Returning to the Sect

"If you want it, you can have it."

Chen Mobai felt that he could still use this disguise in the future, so in order to keep it a secret, he did not reveal it to Zhou Wangshen. After leaving a sentence, he turned into a golden light and disappeared from the spot.

"There is actually such a person among the Rogue Cultivator of the Eastern Wasteland?"

Zhou Wangshen looked at Chen Mobai's disappearing Escape Light with a look of apprehension. He had just intended to test the strength of this mysterious Rogue Cultivator.

But when he extended his Spiritual Sense, it was immediately blocked, and he even felt a sense of great danger.

Being cautious by nature, he immediately gave up.

I'm afraid that among the cultivators of the Divine Wood Sect in the Yan Kingdom, only Junior Brother Chen could subdue this person.

With this thought flashing through his mind, Zhou Wangshen looked around at the Jiao Family cultivators who had been knocked unconscious by Chen Mobai, and a smile appeared on his lips.

Soon after, the drama arranged by Zhou Wangshen began to unfold.

The Qi Cultivation Level 6 cultivator who had bid on two Foundation Establishment had miraculously come back to life and arrived at the North Abyss Market Town. In front of all the Rogue Cultivator in the market, he cried to the Divine Wood Sect that the Foundation Establishment had been stolen by people sent by the Nan Xuan Sect.

As for why he cried to the Divine Wood Sect, it was because this person was actually an outer disciple of the Divine Wood Sect.

Then Zhou Wangshen appeared with a livid face, but he refused to believe that the Nan Xuan Sect would do such a thing.

The cultivator at the Qi Cultivation Level 6 was named Gou Changfa. He immediately stated that he had already escaped the pursuit, but the Foundation Establishment he had purchased was placed with a tracking spirit, and he was subsequently caught up by the Jiao Family cultivators belonging to the Nan Xuan Sect.

In order to escape with his life, he had to throw away the Foundation Establishment in order to survive and escape back.

Zhou Wangshen still didn't believe it, saying that the Nan Xuan Sect was Eastern Yi Great Sect of the Xuan Xiao Dao Sect, and it was impossible for them to do such a shameful thing.

Gou Changfa stated that when he threw down the Foundation Establishment, he also added a secret medicine to it, which could be tracked by Spirit Bee.

Since it concerned the hopes of his sect's disciples for Foundation Establishment, Zhou Wangshen immediately invited several fellow disciples out of the market to track down the two Foundation Establishment Pills.

After a day and a night, they indeed tracked down to Red Shadow Mountain, where the Jiao Family was located.

Adhering to the principle of friendly exchanges between the Divine Wood Sect and the Nan Xuan Sect, Zhou Wangshen did not send anyone to attack immediately, but instead sent a Message Talisman to Bao Se Market Town.

Then he calmly waited for the Nan Xuan Sect to send someone over and fall into the trap they had set.

If the Nan Xuan Sect sends someone to explain and try to exonerate themselves, then the group of the Jiao Family cultivators that Zhou Wangshen obtained from Chen Mobai will become the ultimate weapon, completely solidifying the charges against the Nan Xuan Sect and making them a symbol of untrustworthiness among the rogue cultivators of the Eastern Wasteland Rogue Cultivator.

However, as it turned out, Zhou Wangshen underestimated the Nan Xuan Sect.

Or rather, they underestimated the Golden Core True Person.

Half an hour later, a dazzling golden light, like the sun, swept across the sky, and a figure appeared and disappeared within it. He reached out and gently waved his palm towards Red Shadow Mountain, where the Jiao Family was located.

"Not good!"

Upon seeing this, Zhou Wangshen's expression changed drastically. He immediately took out a Third Grade Spirit Leaf Talisman, activated it, and led his fellow disciples in a rapid retreat.

Just then, a giant golden hand descended from the sky, like Sky-Covering Giant Hand, pressing Red Shadow Mountain inch by inch from its summit down to the earth.

Amidst the continuous rumbling and collapse, the hundreds of cultivators and clansmen of the Jiao Family who lived here were all crushed into flat ground along with Red Shadow Mountain by this giant hand.

"Snort!"

