Mythical Cultivation

Chapter 189 Forced into the Palace

In fact, Huang Hao knew very well that there were indeed some extremely important and unspeakable secrets in the inheritance of Shenmu Sect, but due to various reasons, he could not reveal them all. He could only reveal a little clue to the people around him through these euphemistic and implicit words.

"If Elder Dongfang really refuses to back down and engages in a fierce battle with those major forces, we'll be in danger!" This thought suddenly flashed through Zhao Xiaohai's mind, and his heart tightened. After all, they are disciples of the Qingyun Sect. If those elders completely disregard the moral principles of the martial arts world and rely on their profound cultivation to bully the weak, wouldn't their situation be precarious? They might be swatted to death like a fly if they're not careful.

Hearing Zhao Xiaohai's words, Wu Ming, standing by, suddenly woke up. Previously, he'd been preoccupied with the ultimate fate of the Shenmu Sect's inheritance and the decisions the elders of the major factions and Elder Dongfang would make. He hadn't considered how to ensure their own safety amidst the impending uproar. After all, if a fight truly erupted, a group of mere cultivators, barely at the Qi Refining stage, would be wiped out in the blink of an eye in a devastating battle unleashed by those formidable ancestors who had already entered the Golden Core stage.

Let's not talk about what Wu Ming and his friends were discussing, what the other disciples were saying, or what Zhang Tianming, the protagonist of this incident, thought. But Dongfang Yishan was angry.

Seeing the aggressive and aggressive expressions of these six people, Elder Dongfang was immediately furious and laughed loudly, looking up to the sky: "Humph! It seems that my Qingyun Sect has never taken action against you all these years, adhering to the principle of peaceful coexistence. However, you have forgotten my Qingyun Sect's former great reputation and actually regarded my Qingyun Sect as a soft persimmon to be squeezed at will. Do you all want to step on it? The inheritance obtained by my Qingyun Sect members belongs to my Qingyun Sect. Why should I explain it to you? If so, don't blame me for being cruel and ruthless!"

After saying this, Elder Dongfang exuded a terrifyingly powerful aura, like a volcano about to erupt, which could burst out with devastating energy at any time.

Elder Dongfang couldn't help but laugh out loud after hearing what those people said. You know, for nearly a hundred years, the Qingyun Sect had been focused on dealing with the rampaging monsters within the county and the enemies lurking on the border. They simply had no time to care about the other major forces in Qingjiang County. Furthermore, the Qingyun Sect had always considered these forces to be mediocre and posed no real threat, so they didn't pay much attention to them.

However, what Elder Dongfang never expected was that it was precisely because of this negligence that these people actually developed some inappropriate thoughts, and even felt that the Qingyun Sect was just in name only.

At this moment, Zhang Tianming, who had been silent by the side, suddenly stepped forward. With a look of guilt on his face, he said to Elder Dongfang, "Elder Dongfang, how about this? I am willing to hand over the inheritance of the Shenmu Sect and share it with the six major forces. Please don't make enemies with the six major forces because of me."

It turned out that when Zhang Tianming first saw the six major factions uniting to force Elder Dongfang to share his inheritance, he secretly suspected that Elder Dongfang might compromise under pressure. After all, offending the six major factions for a small figure like him was not a good deal in any way.

At that time, he had even prepared himself mentally. If the elders really forced him to hand over the inheritance, he could give up a part of it first to deal with it. As the saying goes, when you live under someone's roof, you have to bow your head!

However, from now on, he would no longer have the slightest sense of belonging to the Qingyun Sect, and deep down, he would gradually drift away from the Qingyun Sect and part ways with it. After all, if a sect couldn't even guarantee and protect the interests that its own disciples deserved, how could it expect anyone to willingly serve it?

However, after hearing the discussions of his fellow disciples, his thoughts gradually became clearer. Although he was fortunate enough to receive this precious inheritance, without the sect's careful cultivation, how could he have achieved what he has today? Now, because of this inheritance, not only had the elders and seniors of the sect been implicated, but even a group of fellow disciples were involved. He felt a sense of guilt.

Furthermore, Elder Dongfang never made any concessions or compromises, and would rather openly confront and fight against powerful forces for him. He really couldn't bear to see the sect suffer any losses because of him, so he stood up and expressed his attitude and position.

The six masters and Dongfang Yishan, who were ready to fight, relaxed the tense atmosphere a little after seeing Zhang Tianming appear and speak.

The six elders from the six major factions couldn't help but feel delighted after hearing Zhang Tianming's words. After all, avoiding physical conflict was the best option. Despite their furious expressions, their faces looked like they were ready to fight at any moment. Deep down, they were also reluctant to easily enter into a feud with the prestigious Qingyun Sect.

Putting aside the fact that the Qingyun Sect, the dominant power in Qingjiang County, had rarely taken action in recent years, they speculated that it might be due to a lack of successors and a gradual decline in strength. However, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse, and their strength was likely still superior. Furthermore, Dongfang Yishan, as an elder of the Qingyun Sect, was also more powerful than them. Otherwise, they wouldn't have combined all six of them to dare to attack Dongfang Yishan.

If Qingyun Sect had not obtained the inheritance of the ancient Shenmu Sect, its strength would have been greatly improved. At that time, the several major factions would have had no room to survive, otherwise they would not have resorted to such a desperate measure.

Their alliance this time was for two reasons: one was to get a share of the Shenmu Sect's inheritance, and the other was to test the Qingyun Sect's strength.

"Zhang Tianming, as a disciple of my Qingyun Sect, I am very pleased that you think this way. But as a disciple of my Qingyun Sect, you have obtained the inheritance and brought honor to my Qingyun Sect. Naturally, my Qingyun Sect must be responsible for you. How can we allow others to bully you? There is no need to say this anymore." Elder Dongfang naturally heard the meaning of Zhang Tianming's words and knew that this disciple was still loyal to the sect.
