How can simply creating a sect make you invincible?

Inside the main hall of the Ling family, the people in the hall had just finalized the matter of Canglan City.

A lithe figure strode quickly into the main hall.

The newcomer had white hair tied up in a crown and wore a plain robe. Although he was old, his eyes were bright and piercing. He was surrounded by a powerful aura of a Saint King. He was none other than Ling Cangxuan, the fourth ancestor of the Ling family!

Upon seeing this, all the elders of the Ling family inside the hall stood up solemnly, bowed, and clasped their hands in greeting.

Ling Jiuxiao also rose and bowed, speaking respectfully: "We greet the Fourth Ancestor."

The elders all echoed this sentiment.

"Oh! No need for formalities, please get up quickly."

Ling Cangxuan waved his hand, his tone casual and unpretentious, and walked calmly to an empty jade throne in the hall, where he sat down at will.

Once everyone was seated, the patriarch of the Ling family, seated at the head of the table, turned his gaze to Ling Cangxuan and spoke first, asking, "Fourth brother, what are the results of the investigation that Jiuxiao entrusted to you? What is the situation in Canglan City?"

Upon hearing this, the entire hall fell silent instantly, and all eyes turned to the Fourth Patriarch.

Ling Cangxuan abandoned his previous affable demeanor and replied truthfully, "Brother, the investigation results are as the Fu family said. The situation around Canglan City is now in chaos. Countless low-level demonic beasts are rampaging through the wilderness and forests, trampling towns and injuring countless mortals and low-level cultivators. The scope of the riots is still expanding."

The patriarch of the Ling family's gaze sharpened. After a moment of contemplation, he said, "Since it's true, let's proceed according to the plan we just discussed!"

He looked directly at Ling Cangxuan and ordered in a deep voice, "Fourth brother, this time you will lead a team of several elders to Canglan City to support the Fu family. In addition, select a group of eligible young men from the clan to accompany you. Take advantage of this chaos caused by demonic beasts to let them experience the battlefield firsthand, slay demonic beasts, and hone their skills, so that they can hone their character and combat prowess, and avoid being confined to the family's greenhouse and wasting their cultivation."

"Wow! Big brother, isn't it a bit too risky to bring the clan members along?" Ling Cangxuan asked, puzzled.

Upon hearing the Fourth Patriarch's words, Ling Jiuxiao immediately responded and explained the plan that had been discussed in the hall to the Fourth Patriarch.

Ling Cangxuan listened quietly, nodding slightly from time to time. When Ling Jiuxiao finished speaking, a look of approval flashed in his eyes: "Indeed, as Jiuxiao said, with the Myriad Laws Emperor Sect around, the demon race dares not start a war with our human race."

He looked up at Ling Jiuxiao and said, "Jiuxiao, there's no time to lose. Immediately select elders and arrange for them to go to the clan to choose members. Gather in the square in half an hour, and we'll set off immediately to aid Canglan!"

In the Eastern Region, within the Wanfa Sect.

On the viewing platform of Wanfa Peak, the Wudao Tea on the stone table exudes a rich aroma.

Xiao Ningyun, dressed in an elegant light-colored dress, carefully held the jade teapot in her small, delicate hands, appearing lively and well-behaved as she meticulously brewed the Enlightenment Tea.

Jin Xiao stood on her shoulder, and Lu Hou, who had just emerged from seclusion, lay beside her. At this moment, the violent pressure around it had subsided, its beastly eyes shone brightly, and a powerful and abundant peak Emperor-level spiritual power flowed within its body.

The man and the two beasts simultaneously raised their eyes, their gazes fixed on Lu Chen, who was sitting upright at the stone table, their eyes filled with undisguised anticipation and excitement.

Once the Enlightenment Tea was brewed, Xiao Ningyun quickly presented the warm jade cup to Lu Chen with both hands and said sweetly, "Master, please drink the tea. This is for you."

Lu Chen sat upright in the rocking chair. His gaze swept over his gluttonous and playful little apprentice, then looked at Lu Hou and Jin Xiao, who were lying obediently but were actually restless. A knowing smile flashed across his eyes.

