After listening to Li Jinyao's analysis, Ji Lingyun somewhat agreed with her idea. After all, if we were to talk about the victims of "betraying one's master and ancestors," Ji Lingyun would probably be the only one in the Ten Lands of Jiuzhou who would have the most say.

"But the mother and child should be alright..."

Ji Lingyun offered psychological guidance to her disciple with uncertainty.

"After all, blood is thicker than water between mother and child. No matter how rebellious their personality is, they shouldn't really go to war."

Whether or not it will get serious is another matter.

Li Jinyao sighed and asked Ji Lingyun very sincerely, "Master, let me ask you this, do you feel happy treating you like this?"

"Of course I'm not happy!"

Ji Lingyun immediately replied, "What master in the world would want their disciple to treat them like that? Aside from masochists, there's no one else like that."

When she mentioned masochism, she Consciousness glanced at Jueyunzi, who was still embedded in the wall.

"That settles it."

Li Jinyao spread her hands.

"If you're already unhappy, how could I possibly have a child who will rebel against me in the future? What, would I be unable to find anything to do?"

Ji Lingyun agreed in her heart, but after thinking about it, she suddenly felt something was wrong.

"Damn it, you Little Bitch, you know I'm unhappy, and you still treat me like this!"

She roared in anger.

I know you're very unhappy.

Li Jinyao looked away.

"The important thing is that I'm having a great time... that's enough."

"Unfilial disciple!"

Ji Lingyun reached out to grab Li Jinyao, but tragically, by now, her cultivation level was vastly different from her own, a disciple with the Heavenly Demon Physique. Li Jinyao's talent was no less than that of the First Immortal Emperor, and she had the backing of the Immortal Ancestor. Now, even within the Immortal Realm, she had few rivals. So, when she saw her master use the Heavenly Demon Bone-Shattering Hand to grab her, she curled her lips in disdain, raised her hand, grabbed her master's wrist, countered her, and then threw her away with an over-the-shoulder throw.

Ji Lingyun's body flew backward and crashed into the courtyard wall with a bang, headfirst and footfirst, embedded in the wall alongside Jueyunzi.

Seeing this, Qiu Yuxuan, the Dean of the Profound Law Academy, who was sitting to the side, quickly took out Recording Stone and captured the Projection of the two of them side by side on the wall with a click.

"A world-famous painting."

He quietly put away the Recording Stone while muttering to himself.

His actions were naturally noticed by several Cultivation World. Gong Banque in Immortal City Jade Tower, moved his stool closer to Qiu Yuxuan and whispered, "Dean Qiu, let's all make money together."

"This... Master Gong, you've misunderstood. I just wanted to keep it as a collection of embarrassing historical artifacts."

Qiu Yuxuan hesitated for a moment.

"Jueyunzi Yunzi and Fellow Ji Lingyun are, after all, the Alliance Leader and deputy Alliance Leader of the Cultivator Alliance. Isn't it a bit inappropriate to treat them like this?"

"What's wrong with it? This is just a small, private transaction."

Gong Banque and skillfully guided her.

"On the surface, we're still close comrades-in-arms; we're not really going to spread it."

"Given the personalities of Jueyunzi and Fellow Ji Lingyun, I'm afraid they'll cause trouble for our Profound Law Academy in the future."

Qiu Yuxuan was still somewhat hesitant.

Seeing his expression, Gong Banque then unleashed his trump card.

"Some time ago, the disciples of Immortal City Jade Tower obtained a set of rare experimental equipment at the Heavenly Sea branch. It was crafted by Earth Immortal in the early days using Emerald Sea Stone from the Heavenly Sea..."

"No need to say anything more, how many duplicate Spirit Crystal do you want?"

Qiu Yuxuan's expression immediately changed, and he said seriously.

"Not many, one is enough."

Gong Banque laughed.

The two Righteous Path Sect Master looked like two thieves. Qiu Yuxuan quietly slipped a Recording Stone into Gong Banque's hand under the table. Gong Banque took it, quickly examined the item, and then the two old men exchanged a smile.

Their actions were observed by the few Cultivation World still remaining there. The Jade-Faced Buddha of the Heavenly Saint Buddhist Sect clasped his hands together and murmured, "Amitabha Buddha, forgive me."

The Army Commander of the Divine Martial Heavenly Army said to several Elders of the Azure Nether Sword Sect, "Hey, such a good thing can't be monopolized by those two. Everyone should have a share, let's go too!"

"This... Army Commander."

Zuo Yanfei, who had come with him, advised in a low voice, "Isn't this a bit inappropriate? You are all respectable figures in the Cultivation World; this is far too undignified."

What's so shameful about it?

The Army Commander shouted, "We are a righteous sect, while Ji Lingyun is the leader of the Demon Sect. It is our duty to slay demons and eliminate evil!"

He spoke with righteous indignation, completely disregarding the fact that another Jueyunzi leader of the Righteous Path.

"You make it sound so easy!"

The Second Elder of the Azure Nether Sword Sect stood up, pointed at him, and roared, "Damn it, you're extorting money from our sect!"

"Alas, Second Elder, you are mistaken."

The Army Commander shook his head and said, "What we're targeting isn't the sect's property, but the private treasury of Ji Lingyun, the leader of the Demonic Sect, and Jueyunzi, who is having an affair with her. How can we let the sect handle this? Don't you all agree?"

"The Army Commander is right!"

Several Elder of the Azure Nether Sword Sect whispered among themselves, and then stood up one after another.

"It's everyone's responsibility to fight against the Demonic Sect; let's go together!"

Elder.

Zuo Yanfei advised, "Jueyunzi Sect Master Jueyunzi is your Sect Master."

"So what if he's the Sect Master? We were the ones who chose him in the first place!"

The Elder of the Azure Nether Sword Sect burst into laughter.

I've been wanting to get rid of this bastard for ages!

Several Elder and the Army Commander of the Divine Martial Heavenly Army shook hands and patted each other on the shoulder, then walked together to Gong Banque and Qiu Yuxuan's side, asking for a share of the spoils.

Seeing this, You Meiqiao's eyes darted around, and she and the book continued, "Whoever sees it gets a share. Anything auctioned on our Hehuan Sect's territory naturally belongs to our Hehuan Sect."

"Senior Sister Mei Qiao."

Zuo Yanfei was speechless.

"You're also from the Demonic Sect."

"What's wrong with the Demonic Sect? Isn't Jueyunzi our number one enemy?"

You Meiqiao conviction.

"Furthermore, Junior Sister Yan Fei, who ever told you about the deep camaraderie among us in the Demonic Sect?"

Having said that, she also got up and, like a butterfly flitting among flowers, ran lightly to the group of Righteous Path people who had formed a circle, joining them in their wicked ways.

"Young benefactor Zuo Yanfei, there's no need to worry. They were just joking with each other."

Seeing Zuo Yanfei's sullen expression, the Jade-Faced Buddha chuckled and said, "The Sect Master are all people of principle; they wouldn't make jokes that go too far."

"They're planning to squeeze all the personal savings out of Jueyunzi Sect Master Jueyunzi and Sect Master Ji Lingyun."

Zuo Yanfei murmured to herself, then suddenly looked at the Jade-Faced Buddha with a strange expression.

"Why didn't the Buddha stop them? Weren't you the one who always played that role?"

Upon hearing this, the Jade-Faced Buddha smiled slightly, glanced at Jueyunzi, and then replied, "Well, justice resides in the hearts of the people."
