Longevity Begins From Raising Disciples

Chapter 570: Chapter 285: Sulu Arrives; Master and Disciple Unbox

Speaking of this.

Xu Changfeng glanced at the other Foundation Establishment Cultivators from different families and wisely chose not to continue the conversation.

If only he and Chen Ye were here, he could gossip a bit.

But now, with so many eyes around, if his words reached that infamous figure, Xu Changfeng might not be able to escape the situation.

Bai Susu is notoriously difficult to deal with within the sect.

Back then, she even dared to deal a deadly hand against fellow True Inheritors, let alone him.

He coughed lightly and quickly steered the topic back on track, pointing to the deep pit:

”Back to the main point. Please look at the remnants of the array base. Such destructive power is definitely not something a Foundation Establishment can unleash. Yet it’s neither from a Golden Core True Man...”

The group of Foundation Establishment Cultivators exchanged solemn glances and discussed in low voices.

During this,

Zhiwei listened intently, suddenly her expression changed, and she transmitted a message to her master:

”Master, the grand array is ultimately a dead thing, and inevitably has loopholes. Even if the Lingyin’s Elder secretly restrains Crossing Emotions Golden Core True Man, what if it’s another sect’s cultivator involved?”

Zhiwei’s words struck the crux of Chen Ye’s concerns.

Conflicts between sects are not turn-based one-on-one battles.

Moreover, the Emotion Crossing Sect is part of the Demon Sect; would they really battle the Lingyin Sect fairly?

However,

After some consideration, he dismissed, ”If there truly was a Golden Core True Man at Moon Rhinoceros Lake District, how could you and I have smoothly slain Mei Suxin and then searched for clues here? I’m afraid all the Foundation Establishment Cultivators present would have been wiped out by that True Man.”

Zhiwei remained composed, unperturbed.

She calmly stated, ”Thus, they possess Golden Core level power, without a doubt, but must be subject to various restrictions; otherwise, the Emotion Crossing Sect would have long started a massacre... Besides, they can somewhat bypass the Moon Rhinoceros Lake array.”

Chen Ye looked at Zhiwei in surprise.

Clearly, Zhiwei already had thoughts of her own; he responded, ”Then, Zhiwei, what do you think?”

”Zhiwei believes it might be puppets from the Ten Thousand Puppet Sect... Even though Ten Thousand Puppet Sect harbors animosity towards Emotion Crossing Sect, Lingyin Sect separates them. The friction between Ten Thousand Puppet Sect and Emotion Crossing Sect surely isn’t as intense as between Lingyin Sect and Ten Thousand Puppet Sect. Perhaps, in the eyes of Ten Thousand Puppet Sect, Lingyin is the greatest threat. As the saying goes, ’distant allies, near enemies’. If Lingyin suffers a setback, why would Ten Thousand Puppet Sect not be pleased?”

Zhiwei’s words were shocking.

She thought the Emotion Crossing Sect would ally with the Ten Thousand Puppet Sect.

It surprisingly makes sense.

While Third Tier puppets might not be as powerful as actual Golden Core True Man, they can easily destroy the He Family, additionally explaining how they infiltrated Moon Rhinoceros Lake District, acting astoundingly.

Actually,

Lingyin Sect had previously considered Ten Thousand Puppet Sect’s involvement, hence suspecting Ji Family of sabotaging the array.

Chen Ye pondered, ”Yet, the Emotion Crossing Sect is part of the Demon Sect. Isn’t Ten Thousand Puppet Sect worried about being consumed by their own flames...”

If Lingyin was exterminated, the next target would likely be the Ten Thousand Puppet Sect.

The phrase ”Demon Path” attributed to the Emotion Crossing Sect is not mere empty talk.

”But Lingyin also has a blood feud with Myriad Puppets; without the Emotion Crossing Sect’s restraint, they would have settled scores with Ten Thousand Puppet Sect already,” Zhiwei calmly replied.

Years ago.

Bai Li and others died, with Ten Thousand Puppet Sect involved behind the scenes.

Chen Ye knew his disciple’s reasoning was sound.

If this were truly the case, then Lingyin Sect would face a deadly alliance of two powerful forces!

Now.

He was already closely tied with Lingyin, unable to escape.

Qing Jun was favored by the Xu Family, receiving their full cultivation.

And Sister Qingzhu shared a profound relationship with him.

As for his own foundation and familiar friends, they were all under Lingyin Sect’s jurisdiction.

Truly, one’s glory is everyone’s glory, one’s damage is everyone’s damage.

Under a collapsing nest, how can any egg remain intact?

”But this is ultimately just Zhiwei’s guess...”

Given the gravity of the matter, Chen Ye worried about missteps; he endured the headache and began seeking clues.

Yet, even as little Zhiwei perceived the issue clearly,

Xu Changfeng was naturally aware, furrowing his brow, remarked, ”Could it be the Ten Thousand Puppet Sect? Years ago, when Emotion Crossing was at its zenith, our sect joined forces with Ten Thousand Puppet Sect to eliminate demons at Moon Rhinoceros Lake. Ten Thousand Puppet Sect is not unfamiliar with Moon Rhinoceros Lake District; if they wanted to send puppets, it wouldn’t be hard for them.”

As these words fell, the discussions among all the Foundation Establishment Cultivators abruptly ceased, their faces changing.

Someone appeared as if in mourning.

Now, Moon Rhinoceros Lake District already had more than thirty Demon Cultivators, making things headache enough.

But behind these Demon Cultivators, there was actually involvement from the Ten Thousand Puppet Sect!

Just as everyone’s faces turned ashen, suddenly an immense pressure descended from the heavens!

”Who goes there?!” The Foundation Establishment Cultivator from the Li Family raised his head in shock.

Only to see above the sky, nine formidable streams of light tore through the clouds, rapidly approaching, landing steadily at the edge of the glazed pit.

Leading the group was someone with resplendent golden hair, a cold and proud face, and surrounded by countless Sword Qi, none other than Bai Susu who had been in seclusion for a long time!

On her left and right, each stood a young cultivator clad in Taoist robes embroidered with the White Dragon Soaring Cloud pattern.

Legend has it,

The founder of Lingyin Sect once glimpsed a White Dragon soaring at Lingyin Mountain, hence establishing the sect, and the White Dragon robe can only be worn by the sect’s elite True Disciples.

These two were likewise Spirit Hidden True Inheritance!

Behind Bai Susu were six other Foundation Establishment Cultivators with imposing auras.

These six cultivators were all Peak Masters of Lingyin Sect, with cultivation not inferior to Mei Suxin.

”Greetings, Junior Martial Uncle Bai (True Inheritor Bai)!” ”Greetings, all Peak Masters!”

Xu Changfeng and the cultivators quickly concealed their fear, stepped forward, and respectfully bowed.

Bai Susu seemed indifferent to their greetings, her gaze landed on the pit, a trace of coldness flashing in her eyes:

”Ha... The He Family is exterminated, and you arrived late; do you honestly think this True Inheritor doesn’t understand your intentions?”

As the words fell, even Xu Changfeng broke into a cold sweat.
