Requesting Senior to Become Our Hengyue Sect's Old Ancestor! Wang Lin Descends the Mountain

"We offer our thanks to the Senior for saving our lives!"

Liu Wenju stared blankly at Piao Nanzi's dissipating body, dropping to his knees the very first moment.

His voice was filled with profound gratitude.

He had thought the Hengyue Sect would be disbanded today, yet he never imagined this mysterious Senior would slay Piao Nanzi on the spot and save the sect.

"We offer our thanks to the Senior for saving our lives!"

The other Hengyue Sect cultivators also knelt down one after another.

Among them was the Hengyue Sect Master, True Lord Huang Long.

However, as True Lord Huang Long looked at Qin Hao, a strange glint flashed through his eyes.

"Rise, all of you!"

Qin Hao waved his hand.

"Thank you, Senior!"

Hearing this, the crowd stood up one by one.

Liu Wenju stepped forward and said respectfully, "Senior, since you have saved our Hengyue Sect from this crisis, all of us are willing to honor you as our Progenitor!"

He was not merely saying pleasantries.

He genuinely hoped the other party would remain with the Hengyue Sect.

In the Cultivation World, the weak were prey to the strong, and experts were revered.

With the Hengyue Sect's Nascent Soul Ancestors having all fallen, they needed to find another Nascent Soul Ancestor to hold the fort as soon as possible.

Otherwise, the events of today caused by Piao Nanzi would surely happen again in the future.

Qin Hao politely declined, "This Seat does not intend to remain in the Zhao Kingdom for long."

Changing the subject, Qin Hao added, "However, if you can gather the materials for an Infant-Establishing Pill, I can refine one for you."

This was not an act of misplaced benevolence, but rather a favor granted for the sake of the Hengyue Sect Master, True Lord Huang Long.

The man appeared to be a mere Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

In reality, he was a clone of the Vermilion Bird Old Holy Emperor of the Four Sacred Sect.

That was an expert who, like Tian Yunzi, was suffering from Heavenly Human Decline.

During its most glorious era, the Four Sacred Sect had even vied with the Cultivation Alliance for control over the entire universe.

Although the Four Sacred Sect had been defeated due to the intervention of the Kunxu Realm, it remained a colossal entity.

If he could establish a connection with such an existence, it would surely bring many benefits in the future.

"What? An Infant-Establishing Pill?"

Upon hearing the name of the spirit pill, Liu Wenju and the old woman both revealed expressions of shock.

They had naturally heard of this pill's reputation; if consumed while condensing a Nascent Soul, it could greatly increase the success rate of the breakthrough.

Such a pill was extremely rare in a Third-rank Cultivation Nation, and even in a Level 4 Cultivation Nation, they were scarce.

They never expected that the Senior before them would actually be capable of refining an Infant-Establishing Pill.

"Thank you, Senior!"

Liu Wenju hurriedly bowed.

If he had an Infant-Establishing Pill, he might be able to break through to the Nascent Soul stage and become the Hengyue Sect's new Nascent Soul Ancestor.

"These are the required medicinal herbs. Once you have gathered them, you may go find Dao Xu!"

Qin Hao tossed a Jade Slip to him, his figure flashing as he vanished instantly.

"Dao Xu?"

Clutching the Jade Slip, Liu Wenju beckoned to Dao Xu, who was not far away, "Junior Nephew Dao Xu, come here for a moment!"

With the disaster averted, the Hengyue Sect disciples left the plaza one after another.

"Wang Lin, come with me!"

Just as Wang Lin was about to return to his cultivation, he was intercepted by his master, Sun Dazhu.

This old fellow likely harbors ill intentions!

Cold light flickered in Wang Lin's eyes as he thought, If you intend to harm me, then do not blame me for being heartless!

Sun Dazhu brought Wang Lin into his room and brewed a pot of tea.

