The Sect Master Is Truly Amazing

After taking a deep breath, Tian Jianzi cupped his hands and said, "Sir, everything that happened just now was a misunderstanding. Please calm your anger. The Second Elder was at fault first, so I will compensate you on his behalf."

The moment he said this, everyone else understood what it meant.

The Heavenly Sword Sect, one of the three great sects of the Big Dipper Dynasty, was backing down.

It was backing down before such a young man.

"That's more like it. Our Divine Sect loves nuclear peace. We're not unreasonable people, are we, Xiao Xixi?"

"The Sect Master is right. The Sect Master is truly amazing." Bo Saixi smiled.

Lovers of peace?

Tian Jianzi's face twitched. Naturally, he did not believe such nonsense. This was a world where the strong preyed on the weak. If they loved peace, they would not have come knocking at his door.

"Then how much compensation do you think would be appropriate, sir?"

Long Xiao seriously considered Tian Jianzi's question, but nothing seemed suitable.

The best way was to let Tian Jianzi decide for himself.

"System, purchase an Expert Aura Trial Card."

[ Ding! Purchase successful! ]

After completing the purchase, Long Xiao looked at Tian Jianzi kindly. "It's not such a big matter. I think you can handle it as you see fit."

Handle it as they saw fit?

Tian Jianzi breathed a sigh of relief. Thankfully, this man had not made some outrageous demand. But just as he was about to offer two hundred thousand Spirit Stones, a chill suddenly ran down his spine!

The Long Xiao before him seemed like a supreme immortal. With a single thought, Long Xiao could cast him into hell, leaving him forever submerged in darkness, never to awaken again.

He could not summon even the slightest thought of resistance. Even a Guiyuan Realm expert was not worthy of a single hair on this man's head.

"Y-You... who are you? Who exactly are you?"

Tian Jianzi's legs trembled, and his face turned ashen as he cried out.

He only felt incomparably insignificant. The man before him was like a vast starry sky—mysterious beyond measure and impossible to fathom.

The surrounding elders were equally dumbfounded and retreated one after another. They had felt the same oppressive pressure as their sect master.

Even Bo Saixi was stunned for a long while. This was the first time she had seen the Sect Master reveal such strength. It was utterly different from the appearance he put on when pretending to be in the Body Tempering Realm.

"I am who I am, a different kind of firework. Don't stray off topic. Let's continue discussing the compensation."

Long Xiao looked at him as if nothing had happened, a bright smile on his face.

Tian Jianzi nearly spat blood. How had Du Ziteng provoked such a terrifying figure?

But he was no ordinary man. Thinking in reverse, if the Heavenly Sword Sect could befriend such an expert, it would bring them nothing but benefits!

"My Heavenly Sword Sect is willing to compensate you with five million Spirit Stones. May I ask whether Senior is satisfied?"

Even his form of address had changed. He directly named an extremely generous sum, one-third of all the Spirit Stones accumulated by the Heavenly Sword Sect.

This was practically cutting flesh from their bodies.

"You're not bad. Come visit my Divine Sect when you have the time." Long Xiao was quite satisfied with his attitude. The man understood what was expected.

Tian Jianzi was instantly overjoyed. Had he gained this senior's approval?

He hurriedly cupped his hands. "Certainly. I will definitely come by for a chat when I have the time."

"Please wait a moment, Senior. I'll be right back."

Tian Jianzi did not dare delay for even a moment, afraid Long Xiao might change his mind. He hurried off to prepare the Spirit Stones.

"Sect Master, you're too amazing. You got so many Spirit Stones with just a few words."

Bo Saixi moved closer to Long Xiao and giggled intimately.

"Ahem, ahem. How can that be called swindling? This Sect Master acquired it through legitimate means with my personal charm." Long Xiao rubbed his nose and coughed twice.

Bo Saixi covered her mouth and laughed sweetly. Her silver hair drifted in the wind, and her soft waist swayed gently, making her extraordinarily beautiful and alluring.

A mature woman this beautiful became especially captivating when she carried a trace of youthful charm.

Long Xiao found himself staring blankly for a moment. Xue'er and Dong'er had already been initiated, but Xiao Xixi had not. When they returned, he would definitely let her experience his power. He could then use her strength to break through to the Diegang Realm.

The two chatted and laughed in the air. The elders and disciples did not dare make a sound, but the female disciples below whispered among themselves at the sight.

Long Xiao was already handsome, and his brilliant smile while talking with Bo Saixi had utterly captivated the female disciples.

Quite a few skilled female disciples even secretly took out small notebooks and sketched Long Xiao's smile.

No matter where one was, someone young, handsome, and powerful would always be admired.

Before long, Tian Jianzi returned with a spatial pouch containing five Storage Rings.

"Senior, these are five million Spirit Stones. Please inspect them."

Long Xiao merely glanced indifferently at the spatial pouch. He could even get five Storage Rings for free?

