Is This How Honored Guests Are Treated?

The two flying boats sped through the clouds at an incredible speed. In the distance, several continuous immortal mountains were already faintly visible, and even here they could sense the rich Spiritual Qi emanating from them.

Fu Shuangjiang put down the communication talisman in his hand. Even though he received Sang Ying's reply that "he is temporarily fine," his furrowed brows did not relax.

He used to think that Jiang Zhuoxue was all looks and no talent, and that she wasn't sincere with Sang Ying.

He was suddenly struck by the devastating news and learned of the other person's true identity, realizing the deep connection between him and Sang Ying.

He couldn't help but change his opinion of Jiang Zhuoxue. Even though Fu Shuangjiang still harbored feelings for Sang Ying, he no longer looked down on Jiang Zhuoxue.

However, with Jiang Zhuoxue captured and Sang Ying and her group trapped, rescuing them safely will certainly not be an easy task.

Fu Shuangjiang couldn't help but feel somewhat worried.

Seeing this, his junior brother guessed what his senior brother was worried about and comforted him, "Senior brother, don't worry. This time, our sect leader is leading the charge and has said he will rescue Fellow Sang Ying. The sect leader wouldn't lie to us; Fellow Daoist Sang Ying will definitely be alright."

Fu Shuangjiang believed this. Their sect leader never made promises lightly, but once he did, he would always keep them.

However... it's unclear whether Sword Frost Cliff can gain an advantage against so many powerful sect leaders and elders, and he himself is unwilling to confront Sword Frost Cliff and Limitless Sect head-on.

Fortunately, the Star-Forging Sect was also with them on their rescue mission, so the two sides could offer some assistance.

With such trepidation, the two flying boats soon came to a stop above the Limitless Sect.

The arrival of the two flying boats was so sudden that no one expected it. Upon seeing this, the disciples of the Limitless Sect hurriedly went to inform the sect leader and elders.

Upon hearing who the visitor was, Sect Master Wu's expression immediately changed.

He clearly got rid of both of them, so why are they back?!

Although he now has a large following and is not afraid of these two sects, their entry will inevitably disrupt the balance of power he has painstakingly achieved.

Sect Master Wu gritted his teeth and quickly followed his disciple out.

The two flying boats had already landed safely within the sect's grounds, thanks to the arrangements made by the Limitless Sect disciples.

The cultivators from the two sects landed like dumplings, quickly filling the small square of the Limitless Sect.

Seeing the way the two were practically moving house, Sect Master Wu's forced smile vanished completely, "What are you two sect leaders doing? Didn't you say you had some miscellaneous matters to attend to within the sect, so you secretly left earlier?"

The Sect Master Ji, dressed in purple, remained silent with a grim expression, while Luo Li of the Star-Forging Sect had no such reservations and immediately cursed:

"You, Wu Renyao, I barely left and you've already conjured up a black dragon that's trapped little fellow Daoist Sang Ying. What, are you really as heartless as your name suggests?"

Sect Master Wu's name wasn't good, but it was still given to him by his parents. He always liked to be a moral exemplar, so even though he hated his name, he still refrained from changing it.

However, he also intentionally prevented people from calling him by that name, and any cultivator with a modicum of intelligence would not dare to provoke him.

Only Luo Li, who never got along with him, always liked to poke at his sore spots.

It should be noted that the cultivators of the Star-Forging Sect were the very people that Sect Master Wu had been trying his best to win over.

However, due to Luo Li's influence, he was forced to give up this considerable combat power.

Now that this person is causing him trouble again, Sect Master Wu feels he can no longer tolerate it.

"Wu Renyao, say something! Are you really planning to lock up your savior for life and kill his contracted divine beast?" Luo Li clicked his tongue, bluntly pointing out the despicable things this man was doing.

Previously, thanks to the deliberate cover-up by that group, the matter wasn't so unpleasant. But now, after Luo Li's words, everyone present, regardless of their past reputations, wore expressions of shame.

In the end, Sect Master Wu still didn't dare to break ties with him, after all, Luo Li fought like he didn't care about his life, and even he was afraid of him.

"Sect Master Luo, don't listen to other people's nonsense. I captured that black dragon because he was causing havoc in the world, while Fellow Sang Ying was left behind as a guest. What talk of imprisonment? Don't believe everything you hear." Sect Master Wu rubbed his temples, feeling a bit of a headache.

He might be able to fool others with those words, but he couldn't possibly fool Luo Li.

"Really?" Luo Li crossed his arms, his expression mocking. "Then let them come out and tell me. I'll only feel at ease if I ask them myself."

His attitude was very firm, and he made his purpose clear. Sect Master Wu endured it for a long time, but in the end he did as he was told.

Before long, Sang Ying and the others were finally led out of the courtyard and were able to meet Luo Li and the others.

Luo Li was a bit impulsive, but he wasn't stupid. His first question to everyone was, "My fellow disciples, did you stay in the Limitless Sect voluntarily? Has Sect Master Wu kept you confined to your rooms these past few days, forbidding you from going out?"

"Of course it's voluntary," Dong Fuzhu said, raising her innocent and adorable face. "After all, Senior Sister's contracted beast was left here; how could we possibly leave?"

The smile that Sect Master Wu had just begun to display vanished instantly.

"So, the reason they wouldn't let us leave the courtyard was to trap us." Hai Tingzhou blinked. "I thought it was the Limitless Sect protecting our safety."

Alright, now Sect Master Wu is no longer laughing.

Against his gloomy face, Luo Li's voice grew even sharper and more grating. "Oh, so this is how your Limitless Sect treats its guests? I've certainly broadened my horizons."

Sang Ying, who was in the lead, lowered her eyes, her face full of helplessness. "Sect Master Luo, please don't blame Sect Master Wu. It's all our fault. We shouldn't have come to the Black Tortoise Realm, which is why we're facing this calamity now."

Her words of sadness were, in fact, a blatant disregard for the dignity of Sect Master Wu and the others.

For a moment, Sect Master Ji frowned, Luo Li opened his mouth as if about to spout nonsense again, Sang Ying and the others looked sorrowful, as if they had suffered a great injustice. Sect Master Wu and the others were so angry that their beards almost flew up.

Admittedly, they weren't very polite to Sang Ying and her group, but they shouldn't have been so disrespectful in telling others! Besides, it was only a temporary restriction on their movement; how could that be so unreasonable?

Sect Master Wu gritted his teeth and said fiercely, "This matter must be a misunderstanding. Fellow Daoist Sang Ying is an honored guest of our Limitless Sect. How could we dare to neglect her? It must be that my disciple did not understand my meaning, which is why you all have been wronged. I will punish him later."

"So, according to you, Sang Ying and the others can freely enter and leave the Limitless Sect?" Luo Li asked directly.

"Yes."

"So, they're honored guests, meaning they can move around freely within the Limitless Sect?"

"Yes!"

Luo Li smiled and said, "So, since they are honored guests, can they go out and buy whatever they want, and the Limitless Sect will pay for it?"

"... Yes!" Sect Master Wu nearly ground his teeth to powder.

"Alright." Having received a positive response, Sect Master Luo was somewhat satisfied. "Then let's do as you say and properly entertain these distinguished guests from today onwards."

Following Luo Li's words, Sang Ying looked up and smiled at Sect Master Wu.

Don't worry, she certainly won't be polite to the Limitless Sect.
