Possessed by my father, I was reborn and became the supreme ruler.

"Besides, you are still in the stage of re-cultivating your cultivation technique. How can you neglect the important affairs of the sect for the sake of some personal feelings?"

"You're only at the Profound Meridian Realm, how can you compare to them? Get back now!"

In his previous life, Ye Yunjian was rather weak in front of Situ Jiuxiao, and he obeyed every order given by Situ Jiuxiao without fail. But now, his resolute face remained completely still.

Situ Jiuxiao, I never expected you to put on such a good show. You would humiliate me in public and trample on my dignity in this way. I will avenge the grudge from the past life and the hatred in this life! Ye Yunjian's face showed a look of hatred that no one had ever seen before.

"Ye Yunjian, are you disobeying the sect leader's decree?" The elder of the Dharma Sect's whip flashed with spiritual light, emitting blue flames that hissed at Ye Yunjian.

Ye Yunjian suddenly remembered that he had followed the instructions of the Dharma Sect elder and devoted himself to cultivation, but Situ Jiuxiao had put him under a restraint, resulting in his possession.

That whip, after he was possessed, had tortured his soul countless times, trying to force him to submit.

Back then, my second senior brother also went out after receiving a notice from Elder Fazong, but he never returned!

"Are you... trying to force me?" Ye Yunjian asked through gritted teeth, his tone cold. Although he was only at the Profound Vein Realm, he would not back down so easily.

"Fourth Junior Brother, be careful!" Seeing the elder of the Fa Sect raise his whip, Xiao Qingshuang hurriedly stepped forward and jumped in front of Ye Yunjian to block him.

With a loud crack, the whip, trailing a long blue flame, lashed out, leaving a mark on Xiao Qingshuang's back...

"Senior Sister!" Ye Yunjian rushed forward to support Xiao Qingshuang. At this moment, Song Lan, Shen Jinyan, and Bai Yueling also rushed over and surrounded Xiao Qingshuang.

"Fourth Junior Brother, your cultivation is not yet sufficient. Don't argue with them." A long, smoking whip mark was visible on Xiao Qingshuang's back where she had been struck by the whip.

Ye Yunjian felt as if his heart was being torn apart. He looked at the Dharma Sect elders, then at Nie Hanshan, and finally at Situ Jiuxiao: "Fine! Fine! Since it is the decision of Master and the elders, Ye Yunjian will obey!"

Meng Chuxi stood up. Although she knew about everything that had happened beforehand, Ye Yunjian's current behavior was quite different from what they had predicted.

"Ye Yunjian, you didn't know about this before today. Now that things have come to this, you... should just follow the arrangements of the sect leader and elders!" Meng Chuxi's expression was cold, and her fifth-level Xuan King realm made everyone afraid to look directly at her.

"Meng Chuxi, you are a guest in our outer sect. How can a guest order the host around!" Ye Yunjian scanned the entire room and said, "Since you look down on me because of my low cultivation level, I hereby announce that I will participate in your inner sect's small secret realm, and I will take first place!"

“Commendable courage, but a pity…” Nie Hanshan glanced at Ye Yunjian and sighed.

Meng Chuxi shook her head slightly and frowned: "Ye Yunjian, today's events have indeed embarrassed you. Fine, Elder Nie, let me be Ye Yunjian's inner sect assessment elder. I'm willing to give him a pass token. What do you think?"

Nie Hanshan stroked his short beard and laughed, "Very well, let's give Junior Nephew Ye a chance. Six months from now, our inner sect's small secret realm will welcome Junior Nephew Ye!"

"No! Meng Chuxi, I hope that six months from now, you can truly test me with your strength in front of the small secret realm. I want to use my real skills to pass your test!" Ye Yunjian's face turned red. He was not begging for charity.

Meng Chuxi smiled, pinched her fingers, and with a click, a golden access token flew into Ye Yunjian's hand. Ye Yunjian caught it and played with it for a moment.

"I'll accept this pass! Farewell!"

After saying that, Ye Yunjian immediately left. Meng Chuxi was also stunned. She had always thought that everyone doted on her. This time, she had been very generous to Ye Yunjian, and he should be extremely grateful.

But Ye Yunjian's current appearance was as if she owed him something. She was furious, and the sword at her waist suddenly trembled and was drawn from its sheath. Although only a section of it was drawn, the sound of the sword reverberating made everyone in the hall stunned.

Who is this usually quiet and reserved young man who is so ungrateful? Even a swordsman can be so imposing.

Ye Yunjian had already stepped outside. Meng Chuxi was about to activate her cultivation level when a woman in purple blocked her way.

The woman in purple looked at her, and suddenly a purple flame burned fiercely in her eyes. Although her aura was not as strong as Meng Chuxi's, she was still at the Xuan King realm. At this moment, she revealed a purple jade compass in her hand, which immediately emitted thousands of rays of light.

The radiance was shaped like a wheel, rotating in six directions. Around the purple flames were hideous faces of demons, Yama, and Dharma King, supported by four palms. Then, three halos began to emerge from the inside out, revealing a world of purple flames.

Meng Chuxi was shocked: "Profound King Realm, Six Paths of Reincarnation?" Her body trembled violently, and the faces of those around her showed fear. They stopped making any further moves, and the immortal sword was immediately sheathed...

"Qing Shuang! Stop!" Situ Jiuxiao's expression changed drastically, and he sternly dissuaded him, "We are all disciples of the Xuanhuo Sect, why bother?"

Ye Yunjian left Xuanhuo Hall in despair and slowly walked around the sect. He looked at the steep cliffs around him along the mountain path. This place was located in Xuanhuo Mountain, and the purple Xuanhuo that was known as the eternal flame was burning fiercely at the top of the mountain.

"So that's how it is... I remember taking good care of her when she was little. People still have to rely on themselves!" Although he knew that the inner sect would be destroyed on the night the sect competition ended in nine months, the boy seemed to understand a lot. Unconsciously, he had already returned to his Spirit Fire Cave.

The underground fire in the cave paused slightly as he entered. Ye Yunjian stared at the fire, gritting his teeth and punching and slapping the wall in frustration. Although he had cultivated for over fifty years in his previous life and possessed a certain level of inner strength, the humiliation he suffered after being reborn still felt like his skin was being scorched by flames, causing him unbearable pain…

"I will avenge this humiliation!" Looking at his fists, which were already a bloody mess, he let out a long roar that echoed throughout the Spirit Fire Cave, and the Xuanzun Jade Key flew out as well.

With a click, it seemed as if a door had been opened.

"Haha, young man, what's bothering you?"

Just as Ye Yunjian was feeling distressed, the old man's strange voice came from the Earth Fire Cave again, and then the Earth Fire Barrier reappeared around him.

Composing himself, Ye Yunjian turned to be on guard. The Xuanzun Jade Key hadn't been retrieved yet; he shouldn't be able to come out yet…

"Haha, don't worry, I can still talk to you even if you don't use the jade slip."

Ye Yunjian flicked his right index finger, and the Earth Fire Cave shook slightly. He quickly arrived at the entrance of the Earth Fire Cave.
