This Kid Was Really Wicked!
Many top sects' Dao Integration Realm watched Zhang Yang silently.
Is the Azure Cloud Sect really that poor?
Is this kid telling the truth?
Also, this kid seems a bit strange.
Many cultivators at the Dao Integration Realm were speechless at the Azure Cloud Sect's actions. Even if they were to provide resources to the Azure Cloud Sect, they would inevitably have some conditions and requirements. However, now that the elders of the Azure Cloud Sect were not showing up, they sent out a junior member instead.
If we negotiate, we probably won't achieve the results they want; if we don't negotiate, Azure Cloud Sect really releases the Demon Lord, everyone will be in trouble.
As for making a move... they're all at the Dao Integration Realm, everyone's watching, they should have some self-respect.
This is absolutely ridiculous!
The Daoist priest took a deep breath, forced a smile, and looked at Zhang Yang: "Young friend, we have some important matters to discuss with your elders. Wouldn't it be better to inform them?"
Zhang Yang hurriedly waved his hand. "We absolutely must not disturb them, or there will be big problems. Some time ago, the entire Azure Cloud Sect was shaken like an earthquake. Since then, Master and several senior uncles have gone into seclusion and strictly instructed that they must not be disturbed."
I could notify them, but if they show up and cause a major problem, no one can afford to take responsibility.
Of course, if you insist that I notify my master before you agree to provide the resources, then I can go and notify him. If problems arise and others ask me how the Demon Lord escaped, I'll tell them the truth: you released him!
The Daoist priest hurriedly waved his hand. "Then forget it."
He wiped his forehead; he was sweating profusely... He simply couldn't bear the guilt of unleashing Demon Lord!
Zhang Yang took out the Azure Cloud Sect Master Token and said earnestly, "My master said that I am the next School Leader and have the right to decide matters concerning the Azure Cloud Sect. So, if you have any issues, just talk to me."
Everyone looked at the Sect Master Token and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
They knew perfectly well that the Sect Master Token was genuine, but what could they do if the Azure Cloud Sect refused to acknowledge it later?
"Little one, I'll be blunt," the Dao Integration Realm from Langya Sacred Land said sternly, "We can indeed give you some resources, but you'll have to pay some conditions, right?"
Zhang Yang was displeased and looked at the Dao Integration Realm from Langya Sacred Land, saying, "I don't like what you're saying, senior!"
Demon Lord is not just a matter for our Azure Cloud Sect. We have guarded it for a thousand years, and generations of our predecessors have turned to dust, some even disappearing without a trace. Even so, we have not asked for anything.
We can't hold out any longer. Even as we were preparing to evacuate, Master sent someone to inform you. We have done everything we could!
Now that you're willing to provide resources... it's like paying us to help you suppress the Demon Lord, so why are you still making conditions?
"Other seniors, please judge for yourselves, isn't this the right way to do it?"
"This..." the monk said with a smile, "The Azure Cloud Sect members have worked hard and made great contributions, which we have all seen. Demon Lord is indeed not the responsibility of any one person. That's why we sent people here this time!"
My plan is that I will join the Azure Cloud Sect starting today and help the sect Demon Lord in the future.
As for the plans of the other fellow cultivators, I have no idea."
Zhang Yang was taken aback. Was this monk serious?
This guy got himself involved; that's a very cunning move!
If this monk becomes a member of the Azure Cloud Sect, wouldn't it be natural for him to intervene in everything the Azure Cloud Sect does? At that point, the secrets of the Azure Cloud Sect would have to be revealed. In fact, he would even have to give up the authority over the Azure Sky Ultimate Cloud Formation, otherwise, the fact that the Azure Cloud Sect couldn't suppress the Demon Lord would become a joke.
Zhang Yang's mind raced, but he outwardly looked at the monk with surprise. "Master, have you really decided to join my Azure Cloud Sect?"
"Of course I will!" the monk said solemnly. "The Buddha said, 'If I don't go to Hell, who Hell?' This time, I am determined to abandon this body and fight the Demon Lord."
"So, will the master be a member of the Azure Cloud Sect or another sect in the future?"
"As long as this Demon Lord remains undefeated, I will remain a member of the Azure Cloud Sect," the monk said solemnly. "If I am still alive after the Demon Lord is completely eradicated, then we can discuss other matters."
The other Dao Integration Realm brightened up; they all understood what the monk meant.
At that moment, several others echoed, "That's what we're planning too."
They looked at Zhang Yang, eager to see what Zhang Yang would say.
Zhang Yang slowly said, "If you seniors agree to help, that would be wonderful. As the acting sect School Leader, I would very much welcome you all. In fact, I can promise you right now that you are already members of the Azure Cloud Sect."
Now that you have joined the Azure Cloud Sect, I would like to ask you, how much of the resources you said you were willing to give our sect?
The monk smiled and said, "Ten million Spirit Stone, and the various refining materials add up to no less than ten million Spirit Stone. As for pills, most of the people in the Azure Cloud Sect are low-level disciples, so we are willing to provide a thousand spirit stones for the Foundation Establishment Realm and Golden Core Realm. Of course, these resources cannot make up for the Azure Cloud Sect's consumption over the years. However, with this humble monk, a Dao Integration Realm, joining the Azure Cloud Sect, it should be about enough."
The other sects followed suit, saying, "We'll probably do the same."
Zhang Yang frowned. The fact that various sects were offering tens of millions of Spirit Stone was nothing to these top-tier sects!
As for the elixirs and materials, they weren't of much value.
However, these things are actually particularly important to the Azure Cloud Sect at present.
With these resources, the disciples of the Azure Cloud Sect will experience a tremendous leap forward, and in a short time, batches of the Golden Core Realm, and even Nascent Soul Realm, will emerge...
However, if several Dao Integration Realm join a sect, that would be a huge disaster.
Zhang Yang pondered deeply. If he could control these Dao Integration Realm and make them loyal only to the Azure Cloud Sect, daring not to leave, he would definitely agree to these conditions.
Should we have them make an oath?
However, Zhang Yang's past experience told him, is making oaths really reliable?
Because he wasn't sure if it was reliable, he was conflicted and didn't know how to deal with the conditions proposed by these Dao Integration Realm.
Just as Zhang Yang was hesitating, Azure Cloud Master suddenly appeared in front of everyone.
"Zhang Yang!" Azure Cloud Master looked at the crowd and asked, "Who are they?"
How could he not know who it was? He was just looking for an excuse to show up.
"Master, have you finished suppressing the Demon Lord? Are those seals alright?" Zhang Yang asked in response.
Azure Cloud Master sighed and shook his head, "Difficult! By the way, who are they?"
Zhang Yang hurriedly said, "Master, they've come to bring us resources. Each family has promised to give us ten million Spirit Stone, a thousand spirit pills, and ten million Spirit Stone worth of refining materials. In addition, several seniors have also agreed to join our sect!"
Azure Cloud Master sneered, "This little bit of stuff is practically something you'd give a beggar. Do you really think we've never seen money before?"
However, the few of you who agreed to join Azure Cloud Sect showed some sincerity.
As the current School Leader, I can grant your request.
"After joining the sect, you will definitely have to participate in suppressing those Demon Lords, which involves the top secrets of my Azure Cloud Sect. Therefore, extract half of your Primordial Spirit and imprison them here with me! As long as you do not do anything to harm Azure Cloud Sect, I will not harm you in any way."
All the cultivators at the Dao Integration Realm were stunned.
By restricting their Primordial Spirit, wouldn't they be under Azure Cloud Master's control?
Are you kidding me?