Lu Chen smiled, seeing through the little ones' little schemes at a glance. He spoke slowly, his tone slightly teasing: "Yun'er, you've been unusually well-behaved today, coming to make tea for your teacher. Tell me! What little trick are you up to now?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ningyun quickly shook her head and retorted, "Master, Yun'er has always been very well-behaved!"

As she spoke, her eyes lit up, and she immediately pressed her advantage, saying, "Master, look! Little Hou has already emerged from seclusion! His cultivation has become incredibly powerful! Last time, Master clearly promised us that once Little Hou emerged from seclusion, we would be allowed to leave the sect to play!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Hou, who had been lying in wait nearby, immediately raised his head, his beastly eyes gleaming. Jin Xiao also nodded repeatedly, both beasts' eyes filled with eagerness.

Lu Chen looked at the three pairs of eyes—one person and two beasts—staring at him expectantly, their eyes filled with longing.

These three little guys have never been able to stay still. They've been spending this time in seclusion at the Myriad Laws Sect, and they've been cooped up for ages. Now that they're out of seclusion, they're naturally eager to go out and play.

Hua Ruoxi, standing to the side, couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle as she watched the heartwarming and amusing scene between the master and disciple.

She knew that Lu Chen always doted on Ning Yun, and that he probably couldn't resist his clever little apprentice.

Lu Chen's smile faded, and he slowly stated the rules: "Going out is allowed."

Before she finished speaking, Xiao Ningyun's eyes lit up instantly, and her face was full of smiles.

Lu Chen changed the subject: "But this time, it's not just the three of you kids who are going out to train."

He knew these three little guys all too well. If he let one person and two beasts roam the Xuanhuang Continent alone, given their unruly nature, they would probably turn the entire Xuanhuang Continent upside down and cause chaos within a few days.

Xiao Ningyun was only thinking about going out to play. Without the slightest hesitation, she immediately hugged Lu Chen's leg with a grin and said coquettishly, "Okay! As long as Master is willing to let us go out, we can take anyone! We'll do whatever Master says!"

Lu Chen affectionately raised his hand and gently rubbed Xiao Ningyun's head, his eyes filled with tenderness.

Immediately, a thought struck him, and two gentle voice transmissions instantly reached the ears of his two personal disciples: "Yun Zhi, Bing Li, come to see me immediately."

Immediately afterwards, he transmitted his voice to the eight peak masters, informing them that any of their disciples who wished to go to the Southern Region for training should come to Wanfa Peak immediately.

A moment later, two figures arrived, stepping through the air.

Upon seeing Lu Chen, the two bowed in unison, saying, "Disciple greets Master!"

"No need for such formalities."

Lu Chen waved his hand gently and said calmly, "I summoned you here to ask you something. Your second senior sister, Lu Hou, and Jin Xiao are preparing to go down the mountain for training. Would you two be willing to go with them and experience the journey?"

Ling Yunzhi and Han Bingli exchanged a glance, and a glint of light flashed in their eyes.

Having lived in their sects for a long time, they had been cultivating in seclusion every day, and had long desired to experience life and broaden their horizons through such trials.

Han Bingli, who was always aloof and composed, stepped forward first, cupped her hands, and replied in a deep voice, "Master, this disciple is willing! This disciple has been cultivating diligently in the sect for a long time and has long wanted to go down the mountain to experience the world, to hone my Dao heart and improve my cultivation."

"Master, your disciple is willing too!"

Ling Yunzhi followed closely behind, his tone firm and earnest, his eyes carrying a hint of seriousness and expectation that was barely perceptible.

Looking at their earnest expressions, Lu Chen's eyes showed a hint of approval: "Very good. Since you are determined to go, you will travel to the Southern Region for training this time."

As he finished speaking, his gaze fell on Ling Yunzhi, his tone gentle yet profound, revealing the obsession in his heart: "Yunzhi, I know that you have unresolved issues from your time in the Southern Region, and you still harbor obsessions. This trip to the Southern Region is both a trial and a chance for you to completely resolve past grievances. Only by resolving your obsessions can your Dao heart be perfected."

Hearing his master's words, Ling Yunzhi was slightly taken aback. His master had revealed the things that had been weighing on his heart. Ling Yunzhi's eyes welled up with tears. He bowed deeply and said in a sincere and solemn tone, "Disciple thanks Master for granting my request!"
