607: Chapter 607: The Crisis of the Taiyi Sect 607: Chapter 607: The Crisis of the Taiyi Sect Yuan’er did not ask Bai Xiaofan what he was going to do, nor did she seem to want to ask.
After all, she only needed to do her best to complete the tasks Bai Xiaofan assigned to her with all her effort.
Bai Xiaofan patted Yuan’er’s little head and turned to walk out of the yard.
Upon exiting the doorway and walking about thirty or forty meters to the right, a figure appeared in front of Bai Xiaofan.
Clothed in a black robe, with traces of fresh blood seeping from his left arm and a complexion so pale he looked almost ghostly.
“What happened to you?
With the cultivation of the Nascent Soul Stage, how did you get injured like this!”
Looking at the person in front of him, Bai Xiaofan asked, puzzled.
“Mr.
Bai, please help our Taiyi Sect get through this difficult time!”
Shen Yi said to Bai Xiaofan feebly, as if he might collapse at any moment.
Bai Xiaofan frowned slightly, held Shen Yi with one hand, and led him aside, taking out a pill and administering it to him.
“Start by telling me what happened?”
After taking the pill and smoothing out his breath somewhat, Shen Yi began to recount what had happened to Bai Xiaofan.
It turned out that after Taiyi Zhenren returned to the Taiyi Sect, he transferred all his life’s cultivation to Shen Yi, along with that longsword and the position of Sect Leader of the Taiyi Sect.
However, during Shen Yi’s retreat to assimilate the cultivation, she was disturbed by a fellow sect disciple, resulting in a great injury and a backlash.
The disciple then, worried that Shen Yi and others would take their anger out on him or kill him to silence him, actually betrayed and fled the sect.
Shen Yi hurriedly sent people to pursue and kill the deserter, but they failed to catch him.
Shortly thereafter, within a few days, the Myriad Poison Sect and the Five-Star Sect sent invitations.
The message was simple; they would send disciples to visit the mountain in a short while.
It was ostensibly to allow their disciples to gain more experience and spar with each other,
But in reality, it was to see if Taiyi Zhenren had truly passed away.
If that were the case, then these two sects, along with some others, would definitely seize the opportunity to exterminate their Taiyi Sect.
Just last night, an expert from the Five-Star Sect sneaked into the Taiyi Sect.
Fortunately, a patrolling disciple discovered him in time, and Shen Yi, leading Ye Ling and others, fought with all their might and managed to kill all the intruders.
However, while Shen Yi was out seeking alliances from other sects for support, she was ambushed by disciples of the Five-Star Sect who had been lying in wait.
Facing the Five-Star Formation of the Five-Star Sect disciples, Shen Yi exerted all her strength and barely managed to escape with severe injuries.
Remembering Taiyi Zhenren’s words before he passed away, that if the Taiyi Sect ever encountered trouble, she could try to seek out Bai Xiaofan in Nanjiang City,
She headed straight there.
After listening to Shen Yi’s account, Bai Xiaofan fell silent.
He was not afraid of the disciples from these two sects; at most, their cultivation was no better than that of Xiao Mei, the foolish woman.
But when it came to the elders or the Sect Leaders of these two sects, Bai Xiaofan wasn’t sure he could win!
Yet thinking of the promise he once made to Taiyi Zhenren, that he would do his best to help the Taiyi Sect through difficult times,
“Take me to your sect.
However, I can’t guarantee that I will be able to protect your Taiyi Sect.
I can only say I will do my utmost to ensure the lives of your Taiyi Sect disciples!”
Bai Xiaofan said earnestly to Shen Yi beside him, candidly expressing his thoughts.
“Then let’s go now, there’s only one day left until the day they said they’d come to challenge us!”
Shen Yi nodded her head, understanding that she was putting Bai Xiaofan in a difficult position.
But he was still thinking that if the elder who came with the other party had some decency and chose not to join the battle personally, they could let Bai Xiaofan defeat those disciples who came to challenge.
After all, with her current situation, it was impossible for her to take on consecutive battles.
Under the lead of Shen Yi, the two of them hurried towards the west.
Both of their speeds were very fast, not at all slower than the speed of an average car.
When it was nearing noon, they entered a large mountain on the border between Jiang Province and Su Province.
This mountain was seldom frequented by people on regular days.
As they walked deeper, Bai Xiaofan felt that the Yuan force around was slightly stronger than outside.
This must be the reason why these sects chose to establish their foundations here.
Indeed, after traveling for another ten or so kilometers, a majestic great hall appeared in front of them.
In front of the great hall, there were three large characters emitting an imposing aura.
Taiyi Sect!
However, the two of them were not in the mood to appreciate the dignity of these three characters.
Because the gates of the Taiyi Sect were wide open, and in front of the gates, there were a few injured people who dressed like disciples of Taiyi Sect.
The Taiyi Sect had been attacked!
And at this time inside the Taiyi Sect, just as the two had guessed, Ye Ling and the other Taiyi Sect disciples had all been gathered together.
Opposite them stood two groups of people dressed differently.
“Xiao Mei, Liang Chao, what is the meaning of this?
You actually breached our Taiyi Sect’s Mountain Protection Array, do you really think Taiyi Sect is afraid of you Wan Poison Sect and Five Star Sect?”
Ye Ling held a longsword in her hand and looked at the two groups of people in front of her, loudly questioning them.
“Call out your master, the true person of Taiyi, I came here myself.
Does he still want to keep hiding from me and refuse to see me?”
The elder leading the Five Star Sect, who was the Liang Chao mentioned by Ye Ling, had his hands behind his back and spoke to Ye Ling.
“Hurry up, with just you junior disciples, you’re not qualified to speak to me and my senior brother!”
A man standing beside Liang Chao arrogantly waved his hand after hearing Ye Ling’s words, showing complete disregard for Ye Ling and all the other disciples of Taiyi Sect.
This man was Liang Cheng, Liang Chao’s blood brother.
One was the second elder of the Five Star Sect, and the other was the third elder.
Their statuses were also very esteemed!
“Just the two of you think you deserve to meet our Sect Leader, isn’t that overestimating yourselves?”
Just then, two old men dressed in Taoist robes stepped out from behind Ye Ling and her group and came forward, speaking to Liang Chao and Liang Cheng.
“Elder Liu Yang, Elder Guan Hui, how have you returned?”
Ye Ling looked at the two elders who appeared, asking in confusion.
“Now is not the time to discuss this, Taiyi Sect is not a sect that anyone can bully!”
Liu Yang didn’t answer Ye Ling’s question but said in a deep voice.
“Heh, I thought it was who?
It turns out to be the grand elder and the second elder of the Taiyi Sect.
Oh, such arrogant tones!”
Liang Cheng looked at the two men in front of him and scoffed in disdain.
These people were all from the same era, so naturally, they knew each other.
And precisely because they knew each other, Liang Cheng didn’t take Liu Yang and Guan Hui seriously at all.
