"Flatten the Chen Family, avenge the blood feud!"

In an instant.

The unified shouts of the Tie Sect resounded throughout the entire villa district.

Seeing this.

The Great Elder’s face was filled with a satisfied expression, he nodded and grinned, saying: "Very good, as long as our Tie Sect can unite as one, like a single rope, what does today’s setback matter? What does a severe blow matter? We can also rise again, also return to the peak, that day is not far off!"

"From now on, all of us in the Tie Sect will obey the Great Elder’s orders entirely, if the Great Elder tells us to go east, we will definitely not go west, if the Great Elder tells us to die, we will definitely not cling to life!"

"That’s right, we are determined to swear loyalty to the Great Elder, follow the Great Elder, and return all the humiliation suffered today!"

"Long live the Great Elder!"

...

The people of the Tie Sect roared passionately.

Seeing this.

The Great Elder breathed a slight sigh of relief.

He feared that after this battle.

The Tie Sect suffered such a severe blow.

If people can no longer be gathered, the Tie Sect would truly be doomed.

But now it seems.

Fortunately.

The people’s hearts are still there.

Even if some have scattered.

They have been gathered back by him.

If that’s the case.

The Tie Sect can still be saved.

Still have the hope of rising again.

This reassured the Great Elder.

"Alright, next, everyone must follow my orders, the first step we will take is to gather our forces and rebuild the Tie Sect headquarters, this shouldn’t be a problem for us, once this is sorted out, we’ll move on to the next step, recruiting strong people, does anyone have any objections to my arrangements?"

The Great Elder looked at the people of the Tie Sect and said.

"We will all follow the Great Elder’s arrangements!"

The crowd responded in unison.

"Very good, since there are no objections, let’s all disperse and arrange your work, we must get the Tie Sect running again as soon as possible, shake off the decline, only then can we get closer to the day of revenge!"

The Great Elder said.

"Yes!"

The crowd responded in unison.

They then prepared to leave.

"Tsk tsk tsk, I just left for one night, how did your Tie Sect become like this? Really all show and no substance, what trash, what garbage! How can you collaborate with me like this?"

However, at this moment, an extremely untimely mocking voice rang out.

Upon hearing these words.

The people of the Tie Sect, including the Great Elder, were instantly enraged.

Bear in mind.

The Tie Sect was currently in disarray, suffering heavy losses.

Their mood was already bad, each filled with immense indignation.

And now, someone before their eyes was mocking the Tie Sect like this.

This made each of them explode, unable to tolerate it, the long-suppressed anger in their hearts erupted at once.

In an instant.

Everyone turned their heads towards the direction the voice came from.

A young man wearing a black Daoist hat and black Daoist robe was walking towards them with a smile.

In the young man’s hand, he held a white feather fan, gently swaying it, appearing somewhat like an immortal.

Upon seeing this person.

Most of the Tie Sect members were filled with rage, but at this moment, they suddenly silenced.

Because many of them had seen this young man before.

This young man was none other than Zhuge Wenqing, who was treated courteously even by Sect Leader Han Tieshan during the high-level meeting at the Tie Sect last night.

And last night’s ambush was a strategy left behind by Zhuge Wenqing for Han Tieshan before he departed.

Because he predicted that the Chen Family might launch a surprise attack overnight.

So he advised Han Tieshan to prepare early.

Unfortunately, his prediction was quite accurate.

But he overestimated the strength of the Tie Sect.

So much so that not only did the Chen Family succeed in their surprise attack under the leadership of Chen Feng, they also took away a large number of Tie Sect strongmen, including Han Tieshan’s life.

This point was beyond Zhuge Wenqing’s expectation.

"Who are you? Why do you humiliate our Tie Sect like this? Aren’t you afraid of dying?"

The Great Elder glared at Zhuge Wenqing with icy cold eyes, his face gloomy, his tone extremely cold.

Although many high-level members of the Tie Sect recognized Zhuge Wenqing.

The Great Elder did not.

Because before last night’s great war, the Great Elder, along with the Second Elder and Third Elder, were in seclusion.

At the last critical moment.

It was Han Tieshan who crushed the Jade Pendant, forcibly summoning the three of them.

Therefore, the Great Elder was not familiar with Zhuge Wenqing.

"You are the strongest in the Tie Sect, aren’t you? Heavenly Rank Perfection, not bad, not bad, this strength is barely worth seeing!"

Zhuge Wenqing lightly shook his feather fan, sizing up the Great Elder, speaking calmly.

His words.

Caused everyone present to gasp audibly.

Heavenly Rank Perfection!

That is Heavenly Rank Perfection!

Which in the Ancient Martial World qualifies as a top-tier expert.

A pinnacle existence.

No matter where you go, such an expert is respected and admired.

But in Zhuge Wenqing’s words.

It became barely worth seeing.

How arrogant can he be?

Or does he have sufficient strength or background to disregard a Heavenly Rank Perfection expert?

Thinking of this.

Everyone gasped again.

If that’s true, this Zhuge Wenqing is truly terrifying!

The Great Elder’s face grew increasingly gloomy.

He examined Zhuge Wenqing from head to toe.

Judging from the aura.

There was no trace of True Qi Fluctuation within Zhuge Wenqing’s body.

Such a situation.

Two possibilities exist.

One, Zhuge Wenqing is an ordinary person.

Two, his strength far exceeds Heavenly Rank Perfection, so when he intentionally hides his aura, the Heavenly Rank Perfection Great Elder cannot sense it.

Compared to these two possibilities.

The Great Elder is more inclined to believe the first.

Because the person before him, Zhuge Wenqing, appears to be in his twenties, at most not over thirty.

How could someone of such age have a realm that surpasses Heavenly Rank Perfection?

If it were during the prosperous ancient era, when Earth’s Spiritual Energy was abundant.

Perhaps there would be a slim possibility.

But now, in this End of Dharma Era, it’s impossible.

Therefore.

The Great Elder concluded that this Zhuge Wenqing must be an ordinary person.

However.

What gives an ordinary person the courage to look down on the Tie Sect, to disregard a Heavenly Rank Perfection expert such as himself?

Doesn’t he fear being slapped to death by him?

Or perhaps, does he have some reliance?

Thinking of this.

The Great Elder pondered deeply in his heart, squinted his eyes, took a deep breath, then looked at Zhuge Wenqing and asked solemnly: "Young man, who exactly are you?"
