Starting with Kengan beating up the Pirate King

Chapter 183 Zhongyuan Demon Extermination
Although he asked this question, Wugensheng, as the leader of Quanxing, naturally knew the temperament of these villains. They were evil, but many of them were more loyal than the disciples of prestigious sects, or rather, more concerned with saving face and hoping to maintain Quanxing's infamous reputation.

When seven people fell into the hands of the Sanyi Sect, the conflict between Li Muxuan and the Sanyi Sect became irrelevant. What mattered was that they had to regain their honor so as not to be looked down upon!
"It's strange, but that Immortal Daying seems to have truly become an immortal. No matter what those guys are planning to do, they always find him in advance."

"Yes, with over twenty of our Quanxing members already dead, the Strange Child and his group have already declared that we must teach the Sanyi Sect a lesson!"

“Those bastards deserve to die the most. They'll probably target the families of the Sanyi Sect disciples. Wugensheng, as the sect leader, aren't you going to do anything about it?”

Gao Gen sat opposite Wu Gengsheng with a grim expression, his fists clenched, as if he would beat Wu Gengsheng to death if he dared to say he didn't care.

Wugensheng had a headache and rubbed his forehead.

Whom do I care? The Quanxing Sect or the Sanyi Sect?
Who will listen to me?

This is not a good situation.

Why was that Great Ying Immortal able to strike so accurately before Quanxing could take any action, nipping all their schemes in the bud?

It's obvious why Wugensheng didn't even need to be guessed.

Five years ago, I was defeated by Guan Yi in one move and spent a month in the Tang Clan. The experience is still vivid in my mind.

If it weren't for the fact that all the Tang Clan experts were fighting with Guan Yi against the Japanese's number one superhuman, he probably wouldn't have had a chance to escape from the Tang Clan. He really didn't want to try Guan Yi's methods again.

However, if left unchecked, the situation might really spiral out of control, especially since those old monsters from Quanxing who have been keeping an eye on him won't easily let go of him, the nominal leader of Quanxing.

After thinking for a moment, he sighed and said, "Let's try to find Li Muxuan first."

Two weeks later, the conflict escalated.

The evil thugs of Quanxing went berserk and actually attacked the families of the Sanyi disciples, causing a few deaths and injuries. This forced the Sanyi sect to bring everyone back to the mountain gate, which was closed for a time. People were in a state of panic, and Zuo Ruotong dared not go down the mountain easily.

With the situation reaching this stalemate, many prestigious sects have heard about it and are preparing to intervene.

Wugensheng finally found Li Muxuan, only to find a trembling coward who begged for his help but dared not step forward to take responsibility.

"As expected... that's the only way to do it."

……

A few days later, Zuo Ruotong, who was stationed at the Sanyi Gate, received a letter.

In the letter, Wugensheng, as the leader of the Quanxing Sect, extended an invitation to the Daying Immortal to meet alone. The letter employed some provocative tactics, such as, "The dignified Daying Immortal surely doesn't even have the courage to meet with a junior like me alone?"

"If you're worried about being surrounded by traps, you can always invite other martial arts sects, such as Longhu Mountain, to help you."

After reading the letter, Zuo Ruotong handed it to Guan Yi, who had been staying on the mountain, and said, "As expected, everything is just as Chief Zhuge predicted. This ability to know the affairs of the world without ever leaving the mountain is truly as miraculous as Zhuge Liang's 'Longzhong Plan'."

“Our ancestor Zhuge Liang foresaw the affairs of the world, while I merely guessed a few things about Quanxing. How dare I compare myself to him?” Guan Yi said, “After so much chaos, the people in the mountains are filled with fear and unease. It’s time for this to end.”

"Yes, it's time to end this."

Zuo Ruotong shook her head: "If it weren't for Clan Chief Zhuge's divination this time, the casualties of my Sanyi Sect would have been countless. I have no way to repay this kindness. If this continues, and my fellow practitioners are troubled by my family's affairs, then the Sanyi Sect will have nowhere to turn."

"So, if you owe someone a favor, just owe me one." Guan Yi smiled and said, "As a fellow cultivator pursuing enlightenment and ascension, I can understand Sect Master Zuo's feelings and shouldn't interfere with your choice. But let's just say it's my selfishness. In my eyes, you are a rare 'True Person' in this world of supernatural beings. Even if the Sanyi Sect isn't a True Profound Sect, only under your leadership does it have a slight chance of becoming a True Profound Sect."

Zuo Ruotong smiled slightly: "Don't worry, Clan Chief Zhuge, my will to die has been extinguished. Since I cannot attain enlightenment through the Threefold Path, I am ultimately just an ordinary mortal, and my attachments to the human world are truly hard to let go of."

"I'll leave the Trinity Gate to you for now."

He got up and left to end it all.

July 15, 1939, the Ghost Festival.

With a straw in his mouth, Wugensheng climbed the mountain step by step, the one he had arranged to meet Zuo Ruotong.

Looking at the full moon in the sky, he muttered to himself with great unease, "I forgot to check the almanac when I made the appointment. Why did it have to be this kind of day? It's unlucky, very unlucky."

Will the Great Immortal of Daying come? Will things develop as I expect?

He lacked confidence and wasn't even sure if he could make it down the mountain alive. But this was the path he had chosen, and from the moment he became the leader of Quanxing Sect, he had guessed that he might get involved in this kind of trouble.

