After an incense stick of time, when Lu Xunhuan slowly and stealthily reached a distance of twenty feet from the pit and hid in the dense forest, a large group of people had already arrived at the edge of the pit.

The leader of Dengtian Sect stared at the corpse of the leader of Wuji Sect for a while, and his mood was extremely bad.

Last night, the two of them encountered a ghost. After he ran away, he didn't expect that the leader of Wuji Sect would die here, so he didn't even turn his head back.

He looked at the bruise on the neck of the Wuji Sect leader and thought, was that left by a ghost pinching his neck?

Regardless of whether he was strangled to death by a ghost or not, how would he explain the death at Dengtianmen?

He was upset for a while and asked his disciples, "Where are the disciples of Wuji Sect?"

Next to him, Senior Brother Hao replied, "Looks like he got scared and ran away?"

The head of Dengtian Sect frowned, stroked his beard and thought for a while, then asked, "Where is Lu Xunhuan?"

Brother Hao replied, "I don't know when he left the mountain last night, and he didn't go back to sleep. I don't know where he went."

The head of the Dengtian Sect said, "He has made great progress. This is cause for celebration. If you see him, please ask him to come and see me."

Senior Brother Hao bowed his head and said, "Yes."

Lu Xunhuan hid twenty feet away and heard their conversation clearly.

He couldn't help but shook his head. Was he pretending nothing happened?

Well, then, everyone pretends.

An hour later, the sun had risen high in the sky, and Lu Xunhuan went to the small martial arts training ground again.

He stood in the middle of the arena and shouted, "Black Chicken Sect, are there still those who are not convinced? If you are not convinced, come out and compete again."

Senior Brother Hao came over upon hearing the voice: "Junior Brother Lu, good morning."

Lu Xunhuan nodded slightly: "Good morning, Senior Brother Hao."

Brother Hao walked up to him and lowered his voice: "Master asked you to go see him."

Lu Xun Huan asked, "Could it be that I beat Jian yesterday, and Master wants to punish me?"

Senior Brother Hao shook his head and said, "Probably not. Master just said that your strength has improved, which is cause for celebration."

Lu Xun Huan pretended to be relieved: "That's good, I'll go right away."

After saying this, he took a step forward and walked towards the main hall of Dengtianmen.

Senior Brother Hao caught up with him and asked quietly, "Junior Brother Lu, is that Heaven and Earth Spiritual Cave you mentioned actually useful?"

Lu Xun Huan didn't even turn his head and just replied, "Of course it works."

Senior Brother Hao said, "But the Wuji Sect's leader lay in bed all night last night. Not only did he not improve, he actually died in there."

Lu Xun Huan stopped and pretended to be very surprised: "What, dead?"

Senior Brother Hao whispered, "Yes, it's been buried all night, so it's already dead."

Lu Xun Huan looked up at the blue sky and said, "Could it be that... the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Cave also has to be set to a certain time, and if the time is missed, it will be useless?"

Senior Brother Hao looked bewildered: "But what time is it?"

Lu Xunhuan shook his head: "How would I know? I don't understand..."

He started forward again, muttering to himself as he walked, "Could it be that I happened to arrive at the right time?"

Soon, the two arrived at the main hall.

Senior Brother Hao entered the hall first and bowed to the headmaster: "Master, Junior Brother Lu is here."

Lu Xunhuan then bowed, "Master."

The head of the Dengtian Sect looked at Lu Xunhuan and nodded slightly. "Master, I never expected that you would suddenly become so powerful. Tell me, how did you improve?"

Lu Xun Huan pretended to be bewildered and said, "I don't know exactly what happened. Anyway, after waking up in that pit, I found that my strength was higher than before, so I broke out of the ground."

The head of Dengtian Sect stroked his beard and was silent for a moment before he continued, "Your current strength has surpassed all of your senior brothers and sisters, as well as your junior brothers and sisters. Now that you have the ability, you should also take on some responsibilities."

He turned around and looked at the portrait of the Immortal Ancestor on the wall. "Master will be in seclusion for a while. While I'm away, you will be acting as the Sect Leader. You will take care of the affairs of the sect for me."

Lu Xunhuan thought to himself, this old guy is like a weasel paying a New Year's visit to a chicken, he definitely has no good intentions.

He evaded the question, "Master, how could I possibly know how to be a sect leader? Besides, no one respects me."

The head of the Dengtian Sect turned around again and grasped his shoulders: "Believe in yourself, you can do it. This is a good opportunity to train yourself. Later, when I pass away, you will be able to take on the important responsibilities of the sect."

