The whole family went mad, but the junior sister turned the tables and her luck soared.

Wan Nian actually really disliked the Wuji Dao Sect group.

Back in the Rakshasa Illusion Sea, Lu Yiguang immediately threatened to kill him, forcing Qian Sui to abandon him there.

If it weren't for Yun Yici's cleverness in deceiving the people of Wuji Dao Sect, he would probably have been killed by that group of fake cultivators as soon as he came out.

Upon hearing Yun Yici's request, Wan Nian was initially reluctant, thinking it meant helping the Wuji Dao Sect.

He remembered Yun Yici's kindness, and although unwilling, he still agreed.

It was only after Shen Huaichuan explained the meaning to him that Wan Nian became happy.

He secretly imitated Ying Ren's manner, determined to take advantage of Ying Ren's power.

When he met Lu Yiguang today, the other party was indeed very respectful to him, and there was no trace of the arrogant look he had shown on the day he shouted for a fight.

Wan Nian was overjoyed, but due to the personality of the transformed female cultivator, he couldn't show it. He could only secretly wink at Yun Yici.

Fearing that Lu Yiguang would notice something was amiss, Yun Yici took the initiative to say, "I didn't know you were here, senior. Why don't we discuss this in the main hall?"

The imposter, who had been disguised as Chao Feng for thousands of years, said reservedly and coldly, "Alright."

Yun Yici led the way, with Wan Nian following behind.

Lu Yiguang walked at the back. She secretly raised her eyes to look at the female cultivator in front of her from behind, but as soon as she looked, the other woman turned around with lightning speed in her eyes.

Lu Yiguang's forehead was sweating, and he quickly lowered his head, not daring to look again for fear of offending the unknown female cultivator from the Lingwei Sect.

The three of them soon arrived at the hall where the Xie residence was held for discussions.

Lu Yiguang was a little puzzled as he hadn't seen anyone else along the way, but Yun Yici explained, "My master and my senior brother went out of the city to cultivate earlier, only a few other senior brothers are here."

The truth is, Mu Yunjian fought with Ning Tinglan, and Ying Ren saw the injuries on his face.

Ying Ren said that Mu Yunjian's ability to fight a human cultivator in his twenties so well with bare hands was a disgrace to demon cultivators.

Therefore, the special training started ahead of schedule, and before dawn, Ying Ren took Mu Yunjian out of the city for special training.

Wen Fuyue was unsure of Ying Ren's methods and worried that his teaching style was too harsh and excessive, so she decided to go with him on the first day to see what was going on.

As for Rong Xuan and Ning Tinglan, they stayed indoors unless there was something to do.

Xie Qianjue obtained an Eighth-Rank Nascent Soul Fruit, which was three ranks higher than he had expected. To avoid trouble, he should not take it now, so he is busy helping Xie Shiqing to form his core as soon as possible.

The morning light is perfect for cultivation; I reckon the two brothers are practicing their swordsmanship in their courtyard.

After hearing this, Lu Yiguang's inner turmoil dissipated.

She was hesitant about whether to ask Wen Fuyue to come and help quell the situation, as she felt somewhat insecure without an elder present.

However, it's obvious that their Wuji Dao Sect will have to humble themselves and act subserviently later, and the fewer people who know about their embarrassing moment, the better.

Yun Yici said, "Don't worry, my master's friend is staying here temporarily. He is a kind and steady person. I will go and invite him over."

This elder, of course, is Shen Huaichuan.

Lu Yiguang had never met Shen Huaichuan before. He was somewhat surprised to see Yun Yici bringing a handsome blind young man over, but he dared not waste any more time.

She took out the communication talisman bestowed upon her by the sect leader from her sleeve and then infused it with spiritual power.

As soon as the communication talisman connected, Lu Yiguang quickly informed the sect leader of Wuji Dao Sect about the situation.

The male voice on the other end of the communication talisman was extremely excited: "Really?"

Wan Nian held up his delicate chin, refusing to respond, waiting for the sect leader of Wuji Dao Sect to kneel down and apologize to him.

