Watching Ou Yezi’s receding figure, Li Xiaobai swallowed hard and thought, “Damn, this deity is too incredible, his arrogant demeanor flawless, emanating an overwhelming aura with every move he makes!”
The most crucial point is that his strength seems almost like cheating. We’re both at the Tribulation Crossing Stage, so why are you so exceptional?
Glancing at Liu Mang, who had now turned into a pool of blood, Li Xiaobai thought it was a pity, “Such a great expert, if used properly, could have provided me with a fair amount of Attribute Points.”
But now that he had been killed in an instant, it felt somewhat wasteful.
“Little Junior Brother, what should we do with these people?” Liu Jinshui asked.
“Do we even need to discuss this? Of course, we kill them. The Tribulation Crossing Stage evil cultivator just said he has a master. What if we let these people go and they bring their master for revenge?”
A murderous light flickered in Fourth Senior Brother Yang Chen’s eyes.
“Great heroes, spare our lives! We are willing to swear by our Inner Demons, we will never betray you in this life!” the cultivators became anxious when they heard this, and they all swore oaths by their Dao hearts.
To swear by the Dao heart is the most reliable method of oath-taking; even a slight violation would result in a backlash from the vow, which is the least of one’s worries. More importantly, one’s cultivation level would cease to advance from that life onward.
Therefore, making an oath by the Dao heart is the method most likely to gain trust in the Cultivation World.
“Brother Li, we can’t let them go. If it weren’t for your timely arrival, several of my sisters would’ve been defiled by these beasts!”
The disciples of the Immortal Feather Sect naturally objected, and even with the Inner Demon Oath, these people were still unforgivable.
Li Xiaobai pondered. Since everyone had already surrendered and raised the white flag, it wouldn’t be good to continue with a slaughter. How about temporarily taking these people in as laborers to contribute to the sect?
After discussing his thoughts with everyone, the Senior Brothers and Sisters also cooled down.
The sect was currently wounded and in need of aid. If these Nascent Soul Stage and Divinity Transformation Stage cultivators could serve as laborers and be loyal to the Immortal Feather Sect, not only would the sect’s strength be augmented, but it would also be beneficial for the development and construction of the sect without any disadvantage.
Li Xiaobai sheathed his sword, forced the evil cultivators to swear Inner Demon Oaths one by one – to be eternally loyal to the Immortal Feather Sect, never to defect, and never to act against the interests of the Immortal Feather Sect.
The cultivators regained their freedom, but the awe of Ou Yezi’s formidability was too strong. Even though Ou Yezi was gone, they didn’t dare harbor any thoughts of resistance, and one by one, they truly and sincerely made their oaths, swearing loyalty to the Immortal Feather Sect.
“Alright, stand aside for now. You will be assigned tasks later.”
Li Xiaobai waved his hand and then approached the Sect Leader of Immortal Feather Sect, feeling somewhat sentimental. A month ago, he was just Xiaobai, thinking the Sect Leader was so powerful. Now, in just a short month, he had become a significant character, capable of saving the sect.
The Sect Leader and all the Elders were full of sighs, and Feng Lingzi was especially moved.
“Xiaobai, to think that in only a month’s time, you have grown so much. I was not wrong about you; indeed, you are a once-in-a-lifetime genius!”
Li Xiaobai was speechless. Clearly, this bargain of a master used to always call him lazy and incessantly chided him, hoping he would improve – yet the change of face was so rapid.
“Master, it’s been days since we last met, and you still carry the same elegance. Now that your disciple has returned, the sect shall face no further troubles!”
…
Half an hour later, at the main peak.
The Sect Leader and all the Elders of the Immortal Feather Sect gathered in the grand hall, and the Brothers of Misty Peak and Feng Wuxie were also there.
“Xiaobai, I have grown old, and this sudden calamity has proven that I am no longer suitable to hold the reins of the sect’s power. Do you have any thoughts on the position of Sect Leader?”
“No, my goal is the Universe, and I will not stay put because of the position of Sect Leader. Moreover, there are better candidates within the sect,” Li Xiaobai said.
“Who is it?”
“Naturally, it’s Brother Feng.” Li Xiaobai pointed to Feng Wuxie, who was somewhat agitated beside him.
Hearing this, Feng Wuxie was stunned. The position of Sect Leader had always been his most coveted goal. The unexpected appearance of Li Xiaobai had been truly irritating to him. The treasures belonged to someone else, and now the Sect Leader was set to pass on the position to that same person.
This irritated Feng Wuxie greatly, and he felt a twinge of regret in his heart. If he had known this would happen, he should have been more resolute back in the Divine Beast Mountain Range and gotten rid of Li Xiaobai once and for all.
Now that he was no match for him, the thought of killing to snatch the treasures was impossible.
They should have been mortal enemies, yet now Li Xiaobai was speaking up for him, which gave him a strange feeling, as if his fist had struck cotton.
“Junior brother, you don’t need to speak for me,” Feng Wuxie said.
“Wuxie is indeed a fine seedling, the beloved disciple of the Great Elder, and his cultivation level surpasses mine. He is a good choice for Sect Leader!”
“From today on, I shall be the Supreme Elder, assisting Sect Leader Feng in managing the sect’s affairs. Is there any objection?”
The Sect Leader’s eyes brightened immediately and he made the decision on the spot. Feng Wuxie taking the position of Sect Master couldn’t be more fitting.
“No objections!”
Feng Wuxie’s heart was unsettled; he always felt as though he was living off someone else’s charity and that the position of Sect Leader was a favor from others, which left a bad taste in his mouth.
“What should we do if evil cultivators come knocking at our door again?” Ye Wushuang asked, voicing a concern that weighed on everyone’s minds.
The big bosses couldn’t possibly always be stationed at this small sect. If another straw-cloaked man-like evil cultivator appeared, they were likely to repeat their past mistakes.
“You don’t need to worry about that, I have a Teleportation Formation that can connect Holy Demon Sect with Immortal Feather Sect. If Immortal Feather Sect encounters any trouble in the future, they can use the Teleportation Formation to seek refuge within Holy Demon Sect,” Li Xiaobai assuaged.
This was something Li Xiaobai had long thought of.
There were many similar items available in the shop.
[Teleportation Formation: Set up a Teleportation Formation in two locations to create a spatial channel, allowing for immediate entry. (Each activation of the Teleportation Formation requires one high-grade Spirit Stone.) Price: 100 high-grade Spirit Stones.]
[Note: Maximum transmission distance (100,000 li).]
This was a two-way Teleportation Formation, perfectly suitable for use between Holy Demon Sect and Immortal Feather Sect.
The only slight issue was that this formation came only with the diagrams, and it needed to be constructed. However, the labor was already in place; with so many evil cultivator experts at work, it was believed that the construction would be completed quickly.
“Here’s the diagram. Brother Feng, please arrange the specifics,” Li Xiaobai said as he handed the diagram to a somewhat dazed Feng Wuxie. It seemed Feng Wuxie had always wanted to kill him, yet Li Xiaobai had not noticed in the slightest.
Forget about resentment; for someone as loyal to the sect as him, Li Xiaobai even felt a bewildering admiration.
If Feng Wuxie knew his true feelings, he might just be angered enough to cough up blood.
In this world, even when one wants to be the bad guy, no one believes it…
