Taking Their Place, Better Safe Than Sorry

True Person Wu said calmly, "Of course, this matter has caused quite a stir, and I have heard about it."

But... what does this have to do with the advice you're trying to give?

Li Yunjing smiled and said, "It's nothing. I just wanted to tell True Person Wu that Feng Feilong's death was not accidental, but rather orchestrated."

The man coveted a treasure that Feng Feilong had obtained and attempted to kill him.

After killing Feng Feilong, the man rose to prominence by acquiring the treasures he had obtained, eventually becoming the leader of a certain sect.

Not many people probably know about this.

I hope True Person Wu doesn't end up like Feng Feilong.

True Person Wu smiled after hearing this.

"Really? There's such a thing? This is the first time I've ever heard of it."

I wonder which sect that person eventually became the leader of?

Li Yunjing shook his head. "How could I possibly know such details?"

"Hehe." True Person Wu chuckled.

After a pause, True Person Wu looked at Li Yunjing.

Since Sect Leader Li is unwilling to accept Clear Wind Sect's goodwill, Clear Wind Sect will not force him.

However, the matter of Zhong Lan is indeed unrelated to the Clear Wind Sect, and I have already made this clear to Deacon Wang.

Sect Leader Li, please don't blame Clear Wind Sect.

After saying this, True Person Wu looked at Wang Qianxue.

He was leaving the Xunxian Town Immortal Alliance, unwilling to stay any longer.

Wang Qianxue didn't try to stop him, and had someone escort True Person Wu away.

After True Person Wu left, Wang Qianxue took Li Yunjing back to her courtyard.

"You brat, you dare to threaten a Golden Core True Person? You've got some nerve. Aren't you afraid Wu Lingwei might retaliate in a fit of anger?" Wang Qianxue laughed.

"Isn't Master's wife here?" Li Yunjing said.

"Wu Lingwei is at the Golden Core Stage, while I'm only at the Foundation Establishment Perfection stage. How could I be his match?" Wang Qianxue said.

Li Yunjing smiled, "I believe that my master's wife is more than she appears on the surface."

Wang Qianxue smiled but did not respond.

After a while, Wang Qianxue asked:

"Speaking of which, what grudge do you have against the Clear Wind Sect that you rejected Wu Lingwei's overtures?"

Li Yunjing recounted what Mo Xuan and Shui Yao had experienced before.

Upon learning that Mo Xuan and Shui Yao had almost been killed by the Clear Wind Sect, Wang Qianxue frowned.

"Is that so? No wonder. In that case, let Luozhen Sect replace Clear Wind Sect," Wang Qianxue said.

Li Yunjing was stunned. What did he mean by letting Luozhen Sect replace Clear Wind Sect?

"Master's wife, what does this mean?" Li Yunjing asked, puzzled.

Wang Qianxue explained, "We received instructions from above that, in order to deal with the Demonic Sect such as the White Bone Immortal Sect, we plan to focus on cultivating several key personnel in each branch."

Clear Wind Sect was one of the originally proposed candidates.

Although Clear Wind Sect has done many despicable things, it is still considered a righteous sect.

Moreover, with a Golden Core True Person in charge, the overall strength is quite good.

This is why, even though the reasons given by the Clear Wind Sect were so flimsy, the Immortal Alliance didn't want to impose excessive penalties.

In these turbulent times, we must concentrate all forces that can be united and not allow ourselves to be defeated one by one.

But for now, let's forget about the Clear Wind Sect and let your Luozhen Sect take over.

I believe that one member of your Luozhen Sect can be worth two Clear Wind Sect.

Li Yunjing was secretly startled.

Would you call this unprecedented wealth?

However, he quickly gave a bitter smile.

One is worth two; his master's wife really thinks highly of the Luozhen Sect.

Given time, Luo Luozhen Sect could easily hold his own against two, or even three.

But the question is, is there that much time?

"You need to become Golden Core cultivator as soon as possible, otherwise I'm afraid you won't pass the review," Wang Qianxue said.

"The core force that headquarters plans to cultivate this time has one requirement: they must be from the Third-Rank Sect."

"You've taken the Three-Transformation Golden Core, so you should be able to become Golden Core cultivator soon, right?"

Li Yunjing nodded. "I should be able to break through in about six months."

"That's good. Considering your potential, headquarters should be able to pull some strings."

"As long as you can break through to the Golden Core in a short time, then there will be no problem," Wang Qianxue said.

I chatted with Wang Qianxue for a while longer.

Only then did Li Yunjing leave the Xunxian Town Immortal Alliance.

After leaving this time, Li Yunjing planned to go into seclusion.

A few days later, Wang Qianxue told Li Yunjing not to get involved in the siege of the Holy Venerable Sect.

Even the entire Luozhen Sect doesn't need to send anyone to participate.

