Cultivating In Secret Beside A Demoness

Chapter 1437: Why Behead Them? (2)

“Yes.” Yinsha nodded.

“Then, let them atone for their mistakes. There’s no need to send anyone else over. There’s not enough time, and it’s unnecessary to use them to kill anymore,” Baizhi said.

Those people, including Jiang Hao, were not simple. She wanted to use them but did not want to push too hard.

After all, they were the most suitable to deal with the River of Deathly Silence.

The sect could not have sent anyone better.

“Also, issue a decree to temporarily include the River of Deathly Silence within the sect’s territory. Any incidents will be thoroughly investigated,” Baizhi added.

Yinsha nodded.

Then, she felt a little worried.

“In a few days, the sect will stabilize somewhat, but these are internal troubles. We still have significant external threats. If we can’t resolve those…”

The consequences would be unimaginable.

This matter was beyond Yinsha’s ability, and even Baizhi had no solution.

She was the strongest besides the Sect Master, but against sects with strong foundations, there was nothing she could do.

The Heavenly Note Sect was a first-rate sect that had existed for only a hundred years.

In the face of the Great Era, the only reason the sect had survived was because of the Sect Master.

However, it was impossible for the Sect Master to protect the sect all the time.

They needed to find their own way of survival from the outside.

“It’s been more than half a year since the Law Enforcement Hall took the sect’s limited resources outside. They should be arriving soon.” Baizhi gazed into the distance.

More than half a year ago, she had sent people to the east.

They were to hasten their pace at all costs.

The one from Law Enforcement Hall had also become an immortal and had taken the Dharma treasure that the Sect Master had given her. She should have returned.

It was up to them to see if they could invite people from the immortal sect.

…

At the Bright Moon Sect, Xu Bai was reading something in the library.

He was also learning about that secret realm.

This secret realm was related to the Human Emperor, but only on the surface.

He said the contents inside were for those destined, and he was only helping to suppress it.

If true, the things inside were ancient.

But that was all the information available.

“Senior Brother, why aren’t you competing for it?” a woman asked curiously.

“Some things are not that important to me.” Xu Bai smiled.

Then, he looked at the woman and asked, “Did the Sect Master ask you to find me?”

“Yes, the Sect Master asked me to call you,” the woman in white said.

‘Oh?’ Xu Bai was puzzled.

The Sect Master would not call him for any reason.

If they had called for him, something important must have happened.

Was it related to Junior Sister Chu?

The Clear Sky School was troubled by Shang An, and the Bright Moon Sect was worried about Chu Jie.

The former was missing, and they were both very stubborn.

Chu Jie had not returned since she had gone out to gain experience.

Even after becoming a person of great luck, she ventured outside.

She had no intention of coming back at all.

In the Great Era, the sect was very worried, but they could not find her.

It was already difficult to trace the one with the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment, let alone someone with great luck.

Of course, the protection of the Bright Moon Sect was still there on her. Powerful individuals would not be able to find Chu Jie.

After leaving the library, Xu Bai arrived at the sect’s main hall.

If he was looking for Junior Sister Chu, then he would have to make a trip to the West.

She was not necessarily impossible to find.

In the Great Era, Chu Jie, who had become a person with great luck, must be about to become an immortal.

If it was before, she would have become an immortal in two hundred years.

A hundred years was probably enough.

In other words, she was about to reach his realm.

“The new waves push on the previous ones.” Xu Bai sighed in his heart.

After entering the hall, he looked at the person seated at the top and bowed respectfully. “Master!”

At that moment, there was a young man drinking wine and three people who were bound in the hall.

Xu Bai knew the name of one of them.

You Tian…

These were the three who were going to be sent away for interrogation.

After so long, they were finally leaving?

Where were they being sent?

And this…

Master Si Cheng?

When he saw the other party, Xu Bai knew that this matter was not simple.

He bowed to the other party.

“Don’t bow to me. Pack up and get ready to set off. The guests should be here soon,” Si Cheng said as he covered his wine gourd.

“Guests?” Xu Bai was truly puzzled.

Disciple Hao Yue said, “These guests come from afar, and should arrive today. To save time, we have gathered people in advance. You and your Master Si Cheng will go together.”

