A Sect from a Spirit Vein

Chapter 454: Chapter 412: Intimidation

Jiang Qingfeng was taken aback, feeling very awkward, as indeed the Yunshan Sect currently had no extra Spirit Veins to accommodate the Spirit Talisman Sect.

To sow discord between the Spirit Talisman Sect and the Xuanguang Sect, and then using schemes such as framing, they successfully separated the Spirit Talisman Sect and exerted great effort to bring them out as a whole sect, yet had no plan for their next settlement.

What is Senior Brother Wang planning? Could it be that he intends to let the Spirit Talisman Sect fend for themselves? If they are left unattended, they would become a major threat within the territory.

Perhaps Senior Brother Wang hasn’t thought it through as well? Hence, it’s necessary to keep a close watch on them, restraining them within Lingsha City. Alas, Senior Brother Wang is really too impatient; if he waited until Junior Brother comes out of seclusion, surely there would be a better disposition plan.

She had no choice but to say with a stiff attitude, ”Sect Leader Yinn, Fellow Daoist Zhuang, after all, Spirit Vein is no trivial matter, and I cannot make the decision. Please, Fellow Daoists, bring your disciples to reside in Lingsha City first. After two more months, when our Sect Leader comes out of seclusion, he will surely arrange everything properly.”

However, Yinn Hongbo snorted coldly, ”It’s really ridiculous, using treacherous plots to trick us here, and now there’s nothing? Before our sect defected from the Xuanguang Sect, we at least had a high-level second-grade Spirit Vein and the territory of seven big counties. Now what?”

Zhuang Qing also said coldly, ”Before your sect gives us a satisfactory answer, our sect will not enter the city.”

Facing the cold demeanor of the two Foundation Establishments before her, Jiang Qingfeng just felt her momentum taken away and was momentarily speechless.

Suddenly, Wu Yan from behind her stepped forward, looking straight at Zhuang Qing and Yinn Hongbo, she said solemnly, ”You need to understand, rebelling against the Xuanguang Sect and abandoning Kongming Mountain, that was your own decision! My Yunshan Sect didn’t give you any promises!”

”Both sides are at war, and it’s all about using tactics. If you fell for the trick yourselves, who can you blame? Our sect has been able to assist you in getting out, that’s already a great boon, and you’re still asking for Spirit Veins? That’s quite presumptuous!”

Her words were so sharp, just barely shy of slapping the words ”you deserve it” on the face of the Spirit Talisman Sect!

Jiang Qingfeng and Lin Le were both taken aback, they never thought Wu Yan would say something like this. Zhuang Qing and Yinn Hongbo’s faces turned livid instantly, just as they were about to retort, Wu Yan sternly said, ”You need to understand the reality! Accept our sect’s arrangements obediently, and do not harbor any unrealistic expectations!”

With a whoosh, Spiritual Pressure erupted from Zhuang Qing and Yinn Hongbo. Reaching out, they grasped the Gold and Silver Brush in their hands. The disciples of the Spirit Talisman Sect were also furious, their Magical Artifacts burst out, creating a dazzling array of light.

”What a sharp-tongued little girl!” Yinn Hongbo exclaimed angrily, ”Our sect was framed into this situation by you, and you still have the face to talk about acceptance of arrangements? Don’t forget we are still enemies, not friends, and don’t think you can eat up our sect!”

Though the Spirit Talisman Sect had lost their Spirit Vein and territory, they still had two Foundation Establishments and about seventy disciples, making them a not insignificant force.

Meanwhile, Yunshan Sect’s Wang Yu was seriously injured, Lu Qian was in seclusion, and Yang Jiye was not present, so Zhuang Qing and Yinn Hongbo indeed had the confidence to make a disturbance.

But Wu Yan did not back down at all, under their shocked gazes, a hazy, dreamlike, unpredictable Spiritual Pressure surged up!

Those who had retreated earlier didn’t know that Wu Yan had already become a Foundation Establishment Feather Scholar!

Moreover, she had been hiding her cultivation all along. It’s unclear what Secret Technique this was, but neither of them had sensed anything.

”How is this possible! Even if you are a genius, you can’t—” Even Zhuang Qing’s eyes widened, questioning in disbelief.

