Enduring humiliation for three years, seizing the elixir, the treasure, and the holy maiden.

The next day...

At the foot of Yunjian Peak.

"Su Chen".

"I have just formed my Nascent Soul, and it is not yet fully stable."

"He should have gone into seclusion."

"You're asking me to go down the mountain with you now to support your family?"

"How dare you!"

Wang Mang said coldly at that moment.

"My dear nephew/niece."

"I'm not doing this to toughen you up, my true master..."

"No matter what, this can be considered as quelling the internal strife within the sect."

"You have now advanced to the Nascent Soul stage."

"I might become an elder of my sect before long."

"At that time, you will inevitably have to handle these matters within the sect."

"This can be considered a preview, isn't it...?"

Su Chen said leisurely at this moment.

Chen Shiqiang and Wang Yuyan, who were standing to the side, were both dumbfounded.

Aren't these two on bad terms?

It looks like two old friends are complaining to each other now.

What's going on?

Especially Wang Yuyan, who went to invite Wang Mang yesterday as Su Chen had instructed.

Wang Mang simply said he wouldn't go!

As a result, someone was waiting for me and Su Chen outside the door early this morning.

Su Chen never left his room.

I really don't understand how Su Chen managed to get Wang Mang under his control.

"snort."

Wang Mang snorted coldly and said nothing more.

Su Chen was amused.

"Let's go."

"Your martial uncle will be leading you all on some light exercise today."

A slight smile appeared on Su Chen's lips.

Chen Shiqiang was completely stunned.

Want to stretch your body?

Is this a move to take on the Crimson Cloud Sect?

What a joke.

The true lineage holders indeed hold a position equivalent to elders.

The Crimson Cloud Sect is not worth taking seriously at all.

The entire Crimson Cloud Sect couldn't produce a single cultivator whose cultivation level could compare to Su Chen and Wang Mang.

Even so.

Taking action against a subordinate sect could cause unrest.

It should be noted that a major sect has many affiliated sects.

Although they dare not openly oppose the sect.

But over the years, he has secretly engaged in many underhanded tactics.

This is something that everyone in the clan knows.

But to casually take action against a subordinate minor clan.

It's hard not to cause unrest among other minor factions.

When the time comes, these affiliated sects will unite and demand an explanation from the Luoyun Sect.

It's also a tricky matter.

Meanwhile, Wang Yuyan...

I was somewhat distracted the whole way.

I don't have the mind to think about these things right now.

Especially after hearing that the Crimson Cloud Sect might take action against Wang Chongshan this time.

I was already extremely anxious.

What's more, I've now heard that these people forcibly invited Wang Chongshan to the Crimson Cloud Sect.

It was said that a grand banquet was held to foster good relations between the two groups.

Ha ha!

Even a fool would know that this means Wang Chongshan is being held captive at the Chixia Sect.

They prepared to use coercion and inducement to force Wang Chongshan to make a decision.

...

Crimson Cloud Gate.

Located in the western mountain range of Luoyun Sect...

Speaking of all these affiliated sects...

The power of the Crimson Cloud Sect is indeed considerable.

With two Golden Core elders and the Golden Core sect master in charge, there are hundreds of disciples under their tutelage.

The Misty Rain Pavilion's limited resources were simply no match for it.

The main hall of the Crimson Cloud Gate was also exceptionally lively at this moment.

A banquet was in full swing.

Zhao Yuanqing, the leader of the Crimson Cloud Sect, was beaming with joy as he continuously toasted the guests around him.

Several sect leaders from affiliated sects were sitting below.

Meanwhile, Wang Chongshan, the master of Yanyu Pavilion, was sitting in the corner.

There are still several cultivators watching him closely behind him.

I wanted to sneak away to pee, but I didn't even have a chance...

Now Wang Chongshan has figured it out.

If we want to get through this ordeal.

We can only look at what our daughter has to say.

There's only one way now, and that's to wait for my true son-in-law to arrive.

Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't be able to get back to Yanyu Pavilion.

"Master Wang."

"Your Misty Rain Pavilion is getting thinner and thinner."

"Three spirit mines, supporting your entire family."

"In my opinion, it might be a bit strenuous?"

Zhao Yuanqing took a sip of the spiritual tea...

That sounds like concern.

In reality, every word is barbed.

On the one hand, it was to give Wang Chongshan a good scolding in front of everyone.

On the other hand, it was to put Wang Chongshan in a bad light.

I came here specifically for your spirit mines.

If you know what's good for you, you'd better hand it over right now.

"Sect Leader Zhao is joking."

"Although the Misty Rain Pavilion is small, it can still hold up."

Wang Chongshan gritted his teeth.

"Can you hold on?"

"hehe."

"Master Wang, let's speak frankly."

"Give two of your three spirit mines to my Crimson Cloud Sect."

"From now on, your Misty Rain Pavilion will be registered under the name of my Crimson Cloud Sect."

"I will protect you."

"It's better than you, a mere early-stage Golden Core cultivator, struggling to carry the load alone, isn't it?"

"This may not necessarily be a bad thing for your Misty Rain Pavilion."

These words were spoken.

The sect leaders all lowered their heads and drank their tea.

Wang Chongshan's face turned completely black.

Especially since none of the sect leaders present uttered a single word.

This already demonstrates that these individuals had long been secretly colluding with Zhao Yuanqing.

They've probably already discussed in private how to divide this spirit mine.

His three spirit mines were actually all small-scale spirit mines.

The annual production of spirit stones is not high.

Originally, it had no value to these old foxes.

But ironically, last time in that spirit mine, they actually mined a mid-grade spirit stone.

The value of this spirit ore also skyrocketed.

This news was leaked by several spirit mine miners.

And so, Zhao Yuanqing joined forces with several other affiliated sects to launch an attack on Yanyu Pavilion.

"Zhao Yuanqing!"

"Don't push your luck!"

"My Misty Rain Pavilion is, after all, an affiliated sect of the Falling Cloud Sect, just like you!"

"Furthermore, it formed a marriage alliance with a true disciple of the Luoyun Sect."

Wang Chongshan slammed his hand on the table...

"A marriage alliance?"

"Master Wang, you are mistaken!"

"Everyone in Qingzhou knows this."

"Your daughter, Wang Yuyan."

"Back in the day, he was already having an affair with Lu Feng of the Nine Heavens Sword Pavilion."

"Even that extremely yin body..."

"Tsk tsk tsk."

"This kind of woman has questionable morals."

"That Master Su is too busy complaining to even think about it."

"How could I possibly stand up for your Misty Rain Pavilion?"

That was an extremely harsh statement.

"You...you're spouting nonsense!"

Wang Chongshan was so angry that he trembled all over.

But at this moment, I don't know how to respond.

After all, even she herself wasn't sure what her precious son-in-law thought of her daughter.

"hehe!"

"Making false accusations?"

"It's possible that Master Su even wants to destroy your Misty Rain Pavilion himself, but he just hasn't had a reason to do so."

"Besides, your daughter is a lowly piece of trash."

"She's not even worthy to be my concubine."

"I suppose the true disciple wasn't doing this to protect the sect's reputation."

"If she were here, I would have kicked her out."

At that moment, a burst of laughter erupted in the hall.

Just so happens...

These words were overheard by Su Chen and his companions, who had just arrived.

Wang Chongshan was speechless after being rebuked in the inner hall, wishing he could disappear into the ground.

I don't know why.

Wang Yuyan had actually been prepared for these rumors long ago.

But now, hearing others speak so disparagingly of him in front of his father...

And his own father was angry because of his rudeness.

Instantly, tears streamed down my face uncontrollably.

...