With a cold snort, he waved his hand and annihilated the cultivators of Red Shadow Mountain, then walked step by step toward Zhou Wangshen and the others.

The immense pressure sent chills down everyone's spines.

Within the Nan Xuan Sect, only one person possesses such strength.

Core Formation Cultivator, Nan Xuanjing!

Unexpectedly, it was he who took action personally, and he was extremely ruthless in doing so. He first wiped out the Jiao Family, who might have already fallen into Zhou Wangshen's trap and become a handle for his opponents.

With such a drastic measure, even if the Zhou Wangshen were to bring out the Jiao Family cultivators he had captured, it would no longer be able to play a decisive role.

"You brat from the Divine Wood Sect, you're still too green to try and outsmart me!"

As Nan Xuanjing spoke coldly, golden light shone again. Just as he was about to make his move, he suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

Suddenly, a Foundation Establishment Cultivator behind Zhou Wangshen stepped forward, unleashing powerful spiritual energy to block Nan Xuanjing's oppressive aura.

This person was Fu Zongjue's Puppet Body. It was unknown when he had started following Zhou Wangshen, or whether he had originally been invited by Zhou Wangshen to provide support.

"Fu Zongjue, you still like to hide your true intentions."

With a cold snort, Nan Xuanjing withdrew his spiritual power, turned around, and left the sky above the now razed Red Shadow Mountain, disappearing from everyone's sight.

"Thank you for saving us, Old Ancestor Fu. Otherwise, we would probably have already fallen victim to Nan Xuanjing's evil deeds."

Zhou Wangshen immediately thanked Fu Zongjue's Puppet Body, but the latter waved his hand and then led them back to North Abyss City.

"Greetings, Old Ancestor Fu."

After obtaining the two Foundation Establishment Pills from the Formless Puppet, Chen Mobai had already vaguely guessed that Fu Zongjue might make a move, so he wasn't very surprised to see that it was Fu Zongjue who brought Zhou Wangshen and the others back.

"Nan Xuanjing isn't entirely useless. He might be locked in a stalemate with his Nan Xuan Sect for a long time to come."

Fu Zongjue sighed, then had Zhou Wangshen, who was beside him, recount the events of the day.

This plan was not Fu Zongjue's idea, but rather a spontaneous act by Zhou Wangshen.

However, before Zhou Wangshen took action, he also considered the worst-case scenario and sent a message to Fu Zongjue's Puppet Body.

As it turned out, Nan Xuanjing was even more ruthless than Zhou Wangshen had imagined.

He originally thought that Nan Xuanjing would at most turn his back on him and kill him, but he didn't expect that he would plan to kill the Jiao Family and Zhou Wangshen to eliminate future troubles.

If Fu Zongjue been there, Chen Mobai would probably be collecting Zhou Wangshen's corpse today.

"From now on, stop with these petty tricks. Focus on developing North Abyss Market Town. The final outcome will depend on Senior Brother Zhou."

After Zhou Wangshen finished speaking, Fu Zongjue spoke up, and the former gave a wry smile and nodded.

"And you, Junior Nephew Chen, too. Now that the Mountain Shaking Peak has been destroyed, the remnants can no longer cause any waves. What I mean is that you can go back to the sect and cultivate in peace. After all, you are still the Jian Guo Town Guardian, and it has been a bit long since you left your post for two years."

Fu Zongjue's words surprised Zhou Wangshen Yue Zutao and others present. After all, this ancestor had always openly expressed his appreciation for Chen Mobai. Now, his words meant that Chen Mobai should give up the North Abyss Market Town he had worked so hard to build.

"Yes, thank you, Ancestor!"

Just as they were wondering what Chen Mobai had done to offend Old Ancestor Fu, the former accepted the offer with a surprised tone.

It turned out that Fu Zongjue Telepathic Message secretly told Chen Mobai that Yan Shaoyin, after more than a year of collecting, ordered all the main and Auxiliary Medicine ingredients needed for the Golden Liquid Jade Return Pill.

We'll just have to wait for the Starry Skies Great Merchant Association to come to the Eastern Wasteland again and bring the remaining three Thousand Year Spirit Medicine so we can start Alchemy.

