They were flattered and said, "No, that won't do! We must do something, even if it's just within our power."

"That's right, senior, why don't you let them come with us to repair the sect?"

Li Yan couldn't help but chime in. He had high emotional intelligence and was willing to give these elves some dignity, so that they could at least feel more at ease staying here.

"Alright, do as you please, however you're comfortable."

"Fatty, take good care of the guests."

"There are still some flies down there, buzzing around. I'll go check them out."

Upon receiving the order, Li Yan nodded like a chick pecking at rice.

"Alright, don't worry, I won't dare to be negligent."

Will didn't say much, and politely bowed to the twelve elves.

Then, he walked slowly down to the first floor, amidst a cacophony of shouts that seemed to pile up like waves of spam.

"You brat surnamed Lu, go and report this immediately!"

"We've waited so long, when will this finally end?"

“If you don’t want to receive us, just say so. Why resort to such roundabout and humiliating tactics?”

“A beast is a beast, something inferior to humans. You treat them like honored guests, even breaking the rule of first come, first served. Don’t you find that ridiculous?”

In the area in front of the Scripture Pavilion, the martial artists from the Nine Departments and the Security Council, unable to control their fiery tempers, cursed and scolded. They had endured this for six days, but they were finally unable to contain their anger.

The faces of those high-ranking officials were calm yet tinged with anger, with veins bulging on their foreheads. Being ignored for so long and treated differently was an insult to their dignity.

"Gurgle!!!"

Suddenly, the gray mist that shrouded the pavilion slowly dissipated, revealing a tall and imposing figure.

He was a middle-aged man with blond hair, wearing a trench coat. His face was weathered, and his eyes were gloomy. The moment he appeared, he brought with him an extremely oppressive and ominous aura.

"A bunch of noisy monkeys."

"Say another word, and I'll turn you into specimens."

His plain words contained an undeniable domineering air.

"..."

Instantly.

The martial artist who was still shouting suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. The moment he met Will's gaze, he seemed to have encountered his natural enemy, his arrogance diminished sharply, and he dared not act rashly.

Even the other sword wielders and level 5 awakeners were no exception, treating it as a formidable enemy and their eyes were filled with vigilance.

The man who suddenly appeared was completely different from all the Trinity disciples on record.

If Lu Jin gave them the feeling of unparalleled power, then the Will in front of them made them feel genuinely terrified, as if they were locked onto by an inescapable death.

This was an unprecedented threat, and the body even succumbed to instinct, generating a strong will to survive.

Upon seeing Will's arrival, the two disciples at the gate immediately greeted him respectfully:

"senior."

"senior."

Will gestured for them to step back, then looked at the crowd and said in a cold tone:

"Get to the point, then get out of here."

“…”

The eyes of the dozen or so powerful figures were wide open, like copper bells, but they dared not speak out against their anger.

"Isn't your hospitality excessive?"

One of the officials spoke with a tone that was both joking and accusatory.

"Then get out now, you're not welcome here."

Will looked directly at the high-ranking official without any politeness.

“…”

The deterrent effect was excellent. The man held a grudge, but his expression remained unchanged. He simply ignored it and wisely shut his mouth.

Seeing that he was pretending to be deaf and dumb and stood still, Will repeated himself:

"You, get out of here right now."

"?!"

Now it was that person's turn to be stunned. Was this for real?

Before he could respond, a murderous aura swept over like a storm, the surrounding temperature plummeted by half, and a chilling atmosphere filled the air. The swordsman guarding this high-ranking official realized this was no joke and decisively shouted:

"it is good!"

"let's go."

After saying that, he dragged the person in charge away in a hurry, without lingering for a moment.

This bizarre scene sent chills down the spines of the dozen or so powerful figures. They were absolutely certain that the other party had truly intended to kill them, and that even a moment's delay would have resulted in bloodshed.

"Let's continue."

Will urged the presidents and Yuan Xiao.

"We have come here to invite Chairman Lu and Yu Huai, our old friends, to return and assume their positions. The Nine Provinces are currently threatened by giant beasts, war is raging, and alien creatures are rampant. We urgently need them to take charge and lead the overall situation."

