Hungry Wolves Come Knocking, the Sect Master Is Humiliated

Outside the mountain gate of the Water and Fire Sect.

Two figures, brimming with greed and... evil aura, appeared silently and stealthily, like ghosts.

Indeed, it is the Fire Blazing Flame Valley Master Huo of Blazing Flame Valley and the Mysterious Nether Sect Master of the Mysterious Nether Sect!

"Hehehe... Brother Huo, the scenery in this Lower Realm is indeed quite unique." The Mysterious Nether Sect Master licked his dry lips, his eyes flashing with a cold light like a venomous snake.

"Hmph! Enough with the nonsense!" The Valley Master Huo scoffed disdainfully. "Getting down to business is the priority!"

"Walk!"

Without any concealment, the two of them unleashed their terrifying aura as Late-Stage Nascent Soul cultivators!

"Boom--!!!"

In an instant!

The entire Water and Fire Sect seemed to be completely enveloped by an endless sea of fire and an ice prison!

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

"Quickly! Activate the sect's protective formation!"

Countless disciples of the Water and Fire Sect rushed out in a panic!

However, faced with those two terrifying pressures, powerful enough to crush everything, they could barely stand, let alone resist!

"Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!"

Even those elders whose cultivation had reached the Golden Core Perfection were struck as if by lightning, spitting out a mouthful of blood, their faces turning as pale as paper!

"Who is this extraordinary person who has graced our Water and Fire Sect with their presence?"

Just then!

A voice, filled with majesty and... solemnity, emanated from the depths of the sect!

Then, the sect leader of the Water and Fire Sect, along with Shui Yan'er and a group of core elders, slowly walked out of the main hall.

As she looked at the two unbridled figures in mid-air, her heart sank!

[Late-Stage Nascent Soul...]

[And there are two of them!]

These two guys have a strange aura about them; they're definitely not good people!

"Who are you?" The Valley Master Huo looked down at her, his eyes filled with undisguised contempt.

"I Shui Qingrou, the Water and Fire Sect."

"Oh?" The Mysterious Nether Sect Master sized her up, a lewd glint in his eyes. "So, you're a woman."

"No wonder the Water and Fire Sect is so easily defeated."

"You!"

Upon hearing this, the disciples below were all enraged!

However, Shui Qingrou simply waved her hand, stopping their impulsive actions.

She knew that since the other party dared to be so arrogant, they must have come prepared!

[Could it be... someone from the Upper Realm?!]

If this matter is not handled properly, it could lead to the extermination of the entire sect! Moreover, this panic must not be allowed to spread among the disciples!

"Fellow Daoists," she suppressed her shock and put on a polite smile, "Since you're here, why don't you... come into the hall for a chat?"

The Valley Master Huo and the Mysterious Nether Sect Master exchanged a glance, a hint of amusement flashing in their eyes.

[That woman is quite sensible.]

"Alright! Let's go inside and talk!"

Inside the sect's main hall, all ordinary disciples were dismissed, leaving only the core elders and Shui Yan'er.

The gate was tightly shut.

The atmosphere instantly became extremely oppressive!

"Fellow Daoists," Shui Qingrou voice, "May I ask what brings you here today?"

"What brings you here?" The Valley Master Huo sneered. "Nothing much."

"I've heard that your Water and Fire Sect has a considerable collection."

"Perfect timing, my brother and I are a little short on cash lately."

"I'd like to borrow some 'travel expenses' from Sect Master Shui, please."

"Borrow money?" Upon hearing this, Shui Qingrou couldn't help but sneer inwardly.

This is hardly a loan.

This is clearly outright robbery!

"How much do you two want?"

"Not much." The Mysterious Nether Sect Master held up two fingers. "Two hundred thousand, mid-grade spirit stones."

"What?!"

Upon hearing this!

Everyone present was completely stunned!

Two hundred thousand mid-grade spirit stones!

That's equivalent to twenty million low-grade spirit stones!

Even a Soul Formation expert wouldn't dare to speak so boldly.

"Gentlemen, are you perhaps joking?" Shui Qingrou's voice turned icy cold.

"A joke?" The Valley Master Huo scoffed. "I never joke!"

"To tell you the truth!" He pointed to himself, then to the Mysterious Nether Sect Master beside him, "We come from the Azure Realm!"

"Blazing Flame Valley! Mysterious Nether Sect!"

You've probably heard of it, haven't you?

"What?!"

Upon hearing this, Shui Qingrou's pupils suddenly contracted!

[Blazing Flame Valley... Mysterious Nether Sect...]

[Isn't that... the mortal enemy of the Upper Realm's Water and Fire Sect?!]

She never expected that these two wicked men would actually chase her down to the Lower Realm!

"So you are fellow Daoists from the Upper Realm." She took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down. "However, you two may not know this."

"My Lower Realm Water and Fire Sect shares the same name as the Upper Realm."

"But in reality, they had already lost contact."

"Moreover, we are also extremely poor here."

"We simply don't have that many spirit stones."

She was trying to use this method to discourage the other party.

However, were the Valley Master Huo and the Mysterious Nether Sect Master so easily fooled?

"Stop wasting your breath!" the Valley Master Huo roared. "No spirit stones? Then offer something in return!"

Cultivation techniques! Spiritual weapons! Elixirs!

"Hand over everything of value!"

"Otherwise, today, I will slaughter your Water and Fire Sect!"

"You!" Shui Qingrou was so angry that she trembled all over!

But she knew she absolutely couldn't fight head-on!

Once this happens, the entire sect will be doomed!

What? You won't?

The lewdness in the eyes of the Mysterious Nether Sect Master grew even stronger as he looked at her swallowing her anger.

He approached slowly, step by step, his gaze sweeping unabashedly over Shui Qingrou Qingrou's full and mature body.

"Since Sect Master Shui cannot come up with the money..."

"Then how about..."

"... Use yourself to pay off the debt?"

"What?!"

Upon hearing this, Shui Qingrou felt as if she had been struck by lightning!

She never expected that the other party would make such a... shameless request!

"Hahaha! That's right!" the Valley Master Huo chimed in, "The Sect Master Shui still retains her charm; she's quite the character!"

"As long as you're willing to make us brothers comfortable."

"We can let bygones be bygones with these spirit stones!"

"Shameless!"

"Dirty!"

The elders were so angry they were trembling and were about to rush forward and fight!

"Roll!"

With a casual wave of his hand, the Valley Master Huo unleashed a terrifying shockwave that sent several elders flying and spitting blood!

At this moment, Shui Qingrou bit her lip tightly, remaining silent.

Her heart was filled with endless... humiliation and... struggle!

[reject?]

That was the calamity that wiped out the entire family!

[promise?]

That is, utter disgrace!

[But...]

"So, what do you say, Sect Master Shui?" Valley Master Huo laughed triumphantly. "Do you want to watch your sect be destroyed, or... obediently submit to us?"

Shui Qingrou closed her eyes, and two clear tears slid down her cheeks.

She knew she had no choice.

[Never mind...]

[As long as the sect can be preserved...]

What does this humiliation matter?

With trembling hands, she slowly unbuttoned the first button of her collar.

"Hahaha! That's more like it!"

Upon seeing this, the Mysterious Nether Sect Master was overjoyed!

He could no longer restrain himself, and reached out his dirty hand to grab Shui Qingrou's chest!

However, at that very moment!

"Stop!"

A sharp shout, filled with boundless rage and... killing intent, suddenly rang out!

Shui Yan'er, who had been standing in the corner, trembling with anger, finally couldn't hold back any longer!

She suddenly rushed out and stood in front of her mother!