”Have you never heard of the Innate Spirit Pill?” Wu Yan said expressionlessly, revealing the answer Lu Qian had long arranged for, ”Our Yunshan Sect, being favored by the heavens, stumbled upon some Spiritual Objects. What’s so strange about that?”

Lin Le stared blankly at Wu Yan’s back; he was, of course, the first to know of Wu Yan’s successful Foundation Establishment, but every time he saw her Spiritual Pressure rise and display her cultivation, he couldn’t help but feel his soul scatter, feeling an immense sense of melancholy.

It was previously just imagination, without much feeling. But when his beloved truly achieved Foundation Establishment, the Spiritual Pressure made even him tremble, as if the chasm between Foundation Establishment and Qi Cultivation naturally divided them into two different worlds.

As he watched Wu Yan’s back at this moment, Lin Le felt an immense pride but also a profound sadness.

This was just Foundation Establishment; what if Sister Yann achieved Golden Core in the future?

And Jiang Qingfeng, looking at Wu Yan shielding her from the front, though feeling a bit headachy over her overly strong and rigid demeanor, was genuinely happy for her from the bottom of her heart.

Wu Yan’s Foundation Establishment was completed under Wang Yu’s protection. Just after she reached Qi Cultivation Perfection, the opportunity for Foundation Establishment miraculously arrived instantly, and Wang Yu secretly took her out of the county for Foundation Establishment, the process went as smoothly as going on a leisurely trip.

Moreover, Wu Yan’s Foundation Establishment simultaneously triggered four top-tier phenomena!

The roar of tigers and the chant of dragons, rosy clouds wafting, a long rainbow chasing the sun, golden lotuses surging from the earth, not one of them missing!

When Lu Qian and Wang Yu achieved Foundation Establishment in the past, they only triggered two phenomena.

This child is destined to be a pillar of our Yunshan Sect.

Wang Yu said so, and since he achieved Foundation Establishment, having always been stern, rarely showing any warmth on his face, he exhibited a rare smile.

At this very moment, with swords drawn, Yinn Hongbo came to his senses and moved his wrist, about to draw a Talismanic Technique.

He actually didn’t care, wanting to directly capture the few people from the Yunshan Sect!

But in that instant, with a snap, his wrist was grasped by someone, and on his neck suddenly appeared a clear, transparent Flying Sword!

The one who held his wrist was Zhuang Qing, and he was just about to say ”don’t be impulsive,” when the Flying Sword resting on Yinn Hongbo’s neck rendered him speechless with shock.

The sharp blade pressed against the neck, the skin stung unbearably, the blood vessels and muscles constantly trembled and contracted, and Yinn Hongbo felt a coldness rushing straight to his Celestial Spirit, causing cold sweat to run down his spine instantly.

If Wu Yan desired, this strike could chop off Yinn Hongbo’s head!

Their gazes toward Wu Yan completely changed.

When did it happen? How was it done, why did their Foundation Establishment Divine Sense fail to detect any trace of the attack!

In that moment, they simultaneously recalled a person.

The deceased Elder of the Xuanguang Sect, Huanjian Peak Master, Hee Yangchen.

Although Wu Yan’s attack method in front of them was different from Hee Yangchen’s, such unpredictable and elusive attack means were truly terrifying.

Zhuang Qing’s voice suddenly softened, ”Fellow Daoist Wu, don’t be impulsive.”

However, Yinn Hongbo was unwilling to show weakness in front of his disciples, he growled, ”What skill is there in a sudden sneak attack. If I were prepared, how could you succeed?”

But his words, inevitably childish, not only did not regain any face, but appeared extremely ridiculous. Jiang Qingfeng shook her head in her heart; this Sect Leader Yinn, truly had no semblance of a Sect Leader.

The deterrent purpose had been achieved, so there was no need to actually fight with the Spirit Talisman Sect, else all prior efforts would be in vain?

Thinking of this, Jiang Qingfeng rounded off, ”Alright, our two sects actually have considerable connections, having once been close partners. Why must we meet with swords? Let’s talk things over, Little Yan, you should put away your weapon.”