With a wave of his hand, he put it into his Storage Ring. "I trust you won't try any tricks with me. I'll be leaving now. If there's a chance in the future, I'll come visit again."

With that, Long Xiao took Bo Saixi's hand and transformed into a streak of light that vanished beyond the horizon.

After Long Xiao left, Tian Jianzi did not know whether he should feel sorrowful or joyful.

Would this be a blessing or a disaster for the Heavenly Sword Sect?

On the Heavenly Sword Sect's plaza, a pretty blue-haired woman stared blankly at Long Xiao's receding figure. "I need to tell Master about this quickly. We must establish friendly relations with this Divine Sect as soon as possible."

"Miss Lan Ling, shall we continue exchanging cultivation insights?" A spirited Heavenly Sword Sect disciple appeared beside her and spoke with a flattering expression.

However, Lan Ling frowned when she saw him, feeling somewhat irritated.

He was Tian Jianzi's son, the sword heir of the Heavenly Sword Sect, Zhou Zijian.

As the Holy Maiden of the Water Controlling Origin Sect, she had come to represent her sect in friendly exchanges between the two sects. But now, she had no desire to remain here any longer.

"My apologies, Senior Brother Zhou. I suddenly remembered an important matter and need to return to the sect."

Lan Ling rejected him coldly before turning and flying away.

As one of the three great sects, the Water Controlling Origin Sect had no need to be overly cautious. Moreover, this matter concerned the sect's grand plans.

Zhou Zijian was left standing there in a daze, his fervent enthusiasm thoroughly extinguished.

"How could this happen..."

Within the Demon Cloud Sect.

Mo Yunli had already received word that all the people sent out this time had been wiped out.

Inside the main hall, he roared furiously, "Trash! They're all trash! They were completely wiped out! No wonder Azure City has been so arrogant this time, daring to challenge us. So they found help!"

"Sect Master, we don't know the origins of that Divine Sect. Furthermore, none of the sect's elite have returned. We should refrain from acting rashly for now," someone advised.

At this point, the Demon Cloud Sect had practically been reduced to a sect master without an army.

Mo Yunli slammed the armrest of his seat several times. "Damn it! I can't swallow this insult. Send people to investigate the Divine Sect. Make sure you uncover its origins!"

"There have always only been four Tianyuan Realm experts in the Big Dipper Dynasty. Aside from the leaders of our three great sects, there is only that fellow from the imperial family. What is this newly emerged person supposed to be?" The more Mo Yunli thought about it, the angrier he became, until he was practically jumping with rage.

"Sect Master, I will handle it immediately. And since our sect has suffered such heavy losses, it seems we will need to put more thought into the recruitment assembly in a few days," another elder stepped forward and said.

Mo Yunli nodded and was about to say something when someone came in to report.

"Reporting to the Sect Master, we have just received news that the Divine Sect's sect master broke into the Heavenly Sword Sect alone. He forced the Heavenly Sword Sect's sect master to pay five million Spirit Stones before leaving unhindered. It is said that the Heavenly Sword Sect's sect master treated him with extreme respect."

"What? Even the Heavenly Sword Sect could do nothing to him? What kind of existence is he? He actually does not regard the Demon Cloud Sect or Heavenly Sword Sect as worthy of notice."

"I was too hasty. Let's investigate first." Mo Yunli took a deep breath and suppressed his fury.

After leaving the Heavenly Sword Sect, Long Xiao did not want to return to the sect so quickly. The night was already deep.

There were too many women in the sect. Troublesome.

Tonight, Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue would definitely torment him. He might as well take this chance to deepen his relationship with Xiao Xixi and improve his cultivation.

Moreover, his second reason for bringing Bo Saixi along was that once the cultivation card expired, she could fly him back.

[ Mission requirements: 1. Accomplish something that spreads the Divine Sect's fame throughout a thousand-mile radius. 2. Cultivate to the Diegang Realm. 3. Accumulate 1,000 good deeds for the sect. ]

The first minor mission should be nearly complete now. He only needed to wait for the matters involving the Heavenly Sword Sect and Demon Cloud Sect to spread.

For the third minor mission, Qian Daoliu needed to work harder. They only had a little over three hundred good deeds so far.

As for his cultivation, with the help of the Automatic Cultivation Heart Sutra, he had already reached the Ninth Layer of Body Tempering.

This Heart Sutra was truly useful. As long as he studied the tadpole-release project with someone, he could gain that person's power without affecting them. However, the first time had the best effect, while the effects afterward were much slower. Still, it was better than nothing.

Next, as long as he entered that sea cave of ice and fire, he would definitely be able to break through to the Diegang Realm.

Thinking of this, he looked at Xiao Xixi beside him.

"Xiao Xixi, as a Sea God Douluo, you must really like water, right? The sun was quite strong today, and we've both sweated a lot."

"There's a beautiful little lake below. Let the Sect Master help you take a bath."
