his mind, numerous scrolls from the bookshelf at the back of the hall flew out, the Sect Master of the Profound Celestial Sword Sect glanced over them and then put them back.

He has already reviewed all intelligence regarding the Nine Demon Sect within the Profound Celestial Sword Sect.

”Indeed, not a significant matter.”

With the scale of the Profound Celestial Sword Sect, the Nine Demon Sect indeed cannot count for much.

”Has Venerable Qingwei been investigated?”

The old man slightly bowed his head.

”Investigated, he and Venerable Xuanling appeared in Desolate Ancient City recently. I suspect that man resides nearby, and have already instructed the Core Disciples to investigate specifically. Results are expected in a few days.”

The Sect Master of the Profound Celestial Sword Sect slightly nodded.

”If we can bring this person into our Profound Celestial Sword Sect, it would naturally be a good thing. But if not, then find a way to make him disappear.”

The Profound Celestial Sword Sect is not located in the South Wilderness Spirit Realm, but in Central State, a place rich in talents and many sects.

There are countless old rivals of the Profound Celestial Sword Sect.

Taiyi Sect is one of them.

Originally, the South Wilderness Spirit Realm sought aid from the Profound Celestial Sword Sect, yet Taiyi Sect sent an elder over, interfering with intentions to suppress the development of the Profound Celestial Sword Sect in the South Wilderness Spirit Realm.

This man can discern the Nine Demon Sect’s plan amid the abundant intelligence in the South Wilderness, his insight is extraordinary, even Taiyi Sect may harbor thoughts.

If unable to bring him into the Profound Celestial Sword Sect, then sever his chances of entering Taiyi Sect.

The old man nodded.

”I have already given instructions on this matter, they will act according to plan.”

The people of the South Wilderness Spirit Realm are advancing towards Desolate Ancient City with the thousand-strong army of the Profound Celestial Sword Sect. Even the styles of the Spirit Treasure Armor worn by the Sect disciples are completely unified, exuding a sense of slaughter and solemnity.

Where the army passes, the Cultivators of the South Wilderness cannot help but stop and look up.

”Is that the army of the Profound Celestial Sword Sect?”

”If one cannot enter the Profound Celestial Sword Sect in life, then one’s life is wasted!”

”A true man should be like this!”

...

The continuous conversations below fell entirely into the ears of the elder from Taiyi Sect sitting quietly within the Spiritual Ship.

Having heard this journey, he too could not help but feel.

”Who would’ve thought, moving a step slower back then allowed the Profound Celestial Sword Sect to become the first Sect of Central State. Over these hundreds of years, they even hold such prestige in the South Wilderness Spirit Realm.”

”Regretful indeed.”

With a long sigh, the elder from Taiyi Sect deeply mourned.

A step wrong back then led to missing out on so much.

A disciple accompanying him stepped forward and said.

”Master need not sigh, as the saying goes: ’A tree that stands out in the forest will surely be destroyed by the wind.’

”The Profound Celestial Sword Sect’s flamboyance also means that should they suffer a single defeat, they would lose the hearts of the people of the world.”
