Chapter 78 No Wonder the Tianyan Sect is a Central State Sect, Truly Shameless!

Qingfeng Sect.

The Sect Master looked with a grave expression at the official order issued under the name of the Central State.

It was already a fact that Qingfeng Sect was implicated in the matter of the evil cultivators, as there was sufficient evidence.

How to handle the situation next was of utmost importance. A clean break was certainly necessary.

But if they were to follow the Central State’s order, stating that disciples like Shangguan Hong and Elder Li of the sect were involved in the Evil Spirit Sect’s affairs.

Then nearly half of Qingfeng Sect’s elders would have to be dealt with...

For Qingfeng Sect, this loss was also an unbearable pain.

However, this could be considered good news for now. It was said that Wind Sword Sect... had already scattered, with its ruins now sealed off by the Central State.

Although it was said to be sealed by the Central State, it was the Central State that ordered other sects to cooperate in the action, letting the Tianyan Sect’s disciples command this operation.

The actual people from the Central State would probably not arrive for a few more days.

Those two disciples from the Tianyan Sect had actually investigated this matter so thoroughly.

All the Wind Sword Sect disciples who had not yet escaped were probably now lining up for punishment, as a group of people waited to pry open their mouths and force them to confess if other sects were involved.

If they could get news that rival sects were also involved from this group, wouldn’t that be a pure profit?

After all, if the other side lost and you didn’t, then you’ve gained!

According to the news, Wind Sword Sect seemed to be a transit hub for resource collection, possessing information on whether other sects were involved.

At this moment, which of the nearby sects was not in a precarious state?

The fact that Qingfeng Sect was not thoroughly investigated was probably only because the Central State didn’t want the matter to blow up too much, as long as everyone could get by.

Some matters, if not put on the scale, are no heavier than a goose feather. But once they are on the scale, even a mountain is not so heavy.

The matter of the evil cultivators was just like this.

Sighing, the Sect Master put the order into his sleeve. Difficult as it was, it still had to be done.

He stood up and walked out, stepping through the door and glancing sideways at the main hall, which was being renovated.

Qingfeng Sect had really been plagued by misfortune recently.

However, for the Sect Master, it wasn’t all bad news.

At least that damned bastard, Zheng Xiaofeng, had really been taken away by the Tianyan Sect.

For those few days, not a single word that came out of that kid’s mouth was normal, and he would curse without regard for the occasion.

The prestige he had accumulated over many years was almost completely lost in just a few days.

Moreover, his actions were extremely arrogant. To be honest, if the people from the Tianyan Sect had not come in another two days, the Sect Master would have personally beheaded that kid.

That kid was lucky; the disciples from the Tianyan Sect kept their word.

Without Zheng Xiaofeng, the Sect Master felt much more comfortable mentally.

The Sect Master asked the foreman in charge of the renovation work, ”How many more days will it take to finish renovating the main hall?!”

The foreman was dumbfounded as he recalled the Qingfeng Sect’s main hall, which had initially been reduced to ruins.

He didn’t know what immortals were thinking, but in their eyes, this was generally called reconstruction.

The foreman answered cautiously, ”Even if we rush the construction, it will still take more than five months...”

”Five months?!” the Sect Master said with an angry expression, ”Add more people, add more money, just get it done for me as soon as possible!”

The foreman wanted to say that this wasn’t something that could be solved by just adding more people, but facing this Sect Master, he could only obediently nod in agreement...

”Hmm, looking around, your Qingfeng Sect’s architecture is truly unique, even beautiful.”

A familiar male voice came through.

The Qingfeng Sect Master’s gaze shot over, only to see the male disciple from the Tianyan Sect from the other day, looking around with a satisfied expression.

Now, only one thought was in the Sect Master’s mind—what damn rotten luck!

Although he knew he couldn’t blame the disciples guarding the mountain gate, since Chu Xingchen had only shown his face for a couple of days.

But the Sect Master still wanted to severely punish the disciple on duty today! How did they let this man in?

