The Black Lotus Reborn: The Entire Sect Kneels and Begs for My Forgiveness

But the disciples in the sect didn't think so.

Biluo Sect is a major sect of cultivation. Humans and demons are on different paths. A demon like Long Jiuqing should be killed. Everyone has the right to kill him.

Many disciples made things difficult for him, and wherever he went, disciples called him a monster.

Even after he grew up, some people spread rumors in front of him, saying that Old Wang brought him back to the Biluo Sect so that he could be his mount.

Long Jiuqing was incredibly proud. In a fit of rage, he beat several disciples who were gossiping to death. This enraged the entire Biluo Sect, and the elders and disciples all reported to the authorities that Long Jiuqing should be executed.

"At that time, everyone in the sect wanted to execute him. In order to save his life, I used the Eight Desolate Imprisoning Heaven Formation to imprison him in the deepest part of the Cold Abyss."

I also received my just deserts. After forcibly setting up the Eight Desolate Imprisoning Heaven Array, my cultivation level dropped back to the Core Formation Realm, and I was relegated to this Hidden Dao Pavilion as a manager. A hundred years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Over the years, he must have hated me to the core, and I've felt terribly guilty. I shouldn't have brought him back then; he's ruined you."

When Old Wang mentioned Long Jiuqing, his old face became wrinkled, and his back became increasingly hunched.

He was once the sect's top prodigy and the designated candidate for sect leader, but after that incident, he aged overnight and became a laughing stock in the sect.

"So Old Wang is Wang Changkong. Does Long Jiuqing really hate him? Maybe he used to hate him, but when Long Jiuqing swept across the myriad realms and wiped out countless sects, he spared the Biluo Sect. This may be because of Lu Jinxin, but it may also be because of Old Wang."

Ye Yunong thought for a moment and comforted Old Wang.

"Senior, please don't misunderstand. My spiritual root being destroyed has nothing to do with Long Jiuqing. I only had a brief encounter with him before he broke the formation and left."

Ye Yunong recounted the whole story, half-truthfully and half-falsely.

She told Old Wang about how her master had struck her and shattered all five of her spiritual roots, but she didn't mention a word about how she helped break the Eight Desolate Imprisoning Heaven Formation.

Upon hearing this, Old Wang cursed, "How could there be such a heartless master in the world? Little brat, if you don't want to go back to Qinglian Peak, come to my Hidden Dao Pavilion."

Master Qinglian has good cultivation, but his character is flawed.

His methods are not suitable for you. Your spiritual roots are now completely destroyed. Spiritual roots are something that can only be used once. Once they are gone, they are gone forever.

However, when I treated you, I found that your bones and muscles are in very good condition; you would be a good candidate for physical cultivation.

Little did Old Wang know that Ye Yunong's physical constitution was originally quite ordinary. After all, she had been displaced and malnourished since childhood. Among the members of Qinglian Peak, the one with the best physical constitution was her fifth junior brother.

But ever since Ye Yunong was reborn and returned, she destroyed her five spiritual roots and gave birth to a chaotic spiritual root. Her bones and muscles were transformed by the chaotic spiritual root and became much stronger. Now her bones and muscles are even stronger than those of her fifth junior brother.

"Thank you for your kindness, senior. You reap what you sow. My karmic ties with Qinglian Peak are not yet severed, and I do not wish to trouble you any further."

Ye Yunong knew that although Master Qinglian did not value her highly, he was a man who cared a lot about his reputation. Master Qinglian would never allow Ye Yunong to betray her sect.

"In that case, I will have the sect leader transfer you here to help me manage the Hidden Dao Pavilion, and I will give you an extra ten spirit stones a month."

Old Wang also noticed Ye Yunong's concerns and secretly praised her for being sensible.

After saying that, he took out a book and placed it in front of Ye Yunong.

"This is a set of Mountain-Shaking Fist techniques, a third-grade martial arts manual. I obtained it by chance when I was traveling around back then."

With a minor mastery of the Mountain-Shaking Fist, one can shatter rocks; with a major mastery, one can break metal; and with a perfect mastery, one can shake mountains.

"If you cultivate diligently, and succeed in your studies, your future achievements may not be much less than those of your pretty-boy junior brother."

According to the sect's rules, even if Ye Yunong's spiritual root was ruined and she switched to body cultivation, she could not immediately access third-grade martial arts. This was clearly Old Wang giving her special training.

She thanked Old Wang solemnly.

Old Wang yawned, left a few bottles of pills, and told Ye Yunong to rest by herself, as he was going to catch up on his sleep.

Old Wang was too tired and forgot to tell Ye Yunong that he had once taught this Mountain-Shaking Fist to Long Jiuqing...

For the next few days, Ye Yunong remained at the Zangdao Sect.

She ignored all outside affairs and focused solely on cultivation, practicing the Chaos Three Pure Ones Technique in the morning and the Mountain-Shaking Fist in the afternoon.

At night, she would occasionally take out that Ziwei Star hairpin.

She wanted to see if she could enter that sea of ​​stars and fish again.

However, after that last time, the Ziwei Star Hairpin never emitted any light again and remained silent.

Ye Yunong pondered that this Ziwei Star Hairpin couldn't be used every day; after each fishing trip, it needed to rest for a while.

In the blink of an eye, a few more days passed. Following Junce, Qinglian Peak sent its fourth and fifth junior brothers over.

The two also brought news that the senior brother in charge had been killed, supposedly for robbery and murder.

The day after his death, someone discovered that he had embezzled the disciples' spirit stones and seized spiritual treasures. Master Qinglian personally went to the Internal Affairs Hall to reason with him, and the Internal Affairs Hall apologized and offered condolences.

As for the murderer, opinions vary, and the senior brother in charge has offended too many people.

Some suspect that it was done by people from Qinglian Peak, but there is no evidence.

As for Ye Yunong, with her spiritual roots completely destroyed, no one suspected her at all.

This matter is over.

The message was delivered, but Old Wang still wouldn't let the two in. He grabbed a large broom and chased them out.

Upon learning that the matter with the senior brother in charge had come to an end, Ye Yunong breathed a sigh of relief and planned to dispose of all the spiritual treasures and spirit stones she had obtained from him.

After leaving the Cold Abyss, Ye Yunong discovered that after cultivating her Chaotic Spiritual Root to the eighth level of Qi Refining, it would consume a large amount of spiritual energy, and she would have to use a spirit array to cultivate.

Setting up a spirit array requires mid-grade spirit stones and one or two suitable spirit treasures. To exchange for mid-grade spirit stones, you need to go to the market.

The Biluo Sect occupies a continuous mountain range, and at the foot of the mountain peaks are several small villages.

The market is located between several small villages. Ordinary people and disciples from the inner and outer sects of the Biluo Sect come and go here. In the market, you must use spirit stones to trade.

As soon as Ye Yunong arrived outside the market, she saw a familiar figure walking into the market.

"Fourth Junior Brother?"

Ye Yunong saw her fourth junior brother holding a box. The box looked very familiar to her. She recognized it as hers. Inside the box were the mid-level spiritual treasures that she had received from the senior brother in charge when she received her monthly salary.

Ye Yunong was punished by Master Qinglian to guard the Cold Abyss. The incident happened suddenly, and she did not have any belongings. All her things were still in the hut.

Seeing her fourth junior brother Qin Nanhuai enter one of the shops, Ye Yunong felt a little itchy to punch him. She bought a cone-shaped hat from a roadside stall and walked towards the shop.