Although pills of the Third Grade and above can be preserved for many years after successful refining, their medicinal effects are definitely best when they are first refined.

Therefore, Fu Zongjue hoped that Chen Mobai would stop worrying about these trivial matters and return to the sect to focus on cultivation, striving to achieve Foundation Establishment perfection as soon as possible.

After all, in the Eastern Wasteland, there is no bottleneck between the late Foundation Establishment and the Foundation Establishment Perfection stage. As long as there is sufficient spiritual energy and elixirs, it can be achieved very quickly.

Fu Zongjue even suggested that Zeng Woyou could stop refining Foundation Establishment and first help Chen Mobai refine a batch of pills suitable for late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators to enhance their spiritual power.

Chen Mobai was naturally moved, but then resolutely refused.

This indicates that the Foundation Establishment is crucial to the future of the sect, and it cannot be delayed because of him. His personal matters must never overshadow the sect's.

After hearing this, Fu Zongjue became even more satisfied with Chen Mobai.

This child is a kind and honest person.

Unlike Senior Brother Zhou, who looks like he has thick eyebrows and big eyes but is full of bad intentions.

After learning that Yan Shaoyin was about to refine the Golden Liquid Jade Return Pill, Chen Mobai lost interest in developing commerce and establishing Immortal City in the Yan Kingdom.

Even if you leave, you should still entrust these things to someone you trust.

"The sect needs to set up a garrison in both Yan Kingdom and Xiao Kingdom. Yan Kingdom is the most crucial and important. It's a pity that Senior Brother Zhou is already the Lei Kingdom Guardian, otherwise it would be quite suitable."

Upon hearing Chen Mobai's words, Zhou Wangshen hesitated, as if to say that he could actually resign from his position as the Lei Kingdom Guardian and take up a post in the Yan Kingdom.

But he immediately thought of the situation he had encountered not long ago when he was powerless against Nan Xuanjing. Although Fu Zongjue would have a Puppet Body stationed here for a long time, he still hesitated for a moment.

"Among the fellow disciples present, Senior Brother Yue is the most suitable in terms of ability and qualifications. I wonder what Old Ancestor Fu's opinion is?"

Chen Mobai nominated Yue Zutao, who is a disciple of Chu Zuoshu and a direct Direct Lineage of the Divine Wood Sect.

Although his cultivation level was locked due to consuming the Longevity Tree Fruit, he was still at the peak of the mid- Foundation Establishment. Moreover, the Yan Kingdom would soon usher in a long period of peace, which would be perfect for him to make his mark.

"Can."

Fu Zongjue to Chen Mobai's suggestion, but given Zhou Shengqing's seclusion, it was already an imperial edict that surpassed even the Sect Leader's decree.

"Ancestor, after conquering Yan Kingdom and Xiao Kingdom, Lei Kingdom is now considered the heartland of the sect. It will no longer be as frequently turbulent as before. Why not choose another junior brother to take over the position of guarding it? I will go to the Xiao Kingdom to promote the sect's righteousness."

At this moment, Zhou Wangshen gritted his teeth, stepped forward, and volunteered.

His performance in this war was somewhat mediocre, but he still coveted the Sect Master Position. So, after losing his post as the Yan Kingdom Guardian, he decided to settle for suppressing the rebellion in the Xiao Kingdom, hoping to achieve some success.

"Agreed!" Fu Zongjue pondered for a moment and nodded, then asked Chen Mobai, "Who do you think would be suitable to take over the position of Lei Kingdom Guardian?"

Zhou Wangshen wanted to recommend his own people, but he was also self-aware enough to know that since Fu Zongjue hadn't asked him, it was best not to interrupt.

"Junior Brother Yuan spent a lot of time in the Lei Kingdom in the past and is familiar with the Cultivating Family and customs there. After we invaded Yan Kingdom, he took the lead in seizing the Spirit Stone Mine and made great contributions. Why don't we let him do it?"

Upon hearing Chen Mobai's words, Yuan Chiye, who was standing in the corner, looked surprised. He never expected that he would be nominated.