Mainly, when Chu Xingchen left, he was the one who had issued the harsh words. The Qingfeng Sect Master was already at a slight disadvantage when facing him.

Now that Qingfeng Sect was in real trouble, this person’s visit at this time was certainly not to bring any good news.

But no matter how much he disliked it, he had to receive him now.

The Sect Master reluctantly cupped his hands, ”May I ask your name, Daoist friend...”

”Eh!” Chu Xingchen raised his hand, the solid aura of his Nascent Soul stage rapidly revealing itself without restraint.

”Don’t call me Daoist friend. Call me Senior.”

The Qingfeng Sect Master: ”...”

As expected, this kid was even more annoying than Zheng Xiaofeng!

This also made the Qingfeng Sect Master decide on one thing—he would find a clever young man later to serve as the reception elder.

Receiving these people you couldn’t afford to offend always made him feel like a subordinate.

The Qingfeng Sect Master took a deep breath and continued to cup his hands, ”May I ask, Senior, for what purpose have you returned to Qingfeng Sect? Wasn’t Elder Zheng already taken away?”

Chu Xingchen looked at the main hall under construction, nodded in satisfaction, and then questioned:

”What? Is it so difficult for you to do a small favor for the Tianyan Sect?”

”Naturally, it’s not...”

”Good that it’s not!” Chu Xingchen quickly interrupted the Sect Master, ”There is something I would like to ask you to lend a hand with, to help me out.”

The Qingfeng Sect Master immediately became cautious. Could it be that he intended to interfere in the matter of Qingfeng Sect’s elders?

He asked carefully, ”May I ask what this matter is, Senior?”

Chu Xingchen replied, ”Build a house. You’ll front the money first, and you’ll provide the labor first.”

The scene fell slightly silent. Even the foreman looked at Chu Xingchen with an awkward expression...

This man was just short of saying the words ”get it for free.”

Not receiving the answer he wanted, Chu Xingchen looked at the Qingfeng Sect Master with dissatisfaction and said:

”What? Can’t even order around your Qingfeng Sect anymore?”

After a brief thought, the Qingfeng Sect Master replied, ”If the Tianyan Sect needs help, it is naturally our duty. However...”

Running a sect required accounting. The reconstruction of the main hall alone would cost a considerable amount, and the houses damaged by the falling mountain peak also needed repairs.

If there were too many vacancies among the elders, how many spirit stones would be needed to train Foundation Establishment disciples?

With so many matters, where didn’t they need to spend money?

This kid had too many schemes. If he agreed with his eyes closed and ended up being swindled out of a large sum, Qingfeng Sect would be in a difficult position.

”If you’re going to put it that way, then we can’t talk like this.” Chu Xingchen’s face showed dissatisfaction as his Nascent Soul pressure pressed slightly toward the Sect Master, and he said in a cold voice;

”Your Qingfeng Sect assisted evil cultivators in capturing people to mine and refine blood qi spirit stones...”

The Qingfeng Sect Master quickly interrupted, ”Wait... everything is negotiable.”

”Can you help now?”

”We can help, but could you wait until our main hall is renovated first?”

”Sect Master, in that case, let’s first discuss your Qingfeng Sect’s...”

The Sect Master suppressed his inner anger and interrupted through gritted teeth, ”The Tianyan Sect first!”

Chu Xingchen corrected him, ”What do you mean, Tianyan Sect? This has nothing to do with the Tianyan Sect! This is a personal request of mine.”

The Qingfeng Sect Master looked at Chu Xingchen speechlessly. How could a Central State sect be more shameless than their bunch of country folk?

No wonder they were so famous in the Central State, while Qingfeng Sect could only stay in a remote place.

Asking for a favor but not wanting to owe one.

Truly shameless, but when under someone else’s roof, you have to bow your head.

Forget it. This could be considered a transaction. Exchanging this for some elders being able to remain in Qingfeng Sect wasn’t a bad deal.

A forced smile appeared on the Qingfeng Sect Master’s aged face:

”Fine... consider it a matter handled for you, Senior.”