When a high-ranking official said those words, his scalp tingled with embarrassment, his ears turned red, and he dared not look anyone in the eye.

"They're busy."

"You should find someone else. The matter is settled, you can leave now."

Will simply and bluntly refused, ordering them to leave immediately as if shooing away flies.

Chapter 407 What is a surprise? The Demonic Cult is Coming!

The lukewarm words were like a silent slap, viciously striking everyone's faces.

The Trinity Sect did not welcome them and did not even bother with perfunctory pleasantries, kicking them out after only a few minutes of conversation.

Moreover, based on their observations of the reactions of several disciples of the Three Ones Sect, this blond man's status within the sect is likely extremely high, possibly even second only to the sect leader.

Yuan Xiao's pupils contracted slightly, considering that various places were ravaged by war and trampled by giant beasts.

He had to withstand the pressure, his lips moving as he spoke in an incredulous tone:

"No time... How could that be?"

"Friend, please let us know that we really need to have a face-to-face meeting with some elderly people."

"Yes! Please."

The newly appointed Security Council President, Sun Feiyu, also pleaded earnestly.

Two years ago, he was the most outstanding professor at Yuzhuo University. After breaking through the genetic shackles and achieving Level 5 superpowers, he was transferred to the Security Council, where he made numerous outstanding contributions and participated in the war against the gods.

After Lu Jin resigned, he was chosen from five candidates to become the new president through a vote by the heads of the nine departments. However, he faced immense pressure as many special events were beyond his control.

With Yuan Xiao and Sun Feiyu taking the lead, other senior executives and accompanying personnel also complained about how difficult things were outside, how dire the situation was, and tried to persuade them with emotion and reason.

Will remained unmoved, as indifferent as a machine that only executes programmed instructions, and his next words shattered everyone's illusions once again.

"talk?"

"What to talk about?"

"How can you talk about how you used morality, righteousness, and friendship to bind us, making us continue to be your slaves, fighting and dying on the front lines against monsters?"

He posed three rhetorical questions in quick succession, his voice calm but revealing his anger, leaving everyone speechless.

"But......"

Someone hesitated, unsettled by Will's gaze, and swallowed the rest of their words.

"But your lives matter, and their lives don't?"

"Or are you saying that you've used them as tools from the very beginning?"

"When you need them, you remember them and use every word to please them; when you don't need them, they are just pawns to be discarded at will. You can say with a clear conscience that you are doing this for the greater good, and no one can refute you."

Will slowly descended the steps, surrounded by a thin gray mist, dangerous and sinister, as if it were the embodiment of a curse, his aura like an abyss, encroaching on the surroundings.

Alarm bells rang in everyone's hearts, especially those awakened individuals who were close by; their legs trembled, and they couldn't help but back away.

"You are afraid of the retaliation from the four sects and the suppression from the Flying Immortal Sect, and you are willing to be a coward who turns a deaf ear. This is your freedom and your choice."

"But I am, after all, half a teacher to them. Isn't it going too far to bully my students like this?"

As he spoke, Will walked up to a martial artist. The man looked terrified and was unable to move. He was firmly restrained by a mysterious force and could only watch helplessly as those long, pale fingers locked his throat and lifted him up.

"boom!"

A sudden whooshing sound rang out, a gust of wind whipped everyone's hair into disarray, and afterimages of cannonballs leaving the barrel flew dozens of meters away.

The martial artist, having survived the ordeal, clutched his throat and coughed violently, his eyes filled with panic. The flesh in his throat was severely deformed from being twisted.

The dozens of people inside the gate, upon hearing Will's rebuttal, finally realized his background and couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts. He was actually the teacher of Lu Jin, Yu Huai, and others? He was probably not even of the same generation as Xuan Zun!

Everyone was filled with despair. What were they doing? They actually wanted to take away a teacher's junior in front of him.

"The four sects have not yet settled their grudges with our sect, and we do not need your help in our time of need."

"Solve your own problems. If you bother me again, you will be responsible for your own life and death."

Will was so engrossed in his research that he had long forgotten how long it had been since he had last killed anyone. It was only now that he was more easygoing; in his younger days, none of those noisy monkeys would have made it out of the mountain alive.

