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

Chapter 94 Who's in Charge?

"No, why are you blaming us now?" Meng Ling asked, looking bewildered.

"I'm just going to stay here. Anyway, you guys were the ones who contacted me first."

If Quanling were a person, she would definitely be standing with her chin up and arms crossed right now.

"If you really want to get rid of me... fine then, I'll go back and say that you forced me to leave, and that you even told me about your Qiankun Immortal Mansion! That Liu Wuhan is hypocritical and ruthless. If he finds out, he'll definitely take the things away from you and kill you to silence you."

Hearing this, it became smug again, feeling that it had the people of the Immortal Sect under its thumb.

But Liu Feng raised an eyebrow and said nonchalantly, "Go back and tell them we're going to die. We've taken such a big risk, and we might still die. Since we're going to die anyway, there's no need to pick a particular way to die."

Quanling was taken aback. "Who said there was any risk? Your immortal abode is very useful. It can conceal my aura, so those people can't find me."

"Oh, I forgot to tell you." Liu Feng thought of something, "This immortal abode is good, but it cannot be used for a long time. It has to be left empty for a while after each use, otherwise... it will eject all the living things inside."

“Yes, so we don’t have much time left. If the people from Qingyue Sect keep Sister Chen locked up and don’t let the people from Jiuyou Spring leave, then we will be forcibly kicked out of the Immortal Mansion sooner or later,” Hu Jiu said, his expression grave.

Quanling: !
It was completely devastated, "How could this happen!"

It thought this thing was like an ordinary Qiankun space, where one could enter and exit at will, and do whatever one pleased.

But now they're saying there's a time limit and we can't stay inside forever!
If that's the case, then wouldn't that mean...

It's easy to imagine that Qingyue Sect would be extremely strict in their checks on the disciples outside. If they were even more forceful, it wouldn't be difficult for them to be detained for ten days or half a month.

Anyway, they're just locked up, and their lives aren't at risk. Compared to this precious spring spirit, locking up a few people is a trivial matter, not worth mentioning at all.

The more Quanling thought about it, the more panicked she became.

"So you know now." Liu Feng looked at it. "There's a big difference between us confessing voluntarily and them finding out on their own. If I release you voluntarily, Qingyue Sect might think we were coerced by you and release us. So tell me, should we take this risk for you and gamble on it?"

Quanling felt that... this statement was correct.

If they were to hand themselves over in order to protect themselves, the Qingyue Sect would most likely not take their lives, and might even give them a bunch of gifts just to maintain appearances.

But if Qingyue Sect doesn't release them by the appointed time, and they are forcibly ejected from the Immortal Mansion and thus discovered... then not only will they be imprisoned, but they will also suffer the same fate.

The problem now is that if they are willing to gamble and wait, there is still a chance that the Qingyue Sect will let them leave.

But if they hand themselves over now, then there will be no hope at all!
After figuring out the current situation, Quanling realized that these people, not herself, were in a dominant position!
"I won't let you suffer a loss." Quanling said through gritted teeth, "Don't hand me over. Take a gamble with me. If you are really ejected, I will plead for you and do my best to save your lives. If we can leave safely, I will use the essence of the spiritual spring to enhance your cultivation as a reward."

The source of the spiritual spring is its core, where spiritual energy is strongest, and its benefits are far more than ten times those in the sixth region!
These words stirred something in everyone's heart, but they exchanged glances and remained silent.

They are waiting, waiting for someone to make a statement.

[Tsk, the origin is certainly a good thing, but it is the most precious thing in itself. To neglect the essential and pursue the trivial is the most foolish thing to do!]

[Instead of seeking some kind of origin, let it remain within our Immortal Comes Sect, and acknowledge the Immortal Comes Sect as its master!] [There will likely be no other place that can grant it freedom, allowing it to roam unchecked, but our Immortal Comes Sect can do just that!]

Upon hearing this, everyone's breathing became rapid!
Leave the spiritual spring at the Immortal Sect?
Is this okay?
Why not!

Their Immortal Sect is also very large, but over the years, due to the decreasing number of disciples, many places have been abandoned.

Putting everything else aside, just look at the back mountain; it's a place where you can stay.

As for the spiritual spring, it is divided into two parts: the main body and the source.

The body is the external "spring," while the origin is the essence and blood, which is also the "spirit."

The loss of its original body is a loss, but not a serious one. It can still accumulate power to recreate its original body.

But if the source is gone, then the spirit will also disappear, and it will be no different from an ordinary spiritual spring.

Just as a cultivator possesses both a physical body and a divine consciousness, if the physical body dies, the cultivator can use their divine consciousness to seize another body and live anew. However, if the divine consciousness is gone, even if the body is alive, it is merely an empty shell.

Of course, this method of possessing and changing bodies is generally regarded as an evil art and is not tolerated by the traditional cultivation world.

The Nine Nether Spring Spirit wanted to leave Qingyue Sect because Qingyue Sect had various restrictions and a mountain-protecting formation. Neither its main body nor its origin could escape; it could only do so with the help of external objects.

However, the Immortal Sect is different; no one intends to control it. As a spiritual spring, its true form needs a place to reside, so why not leave it with the Immortal Sect?

As for the origin, go wherever you want to go, let it be.

Although the concentration of spiritual energy will be reduced if there is no original spiritual spring, so what?
This is a spiritual spring; even if only the original body is there, it's still a huge profit!

Once Liu Feng and the others understood this, they immediately began to admire Mo Jiuwei.

That's a brilliant method!
Immediately, Liu Feng organized his thoughts and told Quan Ling what they were thinking.

"...We don't have any grand formations in our sect. You're free to do as you please, come and go as you please. We won't interfere, nor do we have the ability to," Liu Feng said. "What do you think?"

If Quanling had heard this before recognizing that the people of the Immortal Sect were in a dominant position, she would have definitely turned her back on them and become furious.

But now it knows that it still needs to rely on them, and they are really willing to risk their lives to help it.

So it's perfectly reasonable for them to ask for some benefits.

"What if I get tired of my original body and want to move to another place?" it asked. "Will you still let me leave then?"

This wasn't really a request for their consent, but rather a test of their attitude.