“Where are the guests from?” Xu Bai asked.

“Wait at the gate, and you’ll know. As part of this deal, Master Si Cheng will stay at their sect for a year. If we get what we want from these three, we can continue our cooperation.” Disciple Hao Yue smiled.

Xu Bai was quite surprised. What place required Master Si Cheng to visit personally?

Although he was called Master, he was no ordinary Master of the sect.

He was more like an old monster of the Bright Moon Sect.

“Consider it as running errands for your Master and gaining some experience outside,” Hao Yue said.

After a while, Xu Bai arrived at the sect’s door with many questions.

He stood there and waited.

After a while, a middle-aged man arrived with two people.

“Cheng Liu of the Heavenly Note Sect requests an audience with the Bright Moon Sect.” The middle-aged man bowed respectfully.

‘Heavenly Note Sect?’ Xu Bai looked at him and understood.

“We don’t have much time. Let’s talk on the way.”

As he spoke, Xu Bai’s robes fluttered in the wind.

He swept away Si Cheng, who was drinking, and all the people who came.

The Law Enforcement Hall’s Master wanted to say something, but Xu Bai interrupted him.

His voice was soft. “No worries. Take your time. I understand your purpose and am prepared. We’ll explain on the way.”

Disciple Cheng Liu looked at the person in front of him and finally understood the difference between a first-rate sect and an immortal sect.

Even a great sect seemed insignificant before an immortal sect.

…

In a city in the Hidden Cloud Prefecture, Xiao Li looked around in a sorry state.

Lin Zhi, Mu Yin, and Bing Qing also looked disheveled.

They looked around helplessly.

The spirit beast on Xiao Li’s shoulder said, “There’s food here, but not much.”

Xiao Li’s stomach was like a bottomless pit. She got hungry easily.

Ordinary families could not afford to feed someone like her.

They were out seeking treasure but got lost along the way. For nearly a month, they were either looking for food or earning money to buy food.

They had almost forgotten about treasure hunting.

Mu Yin suggested begging for alms.

But Xiao Li insisted that taking others’ things without cause must be repaid.

Besides, other people’s lives were hard enough. They did not have much to spare either.

It would be even worse if they forgot to return it.

The spirit beast said that all the people looked as though they would taste bitter.

These words silenced Mu Yin.

As a monk, was he too greedy?

Lin Zhi said nothing because he was always the first to get beaten.

The spirit beast looked at the city and said, “You’re not kids anymore. Heaven tasks great people with hardships. I have many friends, and they will help for my sake. But you will have to walk your own path sooner or later. Today’s mission is to earn enough silver and send enough food. But you must walk your own path. Today’s task is to earn enough silver to buy enough food. This is your training.”

“I’ll team up with Senior Sister Bing Qing,” said Xiao Li.

Mu Yin looked at Lin Zhi. In the end, he had to team up with him.

Bing Qing looked at her surroundings and felt a little lost.

She had never seen such a place before.

Or rather, she was focused on cultivation so much that she had never gone out to explore.

On the way, she saw many strange things.

Instinctively, she stopped in front of a hairpin stall.

She took a fancy to a hairpin with a rabbit design.

“Go away! Where did this beggar come from?” The stall owner immediately chased them away.

Bing Qing did not care about the attitude of the stall owner. She looked at her hand and noticed only a single copper coin.

“There’s roast chicken, look, Senior Sister Bing Qing!” Xiao Li exclaimed.

Bing Qing immediately turned around and followed.

However, on the way, she turned back to look at the hairpin again. She looked reluctant to leave.

At night, they were resting in a dilapidated temple outside the city.

Bing Qing was looking for firewood.

When she approached the ruined temple, she heard others talking inside.

They seemed happy.

But when she entered, the group around the fire stopped talking.

It was as if she, who was out of place, had broken the harmony between them.

Bing Qing lowered her head helplessly.

“I… I’ll go out and find some more firewood.”

She immediately put down the firewood and ran outside.

Just as she went out, they started talking happily again.

Bing Qing’s face darkened.

She felt lonely and helpless.