But at this moment, his patience had also run out.

"roll!--"

The piercing sound, like a thunderclap, forcefully shattered everyone's eardrums, causing faint traces of blood to flow and excruciating pain.

"We apologize for the inconvenience caused, senior. We will now depart."

The presidents and leaders were terrified, their hearts pounding so hard they felt like they were going to burst out of their chests. Their previous anger had completely vanished, and they hurriedly led everyone away.

"hiss....."

Upstairs, Li Yan peeked out with his round head, stealing glances. He couldn't help but gasp, thrilled and inwardly exclaiming how exhilarating it was.

He hadn't expected the old man to be so domineering; his cunning eyes gleamed with admiration.

Hey, that's right!

After the high-ranking members of the Security Council and the Nine Departments left, the twelve elven descendants stayed temporarily inside the gate, helping to repair the walls, fetch water, and chop wood. The sect returned to its former tranquility.

At the end of the month, another war broke out. Several extraordinary creatures located in the northern frontier could no longer tolerate the hunting by the Duchen Sect, the Kunlun Ancient Sect, and Penglai Island. They joined forces and led 100,000 elite beasts to attack the dojos of their neighboring cities, resulting in a bloody battle that lasted for over a hundred kilometers.

The surrounding cities were riddled with holes and filled with smoke and dust. Powerful figures from the Nine Departments and the Security Council also joined the battle, attacking the center from the edge of the battlefield, slaying rare beasts, and even fighting fiercely with the demon generals under the command of extraordinary beings. However, the results were not satisfactory.

From May 27th to 30th, a three-way battle raged, with rivers of blood flowing and countless people killed or wounded.

Finally, the leader of the Duchen Sect was seriously injured but was able to escape with the help of his disciples; the Kunlun Ancient Sect defended its dojo to the death, losing four elders and dozens of elite disciples; Penglai Island, located inland and thousands of miles away from its main camp, could not receive timely reinforcements and was almost completely wiped out.

Meanwhile, the Security Council and the Nine Departments lost 72 Level 4 Awakened and 6 Level 5 Awakened, obtained the necessary beast essence blood, and even intercepted several complete pill cores, but lacked the ability to clean up the mess and were forced to withdraw from the battlefield.

On the 31st, three extraordinary creatures—the Evil Ring, the Nine-Tailed Fox, and the Zhujian—stood atop human corpses and rotten flesh, standing tall and defiant, their ferocity overwhelming, proclaiming their victory.

Their hysterical roars echoed across the vast plains, stirring up towering waves in the sea of ​​clouds, seemingly shaking the stars in the sky and intimidating all living beings.

After that, the tentacles of the three demon kingdoms expanded into human territory with impunity, causing frequent conflicts. Undeterred by artillery fire, they seized territory and destroyed town after town along the way.

In June, wars became increasingly frequent in various regions, and the nine ministries and the Security Council within the country suffered repeated defeats.

The number of demons in the four seas and eight wastelands is countless. The Flying Immortal Sect Master is still seriously injured and can only protect a very limited number of cities. However, the support of millions of incense offerings has caused his cultivation level to increase by nearly half.

The followers of the former Sanyi Sect almost all defected to the Feixian Sect, and other Jianghu sects also fell into decline, becoming as insignificant as fireflies compared to the Feixian Sect.

In this great era of spiritual energy revival, the Flying Immortal Sect Leader, disregarding the advice of the sect elders and overcoming all opposition, passed on a genuine cultivation manual—the *Spiritual Revelation Scripture, Volume One*—to all the humans of the Nine Provinces and to the foreign peoples overseas.

Although it is a basic course for beginners, it contains hundreds of wonderful techniques, twelve methods for body strengthening, muscle and bone health, and enlightenment.

There are no strict requirements for physique or talent. If one has enough perseverance and cultivates to perfection, one can have combat power no weaker than a level 4 awakened person.

Afterwards, the Flying Immortal Sect Leader proclaimed to the world that if any cultivators were to devote themselves to cultivation and reach the pinnacle of their practice, they could go to the Flying Immortal Dojo and seek out any elder to obtain the "Spiritual Revelation Scripture, Middle Volume".
