I have the face of a great demon.

Upon hearing Liu Xingchen say he wanted to return to the Tianhe Sect, Ye Sisi and Tie Zhu became anxious.

An anxious look appeared on Tie Zhu's honest face.

"Brother Xingchen, what are you doing? He Taichou, that bad guy, is in the Tianhe Sect. If we go back, aren't we just walking into a trap?"

Ye Sisi quickly chimed in, "Yes, Xingchen, we've both witnessed He Taichou's despicable methods. He even dares to harm his own sect's disciples. It's too dangerous for us to go back."

Liu Xingchen looked at the two of them and knew that their concerns were not unfounded, but he already had a plan in mind.

He gently waved his hand, signaling the two of them to calm down.

“Listen to me, I know He Taichou is in danger, but we can’t just run away like this.”

"We still need to get revenge on He Taichou, don't we?"

When it comes to revenge, their reactions are quite different.

Tie Zhu clenched his fists, his voice tinged with excitement.

"Yes, I want to get revenge on this villain. It was the Tianhe Sect that killed my master. He Taichou is the worst among them. I must get revenge on him."

A vengeful glint also flashed in Ye Sisi's eyes.

“Revenge? That’s right, I want revenge. Our Wuhua Sect was harmed by He Taichou, and I must avenge this blood feud.”

Liu Xingchen nodded: "That's right. To get revenge, we need to go back to the Tianhe Sect and continue our revenge plan. Only in the Tianhe Sect can we have a chance to cause chaos, so we must go back."

“But,” Ye Sisi said worriedly, “if we return to the Tianhe Sect, He Taichou will definitely try to kill us. What should we do then?”

Liu Xingchen, however, seemed confident. He smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, he won't dare to make a move."

Liu Xingchen's words startled both of them.

"Why?" Tie Zhu asked, puzzled.

"He Taichou is a hypocrite, but he is actually very wicked. The more virtuous a person is, the more he cares about his image and reputation."

"He followed us into the forbidden area of ​​Wuhua Sect, took the treasures, and that's one thing, but why did he have to kill us?"

"He just wanted to kill him to silence him, otherwise if we exposed his disgraceful act of stealing Wuhua Sect's treasures, his reputation would be ruined."

"This shows that He Taichou values ​​his reputation very much."

"Therefore, as long as we are within the Tianhe Sect, he won't dare to make a move. Otherwise, how would he explain to those inside and outside the sect his actions of killing his own disciples?"

Liu Xingchen's words made Ye Sisi's eyes light up: "That's right, he wouldn't dare to make a move if we were in the Tianhe Sect."

Tie Zhu was delighted to hear this: "Alright, then let's go back to the Tianhe Sect and have a good talk with him about why he attacked us in the forbidden area."

Liu Xingchen quickly waved his hand: "That won't do. We can't fall out with him on the spot. We have to deal with him and maintain a delicate balance. When the time comes, I'll go and tell him, 'Tiezhu, don't say a word.'"

Tie Zhu knew he was bad with words, so he smiled sheepishly and said that he would leave it to Liu Xingchen to decide.

Ye Sisi nodded. She knew Liu Xingchen had many schemes, so she would just listen to him.

Having made up their minds, the three of them immediately set off on their journey back to the Tianhe Sect.

However, when they arrived at the Tianhe Sect's mountain gate, they found that the sect had closed its gates again.

Upon discovering the great demon, he immediately sealed off the mountain gates—that's truly He Taichou's style.

Now they can't return to the Tianhe Sect.

"Then what do we do?" Tie Zhu asked.

Liu Xingchen said, "Let's go to the town to stay first, take good care of our injuries, and go back when the mountain gate opens."

So the three of them didn't linger and turned to head towards a nearby town.

They found a guesthouse that looked fairly clean and settled in for the time being.

In the inn, the three rested and slowly healed their injuries, waiting to see what would happen.

As for He Taichou, he was terrified and uneasy after escaping from the forbidden area.

He knew that if the great demon really caught up with him, he would probably not escape death.

In order to escape that terrifying place as quickly as possible, he did not hesitate to burn his own life essence to escape towards the Tianhe Sect at top speed.

Fearing that flying in the air would be discovered by the great demon, he simply did not take off, but instead traveled through the mountains and forests, using the terrain to cover his tracks.

He was in a panic the whole way, bumping into countless trees and trampling on countless bird nests and animal nests. He was on tenterhooks the whole way, but finally returned safely to the Tianhe Sect.

Upon arriving at Tianhe Sect, He Taichou found everything was fine and there was no sign of a great demon attacking. He immediately issued an order to seal the mountain gate.

"Sect Master, why have you closed the mountain gates again?"

Faced with the elders' questions, He Taichou said solemnly, "The great demon is attacking. We must close the mountain gate, put everyone on high alert, set up a great formation, and deal with the powerful enemy."

"What? The great demon is back again? Really?"

The big villain has appeared so many times that everyone is starting to have doubts.

He Taichou angrily said, "You ignorant fools! I, the sect master, personally encountered the great demon. How could it be fake? I risked my life to escape. Look, I even burned my life essence."

The elders were shocked. Even the sect leader had to burn his life essence to escape. This time, the great demon must be real.

They immediately sprang into action, following He Taichou's orders to close the mountain gate and set up defensive measures.

The atmosphere within the sect suddenly became tense, and the disciples sprang into action, setting up a defensive formation.

Upon hearing this news, Liu Qingfeng immediately realized the seriousness of the situation. He hurriedly sought out He Taichou to learn more details.

"Sect Leader He, you said you encountered a great demon, is that true?"

"It's true."

"where?"

"It's located on the site of the former Wuhua Gate."

"Huh, why would Sect Leader He go there?"

"Well, that's not important now. The most urgent thing is to quickly notify the ten major immortal sects to come to our aid. We can discuss other matters in detail when the reinforcements arrive."

"Alright." Liu Qingfeng knew the situation was urgent, so he stopped asking questions and immediately sent a message to the sect for help via jade slip.

As expected, the jade slip sent by Liu Qingfeng received the attention of the ten major immortal sects, and three days later, experts from the ten major immortal sects arrived.

He Taichou immediately opened the mountain gate and welcomed the many experts, led by Master Yuchen, into the Tianhe Sect.

"Sect Leader He, where is the Great Demon?"

“I saw it with my own eyes at the site of the old Wuhua Gate.”

How did they end up there? Master Yu Chen frowned, but didn't ask any further questions. He then led a group of experts, guided by He Tai Chou, to the old site of Wu Hua Men to search for the whereabouts of the Great Demon.

With the arrival of the Ten Great Immortal Sects, the threat of the Great Demon was eliminated, and the Heavenly River Sect's gates were opened.

After everyone left, Liu Xingchen and his two companions went up the mountain and successfully returned to the Tianhe Sect.

The other disciples were all extremely envious that the three of them had escaped the crisis because they were out during the attack of the great demon.

It's important to understand that although no one was injured during this attack by the great demon, the constant preparations day and night were still exhausting.
