Could a Cripple Like Him Be Sect Master?

At this point, City of Dark Moon was completely under the control of the Great Sage.

However, just as everyone was looking at the Great Sage with fear, the Great Sage found Chu Xinghe with a look of self-reproach.

"Holy One... I have disappointed you... I have lost too much of my cultivation. This old man, a mere cripple, actually let such a little brat escape... I truly am a useless piece of trash!"

A group of the Dark Moon Clan members also sighed and lamented...

Our Dark Moon Clan is truly ruined. Even our strongest Great Sage has been crippled to this extent. We are simply a useless clan.

If this were in the past, once the Great Sage activated his Dark Moon Formation, it would instantly cover hundreds of miles... Forget about escaping, if you could even move, it would be a loss for our Great Sage.

But just now, look at the Great Sage's Dark Moon Formation. It took him a whole slap to slap a wandering ghost. In the past, when Mara crawled out with just one hand, that wandering ghost would have been scared out of its wits.

The Great Sage Holy One, looking remorseful, said, "Saint, I am a useless man. I have disappointed you. I actually let that Tantai Jing escape... I shouldn't have activated the Dark Moon Formation just now."

I should have immediately activated the self-destruct function as soon as I came in...

Upon hearing the Great Sage's words, Chu Xinghe burst into tears...

Um... do you guys want to listen to what the hell you're saying?

So... Martial Emperor was considered a useless person in your time?

Have you considered that this era is no longer your era?

Is it really okay for you to make sweeping generalizations?

As for self-destruction... Chu Xinghe solemnly instructed the Great Sage that unless given a direct order, self-destruction was strictly forbidden.

Good grief, if you had just self-destructed without a word, I don't know if Tantai Jing be dead or not... but Zheng Yu probably wouldn't even have a complete corpse left by now.

The situation was somewhat out of control, especially for Zheng Yu, who witnessed everything and was completely stunned.

Who the hell has ever seen a Peak Martial Emperor declare himself a cripple without a second thought?

Have I, Zheng Yu, transmigrated? Is this really the Blazing Sun Continent?

As everyone gradually woke up, groups of people came to Chu Xinghe to express their gratitude.

Some of them entered City of Dark Moon because they were greedy for money, while others were captured by Tantai Jing. But no matter what, without Senior Brother Xinghe, they would have certainly not escaped death.

After all, Tantai Jing's control of City of Dark Moon meant he was the sole ruler of these ruins.

As for the Great Sage who kept muttering to himself that he was a useless person, no one dared to ask who he really was.

Chu Xinghe accepted everyone's thanks with a blank expression, and then comforted the Great Sage and the ancestors of the Dark Moon Clan on the spot.

You Dark Moon Clan are always talking about Versailles at the drop of a hat. Are you the Dark Moon Clan or the Versailles Clan?

After comforting the Dark Moon Clan, Chu Xinghe also found the treasure vault of City of Dark Moon.

The dazzling array of rare treasures and spirit stones made Chu Xinghe's eyes almost bulge out...

They immediately declared that we all had to share it!

However, everyone's expression changed drastically when Senior Brother Xinghe asked them to loot the bag together.

Senior Brother Xinghe, are you trying to humiliate us by saying that?

We almost lost our lives entering City of Dark Moon; it was Senior Brother Xinghe who saved everyone, and now you want us to share the treasure?

We're on the righteous path... we also have our pride... if we really take these treasures, how will we survive after we leave this world?

Zheng Yu was the first to speak out.

"Senior Brother Xinghe is unparalleled in his benevolence and righteousness, but my Martial Emperor City will never accept even a single one of these treasures. Senior Brother Xinghe, you don't need to say anything more!"

"That's right! Senior Brother Zheng Yu is right. If it weren't for Senior Brother Xinghe, we would probably have been killed by Tantai Jing. What face would we have to ask for treasures then?"

A group of people took turns saying that we must act like human beings, and we absolutely cannot accept any rare treasures; otherwise, would we still be human?

Chu Xinghe's eyes were brimming with tears... You guys have to have some decency...

Can't you guys share even a little bit of the burden with Senior Brother Xinghe? Are you even human?

None of the righteous sects even glanced at the treasure vault, and some even offered to give some spirit stones to thank Senior Brother Xinghe for saving their lives.

Fortunately, Zheng Yu showed some decency this time, pointing at the person who offered spirit stones as thanks and saying, "Are you insulting our Senior Brother Xinghe?"

Is Senior Brother Xinghe the kind of person who cares about spirit stones?

It was precisely because of Zheng Yu's words that everyone was finally able to refrain from thanking Chu Xinghe with spirit stones.

After a short rest, everyone had recovered, and Zheng Yu brought the people from Martial Emperor City to say goodbye.

Chu Xinghe calmly saw Zheng Yu off, and the others followed suit.

If you can leave, then leave. What's the meaning of all of you saying that if there are similar ruins in the future, as long as Senior Brother Xinghe, we will definitely let him choose first?

I'm never going to visit these ruins again!

After everyone had left, the Great Sage waved the Full Moon Scepter in his hand, and the entire City of Dark Moon rose into the air, finally transforming into a stream of light and entering the Dark Moon Shuttle.

The Great Sage then led everyone out of the ruins.

Upon arriving in the outside world, Chu Xinghe's mind went completely blank.

I still don't understand... what did I even do on this trip to the ruins...?

