Chapter 272: Returning to the Sect

Chapter 272: Returning to the Sect
Lu Yuanming didn’t have to wait long for a response from the Ten Thousand Swords Sect and the Myriad Dan Sect.

Learning that after the end of the Five Sect Competition, the Evil Cultivators had openly struck out against the three major sects, the two sects had made their stance clear, vowing to clear out the Evil Cultivators’ lair and wipe them out.

Thus, the five great clans formed an alliance and began to actively prepare for the war.

In the blink of an eye, half a year had passed, and after half a year of pre-war preparations, the five great clans’ plan to attack the evil cultivator’s lair had been perfected.

This time, each clan will deploy at least one YuanYing cultivator, ten Jindan cultivators and one hundred foundation cultivators, so there are five YuanYing cultivators alone.

This force was enough to uproot the entire evil cultivation force.

The preparation for war over the past few days had made the atmosphere of Easy Sect much more austere.

On the practice field of Thousand Machine Peak, Yue Yanru swept her gaze over the twelve Foundation Establishment cultivators in front of her, and sighed softly in her heart.

Half a year had passed, and none of the four disciples who had gone to participate in the Five Sect Competition and disappeared after being sneak attacked by evil cultivators had returned.

It was thought that nine times out of ten, they had met with misfortune.

And among these four people, her newly accepted disciple Xu Chuniang …… is among them.

At the thought of this, the bottom of Yue Yanru’s eyes flashed with the color of sadness.

So excellent disciple, originally had great hope to inherit her mantle, but hate that evil cultivator ……

The more Yanru eyes turn cold, this go to clear the evil cultivators, bound to a not stay, for the disciple revenge snow hate.

She retracted her gaze, her expression cold and solemn, “Thousand Machine Peak disciples listen to the order, follow me together to the main peak, with the YuanYing Taishang Elder and the Patriarch to meet.”

“Yes!”

The Foundation Establishment disciples answered one after another, following Yue Yanru closely behind them as they headed to the main peak.

An hour later, a huge warship departed from the Easy Sect, heading towards the distance at an extremely fast speed.

In a mountain range not far from Easy Sect, a short and fat female cultivator with a mediocre face suddenly raised her head and looked towards the southwest.

She then saw a huge warship crossing the sky, splitting the clouds in the sky into two halves.

This short and fat female cultivator was no one else but Xu Chuniang, who had used the Bone Shrinking Easy Qigong.

Watching the battleship disappear into the sky, her brows furrowed slightly in thought.

This kind of battleship would only be mobilized by the sect when a major battle occurred.

Was something going on during these months that she was not in the sect?
Or was the sect’s move related to the siege of evil cultivators they had encountered earlier?

Xu Chuniang suppressed the thoughts in her mind and sped up to fly towards the Easy Sect, it was better to rush back to the sect first.

A few hours later, the northern gate of the Easy Sect was close at hand.

Xu Chuniang used her Bone Shrinking Qi Gong to restore her original appearance, and went forward to hand over her disciple token.

After the disciple guarding the gate verified it, he respectfully returned the token with a look of excitement in his eyes.

“Great, Uncle Xu is back, I knew Uncle Xu was still alive!”

He calmed down a little and spoke extremely fast.

“News came out from the inner sect that you disappeared in an ambush by an evil cultivator, and there has been no news of you in the past half a year, and many people said that you had died.

But I don’t believe it, Uncle Xu is the pride of our outer sect disciples, how could he be easily killed by an evil cultivator!”

Another disciple was equally excited to see Xu Chuniang return safely.

“That’s right, I believe that Uncle Xu only encountered trouble and temporarily failed to return to the sect, so I purposely took on the commissioned task of guarding the north gate, and I didn’t expect to actually wait for Uncle Xu to return!”

“The other fellow sect members would definitely be very happy if they learned of this news. I really want to tell this news now.” Learning that the two had purposely taken on the commission in order to be the first to wait back for themselves, Xu Chuniang’s always composed mood became turbulent and undulating.

She was dedicated to cultivation and was accustomed to being alone, and apart from her master and a handful of others, the rest of them were hard to get into her eyes.

But these disciples, who had never met her before, were concerned about her safety and looked forward to her early and safe return.

She smiled faintly and explained a few words towards the two.

“After I killed the evil cultivator who was chasing me, I took some detours to avoid trouble, which is why I rushed back today.”

“I see, I heard that those evil cultivators who participated in the siege were at least mid Foundation Establishment cultivators… Uncle Xu’s Foundation Establishment was less than four years ago, so he should still be at the early Foundation Establishment stage… He was actually able to kill a mid Foundation Establishment cultivator back, so powerful!”

“Of course, this is Uncle Xu ah, with his own strength to make the sect open the hidden scripture pavilion and small zephyr realm to the outer disciples, can cause the sect to pay so much attention to Uncle Xu, how can the strength be poor?”

Seeing that the two had a tendency to continue boasting, Xu Chuniang hurriedly coughed lightly to change the topic.

“On my way back just now, I saw that the sect had deployed warships, has something big happened recently?”

“Uncle Xu you didn’t come back and didn’t know, the five major clans decided to join forces to go to the evil cultivator’s lair and clear out the evil cultivators, even the YuanYing Taishang Elders have been alarmed.”

“This operation, led by a total of five YuanYing Elders, is bound to decimate the evil cultivators. By the way, Uncle Xu’s master, Elder Yue, is also on the list of those going to war. It’s a pity that her elder, didn’t get to see you return.”

Xu Chuniang pondered, it seemed that the five great clans were determined to uproot the evil cultivator forces this time.

She was still a step late in coming back, or else she would have been able to participate in this operation.

After bidding farewell to the two disciples, Xu Chuniang sent her sword towards the main peak.

After killing the cultivator holding the black streamer, she obtained a jade slip that recorded the detailed information of the five great sects in his storage ring.

Being able to obtain such detailed information meant that within the five great sects, there were people of evil cultivation ambushing them.

This was a matter of great importance and must be reported to the sect at the first opportunity.

After arriving at the main peak, Xu Chuniang clearly felt that there was an unusual atmosphere from the usual.

The disciples’ faces were solemn and hurried, clearly affected by the great war.

She entered the main peak, and after explaining her identity and intentions towards the Foundation Establishment Steward on duty, she waited quietly on the side.

After an incense stick was burnt, Yue Ling Zheng hurriedly arrived.

While the Patriarch was away at war, the large and small matters within the clan fell on him, the Vice Patriarch.

He wore a happy face, ”Chuniang, you’re really back, great! The two evil cultivators who were chasing you at that time, but they had late stage Foundation Establishment cultivation …… your Master and the Patriarch, they will be very happy when they learn of this news.”

Xu Chuniang smiled faintly, “To be cautious, I took a long detour, so it took me more time to make it back, letting Uncle Yue worry.”

Yue Lingzheng shook his head slightly.

“It’s good that you returned safely, at that time with you disappeared, a total of four disciples, now you came back, they are still nowhere to be found ……

Alas, just don’t talk about this. Hearing people say, you have important things to report to me?”

Xu Chuniang’s face was solemn, “At this time, it concerns the evil cultivators, it is very important, it is best to not let too many people know about it.”

Yue Lingzheng understood, dismissed the disciples on duty and set up a boundary.

“What exactly is the matter, you can say it now.”

Thanks to Dao Friends Zhang Moumou and Ajia Won’t Die for their rewards, as well as the support of our friends.
