A Blood-Moving Realm has arrived in the world of The Return of the Condor Heroes.

Zhang Huai remained silent, simply watching Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu debate with the Quanzhen disciples.

In fact, given Zhang Huai's strength, he could have simply seized it by force, but he insisted on explaining the reasons.

After all, a reconciliation had just been reached with the Quanzhen sect members, and it would be inappropriate to resort to violence now.

"There is absolutely no room for negotiation on this matter! The techniques will never be passed on to anyone who is not my disciple!"

Qiu Chuji spoke with righteous indignation and resolutely refused.

"Oh?" Upon hearing this, Zhang Huai looked up at Qiu Chuji, his gaze deep and thoughtful.

Qiu Chuji felt a chill run down his spine and quickly looked away, not daring to meet his gaze. He knew that making eye contact with this guy was never a good thing, and he felt extremely uneasy.

"So, according to Master Qiu, as long as you are a disciple of the Quanzhen Sect, you can learn it?" Zhang Huai asked casually.

"That's natural..."

Qiu Chuji blurted out, but before he could finish speaking, he suddenly came to his senses, turned his head and slowly looked at Yang Guo beside him, his expression changing slightly.

A smug smile immediately appeared on Zhang Huai's face.

"Hahaha, Master Qiu is absolutely right. How can such a superior skill be easily passed on to outsiders?" He put down his teacup, stood up from his seat, and laughed loudly.

"Isn't this a coincidence?" Zhang Huai raised his hand and patted Yang Guo's shoulder, his tone somewhat teasing.

Yang Guo instantly understood his meaning, and immediately cupped his hands and bowed to the Quanzhen masters, saying:

"Disciple Yang Guo has met several esteemed masters."

Qiu Chuji and his companions were immediately dumbfounded.

Although Yang Guo was a disciple of the Quanzhen Sect, after he escaped from Chongyang Palace and joined the Ancient Tomb Sect, they no longer regarded him as a member of the sect.

However, since Guo Jing personally delivered him, they never formally expelled him from the sect. Logically speaking, Yang Guo could indeed be considered a disciple of the Quanzhen Sect.

But Zhang Huai was clearly taking advantage of a loophole. Even Yang Guo himself probably didn't think he was still a member of the Quanzhen Sect.

After all, what disciple would turn against their master, injure their patriarch, and incur such enmity with their fellow disciples?

Qiu Chuji and the others looked at each other, their expressions full of difficulty.

Zhang Huai stepped forward, his sharp gaze fixed on the group, and said in a deep voice:

"Master Qiu, my brother Yang Guo once studied under the Quanzhen School, but he encountered that beastly master Zhao Zhijing and suffered endless humiliation and abuse under his tutelage. In the end, he had no choice but to go to the Ancient Tomb Sect. Now that his grievances have been redressed, I think it is time for him to return to his roots and acknowledge his ancestors."

As he spoke, Zhang Huai approached step by step, his imposing aura forcing the already injured cultivators to retreat repeatedly.

The several masters exchanged glances, and finally, Wang Chuyi sighed softly and said:

"Senior Brother Qiu, things have come to this point, so let's agree. Yang Guo is already a member of our sect, so it's not unreasonable to pass on the teachings to him alone. It would be a way to fulfill Jing'er's trust."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Chuji sighed deeply and was about to respond when Zhang Huai suddenly interrupted him:

"Master Qiu, Brother Yang and I are like brothers, sharing joys and sorrows. We have long been sworn brothers, inseparable. In my opinion, I can also be considered half a member of the Quanzhen School. What do you think, Master Qiu?"

He drew out his last sentence slightly, his gaze fixed on the group, his tone exuding an undeniable authority.

Upon hearing this, the group felt a pang of bitterness in their hearts.

Judging from Zhang Huai's posture, if they dared to say a word against it, they would probably be devoured alive by him.

Zhang Huai: What do you mean? I, Zhang, have always won people over with virtue.