I came here to dodge treasures, but instead of dodging them, I ended up taking down the Dark Moon Clan... Now, can you hear the Dark Moon Clan shouting "May Heaven Bless Vast Heaven!" louder than any of us Vast Heaven Sect disciples?

But is it my fault? It's all that damn idiot Tantai Jing.

Why didn't you just take City of Dark Moon and leave? Why did you stay there and cause trouble for others?

Are you crazy?!

Filled with endless sorrow, Chu Xinghe crushed the Flute of Space and Time. Under the shroud of white light, everyone was enveloped by the light of the Flute of Space and Time and successfully appeared in the Vast Heaven Sect.

Chu Xinghe was in tears... Finally... the Flute of Space and Time worked normally for once. Ever since he first got the Flute of Space and Time, this thing had never worked properly.

He arranged for Gu Feng and the others to return to their respective palaces, while Chu Xinghe led the Dark Moon Clan straight to the Haotian Palace.

Soon, the entire Vast Heaven Sect was alarmed by the sudden arrival of the Dark Moon Clan.

Almost all the powerful figures in the entire Vast Heaven Sect rushed to the Haotian Palace.

Sect Gu Mingchao and the Grand Elder's faces were as black as the bottom of a pot.

The other elders also glared at the Great Sage An Zhi with unfriendly expressions.

It's not that the Vast Heaven Sect is unkind; it's just that the Great Sage's words were somewhat unkind.

"Holy One... Is this the Vast Heaven Sect? How can such a useless person become the sect leader?" The Great Sage was stunned when he saw Gu Mingchao.

Gu Mingchao was also stunned...

What the hell is this? I'm supposed to be the number one person in the world, okay...? Someone called me trash just because we disagreed, and they did it to my face! Where's your manners?

If Xinghe hadn't been standing there, you'd be dead by now, you know that?

Chu Xinghe's Chu Xinghe fell, but the tense atmosphere quickly dissipated after his explanation.

Instead, the entire Vast Heaven Sect stared blankly at the Dark Moon Clan.

Even the most learned Elder He had never heard of the Dark Moon Clan in any ancient books. There were some vague records about the City of Dark Moon, but they were very few.

As for the era mentioned by the Dark Moon Clan... Elder He had never heard of it, and there was no record of it in any unofficial history.

However, none of that was the key point. When a few members of the Dark Moon Clan performed a miracle of resurrection on the spot after a disagreement, the entire Haotian Palace almost exploded.

Xinghe... aren't the Dark Moon Clan you brought back this time far too ferocious?

A group of beings with Undying Bodies? A group of terrifying beings whose level was previously unknown?

A bunch of oddballs who, at the drop of a hat, declare that there's no difference between Martial Emperor and a good-for-nothing.

The problem is, you can't really argue with them even if you want to, because what they're saying is true.

The biggest problem now is how to deal with the Dark Moon Clan.

The Dark Moon Clan had no demands regarding this. The Great Sage stated on the spot that the Dark Moon Clan was able to see the light of day again because of the Holy One, so the Holy One was their Future. As long as they followed the Holy One, the Dark Moon Clan didn't care about anything else.

The Dark Moon Clan didn't care, but the Vast Heaven Sect did. Everyone knew how terrifying the Dark Moon Clan.

A group of Undying Body beings. Their existence is a symbol of the Vast Heaven Sect's eternal prosperity. As long as they exist in the Vast Heaven Sect, nothing in this world can shake the Vast Heaven Sect's position.

In the end, it was Chu Xinghe who gave his opinion.

Building the Dark Moon Palace in the Vast Heaven Sect is not troublesome at all; you can simply find a mountain peak, build the City of Dark Moon, and that will do.

Then, the An Zhi Great Sage will retain the title of Great Sage. Although the Vast Heaven Sect does not have this position, we can add it.

As for the status of the Great Sage... it's equivalent to the position of the head of each palace.

No one objected to Xinghe's proposal, after all, the strength of the An Zhi Great Sage was undeniable, and the addition of the Dark Moon Clan would be a tremendous boost to the Vast Heaven Sect.

The Great Sage had some reservations about Chu Xinghe's arrangement, saying that how could a cripple like himself be an elder?

These words caused the situation to spiral out of control somewhat... A group of elders from the Vast Heaven Sect were teary-eyed.

The meeting finally ended after heated discussions, but the sect leader and the Grand Elder kept Xinghe behind.

"Xinghe... you need to hurry up and let the Great Sage understand this world..."

Chu Xinghe nodded quickly in agreement with the sect leader's arrangement.

Actually, even if you hadn't said anything, I would have had to teach them quickly. Good grief, he just admitted to being a good-for-nothing without warning. Who wouldn't feel uncomfortable hearing that?

In the following period, Chu Xinghe personally led the Great Sage and the Dark Moon Clan to select a mountain peak, and City of Dark Moon was also located on the mountain peak. Dark Moon Palace also became the new top combat force of the Vast Heaven Sect.

However, compared to the completion of the Dark Moon Palace, Chu Xinghe was almost exhausted. Every day, he would drag the Dark Moon Clan members to explain what this world was like, and also tell them that they would be useless in their own time, but here... many people's life goal is to become useless... so please let them go.

It must be said that the Dark Moon Clan has a truly strong ability to adapt. In just a few days, through gradually gaining a better understanding of this world, the Great Sage finally stopped saying things like he was a waste and unworthy.

Just when Chu Xinghe thought he had succeeded, something even more speechless happened...
