After disappearing for ten years, the junior sister made the entire sect kneel down to welcome her.

Wen Heng's eyes were also unusually gloomy.

While others enjoyed smooth sailing and good fortune, he was plagued by misfortune.

However, he was different from his disciples who were quick to curse; he wasn't the type to engage in verbal sparring.

Since Luo Zhenhuan has become an obstacle in his path, he is determined to find a way to eliminate her.

Now that Yun Yao has ascended to immortality, his actions will be much easier to manage.

A plan gradually became clear in his mind, and Wen Heng's expression slowly calmed down.

He looked at the disciples and said in a light tone, "There's no need to be so resistant to doing things for her. As for the Eastern Continent Ghost Tide, those of you with higher cultivation levels in the Nascent Soul stage should probably go and take a trip there. After all, the sect belongs to everyone, not just Luo Huanzhen."

Upon hearing this, the disciples all expressed their indignation: "Why?"

"She treated us like this."

"Isn't it because we're not convinced by her? She simply removed all our names from the Enforcement Hall's register. Now we're all just ordinary inner disciples. This kind of dangerous mission is a matter of life and death; why should we do it for her?"

"Exactly. Senior Brother Wen, with her in this state, you still want us to listen to her and help her exorcise demons? Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Wen Heng led the group, talking as they walked.

The group has now left the crowded square and arrived at a quiet, deserted path.

He looked around again, making sure no one was spying on them or accidentally passing by, before turning to face the crowd.

"Instead of letting others exorcise the demon, we should take the initiative to follow them. Then, the success or failure of the exorcism will be in the control of us, the fellow disciples."

"Moreover, the cause of this ghost tide is unknown, and the Xuan Tian Sect is not the only major sect that went to expel it. There is even a major sect from the Central Continent, the Hun Yuan Sect. The spiritual energy in the Central Continent is more abundant than in the Eastern Continent. Most importantly, I have received a tip that a great secret realm in the Central Continent is about to open, and that secret realm is controlled by the Hun Yuan Sect."

"So I will go to the secret realm with you this time. I will step on Luo Huanzhen to show off my leadership skills, amaze everyone, befriend the Hunyuan Sect, and help the Xuantian Sect obtain the qualification to enter the Central Continent Secret Realm."

"At that time, even if Luo Zhen is the sect leader, she will not be able to overshadow my brilliance. I will slowly strip her of her sect leader authority, transfer all the Xuan Tian Sect's external influence and credibility to me, and make her a puppet sect leader in name only."

Even if the elders and some disciples of the Xuantian Sect approve of Luo Huanzhen as their sect leader, so what?

Once all the other sects outside recognize him, Wen Heng.

Then Luo Zhen's title of sect leader would be meaningless.

No matter how much everyone denies it, they cannot erase the fact that he is the one in charge of the Xuantian Sect.

Upon hearing this, the disciples following behind Wen Heng all showed expressions of admiration.

"Junior Brother Wen is truly intelligent."

"Once Junior Brother Wen gains real power as sect leader, we can return to our original positions."

"It's not just about going back; in the future, we, your fellow disciples, will also have a place among the masters of the peaks."

Wen Heng smiled slightly. "Of course."

These former top disciples of the Enforcement Hall were all fellow disciples he personally trained and who had received many benefits from him through his power.

That's why they treat him with such respect and support.

Among them, some, like his senior brother Lin Yichen, were once the pride of a certain generation of cultivators, while others were much older, two or three hundred years old, and had already reached the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul stage, just one step away from breaking through to the Divine Transformation stage.

Indeed, they have become candidates for the future peak master or newly promoted elder of the Xuantian Sect.

"We will always support Junior Brother Wen."

"Just wait and see Luo Huanzhen make a fool of himself."

"Haha, yes. We'll pretend to be the ones to go with her to the small country overrun by ghost hordes, and then leave her isolated and helpless there."

"Then we will go back today and take the initiative to submit a memorial to volunteer for the mission."

"Wonderful, wonderful."

The disciples had already begun to dream.

Luo was truly humiliated and ridiculed by everyone.

They might even suffer serious injuries.

Under Wen Heng's leadership, they joined forces with several major sects to properly resolve the ghost tide, then befriended the Hunyuan Sect to gain access to the Central Continent Secret Realm.

Upon returning to the sect, he was regarded as a triumphant hero by all the disciples.

He later married his beloved senior and junior sisters from the sect, reaching the pinnacle of his life.

……

"Achoo~"

Luo Huanzhen had already sat down and started working in the sect leader's hall when he suddenly sneezed loudly.

She rubbed her nose, her dark eyes filled with dissatisfaction and anger.

"Who is it that's been speaking ill of me behind my back?!"

She took the little flag off the top of her bag.

The demons inside the flag sensed a sudden change in the atmosphere of the world within it, and a large row of ellipses and question marks appeared above each of their heads: ...?

I'm innocent, my little darling.

They've been behaving themselves for so long, why are you still thinking about them?

Demon Lord, say something!

Banlan glanced at the tribesmen kneeling on the ground, praying to him with pitiful and aggrieved expressions, and coughed.

He sat up straight from the void and slowly spoke:

[You've offended many people in the sect, isn't it normal for them to speak ill of you?]

The sound was clear and crisp, like a mountain spring.

Luo Huanzhen, holding the small flag, suddenly realized something.

Makes sense.

That's fine.

So he stuck his little magic weapon on his head again.

However, when she looked up from her busy work, Luo Zhenhuan still felt a little dazed. She held her face in her hands and sighed heavily.

The first day after Master Yun Yao ascended to the upper realm.

I miss him.

"Sect Master, I have urgent business to report."

Just then, a disciple hurriedly walked in from outside the main hall.

Luo Huanzhen straightened her face.

After an incense stick had burned, the disciple who had given the report left.

"The Ghost Tide of the Moon Spirit Kingdom".

Luo Huanzhen muttered to himself.

The Ghost King is different from other demons; he is like a local overlord with countless underlings.

They are a very difficult opponent, and it is said that the entire Moon Spirit Kingdom is now shrouded in the shadow of evil spirits.

No wonder the King of Moon Spirit Kingdom sought help from more than ten sects.

but.

Isn't this just sending snacks to Luo Huanzhen's little flag?

Luo Huanzhen: "Little Flag, how much of your strength can be restored by the evil spirits of a nation?"

About 20%.

Luo Huanzhen frowned slightly. "Only 20%?"

Banlan chuckled lightly, her tone full of contempt and disdain.

[Even twenty percent of my strength is already at the pinnacle of this lower plane. If I had possessed that twenty percent back then, I wouldn't have been beaten... cough cough... labeled as just an average strongman by your aesthetically challenged master.]

When Luo Zhen heard the word "beat," his eyes widened in shock.

After hearing what followed, his expression returned to calm.

Banlan: That was close, I almost embarrassed myself.

Luo Huanzhen: That was close! I almost thought my pretty little flag had been smashed by Master.

but.

Two-tenths is already that strong.

Luo Huan rubbed his little hands together, a look of anticipation appearing on his chubby little face.

"Hehehe... Ghost Tide, how's that? Zhenzhen will take you out for a good meal."
