After the mind-reading cripple junior sister, the entire sect rose to prominence.

Why wasn't Chapter 78 allowed to be read in its entirety?
Now that everyone has witnessed Yu Chenggan's actions, they are filled with anger and have all sided with the Xianlai Sect.

After the acupuncture was administered, Chen Lan suddenly became agitated, "Yu Cheng, you have such audacity!"

"I'm bold? What do you mean by that?"

"Of course you're audacious! Over the years, you and your father have profited from every round of the Hundred Schools Training Program, forcing the disciples from other schools to give you tributes. If anyone disagrees, you secretly resort to underhanded tactics, just like you're doing to us now. No wonder the disciples who return from the training programs always mention your name, Yu Cheng. Your reputation is even more renowned than that of your sect's leader and his son!"

Upon hearing this, some disciples who had never heard the inside story were shocked and their eyes widened—

"What? Is there such a thing?"

"Yu Cheng actually extorted money from those disciples of the Reincarnation School? This is outrageous!"

"This is outrageous! How will those people view our Qingyue Sect now!"

"What a parasite on the sect!"

Everyone was angry.

The reputation of Qingyue Sect is at stake. We did nothing, yet we have to follow Yu Cheng and embarrass ourselves. How can we be happy about that?

Moreover, Yu Cheng has benefited from this. Hundreds of disciples come to the training every time. If he does this every time, who knows how much he has profited over the years!

People disapproved of what he did, but more than that, they felt a subtle jealousy at seeing others make a fortune.

In the video, Yu Cheng looks somewhat smug, saying, "Really? I'm that famous."

"But so what? In terms of looks and character, Young Master Huayue is far superior to you!"

"Pah, what a 'Young Master Huayue'! He's just a pretty face with no substance, all because he has the sect leader as his father..."

The moment the word "that's it" was uttered, the image in mid-air disappeared.

Hu Jiu silently put away the recording stone, and then noticed that everyone around him was suddenly looking at him.

"No, where's the video? How did it just disappear?"

"What did he say next? Show it to everyone."

"Exactly, why didn't they let us finish watching it?"

"What do you mean by 'embroidered pillow'? What is he trying to say? What is he trying to say?!"

Everyone was getting really into it, and because of their sensitivity to gossip, almost everyone felt that Yu Cheng was going to reveal something here.

But before I could finish listening, the video disappeared!
Gone!

This left everyone stuck in an awkward position, feeling incredibly uncomfortable.

Haha, well done! That's how it should be done.

[You can tell them what we said so far to prove that what we said is true, but you must not listen to what comes after that.]

The following words concern the sordid affairs of the Qingyue Sect's higher-ups; if they were all released, it would stir up a hornet's nest.

Yu Cheng may offend these big shots because of these words, but the Immortal Sect will do the same!
As a small sect, they need to know the importance of things in this matter; otherwise, if Qingyue Sect gets angry, they won't even have time to recuperate and quietly grow stronger.

It's better to keep it; consider it doing those people a favor, so as not to offend them too much.

This makes it easier to negotiate compensation.

Mo Jiuwei thought Hu Jiu handled the matter quite well; a little less would have been a loss, and a little more would have been excessive.

"This is the evidence." Hu Jiu ignored the eager looks from those people. "As for the rest, I need to show it to the sect leader."

"Fellow Daoist!" Two young disciples waved to Hu Jiu from afar and struggled to squeeze into the crowd, their faces flushed. "The sect leader invites you in. Please follow me!"

finally come!

Hu Jiu breathed a sigh of relief and hugged Mo Jiuwei tightly. "Excuse me, I need to go see the sect leader. I have ample evidence, and I believe your sect leader will give our Xianlai Sect a satisfactory explanation."

He spoke with such righteous indignation that he made sure everyone could hear him.

The two young disciples under the sect leader twitched their lips, thinking that this compliment was too much...

However, I still need to convey these words, as well as what just happened, to the sect leader as soon as possible.

Actually, the two of them had arrived earlier, but they were looking up at the screen like everyone else until the screen cut off, at which point they walked towards Hu Jiu.

So when leading Hu Jiu to see the sect leader, one of the disciples tried to hold back, but finally couldn't resist—

"Um, fellow Daoist, what did Yu Cheng say next?"

As soon as he asked, another disciple quickly nodded, "That's right, what did he say? It felt like he only said half of it, he didn't finish."

Hu Jiu laughed.

"The rest of what I have to say is best left unsaid; it's really too offensive to hear," Hu Jiu clicked his tongue and then shook his head vigorously.

Unbearable to hear?
The two exchanged a glance, their eyes gleaming with gossip.

But Hu Jiu stopped talking.

After being invited into the main hall, they saw the sect leader and two older men sitting in the seats of honor.

One of the younger disciples stepped forward and whispered something in the sect leader's ear. Upon hearing this, the sect leader frowned and looked at Hu Jiu.

Hu Jiu stood there holding Mo Jiuwei, looking back without any fear.

After hearing this, the sect leader waved his hand, and the disciple stepped aside and stood respectfully.

"You are a disciple of the Immortal Sect. What is your name?" the sect leader asked.

"My name is Hu Jiu. The two disciples from my sect who have come for this exchange of learning are Uncle-Master Liu Feng and Senior Sister Chen Lan." Because Hu Jiu was holding Mo Jiuwei, he was unable to perform the full bow, so he lowered his head as a greeting.

The sect leader of Qingyue Sect was at the Tribulation Transcending stage. This was the first time Hu Jiu had ever seen such a powerful figure. The other party did not deliberately release any pressure, but the subtle aura he exuded was enough to make the lower-level disciples tremble with fear and awe.

The sect leader nodded. "We already know about this matter. Don't you have a recording stone? Take it and let us see it. Once we know the whole story, we will definitely give your Immortal Sect an explanation."

“Alright, but my martial uncle and senior sister are still missing, so please, Sect Leader, find Yu Cheng and his father first and ask them to release them,” Hu Jiu said.

The sect leader glanced at him, pondered for a moment, then nodded and said to the tall, thin disciple beside him, "Go, have Yu Meng and Yu Cheng come here, and also bring the two disciples from the Immortal Sect."

"Yes!"

Just as the tall, thin disciple was about to leave, he heard Hu Jiu speak—

"Please invite the garden masters and elders to come again, Sect Leader."

The sect leader was puzzled upon hearing this, "Why is that?"

He thought Hu Jiu was afraid that he couldn't make the decision alone, or that he couldn't handle the matter fairly, so he felt a little displeased and said in a deep voice, "Don't worry, if this is true, I will not protect anyone and will deal with it severely!"

Hu Jiu quickly waved his hand, "No, no, that's not what I meant. It's just that... there are some words about them in this memory stone. I think it would be better if they were present when we look at the memory stone."