He poured a cup for Wang Lin, placed it before him, and said with a smile, "Disciple, you have truly stunned everyone with your performance. I never expected you to take first place in the Grand Competition between the Xuandao Sect and the Hengyue Sect. You have truly brought honor to your master!"

"Master, you flatter me. I only won the competition by luck," Wang Lin said with a humble expression.

"If you lacked the strength, no amount of luck would have allowed you to defeat your opponents."

Sun Dazhu smiled and pointed at the cup of tea, saying, "This is top-grade Spirit Tea that I've been treasuring. I usually can't even bear to drink it myself. Why don't you have a taste and see how it is!"

"No thanks, I'm not thirsty right now."

Wang Lin shook his head and refused.

He had not forgotten that Sun Dazhu had previously made him drink a bowl of decoction boiled with Spirit Transformation Grass.

If he hadn't been forced to dissipate his cultivation and start over, he would never have achieved what he had today.

"A gift from an elder should not be refused!"

Sun Dazhu insisted, "This tea can help one calm the mind and focus the spirit. It is quite precious, so you really should have a cup."

"Since it is so precious, you should save it for yourself, Master. Farewell!"

Wang Lin said indifferently and stood up immediately.

Seeing this, Sun Dazhu's expression darkened.

He suddenly formed hand seals, activating the Spirit Binding Array he had set up within the room.

"Swish, swish, swish!"

Golden chains appeared one after another, sealing off the entire room.

Wang Lin asked, "Sun Dazhu, what are you doing?"

"What am I doing?"

Sun Dazhu sneered, "You were able to raise your cultivation so much in such a short time; you must have some great treasure on you. Wealth moves the heart, so don't blame your master for being heartless!"

As he spoke, he began to manipulate the formation, firing off golden chains that lashed out toward Wang Lin.

To deal with Wang Lin, he had borrowed Formation Flags from other Foundation Establishment Senior Brothers, and he didn't believe he couldn't suppress the boy.

"Boom!"

However, the next moment, Wang Lin stomped his foot, and the aura of the Foundation Establishment Early Stage instantly swept across the room.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

In an instant, all the golden chains exploded.

Wang Lin's gaze was cold as he stepped toward Sun Dazhu.

"F-Foundation Establishment?"

"How is this possible!"

Sun Dazhu's face was filled with disbelief.

He had assumed Wang Lin was only at the Qi Condensation Stage and that the Formation Flags refined by a Foundation Establishment Senior Brother would definitely be able to suppress him.

He never imagined that the boy had actually broken through to the Foundation Establishment Stage.

"Wang Lin, I am an Elder of the Hengyue Sect; you cannot kill me!"

Sun Dazhu swallowed hard and threatened, "If you kill me, my Senior Uncle Liu Wenju will surely kill you!"

"Die!"

With just a single strike, Wang Lin ended the man's life.

"Whoosh!"

Afterward, Wang Lin cast a Fireball Technique to destroy the body and erase all traces.

Situ Nan's voice echoed in Wang Lin's inner heart: "Kid, you've killed an Elder of the Hengyue Sect. Even if you had your reasons, I'm afraid you can't stay here any longer."

Wang Lin nodded and said, "Actually, I had already planned to leave."

During his time at the Hengyue Sect, Qin Hao had sought him out several times, each time trading Spirit Pills for his Spirit Liquid.

It was precisely because of this that Wang Lin had been able to cultivate to the Foundation Establishment Early Stage so quickly.

Although Wang Lin had gained many benefits, he had always remained wary of Qin Hao in his inner heart, feeling that the man had grand designs.

"Since you have already made your decision, then leave this place!"

Situ Nan said, "Although the life of a rogue cultivator is a bit bitter, with me around, I guarantee I'll make you a master of your generation!"

Wang Lin packed his things and quietly left the Hengyue Sect.

From this day forward, he was a rogue cultivator without a sect or affiliation.

On the mountain peak, Qin Hao watched the figure moving into the distance and thought to himself, "Ma Zi has gone down the mountain. The next stop should be Teng Family City, right?"