Qiu Chuji was filled with resentment, but he could only grit his teeth and reply, "Of course... it counts."

"Oh, right, and Miss Long." Zhang Huai changed the subject and turned to look at Little Dragon Girl.

After all, the biggest victim in this matter is Xiaolongnu. What does she think of the Quanzhen Sect? So Zhang Huai still needs to ask for her opinion.

Of course, Xiaolongnu had no objections; she never cared about etiquette or reputation. Now that her great revenge had been achieved, why wouldn't she take advantage of the opportunity to learn profound martial arts simply by virtue of a title?

Little Dragon Girl instantly understood his intention and nodded gently.

Zhang Huai understood and continued, "Miss Long is Yang Guo's master. Back then, Yang Guo suffered greatly from abuse, and it was she who took him in, shouldering the responsibilities that your Quanzhen Sect should have borne. She can be considered half a member of the Quanzhen Sect, right? Does anyone have any objections?"

After saying that, he looked at the people in front of him with a half-smile, his gaze carrying a hint of pressure.

Wang Chuyi closed his eyes, already understanding in his heart that Zhang Huai had come for the martial arts techniques hidden by the Quanzhen Sect, and regardless of whether they agreed or not, this man would do everything he could to get his hands on them.

Asking this question today is merely a formality, to save them some face and avoid gossip.

He couldn't help but admire Zhang Huai's meticulous mind at such a young age, coupled with his superb martial arts skills; he was destined for greatness.

Now, they had no other choice. What Wang Chuyi could think of, Qiu Chuji could naturally think of as well; they had no other option but to compromise.

Qiu Chuji finally spoke with a bitter expression: "Naturally... it is."

"Hahaha!" Zhang Huai laughed heartily, having achieved his goal. He then said, "Since that's the case, if one of us from the Quanzhen Sect, plus two and a half, passes on the technique to us, it won't be considered an outside transmission, right?"

The masters were speechless, unwilling to say another word, and replied with deathly pale faces, "Learning, of course you can learn."

His tone lacked any spirit or strength; he had completely lost the will and means to resist.

Faced with this young man whose strength and intellect far surpassed those of ordinary people, these people who had lived for decades were utterly powerless to resist.

"Success..." Qiu Chuji only managed to utter this one word before it seemed as if all his strength had been drained away, and his hands hanging at his sides trembled slightly.

"Haha, I knew that Master Qiu could distinguish right from wrong. Under your leadership, the Quanzhen Sect will surely get better and better." Zhang Huai was in a great mood after achieving his goal and did not hesitate to offer a few words of praise.

"Whatever makes you happy..." Wang Chuyi replied listlessly, his face long and his voice weak.

"Hey, old man, don't look so downcast."

Wang Chuyi: They don't even call him "Taoist Master" anymore?

Zhang Huai walked to Wang Chuyi's side, casually draped his arm over his shoulder, and said face to face, "Your agreement to accept the three of us isn't without any benefits."

Upon hearing this, Wang Chuyi's eyes were filled with doubt, and the gazes of the other masters also turned to Zhang Huai.

Zhang Huai continued, "Think about it, everyone. The three of us have unlimited potential in the future and will surely make a name for ourselves in the martial arts world."

Upon hearing this, the other masters all nodded in agreement. They had all witnessed the potential of Zhang Huai, Yang Guo, and Xiaolongnu.

"Therefore, we are now considered members of the Quanzhen Sect, and you may use us to spread your message to others in the future."

Moreover, the Quanzhen Sect is currently suffering from a severe shortage of disciples and manpower. With our reputation, recruiting disciples in the future will be a piece of cake.

"If you all work hard, the Quanzhen Sect will surely have a chance to regain its former glory and strength."

Upon hearing this, the group's eyes lit up. Zhang Huai's words, like the whispers of a devil, echoed repeatedly in their minds.

"Revitalize Quanzhen!"

These four words represent the shared aspiration of the Seven Masters of Quanzhen throughout their lives.

Thinking of this, a glimmer of light returned to their faces.