It should be noted that among the Foundation Establishment Cultivator present, only Yu Lian had less seniority than him.

"Can!"

But something even more shocking happened to Yuan Chiye: after hearing Chen Mobai's suggestion, Fu Zongjue nodded without any hesitation.

This unexpected windfall left Yuan Chiye speechless.

Finally, it was Chen Mobai's Telepathic Message cough that startled him awake. Amidst the envious and jealous gazes of many fellow disciples around him, Yuan Chiye stepped forward with a joyful expression and bowed to Fu Zongjue.

"Nephew Chen, you should hand over your duties and return to the sect as soon as possible."

After confirming the personnel changes on the spot, Fu Zongjue gave an instruction to Chen Mobai and then disappeared.

"From now on, Yan Kingdom will be the center of the struggle. Lei Kingdom and Xiao Kingdom will be on the two sides of the Yan Kingdom, forming a pincer movement. As the three senior brothers, we need to work together to suppress the power of the Nan Xuan Sect within the Yan Kingdom."

After learning about the progress of the Golden Liquid Jade Return Pill, Chen Mobai lost interest in staying there. However, he still gave Yue Zutao and the other two a heartfelt warning.

"Although I don't have my junior brother's talent, I can still follow your plan and develop step by step without any problems."

Yue Zutao said with a smile. Chen Mobai nodded. He knew his senior brother well; he was the most patient and steady.

Before leaving, Chen Mobai hosted a banquet, inviting most of his acquaintances.

Besides Foundation Establishment Cultivator like Yue Zutao, there were also good friends from the Qi Refining stage, such as Qi Rui, Qi Hou, and Xi Jinghuo.

"Uncle-Master Chen, I encountered Shi Pengyi and Luo Lin in the sect's army earlier."

While Chen Mobai was drinking with Qi Rui, he heard the latter mention the names of two old acquaintances. These two fellow disciples happened to be assigned to Qi Rui's team.

"Oh, I didn't expect they also survived the Demon Beast attack on the island. This is really good news. Why didn't you say so sooner?"

"This..."

After hearing Chen Mobai's words, Qi Rui was unsure how to respond.

Although Chen Mobai still regarded him as a good friend, he, who grew up in the Eastern Wasteland, naturally drew a line between himself and Chen Mobai.

He would only visit Chen Mobai invited him.

Normally, Qi Rui would never dare to take the initiative to contact Foundation Establishment Cultivator, let alone Chen Mobai, whose reputation was growing day by day and was at its zenith. He was not as well-connected as Qi Hou and Xi Jinghuo. Even when he met Shi Pengyi and his sister, he did not want to rashly approach Chen Mobai, for fear of disturbing him, the commander-in-chief of the entire army.

Chen Mobai didn't understand, but Luo Yixuan, the apprentice who was pouring wine, roughly understood Qi Rui's thoughts and quietly conveyed them through Telepathic Message.

Are the two disciples still in the market?

"They were in Five Willows Mountain Market Town before, but they didn't come to North Abyss City afterward, so they should have left already."

"That's a real shame..."

After hearing Qi Rui's answer, Chen Mobai sighed. He and the two senior and junior brothers and sisters had a life-and-death bond, and if possible, he really wanted to see them again.

After handing over all the matters here, Chen Mobai returned to Giant Wood Ridge with only Luo Yixuan.

Liu Wenbai stayed there to prepare for the Little South Mountain Shop Nanshan Xiao Kingdom Yan Kingdom Guoxiao Elementary School.

After returning to his sect, Chen Mobai did not act in a high-profile manner. He simply went to the Spirit Treasure Pavilion to exchange for the Green Wood Sha that Xie Yuntian had given him, and then began a long period of seclusion.

But in reality, he returned to the Immortal Sect.

At the Sky Mending Dao Academy, Chen Mobai, unusually dressed in formal attire, went to the auditorium to watch this year's welcoming ceremony.

Yan Bingxuan failed the Graduate Exam last year, but she worked hard again this year and finally passed by the last minute, becoming a postgraduate student at the Sky Mending Dao Academy.

Chen Mobai came to greet her.

However, they discovered another unexpected acquaintance.