Upon receiving Lu Yiguang's affirmative reply, the sect leader of Wuji Dao Sect on the other end of the communication talisman immediately regained his composure: "I am He Qufei, the current sect leader of Wuji Dao Sect. May I ask your name, friend?"

Wan Nian, aloof and arrogant, said, "My name is Chao Feng."

Upon hearing Qin Bing's voice from the other side, He Qufei skipped the small talk and said directly, "Last year, our sect's elder, Li Wanying, inadvertently offended your sect, and our sect has already taken disciplinary action against him."

"Out of a desire to make amends, I am willing to compensate your sect with ten million spirit stones, ten Heaven-rank magic artifacts, and thirty Grade 9 spirit herbs."

"In exchange for our sect's disciples' normal access to the outer pavilion, and for forging a friendship with your sect, what do you think, Fellow Daoist Chaofeng?"

Yun Yici was still thinking about how incredibly wealthy the Wuji Dao Sect was when she heard half of it.

She originally thought that getting five million spirit stones would be pretty good.

Upon further inquiry, it became clear that the leader of the Wuji Dao Sect was indeed shrewd and calculating. In addition to requiring his disciples to enter the outer pavilion as normal, he also wanted to establish closer ties with the Lingwei Sect and other sects.

If Lingwei Sect were truly involved, once they agreed, Old Deng would propose an exchange plan, sending elite disciples to Lingwei Sect to learn their skills.

Fortunately, they had already discussed the appropriate response with Wan Nian.

Wan Nian recalled Shen Huaichuan and Yun Yici's previous instructions: multiply all the conditions offered by Wuji Dao Sect by two, and if there were anything other than spirit stones, multiply the spirit stones by three, and don't accept anything else.

Wan Nian's mind raced, and then she said with an air of nobility and aloofness, "We don't need magic weapons and spiritual herbs. Thirty million spirit stones will be enough for your sect's disciples to freely enter and leave the outer pavilion."

Yun Yici was somewhat envious of the Heavenly Rank magic artifacts and Grade 9 spiritual herbs, but she couldn't take them.

The current tricks might fool Lu Yiguang, but if he gets recognized at the Wuji Dao Sect's headquarters, he'll really end up losing more than he gains.

Besides, if you take it and use it later, it will be recognized and cause endless trouble. It's better to exchange it for some spirit stones.

Surprisingly, He Qufei hesitated for a moment, then agreed.

Ten Heavenly Rank magical artifacts and thirty Grade 9 spiritual herbs, added together, actually amount to about 20 million spirit stones.

If people from the Lingwei Sect come to choose, the value might even far exceed 20 million spirit stones.

Although spending 30 million spirit stones at once is a bit painful, the Wuji Dao Sect's resources are not yet at the point of being crippled.

"When does Fellow Daoist Chaofeng plan to come and collect those thirty million spirit stones? Or should I deliver them to you personally?"

really!

It's not so easy to fleece the Wuji Dao Sect.

With a calm and composed demeanor, he said, "Put the spirit stones into the storage box at the entrance of the outer pavilion, and I will come to retrieve them."

"Once the spirit stones arrive, your sect's disciples will be able to freely enter and exit the outer pavilion."

After Wan Nian finished speaking, he stood up and, with an air of "no room for discussion," flew away on his sword.

Lu Yiguang felt that the peace talks had gone too smoothly, but he was also worried about the demands made by the other side.

With Chaofeng gone, she had no reason to stay. Besides, Qin Zhen and Li Tanqian were still in the outer pavilion, and they would definitely worry if they didn't see her.

Yun Yici saw Lu Yiguang off at the door. When she turned around, she saw that Wan Nian had returned to his original appearance, and the Chao Feng sword in his hand was humming.

Wan Nian loosened his grip, and Chao Feng flew towards Yun Yici. Yun Yici immediately put it back into the Lingwei Seal.

Wan Nian said with a smug look, "I think we underestimated it. We should have said fifty million. That's called robbing the rich to help the poor."

Shen Huaichuan shook his head and said, "Leave some room for maneuver in your actions, so you can meet again in the future."

Given the current conditions, Wuji Dao Sect can afford them, though it's a bit painful. The punishment and warning have been effective, but it won't lead to a complete breakdown in relations.