Wang Qianxue's intention was to allow Li Yunjing to focus on his breakthrough.

Li Yunjing flew away from Xunxian Town on his sword and Luozhen Sect.

But before they had gone far, someone suddenly appeared in front of Li Yunjing and blocked his way.

Li Yunjing stopped, his brow furrowing.

The visitor was none other than Wu Lingwei.

"True Person Wu, what do you mean by this? Do you intend to make a move?" Li Yunjing shouted.

Wu Lingwei chuckled, "Sect Leader Li has misunderstood. I stopped Sect Leader Li abruptly for just one thing."

Wu Lingwei took out a Storage Bag from his pocket and tossed it directly to Li Yunjing.

"Sect Leader Li, this is just a small token of my appreciation; I hope you will accept it," Wu Lingwei said.

"Regardless of the circumstances, Clear Wind Sect has absolutely no intention of being enemies with the Luozhen Sect, and we hope that Sect Leader Li is aware of this."

After today, Clear Wind Sect and Luozhen Sect will live in harmony, each pursuing their own path.

Li Yunjing wanted to return the Storage Bag to Wu Lingwei.

Wu Lingwei didn't give Li Yunjing that chance and left directly.

Li Yunjing's face darkened.

He didn't even give himself a chance to say a word.

Then don't blame yourself for being unreasonable.

Li Yunjing will definitely not let Clear Wind Sect go.

The words I spoke to Wu Lingwei earlier were a warning to Wu Lingwei.

Through the search of Wan Xing and Zhong Lan

Li Yunjing learned some things.

For example, the case of Feng Feilong that I just mentioned.

Feng Feilong obtained a Vermilion Fruit that was eight hundred years old.

However, Wu Yunzhi, the current leader of the Clear Wind Sect, unexpectedly learned of this.

Wu Yunzhi's greed emboldened him.

They lured Feng Feilong to a secluded place in the name of the Clear Wind Sect.

Finally, he killed Feng Feilong and took the Vermilion Fruit.

With the help of the Vermilion Fruit, Wu Yunzhi level increased dramatically, allowing him to defeat his senior brother and become the leader of the Clear Wind Sect.

Not many people know about this.

Wan Xing's father was also a disciple of the Clear Wind Sect.

He and Wu Yunzhi are fellow disciples.

Wan Xing's father was invited when Feng Feilong was killed.

However, Wan Xing's father did not agree, as it was not a respectable matter.

And because he had been invited,

After Wu Yunzhi became the sect leader, he was targeted at every turn.

Unable to endure it any longer, Wan Xing planned to self-destruct, but her father was murdered to silence her.

Wan Xing already knew about Wu Yunzhi's actions.

It was only because he kept quiet and hid it well that he was not affected.

Wu Yunzhi is also Wu Lingwei's biological son.

If the killing of Feng Feilong is exposed, Wu Lingwei, a Golden Core True Person, and even the entire Clear Wind Sect will be utterly disgraced and subjected to public condemnation.

At least in Xunxian Town, Clear Wind Sect can't survive.

Feng Feilong's prestige in Xunxian Town was quite high back then.

Li Yunjing used this incident to warn Wu Lingwei.

If Wu Lingwei dares to make any underhanded moves, he'll be ruined and disgraced.

Li Yunjing planned to deal with the Clear Wind Sect after he reached the Golden Core stage.

Who could blame them when Wu Lingwei was also a Golden Core cultivator?

Before he became Golden Core cultivator, Wu Lingwei probably wouldn't have dared to make any underhanded moves.

This gave Li Yunjing the opportunity to develop.

With this thought in mind, Li Yunjing released his Divine Sense and probed into the Storage Bag.

"Wow, they gave me quite a lot." Li Yunjing muttered to himself.

The Storage Bag is full of things.

The Spirit Stone alone piled up into a small mountain.

If you count them carefully, there must be at least several thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stone.

In addition, all other items such as spirit medicine and pills were also readily available.

It seems that Clear Wind Sect truly does not wish to be enemies with the Luozhen Sect.

Thinking that losing money would avert disaster.

Unfortunately, Clear Wind Sect misjudged the feud with the Luozhen Sect.

These things were not enough for Li Yunjing to let go of his hatred.

Store the Storage Bag properly.

Li Yunjing planned to send someone back to the Clear Wind Sect Storage Bag.

To avoid being harassed by the Clear Wind Sect Clear Wind Sect even after they've destroyed it.

Clear Wind Sect

Wu Lingwei arrived through the air and returned to the sect leader's peak.

Upon entering his cave abode, Wu Lingwei summoned his son.

After Wu Yunzhi arrived, Wu Lingwei asked:

"Yunzhi, let me ask you, what did you know about the matter of killing Feng Feilong?"

Have you eliminated all those who knew about this?