He has no regrets.

"Fuck——"

After reaching the summit, Wugensheng regretted his decision.

Before him stood Zhang Jingqing, the Celestial Master of Longhu Mountain, and two Taoist priests beside him who were staring at him with ill intent, a Wudang Taoist priest dressed in the robes of a sect leader, the head of the Huode Sect, the head of the Shangqing Sect, and the heads of the Lu and Lü families...

With fewer than thirty people, they formed a terrifying supergroup! Almost half of the most prominent figures in the world of supernatural beings were gathered here!
No, no, why would it come to this?!

I really didn't bring anyone with me, Immortal Daying! You, the dignified Master of the Three Ones Sect, do you need to show such importance to a junior like me and call so many people?!

"That's the leader of the Quanxing Sect?"

"Rootless, is that right?"

"I can't figure out his methods, but he's gained quite a reputation in the last two years."

"It seems there are no other Quanxing members here. Let's just kill him here and be done with it."

"Master, shall I do it?" Zhang Zhiwei leaned his face in front of Zhang Jingqing, only to be dismissed with a wave of his hand.

Wugensheng shrank back, looked at the main figure in the center of the crowd, the Great Ying Immortal Zuo Ruotong, raised his hand and laughed: "It seems that I really have no chance of escaping today, Sect Master Zuo. If you want to deal with me, you should draw a line first."

Upon hearing this, many seniors in the room narrowed their eyes slightly. Despite the situation, the leader of Quanxing Sect remained open-minded and relaxed, which showed that he was indeed extraordinary.

Then it's even more necessary for us to stay here!
Zuo Ruotong stepped forward, turned around and cupped his hands to the crowd, saying, "Thank you all for accepting my invitation to gather here. However, the reason I invited you all here today is not only to ask you to judge the struggle between my Sanyi and Quanxing, but also to have another important matter that I need you to witness."

"More than a month ago, with the help of Clan Chief Zhuge, I successfully broke through to the third level of the Reverse Rebirth Realm!"

"..."

"!!!"

Everyone was shocked. After a moment of surprise, someone instinctively cupped their hands and said, "Congratulations, Sect Leader Zuo..."

He paused mid-sentence, realizing something was amiss.

Having undergone three rebirths in reverse, shouldn't he ascend to immortality?
Zhang Jingqing and the others were shocked. Sure enough, they heard Zuo Ruotong say, "The Reverse Life Triple Level is not a path to the heavens. Our Sanyi Xuanmen is unworthy of the name. From this day forward, Sanyi will no longer be able to be mentioned alongside other Xuanmen. We will only be an ordinary sect of extraordinary people!"

"This……"

"how come……"

"I would like to ask all the extraordinary people under heaven to acknowledge the title of Xuanmen. Sanyi is unworthy of it." Zuo Ruotong said calmly as he turned around and looked at Wugensheng, who was surprised and quickly withdrew his attack. He said, "Sect Leader of Quanxing, if you survive ten of my attacks, I will let you go down the mountain. After tonight, Sanyi and Quanxing will cease hostilities."

"How about this arrangement?"

"After tonight?" Wugensheng breathed a sigh of relief: "We'll do as you say."

……

Sanyi Gate, below the mountain gate.

Guan Yi sat alone on the steps leading up the mountain, watching a group of strange people of all shapes and sizes, men and women, young and old, gather in front of him.

"Is this Mr. Zhuge? You are indeed here."

From the crowd, an old man with missing teeth and a lisp stepped forward, cupped his hands to Guan Yi and said, "Lu Er, one of the Four Ghosts of Quanxing, greets Clan Chief Zhuge."

"Fire Demon Jiang Shan greets Clan Chief Zhuge."

"The culprit Liu Susu..."

One after another, notorious thugs from the Quanxing gang stepped forward and introduced themselves to Guan Yi.

Lu Er, the Angry Ghost, chuckled and said, "When that brat Wugensheng had Granny Liu inform us, he said he would go to Zuo Ruotong to die, while we guys came to Sanyi to die with you. And we were right."

"Haha, this arrangement is fair, perfectly fair, just what we wanted!"

"This conflict with Sany is truly absurd, but once it begins, it's hard to stop; we're bound to have a showdown eventually. We had already guessed that our opponent wasn't just the Great Ying Immortal, but also you, Mr. Zhuge."

"If you can't get past this hurdle, there's no need for Quanxing to cause any more trouble for Sanyi. It will only create more chaos and make the Japanese laugh at you."

"Today, we, the Four Ghosts and Twelve Fiends of the Quanxing Sect, will lead our men to challenge you, the 'greatest sorcerer of a thousand years'! If we win, we ask you to withdraw from our struggle against Sanyi; if we lose, we are at your mercy!"

"it is good."

Guan Yi stood up and began the spell.

That night, in the presence of the leaders of various renowned sects, the Sanyi Sect withdrew from the ranks of the Xuanmen (mystical sects).

This night, later known in the world of supernatural beings as the "Night of the Mid-Autumn Festival Demon Extermination," saw nearly half of the notorious villains of the Quanxing sect fall victim to Guan Yi!

From then on, whenever people of Quanxing heard the name "Zhuge Yi," or even when Zhuge family sorcerers came, they would all retreat and dare not challenge his prowess.

Many who had impulsively joined the Quanxing Society quickly severed ties with it, and many notorious criminals also became more restrained, and some even joined the war effort out of fear!
