The Sect Leader Has Taken in a New Female Disciple-Chapter 922 - 291: Sis, Let Me Explain—It’s Really Not What You Think (6k)_2

"They probably also realize that it's not the right time to confront us head-on, so they're trying to avoid us for now."

Mo Xingjian analyzed after checking the positions of the sects that had been destroyed.

"Two junior brothers, compile a list of those sects that have paid the Spirit Stones. Send twenty disciples from our Taiqing Sect to each sect."

"But don't enter the sect; just station them outside the mountain gate and raise our Taiqing Sect flag."

"If the Golden Thunder Sect is wise, they'll know that these places are now under the protection of our Taiqing Sect."

"If they still don't care, then they shouldn't blame us for being ruthless!"

Upon hearing Mo Xingjian's command, the two answered in unison, accepting the order.

This strategy could be said to kill three birds with one stone: it intimidates the Golden Thunder Sect, solidifies the allegiance of the small sects, and dispels rumors effortlessly.

It might also attract more forces to compete to pay tribute.

The two quickly took the Teleportation Array and headed straight for the Phecda Sect.

Then, Mo Xingjian turned his attention to the always silent Zhou Qing: "You look like you have something to say but are holding back, do you have doubts?"

"I am indeed confused." Zhou Qing stepped forward half a step, his expression solemn, "Those destroyed sects had anywhere from ten thousand to several hundred thousand disciples; it was clearly not the work of dried corpses."

"With such a massive amount of Essence Blood being consumed, I worry about that Lei Wuji—"

Hearing Zhou Qing's words, Mo Xingjian also nodded gravely.

"Although Lei Wuji fell into a trap, he seized this opportunity to break through to Divinity Transformation Realm Perfection."

"And now the Golden Thunder Sect is helping him slaughter the innocent. As your teacher, I'm worried that they might have stumbled upon some shortcut."

At this point, Mo Xingjian's gaze turned suddenly cold: "For now, we can keep to ourselves, but if this is allowed to continue, this fire will eventually reach the Taiqing Sect."

Zhou Qing deeply agreed.

Even though there are countless cities left, most are inhabited by ordinary people.

Moreover, the Golden Thunder Sect wouldn't dare touch the foundation of the Dynasty, or else the trouble to follow would be enormous.

Only sects far from bustling areas would be their targets for wanton slaughter.

"Forget it, you don't need to worry about these things. When your uncle returns, we'll deliberate on it further." Mo Xingjian patted Zhou Qing on the shoulder.

Zhou Qing thought for a moment, then asked his master for the names of the destroyed sects and went to find Shen Huangmao.

While Zhou Qing was in seclusion, Shen Huangmao made another trip to the Gobi desert cave, originally hoping to find some remaining corpse fluid, but to no avail.

In fact, Zhou Qing felt a bit guilty about this.

After all, it was Shen who helped him to climb to the position of Buddha Son in the first place.

Moreover, Sheng Huangma's long journey to deliver those Wood Attribute Spirit Stones helped him understand the third strand of the Phoenix Dao Pattern.

When he reached the guest residence area, he unexpectedly heard Lu Yaoyao's clear laughter from inside.

Zhou Qing paused in his steps, curious.

Since when were these two so familiar with each other?

Upon entering, he saw Shen Yunzhou vividly gesturing about something in the pavilion in the middle of the lake, while Lu Yaoyao was laughing so hard she couldn't straighten up, tears welling up in her eyes.

"There's a lot more of my sister's embarrassing stories, you wouldn't believe it, once I sneaked to my grandpa's place, originally intending to... Oh, Zhou—"

Seeing Zhou Qing appear, Shen Yunzhou waved enthusiastically.

Lu Yaoyao quickly stood up, tears of laughter still in her eyes: "Senior Brother Zhou, come over! You wouldn't believe how funny Sister Shen was as a child!"

Zhou Qing looked at Shen Huangmao helplessly, "You've completely exposed your sister's old secrets. Be careful, someday when she finds out, she'll string you up and lock you in the little black house again."

But soon, his expression suddenly became serious as he looked behind the two, cupping his fist in salute: "Senior Shen Hanyi, when did you arrive? You didn't announce yourself."

Upon hearing this, Shen Huangmao's smile froze, his Adam's apple bobbed violently, and he turned his head stiffly, trembling slightly at the knees.

"Sister, let me explain... things aren't what you think..."

But when he turned around, he found there wasn't even a hair behind him.

Zhou Qing, however, couldn't help but burst into hearty laughter, pointing at Shen Yunzhou, trembling: "Brother Shen! With such courage, you dare gossip about your sister behind her back?"

Lu Yaoyao also burst into laughter, yet felt this behavior was not quite right.

After all, she had proactively sought out the Third Mother, so she quickly covered her mouth, though her shoulders still shook slightly with suppressed laughter.

Shen Yunzhou's face turned beet red, filled with embarrassment, and he immediately put his hands on his hips, puffed out his chest, and gave a heavy snort through his nose.

"I would know if my sister came or not. Earlier I was just making a joke to cheer up Little Sister Lu."

Shen Yunzhou stubbornly defended himself, but his eyes darted about when he spoke, unable to meet Zhou Qing's half-smiling gaze directly.

"Who am I? I am the Shitian Emperor, a presence that crushes all enemies!"

"I couldn't beat my sister when I was young, now let her suppress her cultivation to the Divinity Transformation Realm and try!"

Shen Yunzhou shouted with a flushed face!

Zhou Qing said, "I believe you; I've seen your sister likes to wear white clothes, and when your realm unfolds, splashing a few yellow spots on her, she'd surely flee in panic."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yunzhou shivered.

Because he had really tried it.

But the result was he was almost beaten to a pulp and locked in the little black house for two whole years.

Seeing Shen Yunzhou's face flush so red it seemed about to smoke, Zhou Qing cleared his throat to change the subject: "Alright, alright, stop dawdling, come with me to a place!"

"Where to?" Shen Yunzhou, not yet recovered from the embarrassment, asked instinctively.

Zhou Qing tossed the Imaging Stone to him, saying, "A total of six sects were extinguished; it might be of help to you!"