He patted Lu Xunhuan on the shoulder: "It's decided."

After speaking to Lu Xunhuan, he turned to Senior Brother Hao and said, "You are my eldest disciple. You must take the lead in observing the sect's rules and cooperate with Lu Xunhuan in managing the entire sect."

Senior Brother Hao bowed and said, "Yes, Master."

The headmaster said nothing more, left the hall and left.

Senior Brother Hao asked Lu Xunhuan, "Junior Brother Lu, what do you think..."

Lu Xun Huan walked to the Immortal Ancestor's portrait, bowed three times, and said, "Since that's the case, I'll reluctantly accept this. From today on, I'll live in the main hall. If you have any questions, please come find me here."

Senior Brother Hao said, "Okay, Junior Brother Lu, the first thing to do is what to do with the body of the Wuji Sect's leader?"

Lu Xun Huan thought for a moment and said, "He was the leader of a sect after all. Unfortunately, he died in our sect. We can't act rashly. We should go to Changfeng Town and purchase a suitable coffin according to the sect leader's specifications."

Senior Brother Hao nodded: "What about after we buy the coffin?"

Lu Xun Huan said, "Keep it properly, try to keep it in a cool place to prevent it from decaying. Also, send a disciple to Wuji Sect to notify them to bring back their leader's body."

Senior Brother Hao nodded again: "Okay, Junior Brother Lu, I have another question."

Lu Xunhuan turned around and said, "Go ahead."

Senior Brother Hao said, "I'm afraid the Wuji Sect won't give up and will accuse us of killing their leader. What should we do then?"

Lu Xun Huan asked, "Why, do they still have the strength to attack up the mountain?"

Senior Brother Hao chuckled and said, "Now that Junior Brother Lu is here, it's unlikely that those rotten fish and shrimps will be able to kill them up the mountain, but..."

Lu Xunhuan: “Hmm…”

Senior Brother Hao said, "If they report it to the Immortal Friends Association, this matter will become a big deal. It will be difficult to find out the truth in a short time. My Dengtianmen will be caught in a vortex..."

Lu Xunhuan turned around again and looked at the portrait of the Immortal Ancestor.

In Lu Xunhuan's previous memories, the Immortal Friends Association seemed to be a large organization.

It has a headquarters, under which there are countless branches.

On the surface, the existence of the Immortal Friends Association is to maintain order in the fairy world.

For example, reconciling conflicts between sects.

For example, the World Immortal Friends Martial Arts Competition held every five years.

For example, punishing those sects that have done bad things.

For example, seeking justice for certain sects that have been harmed.

These are what the Immortal Friends Association should do on the surface.

But the Immortal Friends Association, as an organization spread all over the world, does more than just this.

They have penetrated into various industries such as commerce, agriculture, and handicrafts, and also do business to make money.

When outsiders see how hard they work to make money, they feel that it is not a fairy friends association, but a chamber of commerce.

The president of the Immortal Friends Association is very mysterious. In the 30 years since its establishment, few people know who he is.

When dealing with various affairs, the people you see are the local branch presidents or the general members under the branch presidents.

Such an organization has far-reaching tentacles.

Moreover, the president is extremely powerful and is one of the best masters in the world.

Almost all the immortal cultivation sects, regardless of size, tacitly acknowledged their existence and allowed the Immortal Friends Association to recruit members from various sects. When disputes arose between the sects, they also gave them face and allowed them to mediate.

Now that the leader of the Wuji Sect has died in the Dengtian Sect, if the disciples of the Wuji Sect report it to the Immortal Friends Association, and the Immortal Friends Association sends people to investigate, it will indeed be a troublesome matter.

After Lu Xun Huan pondered for a while, he asked Senior Brother Hao, "How did the Wuji Sect's leader die?"

Senior Brother Hao replied, "Last night, he and Master were the only ones left in that Heaven and Earth Spirit Cave. I guess he wanted to give it a try first, so let Master bury him..."

Lu Xun Huan turned around and asked, "So, it was Master who killed him?"

Senior Brother Hao said, "No, even if Master buried him, it must have been at his request. It can't be considered intentional murder..."

Lu Xun Huan pulled up a chair and sat down. "If it's not intentional, it's still manslaughter. Okay, I get it. Let's quickly arrange for someone to buy a coffin."

Senior Brother Hao said "OK" and turned to leave the hall.

After leaving the hall, he snorted softly: "Humph, he really thinks he is the leader, what a character!"
