Chapter 67: Conspiracy
Seven Star Sect.
The great elder swept away everything on the table in front of him and slapped the table. The wood instantly turned into powder.
"The Emperor Immortal Sect is really good..."
The great elder gritted his teeth tightly, wishing he could chew the bones of the person he was calling into pieces.
"Master, don't be angry."
Mu Shaobai advised from the side.
Not to mention that it was okay, but the great elder immediately broke out as soon as he persuaded him.
"I asked you to investigate the Emperor Immortal Sect a long time ago. Why didn't you investigate the Enlightenment Monument?"
Mu Shaobai's face immediately turned pale.
He did go to investigate at the beginning, and found that the Earth Immortal Sect only had so many scattered people, not to mention any treasures, not even a complete place to live.
Where can he go to find treasure?
Jin Xingchen, who was next to him, saw this and quickly came out to rescue him.
"Master, if the Emperor Immortal Sect has the Enlightenment Stone, it is still possible. After all, it is the secret treasure of the Xiao family. How can it be possible if it is anything else! The Emperor Immortal Sect has always been extremely poor!"
The great elder also felt that it made sense after hearing this.
"You are right. If this treasure had been available a long time ago, they must have taken it out. Now taking advantage of the false reputation of being the first in the competition, coupled with this exaggerated publicity, they are just trying to recruit more disciples!"
When Mu Shaobai heard this, he suddenly had an epiphany.
"Master, we can take this opportunity to make the Emperor Immortal Sect lose face!"
"What's the meaning?"
"This Enlightenment Monument is just a gimmick for their Emperor Immortal Sect. In this case, we will prevent him from getting off the stage. Who will remember that the Emperor Immortal Sect came first in the competition? I'm afraid they will only remember that they are villains who humiliated Tianyun Province!"
When Mu Shaobai said this, his expression was gloomy.
When the great elder heard this idea, he thought it was very good.
"In that case, I'll leave this matter to you. The God Immortal Sect has disgraced us in the competition. This time, I will make sure it is completely disgraced from the inside out!"
"Master, don't worry! Disciples will do their best!"
Perhaps it was this well-behaved appearance that made the great elder very satisfied.
"Shaobai, don't worry. If this matter is handled well, you will be my official disciple of the Seven Star Sect. As for the past, everything will be forgotten!"
"Shaobai will definitely live up to Master's high expectations!"
Mu Shaobai looked excited and eager to try.
Tianjian Sect.
Situ Changjian sat on the high platform, examining Jiang Shenyu below.
"What did you say?"
"The Emperor Immortal Sect is recruiting more disciples recently, and many sects have passed by. I wonder if we should make a move!"
Jiang Shenyu reported carefully.
Before the competition, he admitted that he looked down on the Emperor Immortal Sect.
But the final result was unexpected. There were only a few people, but all the disciples excelled.
Take the leader in one fell swoop.
He even defeated the Seven Star Sect, which is a unique thing!
"Of course I want to go. The Emperor Immortal Sect ranks first in the competition this time. We still need help from each other in the secret realm. One friend is better than one more enemy!"
Situ Changjian said earnestly.
"If there is an opportunity in the future, I must form a good relationship with the disciples of the Emperor Immortal Sect. If it is not necessary, it is best not to go with them."
"Master, don't worry. Disciple understands. Let's prepare gifts now!"
Jiang Shenyu was about to retreat as he spoke. What suddenly occurred to his mind?
"Master, someone from the Emperor Immortal Sect once said that there is a monument to enlightenment that is bigger than the one from the Seven Star Sect. Is it true or not?"
"Enlightenment Monument?"
Hearing this, Situ Changjian's eyebrows wrinkled.
"I remember that the Xiao family once had an Enlightenment Stone. How could the Emperor Immortal Sect ever have an Enlightenment Monument? If so, how could he be in such a miserable state now!"
There was anger in his tone, and he was obviously very dissatisfied with this matter.
It would be fine just to recruit disciples. Using such a gimmick would only give other sect disciples more excuses.
"Hey... Leader Su looks so smart, why is he so confused! If he comes up with such lies at this juncture, where will this put the other sects in Tianyun Continent?"
Jiang Shenyu looked at his master carefully.
"Then we...are we still going?"
"Where are we going? I thought I was a clear-headed person, but I didn't expect to be so confused at this juncture! I thought I had overestimated how far the Emperor Immortal Sect could go!"
Situ Changjian said with a look of regret.
Jiang Shenyu's face also rarely darkened.
Master had complimented the Emperor Immortal Sect so much before, why did he not believe them now in a blink of an eye.
He couldn't understand it, let alone didn't want to understand it. Anyway, he would do whatever the master asked him to do.
Ghosts build caves and destroy blood palaces.
Normally, the ghost boss would sit on the high platform, but now it was Mingli who was sitting on the main seat.
The green little ghost behind him stuck out his green tongue, which was particularly scary.
"Your Excellency, although we failed to take first place in this competition, fortunately we were able to enter the secret realm in time."
The ghost boss was flattering, and his ugly face was really annoying to look at.
Mingli smiled, ignored it, and asked himself.
"Is there any recent news from the Emperor Immortal Sect?"
"Reporting to your Excellency. They seem to be preparing to recruit disciples when they go out. There will be a grand meeting in a few days. I think many sects will come out to congratulate!"
Ghost Lao San hid nearby and cowered, and told the news he had received in one breath.
Mingli closed his eyes slightly after hearing this, as if he was thinking about something.
After a long while, he finally spoke.
"Since there is such a grand event, let's go and join in the fun!"
As soon as these words came out, Ghost Boss's face suddenly changed.
No matter what, there is still a blood feud between their Ghost Cultivation Cave and the Emperor Immortal Sect.
The seventh and eighth brothers died at the hands of Su Ming.
And Xiao Yunyi's parents also died in their Ghost Cultivation Cave.
So there is no obvious evidence, but everyone knows these little things.
Going there at this juncture is obviously asking for trouble.
It is even possible that they will directly clash with them before going to the secret realm.
This is not worth it no matter how you calculate it.
When Ming Li heard this, his face changed rapidly.
"What? My words are useless, right?"
As the voice fell, an invisible pressure pressed directly against Ghost Boss.
Ghost Boss felt that the airflow in his body was contracted, and the whole person was pressed to the ground by this strong force and could not move.
"No... no... how could it be? Whatever you say is what it is!"
Ghost Boss replied tremblingly, and finally compromised.
Ming Li's strength is unfathomable, and it is not appropriate to fight with him at this juncture.
After hearing what he wanted to hear, Ming Li put away the things he released.
Shadow Island, Wuji Pavilion.
Hua Wuque still looked drunk.
After returning from the competition, he has been maintaining his normal state.
Suddenly, a shadow fell from the beam and knelt in front of him.
"Young Master, I have something to report!"
Hua Wuque raised his eyes, looking uninterested.
"If it is related to the Emperor Immortal Sect, tell me, if not, get out!"
"Report to the young master, the Emperor Immortal Sect will recruit disciples in a few days, I wonder if the young master will go?"
